Strange Tales of the Ghosts - Chapter 428
[Chapter 428 Mask Country (VII)]
On the desolate hillside, a few people rested for the night. After dawn, Luo Yan discovered that this place was so beautiful, with patches of reeds, clear green lake water, and unknown yellow fields near the hillside. Flowers, the morning air is slightly fragrant, making people feel comfortable when they smell it.
“It’s so beautiful.” Luo Yan closed her eyes and opened her arms.
Li Wenyu heard Luo Yan’s self-talk, woke up from the dream, wiped the saliva from his mouth, and rubbed his eyes: “It’s dawn?”
“Well, look.” Luo Yan pointed to a distant place The room, said softly: “It seems that someone lives there.”
“Damn, why didn’t you find out last night? It’s freezing me.” Li Wenyu slept coldly, especially when it was foggy in the morning, he touched Clothes, as if they were taken out of the washing machine.
Luo Yan smiled, looked at Li Wenyu and asked, “Where are Xuehu and Xiaoying? Why haven’t we seen anyone all night?”
“Maybe they fell asleep under the hillside, I’ll go down and call them.” Li Wenyu stood up and stretched out. , walked slowly down the hillside, and after walking a few steps, he saw Wangchuan walking up from the hillside. “Wang Chuan? Where did you go so early?”
“I’ll just walk around.” Wang Chuan looked up at Li Wenyu and replied.
Li Wenyu stood on the spot with his hips on his arms, and asked loudly, “Then have you seen the little beauty and the big beauty?”
“Xuehu and Xiaoying?”
“I didn’t see them last night, didn’t they fall asleep under the hillside ?” Right?”
“They came up before me last night.” Wang Chuan replied coldly.
At this time, Xuehu and Xiaoying who were hiding in the dark and just woke up, after hearing the conversation between Wang Chuan and Li Wenyu, they appeared in human form and patted Li Wenyu on the shoulder, Li Wenyu was startled, and looked back to see that it was Xuehu When talking to Xiao Ying, he complained, “Early in the morning, can you guys not hide and be scary?”
“Do you also know it’s early in the morning? It was noisy early in the morning, and it woke people up.” Xiao Ying was still rubbing her eyes. Last night, she eavesdropped and watched for a long time. Luo Yan and the others fell asleep. Just fell asleep, but didn’t wake up.
Xuehu smiled, walked towards Luo Yan, and asked softly, “Are you hungry?”
“Well, very hungry.” Luo Yan turned around and nodded sharply, she had been hungry since last night.
Xuehu listened, turned a half-red apple from his hand, and handed it to Luo Yan, Luo Yan knew that the things in the spell were not real, so she looked at Xuehu in frustration: “Although I am very hungry, I don’t do this kind of painting to satisfy my hunger.”
“It’s not contrived, I picked it last night.” Xuehu replied with a smile.
Xiaoying looked at the apple and was a little curious: “Sister Xuehu, where did you pick it? Why don’t I know?” Xiaoying followed Xuehu closely yesterday, never leaving, she didn’t even see the apple, so Xuehu said She picked apples, and the little parrot was a little surprised.
Xuehu smiled and pointed to the place where Xiao Ying and herself hid last night and replied, “Isn’t this?”
Xiao Ying looked in the direction of Xuehu’s finger, and sure enough, the place where they were hiding was actually an apple tree. There was only this apple tree on this bare hillside. If it wasn’t for the darkness, Xiao Ying believed that she would not have missed it. She touched her head and smiled embarrassedly, “I didn’t find it.”
“It’s strange . .” Li Wenyu took two steps to the apple tree, and walked around the apple tree again, and found no other apples on the apple tree, so he looked at Xuehu with resentment. “Beautiful lady, you have eaten all the other apple trees?”
“No, I only picked one yesterday.” Xuehu shook his head. The reason why he picked that apple yesterday was because it happened to hit her on the head. As for the fact that there are no other apples, she hadn’t found it yet. After listening to Li Wenyu’s words, she searched carefully and found no other apples.
Luo Yan believed what Xuehu said, because Xuehu would take care of Wangchuan even if he didn’t care about himself. How could he eat all the apples and not leave them to everyone? It seemed that she felt that such an apple tree was a bit weird. , When you smell apples with your nose, you think it is the aroma of apples. Wang Chuan came up at this time, looked at the apple in Luo Yan’s hand, and said responsibly, “It’s not poisonous.”
“…” Luo Yan bit her lip, the apple in her hand was really tempting, but it was still good to eat. Do not eat it? Wang Chuan said it was not poisonous… Luo Yan decided to believe Wang Chuan, so he took a bite. Between chewing, the aroma of apples filled his mouth, Luo Yan couldn’t help but exclaim, “It’s so sweet.”
“Really?” Li Wenyu swallowed wildly, seeing Luo Yan eating deliciously, making him hungry.
Xuehu and Xiaoying were also a little hungry, but they were spiritual creatures, so fortunately they could hold back, Wang Chuan didn’t care, seeing Luo Yan eating happily, he was also happy. Several other people watched Luo Yan eating alone. It didn’t take long for a small apple to be destroyed by Luo Yan, leaving only an apple core. Luo Yan held the apple core and wanted to throw it further away. Xuehu’s eyes were attracted by the apple tree behind Xuehu… For a long time, she was speechless, and after a while of goosebumps, she pointed at the apple tree and said, “Look at…”
Xuehu and Xiaoying turned their heads at the same time. Seeing that there was another apple on the apple tree, everyone remembered that there was no apple just now, but they didn’t know how this apple appeared. If someone is making trouble, Wang Chuan should also feel it. When Luo Yan looked at Wang Chuan, Wang Chuan shook his head.
“One more, just right.” Li Wenyu didn’t care so much. He was hungry for a long time. He walked over and picked the apple, bit it down with a click, and his mouth was full of apple juice. like honey.
Xuehu carefully checked the roots of the apple tree and found nothing suspicious. He said to himself, “No problem.”
“No problem, it’s the biggest problem.” Luo Yan walked towards the apple tree, but No spiritual power was found on the apple tree, indicating that the apple tree should be normal, which made her even more puzzled.
Wang Chuan watched Li Wenyu finish eating the apple in his hand, pointed to another apple on the tree, and said calmly, “There is one more.”
“So, the apples on this apple tree will never be eaten. It’s over.” Luo Yan thought about it, it seemed that she had read such a story in a fairy tale, saying that there are such trees in the forest, either there are endless fruits on the trees, or there are more than enough to eat. bread, but really unheard of in real life.
The little parrot pouted, but she didn’t believe it. After Li Wenyu threw away the apple in her hand, there was another one on the tree. This time it was the little parrot’s turn. She devoured one and killed it directly, throwing away the apple core. , and found that there was another one on the tree. After repeating this many times, the little parrot couldn’t take it any longer, so she felt her stomach and looked at Xuehu.
“Sister Xuehu, it’s your turn.”
“Yeah.” Xuehu nodded, she was indeed a little hungry, so she picked the apples from the tree.
Like the first three times, after eating, another one grew on the tree. Wang Chuan felt it was strange. After summarizing many times, he found a problem. It was time for him, so he ordered, “Xuehu, Xiao Ying, look for the apple core you threw away just now.”
“Yes, sir.” Xuehu nodded and hurriedly walked down the slope. Fortunately, she could see herself clearly just now. The place where it was thrown was only a few steps away, but when she walked over to pull out the grass, she found that there was nothing. Xuehu hurriedly walked to the hillside and told Wang Chuan of the situation. The same was true for Xiao Ying over there. If one apple core could not be found, it could be counted as not being found, but all the apple cores seemed to be gone. Li Wenyu and Luo Yan searched, but did not find the apple core he threw. Such a result made Wangchuan understand one thing, so he reminded Luo Yan: “Luo … Yan, you can pick another one and try it.”
“Oh.” Luo Yan was also thinking about it in her heart, but she didn’t know Wangchuan. She thought about whether it was the same thing, so she walked to the apple tree and picked the apple on the tree. It was not as fast as the first time she ate it, and it took a while to finish it. After eating, Luo Yan put the apple core He held it in his hand and didn’t throw it away. Everyone stared at the apple tree and found that there were no more apples on the tree. When Luo Yan threw the apple core, another apple grew on the apple tree.
“Damn, so we won’t eat the same apple, right?” Li Wenyu seemed to understand.
Xuehu nodded and replied gently, “It’s possible.”
“It’s really amazing.” Luo Yan found that this mask country was getting more and more interesting, she hated that there would be more strange things happening in the future, so she pointed out Looking at the family he found in the distance, he said, “It’s getting late, and we can’t be here all the time. There seems to be someone living there. Let’s go and have a look.”
“Well.” Wang Chuan nodded.
Xuehu and Li Wenyu naturally had no objections, they followed Luo Yan, but they didn’t know that the house looked far away. After walking for less than ten minutes, before entering the yard, Li Wenyu was washed by a basin of water. a shower.
“Damn, did you make a mistake!?” Li Wenyu wiped the water from his face, opened his eyes, put his hand to his hand and smelled it, but there was no smell. “Fortunately, it’s not foot-washing water.”
“You’re unlucky enough…” Luo Yan, who was walking in front, couldn’t stand upright with a smile.
Wang Chuan looked at Li Wenyu and thought it was funny, so he smiled, and at this moment, a woman in a commoner came out.
“I’m sorry, I accidentally spilled it on you.” The woman who came out sounded like she was forty or fifty years old, and she couldn’t see her face because she was wearing a mask with only eyes, nose, and mouth. A little exposed. When she saw Wang Chuan and the others clearly, she seemed to be startled, and they shrank back. Before Xiao Ying could react, she heard the door closing inside.
Xuehu frowned, walked over to Wang Chuan, and asked softly, “Sir, it’s so strange, why is that woman wearing a mask?”
