Chapter 1601 Necromancer (11)

"Their family does have a child, who is more than four years old, but the child is not theirs. I heard that he picked it up outside Songliu City, and there was a woman at the time. The woman didn't stay at their house for long, and she stayed Some things asked them to take care of the children, and then they left and never came back." The woman said while pouring water for Shi Sheng.

"That child has been raised in their home. They took care of it all because of the woman's things. Now that the woman has left and there is no news, they will not take care of the child with all their heart. The child is also pitiful. We occasionally take care of the child from them. Passing by the house, you can hear the beatings and scolding inside.”

"That's not the worst part. A month ago, they didn't know how to get in touch with the group of dark wizards in the city. There was a wizard among them who liked young children, and they were going to give the children to them."

Shi Sheng frowned, "Is the dark mage okay in the city?"

Normal cities are not owned by dark mages. If you want to enter the city, you have to keep a low profile and cannot use any spells. Once discovered, they will attack in groups.

"Young girl, are you from out of town? This place is different from other places." The woman smiled bitterly and shook her head. "At first, Songliu City was like other places, with frequent undead attacks. But since a group of dark mages came, this situation has changed. It decreased. After that, more and more dark mages gathered in Songliu City. We ordinary people didn’t know what they were doing, but since they came, Songliu City has gotten better and better, and everyone has..."

The woman gave Shi Sheng a look that said, "You know, they just want to live well."

Whether it's a light mage or a dark mage, as long as it can keep them alive, it doesn't matter who is in the city to them.

The woman sighed, "At first, the group of dark mages were very nice. They didn't make things difficult for us. They just occupied a few houses in the north of Songliu City and didn't allow people in the city to get close. Later, a second group of dark mages came. Most of them also gathered near those houses. Except for the appearance of the undead, they rarely showed up. But in the end, the third group of dark mages were not as good as the previous ones. They were running rampant in the city, and the family took advantage of them. It’s these dark mages.”

"What's in that house?" It's impossible for so many dark mages to gather for no reason.

The original owner is the pinnacle of the dark mage, but he didn't hear any news at all...

Shi Sheng thought for a while, and it was no wonder that the original owner was the one who was used to living alone. After her master died, all her thoughts were spent on finding her master's orphan, and she didn't pay attention to other things at all. Even if she heard about it, it would probably be in one ear and in the other. Ear out.

The woman thought for a while and said, "That house used to be lived in by a wealthy family. Then something happened to that family and the whole family died, so the house became empty. There should be nothing in it."

"What are they going to do with the child?" Shi Sheng returned to the topic.

The woman continued: "This third batch of dark mages almost regards Songliu City as their own territory, and they charge no protection fees from ordinary people like us. Those who cannot pay will either be beaten to death or driven out of Songliu City. . The family found out that there was a dark mage among them who liked young children, so they planned to send the child there so that the dark mage could take care of them."

These dark mages came here after Master Jin found this place, so Master Jin didn't know the current situation in Songliu City at all.

According to time calculation, it takes almost a year.

"Since you plan to send it over, why are you still keeping it now?"

"That child..." the woman shook her head, with a look of regret on her face, "There are many injuries on his body. They wanted to take care of him before sending him there."

The woman knew only so much. As for whom it was given to, she had no idea at all.

Shi Sheng left the woman's yard and prepared to snatch the child back. Unexpectedly, when he knocked on the door again, the house was already empty, and the woman and child were gone.

…

In the intricate alleys of the city, a fat woman was holding a child and hurried in one direction. When she saw the building gradually appearing in front of her, she felt slightly relieved and ran over at a faster speed.

The mage guarding the door stopped the woman.

"It's me, I'm here to deliver something to Master Xu." The woman raised her head so that the other party could see her face clearly.

The gatekeeper mage obviously knew her and twitched into her arms. Seeing that the child had her eyes closed and looked like she was fast asleep, he let her go and said, "Go in."

The woman held the child in her arms and entered in a familiar way, and soon arrived in front of a courtyard.

There were many children in the yard, crying and screaming, which sounded particularly tragic.

They ran around the yard, avoiding the mage who was trying to catch them. The mage seemed to be happily playing games with the frightened children, grabbing one child, letting go, and then continuing to catch them, admiring their terror. .

The woman swallowed and approached the mage with the child in her arms.

Someone reported to the mage. The mage stopped and looked towards her. His eyes immediately fell on her hand, "Bring it?"

"Yes, Master Mage." The woman was a little nervous, "I was afraid that she would make a noise, so I temporarily knocked her out."

"Put it down." The mage pointed to the chair next to him.

The woman quickly put the child down, "Mr. Master, I..."

"Don't worry, this Master of Songliu City will be protecting you from now on. I'll have someone go to the shop you mentioned before to help you in a while." Master Xu waved his hand, "Go down."

The woman beamed with joy and said, "Thank you, Master Master."

This child is not hers. Who knows if that woman will ever come back. It is worth it to get so many benefits in exchange for her child.

I will move when I get back soon, in case anyone is looking for someone else.

With this thought in mind, the woman turned to leave, but when she turned around, she saw a woman in black robe walking slowly in front of her, with many mages following behind her, all looking fearful and nervous.

this is not……

The woman suddenly panicked and froze in place, not daring to move.

The distance between them was not far, but Shi Sheng came to her very quickly and looked at her condescendingly, "Where is the child?"

Her eyes were calm and calm, but it made people feel cold, as if just one look could make people lose the strength to struggle and move, and they could only let her do what they did.

The woman was sweating, her heartbeat seemed to have stopped, and she looked at Master Xu behind her tremblingly.

Master Xu obviously saw the person coming, frowned dissatisfied, and shouted directly, "What's going on? Who is she?"

The expressions of the mages following Shi Sheng changed. They all winked at Master Xu, and some even pointed directly at the undead staff in Shi Sheng's hand.

Who else but that person can take this?
