Chapter 340: Clouds Gather (Part 1)

It's a dimly lit little house with integrated kitchen and living room, next to a toilet and a very small bedroom. The layout of the whole house is very simple, and the furniture is very cheap.

Looking down the door of the small bedroom, there is a folding bed of average quality against the wall. The thin little Nezha was lying on the side of the bed against the wall, and the surrounding environment was too dark to see his expression at the moment. There were no windows in this room, so he could only be vaguely seen shaking his head and staring at the candle in his hand.

Now that he's been out of the small supermarket for more than an hour, he's feeling a little uncomfortable. In fact, he was not very good at describing this feeling, but he knew that he really wanted to return to Chen Yuan's side again.

He blinked his big black eyes, and his expression was a little glazed.

In the dark vision, the candle stood quietly in his hand.

He naturally remembered the first time he saw the candle, remembered that Shen Jingyuan took the initiative to give him one, and remembered the first time he slept on a bunk with Yang Wanli, he remembered a lot......

Although it was only three days, there are still many images that can make him feel warm in retrospect.

The nose is a little sore, and the eyes are moist unconsciously.

The already unclear vision became even more blurred.

He reached out and rubbed his eyes, then felt the touch of tears.

He blinked in confusion, as if he didn't know that the clear liquid was his own tears.

He got up from the bed and sat up straight against the corner.

After a while, the tears stopped, and the pure darkness returned to the vision.

He looked down at the candle he held in his hand in the darkness and couldn't help but wonder a little.

After thinking about it carefully, he slowly realized that the candle only emits fire after it has been lit.

Thinking of this, he nodded vigorously.

Where can there be a candle lit?

He thought about it again in his mind, and the images of everyone lighting candles came to mind.

Noting the appearance of the lighter, he stepped out of the darkness into the bedroom.

The candle was still clenched in his little hand, which was slightly blue.

Walking to the living room, it was not so dark because of the window.

With a little habitation, you can see a lot of things, and although it is not very clear, you can at least tell what is what. Little Nezha stood in the living room and looked around blankly, but he didn't see anything like a lighter.

He scratched his hair and walked out of the doorway.

He walked along the dark street, neither fast nor slow.

With a vague impression from his memory, he came to the door of a cigarette hotel.

However, it was so dark that the clouds obscured the moon and there was barely a faint light.

So he held the candle in his hand and lay down on the cash register of the store in a daze.

With a slight blink of his eyes, he soon fell into a deep sleep.

A few hours later, a glimmer of light began to glow in the dark sky.

Large clouds floated slowly on one side of the horizon, and it seemed that it would not be long before they completely obscured the early morning daylight.

Little Nezha is still asleep, I don't know what kind of dream he had, and there is a bright smile on the corner of his mouth all the time.

Time continues to move forward.

The rising sun was completely blocked by the clouds that floated over, and the whole land was darkened a lot. The clouds were getting thicker and thicker, and the wind was getting stronger.

"Whew...... Whew......"

The howling wind blew in from the doorway with a bitter chill.

Little Nezha smashed his mouth, and then slowly opened his big eyes.

He sat up straight, reached out and rubbed it in a daze, then licked his lips and wiped the saliva from his lips. Looking down at the candle, it was still in his left hand.

Thinking a little clearer, he nodded to himself, and then continued to look for a lighter that could light a candle according to the thoughts in his mind.

Due to the cloudy weather, the light was dim throughout the room.

He searched for it and finally found a box of lighters in a drawer.

His expression was visibly excited, he took one out of it, and ran out of the smoke hotel in a happy manner.

Running down the street for a while, he crouched down at the corner of the street.

He looked down at the candle in his left hand and then at the lighter in his right.

Blinking a little dazedly, he slowly scratched the lighter's wheel.

The wheel turned, but no flames rose.

He frowned slightly, and tried to recall Shen Jingyuan's appearance and movements when she used the lighter.

After mentally checking it again, he scratched the lighter's wheel again.

The flame finally rose from the mouth of the lighter, and he was just grinning when a gust of wind blew, and the faint flame was extinguished in an instant.

His expression was a little strange, and he continued to repeat the action just now, but after repeated attempts several times, the small flame on the lighter was easily blown out by the cold wind around him.

He touched his head in annoyance.

He didn't continue to stubbornly light the lighter, but stared at the lighter carefully for a while.

In his impression, he seemed to have seen Shen Jingyuan press other places on the lighter.

He flipped the lighter in his hand, and found the small button that adjusted the size of the flame.

After a moment's hesitation, he pushed the little button to the end of the other side.

After thinking about it, he felt that there should be no problem this time.

So he pressed the pulley of the lighter and slashed down hard.

A slender flame burst out and almost burned his hair.

He didn't expect this change at all, and he was so frightened that he let go of his hand.

The lighter fell to the ground, and the burning flames were quickly extinguished by the wind.

He blinked in horror, his chest rising and falling, as if he hadn't figured out for a moment how the flame could suddenly become so big.

As he was wondering, he faintly heard a strange sound coming from the other side of the Corniche.

He stood up blankly and looked in that direction.

In the field of vision, at the end of that street, the silhouettes of several off-road vehicles gradually appeared.

He clenched the candle in his hand and subconsciously hid.

……

Because Xiao Nezha took the initiative to leave the small supermarket, everyone didn't sleep very well this night.

When we woke up in the morning, everyone's mood was a little low.

Shen Jingyuan distributed the breakfast cookies to everyone one by one, and then she walked next to Chen Yuan and asked in a low voice, "Chen Yuan, is there any way to keep Nezha by our side......

She took a small bite of the biscuit, and her willow eyebrows frowned slightly and blinked.

Chen Yuan smiled helplessly, "I also want to keep him, but there is really no substantive way now." ”

"Really......"

Shen Jingyuan's voice sounded very depressed.

"Don't be so upset. ”

Chen Yuan gently rubbed her head, "Actually, I also have some ideas. ”

"What do you think?"

Chen Yuan pressed his neck, "It may be a bit unrealistic to say, but I think there is still hope." He paused and continued, "For example, suppress his impulses by some means, so that he can not turn into a zombie form. ”

Shen Jingyuan nodded dumbly, "Yes, it would be nice if it could really be like this." ”

"yes. ”

Chen Yuan responded.

Jiang Lian put down the pure milk in her hand, "Then do you have any specific ideas now, I also think this direction is feasible." ”

Chen Yuan shook his head helplessly, "Nezha himself is not familiar with his own situation, so I don't know where to start now." ”

Li Qiluo sat aside with a frown, and was also actively thinking of ways to follow them.

Yang Wanli threw away the garbage bag in his hand and slowly walked to the door, "Otherwise, let's continue to ambush those people in the past two days, if they haven't shown up yet, we will go and find Nezha back, and then help him slowly understand his physical condition, maybe we will be able to find a way soon." ”

Chen Yuan thought about it seriously and said, "Brother Wan, I think we can try this idea, what do you think?"

The three women replied almost in unison: "Of course I agreed!"
