In this holy village, which seems to be regular but is actually strange, there are many things that bother me, but the most annoying thing is the uniform uniform distribution of clothes to the villagers.
Wearing a white sheepskin jacket, a white blouse, and white pants, if you go out at night, your whole person will be as obvious as a searchlight.
Although at night here, due to the shortage of electricity, oil lamps are used every night... but the contrast of colors is like this.
I have never thought about this problem before, because there is not a night when I need to go out. But today, when I rolled up my sleeves and looked at the bugs crawling restlessly on my arms, constantly pointing the direction, I realized that going out is What a difficult thing, even this is conspicuous enough, let alone the village affairs patrolling alternately 24 hours a day at night
However, there is no other way. This village is so "regular" that there is not even any clothes for me to change and wash. These clothes are collected and washed once a week by the village administration. Therefore, even if it is dangerous, I can only go for it. Being trapped here indefinitely without being able to break through is not an option. Maybe Ruyue has thought of a better way.
In the vast darkness of night, the whole village was extremely quiet. It was already the so-called bedtime. In this village with strict rules, talking was not allowed, so everything seemed a bit too quiet.
When I had no other choice, I was extremely single, because I couldn't avoid it, so it was better to reach the destination I wanted to go quickly, so when I rushed out of the house, I didn't avoid anything, neither dodged nor did anything. Slow down.
Because I had experience with this kind of bug, I just lowered my head and walked quickly in the direction it pointed. What surprised me was that I didn’t meet any so-called village officials along the way. It wasn’t until I passed through the dense cave dwellings that From the living area to a somewhat remote place, I had a safe journey.
This remote place seemed very strange to me. The moonlight fell on the loess, reflecting an indescribable light. I saw that it was surrounded by low and flat soil slopes. , where I am is an open space surrounded by earth slopes.
However, Kisaragi is not here as I imagined, but in this quiet and deserted environment, I actually feel a bit of relaxation, a little bit of freedom... I am not worried about Kisaragi, because although the insects It no longer provides direction, but it is still very active, which means that people carrying the same bug are fine.
Crouching casually at the foot of a low slope, I quietly lit a cigarette. Before I finished smoking, the sound of tiny footsteps sounded. I didn't feel any danger, so I just looked up. , I found that the person who came was not Ruyue, but Lu Shan... We exchanged a look, and Lu Shan quickly walked over and squatted next to me.
Even after being separated for ten days, the familiar, trusting and casual feeling between each other has not disappeared. Lu Shan took a cigarette from me and asked casually: "Chengyi, have you also received a bug like the moon?"
"Yeah." I answered simply, thinking that no wonder it was different from the bug Ruxue gave me before. This bug was not as simple as a mother-and-child bug.
Then, Lu Shan and I started talking in a low voice, just to exchange the information we got in this village. During the conversation, we discovered that we actually knew about the same thing about each other. He was also observing everything silently. The only difference was , I went to the rec room and got more information from the bartender.
While Lu Shan and I were talking, everyone came one after another. Hui Gen'er was especially excited because he thought that such a gathering was something we wanted to take action. His mind was relatively simple and he did not observe us. There were so many of them, so I didn’t feel the huge pressure from this mysterious village, thinking that we could still be like before, and we could forcefully break through anywhere with our group.
It's a pity that some forces in this world cannot be overturned by us even if it costs our lives. Why don't we give up but don't want to think about it? Is it because we always want to move towards the light, even if there is only a little hope
Compared with everyone else, Ruyue was the last one to come here. With her arrival, we were finally together again after being separated for ten days. This is a happy thing. Compared with being trapped in The village is cut off from all connections with the outside world, and the feeling of being 'alone and helpless', having friends to rely on can always bring great comfort to the soul.
But I have to say that this is also a miracle, but I didn't expect that this miracle was created by Ruyue.
"Tell me, what's going on?" I couldn't help but be curious. If it was a coincidence that I came here smoothly, it was no coincidence that everyone came here smoothly.
Ruyue smiled sweetly, and then said to us: "What else can it be because of? Because I can use Gu. What I distributed to you is actually the most precious nest of Gu in my body, to be precise, it is the mother-child worm. There is no difference, but after special cultivation, they have formed a family with the mother worm as the center. Unlike the mother worm, there are generally no more than four, and the mother worm was placed in this place by me, so we We can gather here."
Ruyue said it in an understatement, but things are definitely not that simple. If you think about it carefully, there are many things worth wondering about.
Looking at the curious eyes of all of us, Ruyue casually pulled a strand of hair hanging by her ears, and then said: "As you know, my life Gu and I are connected by life. To a certain extent, it What I feel is what I feel. There are Taoist masters and cultivators in this place, but there may not necessarily be masters of Gu magic. Unintentionally, I thought that since I can't see this place with my eyes, I can use it. His natal Gu."
Ruyue was referring to the fat silkworm that Ruxue left for her. She didn't expect the role of the natal Gu to be so great... Thinking about it further, this is completely possible, because the fat silkworm is not an ordinary insect, it is the most unique The reason is that because of its own 'level' relationship, I guess it should have a spirit, an extremely powerful spirit, although it cannot be called a soul... And the feeling of connected lives is so strange, equivalent to the moon. Part of his soul also rests on Fat Silkworm's body. The most advanced method of planting natal Gu is also so planting, so Fat Silkworm is Ruyue's eyes.
In fact, Silly Tiger can also do these things, but unfortunately Silly Tiger is too 'conspicuous', and there are Taoist masters here. In comparison, Ruyue Fat Silkworm plays a greater role.
After understanding this section, I felt vaguely excited. I looked at Ruyue and said, "Speaking of which, do you know all the terrain information about this village? Then..."
"Not only that, I also know more." Ruyue asked us to calm down for a moment, and then explained everything she knew in detail.
First of all, the reason why we didn't meet any villagers along the way is that Ruyue discovered a strange pattern through Fat Can's observations every night, that is, every night after we finished the so-called worship, the villagers generally patrolled Once the area is cleared, that is, after about half an hour, it will mysteriously disappear for one to two hours.
Just because we are generally restricted by the rules here at night and have never thought about going out to inquire, we think that the village affairs are always patrolling. This is a misunderstanding caused by the rules, so it also suppresses us to be extremely careful.
Ruyue discovered this pattern through Fat Silkworm, so she let us go out boldly.
As for why she mysteriously disappeared and where she went, Ruyue has been kept secret and has not been explained for the time being.
Then, Kisaragi asked us all to gather together, and she took turns lighting up the lighter and began to draw a strange topographic map for us.
"The so-called village is like this. In this large plain sandwiched in the valley, the center is actually like this." She simply drew a column in the middle, and then explained: "This is in this plain. There is an independent mountain in it, and next to it are high and low loess slopes. When you enter from here, there is a small low mountain."
Kisaragi drew a line somewhere on this column, indicating a path... Although Kisaragi's painting skills are not very good and the painting is extremely abstract, we still roughly understand the meaning.
It's like a cake with a strawberry in the middle. The strawberry is the mountain standing in the plain, and the other places are naturally the plain where we live. Since we are not overlooking this place from the air, we naturally cannot discover this... .
"The so-called village is actually divided into nine areas, all of which are arranged in a circle around this low mountain. When you came over, I knew through the female insect's induction that the third brother was here and that the Chengxin brother was here. .." Ruyue gestured one by one, and soon clearly drew our location.
Naturally, I also understood that the place where she asked us to meet should be a taboo place, which happened to be the entrance to the short mountain path. Ruyue said that she painted it very small, but in fact it is very big. This is the entrance. A small, surrounded flat area.
At the entrance? But where is the entrance? I looked around and couldn't find it at all!
