Chapter 245 245. Strange Village (8)
Everyone returned to the old lady’s yard. The old lady was no longer sitting under the apricot tree, she must have entered the room.
The six people entered their respective rooms and started eating.
Lin Xi summoned the unfinished juice from the last dungeon, and ate the ham between the two pieces of bread he brought this time. He then took out a carton of milk and prepared to eat and drink before going to bed.
"Are we really not going out tonight?" Guo Yuelang asked.
"Will you be considered a ghost if you go out? Then the wizard will catch the ghosts, and those caught will be used in sacrifices tomorrow?" Lin Xi asked with a smile.
Actually, she knew, she just asked on purpose.
Guo Yuelang understood what Lin Xi meant and smiled without saying anything.
"If that's the case, then save it! Although the audience's impressions in the live broadcast room are important, and rewards are also important, your own life is more important." Lin Xi said.
——123 You have learned to shut our mouths.
——Yes, I was just about to say that if we don’t go out at night, we will definitely be bored.
——I have to say now, if you don’t go out at night, I will spend money to go to other dungeons.
——Are you cheap? You can leave if you want, but you still have to say something.
——Yes, I hate people who go out of their way to say something about it. You can stay or leave as you please. There is really no need to say anything.
——Don’t curse, he said that on purpose and may not leave.
——Anyway, I think it’s too much to ask players according to my own ideas. Of course, players should mainly focus on safe clearance.
——Yes, could it be that it makes everyone feel excited and deliberately goes out to make trouble?
Lin Xi just smiled and ignored the dispute in the live broadcast room.
She is used to it. Wherever there are people, there are fights. You can't fight with real swords and guns in life, but you can yell at each other online, and a verbal fight is also a war.
Lin Xi and Guo Yuelang came to the next room together.
Lu Yuan went to the only toilet outside, and Li Tiantian was there by herself.
"Tiantian, do you want to come over and live with us?" Lin Xi asked softly.
After all, she is a girl, so it may not be convenient to live with Lu Yuan.
"It doesn't matter, let me go with Brother Lu!" Li Tiantian said with a smile and asked again. "Wait, are we going to ask the old lady a question?"
"Yes." Guo Yuelang said. "We are all here, let's go and ask together."
Li Tiantian seemed to want to ask something, but thought for a moment and didn't ask.
But the audience in Linxi’s live broadcast room couldn’t help it.
——Six ghosts appeared in front of the old lady, wouldn’t they scare her?
——The old lady is the ghost, they are human beings, okay?
——But the old lady doesn’t know, she will think they are ghosts.
——I have a question. Can living people in the village see dead people during the day?
——I have a question, can the dead in the village see the living during the day?
——They should be living in peace, everyone can see it. Otherwise, we would know that many people died in the village.
——That’s actually quite good.
——It’s good, this is an illusion maintained by the wizard. Once the witchcraft ceases to exist, the living people in the village will suffer a greater blow. ——Are those living people not aware that their relatives are dead?
——It should be.
——Don’t take it seriously. For players, the most important thing is to pass the level. For us, it depends on how players pass the level.
——That’s right.
When Lu Yuan came back from the toilet, he called Dayang and Xiaodong again, and the six of them walked to the north room where the old lady had the lights on.
——No player asked Guo Xinxin if it would scare the old lady.
——The more you ask, the more Guo Xinxin will answer.
——If you talk too much, you might hit a taboo in any sentence.
——The players in this session are very close to each other.
——To be honest, I quite like this kind of player.
——I like them individually, but I don’t like them all together.
——Me too, I need some careless players to provide me with exciting scenes.
——That’s right, if the players are too good at playing, the audience will be bored.
Guo Yuelang knocked lightly on the door. The old woman opened the door from the inside and saw the six of them with a very calm expression on her face.
The old lady didn’t let them into the house, but walked out and still sat under the apricot tree.
The moon is very round and bright, shining on everyone's face.
"You came here during the day?" The old lady spoke first.
"Yes." Guo Yuelang replied.
"Grandma, can you tell us the story of Pei Hong and Jing Feng?" Lin Xi asked.
Pei Hong and Jing Feng were the names of the two people they found in the ancestral hall.
The old lady sighed softly when she heard these two names.
"Peihong is a child picked up by an old sister who is about my age in the village. That old sister, like me, also lives alone. Since having Peihong, life has gained a lot more hope. , having fun every day . Later, when Peihong grew up, she became the most charming girl in our village, and the matchmaker also crossed the threshold. But who knew that the patriarch's stupid son actually fell in love with Peihong and insisted on marrying her as his wife. .
The patriarch’s son has After marrying his cousin, he wanted to marry Peihong by force. Of course, Peihong and her grandmother were unwilling. But who knew that the patriarch's son actually brought several people to Peihong's home and kidnapped Peihong, and even injured Peihong. Grandma. Many people in the village were dissatisfied, but they had no choice. The patriarch’s son had not been very smart since he was a child. Besides, the patriarch was very powerful in the village, and everyone dared not speak out. Only a month later, the old lady passed away. "
The old lady wiped it with her lapel. Wipe your tears and move on.
“Actually, the patriarch’s son didn’t understand anything at all. It was the patriarch himself who fell in love with Peihong. But when Peihong arrived at the patriarch’s house, she refused to obey and insisted that she was following the patriarch’s son. For three days There were a lot of quarrels in the village at that time, including the clan leader's. His face was dull, so he stopped thinking for a while. Jing Feng was a carpenter from another village and went to work at the clan leader's house. He sympathized with Pei Hong's plight and wanted to take Pei Hong away from the clan leader when he was unprepared. I didn’t want to be seen by the patriarch, so I was arrested.”
The old lady looked at the moon in the sky.
"That day was also the 14th, and the moon was so bright. The patriarch called several respected old people in the village and said that Peihong had an affair with Jing Feng and wanted to kill his son. The next day happened to be When they caught up with the sacrifice, they used the two of them as sacrifices and burned them alive," the old woman said.
“How disgusting!” Li Tiantian said and asked again. "Isn't there anyone in your village who can speak for them?"
"The patriarch's stupid son snatched Peihong and injured her grandmother. Everyone originally sympathized with Peihong. But as soon as it happened For this matter, everyone is swarming to blame Pei Hong for being unruly, but few people can really speak for her," the old lady said.
“You didn’t say anything either?” Xiaodong asked.
The old lady smiled and said, "I had just died a few days ago, and my soul was wandering around the village all day long. I knew that Pei Hong and Jing Feng had no affair, but that the patriarch hated Pei Hong for not only disobeying him, but for making things worse." , I deliberately wanted to kill her, but how can I speak to a dead person?"
