Life is such an ups and downs. After giving Dawn the most beautiful scenery, it then puts him in the most difficult situation.

He decided to risk leaving the ghost market street as soon as the snow stopped. While others still had to wait two days for the snow to melt, he could scavenge ahead of others and strive for a big harvest.

Unexpectedly, this time the poisonous snow fell for five days in a row, and the fat shopkeeper didn't see him for five days.

Probably because of the fat shopkeeper's instruction, the acquaintance of the water shop clerk also changed his face and reminded him to pay the debt at dawn every day.

Since I lived in a water shop at dawn, I could not change my refuge point according to the license plate management rules, so I had to endure harassment from the water shop clerk several times a day.

The waiter's words were not as nice as the fat shopkeeper's: "Liao Xiao, this is your first day on credit. You have to pay back the credit. You must respect yourself as a person and don't be disrespectful. Otherwise, you will have no place in the ghost market in the future..." "

Although the other refugees felt sad that the rabbit had died and the fox had died, no one dared to speak for Li Xiao.

On the fifth day, seeing that the poisonous snow had not stopped and the waiter kept chattering, Li Xiao finally couldn't bear it anymore. In front of a room full of evacuees, he yelled: "Oh my god! I know I owe you a debt, so don't rush me all day long." As if gibbering, I turned around and told the damn fat man, isn’t it only for ten days? I can’t pay it off by then, so I’ll do whatever I have to do!”

Not to be outdone, the waiter scolded Li Xiao: "Hey! Are you still dealing with the credit card? Are you shameless? I've never seen a rotten person like you settle down..."

Baoding, who was patrolling the street, heard the sound and came over. Naturally, he stood on the side of the clerk and shouted at Li Xiao: "Stay still, or I will kick you out!"

Li Xiao gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, but he was under the eaves and had to lower his head. He could only swallow his breath and swallow it alive.

Now that they had broken up, the boy's words became more and more unpleasant throughout the day. Li Xiao could only bear it silently. Helplessness, resentment and even despair filled his heart. Only when he thought of the girl did he feel a trace of warmth in his heart.

That night, the snow finally stopped.

Early the next morning, at dawn, I was finally able to get rid of the noisy waiters at the water shop. I received my deposit and said I would be leaving today. I exchanged the remaining deposit for three days' worth of cornstarch and water, and exchanged the rest for the snow-clearing poison. of medicine powder.

The guy didn't dare to violate the rules of the ghost club. He cashed in all the items and collected the number plate. He couldn't help but sarcastically said: "Boy, the snow hasn't melted yet. Are you in a hurry to reincarnate? Don't even think about running away. Also, scavengers Don't run into corpse demons or bad guys. If you lose your life, our shop will suffer a big loss..."

Without saying a word at dawn, he picked up his shriveled robes and stepped out of the Shuipu store with his head held high under the sympathetic or indifferent gazes from behind. He had the spirit of a strong man who never comes back.

He headed towards the east gate because he was afraid of seeing Tie Zhu who was on duty at the west gate. He didn't know how to explain to him that he was determined to break the boat and no longer need anyone's help, so he could overcome this big obstacle in life by himself. !

The girl who entered his heart but was nowhere to be found reappeared in Li Xiao's heart. Although he didn't know her name or even saw her face, he knew that he would probably never forget her in this life.

The sun was still on the horizon, the air outside was cold, and there was no snow on the ground in Ghost Market Street. He was the only one walking alone, heading towards the unpredictable future without looking back.

When the teams of guards guarding the east gate saw that they were about to leave at dawn, they all widened their eyes in surprise, but without asking any more questions, they opened the small opening of the iron bramble and let him out.

Separated by a door, there are two worlds. The snow outside the street is up to the knees, and the ground cannot be seen at all. Fortunately, the tile houses on both sides can be used as a reference.

At the break of dawn, white mist surrounds the face. They carry short knives and walk in the snow with one foot high and one foot low. It is safer at this time. The corpse demons have not yet been dispatched. They are walking corpses and naturally invulnerable to all poisons.

The sun has not yet hit us, but once the poisonous snow melts away, it will be difficult to move.

It was especially lucky that the snow had stopped and the wind had stopped. If the wind and sand were as usual and the snow was blowing, he didn't know if the little anti-snow poison he had exchanged would be enough.

At dawn, try to find a scavenging village before the snow melts. If you dig deep into the ground, you will find treasures no matter what.

But he still overestimated himself and underestimated another kind of damage caused by sunlight. After all, he had never seen snow before.

At first, at dawn, he only felt the glare of the snow, and gradually his eyes stung, and his vision began to blur. He wanted to speed up, but the snow under his feet was too thick, and he couldn't go faster at all. He had just walked out of the ghost market.

The sun was gradually rising, and I didn't feel too hot yet, but under the up and down illumination of the sun and snow, I felt like I would soon be unable to see anything at dawn.

Once he becomes blind, he will be in ruins. The problem is that he can't find a place to hide from the light. Besides, the snow will melt soon. If he stays in the wild, he will die.

Li Xiao didn't care much, and relied on his memory to rush towards the ruins of the village closest to the ghost market.

His vision became increasingly blurry. Fortunately, he saw the shadow of the village at dawn. He accelerated as fast as he could. As the village entrance approached, gray shadows appeared in the white field of vision. As the gray shadows grew larger, he felt his eyes sting a bit. Slowing down, I felt happy. Although this village had long been dug up by scavengers, it was once a wealthy village, and I still had a glimmer of hope.

Just as he was entering the village at dawn, he suddenly missed his footing, his vision went dark, his head hurt, and he didn't know anything at all.

I don't know how long it took, but I woke up at dawn. The first thing I smelled in my nose was the aroma of barbecue, which made his mouth water. But my ears caught a burst of women's cries and men's laughter.

He immediately found that his hands and feet were tied together, lying on the ground like a rice dumpling. He already understood what had happened - he had stepped into the trap of the villain again, and this time no one could save him.

Dawn did not dare to move, and continued to pretend to be comatose, secretly opening her eyes slightly, observing her situation through the small cracks, and saw a tragic scene...

This is a dilapidated thatched hut, with sunlight filtering through the gaps in the roof. In the open space in the middle, a bonfire is burning. Two shirtless men are sitting on both sides of the bonfire, each holding a bonfire. A sharp knife was pointed at a naked man's corpse...

Lying in the corner was a young woman with her hands tied and disheveled clothes. Her body was twisting and her mouth was whimpering in confusion: "My husband, my husband..."

Even though Li Xiao had already been mentally prepared, when he actually saw the scene of cannibalism, he couldn't help but trembled so hard that he almost vomited.

Fortunately, the two big men were concentrating on eating and teasing the woman next to them from time to time, and did not notice the changes at dawn.

"Little lady, eat a piece of your husband's meat. When you are full, you can play with our brothers."

"Hehe, if you obey, we will eat the kid we just caught first, and then we will eat you last."

"Here, do you want to eat something fat or thin..."

Hearing the woman's cry of collapse, Li Xiao almost collapsed. Although the woman's experience was tragic, he could not escape the fate of being eaten.

Of course I don’t want to be slaughtered like a chicken or a dog. It’s not easy to live, isn’t it easy to die? At worst, he bites his tongue and commits suicide.

Li Xiao gritted his teeth and tried to bite his tongue. It hurt! Don't be in a hurry to die yet, wait and see what the situation is.
