My Weird Life

  1297, "Inner World" (1) (22)

The narratives of the elders in the surrounding villages are not at all different from what Yujiro said, and are even exactly the same.

Su Wu felt strange because of such an "exactly the same" statement.

 He ​​used his soul to reflect everyone's sexual intentions, but he did not find anything unusual. The memories retained in the old people's thoughts were exactly the same as their statements.

Those past memories are still clearly visible in their respective minds.

Since no clues could be found from these people, Su Wu let them go their separate ways.

 It is almost dusk now.

The sky became dark again, and a rain was brewing in the sky.

Su Wu watched many old people supporting each other and leaving Haijin Village. He calmly spoke to Tao Zu and Hong Renkun beside him: "Even if the things that happened in the past so many years are deeply remembered, they should not be forgotten. I remember every detail very clearly...

 But the memories that remain in these people's minds are exactly the same as their respective narratives. Things that happened more than ten years ago are vividly reflected in their minds...

 Why is this? "

“When the fake is true, the truth is also false, and when the truth is false, the false is also true.” Hong Renkun curled his lips and smiled, “Some things are too true, but they are false, and things that are too outrageous are very likely to be true.”

"I haven't found any abnormal clues from the memories in their minds." Su Wu frowned slightly, "They are just ordinary old people. Could it be that they have the ability to tamper with their own memories?"

"It's not difficult to tamper with memory." Tao Zu continued, "You only need to remind yourself of something day after day, year after year, and think about that thing repeatedly. That thing has never happened in reality. Things will really stay in your memory and never leave."

Su Wu nodded when he heard this.

Outside the door, not long after many old people left, lines of rain began to fall from the sky.

The patter of rain suddenly became dense after a gust of wind. The heavy rain fell to the ground and accumulated in the pits. Muddy water soon accumulated in the mud pits on the ground.

As the mist filled the air, the smell of rotten sea fish became stronger and stronger.

The shadowy houses around, the hills and wild trees in the distance were all twisted in the mist of water vapor, as if they had turned into ghosts.

Su Wu watched the candles light up in the wooden house opposite where Mrs. Tsuichiro lived. Yujiro walked out of the wooden house, bowed to Su Wu in front of the door, and then hurriedly returned to the wooden house opposite. Su Wu also turned around and returned to the house.

 Inside the house, an oil lamp has been lit.

Tao Zu took out a deck of playing cards and was having a great time playing cards with Hong Renkun and Jiang Yingying around the table.

Emergency Can nested in the corner of the grass nest Jiang Yingying specially made for it, with its head drooped and drowsy.

It is raining heavily outside, but inside there is a peaceful and warm scene.

The rotten smell wandering outside cannot flow into the house. Instead, this simple wooden house is filled with a faint fragrance.

Su Wu looked at a bouquet of wild flowers in a clay pot on the table and knew where the fragrance in the room came from.

His eyes moved away from the bunch of wild flowers and met Jiang Yingying's shining eyes.

Yingying pursed her lips and smiled softly. She handed him a stack of playing cards and whispered, "Do you want to come and play for a while?"

The night is so boring, it’s good to play for a while to kill the time. "

"Eh!

 We won’t fight him.

 No fun things are fun when it comes to him! "As soon as Jiang Yingying finished speaking, Hong Renkun first pushed aside a few pieces of paper stuck to his head and protested loudly.

Tao Zu also withdrew the playing cards in his hand to express his unwillingness to play with Su Wu.

The pony-tailed girl was inevitably a little embarrassed and at a loss when she saw this situation.

Su Wu smiled and shook his head, saying, "Just have fun.

It also rained heavily last night. In this heavy rain, large-scale deaths occurred in the surrounding villages.

 It will also rain heavily tonight, and the severe treacherous attack is likely to happen again.

 I need to take care of the surrounding villages that still have surviving common people, so that they will not be attacked by the sneaky again and die.

You should also be careful. "

"Do you need to say this?" Hong Renkun looked at the cards in his hand, pulled out two of them, and punched them out, "Two against three!"

"Right eight!" Tao Zu quickly followed. After he played two cards, he quickly gathered the cards in his palm. A golden cross flashed in Hong Renkun's eyes, intending to spy on Tao Zu's hand, but he suddenly saw the palm of Tao Zu's hand. On the hand card inside, there is a small charm -

 “Old thing!”

Hong Renkun’s mouth twitched and he cursed, and the golden light in his eyes disappeared instantly.

Tao Zu was so proud that he pursed his lips to Jiang Yingying, indicating that it was her turn to play her cards. Then he raised his head and glanced at the silent appraisal in the corner, which was like a wood carving and clay sculpture: "It's just like what the monk said - the candlelight witch maid 'I am much more interested in you than in us bad old men.

She has probably set her sights on you, and at least wants to lure you into the world she transformed into after her death.

 I think you should be more careful yourself.

If you seize the opportunity and follow her to the other world - you don't need to worry about it here. I have incarnated here and won't let anyone die or get hurt because of sneaking here! ” ˆ ˆ “You don’t do anything yourself, so you want me to do the work for you? "Hong Renkun said angrily.

At this time, Jiang Yingying came out with a one-two punch. She lowered her head and whispered: "Please help Su Wu..."

In the corner, Jianzhen clasped his hands together and said in a low voice: "To untie the bell, you must tie the bell. Everything here started because of the 'candle light', and will also end because of the 'candle light'..."

 The rain outside is getting heavier and heavier.

 The lights in the room flickered slightly.

At this moment, Su Wu suddenly turned around and walked towards the door.

Tao Zu, Hong Renkun, and Jian Zhen, who were playing cards around the table, all stood up at the same time and followed them out of the door.

 Hurrah!

 Under heavy rain.

In the opposite fence wall, two figures argued and argued for a moment. A hunched figure suddenly knocked away the taller figure, knocked away the fence wall, and ran up the slope.

Su Wu looked at Yujiro who was lying in the fence, and then chased after the hunched figure running up the **** behind the house.

That person is naturally Yujiro’s mother and Tsuichiro’s wife.

Amidst the howling wind and rain, Su Wu followed Mrs. Tsuichiro, listening to her keep chanting: "Water, water, water..."

He intuitively felt that the moment was the opportunity to solve the mystery.

“Mrs. Tsuichiro” suddenly fled the village, and the shrine maiden Tsuzuki handed him the “invitation letter to die on Dongliu Island”—

The rickety woman's pace became faster and faster, her soles stepped on the mud, bringing up a cloud of turbid water!

She shouted frantically: "Fish soup! Fish soup! Fish soup!"

In such a violent storm, even a young man could not keep up with Mrs. Tsuichiro's speed. Under Su Wu's observation, Mrs. Tsuichiro, who was already in her twilight years, now had only the remaining longevity of her life. Burning fiercely!

 Such a lifespan of such a vigorous burning allowed her to burst out with a power that was unique in her life in a short period of time!

 She climbed up the **** and approached a dry well on the slope.

Behind the slope, in the dripping rain, it seemed like a cold and faint moon was hanging.

The moon swayed in the waterline, suddenly turning from light silvery gray to blood red!

 The color of blood enveloped Mrs. Tsuichiro.

Mrs. Tsuichiro stood on the edge of the well and stared at the dark dry well, as if she saw something terrifying in the well!

She instinctively wanted to retreat, but there seemed to be a force pushing her desperately, causing her face to struggle to stick to the mouth of the well: "Xiangzi!"

"my child!"

Mrs. Tsuichiro screamed suddenly and plunged into the dry well!

Su Wu's speed was no slower than hers. He jumped into the dry well. At the top of the well mouth, red light spread like blood.

The spread of red light was filled with a hint of cold and eerie charm.

But at the bottom of the dry well, against the red light, there seemed to be ripples of water.

Amid the crisp sound of water, there was interspersed with the vague cry of a baby.

 Plop!

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　uluulu—

Su Wu suddenly fell into the charisma, which was as cold and terrifying as a gangrene attached to the bone, and as cold as cold well water. In such a dense charisma, he heard the baby's cry getting closer and closer - so he He opened his arms vigorously and rushed towards the source of the baby's cry -

 Swim until the body emerges from the water!

 Plop!

He heard another sound like something heavy falling into the water. The silver moonlight pouring down from the mouth of the well illuminated the wooden barrel that fell next to Su Wu. The rope on the barrel was connected to the mouth of the well.

The wooden barrel filled a bucket of water and was lifted upwards with the sound of the rolling rollers at the mouth of the well.

Su Wu saw this and looked at the well water around him.

The water in this well is not as cold as before, it is all condensed by the cold and eerie charm.

This well water seems to be just well water.

He tried to dive into the water again, and soon he swam to the bottom of the well. There seemed to be no 'passage' to another world under the well. Su Wu was no longer obsessed with this. He leaned against the wall of the well and slowly climbed up to the wellhead. He climbed out from the earthen well railing and appeared on a grassless slope.

 Behind the earth slope, the bright moon is full.

There is no trace of rain in the world here, only the smell like rotting sea fish fills the air more intensely.

Su Wu looked down the slope, but he didn't see the fence or thatched house of Tsuichiro's house, or even the house opposite where Su Wu and his party lived temporarily.

—He already understood in his heart that he followed Mrs. Tsuichiro and indeed came to ‘another world’.

However, after Mrs. Tsuichiro jumped into the dry well, where did she go? Su Wu's mind was spinning, and he casually calculated and traced the cause and effect of Mrs. Tsuichiro, but could not find any trace of her. He was not in a hurry, walked down the slope, followed the path down the slope, and gathered at a wooden house. Go to that area.
