Hu Guicheng glanced at the well that was about to dry up, then looked up at the cloudy sky, and scolded hatefully: "I don't know how long this ghost weather will last, there are a lot of thunder and lightning, but there is no rain, and if it goes on like this, this year's harvest will be delayed." ” After scolding, he sat down on the edge of the well, took out a handful of melon seeds from his trouser pocket, and spit the shell to the ground as he knocked it.
The dark clouds gathered denser and denser, and the pressure became lower and lower, as if they were all driven by the wind into the remote mansion of the Hu family.
Hu Guicheng smelled a strong fishy smell, he raised his head in a little confusion, only to find that the gray-black cloud had pressed on the top of his head at some point, and it seemed that he could reach out and touch it.
The lightning was shuttling and cruising in the clouds, and from time to time there was a "bang", like a sharp axe, the black clouds were split into a silver gap, so shocked that Hu Chenggui even fell to the ground with melon seeds, and his mouth could not be closed for a long time.
Suddenly, there were a few "poofs" behind him, as if something had fallen into the well, Hu Chenggui was excited, turned his head sharply, and squinted at the bottom of the well.
The water below the well is only a foot high, and it will cover the bottom of the well, and the water is shaking back and forth, obviously something has just fallen into it, but the well water is full of mud and sand, and the sky is already overcast like the middle of the night, so Hu Guicheng can't see what has fallen into it at all.
"It's not like a bird is in the water, it's really a bad eye to attract flies, and it's unlucky."
He suddenly thought of this layer, scolded fiercely in his mouth, but felt a little more relaxed in his heart, stood up and patted his pants to go back to the house.
But as soon as he took a few steps, he suddenly heard a "swish" sound coming from the well, as if something was climbing up along the wall of the well, and the sound became louder and louder, and it sounded as if it had reached the edge of the wellhead.
Hu Guicheng turned his head again, but this time, he turned very slowly, his neck seemed to freeze, and it took a lot of effort to move every time.
Even so, he didn't dare to move halfway through, and his two eyeballs slanted to the corners of his eyes, and he looked at the edge of the well that was overwhelmed with weeds.
There were two more small ginger hands on the edge of the well, about the size of a baby's hand, and they clung to the edge of the well, their nails digging deep into the cracks in the stone.
Hu Guicheng's head was empty at first, and after a dazzling lightning bolt swept over his head, he suddenly thought of what the girl surnamed Jiang said: "Huang and Hong were both killed by the mud man, and now the veteran of Liaoyang County, you are the only one left, and the next target of the mud man is you." ” Thinking of this, Hu Guicheng's heart suddenly contracted so tightly that he could barely breathe, but when he saw the body of the clay man who climbed up, his heart suddenly swelled again, and the big one almost wanted to explode his chest.
Fortunately, his body still remembers the agility he had trained on the battlefield back then, and even though his mind was blank, his hands and feet were still flexible.
He ran into the house without saying a word, and his straw sandals trampled the dry earth with a "crackle".
However, before he had run a few steps, his left shoulder suddenly sank, and then, a stinky little hand brushed his face full of vicissitudes, touched it all the way to his mouth, and when he was stunned, it plunged into his mouth.
Hu Guicheng fell to the ground, his body rolling and twisting on the ground, bringing up a puff of dust.
His eyes were finally unwilling to close, but the brilliance of life passed little by little from the bloodshot eyes, and at the last moment, he saw two doors that were slowly being pushed open, and the familiar figure inside the door.
His eyes widened, his eyeballs bulged out, and he raised a finger slightly, pointing at the short and fat body, and finally, he couldn't move.
When Cheng Muyou and his entourage rode their horses to the outside of Liaoyang City, the sky was as dark as night, and the dark clouds were pressing down like a market, forcing the emotions of both people and horses to the edge of tension and madness.
Cheng Muyou looked at the small border city in front of him under the pressure of black clouds, and once again remembered Shi Jin's words in his mind.
"Shi Fei and I walked into the Yin Soldier Trough and found that the most terrifying thing inside was not the army of undead, but the clay man, which slid down from the dark clouds and stuck to my back, and the smell was abnormal."
"If it weren't for Shi Fei's timely reaction, I'm afraid it wouldn't be the horse that was suffocated by that clay figure, but me."
"Shi Fei and I rode the Lingxi back, those dark clouds seemed to be alive, followed after the two of us, chased after us, ran halfway up the mountain, Lingxi was frightened, shook us off the horse, fortunately, Shi Fei found that there was a stone crack next to it, which seemed to be a cave where he could hide, so he pushed the stone away and walked into the cave with me."
"But the clouds chased the spirit rhino halfway through, and then turned back, and squeezed into the narrow hole, and pounced on us brothers, like a hungry beast, and would not let go of its mouth until it bitten anyone."
"The two of us ran forward as hard as we could, but before we could reach the other end of the cave, a few more clay figurines fell from the dark clouds, pushing us into a corner."
"Dark clouds continue to pour out from the mouth of the cave, under the body is a cliff several feet high, in front of those fierce clay figures, our brothers can only fight to the death, after killing a few, it is really powerless to resist, one after another fell off the high cliff" "I thought I was going to be crushed, but when I fell halfway, I was stopped by a dark cloud, so I didn't fall straight down.
My lord, those cloud evil sects are very, the clay people are hiding in the clouds, they are the ones who sent the clay people here, when Shi Fei and I fell into it, I felt that it was not water vapor, but like it was filled with cotton wool, so I didn't fall to death under the high cliff, but Shi Fei's leg was broken, we couldn't climb up at all, for fear of being discovered by the mud man, I dragged him into the woods next to him, and lived on some wild things every day, if it wasn't for the sudden appearance of the adults today, it is estimated that our brothers would not be able to survive for a few days."
"My lord, look, the clouds seem to be coming again, rushing to Liaoyang, is there someone who is going to die at the hands of the clay man."
Above the city gate, the two big characters "Liaoyang" were almost invisible under the shroud of darkness, Cheng Muyou raised his head, the anger in his heart burned more and more, and in the end, it turned into an extremely cold smile, overflowing from the corner of his mouth.
It turns out that the clay figures are not made of the dirt in the Yin Soldier Trough at all, they are brought here by the iron-like clouds above their heads, harming people's lives and taking their lives.
It turns out that she has been played with by him all along, Qiao Yun is just a manipulated puppet, if she guesses correctly, there should also be a red thread in her body, with this red thread, what he asks her to do, she can only do it, and she can't disobey at all.
And the box of red threads in her room was deliberately placed there because he wanted him to see it.
No wonder, no wonder things will go so smoothly later, in fact, all of this is not because of their own plans seamless, but because someone deliberately facilitated it.
