Chapter 146: Coming Home. (Second Update!) Ask for a subscription! )

Call...... Call...... Call......

The cold wind was howling, the persimmon tree in the yard was shaking, and the faces of several children climbing on it changed slightly, and they immediately grabbed the trunk of the tree to stabilize their bodies.

Thump!

Suddenly, a shriveled persimmon could not hold it anymore and fell from the treetop into the pool, making a muffled sound that broke the dead silence in the yard.

Looking at Ji Li, who was walking step by step, all the children's hearts were tight.

Click, click, click...... Ji Li's hands were exploring in mid-air, his feet moved a little bit, he walked very slowly, but the goal seemed to be very clear, and he approached Zhou Zhen step by step.

Zhou Zhen looked at him quietly, and the other children in the yard subconsciously held their breath and watched Ji Li's every move without blinking.

At this time, Ji Li's had already walked to the middle of the courtyard, but he suddenly turned around and groped towards the position of the vegetable furrow.

Lu Xingkuan, who was hiding in the vegetable furrow, suddenly frowned, he looked at his side, he was the only one nearby!

So, Lu Xingkuan immediately held his breath and didn't let himself make a single movement.

Ji Li groped his way forward, and just as he was about to touch the branches and leaves of the hedge in front of him, he suddenly turned around and touched in the direction of Zhou Zhen again.

Seeing this, Lu Xing Kuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Zhou Zhen stared at Ji Li, but he didn't make any moves.

Ji Li took a few steps in the direction of Zhou Zhen, then turned around without warning, and walked towards the location where Lu Xingkuan was.

This time, he groped his way into the vegetable bed, and when he came to a place only two or three steps away from the width of the road, he hesitated to stop, groped his hands in the air for a while, and then slowly squatted down and began to grope around the dirt at his side.

He touched the soft soil, the wet straw, and the tender leaves......

Lu Xingkuan lay motionless not far away, watching Ji Li's actions, his expression gradually became a little serious.

However, after Ji Li's side touched the vegetable furrow on his side, he didn't seem to find it, so he changed direction again and walked towards Zhou Zhen.

Zhou Zhen raised his head slightly, looking at the road in the distance, the other party still maintained the action of lying in the vegetable bed, but cold sweat was already oozing from his forehead.

seemed to feel something, and at this time, Lu Xingkuan also turned his head slightly and looked at Zhou Zhen.

The two glanced at each other, but they didn't make any sound, but they both knew it in their hearts.

The child of the village chief's family, although his eyes are blindfolded, seems to know the location of the two of them, and he must be hiding someone!

They don't know what the consequences will be if they lose this seemingly childlike game.

But just by looking at the scene of all the adults leaving just now, there is absolutely nothing good about being caught first!

At this time, Ji Li had already come to a position one step in front of Zhou Zhen, and began to reach out and touch forward.

Crash...... Crash...... Ji Li's thin palm touched the adobe courtyard wall, and with his exploration, the wall that had been eroded by the north wind suddenly fell crumbs and blades of grass.

Ji Li touched the wall very seriously, just like just now, he touched it, slowly squatted down, and began to grope on the ground.

Several times, his fingers almost touched Zhou Zhen's feet, and several times, his arms were only one or two centimeters away from the corners of Zhou Zhen's clothes, and he was in danger.

Ji Li carefully touched the walls and ground around Zhou Zhen, and he was just a little bit away from finding Zhou Zhen, but in the end he found nothing.

So, he turned again and walked towards the position where the road was wide.

This time, Lu Xingkuan's face changed significantly, watching Ji Li get closer and closer, until he walked in front of him, and continued to move forward, Lu Xingkuan no longer hesitated, and immediately moved a step back.

As soon as he moved, Ji Li's movements suddenly froze, as if he had discovered something, his head turned suddenly, and he looked straight towards Lu Xingkuan.

Lu Xingkuan's face suddenly became extremely ugly, and he quickly looked at Zhou Zhen and made a gesture to wipe his neck.

Zhou Zhen instantly understood what Lu Xingkuan meant, Lu Xingkuan wanted him to use the "digital domain" immediately to solve Ji Li!

However, he doesn't actually have any "digital energy" at all, and he can't use a "digital domain"!

Moreover, his head has not been caught by the door, now at this time, why sacrifice himself to save a murderer in a high-risk city?

So, Zhou Zhen stood by the wall, motionless, as if he didn't see it.

At this time, Ji Li continued to move forward, his hands hanging low, and he touched straight towards Lu Xingkuan.

Lu Xingkuan continued to retreat between the soft mud floors, constantly staring at Zhou Zhen.

Zhou Zhen looked at this scene calmly, indifferent.

Ji Lixi seemed to have a clearer goal this time, and there was no turning back, and he walked faster and faster.

Although this yard is large, the place for the vegetable furrow is limited, and the position selected by the road line is also a corner of the vegetable furrow, and at this moment he has taken a few steps back in a row, and he is forced into the corner, and there is no way to retreat.

Seeing that the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, Ji Li's next moment was about to touch him, Lu Xingkuan couldn't care so much for a while, so he immediately picked up a brick in the vegetable furrow and smashed it directly at Ji Li, who pounced on him.

Bang!!!

※※※

The simple thatched house, the windows and doors have many gaps, and the cold wind wraps the moonlight, pouring in together, making the small house like an ice cellar.

The frosty moonlight illuminated the silhouette of the room.

Lu Xingkuan opened his eyes sharply, and immediately saw the old ceiling.

The straw mat is crudely made, and straw of different lengths leaks through the gaps.

The dusty roof seems to be about to fall at any moment.

He gasped for breath, looked at the not-so-unfamiliar surroundings around him, and gradually came back to his senses.

It wasn't dawn yet, and I had a nightmare just now......

Lu Xingkuan shook his head slightly, he took four of his subordinates into the space-time tunnel this time to find the elixir.

But unexpectedly, as soon as he crossed over, he lost contact with four of his subordinates.

Moreover, he doesn't have any "digital energy" at all now, and his physical fitness is just like that of an ordinary child, and any adult who comes over can easily subdue him.

Thinking of this, Lu Xingkuan took a deep breath.

Since becoming the leader of the Ling'an Isolation Point in Tongfu City, he has not felt this kind of powerlessness when he is crushed by force and cannot help himself.

While thinking about it, he looked at the brick in his hand, and he didn't know when he was holding it, and suddenly frowned.

This brick was removed from the "pillow" on the floor.

The moonlight was bright just now, and the moonlight outside the gate was not covered in any way, but there was a fierce knock on the door, as if it was about to smash the door and break it in the next moment.

The only weapon he found in the house was this brick.

Thinking of the knock on the door, Lu Xingkuan subconsciously sat up from the floor and looked towards the door.

The next moment, his entire body froze instantly!

The gate, which had been closed well, was being opened unguardedly, and the moonlight outside the door was mighty, shining a bleak scene.

Lu Xingkuan's scalp suddenly went numb, and he hurriedly went over to close the door.

But at this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he seemed to see something, and his head turned uncontrollably little by little.

He saw a child with a familiar silhouette, standing motionless at the head of his bed.

The other party described him as thin, and it was Ji Li.

Ji Li lowered his head slightly, his face was wide towards the road lying on the ground, the position of his eyes, there were only two black holes, the eyeballs didn't know when they were gouged out, around the eye sockets, there was coagulated blood, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and there was a strange smile on his face, staring at Lu Xingkuan.

※※※

Bang!

With a muffled sound, the game of "touching the blind" officially ended, and the atmosphere in the courtyard suddenly relaxed.

"Oh! Oh! Oh!!! ”

The children who were not caught burst into cheers.

Zhou Zhen looked at Lu Xingkuan quietly, the other party had been caught by Ji Li.

Ji Lixi ran too fast just now, and suddenly hit Lu Xingkuan, directly hitting Lu Xingkuan to the ground, and his head happened to hit a brick that had not been removed from the vegetable bed.

Now Lu Xingkuan is lying on the ground with his eyes closed, motionless, I don't know if he is unconscious? Or is it already dead?

At this time, the main entrance of the thatched hut opened, and the courtyard gate in the distance also opened, and several poorly dressed adults strode out.

These adults are men and women, all over thirty years old, no particularly young, the clothes are in line with the level of the village, but they look a little thicker than the children, and there are some dyed ribbons tied around their waists, from the point of view of dyeing technology, it is a rural soil method, the color is not bright enough, and it is not durable enough, most of them obviously begin to fade, a bit of Morandi color meaning.

Most of them looked very serious.

The middle-aged man who was hosting the game just now clapped his palms as usual, and after attracting the attention of the children, he announced loudly with a smile on his face: "Bolu has been caught!" ”

"Tomorrow Bolu will pretend to be a 'blind man'!"

"That's all for today, let's go back first!"

When the other children heard this, they all shouted and dispersed: "Bolu has been caught!" Haha, Bolu, this big fool! ”

"He's so stupid, he actually hides in the vegetable bed, like me, I didn't get caught......"

"Tomorrow Bolu will be a 'blind man', who will be good with him? Tell me how he likes to arrest people......"

"Hahaha, Bolu is really stupid...... Did you just see that? He wanted to run away after being approached by Ji Lix......"

The children chattered towards the courtyard gate, and the middle-aged man who was presiding over the game walked into the vegetable bed, reached out and picked up the brick that was wide and walked straight to the thatched house.

Zhou Zhen wanted to go over to see the situation of Lu Xingkuan and what was in the house, but at this moment, four or five adults were guarding the door of the vegetable furrow and thatched house, and he couldn't find a chance for a while.

At this moment, Uncle Dolphin and Zhong Song came over and pulled him up and walked out of the courtyard.

As he walked, he muttered, "Bo Yan, it was really dangerous just now, I thought you would be caught by Ji Li!" ”

Zhou Zhen came back to his senses and immediately asked tentatively, "What will happen if you are caught?" ”

Uncle Dolphin replied unguardedly: "If you are caught, you will have to pretend to be 'blind' the next day, and there is no hot soup to drink!" ”

Don't have soup to drink?

It can't be that simple!

If he had also drunk the soup just now, the Ji Raccoon who came out of the village chief's house might not have wandered back and forth between him and Lu Xingkuan at all, and he would have come to arrest him with a clear goal!

What should this have to do with last night's dream......

In that dream, he was targeted by that child!

So today's game of "touching the blind", the real goal of that kid has always been him!

Lu Xingkuan attracted the other party away because he drank an extra bowl of soup for him!

Just thinking about it, Zhou Zhen had been pulled out of the courtyard of the village chief's house by Uncle Dolphin and Zhong Song.

The cold wind blew in his face, cutting through his body like a knife.

Uncle Dolphin and Zhong Song drank hot soup just now, plus played another game, and now their physical condition is not bad, they don't feel cold, and they move freely.

But Zhou Zhen was so cold that his hands and feet were numb, and his movements were obviously sluggish.

He hurriedly squeezed between the two of them, and relied on the bodies of these two original owners and friends to help block out part of the cold wind, which made him feel a little better.

Zhou Zhen kept rubbing his hands, and while sighing, he then asked: "When did 'touching the blind' and drinking hot soup start?" ”

Uncle Dolphin asked puzzledly, "Why are you asking this?" Now that there is less food, it would be nice to eat some! ”

Zhong Song nodded and said, "Yes!" ”

"Bo Yan, don't think so much."

"Everyone in the village has said that this is for our good!"

Seeing that he couldn't seem to ask anything from the mouths of the two, Zhou Zhen frowned, since the uncle pulled him out just now, he felt that there were many things that were not right in this village.

Bo Qian, Zhong Song, Uncle Dolphin, Ji Raccoon ...... Bo Zhong Shuji, this way of naming, or salutation, comes from the ancient pre-Qin era, and in later generations, their use became less and less.

Judging from this, this time and space may be the pre-Qin Dynasty or the Han Dynasty.

But just now at the village chief's house, the two women who made soup brought out the utensils for holding the broth, but it was a big iron pot!

Historically, iron appeared very early, at the end of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it was born.

However, at that time, the iron ore production was very low, and the smelting methods were also very primitive, and at this time, iron tools were not accessible to ordinary people at all.

In the Han Dynasty, iron cookware came out, but the iron cookware at that time, the shape was like a kettle, the middle was concave, and the surroundings were uneven, and they were also noble supplies, and ordinary people were not qualified to ask about it at all.

The iron pot was really widely popularized among the people, and it was a matter of the Song Dynasty. [Note]

The village in front of him is obviously deserted and poor, and even the village chief lives in a thatched house, which obviously has nothing to do with the nobles.

Judging from the iron pot, it is obvious that this is not the pre-Qin and Han dynasties, but if it is the Song Dynasty, there are also many problems......

In addition, the soup at the village chief's house...... The ingredients are from the village?

Or someone from outside the village?

Why do you have to play that game of "touching the blind"?

Just thinking about it, Zhou Zhen suddenly found that there were fewer and fewer houses around, the road was getting more and more remote, and the winter mist in the air that had gradually dispersed became a little thicker, blurring the surrounding scene, and they seemed to have left the village.

Zhou Zhen immediately realized that something was wrong, and immediately asked, "Wait!" Where are we going now? ”

Uncle Dolphin and Zhong Song's expressions stiffened, and they replied in unison: "Go home!" ”

Note: From Baidu.

Ask for a commuter pass!

I'm sorry.
