Chapter 587 Weird Town
This town looked completely normal from the outside. Yan Li and Mo Cheng looked at each other and walked into the town.
They seemed very relaxed, but in fact they were very alert from the moment they entered the town.
After entering the town, Yan Li discovered that the pedestrians coming and going in the town were all very strong.
Some even seem unfathomable.
It’s just strange that the things sold on the streets of this small town are all very low-quality, whether it’s medicinal herbs or various daily necessities.
Even some of the food seemed very rough.
The clothes of the people walking in the town were all very rough and old, but some children or young people were wearing new clothes.
Yan Li took a closer look and found that those new clothes were exactly the ones purchased by Dugu Ying before.
So Yan Li was very sure that Dugu Ying and the others must have been here, and something happened in this town.
The attire of Yan Li and the other person seemed out of place in this small town, and people in the town would always secretly glance at them from time to time.
Yan Li saw vigilance in their eyes.
alert?
Did they know that the two of them came here for Dugu Ying and the others, and were feeling guilty?
But Dugu Ying has been helping them all the time, so they should have no reason to harm her.
Yan Li and his friends found an inn and stayed there as if nothing had happened.
I didn't expect there was an inn in such a poor town.
Yan Li and the others walked into the inn and found the environment inside to be quite good.
"Dear guests, are you planning to have dinner or stay in the hotel?" When Yan Li and his friends walked in, the shopkeeper came up to them warmly.
"Shopkeeper, my uncle and I happened to pass by here accidentally. Why do we feel that your town is a little different?" Yan Li looked at the shopkeeper with puzzled eyes.
Her naive look instantly made the shopkeeper relax his guard.
"Girl, our place is called Tianpin Town, which means it is destined to be poor." The shopkeeper explained with a smile.
"Shopkeeper, you are joking. No one is destined to be poor. Isn't wealth created by one's own hands?" Yan Li was puzzled.
"Girl, our town is different from other places. You should take a night's rest and leave quickly tomorrow to avoid getting into trouble." Perhaps because he saw Yan Li's innocent look, the shopkeeper kindly advised her.
"Puchi... Shopkeeper, you are really humorous. We have felt that the people in this town are simple and honest along the way. Do you rarely go out and rarely see people from outside? That's why you are so curious about us?" Yan Li said with a smile.
"We really haven't been outside." The shopkeeper said this with a hint of sadness in his eyes.
"Haven't you been out?" Yan Li grasped the key point of the shopkeeper's words.
"Girls, what would you like to eat?" the shopkeeper changed the subject directly.
"Please bring out all your signature dishes. We are hungry." Yan Li said, touching his stomach.
"Girl, in a small town, it's best not to show off your wealth." The shopkeeper advised again.
Yan Li: ...
It seems that this shopkeeper is quite conscientious.
"I understand. When you are out, you should not show off your wealth. I know this. We don't have much money anyway." Yan Li nodded with a smile.
The shopkeeper laughed when he heard this.
When I first saw their attire, I thought they must be from wealthy families, but it turns out they weren't.
Can everyone outside the town wear such gorgeous clothes now?
Thinking of this, a trace of desire flashed across the shopkeeper's eyes.
"Please wait a moment, girl. We will serve the food right away." The shopkeeper said and turned to leave.
Yan Li and Mo Cheng looked at each other.
Soon, the waiter brought the food.
When Yan Li saw it, there were only some vegetables and only one meat dish.
There's very little meat in it.
"Girls, it's hard to find meat in our town. This is already rare. I hope you don't despise it." The shopkeeper walked over again and looked at Yan Li and the others.
"It's okay. We rarely eat meat. After all, meat is very expensive." Yan Li smiled and shook her head.
The shopkeeper smiled when he heard this.
Yan Li glanced at the food on the table and only picked up the chopsticks and started eating after confirming that there was no problem.
Seeing that Yan Li and the others had already started eating, the shopkeeper left with a smile.
"Sister, sister, are you from the outside world?" Yan Li was eating when a childish voice sounded beside her.
Yan Li looked towards the source of the sound and saw a little girl with a dirty face looking at her.
"Erya, what are you doing here? Go back and don't disturb the guests while they are eating." Seeing the little girl, the shopkeeper hurried over and said.
"Uncle shopkeeper, I'm hungry." Erya swallowed her saliva as she looked at the food on Yan Li's table.
"Then come with me and I'll serve you some food." The shopkeeper sighed when he heard this.
"Boss, let her eat with us. We can't finish so many dishes anyway." Yan Li said as he handed Erya a pair of chopsticks.
"But Erya is dirty and might affect your meal." The shopkeeper was a little conflicted.
"It doesn't matter. My uncle and I travel outside all year round, and it's like this sometimes." Yan Li smiled and shook her head.
"Erya, why don't you thank the young lady quickly?" The shopkeeper said to Erya after hearing this.
After all, it is not easy to have such a meal in this small town.
"Thank you, sister." Erya immediately thanked Yan Li upon hearing this.
She took the chopsticks handed to her by Yan Li and started to eat voraciously without even sitting down.
Yan Li just watched her eat with a smile.
"Miss, this..." Seeing this, the shopkeeper looked at Yan Li embarrassedly.
"It doesn't matter, she may be starving." Yan Li shook her head.
The shopkeeper kept sighing in his heart that Yan Li was kind-hearted.
Then the shopkeeper sighed and turned around to go back to work.
After wolfing down the food, Erya put down her chopsticks and looked at Yan Li and the others, seeming to hesitate to speak.
"Erya, just say whatever you want to say." Yan Li looked at her with amusement.
Erya looked around and found that no one was paying attention here, so she moved closer to Yan Li and started talking.
"Sister, you'd better leave here quickly. It's very dangerous here." Erya looked at Yan Li with worry in her eyes.
"Danger?" Yan Li looked at Erya.
"Before, some people sent a lot of good things to our town, but they disappeared after they went to the mayor's house. There was also a sister among them who was very nice to me, but she is gone too. Sister, she is a good person, and you are also a good person. I don't want you to disappear too." Arya said.
Yan Li was shocked when she heard the words. The people Erya was talking about were probably Aunt Ying and the others.
The sister she was referring to should be Wu Xiaoxiao.
"Don't worry, I won't." Yan Li smiled and touched her little head.
"Sister, it's really dangerous. I accidentally heard the mayor and others say that they want to use your blood to break the curse of the town." Arya said with a look of fear on her face.
