"I'm a little confused..."
Chen Bin pointed to the tombstone and said softly, "What does this mean?"
Youhuo didn't answer immediately.
He took a few steps to the side and swept away a layer of mud along the traces dug by the other two ghost hands.
The second tombstone is exposed.
Name: Chu Xiaonan
Admission ticket number: 860575-04221703-1124
I will miss you forever.
Tombstone: B
Address: No. 2, Chasu Village
In the photo is an oval-faced girl with a high ponytail, without a smile. Looking handsome and capable.
If she let loose a few locks of her hair, wrapped it in a heavy scarf, changed to an ankle-length winter coat, and added chapped lips and dull eyes…
That's the woman who chiseled ice every day by the river.
The faces of the people were even more ugly.
They stood in silence for a moment and started dredging.
The third, the fourth, the fifth...
The area that everyone rummaged through was getting bigger and bigger, and more and more tombstones were exposed, so many people's scalp was numb.
They found other familiar faces one after another.
For example, the other two villagers who go to the river every day, and the village chief...
Chen Bin's face turned pale.
This time there is no need to confirm, he also knows what is going on—
Those villagers who looked confused were once candidates.
Those who are called "A, B, C, Ding" were not born NPCs in this mountain village. They used to have names and surnames.
You Huo squatted in front of a tombstone and looked up.
The forest could not see the end.
It is impossible for them to dig here all night, not to mention that even if they really don't eat or sleep, they can't finish digging this mountain.
It is impossible to know how many people were buried under the woods.
…
Lao Yu murmured in fear: "How could this be? Why did they become villagers? And... and there are so many graves, if these candidates will become villagers, how come there are only 18 households?"
"There is something here!" Yu Yao suddenly said.
She knelt down in front of Zhao Wentu's tombstone, holding a transparent waterproof bag in her hand.
"Where did you find it?" You Huo walked over.
"Buried here." Yu Yao pointed to the ground.
With her big belly, it was inconvenient to move, so she dug out little by little along the edge of Zhao Wentu's tombstone.
Not long after digging, I found this waterproof bag.
The bag contained a pen and a leather notebook.
"It should be this Zhao Wentu's relic." Yu Yao said.
You Huo opened the waterproof bag and took out the book, just as he was about to open it and paused.
He looked down at Zhao Wentu's tombstone and said, "Borrow it and see."
He said this in a low voice, like a casual grunt, that no one heard except the invigilator who had to follow him.
Qin Jiu's eyes moved slightly when he heard the words, and he looked at him for a while.
And the young man on the tombstone is still smiling.
…
Just flipping through it can tell that this is Zhao Wentu's diary.
More precisely, his exam notebook.
Wandering skipped the rest and turned directly to this exam.
…
Foreign language first day sunny
The luck is really bad this time, and the draw is not English!
There are not many people who speak Gypsy in the world, and this ghost system dares to test. But it's not unreasonable, there is really a girl among the new teammates who understands it.
I think "slightly" is a modest speech, anyway, she translated the listening question quite smoothly.
The girl wrote the name of the black woman on the spot, awesome!
She said that the name Floure means "flower", which is very beautiful...
Okay, I really have nothing to say.
Except for her, the other teammates look unreliable (hopefully soon, I will come back and slap this face hard), or it may be that my expectations are too high, after all, the previous teammates are really hard to meet beg.
The villagers said that to enter the black woman's door, you have to draw cards (thanks to my ex-girlfriend for letting me know the tarot cards and memorizing the meaning of the full set of cards. I didn't think that this thing could be used for real purposes.) But I'm cheap. , took a hanged man...
In the afternoon, I was locked in the house by the black woman and sewed dolls for a long time. Manual work is killing me, and I sewed one hand and one leg in one afternoon.
A little worried, don't know what the intention is, it won't be a good thing anyway.
It's 9 o'clock at night, ready to sleep, wish me a good dream.
Ps: This village is really weird.
Foreign language day 2 cloudy
Dead, two.
One was because the doll had its limbs chopped off.
I know that sewing dolls is not a good thing. If you don't sew, you will die, and those who sew the most will be chopped. There is so much blood in the mother, and people have disappeared, what is the difference between this and death
The hapless teammate was young, as if he was still in high school. I just met yesterday, and I remember him saying that his father's surname was Lin and his mother's surname was Tang, so he was called Lin Tang.
Hey…
The scene was too bloody, and I didn't want to recall or memorize it in detail.
Another is being forced into a coffin because of wrong answers.
We answered the second listening question wrong, but how could it be wrong? Really can't figure it out...
The girl translated the story told by the black woman for us. It is said that it was because the previous village chief was too cunning and thought that she was too unlucky to do a deadly job, so she pushed her out for years and months, causing her husband and children to jump to death (I suspect that the village chief hired someone to do it, and then the black woman took it out again. The last village chief was killed?) She said that she buried her whole family in Dongshulin, and since then she has been addicted to making dolls, because in her family's belief, dolls can convey all emotions, and she will miss her family by this.
The sister filled the East Woods, just in case, added another sentence to the grave. That would be wrong!
I can't figure it out, so I want to go to the East Woods to have a look. But the villagers reminded us not to go into the woods, they seem to be very afraid of it. With the lesson from last night, everyone agreed to sew dolls today, and they only sewed the left arm. That way you won't be able to pick the most.
It's 8 o'clock in the night, and there will be a meeting to discuss the answer later, wish me a good dream.
Ps: I still think the village is weird, especially those villagers. The girl said that the Gypsy language engraved on the stele outside the village represents "black land", and the black symbolizes unknown and death, which is the same as the "black" of the black woman.
This is a "place of death".
Foreign language day 3 cloudy
Another teammate died.
Or because of the doll.
It is useless to sew the same thing, it is calculated according to the superposition of two days. Did I already sew two arms and one leg
The only good thing is that I answered the question correctly today.
The black woman's prayer letter is very long, and the girl can only understand a small part of it. We even guessed and thought that the doll in black was a bit like Villager A. The prayer letter said to stand at the door and knock three times, saying, "I have a gift for you", and it must not be wrong. We did, and the door actually opened, but when X saw the doll, he went crazy on the spot...
Forget it, I don’t remember the slaughter, it’s too tired, just live.
Today, everyone negotiated again to keep the total number of sewing dolls the same.
It's 8 o'clock in the night now, and there will be a meeting later to get an answer... There are fewer and fewer people, and if this goes on, we can't call a meeting.
Foreign Language Day 4
Another dead.
The total number of sewing dolls is the same, and cutting people becomes random.
Plus, something terrible happened...
Villager A's house was replaced, and the person who lived in was actually Lin Tang, who died on the first day.
It's really Lin Tang, not someone who looks alike, even the moles are exactly the same.
He looked in a trance, holding an iron basin to cut ice like other villagers. The most terrifying thing is that he doesn't know us and doesn't remember his own name.
He said his name was A, the previous owner had left and the house was vacant. He just moved in today and will settle here in the future.
Could it be that... taking a doll means liberation? Will the candidate whose limbs be cut off will replace him as a new villager
It's 7 o'clock at night, and there are only three people left.
I think... I may not be able to survive this exam. Although I have been mentally prepared for each exam, it is still a bit sad at this time.
Hope to keep the girl alive one more day, this exam is difficult for her.
If there is a 1 in 10,000 chance, we will pass the test successfully... I hope to see her again in a certain city one day, and change to a less rubbing self-introduction to get to know her again.
Well, I am dreaming.
Foreign Language Day 5
I was hacked but alive again.
It has hands and feet, and it feels strange to the touch, like cotton wool.
If this is alive...
I can't remember what happened yesterday.
While there is still time, I will dig a grave.
I hope I can still remember who I am after the tomb is dug.
wish her a good dream
My name is Zhao Wentu.
My name is Zhao Wentu...
…
The real recording came to an abrupt end here, and the last one already showed signs of incoherence.
On the reverse side of this record, the five words "My name is Zhao Wentu" are written all over, and the more you get to the end, the more clumsy you are.
In the last line, there is only one "I" left.
…
After reading Zhao Wentu's diary, everyone's chest is cold.
Judging from the contents of the diary, this tombstone was really erected by Zhao Wentu himself.
Before standing up, he kept repeating his name, trying to remember it longer.
But when he actually wrote "rest in peace" on the tombstone, he has become a villager and can't remember anything.
Maybe at a very occasional moment, he will suddenly feel that he does not belong here, and suddenly feel that a certain visitor seems familiar, but he will never be able to tell the reason.
So, he became the lunatic known to everyone here.
When the ghost hand chopped people, he said that obedient guests can live, and those who are disobedient can only die.
Can this be called living
Cutting off the hands and feet is like a curse. The candidates who have been cursed become villagers. They will be bound in this mountain village forever, and bear the titles of A, B, C, D, and so on. Until one day, a new candidate will give the correct doll to the he.
Until then, he can't really die...
No wonder the villagers were so afraid of the black woman, because they used to be candidates.
No wonder they are reluctant to enter the woods, because there are their own graves here.
…
You Huo turned the last page without any expression on his face.
He stuffed the diary back into the waterproof bag, intending to bury it where he was, but changed his mind halfway through.
He carried the bag and said, "Let's go."
"Where are you going?" Everyone was at a loss as they hadn't recovered from their emotions.
Youyou: "I don't want to take the test. I will finish the doll tonight."
The boss said "send the baby" on his mouth, but "exploded the examination room" on his face.
