A Beekeeper in a Magical World Chapter 86: Miscellaneous news from Blackstone Town

"What happened to the Ford family's youngest son?"

"It must have been cursed! He seems to have changed into a different person. He keeps wandering around, muttering about going to the Black Forest... In short, we should not go near the Black Forest recently. There may be dirty things in it."

"But the Ford family announced that they had asked a doctor in the town to see him. Little Ford is doing fine, but he is just a little weak..."

"Of course I say this to the outside world, but if he is really normal, is it necessary to lock him up?"

"Maybe I just woke up and felt dizzy, and it will be fine after a while."

"It's possible, but until the truth comes out, we'd better stay away from the Fords."

……

Carter heard what passers-by were discussing and fell into deep thought.

"Resurrected from the dead?" Cole walked beside Carter carrying a large bag of things. He seemed effortless and was still listening to the passers-by. "Did Little Ford become a zombie?"

Carter shook his head and said: "Zombies don't have their own thoughts. From the state they described, Ford has a clear goal after resurrection... more like a resurrected corpse."

"Resurrected corpse? What do you mean?"

"To put it simply, it is to use a special ritual to summon the killed soul back to the world from the nine hells to take revenge on the enemy who killed him. During the revenge period, the soul will remain immortal until the enemy is killed. , or time for revenge runs out."

Carter tried to put it as simply as possible, but Cole still looked confused when he heard it: "In short...it's not a good thing, right?"

"The Resurrection Corpse was created using taboo techniques. It is naturally taboo and should not exist in this world... But this is just my guess. The Resurrection Corpse has not appeared for a long time. I don't think there are any in Blackstone Town. Someone who can create a resurrected corpse."

"So you are showing off your knowledge again, right." Cole rolled his eyes.

But he had to admit that some of the weird things his companion said always aroused his curiosity: "Have you ever seen a resurrected corpse?"

Carter shook his head: "I have only read relevant descriptions in literature. Even if it is really a resurrected corpse, the Ford family's approach is the best choice. As long as he is locked up like now, after a certain period of time, he will no longer belong to The souls here will naturally leave. Moreover, the resurrected corpse only suspects strong hatred of the target and generally does not involve innocent people."

"That's fine."

"But be careful, if you get involved in one of his revenge plans, whether it is to help or hinder it, then you will definitely be involved again in his next revenge action."

"Necessary?"

"Well, no matter how careful you are, you will still be involved due to some kind of chance and coincidence. It is inevitable. This is another characteristic of the resurrected zombie. It is similar to a curse, or the law of cause and effect, until the resurrected zombie takes revenge. This contract-like curse will disappear only if it succeeds or the revenge time is over."

"What if I make myself half dead and unable to move in bed? Will I still get involved?"

Carter glanced at him: "I believe that even your body can always serve some purpose."

Cole laughed a few times and stopped discussing this topic.

……

Hua Mi told Qi Xiaozhi and set off for Blackstone Town.

He knew the general direction of Blackstone Town, and directly filled up three powerful bee swarms. He seemed to be stepping on a black cloud under his feet, heading in the direction of the target.

It’s cool to be able to move forward in a straight line.

However, the flying speed of the powerful swarm is still a major flaw.

Three powerful bee swarms, with full horsepower, can only reach about ten meters per second at most.

This speed is equivalent to human running speed, which is actually not bad strictly speaking.

But flying in the sky feels different from walking on the ground.

In the sky, if your speed is less than 70 miles, you will not feel free and relaxed, and you will feel slow, mainly because the sky is empty.

Beyond the forest range, there is a rolling open area.

If it were in other seasons, it would be endless green wilderness.

It is now the severe ice age. Looking down on the earth, large areas of white snow are like patches of wool blankets.

In the area where the snow melted, yellow weeds were exposed.

And some of the trails that were crushed by people's bicycles are also muddy.

Blackstone Town is only about ten kilometers away from the Black Forest. Hua Mi went fast and slowly along the way, stopping for a break from time to time. It only took less than an hour to see the destination.

The first thing I saw was a large farmland planting area in the periphery, which was basically in a semi-abandoned state. This bad season was really not suitable for planting operations.

The ice age was very long, and after the ice age, there was a period of chaos with a harsher environment.

It will definitely have a great impact on agriculture.

Without support from other industries, Blackstone Town would have been very difficult during this period.

Hua Mi was flying in mid-air and could almost see the topography of the entire town clearly.

The area is not large, it can be considered a small or medium-sized town at most. Compared with the Black Forest, looking for the bookstore www.zhaoshuyuan.com is like a sesame next to a basketball.

In the middle is an open area with an uncarved black boulder standing upright. It is surrounded by densely packed houses, most of which are buildings with red tile spiers. The colors look bright against the surrounding white snow.

Hua Mi also discovered several large ladder-shaped pits not far from the town. Heavy transport vehicles shuttled through them, including machinery and domesticated large beasts.

Piles of black ore are transported to the surface.

In order not to attract attention, Hua Mi fell from the sky when she was still some distance away from the town and entered the town on foot.

On such a cold day, even in broad daylight, the streets seemed deserted.

Hua Mi searched several stores, but none of them sold fertilizers or other products.

Also, we can’t farm at this time of year.

And according to the shop owner, Blackstone Town now relies on mining blackstone mines as its main livelihood. Agriculture has actually been sluggish, and the food it needs depends largely on trading.

Hua Mi asked a shop owner for news about Hilya.

The news that she was addicted to alchemy spread in the town, and the fact that the Ford family's youngest son came back from the dead became the two most recent rumors in Blackstone Town.

"It's best to stay away from her, something is wrong with her." The boss pressed his upper body on the counter and looked at him mysteriously, "It should be said that the entire atmosphere of Blackstone Town is not right. I often feel a chill recently. , I often wake up in the middle of the night for no reason. I guess there is something unclean in the black forest that has spread to the town, and I always feel that something big is about to happen!"

“If you cover yourself more thickly when you sleep at night, you may not wake up from the cold.”

"..."

The boss rolled his eyes at him, his expression seemed to say, you are so boring.
