Chapter 132: Death
All of them didn't know what was going on, standing in the open space and smoking cigarettes with nothing to do.
"Look, that's the direction of my house." Xiao Yulian's brothers pointed the way to the homeless, and everyone stood together on the edge of the rock, looking out at the verdant mountain col in the distance.
Lao Yu said excitedly, "It's so good that you guys, the ground is also green in winter." ”
"Yes, you can plant several crops a year."
"It's been a long time since I've been home!" Xiao Ziqiang sighed, "I don't know if my two dolls still recognize me." ”
"The last time I walked the dart for three months, my two-year-old baby recognized her life, or I bought a lot of glutinous rice candy to coax it......"
"Invite me to drink when it's time," Wu Sihai said, "don't talk and don't talk." ”
"Don't worry, we don't have anything else at home, and the rice wine is enough."
Everyone was chatting lively, and on the fork in the road, Ren Yi and Xiao Yulian walked over in silence.
Hearing the footsteps, everyone turned around and looked at the two of them expectantly, "When are we leaving?" ”
"There's no hurry." Xiao Yulian said lightly.
Xiao Ziqiang scratched his head, "There is still half an hour away, everyone is in a hurry to go home, will you rest when you arrive?" ”
Xiao Yulian barely controlled her expression and walked up and said, "Big brother, come here, I have something to say to you." ”
"What's wrong?" Xiao Ziqiang was surprised, "Sister, why is your face so bad?" Under the weather? ”
"I'm sorry." She shook her head quietly.
Xiao Ziqiang smiled, "It's all my own family, what do you say I'm sorry for......?"
Bang!
Xiao Yulian suddenly had red eyes, took out her gun tremblingly, and pulled the trigger!
Xiao Ziqiang staggered and fell, clutching his chest in pain, his eyes full of disbelief.
Bang bang bang!
"No...... Forgive me! ”
Xiao Yulian shouted, tore off the shotgun on his back with both hands, burst into tears, and swept like crazy at the row of familiar figures in front of her!
"Why?!" The dart masters shouted, "Lord, why are you!" ”
Their eyes were filled with despair, and they fell to the ground one after another.
In the blink of an eye, the ground was covered with the corpses of more than a dozen dart masters, dripping with blood.
Their eyes were fixed in the direction of the distant village, their lips kept trembling, and their eyes were unwilling.
Xiao Yulian threw away the empty gun in her hand with a loud cry and cried loudly.
"What's going on!"
Lao Yu and the others were completely stunned by the scene in front of them, and they didn't dare to move, grabbing Ren Yi's arm and shouting.
Xiao Yulian numbly turned to Ren Yi and said, "Dao Chief, please leave our corpses to you to dispose of, don't let us become that kind of thing that keeps regenerating." I thank you on behalf of all of you. ”
Ren Yi nodded.
"Also, please bring a message to their family. After so many years, although they have long since died...... But I let them know the result. ”
"You are a kind person, my words are still counted, this mountain is vast and sparsely populated, and the soil is also fertile, everyone who is willing to stay can stay."
Xiao Yulian slowly lowered her head, "Also, about the containment." I'm not telling you the truth. ”
"Something is really on me. At that time, I didn't know you well, and we people have been crawling in the wilderness all year round, and we are often defensive. ”
Ren Yi nodded, "I thought of it." You said that thing has several abilities, how can you not defend yourself when you go out. The stockade is full of old and weak women and children, and it is useless to leave it to them. ”
"That's it."
Xiao Yulian quickly rummaged through it, and quickly found a palm-sized book from the blanket on her back.
Ren Yi took it, the thing was dusty, and the surface was made of leather, I don't know what kind of leather. The leather surface is covered with scratches, and the inner pages are yellowed and rolled, making it look like an ordinary ledger.
The wind blew the inner page, Ren Yi glanced at it, and it vaguely wrote, "January 25th, Ding Wansheng, 4 quintals of salt......"
Isn't this just a ledger?
Xiao Yulian said: "This thing is called "The Story of Your Life". ”
"This thing wasn't ours originally, it was a long, long time ago, a Taoist priest landed in our stockade. You're also a Taoist priest, coincidentally, this is probably fate. ”
"There's something special about this thing, it's not accurate to say it's a book, in fact, it should be called a 'time tunnel'."
"Having become its owner, your whole life is like being laid flat on paper. All the experiences are vivid, and everything you encounter can be visualized from your memories, including the Advent and the containment. At this point, their abilities are yours. ”
Ren Yi's eyes were stunned when he heard this, the ability of this thing was indeed unprecedentedly strange.
"The duration of the figuration is determined by the life energy of the owner. As long as it is supplied, your embodied abilities will not disappear. ”
"You've seen a lot of dangerous scenes. This thing can only be used to the greatest effect when it follows you. ”
Ren Yi took it.
Xiao Yulian sighed, "Our money...... It's probably long gone. I don't have anything to give you, so I'll give you my honorarium. The rest is up to you. ”
"Got it. Thanks a lot. Ren Yi nodded, "I will dispose of your corpses and send the news back to Wangyun Village." ”
With that, Xiao Yulian put the gun on her temple.
Bang!
After a gunshot, she slowly fell to the ground.
Lao Yu and the others were so frightened by what happened one after another that they trembled, and they didn't dare to come out.
Ren Yi walked to the dart master on the ground, and they fell to the ground in various postures, their faces full of despair and unwillingness.
Ren Yi closed their eyes one by one, touched them again, and each found a personal item. He took off Xiao Yulian's blanket and put these pendants, keys, daggers and other items together with Xiao Yulian's silver bracelet.
"They have been polluted by bamboo forests for a long time, but they haven't noticed it yet. After getting along all the way, let's help send them away. Ren Yidao.
The fire burst into flames, engulfing corpses.
The white, knotted bamboo roots creaked in the fire and turned to ashes.
"Codename: 'In the Cage'."
"Ability: 'Thrive.'"
Ren Yi silently repeated in his heart what the goddess had said to him a long time ago.
"Characteristics: Entrenched in the southwest for a long time, the image is no different from that of ordinary bamboo forests, relying on its own camouflage to absorb the life energy of nearby mountain people to maintain its awakening state. However, it has an autonomous consciousness that plants do not have, and can trap humans who have strayed into the bamboo forest, and the roots burrow into the corpses to provide nutrients and maintain their pre-existing state. As a puppet, the corpse does not know the truth that it has died, but is alienated as a part of the 'cage', away from the main body, and continues to lure more humans into it in order to expand its own scale. ”
"When the number of puppet living corpses decreases sharply, in order to ensure that its body is not harmed, a large number of living corpses will be copied from the base, and this kind of individual produced by replication does not have the ability to think, and has only one purpose - to kill the invader."
"Let's go." Ren Yi looked at the scorched black earth after the fire was extinguished.
"Where are we going next?" Lao Yu asked.
Ren Yi turned around and walked back to the car, "Go to Wangyunzhai and inform them of their deaths." ”
