When AI intelligent people meet fierce gods

The red-and-coloured singers on the stage sang the wild and rough tune over and over again, and the grimaces painted on their faces looked more ferocious under the light.

The audience in the audience was immersed in a warm atmosphere, shouting and cheering at the top of their voices, gradually bringing out a kind of fanatical intoxication, which is not like ordinary theater listening.

Yi Qi silently mingled among the crowd, appearing extraordinarily calm amidst the inexplicable frenzy.

At this moment, the network neurons in his mind received a message from Li Guoqiang.

He tilted his head slightly, seemingly listening quietly, but he was actually connecting with his teammates in his mind.

[Protect yourself, I will go back as soon as possible. 】

While the surrounding villagers were all immersed in a numb frenzy, he moved his steps, quietly trying to withdraw from the crowd.

It's just that he had just retreated to the edge of the crowd and was about to leave when someone suddenly came over and grabbed the corner of his clothes.

"You are from outside, right?" A low-breathed voice sounded thinly.

The person holding the corner of Yiqi's clothes is a young man who looks young, about 20 years old.

The young man's body was extremely thin, not tall, with sunken cheeks and prominent cheekbones, and the skin on his face revealed an unhealthy bluish-white color.

At this time, the young man was very happy to drag him, his face was full of excitement, and he chattered familiarly: "I heard from the village head before that there are three outsiders in the village today, and they are still three netizens. Red anchor, so it's really you!"

Yi Qi paused as he was about to leave, and spoke to the young man calmly: "Do you know our Xiangxiang Zhengli three?"

"I know! I know!" The young man nodded again and again, like a fanboy chasing stars, "I often watch live broadcasts online, and the three of you all broke into the top four in the National Supernatural Live Broadcast Competition before."

"Especially you, the champion of this year's live broadcast competition! Your performance in the competition was so wonderful that I was fascinated! I didn't even expect that I could meet a real person this time, it's great!"

The young man who was sick and disfigured was happy to express himself, while talking, he danced and gestured.

He looked no different from an ordinary fan, but Yi Qi never let go of his guard, and just asked politely: "Excuse me, are you..."

The excited young man slapped his head, and then remembered to introduce himself: "I am the son of the coffin shop owner in this village. People in the same village like to call me Daddy Lao Li, so you can call me Xiao Li."

Yi Qi raised his brows imperceptibly: "So you are the groom, and we are going to attend your wedding..."

Before he could finish speaking, the young man who called himself Xiao Li became even more excited, blood flushed on his bluish-white face: "You're still coming to the wedding! That's great!"

"I like watching your live broadcast the most on the Internet. Several times I wanted to leave for Lujiang City, hoping to meet you by chance... It's a pity that I couldn't leave Xiaoli Village at that time, let alone visit the city where you live. "

The doubt in Yiqi's eyes was even worse, and he said calmly: "You can watch my live broadcast online, but you can't go out? Can't you go out of Xiaoli Village?"

Xiao Li sighed: "Even if we use the Internet, there are a few foreigners who help us to connect to it in the past ten years..."

Speaking of this, he seemed to suddenly realize that he had said too much, so he hurriedly shut his mouth with an annoyed expression on his face.

Foreigners helped the villagers of Xiaoli Village to contact the outside world, and it was at least ten years ago... Yi Qi was thoughtful.

He saw the annoyance on Xiao Li's face, so he changed the subject lightly, and continued the routine: "Congratulations on your upcoming marriage, is the bride from another village, or a native of Xiao Li Village?"

Xiao Li was still immersed in the annoyance of leaking his words, after hearing Yi Qi's question, he just twitched the corner of his mouth, and replied indifferently: "A woman from outside."

In his words and deeds, there is no trace of respect for the bride.

Yi Qi pretended to be curious, and asked, "Didn't you say that you never walked out of Xiaoli Village? How did you meet your new wife?"

Xiao Li waved his hands and said vaguely: "I have two distant cousins ​​with the same surname Li. They are both from our Li family village. They married to another village many years ago."

"One of the cousins ​​is more concerned about her natal family and often introduces partners to our villagers. She also relies on matchmaking to make money."

Speaking of this, Xiao Li was a little irritable in his words: "However, in recent years, my cousin suddenly stopped going back to her mother's house, and she stopped introducing women to the villagers. I don't know what's wrong?"

After listening to his words, Yi Qi's eyes gradually sank.

The cousin surnamed Li who married to another village...does it refer to the twin sisters they met--Li Lian and Li Mei?

She misses her natal family more, and always has unknown income... The cousin Xiao Li mentioned should be Li Mei who died three years ago.

This also explains why Xiao Li's cousin suddenly stopped coming in recent years, because she is no longer alive.

Thirty years ago, Xiaoli Village suffered a landslide and disappeared. Li Mei began to introduce women to the villagers to make money. Ten years ago, supernatural phenomena occurred frequently in the whole world. At the same time, a group of foreigners helped the "disappeared" Xiaoli Village to contact the outside world. Li Mei died suddenly three years ago, and there is no one in Xiaoli Village to match them up...

The timelines were connected together, and Yi Qi realized something from the clues, and his silver eyes became more and more gloomy.

Li Mei used money to matchmaker Xiaoli Village, introducing a partner... Is it really just an ordinary blind date?

He breathed a sigh of relief, and asked in a calm voice as much as possible: "Since no one introduced anyone to Xiao Li Village a few years ago, how did you and the bride meet? Where does she live now? I can see her." Her side?"

Xiao Li faltered and got up.

He didn't seem to want to lose face in front of his idol, but he didn't want to talk about this topic, so he could only unnaturally change the topic: "When you get married tomorrow, you will naturally see her."

Yi Qi narrowed his eyes: "The wedding is tomorrow?"

"Yeah!" Xiao Li nodded hurriedly, as if thinking of something again, he suddenly became happy again, and begged excitedly: "After you attend my wedding tomorrow, can you show me your face and attend my funeral?"

"Funeral... what?" Even Yi Qi couldn't help being shocked by this sudden turning point.

Xiao Li continued to introduce cheerfully: "My father passed away a few days ago, and the body was parked in the coffin shop before it rotted. While the village is preparing for the wedding tomorrow, we will hold a funeral to bury my father. You can finish drinking tomorrow After the wedding, don’t forget to go to the mourning hall for a glass of funeral wine.”

When he introduced Yiqi, his attitude was very relaxed, and there was no trace of sadness on his face.

Yiqi: "..."

He silently looked at Xiao Li.

This young man who always slipped his tongue looked as if it should be taken for granted.

It seems that in his world, whether it is the bride who is about to marry him or the dead father, they are just things that are not worth mentioning, and it is not even as emotional as facing the idol himself while chasing stars.

In Xiaoli Village, however, a family member who has just passed away has to hold a wedding in a hurry, and the wedding and funeral are held at the same time. This kind of very strange and ominous behavior is normal here, and it is a matter of course.

Everyone is a logical, as it should be.

But Yi Qi only felt it was weird.

None of the various human civilizations recorded in his mind would make his hair stand on end like this.

He stared deeply at the silly Xiao Li, and after a long time, he said, "Can you take me to see your father's corpse?"

The topic of the dead does not seem to be as taboo as the bride. After Yi Qi made the request, Xiao Li almost happily agreed.

He really is a very filial son!

Lao Li's body was lying in the middle of the coffin shop, stuffed into a heavy ebony coffin.

The surrounding mourning hall was solemn, and white wreaths were placed around the coffin. The face of the deceased in the coffin was stiff, and the face that was very similar to Xiao Li was glowing with a lifeless bluish white.

And just outside the mourning hall, just across the street, preparations for a lively wedding are in progress.The singers on the stage were still singing at the top of their voices, and the audience around them kept booing and applauding.

Red and white, wedding room and auditorium, extreme noise and extreme silence—everything in front of the contrast is too strong, even with an unreal touch.

Just like the Xiaoli Village they are in, it really exists, but it is not so real.

Seeing that Xiao Li, a filial son, had no intention of objecting, Yi Qi stretched out his hand cautiously, touched the pale cheek of the deceased with his fingertips, and slowly slid down.

After sliding all the way to the corpse's throat, Yi Qi opened his mouth and asked again: "You just said...your father died a few days ago?"

There was no sadness on Xiao Li's face, and he even smiled brightly at his idol in front of his father's corpse: "Of course!"

Yi Qi said lightly: "So, this is very strange..."

"According to the various physical characteristics of the deceased, why is it more like...a corpse that has been dead for many years?"

"According to conservative estimates, he has been dead for at least 30 years."

"And the dead man's throat was filled with sand, much like a landslide victim."

When he said these conclusions, his eyes were fixed on Xiao Li.

Xiao Li's expression changed suddenly, and he opened his mouth just as he was about to say something...

Then before he could speak, his frail body suddenly trembled, his facial features twisted together as if he had been shocked by an electric shock, his eyes rolled white, and his limbs twitched unconsciously.

Facing his anomaly, Yiqi immediately became vigilant.

But after only a short moment, Xiao Li suddenly stood up straight, and his facial features instantly returned to their original state.

But the silly expression on his face became calm and stable, and his gestures were graceful, as if he was a different person.

"Xiao Li" looked at Yi Qi, with a reserved smile on his face: "Hello!"

"Finally, we meet again."
