Infinite: Dawn Game

Chapter 827 Fragmentation

"..."

This time, not only the old woman in the headscarf, but even the villagers who had been watching the commotion fell silent.

"What happen to you guys?"

Seeing that no one was paying attention to her for a long time, Fang Youhua's smile faded considerably.

"I'm just asking where Xiaohua'er's arms and legs went, didn't any of you see them?"

Fang Youhua didn't believe it.

This place is so small, there's no way to hide anything. If the villagers all say they didn't see anything, they must be lying to her.

"I saw."

The old woman in the headscarf seemed to have reddened a little. She licked her sunken lips and said:

"That beast, Vice President Wang, threw Xiaohua'er's arms and legs on the ground."

After saying that, the woman in the headscarf gave Fang Youhua a complicated look, and was about to turn away—

"Thank you, Auntie."

Fang Youhua's voice rang out from behind her, "I'll come back to thank you after I take Xiaohua to the hospital to get her arms and legs treated."

The woman in the headscarf froze. Without turning around, she quickly wiped her face and shouted:

"Well, well, I have to go back and cook for my husband. Da Hua, you, Da Hua, you go quickly."

After saying that, the old woman in the headscarf slipped out of the crowd without looking back and staggered away.

As the old woman in the headscarf disappeared at the end of the path, the villagers who had been watching the commotion exchanged glances, then looked at Fang Youhua, who was clearly mentally unstable. Their eyes held a mixture of pity and sympathy, as well as schadenfreude and sighs.

"I have to go."

Fang Youhua seemed oblivious to the stares directed at her from those around her. She carried her daughter forward—bang!

Fang Youhua and her daughter fell to the ground together, but she still held on tightly to Xiaohua even as she fell.

It was the blanket she had thrown on the floor.

Fang Youhua's gaze fell on the heavy quilt in front of her, her eyes glazed over for a few seconds.

—This quilt is really red.

Was it ever this popular before?

No one came to pull Fang Youhua and her daughter.

Fang Youhua didn't care. She struggled to her feet, holding her daughter, smiled at the villagers with complicated expressions around her, and slowly left the courtyard.

She has to go to the fields.

We need to go to the field and find Little Flower's arms and legs.

Only by finding it can we... only then can we take Xiaohua to town to see a doctor.

Little Flower will get better after seeing the doctor.

----------

Scattered memories kept flashing through Fang Youhua's mind, and she curled up in a ball, clutching her head, her head throbbing with pain.

What about behind?

What did she do next?

All she remembered was that she later killed that beast, Vice-Wang.

and after?

How did he die later?

How exactly did he die?

Countless fragments of memory kept eroding the memory nerves in Fang Youhua's head. She painfully closed her eyes, trying her best to suppress all kinds of collapsing emotions and forcefully restore calm little by little.

No... I have to live.

You have to survive and accumulate enough points.

Fang Youhua thought in a daze.

--------

Anjie and Chen Yi remained very quiet.

Both of them had good hearing, and since Fang Youhua and the others didn't deliberately lower their voices, they heard almost everything they said clearly.

Chen Yi sighed, "Not all the players in this guild are good teammates."

Ange snorted, stood up, tore off a few leaves from the grass above, chewed them, and said:

"The leader of the Eye of All Things must have some mental issues. He dared to let such a disharmonious relationship participate in the guild competition. He probably never thought he could win."

"..." Chen Yi looked at An Jie helplessly and sighed, "Sister An, you're going to offend them with what you said."

"What have you offended?"

Anjie sneered, saying nonchalantly, "Can't people even talk about what they've done?"

Chen Yi: "...I think we should think carefully about how to escape the wedding later."

Ange didn't really care about that. In her opinion, if the plot didn't follow the original story where the animals "saved" them, then they could just leave violently.

After all, the following plot is actually relatively "safe." As long as you honestly do your chores and clean up, oh right, you'll also have to go through a forced marriage.

Strictly speaking, the fairy tale "Thumbelina" only has four important nodes.

The stories can be roughly divided into "being robbed" - "running away from the wedding" - "running away from the wedding" - "meeting true love".

Although this interpretation is a bit too hasty, it is still generally consistent with the typical plot development of fairy tales.

"Wait a minute."

Anjie gave the same answer as Fang Youhua: "I also think there will still be animals that can speak human language."

Chen Yi nodded: "Then let's wait."

"By the way, Sister An, are you hungry?"

Anjie paused in her chewing of the grass leaves, then coughed somewhat awkwardly, "It's alright, it's just that my mouth feels a little bored..."

My stomach was also burning and uncomfortable.

Chen Yi took a deep breath, took out one of the books he had secretly brought out, and threw it at An Jie.

Anjie quickly took it.

Chen Yi's earnest words came from the other side: "Sister An, don't eat grass. This grass doesn't look clean. You might get a stomachache later. Sigh, eat some books instead. Books are good things. Eating them can at least replenish your knowledge, right?"

Anjie: "..."

Anjie looked down at the book in her hand, titled "The Complete Guide to Crop Sowing," and fell into a brief silence.

While Chen Yi was still rambling on, An Jie had already torn off a page from the book with a blank expression, opened her mouth, and took a bite.

Mmm, it leaves a lingering fragrance in your mouth.

The fragrance of ink.

Yu Shijiu watched An Jie's bold gesture of showing off the book pages from afar, and then chatted with Xu Han and He Lingling with a mixture of admiration and curiosity.

Are books really that delicious?

Xu Han and He Lingling: "..."

"Let's not try it."

Xu Han said, "Actually, the pages of the book taste really bad. They're bitter and you can't swallow them at all."

Yu Shijiu looked at him: "You've eaten?"

Xu Han choked, scratched his head, and said embarrassedly, "Yes, I tried taking a bite, but the taste... how should I put it? Anyway, it wasn't good, really not good! Really!"

Yu Shijiu became even more curious: "Why did you try it if it didn't taste good?"

Xu Han: "..."

"Shi Jiu, I think some things don't need to be asked in such detail—"

"Because he wants to be like Sister An."

He Lingling bluntly exposed Xu Han's attempt to cover up his words, and said with a smile:

"After discovering that the taste was unpalatable, I stubbornly forced it down, hahaha..."

Xu Han's face instantly turned bright red: "He Lingling!"

Yu Shijiu remained bewildered: "Huh? When did this happen?"

He Lingling said with a smile, "It seems like when I first moved to Anjie's place, Shi Jiu, you were invited too, right? It was then that I said Xu Han wasn't quite right in the head."
