At night, several people still have to find a place to stay, which is also a hassle.
The people in the village are very welcoming, but the number of rooms that can accommodate people is limited. Outsiders rarely come to Xiuse Village, and no family prepares guest rooms. Only the village chief, Wu Deli, and another aunt have a small room used as a warehouse. The chief assigned them, Xin Meng and Xiong Jiabao lived in the aunt's house, Li Yougen and Dong Xiu lived in Wu Deli's house, and You Yi was assigned to himself by the village chief when Wu Xuehua secretly grabbed the hem of the village chief's clothes. Home.
Xin Meng saw Wu Xuehua's secretly looking at You Yi and didn't know what was going on. Suddenly her brain twitched and she blurted out, "I'll trade with him and let him live with Xiong Jiabao!"
Everyone's eyes fell on him. Xin Meng was a little embarrassed. He hesitated but couldn't explain his sudden convulsion.
The village chief stroked his beard, ignored Wu Xuehua's anxious gesture, nodded and said, "That's okay, let's leave it at that."
Wu Xuehua stamped her feet angrily.
But Xiong Jiabao secretly pulled Xin Meng, "Hey, brother Xin, why don't you live with You Yi?"
How could Xin Meng tell him what was inexplicably awkward in her heart? After struggling for a while, she grabbed Xiong Jiabao's hand and said righteously, "The situation here is unknown, and it is quite dangerous to live by yourself. How can I give up for myself?" You are in danger!"
Xiong Jiabao was immediately moved and patted Xin Meng's shoulder hard, "Brother Xin, you are so... so loyal! I accept this offer, brother! But don't delay you for me, I live in my own house Sister Wu’s house is fine too!”
Sister Wu... Xin Meng twitched the corner of her mouth and didn't pursue it, "Why are you delaying me?"
"Wait for your delay!" He pointed at You Yi and gave Xin Meng a thumbs-up gesture.
Xin Meng was confused, "What?"
"Oh, aren't you the one?" Xiong Jiabao was anxious.
"Which one?" Xin Meng was confused.
"Tsk, it turns out you haven't figured it out yet!" Xiong Jiabao patted Xin Meng's head, "Sure enough, you're not yet ready."
Xin Meng: "..."
Dong Xiu was also very dissatisfied over there. He said to Xin Meng commandingly, "I want to live by myself. Xin Meng, you go and sleep with Li Yougen."
Although he didn't care about Li Yougen biting him before, he didn't want to rest in the same room with him. In fact, he didn't want to sleep in the same room with anyone, so he wanted to forcefully exchange it with Xin Meng.
But as soon as he finished speaking, before Xin Meng could reply, he felt a terrifying cold gaze falling on him. His whole body stiffened, and he turned his neck little by little, facing You Yi. On sight.
"No, no need..." Dong Xiu stammered, "I'm with Li, Li Yougen..."
Xin Meng, who was behind You Yi, didn't like Dong Xiu's commanding tone. She didn't want to listen to him, nor did she pay attention to his expression. When he changed his words, she just let it go, so she didn't notice him. Something's wrong.
Dong Xiu looked away stiffly, his whole back soaked with sweat.
If you don't change your story... you will be killed...
Receiving such a signal made Dong Xiu sweat profusely and his lips turned white.
Li Yougen, who witnessed everything, became a bystander this time, but he lowered his head in sympathy and did not dare to say a word of dissatisfaction.
There was no electricity in the mountains, and there were no entertainment projects at night, so everyone in the village went to bed very early and got into bed almost as soon as it got dark. They didn't want to worry about this anymore and hurriedly followed the assigned villagers back home. .
Xin Meng was left alone and was taken into a small cubicle by the village chief. It was very small and contained a small amount of sundries. There was also a small single bed next to the window.
The bed and bedding were all ready-made. Xin Meng thanked him, and after the village chief left, he was the only one left in the room.
He put on his clothes and lay down on the bed, but couldn't fall asleep. He looked out the dark window, and inexplicably kept thinking about a strange thing in his mind -
You Yi didn't have lunch or dinner. Could he be hungry? !
Of course, he attributed the fact that he didn't care about the mission but kept thinking about this kind of thing to his worries about the strength of the team. After all, You Yi was the strongest fighter in their team. If he was affected by hunger, the survival probability of the entire team would be It's about to drop again.
The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't sleep. The more he thought about it, the more worried he became. He also regretted that he had changed with Xiong Jiabao if he had known it earlier. Now he didn't have to worry about it. What was he doing so awkwardly at the time? Why was he acting so childishly
In the end, he couldn't lie down anymore. He got out of bed and quietly opened the door, but found that he had to pass by the village chief's bedroom before going out, which might disturb him. Xin Meng thought about it, closed the door and walked back to the bed. He held his backpack with the packaged food in his hands, opened the big window, and jumped out.
When You Yi and the others left, Xin Meng roughly remembered the direction they were walking in. When he left the village chief's house, he followed the direction in his memory. But it didn't take long for him to regret it. There were not many houses here, but there were also That's a lot. I don't know whose house they live in. How can I find them? I can't knock on the door from door to door!
While he was standing there, tangled in confusion, he suddenly heard some footsteps. He immediately looked up and saw the person walking towards him in the dark. Who else could it be if it wasn't You Yi
Xin Meng's tense body immediately relaxed, and he suddenly realized that no matter how strange the situation You Yi appeared in, it always made him feel an indescribable sense of security when he saw him.
"Why don't you sleep well?" You Yi walked to him and naturally held his hand.
Xin Meng lowered her head and looked at the hands held by the two of them. You Yi's hand was very big and generous, and the fingertips were covered with thick calluses. It was not that comfortable to touch, but his palm was very warm, as if It burns people's hearts.
This kind of behavior seems too intimate...
"I want to find you..." However, instead of withdrawing his hand, he unconsciously said what was in his heart.
You Yi didn't ask him what he was looking for, he just held his hand and led him forward. "There's something wrong here, don't be careless."
"Okay." Xin Meng was beside him, being held by the hand like a child. She didn't ask where she was going, she just responded obediently and asked repeatedly, "Have you eaten? Are you hungry? What's in my bag?" I’ve got some food for you.”
"Yeah." You Yi stopped and Xin Meng looked around. They had reached the edge of the village, which was at the foot of the mountain. There were woods behind them.
The two of them sat down with their backs against the trunk of a big tree. Xin Meng hurriedly opened his backpack, took out something to eat and handed it to You Yi. You Yi took it, tore open the packaging bag, and ate quietly, surrounded by chaos. It was quiet, with only the slightest sound of chewing and the rustling of packaging bags. The night in the mountain forest was extremely dark. Xin Meng could hardly see anything, but she felt inexplicably at ease, without any embarrassment at all.
When You Yi finished eating quickly, Xin Meng heard him say, "Try not to go out at night, there are weird people in this village."
Seeing that he finally expressed his opinion, Xin Meng quickly turned around and asked eagerly, "Why do you say that?"
You Yi said, "Don't forget, this is a horror game."
Yes, what they entered should be a horror game, but...
This village is so peaceful.
If this comfort is not the surface, there is a turbulent undercurrent underneath, it is the calm before the storm. No matter what, the game will not let them pass the level so calmly.
As soon as Xin Meng felt a little uneasy, he felt someone's hand being covered, and the hot palm was pressed against the back of his hand. You Yi said, "Keep calm, there will always be a way to pass the level."
"Yeah." Xin Meng nodded, a little surprised that the other party actually thought of going with her.
He turned around and kicked the ground with his feet, making a mess of grass beside his feet.
"that… "
"What?" You Yi asked.
"That's it..." Xin Meng pursed her lips, her expression unclear in the darkness, "The village chief's daughter, the one named Wu Xuehua, seems to like you very much..."
Although she had shown affection for Xin Meng before, it was different at first glance. At that time, she was obviously more curious and interested. Only when she saw You Yi did she show that shy little daughter attitude, so Xin Meng Meng was even more concerned about this. He usually rarely talked about others behind their backs, but this time when he mentioned Wu Xuehua, his tone was not very good. "She is an NPC, she can't..."
"I don't like her." You Yi answered without any hesitation.
The corners of Xin Meng's mouth couldn't help but tilt up, and then he tried his best to suppress it. He continued, "But, she looks quite cute..."
"Not as cute as you." You Yi said again.
Xin Meng muttered in a low voice, "How can I be described as cute as a man?" but she couldn't help but smile on her face.
When it was almost midnight, You Yi sent Xin Meng to the village chief's house and watched him jump from the window into the house. He lay on the bed and covered himself with a quilt. He said good night to him before turning around and leaving. Xin Meng had long forgotten. He was worried about whether the quilt was dirty or not, so he buried half of his face in it, raised the corners of his mouth and muttered, "I just don't want to admit that girls like him more than me... Yes, that's it." He hypnotized himself, and then gradually Fell into sleep.
Wu Deli's family.
Dong Xiu stood by the window and looked outside. Li Yougen was already lying on the bed, but still not asleep. He turned to Dong Xiu and asked, "Are they going back?"
"Yeah." Dong Xiu frowned, "What are these two people doing out so late at night? Don't think they are discussing something behind our backs."
"Tch," Li Yougen disagreed, "Maybe the two of them went out for a field trip. Xin Meng is a slut at first glance, and she usually pretends to be a bitch."
Dong Xiu Shen thought it was true. If he wasn't a slut, why would he always get into trouble with him? When he heard Li Yougen scolding Xin Meng, he felt a sense of relief all over his body. He didn't dislike Li Yougen anymore, "It's just that You Yi, he's too dangerous."
"I'm not talking about you," Li Yougen turned over and sat up, complaining, "Who told you to say, 'Go sleep with Li Yougen'? This was so ambiguous. Not only did you fail to please yourself, but I was almost killed. You were killed, and you still knew that they had that relationship, isn't that sick!"
Dong Xiu also regretted how he had not been more careful with his words at that time, and ended up stepping on a thunderbolt.
"No, these two are hooking up. We have to be careful about them stumbling upon us when we pass the level!"
Li Yougen hesitated for a moment, "It shouldn't happen. There's no conflict."
Dong Xiu adjusted his glasses and looked at him with a sneer, "There was no conflict when we were escaping, so why did you push Qi Xiaokui?"
Li Yougen turned his head to the side guiltily and changed the subject, "Think about it. Just be careful with them anyway. The most important thing is that we can pass the level."
"That's it." Dong Xiu nodded with satisfaction, but he didn't know that You Yi, who was about to reach the end of the road outside the window, turned back and glanced at the window. When Dong Xiu looked out the window again, there was nothing there. one person.
