Humanoid Machines [Unlimited] Section 260
Chapter 269: Gold and Silver Village 48
Even if Lao Li doesn't "invite" them, they won't be absent from this festival.
But right now, Lao Li is still entertaining relatives and friends, and the players are not idle to watch the heartbroken show he played, and it is a good show for a white-haired person to send a black-haired person. Even the comforting words of the villagers next to them, because they knew the other side of it, became extremely ironic at this time.
The news was also clear, and the players did not hesitate much, and left Lao Li's house in advance.
The villagers came and went, and they didn't care about a few outsiders leaving the table.
It's just that when Yuan Xuxue and the others came out, they happened to bump into the fat man standing not far from the door, with a concealed appearance, poking his head out, and just collided with them head-on.
The fat man was slightly stunned, and subconsciously hid to the side, and was caught in a suit.
"Hey."
The suit looks really not in a good mood now, but when he faces the fat man, he actually looks peaceful, and squints at him with a little smile, "What do you see us running?"
The layer of flesh on the fat man's face seemed to tremble slightly, and he glanced at them in the suit extremely carefully, "No, I didn't run."
He reluctantly maintained a smile, "I just saw you come to comfort Lao Li, I think about it, I also want to send a small gift to comfort and relieve me." As he spoke, he seemed to be anxious, and looked at Lao Li's house, looking at the appearance that it did not seem to cause a riot. Still a little uneasy, he asked, "You didn't do it, did you?" β
The suit was a little speechless, although they were indeed unhappy to see Lao Li, but they were not arrogant enough to do it directly in his home.
didn't bother to argue with the fat man, he waved his hand slightly to indicate that there was no, and the fat man saw this hand-waving appearance, as if he was relieved and said, "That's good, that's good." β
He asked again, "I have some things in the afternoon, I want to help Lao Li a little, do you still need me to help guide the guide?" β
Today's plan for the players is very clear, they are going to investigate the fat man's breeding pond in the afternoon. But when asked this question for a while, even a young man like Ah Window who did not hide his thoughts did not reveal any strange expression.
Xiao Gao took the initiative to speak, and said with some disgust, "I don't need you to lead the way, let's just go and see the fields at the edge of the village and see the scenery, I will be suffocated by your staring." β
The fat man smiled flatteringly, "The bosses have worked hard." β
Instead of continuing to entangle with the players, he seemed to be in a hurry to visit and make sure, and trotted directly into the house.
As the guide who mainly led them into the village, it seems that the fat man does need to take some responsibility for some of their actions, and it is not uncommon for them to be more concerned or afraid that they will cause trouble.
It's just that when he trotted over, Yuan Yuxue's eyes raised slightly and looked at him.
His gaze narrowed slightly, and the afterglow of his gaze fell on the fat man's back, and it was not until his figure disappeared into the house that he withdrew his gaze.
His expression was still cold and bland.
β¦β¦
The excuse used by the fat man was of course not their main plan, and their task this afternoon was to go to the breeding pond where the fat man had taken them to see what was going on.
The mobile phones of the three of them in suits, because they were flooded by the river before, the black screen is broken and cannot be used.
However, Yuan Yuxue's mobile phone is still strong - it has something to do with the fact that he didn't go into the water much.
In the dungeon, the absence of communication tools still has a slight impact, especially the environment they are in now, and it is not easy to go directly to a new mobile phone.
Yuan Yuxue took the broken mobile phones of several other people and took a look.
It's not hard to fix.
He took it apart and, in what seem, put it back on in what seemed like a few minutes.
Yuan Yuxue doesn't rely much on tools, after all, he is the best tool himself, and he is even more handy at repairing this kind of mechanical supplies with a low level of technology.
It's just that a few of them in suits got their phones back with confused faces, and when they turned it on and found that it could still be used, they couldn't help but have a slightly puzzled "huh".
"You're pretty good, it seems that you have a side hustle, and you won't starve to death if you get a copy in the future, and you can live alone."
The suit was extremely poor, and when he found that the phone was new, he had to say this, and he was glared at by them.
Yuan Yuxue looked at the suit, but she liked the way the other party "complimented" him.
It's a good thing that a person can survive.
He nodded earnestly, but instead shut up the suit with a little embarrassment.
After solving the problem of communication tools, several people did not delay any longer and went directly to the fat man's breeding pond.
The flowers that had bloomed on the pond that I had seen before were almost thankful at this time, and only a few small buds were left that were about to bloom and fail.
None of them paid much attention to it before, but the fat man took a quick look at it when he introduced it.
Now, when I came to see this pond, I noticed something unusual...... For example, the water surface is too calm, there is no sign of fish swimming, and if you engage in breeding, you must at least have an economic effect, what kind of fry is the fat man breeding?
They didn't avoid people much along the way.
It's just that there have always been few people in the village, and those villagers seem to be a little afraid of life and xenophobia. Looking at them, foreigners, even if they will stop and look twice, after they find out, they will hurriedly walk away.
It's just that when they stay near the breeding pond, they find that people pass by from time to time, and they seem to be looking at each other.
Either the children of the village, or the women who are moving, or some old people walking around the village.
It's just that the breeding pond here, just like the players thought before, the scenery is mediocre, and there is nothing to do laundry or play, why do these people love this way so much?
Not only Yuan Xuxue, but also everyone else also discovered these abnormalities.
On the one hand, I felt that I was faintly watched, and on the other hand, I felt even more vigilant when I looked at this seemingly calm pool.
But at least on the surface, it's a normal pond.
Under the surveillance of other people, they were even stretched thin to get closer, on the one hand, they were afraid of startling the snake and being discovered by the fat man.
The pace froze in place.
Yuan Yuxue just raised her eyes faintly, and after looking at the lake that was blown out by the wind, her eyes swept slightly over the villagers staring at her, and she used her mobile phone to send messages to others.
"Come back in the evening."
Not only do they not go out at night, but the villagers (at least under normal circumstances) do not go out.
As for the fat man and the taboo they mentioned...... In the case of already violating so much, this one is not bad.
When the others received the text message, they didn't show any clues. It's all silent approval.
The suit also pretended to go to the side of the breeding pond, and it was enough for a flower that had just been released, and it was casually held on the fingertips.
He felt that as he approached the pond, the villagers' eyes were no longer secretly injected. It was like a sharp arrow coming at him, trying to pierce him. The suit then took the picked flowers away as if nothing had happened, and left the confines of the breeding pond, and the people turned their heads away again, and looked elsewhere.
There's something strange in this lake.
The suit thought.
When he returned to the team, he handed the flower to Yuan Yuxue.
Yuan Yuxue: "? β
He tilted his head slightly,
There are some who don't understand the meaning of the suit.
The other players also looked over in surprise, and when they looked at the suit again, they all had a bit of a strange emotion in their eyes.
The suit also reacted, feeling as if his brain was on the wrong line for a while, and he didn't know how to make such a move.
With some embarrassment, he withdrew the bud and threw it into the lake at random.
"Don't forget it." β
However, this was only a small episode, and after confirming that the other villagers had unexpectedly concerned about the pond, they did not come closer.
Just pretending to be going to collect information today, after a short gathering here, they separated and went to all parts of the village, which is very much in line with what they say about fat people today.
"Come and see the scenery", or everyone knows that they come to investigate the information.
The harvest of this afternoon was not great, but the information they obtained from the festival was worth it. In the evening, everyone returned to the villa, and the aunt who originally cooked showed up today, and she continued to cook dinner, and the meal with thick oil and red sauce was more appetizing than before.
Frankly, it's good in terms of taste. It's just that the players know that the aunt who cooked the tofu rice and cooked some "fish" by herself, even if she didn't seem to remember the events of the night at all at this time, in the hearts of the players, there was still a slight response.
It's just that this doesn't seem to have any effect on Yuan Yuxue.
He ate as earnestly as ever, and only his cheeks twitched slightly when he ate.
Probably such a serious enjoyment of the appearance actually aroused some of their appetite. It's just that I was entangled in my heart for a while, and then I continued to eat.
What if you don't like it, you can't eat nothing and starve to death here.
What's more, it's best for them not to show more abnormalities in front of the fat man.
After dinner, the fat man went to bed early, and the players, as usual, returned to their rooms early to prepare for a "rest".
It's just that they all know in their hearts that today's itinerary will be sleepless nights.
The sky in Jinyin Village has always been dark early, but it is just over nine o'clock, and it is already as rich as the night. The villagers in the village closed their doors, and they could not hear the insects and birds, and there was silence.
After another hour, just after ten o'clock, the players got up early and went out as previously agreed.
This time, I didn't continue to keep people in the villa to contact, except for Ah Zuo, who was in a special situation, and even Ah Dao, who had never been very gregarious, seemed to feel that this was a discovery worth paying attention to, so he acted with them.
When they were about to go out, Xiao Qi suddenly made a ghost, and remembered the fat man's warning to them before.
"Don't go out after eight o'clock in the middle of the night."
"I'm afraid that I can't see the road clearly, and I'll drown by the river."
It can be said that among the taboos mentioned by the fat man, in addition to not going out in the middle of the night, there is also a more important point, that is, not to approach the water source - but today their purpose is to see clearly what secrets are hidden in the breeding pond.
After comforting his Xiao Qi, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief and pushed the door out with Xiao Gao.
Outside the door of the hallway, several of them in suits were already waiting for them.
Chapter 270: Gold and Silver Village 49
After seeing the figure of her companion, she felt a little more comforted in her heart.
They met silently in the hallway, and then began to descend the stairsβ
Yuan Yuxue lives alone on the second floor. At this time, he pushed open the door of his room, and the wooden door was gently shut, and he leaned against the door.
The light from the skylight in the corridor scattered, reflecting his complexion covered with a layer of silver satin, almost transparent whiteness.
If you don't think about what they're going to do next, it's a beautiful scene.
