24, Childe, you are blocking me from carrying water
The well is empty.
But Gu An knew very well that it was on his shoulders last night, and there was weight, and it was definitely not empty.
Visually, you can create illusions to confuse yourself, but tactilely, how to confuse yourself?
So what was it that I picked on my shoulders last night?
Gu An thought about it, picked up a stone in the yard, and threw it into the well.
"Knock~"
The stone fell to the bottom of the well with a dull sound.
There is nothing out of the ordinary.
After throwing a few more stones, still no abnormality, Gu An jumped into the well under Chen Muzhi's surprised gaze.
"Bang~"
With his feet on the solid ground at the bottom of the well, Gu An squatted down and touched the land, and then touched the wall of the well.
Very dry.
It means that the well has been dry for a long time.
Originally, Gu An was going to grope on the wall at the bottom of the well to see if there were any bricks similar to the mechanism, but since it had dried up for a long time, there was no need for this.
Tap your feet on the wall of the well and you'll be on the ground in a few steps.
"Big brother, what are you?"
Chen Muzhi asked suspiciously.
"Last night, when I was carrying water, you saw it too, right?"
Gu An patted the dust on his hands.
Chen Muzhi paused and nodded.
"But this well is dry, and when I went down just now, I checked it, and the land and walls of the well below were dry, and it had been dry for a long time. ”
Gu An said slowly.
Chen Muzhi frowned: "What we saw last night may be an illusion, just like you said, the scene you see is different from what I see." ”
Gu An shook his head and said, "I carried it on my shoulders last night, and there was weight, which means that it is definitely not empty." ”
"So, where does the water come from?"
Chen Muzhi scratched his head and said in confusion.
Gu An pondered for a long time: "Let's take a look at it in the evening." ”
Turned around and sat down directly by the well.
Chen Muzhi was dumbfounded: "Ah, big brother, you want to sit here until night!?"
"What's wrong?" Gu An said indifferently.
"Uh...... No, there's nothing wrong with that, just be happy, be happy!"
Sneering, Chen Muzhi reached out and touched the cold stone wall by the well, and also sat down.
"Aren't you going back? ”
"No, I think it's safest to be by your side, big brother!"
Seeing this, Gu An didn't care about Chen Muzhi.
Although it was only morning, Gu An had already begun to quietly wait for the night to come.
At the window of the room in the courtyard, five pairs of eyes stared at Gu An and Chen Muzhi outside.
"What are they doing?"
"They won't sit here all the time, will they?"
"Sit for a day?"
"Is it so powerful? So many people were stunned last night and eliminated directly, why don't we hide for two days?"
"It's fine, as long as you don't rob us. ”
......
In the afternoon, on the hillside.
Gu An and Chen Muzhi sat by the well all morning, and naturally fell into the eyes of Yang Ling and others.
"Hehe, interesting, seeing him like this is going to wait until the evening. Zhang Tianshuo stroked his beard and smiled.
"From last night, he was not small, but he did not know if tonight would be as calm as last night. ”
Yang Ling said pointedly.
......
The night quietly flowed into the resentment village.
Many of the rooms had their doors closed, and this time even the windows were closed.
They all thought that if they stayed in the house for two days, they would naturally be able to advance.
But tonight, it is not destined to be peaceful.
"Second one, it's time to fertilize. ”
"Got it!"
“......”
"Xiaoxi, have you seen my little peach?"
"See! in ...... Huh? What about Xiao Tao? You were still playing with Xiao Xi just now? Oh! Xiao Xi remembered, Aunt Yun, don't worry, Xiao Xi will help you dig him out!"
“......”
"According to the pottery, the firewood is gone, and then cut some back. ”
"Gotcha, I'm going to get a knife!"
“......”
The dark and cold voice came out of the stone tablet again, swinging through the streets and alleys, and drifting into the houses of the village.
The young people who had not yet slept on the street and in the house could not help but shiver.
One by one, they slowly floated out of the swirling gate, back to where they were yesterday.
In the room where Gu An stayed yesterday.
Today without Gu An and Chen Muzhi, the atmosphere in the whole room is not as depressing as yesterday, and the tension of yesterday has changed, and the remaining three people are in the mood to chat together.
After chatting and chatting, it came to Gu An.
"Eh, you say, why haven't Gu An and Chen Muzhi come back yet?"
"Didn't someone say it during the day, and the two of them sat on the edge of a dry well in a courtyard behind them. ”
"Gu An is no problem, yesterday he was the only one who communicated with those weird people, and he didn't faint yet. ”
"Nonsense, he's so ruthless during the day, can he not be bold? Besides, he's still fast, maybe he's even killed someone!"
At this time, they also heard voices coming from outside.
"Hey, be quiet, it seems like it's time. ”
"It's okay, we don't go out, it's okay. ”
"Knock knock!"
Suddenly, there was a sudden knock on the door.
The three teenagers looked at each other in the dark.
"Gu An, they're back?"
"I guess, I'll open the door and see. ”
The boy near the bed by the door rolled over and got up.
"Knock knock. ”
There were only two breaths between them, and the gentle knock on the door rang out again.
"It's coming. ”
"Squeak!"
The boy frowned slightly and opened the door.
The next moment, dumbfounded.
Dressed in a gray robe, holding a firewood knife in his hand, and carrying an empty basket behind him, a man whose face he could not see clearly appeared in front of him.
"My name is Tao Zhi, Childe, do you have firewood here?"
The cold voice resounded in the ears of the three teenagers in the room.
"Firewood...... Firewood?
In a panic, the young man in front of the door slammed and grabbed the door and wanted to close it.
but he was held back by the man at the door.
"Childe, but I've seen it. ”
Tao Zhi stretched out his empty left hand and pointed into the room.
"Where...... Where?"
The boy looked back mechanically.
Did he want a table?
"To ...... Take it!"
When the boy turned his head again and saw the person in front of him, his pupils dilated instantly.
Dense scars covered the entire face, irregular eyes bulged, grinning into an unknown number of petals, and slowly exhaled.
"Childe...... Then I'm in......"
"Ahh
......
Chen Muzhi felt the cool breeze blowing from nowhere, and tightened his body.
"Big brother, how long do we have to wait?"
"It's coming. ”
Gu An closed his eyes, clasped his arms and said a word.
Wow~~Wow~~
The wind suddenly became stronger than before.
Blowing the withered branches of the trees on the side, sizzling.
Suddenly, Gu An suddenly opened his eyes.
"Bang!"
The courtyard door opened.
Tao Yun carried the bucket and entered the courtyard.
Unlike yesterday, this time he was followed by a woman in red.
"Giggles!"
The woman in red twisted her body, shook her head and floated to the door of the room in the courtyard.
"Knock knock!"
Knock on the door.
Tao ran to Gu An, and said quietly.
"Childe...... You're holding me the water......"
