Anxious to rush back to the passenger house, without waiting to enter, Li Zheyu and his wife heard the footsteps outside and ran out first, and saw that it was us. Both men breathed a sigh of relief. But soon Li Zheyu stared at me hesitantly and said, "What's the matter with your face?" So swollen? ”

I didn't answer and asked, "Is Feng Tiansong back?" ”

Li Zheyu shook his head, and then looked at us, looking like he wanted to say something. I knew he wanted to know how bad our relationship had deteriorated, because the wound on my face wasn't light.

So I immediately comforted him, "We are all confident that we can get out of here, so the most important thing now is that we must save our lives in danger!" ”

Li Zheyu said in disbelief, "Can we really go out?" ”

I said firmly, "Absolutely!" ”

Li Zheyu still wanted to speak. Du Lei looked a little impatient and said, "Don't talk nonsense." Let's start by renovating the house. In this way, our lives can be safeguarded! ”

Du Lei is right, since we saw the photo of Feng Tiansong in the newly abandoned house, we all have a feeling that even if Feng Tiansong mysteriously disappeared, his fate may not be the same as Li Zheyu's companions, and he will never come back.

If Feng Tiansong had been here when he was very young, no matter what, he should have a certain understanding of this place, and it should be no problem to save his life. The most anxious thing at the moment is that we must add some security to ourselves before danger comes.

So we're fast. Under Du Lei's command and Xiao Qicai's assistance, a simple rope trap, a simple alarm device and a map of the village were redrawn, so that once there was any trouble, we would not be caught off guard and could escape in an orderly manner.

The trap is placed at the entrance of the door, which is the main road leading to the two rooms.

From design to completion, the entire process was completed by Du Lei himself. The material is actually very simple, with a rope and a knife will do. There was no ready-made rope, so we brought Li Zheyu into the village, and the spare clothes were rolled into ropes, which may not be very strong, but Du Lei said that it was enough. Because the villagers here are basically very thin and small, they should have no problem bearing about 120 pounds.

The composition of the entire trap consists of curved bamboo. The source of the elastic force (fortunately we searched for a long time, and there is still this plant in the village) mechanism buckles, touch levers, loopers, pedals, etc.

To put it bluntly, the practice of this trap actually uses the principle of leverage, and if someone steps on it with their feet, it will be directly hung up there. Hanging on the beam of the thatched hut, in order to ensure that the trap can be successfully set off, Du Lei also sharpened all the bamboos that make up the pedal and put it underneath, so that even if the rope is broken, at least the part where the target touches the pedal can be pierced instantly. And if the target is hoisted in mid-air and the rope breaks, it will make a sound after landing, which can be heard even if we sleep like a dead pig in the middle of the night.

Of course, everything is assumed on the basis of someone breaking in in the middle of the night.

After Du Lei's trap was done, Xiao Qicai nailed the straw mat on the door beam at the door (this is when we moved in on the first day, nailed it to block the wind) She installed a miniature sensor on it, the principle of action is a bit similar to the vibration alarm of an electric car, once someone enters the house when the action is too big, there is an 80% chance of alarming, of course, if this person sneaks in, the alarm is also very likely to fail. After all, the materials here are limited, and Xiao Qicai can't be perfect.

Although the alarms made by Xiao Qicai are not as high-end as the infrared alarms, laser alarms, video motion alarms, sonic alarms, etc. in the city, it can be regarded as a little protection for the safety of our lives.

……

With all that said, we ushered in our third night in the rainy village. Because the concept of time here is very vague, and the metabolism of the human body seems to be different from usual, so our living habits are also different from usual, no one proposed to wash up or anything, so I went directly into the house and lay on the straw mat, ready to sleep well, and recuperated to get up early tomorrow morning to continue to find Feng Tiansong.

However, many people had insomnia that night, and when I slept until midnight, I heard the little colorful body not far away turning over and over, as if there were a lot of things on my mind, and I couldn't sleep. And at that time, in the dark, although I didn't see it very really, I also felt that the direction in which Xiao Qicai was lying seemed to be facing me, was she secretly looking at me?

Thinking of this, I coughed lightly, and sure enough, I saw that Xiao Qicai's head seemed to turn in an instant. It's like someone suddenly breaking through a secret, and even though it's a bad situation right now, I find it very funny.

So I coughed a few times, and I slowly sat up from the ground a little bit, and Xiao Qicai turned her head again, lying on her side and looking at me. I waved my hand at Little Colorful and she seemed to glare at me and wanted to turn her head away.

But at the moment when Xiao Qicai's body had just moved and the movement of turning his head had not been completed, there seemed to be a very slight sound of footsteps moving around suddenly from outside the passenger house. We had heard this sound a few days ago when we were in a daze, but at that time, because we were asleep, and there was a warning from Sun Yong (a taboo in the village), we didn't have much to say. But now the situation is different, firstly, Xiao Qicai and I are awake, and secondly, Feng Tiansong has also mysteriously disappeared, so at this time, Xiao Qicai and I are both vigilant and curious, wanting to see what is going on with the footsteps outside.

It was again that I made a gesture to Xiao Qicai, sat up gently, and tiptoed towards the door. After walking a few steps, I stopped, because I saw that Little Qicai was also like me at this moment, slowly sitting up from the same place and walking towards me.

After a while, Xiao Qicai hunched over and walked to me like a kitten, and the hands of the two of us were unconsciously clasped together, and Xiao Qicai leaned over and whispered, "Big pufferfish, listen carefully, the footsteps outside seem to be at the door." I feel...... Could someone be hovering at our door right now? ”

Originally, I was so close to Xiao Qicai, and the darkness would have accelerated people's hormone secretion, so I was shaking my heart, almost unable to grasp it, and wanted to hold her tightly in my arms, but her words completely pulled me back from the state of confusion and confusion in an instant!

Rustle, rustle......

Footsteps rang again. At this moment, Xiao Qicai and I both felt our heartbeats speed up a little. Unconsciously, our hands tightened a little tighter.

Because there is no doubt that there must be something outside, but whether it is a person or the endangered creature of Xinjiang that we encountered last time, we are not sure, but the only thing that is certain is that there is something outside.

Xiao Qicai and I looked at each other for a while, and Xiao Qicai asked me quietly, "Do you want to go over and have a look, or go back to sleep?" ”

I looked at Du Lei and Yu Mubai, who were sleeping a few meters away from us, thought about it, and said in the same very small volume, "Go over and take a look!" ”

Little Colorful nodded.

Then, I pulled her a little bit towards the door. The reason why we walked slowly was because with every step we took, we could hear a rustling sound outside the door.

The voice sounded creepy in the middle of the night.

And when I thought that there was no door in our house, and there was only a straw mat between us and the "thing" outside, and that thing could break in at any time, Xiao Qicai and I felt even more frightened and short of breath.

Subconsciously, I hugged Xiao Qicai's waist. Xiao Qicai didn't object, and hugged me tightly.

Because I think that if I am close to her, I will feel a little safe, and Xiao Qicai may think the same way.

In short, when the "rustling" sound got closer and closer, as long as the door curtain was opened, you could see the things outside, and Xiao Qicai's forehead, palms, and nose tips secreted a lot of sweat beads.

Little Colorful shrank in my arms, and said in a lower voice, "Outside...... What the hell is it? ”

The rustle sounded again.

Xiao Qicai and I didn't dare to move.

Although we have experienced so many things, the feeling of feeling the existence of that thing outside across the straw mat in the rainy village at that time is probably the most memorable for us.

Because after the thing made a sound, Xiao Qicai's bodies and I were a little stiff, and we didn't dare to move when we stood there, as if someone had been immobilized.

And that thing out there......

It was as if the movement stopped, and there was no sound at the same time.

Later......

I waited for Xiao Qicai and I for a long, long time, and even my muscles were a little sore, so I thought that thing should leave, right? However, when I thought of the black shadow I had seen in the waste during the day, I felt that it was not so simple.

But if it's the dark shadow, it should be an ordinary human, right?

Maybe it's a villager who is watching the movements of us out-of-town tourists? And then report it to some people? So? Who's going to deal with us?

In addition, at that time, Sun Yong repeatedly warned us not to go out in the middle of the night, was it a trick, or was there really some extremely terrifying incident in this village, which would happen in the middle of the night?

I can't think of a very reasonable answer, but ......

According to Sun Yong's words at that time, he just warned us not to go out, and didn't say that we couldn't gently lift the straw mat and secretly go to see the situation outside!

And for what is out there at this moment, Xiao Qicai and I are still very curious!

If it is an endangered creature, we don't need to scare ourselves at all, in fact, there is no danger! There's no way the animal could have eaten us!

Thinking of this, I made up my mind to open a crack in the straw mat and see what was out there!

Considering that Xiao Qicai installed an alarm on the straw mat, my movements were very light, and I was a little reluctant to let go of Xiao Qicai's waist and walked to the front of the straw mat, and then, almost slowly, slowly, little by little lifted the straw mat!

And next......

With the action of me lifting the straw mat, an extremely terrifying and extremely strange human face appeared in the field of vision in an instant!

At that moment, the man was also bent over, almost in the same movement as me, and the faces of the two of us, facing each other, were separated only by a layer of straw mats!

His eyeballs, motionless, bulging out forcefully, stared into my eyes!

The tip of his nose is less than a centimeter away from the tip of mine!

It's almost clinging!

At first glance, all my blood clotted in the blood vessels in an instant, and my heart contracted violently like never before, and I almost screamed! The woman had just died.
