Doomsday Jedi Strikes Back
Chapter 17 The Last Overture
It was still early, and there was still a long time before noon. After Xu Han left by the stream, he walked straight on without looking back.
After walking for more than half an hour, I turned my head and looked at the path I used to come and go between the gaps in a dense forest, but I saw a vague shadow in a daze, and I was not sure if it was the place where I stayed.
Xu Han used the dagger to cut off the various weeds on the skin on both sides of the calf, and at the same time moved towards the huge blurry shadow in the distance, step by step, getting closer and closer. To that huge shadow is a village hidden deep in the forest.
The overall outline of the village is a semicircle, with another arc bent from the middle of the circle. The houses on both sides are symmetrical and separated by the arc in the middle.
From a distance, it looks like a huge underground complex, and the forest is the outer coffin of this complex, tightly wrapping the village inside.
Of course, looking closer, this building is not as huge as Xu Han imagined.
The houses in the village are all made of wooden boards, and the stoves placed outside each house are also made of stones, and a small pot made of iron sheets is placed on it.
Xu Han was instantly relieved. Although the housing in this place seemed crude and rough, fortunately there was still an iron pot, so cooking would be very convenient.
However, this village that suddenly appeared in the depths of the forest was indeed very strange. At least Xu Han went from house to house and walked back and forth in front of people's houses for a long time, but no one outside the village opened the door to check the situation.
Could it be that there is no one in the village?
As soon as this idea flashed in Xu Han's mind, he immediately denied it. Since this village will be built here, it proves that there must have been people in this place before.
In the depths of the forest, there is little interference from the outside world, which means that the end of the world will basically not affect this place on a large scale, and the number of villagers in the village is estimated to be no more than 20 households. If they become zombies, they will always be in this place wandering.
But Xu Han took a closer look inside the village, and found that there was no blood stain left on the wooden door, and there were no traces of fighting on the ground.
In short, the village is clean everywhere.
Xu Han was exhausted and walked non-stop for more than half an hour without taking a break. Now he finally found a glimmer of hope in a remote place, just like a dying fish on a dry river bed suddenly bumped into When the grace comes from the sky, I will definitely try my best to absorb the last drop of rain.
Xu Han stopped on the edge of a stone in front of a house and rested for a while, and breathed evenly before knocking on the wooden door in the middle of the village.
"Dong dong." The old-fashioned wooden door made a few crappy muffled sounds, like a disc playing slowly on an ancient record player.
"who is it?"
Xu Han knocked for a long time before an old voice came out from inside.
Xu Han cleared his throat, lay down by the door and said towards the inside: "Excuse me, I happened to pass by here, and I want to stay here for a few days, I wonder if it's convenient for the old man?"
There was silence inside for a long time, and then the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer to the door was heard, and the door creaked and opened from the inside.
An elderly man with wrinkled face looked out from the gap of the door, his expression seemed to be a little wary, his gaze stayed on Xu Han's face for a long time before turning away.
"come in".
Xu Han's footsteps stopped outside the house for a few seconds before following the old man into the wooden house.
The furnishings inside the wooden house are very simple. There is a simple wooden bed against the wall, a few wooden chairs, and a wooden dining table in the middle. I feel like I have no appetite. (Of course this meal is not for him...)
The old man who led Xu Han in sat down by the bed, and he beckoned Xu Han to sit on the chair beside him.
The old man was senile, and his body showed the morbid image that is often seen in the twilight years. His eyes on both sides were wrinkled and shrunk together, naturally narrowing into two slits.
"Where do you come from? You wouldn't pass by this forest, would you?"
The old man folded his hands on his knees, telling the flaws in Xu Han's words when he entered the door.
Xu Han's face was embarrassing, and his lips were tightly pursed.
Indeed, most people would not come to this deep mountain and old forest without special circumstances. The old man knew clearly why he let himself in, and judging from his expression, he didn't seem to have the attitude he should have when facing the invasion of outsiders.
"The nearby cities are all occupied by zombies, and the base probably won't last long, so I came to this forest to try my luck."
What Xu Han said was not just nonsense. Although he only lived in the apocalypse for one year in his previous life, he still knew about the situation of some bases in the apocalypse at any time.
Not to mention City E, City A outside the woods, or City C where I have lived for many years, they will be completely wiped out in a wave of zombies within a few months.
As for the people living in these bases, whether they will continue to live, or be hunted and killed by the zombies, die in pain, or join the zombies and become one of them, Xu Han has no way of knowing.
It's just that those bases don't exist anymore.
Xu Han felt that although he had explained it in this way, the old man might not be able to completely dispel his doubts. After all, Xu Han is an outsider, whether he exists here or not, of the two, the latter is certainly the safer one.
But who knew, the old man just rubbed his skinny palms, stood up and knocked on a small door next to the bed.
Of course, Xu Han didn't notice that there was a small door there just now.
There were a few knocks like this, but after a while, the door creaked again, and a little girl with pigtails peeked out half of her body.
"Grandpa." The little girl called out.
"Go outside and call the big guy out, he is not in danger." The old man twirled his gray beard and beckoned the little girl to go out.
Xu Han was stunned, confused, and reached into his pocket to grab the handle of his knife.
His powers shouldn't recover for the time being, and if he encounters danger again, he probably won't be able to escape easily.
The old man noticed his defensive look, and immediately had a kind and soft smile on his face: "Don't mind, it's the end of the world after all, people in the village are a little more suspicious, and they will always be wary of some outsiders."
Xu Han thought to himself, this old man is really telling the truth.
The hand holding the handle of the knife loosened, and Xu Han pretended to look outside the door as if nothing had happened. In fact, he felt a little embarrassed in his heart, after all, he misunderstood him.
After a while, there was a lot of movement outside the wooden house, the creaking sound of the wooden door opening, the sound of pots and pans being poured, and the quiet and strange village a few minutes ago suddenly became lively and noisy.
Xu Han was a little curious, and couldn't help but walked out of the cabin to look outside to see what happened. He saw that the wooden doors that were closed just now were all opened at this moment, and many people walked out of these rooms. Like the people in this village.
However, he was a little older, except for the little girl who just walked out, the rest of the villagers were all older, about the same as the old man just now.
When Xu Han came out of the wooden house, a few sharp-eyed villagers saw him at a glance, walked towards him kindly, held his hand, and asked about his situation.
The smile on the corner of Xu Han's mouth was a little stalemate. This was the first time he encountered such a situation, and he really didn't know what to do.
However, judging from this situation, it should be the little girl who told the villagers that she is not a bad person, but just a person passing by and staying overnight.
At noon, Xu Han stayed at the old man's house for dinner, and the little girl sat beside Xu Han and chatted, asking Xu Han what the big city outside looked like, and whether there were many little girls like her, right? There are many toys.
Xu Han really just wanted to say that the end of the world is coming, even if there are toys, it is estimated that except for the children of the leaders of the base, they still have the leisure to buy such toys, other ordinary children may not even be able to afford a toy.
However, if he said these words, he would only shatter other people's illusions...
During lunch, there were still a few plates of unknown green food on the dining table, Xu Han picked up the chopsticks and put them down hastily when he saw these "green food".
It's not that he was spoiled and spoiled by the city since he was a child, not to mention that he has been living alone in a rented house, let alone pampered, it's just that he just can't eat these green things for no reason.
Maybe it's a psychological effect, or these foods are too "green". In short, he finally smiled at the old man apologetically, and found a reason to say that his stomach was uncomfortable, so he ran to the back of the village alone, found a stone and quietly sit down.
"It's really strange today. There are not many people here, but three people came today."
When Xu Han propped his chin and was thinking about the few fish in Ren Zeyao's pocket, a few old people who could be Xu Han's grandma walked past the village.
A few people stopped and walked, talking and laughing, and the old and broken teeth were clearly discernible in their mouths.
"Three people? Is there anyone else here besides myself?"
Xu Han's expression froze, and he got up from the stone. He just came here not long ago, and someone else followed?
It couldn't be that group of hunters came back for revenge, right? My ability is invalid now, but I can't resist it.
It's better to secretly inquire about the situation before making a plan.
After Xu Han made up his mind, he took a detour and turned back to the entrance of the village, but hid behind a wooden house.
Sure enough, a lot of people gathered at the entrance of the village, forming a circle around the entrance of the village, crowds of people looked inside the circle.
Only two people came, so there shouldn't be any danger. The people inside were covered by the villagers, and no matter how Xu Han looked behind the wooden house, he couldn't see anything.
He simply lost his patience, and directly pushed aside the crowd and looked into the circle.
Seeing this, he was speechless and silent for a long time...
Ren Zeyao was wearing his own blanket and his backpack on his back, squatting beside the big rock at the entrance of the village with a dull expression.
However, when Xu Han turned his gaze, the one who was held by Ren Zeyao, lying on the ground in a state of embarrassment and covered in dust, wasn't that the Orion boy?
How could they be together, such a magical match, and Ren Zeyao, you think that if you look a little stunned and cute, you won't see the Orion boy lying there with a snot and a tear.
Damn, this is really up to me...
Xu Han held his forehead, feeling powerless to complain.
As he expected, Ren Zeyao took a few glances in the crowd, and soon his eyes were fixed on Xu Han. He passed the group of good-looking and lively villagers, and walked straight towards Xu Han, holding his hand in his hand. The little Orion who is willing to keep looking at Xu Han for help.
The eyes of the villagers followed the movement of Ren Zeyao's footsteps.
Xu Han really wanted to run away at this time, saying that he didn't know these two idiots at all.
Ren Zeyao stood in front of Xu Han, staring at him with radiant eyes, Xu Han was horrified by his staring.
In the next second, Ren Zeyao buried his head on Xu Han's neck, and licked the skin on Xu Han's neck under the cover of the blanket.
This time, the tongue licked the scarred skin, and it was numb, and the only fang only touched Xu Han's skin symbolically and retracted.
Xu Han understood what Ren Zeyao meant, no matter what happened in the future, that only fang would never reach him again...

It's hard to understand why it was audited again today after the audit was passed last night. . .
