The fast-traveling girl has no feelings for her

Chapter 605 The Way Back ([-])

In the barren grass under the night, it was pitch black in all directions.

The trees in the distance during the day and the railroad tracks and trains further away were all blurred in the night.

And in this dark night, the only lighted place is the three-story hut standing quietly on the ground.

The hall on the first floor of the house was filled with the aroma of hot food, and the square Eight Immortals table was crowded with people.

Several middle-aged women danced with large spoons, serving people with food and spooning vegetables at the same time, very busy.

"Come, come, don't worry, everyone has it, and after eating..."

Many people have been hungry for a long time along the way, and now they took the food and ate it with big mouthfuls.

Some young and strong men ate extremely fast, and within a short time they finished a meal like a storm.

At this time, some of them who haven't had enough to eat will come to the table again with a shy face, holding the bowl in their hands, and say to the woman in charge of cooking, "Sister, give me some more rice! "

After hearing this, the woman didn't say anything, she directly took the empty bowl in front of her, and added another bowl of rice and some vegetables to the other party.

Seeing that other people were holding their rice bowls and devoting themselves to eating the food in the bowls, Lin Shu, who was sitting in a corner not far away with Mama Lin, only took a few mouthfuls of the food in the bowls.

Lin Ma turned her head and glanced at the bowls in the hands of the people around her. In the small bowl full of food, only the green vegetable leaves on the top had been eaten a few bites, and the potatoes and rice below hadn't been touched much.

Seeing this, Mother Lin immediately put on a serious face and asked with a serious look, "Xiao Shu, why don't you eat? Is the food not delicious? Didn't Mom tell you that you can't be picky about food?"

Listening to the familiar words spoken by this familiar person, Lin Shu's face was surprisingly calm.

She actually ate a little of the rice and vegetables in the bowl.

Although the food had flavor, when she chewed it, she had the illusion that it tasted like chewing wax.

Before eating, looking at the food on the table, she didn't feel any hunger in her stomach.

When she stuffed the food into her mouth and swallowed it, there was also no feeling of fullness in her stomach.

She could feel that her ability to perceive her current body seemed to be slowly degrading or even disappearing.

However, under Lin Ma's gaze, Lin Shu still tried to grab the chopsticks in her hand, poked a handful of rice hard, and stuffed them into her mouth.

When the rice is chewed by the teeth, the starch in it should have reacted with the saliva in the tongue cavity to produce a sweet taste.

But Lin Shu chewed the meal for 24 times, but she still didn't taste any sweetness on her tongue.

At this time, she chose to put the bowls and chopsticks in her hand on the ground, then stood up and looked around at everyone who was still on the first floor of the house.

She counted all the people who were eating or talking in the total number, and the total number was only eighteen people.

You know, before eating, she counted 28 people.

Less than a meal has passed, and the total number of people in this house has suddenly decreased by ten people.

What is the reason for this?
Where have all those people who disappeared without a sound gone?

Thinking of this, Lin Shu's eyes involuntarily moved towards the old lady sitting near the door of the house.

The latter was chatting with a few old people who had eaten at the moment, and he didn't know what he was talking about.

Lin Shu tried to mobilize her keen hearing to hear what they were talking about despite the surrounding noises.

However, she soon discovered that the keen senses she was once proud of seemed to disappear all of a sudden.

No matter how much she concentrated, she couldn't hear what those people who were less than five meters away from her were saying.

This sudden change made her panic.

However, her brain went on strike for some reason, so she couldn't remember what was going on.

When Lin Shu shook her head slightly, trying to think things through, Lin Ma, who had been by her side all the time, was already approaching her.

The latter stretched out his left arm and right arm at the same time, and took the doubtful child in front of him into his arms.

"Xiaoshu, you are sleepy, you are going to sleep... sleep, sleep in mother's arms... mother will always be with you..."

This warm embrace, together with the string of voices echoing in the ears, turned into invisible hypnotic symbols, overlapping with the images in Lin Shu's deepest memory.

The overlapping of the sound in the ear and the picture made Lin Shu feel as if she was in a warm spring.

A kind of drunken warmth came over her in an instant accompanied by drowsiness, causing her to gradually close her eyes uncontrollably.

Seeing that Lin Shu's eyelids had been gently closed, Mother Lin, who was holding her, continued to comfort her in an increasingly gentle tone, "Go to sleep, go to sleep..."

At this time, the people who were still eating and chatting in the hall stopped their movements one by one.

Almost at the same time, they turned their heads to look at Mama Lin who was holding Lin Shu, with an almost dull look in their eyes.

Immediately afterwards, these people who were standing still in place disappeared one by one in the lullaby that Mama Lin hummed softly.

In the end, only the old lady who was standing alone at the door remained.

She stood up slowly, picked up a wooden crutch leaning against the door, and walked slowly towards Mama Lin.

Every time she took a step forward, the part of the house that fell behind her lost its light and fell into chaotic darkness.

As the old lady got closer and closer to the sleeping Lin Shu, most of the originally brightly lit house was now plunged into darkness.

Against the background of this boundless darkness, the place where Lin Ma, who was holding Lin Shu who was sleeping, was undoubtedly the last light source.

And this light is actually maintained by Lin Shu's only spiritual body and soul power.

When this last ray of light is wiped out, it will be the time when Lin Shu truly and completely dies.

Unknowingly, the old woman with a cane had already walked less than half a meter away from Mama Lin.

This old-looking woman looked at the spiritual body still lying in her mother's arms, sleeping like a child, and sighed meaningfully.

"The nest of comfort is also the place of eternal sleep, and the place of ultimate bliss is the time of great compassion. The enemy of the world in life is nothing more than man himself!"

Mama Lin seemed to have never heard what the old woman said.

She is still guarding the sleeping child in her arms wholeheartedly, as if she is really the biological mother of the child.

Seeing that Mama Lin didn't respond to her words, the old woman took another step forward, raised the crutch in her hand and pointed at Mama Lin's forehead. She planned to end the fantasy world in front of her by herself. .

However, her blow did not fall on the forehead of the target, but fell into the hands of another person she did not expect.

It was Lin Shu who was supposed to continue sleeping in her mother's arms until she died, but suddenly chose to open her eyes at this moment.
