Chapter 589 It’s your own fault
"Erya? I thought she would come early this morning, but she hasn't come yet." Speaking of Erya, the shopkeeper frowned.
"She hasn't come yet? I promised to treat her to pork." Yan Li was a little worried when he heard that.
After all, Erya is a kind child and I don’t want anything to happen to her.
"Boss, where is Erya's home? I want to go see her after breakfast." Yan Li looked at the boss.
"It's in that small, shabby courtyard in the east." The shopkeeper sighed.
Ever since Erya's parents passed away, the already dilapidated courtyard became desolate because no one took care of it.
"Got it. Thank you for letting me know, shopkeeper." Yan Li thanked the shopkeeper.
After breakfast, Yan Li and Mo Cheng left the inn. As soon as they left the inn, they knew someone was watching them in the dark.
But the person has been rescued, so just keep an eye on him. They won’t be able to find out anything.
As soon as Yan Li and the others left the inn, they headed east, asking about Erya's residence as they walked.
Finally found this small, dilapidated and desolate courtyard.
Yan Li and the others stood at the gate of the courtyard and found that it was not closed, so they walked straight in.
"Erya, Erya, are you there?" Yan Li didn't see Erya so she shouted.
"She doesn't seem to be here." Mo Cheng looked around and said.
"Could she have gone out? Maybe she went to the inn and we came to look for her, but we took a different route than her, so we didn't meet her?" Yan Li muttered.
She felt that Erya was just a little girl and no one should target her.
"It's possible, but this child's life is really hard. The dilapidated temple outside the town is better than this house." Mo Cheng sighed.
"Why don't we wait for her here? Maybe she will be back soon." Yan Li said and sat down on a stone in the yard.
Seeing this, Mo Cheng smiled and sat down next to her.
The people who were watching them in the dark found that they were indeed here to look for Arya and were sitting here waiting for her.
They were already certain that the appearance of Yan Li and the others had nothing to do with Dugu Ying and the others, so they all felt relieved.
Since they are waiting for Arya, let them meet her as soon as possible and leave the town quickly to avoid ruining their plans.
So Yan Li and the others waited for a while, and Erya came back.
"Sister, why are you here?" Erya was very surprised to see Yan Li and the others.
"Since we saw you didn't go to the inn, we came to visit your house." Yan Li said with a smile.
She found that there were some differences between Arya and others.
Although she looked very embarrassed yesterday, she looked relaxed.
She looked no different today, but her expression was tense, worried and unnatural.
"Erya, don't you want to eat pork? Come on, follow us back to the inn." Yan Li looked at Erya gently.
"Sister, you guys should leave quickly. It's not suitable to stay here for long." Erya looked very anxious. It was obvious that she really wanted Yan Li and the others to leave as soon as possible.
"You kid, we think this place is pretty good, so we plan to stay for two more days." Yan Li smiled and patted Erya's little head.
In fact, he was observing the reactions of those people in the dark.
When they heard Yan Li actually said that she wanted to stay in the town for two more days, they frowned.
"Sister, you'd better leave quickly. It's not fun here." Erya was also anxious.
Although persuading Nangong Xi and the others to leave was the task assigned to me by those people, I sincerely hoped that Yan Li and the others would leave as soon as possible.
After all, if you stay here you might die.
"Erya, let's go to the inn first. We'll decide whether we should leave immediately later." After Yan Li said that, he pulled Erya and walked out of the yard.
Yan Li and the others returned to the inn.
This time the shopkeeper prepared a lot of meat dishes for them.
Erya was very satisfied with the meal.
"Miss, are you leaving today?" The shopkeeper looked at Yan Li tentatively.
"Erya also said that there is nothing fun here, so we plan to leave later." Yan Li said.
The shopkeeper heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this.
"Erya, you are alone here anyway, why don't you leave with us?" Yan Li said and looked at Erya.
Erya's eyes lit up when she heard that, and the shopkeeper next to her was stunned for a moment.
"Erya, if you are willing, just leave with them." The shopkeeper said with a sigh.
In fact, Erya was not born and raised in this town. She came here later with her parents and settled down there.
Therefore, she was not born in this town and technically does not belong to this town, so she can leave and is not affected by the curse.
"Okay." Erya looked at Yan Li deeply for a few times and nodded in agreement.
So after Yan Li and the others finished their meal, they paid for their stay at the inn and their meals and left the town.
Watching Yan Li and the others disappear at the entrance of the town, the mayor and others hiding in the dark breathed a sigh of relief.
After Yan Li and the others left the town for a distance, they released Dugu Ying and the others who had been detoxified in the space.
At this time, Dugu Ying and the others had completely recovered to normal.
"Sister, you...you..." Erya was surprised when she saw Dugu Ying and the others.
In fact, it was Dugu Ying's idea to take Erya away.
"Erya, we are going to save people." Yan Li said and looked at Erya with a smile.
"Sister Xiaoxiao, I'm so glad that you are okay. Don't go to the small town again. They want to use Aunt Ying's blood to break the curse." Erya said, hugging Wu Xiaoxiao's thigh.
"We know." Wu Xiaoxiao nodded.
"Aunt Ying, if they use the blood of their substitute to break the curse, they will be sealed in that town forever, and people from outside the town will not be able to enter the town anymore." Yan Li looked at Dugu Ying.
After all, the substitute is created by the talisman, and the substitute's blood is naturally illusory.
"This is the best outcome. They are a group of ungrateful people who repay kindness with enmity." Uncle Li on the side looked very angry.
"That's right. Being sealed will prevent them from harming others anymore. This is the best punishment for them." Xiu Shan nodded.
"Alas... after all, human hearts are the most fickle." Dugu Ying said with a sigh.
"Erya, are you sad that the people in this town are sealed?" Dugu Ying looked at Erya.
"I'm not sad. They have bad intentions and sealed themselves. We can't blame others." Arya shook her head when she heard that.
"In this case, let's respect the fate of others. If they suddenly have a change of heart and release the substitute, then nothing will happen. If they insist on killing the substitute to take his blood, then they will have brought it upon themselves." A trace of ruthlessness flashed across Yan Li's eyes.
Such ungrateful and ungrateful people deserve to die!
"Let's go home." Dugu Ying looked at the people around her with a smile.
"Aunt Ying, I...I..." Erya was suddenly at a loss when she heard that.
She wanted to say that she had no home here!
"Erya, are you willing to go home with Aunt Ying?" Dugu Ying held Erya's little hand.
