Although it was a dark night in the country, I grew up here, so I know the roads and environment very well. It is no exaggeration to say that I could run home even with my eyes closed.
What Liu Laoguai said before reminded me that if my mother and Aunt Liu really come back, they are most likely in the same situation as Liu Sanbo, which means they have...
I didn’t dare to think any further. If that were the case, my mother and Aunt Liu would definitely go home...
A few minutes later, I finally returned home, and the door to the yard was open at this time. My heart sank, and I rushed in with a single stride.
"Shi Ting!"
"Shi Ting!"
I shouted before I entered the door. As soon as I entered the room, I saw a person lying on the bed with a quilt covering him. I walked to the bed anxiously and looked down, and I felt relieved.
.
It was Yan Shiting who was lying on the bed. Her eyes trembled slightly and she slowly opened her eyes.
"Xiaoyu...you are back..."
"Well, I'm back..."
"Just... someone came to the house just now..."
"Someone is coming?!"
I was so shocked by Yan Shiting's words that my whole body trembled, and my heart that had just been put down immediately picked up again!
"Who's coming?!"
Yan Shiting didn't speak. She seemed very weak and just looked behind me with her eyes.
My heart trembled, and I slowly turned my head to look behind me, but I was stunned at this sight.
Perhaps because I had focused my attention on Yan Shiting lying on the bed as soon as I entered the room, I didn't realize that there was a person sitting upright on the chair against the wall!
His body is full of death!
In the dark room, this person was sitting on a chair, her hands naturally hanging down on her legs, but the strange thing was that he seemed to be covered in a thin layer of shadow from head to toe, like
It's a shadow, not to mention the appearance. I can't even tell the difference between male and female.
I subconsciously lowered my head and looked at his legs again. I saw that his lower body was intact, and I was sure that he was not a halfling. However, I found that his feet could clearly land completely on the ground, but they only touched the ground with their toes, while their heels were hanging in the air.
of…
He sat there motionless, as if he was staring at me.
"Who are you?" I took a few steps forward and asked softly.
The man didn't say anything, he just sat there upright.
"mom?"
I summoned up the courage to give a tentative shout.
Seeing that he didn't respond, I guessed again:
"Aunt Liu?"
He still had no reaction.
Just when I was about to take a step forward, Yan Shiting's frightened voice suddenly sounded from behind me.
"Xiaoyu! Look what's outside?!"
I was startled and quickly turned around to look, only to see those half-length figures appearing again on the wall of the brick-walled courtyard!
They gathered on top of the wall, leaning forward, one on top of another, feeling like they were about to enter the yard.
I felt a chill in my heart. Didn't they follow the goddess to Liu Sanbo's house? Why did they suddenly come to my house again?
I seemed to have thought of something, and turned around to stare at the person sitting on the chair in front of me. Could it be that this group of people came for him?
But now I can’t tolerate thinking so much. Now that he’s come to my door, there’s no need for me to hide him!
I reached into my backpack and pulled out a handful of copper beans...
"Well... uh... um..."
But at this moment, the person sitting on the chair in front of me suddenly made a strange noise. I looked up at him and was surprised to find that his whole body was trembling. I felt that he wanted to speak, but couldn't. Finally, he slowly slowed down.
Raising one hand to gesture something...
He stretched out a finger and hung it in the air, slowly drawing a horizontal line, then a vertical line, and so on...
"ten?"
I couldn't help but mutter, and the man seemed to hear my voice and slowly put his hands on his legs again.
"Xiaoyu..."
Yan Shiting's horrified voice came again. At this time, the figures outside the door had climbed over the courtyard wall and all gathered in the courtyard. I took a deep breath and was about to rush out when I suddenly heard a "creak" sound...
Hearing the sound and looking around, he saw the man sitting on the chair struggling to stand up from the chair, and then walked out of the house with stiff steps, and then melted into the group of layers of halflings.
middle.
Before I could react, the halflings all turned back and left the yard...
I quickly turned around and sat beside the bed and asked Yan Shiting,
"What happened while I was gone?"
At this time, Yan Shiting's energy and energy seemed to have recovered a little,
"Not long after you left, I heard someone knocking on the door outside, but I didn't dare to open the door, so I kept hiding in the house. Later, the person knocking on the door started calling your name..."
"Call my name? Is that person a boy or a girl?" I was a little excited.
"It was a woman, and the voice sounded like that of a middle-aged woman. I thought it was your mother coming back, so I opened the door, but when I opened the door, I found that there was no one outside at all..."
Having said this, Yan Shiting gently grabbed my hand and continued:
"I was so frightened that I hurried back to the house, but when I came back, I saw a black figure sitting on a chair against the wall, the same black figure just now, and then... I fainted from fright and didn't know anything.
."
After listening to Yan Shiting's story, I became even more confused. According to what she said, could the woman she heard calling my name be the dark figure sitting on the chair?
And when I came back, I clearly saw Yan Shiting lying on the bed with a quilt covering her body. Could it be that this was also done by the black shadow?
Who is he? What does the sign of the cross he made before leaving mean?
This series of questions made my head big. What happened in Liujiacun?
Looking at the dark night outside the window, I shook my head helplessly. I must have been unable to think of any clues for a while, so I should wait until tomorrow to see if there are any new clues from Lao Yutou.
I asked Yan Shiting to lie on the bed again, covered her with a quilt, and whispered:
"Shi Ting, you have seen the situation here. The situation is very strange and dangerous. You will leave Liujiacun immediately at dawn tomorrow. Staying here will only distract me."
"Um…"
Yan Shiting responded and slowly closed her eyes.
After a while, her breathing slowly became evener, and she finally fell asleep. I moved a chair and sat beside the bed, and closed my eyes and began to rest. But at this moment, I suddenly fell into a trance.
