Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Horror of the Strange Village 3
After walking for more than 50 minutes, there were less than 20 minutes left in the countdown to Ling Wei's serial mission, and when she walked out of the bamboo forest, Ling Wei finally saw the third person besides herself and Lei Lei. I have to say that Ling Wei walked www.biquge.info way was quite frightening, because although in the bamboo forest, there was still a tree lantern on a walk of a while, but because the time was really late, and the location of the bamboo forest was also a little off. So Ling Wei basically didn't meet anyone along the way. If it weren't for Lei Lei chatting with him from time to time and giving himself courage, I'm afraid Ling Wei would have given up the task a long time ago and retreated. Because Ling Wei is not afraid of heaven and earth, the only thing she is afraid of is the dark.
No, seeing an old woman in her 50s not far away, washing something by the river, Ling Wei didn't think about it, so she walked forward directly.
The old woman was busy washing clothes, and because the night was silent, she heard Ling Wei approaching her after a while. It was a big night, and the old woman thought she had met some gangster. But when she saw that it was a girl in her 20s who was approaching her, she unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
"Little girl, if you don't go home this big night, where are you going?" The old woman asked kindly.
"Old woman, my brother and I are lost, and we don't know where the nearest station is here?" Ling Wei bit her lip and asked a little embarrassed.
"Little girl, this is far from the station, and now the station is closed, I think you will stay at my house for one night, and tomorrow morning, I will find someone to take you to the station!" The old woman thought for a moment and said enthusiastically.
Just when Ling Wei was hesitating whether to agree, the voice of the system came again very opportunely: "The second ring of the serial quest has been completed, and now the third ring quest is opened: enter the Lost Soul Village with Grandma Sun."
Hearing the system's prompt, Ling Wei nodded directly, and then followed the old woman into a quiet small village not far away.
"Mother-in-law, why did you come out to wash clothes alone at this big night?" Ling Wei asked curiously.
"There is no one at home, and there is a little grandson who has just turned one year old, and I have to be busy with farm work, take care of my grandson, and take care of housework, and only have time to come out at night to wash clothes or something." The old woman smiled kindly.
"That's right! What about the rest of your family, old woman? Ling Wei then asked.
"My son and daughter-in-law have gone to work in other places, and they only go home once a year, and my wife has passed away for many years, so there are basically two people at home, my grandson and me, so it's a coincidence that there is an empty room at home, and you can just rest." The old woman smiled and continued.
"Do you feel a little lonely, old woman?" Lei Lei, who had not spoken beside him, said suddenly.
"I'm used to it, and my grandson is very noisy, and I don't feel lonely when I have my grandson with me. Moreover, almost everyone in our village is like this, because our village is too poor, and with those absurd arguments that catch the wind and shadows, the younger generation has gone out to work in order to live, leaving the old people and children to guard the house. It's been a long time since we, the people in the village, have seen young people like you. Ling Wei felt a little lonely when the old woman said this.
"The absurdity of chasing after the wind?" Ling Wei suddenly noticed the important clues that were closely related to this mission, and hurriedly asked.
"It's nothing, it's just that a few people will disappear in the village from time to time, so some people say that our village is cursed, but, you know, this barren mountain is also easy to get lost or die or something." Although the old woman said this, Ling Wei felt her expression flicker, as if she was deliberately hiding something.
Sensing all this, Ling Wei didn't ask much, but obediently followed behind the old woman, and after a while, she came to a somewhat dilapidated old house.
"This is the environment at home, you will go down! It's not too early, so you'd better rest early. The old woman took Ling Wei and Lei Lei to one room, explained a few words, and then walked to another room.
Ling Wei walked for almost an hour, and felt a little tired, so she lay down directly on the bed, planning to take a good rest.
At this moment, Ling Wei noticed that Lei Lei's face beside her looked a little bad, and she asked curiously, "Why don't you sleep?" Disgusted with this? ”
"No! Sister, it's just, it's just a bed here, how can I sleep? Lei Lei scratched his head and said with some embarrassment.
So that's the case, Ling Wei pointed to the bed, and said angrily: "You sleep here!" Just like when we were kids. ”
"Not really, right?" Lei Lei looked a little at a loss.
"I don't mind, what are you afraid of? Just sleep at night, don't snore, don't hug people! Ling Wei continued, and then took off her coat and slept on the bed.
Lei Lei hesitated for a while, making sure that there was really no other place to sleep in the room, so he had to sigh and sleep quietly next to Ling Wei.
……
The next day, Ling Wei was woken up by the old woman last night, but after Ling Wei washed up and walked out of the room, she saw that the old woman had already prepared a table of breakfast, and was holding her little grandson and feeding her little grandson milk powder.
Seeing Ling Wei and Lei Lei coming down, the old woman smiled kindly, ordered breakfast on the table, and said gently: "The countryside is remote, there are no good things, you will drink some white rice porridge." ”
The little child who was held in the arms of the old woman looked at Ling Wei curiously, and then grinned and smiled at Ling Wei.
I have to say that the child's laughter is really innocent and immaculate, Ling Wei feels that she has been healed, and the unhappiness of the previous task has all disappeared.
Ling Wei originally thought that her first day in the Lost Soul Village should have passed peacefully, but she didn't expect that when Ling Wei finished breakfast and helped the old woman do farm work for a while, there was a piercing air defense siren, but it was an abrupt departure out of thin air.
Seeing the face of the old woman beside her, which had obviously become extremely solemn, Ling Wei frowned and raised her vigilance one hundred percent.
"Grandma Sun, what's wrong?" Ling Wei asked suspiciously.
"Little girl, if you can, you can run quickly, if you don't run, it will be too late!" Granny Sun looked at Ling Wei with an anxious expression.
"Is something wrong?" Ling Wei asked puzzled.
"The Soul Snatcher Tornado has appeared, you guys get out of here quickly, if you are blown by the Soul Snatcher Tornado, you will be more than lucky!" As she spoke, the old woman directly put the little grandson in her arms into the bamboo basket behind her, and then pushed Ling Wei, urging her to run quickly.
"What tornado?" Hearing what Granny Sun said, Ling Wei was even more puzzled, "Is it just an ordinary tornado?" ”
"No, the tornado in our village is very strange, as long as the person is blown away, he will disappear immediately, no one will be born, no body will be seen, and he has no idea where the tornado has taken him." Grandma Sun didn't care about anything at this time, and directly told them about the bizarre phenomenon in their village, "Once, there were many so-called experts who came to our village to investigate this strange tornado, but without exception, all of them were missing, so the country and the government didn't plan to care about us, so they left us to fend for ourselves, and even directly changed the name of our village to Lost Soul Village." ”
As soon as Granny Sun finished speaking, Ling Wei noticed a pitch-black wheal not far away, which was rapidly sweeping towards the Lost Soul Village.
Ling Wei had never seen a black tornado, and her keen sixth sense kept reminding Ling Wei that this tornado was very dangerous. Thinking of this, Ling Wei didn't say a word, so she directly picked up Lei Lei and ran into the distance.
Because Grandma Sun is a little old, she didn't run a few steps, and she was a little unbearable. So, she directly handed over the little grandson she was carrying behind her to Ling Wei, asked Ling Wei to take her grandson out of the Lost Soul Village, and after telling Ling Wei the contact information of her son and daughter-in-law, she looked at Ling Wei with a blank eye, waiting for Ling Wei's answer.
Ling Wei was still hesitating, but she didn't expect the fourth ring mission to be sent again, and the task was to ask Ling Wei to save Granny Sun's child.
Ling Wei didn't hesitate much, so she took the basket and carried it on her back. Granny Sun saw that Ling Wei agreed, and her eyes were full of ecstasy. When Ling Wei gave birth to a child, she sat on the ground and waited quietly for the tornado to come.
"Old woman, are you really not leaving?" Ling Wei looked at the old woman as if she was a broken jar, and she had to ask anxiously.
"Don't run, really don't run, my wife was taken by the tornado a few years ago, I don't know where to go, I'm old now, it's time to find my wife." After Granny Sun finished speaking, she smiled at Ling Wei with relief and urged Ling Wei to leave quickly.
Seeing that the tornado was approaching, Lei Lei directly pulled up Ling Wei, who had turned back three times in one step, and used the speed of a 100-meter sprint, and ran away with her at high speed.
