Chapter 77: Strange Things About the Settlement
"So you're trapped here, too?"
Gathered around the blazing charcoal fire, Yang Xi said.
The people next to him all had a bitter look on their faces, and nodded, acknowledging his words.
Two hours ago, as a temporary driver, Yang Laogui arrived at the resettlement site safely, and was warmly interrogated by the other party as soon as he got out of the car.
Since the other party recognized the truck model that the government used to transport materials, there was no conflict in the camp, but he just asked Yang Xi vigorously, why did someone come over now?
More than 1,000 people from the resettlement site have been holding back here for more than ten days, without any external news, and they are all going crazy!
Yang Xi didn't hide it from them, and directly told them about the strange circle, and specially pointed out his identity as an off-site aid.
When the other party heard this, his face immediately changed, and he hurriedly welcomed Yang Xi into the house, and also told him about the strange things that happened in the settlement site during this time.
Speaking of which, they discovered the "strange circle" earlier than the outside.
"During that time, a group of people were sick, and we thought about sending them out for treatment, after all, although there were doctors and temporary medical clinics in the resettlement sites, the medical conditions were still too low. ”
The man who spoke dug out a roasted sweet potato from the fire and ate it, "But not long after we left, we felt that something was wrong with our bodies, our hearts were racing, and our brains were gradually confused......
"At first, I just thought it was motion sickness or a cold, and I didn't pay much attention to it, but then we drove around and around, and we actually returned to the starting point!"
"We are familiar with the road we come and go, and we won't have an accident with our eyes closed, but it's ......"
The man's face showed a little fear, obviously having a psychological shadow about the experience, "Later, we didn't give up, and we called people to try several times, but no matter how we went, we would return to the resettlement site...... It's like meeting a ghost hitting a wall!"
"In addition to being flustered and not being able to get out, do you have any other symptoms?" Yang Xi thought about it, and told them how he felt when he first entered the strange circle and the news from other aspects.
"Not really, we haven't heard anything weird. Said the people at the settlement.
"As for the strange birds you mentioned, we've only met them once. ”
The man sighed heavily, and said sadly, "That was four days ago. ”
"We didn't tell the news after we found out that we couldn't get out of here, and most of the people who were here were dug out of the rubble, so we couldn't irritate them anymore. And the supplies are quite sufficient, and there is no problem for the top time......"
"But four days ago, when I was inspecting and distributing supplies, two huge eagle owls suddenly flew down from the sky and wanted to snatch food!"
"We couldn't hurt them no matter how we beat them, and more than a dozen people died...... Fortunately, in the end, they flew away on their own and did not take the supplies with them. ”
It's just that they were so troubled by the giant bird, they couldn't hide the problem, and everyone who knew the truth instantly fell into a state of chaos, only to feel that they had just escaped the avalanche and encountered a monster again, and there might not be anyone outside to save them......
And there are so many supplies, and the wind and snow have besieged people in the resettlement site, making it clear that they want to sit and eat empty!
So before Yang Xi arrived, the resettlement site had just suppressed a chaos, and most of the people were forcibly arranged to nest in their own houses, and were not allowed to come out, except for some sergeants patrolling outside.
"Another man died this morning, the family in front of him is gone, and he also broke a leg, he was originally going to be sent outside for treatment, but this happened...... He committed suicide. ”
"And the aunt in house 109, who came to me to sprinkle it, saying that we were uneasy and kind, and wanted to drag them here to death. The petty non-commissioned officers at the resettlement site complained one after another, and the fragrant sweet potatoes couldn't stop their mouths, "What are you kidding? We dug them out of the pit and tried to drag them to death...... It's all boring?!"
Yang Xi listened to their whining words on the side, but he was deep in thought.
"Why don't you wait until you're full, go out with me?" ”
If there is really a ghost hitting the wall, he, a monk, can be regarded as a useful person - as a person who has learned the thunder method, he can make the so-called yin evil kneel down and shout for mercy with one palm.
"It's done!"
The people sent by the government to the resettlement site were enthusiastic and unambiguous, directly patted their thighs, threw the sweet potato peels in their hands, and a little soldier said to Yang Xi: "Don't wait, I'll go with you now!"
"I'm in charge of driving, and last time it was the first time I encountered it, familiar!"
So without much to say, I found a middle-aged and stable big brother to sit in town, and the three of them partnered to drive a small truck and hit the road bumpily.
Yang Xi sat in the passenger seat, Xiao Young held the steering wheel, stared at the front with his eyes, and kept reporting his driving situation to Yang Xi.
"Just drive at this pace for five minutes and make a right turn......"
And Old Ghost Yang also observed all the way according to his words, wanting to see where they met the "ghost hitting the wall".
"Right here! Turn a little left!"
Xiao Young said, but his subordinates held the steering wheel, and turned around fiercely for a circle and a half, and the car immediately broke away from its original route and began to turn around.
"Isn't it a ghost, but the confusing effect of those chaotic aura?"
Yang Xi stretched out his head and looked outside, but he didn't notice any vanity in front of him, and then broke the heads of the other two people to take a look......
Xiao Young didn't realize that his head had been moved, his eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of fog, and his mouth was still muttering about how to drive next.
Big Brother is exactly the same situation, even if Yang Xi chokes them, the two of them still maintain the state of driving, and they don't feel the outside world at all.
"My brain is blindfolded. ”
"Wake me up!"
Yang Xi raised his hand and snapped his fingers, which fell into the ears of the two ignorant people like thunder, and shook violently, his hands and feet collapsed on the seat, and his whole body was oozing sweat.
"What's going on?!"
The two of them touched their hearts, feeling that there was a piece of emptiness inside, their bodies were weak, and their strength seemed to be drained.
"Hey, why did the car come here?" the two of them exclaimed, as they glanced outside.
"You guys are bluffed!" Yang Xi yawned and told them what they looked like just now, and the two of them broke out in a cold sweat.
"Thank you, thank you!"
"The Taoist is really capable!"
"Don't blow it! I'm panicking when I hear it!" Old Ghost Yang made people brag about it, just smiled and interrupted their nonsense, "Keep driving, see if there will be an accident now!"
"Hey!"
Xiao Young took a deep breath, calmed his beating heart, turned the car back to the right road, and drove all the way.
This time it was smooth sailing, there were no accidents, even those palpitations disappeared without a trace, and the three of them arrived at the exit of the strange circle smoothly.
"Daoist Yang, why are you ......?"
The sergeant guarding the intersection opened his mouth wide in surprise when he saw Yang Xi jumping out of the car.
When he saw the other two people coming down, he was even more stunned.
"Just two?"
There are 1,000 people in the resettlement site, why can they only be rescued so much at one time?
"Come out and test the water, it's not like I won't go back!"
Waving his hand to let people follow him out of the circle, Yang Xi said to the sergeant.
However, no one expected that the next second that Xiao Young and Big Brother stepped out of the strange circle, their legs were weak, and they fell directly to the ground, covering their hearts and turning pale.
"No, no!"
The two of them gasped and told Yang Xi, "Dao Chief, I'm very distressed......"
"I gotta, I gotta go back!"
Without saying a word, the two struggled to get up and ran back into the circle, and the pain on their faces eased a little.
