The old man felt a little baffled. He had just seen eight strange men go in with great fanfare. Why couldn't he see anyone now? Not only them, but also the old Tang couple who originally lived in the house were missing.
Old Tang is my adoptive father. People in the village, regardless of gender, old or young, like to call him that, even children of all ages. My adoptive father was an honest man who rarely got angry, so he allowed the villagers to yell at him and play with him.
When the old man saw that there was no one in Lao Tang's house, he felt very strange. But this is someone else's house after all. Without the owner's permission, I couldn't go in directly. After thinking about it, I decided to forget it. At worst, I would come back to help another day.
When he returned to his home again, he found that his door was locked from the inside! Looking in from the window, I could vaguely see an embroidered lock hanging on the door, which I used to lock the do
We arrived at the door of Aunt Zhang's house. There was light coming from the second floor of her house. It seemed that she was not asleep yet. I knocked on the heavy iron door, and immediately heard the sound of dogs barking inside.The lights on the second floor dimmed for a moment, as if someone stood up to block the light, and then turned on again. I knew someone was coming down. Sure enough, not long after, the sound of slippers stepping on the ground could be heard in the courtyard, and Aunt Zhang's somewhat old voice said: "Who is it?"As soon as Aunt Zhang's voice sounded, the dogs in the yard stopped barking immediately. I shouted through the door: "Aunt Zhang, it's me, Chen Xiao!"Although Aunt Zhang has a habit of gossiping, she is very kind-hearted in nature. I thought Aunt Zhang would be very happy to know that I was back, but I didn't expect that as soon as my voice fell, the footsteps in the yard stopped. The footsteps showed that she was stil
Regardless of the outcome, I finally breathed a sigh of relief when I saw that Du Xiaosheng was no longer farther and farther away from me. I immediately followed him a few steps and ran to Du Xiaosheng's side.He looked forward in confusion. There was no one else around him. It seemed that we had lost him. I asked: "What's wrong with you?"He didn't answer, but frowned. I knew I was thinking, so I turned around to look at the way we came. I was running in a hurry and didn't remember the route. There were dense poplar trees behind me, and I couldn't tell which direction we were in.This is not a problem, we all brought our mobile phones, and we can find the way back to the village using GPS positioning. The first problem now is that black shadow. I believe that Du Xiaosheng's endurance is definitely no worse than that of the shadow, and he will not use up his strength easily. Since the shadow can get rid of us, why does it disappear at this time? I looked ar
I saw that his mask was actually a plastic mask sold at a street stall, in the shape of the Monkey King, and I couldn't help laughing.The black shadow showed a sly smile and suddenly said: "Chen Xiao?"I was startled. It's not that I'm wondering why he knows my name, but because his voice is very old and hoarse. If I hadn't seen that his body was very young and strong, I would have thought that I was looking at an old man in his waning years.I didn't answer his question, but asked: "Who are you?"The shadow coughed and spit out a lot of blood. He said: "This friend of yours is very aggressive. His name is Du Xiaosheng, right?" After a pause, he said again: "Or Mr. Song?"Du Xiaosheng smiled when he heard this. His smile was not as sinister as the shadow, as if he was hiding thousands of bad thoughts. Du Xiaosheng smiled very gently. If the scene was not wrong, I would have had the illusion that he was having a love affair with his lover.
"But I already feel very tired. Is this also an illusion?""That's a signal from the brain. It tells you that you are very tired now and need to rest. But in fact, you haven't even moved your muscles, so how can you feel tired? And these feelings only stay within the formation. If we leave this formation, you will probably be more energetic than when you just woke up."Du Xiaosheng asked me to put him down, and then asked me to help him walk to a poplar tree. He leaned against the tree and said: "The formation can only be established by knowing the magic. If you want to break it, you must find someone who knows the magic." A man of law.”I smiled bitterly and said, "Stop entertaining me. Where can I find someone who knows magic in this barren mountain? Could it be that you are Doraemon and can use any door to call Qin Wenze or Wei Wuchu?" Come? Fortunately for Qin Wenze, even if you really called Wei Wuchu here, it's not certain whether he will help us."
I quickly understood what Du Xiaosheng meant. What he said is not nonsense. If that is the case, I don't know whether to be sad or happy. But if we had always been in the formation world, then my adoptive father might not have passed away, and I could still have a reunion dinner with him and my adoptive mother. But the question is, who is controlling our thoughts behind the scenes? Their scope of control even includes our store, and they can arrange magic circles around the store at any time.There's no point in making any guesses now, it's more important to find a way out. I already have a phobia about thinking about solutions. I get irritated when I mention "solutions" and I can't calmly think about them at all. On the contrary to me, Du Xiaosheng sat down calmly, held his chin and thought for a while, and then suddenly said to me: "Mr. Chen, please lend me your mobile phone."I don't know what his intention was, but since he wanted to borrow my phone instead of
A person who knows how to use magic can only create one formation at a time. In other words, formations created by the same person cannot appear repeatedly. The research and experience in the field are different, and the sizes produced are also different. According to our experience here, the size of this formation is at least two kilometers long, and the width is unknown. Therefore, the person who created the formation must be a master of magic, someone who can fight against someone like Wei Wuchu.However, there are very few people with the same level as Wei Wuchu, so that person must be an ordinary warlock whose magic is above average and can barely create a large formation. We have been in the formation for at least twelve hours, and it is estimated that it will be difficult for that person to continue to maintain it.Although I knew so much, I was still a little confused and asked him, "How do you know so much?"Du Xiaosheng sighed and said, "Do you rea
There is less farm work in winter, and every household begins to prepare for firewood in the cold winter. Most families are not equipped with home appliances such as induction cookers and rice cookers, and they still rely on primitive firewood for cooking. Every winter, the "idle people" at home are mobilized to go deep into the mountains to cut firewood, which is enough for most of the year.When these people saw us, their reaction was no longer as obvious as the day before. They were still unwilling to talk to us and seemed to hide away whenever they could. Ever since Du Xiaosheng told me that he saw the black shadow whose face looked exactly like mine, I vaguely understood the reason for the change in attitude of these villagers. Maybe someone saw the leader and the missing adoptive parents and thought I was a white-eyed wolf who was plotting to kill his parents. I have long been accustomed to this attitude, but Du Er didn't care so much. He followed me back to my ho
Although I greeted him with a smile on the surface, deep down I was thinking about what Qin Wenze just said. Could it be that Mr. Zhou's confidentiality work was not in place, causing Qin Wenze to begin to doubt our plan? Thinking of this, I suddenly felt that Old Man Zhou was deliberately leaking the details in order to trap me in the vicious circle of grudges between them and Wei Wuguo, so that I would be targeted by Wei Wuguo?It's definitely not that simple.After sending Qin Wenze away, Du Xiaosheng helped me stagger back to the car. I drank a lot, so I definitely couldn't drive, so I had to let Du Xiaosheng, who had never touched alcohol, act as my driver. Spurred by the friction of the car, I quickly fell asleep and woke up again at noon the next day.Sleeping for a long time in a row was too much for me who had not slept all night. When I got up, my waist hurt. When I sat up from the bed, I realized that I was lying on Du Xiaosheng's bed.Du Xi
