Fu Yan hesitated for a second, put the watch back into his arms, and held the child's hand.

The boy took him out from behind the statue, and Fu Yan saw the guard and Zhao Jinhua lying on the ground. The guard fell face down and directly bruised his face. It seemed that he lost consciousness very quickly. Fu Yan squatted down and touched his neck to confirm that there was still a pulse - he was still alive.

Next to her, Zhao Jinhua also closed her eyes and lay on the ground.

Fu Yan stood up, pointed at the guard and looked at the little boy: "Did you do this?"

"..." The boy glanced at the guard and showed no response to Fu Yan's question. But Fu Yan felt that this was equivalent to acquiescence.

This ability to cause coma was scary, but Fu Yan figured out a way for the child to escape from the cave. He thought for a while and suddenly said to the child: "By the way, I don't know your name yet, and you don't know mine, right?"

This question came a bit unexpectedly, especially in this situation where you should run quickly. , the way of asking questions can be called "a model of bluntness". But the boy didn't have any doubts, he just looked at Fu Yan quietly.

"My name is 'Fu Yan', 'Fu' means... let me write it on your hand." Fu Yan said, taking out Ke Xinya's pen from his pocket, taking one of the boy's hands and writing.

In fact, he understood very well that this child might not know his name, but his purpose was not to introduce himself anyway. He wrote the word "Fu" one stroke at a time on the palm of the boy's right hand, and the traces of ink were imprinted on it. Fu Yan waited for a few seconds, but the ink marks on the word "Fu" showed no change.

——In other words, this child is not fake. At least not for this world of horror games.

——In other words, his ability has reached the level of Ligui BOSS, so Ke Xinya's pen cannot detect it.

Fu Yan didn't know what the correct answer was, but his attitude toward the child became more cautious, and his initial thought of "either find a chance to get rid of him" stopped. No matter what the boy's origins or purpose was, he was by no means an important person that Fu Yan could easily throw away.

After Fu Yan finished writing the word "Fu", he stopped his hand with a natural look on his face: "Do you remember it?"

The boy didn't know if he realized his purpose. He looked at the words in his hand seriously and nodded.

He had to do a complete performance, so Fu Yan asked again: "What's your name? Can you write?"

The boy shook his head.

Fu Yan: "No name, or do you still have a name and can't write?"

The boy shook his head, then shook his head.

Fu Yan understood, but he didn't have a name and couldn't write it.

This is a huge flaw. The child seems to have normal intelligence and is dressed like other people in the village. At most, he is clean and tidy. It is understandable that a baby of such a big age is uneducated and does not even have a name. This is definitely not the result of being raised in a human family.

Moreover, he cannot speak, sign language, or write, so communication is extremely hindered. If it weren't for Fu Yan's inexplicable tacit understanding with him, it would be really difficult to understand him.

Thinking about it carefully, he looks like Fan Xiangyi and only communicates with Fu Yan, and only Fu Yan can understand him quickly. He looked like a human being, but in fact, he looked more like a plug-in specially sent to Fu Yan.

Fu Yan thought: So, was it Fan Xiangyi who did it?

He looked at the child's face and felt that Fan Xiangyi did not look like a guy with such evil taste. On the contrary, Fan Xiangyi should hate a creature that looks like a mini replica of himself.

Fu Yan saw that the boy was still concentrating on reading the words in his hand, and sighed silently, lamenting that he still felt that this "little monster" - he didn't know what the little boy was, but he tentatively named him a "monster" - was a bit pitiful. It's a bit ridiculous to think about a human player who wants to wallow in a bloody storm, but pity a "little monster" who can stun others at will.

Fu Yan drove away the emotional thoughts in his mind, returned to reason, and gestured to the boy to see the statue of the Virgin Mary: "Then do you know who she is?"

The boy finally moved his eyes away from his palms, looked up at the statue, and nodded lightly.

"You know?" Fu Yan asked, "Then who is she?"

The boy tilted his head slightly, looking confused, as if he didn't understand Fu Yan's question. Fu Yan asked again: "Do you know who the Holy Mother is?"

The boy pointed at the statue.

"Yes, that's her." Fu Yan asked, "Who is she?"

The boy continued to point to the statue.

This cycle was repeated several times, and Fu Yan finally realized the boy's answer before trying to explain the question again.

What he means is: The Holy Mother is the Holy Mother.

In fact, all the villagers in Shengxi Village might answer Fu Yan like this. Who is God? God is God. To take a step back, even if the Virgin Mother is someone else to the boy, he may not be able to find a way to convey it to Fu Yan.

If Fu Yan wants to communicate with him, he must try his best to provide multiple-choice questions.

"Forget it, let's go out first and find a safe place to talk." Fu Yan actually still felt that this child had secrets and clues, but this was obviously not a good place to ask questions. Moreover, Fu Yan had to work hard to come up with a system of selective questions, which would take some time.

The boy agreed with his decision and came to hold his hand again after nodding. Fu Yan took a step back and said, "Wait a minute, I forgot one thing."

As he said that, he took Ke Xinya's pen and walked around behind the statue again, scribbling on the hem of the statue. Next four words.

--A visit.

The boy looked over and Fu Yan explained to him, "These are words of blessing."

Jing bullied the man for being illiterate.

The boy probably didn't care whether what Fu Yan wrote was a blessing or a curse. After all, Fu Yan had already written on the statue, and the boy hadn't stopped him from this "uncivilized tourist behavior", so he probably didn't care about it.

He stretched out his hand again, insisting on taking Fu Yan's hand.

Fu Yan noticed that he changed his left hand to hold it, and the right hand that he had held twice before had just been written by Fu Yan.

"..." Fu Yan didn't say much for the time being, and just held his hand. Before they left the cave, Fu Yan looked back at the statue. The statue signed by Ke Xinya's pen stood quietly without any change.

——Tsk, I took two tests, are the results true...

***

Fu Yan and the boy came out of this deep cave together. The rain outside had stopped, but the temperature difference between the inside and outside made Fu Yan feel cold all over. Shivered, then sneezed.

That is to say, the other villagers haven't returned yet, otherwise Fu Yan would just give them away.

The hiding place of Xie Anna and the others has changed, but the boy can still lead him to find other people. Fu Yan was too lazy to ask him why he knew the direction and move forward bravely in the woods at night. While there was no one around and in the darkness, Fu Yan whispered to the boy in front of him: "Let me ask you a question? If the answer is 'yes', squeeze my hand, if it's 'no', shake my hand, okay?" "

His hand was pinched immediately.

Fu Yan then asked, "Are you from Shengxi Village? I mean, have you lived in Shengxi Village since you were a child?"

The boy shook his hand.

--really.

He "said" before that he had no name, so Fu Yan guessed that he was not the child of a villager. Fu Yan asked again: "Then where did you come from?" This question was difficult for the boy to answer. Fu Yan was already prepared and added, "Is it... from that pit?"

The pit was full of children, so Fu Yan had such a conjecture. This conjecture was ridiculous, but the boy gave a positive answer and squeezed Fu Yan's hand.

Because of this affirmation, Fu Yan followed his previous train of thought and continued to guess: "Then where were you before?... Where was the Holy Mother?"

The boy squeezed his hand again.

——He really came from the Holy Mother!

Fu Yan had actually assumed that the Madonna was the BOSS of this horror game world. This "young Brahma Xiangyi" actually came from her side. Fu Yan had to start thinking about the relationship between the Madonna and Brahma Xiangyi.

Could it be...

Fu Yan asked, "Did you grow up next to her?"

I didn't get any feedback on this question for a long time.

Fu Yan was a little confused and tried to interpret the response: "You don't know?"

The boy pinched him again.

Fu Yan continued to ask: "Then, she is your mother?"

The boy stopped responding.

Fu Yan had no choice but to give up exploring his relationship with the Holy Mother for the time being, and instead asked, "Is there really another child beside the Holy Mother?"

- Yes.

"Really?" Fu Yan originally thought that "human sacrifice" was pure murder, but he didn't expect that the Virgin Mother would really take away the children. "Are there many?"

- Yes.

"Never grow up? Will it never change?"

The boy pinched and shook it. Fu Yan speculated that this might mean that the children around the Virgin Mother were dead souls and therefore would not grow up. And "human sacrifice" happens once every ten years, so these children will be replaced.

Fu Yan asked, "Do you know what happened to these children in the end?"

The boy suddenly stopped walking, turned to look at Fu Yan, and raised his finger to point to his mouth.

Fu Yan subconsciously came up with an interpretation: "...eat?"

- Yes.

"Who ate it? The Virgin?"

——Yes.

"What about you? Have you eaten?"

- No.

Fu Yan didn't know whether the boy's words were true or false. If they were true, then the Virgin Mother was obviously as powerful as a child. She was pretending to be a god, using the Tantra of Holy Breath Village to trick the villagers into sacrificing their children.

However, Fu Yan's third task has not been completed yet. It seems that he does not understand the Holy Mother well enough. Fu Yan asked again: "Do you know anything else about her?"

- Yes.

"What is it?" Fu Yan asked one by one, "Her name? Gender? Origin? Appearance?..."

When he mentioned "appearance," the boy pinched him. Fu Yan thought about those goddess statues that looked basically the same, and thought that they were just religious packaging. However, it is not convenient to describe the appearance as a matter of choice. Fu Yan thought about it and said, "Will you draw it for me later?"

——Okay.

Having finished asking about the Virgin Mother, Fu Yan turned to the main task: "Then do you know anything about the Holy Breath Village?"

- No.

Fu Yan thought so. This child was sent by Li Gui BOSS to kill him. He probably only targeted him, good or bad. Fu Yan suspected that he had never even entered Shengxi Village.

Fu Yan actually still had some questions, but now they had arrived. Xie Anna greeted with excitement: "Brother Fu, you're back!" "

...Yeah." Fu Yan was about to go over when the wind suddenly blew the tree down. The rain hit my head. Fu Yan let go of the boy and said to him, "Hurry up and wash the writing on your hands with rainwater."

The boy grabbed his hand again and shook it.
