The curtain of the sedan chair has not been lifted, and from the beginning to the end, the man who spoke has been sitting firmly in the plain green sedan chair, and has no intention of stepping out at all.
The four pale yellow eyes on the top of the sedan chair turned around, the pupils narrowed, and they were firmly fixed on the person walking towards them. Surrounded by the will-o'-the-wisps from front to back, the blue-faced ghost baby moved on the snow with patter, at a slower and slower speed.
He seemed to be very afraid of the man in the sedan chair, and it took him a long time to dawdle, before he finally walked in front of the sedan chair, and whispered again: "Daddy..."
There was no response.
A little will-o'-the-wisp opened a corner of the curtain in fear and trepidation, and the ghost baby crawled up the gap along this gap. But in the blink of an eye, this long team has been reorganized again, starting from the white snow field again, and disappearing into the white background in a blink of an eye.
The people in the temple didn't wake up one after another until the early morning, but instead of feeling refreshed, they became more and more groggy. The long-haired girl rubbed her temples vigorously, and complained to her companion in a low voice: "It feels like someone hit me hard on the head while I was sleeping."
The other girl who was with her also had a bad expression, and replied in a low voice: "I also have a headache."
Logically speaking, their sleep was quite good, but it was the first time that they felt this completely out of state after waking up.
Not only them, Song Hong and the others also noticed their depressed state, but they thought more, and immediately realized that the deep sleep of all the staff yesterday was definitely not normal-this should be some kind of rule that forced them to sleep collectively past.
For what
Song Hong got up first to check, and when he got to the red line, he immediately found new footprints. The footprints were obviously different from the group of will-o'-the-wisps that walked in yesterday. First, the number increased significantly, and second, they didn't come in, but stayed at the door for a while, and then went away to the distance.
He turned around a few more times in the same place, carefully avoiding these areas with dense footprints, so as not to destroy the clues, and soon found another line of distinctive footprints.
Compared with others, it differs by being small.
Song Hong bent down to compare, it was only about half the size of his palm. He searched twice more, but he didn't see anything going in, only something going out.
Something came last night.
This idea gradually became clear in Song Hong's mind, and he didn't say anything. He didn't whisper this discovery to his teammates until the others dispersed. He compared the size with his hands and asked, "I don't have a nephew or anything, and I haven't seen a child very much. How old is this child?"
The four looked at each other: "..."
Song Hong: "...???"
He hesitated to cast his eyes on Axue, who had nothing to do with her face, this was the only woman in their team. A Xue was still holding her big steel knife, and asked blankly, "Why do you think I will know?"
... Let's do it.
Song Hong finally realized that their team was composed of a group of people who had never raised children and had zero relevant experience.
He couldn't help feeling deeply distressed: "What will you do when you have children?"
Ashe said calmly, "I'm DINK."
Ye Yanzhi: "I like men."
Kou Dong looked up and thought about it, and said honestly: "I have it now, but it doesn't help much?"
The dead zone remains a dead zone.
Song Hong was speechless, and only looked at him several times in shock.
So young, do you even have children
He couldn't help glancing at Ye Yanzhi's expression from the corner of his eye—it was as calm and calm as before, as if he didn't respond to this sentence at all, and he seemed to be an insider.
Song Hong was even more shocked.
Are homosexuals so open now that one of them has a child without blinking
... Was it adopted
Or, is it one of them who lived with someone else...
Gossip wanted to rush in Song Hong's heart, and it took a little effort to suppress it. At this moment, a small voice came from the side: "It should be three or four months old."
Several people were taken aback for a moment, and then realized that it was Yin Qi who spoke. His sense of existence is too weak, as bland as boiled water, if he doesn't speak, he will almost forget that there is such a person standing beside him.
The young man looked around at them quickly, bit his lower lip, and added: "I have taken care of children before."
Song Hong nodded, and took the age of three or four months as a clue, "That should be the theme."
Everyone understood what he meant. He was saying that a boss had already entered the ruined temple last night.
This is definitely not a good thing, now is only the first night, and there are important NPCs who can come and go at will. More importantly, Ye Yanzhi is number two—this news is quite dangerous and unfavorable.
"It's not that simple," Song Hong finally said, "I have a guess, but it's not necessarily right. ——This order may be interchangeable in some way."
He glanced at Ye Yanzhi and reminded: "Make plans early."
Ye Yanzhi nodded, accepting his reminder. Song Hong knew that he always had ideas, so he didn't talk nonsense, and the group started to explore.
When they first arrived yesterday, they could see nothing but long, endless corridors with monotonous and repetitive scenes. Today, after turning to the long corridor, I saw five doors, which happened to coincide with their number.
There was a dirty note lying on the ground, Kou Dong picked it up, and saw that it read:
"Hanging thoughts, rushing alone;
Panic, nowhere to hide.
The ax strikes, the skull breaks, and your fingers make the soup. "
This obviously echoes the singing they heard before entering the instance.
Song Hong looked at it, but couldn't help but frowned—this meant that they might have to enter one door at a time.
It was okay for others to say, but it was obviously aimed at Ye Yanzhi, and the murderous intent was not concealed at all.
"Go in?"
"I can only enter," Ye Yanzhi said, "There is no turning back."
Song Hong looked back, only to realize that those will-o'-the-wisps appeared again at some point, floating towards them from the long corridor, only five or six meters away from them. What Ye Yanzhi said was right, they had no chance to back down at all, and they didn't even have time to hesitate to choose - they had to go in.
"Which one do you want to get in?" Time was running out, he spoke very fast, and said to Ye Yanzhi, "Don't just choose!"
Yin Qi exclaimed, with a crying tone in his voice, "Brother Song, they are getting closer!—They are going to touch me!!!"
"Shut up!" Song Hong snapped, but still insisted, "Quick, you choose first!"
Choosing one of the five doors can at least reduce the chance of accidents.
At this point, Kou Dong sincerely thanked himself for meeting such a teammate when he first entered the dungeon. Both Song Hong and A Xue are quite reliable people.
What's even more rare is that they are people who will consider their teammates in an emergency.
Only Yin Qi didn't understand the meaning of this choice, and was still panicked by the approach of those little ghosts, with his back pressed against the door. Ye Yanzhi didn't hesitate, and went straight to the door closest to him, only leaving a whisper in Kou Dong's ear, "Be careful."
The cold aura of the will-o'-the-wisp had already arrived in front of them, and before they had time to say anything, they hurriedly chose a door to enter.
Kou Dong didn't delay any longer, and pushed the door in front of him.
What hit the face was icy cold air.
He let out a breath, and soon saw a small piece of white gas steaming up in front of him. It was caused by the extreme cold.
There seemed to be a cave with no light in front of it, and it was obviously no longer within the scope of the temple. A not-so-bright moon hung overhead, foggy and covered with a blood-red halo. Kou Dong walked forward along the grassy path under his feet, hesitating slightly when he reached the entrance of the cave, and stepped in anyway.
In this scene, there is only this one set that can be explored in depth, obviously in order to let him enter it.
Since he wanted to unravel the obsession of the ghost baby, he naturally couldn't always retreat—he had to obtain these clues.
After thinking about it, he also took the pacifier out of the luggage compartment and held it tightly in his palm.
He had already made up his mind that if he ever met a ghost baby, he would put the pacifier in his mouth.
Simple, brutal, and effective.
There is no other sound in the cave, only there may be a gap at the end, and a drop of water splashes on the rock, making a subtle ticking sound. The stone wall of the cave was not very smooth, and there were many bumps and bumps on it, rough and uneven. He walked all the way in, his fingers slowly groping on the stone wall.
When people face unknown things, they generally have to touch something with their hands, so as to give themselves a sense of security.
The light in the cave is extremely dark, and the further you go, the wider it becomes. There is a strange world. There are many inexplicable interlaced lines drawn on the ground, and they are paved with black stones.
It's like gossip about heaven and earth.
The innermost one is a jade altar engraved with complicated spells, just enough for a person to sleep on it. There was also a jade bowl of the same material on the altar, the contents of it hadn't been completely drunk, there was only half a bowl of emerald-colored liquid in it, it seemed fishy and sweet, and the smell was tangy.
Kou Dong walked around the altar, then reached out to touch the jade bowl, wanting to study it. As soon as his hand touched the cold and warm side of the bowl, he felt a sudden movement under his feet, and then something suddenly jumped out from the ground he was stepping on, rising high and straight into the ground. sky—
It was a tree full of chubby fruits. The trees have luxuriant branches and leaves, and the trunk is so wide that three or four people can barely hug each other. The fruits on the top have facial features and facial features, with their eyes closed, as if they are sleeping.
People, ginseng fruit trees
Surprised and confused, Kou Dong stared at the fruits in a daze.
Damn, this is not a ginseng fruit tree!
... What the hell is this
When he was dumbfounded, a fruit on the tree suddenly opened the eyes carved on the skin, and looked at him.
Kou Dong: "... ???"
Fat Guozi suddenly became happy, and began to sway from side to side on the tree, and at the same time shouted in the voice that Kou Dong was very familiar with, who had been singing nursery rhymes, "Daddy, Daddy!"
With this voice, it successfully woke up all the remaining fat fruits. They woke up one by one, opened their eyes with surprise, and called Dad.
No matter how loud they shouted, they still tried to shake themselves down. As soon as they landed on the ground, they turned into a baby with delicate features and couldn't even walk steadily. The same arm for him to hold.
"Dad, Dad!"
Kou's father who was suddenly surrounded: "..."
He was weak, pitiful and helpless, and couldn't help taking a step back.
so much
But he only has one pacifier! ! !
The author has something to say:
Kou Tiantian: Weak, pitiful and helpless...
Planned Parenthood is great.
