Chapter 956 Village
Walk after walk.
Antonio hasn’t come back yet, but he saw the shadow of the village first.
"Look! There is smoke!" Lu Xinyuan said happily, grabbing Melinir's shoulders.
In the small village, smoke curled up from several cooking places, looking quiet and peaceful.
Lin Fan glanced at his watch, it was past five o'clock.
Her watch is made from Lanxing. The dial is small and decorated with mother-of-pearl. The strap uses beautiful chain craftsmanship and is more like an exquisite bracelet.
The internal automatic movement is driven by the movement of the human wrist and runs automatically, providing continuous power to the watch, so it is completely unaffected by the barrier restrictions. Although there will be accuracy errors after long-term use, it is only within a few cents, and it will not be until a long time later.
When she was on board the Noah, Cui Yan was not sure what the productivity situation was here, so he specially brought her a few clocks, all of which had just been calibrated. Considering the path they have taken, time is no problem.
Ordinarily, five o'clock is indeed the time to make dinner, but when I look up at the sun, it is still high in the sky, and there is no tendency of the sunset at all.
Of course, the sun here is not called the sun. She just calls the shining star in the galaxy the sun according to habit.
When the flying saucer first landed, it was right in the middle of the sun. Now five hours later, it has just shifted its angle and lowered its altitude. It may take another five hours to completely set the mountain.
I don’t know if 3790 has just turned to the angle where the days are longer and the nights are shorter, or if the planet’s rotation time is already too long.
As soon as Lin Fan shared this information with everyone, he heard Binze say from behind: "Something's wrong! This is not smoke!"
Everyone looked up.
At that time, Feiye took them a little further, and more details were revealed.
Lin Fan and Xing Ze, who had better eyesight, could already see the rising black smoke rising upwards.
Most of the smoke when cooking is clear and light. How could it be so dark? The smoke area is much larger than that of kitchen smoke, and there are more than one place...
Before Lin Fan can think of what to do, Qi Ze made it clear in one word.
“This is the smoke produced by fires! Something happened to the village! Someone set the village on fire!”
Several people had a feeling in their hearts, and a bad premonition immediately arose in their hearts.
Lin Fan urged Fei Ye to approach quickly, and Melinir, who had been holding the sword with both hands, had to stretch out a hand to hold Lin Fan's shoulder to steady himself.
Although the plan was planned slowly, they turned a blind eye when they saw the tragedy happening, and even did nothing to save it... Lin Fan couldn't do it anyway.
No matter what, let’s go over and have a look. What if someone really needs help?
"Lin Jian, you can't go any further." When he saw the road at the entrance of the village, Binze reminded him, "It's too easy to get exposed if you go there like this."
Lin Fan immediately turned to the short slope next to him, lowered the height, and put away the flying leaves. When they returned to the main road and ran quickly, there was nothing too ostentatious about them.
In order to adapt to this planet, they specially changed into cotton gowns and pants and cloth shoes before coming down. This kind of outfit looks a bit like pajamas, but because of the exquisite workmanship, it is actually elegant if you look closely.
Although it looks a bit shabby, no matter what kind of supernatural star situation it is in, it will not look particularly out of place. At least it won't be more out of place than Noah's bright red uniform and long leather boots.
Now that the flying leaves are collected again, apart from Xingze's long, white hair and the four of them's good looks, there is really nothing that attracts attention.
Of course, these are based on the fact that the human race of 3790 has the same appearance as them and is not alien like the Yuehua people or the Octopus people.
If you are unlucky enough to land on a planet with mutant species, like Animo, where animals are in charge, they will be doomed as soon as they show up.
The four of them knew what was going on. Although they ran very fast, they also had the awareness of concealment. They always paid attention to the movements in the village and hid themselves against the wall. Once you find something wrong, you can hide it in time.
But they had been on guard for a long time and ran from the beginning of the village to the end of the village. Apart from the shocking corpses all over the ground, they didn't see even a single living person.
"Who is it..." Even though Lu Xinyuan had never met these people, he felt inexplicably sad, "Is this a massacre of the village? No one is left alive, not even the children... ”
The good news is not without it. The people here have the same physical appearance as them, to the extent that they can be disguised by changing their clothes.
But in the face of so many lives lost, no matter how good the news is, it’s hard to cheer.
"It seems that the murderer wanted to destroy the body and eliminate traces before leaving, so he set fire to this place." Ji Ze looked around and pointed at a mark of fire and said, "The house was burned down to ashes, they should He has been gone for a long time."
Lin Fan pursed his lips, his throat moved, and pursed his lips again: "Let's go look for any survivors."
After saying that, he buried his head and rushed to the house next to him.
"..." Lu Xinyuan opened his mouth, but still didn't say anything disappointing and asked Binze. "Then...shall we go too?"
"Let's go." Ji Ze sighed softly, "It's good to go and take a look. At least you can feel at ease." Melinir kept frowning and glanced at the corpses on the ground before following him.
There are forty or fifty houses in the small village. Several people searched separately and quickly saw them all.
Lin Fan felt complicated, a little frustrated, a little powerless, and also felt guilty that if she had been faster, she might have been able to stop this tragedy.
“I feel really uncomfortable, why not do something within my ability.” Xing Ze was not comforted by seeing her like this.
"...I want to help them put out the fire and put them all in place." Lin Fan whispered.
Of course she knows that death is like a lamp going out and everyone is gone. Who else cares about these superficial things? But she just wanted to do something for these strangers.
"Okay," Binze nodded and chuckled encouragingly, "I'll help you."
"And me!" Lu Xinyuan was not to be outdone.
"Yeah." This is Melinir.
Where there are villages, there must be water sources. The four of them separated again, looking for water and an open space suitable for digging a hole.
Soon, Lu Xinyuan saw a lake not far outside the village.
"Lin Jian! There is someone here!" He shouted to the village with joy, but the next second, he shouted and ran forward again. "No! She's going to jump into the river!"
When Lin Fan heard the sound and rushed there, there were only ripples on the lake, and Lu Xinyuan had already jumped in.
After a long wait, Lu Xinyuan showed his head.
"How is it?" Lin Fan asked anxiously without seeing anyone else.
“No,” Lu Xinyuan wiped his face, “She struggled fiercely, as if she was seeking death. I couldn’t hold her underwater...”
He didn’t finish his words. , there was a splash of water, and Lin Fan had disappeared.
Lu Xinyuan took a deep breath and followed again.
Xinze withdrew his eyes from the gradually calming water and looked at the expressionless Melinir with interest. "Aren't you worried?"
Melinir shook his head: "Don't worry, Lin Jian is very strong."
"Oh?"
Xin Ze has been guarding the leaves of the world on the Noah. Except for Lin Fan and Cen Fangyuan, She had almost no social interaction with other people, and the only knowledge she knew about Lin Fan was that she contained abundant energy in her body, had supernatural powers, and was the captain of the Noah. There are many, he really doesn't know.
Now seeing Melinir’s unconditional trust, curiosity arose spontaneously.
"What kind of strong method?" Xingze asked with a smile, "Can you tell me about it?"
Melinir still looked at him expressionlessly, slowly turned to the lake, and said two words lightly.
“No.”
Ha! interesting.
Bi Ze moved his fingers slightly, and looked at the lake as well, without saying a word.
Soon, the lake surface became rippled, and Lin Fan lifted the pale Lu Xinyuan and pulled a person whose appearance he could not see clearly out of the water.
"Quick! Help!"
Cool down! Cool down!
The wind brought into the house by the rain the day before yesterday was still hot, but today it is already cool.
Finally I don’t have to turn on the air conditioner early in the morning.
At first glance, it’s already mid-August. It seems like the temperature should be cooling down, right?
It’s really hot this summer. Today's temperature is just like previous years.
There is thunder rumbling outside. I hope the rain lasts longer and there is more cool breeze.
Autumn is coming soon!
