Mysterious world, I have special understanding

Chapter 37 Red Embroidered Shoes

The village is located at the foot of the hill, it is not big, and the whole view can be seen from the slope.

Under the gloomy sky, Ji Que walked down the hillside. Along the way, there was only the sound of footsteps stepping on the ground, which was extremely deserted.

On both sides of the road are half-person-high grass, which swayed left and right when the wind blew, looking like a ghost.

These days, Ji Que has taken too many similar paths.

He has always been very interested in the long and dirty thing he encountered in the barren temple that night, but unfortunately he couldn't leave the other party to study.

He really didn't think about chasing and killing each other.

People are naturally afraid of the unknown, and Ji Que is no exception.

The difference between him and ordinary people is that he has suffered too much bad luck, and his nerves are much bigger than ordinary people.

But even so, he was still a little afraid of the dirty thing with his arms like a python.

Curious and fearful, this is the same mentality as when I was very scared when I was a child, but couldn't help but want to watch ghost movies.

I saw that under the dim sky, the village was approaching.

Outside the village, there are several fruit trees that are growing normally, with some fruits hanging on them, Ji Que dare not try it easily.

On the way, he has not eaten wild fruit, but almost every bite has worms, can you believe it?

All I can say is "good luck".

It can be seen that this village is relatively poor, and even if it is already dark, there are still no people holding the lights.

Just as Ji Que walked to the entrance of the village, he found dead people in the village.

From the entrance of the village to the big tree in the middle of the village, it was only two or three hundred steps away. During this period, there were four households with white banners hanging at the door, and they looked ghostly in the dim environment.

At this time, everything was quiet, every house was pitch black, and there was no dog barking.

The whole village looks like a huge tomb.

Ji Que was carrying a book on his back, looking at the ground full of mud pits, and wanted to find someone to sleep with, but he really didn't know where to start.

The village doesn't look very hospitable.

At this time, a little fire lit up in the village.

Someone light up?

A light on means someone is not asleep.

Ji Que raised his footsteps and walked towards the lamp.

He soon discovered that although this family's house was old, it was well-maintained. It should be a big family here.

Ji Que thought about it, but still knocked on the old wooden door.

After a while, a female voice came from the door - "Who is it?".

Ji Que said immediately: "Sorry, I am a passing scholar. I got lost in the mountains and want to stay overnight in your place."

"Really a serious scholar?"

"Definitely serious." Ji Que replied seriously.

For some reason, he always felt that the women in the room seemed very nervous.

After a while, there was a crack in the wooden door, and the woman inside looked at him carefully for a while. It should have been confirmed that he looked handsome and serious before opening the door with a creak.

This is a woman about 30 years old.

The woman took a careful look at Ji Que and said, "My son, I'm really sorry, we rarely come to outsiders from Linjia Village, and it's a big night, so I have to be more cautious."

"I'm harassing me." Ji Que said gratefully.

After a few brief exchanges, Ji Que knew that he would really find a place.

This turned out to be the village chief's house, no wonder it looks richer.

During this period, the woman who called herself "Lin Sanjie" would look at the back room from time to time, her eyes were worried, and she didn't know why.

After that, the woman lent Ji Que an empty room and closed the door.

This tile-roofed house is said to be the guest room of the village chief's house, but it is actually half a firewood house. In addition to a bed, there are a lot of firewood piled in the house.

However, it would be nice to have a house to shelter from the wind in this poor place. There is also a stove and an iron pot under the eaves outside, which can be cooked and eaten, which is very good in this cold weather.

Ji Que quickly lit the fire and cooked the bacon.

The bacon is air-dried with salt and can be stored for a long time without deterioration. It can be boiled and eaten, which is very suitable for carrying out.

As the water in the pot boiled, a burst of meaty aroma wafted out.

Ji Que tore open the bacon, put some dried seaweed in the pot, and a pot of seaweed broth was formed.

Ji Que was eating and drinking a pot of hot seaweed broth by himself. In this cold weather, he only felt his body was warm and very useful.

Now that his inner qi is more and more condensed, it is reasonable to say that it is not a big problem to not eat for ten days, but this person is just greedy.

Do not eat panic.

In addition, he has walked a lot today, and he has long been hungry on a psychological level, so this simple bowl of salted meat soup just tastes delicious.

On the way to drinking soup, the lights of the village chief's house were already turned off.

In this world, most people follow the routine of working at sunrise and resting at sunset, and rarely stay up late.

The so-called "full and warm thinking", after drinking two bowls of soup and eating a few pieces of meat, Ji Que began to think about sleeping.

He packed up and lay down on the wooden bed.

Lying on this hard wooden bed like this, he couldn't help but miss Li Sankai's coffin.

Ji Que couldn't sleep, so he simply took out Tang Yi's reclining chair and lay down.

When I lay down, all the discomfort I had before disappeared.

Every time he lay on the reclining chair in the shape of Tang Yi, Ji Que couldn't help but think of this friend.

Think of him giggling, lazy, and falling asleep after drinking.

After thinking about it, Ji Que smiled, and he became vigilant when he smiled.

I'm not right!

Ji Que lay down for a while, and soon his eyelids began to fight.

Thinking that he was unlucky, he endured the sleepiness and closed the door of the house, then lay down on the chair and fell asleep.

The night was getting deeper, and at this time, Lin Sanjie, who had already put out the oil lamp, did not fall asleep because her mother got up.

Lin Sanjie's mother, despite being a girl, has a high prestige in the village.

Since her wife's death, she has taken over the position of her husband's village chief for more than ten years.

At this time, Village Chief Lin got up from the bed and came to the hall.

Under the pale moonlight, her whole body looked a little plump, especially on the chin.

Of course, the most striking thing is the shoes on her feet.

Such a simple-looking old woman wears a pair of bright embroidered shoes on her feet.

The embroidered shoes are very new, as if they will never get dusty, so they are particularly eye-catching.

Such a pair of beautiful shoes was extremely terrifying in Lin Sanjie's eyes.

Yes, since the mother picked up the shoes, the temperament has begun to undergo a very strange change.

The change was not only in the growing oil on her chin, but in her demeanor at night.

The kind that wears embroidered shoes and looks terrifyingly empty, and doesn't look like a human being.

Lin Sanjie covered her mouth and nestled in the quilt, tears streaming down her cheeks.

She knew that her mother was sick, but she had no idea when the disease would heal.

She wanted to throw away her mother's shoes, but she didn't dare.

Because recently, my mother has become more and more unfamiliar.

At this time, Village Chief Lin wore brightly embroidered shoes and went to the kitchen.

There is a kitchen knife in the kitchen, very sharp.

Lin Sanjie clearly hid the knife in a very secret place, but her mother still found it.

At this time, Ji Que was lying on the reclining chair and snoring, sleeping soundly.

He seems to have dreamed of Tang Yi.

The other party seems to have fried beef tenderloin and egg fried rice again.
Really fragrant!
