"Dad, Ali" The woman looked at the two lying on the ground at a loss, anger and sadness surged up together, and she cried loudly to the sky, and soon fainted.And Xiao Jianchen and the four of them looked at this sudden scene in amazement, and they didn't have time to react at all."
How could this be" Wu Huazhen didn't know what had just happened, at this moment she saw a corpse lying on the ground and two people who had fainted, she was even more overwhelmed, she trembled with fright, her face was pale, she stared at Ali's corpse, her eyes were stiff, and it only took a while, a living person was lying on the ground covered in blood and cold, would she become like this after her death The more Wu Huazhen thought about it, the more frightened she became, she would rather be killed by someone with a knife than suffer all kinds of pain and die, but, The most important thing is that she doesn't want to die at all, "I don't want to die, I don't want to die," Wu Huazhen said as he retreated, his eyes full of fear.Xiao Jianchen grabbed Wu Huazhen's arm: "You calm down, we don't want to die, since we don't want to die, then strive to live, and the premise of living is not to mess up your own position, do you understand" Wu Huazhen stared at Xiao Jianchen's eyes in horror, and after half a sound, he seemed to understand Xiao Jianchen's words, nodded in a panic, but tears fell in a flutter."
It's good to understand, let's deal with the old man's affairs first, after all, Ali died because of our arrival."
Xiao Jianchen's heart was full of guilt.Xiao Jianchen and An Boyuan carried the old man and the woman into their own rooms respectively, but they didn't dare to bury Ali's body privately, after all, they were just outsiders, and everything had to wait for the old man to wake up before they could decide.The four of them sat in the hall, Zhou Mengqi kept her head down and bit her lip tightly, as if she had something to say, the atmosphere became more and more depressing, she finally couldn't help but ask: "What is the witch mentioned in the old man's mouth, is it like the kind of witch who can use vicious spells as mentioned in the movie or in the novel" "I don't know, but the witch who can spell will only appear in movies or novels, the witch in reality, I think it is probably a witch who can be poisoned" Xiao Jianchen usually likes to read novels, although he has not seen what Gu is, But the more you watch, the more you know."
That's right" The old man's voice suddenly sounded, and the four of them turned their heads to see the old man standing at the door of his room, looking at them fiercely: "Now I'm sure you are not sent by a witch, but I still don't welcome you here, after all, you brought death to my son." ”The old man's voice was very weak, but it was very imposing, giving people a strong sense of oppression, Xiao Jianchen always felt that he was not an ordinary person, but he really couldn't think of anything unusual about him.Xiao Jianchen stood up and said respectfully: "Uncle, we are full of apologies for your son's death, but it is true that it was not our doing, and we must also stay." ”The old man stared at Xiao Jianchen's eyes, and after a long time, he seemed to be moved by the sincerity in his eyes, and said slowly: "Okay, you can stay, but no matter what happens to you here, we will not be responsible." ”"You can rest assured of that."
Xiao Jianchen breathed a sigh of relief, although it is not necessarily safe here, but it is much better than living in the woods, there is no day and night here, every day is evening, and living in the house can give a little comfort to the heart.Wu Huazhen suddenly stood up and bowed deeply to the old man: "Thank you, grandpa, for taking us in." ”An Boyuan was disdainful, he cared more about whether he could live, although sleeping in bed was much more comfortable than on the ground, but in this place where ghosts could appear at any time, no matter where he slept, he could not be at ease."
You can eat with us, but you can't leave your room except during meal time."
The old man continued."
Why are you restricting our personal freedom," An Boyuan was suddenly enraged."
This is my home, you can leave if you're not satisfied."
The old man glared at An Boyuan angrily.Xiao Jianchen pulled An Boyuan hard to prevent him from being rough because of anger: "Don't worry, we will abide by your rules" After returning to their own room, An Boyuan looked at Xiao Jianchen angrily: "Why the hell are you making decisions for me, I can leave if I want to, do you still have to listen to your command" "An Boyuan, can you not be so naïve Xiao Jianchen is also for our good, do you understand" Zhou Mengqi couldn't stand it anymore."
I don't need him to make decisions," An Boyuan blushed angrily and his neck was thick."
If you want to go, we won't stop you."
Xiao Jianchen was calm on the surface, but in his heart, he was more afraid of death than anyone else.An Boyuan suddenly looked like a deflated ball, he sat on the bed dejectedly, in fact, he still had to admire Xiao Jianchen, but the reason why he was angry with Xiao Jianchen was because of jealousy, Xiao Jianchen was not only his own junior, but also only performed a mission, and his mental quality was much better than his own, originally he thought that he would be the leader of this team, but he didn't expect Wu Huazhen and Zhou Mengqi to listen to him more, although he spoke very little, but what he did had to be admired, and he was not afraid of danger, There is still a bit of a gap between An Boyuan and Xiao Jianchen, this junior younger than himself makes him very faceless.Xiao Jianchen looked at An Boyuan, and then said to Zhou Mengqi and Wu Huazhen: "We can't everyone sleep, we need someone to stand guard, shout immediately when there is a situation, otherwise everyone will fall asleep, and we don't know when we will be killed." ”"That's right, we take turns standing guard."
Zhou Mengqi was the first to agree to Xiao Jianchen's proposal."
I have no opinion" An Boyuan did not raise any objections for the first time.Wu Huazhen also nodded and said, "I don't have an opinion." ”"Okay, then we'll stand guard and we'll rest."
Xiao Jianchen's gaze swept over everyone's faces, in this world where life and death are not controlled by themselves, they can only fight ghosts by working together, even if there is no hope, they must create hope.The four of them simply ate something, and Wu Huazhen always looked very frightened, glancing at the window from time to time, she was worried every minute that another face would suddenly appear there."
Have you ever wondered where these tasks came from," Xiao Jianchen said, taking a bite of bread."
It's simply something that can't be solved, how can we possibly think about it."
An Boyuan had a nonchalant expression."
No, it's certainly not unsolvable, if we can find out where these missions came about, and who is the person who issued them to us, maybe we'll be able to get out and never have to do these damn missions again."
Xiao Jianchen squinted his eyes and said seriously."
Who is the person who posted the task, are you kidding, do you think that is what people can do, it's completely," An Boyuan stood up, walked to the side of the bed and lay down."
Can't you listen to Xiao Jianchen, unlike you, if you don't use your brain all day long, you know that losing your temper is useless."
Zhou Mengqi said disdainfully.An Boyuan didn't refute, just turned his head and "cut"."
Xiao Jianchen, what do you think, just say" Xiao Jianchen nodded: "I don't think these tasks will definitely appear out of thin air, there must be a source, and finding the source may be able to remove all these terrifying things, so that we don't have to do tasks." ”Zhou Mengqi nodded: "That's right, but how do you want to find out who the person hiding in the small black room is" She said here and paused for a moment, and then continued: "I don't think there are people in the small black room at all." ”"Even if he wasn't a human, he was once a human, and if you can find out what happened when he was a human being, maybe it can be solved."
Although Xiao Jianchen said that it was reasonable, they had no way to find it out, and they didn't know anything about the inhuman thing hiding in the small black room, and they didn't know where to start at all.Xiao Jianchen looked at their depressed looks, and also felt that this matter was not the right time to say now, so he said: "Let's talk about this later, now find a way to find a leave slip and leave here, by the way, what is that leave slip for" Zhou Mengqi sighed and said: "If there is a leave slip, it is equivalent to getting a gold medal for avoiding death." ”"Death-free gold medal" "It takes four years for us to study in this school, and we must do a total of ten tasks in these four years, if we haven't done it ten times after four years, then we have to study again for four years, and all the tasks we did before are cleared, you know this" Xiao Jianchen nodded and took a deep breath: "That's right, I know" "Well, and this leave slip can be used to not do this task when you receive the task, even if it is a death-free gold medal that has directly passed the task, do you understand what I said" Zhou Mengqi's gaze swept back and forth on Xiao Jianchen and Wu Huazhen's faces.Xiao Jianchen nodded, while Wu Huazhen shook his head, Xiao Jianchen explained: "For example, you received this mission, but you don't want to come, and you have a leave slip in your hand, then you can use the leave slip not to come, but you have done this mission." ”This time Wu Huazhen understood, she seemed to see the light of hope: "Great, doesn't that mean that if we have ten leave slips, then don't we just don't have to do the task" "That's right, but how to get the leave slip, have you ever thought about it" Xiao Jianchen stared at Wu Huazhen and said, he thought a little more than Wu Huazhen, "Senior sister, whoever finds this leave slip will belong to whomever you find" "No, after you find the leave slip, it's not yours, only if you sign your name on it yourself, then it's yours, If you are snatched away before you sign your name to sign someone else's name, it's someone else's. ”:
