157 Strange Village: Preface

-------------------------------------------

Xiao Ran opened his eyes suddenly.

The cement gray ceiling is the color of putty that has never been painted.

"Huh?" a puzzle snorted from Xiao Ran's nose.

Xiao Ran sat up suddenly, the scene in front of her was strange and familiar to her.

'Am I dreaming?'

"Shhh

'How is this, how can it ......'

Xiao Ran suddenly opened the small drawer of the bedside table.

There, lying quietly, lay the rag doll that was about to disappear (mò) in her memory.

Since leaving that small village, Xiao Ran hadn't seen it again.

"Am I reborn!" Xiao Ran patted his head and smirked.

This unadorned bedroom is exactly where Xiao Ran lived as a child.

Looking at the familiar bedside table, the familiar old desk, the familiar ......

The memories buried in the old days have opened the sealed box.

Xiao Ran was still looking forward to whether to take the lead in the future, whether it would be better to be a good lady or a shareholder of Ali Mama, when she suddenly noticed the vanity mirror hanging on the wall.

"Wait, my body, why?" The reflection in the mirror is not the immature Xiao Ran of childhood.

Tingting is jade, concave and convex, and has a big wave beauty that obviously does not belong to this era.

"Hmm...... It turned out to be a crossing......"

"The daughter of the young tooth has suddenly grown up, if I let my parents see it, I'm afraid I will be shocked......" Xiao Ran said to himself with a wry smile.

'Now go downstairs, if I meet them, how should I explain......' Xiao Ran's fingers wrapped his hair around one circle after another, and his heart was entangled.

"Forget it, throw aside the headache in advance, there will always be a solution when the time comes~" It seems that he can't think of any good way, Xiao Ran simply broke the jar and fell.

-------------------------------------------

"Squeak-"

"Squeak-"

The old wooden staircase trembled, and there was a groan that seemed to be overwhelmed and about to break.

"This voice, I really miss it~" Xiao Ran sighed.

Coming down the wooden staircase, you will find the lobby of the house.

"Aren't they there? is this the time?" Xiao Ran looked beyond the open wooden door and into the sky in the distance.

In the eye, it is the gray of the depression.

"Well...... I don't know what time it is. Xiao Ran muttered, didn't stay in the lobby for long, and walked straight to the wooden door.

"Looking at it now, my family used to be really poor, let alone a wall clock, even if there were few light bulbs. Xiao Ran stood in his front yard, looked back at the second-story cottage behind him, and commented.

"Huh, you're ......?"

At this time, a figure appeared at the edge of Xiao Ran's line of sight.

Xiao Ran turned his head sideways and looked fixedly, it seemed to be a middle-aged woman, but because of the relationship between her back and her back, Xiao Ran didn't see her appearance clearly.

"Is it the third aunt next door?" Xiao Ran thought to herself.

The small village where Xiao Ran lived when he was a child was originally a wasteland.

In a family surnamed Xiao who fled from other places, after settling here, it slowly grew branches and leaves, and after three or four generations of changes, the small Xiaojia Village was born.

Therefore, the people in the village can more or less climb the slightest bit of kinship.

Xiao Ran saw that the third aunt seemed to be busy there, so she walked around curiously, wanting to take a look.

This detour is going to be a big deal!

Xiao Ran, who got closer, was horrified to find that the third aunt in front of him had no face!

Her face is as smooth as snow as a puppet mannequin in a clothing store!

What's even more terrifying is that the third aunt seems to have noticed Xiao Ran's existence and raised her head to 'look' over!

The plain white without appearance made Xiao Ran take a big step back suddenly!

However, probably because the third aunt didn't seem to notice any difference between Xiao Ran and her, she lowered her head again and sorted out the tribute at hand.

The third aunt has a blood-red incense candle in the bamboo strip in hand, which is the kind commonly used in the temple!

The treacherous scene shocked Xiao Ran speechless.

'Get out, get out of here!' Xiao Ran shouted in his heart.

Gently moving his steps, Xiao Ran stepped back and handled it gently, lest he disturb the faceless person in front of him!

Slowly, Xiao Ran retreated to a place where he couldn't see the third aunt.

Xiao Ran clutched his chest that was heaving because of fear, with a look of disbelief on his face.

"What's going on here!" At this time, Xiao Ran was even worried that the voice would attract the attention of the faceless people, so that he only dared to whisper when he spoke.

Suddenly, Xiao Ran felt something in his heart and turned his head suddenly!

This turn of his head frightened the frightened Xiao Ran so much that he almost exclaimed!

The several figures that came into view turned out to be all faceless people!

They are all villagers of Xiaojia Village, and they are the same as the third aunt, and they also have this bamboo strip in their hands, which contains different things, and they are also all sacrifices and tributes!

At this time, these phaseless people went in and out of an old house, and it turned out that Xiao Ran had just retreated to the vicinity of the ancient house in Xiaojia Village unconsciously!

Xiao Ran couldn't suppress the fear in his heart anymore, turned around in a panic and fled!

'Where the hell have I been!'

'This is definitely not Xiaojia Village!'

Xiao Ran was running, shouting in his heart.

"It's out!" Looking at the big pond not far away, Xiao Ran smiled with joy.

This pond is located at the entrance of the village, and the path from the village is built on its edge.

"This ...... What is ......?"

Xiao Ran finally reached the end of the village.

At this time, Xiao Ran was shocked and found that on the path away from the village, there was an obvious dividing line!

It was a barrier, connecting heaven and earth.

Taking a step back is still clear, further is blurry.

The past passed, there was a fog that could not be seen for ten meters.

The treacherous situation made Xiao Ran not know what to do.

After hesitating, Xiao Ran still stretched out his right hand to the treacherous fog.

"Huh?" Xiao Ran sighed softly, she felt that after her right hand touched the mist, there was no imaginary sense of obstruction.

'Go in ......'

'Still ......'

Xiao Ran turned his head and glanced at the small village behind him, standing at the entrance of the village, far away, he could only see a corner of the ancient house.

As soon as he thought of the treacherous situation in the ancient mansion, Xiao Ran finally made up his mind, no longer hesitated, and plunged headlong into the treacherous mist.

As soon as he entered, Xiao Ran found himself disoriented.

The front and back are all white.

It's like being in the deep sea, and the fear of loneliness swims into your heart.

"It's okay, I can see the road under my feet......" Xiao Ran muttered quietly.

At this time, the only thing that reassured Xiao Ran was the dirt road that stretched forward under his feet.
