Chapter 22: The Village
The emerald green stone slipped from the pocket, stained with my blood.
In the blink of an eye, the stone turned from emerald green to red.
Its color deepened rapidly, until it turned crimson, and then a red light was emitted.
Then I felt like I was being stuffed into the washing machine, and after a whirlwind, I passed out.
I don't know when I regained consciousness, but someone was feeding me in the haze.
I tried to open my eyes and look, but I fainted again.
For the rest of the year, I was always half-asleep and half-awake, and soon fainted again when I became conscious.
That stranger has been taking care of me as well.
Until one morning, there was a cacophony outside.
I heard the fat man arguing with someone else.
I opened my eyes, and this time I didn't faint.
I was lying in an unfamiliar room, and the whole room was furnished and furnished with a modern atmosphere.
Seeing this, I feel like I am meeting again after a long absence, where is this? Is it back to this world?
I tried to move, and the wounds on my body were healed, and there was not even a scar.
I was also changed into a set of bear pajamas, and my phone and two copper coin swords were placed at the head of the bed.
The argument continued, and I pushed open the door and walked out.
At the opposite door, there were seven or eight people in ancient costumes arguing with the fat man. There was a girl who looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old next to the fat man who was helping.
It's a small village.
It looks like we've left that cursed town.
I squeezed through the crowd and came to the fat man. The people around him were furious, as if they had just eaten gunpowder: "You get out of the way for me, we must kill this demon girl today!"
The fat man didn't care to talk to me, and not to be outdone, he said, "You bastards! Don't even think about it! ”
The men pressed on, apparently ready to make a move, and I tried to persuade them to fight, but the fat man kicked the one in front first, and said to me, "Help!"
I can't be persuaded to take it off the shelf, and I can't watch the fat man get beaten. After a fierce battle, the men were all knocked to their stomachs, and the fat man and I were no better.
I asked the fat man, "What the hell is going on?" Also, who is she? ”
The fat man said: "During the period when we were injured, we lived in other people's houses for more than a month, who do you say she is?"
The girl smiled at me, "You're finally awake, my name is Xiaoyun."
I also smiled at her, this little cloud is not outstanding, petite, dark-skinned, and freckles.
But it has an earthy feel.
Could it be that she was the one who fed me while I was unconscious? But how do I feel like ......
"Those people just ......"
The fat man said indignantly: "Those miscellaneous people just now actually wanted to bully a woman."
Xiaoyun also responded on the side: "That's it, they bullied Sister Xue'er."
I thought to myself, "Who is Sister Cher?"
Xiaoyun replied: "At that time, you and the fat big brother were in a coma at the entrance of the village, and it was Sister Xue'er who rescued you."
I asked again, "Then why are they bullying Sister Cher?"
Xiaoyun sighed and stopped talking, is there something unspeakable? I don't want to ask again.
When I returned to Xiaoyun's house, I took a picture in front of the mirror, my handsome face, blue nose and swollen face, the injury was just right, and I was hung up again. But this injury was suffered to protect the life-saving benefactor, and it was worth it.
The fat man woke up two days before me, and the surroundings were more familiar than mine, so I asked him to take me out for a walk.
On the way, I learned from the fat man that Xiaoyun was an orphan and lived alone. As for that Xue'er, the fat man had only seen her once, and she was a very beautiful woman who lived opposite Xiaoyun's house. But why those people bothered her, he didn't know.
This village, like the two towns it passed before, has no name.
In the clothing store, modern and ancient clothes are displayed together. Some of the people who come and go are dressed in ancient costumes, and some are dressed in modern clothes.
The currency they used was gold and silver, and the means of transportation was horse-drawn carriages.
I can't help but feel a little lost, the space here is still chaotic, what if I leave the bearded town? It's not the same as being trapped on the Highway of Death.
When is the head?
The fat man sighed: "I don't know what happened to Kang Zhan, although we have known each other for a short time, after all, we have been born and died together."
The fat man is a person who values love and righteousness, it seems that he doesn't know that Kang Zhan is a member of the Sorrow Society, should I tell him? After much hesitation, I chose to tell him.
When he heard this, he stomped his foot: "What the is this called?"
…………
Although it is a village, it is not at all smaller than the previous two towns.
The fat man thought that my temperament was not worthy of such cute pajamas, so he dragged me to buy a modern style of clothes.
I asked him where he got the money, and he said that he had earned it for the past two days.
By noon, we had almost finished shopping and returned to Xiaoyun.
Xiaoyun had already made lunch: "You guys are back, come and eat."
The fat man is not polite, he washes his hands and eats.
I'm a little reserved, I'm not too embarrassed.
Xiaoyun is a chatterbox, and he quickly got into conversation with me. I'm not so inhibited when I talk about it.
When I got acquainted, I tried to ask her, "Can I meet Sister Cher?"
Xiaoyun hesitated: "This ......"
I said, "Anyway, she's my savior, and I want to meet her."
Xiaoyun said: "Then I have to ask Sister Xue'er if I want to see you, but I have to wait until night, Sister Xue'er likes to sleep during the day and be active at night."
Sleeping during the day and active at night? What a weirdo.
But what I'm most worried about now is whether the people we beat up in the morning will come to me again.
However, after waiting for an afternoon, I didn't see them come to the door.
When night falls, there is no electricity in the village, so only candles can be lit.
Xiaoyun asked us to wait at home, and she went to help me ask Xue'er if she would like to see me.
After a long time, Xiaoyun still hasn't returned. I'm a little worried, could it be that those people kidnapped her in revenge?
I beckoned the fat man to go out and have a look.
Of the surrounding residents, only Xiaoyun's family lit the lamp. This village seems to be relatively wealthy, so it is not so poor that it is reluctant to light a sour candle, right?
When I came to Cher's door, I knocked lightly. After knocking for a long time, no one answered, but the door opened by itself.
There was a hint of yin qi in the door, and I felt that something was wrong, so I untied a copper coin sword and hung it on the fat man's neck: "Go back to Xiaoyun's house and wait!" Remember, don't take the coin down anyway! ”
The fat man let out an "oh" and ran away.
I hesitated for a moment and entered the door.
The yin qi in the courtyard was unusually strong, and I walked cautiously inside.
Suddenly, I saw a familiar figure in the courtyard - my good brother Guan Hao!
He smiled and said to me, "Brother! Long time no see. ”
I burst into tears with excitement: "Brother, it's been a long time."
wanted to step forward and give him a hug, but Rose suddenly appeared and stopped: "Danger! Don't go over! ”
My brain cleared up instantly, I shook my head vigorously, who is Guan Hao in front of me? It's clearly a scarecrow with a knife.
Is this a ghost hitting the wall? No, how can a ghost hit the wall hide from my eyes?
The temperature around me plummeted, and I shivered from the cold. Some steam-like smoke rose from the ground, and the smoke cleared, and the courtyard was full of unjust spirits!
