Chapter 3 The Lost Barren Village

"Please……"

A hint of coolness penetrated the originally airtight junction, pulling back Guan Yuzhou's sense of being at a loss due to astonishment.

He has a lot to say, he wants to tell Xia Zhuo that he will not harm him, he wants to tell Xia Zhuo that he must be safe.But when the person in his arms really begged and resisted until he trembled all over, he couldn't say anything.

He frowned, as if a little impatient, as if he was dissatisfied with the young man's ignorance of current affairs at this time.But even if the other party grabbed his neck, Guan Yuzhou's arm did not relax, and he dragged Xia Zhuo around to the front of the car.

Amidst the intermittent begging, the little devil rolled off the seat, splashing a splash of water that was originally on the ground.It shook its head left and right, leaving a series of eye-catching red marks wherever it went, and slowly approached the two of them tentatively again.

If it was normal, he might use it to collect points that were not necessary, or to pass the time.But in this situation, he is not so patient.

So Guan Yuzhou looked at it coldly, and ordered: "Say it again, get out of this car immediately."

[Then can you take me to my family? ]

The little ghost was raising his face, restraining his fierce look, like a naive child looking for something, he wanted to find some answers from the two strangers in front of him.

Guan Yuzhou suddenly raised his foot and kicked it. When he stepped on a soft object, the cold and slippery touch wrapped around his ankle.He reacted quickly and kicked his leg hard towards the rusty iron pillar beside him.

The water splashed in the air, and a little fishy smell burst into the damaged seat, making a little messy sound.The moment he saw the little ghost let go, he kicked it out of the window again.

"No."

His voice was not loud, but it seemed that he was suppressing some anger.The wheels pressed against the bumps, and the bumps made the incomplete suspension rings on the head crackle from side to side, as if the whole car was trembling because of him.

The darkness faded, and the surrounding environment brightened in an instant.The noise reverberating in my ears was more than half weakened, and the bus with only the torso left drove out of the tunnel, passing the dilapidated "Duhui Village" signboard without looking back.On Guan Yuzhou's ankle, there was a crimson handprint, like the slogan "Come here" engraved in commemoration.

Xia Zhuo, who gradually calmed down, lost her voice, and the light meter lit up with a halo, and the words of the last reminder in the dream appeared.

[Initial Guidelines 1-4. Please let the weather clear.

At the end of the guide, participants are asked to explore the rules on their own.

I wish you a successful survival. 】

Tips:

(The prompt will disappear after 10s)

Guan Yuzhou relaxed the strength in his hands a little, and before he could open his mouth to comfort Xia Zhuo, the other party pushed him away, grabbed the nearest handrail with a white face, bent down and vomited again.

This vomit seemed to spit out all his internal organs at the same time, his eyes were sore, and at the same time, his feet almost went limp and fell into the small puddle of stagnant water mixed with acid water.

Guan Yuzhou frowned fiercely, then let go of it quickly.He stood quietly and looked at the young man. He didn't reach out to pat the other person on the back, and he didn't say any unnecessary words, like a spectator with cold eyes, restraining all the gloomy expressions very appropriately.

Not long after, the car slowly stopped at the edge of the field beside the road.The yellow fields were lifeless, and clumps of drowned plants floated in the muddy water.

Xia Zhuo stood up with soft legs, his lips were abnormally red, and he briefly summed up the stress reaction just now: "I'm sorry, I'm a little motion sick, especially this kind of shaking."

"Hmm." Guan Yuzhou didn't ask any more questions.He walked around Xia Zhuo whose eyes were red, took back his coat, and walked to the door, leaving only the back of his head: "Come down when you feel better, we've arrived at the station."

Xia Zhuo looked at him stepping out of the car with his legs straight, his back was straight and he didn't look like he had just greeted a ghost, he couldn't help moving his lips, and asked suspiciously on the iron steps: "Why did you save me? ?”

Guan Yuzhou stood on the side of the road and explained lightly: "I rarely dream, and I lack a companion."

Xia Zhuo's face was very bad, but there was still a smile on the corner of his mouth, "You have brains and eyes, didn't you see that I have already maxed out my slowing skills? You are a fool to believe this reason."

Human life is at stake, who looking for a companion will find someone who will only cause trouble?Xia Zhuo felt that he was very smart, especially in the situation where Guan Yuzhou did not refute, he became more and more convinced that this person was talking nonsense and must have other intentions.

Although the air in the deep mountains and old forests is much cleaner than that in the city, the continuous rain and the smell of corruption around make the satisfaction plummet.

When he walked along the path to the scattered villages in the distance, Guan Yuzhou hesitated for a moment, but still raised his heels a few meters away, maintaining a distance that was not far or close.

"What are you doing with me? I didn't ask you to save me just now, and I don't have anything on me. I can give you no reward." After the two of them walked about ten meters without saying a word, Xia Zhuo was standing in a dead plant. Looking back beside the black weeds, half of my foot has already stepped into the muddy water.He didn't care about more stains on his body, and with the face that had been rubbed with muddy water and turned into a little cat, he laughed and said: "I said, you are not looking for a companion, so it is possible that you are looking for me gone?"

Guan Yuzhou raised his eyelids, and said lightly: "There is only one road, who stipulated that you are only allowed to walk?"

Seeing his stiff face, Xia Zhuo couldn't help laughing, raised his hand to touch his withered stomach, and the topic jumped quickly: "Then do you have anything to eat? I'm hungry."

I just pissed someone off, but now I can still take advantage of it with peace of mind.Guan Yuzhou didn't know if he was laughed angrily: "Didn't you say you don't want me?"

Xia Zhuo couldn't believe it: "How can this be called begging!"

"...What's that called?"

"I'm giving you a chance." Xia Zhuo took a small packet of jujube-flavored compressed biscuits from him, and smiled brightly while tearing off the packaging: "So you can continue to follow me?"

Guan Yuzhou really wanted to say the phrase "I've never seen such a brazen person", but when he saw Xia Zhuo's cheeks bulging and chewing, his heart softened again: "I don't know what you did in the car just now But you'd better endure it as long as you can. Everyone here can't be trusted, don't show your weakness to strangers."

The corners of Xia Zhuochi's mouth were covered with crumbs, and he commented vaguely: "You are really long-winded and annoying. Besides, I haven't seen anyone other than you. If you The next person you meet will tell me the same thing, should I also listen and stay away from you?"

Guan Yuzhou: "..."

He didn't know why Xia Zhuo was still holding the things he gave him in his hand, yet he could still say such ungrateful words.

"Sure enough, I have been hungry for a long time. I thought I was terminally ill." After eating something, Xia Zhuo's restless stomach finally gradually subsided.

The drizzle continued to smear the muddy water on his face, leaving a shallow stain on his neckline.He didn't know whether the food was scarce or not, so when the small palm-sized bag was still half in stock, Xia Zhuo raised his hand and handed back the biscuit with saliva on it, "here, I left it for you point."

Guan Yuzhou took it, deliberately avoiding Xia Zhuo's fingertips, and stuffed the ravaged things back into his jacket pocket.

Seeing that the Y_U|.X-~I he received was natural, Xia Zhuo speculated in his heart that the food should indeed be quite precious.After making a note in his heart, he said shamelessly: "If you take my things, you have to protect me."

Guan Yuzhou didn't refute when he heard the words, his amiable appearance seemed to have been brainwashed by Xia Zhuo's unreasonableness in a short period of time and led to distorted ideas.

It's really like a soft persimmon that is easy to handle.Xia Zhuo flicked the broken hair sticking to his eyelids a few times, and continued to take the lead along the path.His physical discomfort has also been reduced by half, and he has now reached the most comfortable period after waking up.

I don't know if it's because of the bad weather, but the village in front of me is hazy and desolate. Not only is there no cooking smoke, but there is no one to be seen outside in broad daylight, and even the naughty and playful children at a young age are nowhere to be seen.

But Xia Zhuo thought about it again, if the children here are like the infiltrating little ghosts that appeared in the car just now, then it is better for them not to go out to play.

There are not many houses in the village, and it looks more like it has been uninhabited for a long time from a distance.The walls of the courtyard are dilapidated, with some collapsed and loopholes. Two or three logs are placed across the front of some courtyards, as if to warn others to stop here, and the red paint of different shades seems to ward off something evil.

There are obviously chicken coops and pig pens, but there are no poultry of any kind. The troughs used for feeding are filled with water, which overflows outside as the rain falls, and one or two of them are still floating. A dead mouse with its head up and its buttocks soaked until its hair turns white.

Just when Xia Zhuo thought they were taken to a deserted village where no one had been stationed for a long time, three well-dressed young people suddenly appeared in his sight.

The two men and one woman have different looks, but they should be in the same group.Among them, the man with a cropped head had picked up a plastic board from nowhere, and was raising his arm to shield the woman standing in the middle from the rain.They were coming towards the two of them, and when they saw the person, their whispering mouths immediately closed tightly, and the meaning of looking at the person was undisguised.

The woman has two exaggerated metal rings hanging from her ears. She is wearing a crop top and hip jeans. The high heels are being held by another young man with dyed chestnut hair. She is stepping on a pair of oversized sneakers that do not fit well. inside.

Although her expression was not arrogant, the appearance of standing on a slightly higher slope but still raising her chin made Xia Zhuo look a little uncomfortable, as if she was waiting for him and Guan Yuzhou to ask for some information.

In terms of beauty, she is indeed a beauty. Although the makeup is blurred by the water, the good figure that does not hide much does reveal a lot of capital, and the one-on-two configuration is not surprising.

Guan Yuzhou was still thinking about finding a place to shelter from the rain first, so he didn't linger on this group of people for a second, and went in the opposite direction, "Go to another place, there should be people living here."

Xia Zhuo snorted, and Mo followed her face, "How can you tell that there are people? This kind of place is difficult to enter and difficult to exit. If I had, I would have moved out long ago."

Guan Yuzhou said: "Don't compare the setting here with reality."

Dreams are all bizarre, there is no Newton's law, and there is no three views at all.

"Hey—" Before Xia Zhuo could make a statement, there was a voice calling for a stop behind him.Bancun saw that these two people saw them as if they were in the air, and couldn't help but shouted first: "You are too slow, we have already visited the village, and there is only one family left in it. The villagers are out of their minds and won't open the door for you at all!"

Guan Yuzhou turned his head slightly, thanked him for the reminder, and then continued to walk forward.

Bancun let out a hey on the spot.

I don't know what the girl with the hips stood on tiptoe and said in his ear. His eyes kept scanning the two of them, and finally stopped on Guan Yuzhou, who looked tall and strong. Although his expression was slightly unhappy, he still opened his eyes. Mouth: "Would you like to come with us? Our points are enough to exchange for common supplies."

Guan Yuzhou didn't respond to his invitation, but asked from a long distance: "Is there anything else? It's okay, let's go first."

Xia Zhuo was happy when he heard the words.

His impression of Guan Yuzhou's soft persimmon changed a little. After seeing the slightly distorted face of the girl with a buttocks, he turned around and smiled and said, "She obviously wanted to pull you over. I thought you were gentle and considerate, caring for beauty, and caring for beautiful women." The type added."

After hearing his long list of modifiers, the corners of Guan Yuzhou's lips could not help but bend slightly: "I don't think I am, so you are disappointed?"

Xia Zhuo spread her hands: "Why am I disappointed? People are beautiful, but they can only be used for appreciation. She is not my type."

At first glance, these houses seem to have been abandoned for a long time, but many small details can show traces of people's lives.

For example, the small benches under the dilapidated eaves, the locks hung upside down on the wall that have not rusted much, the wooden barrels placed next to the well, and the window grilles that have faded from the wind and rain for a long time.

A brand-new white memorial couplet was pasted on the closed wooden door, indicating that this family had just died not long ago.After walking around half a circle, there are only traces of people coming in and out of this store recently.Guan Yuzhou motioned him to step back, raised his hand and knocked on the door in front of him lightly.

"Hey." During the waiting time, Xia Zhuo crossed his arms and asked him: "How many people can enter a dream?"

"I can't say for sure, it depends on the scale of the dream. There are as few as three or four people, and as many as ten or twenty."

Xia Zhuo was thoughtful: "That is to say, besides the three just now, maybe there are other people here?"

"Yeah." Guan Yuzhou nodded. Seeing that there was no movement inside the door, he knocked three times with a little force on his hand, "Most people will be careful not to let other people approach, like the one who wanted to pull you along. Most of them are plotting against the law, and there is no need to deal with it if you encounter it."

Xia Zhuo caught his last sentence and asked with a playful smile: "Are you admitting that you plotted against me?"

Guan Yuzhou looked up at him, with a calm face: "Didn't you say that I will draw your body."

Xia Zhuo was really amused by his serious appearance this time: "Hahaha! I didn't say that, I said you were trying to trick me, you're not asking yourself." He didn't wait to laugh After finishing, some black dots floated in front of his eyes, and the head criminal was dizzy to the point of being light-headed.He could only hold back his smile for a moment, rubbed his head with some displeasure, and muttered in a low voice: "Is there no one here? Why hasn't the door been opened for so long?"

Guan Yuzhou took his every move into his eyes, and withdrew from the door in two or three steps, raising his hand to try the temperature on his forehead.But that hand seemed to be attached to an invisible wall, paused in mid-air, then retracted silently, asking indifferently: "Cold?"

From the dream to the present, Xia Zhuo has been used to this kind of periodic physical discomfort.He slowed down for a moment, until the dizziness subsided, and then replied indifferently: "Maybe." When he said this, he intended to look at Guan Yuzhou, but his eyes passed Guan Yuzhou's ears uncontrollably Somewhere behind him, with a slightly strange expression.

Guan Yuzhou didn't look back, but just mouthed what's wrong.

The focus of Xia Zhuo's pupils shifted back to him a little bit: "There is a little guy sitting on the wall and looking at you."
