Two hundred and thirty. The beginning of change

It wasn't the vibration of the carriage that made Lu Li inadvertently look at the wrong direction.

The first line is indeed strangely written with two identical sentences.

Lu Li didn't know whether Remi, who wrote the text, was using repeated words to express her gratitude, or whether she was expressing her gratitude to Lu Li's two kinds of helpers respectively.

But one fact has emerged before our eyes.

This is a reply letter.

Remi and Jimmy received Lu Li's letter and sent a reply.

The carriage suddenly stopped. Lu Li raised his eyes and looked outside the carriage. Several carriages were blocking the front. There seemed to be some commotion further ahead. Lu Li ignored it and continued to look.

The second line is still a double article that seems to be a metaphor for something.

【We have found the right way out of this dilemma, all relying on the information you provide.】

[As you said, Jimmy's problem appears in his other body. I can't completely solve this problem, but luckily I can alleviate it, and you can also use this method, Lu Li. ]

[Remember what I said before, maybe there is a way to restore sanity? I used this method. After I tried it, Jimmy became much more awake. He knew that it was you who provided the analysis and asked me to thank you. I

It's too foreign to tell him... We are good friends, aren't we?】

[Jimmy’s current condition is not suitable for walking around or entering big cities. We plan to go further and stay in Watchtown to rest there for a while until Jimmy’s condition improves. 】

[We don’t know how long we will stay in the town, so in case you are impatient, I am going to tell you a way, a way to restore your sanity.]

The carriage trembled slightly and moved forward again.

In the second half of the letter, Remy wrote a strange text.

Lu Li could read and understand the content of this text, but its weirdness made the surrounding area seem to be cast in a leaden shadow.

There is nothing wrong with the text itself, the problem is with this paragraph.

Remi told Lu Li in the letter that the way to restore his sanity was... to eat weird things.

Yes, edible.

The really weird thing is that this method is indeed feasible.

At the end of the letter, Remi looked forward to Lu Li's reply.

After turning to the back and seeing no other words, Lu Li put the letter away and put it in his arms.

Lu Li will consider it, but will not do it hastily.

His sanity is not yet high enough to take risks, and he also needs to check the real feasibility of the method, such as whether anyone has tried similar behavior before.

Considering that the first few generations of demon slayers have been exploring this aspect, maybe they have made similar attempts.

After a while, the carriage arrived at Elm Street. Lu Li saw some night watchmen demolishing infected houses in the drizzle.

Drive straight through Elm Street and enter the elm forest.



Towards the afternoon, the carriage arrived at the cliff and stopped in front of the slope.

Lu Li tied the reins and walked towards the cliff.

The reverberating sound of chiseling loomed into the ears, and together with the jingling sound, Anna's figure appeared.

She told Lu Li that there was nothing unusual after he left, and that the four Jones brothers had been working in the cave.

"Where's Annie?"

"Her breath is protected by the elm forest, but she is still sleeping and does not answer me..."

Walking towards the cave, the sound of chiseling became clearer. Anna hid herself again and followed Lu Li into the cave.

Boom--Boom--Boom--Boom--

The sound of chiseling continued to reverberate in the cave. The four Jones brothers were surrounded in the depths of the cave. The iron pickaxes in their hands rubbed against the rock wall, bringing down debris and occasionally a few sparks.

Large pieces of broken stone were piled in the corner, and there were several piles outside the cave.

The interior of the cave has begun to take shape, and a half-meter-deep hole has been dug into the cellar. If the progress does not slow down, perhaps they can complete the digging before tomorrow evening.

Lu Li's shadow stretched deep under the oil lamp. Sensing the person coming, the four Jones brothers stopped and looked.

The boss put down his pickaxe and walked towards Lu Li. He was naked from the waist up in the slightly cool cave, and his strong body exuded a strong sense of warmth.

"Is it too late?" Lu Li asked.

"It's faster than expected. The cave is not a whole piece of rock. There is a lot of soil and gravel that is easy to dig. With any luck, we can complete it at noon tomorrow." The boss replied with his chest heaving and panting. A drop of sweat fell from his forehead and fell into his eyes.

Let him squint his eyes slightly.

Lu Li nodded: "Then it's still two days' reward."

The boss grinned.

Lu Li turned to ask: "Do you know any craftsmen?"

Lu Li's generosity made the boss feel very good, and he quickly replied: "Of course, what do you want to do?"

"I need to build a seawater distillation device for the fireplace."

"I'm sorry...what did you say?"

"Introducing a craftsman who does good work and is quick."

"Okay, when do you need it?"

"Take me with you when you get back in the evening."

"no problem."

After a brief conversation, the boss returned to the depths of the cave to continue working, while Lu Li exited the cave where the clanging noises continued. He gradually moved the furniture from the carriage into the cave and stacked it in a corner where it would not hinder the workers.

While the four Jones brothers marveled at Lu Li's strength, they were also curious about Lu Li's purpose in preparing these things.

It took a few minutes to empty the carriage, and Lu Li and Anna returned to the carriage. The noise of chiseling in the cave made it difficult to stay inside for a long time.

Anna held one of the books bought by Lu Li and seemed to like it very much. Lu Li raised the light of the oil lamp a little and picked up today's newspaper.

[Zernst Port lost contact!!!]

Lu Li was slightly startled and did not read the content. Instead, he opened two other newspapers.

[Zernst Port was attacked by a strange attack!]

[Loss of contact with Zenster Port on Allen Peninsula!]

Lu Li roughly scanned the content and found that the news was roughly the same: Zernst was suddenly attacked by something very scary four days ago, and subsequently lost contact, with only a few survivors escaping the city.

The "Investigator Weekly" had already reported these news on Monday, and the three newspapers seemed to have republished the news at that time after briefly reviewing it.

Perhaps to prevent ordinary people from being attacked the moment they hear about that existence, or perhaps because they are worried about causing public panic and riots, the three newspapers did not mention the murderer behind the fall of Zernst Port: the terrifying faceless giant.

Lu Li thought that this incident would not appear in popular newspapers, but would spread by word of mouth as time went by. However, three newspapers coincidentally published the horrific incident that occurred in Zernst.

The actions of the three major newspapers that reported the incident at the same time were too coincidental, as if they had received some kind of instructions and then released information to the public.

Lu Li felt a certain urgency from these actions, a rush to make amends after the plan was disrupted.

Looking up, I saw the gray world outside the carriage, with illusory tentacles on the horizon extending deep into the clouds.
