Chapter 13 Bullet Stones

The Great Renewal continues, and the dazzling sun shines brightly, bringing light and tropics to the earth.

Zhang Xiaohu and the others stayed in the temple for two days, and they were really bored, so they found Han Xiaoyi and applied to go out for a walk in the village. Han Xiaoyi replied in surprise: "If the two Holy Sons want to go out, they can go out directly, and no one restricts your freedom!" Only then did they realize that they had not been grounded at all, and they were indeed thinking too much.

Zhao Zixuan has been staying in the room for the past two days, with his active personality, he has long been tired of staying, hearing this, he immediately pulled Zhang Xiaohu and Li Yichen out of the temple, and shouted: "The sky is high and the sea is wide, the master is finally liberated." Zhang Xiaohu scolded with a smile: "What is liberation!" said that he seemed to be abused, you have eaten and slept in the past few days, and I think you will become a pig if you don't let you come out again. ”

Zhao Zixuan smiled happily, and teased in Lan Feng's tone in his mouth: "This Holy Son, your words are ridiculous!" Big fallacy! ”

Li Yichen on the side replied after a few days, and her face also returned to her complexion, she looked at the two people frolicking around her, with a smile on her face, and sighed: "I haven't had this comfortable feeling for a long time." The three of them pointed along the way, looked at the tall and unique buildings around them, and found that there were many differences from the world they used to live in, such as all the buildings had no doors, only a reed grass curtain to cover them. And all the doorways were stocked with some food and fruit, and they took some and no one came out to stop them.

There are few villagers on the wide bluestone-paved road, and occasionally a few of them are children and old people. The adults in the village didn't know where they had gone, and the whole village lost its popularity and was a little empty.

They walked to a thick tree and were attracted by the voices of several children squatting on the sand, and when the three of them came closer, they heard: "Seven! "Eleven!" "Twelve!" "Haha, you lost!"

I saw that these children were holding more than a dozen black stones in their hands, and a wooden square plate was placed on the ground, on which eleven were arranged horizontally and nine slender wooden pots were vertically arranged, and the edge of the spout of the small wooden pot was very smooth, and the children threw the stones with their own logos into the wooden pot one by one, and played happily.

Zhang Xiaohu looked at it curiously for a while, and soon found the rule, it turned out that the number of stones in this small wooden pot was twelve, and the children threw three stones at a time, and they could throw the stones into any wooden pot at will, but the key to winning or losing was that there could be more than ten even stones in each wooden pot, and if anyone's stones happened to make up an even number, then he would lose; One rule is not to throw one's own stones into a wooden pot in a row, and if three identical stones appear in a row, the child loses; The most important thing is to keep the stones from being thrown out of the pot. The rules are simple, but in practice, it is very interesting, because the spout is smooth, the area is small, some stones that are not thrown will always slide into other wooden pots, it is easy to have double numbers and combos, and some directly slide on the square plate, the children are sweating profusely, and they do not notice the strangers around them.

Zhao Zixuan looked at Zhang Xiaohu: "Old Zhang, it's quite interesting to watch." Let's discuss with these little dolls later, and take us with you. ”

Zhang Xiaohu refused: "If you want to play, you can do it yourself, these children look only six or seven years old, and it's not interesting to win!" ”

A little boy with pigtails heard Zhang Xiaohu's words, stared at him with big eyes, tilted his head and said, "Try it, if you win, I..."

When the rest of the boys saw this, they all stopped playing, clapped their hands and shouted, "Awesome!" "Great!" "Great!"

Zhao Zixuan patted Zhang Xiaohu's back, leaned back with a smile, and said, "Lao Zhang, let you look down on people, this kid has written a war against you!" ”

A little boy with a runny nose handed his stone to Zhang Xiaohu at the right time and said, "You, try it!" ”

Zhang Xiaohu suddenly felt that it was difficult to ride a tiger, took the stone, glanced at the child who challenged, and said with a smile: "Little friend! Don't cry if you lose! He asked himself that he was playing the game at a good level, and that the game was so simple that he must be sure to win.

The little boy said in a rather atmospheric manner: "You are a guest, you can throw first!" When the other children next to him heard this, they all had evil expressions.

Zhang Xiaohu pinched the stone, glanced at the layout of the wooden pot on the square plate, aimed at the wooden pot in the middle, flicked his finger lightly, and a stone shot straight at the target, but at this moment, the child on the opposite side also threw a stone, and accurately hit the stone that Zhang Xiaohu popped up, and suddenly missed the stone, and almost knocked it out of the pot, but fortunately, the stone slipped and slipped into a wooden pot next to it.

The child stomped his feet and said angrily, "If you don't have luck, you can't do anything about it!" ”

Zhang Xiaohu also shouted: "Cheating, didn't you say throwing one by one!" ”

Those children looked at Zhang Xiaohu with an expression of who told you. However, the boy with the pigtails explained that the game allowed one of the players to exchange their three stones for a chance to interfere with the other. If the stone is knocked out of the kettle, the opponent loses. They deliberately didn't tell Zhang Xiaohu the rules just now, just to take the opportunity to win, but they didn't expect the other party's luck to be good.

The game restarted, and Zhang Xiaohu first threw three stones into the upper left, lower left, middle, and three wooden pots. The little boy immediately laid it out. This game is to compare the computing power and layout of the two sides, and the stone throwing accuracy is required to be high, and soon, Zhang Xiaohu's layout of several wooden pots are all surrounded by traps laid by the little boy, and if you make a slight mistake, you will make up an even number and lose the game. He began to be nervous and serious, and the boy opposite him was young but sharp-minded, which was really not to be underestimated.

Zhang Xiaohu relied on his high accuracy of playing stones, barely supporting it, but when he popped out a stone, the little boy decisively interfered again, this time Zhang Xiaohu's luck was not so good, his stone fell into a wooden pot full of eleven stones, and unfortunately lost the game. But he already felt the fun of this game, the competition, the layout, the surprise attack, and the accuracy of his own stone throwing, so much content in one game, it was really breathtaking. It's no wonder that just now

The child was so engaged and happy just playing.

Zhao Zixuan also tried it once, his luck was good, the opponent was the little boy with a runny nose, and he didn't have to work hard to defeat the little boy. sneered at Zhang Xiaohu proudly: "Oops! It's not fun to win! It's just a bunch of six or seven-year-old dolls! Ay! Boring! ”

Zhang Xiaohu was about to end the game again, and found that Li Yichen was faster than himself, holding a stone, his face was ruddy, and he played with the children excitedly.

Unlike herself and Zhao Zixuan, the beautiful Li Yichen quickly mingled with the children, and a group of children chattered around her.

Zhao Zixuan only felt bored, looked at Zhang Xiaohu, and said, "Let's go, Zhang Shengzi!" What are you looking at, no one pays attention to us."

The two of them were turning to leave, when suddenly, a sudden gust of wind swept across their faces, and they immediately thought of the situation when the sun and moon had changed a few days ago, and sure enough, all of them ran quickly, looking for the nearest building, and bringing the food from the door to the house.

Zhang Xiaohu pulled Zhao Zixuan and Li Yichen, ran all the way back to the temple, and found three or four anxious maids waiting for them anxiously.

Zhang Xiaohu saw that not far away, there were many men in leather armor, holding short swords in their hands, looking like they were facing a great enemy, and the women used long poles to hang big red lanterns on the poles on the side of the road, and suddenly the whole road was splashed with a layer of red fluorescence. At the same time, people all over the village were shouting loudly: "Night solstice!" Everyone, evade! ”

"Such a big battle!" In fact, not only Zhao Zixuan sighed, but even Zhang Xiaohu felt that the villagers' reactions were a little too abnormal, no wonder I couldn't see adults just now, it turned out that night was coming, and everyone went to prepare the things needed for the night in advance. The answer to the fact that the house has no door is also understood, it turned out to be convenient for people to enter at any time. After hanging the lanterns, everyone rushed to the nearest house and sprinkled white powder at the door.

The night came as scheduled, sweeping across the land like a ferocious beast, and there was nothing outside of its control.

This is the second dark night that Zhang Xiaohu has experienced here, this time he is in the bright temple, and there is a group of beautiful girls gathered around, and he no longer needs to worry about food and water, and the situation is simply different from the last time.

But he found that every acolyte was nervous, and her eyes scanned the outside, as if she was afraid of something.
