Chapter Eighty-One - I Choose Him

Zhou Congee smiled, "Brother, what are you talking about, how can dreams be taken seriously?" ”

Zhou Xin Yi said, "But that dream is really realistic, and ...... It's still a long way to go. ”

"Let's not talk about that, what's wrong with me?"

"Brother, you fainted while praying today," Zhou Congee said, "Are you sick?" ”

"Nope."

"That's your soul," Zhou Congee's brow furrowed even deeper, "You have to go out and walk more these days, you know?" ”

"You're a little adult."

Zhou Xinyi stood up and moved his muscles and bones, and suddenly there was a tingling pain, "Why am I in so much pain all over my body?" It's like you've fallen off something. ”

"Brother, don't you have osteoporosis, right?"

"Talking nonsense."

Zhou Xinyi twisted his shoulders, "Hiss...... Why does my waist hurt so much? ”

It shouldn't be, is it because you've been neglecting to exercise for a while?

"I remember, in my dreams, it seems like someone kicked me."

"Who?" Zhou porridge is a little curious.

"I don't remember," Zhou Xinyi recalled carefully, "It seems to be a crazy woman." ”

"Brother, your dream is really weird."

Zhou Xinyi ignored her complaints, and the afterglow held back to his palm.

How can there be such a big tooth mark in the palm of the hand?

Who bitten?

Zhou Xinyi intuitively felt that something was wrong.

After the back pain was not so obvious, Zhou Xinyi pushed the door and walked out of the bedroom, and saw a huge bronze mirror directly opposite the living room.

The bronze mirror has a smooth surface that fills an entire wall, reflecting everything in the living room.

But Zhou Xinyi was startled.

"How can there be such a big bronze mirror here?"

Zhou porridge also came out, "I have always had it at home." ”

"How is that possible?"

"You're really getting weirder, this bronze mirror is almost older than the two of us," Zhou Congee said, "Are you really my brother, have you been ghosted?" ”

"I'm not your brother, can I still be your father?"

Zhou Congee pursed his lips, "You know I didn't mean that. ”

"By the way, brother, I'm going to go out."

Zhou Xinyi asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

"Brother, have you forgotten, there is a parade today, and every living person has to go to receive a gift, if you didn't wake up just now, I was planning to go."

"Parade ......" Zhou Xinyi pondered the word carefully, recalling memories related to this aspect.

He lived in a strange place called Imi, and the year was divided into three quarters, each of which was cold, and the last quarter was called Deep Cold, which was the coldest time of the year.

Here are not only the living people such as him and Zhou Congee, but also many cold corpses wandering outside.

The cold corpses were slow to move due to their long exposure to the cold, mimicking the language of the living, and often speaking logical deranged words.

These living people are absolutely not allowed to talk to the cold corpse, because that will cause their identity to be discovered by the cold corpse, and the living who are found by the cold corpse will only be stripped of their clothes and tied to the center of the square to be frozen to death.

And the parade is a festival that comes every season.

The people who organize the parade will choose the right person from among the living people to play the wandering god, Zhou Xinyi does not know what the specific conditions are for playing the wandering god, so far, he has seen many different forms of the wandering god, some are young people, and some are even old ladies.

The only thing they have in common is that the person who plays the god dies within a week, but not all people who are dying are eligible to play the god.

As for whether the person who played the role of the wandering god became a cold corpse after death, or went somewhere else, he didn't know.

For ordinary people like him, who are struggling to survive, the greatest significance of the parade is to talk about what kind of person the wandering god is this season, and then get the food distributed from the people who accompany him.

"Look at what time it is, it's getting dark outside, so I'd better go."

The living corpses at night are always more excited, and some of the living corpses will even pounce on people, and the little girl is emotionally unstable, and once she screams, it will be over.

And as far as he knew, the parade was also an occasion for young people to get to know each other and look at each other.

Zhou Congee's character is not suitable for marrying too early, and those bastards are ...... A large part of them are not well-intentioned.

Zhou Congee pouted unhappily, "I also want to see Youshen." ”

"Don't go, wait for me at home."

"Brother, old stubborn, your sister and I are almost adults! It's okay to fall in love freely! ”

Zhou Congee shouted at Zhou Xinyi's back, and finally coaxed and returned to the house to sulk.

Zhou Xinyi had just closed the door at this moment, when a cold wind blew, and he immediately retracted his hand into his pocket.

It's cold.

Because he was in a coma for a while, Zhou Congee specially lit a fire in order to keep his body temperature.

Now it's like the temperature of two worlds inside and outside the house.

There were two living corpses passing by Zhou Xinyi's house, and these living corpses would always become active at night, mimicking the movements of living people, and each time they passed a building, they would knock on it twice with their hands.

Zhou Xinyi watched a living corpse knock on the window of his house, and saw that the Zhou porridge inside did not respond, so he set off with confidence and walked to the place where the parade was held.

At this moment, the boat porridge is cleaning up the sundries at home.

Noticing the large packages stacked in the utility area of the living room, she muttered, "How do you have such a big backpack at home?" Is it brother's? ”

She unzipped her backpack, revealing a pile of firewood and dry food that Zhou Xinyi had stuffed inside.

"Oh my God, where did you find this?" Her eyes almost lit up.

She flipped through excitedly for a while, and suddenly saw a piece of wooden object in her side pocket.

The thing was heavy, and she pulled it out hard.

When she saw it, she was so frightened that she slammed it to the ground.

"Ahh Muskets?! ”

Is it a gun? How can brother have a gun?!

After a while, Zhou Congee finally calmed down.

She knows what kind of person her brother is, and she won't do anything that causes danger to others.

So this gun, he thought he would be in danger and used it to defend himself?

That brother is out now, should he send him the gun?

Zhou Congee hesitated, remembering Zhou Xinyi's words before going out, and shrunk his neck.

Forget it, my brother won't forget such an important thing.

And if you go out rashly, you feel ...... When you come back, you will be scolded very badly.

On the other side, Zhou Xinyi quickly walked to the place where the parade began.

At the entrance to that street, a living man in a yellow uniform stands under a wooden plaque.

He was holding a sign with a sentence written on it: What did you eat for dinner today?

This is the irrationality of the income system.

If a living person is found by a cold corpse while talking, he will be targeted and tied to the square to freeze to death.

And if the living want to live here, there are always countless systems that force them to speak.

Just like this kind of gathering of living people, you must say a logical sentence to prove that you are a living person.

Zhou Xin Yi said, "I'm in a hurry, and I haven't eaten dinner yet." ”

The living man was let go.

The street was already filled with fresh faces, including men with dyed red hair, men with blue earrings, and a blind couple.

This red hair is really conspicuous, and this kind of hairstyle also looks flamboyant in income, which will attract the approach of the cold corpse.

For the sake of styling, do you even care about your safety?

Zhou Xinyi thought in his heart, if Zhou Congee wants to marry in the future, he can't marry this kind of man who has no sense of security.

And why are there blind people here? How do blind people survive from income, they can't even see the words on the signs.

But Zhou Xinyi doesn't plan to go up to talk, in income, gradually less communication is the most basic survival criterion.

Soon, a muffled drum sounded, and the float came from a distance.

This float is covered with brightly colored flowers, which are the brightest colors of the whole income, and young girls love to see.

And the wandering god carried on the float this time is also a young and beautiful woman.

She has long black hair, jet-black hair scattered among bright flowers, and the colorful petals of the petals set off her fair cheeks, making her red lips more delicate and her facial features more stunning.

What's even more striking is that her clear black eyes are dotted with a touch of bright green, as if to suck in the people who meet the eyes.

Zhou Xinyi couldn't take his eyes off it after just one glance, and watched the float stop in front of him.

It was also at this moment that Zhou Xinyi noticed the strangeness of the woman.

Her body didn't move, like a stiffened corpse.

What a beautiful man, alas, he will die in seven days.

Zhou Xinyi sighed silently in his heart.

He also noticed that the woman was holding a bottle of wine in her hand, and did not let go of the bottle of red wine, even though her limbs were already exhausted by the cold.

Was this woman an alcoholic before her illness?

Zhou Xinyi stood in front of the car and looked blatantly for a while, in fact, most people's eyes were now on this woman.

And what about the woman? She lifted her eyelids wearily and looked straight at him.

Seeing the woman's beautiful face, Zhou Xinyi subconsciously thought:

Do they know?

But this doubt was quickly dispelled.

How could he have recognized such a beautiful and special woman?

But soon, the woman spoke.

"Boat ...... Zhou Xin ...... Easy ......"

Zhou Xinyi raised his head suddenly, he peeked at the position of the person who was watching the float, and then quietly approached.

Raising his head to the woman, he asked, "Do you know me?" ”

The woman frowned, discerning his appearance.

"I remember...... Your name is ......," said the woman, "you...... Remember me...... What's it called? ”

Zhou Xinyi didn't know why, and blurted out a name, "Jiang Yi?" ”

"Your name is Jiang Yi?"

Jiang Yi nodded with difficulty.

The people who were supposed to be guarding the floats were handing out gifts, mostly rare meat, honey, or whatever.

They quickly arrived at Zhou Xinyi's location, and he didn't have time to communicate with Jiang Yiduo, so he quickly retreated.

Jiang Yi, on the other hand, struggled to pull out the red wine cork and poured a few sips of wine into his mouth.

The caretaker took a few catties of meat and said to Zhou Xinyi, "There are two people in the family, right?" ”

Zhou Xin Yi said, "That's right. ”

These grants are distributed according to the population.

But when it came to Zhou Xinyi's sake, the woman, that is, Jiang Yi, jumped off the float in front of everyone.

With a few petals curled by her hair, she threw herself into Zhou Xinyi's arms.

"I decided."

"His gift is mine."
