Chapter 116: The Graveyard
The people who built this wooden house were very skillful, and it looked like a dilapidated house that could collapse at any time.
But I still made two layers.
Li Shu followed Xi Yu's instructions and looked up, but only saw a figure that hurriedly dodged.
"Is it my sister?"
"No," Xi Yu denied, "Sister is there." ”
Xi Yu pointed to a flat road not far away.
Li Shu looked straight.
It was a cemetery.
The tombstones are densely erected in them, and a single look can make people's scalp tingle.
"Let's take a look?"
Qin He and the others had had enough, so they came over with their Shang Fang sword, changed the script again, and walked in front of them like knights holding a branch to open the way.
The cemetery is not far from the house.
It didn't take long for the four of them to reach their destination.
It's obviously a mountainside, but such a place has been reclaimed.
The crows "quacked" in the branches and cheered for everyone.
The tombstones are arranged irregularly and are erected in a haphazard manner.
Xi Yu walked through it with considerable effort, looking at the words on the tombstone.
"Why are they all little girls?"
Li Shu followed behind and exclaimed.
There are no photographs on the tombstones, only names and ages engraved so that people can identify who is buried here.
But even if it is so concise, the person who engraves the word is impatient, and the engraving is crooked, and if you don't carefully identify it, you can't even see what is written.
It's not just the font, it's all scribbled.
Whether it's a tombstone that looks like a big stone picked up from anywhere, or a name that looks like a casual name.
Xi Yu looked at it from a distance.
Small flowers, small grasses, small trees, small clouds.
The tombstones are full of such names, and there is not even a surname.
They are all six or seven years old.
If you live, you think it's as big as a worm.
Thinking about it, Xi Yu stood still in front of a pit that had been dug in advance.
There is also a small tombstone lying next to the pit, which is engraved:
Bug, seven years old.
"What are you looking at? Come over here. ”
Li Shu's voice was amazed, as if he had discovered something extraordinary.
Xi Yu answered, raised his foot and kicked the tombstone engraved with the name of "Little Worm" off the cliff and leaned over.
It was the only tombstone with a photo on it.
The words are also carved very upright, and at a glance, you can see that the person who carved the words has spent a lot of effort.
Fluttershy, 10 years old.
"This must be the worm's sister."
Li Shu guessed:
"Looking at the eyebrows and eyes, they look very similar to the insects."
"It should be."
Xi Yu's voice was a little deep, and she called to tour guide 04 in her mind:
"Do you sell chrysanthemums in the system?"
"Of course there is!"
A handful of chrysanthemums suddenly appeared in Xi Yu's hand, and then she scattered them in front of each simple tombstone.
"I didn't expect you to be such an emotional person."
Gu Qiao smiled, stepped forward to take the flower from Xi Yu's hand and helped spread it out.
"They're just one of the characters in the weird story."
"You're not right."
Xi Yu denied: "They are the same people as me. ”
After doing everything, Xi Yu turned around and was about to leave, but saw a red figure under the big tree not far away.
The girl's big eyes looked timidly at this side, looking like she wanted to get close but didn't dare to.
"If you see her in a red dress, don't accede to any of her requests."
The rules flashed in Xi Yu's mind, and when she reacted again, Xi Yu had already walked in front of her.
"What are you doing here? Don't go and see? ”
“…… I love those flowers. ”
The worm said, with yearning in his voice.
Xi Yu poured cold water on her:
"It's not for you."
"I know." She was a little anxious, waving her hands constantly, and finally hid behind her:
"I'll just take a look, just take a look."
The red dress is bright and cute, and there are a few strawberries embroidered on it.
This made the bruises on her body more and more obvious.
"Why are you here?" Xi Yu asked.
"This is my home," the worm said with a slight stumble.
"Still, thank you for playing with me, I'm very happy."
"They beat you, why don't you run?"
“……”
The worm's eyes were full of doubt:
"Because this is my home, I can't leave, I can only be here."
"It's stupid."
Xi Yu didn't ask any more, turned around and walked towards the wooden house.
Before entering the door, through the lush trees and the mist in the mountains, Xi Yu looked at the cemetery from afar.
The little insect in red was lying on the ground, holding something and carving it hard against a large stone.
Around her were countless blue ghosts holding white flowers.
"You're going to the cemetery."
As soon as the four of them entered the room, they confronted the man sitting in the dining room.
"Nope."
Men will only show up after they have eaten.
Thinking about the rules that the woman said, Xi Yu's expression was a little gloomy.
"You're lying."
The man smiled, still holding the blood-stained scythe in his hand.
"You're not an honest guest."
"You're not an honest master either."
The long knife was held in Xi Yu's hand, preparing for a possible battle.
But the man just smiled.
He rehung the scythe back on the wall, dragging his massive body back to the room at the end of the hallway.
in the room.
Qin He collapsed on the bed and sighed:
"Could the clue be upstairs?"
Thinking of the figure he saw earlier, Li Shu nodded:
"I agree, but the woman didn't mention the rules upstairs."
"What's the situation with the little girl?"
Compared with Qin He and the others, Gu Qiao was obviously more interested in the little worm.
"What were you guys talking about?"
"Nothing, just gossip."
Xi Yu prevaricated.
"Really?" Gu Qiao was a little skeptical: "What do you think of her?" ”
"This is the world forged by her obsession."
Xi Yu concluded: "But she is the weakest one. ”
"So, we can't get out?"
Gu Qiao said dejected words, but he was very relaxed and lay on the bed.
"Wait for the evening."
“……”
At dinner time, everyone returned to the familiar table and watched as Worm placed the cauldron on the other side of the table.
It's still tomato brisket.
With the lesson from last time, this time, everyone eats all the food.
"Did anyone find any clues?"
A boy in a blue striped shirt was the first to speak.
Most of the people were silent, only a girl with a neat high ponytail raised her hand and said:
"I found a staircase, and the house has two floors."
The attention of the crowd was instantly grabbed.
"I didn't find any clues in the room, it looks like we have to go to the second floor, does anyone want to be together?"
Blue Stripe clearly puts itself in the position of leader.
Seeing that no one spoke, he was a little annoyed:
"If we continue to wait, none of us will be able to leave, we will all have to die here!"
They are all people who have entered into strange talks, and Bluestripe's words are not unreasonable.
"And when are we going?"
Qin He wanted to go to the second floor, but now he was busy confirming the time.
"Wait for that man to come out, his meal time is about half an hour, that is, it ends at seven o'clock, let's get ready, and gather here at half past seven on time."
