But before he could ask anything, only ten seconds after the death of the elephant-headed monster, the second crisis in this dream appeared.
It is those strange trees in front of the prison gate.
When they first came out, they looked like normal dead trees, but suddenly they slowly swayed with the breeze.
The atmosphere of what the two were going to say was immediately interrupted, and their eyes couldn't help being attracted to them,
The environment was extremely quiet, except for the slight sound of the wind.
The next moment, the wind suddenly became stronger, and the dead branches that were originally vertically extended instantly, like a pair of claws, coming straight towards the two of them from all directions.
Yan Su and Xu Hanxing hadn't walked very far at this moment, they had just left the cell building about three to five meters away, and hurried back to the door upon seeing this.
"call--"
In an instant, several whip-like branches swung past where they were standing just now, making the sound of wind like sharp blades.
Yan Su had no doubt that if the two were still standing there at this moment, their heads would have been smashed by the hard dead branch.
"It seems that this is the second crisis." Yan Su said.
He turned his head and glanced at Xu Hanxing again.I found that his expression was also quite dignified.Both knew what that meant.If all the dead trees on the ground outside stretched out their branches to attack like this, they would be equivalent to being trapped in place.
Of course, even if you can go out and walk around at will, there are likely to be other dangers hidden in the wilderness outside.
But if you can't even get out like this, people have to guess that the third crisis may be hidden in the house behind.
Yan Su thought of this in an instant, and the dead tree, which was missed by one hit, had already retracted and shook a few times, as if preparing for the next attack.
This time, both of them stood close to the door. Yan Su wanted to see if he was outside the dead tree's attack range if he just stood in front of the door, but obviously not.
Those branches soon came straight to the building with the sound of breaking through the air again.
It's fortunate that they didn't close the door when they first came out.
Yan Su opened the half-covered rusty iron door, and the two quickly returned to the door.
Then the next second the door was closed.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" The branch hit the door, making a dense and loud noise.
Yan Su turned his head and found that the heavy door, close to their heads, was even slightly dented by the blow, showing how strong the branches were.
The two leaned against the door, silent for a while, not knowing what to do for a while.
Apparently Xu Hanxing also thought that there might still be danger in the house, so he didn't propose to go in to avoid it.
But now that he was in a nightmare of mortal death, it wasn't that if they didn't get close, the crisis wouldn't come.
"Hiss..." Yan Su soon heard the sound of rustling and friction coming from a place far behind the corner of the corridor.
In fact, this building looks like a very regular rectangle from the outside. The gate is on the edge of the long side of the rectangle. After entering the gate, through a short corridor, you will come to the front of the three parallel cells, and the innermost cell The only one is the operating room that is suspected to be used for murder, and there are no more rooms in it.
Yansu and Xu Hanxing have all walked through these areas, and there is no one else hiding in them, so the only one who can make a sound is probably the dead elephant-headed man.
"He has no head, can he be resurrected?" Yan Su and Xu Hanxing looked at each other, and both of them revealed this question in their eyes.
It can only be said that it is worthy of being a monster capable of burying people in mudslides, and the mere headless corpse is not so excessive in comparison.
Just a few seconds later, heavy footsteps came from the place where the sound came from.
It seemed that the headless corpse was slowly patrolling, looking for people everywhere.
Yan Su frowned, he wanted to do the same ambush at the corner of the corridor again, but the mace was too heavy, and he threw it in the operating table hall when it was used up.
And if there were no accidents this time, the elephant-headed man should have lost his elephant head, so why should Yansu beat it?
I always feel like I have to think of another way...
Just thinking about it, Yan Su felt Xu Hanxing gently tug on the corner of his clothes.
"Huh?" Yan Su looked at him.
Xu Hanxing tilted his head and nodded outside the door.
"Hit the elephant-headed man with a branch?" Yan Su immediately understood what he meant.
In fact, Yan Su usually stays at home and often plays video games. In the game, if he encounters such a situation where he is attacked from both sides, it is very common to lure one of them out and use the other to fight the former. .
But that has a prerequisite, that is, there is no damage immunity between the two opponents, that is, they must have a friendly relationship.
It's hard to say whether the monsters and dryads in this world belong to the friendly relationship, but there is no better way at present, so it's worth trying.
Yan Su then nodded at him.
The two didn't speak during the whole process, but there seemed to be a tacit understanding, and they found their own division of labor in an instant.
Xu Hanxing gave Yansu a look, indicating that he was ready.
Yan Su stretched out his hand lightly and turned the door lock, and there was a crisp "click" in the silent environment.
The elephant-headed man at the back of the corridor paused, then obviously stopped his slow search, and then walked towards the two at a faster pace.
Soon, the elephant-headed man turned the corner facing the gate.
Yan Su saw the body of a headless man standing in the dim light holding a pair of surgical forceps that he probably found casually.The sturdy body casts a long shadow on the ground.
"Squealing—" Yan Su pushed open the iron gate at this moment, and then stepped out first, but instead of running away immediately, he dodged to get behind the gate.
Needless to say, Xu Hanxing also escaped in the next moment, and at this moment, the elephant-headed man, who should be called the headless man now, strode forward and chased after him.
Xu Hanxing didn't look back for Yansu, but rushed straight into the withered forest that seemed to be stretched out with claws.
The headless man quickly chased after only two seconds. He found that the two people at the door had turned into one person, but he didn't pay much attention to it, and followed Xu Hanxing, who was the only one running ahead.
His legs were thick and long, one step pushed Xu Hanxing two steps, the two chased and ran, and quickly entered the attack trigger range of the dead tree.
And Yan Su was not idle at the moment, after the headless man went out, he quickly entered the building again, he was going to get the mace, in case the dead tree couldn't hurt the headless man, he could use it to repair the knife.
In just a few seconds, he returned to the hall. Fortunately, the mace was still in place. Yan Su reflected on himself for a while, and felt that he should not throw away the weapon just because he was invincible. What the headman touched was not surgical forceps, but this big stick...
It seems that there will be no serious consequences. At most, Yan Su will have to find a new blunt weapon when he comes back.The most important thing is that it is a waste of time. If he had the weapon in his hand just now, he could actually sneak attack again directly behind the corner.
Yan Su quickly returned to the gate with the stick in his hand.
At this time, only ten seconds had passed since he entered the house, and Xu Hanxing had just taken the headless man around the woods.
The dead trees lived up to expectations, stretched out their long branches again, and lashed at the two of them viciously.
Yan Su found that he was a little nervous in vain, obviously this was just a realistic nightmare, it didn't matter how many times he died, and he couldn't feel pain, he wouldn't get hurt, it was like playing a simulation game .
But Xu Hanxing was injured at this time, and as he ran fast, more blood gradually oozes from his clothes.
Since the coat is black, the bloodstains are not really visible, but Yan Su's eyes are better than humans, and he can catch several wet spots on his clothes from a distance, and the collar of the coat and the white shirt underneath are also there. Gradually stained with blood red.
"Come quickly—" Yan Su stood at the door, raised his unarmed left hand, palm up, and stretched it out towards him.
The speed that Xu Hanxing was about to slow down was suddenly mentioned inexplicably.
He tried his best to lower his head slightly while running, and with the sharp sound of breaking through the air, several thick branches passed over his head—unfortunately, they didn't all hit the back of his head.
Xu Hanxing still didn't dodge completely, his back was hit hard like a whip, and he immediately staggered forward for a while, and then threw himself on the ground.
Yan Su took a few steps forward to catch him, half dragging and half hugging him back to the door, narrowly dodging another wave of attacks.
What is regrettable is that the headless man runs among the waving branches and leaves.
Those branches don't hit it at all.
Yansu had no choice but to turn around to face it, and weighed the mace in his hand. The headless man arrived in front of him in a split second. Yansu swung the stick and hit it on the leg this time. However, this time Human leg bones are thick and hard, not as easy to beat as that elephant head.
The force returned from the shock almost dislocated Yan Su's arm joints. Yan Su once again doubted himself for a short while, as if he shouldn't complain about Xu Hanxing's physical fitness. Obviously, the human shell he pinched is just as weak.
He took a step back and stepped on the door frame with his heels. Behind the door lay Xu Hanxing who was seriously injured and had just been stuffed into the room by him.
And the headless man was knocked on the leg, and he only retreated slightly, and rushed up again the next moment.
Yan Su had just repaired his joints, so he was impatient for a while, this time he didn't use a weapon, he just raised his fingers flat.
The headless man is headless, and Yan Su is actually not sure if it will be controlled by spiritual power. Fortunately, this is a dream after all, and everything in the dream is probably composed of spiritual power.
The headless man froze for a moment, then quickly backed up a few steps as if he had been hit hard, and then the surgical forceps in his hand flew out.
Yan Su didn't want to waste too much energy, so he retreated into the door and locked it.
"I don't know if this door can stop him," Yan Su thought, frowning.
The next moment, a loud bang was heard, and the headless man rushed over and slammed into the door. A deformed protrusion that was heavier than the whipping of a tree branch emerged from the inside of the iron door.
It seems that there should be no breakthrough in a short period of time, but Yan Su suddenly thought of another thing:
"It seems to have a key."
After hearing his helpless sigh, Xu Hanxing, who had been propped on the ground to ease his injuries, turned around and stretched out his hand. Yan Su saw that lying in his hand was the keychain that the headless man had carried in his pocket.
"Huh? When did you get it?" Yan Su was surprised.
"Before you knocked off his head." Xu Hanxing panted lightly.
Yan Su also had to admire this time.
The situation appears to have stabilized for the time being.
"But with such a result, can it be regarded as successfully passing the third crisis?" Yan Su muttered.
Didn't kill the headless man, just locked it outside, maybe a bug can be stuck, making the turntable think that Xu Hanxing is still being hunted down by the third wave of crisis?
Thinking of Xu Hanxing, Yan Su thought of turning his head to look at his injuries.
I saw that the ground was full of blood at this time, all dripping from Xu Hanxing's back. Although he was facing Yan Su from the side, Yan Su could see from his close-body perception that there were deep and terrifying scars on his bones. Not just three.
Suddenly a new idea popped up in his mind.
"If he didn't die from a crushed skull, would the monster controlling the turntable feel offended and come forward to correct it? What's more, is it possible for the curse of the turntable to be broken directly?" Yan Su pondered.
"I, I tried it, it won't work." Xu Hanxing guessed what he was thinking again, leaned against the wall weakly, and replied.
"Okay." Yan Su had no choice but to say.
The headless man outside the door wanted to come in and kill someone because he didn't have a key, so he kept banging on the door. The iron door was gradually deformed after several times, and it seemed that it didn't last as long as they imagined.
Still have to continue to think of new ways to hold him back.
"Let's go to the cell," Yan Su suggested.
"The railings of the cell are also very strong, and they should last for a while." Xu Hanxing said at the same time.
The two looked at each other, and found that they wanted to go together. Yan Su remembered that when he was locked in the fence before, he saw that the iron bars were indeed extraordinarily thick.
But if it is more resistant than the iron gate, it is probably impossible, but there is no other way out at present. This building has no windows, the only entrance is the gate, and there is also an exhaust fan the size of a palm. Above the corner of the hall wall of the station, the size cannot be surpassed at all.
Now there is a headless man at the door, and there is a dead tree spirit outside the door, and the two of them have no more ideas, so they can only temporarily find a way to delay and prolong their survival time.
They quickly returned to the cell where Xu Hanxing was before, locked the cell door with a key after entering, and picked up the iron chain that tied Xu Hanxing before, and wrapped it tightly around the railing at the door lock.
After finishing these, Yan Su sat by the bed, waiting helplessly.Xu Hanxing didn't sit down, but stood by the wall not far from him, rubbing his forehead.
The feeling of waiting to die is really uncomfortable, and I don't know how many times Xu Hanxing has experienced it, and whether he has noticed the key to breaking the game.
Yan Su thought for a while, and decided to take advantage of the rare time to talk, to talk to him about his current thinking, and try to analyze:
"In the two dreams we have experienced together so far, I did find some commonalities. First, there will be animal heads and human bodies in each dream.
But low-level monsters without special abilities are completely different from monsters that exist in reality, which is a bit strange; the second is the outdoor environment. It seems that the two illusions are located at the foot of the same barren mountain. I don’t know about other dreams you have experienced before. Is it the same on these two points? "
"Hmm..." Xu Hanxing hesitated for a while, then replied, "These two points are indeed common to all scenes, but..."
"Ok?"
"But I'm not sure if I can find a solution to the turntable in it, because, you know, it's my dream."
Yan Su keenly noticed that Xu Hanxing said "my dream" instead of "our dream".
Xu Hanxing sighed: "The scenes in these dreams are actually related to my memory. Many buildings are what I remember, and the barren hills are the places where I lived when I was a child. Other people's dreams should also be based on They are in their own minds, so I am not sure if this can be used as effective information to provide clues for customs clearance."
So that was the case, Yan Su frowned again.
After the two of them said these few words, the headless man outside had already broken through the gate. With heavy footsteps, it quickly came to the iron fence, and then found the two people in the house, and it immediately turned its direction. , Shake the railing vigorously.
Its body was already broken and bloody due to the madness that hit the door before, and it was extremely shocking.
Fortunately, the railings are actually very strong. Under the huge force of the headless monster, they only sway slightly, and at most, a little sand and dust will fall from the cement ceiling.
"It seems to be able to prevent it." Yan Su said helplessly.
But in fact, the current situation is still not optimistic.
Even if the headless man can't get in for a lifetime, can the two of them live in this cell forever?
Especially this turntable monster is so unreasonable, maybe a meteorite will fall from the sky in the next moment, and the house and people will be smashed together.
Just as he was thinking, Yan Su heard something falling out of the headless man's pocket.
He had a bad premonition for a moment.
Sure enough, the moment the thing was dropped on the ground, he heard Xu Hanxing suddenly groan in pain.
When he turned his head, he saw Xu Hanxing clutching his forehead and slowly squatting on the ground against the wall, "What's wrong?" Yan Su asked, suddenly belatedly noticed that Xu Hanxing seemed to have been rubbing his head since just now .
At this moment, Xu Hanxing's head was already covered with cold sweat, and he couldn't speak for a while. After a long time, he gasped again, and said:
"Yes, there is something..." He quickly fell to his knees and curled up into a ball.
"What?" Yan Su was surprised, knelt down and put his hands on top of his head, trying to put the tentacles of mental power in.
As a result, the next moment, I suddenly discovered that in Xu Hanxing's brain, for some reason, there was a bug-like thing crawling - it probably was just dormant on the brain, but after the small box on the headless man fell, it disappeared. Start to drill hard under the skin.
"When was it put in? Before we woke up?" Yan Su was astonished.
He felt it in his head, and sure enough there was one, but he couldn't feel the pain, and he hadn't noticed it before.
But this is too foul.
The mudslides can be regarded as taking advantage of the natural characteristics of the environment, at least for a reason.
But is this thing too strange?Is it really in order to achieve the goal of the curse, completely ignoring logic?
Yan Su was speechless, and Xu Hanxing clenched his hands tightly, and then when he heard the headless man smashing the fence angrily, he accidentally stepped on the small box that seemed to be used to control insects.
"what--"
.
Yan Su woke up from reality again.
"Uh..." This time he couldn't help but glanced at the turntable on the coffee table, with a bad expression on his face.
After trying twice, I didn't find any serious clues, but I realized the unreasonable nature of this monster.
Yan Su was actually a bit tired from playing, he decided to try one last time, if he still couldn't find a formal way to subdue it, he was going to consider destroying it directly.
If one shopping mall is destroyed, there will be tens of thousands of shopping malls re-established. Yan Su is not so afraid of making a big fuss.And he was willing to try again, mainly because Xu Hanxing had just learned that these nightmares were made up of his memories, Yan Su suddenly wanted to see what else would appear in his dreams.
Another few seconds of turntable time.
This time he landed in the cell named "Hanged".
When the sight was restored, Yan Su found himself sitting in a small wooden hut, surrounded by dirty and dilapidated, like a woodshed.
This time Xu Hanxing was also leaning against another corner of the room. The injuries on his back were healed after the dream reset, but those caused by the turntable were still there.At this time, the whole person was leaning against the corner of the wall, his upper body drooping powerlessly, and he hadn't woken up yet.
But this time it was just a straw rope that tied the two of them together.
Yan Su easily untied him, this time he didn't wake up Xu Hanxing immediately, and made a simple observation first.
Then he realized that this was just an ordinary cabin, similar to the houses where sundries were placed in some rural farming dramas he had watched.
There is some dry thatch in the corner, some bamboo tools are leaning against the wall, and nothing else, the room is broken and cold, with air leakage everywhere.
"Why did Xu Hanxing live in the wilderness with mass graves, prison cells, and ordinary firewood houses when he was a child?" Yan Su pondered, "And what about the monsters with animal heads and human bodies, he hasn't said anything yet."
He walked softly to the door of the wooden house and tried to push it.
Sure enough, it was locked.
Yan Su moved his eyes to the crack of the door again.
Through the large gap between the planks, he quickly saw outside—there were quite a few people.
But they were not counted as people, and outside the door were all villagers with various animal heads, who were gathering together at this time, as if they were preparing to do something.
Reminiscent of the theme of this dream, Yan Su guessed that what they wanted to do was probably to hang them both.
But there are too many monsters, just one is difficult to deal with, now there are at least a dozen outside the door, how should I escape this time?
Yan Su sighed speechlessly.
Investigating abnormal events is indeed not something everyone can do. No wonder the Bureau of Investigation has been understaffed.
Especially for someone like Xu Hanxing who has never touched the fish and has always been on the front line, he has already experienced several fatal situations when he met Guang Yansu. It is really lucky to be able to survive until now.
Yan Su rubbed his forehead, turned around, and found that Xu Hanxing was already awake, but his eyes were out of focus, looking at a corner in the void, as if he was still immersed in the sequelae of being drilled into his brain by bugs in the previous round.
"Can you hold on?" Yan Su stepped forward to untie the rope for him.
It took quite a while this time before Xu Hanxing came to his senses and hummed.
"Why do these villagers have monster heads in your dream?" Yan Su thought about the unfinished topic just now.
Xu Hanxing reacted for a few seconds, then paused and said, "There was a custom in my village when I was a child. Every year when it was the day of sacrifice, everyone would wear homemade animal masks to pray for the village."
"When I was a child, I thought their masks were scary, maybe because of this, they turned into terrifying monsters in the nightmare generated by the turntable."
Yan Su felt that Xu Hanxing was probably exhausted from death, and instead of trying to find a way to escape immediately, he used the opening time to rest as much as possible.
Xu Hanxing didn't try to stand up, and continued to lean his head against the wall, but his eyes moved slowly, without raising them.
But the eyes covered by the shadow of the eyelashes obviously looked secretly at Yan Su's body that was very close.
"What's the matter, why are you looking at me?" Yan Su asked him softly after letting him watch for a while.
"Uh..." Xu Hanxing's eyelashes trembled slightly, he quickly looked away, and couldn't help pursing his lips lightly.
Yan Su felt his appetite was whetted again.
Just about to ask again, but at this moment, the sound of the wooden door being opened from the outside resounded.
"Ji Li Gu Lu" as soon as the villagers came in, they began to say some incomprehensible words, and pointed at the two of them in surprise.
Yan Su had no choice but to turn his attention around, and even guessed, thinking that they were probably talking about why the rope that tied the two people was opened.
After a while, they re-tied the two of them, and then divided into two groups, pulling them out of the door respectively.
Yan Su tried to struggle, and found that these people were the same as the previous two monsters, with great strength and a large number. If they did not recover their bodies, it would be difficult to get out of trouble.I didn't bother to try again, and I was going to lie down and see how things develop this time.
If you really can't find a way to clean up the turntable, if you can see a little more of Xu Hanxing's secrets, that's fine.
In this way, the two were taken to the barren hill behind the village.Sure enough, it was the familiar mountain where mudslides occurred.
This is where Xu Hanxing lived when he was a child.
It's just that this time they didn't stop at the foot of the mountain, but went straight up the mountain. The map in the dream was obviously different from the real one. They didn't seem to have walked much, and the group reached the top of the mountain.
The villagers still communicated in a language they didn't understand, and they quickly reached an agreement to tie a knot around the necks of the two of them. The rope was very long, and the other end was tied to a dead tree on the top of the mountain.
"Is this going to hang us down the mountain by tying our necks?" Yan Su thought to himself.
He turned his head to look at Xu Hanxing, and found that Xu Hanxing's brows were wrinkled in discomfort, and he still looked like he was enduring a headache.There was a lot of sweat on the forehead again, and the eyes were a little hazy.
It seems that since he entered this dream, his reaction speed has been different from before, always seems to be a few beats slower. Could it be that the turntable randomly damaged his brain?
Yan Su tentatively probed Xu Hanxing's head, and found that it was a mess inside, and the subcutaneous tissue was covered with tiny scars.
The two were quickly pushed by a group of villagers and stood on the edge of the cliff. Xu Hanxing stared at the thousand-meter altitude below his feet for a few seconds, and slowly raised his eyes to look at Yan Su.
Yan Su then gave him a comforting look, indicating that he would be fine.
But for some reason, this look made Xu Hanxing's look turbulent.
Yan Su felt being pushed hard from behind.
Tired of escaping, he didn't resist at all, and together with Xu Hanxing, fell off the cliff like bungee jumping.
Yan Su felt the cold wind blowing towards his face, as if cut by a knife.
He quickly used his mental power to make a thin protective cover to envelop the two of them.
Then he felt much more comfortable, and Yan Su even leisurely enjoyed the scenery in the mountains.
It has to be said that from the perspective of overlooking, this barren mountain with very light greenery and no flowers has a tranquil atmosphere suitable for seclusion.
Yan Su vaguely remembered that when he first came to HAN, he seemed to open the portal in such a quiet and leisurely deep mountain.
After a huge space jump, even he rested in the mountains for two or three years before returning to human society.
After thinking about it for a while, the knot on the neck was used up and was about to be straightened.
Yan Su easily broke free from the shackles, took off the sling, and then dragged himself and Xu Hanxing's bodies with mental strength, making them fall to the ground smoothly.
When he realized that he suddenly fell into memories and ignored the ordinary people around him, he actually used his abilities in person without any concealment!The two have returned to the ground.
Yan Su looked back at Xu Hanxing's reaction in embarrassment, but found that he seemed to have fallen into a coma again when he was just pushed down.
Due to the lack of self-awareness, Xu Hanxing collapsed as soon as he touched the ground under his feet, his eyes were closed but his brows were still furrowed.
Yan Su suddenly felt a trace of inexplicable disappointment. If he hadn't passed out, he didn't know what his reaction would be. Should he just pretend he didn't see it?
After thinking this way, Yan Su shook his head again, thinking how could he have such a dangerous thought.
He must have been distracted by Xu Hanxing's appetite recently. Under normal circumstances, he still has to try his best to avoid being discovered by ordinary people.If Xu Hanxing really saw something just now, then what he should consider, perhaps, is to brainwash this person to a higher degree than the supermarket aunt who almost gouged out his eyes.
Yansu has been in human society on various planets for hundreds of thousands of years, and never let his real vest be known by ordinary people.
He approached Xu Hanxing with a questioning face, turned his face, checked carefully, and finally confirmed that he really passed out.
Yan Su picked him up and walked in a random direction.
According to the routine, after this crisis is not dead, new ones will come to the door soon.
Yan Su always pays attention to whether there is any abnormal movement nearby.
But I don't know if it was because Xu Hanxing lost consciousness that the whole world suddenly became peaceful and quiet.
The pursuit seemed to have stopped, the surrounding dead trees hadn't grown into spirits, no meteorite had fallen on the top of the mountain, and neither of them had any strange timing devices installed in their minds.
Yan Su strolled along the mountain road for a few minutes, and inexplicably went back to the small village at the foot of the mountain.
The first thing I saw was a dilapidated thatched cottage far away from other houses.
The people who live here seem to be squeezed out by the whole village, so they settle down so far away.
Yan Su passed by and found that the thatched cottage didn't even have a door, so he took a few extra glances at it.
And the next moment, he was surprised to find that this seemed to be Xu Hanxing's childhood home.
There are only a few pieces of furniture in the house. Although the hut itself is not big, there are still many empty places, but there are traces of more furniture on the dirt floor.
It is not difficult to think that something happened to this small family, so it was almost evacuated.
Yan Su put Xu Hanxing on his shoulders on the wooden bed in the room.Then he approached the object that made him recognize that this was Xu Hanxing's home.
It was a simple urn leaning against the wall. Next to the box, there was a photo of a young woman holding a child. From the looks of the woman, she looked a bit like Xu Hanxing. She was pretty and in her early twenties. It should be his mother.
As for this kid.
Yan Su picked up the photo and brushed her thumbs over the pair of eyes that had been very beautiful since she was a child.
He suddenly felt that this young Xu Hanxing looked very familiar.
Yan Su raised his head, frowning and thinking.
Then I felt that this barren mountain was also very familiar, and this village was also very familiar.
He immediately remembered where he had met him.
Those were the first few years when I first came to HAN Star.
At that time, Yan Su had exhausted his energy due to the time-space teleportation, so he could only stay in the clean barren mountains to recuperate.
And at the foot of that mountain, there lived a group of villagers who believed in the gods in the mountain.
In the first year he came, he met several adults wearing strange animal masks, carrying a stunned little girl in a bright red wedding dress, and putting her into a cave, meaning to sacrifice her, Marry the gods.
But Yansu knew that there was no god on this mountain at all, and that cave was just a snake cave. If no one took care of it, the little girl would be swallowed by the snakes that night, leaving no bones left.
Yan Su didn't know if such a little girl was thrown up the mountain to feed snakes every year during the years when he didn't come, and if the villagers came to the cave the next day, they would definitely find that the little girl was gone. Thinking that the gods had accepted the underage wife, they all knelt down and shouted, and then come back next year.
Yan Su, who lived near the cave at that time, of course didn't like people messing around with such feudal superstitions in front of her eyes.
So he casually sent the few low-level monsters captured at that time, and asked them to carry the little girl to the gate of the orphanage in a town not far away.
The villagers didn't know about this, and thought that the gods accepted the new wife they sacrificed as usual, and the girl who was sent away never came back, and she should have lived a new life in the city.So everyone was happy, and Yan Su didn't pay too much attention to this kind of thing that only happens once a year.
It wasn't until Yansu's third year living in the mountains that he met Xu Hanxing.
I don't know why that year, maybe the little girls under the age of ten had been used up by the villagers. When Yan Su noticed that the sacrifice ceremony had started again, he realized that the one who was sent here this time was about eight or nine years old. little boy.
Although he is a boy, he has a fair face, delicate eyebrows and eyes, and is dressed in red. He looks better than most girls in the mountains.And he seemed to be smarter than the previous children. Yan Su found that he was not really stunned, but just pretended to be unconscious, closed his eyes, and let the villagers carry him up the mountain.
However, it was inconvenient for him to carry someone to the orphanage.
Yan Su felt a little troublesome.
He didn't have a human body at that time, because the previous body was broken in the process of traveling through time and space, and the new body hadn't been squeezed yet.
When he was hesitant to let his little brother knock him out, the beautiful little boy had already got up from the snake hole, untied the rope, and was gradually going deeper into the hole.
Although he was pretending to be unconscious before, he didn't seem to resist being sacrificed, and he didn't escape at this time.
His young face is full of fear and hope, and he is actively looking for the gods.
Yan Su then had a little headache facing the immature child: if the child goes any further, he will fall into the snake's nest directly.
Until Xiao Xu Hanxing crushed the old bone fragments with one foot, and fell to the ground in horror, only to find that he was in the middle of a group of snakes watching him faintly. The appearance of "a god in his imagination" pulled him from behind.
After that, there seemed to be no special follow-up. The child seemed to have experienced a lot of life and psychological trauma before, and was frightened by the scene in the cave. San quickly bottomed out. Yan Su patted his head to comfort him. In his spirit, he called his younger brother to send him away.
It's just that the child was still wearing a red wedding gown that was changed from a woman's style to a man's style, and he couldn't be allowed to lie in front of the orphanage in this dress, so Yan Su took off the wedding gown, found some rags, and put He packs.
They never saw each other again.
On the contrary, the image of the gods used at that time was preserved by Yan Su. He likes to pinch good-looking people, and this good-looking child, who made up the image of the gods, is indeed very good-looking.
Yan Su changed it slightly, and has been using it as her own human body until now.
"So, Xu Hanxing was that kid at that time. His strange behavior before was because he recognized my face?" Yan Su pondered.
But every time he went out, he would wear a mask, and he never took it off when he was with Xu Hanxing.
Moreover, Yan Su had given that child mental disturbance back then, so he shouldn't have remembered his appearance after so many years.
After being puzzled for a while, Yan Su suddenly realized that he had overlooked another question: Since this face came from Xu Hanxing's imagination from the beginning, no matter whether he remembered it or not, when he saw it again, even if he only saw a pair of eyes , must also be suspicious.
"This..." Yan Su frowned, but felt even more puzzled.
Xu Hanxing is currently 26 years old and has become an adult. He has joined the investigation bureau to deal with monsters full-time.
According to common sense, he must have understood after receiving quality education in cities and towns that all the sacrifices, gods and so on in childhood are feudal superstitions. There are no gods in this world, only monsters, and monsters often cause harm to human society.
Then if he recognizes Yan Su now, wouldn't he think that he is an evil monster disguised as a god who cruelly eats up a little girl every year?
Why does it now appear to be the opposite?
Yan Su stretched out his hand to pick up Xu Hanxing, and felt confused again. He obviously felt that the case had been solved, but why did he feel even more confused?
It is those strange trees in front of the prison gate.
When they first came out, they looked like normal dead trees, but suddenly they slowly swayed with the breeze.
The atmosphere of what the two were going to say was immediately interrupted, and their eyes couldn't help being attracted to them,
The environment was extremely quiet, except for the slight sound of the wind.
The next moment, the wind suddenly became stronger, and the dead branches that were originally vertically extended instantly, like a pair of claws, coming straight towards the two of them from all directions.
Yan Su and Xu Hanxing hadn't walked very far at this moment, they had just left the cell building about three to five meters away, and hurried back to the door upon seeing this.
"call--"
In an instant, several whip-like branches swung past where they were standing just now, making the sound of wind like sharp blades.
Yan Su had no doubt that if the two were still standing there at this moment, their heads would have been smashed by the hard dead branch.
"It seems that this is the second crisis." Yan Su said.
He turned his head and glanced at Xu Hanxing again.I found that his expression was also quite dignified.Both knew what that meant.If all the dead trees on the ground outside stretched out their branches to attack like this, they would be equivalent to being trapped in place.
Of course, even if you can go out and walk around at will, there are likely to be other dangers hidden in the wilderness outside.
But if you can't even get out like this, people have to guess that the third crisis may be hidden in the house behind.
Yan Su thought of this in an instant, and the dead tree, which was missed by one hit, had already retracted and shook a few times, as if preparing for the next attack.
This time, both of them stood close to the door. Yan Su wanted to see if he was outside the dead tree's attack range if he just stood in front of the door, but obviously not.
Those branches soon came straight to the building with the sound of breaking through the air again.
It's fortunate that they didn't close the door when they first came out.
Yan Su opened the half-covered rusty iron door, and the two quickly returned to the door.
Then the next second the door was closed.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" The branch hit the door, making a dense and loud noise.
Yan Su turned his head and found that the heavy door, close to their heads, was even slightly dented by the blow, showing how strong the branches were.
The two leaned against the door, silent for a while, not knowing what to do for a while.
Apparently Xu Hanxing also thought that there might still be danger in the house, so he didn't propose to go in to avoid it.
But now that he was in a nightmare of mortal death, it wasn't that if they didn't get close, the crisis wouldn't come.
"Hiss..." Yan Su soon heard the sound of rustling and friction coming from a place far behind the corner of the corridor.
In fact, this building looks like a very regular rectangle from the outside. The gate is on the edge of the long side of the rectangle. After entering the gate, through a short corridor, you will come to the front of the three parallel cells, and the innermost cell The only one is the operating room that is suspected to be used for murder, and there are no more rooms in it.
Yansu and Xu Hanxing have all walked through these areas, and there is no one else hiding in them, so the only one who can make a sound is probably the dead elephant-headed man.
"He has no head, can he be resurrected?" Yan Su and Xu Hanxing looked at each other, and both of them revealed this question in their eyes.
It can only be said that it is worthy of being a monster capable of burying people in mudslides, and the mere headless corpse is not so excessive in comparison.
Just a few seconds later, heavy footsteps came from the place where the sound came from.
It seemed that the headless corpse was slowly patrolling, looking for people everywhere.
Yan Su frowned, he wanted to do the same ambush at the corner of the corridor again, but the mace was too heavy, and he threw it in the operating table hall when it was used up.
And if there were no accidents this time, the elephant-headed man should have lost his elephant head, so why should Yansu beat it?
I always feel like I have to think of another way...
Just thinking about it, Yan Su felt Xu Hanxing gently tug on the corner of his clothes.
"Huh?" Yan Su looked at him.
Xu Hanxing tilted his head and nodded outside the door.
"Hit the elephant-headed man with a branch?" Yan Su immediately understood what he meant.
In fact, Yan Su usually stays at home and often plays video games. In the game, if he encounters such a situation where he is attacked from both sides, it is very common to lure one of them out and use the other to fight the former. .
But that has a prerequisite, that is, there is no damage immunity between the two opponents, that is, they must have a friendly relationship.
It's hard to say whether the monsters and dryads in this world belong to the friendly relationship, but there is no better way at present, so it's worth trying.
Yan Su then nodded at him.
The two didn't speak during the whole process, but there seemed to be a tacit understanding, and they found their own division of labor in an instant.
Xu Hanxing gave Yansu a look, indicating that he was ready.
Yan Su stretched out his hand lightly and turned the door lock, and there was a crisp "click" in the silent environment.
The elephant-headed man at the back of the corridor paused, then obviously stopped his slow search, and then walked towards the two at a faster pace.
Soon, the elephant-headed man turned the corner facing the gate.
Yan Su saw the body of a headless man standing in the dim light holding a pair of surgical forceps that he probably found casually.The sturdy body casts a long shadow on the ground.
"Squealing—" Yan Su pushed open the iron gate at this moment, and then stepped out first, but instead of running away immediately, he dodged to get behind the gate.
Needless to say, Xu Hanxing also escaped in the next moment, and at this moment, the elephant-headed man, who should be called the headless man now, strode forward and chased after him.
Xu Hanxing didn't look back for Yansu, but rushed straight into the withered forest that seemed to be stretched out with claws.
The headless man quickly chased after only two seconds. He found that the two people at the door had turned into one person, but he didn't pay much attention to it, and followed Xu Hanxing, who was the only one running ahead.
His legs were thick and long, one step pushed Xu Hanxing two steps, the two chased and ran, and quickly entered the attack trigger range of the dead tree.
And Yan Su was not idle at the moment, after the headless man went out, he quickly entered the building again, he was going to get the mace, in case the dead tree couldn't hurt the headless man, he could use it to repair the knife.
In just a few seconds, he returned to the hall. Fortunately, the mace was still in place. Yan Su reflected on himself for a while, and felt that he should not throw away the weapon just because he was invincible. What the headman touched was not surgical forceps, but this big stick...
It seems that there will be no serious consequences. At most, Yan Su will have to find a new blunt weapon when he comes back.The most important thing is that it is a waste of time. If he had the weapon in his hand just now, he could actually sneak attack again directly behind the corner.
Yan Su quickly returned to the gate with the stick in his hand.
At this time, only ten seconds had passed since he entered the house, and Xu Hanxing had just taken the headless man around the woods.
The dead trees lived up to expectations, stretched out their long branches again, and lashed at the two of them viciously.
Yan Su found that he was a little nervous in vain, obviously this was just a realistic nightmare, it didn't matter how many times he died, and he couldn't feel pain, he wouldn't get hurt, it was like playing a simulation game .
But Xu Hanxing was injured at this time, and as he ran fast, more blood gradually oozes from his clothes.
Since the coat is black, the bloodstains are not really visible, but Yan Su's eyes are better than humans, and he can catch several wet spots on his clothes from a distance, and the collar of the coat and the white shirt underneath are also there. Gradually stained with blood red.
"Come quickly—" Yan Su stood at the door, raised his unarmed left hand, palm up, and stretched it out towards him.
The speed that Xu Hanxing was about to slow down was suddenly mentioned inexplicably.
He tried his best to lower his head slightly while running, and with the sharp sound of breaking through the air, several thick branches passed over his head—unfortunately, they didn't all hit the back of his head.
Xu Hanxing still didn't dodge completely, his back was hit hard like a whip, and he immediately staggered forward for a while, and then threw himself on the ground.
Yan Su took a few steps forward to catch him, half dragging and half hugging him back to the door, narrowly dodging another wave of attacks.
What is regrettable is that the headless man runs among the waving branches and leaves.
Those branches don't hit it at all.
Yansu had no choice but to turn around to face it, and weighed the mace in his hand. The headless man arrived in front of him in a split second. Yansu swung the stick and hit it on the leg this time. However, this time Human leg bones are thick and hard, not as easy to beat as that elephant head.
The force returned from the shock almost dislocated Yan Su's arm joints. Yan Su once again doubted himself for a short while, as if he shouldn't complain about Xu Hanxing's physical fitness. Obviously, the human shell he pinched is just as weak.
He took a step back and stepped on the door frame with his heels. Behind the door lay Xu Hanxing who was seriously injured and had just been stuffed into the room by him.
And the headless man was knocked on the leg, and he only retreated slightly, and rushed up again the next moment.
Yan Su had just repaired his joints, so he was impatient for a while, this time he didn't use a weapon, he just raised his fingers flat.
The headless man is headless, and Yan Su is actually not sure if it will be controlled by spiritual power. Fortunately, this is a dream after all, and everything in the dream is probably composed of spiritual power.
The headless man froze for a moment, then quickly backed up a few steps as if he had been hit hard, and then the surgical forceps in his hand flew out.
Yan Su didn't want to waste too much energy, so he retreated into the door and locked it.
"I don't know if this door can stop him," Yan Su thought, frowning.
The next moment, a loud bang was heard, and the headless man rushed over and slammed into the door. A deformed protrusion that was heavier than the whipping of a tree branch emerged from the inside of the iron door.
It seems that there should be no breakthrough in a short period of time, but Yan Su suddenly thought of another thing:
"It seems to have a key."
After hearing his helpless sigh, Xu Hanxing, who had been propped on the ground to ease his injuries, turned around and stretched out his hand. Yan Su saw that lying in his hand was the keychain that the headless man had carried in his pocket.
"Huh? When did you get it?" Yan Su was surprised.
"Before you knocked off his head." Xu Hanxing panted lightly.
Yan Su also had to admire this time.
The situation appears to have stabilized for the time being.
"But with such a result, can it be regarded as successfully passing the third crisis?" Yan Su muttered.
Didn't kill the headless man, just locked it outside, maybe a bug can be stuck, making the turntable think that Xu Hanxing is still being hunted down by the third wave of crisis?
Thinking of Xu Hanxing, Yan Su thought of turning his head to look at his injuries.
I saw that the ground was full of blood at this time, all dripping from Xu Hanxing's back. Although he was facing Yan Su from the side, Yan Su could see from his close-body perception that there were deep and terrifying scars on his bones. Not just three.
Suddenly a new idea popped up in his mind.
"If he didn't die from a crushed skull, would the monster controlling the turntable feel offended and come forward to correct it? What's more, is it possible for the curse of the turntable to be broken directly?" Yan Su pondered.
"I, I tried it, it won't work." Xu Hanxing guessed what he was thinking again, leaned against the wall weakly, and replied.
"Okay." Yan Su had no choice but to say.
The headless man outside the door wanted to come in and kill someone because he didn't have a key, so he kept banging on the door. The iron door was gradually deformed after several times, and it seemed that it didn't last as long as they imagined.
Still have to continue to think of new ways to hold him back.
"Let's go to the cell," Yan Su suggested.
"The railings of the cell are also very strong, and they should last for a while." Xu Hanxing said at the same time.
The two looked at each other, and found that they wanted to go together. Yan Su remembered that when he was locked in the fence before, he saw that the iron bars were indeed extraordinarily thick.
But if it is more resistant than the iron gate, it is probably impossible, but there is no other way out at present. This building has no windows, the only entrance is the gate, and there is also an exhaust fan the size of a palm. Above the corner of the hall wall of the station, the size cannot be surpassed at all.
Now there is a headless man at the door, and there is a dead tree spirit outside the door, and the two of them have no more ideas, so they can only temporarily find a way to delay and prolong their survival time.
They quickly returned to the cell where Xu Hanxing was before, locked the cell door with a key after entering, and picked up the iron chain that tied Xu Hanxing before, and wrapped it tightly around the railing at the door lock.
After finishing these, Yan Su sat by the bed, waiting helplessly.Xu Hanxing didn't sit down, but stood by the wall not far from him, rubbing his forehead.
The feeling of waiting to die is really uncomfortable, and I don't know how many times Xu Hanxing has experienced it, and whether he has noticed the key to breaking the game.
Yan Su thought for a while, and decided to take advantage of the rare time to talk, to talk to him about his current thinking, and try to analyze:
"In the two dreams we have experienced together so far, I did find some commonalities. First, there will be animal heads and human bodies in each dream.
But low-level monsters without special abilities are completely different from monsters that exist in reality, which is a bit strange; the second is the outdoor environment. It seems that the two illusions are located at the foot of the same barren mountain. I don’t know about other dreams you have experienced before. Is it the same on these two points? "
"Hmm..." Xu Hanxing hesitated for a while, then replied, "These two points are indeed common to all scenes, but..."
"Ok?"
"But I'm not sure if I can find a solution to the turntable in it, because, you know, it's my dream."
Yan Su keenly noticed that Xu Hanxing said "my dream" instead of "our dream".
Xu Hanxing sighed: "The scenes in these dreams are actually related to my memory. Many buildings are what I remember, and the barren hills are the places where I lived when I was a child. Other people's dreams should also be based on They are in their own minds, so I am not sure if this can be used as effective information to provide clues for customs clearance."
So that was the case, Yan Su frowned again.
After the two of them said these few words, the headless man outside had already broken through the gate. With heavy footsteps, it quickly came to the iron fence, and then found the two people in the house, and it immediately turned its direction. , Shake the railing vigorously.
Its body was already broken and bloody due to the madness that hit the door before, and it was extremely shocking.
Fortunately, the railings are actually very strong. Under the huge force of the headless monster, they only sway slightly, and at most, a little sand and dust will fall from the cement ceiling.
"It seems to be able to prevent it." Yan Su said helplessly.
But in fact, the current situation is still not optimistic.
Even if the headless man can't get in for a lifetime, can the two of them live in this cell forever?
Especially this turntable monster is so unreasonable, maybe a meteorite will fall from the sky in the next moment, and the house and people will be smashed together.
Just as he was thinking, Yan Su heard something falling out of the headless man's pocket.
He had a bad premonition for a moment.
Sure enough, the moment the thing was dropped on the ground, he heard Xu Hanxing suddenly groan in pain.
When he turned his head, he saw Xu Hanxing clutching his forehead and slowly squatting on the ground against the wall, "What's wrong?" Yan Su asked, suddenly belatedly noticed that Xu Hanxing seemed to have been rubbing his head since just now .
At this moment, Xu Hanxing's head was already covered with cold sweat, and he couldn't speak for a while. After a long time, he gasped again, and said:
"Yes, there is something..." He quickly fell to his knees and curled up into a ball.
"What?" Yan Su was surprised, knelt down and put his hands on top of his head, trying to put the tentacles of mental power in.
As a result, the next moment, I suddenly discovered that in Xu Hanxing's brain, for some reason, there was a bug-like thing crawling - it probably was just dormant on the brain, but after the small box on the headless man fell, it disappeared. Start to drill hard under the skin.
"When was it put in? Before we woke up?" Yan Su was astonished.
He felt it in his head, and sure enough there was one, but he couldn't feel the pain, and he hadn't noticed it before.
But this is too foul.
The mudslides can be regarded as taking advantage of the natural characteristics of the environment, at least for a reason.
But is this thing too strange?Is it really in order to achieve the goal of the curse, completely ignoring logic?
Yan Su was speechless, and Xu Hanxing clenched his hands tightly, and then when he heard the headless man smashing the fence angrily, he accidentally stepped on the small box that seemed to be used to control insects.
"what--"
.
Yan Su woke up from reality again.
"Uh..." This time he couldn't help but glanced at the turntable on the coffee table, with a bad expression on his face.
After trying twice, I didn't find any serious clues, but I realized the unreasonable nature of this monster.
Yan Su was actually a bit tired from playing, he decided to try one last time, if he still couldn't find a formal way to subdue it, he was going to consider destroying it directly.
If one shopping mall is destroyed, there will be tens of thousands of shopping malls re-established. Yan Su is not so afraid of making a big fuss.And he was willing to try again, mainly because Xu Hanxing had just learned that these nightmares were made up of his memories, Yan Su suddenly wanted to see what else would appear in his dreams.
Another few seconds of turntable time.
This time he landed in the cell named "Hanged".
When the sight was restored, Yan Su found himself sitting in a small wooden hut, surrounded by dirty and dilapidated, like a woodshed.
This time Xu Hanxing was also leaning against another corner of the room. The injuries on his back were healed after the dream reset, but those caused by the turntable were still there.At this time, the whole person was leaning against the corner of the wall, his upper body drooping powerlessly, and he hadn't woken up yet.
But this time it was just a straw rope that tied the two of them together.
Yan Su easily untied him, this time he didn't wake up Xu Hanxing immediately, and made a simple observation first.
Then he realized that this was just an ordinary cabin, similar to the houses where sundries were placed in some rural farming dramas he had watched.
There is some dry thatch in the corner, some bamboo tools are leaning against the wall, and nothing else, the room is broken and cold, with air leakage everywhere.
"Why did Xu Hanxing live in the wilderness with mass graves, prison cells, and ordinary firewood houses when he was a child?" Yan Su pondered, "And what about the monsters with animal heads and human bodies, he hasn't said anything yet."
He walked softly to the door of the wooden house and tried to push it.
Sure enough, it was locked.
Yan Su moved his eyes to the crack of the door again.
Through the large gap between the planks, he quickly saw outside—there were quite a few people.
But they were not counted as people, and outside the door were all villagers with various animal heads, who were gathering together at this time, as if they were preparing to do something.
Reminiscent of the theme of this dream, Yan Su guessed that what they wanted to do was probably to hang them both.
But there are too many monsters, just one is difficult to deal with, now there are at least a dozen outside the door, how should I escape this time?
Yan Su sighed speechlessly.
Investigating abnormal events is indeed not something everyone can do. No wonder the Bureau of Investigation has been understaffed.
Especially for someone like Xu Hanxing who has never touched the fish and has always been on the front line, he has already experienced several fatal situations when he met Guang Yansu. It is really lucky to be able to survive until now.
Yan Su rubbed his forehead, turned around, and found that Xu Hanxing was already awake, but his eyes were out of focus, looking at a corner in the void, as if he was still immersed in the sequelae of being drilled into his brain by bugs in the previous round.
"Can you hold on?" Yan Su stepped forward to untie the rope for him.
It took quite a while this time before Xu Hanxing came to his senses and hummed.
"Why do these villagers have monster heads in your dream?" Yan Su thought about the unfinished topic just now.
Xu Hanxing reacted for a few seconds, then paused and said, "There was a custom in my village when I was a child. Every year when it was the day of sacrifice, everyone would wear homemade animal masks to pray for the village."
"When I was a child, I thought their masks were scary, maybe because of this, they turned into terrifying monsters in the nightmare generated by the turntable."
Yan Su felt that Xu Hanxing was probably exhausted from death, and instead of trying to find a way to escape immediately, he used the opening time to rest as much as possible.
Xu Hanxing didn't try to stand up, and continued to lean his head against the wall, but his eyes moved slowly, without raising them.
But the eyes covered by the shadow of the eyelashes obviously looked secretly at Yan Su's body that was very close.
"What's the matter, why are you looking at me?" Yan Su asked him softly after letting him watch for a while.
"Uh..." Xu Hanxing's eyelashes trembled slightly, he quickly looked away, and couldn't help pursing his lips lightly.
Yan Su felt his appetite was whetted again.
Just about to ask again, but at this moment, the sound of the wooden door being opened from the outside resounded.
"Ji Li Gu Lu" as soon as the villagers came in, they began to say some incomprehensible words, and pointed at the two of them in surprise.
Yan Su had no choice but to turn his attention around, and even guessed, thinking that they were probably talking about why the rope that tied the two people was opened.
After a while, they re-tied the two of them, and then divided into two groups, pulling them out of the door respectively.
Yan Su tried to struggle, and found that these people were the same as the previous two monsters, with great strength and a large number. If they did not recover their bodies, it would be difficult to get out of trouble.I didn't bother to try again, and I was going to lie down and see how things develop this time.
If you really can't find a way to clean up the turntable, if you can see a little more of Xu Hanxing's secrets, that's fine.
In this way, the two were taken to the barren hill behind the village.Sure enough, it was the familiar mountain where mudslides occurred.
This is where Xu Hanxing lived when he was a child.
It's just that this time they didn't stop at the foot of the mountain, but went straight up the mountain. The map in the dream was obviously different from the real one. They didn't seem to have walked much, and the group reached the top of the mountain.
The villagers still communicated in a language they didn't understand, and they quickly reached an agreement to tie a knot around the necks of the two of them. The rope was very long, and the other end was tied to a dead tree on the top of the mountain.
"Is this going to hang us down the mountain by tying our necks?" Yan Su thought to himself.
He turned his head to look at Xu Hanxing, and found that Xu Hanxing's brows were wrinkled in discomfort, and he still looked like he was enduring a headache.There was a lot of sweat on the forehead again, and the eyes were a little hazy.
It seems that since he entered this dream, his reaction speed has been different from before, always seems to be a few beats slower. Could it be that the turntable randomly damaged his brain?
Yan Su tentatively probed Xu Hanxing's head, and found that it was a mess inside, and the subcutaneous tissue was covered with tiny scars.
The two were quickly pushed by a group of villagers and stood on the edge of the cliff. Xu Hanxing stared at the thousand-meter altitude below his feet for a few seconds, and slowly raised his eyes to look at Yan Su.
Yan Su then gave him a comforting look, indicating that he would be fine.
But for some reason, this look made Xu Hanxing's look turbulent.
Yan Su felt being pushed hard from behind.
Tired of escaping, he didn't resist at all, and together with Xu Hanxing, fell off the cliff like bungee jumping.
Yan Su felt the cold wind blowing towards his face, as if cut by a knife.
He quickly used his mental power to make a thin protective cover to envelop the two of them.
Then he felt much more comfortable, and Yan Su even leisurely enjoyed the scenery in the mountains.
It has to be said that from the perspective of overlooking, this barren mountain with very light greenery and no flowers has a tranquil atmosphere suitable for seclusion.
Yan Su vaguely remembered that when he first came to HAN, he seemed to open the portal in such a quiet and leisurely deep mountain.
After a huge space jump, even he rested in the mountains for two or three years before returning to human society.
After thinking about it for a while, the knot on the neck was used up and was about to be straightened.
Yan Su easily broke free from the shackles, took off the sling, and then dragged himself and Xu Hanxing's bodies with mental strength, making them fall to the ground smoothly.
When he realized that he suddenly fell into memories and ignored the ordinary people around him, he actually used his abilities in person without any concealment!The two have returned to the ground.
Yan Su looked back at Xu Hanxing's reaction in embarrassment, but found that he seemed to have fallen into a coma again when he was just pushed down.
Due to the lack of self-awareness, Xu Hanxing collapsed as soon as he touched the ground under his feet, his eyes were closed but his brows were still furrowed.
Yan Su suddenly felt a trace of inexplicable disappointment. If he hadn't passed out, he didn't know what his reaction would be. Should he just pretend he didn't see it?
After thinking this way, Yan Su shook his head again, thinking how could he have such a dangerous thought.
He must have been distracted by Xu Hanxing's appetite recently. Under normal circumstances, he still has to try his best to avoid being discovered by ordinary people.If Xu Hanxing really saw something just now, then what he should consider, perhaps, is to brainwash this person to a higher degree than the supermarket aunt who almost gouged out his eyes.
Yansu has been in human society on various planets for hundreds of thousands of years, and never let his real vest be known by ordinary people.
He approached Xu Hanxing with a questioning face, turned his face, checked carefully, and finally confirmed that he really passed out.
Yan Su picked him up and walked in a random direction.
According to the routine, after this crisis is not dead, new ones will come to the door soon.
Yan Su always pays attention to whether there is any abnormal movement nearby.
But I don't know if it was because Xu Hanxing lost consciousness that the whole world suddenly became peaceful and quiet.
The pursuit seemed to have stopped, the surrounding dead trees hadn't grown into spirits, no meteorite had fallen on the top of the mountain, and neither of them had any strange timing devices installed in their minds.
Yan Su strolled along the mountain road for a few minutes, and inexplicably went back to the small village at the foot of the mountain.
The first thing I saw was a dilapidated thatched cottage far away from other houses.
The people who live here seem to be squeezed out by the whole village, so they settle down so far away.
Yan Su passed by and found that the thatched cottage didn't even have a door, so he took a few extra glances at it.
And the next moment, he was surprised to find that this seemed to be Xu Hanxing's childhood home.
There are only a few pieces of furniture in the house. Although the hut itself is not big, there are still many empty places, but there are traces of more furniture on the dirt floor.
It is not difficult to think that something happened to this small family, so it was almost evacuated.
Yan Su put Xu Hanxing on his shoulders on the wooden bed in the room.Then he approached the object that made him recognize that this was Xu Hanxing's home.
It was a simple urn leaning against the wall. Next to the box, there was a photo of a young woman holding a child. From the looks of the woman, she looked a bit like Xu Hanxing. She was pretty and in her early twenties. It should be his mother.
As for this kid.
Yan Su picked up the photo and brushed her thumbs over the pair of eyes that had been very beautiful since she was a child.
He suddenly felt that this young Xu Hanxing looked very familiar.
Yan Su raised his head, frowning and thinking.
Then I felt that this barren mountain was also very familiar, and this village was also very familiar.
He immediately remembered where he had met him.
Those were the first few years when I first came to HAN Star.
At that time, Yan Su had exhausted his energy due to the time-space teleportation, so he could only stay in the clean barren mountains to recuperate.
And at the foot of that mountain, there lived a group of villagers who believed in the gods in the mountain.
In the first year he came, he met several adults wearing strange animal masks, carrying a stunned little girl in a bright red wedding dress, and putting her into a cave, meaning to sacrifice her, Marry the gods.
But Yansu knew that there was no god on this mountain at all, and that cave was just a snake cave. If no one took care of it, the little girl would be swallowed by the snakes that night, leaving no bones left.
Yan Su didn't know if such a little girl was thrown up the mountain to feed snakes every year during the years when he didn't come, and if the villagers came to the cave the next day, they would definitely find that the little girl was gone. Thinking that the gods had accepted the underage wife, they all knelt down and shouted, and then come back next year.
Yan Su, who lived near the cave at that time, of course didn't like people messing around with such feudal superstitions in front of her eyes.
So he casually sent the few low-level monsters captured at that time, and asked them to carry the little girl to the gate of the orphanage in a town not far away.
The villagers didn't know about this, and thought that the gods accepted the new wife they sacrificed as usual, and the girl who was sent away never came back, and she should have lived a new life in the city.So everyone was happy, and Yan Su didn't pay too much attention to this kind of thing that only happens once a year.
It wasn't until Yansu's third year living in the mountains that he met Xu Hanxing.
I don't know why that year, maybe the little girls under the age of ten had been used up by the villagers. When Yan Su noticed that the sacrifice ceremony had started again, he realized that the one who was sent here this time was about eight or nine years old. little boy.
Although he is a boy, he has a fair face, delicate eyebrows and eyes, and is dressed in red. He looks better than most girls in the mountains.And he seemed to be smarter than the previous children. Yan Su found that he was not really stunned, but just pretended to be unconscious, closed his eyes, and let the villagers carry him up the mountain.
However, it was inconvenient for him to carry someone to the orphanage.
Yan Su felt a little troublesome.
He didn't have a human body at that time, because the previous body was broken in the process of traveling through time and space, and the new body hadn't been squeezed yet.
When he was hesitant to let his little brother knock him out, the beautiful little boy had already got up from the snake hole, untied the rope, and was gradually going deeper into the hole.
Although he was pretending to be unconscious before, he didn't seem to resist being sacrificed, and he didn't escape at this time.
His young face is full of fear and hope, and he is actively looking for the gods.
Yan Su then had a little headache facing the immature child: if the child goes any further, he will fall into the snake's nest directly.
Until Xiao Xu Hanxing crushed the old bone fragments with one foot, and fell to the ground in horror, only to find that he was in the middle of a group of snakes watching him faintly. The appearance of "a god in his imagination" pulled him from behind.
After that, there seemed to be no special follow-up. The child seemed to have experienced a lot of life and psychological trauma before, and was frightened by the scene in the cave. San quickly bottomed out. Yan Su patted his head to comfort him. In his spirit, he called his younger brother to send him away.
It's just that the child was still wearing a red wedding gown that was changed from a woman's style to a man's style, and he couldn't be allowed to lie in front of the orphanage in this dress, so Yan Su took off the wedding gown, found some rags, and put He packs.
They never saw each other again.
On the contrary, the image of the gods used at that time was preserved by Yan Su. He likes to pinch good-looking people, and this good-looking child, who made up the image of the gods, is indeed very good-looking.
Yan Su changed it slightly, and has been using it as her own human body until now.
"So, Xu Hanxing was that kid at that time. His strange behavior before was because he recognized my face?" Yan Su pondered.
But every time he went out, he would wear a mask, and he never took it off when he was with Xu Hanxing.
Moreover, Yan Su had given that child mental disturbance back then, so he shouldn't have remembered his appearance after so many years.
After being puzzled for a while, Yan Su suddenly realized that he had overlooked another question: Since this face came from Xu Hanxing's imagination from the beginning, no matter whether he remembered it or not, when he saw it again, even if he only saw a pair of eyes , must also be suspicious.
"This..." Yan Su frowned, but felt even more puzzled.
Xu Hanxing is currently 26 years old and has become an adult. He has joined the investigation bureau to deal with monsters full-time.
According to common sense, he must have understood after receiving quality education in cities and towns that all the sacrifices, gods and so on in childhood are feudal superstitions. There are no gods in this world, only monsters, and monsters often cause harm to human society.
Then if he recognizes Yan Su now, wouldn't he think that he is an evil monster disguised as a god who cruelly eats up a little girl every year?
Why does it now appear to be the opposite?
Yan Su stretched out his hand to pick up Xu Hanxing, and felt confused again. He obviously felt that the case had been solved, but why did he feel even more confused?
