Chapter 142 Parents

A foreign girl named Irene, but she was sold by her parents a month ago and may be dead now.

After receiving the news, Li Xun didn't care and just waved his hand gently.

"Take me to meet this Erin's parents."

His intuition told him that this girl might be the witch he was looking for.

Since the other party has become a suspected witch-like existence, it must not be possible for him to die so easily.

Bird nodded and stood up with some difficulty with the help of the villagers around him.

His broken arm was also picked up, and after being pressed on the broken wound, it showed signs of healing.

In the eyes of the villagers, this scene looked magical, but to the extraordinary, this was just a basic operation.

Extraordinary beings with stronger resilience can grow their arms back even if their entire arm is cut off.

Bird's complexion also gradually returned to normal, but the area on his arm that was healing still looked like stone.

Old Finger didn't dare to say anything. He retreated to the room and stood there with his wife, seemingly at a loss.

Bird said this, and Li Xun nodded slightly, gesturing for him to knock on the door.

"Did you adopt her just to sell her? Do you know what will happen to her?"

Old Finger stared blankly at the petite girl standing next to Li Xun. The young girl seemed to remind him of his poor daughter. His eyes were a little moist, and he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. The old man lowered his head silently.

.

He looked a little surprised, and then took a step or two back.

The standard answer is that we don't know. Asking how the witch was born is essentially the same as asking how the gods were born.

"Yes, that's right, Irene is a witch, so I handed her over to the hunter!"

Priest Middle seemed to be very patient and had no intention of stopping his behavior.

"Witch? Why do you think an ordinary little girl is a witch?"

His wife's words seemed to give Finger courage. He raised his head, looked at the sheriff and the young hunter in front of him, and spoke boldly.

The militiamen who were supporting Bird stopped, with a look of fear on their faces. They wanted to speak but were a little scared.

"Lord Sheriff, what's the matter? We've all been honest these days, so we probably haven't violated the village's rules."

"As I said, it's just a routine checkup. If you're so afraid of what to do, can I still eat you?"

In other words, in the eyes of the old man, everything is still under control.

"Yes, sir, Irene's parents live here. Her father's name is Finger, and he is very old. Her mother seems to have no name. The family has had several children, but they have not been raised."

Luolwei seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then the girl looked at the ordinary house in front of her.

"Ahem, cough, cough, these are rules made to better manage the villagers in the village."

In short, all the villagers' time is planned and arranged in detail, and there is no free time for themselves at all.

With the support of several villagers around him, he honestly began to lead the way.

During this period, Li Xun kept looking at the church in the center of the village.

When the girl's name was mentioned, Finger's face showed some expressions that humans should have.

Luo Erwei raised her eyes and glanced at the man, tilting her head slightly.

There are very few outsiders in Domeng Village, and the young man in front of him makes the Sheriff's attitude so respectful. He must be a hunter from the Hunting Court.

He usually has a serious posture, which makes people look intimidating.

Looking at the numb eyes of the villagers in front of them, it is obvious that they have long been accustomed to this kind of life.

"Lolwei, tell me, how was the witch born?"

"Maybe, it's okay..."

"Are there any other rules in Domeng Village? Can you tell me about them?"

"Didn't you already get the answer? Why are you suddenly asking this question again?"

Li Xun also walked in and looked at this empty room, which could be called a house with bare walls.

Li Xun shook his head gently. Sure enough, the so-called beauty and happiness were just lies.

"Irene, she is your daughter, right? Can you tell me about her?"

Generally speaking, it is when the villagers in the village get up, eat, pray and go to bed every day.

"I just suddenly became curious. Is there some way to artificially create a witch?"

Losing freedom, losing oneself, even living under orders, such a life is not even as good as being kept in captivity.

Bird said this angrily and pushed open the tattered door.

It is normal for the common people at the bottom to have no names, let alone noble surnames.

It took a long time to knock on the door before getting a response. The white-haired old man looked at the situation outside the house through the crack of the door, with a look of fear on his face.

He has never seen the Sheriff show such an expression. Although the other person has never been domineering or bullying anyone in the village, as the second-in-command under Priest Middle, he obviously has a high reputation in the village.

prestige.

"Because the hunters said it. The hunters are heroes who hunt witches. How can they lie to us! Our village was cursed by witches. It was the hunters who worked tirelessly to take away the girls who might become witches.

Purification prevented our village from being destroyed."

Finger was speechless, but his wife beside him mustered up the courage to speak.

"Is this here?"

Bird moved his face closer, with a bright smile on his face, which made old Finger look a little surprised.

Bird cleared his throat and then briefly introduced Li Xun.

"I...I...Irene, she..."

"It's me, old Finger, opening the door for routine inspection."

"Sir...sir, you can't blame us, that child is not normal! The hunter said she might be a witch, so we sold her."

"The rules of the village have always been like this. Anyone whose child is contaminated by a witch must hand it over! Not only will he not be punished, but he will also be rewarded by Priest Middle. I... we have done nothing wrong.

Eileen is a witch!"

"I see, that's what you think, father and mother."

The plaintive sighs became more determined, and it seemed that only the couple in the room could hear the sound.

A trace of surprise and joy flashed in Finger's eyes, but before he could speak, along with a weak mental fluctuation, a beam of light that came from nowhere penetrated the bodies of the old couple in front of him.
