In the rainy night, the little black cat's speed is extremely fast, like a black lightning, cutting through the night, and disappearing without a trace almost instantly.
In order to catch up with the little black cat, Xiao Li didn't have time to hold the umbrella, so he broke into the rain.
Chasing a black cat in the dark night, Xiao Li suddenly thought of a famous painting "Black Cat in the Dark Night" out of time.
The rain fell on the boy's body, soaking his whole body in an instant.
He almost lost the trace of the black cat before he took a few steps. Fortunately, a strand of hair belonging to Tanli floated out of his pocket, leading him to the northwest direction, and after running around almost the entire village After that, Xiao Li stopped.
It was a very run-down thatched hut, leaning against a dry tree with a dry well beside it. There was a hole in the roof of the house, and it could be seen that it had been simply repaired with thatch, and there were two bricks pressed next to it, but now the pile of thatch had rotted and yellowed, and the hole in the roof was exposed again. Like a black hole, but there seems to be something moving around the black hole.
It was too dark here, and Zhou Ying's cell phone floated out again, shooting a light to illuminate Xiao Li.
Only then did Xiao Li see clearly that the little black cat was squatting on the roof with a pinch of grass in its mouth, trying to fill the grass on the roof to block the hole.
Its whole body's hair is now wet and sticking to the surface of the body, which makes it uncomfortable, but the little black cat just shakes its body from time to time and throws out the rain that sticks to the hair, and is still working hard.
Taking a closer look, this thatched cottage is clearly in disrepair, with signs of damage in many places. There is a mouse hole in the window, but it was blocked by stones. These are probably the handwriting of this little black cat.
When the light of the phone lit up, the little black cat narrowed its pupils and grinned at the human who came here. It wanted to make a sound to threaten the person, but it still had something in its mouth, and just loosened the tuft of grass. It was about to fall, so frightened that it hurriedly shut its mouth, only exhaling angry air from its nose.
With its anger, many shadows began to shake around. If you look closely, it turns out that the villagers who have died are approaching here under the call of the black cat.
There was another wave of footsteps at the place where Xiao Li came from. Zhu Yiting and the other four were running towards this side in a panic, standing beside Xiao Li, all of them were like chickens.
A few of them watched Xiao Li chase the black cat away, and after a moment of hesitation, they chose to follow. Although they didn't have Tan Li's help, Xiao Li, as a human, left footprints on the soil, so the chase was smooth. Just got here and faced the current situation.
Zhu Yiting looked at the nearby villagers who were approaching here, and was about to approach Xiao Li to ask, but the other party suddenly moved.
Xiao Li walked under the thatched hut. He visually measured the distance to the roof. Holding an umbrella in one hand, he grabbed the branch of the tree with his right hand, and tried to use the branch as a springboard to jump onto the roof. However, the plan could not keep up with the changes. The tree trunk was too slippery in the rain. Xiao Li failed to jump up the first time, so he had to try again—this time he successfully jumped up, first stepping on the tree trunk, and then stepping on the roof. above.
The little black cat was even more nervous, it crouched down, and there was a little bit of a roar that belonged to a beast in its throat.
Xiao Li also squatted down. He held up the umbrella with one hand, propped it on the black cat's head, and used the other hand to pick up the grass that the other party was holding in his mouth.
The little black cat showed its claws, and Xiao Li retracted his arm to avoid it in time. He gestured and said, "I'll help you."
The kitten seemed to understand, and hesitantly opened his mouth, the pair of golden pupils shrunk into a vertical line by the light of the flashlight stared at the boy in front of him.
Xiao Li spread out the tuft of grass, flattened it to block the hole in the roof, pressed the corner with the original brick, and clapped his hands with satisfaction.
The little black cat stretched out one front paw and patted the grass tentatively with the pad.
Xiao Li looked at it for a while before speaking: "Your master used to live here, so where is she... now?"
The little black cat's ears moved, stood up high, and sat on the spot without answering.
Xiao Li stood up, looked down at the audience from above, and finally locked his eyes on the dry well beside him.
He thought for a while, he was already wet anyway, he stuck the umbrella handle directly in front of the bricks and left it to the little black cat, while he went down from the roof and walked to the dry well.
The little black cat on the roof looked at his back, hesitantly touched the umbrella handle that sheltered it with its paws, but after finding Xiao Li walking towards the dry well, the little black cat jumped from the roof with cat steps. Come down and yell at him, "Meow!"
Xiao Li bent down and looked at the edge of the dry well. Although the marks were already very light due to the rain and the passage of time, Xiao Li covered it with his fingers, and he could still feel the five paw prints. Embedded in the wellhead.
Someone fell.
And it's mostly not voluntary...
So now, is the body still in the well
Xiao Li glanced at the phone, Zhou Ying obediently flew over the dry well and illuminated the inside for Xiao Li.
The well is a bit deep, Xiao Li can only see something vaguely, he thought for a moment, turned his head and asked the group of four of the reincarnations behind him: "Do you have a rope? Actually, a ladder is better, but I don't think you guys are the same. Some look."
Tao Fei took out a bundle of climbing ropes from the pocket he had been wearing: "I have. I have been carrying these equipments since I entered this world."
Xiao Li took the rope from her hand, slightly estimated the length, tied one end of the rope to the tree, circled it twice, tied a figure-eight knot, and threw the other end into the well.
Zhu Yiting: ? ?
He glanced at Yongchun beside him and stopped Xiao Li: "You want to go in?! What... what are you going in for?"
Xiao Li: "On-the-spot investigation."
Zhu Yiting remembered the paw print: "...The body is inside? But it's very dangerous. If something happens in the well, it's hard to escape!"
He originally thought that Xiao Li was trying to use a rope to hang the black cat or mobile phone in it, but he didn't expect that Xiao Li wanted to go in by himself - this is different from going to the village chief's house, they still have room to escape, in a cramped situation , with the ghost corpse that is likely to be the dungeon boss, then you really can only stand and wait to die.
Xiao Li came to the edge of the well, and the little black cat jumped on the edge of the dry well. It paced back and forth uneasy in the rain, as if torn between whether to stop Xiao Li.
Xiao Li stretched out his hand and wanted to touch the little black cat's head, but the other party avoided it, and it made another "meow" in its throat.
"It's okay, I'll bring it up." Xiao Li said softly with a soft voice.
He was usually a little bit resistant to creatures like cats and dogs, after all, those creatures looked furry and cute.
After Xiao Li finished speaking, he grabbed the rope and jumped down from the well.
The side wall of the dry well is very slippery and covered with moss. Without a rope, it is impossible for humans to climb up.
With the help of the rope, Xiao Li successfully reached the bottom of the dry well.
Because of this rain, there was already some stagnant water here, mixed with the dead leaves and silt at the bottom of the well, Xiao Li stepped on it like a swamp.
At the bottom of the well, in addition to those dirty things, there is a skeleton, which has rotted to reveal the white bones. On the side wall near the skeleton, there is a line of indistinct handwriting that has been corroded by moss.
The handwriting is very deep, and it is not difficult to see how resentful the people who carved these are.
Xiao Li recognized the handwriting on it little by little: it's not me, there's something wrong with gathering souls, little black...
Coupled with the evil ghost he summoned when he held the Soul Gathering Ceremony, the truth was about to come out.
Xiao Li picked up the pile of bones, tried the rope, and found that it was a bit difficult to carry it up, he asked, "It's a bit difficult to hold, how about I carry you? Can you wrap my neck around me? , and thighs, too."
His words echoed at the bottom of the well, and no one answered the pile of bones.
Could it be that... the soul has dissipated
Xiao Li: "Looks like you're out of strength. Without your cooperation, I can't carry you, so I'll dismantle you and tie you under the rope. Just be patient, it won't hurt very much."
He said that he tied the skeleton to the bottom end of the rope, then pulled the rope, raised his head and shouted at the top: "Do me a favor, pull the rope."
At the mouth of the well, Zhu Yiting and the others were staring at the black cat. They were afraid of the dead corpses around them, and they did not dare to go down with Xiao Li. They were in a stalemate, but Tao Fei was still calm. She wanted to go in the house. Li investigates for clues, but the little black cat guards her tightly. Once she moves, she barks her teeth and threatens her, making her unable to move.
At this moment, Zhu Yiting heard Xiao Li's words, and thought that he didn't have the strength to climb up, so he immediately started pulling the rope with the others.
As soon as he pulled the rope, Zhu Yiting felt something was wrong, why was it so light? Has Sherlock been cut in half? Is this the only hand left
Brain tonic returned to brain tonic, and out of trust in Sherlock himself, he quickly pulled the rope up.
When the thing came to the sight of the wellhead, everyone: "..."
Rainy nights, dry wells, and bones, this visual impact is really scary.
Zhu Yiting, who bore the brunt of the brunt, almost exclaimed, "Sherlock?!"
n bs After he said this, he immediately turned his head and reacted: "... This is the ghost's... corpse... Did you really bring it up?"
They looked at each other, and for a moment no one dared to undo the rope buckle.
On the contrary, the little black cat jumped over as if seeing a relative, and bit the rope buckle with its claws. Its claws were unusually sharp, and it quickly pulled the rope apart and put the cat's head against the bones.
"The rope, throw it down again." Xiao Li's voice came from the bottom of the well.
Zhu Yiting boldly pulled the rope from the vicinity of the black cat and threw it down again.
This time, the weight that came up was indeed the weight of one person. He raised a few hands, and with Xiao Li's own strength, he quickly climbed out of the well.
He came to the little black cat, the bangs on his forehead were soaked and sticky together, Xiao Li squatted down: "I'll help you bury it."
The little black cat whimpered a few times and followed Xiao Li to the edge of the thatched hut. He picked up a few stones, dug a hole in the soil, put the bones in, and buried it again.
"You like her very much, don't you?" Xiao Li said, "You and her depend on each other, it's nothing to do, but the people of Gathering Soul Village won't let you go like this."
"There is a problem with the customs of this soul gathering village. Gathering ghosts through this soul gathering ceremony is undoubtedly a behavior of drinking poison to quench thirst. Sooner or later something will happen. Her existence and your existence are just a vent. Those villagers don't care about your life or death, they just want to find a place to vent their doubts and anger, so she was thrown into the well as a sacrifice. Her soul is very weak, it should be the villagers who scattered her soul, and you are still there, you can drive evil spirits, so you take revenge for her... "
The little black cat raised his head: "Meow."
"Would you like to follow me?" Xiao Li stroked its furry head, "or do you want to stay here?"
The little black cat squatted on the edge of the soil where the bones had just been buried, lowered its head, rolled on it, and came to Xiao Li's side again, raising one paw: "Meow."
What Xiao Li said was right, but some details were missing - those details that only the little black cat remembered.
It's tough to survive.
When the little black cat was born, the mother cat died, and the brothers and sisters also left one after another because they had no food. Only the little black cat had tenacious vitality until the girl found it.
The girl is a descendant of outsiders and villagers, but her parents died young, leaving her alone. When she saw the little black cat, she felt that she had seen another self, so she kept the little black cat. It's just that she doesn't have the conditions to feed the little black cat, so she can only feed it a little bit of rice paste every day.
It's just that as the yin qi in Juhun Village became more and more serious, and the gathering of souls often failed, the villagers turned their attention to the little black cat - the girl naturally wouldn't let them kill the little black cat, she defended the little black cat, but it was a pity that he was ignorant. On the contrary, the villagers believed that the girl was also a member of the same party, and even thought that the girl was the mastermind and the culprit who wanted to kill the village! They got more and more angry, not only beat the girl, the radicals also searched for one night to push the girl into the dry well, they watched the girl cry, removed her fingers one by one from the well, and watched her fall. Go down and die in the well.
The girl didn't remember it, but the little black cat remembered that it wandered around the well for a long time, but never thought of a way to bring the girl up, and then there was no sound from the bottom of the well.
The girl let it go, but it doesn't want to go, it wants those people to pay the price!
It stayed here for a long time, until the girl came out of the well and went to the ground, and the murderers were all killed and wounded, quelling its grievance.
Maybe... should go out
The little black cat licked his fur and thought so.
Xiao Huangben appeared next to Xiao Li: [Xiao Li, the reincarnator, completed the original task 2, with an evaluation level of s, a task completion degree of 95, and successfully printed the black cat of the plot, and obtained 1,000 Survival Coins.
[The scene is changing.]
[3, 2, 1—]
[Actually, you also look like a cat.]
[It’s fine if it’s a cat, it looks so wet after being drenched in the rain, I really want to pick it up and take it home.]
[Then put it on the bed, blow dry you, touch your hair, then give you a bath and change into my clothes by hand. My clothes are bigger, you are more sexy, and you sleep next to me. The next day, you can stay at home obediently, rub your belly, kiss your forehead, rely on me, and ask me to help you with everything.]
[Unlike now, he is not good at all, and he refuses to kiss him.]
[Obviously he doesn't like hard beds, and he still refuses to sleep with me.]
[I will also feel distressed, do you know?]
