Chapter 62: The Otherworld (2)

Lin Chen stood in place, looking at her, and suddenly there seemed to be a soft thorn in his heart, which didn't hurt too much, but it was faintly hidden there, making him a little uncomfortable.

Raising his hand to gently dust off the dust on her shoulder, Lin Chen smiled and said to Xu Aqi, "Okay! It's good not to be tired! After running for so long, you can still stand here and talk to me, prove that you still have the strength, and if you find a tiger to chase you, I'm afraid you can not only run 800 meters, maybe even a marathon, and you can win perfectly. ”

Xu Aqi's eyebrows moved slightly, leaning against the wall with her arms crossed, listening to Lin Chen's words, and shaking her head incessantly.

"Hey, Lin Chen, to be serious, you said, that old lady seems to be very hostile to us! Otherwise, why would she be staring at us! Her eyes are so terrifying! ”

"Yes! Also, she just saw us, what are you running! ”

Lin Chen leaned over to tie his shoelaces and stood up.

"Weak heart?" Xu Aqi said.

"Not like that!" Lin Chen said.

"Afraid of us?"

"What do we have to fear! We won't eat her again! Lin Chen paused, and then said, "She won't steal children!" I was afraid that we would catch her, so she ran away! Because the first two times you and I saw her, she was holding a child. ”

"I didn't see that child this time, it couldn't have been sold by her! Also, what explanation is her disappearance from the side of the building? ”

Standing for a long time and a little tired, Lin Chen also followed Xu Aqi's example, hugged his arms, leaned his body against the wall, thought for a while, and continued: "I don't think this old lady will be so simple!" ”

"Well, there's also the possibility that she deliberately ran so that we could chase her! Guide us here! ”

Xu Aqi's guess made Lin Chen stunned, and he looked at Xu Aqi blankly, waiting for her to explain further.

Xu Aqi paused, seemed to have found something, pointed to a woman sitting on a street bench, and said to Lin Chen, "Look! What a beautiful woman's clothes! Cut from dark brown silk satin, it's wide, big and casual! What a personality! It's just that her pants don't look good, and they're too fat! If it's me, I'll wear a pair of leggings! It's a beautiful match! ”

"It's ugly to death! What a nice look! ”

"It's really unaesthetic!"

Lin Chen seemed to be trying to hide a certain emotion in his heart, revealing an ugly smile, "Don't you think that dress is more like a shroud!" ”

Lin Chen didn't say anything, Xu Aqi didn't pay attention, as soon as Lin Chen said this, Xu Aqi felt that her scalp was numb, she looked at the person again, the corners of her mouth trembled, she didn't speak again, grabbed Lin Chen's hand, and grabbed it tighter.

"Why does she keep looking at us!" Xu Aqi said, casually looking around, and suddenly she let out a rapid and frightened cry.

"Lin Chen!"

Lin Chen was startled by this sudden voice.

"What's wrong?"

"Look!"

"See what?"

"Look at all these people!"

Xu Aqi's face turned pale, and she nervously dragged Lin Chen's arm, and her body couldn't help but hide behind Lin Chen.

"What's wrong? Nothing! ”

Looking in the direction of Xu Aqi's finger, everything seemed to be normal, there was a boulevard in front of him, the street was not too spacious, on both sides of the road, there were rows of houses and shops, row upon row, quaint houses and modern apartment buildings were scattered. Groups of three, groups of two, walking, or stopping.

"What's wrong? Isn't that great? ”

Lin Chen looked confused.

"Oops! You're so sluggish! You don't realize that they, men and women, young and old, are so strange! ”

"Strange?"

Xu Aqi used this word to make Lin Chen very surprised, he held his breath and watched again, and couldn't help but secretly inhale cold air!

She's right!

At sunset, the evening clouds turned a dark red.

The whole street was reflected in this dark red, there was no bustle and bustle of the daily street market, not even anyone talking, no laughter, everything was beyond the ordinary quiet, so quiet that it sent chills down the spine.

On the street, there are people who wear everything, some wear fox skin jackets, and some wear cool summer clothes!

"Oh, people nowadays, it's really messy dressing! I don't even know what to wear! I actually wear everything! The seasons will be so contrasting! Lin Chen said.

"It's not just the seasons!" Xu Aqi patted Lin Chen's back, "Look again!" ”

As he continued to observe, the smile on Lin Chen's face gradually disappeared.

Xu Aqi is right, these people are not just dressed indiscriminately!

He found that there were men in the crowd wearing old-fashioned felt hats and cloth coats, as well as women with cheongsam ironing delicate small rolls. Even if there is, it will usually appear at the clothing exhibition! Walking on the road dressed like this, if you say it well, it is not in line with the trend, and if you say it badly, people will think that there is a nerve problem! Anyway, Lin Chen felt that ordinary people didn't wear it like this, but here, it was not strange! There are quite a few that are worn... Yes: Plain clothes and white clothes! There are old people poking crutches in their hands, sitting quietly on the bench, tasting snacks slowly with their hands, and some holding wine cups to drink silently.

Lin Chen gasped, it was all chrysanthemums, white and yellow chrysanthemums...

Occasionally, there are a few plants, which are also white lilies...

The trees here are pines and cypresses...

What's even more incredible is that not far away, someone is watering chrysanthemums on the side of the road, but holding a wine bottle...

Just as Lin Chen looked at him, the man seemed to realize that someone was watching, so he stopped, turned his head, and looked at Lin Chen... Again, all of them, as if they had agreed, stopped almost at the same time, turned their heads to their side, and looked at them both in silence.

Lin Chen's scalp was tight, as if it was tingling for a while.

"Why are they looking at both of us? Their gaze is so weird! Lin Chen, I'm afraid! ”

Xu Aqi's stupid boldness was gone at this time, she snuggled up to Lin Chen's side, grabbed his hand, and didn't dare to come out, her heart was beating wildly.

"Calm down!"

Saying this, Lin Chen was actually just as nervous, he straightened his back, and he could still feel that the soles of his feet and scalp were numb, numb one by one, and sweating profusely!

"Lin Chen, they, why are they all looking at the two of us!"

"Don't be afraid! Maybe, it's the two of us who look better! ”

I really can't find a reason to relieve Xu Aqi's nervousness, and this seemingly reasonable reason can still be said!

Who thinks, it's time for Xu Aqi, a stupid girl, to recognize the truth again!

"Do the two of us look good if they are spicy?"

This question really made Lin Chen cry and laugh! He glanced at Xu Aqi expressionlessly, Xu Aqi mechanically hooked the corners of his mouth, and Lin Chen also hooked the corners of his mouth mechanically as if he was infected, even if he was laughing, very reluctantly, and it did not reduce his tension by any point.

"Let's just think so! I said, my aunt, now is really not the time to talk about this! The atmosphere here is not right! ”

"Hmmm! It's so quiet! How can there be no sound here! Is there a ceremony going on here? Asking for quiet? Maybe just the two of us are talking, and unconsciously become outliers, that's why everyone looks at the two of us! ”

Suddenly, she said timidly: "Don't look at them! This place is so mad! Let's go! ”

As soon as Xu Aqi finished speaking, she suddenly felt a hot current gushing out of her nose, she wiped it with her hand, startled, "Ah! Blood! I had a nosebleed! ”

Lin Chen was stunned, looked sideways, and saw blood flowing out of Xu Aqi's nose.

"It's okay! Unafraid! It's on fire! ”

Lin Chen said calmly, he groped in his pocket for a long time, and didn't find anything, so he pulled a few chrysanthemums from the flowers on the side of the road, and when he bent over, Lin Chen saw that the watch on his wrist stopped.

He handed the chrysanthemum to Xu Aqi.

"Let's wipe it with petals first! I can't find anything else! ”

Xu Aqi took the chrysanthemum and pulled off a few petals, "This won't work!" ”

She looked around nervously, whispering to Lin Chen while wiping off her nosebleed with flower petals.

"Let's make it together first! If not, use more! I just found out that my electronic watch is stopped, do you look at yours, is there still time to show? ”

The blood was still flowing, and Xu Aqi finally found a tissue in the backpack, usurped it into a small column, and blocked it in the nostrils. When I looked up at my watch, I found that my watch had also stopped, and the hands were pointing at 12 o'clock.

She put her wrist under Lin Chen's nose, Lin Chen glanced down, took out the mobile phone from his trouser pocket, and found that the mobile phone was already turned off, he tried to turn it on, but the mobile phone kept a black screen and no response.

"This broken phone, it's not going to work again! No wonder the fat man said he couldn't get through! ”

Seeing this, Xu Aqi took out his mobile phone, and the state of the mobile phone was the same as Lin Chen's, with a black screen, as if the battery was exhausted.

"If the phone and watch are all stopped, it shouldn't be a problem with the electronic device itself!" Lin Chen continued in a very affirmative tone: "The book says that if there is a magnetic field nearby, electronic circuits, transistors, and radio equipment will often be interfered with and will fail, and it is said that Bermuda is because of the magnetic field that all the electronic equipment on the plane and ship will fail and disappear. Xu Aqi said.

"The latest investigation, isn't it because there are black holes under the sea in Bermuda?" Lin Chen thought for a while and said.

"Because of the black hole, maybe there are magnetic poles!" Xu Aqi replied.

Lin Chen leaned against the wall, turned his face sideways, and looked at Xu Aqi's blood-stained red columnar tissue blocked in his nostrils.

"You get the idea! If you know something, you can show it off! Let's not talk about black holes, magnetic poles! How's your nose? Is it still streaming? ”

"It's better! It shouldn't be flowing! ”

Xu Aqi said, sniffed his nose again, took out the blood-stained tissue from his nose, wiped it on his nostrils with his fingers, and saw that there was no blood on his hands, and let out a sigh. "I haven't had a nosebleed in almost a decade! The last time I had a nosebleed, it was when I took the entrance exam of the unit, and in the blink of an eye, I have been working in this unit for nearly ten years! ”

"If you are in a hurry, you will easily get nosebleeds!" Lin Chen said, "Let's go back!" ”

"Hmm!"

Xu Aqi responded, raised his eyes, and suddenly found something, nervously grabbed Lin Chen's sleeve, and said, "Lin Chen!" Lin Chen! Look! The old lady appeared! ”
