Urban Oddities: Strange Tales of Mountain Villages

Chapter 21Escape

Lin Yang slept coldly at night, so he touched an electric blanket beside him.Lin Yang curled up and got into the electric blanket, rubbing it back and forth, it was so comfortable, Lin Yang was still thinking about packing the electric blanket and taking it home.After sleeping until dawn, he opened his eyes and saw that he was curled up in Luo Yi's arms.Jin Minxian laughed with a cigarette in his mouth and said: "You men are more tossing than the other, and you snored loudly all night. How about you, crawl into Luo Yi's arms and cover him like a quilt! If I were Luo Yi , I threw you into the fire a long time ago."

Thinking back to the "electric blanket" in his dream, Lin Yang's face immediately burned.Luo Yi had already been woken up by his tossing, and he just kept silent. Then he sat up and said with a smile: "I agreed to go back and hug you, so you can't wait?"

Jin Minxian: "Please live broadcast!"

Huang Dafa laughed loudly: "Why don't you ask for a live broadcast, and ask them to come and post it live?"

These two are all masters who talk about running trains without brakes.Lin Yang's face was on fire.Luo Yi smiled with them, listless and lacking energy.Lin Yang touched Luo Yi's forehead. It felt hot to the touch. He didn't know whether it was his own hand or the other's. Lin Yang asked Jin Minxian to touch it too. Jin Minxian knew that Luo Yi had a fever.Luo Yi said it was all right, drank some water and took some cold medicine, and said that he could leave after tidying up.It was just dawn at this time, and Lin Yang was still looking forward to Teacher Chen coming again, with one more person and one more helper, but he didn't see Teacher Chen until he set off.Most of the things to bring are candles and firewood. He Xiangu still has half a stack of talisman papers left to use as fire starters.Wang Jingxiang packed up her things and looked back. Huang Dafa had a baby camera hanging around his neck and a baby digital video camera in his hand. Wang Jingxiang suddenly became angry: "Dafa! Can you be more reliable?!"

Huang Dafa was taken aback: "I, why am I so unreliable?"

Wang Jingxiang said angrily: "You still have to carry the proprietress on your back!"

Huang Dafa didn't take it seriously: "I know! It doesn't matter! This little camera is not too heavy! I can also carry two proprietresses!"

Wang Jingxiang asked him to throw it away, but Huang Dafa was unwilling.Wang Jingxiang was so angry that she raised her hand to beat her, but Huang Dafa was not afraid of her beating him because of her thick skin and rough flesh.Wang Jingxiang was angry and ignored him after beating him a few times. Huang Dafa ran upstairs and carried Yang Chunhua down.Yang Chunhua vaguely said that she was going to beat eggs for Qiqi's breakfast, but Huang Dafa coaxed her to carry her to make breakfast.Luo Yi picked out some firewood that was burning brightly, and said that he would lead the way after a while; Dafa walked in the middle with the proprietress on his back, Wang Jingxiang accompanied Dafa with a firewood; Jin Minxian and Lin Yang took one and watched from behind. Don't be left behind.No matter what the mountain road is, as long as you get out of the village safely.

Before going out, Jin Minxian made coffee for everyone, and said that don't keep the biscuits and candies after eating, eat and drink enough, and maintain sufficient energy.

This time Luo Yi didn't make a detour, after all, it was uncomfortable for everyone to detour for more than an hour.There were several burning firewood in the team, and the villagers dared not approach them. As long as there were no accidents, they might have a chance to leave the village safely.When passing by Uncle Liu's house, Lin Yang heard the sound of something breaking inside the house. It might be a vase, or it might be a pot and pan. After a few minutes of bang bang bang, the house became silent again.Lin Yang glanced into the yard in fear. In the yard, the flower pots were tilted here and there, the bamboo poles for drying clothes were also scattered on the ground, and the fallen leaves and petals were covered with cement and soil...there was a mess everywhere.Lin Yang also noticed that the door of the house was ajar. He didn't know whether it was someone from the outside entering or the old lady from inside.Huang Dafa was walking like flying at the beginning, but after walking for ten minutes or so, he became out of breath and slowed down.Yang Chunhua didn't know what she was dreaming about, and called Qiqi again in a daze.She is so heavy, Huang Dafa really wants to take a rest.Lin Yang said that he would carry it instead, and Lin Yang realized that Huang Dafa was not easy when he carried Yang Chunhua... Yang Chunhua was really heavy, and Lin Yang felt like carrying a big mountain.Lin Yang gritted his teeth and barely walked more than ten meters, his legs were weak.Normally, it would be no problem for Lin Yang to carry a gas tank and climb up to the tenth and eighth floors, but recently he has not eaten enough to sleep, and his physical strength has long been exhausted.Yang Chunhua was sleeping soundly, but suddenly she let out a loud cry.Lin Yang knew something was going to happen when he heard the loud cry, Yang Chunhua struggled violently, Lin Yang couldn't carry her on his back, and the two fell to the ground together.Yang Chunhua looked nervous, got up and ran. "Boss lady! Boss lady!" Lin Yang didn't catch her, Yang Chunhua ran wildly, shouting to Qiqi not to be afraid that Mommy will come to save you right away.Her speed was too fast, I really don't know where the physical strength came from, even Luo Yi couldn't catch her. "Boss lady!" Luo Yi ran out after him, and the firewood in his hand went out as soon as he ran.Lin Yang got up and chased after him.Huang Dafa became anxious and was stopped by Jin Minxian: "Dafa! Don't join in the fun!"

"They have no fire!"

"Don't be afraid, we have a fire." Jin Minxian said, "We will go there too, but be careful not to extinguish the fire!"

Luo Yi rushed to the front and threw Yang Chunhua down with all his strength, but Yang Chunhua struggled and broke free.Luo Yi said: "Miss Boss! Calm down!" Lin Yang was so blinded by running at this moment, he heard Luo Yi say to the lady boss again: "It's just a dream! Mistress, you're just dreaming!" How much they hoped that Yang Chunhua could As if waking up from a dream, I stopped by myself.But Yang Chunhua was unkempt, like an angry lioness.She said that she heard Qiqi's voice, and Qiqi was asking her for help.Luo Yi couldn't stop it, and neither could Lin Yang. The way they caught Liu Qi didn't work for Yang Chunhua.A villager came out from the corner, Lin Yang immediately picked up a stone and threw it at it.Yang Chunhua didn't seem to care about her surroundings. She didn't know where she was going. They could take a break if they went to the farmhouse. There was a gas stove in the farmhouse. As long as they turned on the fire, they didn't have to worry about the villagers sneaking up on them.But the direction the proprietress ran was not the farmhouse, Lin Yang looked more and more wrong, until he saw a lonely building in the distance, Lin Yang felt a chill in his heart—the proprietress’s goal turned out to be a red brick building where wild cats gathered!

How could Liu Qi be in that kind of place? Yang Chunhua was clearly sleepy! "Boss lady! Boss lady!!!" Lin Yang was anxious and panicked, and accidentally slipped and fell, causing Luo Yi to stop. "Leave me alone, stop the lady boss!!!" Lin Yang yelled, and looked up to see Luo Yi throwing a brick at him.In case of being hit, it would be fatal, Lin Yang immediately lay down on the ground, only to hear a muffled pop, and the brick hit a villager.The villager had already chased after Lin Yang, less than two meters away.Lin Yang was frightened for a while, and scrambled and chased forward.After such a delay, Luo Yi distanced himself from the proprietress again. At this time, Yang Chunhua had already rushed into the weed pile, and Lin Yang and Luo Yi also rushed in.Weeds as tall as half a person blocked his sight. Lin Yang was worried about a sneak attack by wild cats, so he looked around while chasing them.However, there was not even a stray cat nearby. Lin Yang stepped on slippery things and supported himself with his hands when he fell to the ground. The ground was like mud, and his hands softened.The reddish-brown soil is mixed with white and yellow debris, and it also emits a strong stench.Lin Yang felt something wet and picked it up to see that it was a woolen rope covered in mud.What is this?Lin Yang pondered for a while, and Luo Yi helped him up: "Are you okay?"But he didn't have time to confirm, so he followed Luo Yi to the gate.The debris in the door has been cleared, and the nail boards are piled up in the corner.Lin Yang saw that the wooden boards were covered with blood, not only the wooden boards, but also the floor and walls were stained with blood. The house smelled bad.In addition to the stench, Lin Yang also smelled a particularly pungent smell of formalin.There was an iron door on the stairs, but Yang Chunhua couldn't open it, so she slammed on the door with her fist.Luo Yi winked at Lin Yang, and the two rushed up the stairs, grabbing the proprietress' arms on the left and right respectively.Yang Chunhua yelled: "Qiqi! Qiqi!!!" He raised his foot and kicked the iron gate. With a loud "Dang", the iron gate was kicked open, and several black shadows rushed out.Lin Yang dodged quickly, but the cat didn't attack them, but rushed out of the window sill as if fleeing for his life, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.Yang Chunhua broke free and ran upstairs. The smell of formalin became stronger and stronger. When they reached the second floor, a man covered in blood stopped them.Pu Junying was quite surprised: "Why are you here?" Since Pu Junying was there, Liu Qi must be there too.Lin Yang was also very surprised, how did Yang Chunhua know that Liu Qi was here?Did you really hear Liu Qi's voice?

Yang Chunhua said anxiously: "Where's Qiqi? Where's Qiqi?!"

Park Junying stopped her and said, "She's not here."

The door of the innermost room was ajar, and white light was shining through the crack of the door, which might be the light of a flashlight.And Pu Junying was covered in blood, holding a scalpel in his hand.Lin Yang grabbed Yang Chunhua and said tremblingly, "Miss Boss, Qiqi is not here."

"Nonsense! I heard Qiqi calling me!" Yang Chunhua still wanted to rush in, but Pu Junying was so strong that Yang Chunhua couldn't move forward even if he stopped her.Yang Chunhua yelled: "Qiqi! Qiqi! Mommy is here! Come out quickly!"

Pu Junying lowered her face: "Have you guys had enough trouble?"

Luo Yi also persuaded: "Miss Boss, let's go! Qiqi is not here!"

Yang Chunhua excitedly said: "She is here! She is here!!!"

Lin Yang coaxed: "She is waiting for you to make her breakfast at the farmhouse, let's go downstairs first!"

Yang Chunhua didn't want to leave, so she insisted on looking for Liu Qi.Pu Junying's chest was heaving, obviously very angry, panting and making a gurgling sound, Lin Yang looked up, and Pu Junying's eyeballs started to move uncontrollably again.Oops, he's going to lose control!Lin Yang blocked it, and he protected Yang Chunhua: "Boss, let's go!"

Yang Chunhua didn't retreat, but rushed forward, taking advantage of Pu Junying's strength, and immediately ran to the innermost room, shouting while running: "Qiqi! Qiqi! Mommy is here!" Pu Junying The eyeballs rolled around a few times and finally fixed on Yang Chunhua, looking like they were about to attack her.Lin Yang picked up a wooden board and patted Pu Junying: "Junying! Wake up!" This time Pu Junying did not regain consciousness, he squinted at Lin Yang like a hunter looking at his prey.Lin Yang wanted to take another shot, but Luo Yi rushed up and pushed him away.Lin Yang fell to the ground, a white light flashed in front of his eyes, Pu Junying jumped to the ground, and fell to the ground on all fours.He has a frothy figure, but his movements are very agile. Lin Yang and Luo Yi are not his opponents at all.The two dodged left and right, and were almost bitten several times.The space on the second floor is limited, the windows are sealed, and the only escape route is narrow stairs.Lin Yang and Luo Yi couldn't use it, and they couldn't outrun Pu Junying in terms of speed. They were soon cornered by Pu Junying. Lin Yang swung the wooden board and slapped it. Unaware of the pain, he bit him like a hungry wolf.Lin Yang dodged Pu Junying's teeth, but he didn't dodge the grabbing hand.Lin Yang's arm was caught, and he couldn't move it free.Luo Yi punched him, Pu Junying tilted his head and let go of his hand.Luo Yi dragged Lin Yang back a few meters away. Lin Yang was covered in cold sweat and sat down on the ground.Pu Junying is too dangerous, he can't be beaten here at all, he must be led outside as soon as possible.Pu Junying was a little confused, covered her head and shook her head: "Hey...how do you..."

Lin Yang's eyes lit up: "Junying, take the medicine quickly!!!"

Pu Junying was still not quite sober, and muttered: "Medicine...medicine..."

Could it be in your pocket?Lin Yang yelled: "In your pocket, look in your pocket!"

"Pockets... Pockets..." Pu Junying came back to his senses, and quickly fumbled in his pockets, but there was no injection in the pockets, and after touching for a while, his eyeballs started to spin again.The two forces were at a stalemate in his body, Pu Junying's mind began to blur again, and his eyes turned around and fixed on them.Luo Yi helped Lin Yang retreat to the stairs, intending to take the opportunity to lure him down.At this time, someone "thumped" ran upstairs. "Hi! Why did you come here?!" Huang Dafa appeared at the corner holding a firewood, and then Jin Minxian and Wang Jingxiang also arrived.A few people blocked the stairs, and the firelight illuminated the surroundings brightly. "Don't come up!" Luo Yi only had time to say this, and Pu Junying's chubby hand grabbed it.Huang Dafa held up the firewood at this time, and said in surprise: "Junying?"

"Hey!" Seeing the flames, Pu Junying flinched in fear.Lin Yang bumped sideways, and Pu Junying fell to the corner of the wall and climbed along the wall to the ceiling.Lin Yang was afraid for a while, and turned to Huang Dafa and said to them, "Let's go!"

Huang Dafa couldn't see what was going on upstairs, so he asked where the proprietress was and why Pu Junying was here.Huang Dafa was tall and fat, and he was stuck on the stairs and no one could get down.Lin Yang pushed him and told him to leave quickly.Luo Yi suddenly grabbed Huang Dafa's firewood and raised it towards Pu Junying on the ceiling.Pu Junying flinched again, Luo Yi said: "Lin Yang, take the fire!"

Lin Yang understood, and immediately took Jin Minxian's firewood, and together with Luo Yi, went to surround Pu Junying.The fire was getting closer and closer, and finally Pu Junying shrank into a ball and was trapped in the corner by the two of them. "Big hair! Go find the proprietress!" Lin Yang yelled, "Bring on fire!"

Wang Jingxiang handed the firewood to Huang Dafa and said, "I'll go with you!"

"No, you and Min Xian are waiting for me below." Huang Dafa stuffed the camera into her arms, "Help me hold it!"

Wang Jingxiang jumped up: "Believe it or not, I smashed them!"

Jin Minxian took Wang Jingxiang downstairs, and Huang Dafa went upstairs with firewood.

Lin Yang heard Huang Dafa's footsteps and reminded: "The innermost room! Be careful!"
