Walking back slowly, at around three o'clock in the afternoon, it started to rain.

The rainfall is moderate, just enough to irrigate the seedlings in the fields.

But when Xue Yuke looked up, the sky was still blue, with not a single cloud above his head.

The villagers are also a little abnormal.

Normal people should hide indoors when it rains, but these villagers ran outside in a panic, and they all looked around in the open space.

It was as if there was some wild beast in the house when it rained, which made them uneasy.

But Xue Yuke had observed that there was nothing in the room.

Perhaps, something terrible happened in the house when it rained in the village, so the villagers were so nervous.

It wasn't until the rain gradually subsided and stopped that the soaked villagers returned home and changed out of their soaked clothes.

Xue Yuke sorted out the information.

Weird villages, weird villagers, strange houses and buildings, motionless clouds in the sky, fishy schools...

There is no doubt that this is not the real world.

But it's not some formation or low-level illusion.

Everyone here seems to be living a very real life, but in fact it is just their remaining souls that survive. There is a kind of power that supports them to live in this beautiful state.

They ignore all unreasonableness as a matter of course, regard being alive as a great blessing, and have a positive and tolerant attitude towards everything in life.

As for what this power is and what is going on...

Xue Yuke already had a vague guess in his heart.

She tried to use her own strength to break through it, but she couldn't find any loopholes.

If she forcibly destroys this world, those villagers will disappear forever.

But Xue Yuke can't waste too much time here. After all, the original owner said that there was something important waiting for her to do.

It seemed that she needed to talk to that person.

The one who was the only difference.

"You are not Yuan Su."

At this moment, a man's voice came from behind.

Xue Yuke looked back and saw that the person coming was Wang Yuan, the owner of Blue Sky Hotel.

It's just that Wang Yuan's expression is no longer so kind, but there is no malice in it, but there is no expression on his face, as cold as if he is not human.

Xue Yuke smiled slightly. She was about to look for him when he came.

"who are you?"

Wang Yuan did not answer Xue Yuke's question, but turned to look at the villages one by one.

It was already time to cook dinner, and smoke was rising from every house, adding a bit of smoke and smoke to this weird place.

Under the reflection of the orange sunset, people feel a little warm in their hearts.

"I know you are very powerful, but please give them a way to survive."

"Stop your curiosity, and don't say anything to them, or they will die."

"What Yuan Su wants to do has been done for her. You can completely reassure her."

Speaking of this, Wang Yuan's face actually became a little heavy.

Xue Yuke also suppressed a smile: "What if I say no?"

Wang Yuan was not angry, but said slowly: "Let me tell you a story, but you should have heard this story."

"A man is about to be beheaded, and the executioner happens to be his best friend."

"Before the execution, the executioner secretly found an opportunity to say to the man: 'During the execution, I will only cut your rope. Once the rope is cut, you will run forward as hard as you can. Remember, never look back.'"

"The man nodded in agreement."

"During the execution, the executioner slashed with his knife. After the man felt that the rope around his neck was cut, he ran out as fast as he could and did not dare to look back."

"Just like that, the man ran back home in one breath. The wife heard the noise and went out to check, and found that her husband had not been beheaded. The two hugged each other and cried."

Wang Yuan's voice paused, and Xue Yuke continued.

"Ten years later, by chance, the executioner passed by the man's house. His wife invited the executioner to her home to entertain him, and specially thanked him for his great kindness ten years ago."

"The executioner was stunned when he saw the man on the side. He quickly pulled his wife aside and said that the man was beheaded by him ten years ago. At that time, he only said that to comfort the man."

"At this moment, the man's head fell to the ground and his wife turned to ashes. The surrounding scene also turned into ruins."

After the story was told, Wang Yuan sighed softly.

"Yes, the man actually died a long time ago, and his wife also set herself on fire after learning about the death. But the man didn't know that he was dead. It was a thought that kept him and his wife alive. After learning the truth At that moment, the only outcome for the two of them was to disappear into ashes."

Although he was telling a story, Xue Yuke knew that he was also talking about these villagers.
