The landscaping box was temporarily quiet. The doors of all the broken houses in the village were opened. The ragged villagers came out of the houses and wandered around the bandits who were beaten by Li Daoxuan, talking quietly. What, look up at the sky from time to time.
Li Daoxuan sat outside the box and looked at his hands.
The palms are actually red, stained with the red potion on the plastic little people.
No, it’s not red potion!
He smelled a strong smell of blood in his nose. Although one villain had very little blood, after taking pictures of dozens of villains, his palms were all stained red, and the smell of blood became stronger. Pungent and unpleasant smell.
The little villagers are now whispering around the body of the bandit, looking up to the sky from time to time. Some people are surrounding the little girl, asking something. Their voices were like the roar of ants. If they didn't shout loudly, Li Daoxuan wouldn't be able to hear them clearly.
A strange thought came to his mind: Aren't these villains performing according to the preset plot? The girl's eyes met mine. She was praying to me just now. After I shot the bandit to death, the actions of the villagers also changed according to the development of the situation.
Li Daoxuan looked at the blood on his hands seriously, and then looked down at the little man in the landscaping box.
"These villains are intelligent!"
This discovery shocked Li Daoxuan.
He quickly went to the bathroom to wash off the blood on his hands, then returned to the box and stared into the box. He saw that the villagers were already busy. They confiscated the weapons of the bandits and distributed them to each family. They took off the weapons and clothes from the bandits and divided them one by one into each household. They dug a hole in the loess soil outside the village and buried all the stripped bodies in the soil.
Then they wrapped the bodies of several villagers killed by bandits in straw mats and carried them out of the village. They also dug several pits to bury them and cut some pieces of wood to make tombstones.
No one in the village seemed to be literate, and not even a word was written on the tombstone. Only a few crooked marks were carved on the tombstone with a knife to identify which family it belonged to.
The little girl knelt in front of one of the tombs, shed tears, and kowtowed several times...
Li Dao The little girl also returned home, hugged her mother's relics, shed tears, and fell asleep.
The box was frozen in "non-still images" and there was nothing interesting to see.
Li Daoxuan yawned and realized that he had not slept for two days and one night.
He rubbed his tired eyes and painful temples, and dragged his tired body back to the computer. His mind was full of question marks. He habitually turned on the computer, logged on to the historical and military forum where he often hung out, and posted anonymously: "The little man in the landscaping box suddenly comes to life. How should we deal with it?"
Reply 1: “It’s time to see a doctor.”
Reply 2: "Pinch yourself hard and you'll wake up."
Reply 3: "Is there a little girl? Peep at her changing clothes."
Li Daoxuan: "..."
No one can understand how he feels at this time.
Opening QQ for work, the boss's profile picture was flashing wildly. When he opened it, he found that during the whole day when he was staring at the landscaping box in a daze, the boss sent him several messages: "You haven't gotten up yet? Yesterday you Party A is not satisfied with the design and needs to modify it in several places. Contact me immediately when you get up."
"XX person initiated a video call to you...has been canceled..."
"What time has it been and you haven't gotten up yet? Party A is urging me very urgently."
"Shit, it's noon, are you fucking pretending to be dead?"
"XX person initiated a video call to you...has been canceled..."
"It's two o'clock in the afternoon, do you want this?"
"XX person initiated a video call to you...has been canceled..."
"It's six o'clock and you still haven't replied to me? Damn it, I'll pay you half of your salary, so get out of here."
"XX person transfers money to you: 2,350 yuan."
Li Daoxuan: "..."
Lost my job!
But I'm not surprised or sad. I no longer want to do this crappy job. I feel relieved after losing my job.
Tiredness is coming. How long has it been since you had a good sleep? Just take this opportunity to have a good rest.
He didn't even bother to wash up, walked to the bed, fell down, and fell unconscious instantly.

AD 2023, July 12, Shuangqing City, Xia.
When Li Daoxuan woke up, it was already past 10 o'clock the next morning.
The headache caused by lack of sleep continued. He turned on the computer habitually, and then remembered that he didn't have to work today. He was very hungry. He looked at the landscaping box stupidly for the whole day, and he didn't eat a grain of rice. He was not hungry. That's weird.
He walked into the kitchen sleepily, boiled water, and threw two eggs in the water.
My mind slowly cleared up, and I remembered the landscaping box again, so I hurriedly ran from the kitchen into the living room.
The landscaping box is still placed in the living room, and the little people inside have all gotten up and are moving around the village.
Li Daoxuan soon discovered the little girl. She was carrying a bamboo basket and looking for grass roots on the yellow sand outside the village...
She just lost her mother yesterday. She may not have gotten over the grief yet, but she has already had to devote herself to the work of looking for food.
Li Daoxuan sighed softly and murmured: "This girl is so miserable."
As soon as these words were spoken, the little girl suddenly raised her head. As if she heard something, she raised her head and looked at the sky above her head. After searching for a few seconds, her eyes locked on the location of Li Daoxuan. .
Li Daoxuan immediately felt that way again, and his eyes met the girl's.
Look at each other!
Vision is complicated.
Li Daoxuan's eyes were full of pity and sympathy, but the girl's eyes were full of sadness and pleading.
——————-
AD 1627, the seventh year of the Apocalypse, Xia, Shaanxi, Chengcheng County, Gaojia Village.
Gao Yiye lost his mother and is now alone.
But she had no time to grieve, because there was no food in the house, and she had to live. She could not be a useless person who only knew how to cry while holding her mother's relics.
She got up early in the morning, carried a bamboo basket, and walked out of the village with a heart filled with sadness.
First, he kowtowed in front of his mother's grave and spat on the grave where the bandits buried their bodies. Then, while walking, he looked for the place where weeds once grew.
She had rummaged through this stretch of sand many times, and it was becoming increasingly difficult to find grass roots.
My arms and legs are getting weaker and weaker, my body is already a bit wobbly and I am unsteady on my feet.
She didn't know how long she could hold on. Maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow. One day, she couldn't find enough grass roots, and she would be too hungry to go out to the village to look for food, so she could only wait at home. died.
She knew that this day was getting closer.
At this moment, she heard a sigh from the sky: "This girl is so miserable."
She had vaguely heard this voice somewhere...
Gao Yiye raised his head suddenly and saw a young man's face emerging from the clouds. His eyes met. It was a pair of compassionate eyes, full of emotion.
The girl knew that she was saved, and she bowed her head once more: "Lord God, I'm so hungry and I can't hold on any longer. Please be generous and merciful and save me."
