In Terra, she is a hunter and a bad woman.

In order to solve the personnel problem, the villages in other parts of Dahuang City, except for the central urban area, are built in a scattered manner.

Maria actually came here...

Why is this?

"I just happened to walk here."

Maria paused for a few seconds, then made up a lie awkwardly.

The year-old's expression also became a little subtle.

Happened to walk here?

You just wandered around aimlessly for dozens of miles?

Do you think this is reasonable?

But she also noticed Maria's slightly downcast eyes.

She was quick-witted and did not point out Maria's lie directly. Instead, after a moment of silence, she chuckled and shook her head.

"That's going to be troublesome for you... It's a bit difficult to get back to the city from here... If you don't mind, why don't you stay at my house today? There's no one else at my house anyway."

"also."

Maria thought for a few moments and nodded slightly.

Although she didn't have many requirements for a resting place, she had returned this time to investigate. There was no point in leaving early or late. She could just stay here and investigate the matter of the umbilical cord power underground...

……

Shu's room was not far from where the two people were at the moment.

It took less than half an hour for the two to arrive.

It was a fairly spacious three-story house.

The furniture in the house is very simple, most of it is handmade, and there are no extra decorations, making it look extremely plain.

But Shu was obviously very adaptable to such an environment. She smiled and put her backpack aside, then brought out a jar of wine and some side dishes from her kitchen and invited Maria to sit down.

"I don't have any snacks here... If you don't mind, you can eat some of these to fill your stomach first. When my brother comes back, we can eat together."

Shu smiled and still treated Maria as an ordinary person.

"……Um."

Maria nodded slightly, but her eyes were always on Shu's feet.

The girl was not wearing shoes. Her cute little feet were just stepping directly on the muddy ground. There was still some dirt on them. Her crystal clear toes tapped the ground with her ankles, creating an extremely strong visual effect with the black earth.

but……

None of this was Maria's focus.

She could see that there was a certain aura flowing down Shu's body into the ground, as if she was nourishing the earth with her own power.

This is not the first time Maria has seen this situation... In fact, the three-headed dog of Bolivar that she met at the beginning also used this method to protect his forest.

But at this time...

Maria blinked, then raised her head and looked at the other person.

"What's wrong?"

Shu didn't seem to notice Maria's gaze. He just smiled and poured a bowl of wine for each of them.

"We brew this stuff ourselves. It tastes great and is better for your health."

She said as she poured it out.

Maria could also see that the wine had a light beige tint.

Sniffed.

The taste of the wine is not strong, and there is a light sweetness when you take a sip.

“It’s rice wine~”

Shu looked at Maria's puzzled expression and explained with a chuckle.

Maria raised her head slightly.

"Do you drink often?"

In Maria's memory, he was not a person who particularly liked to drink.

For her, alcohol is more of a drink.

"That's not often."

After filling his own cup, Shu sat quietly opposite Maria.

The unique patterned arms are so unique...

"It's just that I think since we're here, how can we not have a drink? After all, it's considered a form of hospitality."

Shu continued speaking, his gentle eyes looking full of love.

"..."

Maria was silent again.

When she saw the other person, she had already vaguely understood what was wrong with Sui. She was also willing to respect this and not regard Sui and Shu in front of her as the same person.

But every move of millet is so similar to that of Sui.

It was as if I was facing a 6-year-old amnesiac version of myself.

This is really...

"call……"

Maria let out a light breath, looked at Shu who was sipping wine in front of her, and suddenly spoke.

"Do you have any connection with this land?"

"Eh?"

Shu was stunned.

She looked up in surprise and looked at the woman in front of her, her expression out of control for a moment.

But after just a moment, she smiled again with her eyes narrowed.

"I'm the main person in charge of this land... I don't take care of too many things, but you can basically come to me for any land-related work."

She thought Maria was asking her what her position was in the place.

"..."

But Maria said nothing and looked at the other person calmly.

This made Shu's expression stiffen slightly for a moment.

Then he gradually became serious.

"Did you notice anything?"

"……Um."

"You are such an amazing person."

Shu sighed twice and then raised his head.

Her connection with this land is very subtle. In fact, many Taoist priests from Yan Country have come to communicate with her over the years, but none of them have noticed the problems on her side.

Only my family members could notice some clues...but they were just some clues.

But...Maria suddenly pointed it out.

She could actually sense...

"can you see it?"

As she spoke, the toes of her toes gently slid across the sand on the ground.

At this moment, Maria also saw more clearly that the strange tattoo on the other person's body was slowly floating and blending into the ground...

"I've seen a giant beast before... using its own life to nourish the land."

"But... that doesn't seem to be the case with you?"

Maria tilted her head and looked at the girl in front of her.

This is actually what she cannot understand.

She could tell from the previous three-headed dog monster that it was using its own power to protect its land from natural disasters.

But this time... millet used its own power, but not to nourish the land.

Instead, it suppresses the things in the soil...

What is it?

"..."

Maria's words were very calm, but Shu concluded that Maria was indeed aware of what he was doing.

This made her surprised and a little alert.

"Who are you?"

An inexplicable sense of familiarity, a strong sense of perception, and suddenly appearing here.

Shuzhang couldn't believe it; it was just a wonderful coincidence... She had a feeling that Maria's existence wasn't some accident...

But in response to her question, Maria suddenly fell silent.

This made Shu vaguely aware that something was wrong.

To be honest, she still couldn't detect any malicious intent from Maria, but what she said was too sensitive.

Logically speaking, it is impossible for normal people to notice these things, right?

But she just knew...

"Did you come here for these things?"

She continued to ask.

But unfortunately, Maria's response was still silence.

This made Shu gradually alert.

not right...

Something is very wrong!

How weird!

This Maria...

Who is she? And what does she know?!

The table suddenly fell into a strange silence.

But the silence didn't last long, a male voice suddenly came.

"Sister, I'm here with the Heavenly Master of Baizao..."

A soft male voice sounded cautiously, and a tall man came into the living room with a middle-aged man.

When the two men saw Maria, they were both stunned.

A hint of confusion flashed across the tall man's face. Apparently, like his sister, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity with Maria.

But in contrast, the man called the Heavenly Master looked at Maria and his face changed drastically!

When everyone was confused, he lost his voice.

"General Zhengshou?! You're back?!"

……

There is almost no Yan people who don’t know this story.

About seven hundred years ago.
