Penitent hand, trembling slightly

The remaining half was not enough for anything, Lou Jingmo kicked his upper foot, and its body was completely separated from the cliff, and it fell to the ground with six monkeys, making a loud noise.

Lou Jingmo hung himself on the cliff, and a white light appeared in front of his eyes, as if he was about to leave the dream.

She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and called out Shen Maomao.

Yashang didn't respond, maybe she had already returned to reality one step earlier, so she allowed herself to be surrounded by warm white light, and when she opened her eyes again, she had already returned to Zhang Jianshe's house.

Warm sunshine came in from the window. Today is the fifth day of the game, and they need to go to the village chief's house for a meeting.

She obviously slept all night, but she felt her back was sore and her legs were cramping, and she didn't look like she had rested at all.

Next to him, Shen Maomao huddled under the quilt, his eyes were closed tightly, and he hadn't woken up yet.

Lou Jingmo stretched out his hand and pushed her, wanting to stop sleeping and get up to go to the meeting.Who would have thought that as soon as her hand touched Shen Maomao's body, there would be a burning sensation from the back of her neck.

She opened her eyes wide suddenly, turned Shen Maomao over and let her lie on the bed, revealing a tattoo on the back of her neck that she didn't know.

——Rather than saying that it was a tattoo engraved on the skin, it was more like a birthmark that had already grown in the skin.

The pattern is cyan, round, with a six-pointed star in the middle, and the six corners of the six-pointed star have complicated patterns, which seem to be irregular.

At this time, a red streamer flashed quickly on the pattern, and then disappeared quickly.

Lou Jingmo touched the back of his neck with one hand, and put the other hand on Shen Maomao's neck, which was a little hot.

There are exactly the same patterns on their necks, this is the contract between them, and it will only be revealed in the game world.

After the streamer disappeared, the high temperature also subsided, and Shen Maomao, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes.

……

Something is not quite right.

As soon as he opened his eyes, Shen Maomao felt a strange touch on the back of his neck.

Her hairs stood on her head, flustered and afraid, but she didn't dare to move, for fear of arousing the murderous intent of the people behind her.

The hand was moving around her neck, as if tracing some pattern, it was itchy and weird, and she couldn't help shivering.

"Are you awake?" Lou Jingmo's voice came into her ears, she turned over all of a sudden, and saw Lou Jingmo's right hand retracted naturally.

A false alarm.

Shen Maomao lifted the quilt and got up, feeling a little strange about her behavior just now, and asked, "Sister Lou, were you thinking about how to strangle me to death just now?"

Lou Jingmo: "Why should I strangle you to death???"

Shen Maomao: "I'm just kidding, what were you doing, Sister Lou?"

Lou Jingmo's eyes darkened: "You just died once."

Shen Maomao was puzzled: "??? Am I living a good life?!"

Lou Jingmo said: "Do you remember the contract? After signing the contract, it can save your life. Just now the contract worked."

Shen Maomao was confused: "I just died?? How did I die??"

Just as Lou Jingmo was about to say something, Zhang's aunt's loud voice came from downstairs: "Girls! Hurry up and eat! You have to go to the village chief's house for a meeting today!"

So she asked Shen Maomao to be calm and not to be impatient, and to talk about it later.

The two dressed and washed, and went to the two adjacent rooms to take a look before going downstairs, but Wei Yu and Wang Xiaoming still didn't come back.

The seven members of Zhang's family sat together in the yard. Zhang Jianshe's father was not feeling well today and did not come out for dinner.There were nine sets of cutlery on the dining table. The Zhang family didn't ask where the other men and women had gone, but consciously saved their cutlery.

After just a few mouthfuls, Zhang Aiguo urged, "Hurry up and go to the meeting. The village chief said it's best to go early, and it's the same when you come back to eat."

The more anxious he was, the less anxious Shen Maomao became: "I had a nightmare last night, I'm so hungry, I can't walk without some food..."

Lou Jingmo also sat firmly on the stool, unshakable.

The two ate without haste, Zhang Aiguo's eyes were red with anxiety, and he wished he could rush up to help them finish the meal.It was his wife who gave him a tug, shook his head slightly, and dragged him into the room to whisper.

After eating, there was nothing else to delay the time. The two could only pat their buttocks and leave Zhang's house, walking on the small road in the village.

The gates of every household in the village were closed tightly, and all the people who used to stroll on the road with nothing to do were gone.There are two figures not far away. They look like players in their clothes, but it is not clear who they are.

There was still some distance from the village chief's house, Lou Jingmo said proactively, "Do you remember what happened in the dream?"

"remember."

"Then how did you die?"

Shen Maomao scratched his head: "I don't feel it... It was you who had an accident fighting with that thing. I died once for you, and then the prop saved my dog's life?"

Lou Jingmo looked at her like an idiot: "If you die for me, the props won't work."

Shen Maomao thought for a while, and suddenly clapped his hands: "I seem to understand! Didn't I fight with those monkeys? Because I didn't feel any pain, I didn't pay attention to where I got hurt. Wait until I throw all the monkeys away. After going down to attract firepower, the world was spinning for a while, a bit like the situation when entering the game, so I thought I was going to escape from the dream.”

After finishing speaking, she blinked pitifully and looked at Lou Jingmo: "So I was actually injured too much and lost too much blood?"

Lou Jingmo was a little silent, not knowing what to say.

Shen Maomao pretended to cry: "Hey, it's so scary QAQ, Sister Lou protects me!"

Lou Jingmo pushed her face away expressionlessly: "You can solve six mutated monkeys, why pretend to be pitiful with me?"

Shen Maomao is weak and weak: "What's so scary about monkeys, I have learned judo...but people are afraid of ghosts QAQ."

Lou Jingmo really didn't see that Shen Maomao still had this ability, and said in surprise: "What are you afraid of? Are you beating it?"

It's okay not to mention this, but she gets very angry when she mentions it.

Shen Maomao broke down and said: "The ghost can't beat it!!"

It was so real, I shed tears.

The two people walking in front of them stopped when they heard their voices, as if waiting for them to pass.

Shen Maomao recognized these two people as Ye Tingnan and Shao Mei, and the boy named Wang Sheng was not there.

Ye Tingnan's complexion was gloomy, Shao Mei's eyes were red, and both of them were haggard.

When the four of them met, Ye Tingnan whispered, "Wang Sheng and Shan Xiao died in a dream..."

Shen Maomao's eyes widened: "Are you also dreaming?"

Shao Mei nodded, with a sore nose, and tears gushing out: "I thought we were the only ones dreaming... Those monsters are so scary..."

She couldn't help crying, Ye Tingnan patted her on the shoulder comfortingly, and said: "The four of us entered the same dream last night. In the dream, Lingyuan in Lingyuan Village is actually the word spirit and ape..."

It turned out that Shan Xiao hadn't died before, but had been acting alone to find Wu Menghan, vowing to see the dead and the dead.

The four of them entered the dream together last night and appeared directly at the gate of the village.They were startled by the red moon in the sky, and then found Wu Menghan who had been missing for several days under the pagoda tree at the entrance of the village and seemed to be intact.

None of the other three dared to go up, but Shan Xiao saw the girl he loved, his long-cherished wish was fulfilled, and he walked over without hesitation, and was then swallowed by a group of vague black shadows.

The other three were frightened and dumbfounded. They didn't think of running away until Shao Mei screamed.

Perhaps because there was already enough food, only a small part of those shadows chased out, and they ran desperately along the path they came from.

The path outside the village is long and narrow, getting narrower as you go.In the end, there are soaring mountains on both sides, allowing only one person to pass at a time.

The two boys protected Shao Mei in the middle, Ye Tingnan opened the way, and Wang Sheng cut off.After running for an unknown amount of time, Shao Mei turned around and realized that Wang Sheng and those shadows had disappeared at some point.

She called Ye Tingnan's name, supported the mountain wall and stopped, her heart was beating wildly, and her ears were buzzing.

In front of them was an endless path, and above them was a canyon that covered the sky and the sun. Only a trace of blood-red moonlight shone down from the ray of sky above their heads, which was coquettish and cold.

The two didn't dare to move forward, and they were caught in the crack and spent the night in fear. After waking up early the next morning, they found that Wang Sheng and Shan Xiao hadn't breathed.

……

After all this was said, they had arrived near the village chief's house.Shao Mei suppressed her emotions and wiped her tears with paper.

The house of the village chief's house is bright and tidy, and there is also a statue covered with red cloth in the middle of the yard, but there are no tributes in front of the statue.

Yun Shengjin arrived one step ahead of them, and his face was also ugly. There was no one around him, and the big brother who came back from the back mountain didn't know where he went.

In a dream last night, there were heavy casualties.

The living room of the village head’s house was clean and bright. There was a row of mahogany chairs inside. Five people sat down one after another. The village head’s son served them tea and then left the room.

Holding a cane, the old man slowly sat on the main seat, coughed twice and then said, "Are you curious about the priests in our village?"

Shen Maomao: "Not curious, not curious."

village head:"……"

Lou Jingmo punched her, and Shen Maomao immediately shut up.

Yun Shengjin said: "Village Chief, you can speak directly if you have something to say."

The village chief smiled: "In this case, let me just say it straight. I want to invite a few of you to participate in the sacrifice, and then take a few photos to take out to publicize the folk customs..."

When they first came, they were not allowed to participate in the sacrifice, for fear of disturbing the gods, but now they are asked to take pictures for the sacrifice, and no one believes that there are no ghosts.

Yun Shengjin is not an idiot who has lived through several worlds. As soon as the village chief finished speaking, he raised a question: "We are not believers, so aren't you afraid that the Monkey God will be angry because of this?"

The village head smiled and said: "In fact, everyone knows that worshiping gods is just a kind of spiritual sustenance. You are all from outside. You should know more about feudal superstitions than me, right? I discussed it with the villagers and wanted to use your This is an opportunity to publicize the sacrificial ceremony, attract tourists to participate in the sacrificial ceremony, and drive that...it seems to be called the tertiary industry, right? Through the sacrificial ceremony, the development of the village's tertiary industry will be promoted, and the village will become more prosperous..."
