Shortly after leaving the royal city, Liuyin felt nauseous from the smell of Tulu's blood.
The man thought it was because he smelled too strong, so he quickly moved away.
"I'm going to take a shower outside and then I'll come back."
"Hey, wait a minute," Liu Yin called out to stop him. "It's not because of that."
Moreover, with the carriage parked in the middle of nowhere, where was he supposed to find water?
"Come here."
As the slaughter approached, Liu Yin placed his hand on her abdomen and softly asked, "Do you feel anything?"
"Is it our child?" Tu Lu asked with some surprise, a faint life force seemingly emanating from beneath his palm.
"Mm." Liuyin nodded.
The man suddenly pulled her into his arms, and was somewhat incoherent, "That's wonderful."
"I will definitely take good care of you from now on."
——
"It seems quite a few spirits from Wushan have come here." Liu Yin said thoughtfully, her eyes turning cold for a moment.
Therefore, the villagers at the foot of Wushan Mountain would definitely be the first to suffer, but Liuyin didn't feel sorry for them at all.
What they are suffering now is merely the consequence of what happened before.
"You want to help them?" Tu Lu looked down at Liu Yin, noticing a change in her expression.
Liuyin didn't answer, but simply said, "Weren't you looking for food?"
"Moreover, they came from Wushan. They either die or return to Wushan."
"good."
Tu Lu held Liu Yin's hand and slowly walked along the street they had walked before.
The man walked very slowly, with one arm around Liuyin's waist while keeping an eye on the path she was walking on.
Liu Yin tried to persuade him, thinking his behavior was a bit extreme, but she couldn't change his mind and could only let him continue.
Perhaps it was because he was a little nervous when he first learned that she was pregnant; he wouldn't be like that afterward.
The houses on the street were the same as the ones I had seen last time; the windows were tightly shut, without a single crack.
A faint, fishy stench filled the air. Tu Lu didn't think much of it, but Liu Yin couldn't help but cover her nose.
Noticing her movement, Tu Lu looked at the inn they had visited before and said, "Let's go check it out."
"Mm." Liuyin nodded in agreement, without removing her hand from her nose.
Tu Lu led Liu Yin to the inn's door. Having learned from his previous experience, he knocked on the door this time.
But with just a light touch of his knuckles on the door, the inn door opened, revealing rows of tables and chairs neatly arranged inside.
Tu Lu didn't care whether the innkeeper was dead or alive. He just glanced at the scene on the second floor and, after confirming that there were no monsters in the inn, he took Liu Yin upstairs.
It was the same room they had stayed in last time, but it was covered with a thin layer of dust, and it looked like it hadn't been cleaned for a while.
However, Liu Yin could understand. With the monsters attacking, everyone was too busy taking care of themselves to worry about these things.
Tu Lu took off his coat and placed it on a stool for Liu Yin to sit down. Then he went downstairs to fetch water and carefully wiped away the dust.
Hearing the sounds of water being scooped and footsteps coming from the courtyard, the innkeeper trembled under the ground.
It probably isn't one of those spirits or monsters, right? After all, spirits and monsters don't lack water.
Even though he knew in his heart that there might be people up there, the innkeeper didn't dare to go out.
Whether it's asking for lodging or stealing, it's fine as long as you don't bring any spirits or monsters to him.
These days, seeing so many people suddenly disappear from the town, he was terrified.
The innkeeper thought to himself that he used to love money, but now, in this critical moment, he realized that there were things more important than money.
Fortunately, he was rich, which allowed him to escape this calamity for the time being.
I just don't know when this will end.
