"My, my God, you actually blamed me? Didn't you scare me too? Oh my god, just now, did he really scare me to death just now..."
Responding to nonsense with nonsense, and responding to complaints with complaints, as the executor, Li Dayong, who knew the rules of the curse as well as Lu Sheng, also did not say much. Instead, he imitated the pretense of the yellow-haired young man, fearing that he would not stop shouting afterward.
Let's get back to the subject. I don't deny that the identities of both parties have restricted the two parties. As a result, the two people who could have in-depth communication were forced to limit themselves to the surface. However, there is a saying that says that rules are dead and people are alive. In combination with the curse, it is allowed to find reasonable reasons. , in fact, as long as you think about it, the executor will always find reasons and excuses, just like what He Fei and Chen Xiaoyao and others communicated before. As long as the language dialogue between executors of different identities is logical, then it can still be done. Successfully communicate clues and convey information with the other party while mastering certain verbal skills.
Seniors understand this. Lu Sheng, who has been thinking about it for a long time, understands it. Li Dayong, who has been hiding at home for 4 days like Lu Sheng, also understands it, so...
"Okay, since you and I startled each other, let's put this aside for now. By the way, Lu Sheng, look at you in a panic, where are you going?"
Sure enough, after getting over the initial panic, the Northeastern man spoke first, downplaying the fright just now in a straight-to-the-point way, and then changed the topic to the main topic. During this period, both his expression and tone were obviously pun-intended. On the surface, it seemed that It was a casual inquiry between neighbors, but Lu Sheng knew the meaning of the other party's words and said he was clear. However, he did not answer Li Dayong's question immediately. Instead, he asked Li Dayong with a condensed face: "What about you? What's wrong with you coming here?" For what?"
………
I would like to ask, when a person has been alone at home for the past four days with nothing to do and knows that there are locusts in the town, will this person have random thoughts?
The answer is yes, not only yes, but also all kinds of speculations and consequences will be weaved in your mind during the process. You can take it as your own and scare yourself, but one thing is undeniable, that is, the longer time passes, the more thoughts will become. The more nervous and confused you become, until it develops into restlessness.
Lu Sheng became more and more timid with the passage of time. Isn't Li Dayong the same? The reason why he left home to look for Lu Sheng was to discuss countermeasures with the only teammate next door he could contact.
"What about you? Why did you come to my place?"
As soon as he asked the rhetorical question, Lu Sheng discovered something. He found that Li Dayong, who had a normal expression in front of him, actually changed his expression in silence, and turned into a face full of fear. It was obvious that this was undoubtedly what the other party deliberately showed to him. He pondered for a moment, and then, After thinking about the language vocabulary, the Northeastern man began to answer. While staring closely at the yellow-haired young man, he said something that seemed incomprehensible but only the other party could understand: "Well, it's like this. I haven't been to the church in the town for a long time. I plan to go there today for a stroll and pray in front of the Jesus sculpture. I came here to ask if you would like to go with me?"
(No way? Li Dayong actually feels the same way? In addition to feeling similar, he also...)
That's right, as the performer gradually got used to playing the role, he has mastered the trick. Most of the dialogues are filled with puns and hints, and as long as he is not an idiot, anyone can hear the unspoken meaning. For example, at this moment, Lu Shengming Come on, I quickly guessed the other party's intention from Li Dayong's nervous expression and what he said. I didn't expect that the other party would feel the same sense of uneasiness as him during the four peaceful days! As mentioned before, Li Dayong and Lu Sheng were both cursed and given the vague identities of small town residents. Due to the unclear identity and the fact that their teammates were scattered and searching to no avail, in order to prevent danger, the two chose to stay at home and wait and see what happens. As the situation progressed, Lu Sheng couldn't help but think wildly, and the more he thought about it, the more he became afraid. Likewise, how could a Northeastern man, who was in the same situation as Huang Mao, be stable? Don't look at him. Li Dayong has a burly body that is not inferior to Peng Hu's. He looks mighty, but in fact it is just an appearance. After all, he is a newcomer, a newcomer executor with little understanding of supernatural tasks, and more importantly, , he is a human being, but everyone is afraid of worms, and they will inevitably have random thoughts when time passes by doing nothing. Others are like this, and Li Dayong is no exception. The only thing that surprises Lu Sheng is that besides himself, the big man once had random thoughts and was frightened. , Unexpectedly, even the thoughts and ideas are almost the same, that is, temporary safety does not mean long-term safety, nor does it mean survival until the end of the mission!
And Li Dayong's coping strategy is relatively simple, that is, going to church. As for the reason... Although Lu Sheng couldn't completely guess it, he could at least guess it roughly. Maybe, maybe in Li Dayong's personal consciousness, since the mission world is real There are ghost souls, so who can guarantee that the legendary gods do not exist in the mission world? Just like the scenes that often appear in many Hong Kong and Taiwan movies, whenever a character is chased by a hawk, he will always happen to meet an expert and hide in a nearby temple or Taoist temple under the guidance of the expert. Once he enters it, , the mantis is often unable to do anything.
Undoubtedly, when the Northeastern men felt a sense of crisis, out of fear of Mary Shaw, Li Dayong, who believed that it was not safe to stay at home, unconsciously thought of those Hong Kong and Taiwan films he had watched earlier. Confrontations were not often seen in the films. A plot? For example, if the protagonist runs into a temple and Taoist temple, he can avoid danger and even get help from eminent monks or Taoists! Since Taoist temples in China have the ability to ward off evil spirits and worms, it stands to reason that the Christian church as a Western religion should also have similar abilities. There are various gods in China who can bless mortals. Presumably the God of the West, Jesus, should be similar. ?
I don’t know whether he was rushed to the hospital due to illness or whether he had this idea in his heart. When he found that he was restricted to the small town area by the rules, Li Dayong, who could not escape, remembered something by recalling the plot. He remembered that there seemed to be a church in Ravenel. A religious building that belongs to God’s residence in the eyes of Westerners!
As a digression, it's no wonder that Li Dayong has the above thoughts. When there are no seniors around, what can a newcomer do if he loses support? What should you do with a new person with almost zero mission experience? The answer is that there is nothing we can do, and we definitely can’t help. Since we can’t help, self-preservation will naturally become the key. Yes, when the protagonist Jamie’s life and death is in danger, or he is looking for a way out, etc., the newcomer will definitely not be able to help. Let the seniors worry about it. As a newcomer, the only thing I can do is survive as much as possible, that's all.
………
At this moment, maintaining an ugly expression, Li Dayong and Lu Sheng looked at each other, and saw that the yellow-haired young man was speechless for a long time. After a while, Li Dayong continued to speak, asking and testing with an expression that was obviously full of hints: "Why? How about that? Do you want to go with me?"
The words are urgent and the state of mind is anxious. Both the tone of voice and facial expressions contain the charm of urging. Why is it urgent? Why urge? There is only one reason, and that is...
He didn't dare, didn't dare to be alone, didn't dare to go alone!
Just as the big man was worried, although he, Li Dayong, had made good plans, he still did not want to hide in the church alone. At least he had to have someone accompany him. The so-called courage is difficult to judge from a person's appearance. Sometimes the appearance Being tall and mighty does not necessarily mean that you are brave. Similarly, a person with a thin appearance does not necessarily mean a timid person. Li Dayong is exactly the kind of person who appears to be tough but is actually timid. Who would have thought that this man from the Northeast who looks tough on the outside does not necessarily mean he is timid. Is the big man so timid at heart? Even if his timidity and fear were limited to the spiritual lynx monster, Li Dayong's reaction could still be described as unbearable. Unexpectedly, the man could no longer bear the pressure of fear in his thoughts before the lynx appeared? However, there is a saying that everything has two sides. Although Li Dayong performed poorly under fear and pressure, he was also forced to think more and have more thoughts under pressure. In the end, his imagination was so wild that he rushed to the church to ask for help. God bless me, if I want to know, Lu Sheng initially just planned to find someone and a place to stay.
"Let me think about this carefully first..."
"Hey, hey, hey, why are you still hesitating at this time? There is a priest and God in the church. Don't you want to bathe in God's arms?"
Seeing that the yellow-haired young man seemed to have doubts, the Northeastern man was immediately anxious and hurriedly tried to persuade him again, with more hints in his words. He used the excuse of bathing in the embrace of God to vaguely remind the other party that the church had hope to ward off disasters and use various means to avoid disasters. The reason encouraged the other party to accompany him, and later it developed into a faint plea. Due to the restrictions of the rules, Li Dayong was indeed unable to elaborate on the reason, but this did not prevent Lu Sheng from figuring out the other party's intention.
"If that's the case, then, well, I'll go with you."
Finally, although going to the church was somewhat inconsistent with his purpose of going out, Lu Sheng, who was not very courageous, was finally persuaded by Li Dayong. The reason is easy to understand. Although Lu Sheng was skeptical about the blessing of gods, please don't forget it. It's a real thing! Since there are locusts, do the legendary gods also exist? Maybe after hiding in the church, I might be able to meet a priest with the power to exorcise demons?
The above are the thoughts that came to Lu Sheng's mind during his meditation. Let's not talk about whether the church has the ability to exorcise evil spirits. At least the priest's asylum theory he just conceived may be difficult to establish, because the ruffian young man with the identity of a priest is not in the church at all.
Seeing that the other party finally agreed, Li Dayong was immediately overjoyed. Apart from the joy on his face, an additional idea popped up in the depths of his mind, an unknown and secret idea.
Getting back to the topic, since both of them have made the decision to go to the church, it is conceivable that once they go in, they will definitely not come out. They must have the intention to stay in the church until the mission is over, so naturally, as The two people who had the same goal and reached a consensus immediately got busy, packed up a little, and then set off with some water and food. Under the memory given by the curse, they hurriedly walked straight towards the small town church.
………
Hooray, hooray.
The cool breeze of autumn never stops, and the fallen leaves are carried away by the wind. If you look carefully through the mist, you will find two figures walking side by side, shuttled between various houses and buildings.
First of all, it is certain that Ravenel is not small. It is said to be a small town, but the actual area is several times larger than imagined. Because of the large area and the long distance, no matter how anxious and expected, it is actually difficult to quickly Upon arrival, Lu Sheng responded with a cautious attitude, and looked around frequently like Li Dayong who was walking together. In this way, they both kept their spirits up while walking, and followed the steps with unprecedented vigilance. It was obvious that the two of them were fearful and uneasy, fearing that they might encounter a tiger on the way. They were following each other like two rats crossing the street. The two of them looked around with extreme caution. Their excessive caution also attracted the attention of some small town residents. It attracted curious looks from some residents passing by.
In fact, this is not why Lu Sheng and the two are so vigilant. Not to mention that they are newcomers to perform a supernatural mission for the first time. The hazy mist at the scene that seems to be dark but not dark is enough to make the two people who are accustomed to the normal environment have a rough instinct. , instinctively uneasy, and there is also a murderous female slug hiding in the town, so it is false to say that you are not afraid, and this is precisely the main reason why the two of them are almost at war with each other along the way.
Unfortunately, vigilance does not mean detecting danger, and prudence does not mean detecting abnormalities.
You may be aware of the danger and take precautions, but in fact your prevention is often useless whenever the danger actually comes. Even if you are highly vigilant to the point of extreme vigilance, you will always overlook many details. Unlike the legendary omniscient and omnipotent God, Human beings will be human beings, and humans will always ignore the smallest details.
Time passed by, and the walk came to an end. Finally, as they continued to go north, after bypassing several sections, through the woods ahead, the two of them approached the end and saw their destination from a distance. Yes, it was in a small town. At the north end, deep in the woods that were rustled by the autumn wind, a medium-sized church comparable to a three-story building came into view!
(It seems that the memory added by the curse is really useful. Although it is my first time to come to the church, both the location and the appearance of the building are exactly the same as in the memory!)
"We're here! It's right there! Just behind the woods ahead!"
Looking around, staring for a moment, and after confirming the real existence of the church, Li Dayong, who had been eager to get in immediately, was overjoyed. Of course, the big man was so happy that he pointed in front of him, and Lu Sheng, who was standing beside him, was the same. Seeing that the church was close at hand, after looking at each other, the two of them set off decisively in the next moment, running straight towards the church with the mentality of divine protection.
However……
Hooray.
At the moment when the two of them were galloping close to the church, a breeze blew in the air. A subtle wind that was different from the cool breeze around them also swept in at this moment. Mixed with the gusts of cool wind, lightning silently approached, heading towards The church opposite was swept away. Not only that, as the dark wind swept and quietly blew, Lu Sheng and Li Dayong, who were rushing to the church, also appeared strange. It was not their bodies that were strange, but the electronic watches worn on their respective wrists appeared inexplicably. abnormal……
