escape from the world

After that, Qiao Ran restrained himself a little, and was no longer keen on intentionally causing trouble, but he had caused enough troubles inadvertently.

Xie Ying was so angry that her teeth were itching, she had nothing to do with this young man who was running faster than a rabbit.She thought it was the same with Fang Chen. Every time he cleaned up the mess Qiao Ran left behind, Fang Chen gritted his teeth.

It's rainy.

Whenever the clouds and mists rise, the city surrounded by mountains and mountains becomes more blurred, and the drizzle falls in the shallow puddles to make tiny ripples.Xie Ying discovered a long time ago that Fang Chen didn't like rainy days that much.The person who has always been in charge of the active atmosphere appears silent on rainy days. It doesn't mean that Fang Chen doesn't smile or talk because of this, but... Xie Ying always feels that those words and smiles are separated by a layer of fog, making it hard to tell whether they are genuine or sincere. pretend.

It was also a rainy day that day, the sky was dark without a trace of blue, the drizzle was falling, and no one held an umbrella.

Those dead people were all timid and evil thoughts would pop up suddenly. Xie Ying and Fang Chen were among the group of people. Someone stepped on the gravel and sprained his feet and screamed. Everyone around trembled. I saw a slight impatience on the surface, as if complaining about the fuss of the sprained foot.She was used to such emotions, lowered her eyes, hid her indifference, put on a panic expression on her face, and tightly clenched the corners of her clothes with her hands.Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Fang Chen standing in the same place, which was rare. As a guide, Fang Chen would usually actively drive everyone along. Once someone was injured, he was also the one who "cared" most enthusiastically.

But that day he didn't move, and stood quietly until a girl trembling reached out and touched the corner of his clothes, he came back to his senses and subconsciously showed a smile, an inappropriate smile.He realized it himself, and his fingers twitched.Fortunately, the girl didn't think much about it, she just thought that he was overwhelmed by the shock of so many days, and she comforted him not to hold on alone.

Xie Ying saw the trust in the girl's gaze towards him, and she suddenly thought uncontrollably—if they knew that the person they trusted so much was actually pushing them to die...

She felt a cramping pain in her stomach when she thought of this, her throat was strangled, and a sense of suffocation came up.As Fang Chen said, they are already being punished.

The rain and fog set up a barrier around Fang Chen, his hair was beaten damp, and fine raindrops rolled down his cheeks, when his light-colored eyes just lifted up without smiling, it would give people an extremely fragile feeling. The illusion, as if he is something that has been shattered, falling out of a thin glass product.

Those cracks cannot heal.

Although they don't die, no one should get used to pain.Except for Qiao Ran, that lunatic.

Fang Chen was only distracted for a short while, and soon he stepped forward to inquire about the condition of the injured man, and made a gesture to help him up. The man was very grateful, thanked him repeatedly, and spat blood on the gravel with his hand. Fang Chen saw it. But he didn't say anything, he raised his hand halfway in the air, and the arc he stretched out was cold and hard.Of course his concern is false.

Xie Ying's heart was twisted into a ball, and was split in two for a long time, one half was crying in pain, and the other half was indifferent and sober.Regardless of whether these people are guilty or not, they have no right to do this to them.This is not only killing the sinful people, but killing themselves.

Fang Chen may have already seen through that they are in hell and will eventually become cold monsters.

It will soon be dark, and there is a small house not far from here. Fang Chen needs to settle all these people in, and the rest is to wait. Nie Shi and Qiao Ran have the ability to block the evil thoughts on the mountain road, provided that Qiao Ran Don't be a demon.

A group of people rushed to the hut, it was dark but it was not time for these people to sleep.The cold wind soaked in the bone cracks, and the girl's sobs could occasionally be heard in the dark brick house.

The rain never stopped. The girl was sitting on the cold floor at the door, and there was a small "click" sound outside, which was very similar to the sound of a bird stepping on gravel-but it was raining now, and it was impossible to hear this sound.

Xie Ying immediately reacted, but she was too far away, the sound of the cracking board pierced her eardrums, the girl's right shoulder including half of her neck was pinned down by a haggard claw, the sharp nails pierced into the white tender skin, The screaming accompanied the thunderstorm.

The man closest to the girl knelt on the ground and staggered to the corner in a dog crawling posture, kicking up dust, Fang Chen rushed over and tore off the arm, and the stench permeated the room, accompanied by some indescribable yellowish liquid.Someone was retching, Xie Ying relaxed and looked around calmly.Fang Chen pulled the girl a little further away, and separated the deformed fingers one by one. No one dared to look over, even the girl was only frightened. Only Xie Ying saw it. Throwing the broken arm casually, he said softly, "It's all right." The gentle tone was completely opposite to the expression.

The wooden door was destroyed, cold wind poured in, followed by a black pupil with no white eyes and half a shriveled face.The evil thought got down and observed the people in the room.

The girl's neck was bleeding, she was completely frightened, she couldn't feel the pain, she just covered her hands there, but her eyes were looking at the door and the evil thought that almost killed her.

To a certain extent, Nightmare is immortal, and can heal quickly once injured, but this bunch of dead people are different, they have no healing ability, they are injured if they are injured, and they cannot heal themselves, let alone bring the dead back to life.This is the most tricky point, if they don't die on time according to the crime, then the punishment will be the nightmare who performed the task.And they—these dead people will lose their memory again, return to the original point, and start over.

"I... go out for a while." Fang Chen's tone was determined, as if risking his life, he stood up and his legs trembled slightly. Anyone with a discerning eye could see his fear, but no one spoke to dissuade him.Even the rescued girl didn't make a sound, she just stared blankly at the door, as if she had lost her soul.

Xie Ying turned her head away, although Fang Chen's acting skills were good, she could still read the suppressed anger from it.There are only two roads leading to the wooden house, and Nie Shi will not let go of evil thoughts, there must be something wrong with Qiao Ran

The evil thought didn't do anything else, it just lay down and looked into the room.

Fang Chen opened the window, and the cold rain and wind poured in together. Someone flinched, and their eyes fell on Fang Chen's back.Still no one stopped.

It was impossible for Xie Ying to follow Fang Chen. First, she would be suspected by others, and second, she had to watch them before they went to sleep to prevent accidents.

Fang Chen jumped into the rain curtain, and the rain was heavier than before, drowning everything around him.

The evil thought moved, and suddenly someone shouted: "Close the window!" Its attention was attracted by the people in the room again.

"Here." Fang Chen's voice was tight, but he opened his mouth despite being afraid, attracting the monster's attention, and there was despair in his voice.

The girl who was sitting slumped on the ground seemed to have just recovered, with tears streaming from her eyes, she still looked at the cracked door, and murmured: "Don't..." It was her voice that was even more desperate, her throat seemed to be trapped. torn.

As soon as the girl finished speaking, she fell straight down, and the people around her were also silent. If you observe carefully, you will find that they are indeed not breathing.

Sleep time is up.

don’t worry.Xie Ying stood up, and when she passed by a girl, she said to herself, he was pretending.

Fang Chen heard the movement in the room, turned his head and took a look, and saw Xie Ying's figure, he was looking back at the evil thought of looking at him through the wooden door.It looked at him with those dark eyes, and even tilted its head.

Fang Chen didn't take any action, and said to Xie Ying in the room, "I'll go to Qiao Ran to have a look."

"I'll go too." Xie Ying said, a little hesitant, "...is that okay?"

Fang Chen nodded, took out his dagger and took two steps forward. Without waiting for the evil thoughts to react, he squatted down and inserted it into the pitch-black chest with precision.

Leaden gray ash flew upwards and was slapped on the ground by raindrops. They disappeared without a trace, as if they had never existed, and they existed all the time, in the air, in the breath, and in everyone.

"Let's go."

On the way to the mountain pass, there was no evil thought. Before Xie Ying could respond, Fang Chen quickened his pace.

"What's wrong?" Xie Ying also had doubts in her heart, it seemed that Qiao Ran didn't let go of evil thoughts on purpose.

When they saw Qiao Ran, Qiao Ran's body was covered with dots of blood, his right arm was torn open, and the blood gushed out and flowed down his fingertips.Panting heavily, he turned his head and saw that Xie Ying and Fang Chen were still in the mood to smile, parting the corner of his mouth and uttering an unpleasant word: "Sorry, something happened." There was no trace of apology in his tone .He was shaking, unable to tell if it was pain or fear.Or neither, just plain excitement.

Xie Ying couldn't figure out Qiao Ran. Qiao Ran was really good at causing trouble, and often made them burn out.She was still wary of him.

Fang Chen didn't say anything, he stepped forward and grabbed Qiao Ran by the collar and pulled it back. Qiao Ran was caught off guard and staggered.There was surprise in his eyes, and he didn't react immediately.

Fang Chen sent the dagger into the evil thoughts, and after killing the remaining three evil thoughts, he stopped, and the tip of the knife dripped a putrid black liquid, and he also lowered his head.

Xie Ying's eyes fell into the rain, and the moment she closed her eyes, she heard Qiao Ran say: "I thought you would be happier seeing me like this."

Fang Chen paused, raised his head with an inexplicable expression: "Why?"

This reaction was so sincere that Qiao Ran was stunned.

"...Don't you hate me? I got into a lot of trouble."

It turned out that he knew it himself.

Xie Ying glanced at Qiao Ran who was facing away from her. His wounds were almost healed, but there was still blood on the clothes, and there were scratches on the fabric on the back. Maybe he had been scratched by evil thoughts before, and his skin was torn apart.But now it's intact.

"Hmm." Fang Chen was a little hesitant. He looked beyond the two people and looked further away. Qiao Ran straightened his back and waited for Fang Chen's answer wholeheartedly, without paying attention to the details.Xie Ying seemed to be aware of looking behind her - Nie Shi didn't know when she appeared there.

"What's the matter with me?"

The raindrops corroded the listener's body at that moment, Xie Ying felt her whole body was completely cold, this time she really saw Qiao Ran trembling.

Fang Chen's answer was so reasonable, Qiao Ran was so irritated that he couldn't speak clearly, and he said, "It's not wrong for me to kill those monsters!"

"Ah."

"They have no thinking, they are evil thoughts differentiated from those sinful people!"

"Ah."

Qiao Ran's indignant tone set off Fang Chen's calmness more and more. Like a child who couldn't get candy, he fought hard and vowed to bring everyone's attention to him again.

—he was drawing their attention.

Xie Ying came up with this ridiculous idea, wanted to deny it immediately but choked up.Maybe that's it?Qiao Ran couldn't stop these evil thoughts because of his limited ability, but he still had to pretend he didn't care, lest they would see his embarrassment.

those scars.Xie Ying couldn't help but looked at Qiao Ran, seeing how torn the clothes were, they were hanging on the boy's body and were stained black and red with blood.It is impossible not to be in pain, even if he does not die, the pain will not be reduced by half.

"They should disappear...so should those who are guilty," Qiao Ran's voice cracked as Fang Chen flattered, "I didn't do anything wrong."

Fang Chen: "Yes."

Qiao Ran's eyes were full of anger, he couldn't figure out why Fang Chen was so calm, as if he really didn't care about the trouble he caused.She echoed him with her mouth, but her casual attitude had already completely denied him.

His language became more aggressive, as if he could emphasize his own existence in this way: "But you don't, you obviously have the ability to kill them, but you don't! You would rather be among those sinners than kill evil thoughts on your own initiative! Is it disgusting? The evil thoughts of killing those rotten meats make you feel sick?!"

The rain softened and soaked into the skin finely. Fang Chen tilted his head, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He shook his head to deny Qiao Ran as well as himself.After a long, long few seconds, so long that the rain was hanging in the air, Fang Chen raised his head, still with those smiling eyes.Xie Ying felt that the air around her was thin.She was dying again.

Fang Chen asked in a very soft voice: "Aren't we rotting?" An evil thought suddenly appeared from behind him, and then a bullet hit the center of his mouth. Before Qiao Ran could turn his head, he heard Fang Chen say, "It's not just us. , and so are the living.”

Nie Shi put down his gun, walked past Xie Ying and Qiao Ran to Fang Chen's side.

Those evil thoughts, those living and dead human beings, including the lingering nightmare in the world, are all the same.Festers from the inside out.

In Fang Chen's view, they were no different from those monsters.

They are killing a part of themselves.

The author has something to say: Yes, according to the value of force, he is superior to Qiao Ran. Qiao Ran is still a rebellious boy at present.
