Chapter 12 The Traveler From Afar
A figure with a tutu came out of the woods, lifted up his cloak, revealing a handsome face.
Bati, who was originally shocked by the sudden sound, turned red when he saw Luo Ying's appearance and became at a loss.
On the contrary, Lina, who was only seven or eight years old, asked loudly: "Who are you? How do you know that the King of Cylindrons does not eat people?"
"A traveler from afar." Luo Qing responded faintly.
Luo Heng did not choose the northern road, which must pass through the Black Rose Mage Tower and was easily stopped by Ryanhardt.
The transformed magic armor was refined by the old lich of Ryanhart. Who knows if he has any way to see through himself? His subordinates, Wright and others, have seen Luo Ying's current face.
I simply crossed the Hengduan Mountains and came to the other side of the mountain. This mountain range is like a natural barrier for ordinary people, but to him it is just a small ridge. It takes a moment to turn over.
Unexpectedly, when I met a crowd, I had just met a crowd and before he could ask for directions, I heard the remarks that destroyed him. When did the King of Steel Bone eat humans? Even in the years when the King of Steel Bone spread across the continent, I had never eaten humans. Immortals don’t eat anything. Why are you eating humans? Who is spreading rumors?
However, the other party was just two little girls, so naturally it was impossible for the source of the rumors. Luo Ying did not blame him and asked instead: "Where is this place?"
Bati's little heart was beating, and his eyes were about to show his little star: "Not only handsome, but also polite. Is he a noble?"
Lina raised her hand and responded: "This is Caiyun Village."
"Oh." The strange name has no meaning. Even if he knows the name, Luo Heng can't figure out where he is. He knows nothing about the geography of this world.
"What's the matter with the trial you just mentioned? Is anyone lynching here?" This is just a village and there is no right to trial. If someone scrutinizes here, it is very likely that lynching is being used.
"They are trying Sister Melissa." Lina said things briskly.
The witch? Resurrection? Rotten corpse?
Luo Qing was stunned when he heard this and asked in disbelief: "Have you ever said Melissa left this village? Can you resurrect a body?"
"It shouldn't be?" Lina said, turning her head hesitantly at Bati.
Batty shook her head, not daring to look at Luo Chu, lowered her head and said, "No, I have known Sister Melissa since I was a child, and I have never seen her leave the village."
Luo Heng couldn't help but become curious: "Oh, that's interesting. Can you take me to your village? I want to visit the village chief and witness this trial by the way."
"Of course, I'll take you there." Lina was excited and was about to jump up. She threw away the basket on the spot and ran in front to lead the way. She had long wanted to go back to see the trial, but Bati had never allowed it. Now she had such a grand excuse to visit the village chief, so how could she still hold back.
Caiyun Village is just under the hillside outside the woods. It is a small village with only thirty or forty families. The residents of the village make a living by grazing. In the grass under the hillside, white sheep dots it.
At the junction of two dirt roads in the village, a trial was underway. Two wooden pillars standing on the ground were tied to two people, one of which was a girl in thick clothes and linen, and a pretty face with a kind of calmness that saw through life and death.
The other pillar tied to it cannot be called a human being. It was a corpse with white and swollen skin, messy hair, and a pair of dead fish eyes. Many places had rotten but struggled and roaring desperately.
If Bati and Lina saw it, they would find that when they were subdued, Seber's body had become much tougher and harder, not wet, and the wound was still leaking out of fluid. He was gradually tougher.
When any corpse witch is first born, it will undergo a resilience process. During this process, the corpse gradually dehydrates, the skin becomes tougher, and the decay is interrupted, and finally becomes a slow-moving zombie with amazing defense.
Seber was buried in the ground for three days before he was dug out and resurrected. His body was far less than the corpse witch who had just died and reincarnated. He seemed to be frightened by his own appearance, and struggled desperately and roared, but his vocal cords and lungs were damaged irreversibly, and he couldn't say anything.
The villagers of Caimin Village were all around, and everyone looked at Seber with fear and whispered.
"Is this really Seber? How did such a beautiful young man in the past become like this?"
"It's all this evil witch who desecrated the bodies and rested on the ground and was dug out by her. She made such a monster."
"You can't say that. Melissa was originally a kind child. She had been dependent on Seber since she was a child. Seber died of illness and made her crazy."
"No matter how reluctant you are, you can't do such a thing. Look, Seber himself was also frightened. Anyone who saw that his body was so rotten like this would be scared to death."
“…”
Hearing the whispers of the villagers, Melissa was not calm. She realized that she had really done something wrong. She refused to let Seber die and tried to resurrect him regardless of his fate. However, she did not expect that the resurrected Seber was not happy, but was frightened when she looked at her rotten body.
He was shocked by the villagers and frightened Seber. Instead of doing this, it would be better to let him rest in peace. Melissa regretted it extremely, but it was already like this. It was too late to regret it. Let yourself use death to calm everyone's anger.
Melissa accepted her fate calmly. Anyway, Seber died, and it would be meaningless to live alone.
Listening to everyone's discussion, the village chief Kru stood up and said loudly: "Have you made a judgment according to your own heart? Now, we will definitely vote to decide the fate of the two sinners."
After pausing for a moment, the village chief Kru said loudly: "First it was Seber, now, if you think he is guilty, please raise your hand."
"guilty."
"guilty."
I raised my arms, and I could hardly see anyone who didn't raise my hand.
"How to deal with him?"
"Burn him to death!"
"Burn him to death! Burn him to death!"
The shouts are uniform.
"Okay, let go of your hands first." Village Chief Kru pressed down with both hands and signaled everyone to put down his arms. After everyone calmed down, he shouted again: "It's time for Melissa. If you think she is guilty, please raise your hand."
After scrubbing, another large piece of arms raised.
"How to deal with her?"
The opinions were mixed. Some said they wanted to burn her to death, some said they wanted to forgive her, and some said they wanted to put her to jail. In the end, it was counted that less than one-third of the people who asked to burn her to death.
