Everyone walked towards the barefoot doctor's house at the east end of the village.
When the fat man found out that Gu Jiu was also following, he couldn't help but look at her curiously. He thought she wouldn't go. After all, she had said "weak" with confidence yesterday.
Gu Jiu smiled and said, "I was the first one to suggest that Mr. Wang go see a doctor. It would be bad if I didn't go with him."
When Lin Dandan and Wang Peiping heard this, they almost couldn't help but break down.
Although Wu Yang said that they could go to the barefoot doctor to ask about amnesia, in their opinion, Gu Jiu was just a blind cat catching a dead mouse. Who knew what her real intentions were
There are three adjacent households at the east end of the village.
"This is Granny Wang's home." Wu Yang pointed to a house by the river. He had come here to investigate yesterday. "The house to Granny Wang's left should be the barefoot doctor's home."
Everyone came to the barefoot doctor's house and through the fence they could see some herbs drying in the yard.
"Is the doctor home?" Wu Yang shouted inside.
With a creak, an old man opened the door and walked out of the house.
He was wearing an old-fashioned coat, his hair was gray, his face was wrinkled, his back was hunched, and when he looked at people with a pair of gloomy eyes, people felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
"What's the matter?" asked the old man.
Wu Yang said: "My friend is injured, and the village chief asked us to come to you to ask for some medicine."
He did not ask the barefoot doctor to treat him, but instead asked for medicine. This made Wang Peiping secretly relieved. Seeing the barefoot doctor's look, he did not dare to really let him treat him, because who knew if he was a human or a ghost.
The barefoot doctor opened the gate of the fence and let them in.
When a group of people were passing by the yard, they swept their eyes across the herbs drying in the yard and suddenly saw a very strange herb, which was pale white and had roots that looked like bones.
Seeing this strangely shaped herb, everyone guessed that this should be the grass ghost core that Lu Ji mentioned.
"Doctor, what kind of herb is this? It looks so strange." The fat man asked.
The barefoot doctor looked at him gloomily and said impatiently: "This is a grass ghost core. It looks like that. What's so strange about it?"
It really is the grass ghost core.
It seemed that the old man had a bad temper. Although everyone thought it would be wise to keep their mouths shut, they came here to ask about amnesia, so they had no choice but to talk to him.
Wu Yang asked: "Doctor, I heard that the grass ghost core is used to treat amnesia. Does anyone in the village often suffer from amnesia?"
"Why are you asking this?" The barefoot doctor's tone was very bad.
The fat man, relying on his fatness and thick skin, said with a smile: "We are just curious."
The barefoot doctor swept his gloomy eyes over them. Everyone who was swept by his eyes felt uncomfortable. When they thought he was going to be angry, they saw a weird smile on his face, "There are indeed many children suffering from amnesia. Children's souls are light and can be easily seduced by mountain ghosts. And you outsiders, mountain ghosts like young and energetic souls the most!"
For a moment, everyone present looked at him quietly, not daring to breathe.
The fat man tried hard to move his chubby body behind his brother, showing a somewhat frightened expression: This old man is just talking, why is he staring at him? Is it because he is fatter, younger and more energetic
The skinny body of the man could not hide the flesh of his brother. He looked at the barefoot doctor calmly and frowned slightly.
The barefoot doctor went into the room, took out a packet of medicine and stuffed it into their hands. He seemed not to want to deal with them anymore. He impatiently drove them out and told them not to bother him anymore.
What a bad temper.
Everyone was muttering to themselves, and when they passed the yard, they saw the grass ghost cores drying in the sun and quickly quickened their pace.
Only after leaving the barefoot doctor's house did Wu Yang and his friends breathe a sigh of relief.
The tense and weird feeling just now was really uncomfortable.
Wang Peiping was also scared to death. Although he had experienced two games, he still had a natural fear of ghosts. Whenever he saw NPCs in the game world that looked like ghosts, he couldn't help but be afraid.
Seeing the medicine bag in Wu Yang's hand, he trembled and said, "Brother Wu, do I really need to use this medicine bag?"
Wu Yang was thinking about something, and when he heard this, he was stunned for a moment and said, "Whatever, if you think you can bear the injury, then don't use it." Although he felt that if the player was injured in the world game and the NPC took the initiative to help with the treatment, he should not do anything.
Of course Wang Peiping didn't want to use it. He would rather endure the pain than use medicine that might have been given by ghosts.
Lin Dandan asked anxiously, "Brother Wu, what do you think of what the doctor said just now?"
Wu Yang said, "It seems that the ones suffering from amnesia are the children in the village. According to the doctor, children are prone to amnesia. However, are their souls really taken away by mountain ghosts?"
What is the relationship between the mountain ghost and the curse of the village
Wu Yang felt that as long as he figured out the relationship between the two, he should be able to find a way to escape from the cursed village.
After saying this, Wu Yang was about to ask everyone to split up and continue looking for more information when he saw Gu Jiu walking towards Grandma Wang's house.
He felt a slight movement in his heart and decided to follow.
Lin Dandan and Wang Pei usually followed Wu Yang and were willing to follow him. When they saw him go, they hurried to follow. Fatty was curious about what Gu Jiu was going to do, so he pulled his brother to follow.
Lu Ji walked at the end with a calm expression.
When he arrived at Grandma Wang's house, Gu Jiu stood in front of the gate and called out inside first.
With the creaking sound of the door opening, a middle-aged woman came out of the house.
The houses in Qingshan Village are all made of wood and are old. There is always a harsh creaking sound when opening the door.
Granny Wang was not very old. She was short and thin, with neatly combed hair. Her clothes, although old, were washed clean. She looked very kind and more like a normal person than the barefoot doctor.
Lin Dandan looked at Granny Wang and couldn't believe that such a normal person actually made dolls.
"My girl, what's the matter?" Granny Wang asked Gu Jiu in a friendly manner.
Gu Jiu also responded with a kind smile, "Grandma Wang, I like dolls very much. I heard that you can make a lot of beautiful dolls. Can I go and see your dolls?"
She is good-looking, gentle and quiet, like a good girl who listens to her elders and is liked by them.
Granny Wang was happy to show people her dolls and happily invited them in.
Wu Yang and his companions followed behind mechanically, not expecting that they would really get to see Grandma Wang's rag dolls. Yesterday, when Wu Yang came to investigate, although he heard that Grandma Wang was good at making rag dolls, he did not try to go into Grandma Wang's house to see the dolls.
What exactly is Gu Jiu going to do
Even the two fat brothers were a little confused and thought that this newcomer was very brave.
Granny Wang is a widow. Her house is not big, just one floor, with two rooms and a main dining hall.
The room where the dolls are kept is on the left side of the main hall. When you open the door, a stuffy air that has been sealed for a long time rushes in, making it difficult to breathe.
Gu Jiu frowned slightly, then walked in with Granny Wang without changing his expression.
The others covered their noses and it took them a while to get used to the heavy air.
The light in the room was dim, but everyone could still see the layout of the room clearly. The whole room was filled with dolls, on the bed, on the cabinet, on the table, and even by the window...
I actually use a room to store dolls.
People who don’t know the situation would think it’s a doll house.
When they entered, all the dolls in the room looked at them, which made them feel terrified.
The size of these dolls is about the same as the one Gu Jiu brought back, with round faces, big eyes, small noses and small mouths, and they all have a cute smile on their faces. However, the luster in their eyes is very similar to that of human eyes, and it looks weirder the more you look at it.
The dolls were either sitting or standing, facing the door, and in the dim light, their eyes seemed to glow.
Gu Jiu looked around and said with admiration: "Grandma Wang, your doll is so pretty."
Granny Wang likes people praising her dolls very much. She has a proud look on her face and says proudly: "They are all my masterpieces, just like my children. I love these little darlings very much."
Gu Jiu walked around the room, as if he really liked these dolls.
After reading it, she took out a doll from her windbreaker pocket and said, "Grandma Wang, I received a doll yesterday. Is this the doll you made?"
Everyone present felt uncomfortable when they discovered that she actually carried that strange rag doll with her.
This newcomer is really brave.
Granny Wang looked at the doll in her hand and shook her head, "No, this doll is not made by me. The dolls I make all have logos on them."
Huh
Hearing what Granny Wang said, everyone was stunned.
Gu Jiu was also confused, "Grandma Wang, what sign are you talking about..."
Granny Wang said mysteriously, "You can't tell them. They will be unhappy if you tell them."
At this moment, Granny Wang, who originally looked very kind and normal, suddenly became abnormal. Lin Dandan and Wang Peiping held their breath and thought to themselves that as expected, none of the NPCs in the game world are normal. Even if they look normal, who knows if they are ghosts mixed in with normal people
Gu Jiu didn't force it. After looking at the doll, he said goodbye to Grandma Wang.
Granny Wang seemed to like her very much. When she sent them out, she kept saying, "My daughter, come and play when you have time. My dears all like you."
What does "all the good kids like you" mean? I guess you're talking about the kids.
Lin Dandan, Wang Peiyang and the fat man felt their scalps tingling after hearing this. Being liked by ghosts is not a good thing. But looking at Gu Jiu, maybe it was because she was ignorant and fearless, she actually nodded obediently and said she would come again when she had time.
Damn, does this newcomer know who invited her
Does she think this is still a normal world and that Granny Wang is just a handmade doll enthusiast
Finally away from Granny Wang's house, Lin Dandan looked at Gu Jiu with a strange expression, "You are really brave."
Gu Jiu looked at her strangely and said, "Don't they say that under normal circumstances, NPCs won't attack players?"
Lin Dandan choked. It was true. When players were searching for information, as long as the death mechanism was not triggered, NPCs would generally not suddenly turn into ghosts and attack people.
The game world is indeed dangerous, but as long as you know how to avoid danger, you will be safe most of the time.
Although it was Gu Jiu's first time to enter a game mission, she asked Fatty a lot about her experiences in the game world yesterday and summed up a rule: even the NPCs and ghosts in the game world have to follow certain rules.
The rules not only bind the players, but also the ghosts and monsters in the game. The battle between players and NPCs is a battle of rules.
This is something that can only be discovered after playing several games.
Wu Yang looked at her in surprise. He didn't expect this newcomer to be so perceptive. If she could survive, she might be able to go further than anyone else present.
The fat man asked in confusion: "Grandma Wang said that this doll was not made by her, so where did it come from?"
This is indeed a puzzling question.
Everyone looked at Gu Jiu's windbreaker pocket. She had stuffed the doll into her pocket again.
Although Granny Wang looks kind, the dolls in her house give players a clear message that there is something wrong with this NPC. She must have key information that needs attention. And the doll in Gu Jiu's hand was not made by her, which is a big problem.
Grandma Wang is the only one in the village who can make dolls. If it wasn’t made by Grandma Wang, then who else could have made them
Wu Yang thought for a moment and said, "Miss Gu, why don't you ask the children who gave you the doll yesterday? Maybe you can learn something from them."
Gu Jiu nodded and decided to go and ask.
