Chapter 386: A Year Ago, A Year Later
The illusions surrounding the village and outside are all related to the man in front of him.
I jumped off the roof, searched carefully in the yard, and finally found the fangs that I had thrown out before, and the gnats and mines ate sweets, and my heart was a little lighter, and soon I became confused, and when Li Huaishan lit the bonfire, the two of them fell asleep in the corner of the yard.
Li Huaishan handed me two compressed biscuits and pouted at the man lying on the ground: "What are you going to do with him?" ”
I said, "I haven't thought about it yet, let's wait until he wakes up, and I just happen to have some questions for him." ”
As I spoke, I quickly walked up to the man and dragged him into the courtyard.
Now I can't say how the poison on Fat Dahai's head came about, if the people who attacked him were Mia and Xiao Jiu, or the man I caught, I can understand, after all, Fat Dahai is too much worse than them, they are afraid that Fat Dahai will fall into our hands, shake their plan, and naturally want to kill people.
But apart from those few spirit runes with white phosphorus powder attached to the man's body, there are no other poisonous things on his body, and it is unlikely that Mia and Xiao Jiu have poison on their bodies, if they have these things on them, they will use them when dealing with me and Li Huaishan.
What I fear most now is that the murderer is not any of these three people, and if that is the case, it means that there is another opponent in the village who has not been seen so far.
Li Huaishan came up to me, handed me another bottle of mineral water, and asked, "Are you lying?" ”
I looked up at him, "When did I lie?" ”
Li Huaishan thought for a while and said, "Didn't you say that Chen Mi and Cinnabar can break the illusion here, but I can't see that what you arranged is an ordinary sun-guarding array, and it has no effect on removing illusions at all." ”
I smiled, "I just said that cinnabar will beat, but I didn't say that the spell I set up can break the illusion." ”
Li Huaishan: "You said, the mine and the old cat have been here before, and they have done evil here, is this a lie?" ”
Still smiling, I pulled out a cigarette from the cigarette pack: "I just said that there was such a possibility, and I didn't make up my mind, can it be considered a lie?" ”
Li Huaishan snatched my cigarette pack, took out a cigarette from it, lit it, frowned and asked me: "But what is the use of what you say, I can't figure it out after thinking about it for a long time." ”
I said to him, "Soldiers, treacherous, strange and strange. There was no particular purpose in saying this, just to draw Mia's attention, and because there was no specific purpose, they couldn't guess what I was going to do. Coupled with the fact that they are just like you, it also means that I have set up a spell to break the illusion, thinking that I have set a trap and waiting for this guy to take the bait. ”
As I spoke, I pointed to the man lying by the wall, and then said: "Next, these two girls will definitely take action, whether it is to report to the people outside, or simply want to kill us, in short, they will show some horses." The enemy does not move, we can only lead them by the nose and move, this is a manifestation of strangeness. ”
Li Huaishan: "How do you know that they will definitely make a move, since you know that they are ghosts, why don't you do it in advance, and wait for them to show their feet before making a move?" ”
"It's not for nothing to get the heart-eye inheritance from Boss Huang." I glanced at Li Huaishan first, and then said to him: "Because everyone present is suspicious, I am not sure which people are ghosts, so it is necessary to wait for the other party to ask the question." Speaking of which, I didn't expect at the time that Fat Dahai was also their person. ”
Li Huaishan nodded: "Yes, Fat Dahai's reaction at that time was too fast, Mia hadn't rushed to the door yet, he rushed over first, and he was afraid that you would stop him, so he deliberately avoided you." ”
After speaking, Li Huaishan smacked his tongue and patted me: "You guy, you don't usually lie, but you panic...... It actually got me in. ”
I spread my hands: "I didn't tell a lie from beginning to end, okay, as for how you understand my words, that's your problem, it's my business!" ”
Li Huaishan spit out a puff of cloud smoke, slowly leaned back, and lay on the ground: "Oh, if this was put in the past, so many people died in front of me, I would have been so scared that I would have peed my pants, and now I still have the leisure to chat with you here, think about it, you said that for more than a year, how did we survive it." ”
I took a sip of water and asked him with a smile: "I think back then, when you were possessed by the Yin God, I didn't see you scared to pee." ”
"That time was different," Li Huaishan also had a playful expression: "At that time, I fainted before I could react, and if I delayed for a while, I would probably urinate." ”
After he said this, the two of us fell into silence, and after a while, Li Huaishan suddenly grinned, and I swallowed the water in my mouth and laughed along.
The grasshopper, who had been sleeping soundly, would have been woken up by the two of us, staring at us both with a pair of eyes and looking at us like monsters.
Li Huaishan glanced at the gnats with a grin, and then turned his head to me and asked, "What about the gnats and mines?" We can't let them follow us, we don't know what will happen later. Hey, I'm wondering, why don't you try to contact Hu Nanqian and let her come first and get the gnats and mines out. ”
I took out my mobile phone, lit up the screen, and shook it in front of Li Huaishan: "There is no signal in this place, and Hu Nanqian can't come." ”
Li Huaishan pinched out his cigarette and kept frowning: "Then let the two of them follow like this?" It's hard to survive these two, don't kill people again when the time comes. ”
I glanced at the gnats and said, "Try to keep them safe." ”
The gnats were also nervous now, just staring at me, but unable to speak.
Looking at the appearance of the grasshopper, I secretly made up my mind that I would not follow such a team into the mountains in the future.
In addition to feeling troublesome, there is another reason that I can't escape, and that is the indifference that comes from the depths of my heart.
I don't feel uncomfortable at all after the death of so many people, let alone guilt, in fact, I also know that in addition to treating friends and relatives, other people's lives have always been ignored in their eyes.
Once upon a time, I also constantly comforted myself that no matter what happens in the future, I will not become such a person, until now I know that after staying in the family for so long, I have become like the second master and them, and have learned to disregard human life.
There is even such a sentence in the classics of the family: "Human life is not a mustard, but the deceased has passed away, why is it sad?" ”
These words were said by the old lady of the previous generation to the second master when he first returned to his family, and later compiled into a small allusion and wrote it in the classics of the family.
Presumably, when the second master was young, he was also a person who was extremely enthusiastic about life, so there was such a conversation between him and the old lady.
As soon as I entered the clan, it was as deep as the sea, the second master changed, and I also changed.
Whenever I don't want to face my current self, I always look back on the past and try to see what I looked like a year ago, but whenever I pick up flowers, I always find that my past self has become a yellow flower of tomorrow, and it is difficult to leave any traces in the years.
Maybe since the moment when the second master inspired the true nature in me, the past me has disappeared from this world.
The mine also woke up, and was now cowering behind the grasshopper, stunned by the firelight.
I beckoned to the two of them, "Come, come and sit down." ”
The grasshopper hesitated, but did not move, and the mine cowered into the corner.
With a smile on my face, I still beckoned to them: "Come here, get closer to the fire, and you won't be so afraid." ”
Hearing my words, the grasshopper slowly stood up and walked near the campfire, and the mine hesitated for a long time before finally following me.
I placed a bottle of mineral water next to the fire pit and slowly simmered the water in it against the residual temperature on the ground, while asking the grasshopper, "Are you nervous?" ”
The grasshopper nodded.
I smiled at him, "You two are good, the first time I encountered this kind of thing, I was more nervous than you." Later, after seeing a lot, I realized that it is useless to be nervous and afraid. Truth be told, I don't know what's going to happen next, and I'm not sure I'll be able to protect you. If you want to live, you must not rely on us alone, but also on yourselves. Landmine used to play rock climbing a lot, right? ”
Landmine nodded at me from afar, and he probably wondered how someone like me could know about his early hobbies.
I smiled and said to him: "Actually, the current situation is the same as when you climbed the mountain, but you just hit a loose stone and encountered a cliff peak that is difficult to walk. ”
Li Huaishan added some dry firewood to the fire pit, and the mine looked at the constantly beating flames, and fell silent for a while.
When the water by the fire pit was almost simmering, I picked up the bottle and handed it to the grasshopper: "You drink half a bottle, and the rest is for the mines." ”
In this cold night, a bottle of warm water seemed to have great power, and the warmth flowed into the stomach, and the look of the gnats and mines was finally soothed.
The gnats wrapped themselves in a jacket, leaned in a little towards me, and whispered to me, "What are you doing, what are these people doing?" ”
As he spoke, his gaze briefly lingered on the man.
I felt that his tone of voice became calmer, and the pressure on my heart was a little less, but I just smiled at his question and responded: "If I have the opportunity in the future, I will explain it to you." ”
Li Huaishan threw the last handful of firewood into the fire pit, looked at the man with five flowers, and then pouted at me and told me that the man was awake.
