Chapter 57 Snow White Village 3
Chapter 57 Snow White Village 3
"It's not that simple." Dong Yun shook the snow on his shoes and said in a low voice, "We've only played the game for less than half a day. How could we find the key clue so quickly? Besides, isn't this too obvious?"
"That's right." Wang Peng touched the back of his head.
At this time, the sound of the iron chain being pulled suddenly came from a house ahead.
Everyone saw a big black and white dog rushing towards them, but because it was tied by a chain, it could only keep sprinting and falling in that small area.
It didn't bark at first, and after several attempts to bite, it barked loudly.
Unsurprisingly, the sound caused other dogs to bark, one after another, so loud that the whole village could hear it clearly.
Xu Shu's first reaction was to find a place to hide, but then he thought, this is not the usual muddy road, their footprints have been left on the snow, there is no way to hide.
Seeing that Wang Peng and Yang Xiao were about to turn around to hide, he quickly stopped them: "There are footprints on the ground, and we can't hide, so let's say we came out to look around."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the house with the dog on the leash opened.
A woman in her thirties poked her head out from behind the door, looked at the people vigilantly for a while, and asked, "Who are you, why are you in our village?"
Xu Shu laughed and said, "We are staying in the village temporarily, the village chief knows. The three of them live in the village chief's house, and we live in Ma Laoliu's house."
The other party nodded, said oh, retracted his head, stopped when he was about to close the door, and said: "The road is slippery, don't walk around."
He closed the door without waiting for their response.
Everyone looked at each other and continued to move forward quietly.
A few minutes later, they saw the two sets of footprints disappear in front of a house.
This house was built in a strange way. From the outside, it looks like a row of houses with at least three or four rooms, but there is only a gate on the right side, and a whole wall behind it.
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a residential building.
"What should we do now?" Yang Xiao asked in a low voice.
The others thought for a while, and then Ji Chuan was the first to say, "Go ahead."
Almost all nodded in agreement.
Xu Shu thought to himself, the quality of players in this game has really improved compared to before, no one will ask why, and no one needs to explain.
The six people kept walking, and continued to walk forward, only stopping when they were more than 50 meters away from the house, turned around and walked back.
When they passed the house twice, they deliberately slowed down and tried to listen to the movement in the house, but they couldn't hear anything.
"Go back." Wang Peng whispered.
Now is not the right time, as long as they know that there is a problem in this place, it will be a big gain.
On the way back, Xu Shu asked Dong Yun and the others, and learned that the village head also warned the three of them not to go out after nine o'clock in the evening.
They also asked the village chief about raising dogs, and the village chief's performance was similar to that of Ma Laoliu, who seemed unwilling to say more.
It is estimated that the situation of Cui Can and Zhou Ting is similar.
In addition, the village chief has a son in his twenties, and there seems to be no mistress in the family, only his father and son.
The son's mental state seemed to be not right, and he was locked in a room alone by the village chief, but he didn't shy away from the player.
When Huo Yun and the others first arrived, the village head led the three of them to the front of the house, and opened the door to let them see his son, saying that he was a little mentally ill.
At that time, the man was sitting on the kang, staring at them sharply.
"That look looks like he's going to kill us," Zhang Ya said.
Xu Shu and the others didn't have this kind of situation. Although the doors of Ma Laoliu's house were all closed, it was probably just to keep out the cold, and no room was locked.
The two sides communicated again, but did not get more information.
The six separated in front of the village chief's house, and Xu Shu, Jichuan and Wang Peng returned to Ma Laoliu's house.
The three of them warmed up by the fire in the main room, the trousers were still wet, and Ma Laoliu came back.
The first thing he did when he entered the room was to ask the three of them, "Have you ever gone out?"
This is something that cannot be concealed, so Xu Shu said without changing his face: "Yes, we were walking around the village, and we saw footprints on the way, and guessed the location of the village chief's house, so we called the three of them out together. gone."
"Uncle Ma, the houses in your village are really unique." Ma Peng said, "Especially there is a house inside, a rectangular shape, with only one door on the right, and no windows at all, which is so rare!"
Ma Laoliu twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "I'm going to make food."
"I'll help you." Wang Peng got up quickly and said, "You two should warm up here and see how wet your trousers are."
As he spoke, he walked up to Ma Laoliu, and said with a smile, "Uncle Ma, let's go, I'll help you light the fire."
The two left the main room one after the other, and walked into a room on the right, which was obviously the kitchen.
Xu Shu walked to the door and looked over there, and seeing that the door was closed, he turned his head and nodded to Ji Chuan.
Ji Chuan got up and walked to the left bedroom connected to the main room.
Xu Shu went to the room on the right.
Because of the cold weather, the windows of these houses were closed, and it was a bit dark inside.However, he didn't dare to turn on the light, so he took out his mobile phone to illuminate, and carefully searched in the room.
Every time he found a place, he paid attention to the position and angle of the things, and put them back after reading them.
His side should be Ma Laoliu's room, which contains all daily necessities, and there is still a half glass of water on the small table beside the kang, with obvious traces of life.
Judging from the furnishings in this room, Ma Laoliu was indeed living alone, and Xu Shu didn't see anything feminine.
The furnishings in the room were not complicated, but rather messy, and it didn't take him long to look at them all.
When he walked out of the room, he saw that Ji Chuan had come over first, sitting by the charcoal basin, with his head down, wondering what to do.
Hearing the sound of the door closing, he looked up.
At this moment, seeing his eyes, Xu Shu couldn't help but stop in mid-air.
It was a very complicated look, so complicated that he couldn't read the emotions in it for a moment.
All he knew was that Ji Chuan had indeed changed.
He suddenly felt very sorry for the hero.
At the beginning, he abandoned the text, and then a casual sentence caused Ji Chuan to have feelings that he shouldn't have had... Now that something went wrong, he changed it back forcibly with another sentence.
From the beginning to the end, he never considered Ji Chuan's thoughts and feelings.
"Come here." Ji Chuan looked at him and said.
Xu Shu took a light breath, walked over and sat down on his left side.
Originally sitting here was to avoid staring at Ji Chuan, but Ji Chuan turned around to face him, frowned and said, "I seem to have something wrong."
Xu Shu's heart skipped a beat, and he forced himself to ask calmly, "What's the problem?"
"I……"
Ji Chuan paused, slowly raised his right hand, stared down at his fingers and said, "Now, I really want to kill you."
Xu Shu: "..."
He stood up and moved his position before he said, "Then you still change places with Yang Xiao and say you want to live with me?"
"Well," Ji Chuan's eyes moved up from his fingers a little bit, and fell on Xu Shu's face, and said word by word: "To kill you."
Xu Shu felt a gust of cool wind blowing from behind, sending chills down his back.
He stood up all of a sudden, and while retreating to the door, he said, "Well, then, I'll find someone to change my place to live in, see you later!"
With that said, he turned around and opened the door and ran out.
"Stop" came from Ji Chuan behind him.
Obviously should continue to run forward, but Xu Shu subconsciously stopped.
...It's really been a little brother for a long time, but he is so obedient.
"Are you really that afraid of me?"
Ji Chuan's voice came from behind, and it should be at the side of the charcoal basin, not approaching him.
Xu Shu's expression moved slightly, and he turned his head to look at him.
Ji Chuan was still sitting there, slightly raised his head to look at Xu Shu, his dark and deep eyes were reflected by the flames with stars shining.
The light in the room was not very good, Xu Shu looked over from this side, and felt that the darkness behind him was like a monster's giant hand, as if it was about to reach out and drag Ji Chuan in.
He looked at himself like this, as if... asking for help.
Somehow, Xu Shu said, "I'm just joking."
Ji Chuan looked at him for a few seconds, his thin lips pursed slightly, and after a long time, he said to him, "Come here."
Xu Shu closed the door and walked back, and sat down beside him.
Then Ji Chuan stretched out his clenched right hand and handed it to him: "Here."
Xu Shu didn't know what it was, so he reached out to pick it up, and felt something cold fall into his palm.
It was only later that he realized that it was a jade pendant that had been turned into two halves.
The brief introduction of the twin jade pendant flashed through his mind again.
Xu Shu was stunned: "What are you doing for me? Isn't this prop very good?"
"It can help you if I lose control."
Ji Chuan turned his head to look at the charcoal fire in front of him, his cheeks were a little red under the light of the fire.
Xu Shu was silent for a moment, then nodded, "Then I'll keep it first, and return it to you if I don't need it."
The two sat silently in front of the charcoal basin for a while, and Ji Chuan suddenly asked in a low voice, "What happened?"
Xu Shu pretended not to hear, took out his phone and turned on Snake.
After hitting the wall three times in a row and dying, Wang Peng pushed open the door and came in with a livid face.
As soon as he came in, he cursed several unbearable swear words in a low voice, and his expression was very ferocious, as if he was venting his anger.
Xu Shu didn't bother him, and asked after he calmed down a bit, "What happened?"
"I was helping Ma Laoliu chop vegetables in the kitchen just now," Wang Peng said. "He took a piece of smoked bacon and cooked it for me before cutting it."
He paused for a long time, then gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't realize it was a fucking piece of human flesh until I cut it with a knife!!!"
Xu Shu was stunned: "What did you say? How did you know?"
"My profession is a doctor." Wang Peng stretched out his hand and wiped his face vigorously: "Although I have little experience, it is not enough to recognize human flesh."
