Chapter 3 Stone Stele Controlling Beasts(1/3)

"We are neighbors next door. We all live on this floor. We may meet each other sometimes."

"We are planning to discuss and explore the area together to see if we can find food. We all have limited food at home, and we will eventually run out."

"We understand that you have concerns, but in this situation it is better to have more people than just one person, right? We will discuss it in 7-4. If you change your mind, you are always welcome to come to us in room 7-4. Everyone is welcome.

People on Earth who have traveled abroad are all fellow countrymen."

The person outside the house said.

Bai Ye didn't say a word. The voice outside the door did belong to the neighbors, but he didn't know the neighbors well and didn't know their character.

He was hesitating and struggling.

I don't know whether to open the door or join them.

Until the footsteps gradually fade away,

Indeed, as the man outside the door said,

Being able to cuddle up with more people does, in a sense, make you feel more secure.

Moreover, Bai Ye himself doesn’t know much about wilderness survival.

He also doesn't know how to find food in the wild.

Bai Ye couldn't help but think of those giant strange birds falling from the sky.

His eyes flickered, and he finally made up his mind.

However, he did not immediately go to room 7-4 that his neighbor said.

Instead, first find all the things in your home that can be used as weapons.

Scissors bought for 5 yuan from the supermarket, which are usually used to open express delivery; kitchen knives in the kitchen; and a fruit knife in the drawer of the coffee table in the living room. Bai Ye doubted whether it could pierce the thick fur of the beast with its thin blade.

.

Fortunately, in order to save trouble, Bai Ye bought a kitchen knife of good quality and heavy in the palm of his hand.

A heavy kitchen knife feels safer in your hand than a light fruit knife.

Wear several thick layers under your down jacket,

Wrap books with tape to serve as "plate armor."

After finishing the arrangement, Bai Ye took out four candles from the drawer.

Use a little less of this stuff.

But Bai Ye thought of the pine forest outside the building.

The rosin of pine trees can be used as fuel for lighting, and can also be used to light fires for warmth.

In comparison, being the only lighter in the house is more valuable.

Hide the key in a secret place on your body.

Bai Ye lit the candle, took a small bowl, fixed the candle in the bowl with wax, and walked out of the house holding the bowl.

The corridor is empty,

Bai Ye lives in room 7-10, which is at this end, and room 7-4 is in the other direction of the residential building.

When passing by 7-8,

7-8 Suddenly there was a rapid barking in the room.

across a door,

Bai Ye could feel that the owner of the voice was behind the door.

Under the candlelight, the 7-8 black door glowed with a faint luster, and Bai Ye withdrew his gaze.

When I came to 7-4, I knocked on the door three times. Soon I heard footsteps and the door opened.

The door was opened by a woman who looked a little older and was wearing red clothes.

The light of the candle shines on the woman's face,

Her high cheekbones add two points of sharpness to her. She must be quite old, and there are some wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, but it can be seen that she was a beauty when she was young.

Bai Ye looked at her, and she looked at Bai Ye.

Very handsome.

This was her first impression of Bai Ye.

Humans are sensory animals,

The woman nodded slightly,

Turn sideways to give up a position.

"Come in." The woman spoke Mandarin, her words were round and round, and it was very standard.

"I am the owner of 7-4, my name is Dou Juan, you can call me Sister Juan. Welcome to join us, you are the owner of 7-10, right?"

Although the woman asked, she used an affirmative tone.

"Well...I am a tenant of 7-10." Bai Ye thought for a while and replied.

Although you have traveled through time now, there is a high probability that the landlord will no longer be able to collect rent from you.

Dou Juan pursed her lips and chuckled, "It doesn't matter if you say you are the owner now, your landlord can't find you anyway."

Follow Dou Juan to the living room.

Bai Ye saw many people in room 7-4.

The living room has good lighting, the curtains are open and the windows are closed.

Naturally, the candle in my hand was no longer needed.

Bai Ye blew out the candles and scanned the living room without finding an empty seat. He saw some people even sitting cross-legged on the floor.

There were more than twenty people in the living room, and a child about five or six years old was held in the arms of an adult.

There were a lot of people, a mixed crowd.

This was Bai Ye's first feeling.

The living room is also very large, probably the largest apartment in this building.

"There are no benches, so you can sit on the floor. I just mopped the floor last night," Dou Juan said to Bai Ye.

After saying this, Dou Juan walked to the balcony by the window, then turned around and faced everyone in the living room.

Bai Ye sat down cross-legged,

Clang——

The kitchen knife in his pocket fell to the ground.

Everyone's eyes wandered between Bai Ye and the kitchen knife on the ground.

Bai Ye picked it up and put the knife in his chest.

"This is for cutting vegetables." Bai Ye explained.

"Just don't fall out again." Dou Juan said lightly.

Because his back was to the sun, Bai Ye couldn't see Dou Juan's face clearly.

"The owner of the last household on our floor is also here," Dou Juan said.

"There are ten households in total, and they are all here now."

"It's quite a fate that we all live on the same floor and travel together." Dou Juan said.

"What is time travel?" asked an older man in the living room.

Influenced by the Internet, most young and middle-aged people have heard of time travel to some extent.

They are also relatively receptive, but some elderly people have not yet figured out the situation.

Next to her, a young man who looked like her grandson said, "Grandma, it's just that she is no longer in the original world."

The old man was a little hard of hearing, so his grandson repeated it twice before he could hear clearly.

She nodded sadly.

"Oh~ can we still go back?"

"It's probably impossible to go back." Her grandson's voice was low and choked with sobs.

"Grandma is still here. Don't be afraid. Grandma is with you." The old woman patted the back of her grandson's hand and comforted him in turn.

Dou Juan clapped her hands to attract everyone's attention, and then said: "We used to live near a business district, and it was convenient to sell vegetables, so... everyone's family must be relatively short on food."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense. You are such a long-winded bitch. If it wasn't for food, who would have the time to come to your place and waste time?" A short-haired man sitting on the sofa said impatiently.

"Hurry up and tell us how to cooperate, how to divide the work, and how to distribute the food when we find it. While it's still early today, go to the area to explore twice. If we can't do it, we can break up as soon as possible."

"Yeah, hurry up and say it, time is tight."
