Chapter 41: She Likes Him

Liang Jun was reluctant to recall the process of fighting with the tree man, let alone the torture afterwards.

The tree man said that it was very powerful, and the arms and legs made of vines could be stretched, and it didn't seem to feel any pain, even if it was shot by a gun, it was only like a little physical attack, but it was indeed very weak to say that it was weak, and it was too dependent on those fragile branches and vines, as long as it was cut off, the tree man would become a waste.

It's hard to even move.

She finally caught a tree man with all her strength, on the one hand, she wanted to ask for some information, and on the other hand, she also planned to touch the bottom of the tree man.

Since she couldn't speak, she could only ask questions and let the tree man nod and shake his head, but despite this, the other party did not cooperate, was tied to the tree, and did not respond when she spoke.

If she died, she didn't, and when she ran out of patience, she shook her head indiscriminately, which looked like she was mocking her for doing a bunch of useless work.

The tree man had no face, which was the most disgusting thing she felt, a thing without a face, but she clearly felt a cold and mocking emotion from that thing.

He Xiu said that Qizi would try her best to cling to everything she could to escape from the forest and Nanjia Village, and she even used her body as a bargaining chip, promising to temporarily hand over her body to the tree man in exchange for the news of Liang Ye, but the other party was still indifferent.

In her last rage, she scribbled the tree man with her dagger.

It was still useless, and at the end, she did see something floating out of the pile of branches.

Unlike the unbelievable spirits she had seen before, Kiko was a pointless wisp of white smoke that completely dissipated into the air a few seconds after it came out of the treeman's body.

That's why she felt that the deed had run away, not died.

After all, you won't die if you get shot, so what's the point of a few knife cuts?

After listening to the whole story, He Xiu raised his eyes and stared at Liang Jun, looking back and forth a few times before answering the question: "You like this, you will not become the target of Qizi, you are strong, have a clear goal, and you are not timid, and your aura is too big, unlike Liu Jiale...... I told you that the reason why I was able to cling to her was because her own desire to survive was weak at that time, and she was too scared......"

After a pause, He Xiu added: "For people like you, Qizi can't coexist with you when he enters your body, we still have a preference...... The kind of person who is weaker is easy to control, and Li Lin is stronger than you. ”

Liang Jun was silent for a while.

It looks like the way to make a deal with the Treants is going to be blocked.

He Xiu's eyes drooped, and he said: "I sincerely advise you to leave this place quickly, even if you die outside, it is better than dying in this place, you have also seen it, here, death is not good...... The people here, whether living or dead, are, to put it bluntly, toys for the eyes of the spring. ”

Liang Jun was stunned for a moment, feeling novel about this statement, "Toys? ”

He Xiu's pale face pulled out a bleak smile.

"What do you think? People here have never been able to get out for the rest of their lives, and they don't know when they will become sacrifices, and they have been living in this fear...... The villagers dream every year that everyone is afraid of the sacrifice designated by the Eye of the Spring, and the Eye of the Spring also has a preference for choosing sacrifices, and those who are most afraid of becoming sacrifices and are anxious to leave here are often the easiest to choose, and the sacrifice that the Eye of the Spring wants is not just the flesh and blood that is torn apart, but the kind of soul full of fear. ”

Liang Jun's back chilled when he listened, "This is how you feel?" ”

He Xiu looked into the distance with a face, and said after a few seconds, "Isn't Qizi a part of the Eye of the Spring?" You can see it, even the Kiko will choose the best bully bodies and souls to cling to, the Eye of the Spring traps us these Kiko, probably just to see us struggling and unable to escape, you don't understand the despair, I don't remember how many years have passed...... I don't feel time in the woods, I don't have a body, I always worry that I will disappear, but I worry that I haven't disappeared, the Eye of the Spring likes this, it feeds not on the body of the sacrifice, but on the fear, despair, and contradiction of the sacrifice, maybe you outsiders are the same, you are all prey to the Eye of the Spring......"

She smiled again, a little sickly, "I've seen an outsider too. ”

Liang Jun's heart tightened, "Not Liang Yisheng?" ”

He Xiu shook her head, "I haven't seen the geologist in your mouth, the outsider I saw was a miner, a team of people came, he was alone, and when he arrived in this kind of place, he told me a lot of things outside," she said a little distracted, and then looked at the car she was leaning on, and said: "Even the car was told to me, and the people in the village have never seen this kind of car, but he and I described it much bigger than this, and it doesn't seem to be the same, he let me know that the outside world is actually very good." ”

Liang Jun was a little confused, "What about him?" ”

He Xiu was quiet for a while.

Just when Liang Jun was about to ask again, she said quietly, "He went to the water prison and wanted to save me...... He was found by the villagers and stoned to death. ”

Liang Jun didn't speak.

He Xiu said: "Right in front of me, in the water prison, I watched him being stoned to death, his face deformed, and his brain bursting out......"

She said to the back, her body shaking.

Liang Jun didn't know if it would be too cruel to ask again, so he hesitated.

"At that time, I thought, I was just a sacrifice and was divided, I died and became a ghost, I also want to take revenge, I want to kill these villagers, I also want to kill the eye of the spring, that thing - what kind of god, what kind of god, will take people as playthings?" He Xiu's head hung down, "But after becoming a deed, I don't even have a body, it takes a lot of strength to cling to those branches, and I can't get out of the forest, every day when it dawns, I am beaten back to my original shape, I can't even move, revenge has become a joke, the eye of the spring must still be looking at me, looking at me desperately, I can't escape from the waste......"

Liang Jun was silent for a moment, sat down next to He Xiu, waited for her to calm down, and gave her the head of the nest, "Let's eat." ”

He Xiu's tied hand rope was connected to the seat in the car, and she only gave He Xiu one hand to loosen it to make it easier for people to eat, sympathy is sympathy, and she still didn't let go of the necessary vigilance.

He Xiu didn't eat it immediately when he took the wowo head, and raised his hand to wipe it from the corner of his eye.

The atmosphere was dull and stalemate for a while, and Liang Jun asked again: "What is the eye of the spring, do you remember?" ”

Like Zhao Yingying, He Xiu also shook his head.

"If you really want to know about the eye of the spring, you should ask your so-called sister," He Xiu looked at her, "the breath on her body...... And that sense of oppression, it's exactly the same as the Eye of the Spring, I've seen so many Qizi, they've all fallen into the Spring, they've come into contact with the Eye of the Spring, but they haven't become like her...... She made me feel like the eye of the spring itself. ”

Liang Jun leaned on the car, pressed his hand on his eyebrows, and was a little anxious, "It's not the same thing as that, although she is not my own sister, but she was born twenty years ago, when did this village start to have this ceremony?" You think too much, and she's a little girl, where does the sense of oppression come from...... I've been with her for many years, and I haven't felt any aura on her, don't always say these things to Han Li, lest he be suspicious. ”

Now Han Li had obviously begun to be suspicious of Liang Ye, she didn't know what Han Li had experienced in the past, but Han Li's desire to rescue his sister Han Zhixia had reached a situation where he was almost unscrupulous, if he really felt that Liang Ye had clues here, she had no doubt that he would definitely do everything possible to catch Liang Ye, and then ask for the news he wanted even if he was tortured.

If Liang Ye really knew anything, Liu Yuyan would not have died in the first place, she couldn't watch this kind of thing happen, there really was a conflict, she was not Han Li's opponent, and then she would be in trouble.

He Xiu raised his eyes to look at her, "All the Qizi are afraid of her...... It's like being afraid of the eye of the spring, you haven't made a sacrifice, of course you won't feel that kind of breath, you don't have a backache when you stand and talk, she may have the skin of a little girl, but she is definitely not human. ”

Liang Jun didn't know what to say, "You eat." ”

……

The result of the conversation with He Xiu did not reassure Liang Jun.

Of course, she knew that Liang Ye was not an ordinary person, ordinary people could not grow up, it was impossible to see the future in dreams, and it was impossible for her to hold her hand to let her see a lot of messy scenes - what happened in the past, what happened in the future, as long as Liang Ye wanted her to see it, gently pull her hand, those scenes would appear in her mind.

Liang Ye doesn't do this very often, the reason is that Liang Jun doesn't like it either.

Liang Ye has never let her see anything good, those scenes are all disasters without exception, in addition to the scene where Liu Yuyan was killed by Liang Yisheng's own hands, she has also seen the scene of a large-scale tragedy, the scene of a bridge collapse and a train derailment.

Most of these scenes were filled with blood, people's screams and crying, so much so that later, she even avoided touching Liang Ye's body, afraid of accidentally seeing something strange.

She's still an ordinary person after all, and she will feel fear.

Liang Ye is obviously different, Liang Ye's dreams are filled with these scenes from time to time, but she never feels afraid.

Liang Jun still remembers the only time she and Liang Ye took the initiative to ask to see Liang Ye's dream, which was not long ago, when Liang Ye said that she saw someone kill her in her dream.

But Liang Ye refused, and Liang Ye told her that she didn't have to be afraid, she would find a way to deal with this man, and she would reverse her fate.

Liang Ye said this is very unbelievable, how many disasters have happened in the past, she had seen it in dreams before, Liang Jun had also thought about doing something before the disaster came, such as reminding those people, but obviously she didn't have the ability to judge the place of the incident and the identity of those people just by a little fragment and situation.

Liang Ye has little interest in saving those people, and Liang Ye often tells her that what can be reversed is not called fate.

According to this statement, she was destined to be killed.

But Liang Ye did not accept his fate this time.

Liang Jun is actually not so afraid of death, but she is not so afraid of death, and she is also a little worried about what Liang Ye will do if she dies, Liu Yuyan once entrusted Liang Ye to her, but she has been living a life of exile with Liang Ye, and she doesn't know what will become of Liang Ye after she dies, and now, her only hope is that the person who killed her must not be Han Li.

Anyone can, but he can't.

……

Han Li came back in the evening and brought a barely good news-

As they had previously deduced, the villagers had really lost their memory.

The memories of all the villagers have gone back to ten days ago, when Zhao Yingying was imprisoned in the water prison and will be sacrificed again after nine days.

It is reluctant to say this good news because their memories are all there, and it will inevitably be a little frustrating to return to the original point after such a long time.

After Han Li finished speaking, the atmosphere in the car was the same as that of a dead person.

He Xiu was still tied outside, Liang Jun was sitting sideways in the back seat because of his inconvenient legs, Han Li and Li Lin were in front of him, the car was too dull, Liang Jun was silent for a while, and asked Han Li: "Then you have been going for so long, have you seen Zhao Yingying?" ”

Han Li said in a cold tone: "I confirmed with the villagers what He Xiu said, she shouldn't have lied anymore, Zhao Yingying's water prison door can't be opened by anyone, I will go over with Li Lin again." ”

He didn't look back when he spoke, he looked straight at the long yellow sand in front of him, stingy with Liang Jun's eyes, Li Lin looked at him and looked back at Liang Jun, and also sensitively noticed that the atmosphere between the two people was a little delicate.

Li Lin hesitated, "But this He Xiu is here, it's a little troublesome, Liang Jun is alone, his leg is injured, in case he ...... before he appears again."

Liang Jun didn't have time to answer, Han Li replied first, "She can handle it." ”

Liang Jun was stunned.

This time he was relieved.

Li Lin glanced at Liang Jun, her smile was a little far-fetched, "Well, I can do it myself, anyway, isn't she tied up now, and she can't do anything." ”

Liang Jun pushed the car door and got out of the car.

She thought, he should be angry......

There's no way she's going to coax him.

She hadn't done anything wrong, she had already begun to trust him, and he had shown suspicion of her first.

She tempted him, but she was punished, and remembering what had happened in the tent in the morning, she despised herself in the depths of her heartβ€”

At that time, there was a momentary thought, the object was him, even if it continued, after all, she was a person with no future, she was destined to be killed, and she did not reject his approach and touch.

She even felt that she liked him a little.

Looking back now, she felt like she was in the water.
