Alien Hotel

The receptive ability of creatures with small brains is indeed not very good - the nervous squirrel went crazy the moment it saw Yu Sheng and his group. He threw the acorns and started jumping around on the bushes, screaming and making noise. , the palm-sized figure made almost the same noises as Irene, and kept shouting sentences such as "It's weird," "Where the hell did it come from," and "Is this still Little Red Riding Hood?"

In the end, Little Red Riding Hood couldn't bear it anymore. She took a step forward and caught the squirrel that was about to jump out of the twig. She held it in front of her and said fiercely: "Quiet! Otherwise, I will throw you into the thorn bushes!"

The squirrel stared at Little Red Riding Hood with his eyes wide open, then raised his head to look in the direction of the three Yusheng people, then stretched out his neck and tilted his head, and fainted with a "quacking" sound.

Yu Sheng: "..."

Irene was shocked when she saw this scene: "What the hell is this useless thing... Is this scary to death?"

However, as soon as she finished speaking, the squirrel woke up slowly. The latter struggled hard in Little Red Riding Hood's hands. After confirming the situation in front of him, he seemed to have finally calmed down a little, but he still couldn't help but murmured: "Is something big going to happen... Is this still the Black Forest? Why did such a large group of people appear... None of them look like the new Little Red Riding Hood?"

"Um...hello," Huli walked over boldly and greeted the squirrel politely, "My name is Huli."

"This is Irene on my shoulder," Yu Sheng also carried Irene and walked over, grinning at the squirrel with a bright and sunny smile, "We meet again, little squirrel."

"Yes, we meet again. Of course Squirrel remembers you. I don't know how you broke in, 'adult'... You brought in more strange guys. I'm confused, I'm confused," Squirrel held Little Red Riding Hood's hand. I got out and crawled to The latter muttered nervously on his shoulder, "The Black Forest will not be happy. The Black Forest does not like troublemakers... You are disobedient. If you don't obey at first sight, you will be in bad luck. Run away." You have to run quickly..."

"What a coincidence," Yu Sheng heard the squirrel's muttering, but a happy smile appeared on his face, "We are here to make the Black Forest 'unhappy'."

Squirrel looked at Yu Sheng blankly, as if he couldn't understand what he meant.

Yu Sheng didn't explain anything, but slightly suppressed the smile on his face, and then walked towards the faint light in the forest in the distance and said calmly: "Do you know where to find the 'Hunter'?"

The squirrel made a high-pitched and confused voice: "Hunter? Why are you looking for a hunter?"

"I asked him about something," Yu Sheng said casually, and then immediately added, "Don't ask anything else, just tell me where to find him."

"It's not safe. It's not safe for you to go to the hunter like this..." The squirrel looked very nervous. "The hunter has a gun in his hand and will shoot anything that looks like a wolf. Little Red Riding Hood already looks like a wolf... No If you are careful, you will be regarded as prey, especially tonight, tonight..."

Yu Sheng's footsteps slowed down for a few beats, and his eyes changed slightly: "Tonight? What happened tonight?"

The squirrel nervously grabbed the hood of Little Red Riding Hood's coat. It seemed hesitant, but under Yu Sheng's eyes, it finally shrank its neck in fear: "Since yesterday, the Black Forest has been uneasy. , there are wolves going crazy, some areas are disappearing, and there is a big explosion... The situation may be more serious tonight... The hunter will also become unstable when the black forest is unstable. He wanders around, angry, and very Dangerous, sometimes more dangerous than wolves..."

Yu Sheng remained silent for a while.

Eileen reached out and poked the back of his head: "Why do I think this matter has something to do with you?"

Yu Sheng frowned and said with a straight face: "...This is all part of the plan."

"What are you talking about?" Squirrel raised his upper body and looked at Yu Sheng and Irene with confusion.

"It's nothing," Yu Sheng shook his head with a sullen face, and then quickly diverted the other party's attention, "Don't worry about anything else, just take me to find the 'Hunter'. Whether we can deal with it or not is my business - At worst, you can just run away, just like last time."

"You can't listen to advice!" The squirrel waved its paws anxiously, but soon lowered its tail and got half of its body into Little Red Riding Hood's hood. "Okay, okay, you asked for it... …Go find the hunter. Wherever there is Grandma Wolf, there is a hunter. No matter where he has wandered before, as long as Grandma Wolf appears, he will definitely come.”

"Okay, this piece of information is enough. It's pretty much what I expected."

Yu Sheng nodded and continued walking towards the light in the distance.

Eileen was a little confused - she was not familiar with the rules in the black forest. At this time, she couldn't help but asked curiously: "Do you know where to find the 'Grandma Wolf'?"

"Cottage," she was answered by Little Red Riding Hood who was walking aside. "There will be paths illuminated by street lights in the black forest. You can usually find cabins at the end of the trails. There are usually two situations in the cabins - one is safety. There is another empty room with 'Grandma Wolf' hidden in it. By the way, under normal circumstances I should avoid the cabin with 'Grandma Wolf' in it."

Irene listened carefully to Little Red Riding Hood's story, and suddenly noticed a word used by the other party: "'Usually' there are two situations? What about 'unusual' times?"

"...There is another situation. There is no Grandma Wolf in the hut, but when you enter the hut to hide, Grandma Wolf will knock on the door." Little Red Riding Hood paused for a moment, her tone was still calm, but there was a faint trace of emotion in her eyes. Fear, "This situation is the most dangerous. There is only a moment to escape. I have been caught several times... when Grandma Wolf knocked on the door."

She stopped here and exhaled softly after a moment: "And the 'fourth situation' that Yu Sheng and I encountered recently: a house not connected to any trails, standing alone deep in the forest with no The lighted hut, that hut was filled with red cloaks.”

Erin reacted immediately: "Ah, I know this, it's the one you met last time."

Yu Sheng noticed that the squirrel hiding in the hood of Little Red Riding Hood immediately shrank in when he heard the words "hut without lights" and "hanging red cloak". After a while, when he poked his head out, his dark eyes His little eyes were still full of fear.

He walked over and looked directly into the squirrel's eyes: "Why are you so afraid of that little hut without lights?"

The squirrel's body trembled visibly, and it screamed for mercy: "I don't know! The squirrel doesn't know anything!"

Yu Sheng frowned tightly.

"Don't force it," Little Red Riding Hood sighed, interrupting Yu Sheng's next question, "If it reacts like this, it will definitely not be able to ask anything - when the pressure reaches a certain level, it will faint again. past."

"Yes, yes," the squirrel shouted immediately, "Little Red Riding Hood and the squirrel are friends! Best friends!"

"Yes, and he is not a very reliable friend." Yu Sheng muttered with a frown, but did not press for anything more. He just continued to walk forward, paying attention to the squirrel's every move.

The path appeared in the group's field of vision.

The winding forest path is illuminated by fantasy-colored street lights. The path leads deep into the forest, and the scene at the end is shrouded in darkness. The limited illumination range of the street lights outlines a clear "border" on both sides of the path. "The malice of the black forest temporarily retreats wherever the light reaches, and the path is filled with a peaceful atmosphere.

The moment I set foot on the trail, the sense of malice and surveillance that had always been with me temporarily retreated, and even the howling of wolves that came from time to time around me seemed to suddenly fade away.

"Wow...it's really interesting." Eileen immediately noticed the change in the "aura" around her. She opened her eyes wide and looked at the "light balls" floating in the air in surprise, "But this is not like an ordinary thing." A 'specific safe zone' in a foreign land... The stability of this trail seems to be maintained by these lights?"

"Is there any difference?" Yu Sheng didn't react immediately, "Aren't they all safe areas?"

"It's different." Erin shook her head. "The 'Specific Safe Zone' in ordinary foreign lands refers to an area itself that is stable. Even if this area moves, even if it disappears over time, as long as it is within the specified Within the time and specified range, the safe zone will not be invaded by dangerous entities such as entities. Dangerous things are affected, and it is more like a temporary safety barrier formed by 'wonders'. With these lights, the trail is safe, but without the lights, it should be unsafe here again - in other words, here It’s not the trail that’s safe, it’s the streetlights, this is not a safe zone, it’s a safe thing.”

Yu Sheng listened carefully and followed the little doll's thoughts without much effort.

He found that he still had to bring this doll with him when exploring foreign lands - although she was unreliable in many cases, in the field of occultism, her observational perspective and experience and intuition that sometimes worked well and sometimes failed were really possible. Make a difference.

But at this moment, his thoughts were suddenly interrupted by a voice coming from outside the path.

"Bang!"

It was a gunshot.

Dull, abrupt, the sound of a shotgun being fired.

Several people who were walking on the path suddenly stopped and looked at each other in shock at the sound of gunshots.

The squirrel came out of Little Red Riding Hood's hood and rubbed its paws nervously: "The hunter has shot...The hunter has shot..."

"My dear, the sound is coming from this direction," Hu Li tugged on Yu Sheng's sleeves and raised her hand to point in a direction outside the path. Her ears trembled sensitively in the air and she adjusted her ears slightly. The angle of the pinna is "a hundred or two hundred meters away."

As soon as Hu Li finished speaking, another gunshot was heard.

"Bang!"

Still in the same direction, a second gunshot was heard.
