The half-face at the end of the bed was not an illusion. The eyes on the face were staring at her, giving off a creepy feeling of weirdness and ominousness.
Anxi was stunned for a moment, grabbed the correction fluid on the pillow, and stood up suddenly.
But when she lay down next to the bed, there was nothing.
"...What's wrong?" Fang Qianyao, who was sleeping in the middle, heard the sound and asked in a daze.
"...It's okay." Anxi glanced at the empty bed again and lay back in her position.
White Walkers.
There are really ghosts in this village, and as Jiang Wenwei said, these ghosts will come to make trouble.
But what is the purpose of these White Walkers?
Just to scare people?
And the most important thing is that they turned into ghosts because they had resentment before death, and they had resentment because of what they had experienced.
Could it be the Wang Cuizhu and Zhang Baohai family in the story Jiang Wenwei told her?
Their family died because of the ridiculous experience and anger, so they were unwilling to leave the village and stayed in the village to cause trouble?
Anxi lay on the bed with her eyes closed, her mind a mess. .
Early the next morning.
"Are you guys up?"
Zhang Rende's voice sounded at the door of the courtyard. Xu Ming, who was in the room on the right, got up early. He had already dressed and washed up. He walked to the door and unlocked the courtyard door, letting Zhang Rende in.
Li Na in the middle room also got up early and stayed in the corner without saying a word.
Fang Qianyao was already getting dressed, but An Qian got up leisurely and sat on the bed in a daze.
Because she had been wary of whether the White Walkers would reappear last night, she stayed awake until dawn and fell down when she couldn't hold on any longer. But when I fell asleep, I was half asleep, half awake, my heart was always tense, and when I woke up, I was extremely tired.
Fang Qianyao looked at An Qian swaying from the side and said, "You look so bad."
"Hmm..." Anxi responded casually, opened the door and went to the kitchen to get water to wash up.
This morning's activities were the same as yesterday. The first item on the agenda was to go to the school to tutor the children in their studies, and then to visit the homes of poorer villagers to see if there was anything they needed help with.
As soon as she arrived at school, Anxi walked directly to the tree, leaned against the trunk and started to catch up on her sleep.
Generally speaking, White Walkers are untouchable. Some special White Walkers will appear physically under certain circumstances.
However, the White Walker escaped so quickly last night that Anxi didn't even see what the White Walker looked like and couldn't deal with it.
I wonder if the White Walkers will come to cause trouble tonight. If the White Walkers keep coming, Anxi won't have to sleep at night and will have to catch up on her sleep during the day.
"Sister." As soon as An Qian closed her eyes, Yuanyuan's voice sounded in her ears.
Although she heard Yuanyuan talking to her, Anxi didn't want to open her eyes, so she kept her sleeping position and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Did you not sleep well last night?" Yuanyuan asked with concern.
Anxi replied: "Yes, so stop quarreling with me and go find other brothers and sisters."
An Qian was obviously chasing people away, but Yuanyuan did not leave. Instead, she took a step closer and whispered: "Sister, did you... bump into a White Walker?"
As soon as she heard the word White Walker, Anxi opened her eyes alertly and looked at Yuanyuan opposite.
But Yuanyuan did not show the spooky and weird look she imagined, and still had an innocent and worried expression, "Sister, the previous volunteer, has also encountered this... Sister, if you are afraid, remember to go to the temple to pray. Although Sister, you are not from the village, but the gods are very good and will definitely bless you."
Yuanyuan's words sounded sincere, and she seemed to be really worried about An Qian.
But An Qian had already visited the temple yesterday and found that the statue of the god had no power.
"Yes, I understand." An Qian still catered to her, "If something strange happens again, I will pay my respects."
"Okay, sister, be careful. I won't disturb your sleep." Yuanyuan warned again, then left the tree where Anxi was and ran back to the group of children.
About two hours later, An Qian was shaken awake. Zhang Rende's face was enlarged in front of her eyes. He asked kindly: "Did you sleep well last night?"
Anxi nodded.
"Then I will arrange for you to live with a villager who has less work. Let's go. The school activities are over." Zhang Rende said thoughtfully,
But Anxi wanted to answer: Can't you just arrange work for me?
However, she still wanted to contact other villagers today and ask about strange ghosts, fairy statues and Wang Cuizhu.
So Anxi stood up with her hands on the tree trunk and followed the others out of the school.
No longer surrounded by children, Wu returned to Anxi's side. He bent down and looked at Anxi's half-open eyes and asked: "Baby, can I carry you on my back?"
"..." Anxi hesitated.
Her heart was truly shaken, and she began to think about whether to let Wu carry her forward.
She didn't get enough sleep. She was now completely groggy, her head was still tingling, and she was feeling flustered and short of breath. When walking on the road, it feels like the road is uneven and you may fall down at any time.
Seeing that An Qian did not reject him directly, Wu hesitated instead. He felt happy and realized that this was a good opportunity, so he said bluntly: "I will carry you."
Then he half-crouched down, hugged Anxi's legs, leaned on his back, and then stood up to carry Anxi on his back.
Anxi's feet were already dangling in the air before she could react.
She looked at the end of Wu's hair, probably because he was so happy now. When he walked, a bunch of hair at the end of his hair twitched, like a puppy's tail.
Fine.
Anxi thought to herself that since she had already carried everything on her back, she didn't have to think about it so much. She was really too tired today.
The atmosphere between Wu and Anxi was rare and harmonious.
On the other side, Lin Dawang looked at this scene and sneered dissatisfiedly, and deliberately raised his voice and said: "Hey! It's really amazing! No wonder a woman always deliberately goes against me. It turns out she has a backer. It's really a dog's power."
After what happened last night, Lin Dawang completely hated An Qian and kept thinking about causing trouble for An Qian.
An Qian heard Lin Dawang's voice, but she didn't want to pay attention to it and didn't even move.
To be honest, she didn't understand why Lin Dawang would do such a thing. If Wu was really her backer, wouldn't Lin Dawang be afraid of being beaten or losing his life if he spoke like this?
He has clearly seen Wu's abilities, yet he still dares to speak so wildly.
Either the props Lin Dawang possesses are quite powerful, or he is really hopelessly stupid.
Anxi prefers the latter.
In other words, even if Lin Dawang's props are really powerful, he still can't avoid his stupidity.
In a multi-player dungeon, he shows his cunning and greed whenever something happens, causing everyone to reject him. This is not something a smart person can do.
