Yi Town (4)(1/2)
The mayor and his wife were forcibly taken to the child by the faith bird... The child in the cellar showed up for the first time by poking his head out of the jar and trying to drag the white cicada in. This shows how tragic they died last night, most of whom were stuffed into the jar and suffocated to death.
And the culprit of everything is swearing that he just wants to give his children a home, how can he wash it?
Faced with Liu Tianming's questioning, Bai Chan said calmly: "It not only fulfilled NPC's wishes, but also successfully obtained clues. Everything he did was more for the team."
“…”
Liu Tianming had nothing to say.
After sighing for a moment, Qi Tianhe's "kind heart" players' focus is still on the clues that Zhu Shuse said. The information collection volume did not reach 50%, and the special branch line could not be opened. Zhu Shuse seemed to know this and would not hesitate to share some clues for the time being.
"According to children, many people are not full during drought, and the birds often hover in the air and throw down some wild fruits. Therefore, they are regarded as a god to save them. Every day, people sit at the entrance of the town and wait for the birds to come."
Zhu Zhaoyu couldn't figure it out: "They can definitely follow the birds to find fruit trees."
Zhu Shuse asked his younger brother to think about it for a second before asking a question next time and then speak: "I must have found it nearby, not to mention that the range of birds is much farther than that of people."
Zhu Zhaoyu curled his lips: "What's next?"
Zhu Shuse showed a strange smile: "The drought has lasted for a long time. At first, I believe in birds as the god in people's hearts, but it still rained a few months later. In their eyes, I believe in birds is no longer a god."
Zhu Zhaoyu: "What is it not a god?"
Zhu Shuse looked at him coldly.
Zhu Zhaoyu smiled in disappointment and scratched her head to show that she would think independently.
"Food." Qi Tianhe said coldly.
Zhu Zhaoyu was stunned: "No way? If Xinbird hadn't delivered food to them, many townsmen would have starved to death long ago."
At this time, Bai Chan suddenly said indifferently: "If it weren't for your sister, you would have died long ago."
Zhu Zhaoyu just doesn’t like thinking, which doesn’t mean he has no brains. He has seen many dark things in the dungeon. Then he realized that even if he believes in the birds are really mountain gods, he will be treated as food when he is extremely hungry.
"At present, this should be considered the main storyline," Zhu Shuse: "The core is revenge. The bird of faith brings fruits but is revengeed by kindness. After death, the resentment remains unshakable. The townspeople who received the feathers are forced to share and receive... However, the role played by this child in it remains to be explored."
She had a feeling that maybe the child was the core of the story.
Qi Tianhe looked up at the sky: "I don't know whose feathers will fall into later."
White cicada: "Feathers are just a form and cannot be repeated forever."
Liu Tianming also nodded: "The copy of the s-level difficulty level, the death rule will not be as gentle as it is now."
The master repaired the window and came out, and asked Qi Tianhe to go up and check it out. Qi Tianhe repeatedly said no, but the master said that if there are any problems, he could come to see him at any time and he would rework for free.
Looking at the master's back as he left sweat, Qi Tianhe sighed: "No wonder the people in Yi Town are so friendly, and everyone is afraid of leaving a bad impression in others' hearts."
"Some things cannot be solved by being friendly," Zhu Zhaoyu said in a particularly gossipy tone: "The owner of the house where I live said that his neighbor next door once received a cuckold from a friend."
“…”
Zhu Zhaoyu told them the whole process with relish, because they were all waiting for the feathers to return, and everyone had nothing to do now, and sat on the side of the road and listened to him.
Before dusk came, a man and a woman came in front of him, and Zhu Zhaoyu suddenly shut up.
The mayor and his wife were holding a big black umbrella and appeared within the field of sight of everyone, which was a different direction from the previous retrospective.
"I'm going back to have supper before dusk." The mayor had long lost his kind eyes and emphasized with a stern look.
Zhu Zhaoyu always felt that their condition was a bit strange, especially when facing Qi Tianhe and Bai Chan, strong hostility was about to overflow, and he couldn't help but ask implicitly: "Do you think their expressions are complicated?"
As a professional psychologist, Qi Tianhe gave an accurate translation: "I'm tired, tired, let's destroy it."
"..." Zhu Zhaoyu was first surprised that NPC seemed to have died, and then thought, in the good weather without wind and rain, which living person was almost holding an umbrella in the evening.
Qi Tianhe had long felt that the mayor and his wife were in abnormal condition. They were different from other townsmen and did not deliberately please the players. It was like Xiao Wu carefully prepared three meals a day, and the mayor's house was hard to drink even the saliva.
The mayor's wife walked up with her husband, stared at Bai Chan and said in a cold voice: "Jiguo soup has been cooked."
Bai Chan's attitude seemed to not take the terrifying couple seriously at all, and yawned: "Then let's go back."
However, his legs didn't even move away and he just stood against the wall.
In the stalemate atmosphere, the world suddenly became red. The red color was very unnatural, not the traditional burning clouds, and the temperature of the air also increased a certain degree.
According to the normal backtracking point, it should be a warm orange-yellow sky at this moment. It is obvious that the game adjusted certain elements during the second backtracking.
The size of the feathers continues to expand, and they merge into the sea of clouds like a swimming whale. When it reaches its peak, this beauty flashes by, one black and one red, two overlapping feathers ignited in the air. In the moment of blinking, they burned into ashes and sprinkled from the air.
Bai Chan watched the scene coldly and said to the mayor and his wife: "It seems that there is no need for dinner today, and no one will receive feathers."
The mayor's expression seemed to have seen a ghost, and he kept repeating, "Here is here, come again..."
The two of them had no domineering spirit when they first came to threaten people. They held the big black umbrella and ran back. Qi Tianhe looked at the monster worried and reminded him: "Be careful to break the leg."
"What are you all doing around my doorstep?" Xiao Wu suddenly poked his head out of the kitchen window and asked Qi Tianhe to go in quickly.
As if he was afraid of something going on, he walked directly to the main hall to open the door and pulled Qi Tianhe outside. As soon as the man entered, Xiao Wu immediately closed the door heavily and locked it.
The players outside the house gradually dispersed and returned to their respective places.
Xiao Wu panicked and took a walk around the backyard. After returning, he reinforced the yard and inserted many glass pieces on the wall. Qi Tianhe waited until he was almost finished and said, "What happened?"
Xiao Wu's eyes dodged a little: "The weather may not be very good recently, so make some preparations in advance."
The preface and afterwords sounded no logic at all. Qi Tianhe glanced at the direction of the backyard and asked, "There are also cellars here?"
Xiao Wu stammered and said, "Every family in the town has it. I have it before, but it has not been demolished."
Back in the kitchen, Xiao Wu seized the time to bring the fish he had prepared before. The two dishes that he had originally wanted to fry were carefully collected. Xiao Wu seemed to have a particularly good appetite tonight, and even eating two bowls of white rice was not afraid of keeping himself over.
After dinner, Xiao Wu did not rush upstairs like he usually sat quietly in the living room, as if he was going to sleep on the sofa tonight.
Qi Tianhe stared at the back of his head for a while, and understood that the other party was afraid that he would run away, so he was following him.
After midnight, the temperature still showed no sign of falling, and the bed became slightly hot. In this environment, people wish they could even dig the ceiling, so it was impossible to close the windows and doors.
Qi Tianhe was holding a small shovel and fell asleep halfway. He woke up in the middle of the night. It was still dark outside. He kicked off the quilt beside him and turned around. He never thought that there was someone standing outside the door, looking at this place motionlessly.
No matter how much I saw it, it was horrible enough to see this scene in the middle of the night. Qi Tianhe let out a sigh and relieved his heartbeat. He clenched the shovel quietly: "Is there anything wrong?"
Xiao Wu stared at him for a while, then said nothing and turned downstairs.
Not sure if the other party will come up again. Qi Tianhe originally wanted to release the corpse dog out to watch the night. He thought that if he summoned at critical moments, a momentary shock might help his life. It would be safer to keep it as a trump card for the time being.
I thought I was unlikely to fall asleep in the middle of the night after experiencing this episode, but I didn’t expect that with the blessing of high temperature, my head was drowsy and I fell into a drowsy shortly after.
When he woke up, the sun shone brightly, Qi Tianhe's skin next to the windowsill was burned red. He jumped up and looked at the time, confirming that it was less than nine o'clock now.
The sun outside is completely comparable to noon.
Qi Tianhe was sweating all over his body, and his original intention was to take a cold shower. Unexpectedly, even if the temperature was adjusted to the lowest, the water flowing out of the shower was hot.
Xiao Wu seemed to have not slept all night, sitting on the sofa, not going out to buy breakfast like usual. Qi Tianhe wanted to go out and find out the situation, and took the initiative to ask: "I'll buy tofu brain."
Xiao Wu: "Never nearby stores will be open in the near future."
When Qi Tianhe asked about the abnormal temperature, Xiao Wu gave a very perfunctory answer: "It happens for a while every year."
After hearing this, Qi Tianhe had a bad premonition. Before leaving the copy, the temperature returned to normal is unlikely.
He was about to go out and take a walk when he found several thick chains wrapped around the door and solid wooden boards were nailed to the window. The only thing he didn't care about was the back door, which directly leads to the backyard, but the backyard wall is reinforced very firmly.
In contrast to the hot weather, Xiao Wu's tone was chilly: "I won't be able to float my feathers these days, and the people in the town are very restless. It's not safe for you to go out."
Qi Tianhe felt that it was dangerous to stay, but he didn't say that.
In just one morning, some of the green vegetables planted in the backyard became wilted. As a matter of fact, the food was not too scarce. After all, there were a lot of them in the cellar. However, there were a lot of red feathers at the entrance of the cellar. The temperature of the entire cellar was only lower than that outside.
Some dishes will soon deteriorate if they don’t eat them. Xiao Wu began to eat frantically. He was not stingy with sharing. He also asked Qi Tianhe to eat them every day, and the more you eat, the better.
Qi Tianhe felt that he was raising himself as a pig until he heard the sound of sharpening a knife in the kitchen, thinking that he might have been raised as a reserve grain.
Xiao Wu has not done anything that threatens Qi Tianhe's personal safety for the time being. The strange temperature in the cellar is increasing day by day, and he can hold on for two more days. Apart from freedom, Qi Tianhe's living standards are not much different from before.
All the TV stations stopped broadcasting, and the whole town was dead and could not even hear the birds' screams. He lay in his room every day, feeling that even the end of the world might not be so dead.
The excessive quiet was broken at noon when the food was gradually in short supply. Xiao Wu provided less food to Qi Tianhe at the dinner table. Yizhen was powered off this morning, and the air-dried meat and sausages they had reserved were so hard that they could not be chewed.
Qi Tianhe was eating slowly, pretending not to see Xiao Wu swallowing, occasionally staring at his throat.
A knock on the door sounded.
Fearing that he was coming to grab food, Xiao Wu's hungry wolf-like eyes suddenly became a little nervous. He picked up the kitchen knife that had been polished in the kitchen and walked carefully to the door: "Who?"
The people outside didn't say anything, and the knock on the door continued.
Xiao Wu hesitated whether to open the door, and asked who it was with a high pitch.
The knock on the door became louder and louder, and it was about to break into the door. Xiao Wu asked who it was a little hysterically. At this time, a leisurely voice came from outside the door: "It's me."
Qi Tianhe, who was sitting at the table, raised his eyebrows... Bai Chan?
How does the opponent's appearance look the same as the legendary knocker?
Xiao Wu quickly walked to the window, roared in his throat through the gap in the door panel, and asked him what purpose he had.
Bai Chan's tone showed weakness: "I think something is wrong with the mayor, and he escaped because he was very scared. Can you take me in?"
Qi Tianhe and Xiaowu were silent at the same time. After a while, Xiaowu turned out a few more wooden boards, and even the gaps in the window were nailed to death.
Qi Tianhe could guess some of his thoughts. At this time, the townsmen kept strict supervision of the players and did not rule out the possibility of letting the player out of blood when there was no food at all. The chance of escaping alone was very small, so it would be better to say that the mayor took the initiative to "please" him leave.
To be continued...
