Chapter 61: A watermelon without a watermelon is not a good watermelon

"If this guess is correct, then I think the people in the village may not be sure whether we are humans or ghosts now, and you have also seen that they have been observing us, probably trying to determine whether we are the same as them through observation, and once they find out that we are alive, then ......"

Chen Wuji said this and did not continue.

Even if he didn't say the next words, the other three understood what he meant.

If found to be alive, they may be killed immediately.

"So we have to pretend we're like them, and we can't be too alarmed if we notice something wrong with them?" When Wang Xigua said this, his eyes kept glancing around, as if he was afraid that these words would be heard by others.

Fortunately, this area is relatively wide, and you can see at a glance whether there are Tibetans or not. The nearest room was also eight or nine meters away from them, and if they lowered their voices, the people inside the conversation would never be heard.

There was only a dead old tree around them, and the branches and leaves on it had fallen away, like a drooping old man.

Chen Wuji nodded: "Yes, even if the villagers in front of you suddenly bleed and their heads fall off, you can't turn around and run, so that the stuffing will be exposed, and only the living will be afraid of ghosts." ”

Wang Watermelon's face wrinkled, and his facial features became a little distorted because of this exerted expression: "Don't run away when you see the ghost...... It's a test of our mettle. ”

The school has taught them from an early age that they must turn around and run when they see a ghost, and they must not waste a second of their time.

Running away when you see a ghost has become a conditioned reflex for almost everyone.

At this time, you can't run in front of the ghost and have to pretend to be stupid, which is really uncomfortable.

"But will the ghosts in this village still possess themselves when they are fine, I still can't understand why Chen Ersan and I were in that situation yesterday." Mingyue looked a little worried, she was still thinking about what happened last night.

"I think it might have something to do with mirrors, because we don't have mirrors in the house. You also heard the village chief say that all the mirrors in the village have been put away, maybe the ghosts in this village are afraid of mirrors, and with mirrors, ghosts will not come to possess them again. Wang Watermelon intuitively felt that there was a great connection between the mirror and the ghost, but he couldn't say what the connection was for a while.

At this time, there was a "clucking" bird call overhead, Jiang Bei looked up, a big bird was squatting on the branch of a dead tree and looked down at them, and when he saw the people below looking up, the bird spread its wings and flew away.

"This bird...... Weird. Wang Watermelon looked up at the big bird that flew away, "It seems that this bird is calling near our yard this morning, and it always feels like it is following us." ”

Ebetsu felt the same way.

Mingyue withdrew her gaze from the bird with some uneasiness: "Since the ghosts in this copy may be afraid of mirrors, should we go to find mirrors next?" ”

But who knows where the mirrors are hidden, it is possible that they are all smashed and thrown away.

I don't know if the ghost is afraid of all reflective things.,If that's the case.,If that's the case.,It's okay for everyone to pee directly on the ground when they see the ghost.,Of course, this behavior is very insulting.,If you see a ghost, maybe you're more capable of fighting.。

And Jiang Bei felt a little strange, if these ghosts were afraid of mirrors, then how did they put away the mirrors in the first place?

"Don't let these ghosts discover our motives," Chen Wuji said softly, "or it will alert them." ”

"We all know that," Wang watermelon nodded, "let's pretend to visit the village, and then take the opportunity to see where the mirror might be hidden." ”

There is really nothing worth visiting in this village, only low and dilapidated houses, some of which are even made of earth, and it looks as if they are going to collapse at any moment.

The courtyard walls are also mostly made of blue bricks found on the side of the road, and the height is only up to the chest, so you can see the situation in the courtyard when you get close.

The four of them walked through the dilapidated houses, and from time to time someone peeked out from behind the window to spy on them.

Chen Wuji walked on the bumpy dirt road and lowered his voice and spoke: "The girl named Xiaomei mentioned the ancestral hall just now, I think the mirror may be hidden there, but unfortunately we are not familiar with this place and don't know where the ancestral hall is." ”

"If you take a closer look, you should be able to find it, the ancestral hall should be different from the place where people live......" Wang Xigua looked around restrainedly.

But they seemed to be going in the wrong direction, and the further they went, the more sparse the houses became, and as they walked, they even saw a large area of farmland in front of them.

"This seems to have come to the place where I entered the dungeon with Brother Dog," Wang Watermelon stood on tiptoe and looked forward, and suddenly saw a large green vine and leaf in the field in front of him, his eyes lit up, "Is that a watermelon field?" ”

Jiang Bei looked like it was true.

Most of the farmland in the base is used to grow grain and vegetables, only a very small part of the fruit is planted, and it is the kind of fruit that has a large yield and many fruits, and the ground for growing watermelons is small and very expensive, so 90% of the people in the base have not eaten this fruit.

"If we clear the dungeon, this watermelon field can also return to the base with us." His eyes were shining, "When my mother was pregnant with me, there happened to be a copy that produced a lot of watermelons, and half of the base was allocated to pregnant women and children, and my mother was divided into half at that time." ”

Can pregnant women eat watermelon? Jiang Bei was the first to think of this question.

But when I turned my head and thought about it, it was the end of the world, and I didn't pay so much attention to it, not to mention that this fruit was rare not to eat in vain.

She told me that she had never eaten watermelon before, and only then did she know that it was so delicious. She didn't want to eat all the half of the melon at once, so she cut it into many petals and only ate a little bit every day, and she didn't want to throw away the rest of the watermelon when it was spoiled...... But she hasn't eaten watermelons since that time, the melons produced by the base are too expensive, and there are not too many watermelons in later dungeons;

"If this copy is cleared, then there will be a lot of watermelons in our base, and the price will be cheaper, so I can buy it, and my mother will be happy to buy one and go home......"

He didn't say this, before Jiang Bei thought his mother had died.

I didn't expect it to be there.

"It's not ripe yet," Jiang Bei looked at the small, teabowl-sized melons and eggs in the field, "I'll have to wait a few more months." ”

Wang Watermelon scratched his head: "As long as you can buy it, it's nothing." ”

Just as Wang Watermelon was scratching his head, Chen Wuji suddenly reminded them in a low voice: "There are people over there." ”

Jiang Bei followed his gaze and saw that there was indeed someone on the other side of the watermelon field.

It was four or five male villagers, who were sneakily carrying the corpse in one direction.

The coat on the corpse was very familiar, Jiang Bei recognized it, it was the clothes of Zhu Ping'an.
