Chapter 233: Worship
It's just that she finally remembered where she was, and this sentence was held in her throat and not spoken.
"Ouch, how can you call it a 'thing', take it back. Aunt Li was nervous all of a sudden, "It's good to call it 'Xuan Shuai'." β
"There are so many people who have died, what do you children know!" she shook her head: "Only by worshipping it well will it not condemn us, and we will have a good life in the future." β
"Remembered. Yan Saburo's eyes moved slightly, "Who told you to worship Xuan Shuai, and who reported his name to you?"
"It's all the neighbors telling each other. Aunt Li said, "Chen's mother's son is weak, and he can't adapt to the water and soil when he moves here, so he is so sick that he is delirious, and he can't see it well after inviting many doctors, and the little money in the family is still spent cleanly." Later, Chen's mother worshiped Xuan Shuai, and her son will be fine in three days!"
"So amazing?" Yan Saburo muttered, "In the past three days, have any outsiders come to see her son?"
"I don't know. β
Yan Saburo asked Chen's mother's address, thanked him and left.
After walking more than ten steps, Siya couldn't help but sigh twice: "Worship the plague god!
It's beyond her imagination.
"Isn't it strange?" said Chitose Shi Shiran, "Human beings have encountered floods, and only then have they worshiped the god of mountains and water, and they have seen the power of thunder and lightning, and they have worshiped the god of thunder and lightning." Because he is too weak, he can't even hate himself in the face of force majeure, so he can only pray that the other party will show mercy to his subordinates. This time they worship the plague god, and it is the same. β
The panic and helplessness of human beings in the face of the Great Plague gave birth to the most primitive worship.
"The more the plague spreads, the more people fear the plague god, the more incense and wish power it receives, and the stronger its own strength becomes. Chitose sighed, "The plague god has already begun to collect wishing power." β
She also had some hot eyes.
In this world, all she can use is willingness, but the source is single and limited. Maybe the plague god's method is worth learning from?
She was using her brain here, and Silk Bud had already changed color and said, "Then you have to find it quickly, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable." β
"First of all, you have to identify its host. Chitose unceremoniously poured cold water on her, "The refugees who escaped from the Thousand Food Country may be worshipping the plague god everywhere, and you're not sure that your brother is in Chunming City, right?"
The search over the next few days almost proved Chitose's words:
All the teenagers surnamed Lu in Hongyanfei's book have been verified, and Siya all shakes their headsβno.
"Either you're in the wrong place, the plague god isn't in Chunming City. Chitose was also a little annoyed that he hadn't completed the wooden bell task for several days, "Or, you've missed some important clues!"
Siya turned her head suddenly, and protested: "He must be here!"
She used the anchor culture as a human form, but at this time, the skin of her neck and arms loomed scales, obviously because of the violent fluctuations in her emotions, which affected the effect of the anchor text, and almost appeared in her original form.
The camouflage of the anchor can last for a day, but it is not stable and can be easily punctured.
Everyone was unaware that she suddenly became angry, and they all stopped at once. Everyone hasn't walked out of the civilian area yet, and there are still people coming and going nearby, how can she break it if she shows her original form here?
"Keep your emotions in check. Chitose squinted at her, "How do you know?"
"I can feel it!" Siya took a light breath, and the flaws in her disguise quickly disappeared.
The group found Chen's mother's house, which was a small bungalow, and the area was not as big as the firewood house in Chunshentang. Yan Saburo knocked on the door, and after a long time, a voice came from inside: "Who?"
Listen to the voice, it's a child.
Aunt Li also said that Chen's mother lost her husband in her early years and has always been dependent on her son. The poor man's child was in charge of the house early, and the child was obviously sensible and vigilant, so he refused to open the door at all, only saying that Chen's mother went to the city to work and would come back in the afternoon.
"I heard that you were sick a few days ago, vomiting and diarrhea?" Yan Saburo asked him through the door panel, but the child inside was silent.
Chitose patted Yan Saburo on the shoulder: "Hey, you asked such questions?" When did he become so clumsy?
Yan Saburo ignored her, and just continued to say to the child behind the door: "I, me too, it's uncomfortable." I want to ask you how you were cured and teach me. Then he coughed twice.
He is only eleven years old, and he still has a child's voice. Chitose saw that he was obviously expressionless, but he could come up with a hesitant and cautious tone, and I really wanted to give him a thumbs up: his acting skills have improved again, huh?
The children behind the door could also hear their peers standing outside, and their vigilance was dispelled slightly, so they whispered: "My grandma took fragrant ash soaked water for me to drink, and it was good to drink it." β
"What did you eat before you got sick?" Yan Saburo said pitifully, "I ate a fish, and it doesn't seem to be fully cooked." β
"I, so do I. The boy thought for a moment, "I only ate fish that day, and it was fish that adults caught from the lake, and it was delicious." β
Lake?
Yan Saburo was slightly stunned, remembering the scene of civilians fishing on the frozen lake. The fish was still alive when it came out of the water, and it didn't take long for it to be frozen alive by the cold wind and cold air, and it must be fresh when it comes here. Besides, there are a lot of people here, and the fresh food enters people's stomachs before it spoils.
This kid can eat a bad stomach, probably because he was unlucky to encounter a sick fish, and his physique is too weak?
But he didn't eat anything from an unknown background, and Yan Saburo no longer took this matter to heart.
The white cat let out a long yawn, not interested. Sure enough, finding and solving the case is not as simple and bloody as it is written in the book, as if all the clues will be sent to the protagonist on their own initiative. It seems that most of the time it is boring and unproductive, and she is tired of it.
She retracted into the bookcase, ready to sleep on Yan Saburo's back. However, they had only walked away a few feet before a man came quickly and knocked on the door a few times: "Xiao Ming, Mother Chen can't come back for the time being, let me bring you a message!"
The child in the house was startled and opened the door suddenly: "Uncle Liu, what's wrong with my mother?"
"I went to Jin's house today to deliver firewood, where there are three floors in the dark land and three floors outside, all of which are lively. I squeezed to the front and saw that it was the government office that was taking people. When Chen's mother saw me before she was taken away, she shouted and asked me to help take care of you. I see, in the next period of time, you will come to my house first. β
The child was so frightened that tears fell.
Yan Sanlang turned his heels and walked back to the man: "Excuse me, which Jin family was taken away?" He faintly felt that something was wrong in his heart, as if he had missed something, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
"As for the one in Cheshui Lane, I heard that it was also a famous family and had a big house, but it was later broken and moved. β
