The phone was placed on the ground with the light still on.
Liu Xuan squatted down, took the photo again, grinning joyfully. She really read it right, her face returned to normal.
She leaned to Ning Meng's side: "Senior sister, my face is all right! The black mask on my face is gone!"
Hearing that, Ning Meng picked up the phone and looked at it. She really couldn't see the thick black air covering it, although she still looked very bad.
She comforted: "That's fine, let's leave here quickly."
Liu Xuan nodded: "Yeah."
When the two walked outside, Shi Qi just came out of the stone tablet, and the golden powder on the ground glowed, showing a painting with strange lines.
Ning Meng guessed what symbol that should be.
The black energy gradually collapsed, and the black soul that crawled out from under the stele twisted its body and slowly sank inside.
It was not until nearly an hour later that the place finally returned to calm.
Shi Qi turned his head, "You can go now."
Ning Meng hurriedly followed him and couldn't wait to leave this weird place.
Going down the mountain, I didn't see anything along the way. It was so peaceful that even the villagers had lost track.
She was still suspicious for a while. It was reasonable to say that she would be alive soon. It was normal to die on the road, but there was not even a corpse along the way.
When I returned to the stone bridge, the sky was already bright.
Liu Xuan was so happy that she was flying into the sky, and now she had no mask on her face, indicating that she had returned to normal.
Ning Meng looked at her face, her black anger had disappeared.
Shi Qi didn't speak much along the way, and even with Liu Xuan, she didn't dare to speak. She was actually looking for a chance, but she lost courage as soon as she approached.
It's better to stay with the senior sister.
There are roosters in the village, passing through the woods, there is the sun rising from afar, and two men in black are waiting at the end of the village.
Seeing Shi Qi appear, he went forward and said in a low voice: "Master Qi, everyone in the village has returned after dawn."
In the evening, they saw the group of people go out and were left here by Shi Qi, but after dawn, they came back safe and sound.
Liu Xuan covered her mouth, her eyes full of surprise.
Ning Meng was also a little disbelief, and whispered, "Their faces are all like that... Will they survive this way?"
Shi Qi slapped their jaws.
Three colors went back to the concrete room. Liu Xuan didn't sleep all night and couldn't hold it anymore. She went directly into the bedroom and fell asleep with her head covered. She couldn't think of anything at all.
Shi Qi sat by the window, Ning Meng walked over and took out the dagger, "Do you want this? I dragged it off that mask."
She conveniently placed the mask Liu Xuan had brought back in front of him.
After thinking about it, it's better to be like this. Anyway, she will live a long time, so it's better to give it to her time, and she can still play the best use.
Shi Qi just glanced at it and said nonchalantly, "You hold it yourself."
Ning Meng looked at him suspiciously, "You really don't? Don't regret it in the future."
The old scabbard was found on the ground. Although there are only half of the dagger left, it is still somewhat useful.
Shi Qi didn't change his expression, "Is there any regret about this."
It is indeed a good thing, but there is nothing left for her, it can be used for self-defense, he has no shortage of things now.
Ning Meng smiled happily, don't forget it.
At this moment, a voice came from the door: "Boom, boom, boom."
She regained her joy and swallowed, she definitely wouldn't be the people in black. They are now behind the house and will come in directly through the window.
Liu Xuan was awakened, ran out of the bedroom, and asked in a panic, "Who?"
There was a voice outside the door replied: "It's me, Uncle Li."
It was his voice that was correct, but at this moment, the two courageous people in the room shook directly.
Ning Meng leaned close to Shi Qi invisibly and said, "Is this still a normal person?"
Liu Xuan also turned a blank face, and could only ask for advice: "Senior, senior sister, do you want to open this door..."
Shi Qi was expressionless, "Open."
Only when he finished saying the word, the door opened.
When they came back, they didn't lock the door, but closed it gently. Now they can naturally push it away from the outside.
A middle-aged man in old clothes stepped in and was still talking: "I think you didn't plug in, and no one responded, so you just pushed the door in."
Liu Xuan was the closest, she couldn't help her back against the wall, trembling and speechless, shocked by the sight in front of her.
To say that the scenes last night made her feel terrified, this was a direct shock.
After any person's face is torn off, it is impossible to live unharmed, not to mention that the face is still there, it is not like the thing that happened last night.
Liu Xuan looked at the senior.
Shi Qi said lightly: "We will leave soon."
Uncle Li said in surprise: "It's just dawn? I left so early? Don't you stay for a meal? Did you find the mask you were looking for yesterday?"
It's okay not to mention the mask. When I mention it, I think of the scene where he tore off his face.
Liu Xuan paled, and replied mechanically: "... I may have mistaken my memory, Uncle Li. We are going to school tomorrow, but we still have to go back."
Uncle Li didn't notice the difference, and nodded: "Well then. Welcome to come again next time. We have prepared breakfast. Do you want to eat it?"
Where did Liu Xuan dare to respond, she said directly: "...We are not hungry yet, thank you Uncle Li, for your hard work."
She refused so badly, and the expression on her face was a bit strange.
Uncle Li didn't seem to notice anything, he just smiled, turned around and left the cement room.
After he left, Liu Xuan stepped forward and closed the door.
Ning Meng walked to the window, opened the curtains, and the light shone in, allowing her to see the outside scene.
The people in the village are doing their own things. A person squatting across the door is still brushing their teeth. The children quarrel with their mothers...
Liu Xuan felt unbelievable: "Senior sister, are you saying that what we saw last night is true? Why did I become like this when I woke up?"
Or was it all a dream she experienced last night
She felt something was wrong, but when she turned her head, she could still see the mask brought back from the temple on the mountain.
Liu Xuan couldn't help taking out the small round mirror and taking a picture of her face.
Seeing the restored face above, even with freckles and pimples, she felt very good, and she didn't dislike it at all.
For a month, she almost forgot what her face looked like, and now she still sees it a little bit like a dream.
Finally got rid of the mask.
She said again: "Do you think all the people here are... not human? So you can survive the things like that last night?"
Liu Xuan muttered to herself: "Then what I ate yesterday was ghost rice... I used to camp here with my classmates..."
The more she thought about it, the more terrified she became, and her face became paler.
Ning Meng thought for a while, and whispered: "What happened last night should be true, but the current situation is a bit different. I can't explain why."
After all, she has seen quite a few.
The novel didn't describe this village at all, let alone what happened in it, and even the person didn't introduce it. Naturally, he didn't say how he got the dagger.
But now that the dagger is in her hand, it is finally a bit comforting.
Now she knew that the village was obviously abnormal.
She thought that something like that happened last night, these people should all die. Not only did she not have it, but it was exactly the same as she saw during the day yesterday.
It was an illusion like what happened last night.
Ning Meng knew that it was not an illusion at all. She still had a wound on her hand, and the pain at the time was not fake.
This village is really not ordinary weird.
Shi Qi suddenly said, "We can go now."
Ning Meng turned around and replied quickly: "Okay. Hurry up."
Lest something happens later.
When I came out, I met the children in the village. They all looked at them curiously, and followed them step by step.
Until I reached the entrance of the village, I ran into Uncle Li, the village chief and others who had come back from outside.
The village chief glanced at it and said with a smile: "Are you leaving? Welcome to come again next time."
Uncle Li also followed and said: "My baby likes you very much. If you have a chance, you can come and play again."
They still speak normally, very ordinary.
Shi Qi said, "Yes."
Liu Xuan responded without a smile, "Thank you, Uncle Li, for your help this time, if there is a chance in the future."
Uncle Li smiled and watched them leave.
Ning Meng finally couldn't help but look back when she reached the trail.
The village still smokes, and there are working villagers and children playing in the fields. It is peaceful and peaceful.
Uncle Li and a few middle-aged men stood at the entrance of the village and looked at them. Seeing her looking back, they smiled and waved.
Ning Meng quickly turned her head and stopped looking.
Just the moment she turned her head, she saw several men at the entrance of the village withdraw their hands and touched her face with a smile.
Several people whispered with emotion: "It hurts."
Unfortunately, no one can hear all this.
Ning Meng only saw this movement, her horror behind her back, she almost stepped on a bad foot and fell to the side, still standing still when she was supported by Shi Qi.
He asked: "What's the matter?"
Ning Meng shook his head, "... It's okay, I accidentally went wrong."
Shi Qi didn't seem to doubt it. Walking next to her, Ning Meng couldn't help asking the system, "Did they just say something?"
The system said: "Did you see it? What they said was'It hurts.'"
Its tone was normal, but it made Ning Meng's goosebumps all over, she couldn't help getting into the car and no longer look outside.
She thought those people had no memory, or they didn’t know these things at all, or they were shadows, what a mess...
But now the obvious facts lie ahead.
Those people experienced everything last night, remembered what happened last night, and successfully survived.
Is the tearing and bleeding they saw true or not
Ning Meng thought about it, feeling more and more terrible.
The driver and the man in black are in this car.
Passing the fields all the way, Ning Meng finally found out what was wrong, but there was no change in the fields after working day by day.
It doesn't look like working at all.
She pressed this strange phenomenon to her heart, and finally relaxed after the modern highway appeared in front of her.
There are melon seeds and kernels on the car, so I can take them over and eat them.
Liu Xuan was taking pictures of her face all the way, and she couldn't put it down. Now that she got rid of the mask, she only felt that she was so beautiful that no one else.
When the car entered the urban area, the bustling high-rise buildings and the crowded streets made a lot of the smog in my heart dissipated.
For the first time, Ning Meng felt that the outside was really beautiful.
In the past, she felt that the rural scenery was good and could live for the elderly. After experiencing this incident, she decided that she would not adopt this idea if she was killed in the future.
The driver suddenly said, "Master Qi, Young Master is outside."
Shi Qi moved his eyes and said softly, "Then go over."
When Ning Meng hadn't seen it for a long time, she was kind and cautious, and asked curiously, "Shall we go there too? Will it bother you?"
Shi Qi suddenly felt funny.
He pursed his lips, his eyes fell on the melon seeds in her hand, and asked, "Do you feel bothered?"
Ning Meng felt that his tone was a bit wrong, but she answered naturally, "Of course, we don't know him."
As soon as she finished her voice, she heard Shi Qi hum lightly, her face calm.
Ning Meng asked the system surreptitiously, "Did I offend him? Why did the kid become so sensitive?"
The system said: "Oh, the youth rebellious period, one sentence can understand a lot of meanings, you have to coax it."
That makes sense.
Ning Meng's tone softened a little: "Well, go see you together."
When Shi Qi turned his face to see her whispering something, she suddenly felt a little irritable.
The car finally stopped in front of a tall building.
Liu Xuan came to such a place for the first time. She felt that this was not what she should have been, and she was a little drummer in her heart.
For a long time, Shi Shanjin appeared in front of everyone.
Shi Qi called out: "Uncle."
Liu Xuan didn't know him when she saw him, and thought it was Shi Qi's father, but she finally became clear when she heard that "uncle".
It's not surprising that there is such a good-looking uncle, and the seniors are so good-looking.
Knowing that she has no reason to stay here anymore, she smiled and said, "Senior, senior sister, then I will go home first. This time I really thank you very much."
Ning Meng replied, "Don't touch things indiscriminately next time."
Liu Xuan naturally nodded: "After I know it, I dare to touch it again in the future, then I'm really not afraid of death."
She peeked at Shi Qi who was talking to an adult over there, and left here with some emotion. She and the senior are obviously not in the same world.
When she is gone, there will be three people left here.
Shi Shanjin fixed her gaze on Ning Meng, and there was a hint of surprise in her eyes, feeling that Shi Qi's thoughts this time were a bit strange.
However, proper communication is still needed, and the students are fine.
He didn't show any unexpected expressions, and said, "Just ask if you want."
Shi Qixian recounted what happened last night, and finally asked, "Are those people alive or dead?"
Hearing this question, Shi Shanjin smiled, and his tone slowed down: "This village doesn't exist."
Ning Meng was taken aback.
What does it mean to have a village that does not exist? Then why did they stay in the village for one night and communicate with those people
After thinking for a moment, he said, "I see."
Shi Shanjin nodded and didn't say anything, just told him not to act impulsively next time, and then left.
After he left, Ning Meng leaned over and asked, "What do you know?"
Why can't she understand the conversation between these two people? Is it because the content is too advanced, or because he doesn't have enough brains...
Shi Qi took a deep glance at her and said, "That village has been destroyed a long time ago. What we saw is nothing but an illusion."
Ning Meng seemed to understand, "Then why does my hand hurt?"
Shi Qi said: "Those people are long-lasting, there are images left over by special methods, everything they experience has happened in the past, each cycle... these actions will be repeated in a special time."
Ning Meng listened, remembering the actions of those people before leaving.
The system suddenly appeared: "It's a bit like some news now. Some people find that in some canyons, every time there is lightning and thunder, you can see ancient war scenes."
Now she finally understood.
But their experience is obviously more complicated than this, because people can still communicate and have their own memories, which is obviously different from that.
The system also said: "Those people are real and fake. It's not clear whether they are true or false, but what you see is what they really did back then."
Ning Meng felt cruel.
In this way, those people were real, so they tore off their faces and masks together.
It is possible that the man behind the scenes is the suppressed ghost, so so many people are needed... The same as the funeral.
The temple was probably built by the people in the village, then used to put on a mask, and finally died.
An entire village was ruined in this way.
It was really cruel and bloody, if it weren't for the existence of superior people, I don't know what else would happen.
Shi Qi suddenly said: "These need specific circumstances to be left behind. I don't usually encounter them. I didn't find out this time."
I didn't find out and survived, nothing happened.
Ning Meng suddenly felt that her cheap grandson had thick thighs, and she had to hug him tightly if she couldn't survive the first episode cannon fodder.
"But you can't stay in that place for too long, it's too yin air." Shi Qi added lightly.
Ning Meng also knew that she felt quite cold at the time.
But now all of this is resolved, and the rest has nothing to do with her, and it's okay to leave it behind.
She was sent back to the school gate.
After returning from the village, it was unusually normal for two months.
The supernatural incident seemed to have suddenly disappeared. Ning Meng suspected that it was because of the dagger.
She simply puts all her thoughts on studying, after all, if she has time to go to the college entrance examination, it is better to study hard.
And this will not collapse the human design and make people notice that something is wrong.
The house to move back was finally settled, but it hadn't been built yet. Moving in has to wait for the next year. Now she lives with Liang Fengmei in the shop next to the school. The days are ordinary and there is nothing unaccustomed to.
However, she has seen the dean of education have been here many times.
Similar to what she had guessed at the beginning, the dean obviously had a good impression of Liang Fengmei, and when the end of the term was approaching, she even saw the two go out on a date together.
Although this date is just going out to buy things together.
But Ning Meng was very happy to see such a scene. The teaching director looked good, and Liang Fengmei and Liang Fengmei were well-known fellows.
When she left, there was some support.
The only thing that made her unhappy was that when winter had just arrived, Ning Meng felt as if she had entered an ice cellar.
The whole body was cold.
At first it was just a little bit, and Liang Fengmei discovered something was wrong.
She went to tell Ning Meng to get up in the morning, only to find that the temperature of the air conditioner in the room was too high, and Ning Meng was still shrinking in the bed.
Liang Fengmei opened the quilt and said, "The air conditioner is so high, why are you still shrinking in the quilt? Isn't it just a winter? It's not like this before."
Ning Meng shivered, "I'm cold."
Liang Fengmei covered her again and touched her forehead, "I don't have a fever, is there anything uncomfortable? Or just feel cold?"
Ning Meng said, "I feel cold."
The cold is in the bones.
The last two of them had to go to the hospital for a look. Ning Meng was still shivering after registering, and forgot to bring the hot water bottle at home.
It would be better to wait for the air conditioner in the admission room.
After observing for a long time, the doctor didn't feel anything wrong, so he could only say, "Maybe it's still in poor physique. This can only be warmed up slowly. Pay attention to food."
Both felt strange.
After coming back, Ning Meng held the hot water bottle and didn't let go. With the heat source, she felt much more comfortable and could go to school.
When walking outside, she shrank her head and put on all her hats and scarves.
There is air-conditioning in the classroom, and the whole person is much more comfortable after entering.
Seeing this, Qiu Keke couldn't help but say: "Ningning, you are too afraid of the cold, how come you have formed a ball?"
Ning Meng said aggrieved: "Cold."
Qiu Keke touched her head, "The air conditioner is turned on in the classroom. Why is it still cold? Isn't your health too bad? You really need to take care of yourself."
She felt that Ningning was too soft, and she was still in poor health. She was wrapped in a ball in winter, so cute, she wanted to rub it.
But seeing her so pitiful, she still held back.
Ning Meng nodded and sat down in her seat.
When Shi Qi turned his face to the side, seeing her in her outfit, he asked in a low voice, "Really cold?"
If he remembers correctly, today is the first snow of this winter.
Ning Meng nodded obediently.
Two days ago, when she was on vacation at home, she could only carry a hot water bottle every day, stuffing it into her clothes every day, changing and covering it all day, so as not to freeze to death.
I have never experienced it before, and after a long time, I feel that something is wrong.
Ning Meng can only ask what's wrong with the system.
The system probed for a long time and said: "It may be that Yin Qi has entered the body."
Ning Meng asked, "When did it happen? I haven't been exposed to Yin Qi recently? Could it be that I am hitting a ghost again?"
The system explained: "Do you remember the previous incident in the village? The dagger suppressed ghosts for a hundred years. Together with the evil spirits, it is a very yin thing. Your hand was cut by the dagger, and it should have happened at that time. ."
Just because it is not obvious, it has not been found.
It took a long time, and it happened that winter came, and everything was revealed.
Ning Meng stared at her hand. The wound on it had long since healed and disappeared. She couldn't see where it was. "Is there any harm in the body? Except for cold."
It took a long time for the system to reply: "Maybe this body will collapse prematurely, and you will have to leave early..."
The words are very simple, and the meaning is very simple.
This body is already dead, and she can possess the body because of the system. It is not good for Yin Qi to enter the body.
In other words, she is very likely to die early.
Ning Meng's whole reaction was rather flat after listening, and I don't know why.
Seeing her nodding, her lips pressed together, her bright green eyes were still deep and charming, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Just as the class bell rang, the two stopped talking.
After the two math classes in the morning, Ning Meng has adapted a lot. The only downside is that the next two classes are all English classes.
The English teacher is an external teacher and comes from abroad. He is not afraid of the cold and does not like to turn on the air conditioner. He usually leaves the windows open.
This English teacher has a good temper and loves to make jokes. You can tell him all jokes you can't tell the teacher, so everyone likes him.
He felt that the air conditioner had been on for a long time and the smell in the classroom was unpleasant, so even if his classmates objected, he would not agree.
This lesson is naturally no exception.
Sure enough, he asked to open the window as soon as he came in.
Only after opening the window, the air-conditioning came in, Ning Meng shivered immediately, her head shrank, half of her face was covered by a scarf.
Shi Qi didn't open the window, but the English teacher had already looked this way and could only raise his hand to push.
Ning Meng didn't want to open it a bit. It was no big deal just by one window. She reached out and held his hand, "...Don't open it."
The moment I met, a burning sensation went straight to my heart.
Ning Meng didn't want to let go immediately. Damn, it was so cool, it was just like a stove, it was so cool.
But watching so many people, they still shrank back and hid in their scarves.
She glanced around and whispered, "Shi Qi, why are your hands so hot?"
Shi Qi moved his hands and didn't understand what she meant. He felt that his body temperature was normal and nothing special.
The pale hand is on the leg.
Ning Meng stared at her, her eyes flashing green.
Seeing that the English teacher had already turned over and started writing on the blackboard, she couldn't help it anymore and asked embarrassedly: "Shi Qi, we have been at the same table for so long..."
Shi Qi knocked on the table with his pen, "I have something to say."
Ning Meng licked her lips and slyly rubbed her hand over, "Look, I'm almost freezing to death, so you can cover it with me, right?"
It's a hot water bottle for walking.
Before Shi Qi had spoken, his tender white hand came over.
Is it so cold
Look at her so pitiful.
Reluctantly...
