The woman and her husband's expressions changed instantly. They rushed towards the two dishes on the table, trying to lift the lids.
boom! ! !
Tassanya instantly pinned the woman to the wall, causing cracks to appear all over the wall.
The woman's husband saw Leila appear in front of him, yelled, and drew the kitchen knife from his waist.
But Leila punched him in the stomach.
puff! ! !
The man vomited up ascites and bent over to kneel on the ground.
Even without transforming, Leila's power at the third rank is far superior to that of a first-rank man.
At the doorway, the old beggar tried to run, but a purple dagger was already at his neck.
The terrifying aura emanating from that dagger almost made him faint.
"Tied."
Luo Xiu spoke softly:
"Then Leila and Tassanya waited for us outside."
In no time at all, the three of them were tied up like big, colorful rice dumplings.
"Owner."
Before leaving, Leila looked at Luo Xiu and whispered:
"Layla's punch just now felt off, Master, be careful."
Luo Xiu nodded.
After Leila and Tassanya came out of the door, Luo Xiu watched as the mental resistance damage indicator on their status bars gradually disappeared before gesturing to Miler.
Have Milair cut off the thick cloths covering the men.
"Don't...don't!"
Compared to the other two, the woman with the pointed mouth and monkey-like cheeks reacted extremely strongly.
She kept waving her hands, resisting Miler's approach.
She didn't even care when Milair's blade cut her hand.
Milair's eyes narrowed, and he swiftly brought down his knife.
The cloth covering the woman's body tore open instantly, scattering layer by layer.
There were no scenes unsuitable for children.
Just as Luo Xiu had predicted, countless red mushrooms swayed on the woman's body.
These red mushrooms were much larger than the corpse at the entrance.
They swelled and contracted, seemingly pulsating with the flow of the woman's blood.
"Damn it, go to hell, you filthy bitch, you fatherless bastard, your whole family..."
The woman, her wounds exposed, had bloodshot eyes and unleashed a barrage of profanities at Milair.
He is clearly a true expert in the language of the Grand Continent.
In the ten seconds or so, not a single sentence was repeated.
Milair remained expressionless and, following Luo Xiu's instructions, cut off the cloths covering the remaining men and the old beggar.
Without exception, they were all mushrooms.
Luo Xiu walked to the table, randomly selected one of the two dishes, and carried it to the three of them.
He gently lifted the lid of the dish.
It was quite obvious that the moment he lifted the lid, the eyes of the three bound men changed instantly.
Their eyes were filled with longing for the dish, but also with a hint of mockery and smugness.
It seemed to be mocking Luo Xiu for his carelessness and mistake.
I think Luo Xiu will definitely get caught if he opens the lid.
After all, they had seen many people who seemed powerful, but in the face of these prepared mushrooms, they all became prisoners of the mushrooms, trapped in a hell from which they could never escape.
But soon, the joy in their eyes froze.
Faced with the delicious and visually appealing braised chicken with mushrooms on the plate,
Luo Xiu's expression remained completely normal.
Moreover, Milair, who was standing next to him, did not show any change in expression.
"Mirel, let our hostess have a taste of the dishes we're having for today."
Luo Xiu laughed.
"Yes."
Milair nodded, picked up a piece of chicken and mushroom, and walked over to the woman with the pointed face and monkey-like features.
"No! No! This isn't my mushroom!!"
The woman cried out in terror.
Her expression was very strange at that moment.
His words seemed to express extreme fear of these mushrooms, but his expression was one of unparalleled fanaticism.
It seemed as if they couldn't wait to devour the chicken and mushrooms in one gulp.
"No, no! Damn it! These are those damned guys' mushrooms, not mine! I'm going to die, I'm going to die!!"
Tears streamed down the woman's face.
But her face had already moved closer to the chicken and mushrooms that Milair was holding.
Milair didn't move at all, and the woman, screaming in fear, moved closer to him.
Then, with a terrified scream, she took a bite of the mushroom.
She chewed, her expression one of pure bliss, her lips curving upwards in a smile.
But his eyes were filled with fear, and tears streamed down his face.
Then her body stiffened abruptly, a strange expression froze on her face, and she fell heavily to the ground, no longer breathing.
The mushrooms on her body withered instantly, as if they had shrunk.
"These mushrooms must be incredibly delicious."
Luo Xiu looked at the remaining two and said softly:
"Now, can you tell me about the story of this town?"
Chapter 72 The Course of the Disease in Mushroom Town (Read it today, brothers! Let's help the children!)
Faced with Luo Xiu's questioning, both of them looked terrified.
A long silence fell over the scene.
All that could be heard was the sound of the two of them swallowing.
"I, I'll go first."
The one who spoke was the dead woman's husband, the man with a face full of scars.
He glanced at the old beggar next to him, who seemed still immersed in fear, and spoke first.
"No problem, you go first."
Luo Xiu smiled and spoke.
The old beggar standing nearby only then realized what was happening and was filled with remorse.
"If I tell you, I'll survive, right?"
The man with a face full of scars spoke, his eyes fixed on Luo Xiu, seemingly worried that Luo Xiu would kill them all.
"If you don't want to say it, then let him say it."
Luo Xiu did not answer the man's question, but simply smiled and said...
The man's eyes flickered; he knew he had no room for negotiation.
Finally, he let out a long sigh and said:
"Kanriel, one of the top five cities in the kingdom, is most famous for two things: warlocks and mushrooms."
"I don't know anything about warlocks. I don't have the money or the talent. That's something for rich people."
"All I know is mushrooms."
When men talk about rich people, their tone is full of disdain and anger.
"Our mushrooms in Kanriel are famous for their deliciousness, and that's because we have a secret recipe."
The man looked at Luo Xiu, as if expecting Luo Xiu to ask what the secret recipe was.
But Luo Xiu just smiled, found a chair, sat down, and just looked at him.
Luo Xiu knew very well that men wanted to take the initiative in the conversation.
This butcher-like man is far more cunning than he appears.
The man, having failed to get what he wanted, could only look awkwardly at the ground and continue speaking:
"The secret is that all the mushrooms in Mushroom Town are grown using our own bodies."
Upon hearing this, the expression on the faces of some people in the room changed.
Luo Xiu looked at Milair, whose face was ashen, with pity.
He remembered that on the way to Kanril, Milair had repeatedly praised how delicious the mushrooms were in Kanril.
They say that once you've tried it, you'll absolutely love it.
