Mysterious World, I Have Special Understanding

Chapter 37 Red Embroidered Shoes

The village is located at the foot of the hill, not very big, and you can see the whole picture from the slope.

Under the dark 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 kobresias half a person's height, which sway from side to side when the wind blows, looking like ghosts.

These days, Ji Que took too many similar paths.

He has always been very interested in the long dirty thing he met in the deserted temple that night, but unfortunately he couldn't keep the other party to study.

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

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 that dirty thing with python-like arms.

Curiosity and fear, 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 almost here.

Outside the village, there are a few fruit trees of normal growth, with some fruits hanging on them, Ji Que dare not try it lightly.

Along the way, it's not that he hasn't eaten wild fruits, but almost every bite has worms, can you believe it?

It can only be said that luck is really "good".

It can be seen that this village is relatively poor, even though it is dark, there are still few people holding lamps.

Just as Ji Que walked to the entrance of the village, he suddenly found that there was a dead person in the village.

The distance from the entrance of the village to the big tree in the middle of the village was only two to three hundred steps. During this period, there were four families with white banners hanging on the doorsteps, and they also looked ghostly in the dim environment.

At this time, everything is quiet, every house is dark, not even a dog barks.

The whole village looks like a huge tomb.

Ji Que carried the books on his back, looked at the ground full of mud holes, and wanted to find someone to stay overnight, 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 a lamp?

Lighting a lamp means that someone is awake.

Ji Que lifted his footsteps and walked towards the burning lamp.

He soon discovered that although the house of this family was old, it was well-repaired. It should be a big family here.

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

After a while, a woman's voice came from inside the door—"Who is it?".

Ji Que immediately said: "I'm sorry, I'm a passing scholar who got lost in the mountains and wants to spend the night in your place."

"Really serious scholar?"

"It must be serious." Ji Que replied seriously.

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

After a while, there was a crack in the wooden door, and the woman inside looked carefully for a while, probably after confirming that he looked handsome and upright, and then opened the door with a creak.

It was a woman of about thirty years old.

The woman took a careful look at Ji Que, and said: "Young Master, I really forgive you, we seldom come to outsiders in our Lin Family Village, and it's late at night, so we have to be more cautious."

"I'm bothering you." Ji Que said gratefully.

After a few brief exchanges, Ji Que realized that he really knew how to find a place.

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

During this period, the woman who called herself "Sister Lin" would look into 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 Village Chief Lin's house, but it is actually half a firewood room. Apart from a bed, there is also a lot of firewood piled up in the room.

But in this poor place, it would be nice to have a house sheltered from the wind. There is a stove and an iron pot under the eaves outside, where you can cook and eat, which is a plus in this cold weather.

Ji Que quickly lit the fire and cooked the bacon.

The bacon is salted and air-dried, which can be stored for a long time without deterioration. It can be used for making soup or boiled for eating. It is very suitable for taking out.

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

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

Ji Que ate and drank a pot of hot seaweed broth alone. In this cold weather, he felt his body was warm and very useful.

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

Don't eat and feel flustered.

In addition, he has walked a lot today, and he is already hungry psychologically, so this simple bowl of salty broth feels extremely delicious.

On the way to drink the soup, the lights of the village chief's house were already extinguished.

In this world, most people work according to the sunrise and rest after sunset, and rarely stay up late.

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

He tidied up and lay down on the wooden bed.

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

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

As soon as I lay down, the previous discomfort disappeared.

Every time he lies on the recliner in the shape of Tang clothes, Ji Que can't help but think of this friend.

Think of him snickering, lazy, the way he fell asleep after drinking.

Thinking about it, Ji Que laughed, and when he smiled, he became vigilant.

I'm not right!

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

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

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

Third Sister Lin's mother had a high prestige in the village despite being a girl.

Since his wife passed away, she has taken over his wife's position as the village head, and this has lasted 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, she looked a little plump, especially at the chin, where layers of fat piled up, forming many fat folds, which looked a little disgusting.

Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the shoes on her feet.

Such a plainly dressed old woman was wearing a pair of blood-colored embroidered shoes on her feet.

The embroidered shoes are very new, as if they will never be stained with dust, so they are particularly eye-catching.

Such a pair of beautiful shoes is extremely terrifying in the eyes of Third Sister Lin.

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

The change wasn't just about the growing grease on her chin, it was about how she looked at night.

That kind of appearance wearing embroidered shoes and terribly empty eyes is not like a human being.

Sanjie Lin covered her mouth and nestled under the quilt, tears streaming down her face.

She knew that her mother was ill, but she had no idea when the illness would be cured.

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

Because in recent times, mother has become more and more strange.

At this time, Village Chief Lin went to the kitchen wearing brightly colored embroidered shoes.

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

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

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

He seemed to be dreaming about Tang Yi.

The other party seems to have fried beef tenderloin and fried rice with eggs.

It smells so good!
