Chapter 214 The Rules of Laogui Village
In this world, there are always people who are dissatisfied with the world.
All the sufferings encountered are blamed on the injustice of this world.
So, there was the villainous act of destroying the world.
In fact, in Yu Qian's eyes, there is nothing wrong with this. Real fairness is to bring everyone to the same level.
Let everyone feel despair and pain, this is called fairness.
But everything must come first, first served.
Damn it, his plan hasn’t been completed yet, why are you jumping out to the world at this time?
Isn’t this a slap in the face?
Forbearance is definitely unbearable. He has come to this point and there is no way he can give in no matter what.
Looking at the old ghost village not far away, he definitely couldn't stay in this village, but unfortunately, he seemed to be trapped here.
The longer you stay here, the farther you get from reality.
But it seems that he can wait for a happy ending.
Yu Qian touched his chin, looked back at the mountain road he came from, and thought for a while before heading towards the old ghost village.
He has not tried a few big ghosts at once, so he will give it a try this time. It should not be considered a 50-50, but a 37-7.
"Destroy the world? What are the benefits of this?" Yanzhi leaned on Yu Qian's head and asked extremely puzzled.
"I don't know. Anyway, I can't think of any benefits. I guess it's just spiritual satisfaction." Yu Qian thought for a while and said.
“Similar to obsession?”
“Absolutely, it should be this kind of thing.”
“That’s really boring, not as interesting as cake.”
One big and one small walked towards the old ghost village.
It seems that in front of most villages, there is a big old tree with red cloth strips hanging on it.
Red cloth strips sway in the wind, and behind each red cloth strip represents a godson.
It is popular in the old thinking to worship a godfather. Of course, the person worshiping a godfather is not a person, but a tree, an animal, or the land.
It seems that in this way, my son can grow up in peace, without being tortured by illness or disaster, and the family will be much smoother.
The old feudal people are superstitious.
There is also a tree like this in front of the old ghost village. It is an old tree. The old tree is thick and has burrs on its branches. It looks a bit ferocious.
There are no red cloth strips hanging on the tree, but black wooden signs.
"Sun Jiuyi, 43, male."
Yu Qian softly read out the content on a wooden sign hanging low where it was easiest to see.
"It's a bit like a spiritual tablet." Yanzhi looked at the densely packed signs on the big tree. When the wind blew, the wooden signs collided and tinkled, like wind chimes.
"Maybe it is."
Yu Qian looked away, and footsteps suddenly sounded in front of the old tree. Yu Qian looked along the sound and saw an old woman carrying a wooden basket walking slowly towards this place. Come along.
“Want to enter the village?”
The old woman stopped in front of Yu Qian, raised her head and looked at Yu Qian hard.
"Maybe." Yu Qian did not say for sure whether he wanted to enter the village.
"You still have to go in and have a look. After all, we are very hospitable." The old lady invited with a smile.
Yu Qian said nothing, looking down at the old man's hands behind his back.
Three fingers are missing, and only the index finger and ring finger are left. The old man's hand is considered useless.
“When I was twelve years old, I cut off my thumb without paying attention when cutting firewood. At the age of fifteen, while cutting pigweed, my middle finger was bitten by a snake. It's rotten, so I have no choice but to chop it off. I was feeding pigs, and the ring finger was bitten by the pigs." The old woman stretched out her left hand behind her back and explained the reason for the missing finger with emotion.
Looking at the two lonely fingers on the old man's hand, he didn't say anything, just looked at it, thinking about something in his heart.
The old man's clothes are very normal peasant clothes. There is nothing wrong with him. He speaks in a dialect, with an accent from Sichuan.
Yu Qian understands it and understands what it means.
Yu Qian didn't want to be so sophisticated and said nothing. Yanzhi looked at the old man's hand, was silent for a while, and said sorry.
The old man shook his head magnanimously and said he didn't care, "If you want to enter the village, hang a sign on the village tree to ensure safety."
As he spoke, the old man took out two black wooden plaques from the wooden basket and handed them to Rouge.
Rouge stared at the two wooden signs, hesitated for a while and then took them.
The wooden sign is not heavy and has a rough texture. I don’t know what kind of black wood it is made of.
The style is the same as the wooden sign on the big tree, there is no difference.
"Why is it called the Village Tree?" Yu Qian was a little surprised when he heard the name of the Village Tree. This name shouldn't be on the tree.
"You're talking about this. It's not a big deal. It's just the tree planted by the last village guard in our village. Now that he's gone, we call it the village guard tree. It's been a few years."
Looking at the old tree full of knots, the old man's eyes were full of memories.
“Speaking of which, this tree looked like this when I was a child. Now that I am old, it still looks like this. Maybe when I die, it will still look like this.”
To be honest, this tree doesn't look very good. The tumors all over the tree are like a black lump of dog shit on a person's face, which is unsightly.
But this tree may have witnessed the founding of this village.
Yu Qian looked at the tree and quickly looked back at the old man: "May I ask, what is your surname?"
"Not expensive, not expensive." The old man quickly used the hand with two fingers left. After posing, "My surname is Fang, you can just call me Granny Fang."
Fang is a very common surname. Yu Qian searched quickly in his mind for a while and found that there was no such person. memory.
"Does it take longer?"
Some of the crashed people may not have been reported, and what appears in the news reports may be just one of those digits.
"Grandma Fang, are there any people in the village who are different from you? For example, do they have blonde or red hair?" Yu Qian thought for a moment and asked such a question.
Hearing Yu Qian's question, Granny Fang fell into thinking. After a while, she shook her head: "They are all the same, there is no difference."
"Like this Ah." Yu Qian nodded and looked at the wooden signs hanging on the trees again. After scanning around among the dense wooden signs, Yu Qian found forty wooden signs with the surname Fang, including men and women. Women, ranging in age from young to old.
For a while, Yu Qian couldn't tell which wooden sign the old man had.
But he focused on three wooden cards.
Fang Xiaoxiao, 15, female.
Fang Xiaotong, 15, female.
Fang Qian, 15, female.
They are all women. I contacted the old man and said that she lost her thumb when she was fifteen years old. If the inference is correct, the old man should be one of these three.
“If you want to enter the village, hang up a wooden sign and write your name and age. The village tree will protect you.”
The old man gave a warning before leaving, and then walked along the path they came from.
The figure gradually faded away, Yu Qian stood still, Rouge wrinkled her face and frowned.
After the old man's figure disappeared into the path, Yanzhi said with a cold face: "We seem to be moving towards the past."
"Well, I feel it, my clone is with me I lost contact. It has only been a few minutes, and I have lost most of the contact with my clone."
The two top ghost masters have an extremely keen sense of time.
"But it seems a bit like he is entering a deeper level of ghosts. We still have to see if the time is up."
Some things cannot be finalized. Although he is invading here, the journey is not very long. It was smooth, but it couldn't be confirmed that they were walking towards the past.
Rouge nodded, looked down at the sign in his hand, and then looked at the gnarled tree, "Do you really want to hang it up? From what the old guy said, it seems like we won't be able to get in unless we hang it up. The village, or entering the village will be in danger "Danger."
"We are not afraid of danger, but we are afraid of not being able to get in."
Looking at the troubled Rouge, Yu Qian took the wooden sign with his finger on it. I started writing, Yu Qian, 20, male.
Then the wooden sign was hung directly in a slightly higher position where you could directly see what was written on it.
After doing all this, Yu Qian waited for a while. The old tree was still swaying in the wind, the wooden signs were colliding, and the bells were tinkling.
Nothing seems to be happening.
Yu Qian frowned slightly, "Am I wrong?"
But at the next moment, Yu Qian suddenly lowered his head and saw Granny Fang, who had just left, appearing at some point. Next to Yu Qian.
Granny Fang looked up at Yu Qian with a smile on her face, "Okay, okay, okay! What a good boy, thank you, Granny."
The old man reached out and grabbed Yu Qian's hand, and something strange happened. , the thumb, middle finger, and ring finger of the hand held by the old man were all separated. In just a blink of an eye, these three fingers were caught by the old man.
The old man looked at the three straight and slender fingers in his hand, his eyes full of greed, "It's finally my turn, it's finally my turn!"
The old man murmured to himself, feeling a little emotional. Losing control, her eyes became moist, as if she was as excited as getting these three fingers to see her dead parents.
"Good boy, your mother-in-law will remember your kindness."
The old man looked at Yu Qian, his face no longer as kind as before.
As he spoke, the old man picked up his fingers and directly planned to place them where his fingers were missing.
“In this old ghost village, if you want to leave, you must make up for your own shortcomings. You can do it by cheating or robbing. As long as you can get the new arrivals to hang the wooden sign on the tree, that’s it. , the old lady has been waiting for so many years, and finally it’s here. In order to leave this ghost place, I I haven’t had a peaceful night’s sleep!”
“My good boy, my mother-in-law will remember you, and your kindness will be remembered forever.”
The old man looked at Yu Qian, with a look on his face. Full of madness, he put two fingers on his hand while speaking.
Yu Qian's fingers were slender and straight, which looked extremely disharmonious when placed on the old man's hand, but the strange thing was that after the fingers were placed on them, they seemed to fit.
An indescribable weird feeling.
Yu Qian looked at the excited and crazy old man, thoughtfully, and finally understood what the old boatman was referring to when he said it would be better to be more disabled.
It turns out to be this.
Yanzhi looked at the crazy old man and shook his head, with some sympathy. It would be great to leave well, but he wanted to come back to seek death. He even wanted to commit suicide, but he talked so much nonsense.
Bad luck.
"It's okay, I will remember you too."
Yu Qian suddenly said this, and the old man was slightly stunned, a little confused.
But the next moment, the old man saw an afterimage passing by, and then nothing happened.
The old man blinked, wondering if he was dazzled. He was about to raise his hand to rub his eyes, but the moment he raised his hand, the old man's pupils shrank instantly.
"It tastes terrible."
A complaint sounded, followed by the sounds of chewing and swallowing. The old man looked up in shock and saw that the last finger had just slipped into the mouth of the young man in front of him.
Seeing this scene, the old man felt as if he had been struck by lightning, with a look of disbelief on his face, "How is that possible! How can you move!"
"It's impossible, everyone is hanging up the wooden After placing the sign, he will be immobilized for a period of time, even if there is no wooden sign, as long as..."
At this point, the old man suddenly stopped, as if he was being strangled by the neck, unable to speak. She looked at Yu Qian with a look of horror in her eyes.
"You didn't put up the wooden sign at all, you were trying to catch me out!"
The old man seemed to have guessed the truth, but in an instant, her eyes turned sinister.
"Okay, okay, I didn't expect that I, Fang Qian, have been living in the peripheral world for decades without missing a single part. As a result, I lost my hands today in front of you, a newcomer. Very good, very good, I, Fang Qian, remember you!" "
As he said that, the old man looked at Yu Qian hatefully, turned around and planned to leave directly.
Yu Qian looked at Fang Qian playfully, "Who told you you can leave?"
Fang Qian's body suddenly stagnated. She turned back and looked at Yu Qian: "What else do you want? You have already taken my hands, what else do you want to do?"
"This is the perimeter. Not the inner circle. If you want to take the rest of my parts, the big tree will not agree, and I will not make a bet with you." The old man looked at Yu Qian with dark eyes, full of resentment.
"Just that broken tree? Do you think it dares to move?"
Yu Qian nodded at the gnarled tree. As Yu Qian said these words, the A tree that was still swaying in the wind suddenly stopped. The wooden signs that collided with the tree were strangely motionless. Some of them simply froze in the air, violating the laws of physics.
Fang Qian looked at the weird big tree and was stunned in place. After living here for so many years, this was the first time she had seen this tree like this.
"Look, it's so obedient. If I tell it not to move, it won't move." Yu Qian licked his lips and looked at the old man jokingly.
The old man swallowed and subconsciously stepped back, but as soon as she took a step back, she felt her back bump into someone.
She subconsciously turned her head to look. When she saw clearly who was behind her, she opened her mouth and was speechless for a long time.
How could...how could there be two identical people?
"Stop playing around and quickly ask what is going on in this village. After asking, start making arrangements." Yanzhi rolled his eyes. Yu Qian's bad taste is really vulgar. He knows how to bully these people. Knowledgeable garbage.
"I know, there's still time. It will take time for those ghosts to invade." Even so, Yu Qian didn't play any more. Seeing an old woman panicking and losing her mind was not a good look.
The next second, the old man's eyes fell into darkness. The clone licked his lips, then turned around and disappeared into the darkness.
Yu Qian began to check the old man's memory.
The more I looked at Yu Qian, the more interested I became. It was really interesting that there was such a place of helplessness.
“Show me too.” Yanzhi suddenly became interested when she saw Yu Qian was so interested.
Yu Qian did not refuse and shared the memory. After just looking at it for a while, Rouge's eyes lit up.
"This place is quite suitable for a bastard like Ye Zhen. He can do whatever he doesn't like, gamble on luck, cheat newcomers, tsk tsk, he's got the idea." Yanzhi grinned, her face full of expectation. color.
Betting on parts, cheating on parts, everything is possible. It is really suitable for the two of them to have fun. (End of this chapter)
