"Eh?" The moment Chen Qing left the writing on the paper, his eyes were fixed on the window, but unlike what he expected, the world outside the house was still windy and sandy.
He leaned against the window, with an obvious look of surprise on his face.
"Eh? There's no reason. The only thing that can satisfy those two conditions at the same time is this rule." Chen Qing frowned, puzzled.
But Jiang Wan was behind him with a look of disgust.
"Boss! There are really several dozen-meter donuts running on the ground! That's another kind of horror story, okay?! Five Nights at Freddy's is not as scary as you!"
She gritted her teeth and felt a little sore between her brows, but unlike Jiang Wan's judgment, Chen Qing still believed that her inference was correct.
He turned around, took a set of quilts from the bed, covered his head, and began to prepare to break out of the house.
Seeing this situation, Jiang Wan couldn't help but be a little surprised: "What are you going to do?"
He shook his head and looked into the yellow sand: "Either at the shrine or at the gate."
He said with determination: "Something must have changed. Follow me."
She listened to Chen Qing's words and shook her head helplessly, but he was so sure, so what if he went with him once?
The two of them spread the sheets, and the ticking of falling yellow sand kept ringing in their ears.
They walked to the shrine, and the shrine seemed to have more tentacles.
"The shrine has not changed..."
His expression remained unchanged: "That's the door..."
He said softly, and when the quilt in his hands became heavier and heavier, he decisively walked towards the door.
After a brief stay, the two figures returned to the door. The door was still closed, and the latch on the door locked the door.
He threw the quilt off his head, and his expression became even stranger.
Chen Qing stepped forward, but at this moment, he heard a voice coming from outside the door.
The voices were very faint, but absolutely clear.
Every word in their mouths is enough to be distinguished, and what is in the words and words can be discerned.
Chen Qing listened carefully and heard a few words coming from outside the house.
"War started...failed..."
His eyes were pressed against the crack of the door of the earth building. At this moment, he saw a woman outside the door hurriedly walking towards the door. She stretched out her hand, inserted her fingertips into the crack of the door and pushed forward, pushing forward. At this moment, her thumb was only two or three millimeters away from Chen Qing's eyes. .
Chen Qing jerked violently, and his neck instinctively moved back. However, after more than two seconds passed, he did not see any intention of opening the door.
Chen Qing frowned slightly, feeling very dissatisfied with his reaction. Seeing his reaction, Jiang Wan beside her felt even more curious.
"What's wrong?" She moved closer to the door to listen for herself.
But by the time she came forward, the sounds outside the door had already quieted down, and she didn't hear anything.
"Someone just wanted to open the door." After listening to Jiang Wan's doubts, Chen Qing naturally answered for her. Seeing the puzzled look on Jiang Wan's face, he immediately stood in front of the Tulou door again and looked through the crack in the door again. , but what he saw at this moment was a ferocious human eye filled with blood and bloodshot eyes. The eye was covered with blood vessels and pulses thicker than hair, and every beat was clearly visible.
Those blood vessels were like earthworms searching for their next path in the eyeballs. He stared at the door tightly, and Chen Qing's eyes also stared into his.
Then, he heard the man's voice outside the door.
"I know...you can see me..."
But before he finished speaking, Chen Qing sped up his words and cursed in a sharp tone: "You damn bitch!! Maggots grew in the ancestral grave and gave birth to you! Your mother was buried without you! Why are you still here! Your parents are at a funeral!"
Jiang Wan looked shocked and looked up at him with her eyes widened.
She opened her mouth slightly, but no words came out.
Obviously, she also saw the person outside the door.
But even so, the man outside the door seemed to have not heard anything at all and said to himself: "Your foundation... has been corrupt for too long. You have no idea what is happening in the world... Your building has long been destroyed." You should be burned by me...how can you survive to this day..."
He smiled ferociously, and the skin on his face was extremely loose. His neck was covered with steel needles, which seemed to be the reason why his skin was covered with black spots.
He tugged at the corners of his mouth, making his slack mouth smile.
Then, he stood up holding the corner of his mouth, lowered his mouth little by little, and pushed the door open.
But this time, when Chen Qing looked at the finger he pushed over, his expression became much calmer.
After confirming that he pushed the door open and entered like the previous woman, Chen Qing's brows began to frown even more.
He closed his eyes and began to recall everything he had seen before.
Too many forces have joined here...there are too many people here, and there are too many non-relics...
The power in them is not equal to their own... They seem to be even crazier.
"I'm afraid we won't be able to leave here for a while." He raised his head and looked at Jiang Wan.
"Because of those people?"
Chen Qing was silent for a moment.
"Maybe we can get out of here first! We can find support!"
"Will it take thousands of lives, tens of thousands of bullets, or two fat men to kill the backbone of these 'organizations'?"
He raised his head and asked again: "Do you believe that before you found the resources, they had already taken the harvest here and prepared to go out to kill you. You don't even know who is whose spy. You..."
Chen Qing shook his head, and then continued: "We must think of a way... think of a plan... that can get between all organizations and lure them into enemies...
What advantages do we have..."
He closed his eyes and began to count: "They don't know the rules of this back room yet... until the rules are parsed... we are safe.
They conservatively estimated that there were people from the Foundation and the Divine Grace Sect... people from the Taoist Court and the Club should also be there... but they didn't seem to have deep conflicts.
Those people are of no use...Who was that person just now? He was not in the right state, and combined with the previous woman's hasty entry into the earth building, they must have used non-relics with serious side effects.
Class F? Class E or Class D? Three to five seconds...
He chased the woman to the door. He won..."
Chen counted the stone bricks under his feet and continued to think in his mind.
"Maybe... we have to make some sacrifices."
He murmured softly, opening his eyes this time and looking directly into Jiang Wan's eyes.
"This time, if we are unlucky, we will be dead. And we will die without a burial place." He chuckled. After seeing the other party nodding slightly, he took out the document in his pocket. .
"All the dead will return to the place of birth after death."
His documents showed ink marks, and Chen Qing felt inexplicably nervous.
He has yet to test whether his suspicions are true. But he must continue to act based on his own guess.
He took Jiang Wan's hand, and after the two picked up the bedding on the floor, they returned to the room again.
In him, those non-relics that had been silent for a long time released their light in the back room for the first time.
He did it, he had to do it, something that could be called taboo in the back room.
But he had to do it.
He tied Jiang Wan's body firmly to the bed, and tied her hands and feet with bowl-thick hemp ropes.
He took out the wooden awl he was carrying, and the vision in his mind changed little by little.
…
It was not until three hours later that Jiang Wan and Chen Qing left the dusty earth building. Just as he had guessed at the beginning, when Chen Qing wrote that line, the two of them could already leave.
They opened the door, and the outside world was filled with birds and flowers, fish in the river, and trees by the river. The old man took his children fishing by the river, even though he fished for a long time, even though there was not a single fish in his bucket.
But now, the world they see is full of dust and decay.
The grass was withered and yellow, and only half of the trunks of the huge willow trees were left. The water in the river had dried up, but the river bed was still moist, like a quagmire.
Among those rivers, there are still fish fry alive in a few pools, but definitely not many.
Chen Qing looked around for the old man's figure. He searched for a moment, but found a hanged middle-aged man in front of a withered grave.
The middle-aged man had a sallow face and thin muscles, and there were only a few drops of liquid dripping from his pants. The fishy smell covered the body odor and became the main source of odor.
He was hanged, but his fingers were clean. He was starved to death, but his belly was bulging.
Chen Qing frowned and slowed down his pace and walked towards him.
At the edge of that person, there is a range of about two to three meters that is completely free of dust.
This range is almost a perfect circle, which is far beyond human ability.
It seems that someone used non-relics to protect this place.
He frowned, and after making sure that stepping into it would not be affected, he gently shook the male corpse's trousers.
The liquid was tied up inside the pants, and when it shook, the sound of water could be heard.
"It seems...my guess is right."
The tension on Chen Qing's face relaxed a lot. He raised his head and looked at the earth building. The earth building was no longer the color of pure loess. Among the yellows, there was a bit of dark and a bit of ferocious red.
He looked at Jiang Wan. After the other party reached an agreement, the two of them walked towards the door.
They walked to the door, and before they could open it, an extremely loud sound came from inside the door.
Rumble.
Rumble.
The two looked at each other and leaned sideways on both sides of the door of the earth building. They only exerted a slight force on their arms. As the door of the earth building opened, a burst of smoke and dust came out from inside.
The dust was unusually large, and there seemed to be something mixed in the dust.
Before Chen Qing had time to look, a pure white thing was already heading towards him.
