The food was finally eaten by cheese and the others. The dead did not need to eat, and leaving the food here would only attract wild animals and increase unnecessary risks. Jian Qi was somewhat resistant to this kind of burial. In his opinion, death and birth were the most serious things that life could experience, and should be remembered by others. If this poor woman had no relatives to help her hold a funeral, at least they should give her a decent coffin and grave, and carve a tombstone to tell the people passing by what kind of people are sleeping here, which is considered to be the ultimate righteousness. But no one except him did this.

"There is no need to do this. When life disappears from her body, the things left are just pieces of meat and bones. Those things were originally from her mother eating and drinking when she was nurturing her, and now they should return to all things. Why use the coffin to force a person who has left here?" Cheese's words made Jian Qi think, but he still showed some hesitation when he left.

"If this is the case, wouldn't man be the same as the beasts and plants? If we do not try to keep the dead, when our memories of them disappear, wouldn't they be as if they had never existed?"

The answer to this question is Keiras. The tone of the cat fairy is rare to be serious. "You have a dream and become another person in the dream. When you wake up, where did the dreamer go? When you are in the dream, where did the dreamer go? Life appears and disappears, and a new life is born from the ashes. Does life really exist? Does the person who speaks now really exist? If it exists, why do you need to prove its existence? If it does not exist, why do you need to prove its existence? Since neither her existence nor non-existence needs to be proved, isn't the tombstone just a decoration for others?"

Jian Qi blinked and stopped talking. In his impression, it was normal for a person to erect a monument when he died, because he was born into a huge family, and the family needed to remember and inherit its members in this way. People who died suddenly outside were considered the greatest misfortune, and even the clan would send people to take the bodies of the Hui tribes. He did not think this was wrong, because it built his family and built the craftsmanship and tradition of the Sword Gate. But he could not deny Kelas's statement. Perhaps there was more than one answer to this matter. This was not the Sword Gate, and the rules inside the gate should not apply to this.

After the small episode ended, the group did not return to Jiefa Town, but entered a forest. There was a large open space in the middle of the woods. The problem was that the maze of shrubs that should have been standing in the open space and the logging huts in the center of the labyrinth were gone, leaving only large areas of black ash and unburned coke. Obviously, it was someone who burned something last night after Ata left.

"You did destroy that textile machine, right?" Cheese walked to the open space, squatted down and stretched out some ashes. He rubbed the debris with his fingers, and even put them under his nose and smelled them.

Atta frowned slightly, not because of the wizard's suspicion, but because she was recalling last night's scene, "I split the thing as you told me, and then destroyed every part with Flakrag. At least when I left, there was no abnormality in the thing in my eyes. Actually, I thought about letting go of the burning machine, but Gorli's condition was too bad, so it was not implemented."

"You look no problem, but it's fine. I've seen that thing. Although it's powerful, it's fragile." Cheese bounced off the ashes from his fingertips and continued to walk towards the center of the open space. There was still a trace of the house that once existed. "Even the skeleton is not left, this fire is big enough. But except for the fact that it has not affected other places, there is no fire in the town. It seems that there are still people paying attention to this place and don't want more people to know about it. Did you encounter any trouble or abnormalities when you came here yesterday?"

"This." Ata said, throwing a cloth bag to the mage. The latter caught it and opened it. It was the doll arm that was cut off by the female swordsman last night. The blade spit out from his palm was still flashing with an unknown light. Cheese took out the cut-off arm and studied it carefully from various angles. His fingers randomly tapped it a few times, and several compositions bounced off on his arm, revealing the structure inside.

"How many such things are there?" After a brief investigation, the mage had already made a preliminary judgment. He temporarily lowered the doll's arm slightly and said to Ata who was surrounded by others.

"One, this one almost killed me." This is somewhat exaggerated. To be fair, if Ata and the doll fight head-on in a fair way, her victory would be much greater. The problem is that not much of the battles in this world are fair, and in terms of concealment and raiding ability, the equipment and ability of the doll are enough to threaten the lives of most people.

"Normal. This puppet has undergone specialized transformation and pursues speed and concealment extremely. I guess it has no more than three armed forces on it, and it is so light that it is scary?" Although in a questionable tone, in fact, there is not much proof in the mage's words. He has the knowledge of this kind of creation, so he can quickly identify the characteristics and extraordinary aspects of this wreckage. But just like in spells and prophecies, he cannot compare with the curse crows and sleepers who are both gray robes. If cheese really wants to create such things, he cannot do it. Therefore, what can be done must be an expert.

Could it be a gray robe? No, there are very few gray robes proficient in this type of thing. Most apprentices of the gray tower tend to not rely on too many external objects. After all, the gray tower is located in a bitter and cold place, and it is not convenient to study a lot of materials. Moreover, although the workmanship of this puppet is exquisite, it seems to be just a pediatric level in the magic level. The rough magic is combined with the workmanship of experts and an inconsistent creation.

"Do you think it is possible that it will be the same as the textile machine? I mean, they are all magical creatures, and they all appear in the same place, will it be..." Ata said her guess. This guess immediately aroused the reaction of Jian Qi and Kelas. Although the cat fairy was far away at that time, what he heard was the same as his companions.

"The river monster said that she got the textile machine from someone else, along with this plan. She called that person 'his', so that should be a male among the sex creatures." Jian Qi added immediately.
