The dinner in the village is also very simple, and they are the most common home-cooked dishes.
A piece of eggplant, a piece of stuffed tofu, and a piece of stir-fried potato shreds.
It should have been a very common dish, but I don't know if it's because of the ingredients or the seasoning. When it was served on the table, it looked so weird.
I can't say what is wrong, but I always feel that this dish should not be like this.
The old man also sprinkled a handful of something black and not slippery like damp soil into the pot when he was cooking. But he deliberately blocked his sight in the direction of Liang Ye with his body, as if he wanted to prevent the guests from seeing it.
Three dishes were served, only one pair of bowls and one serving of rice. The old couple stood beside them gloomily, not intending to join in.
Liang Ye didn't ask any more questions, picked up the bowl, put the rice on it, and cleaned up the three dishes like wind and clouds. At the end, he burped and said that it would be better if he gave more salt, but thank you for the hospitality. .
During this period, the eyes of the two old people changed from being gloomy at the beginning to gradually showing more surprise, and finally turned to looking at each other when they put down the bowl after eating.
That posture was like encrypting a conversation with his eyes. The old lady's eyes are saying, are you sure you put the things in? The old man gave back a look, and said of course he let it go, even an elephant should fall down, who knows how this guy can still be alive and kicking.
"By the way, are you just the two of you here, old man? Don't you have any children?" Liang Ye, who was full of wine and food, started chatting.
The eyelids of the two old men jumped in unison.
At this point, they have all realized that this person has a lot of background today. After a moment of silence, the old man spoke first.
"I once had a son." He said in a hoarse and weird voice. "He passed the exam, went to university, studied archeology, and traveled around all day. From time to time, he would send back some weird things, saying they belonged to him. New discovery.
until one day......"
The old man paused, his eyes flickered, and he looked somewhere in the shadows of the room.
"...they said it was a landslide. My son, brave lad...he rescued his colleagues, but he couldn't get out."
"Ah, that's right." Liang Ye showed an apologetic expression, but for some reason, his expression seemed somewhat insincere, "I'm sorry to remind you..."
"No, it doesn't matter anymore. Because he'll be back soon."
The old man raised an arm dully and pointed to a dark part of the room. Following the direction of his fingers, Liang Ye saw a bronze mirror hanging above the cabinet with exquisite patterns engraved on it.
"That's what he brought back. He said it was older than we imagined. It was built by someone who had passed away long ago. It contained the wish of a deceased person in ancient times. It symbolized reunion."
"That's true." The old lady also spoke, her voice was sharp and unpleasant, "The old man and I both dreamed about it, just after the landslide. The child entrusted us with a dream, saying that we can still be reunited, and this mirror can do it.
But it's been too long in the ground, it's too weak, it needs food..."
"I see."
Liang Ye nodded, indicating that he probably understood.
"So that's why passers-by are always missing here?"
At this time, the villagers gathered outside the door had already walked in. Their eyes are dull and dull, but their faces are so gloomy that they can almost drip water.
The small room was quickly filled to the brim. The two old men retreated to the side without a word, and those weird villagers quickly filled in.
"You look unusual." The old man said in a hoarse voice, "but no one can stop our family reunion, even if anyone comes."
While talking, the villagers also approached step by step, each of them looked like puppets manipulated by an invisible puppeteer.
At this moment, an extremely unpleasant cell phone ringtone unfortunately rang.
"Gourd baby ~ gourd baby ~ a flower on a vine ~ not afraid of wind and rain ~ la la la la ~"
All the gloomy villagers were stunned for a moment.
"Ah, sorry it's my call."
Liang Ye made a pause gesture, took out the phone from behind, and smiled apologetically.
"Wait a minute, I have to take this...Hello? Ah yes, it's me."
The villagers stopped and looked at each other, as if making eye contact: What should I do? Do you still mess with him?
Then I don't know how to encrypt the voice call in the team. In short, they finally came to the conclusion that it seems to be waiting first.
Pretty polite.
"I'm working here, hurry up..."
While talking, Liang Ye made an embarrassing gesture to them, indicating that it would be over soon.
Liang Ye hung up the phone and put away his cell phone, then smiled sheepishly.
"I'm sorry, work has been one after another, and overtime is endless...By the way, where were we just now?"
The villagers continued to look at each other.
After a few seconds.
Peng.
The wall was pierced by a huge force, and the bricks and stones fell to the ground with a crash. A young boy in the village was blasted through the wall and flew out. After rolling on the ground several times, he fell silent.
Immediately afterwards, the window was shattered with a bang, and two shadows were blown out of it. Then in the direction of the gate, several villagers fell and rolled on the path outside the gate.
"Infected...infected...are infected."
While talking, Liang Ye casually removed a young man's shoulder, and then blasted the young man into the air with a shoulder bump, smashing down the cabinet against the wall.
"They're all infected? It's good, it saves you trouble..."
He dodged the kitchen knife attacking behind him, grabbed the opponent in front of him and broke his neck.
In a short while, the house was full of fallen villagers lying all over the house.
Liang Ye clapped his hands, and walked towards the bronze mirror among the crowd.
"It should be the source of infection?"
But the moment he reached out to touch the mirror, an astonishing force burst out from the mirror. Liang Ye was immediately bounced backwards, and also flew out of the house. He rolled backwards on the spot, got up in a half-squat, squinted his eyes and looked forward.
The majestic momentum burst out from the mirror, and the roof was pierced with a huge gap. A mass of gel-like ink-black things gathered together, gradually gaining substance.
A huge twisted monster, its body is like a thing made up of countless vine-like things intertwined. It didn't have the physiological structure of an ordinary animal, its entire body twisted together, and its pitch-black shell was covered with wrinkles. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com
"Has it become like this after swallowing a lot of spirit?"
Liang Ye stood up and twisted his lower neck joints.
The monster's whole body twisted, as if its whole body had turned into a huge slap that came down towards Liang Ye, like the sky falling apart.
Liang Ye raised his head, looked at it expressionlessly, and lightly clenched his fists.
boom!
!
lightning.
Like the sword of God, it divides the world into two halves. Thunder billowed, like a blue waterfall falling, bursting into blue waves on the ground.
…
"Yes, it's me, Liang Ye."
Liang Ye put on his backpack again, packed his things and prepared to leave.
The roof has been pierced, and villagers are lying everywhere inside and out. A huge pit was left on the open space outside the door, like a cake that had been dug out by someone. The pit was scorched black, and black smoke was slowly rising.
"Yes, it's over. Ha, don't worry, of course there is no residue, don't you worry about my work?"
While talking on the phone, he was about to walk out of the house.
"Is it an urgent mission? Okay, tell the plane to go to the coordinates I sent, I'll be right there...huh?"
He felt his ankle being pulled.
It's the old man who lives in this room.
The old man and the old woman crawled on the ground and grabbed his trouser legs with trembling hands.
"Please... kill us too..."
Liang Ye glanced at the two old men and fell silent for a while.
"Thanks for the hospitality, dinner was delicious."
He smiled.
"But I'm sorry, you are not infected. I only kill infected people."
He turned around and walked away without looking back.
