Chapter 20: Night in the Village
I didn't expect to get such a good treasure as the Qiankun bag, and I couldn't help but be surprised and delighted, and put the short sword that Guoxingye gave me into it and took it out, put it in and took it out. It's like a child getting a toy they like, and they can't put it down.
Guo Hongjin said: "Master said before that after this thing is proficient, as long as the mind moves, those things will go in and out. ”
Zhu'er said with great interest: "This thing is so good, I don't know how many things can be loaded?" ”
Guo Hongjin said: "I also asked Master this question before, and he said that he can pretend as much as he wants. ”
Zhu'er grinned and said, "Master, in this way, you put Zhu'er in it and see what kind of place it is?" ”
I said with some hesitation: "I don't know if I can pretend to be someone, what if I can't get out?" ”
Zhu'er grabbed my arm, kept shaking, and couldn't wait to say, "Cows are fine, it's impossible for people to be okay, right?" Try it, try it. ”
I also thought it was funny, eager to try, Zhu'er's trouble, I immediately pointed to her, and then pointed to the Qiankun bag, my mind moved, I felt that a flower in front of me, Zhu'er had disappeared.
Although I had already been mentally prepared, a large living person suddenly disappeared in front of my eyes, and everyone in the room, including me, was startled.
I didn't dare to delay any longer, so I hurriedly opened the bag and shouted, "Zhu'er come out." ”
As soon as she saw a flower, Zhu'er appeared in her place again, but she seemed to be a little dizzy.
"How's it going?" I couldn't wait to ask, "Where have you been?" What do you see? ”
Zhu'er said groggily: "It's dark and dreary, you can't see anything." ”
I wasn't disappointed, but what was inside? Anyway, as long as it can hold something, it's fine.
At this time, a young man hurriedly ran over, pushed open the door and said, "Village chief, they have carried the coffin down, and now it is parked at the entrance of the village." ”
I put down the dishes and chopsticks and said, "I'm almost eating now, I'll go and see." ”
Guoxingye stood up and said: "It's so cold outside, you don't have to go out, I'll go and arrange it, first eat something for those workers and settle down." I'll do the rest tomorrow morning. We don't have anything else, but there are many places to sleep. ”
I thought about it for a while, so I sat down again and continued to play with the Qiankun bag in my hand.
Guo Hongjin, Guo Hongwen, Guo Hongyou and the six brothers of the Dao Brother Guards chatted with each other.
There is no electricity in this Yuanbao Village, and there is nothing to entertain at night, which is very boring. After sitting for a while, Zhu'er was already yawning.
But after waiting for a long time, Guoxingye still did not come back.
Guoxingye's wife arranged for us to rest first, and let me sleep on the small bed behind the incense in the hall.
I took out my phone and looked at it, it was only past nine o'clock, and I had never gone to bed so early. But instead of sitting so bored, let's go to sleep.
But as soon as he got into the cold bed, he suddenly woke up, let alone sleeped.
Fortunately, there is also a hot water bottle in the quilt, which is more advanced than the glass bottle, which is probably a rare luxury in Guoxing's home.
The quilt has two beds, and it is so heavy that it is difficult to even turn over. In fact, there were ice cubes everywhere in the quilt, and I didn't dare to move, let alone turn over.
There was darkness between heaven and earth, and there was no sound at all, as if one was lying in a huge tomb.
Time flies so slowly. I thought it had been a long time, but when I took out my phone to look, it was only about ten minutes later.
It's been a long night, and I don't know when it will dawn.
No way, use your phone.
But I really can't stand the networks on the charts on the reading software......
Watch the news.
The so-called news in today's headlines are all deliberately unconventional things, either major discoveries that subvert history, or celebrity gossip news. The title is appalling, and there is no fart content when you click on it. And there is a lot of duplicate news.
There's nothing nutritious on TikTok either.
But it's better than lying stupid, right?
It was almost twelve o'clock.
At this time, in the midst of the dead silence, a long howl suddenly came from outside, terrible and tragic, like a hungry wolf howling in the ice and snow.
Hearing such a voice, I couldn't help but shiver, and my heart was pounding. When I pricked up my ears to listen again, the sound was gone.
There was a dead silence all around.
I waited for a long time, but the voice never came again, and I didn't even think I had heard it wrong.
Just when I was determined to forget about it, turned on my phone and decided to continue watching the news, I suddenly heard a "ahhhh This time I heard it clearly, and the voice was coming from the direction of the village entrance.
Not only that, but the howling of wolves came from the west, north, and south of the village, and more and more and more densely. It's as if countless hungry wolves have surrounded this small village, shouting loudly and echoing each other!
The sound, tumbling and overlapping, really didn't know that there were tens of thousands of hungry wolves, making people feel like they were surrounded by a monstrous wave.
However, it was definitely not a wolf cry, and there would never be so many wolves here.
My heart felt like it was going to jump out of my mouth, and I didn't know what the hell I had encountered this time.
After a long time, the gushing voice finally weakened, and finally returned to calm.
I really want to get up and go out and have a look. But when I thought of this, there were no lights, no flashlights, and in the middle of the night, I couldn't see anything when I went out, so I had to give up.
After a while, there was a lot of activity in all directions, with footsteps, shouts, and shouts...... There was a loud bang.
I was taken aback and hurriedly jumped up.
There wasn't even a window in the small room, and I couldn't see my fingers, so I managed to touch my shoes, and I hurried out of them before I could put them on. I accidentally hit my head on the door frame, and it hurt so much that I was about to burst into tears.
When they reached the steps outside, Zhu'er and the brothers of the Dao Ge Guards had already gotten up, standing there with the village chief's wife, looking around in a panic, asking each other what was going on. The village chief was not among them.
The village chief's house is at the back of the entire Yuanbao Village, and the terrain is also the highest. From here, you can see that countless torches are lit up in the whole village, and I don't know how many people there are. People were shouting and running around in a panic.
"What's going on?" Knowing that Zhu'er didn't necessarily know, I couldn't help but ask.
"Master, I also just got up, and I don't know what's going on." Zhu'er, who has always been not afraid of the sky and the earth, was actually a little scared, and said tremblingly.
"Jiang Wenqi, you go and ask what's going on, and come back in time to report." I said to one of the brothers of the Knife Brothers' Guard.
Jiang Wenqi agreed and was about to leave, but he saw a person holding a torch, running over with one foot high and one foot low, it was Tang Jiang who came.
Jiang Wenqi saw that Tang Jiang was coming, so he didn't leave for the time being.
"What's going on?" I didn't wait for Tang Jiang to get closer, so I couldn't wait to ask.
Tang Jiang ran in front of me, gasped for breath for a while, and then said, "Yes...... Several workers have disappeared inexplicably, and everyone is looking for them, but there is no ...... There is no clue at all. ”
"Inexplicable disappearance?!" I guess my face must be as white as the snow right now.
Tang Jiang swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "Those six workers and I all live in one of the villagers' houses, I sleep in a room by myself, and those six workers sleep together in the attic. After that strange noise, I seemed to hear a voice from the upstairs where he slept, so I called them a few times. But they didn't answer me, so I lit a torch and went up to look at it. As a result, a big hole was broken in the roof of the house, many tiles fell on the upper floor, and the six workers were gone! ”
When Guoxing's wife heard this, she sat down on the ground softly, and muttered in her mouth: "It's coming, it's coming, it must be a snow monster, let's die together!" ”
