What, I said I went to bed early and got up early, but I didn't dare to sleep much, but that guy didn't get up until noon. I don't know this place well, so what would I do without him?

At this time, I was sitting on the floor of my room, looking out the window at the unfamiliar scenery, as if I was in a different world. When I woke up from sleep, my body didn't hurt so much. I thought I had at least five broken ribs, but now I can turn my head flexibly. I don't know what special abilities this strange village has, which has restored my old spirit. But the right hand that was touched by the crane yesterday has a slight swelling pain, I don't know if it's a psychological effect.

However, after the spirit recovered, the stomach was also hungry. Yesterday I didn't eat well all day, and now I have been waiting until noon, and it seems that there is no hope of eating.

"Hah, morning!" The crane rubbed his sleepy eyes, looking unfinished. The yellowish unknown object in the corner of his eye was rubbed against his bearded face, and my hairs couldn't help but tremble.

Doesn't this guy know how to change clothes? I really wonder if he just took off his robe at night and used it as a quilt. But it was daytime, and he looked much cleaner in the daylight, and I realized that he looked really young except for his scruffy appearance. I can't help but think of some kind of legend that is young by day and old at night.

"Hey, what's the fuss." He suddenly crouched in front of me and startled me. I was thinking about things just now, but I didn't realize that he was less than half a meter away from me.

"I didn't ...... It's nothing. I said in a panic. This person is really even more terrifying than Qin Chuyi.

Hearing me reply, he pursed his lips and said, "Then eat, I'm hungry." With that, he walked out of the room again. When I heard that I was eating, my eyes lit up, and I followed the crane around the house, and before I knew it, I came to his room. To my surprise, his room was not as messy as I had imagined, but rather a neatly stacked stack of books. But I'm looking for the point, the food.

When he saw me poking my head in the room, he said, "What are you doing, cooking?" ”

I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself down without rushing up and tearing this guy. Living in someone's house, cooking a meal is as it should be, um. Thinking about it this way, the psychology is much more balanced. But I don't think there's anything in this room that allows me to "show off my cooking skills" except for books.

"Put it under the porch on the right side of the gate, go get it yourself." With that, he yawned again, lay on the floor and turned his back to me, almost going to sleep again.

I couldn't do anything about him, so I had to turn left and right in this wooden house and turn to the gate. As soon as I opened the wooden sliding door, a white shadow flashed in front of me and quickly disappeared into the courtyard. I was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously took two steps towards the place where the shadow had disappeared, and did not find any suspicious person. But this village is really strange, there is no one on the road in broad daylight, do they all like to sleep as much as cranes?

"Ah, here you are." A voice sounded from behind me, and I shuddered and screamed. When I turned around, I realized that it was the peasant woman who took the big-headed child away yesterday.

She stood under the porch against the wall, squinting at me with a smile. I finally got a good look at this woman today, her triangular face and short body didn't look very commensurate, and the distance between her eyes was very large, like a goldfish. She was holding a cloth bag with some vegetables exposed.

"Is there anything you can do?" I saw that she looked at me and asked without speaking.

"Today it's my turn to deliver ingredients to Master." She walked towards me with small steps that almost felt like she was jumping. I took the cloth bag in her hand, and it contained some potatoes, turnips, greens, and so on. "Ah, I almost forgot about that." She dug through her clothes and pulled out a live fish. "The child is naughty, and he should make amends." After saying that, she still squinted her eyes and left the crane house with small steps, and disappeared after a few steps.

The people in this village are so strange. I walked to the kitchen with these things, ready to take out my mobile phone Baidu how to cook. Only then did I remember that my bag was taken away by Ye Jiahe's assistant. It's nerve-wracking, and I barely cook at home. It wasn't until I checked the kitchen at Tsuru's house that I was really desperate. It turned out to be a cookware similar to a stove from decades ago or more. I looked up to the sky and sighed, but fortunately, I found oil, salt, sauce and vinegar and other seasonings, and an idea quickly jumped into my mind.

"It's time to eat!" I yelled, and the sound of the crane pulling his shoes immediately rang out, and sure enough, he had been pretending to sleep before.

He ran over with excitement on his face, only to see me shaking my fan under the porch, and a puff of black smoke rising from the ground made him cough. "What are you doing!!" He was obviously frightened and immediately ran over.

"Eh, it's quite fragrant." He stirred his nose and struggled like a dog to discern the smell of food from the black smoke.

"Baked sweet potatoes, baked potatoes, grilled carrots, grilled fish, eat them." I crossed my hands, looked up from the black smoke, took out the quilt and filled him with some water.

I watched him gobble in front of me all noon, like he hadn't eaten in days. However, this scene of eating grilled fish under the porch suddenly reminded me of Abe Harumi in the novel "Onmyoji". This guy knows how to use Shikigami just like him, although it looks like it's too bad.

"Hiccup." He had a full burp, and it looked like he was full. Who said that people who cook don't want to eat? That's right. But just because I don't want to eat doesn't mean I'm not hungry, and I always feel a strange appeal in my body.

"I've also cooked the meal, and you're full, can you tell me how to return to the real world now?" I asked.

"No, you can't." Without hesitation, he replied, "Now is not the time. ”

"Why!"

"Ahh Let me tell you this, do you know how to travel through time? ”

I nodded.

"If you travel back in time and make any changes, it will have a series of consequences similar to the butterfly effect. Mayang Village is a place that resembles a parallel world, very similar to a dream, and the time here is different from the time in reality. If you go back now, you'll immediately get into the crowd that threw you out of the car, and they saw that you were dead and alive, wouldn't they kill you again? ”

Sounds like some truth. "And when can I go?"

"You can go when I let you go. I'd like to take a closer look at that thing in your body. He wiped his mouth and lay down under the porch, his legs crossed.

I sighed and lay down on the ground with him, watching the afternoon sun shine violently on my face, and the person became a little dazed. How am I going to spend my next few days here?

"Now, what do you want to know, you can ask." He said suddenly. His eyes were half-squinted, and he seemed to enjoy the afternoon.

"You haven't told me about you yet. Who the hell are you, where you're from, how old are you, what's going on with this village, and when can I go back......"

"Okay, good, come one by one!" He waved his hand impatiently, turned over and leaned against the wall, supported his neck with one hand, and made a fuss with the other, and said slowly, "Who am I, Crane?" I don't know how many times you'll have to explain this question before you understand. It doesn't matter where I'm from, what matters is that I'll go anywhere. Age, I'll do the math, probably ......" He began to count with his fingers and toes, and his stunned appearance was particularly funny.

"Ha, it adds up to almost a few hundred years old, I can't figure it out!" He waved his hand and closed his eyes again.

"What! Hundreds of years old! Are you a youkai?! "I was shocked, no wonder the kid bit my finger, did I stay here to be eaten?

"Hey, what's the hell. What kind of monster is not a monster, is it considered a monster when you are older? Speaking of youkai, you're more like me than you, aren't you? He finally opened his eyes and looked at me from top to bottom, "Speaking of which, this sealing method is still passed down by me. ”

What does he have to do with this? I thought as I looked at him quizzically.

"Guy with a tapir, then you must be a dreamer. One of my apprentices once ruined his longevity because of the sealing of the tapir, and he told me about it at the last minute. He is the only one who can do such a thankless task. ”

"Since you taught it, is there a way to crack it? My grandfather has been working on this all his life, and now that he is gone, I want to continue to help him with this business. ”

"How can there be a way to crack it, little girl, this is a forbidden technique." He shook his head, reached out and picked his teeth in his mouth, and continued: "This is the last trick I taught my apprentice, even if I die, I can't let the other party win." That kid is so obedient. ”

"You've lived hundreds of years, and you've become sluggish." I said, "People have feelings for each other, and sacrificing oneself for others is a great thing, so how can it be thankless." ”

"The reason you say that is because you're alive." He looked into my eyes and suddenly became stern: "Speaking of age, how can I be dull!" I've always been around thirty years old, do I look old? "I'm too embarrassed to tell him that he looks like he's fifty.

"Well, don't talk about that. Next, what is this place? Well, didn't I say that before? The village between the sun and the yang, is a village between the underworld and the yang. It's a place where time passes very slowly, and I come back here when I don't want to care about the world. Of course the group of people you saw yesterday will not be there, which lonely ghost have you ever seen wandering on the road in broad daylight? During the day, I only saw my Shikigami, for example, this one. He stretched out his hand and pointed forward, and the stone man from yesterday suddenly reappeared with a "bang". I couldn't believe my eyes at such a speed.

The stone man came over and took away all the leftovers we had eaten, and left silently.

"Many lonely souls and wild ghosts are wandering in the human world, or wandering between the human world and the underworld, they are afraid of reincarnation, or they have persistent thoughts. I brought them together and made this village. A qiē is done with the mind, very similar to your dream master. ”

I looked at the parallel world in front of me, and I never thought I would be here.

"Let's go." He stood up abruptly and patted the dust off his buttocks.

"Can I go back?" As soon as I heard the word "go", I immediately stood up excitedly.

"You ghost," he said, giving me a condescending glance and looking at the road ahead, "it's time to feed the monsters in your body, Dream Eater." ”
