Chapter 57: A Quiet Factory
Xue Qian and I were walking on the country road, and I looked back. Only Mrs. Chai's house was lit up, and except for their house, every house was dark.
I couldn't help but shudder: what kind of village is this, why is it so terrifying?
Xue Qian followed me with my big knife and said, "Old Zhao, isn't your lantern able to show the way?" Where are we going now? ”
I looked at the lantern in my hand. Because the lampshade was so dark, not much light was leaking out. Holding it in your hand, it looks like a black iron ball that glows with a dark light.
I scratched my head: "Why is it different from what Mrs. Chai said?" ”
Xue Qian pointed to the door behind us: "Otherwise, let's go back and ask." ”
I waved my hand: "We're both embarrassed today." Let me try first, if it doesn't work, it's not too late to go back. ”
I stood on the path and shuddered, and shouted, "Bukit." ”
When I shouted, I felt the lantern in my hand suddenly cool, and it began to turn slightly as if it was alive. Then, I saw a glimmer of light leak out.
The light shone on the ground, reflecting a monster with the head of a snake head. It was staring at me and Xue Qian, and it seemed that it was black glasses.
I pointed at the monster and said to Xue Qian, "We should follow it, right?" ”
Xue Qian nodded, and the two of us walked forward together.
The lights flickered on and off, and my cries came and went. The two of us followed the light and gradually walked to the outskirts of the village. At this time, Xue Qian grabbed me, pointed to the wall next to me and said, "Is there a figure over there?" ”
I turned my head to see that there was a real shadow on the wall. The crooked body was backed by a huge head. It's exactly the same as the monster that leaked from the lantern.
I tentatively shouted, "Bukit? ”
The shadow flickered, as if it had promised. I swallowed and walked over slowly. I saw a bunch of vines lying on the wall, twisting and turning, quite similar to the shadow just now.
I tentatively opened the handle and pricked it with a thin needle. After a few seconds, a pattern on the lantern lit up.
I breathed a sigh of relief and said to Xue Qian, "It's done, let's go." "Who's lying
Xue Qian's expression also relaxed greatly: It seems that Mrs. Chai is right, this matter is not very difficult.
I nodded, thinking: get this done sooner and I'll be safe to go back.
The two of us walked farther and farther away in the dark, more and more remote. Eventually, there was no more light except for the lantern in our hands.
Xue Qian said with some worry: "Old Zhao." We're done in a while, can we go back? Do you know where this place is? ”
I also scratched my head worriedly: "Don't worry about it so much." Let's get this lantern done. ”
We walked for more than two hours, and only a small part of the monster on the lantern lit up.
Xue Qian said with some annoyance: "How did you get these black glasses, what are you doing with your soul running so far." ”
When I heard Xue Qian say this, my heart suddenly became nervous. I dragged him and said, "Old Xue, I'm a little unsure in my heart. ”
Xue Qian asked strangely, "What's wrong?" ”
I gathered my thoughts and said, "Do you remember?" Mrs. Chai once told the two of us, and Chai Ji gave him a dream, as if saying that he might not be able to save it this time, and said that the body should not be cremated, and if he didn't come back within seven days, he would just bury it. ”
Xue Qian nodded and said, "Yes, what's wrong with this?" ”
I said, "I always felt like it was saying. He didn't want to die, but his soul couldn't come back. Let Mrs. Chai keep the body and give him seven days. If you don't come back after seven days, you're dead. ”
Xue Qian waved her hand: "What does this have to do with us, he loves to come back or not." ”
I shook my head: "Old Xue, that's not the case. If someone really wants to take his soul. So the place we're going to go in a while is probably not very safe. ”
Xue Qian suddenly realized: "I understand, we want to eat black and eat black." ”
I smiled wryly and nodded.
Xue Qian stomped her feet and scolded: "I knew that Mrs. Chai was not a good thing." She'd thought of this for a long time, so she sent the two of us. What kind of people are old and not in good health. It's basically to let us fight a bloody way and snatch the soul back. "Infinite Abilities: Ultra-Forbidden Game
The two of us scolded for a while, but finally quieted down.
Xue Qian asked me, "What should we do?" ”
I looked behind me, it was dark, I couldn't see anything clearly. It's impossible to find your way back in this light.
I said, "We don't care, these souls, whoever likes to find them." Lao Tzu hates being calculated the most. Let's find a place to rest. I'll go back tomorrow. ”
Xue Qian nodded with satisfaction: "It's really the same thing that heroes see, that's what I think." Then he snatched the lantern from my hand and blew out the candle inside.
Suddenly, we were plunged into darkness. I couldn't help but be a little nervous: "Old Xue, what are you doing here?" ”
Xue Qian said: "This is called Lights Out Mingzhi. lest the ghosts of Bukit disturb us. Then he pulled out his phone and lit it up. Barely able to light the way.
I was a little worried and said, "Bukit's soul won't trouble us, will it?" ”
Xue Qian waved her big knife: "What are you afraid of?" We have knives. Directly cut him and scattered. ”
The two of us used our phones to light the road and barely walked for a while. We turned around a forest and some lights appeared in front of us.
Xue Qian smiled: "Lao Zhao, we have a place to live." ”
The two of us quickened our pace and walked over. I found that the place seemed to be a few factories. But the small factory was obviously shut down, and it was sitting there quietly, and if it weren't for the lights, I wouldn't have thought there was anyone inside.
The two of us walked over and patted the iron door.
A few seconds later, the iron door creaked and slowly opened. Inside stood a young man, straight.
He looked at me with a smile on his face: "You two, what do you have to say?" ”
I looked at this young man and couldn't help but be stunned. There was a young man living in such an old factory, and in any case, I felt a little out of place.
Xue Qian didn't think much about it, and said, "The two of us are lost and want to borrow here for one night." "Live in an infinite world
The young man smiled slightly, and said happily: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Then he got out of the way and invited us in.
As soon as I entered the gate, I saw several tall tiled houses and a small courtyard surrounding the city. It's a small factory.
The young man opened the door of a hut and shone a flashlight inside. said: "I am the only one in this place all year round. But this room has two more iron beds. Looks like they're waiting for the two of you. ”
He said this with a grin, and then turned around and went back to the duty room.
Xue Qian and I walked into the house, pressed the switch, and found that the light was broken.
I lit it up with my phone and groped my way to the iron bed. This bed was cool and hard. I touched it. It was found that the iron plate was only covered with a piece of cloth, and there was neither a mattress nor a quilt.
Xue Qian said dissatisfiedly: "This kid looks very easy to talk, why did he give us such two beds?" What's the difference between this thing and lying on the ground? ”
I sighed, slowly lay down on the iron bed, closed my eyes and said, "Let's talk about it in the evening." It is estimated that it will be dawn in a few hours. You see, this small factory has been shut down, and it is estimated that the benefits of others are not good. ”
Xue Qian sat on the bed, hugged her knees, and said, "Fortunately, I didn't mention the money just now, otherwise I would have lost a lot." ”
I walked for most of the night, and I was already very tired. The iron bed was uncomfortable, but it also made me a little confused.
When I was about to fall asleep, I suddenly heard Xue Qian say beside me, "Lao Zhao, I'll go to the toilet." ”
I mumbled in a daze.
I don't know how long it was, but suddenly I heard a lot of people shouting outside the window. It's like the waves of the ocean, from far to near, wave after wave.
I jerked up and got out of bed. The voices disappeared in an instant.
I raised my phone and looked at Xue Qian's bed. There was only a large knife on it, and he was gone.
I rubbed my temples: "Does it take so long to go to the toilet?" Something can't be wrong, right? ”
Thinking of this, I reached out and grabbed the big knife. I opened the door and walked out.
