Only then did the two men realize that there were two more strangers in the room.They let out a "huh" and didn't show too much surprise. On the contrary, they seemed to understand: "Are you two newcomers from outside?"

Chi Ming weighed the turtle in his hand a few times, and asked instead, "What are you doing?"

One of the men glanced at the headless tortoise with stiff limbs in his hand, smiled, and said in a hoarse voice, "This tortoise stole a jar of wine from us and is catching it to make wine. If you want it, give it to me." You play."

Chi Ming unceremoniously put the drunken tortoise into his pocket without even saying thank you.

It was getting late, and the woman was busy cooking, so she hurriedly introduced "My name is Zhang Xiaojie" to them, and dragged one of the men away, leaving the man with a hoarse voice standing at the table with a smile on his face. side, looking at the two thoughtfully.

Shen Qingzhuo wasn't in a hurry to say something, she smiled politely, and was about to leave—when the situation is unclear, playing hard to get is a good thing.

Seeing that the two of them left immediately, the man's smile was slightly restrained, he stood up slightly, and asked, "Aren't you curious about this place?"

Shen Qingzhuo glanced at him sideways, and replied, "It's probably a place we shouldn't be here."

The man laughed again. He looked a bit feminine, but his voice was hoarse when he laughed, which was extremely inconsistent with his appearance, and there was a sense of disobedience.He walked past the two with a relaxed expression, stopped at the door, and politely made a "please" gesture.

"Since we're here, there's no reason why we shouldn't be here. Let's go, let me tell you about this place—after all, no newcomers have come here for a long time."

……

The sky was getting late, the setting sun was setting to the west, and the afterglow dyed the sky a fiery red.The fragrance of peach blossom enters the nose, and it is so thick that it makes people want to sneeze.

The man's name is Zhong Cheng, and it is said that he has lived here for more than ten years. He watched the place change from barren to wild, and saw more and more "residents".

"What a beautiful life, work at sunrise and rest at sunset." Zhong Cheng smiled and said in a hoarse voice, "No worries, no quarrels, a harmonious and stable life, you can realize any of your dreams."

He casually pointed to an old man with a hunched back beside the ridge of the field. The white-haired old man was holding a drawing board, looking at the setting sun fascinatedly, with cloudy obsession in his eyes.

"Look, he has dreamed of becoming a famous painter since he was a child, but it's a pity..." It's a pity that the competition in that world is too cruel. He is like a tiny pebble, inconspicuous, wasting most of his life, accomplishing nothing, and living in poverty.

"But here, he is a famous painter." Zhong Cheng said with a smile, "He has lived here for eight years, and he is best at painting peach blossom forests... You must have seen his paintings."

Shen Qingzhuo's eyes darkened when he thought of the peach blossom forest, but he still didn't speak.

Zhongcheng didn't care if they talked or not, he continued on his own, "And Xiaojie...that's the woman who brought you into the house just now, remember? Her dream is to marry her childhood sweetheart, the brother next door ..."

It's a pity that the elder brother next door only sees her as a younger sister, and he is even less willing to marry her.

But what does it matter, Zhang Xiaojie is here now, isn't it the same as her brother next door?Even cooking has to be pulled together to the kitchen.

This is a place where dreams come true.

After Zhong Cheng talked a lot, he stopped talking and asked, "How is it? Do you want to stay?"

His tone was very casual, it was obviously a question, but he said it was imperative - there is really no reason for people to refuse such a beautiful place.Of course, since they have already stepped here, even if they want to go out, they can't get out.

Shen Qingzhuo heard what he meant, pursed her lips, and stopped talking.In the end, under Zhong Cheng's smile, he sighed: "It's not good... I have to cut wood and make a fire here... There's not even electricity."

Even the conditions in ordinary rural areas are much better than here.

Zhong Cheng's smile couldn't be maintained any longer: "What... what?"

Shen Qingzhuo: "The environmental conditions are terrible." The voice was gentle and innocent, "Let's go."

He pulled Chi Ming, making a gesture to leave.

Zhong Cheng's smile collapsed, his expression turned cold, his voice was hoarse, hissing like a poisonous snake, "Want to leave? I'm afraid I won't be able to."

The moment his voice fell, the fragrance of peach blossoms suddenly became more intense, almost turning into substance, wrapping people in it with stickiness, making people feel flustered.

Zhong Cheng looked at the blank look on the faces of the two people at the same time, showed a satisfied smile, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Are you still leaving?"

——Of course it is "can't go".

So the two people who looked confused were obediently arranged in the room next to Zhang Xiaojie's house, and Zhong Cheng closed the door for them with a smile, "Have a good sleep, you don't want to leave when you wake up...see you are a couple." Well, I'm really kind, I even let you live together."

The wooden door creaked shut, and the sound of Zhong Cheng and Zhang Xiaojie talking and laughing gradually spread far away, and the surroundings returned to silence.

After a while, Chi Ming whispered under the tightly covered quilt: "It's a bit boring, can I kick the quilt?"

"...Kick it."

So the heavy quilt was kicked away, and Chi Ming sat up with his arms around him.

The sun has completely set, there is no electricity here, and naturally there are no lights, and the curtains are drawn by the windows, so the room is pitch black, and you can't see your fingers.Chi Ming said with disgust: "This illusion is too crude."

Indeed, the scene here may be very real in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of two people, it is like a child's clumsy trick. There are more holes than fishing nets, which can be pierced with one finger.

However, it is easy to break the illusion, and it is not difficult to take all these living souls out safely, but who set up this place and what it is for is what they want to know now.

Shen Qingzhuo frowned slightly, thinking of the crab demon that appeared frequently recently, it had been involved since the incident of Xiaodongjun, and it was Baiyuanguo and the lost soul one after another... All kinds of things that happened recently, probably all There is a connection, an invisible thread connects them all.

He pushed Chi Ming away, got out of bed and walked to the window, gently opened a crack, a gust of cool wind blew in, and faintly brought in some voices of people talking.

Chi Ming muttered and came over: "I have to cook that crab later. The crab is so big that it can't fit in a pot, half of it is steamed, and half of it is put on the grill..."

Before he could finish his muttering, Shen Qingzhuo let out a soft "hush", and a strange, gentle female voice faintly came from the cool wind, "...Where's Brother Chen?"

"Didn't you come to see me and ask him what to do?" This was Zhang Xiaojie's voice.

The sound insulation of this house is not good, and the two rooms are close to each other, and Shen Qingzhuo and Chi Ming are not ordinary people, although their voices are very small, they can still be heard clearly.

Zhang Xiaojie chatted with the gentle female voice, and finally broke out when the other party mentioned "Brother Chen" again.She sneered, her voice faded from the smile, and she seemed a little sharp, "You are here to miss Brother Chen, right?"

The gentle female voice paused.

Zhang Xiaojie continued to sneer, "Zhang Xiaoyu, did you come here on purpose to make me unhappy?"

The woman named Zhang Xiaoyu stopped talking, and after a while, the gentle female voice sounded again: "Sister, that's not what I meant..."

After listening to it for a while, Chi Ming became impatient, and whispered to Shen Qingzhuo: "I know the plot, it's probably because the two sisters fell in love with the same man."

Shen Qingzhuo: "...you understand well."

Chi Min, who has watched countless [-] o'clock dog blood dramas, said modestly: "It's okay, it's okay, they should start arguing later..."

Before the words were finished, a scream pierced the night sky, the sound of a pile of ping-pong-pong being knocked to the ground, mixed with the crisp sound of breaking, and then a figure ran out of the house in panic.

Running staggeringly, a bloody smell wafted along the wind.

The two who could also see in the dark watched the woman clutching her stomach as she stumbled onto the main road.Seemingly exhausted, she stopped after running for a few steps, moving step by step with difficulty, her original gentle voice changed: "Zhang Xiaojie! What are you doing?!"

What responded to her was the light of Lingling's knife, Zhang Xiaojie walked over to hold her down in two or three steps, the knife in his hand reflected a cold light under the moonlight.

But her expression was three points colder than this knife light, and her voice was sharp: "I want you to think about people you shouldn't think about. I'll goug out your eyeballs. If you lose your eyeballs, I'll see how you can still look around..."

Zhang Xiaoyu screamed, but the noisy neighbors in the daytime seemed to have all disappeared at this moment, no matter how hoarse she yelled for help, no one came out to take a look at her.

Chi Ming made a "tsk", put his hands on Shen Qingzhuo's eyes, and covered them in vain, just blocking the scene of the two round blood balls rolling to the ground, he said: "Don't look, your eyes are dirty."

Blood splashed from the woman's hollow eye sockets, Zhang Xiaoyu fell to the ground, his voice was weak, and the bloody knife was casually thrown beside her.

Zhang Xiaojie clapped her hands slowly, but she didn't care about her anymore, and Shi Shiran went back to the house.

Although I know that these people are just living souls, and the injuries they receive will not directly reflect on their bodies in real life, such a brutal scene is still quite scary to watch.

Where is this place where dreams come true? This is probably the place where the evil thoughts in my heart are magnified infinitely.

Shen Qingzhuo covered the window to block the vague smell of blood.When he pushed Chi Ming away, he touched his bulging pocket, he paused, and stretched out his hand to squeeze out the forgotten turtle.

The tortoise's posture was still weird, its head was hidden deep, its limbs and a tail were as stiff as stones, Shen Qingzhuo tapped on the tortoise's shell, but there was no movement. After thinking about it, he found a basin in the corner of the room and put it in. He made a quick trick.

The cold water immediately filled the entire basin, and the tortoise floated on the surface of the water with its legs upside down, and when Chi Ming fiddled with it, it began to spin around.

"How much wine did you drink..." Chi Ming fiddled with it with one finger, "Old turtle? Crooked?"

After playing with it for a long time, the tortoise didn't respond. Chi Ming poked its stomach, pushed it down to the bottom of the water, and then let go, the tortoise floated up again, and the water waved away, emitting a smell of alcohol.

Chi Ming was very interested: "Oh, quickly light a fire and cook it, it's brewed tortoise soup!"
