under one roof

51

Yang Jian's hands became a little stronger, and Yu Chen gasped in pain.The two of them looked at the door together, and it was Li Lingyuan who came in.

The immature boy had a reluctant expression on his face. He threw a lunch box in his hand on the table and said, "I'll deliver food to you today."

"Thank you." Yang Jian was polite.

Li Lingyuan looked around and saw the injury on Yu Chen's palm. He thought for a while, then threw the water bottle pinned to his waist on the table, and said, "It's useless. It's cleaned up. I might ask you guys to do something tomorrow." .”

Yu Chen felt a little unbearable to be so disgusted by someone much younger than himself, he lowered his hand and said, "Xiao Yuan, I haven't talked to you yet. You are not at home and staying well, why are you here?"

"I have no home." Li Lingyuan replied.

"Where are your parents?" Yu Chen asked, "What happened to them?"

"Dead." Li Lingyuan replied very calmly, which surprised Yu Chen and Yang Jian, "My mother was not in good health. After my sister left, she was angry with you and was hospitalized again? Then she went home It didn’t work out all the time, so I left too. Later, it rained heavily and my father didn’t come back. Some people said that the rain was too heavy and the river flooded and washed away my father. Everyone said that my family had suffered retribution, but who knows.” He spoke calmly, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

"Impossible!" Yu Chen said, "It's already winter, how could it be possible to have such a heavy rain?"

Li Lingyuan said: "How is that impossible? It's still snowing in June after being wronged!" His tone was not kind, Yang Jian was afraid that Yu Chen's brain would turn into an unpleasant quarrel with Li Lingyuan, who already had a grudge against them.Now they only know this person in this place, and they must not make things worse.

"What about you?" Yang Jian asked calmly, "You came here? What do these people... do?"

Li Lingyuan said: "You don't need to ask about it. I've had enough of this world, but in two days, I'll be free."

Yang Jian frowned, and asked, "How to get rid of it?"

"You talk too much."

Yang Jian uttered a spell-like sentence that he heard when he was moving stones. Yu Chen couldn't understand, so he could only stare at it with wide eyes. Li Lingyuan asked, "How do you know this sentence?"

"The second girl taught me." Yang Jian smiled, but his insides were tense. He only asked Li Lingyuan not to know much, otherwise he would not be able to deceive him, "The second girl is stubborn, but she has promised Me, when the outer door is built, she will take me with her."

Li Lingyuan said: "Second Miss is not interested in people like you!"

"Oh yes?" Yang Jian said, "Then why didn't she just kill us? Or let us fend for ourselves here, why did she ask you to deliver food? Why did she tell us about the existence of that door?"

Li Lingyuan was stunned for a moment, as if he was really thinking about Yang Jian's question.

Yang Jian continued: "There are so many of you here, but none of you can figure out what the second girl is thinking?" His tone of "I am your son-in-law" made Yu Chen involuntarily raise his head, his eyelids fluttering like this. When turning up, it can be more or less covered up.Li Lingyuan is not very old, and he doesn't seem to know much about the internal affairs of the center, so he said directly: "I teach everyone to be brothers and sisters, who would think about your boring questions!"

teach?

Both Yang Jian and Yu Chen keenly grasped this word.From the very beginning, Yang Jian felt that the situation was too abnormal. He thought this was a base, but he didn't expect that a sect would be involved.But their behavior and style are really not like the existing sect style. If you say it forcibly - I'm afraid it's a cult created by some demons and ghosts.

In this way, those strange spells and weird creeds all make sense.

"Love each other?" Yang Jian said seriously, "Then Yu Chen and I have both joined the religion tomorrow, so you don't have to talk to us with such a stinking face?"

"The leader is going to retreat for you, I'm afraid it won't be your turn." Li Lingyuan said, "He will take us to a place where there is no prejudice and everyone is equal and happy. Then I will forget all the sufferings I have suffered here. When the time comes Who remembers you two?"

"Xiaoyuan..." Yu Chen's words were all squeezed in his throat.He made friends with Li Zhaodi, and the Li Lingyuan he had heard from Li Zhaodi was an existence that would not be reassuring. He did not like this young man unilaterally.It's just that time has passed and they have all encountered various things. Looking at Li Lingyuan now, he only feels bitter.

In the end who owed whom, this boy lost his family in a short period of time.What exactly did he go through when he was in despair, that made him believe that someone would take him to a world of equality and happiness.

Does that world exist?Absolutely no, there will be neither Eden nor Utopia in this world. The land of dreams exists in people's hearts, and it is not made of matter, so how can we get there?

"After today..." Yang Jian murmured, "There are still two days before we can leave. Xiaoyuan, I hope to meet you there. And..." He shook Li Lingyuan threw the kettle on the table, "Thank you for your kindness."

Li Lingyuan still had that unhappy expression, he didn't talk to Yang Jian again, turned around and opened the door and left.After his footsteps completely disappeared, Yang Jian breathed out and his shoulders relaxed.Yu Chen on the side asked: "What conclusion did you draw?"

"The conclusion I came to is—" Yang Jian said, "The day that the 'religious leader' in Li Lingyuan's mouth and the 'big brother' in the mouth of the second girl leaves the customs, I'm afraid it will be the time when we die."

Yu Chen asked nervously, "Why?"

Yang Jian said: "Did you pay attention to them and others when you were working in the afternoon? I looked at my side, and most of them were older, far different from Li Ling. Their eyes were full of faith but their bodies were very tired. I just now The mantra-like sentence I told Li Lingyuan was learned from them. If this is really a cult, think about it, what is the result of the cult’s so-called happiness in the usual sense? "

"Dead." Yu Chen replied.

"Yes." Yang Jian snapped his fingers, "It should be related to that door. They should have a very mature organizational structure, such as the planes and armed forces outside when we came in. This is part of it. The other is working inside. Part of it. I guess there should be some people responsible for life. They are completely isolated from the outside world, and there should be something like a barrier outside."

"And just in time for NO.4 to break down." Yu Chen said, "In this way, there is no way to monitor them, and everything happened quietly. Maybe this organization...ah no, a cult. Hmm , Maybe this cult has existed for a long time, but they want to start a certain activity, and they cannot be interfered by NO.4."

"No.4, the earthquake, and that door... are all too coincidental." Yang Jian pondered, "And why did you attract us? What is the purpose?"

"There is also the previous thought awakening experiment." Yu Chen said, "What does this all point to?"

Yang Jian sat on the chair and thought for a long time, but he couldn't give a specific answer, so he could only say dejectedly: "No matter what you point to, you can't avoid the price of death."

This topic is too heavy, and Yu Chen doesn't want to continue thinking about it.He patted Yang Jian on the shoulder and said, "Let's not talk about the far ones, let's talk about the closer ones. What about us? What should we do... we can't just sit and wait for death."

Yang Jian said: "I'm afraid the people here won't be able to find out anything. We can only observe secretly, and wait until the legendary leader leaves the customs, and then adapt accordingly. But at that time, it should have reached a critical moment of life and death." He Turning her head towards Yu Chen and smiling, she asked, "Are you afraid?"

Yu Chen has always been timid, especially when it comes to matters of life and death. He has experienced it once, and he definitely does not want to experience it again.He shook his head, paused, nodded again, and said, "Actually, I'm also afraid of death when I'm with you, but I'll try my best to overcome it."

Yang Jian chuckled and said, "Then I'll try my best to keep both of us safe."

He tore off a piece of rag from his clothes and wetted it with the water provided by Li Lingyuan, then spread Yu Chen's hand flat, and carefully cleaned the wound for him.There are no good conditions here, Yang Jian only hopes that Yu Chen's body recovery ability will be faster, so that the scabs will be fine tomorrow.

"hiss……"

"pain?"

"Yeah." Yu Chen said honestly, "But it's okay, it's cold in winter now, maybe it won't hurt if it gets numb from freezing, but it will be troublesome in summer."

"What are you thinking about?" Yang Jian knocked on Yu Chen's forehead, "What if it freezes?"

"No way……"

Yang Jian didn't want to talk to Yu Chen any more, he quickly cleaned up the wound for him, and then wrapped up the more serious part with cloth.Yu Chen's palm was wrapped, leaving only his fingers outside, unable to bend.He looked at Yang Jian, then at the dinner in front of him, and said, "Then how can I eat?" He smiled and continued, "Feed me."

"Why didn't I know you have so many things to do?" Yang Jian raised his eyebrows.

"I've always had a lot of things to do." Yu Chen said, "Hey, actually I really want to smoke."

"You went outside to find some dried leaves to smoke." Yang Jian pointed him to a clear path, "I think the effect should be similar."

Yu Chen refused: "Then this is too hard! Uh..." A mouthful of rice was stuffed into his mouth, Yang Jian said: "Eat, don't force me." Yu Chen chewed and swallowed vigorously, and finally smacked and tasted the taste. It was cold, but surprisingly, it was still edible.But having said that, even if Yang Jian feeds him shit——

No, no, no, you can't give up your principles!

It is rare for Yu Chen to be served by Yang Jian once. He knew it was because he was injured, so Yang Jian pampered him once.He was just pampering him once, and he didn't dare to continue asking for things that were too much.He obediently watched Yang Jian put away the box, then pointed at him and said, "Go to sleep."

"Am I a pig?" Yu Chen pointed at himself unreasonably, "Sleep after eating? Don't take a breath to digest? Comrade Yang Aotian, what misunderstanding do you have about human beings' work and rest?"

"Then what else are you doing?" Yang Jian said, "Let's stare at each other with big eyes and small eyes?"

"That's right." Yu Chen said, "There's really nothing to do." He walked around the room a few times, and then sat back in front of Yang Jian.He wrapped his hands around the back of his neck, untied the knot at the back with extremely inflexible fingers, then put the neck rope on Yang Jian's chest, and hung it up again.

"In order to reward you." Yu Chen said eloquently, "Xiansheng Zhenjun condescended to wrap up my wounds and feed me, how could I be ashamed if I didn't show it? Didn't you say that your ability may have something to do with this jade?" Is it? Anyway, it’s useless for me to carry it, so I’ll give it to you.”

Yang Jian said, "I'm just guessing."

"Hey, it's almost done." Yu Chen said, "Even if it's useless at all, you are better than me if you carry it. Don't you still want to pick up girls? What if you don't even have a token of love when you spend time with someone?" If you can’t take it out, it will be very embarrassing, I said Comrade Yang Aotian.”

Yang Jian said: "So I want to take the things you gave me and give them as tokens of love?"

"Uh……"

Yang Jian looked Yu Chen up and down, knowing that he couldn't even speak fart, so he took a few steps to the bedside and turned on the bed, lying comfortably and said: "You don't sleep, do you? Then you wait Come on, I'm going to rest." After saying that, he closed his eyes.

Although his eyes were closed, Yang Jian's ears were still working.The dim light in the room went out after a while, and the surroundings became pitch black. There were a few rustling noises, and there was a creaking sound from the other side of the bed.Someone cautiously wanted to keep his voice down as much as possible, but it didn't work out. The bed was so old, it was like honking a horn.In the end, the man gave up, pulled Yang Jian's arm away and lay down in his arms, and then he didn't move anymore.

It was bright daylight, and today the second girl sent someone to wake them up to do coolies later than yesterday.Only after Yang Jian pushed the door did he realize that it was snowing.

This place is located in the southwest, and the snow outside is as thick as knees like in the northeast, Yang Jian is quite strange.What's even more strange is that those people didn't sweep the snow, but just cleaned up the area around them, and continued to move stones and knock stones like yesterday.

Yang Jian asked the elder brother who came to call them, "Are we still doing yesterday's work?"

"Hmm." The eldest brother didn't say a word.

After arriving at the construction site, Yang Jian quietly said to Yu Chen: "Don't work so hard, just put on a show, you understand?"

"I...I'll try." Yu Chen felt that it was more technically difficult to pretend.

Yang Jian couldn't control him for the time being, and carried his own bamboo basket to transport the stones.When he was transporting the stone to the foot of the huge stone gate that fit the stone wall, the person who was sticking the stone at the height of one person suddenly fell down exhausted, and everyone hurriedly surrounded him, and someone shouted, "Send it to the second girl quickly." ", several men took the fainted away.

There is no one to take over this person's work, so Yang Jian said: "Let me take his place, I have plenty of strength."

No one answered, no one refuted, and everyone went back to their own work.

Yang Jian took it as a promise, put down the bamboo basket, and climbed to the highest point along the rope.Then he fixed one end of the rope around his waist, and took a hammer to chisel into the stone wall.He was working hard, but his eyes kept looking down.

This should be the highest place here, and you can almost see the whole picture.He tried hard to identify the place where the so-called leader retreated, and finally at the farthest end of the position directly opposite the stone gate, he saw a cave with a guarded door.He decided that it should be there, because directly above the cave, there were patterns painted that ordinary people would not notice.
