"Why hasn't he come back yet?" The young man who talked to Shuang Lin just now took a glass of water from the car, walked to Shuang Zhi, squinted his eyes and said with a bit of a joke: "Stomach is uncomfortable, it can't be constipation. Alright."

A few people who heard it next to him burst into laughter, Shuang Zhi took out a handkerchief from his arms, wiped his mouth, and scolded with a smile: "Isn't constipation normal these days? You haven't had constipation before. I remember you still Have hemorrhoids."

If Shuang Zhi was here at this time, he would be extremely surprised. The environment really can change a person the most. In the past 20 years, Shuang Zhi has always been polite, gentle and humble, and he has never heard such rough words from him.

"Pfft ha ha ha ha..." Shuang Zhi said so loudly that almost everyone heard it, and the laughter was even louder, and a few even joked with the young man.

"Who has hemorrhoids? There is a box of hemorrhoid cream in the materials confiscated the day before yesterday. Do you want to try it?"

"How can hemorrhoid cream work? Let's go to the hospital and have a look. This thing needs to be treated early, otherwise you will have to suffer."

"Looking at what you said, Lao Zhang seems to understand it very well."

"Go, go, don't slander my innocence." The young man who got hemorrhoids quit. He is gay and a pure zero. Being said to have hemorrhoids is like saying that a man has no penis. It is the same as slandering personality. exist.

"Keep your voice down, don't be too arrogant." Seeing a few people talking more and more vigorously, Shuang Zhi came out to warn, and you should be careful when you go out. Who knows if there are any zombies around here? The most important thing is what they said It's so loud, it's easy not to hear...

"Ah ah ah ah ah--"

There was a scream in the distance, and the people who were joking just now stood up quickly, including Shuang Zhi, who frowned and looked worried: "It's Ah Lin." He hurriedly walked in the direction where Shuang Zhi left After walking a few steps, he explained to the rest of the people, "I'll go over and have a look, you guys are waiting here."

"How can I let Brother Shuang go alone, I will go too."

"Count me in."

"And I."

Several people stood up one after another and said they wanted to follow, Shuang Zhi slightly hooked his lips, what he wanted was this effect, "The car is still here, we have to leave a few people to watch, Lao Zheng, Tian Qing and Xiao Li followed me Go, and the rest stay." Old Zheng's fire-type ability is top-notch in the team, but his temper is careless and careless. Tian Qing and Xiao Li are still young, and their insight is not strong. It is extremely admirable and well guided.

The few people didn't go far, and found a shoe on the ground. The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, and there were some clothes corners scattered around. There was a flash of disbelief, and then quickly calmed down, "It belongs to Ah Lin." There was an imperceptible tremor in the voice.

"Brother..." Xiao Li opened his mouth worriedly, but he didn't know what to say.

"Who!" Shuang Zhi suddenly raised his head and looked around vigilantly. The other three were also infected and tense. After a while, a pair of "lanterns" the size of copper bells flashed to Tian Qing's left side. Capture, but all the supernatural beings present, they saw clearly that the lantern was a pair of vertical pupils, shining green light, especially in the dark night.

Lao Zheng raised his hand and smashed it with a fireball, the light flashed away quickly, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Lao Zheng pointed out a ball of fire, and looked around, but there was no sign of it. The four of them were vigilant for a while, and finally both Zhi said lightly: "It left."

Shuang Zhi is a third-level psychic supernatural power, the only one in the base, and several people naturally believe his words.They took off their vigilant postures and stood silently, no one spoke, or they didn't know what to say to comfort Shuang Zhi.

They have never seen the ability of Shuanglin before, so they don't know how deep it is. The one named Xiaobai looks like a vase. The thing just now looks like a wild cat. Judging by the size of its eyes, it is at least twice the size of a tiger. , especially the ability of the speed department, and the night is their home field, so there is almost no need to speculate about the fate of Shuanglin and the boy.

The silence spread like this, and after an unknown amount of time, Shuang Zhi uttered three words softly, "Go back." The voice was weak and hoarse, and the three of them looked at each other, let alone dared to say anything.

Not far away, behind a haystack, Li Taibai hugged the exhausted black cat, looked at the farther and farther fire in front of him, and looked at Shuanglin suspiciously: "Have you not discussed with Shuangzhi? He looks very sad."

"Brother had a dream of being an actor when he was young." Shuang Lin embraced Xiaobai, "Didn't I tell you that I wanted to be called Big Brother?"

"No," Li Taibai shook his head stubbornly, "He's a bad guy, so I don't want to call him big brother." A cat is a proud and vengeful animal.

"Okay, it's up to you," Shuanglin spread his hands, "Now we don't have a car, and the Wucun village that the elder brother said is still some distance away, we have to rely on two legs."

"When I recover, I can take you there in the blink of an eye."

"Then when will you recover?"

"Um...I don't know."

……

The two of them put their shoulders together and walked in the dark night. You talked to each other, even if there was no special topic, there seemed to be endless things to say.

Finally, there were only the two of them, so there was no need to worry about anything.

"Don't you need to rest? You didn't sleep last night." Li Taibai began to pay attention to Shuanglin's routine and his physical condition.

"I can hold on, let's go a little further."

"Then you hold it, it's so heavy now." Li Taibai pouted, and handed the black cat into Shuanglin's arms.

"Then you carry your Xiaojin." Shuanglin smiled helplessly, and took the black cat.

"It belongs to Xuanmao." Li Taibai tilted his head, not taking the drink bottle that Shuanglin handed over.

"Meow~~~" Xuanmao grievously meowed at Li Taibai a few times, Li Taibai curled his lips, but still took Xiao Jin over.

"Ah!" While walking, Li Taibai suddenly stopped with an exclamation, "We forgot to tell Lele and them, if Lele really thought we were dead, wouldn't it be very sad."

It turned out that he was worried about this, so Shuanglin walked over and pulled Li Taibai to continue walking, "Don't worry, they won't believe it, I have already asked my elder brother to take care of them."

"why?"

"Because they have brains."

----------

Shuangzhi lost his brother, so he was naturally depressed. He endured and continued to complete the task. The people in the team wanted to comfort them, but they were afraid that they would say the wrong thing and do something bad with good intentions, which made Shuangzhi feel uncomfortable. For a while, the whole team fell into silence. .

Shuang Zhi didn't seem to know what his teammates were thinking. He held the map in his hand and compared it carefully. After a while, he seemed to have discovered something, and suddenly raised his head: "We went wrong. We passed that fork in the road yesterday. Wrong way." He took out the map and pointed, and said to the young man watching the car, "Go back."

----------

"Hey, Shuanglin, look." Li Taibai squatted down and pointed to the withered grass on both sides of the road, sharing his new discovery with Shuanglin in surprise, "They have sprouted." Since the temperature suddenly cooled, most plants have grown In response to stress, leaves drop or wither instantly to reduce water consumption and preserve vitality.

"Natural selection of the fittest, are they adapting to the environment?"

"The spiritual energy has become much stronger, and it has caught up with the low-level spiritual grass."

Shuanglin suddenly thought of the purpose of his elder brother's trip, and squatted down to investigate, "Is it a mutated plant?"

"No, there's no response." Li Taibai poked the buds hiding in the withered grass, "When we get to Wucun, I'll set up a spirit gathering array around it to protect the four seasons like spring, ah," the raccoon Taibai was proud of Suddenly frowned, with a look of annoyance, "There is no Lingshi."

"Spirit stone?"

"Well... Of course you don't have natural spirit stones here, but if there are jade stones, I can warm up a few pieces and use them to deal with them."

"When we find a place, we have to go to the city center. I can't guarantee anything else. There must be no one collecting jade. Then you can take it."

The Xuanmao has recovered, and Shuanglin put it on the ground to walk on its own, and the drink bottle containing Xiaojin returned to his hand.The map that Shuang Zhi drew for him was very vague. It is estimated that he had never been to this village, so he probably took a map based on the news he heard. Throwing it aside, walking on the narrow dirt road just by feeling, counting wherever you go.

Shuanglin didn't know where they had gone. Looking around, there were more and more mountains around. Unfortunately, the sudden change in temperature caused most of the trees to wither, and the hills were bare. The water, the pleasant scenery of birds and flowers.

"There's a small path here, let's take a look." Shuanglin held Li Taibai and walked towards the path on the right. The pure dirt road was extremely narrow, and it seemed a bit crowded when they walked side by side.

The two walked for a long time without seeing the end. They just felt that they were going around in circles. It felt like a mountain road with eighteen bends. Li Taibai was pulled by the twin purlins with one hand, looking around restlessly, his big eyes were full of curiosity Zhise, after climbing an uphill, the path is sandwiched between two mountains. The traces on the mountain seem to be artificially excavated, but it is wider than before, and four people can barely pass by side by side.

When they came here, Shuanglin already had a plan in mind. This time, he didn't go far this time. On the left side of the path, a dam broke into the two people's sight. The lake is vast and calm, with a slight light green color, which makes people feel happy when they see it. There was a blue-tiled house standing beside the dam, and Shuanglin adjusted the hat on Li Taibai's head to make sure that there were no traces, and led him into the house.

The door is clean, there are no fallen leaves, and there are no cobwebs under the eaves. It should be cleaned by someone from time to time. "There is someone inside", Li Taibai waved the hand holding the double purlin, reminding softly.

"Yeah." Shuanglin nodded, and opened the door with his hands.

"Ahhhh..." A gray-haired old woman looked at Shuanglin and Li Taibai vigilantly with a wooden stick in her hand, and kept making hoarse voices, with the intention of expelling them, as if she was a mute, Shuanglin and Li Taibai confronted each other Glancing at him, he turned his head to look at the old woman, trying to keep a harmless smile on his face.

"Grandma, don't get excited. We just passed by here and saw someone in the house. Come in and have a look. There is no malice."

The mother-in-law looked up at them, the tense expression on her face eased a little, but she didn't put down the wooden stick pointed at them in her hand.

"Cough cough cough... who is it... cough cough..." There was a voice in the room, accompanied by a violent cough, and it seemed that he had coughed up something.

The old woman panicked when she heard the sound, she put down her stick and hurriedly walked into the room. Shuanglin frowned and followed her in.

Inside the room is the wife of the mother-in-law, lying on the bed with a clean face, her cheekbones protruding obviously, she looks thin, and there are some blood stains on the corners of her mouth, the mother-in-law went up to meet her with the sound of coughing up blood. She took out the veil from her arms and cleaned it up carefully for the wife. The two of them didn't speak, but with eye contact, the mother-in-law put two pillows on the head of the bed, helped the wife up, and leaned against the head of the bed.

"Ahem..." The old man coughed again, and finally stopped. He looked up at the two people at the door, and showed a smile. With that skinny face, it was actually a bit creepy. "I said she just made a fuss. We two people who have half of our bodies buried in the ground, what else can we ask for, don't mind."

The old man spoke a dialect, and Shuanglin could barely understand the general idea, "It's human nature, it's nothing, but we interrupted."

"The people in this village are dying, and those who survived are all gone, and everything you can take is taken away. I'm afraid it will be a waste of time to go in. Cough cough..." He coughed a few more times, "Now The village is full of monsters that eat people, you better not go in."

"Old man, you have misunderstood. We plan to stay permanently."

"Uh...cough cough cough cough..." The old man didn't seem to understand why Shuanglin had such an idea, and the old woman standing by the bed looked at Shuanglin and the two suspiciously while comforting her wife.

After all, he lived for most of his life and saw a lot of things. The old man didn't continue to ask the reason why Shuanglin and the two chose to stay in this deep mountain and old forest at such a young age. Regarding the recent situation of Fancun, after some kind advice, he fell asleep a little bit physically weak. After the mother-in-law helped his wife to lie down, she looked at the two people, and the guard in her eyes was much less.

The two came out of the house, followed the old man's words and continued to walk along the path. Li Taibai kept his head down, not looking around as curiously as before. Shuanglin vaguely knew the reason, and he hugged Xiaobai Come over and kiss him lightly on the forehead, "What's the matter, are you unhappy?"

Li Taibai was silent for a while, then raised his head to look at Shuanglin: "Grandpa is dying."

"Birth, old age, sickness and death are the norm in life. It is inevitable for people to die. This old man has calm eyes. He has long been detached from things and is not afraid of life and death."

"That's the way to hate it!" Li Taibai suddenly became excited, "What about that mother-in-law?" At this moment, he suddenly realized the difference between him and Shuanglin. Since he enlightened his spiritual wisdom and stepped into practice, his lifespan is endless, but Shuanglin's lifespan is only a short hundred years. He can't imagine how he will face the pain of losing Shuanglin after a hundred years. The world is so big that no one is tied to him.

Shuanglin didn't expect Xiaobai's reaction to be so strong, he stopped, and raised Li Taibai's drooping head, his big eyes that were always radiant in the past were full of water, this sad look in his eyes made him startled, Nervous, the goblin was so sentimental, he bowed his head and kissed his watery eyes, he couldn't laugh or cry, "Okay, okay, if you don't worry, let's take care of it more in the future."

Li Taibai lowered his eyes and didn't speak, another thing was on his mind.
