Chapter 242: A Dream of Horror
It seems that Yun Wen is right, the sound of jumping out of the window just now should be the sound of its escape, after all, I have some impression of that sound, there is a special strong wind when it jumps, and the frequency of the sound brought by this strong wind is somewhat special, although it is fleeting, but my ears will rarely hear it, the sound of jumping off the window just now is the same as the sound of jumping into the sea when something jumped into the sea from the sea monster was burned, so it can be accurately judged that the gray powder operator has been in the spring house.
"Ahem." Yun Wen's throat rattled.
I woke up from thinking, only then did I realize that I was pressing Yun Wen against the wall, covering her mouth with one hand, and the other hand was also through her shoulder to support the wall, like some kind of action called wall dong, just now I was in a trance, I didn't pay attention, and now I was really embarrassed, and hurriedly let go of my hand, but this hand was also wrong in a hurry, and I let go of the left hand that supported the wall, and immediately lost my support, and my body pounced on Yun Wen.
And lost the support, and was afraid that the hand covering her mouth would hurt her, so she hurriedly let go, so a mouth was also attached to her mouth, the two of them were shy for a while, the key at this time Bai Lu had just come up from downstairs, we were standing in the shadows, there was no light in the corridor, if it moved or was seen clearly, it would inevitably make her feel uncomfortable, as if the two of us were interested in angry with her.
Therefore, I can only save this first, my lips are close together, my body is compact, and I waited until Bai Lu entered the house, I slowly let go of Yun Wen, she laughed coquettishly, pushed me away, and said, "I hate it!" It must have been deliberate. ”
Since there is not enough oil, everyone's oil bowls have to be used sparingly recently, and when it is completely dark and there is no sun at night, they will no longer stay on the second floor, so not long after talking to Yingchun, everyone returned downstairs again, gathered around the campfire, waiting for me to arrange the night shift tonight.
I happen to have some things to talk to Yun Wen about, so when I arrange it, it is my first class, Yun Wen's second class, Yingchun's third class, and Bailu's fourth class.
After everyone washed up, they followed the vigil order, the sleep that should be slept, the vigil that should be vigiled, only Yun Wen should have slept, but after the Song sisters fell asleep, they got up and came to me, this is also the tacit understanding raised by the two of us, if I arrange her after me, it is most likely because I have something to discuss with her, and it is to discuss when the Song sisters are asleep.
After she got up, we were around the campfire, making some hot tea, drinking and saying, she was waiting for me outside the Yingchun room tonight, only half of the words were spoken, and there was a paragraph that was not said, which roughly meant that after I left her room, she repeatedly connected the clues together, thinking of why she encountered a bison attacking people, why she encountered a ghost vine to kill people, and why the previous aphrodisiac incident continued to ferment.
The only reason that can be explained, that is, the gray powder manipulator has always stayed in this house, otherwise it is impossible to know our whereabouts well, so accurate, the bison in the absence of mad cow disease, at least two or three kilometers away from their territory, and it is an isolated attack on us, the ghost vine does not have the ability to take the initiative to attack, knock is also in the spring as soon as the ground immediately kills, it can be seen that it has always been near us, tracking us, otherwise it can't be done at all.
There is also the aphrodisiac event, if it is not nearby, it will not be able to control me all the time until I sweat to expel it, and at the beginning of the aphrodisiac event, it also suddenly had an abnormality in the sea, after the ghost ship burned up, it jumped into the sea, and then I had an abnormality, this is not a coincidence, but since then, it has invaded our lives.
And Yun Wen said that during her time, in order to help find two dragon teeth, she searched up and down everywhere for a month, but she didn't see it, and there was only one place that she hadn't found, that is, Yingchun's room, through the integration of all clues, there was only one possibility, that is, the behind-the-scenes manipulator had been staying in Yingchun's room.
Now I also understand why it doesn't make us suicidal, let us all die directly, because it can only promote and stimulate the strengthening of consciousness, not directly replace consciousness, people have the ability to regulate emotions, the risk of failure is very high, and once it fails, let me find clues, find it nearby, find it itself, it may be in big trouble, so it can only use the dream way to rebel and sow discord against Yingchun, to achieve its own goals, so that it will leave no traces of crime, easy to protect itself.
From my side, the incense was deliberately lit in the room, which was to cover up the smell of incense burners and minerals, and the wooden man seemed to have traces of movement, indicating that it was probably hiding in it just now, so it didn't run away, it has been hiding there for eight or nine years, but just now I heard Yun Wen's words, and jumped out of the window in fright.
"But I don't understand, what is it doing this, killing us?" Yun Wen asked.
"If I'm not mistaken, what it wants is not to kill people, but to kill our bodies, to ban our spirits with gray powder, to turn us into ghosts, to be manipulated by it, so that we become its slaves, and without the control of the spirit pool, it can use us for anything." I said.
"I'm afraid that's the case, then what should we do, especially since I'm stupid, let it know tonight, we know its whereabouts, and it has escaped, so will it use more extreme methods against us." Yun Wen said.
"The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and it is useless to be afraid, but I don't know what such a powerful thing is, I only know what incense burner, alchemy furnace and the like may come from, otherwise there will be no smell." I said.
Unexpectedly, in the next two or three days, it was unexpectedly quiet, nothing strange happened, and I also unexpectedly heard the conversation between Yingchun and Bai Lu, and specially talked about these things, she said that she hadn't dreamed of that Longhu monk in the past few days, and then it was the smell of me and Yunwen, thinking that it was because of us, that the big fairy didn't come.
Yunwen and I also took advantage of Yingchun's absence, sneaked into her house to raid and search, and fiddled with the wooden man, but we couldn't feel the anger at all, it was a pile of rotten wood, a pile of wood that had been chiseled by Yingchun, and we also groped around the window, except for touching a little gray powder, nothing else was found.
There are signs that it is no longer there, and perhaps it knows that there is no place for it to take refuge, so it does not dare to stay here any longer, and thus disappears without a trace, and does not dare to reappear, for fear of risk.
It's okay like this, although they have never seen their true faces, but some opponents are better off not meeting, and it is enough to fight and be silent, and stop at nothing.
Yingchun is completely depressed, her resurrection plan seems to be out of order, but it also happens to make her interesting, her sister taught her, she can only reconcile with me, after all, her so-called backer has disappeared without a trace, her heart is also panicked, and no one continues to instigate, this dominance was soon taken away by me, Yingchun's temperament is relatively simple, or very well oriented, otherwise how can it be easily deceived.
Perhaps its deity was too weak for fear of being harmed, so it never saw it again, and since it was not in the house, it would not know where we had gone, and it would not know where we were, and it would have nowhere to find it even if it wanted to harm me, so I tried to go out and look for food, and it was really fine.
As a result, I found a lot of stranded fish and shells on the coast, and collected some fresh wild vegetables, grass roots, wild mushrooms, etc., all of which were all fine.
I thought it would be particularly troublesome this time, but I didn't expect it to be solved so easily, which also surprised me a lot.
But it wasn't until the seventh day that the thing disappeared that night that I had a dream of a tall man, who was just looking like smoke and sand, with his back to me.
