Chris immediately dismounted, walked forward and opened the door curtain.
I saw three corpses lying in the yurt, two men and one woman, with deep fear on their faces.
Chris squatted down and inspected the body. The body was pale in color, and the skin was wrinkled, like withered tree bark, and it felt extremely cold to the touch.
There is a small round hole in their neck, which can almost fit an index finger into, but other than that there are no other wounds.
"These people died after being drained of blood from their bodies. How come the small holes in their necks look like they were poked with a wand?" Chris rubbed his chin and muttered, "Could it be the work of a black magician?
?”
Ordinary magicians will not kill people for no reason, let alone drain blood from people's bodies at will.
Then, Chris went to several other yurts to check and found that the people inside died in the same way.
There were twenty-one people in total, all of whom had their blood drained to death.
"Abba, mom, I'm back." At this time, Lilith's voice came from outside.
The little girl drove the sheep and walked slowly towards this side with the little flower dog.
She didn't notice anything strange, but Xiaohua felt something was wrong and started barking "woof woof woof".
Chris walked out of the yurt and looked at the girl's innocent eyes, feeling a little regretful in his heart.
"Hey, Chris, why are you at my house?" Lilith asked in surprise.
"Your father and mother are dead." Although she really didn't want to tell her this cruel fact, it was now the case and it was obvious that she couldn't hide it anymore.
"What?" Lilith panicked, "You're lying to me, right?"
"Come in and take a look and say goodbye to them for the last time." Chris stood up and got out of the way.
Lilith rushed into the yurt like crazy and screamed: "Abba and Mom, what's wrong with you, brother, don't scare me."
She hugged her parents' corpses tightly, wailing, and her tears fell like broken beads.
Lilith cried so hard that her heart was broken.
Chris walked in, patted her back gently, and said, "They had been dead for a long time when I came here, and I don't know who killed them."
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...Abba." Lilith didn't listen to Chris' words at all and just sat there crying uncontrollably.
"Alas!" Chris sighed.
After experiencing this kind of thing, no amount of comfort would help. He could only wait quietly for the girl to vent her emotions by crying.
"Mom, please open your eyes... and see if I'm okay. I won't... be greedy anymore. I will listen to you carefully in the future." Lilith's voice was a little hoarse.
Half an hour later, Lilith was tired of crying and leaned her head on the edge of the table, her eyes dull.
"Hey!" Chris waved his palm in front of the little girl and took out the luminous pearl from the ring. "Tell me, when and where did you pick this thing up?"
Along the way, nothing happened to the other prairie people. Only Lilith's family was suspected of being killed by a black magician, so Chris had reason to suspect that their deaths were related to this night pearl.
Lilith still maintained a dull expression and did not reply for a long time.
Chris patted her cheek and repeated his question.
Lilith sobbed: "Two nights ago, it was not far from here, just two steps away."
Now it is basically certain that Lilith's family died because of this night pearl.
However, Chris didn't plan to tell her the news to prevent Lilith from feeling guilty and thinking about it.
He doesn't know what the use of this strange luminous pearl is now, and he will let Tina study it carefully when he returns.
"Do you have family elsewhere?" Chris asked softly.
Lilith shook her head and said, "No more."
Chris asked tentatively: "Grandparents, grandparents?"
"They are all gone."
Chris said: "Is there anyone you know on this grassland? I'll send you there and let him take care of you."
Lilith continued to shake her head.
"All right."
A teenage girl was helpless, and Chris felt really sad.
But he was about to go to the dangerous Snowy Mountains, so he couldn't take her with him.
"Why don't you go to other villages on the grassland? It's not safe to stay here alone."
"I'm not going anywhere." Lilith hugged her knees and buried her head, her pretty face stained with tears.
Chris advised: "Be obedient."
"I don't want it. A girl like me who has lost her parents and relies on others to survive will definitely be trained into a slave girl by them. It's better to just die."
Chris was slightly stunned. He originally wanted to find a shelter for her, but found that he was pushing her into a pit of fire.
Chris thought for a while and said: "Let's do this. You go to live somewhere else temporarily. After I come back from the Snowy Mountains, I will bring you back to live in my territory, but you can't live here."
"Are you afraid that the people who killed Mom and Dad will come back?" Lilith's mind is not too stupid, but she is too simple.
"Yes, that's right."
Lilith was no longer sad. She widened her dark eyes and asked, "But, how can you guarantee that you can find me when you come back?"
"This is simple." Chris took out Dragon Roar and tapped Lilith's shoulder twice, leaving a magic mark. "Now no matter where you are, I can find you."
"Okay, then I'll wait for you." After saying that, Lilith picked up a small shovel and went outside to start digging a hole.
Chris turned directly into the true dragon form in the direction where her back was facing, dug a big hole with his claws, and then returned to his human form.
"Are you going to bury mom, dad, and brother? There's no need to dig. I'll dig it for you."
Lilith turned around and looked over: "Why are you so fast?"
"I belong to the magician." Chris threw all the corpses in the yurt into the pit.
After that, use the strong wind technique to blow the sand into the deep pit and fill it up.
Chris said: "You go home and get everything you can use. I will help you pack it and take it to the place where you are going to live."
Hearing this, Lilith returned home and soon came over holding a wool blanket and some clothes.
Chris stuffed all those things into the space ring, put Lilith on Lagen's back, and set off.
The little flower dog followed the sheep. They were not very fast. It took them half an hour to reach a place near a water source.
"You can stay here until I come back." Chris picked up a single tent from the ring and propped it up.
He planned to keep this thing for use in the snowy mountains to prevent it from being damaged by wind and snow, so Chris brought several spare ones.
