Chapter 421
This thought flashed through Weiwei's mind for a moment.
The warm scene at dawn before her shattered like a mirror.
It was like a dream bubble bursting and disappearing in an instant.
Weiwei suddenly felt like she had seen the blue sky after clearing the clouds.
Look at the scene before her again.
The road is still the same road, and the biting snow is still falling.
But the simple but neat and orderly village before has completely turned into a ruin of broken walls and ruins.
The scene where a large number of villagers gathered before disappeared, replaced by a dead silence.
Weiwei looked back and found that all her followers were lying on the ground, and they didn't know whether they were dead or alive.
But the big pots and the flames under the pots that were set up before were still there, and various human tissues were rolling in the pots, emitting a very strange meaty smell.
The long row of unmanned corpses at the entrance of the village was also real, and a large number of heads were piled up on the side.
This is what Weiwei meant. She wanted to use the heads of these corrupt officials who plundered the people's blood and sweat to build a Jingguan at the entrance of the village.
Everything was true. The people she killed and the things she did were all true.
But... the cause of all this, the village in front of her, was fake!
Just as she suddenly thought, a large number of elite troops must have passed by the village when they rushed from the south to Mengchuan City a few days ago. In this era, the passage of the army was much more terrifying than the bandits entering the village.
Especially this is not the territory of the object of loyalty of these armies.
The broken walls in front of her, as well as another large group of ordinary-dressed corpses at the entrance of the village that had begun to rot, and a large number of human remains in the ruins, have explained everything.
Not long ago, this village was razed to the ground by the chaotic army from the south.
The people inside... I'm afraid there are no survivors left.
The biting cold rose from behind, Weiwei looked at the umbrella in her hand, but found that it was real.
At the same time, the soft touch from her right hand also reminded her of one thing.
That little girl... did not disappear!
She looked down and saw that the little girl was not as pretty and clean as before. She looked a little sloppy and embarrassed, but her eyes were still as clear and innocent as before.
Seeing Weiwei looking at her, the little girl said in a low mood:
"Sister Queen, I don't know where the village chief has gone!"
Weiwei's red lips moved, wanting to say something, but she couldn't say it.
The strange scene at the moment made her have an impulse to open the trading platform and hide in it immediately.
But for some reason, she always felt that if she ran away now, she would lose something important.
So after a little hesitation, she still bit the bullet and said in a warm voice:
"The village chief may have other things to do. It's cold outside. Why don't we go back to the tent to take shelter?"
"Tent?" The little girl looked back at the magnificent tent behind her and said timidly:
"Can I...can I go?"
"Of course." Weiwei answered without thinking.
But when she said this, she was stunned for a moment.
According to her previous character, it is absolutely impossible to allow such a dirty civilian to enter her residence.
But she didn't think of these things before she said this.
This is not because of the strange situation at the moment that scared her. If she was forced to say this, she would not answer so smoothly.
But in her subconscious, she really didn't regard the little girl in front of her as an inferior civilian.
"Great! Thank you, sister, it's so cold outside, I have been freezing for several days! Fortunately, everyone is around me to block the wind for me." The little girl cheered and followed Weiwei into the tent.
Just hearing her haul, Weiwei couldn't help swallowing.
At the moment she was about to enter the tent, she subconsciously looked back at the village behind her.
Faintly, she seemed to see an old man with white hair and beard looking at her among the broken walls.
The old man's eyes were indifferent, without any ripples. Wearing a coarse linen shirt, holding a simple crutch made of rough branches in his hand.
Although he looked extremely old, his back was straight, not hunched like other elderly people.
But with just one glance, the old man disappeared.
Before he disappeared, Weiwei saw his lips move, as if he was saying something.
She didn't hear clearly, but from the other party's mouth shape, it seemed...
"We will meet again!"
...
"So, what you mean is that you came here and saw a large number of villagers here, and killed a large number of officials for this, and also asked people to send livestock meat from Mengchuan City to give the villagers extra meals."
"Then, all this is fake? Is it an illusion?"
"But after the illusion ended, the broken umbrella in your hand was still there, and you really picked up this little girl?"
At noon, it was still snowing outside, but Weiwei's tent was already full of people.
They were basically the gods and demigods of the Chiyang family.
Originally, the mission of these people was to disperse to various parts of the Chiyang Empire to stabilize the situation and prepare the entire empire to welcome the new emperor to the throne.
Then they heard that something happened to Weiwei, and rushed over.
Are you kidding me? Who is Weiwei? She is the most powerful person in the entire Chiyang family, and the only link between their family and the killer Su Yi.
This must not go wrong.
Of course, these people were not called by Weiwei.
They were called by the ancestor Chiyang.
Because... Chiyang and Yaoyue, two old gods, were actually part of Weiwei's accompanying troops to the imperial capital, but they kept a low profile and never showed up.
As old gods and the top fighting force in the magic world, they would have found nothing unusual about what happened last night.
The most outrageous thing is that they were both unconscious like those ordinary followers, and they didn't know what happened at all.
When Weiwei asked, Chiyang recalled the situation yesterday with sweat dripping down his back, but after thinking for a long time, he could only tell what happened before entering the village.
He had no trace of everything that happened afterwards.
This kind of heaven-defying illusion, even the two gods didn't find anything unusual and fell into it, which was obviously beyond their cognition.
But Chiyang is worthy of being an old fox. After hearing Weiwei's description, he immediately found the blind spot.
Immediately, they found those followers who were sent by Weiwei to transport supplies to Mengchuan City and to capture officials related to corruption and chop off their heads.
Many of the people who were chopped at the entrance of the village were not in Weiwei's entourage at all. They were temporarily captured from other places yesterday.
If the scope of the illusion is limited to this area, then the person in charge of finding people will obviously get rid of the illusion.
However, after asking, they were even more stupid.
Those who left here and returned to Mengchuan City actually had no idea what happened yesterday, and they didn't even know that they returned to Mengchuan City halfway!
It's outrageous!
