The facial expressions and body movements of these people who suddenly appeared in Fengmen Village were all the same stiff, as if they were moving forward step by step according to the already set track, while Lao Li's face showed a sense of helplessness struggling And fear, it is this kind of fear that makes him stand out in the crowd. If you want to use an analogy, it is probably the difference between a machine and a living person.

Guo Xuan gently turned the copper coins in his hands, and said to Sun Xiangdi, "That's not a living person, it's just a soul trapped in another corpse."

Sun Xiangdi was startled when he heard the words: "Don't...other corpses?"

Guo Xuan nodded to him, "Since the three temples are broken, this place has become a corpse breeding ground, and there is no way anyone in it will be alive..." He said, looking at the brightly lit houses not far away, "It's just not Know whether those soul puppets are made by them, or they are themselves."

Lezheng Li wondered: "Since they are already corpses, why do they have to come out to work in the middle of the night?" Could it be that the working people love to work, and even after death they are concerned about the harvest in the soil?

"It's not the middle of the night, it's already morning." Yin Ranyi said suddenly, seeing that everyone except Guo Xuan looked at him blankly, he coughed lightly, "For them, this is morning."

This "they" naturally refers to this group of "corpses". Lezheng Li stared blankly at the villagers who passed by them without any response, and soon understood Yin Ranyi's meaning: "You mean ...The time in Fengmen Village is different from the normal time? Should it be faster?"

Yin Ranyi nodded.

Lezheng carp has recovered a bit. If the time in Fengmen Village flows faster than the outside world, then many questions can be answered. When Sun Xiangdi came before, the grass and trees in the village were withered like deep winter. After half a month Well, Fengmen Village has gone through winter and spring and entered summer. They are probably stepping on the tail of summer today, so the grass and trees withered in the evening. This is the time when summer turns into autumn.

It's just... He blinked his eyes in doubt, why did he feel as if he had encountered such a thing before?

On the other end, Sun Xiangdi couldn't bear to look at the stiff-faced old Li, so he asked Guo Xuan in a low voice: "Mr. Guo, my teammate...is this the only way?"

Guo Xuan saw more life and death, and nodded with a bit of inhuman coldness: "Unless he finds a replacement."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone thought of the photo of the pond under the bed. Could it be that the water ghost dragged people?

Guo Xuan paused for a moment, and then said: "I think there is a cycle... or a specific time, so there was only one person who had an accident last time, but I don't know if this time is fixed at the closed door. When the village 'enters winter', let's wait for a while and watch the changes."

People come and go in Fengmen Village shrouded in the night, but it is eerily quiet. A group of villagers walked along the small road in the village carrying farm tools expressionlessly. The scene of the dusty stone road did not last long, and soon Yin Ranyi and others saw the villagers returning along the same road, as if they had finished their "daytime" work and were going home to rest.

Everyone just wanted to wait for these villagers to retreat, and then go to see where they emerged from, but before they turned off the lights, a woman ran out from an alley and grabbed a passerby. , and shouted loudly: "Where's my little sister? Where's my little sister?"

Her spirit seemed to be exhausted to the extreme, and her voice was a little hoarse, and the passerby who was pulled by her seemed to be following the script set before, with no fluctuations in her voice: "Dead."

The woman was so startled by his words that she let go and fell to the ground, "Dead? Dead?"

The passer-by who was grabbed by his collar before did not respond, and just walked forward with a hoe on his shoulders, but a few villagers passing by next to him comforted him: "If you die, you will die, but you are just a girl. "

"Yes, what a pity."

The woman looked up at the surrounding villagers, she couldn't express any expression on her face, she opened her mouth slightly and said nothing, but her eyes were filled with tears, like water overflowing from a deep ancient well, gliding past her eyes one after another cheek.

Amidst the villagers' whispered words of comfort, the woman stood up slowly with one hand on her hands. She no longer cried, and seemed to have completely accepted the persuasion of the people around her that "it's just a girl, and death is no big deal". Walking towards the village with firm steps, the surrounding villagers also dispersed, and the lights in Fengmen Village were all extinguished soon.

Everyone looked at the scene in front of them like a stage play, with beads of sweat on their backs, Guo Xuan asked everyone: "Do you still have the kit I gave you earlier?"

Seeing everyone nodding their heads in unison, Guo Xuan said, "It's ready, let's go and have a look." After saying that, he lifted his feet and left, and the young people hurriedly carried their bags on their backs, and tightly packed the little red bag. Holding the kit tightly in his hand, he followed.

They were careful not to touch the grass and plants in the village all the way, so they walked around the village a few times, and they actually met that woman again, but because the other party was standing by the pond, and at this moment by the pond Most of the grass and trees were dry, so they didn't dare to approach at will, for fear of making any noise that would disturb the other party.

By the dimly lit pond, the woman seemed to be pressing something into the pond. Everyone could only hear the splashing of the pond water, but couldn't see what it was. No, he really wanted to run up close to see what the woman was pressing down on, even a little bit.

Yin Ranyi scratched his palm, and when people looked at him, he said solemnly: "It's that old Li."

Hearing this, Sun Xiangdi exclaimed: "Old...!" Before the word "Li" came out of his mouth, he covered his mouth, the expression on his face was very complicated, he still couldn't do what Guo Xuan said. Lao Li regarded it as a soul attached to someone else's corpse, and his first reaction was to rush over to rescue him, but luckily reason stopped him at the last second.

The emotions in Le Zhengli's heart were more complicated than those of others, because when Yin Ranyi said that name, a thought suddenly popped up in his mind, he knew why that "Old Li" was killed, because He...or the corpse he possessed killed the "little sister" that the woman called.

Is it because I make up too many stories so I diverge my thinking?Le Zhengli thought this way, but felt that something was wrong. There seemed to be a voice in his head telling himself that this thought was right, and it was the truth of the matter.

In just a few seconds while his thoughts were spinning, "Old Li" had completely lost his strength. The woman stood up, gasping for breath and kicking her into the water as if she couldn't understand her hatred. At the beginning, she could still see two The hand struggled on the pool, but after a while, the hands disappeared completely, and the pond returned to silence.
