MTL - Season Division-Chapter 9 are you crazy
Chapter 9 Are you crazy?
“I’ve heard people say before that any electronic equipment will lose its function in an area polluted by solar terms. It seems to be true. No wonder I’ve never seen a video related to solar term pollution.”
Xu Heng slowly recalled it, and realized that since he stepped into this street, his mobile phone had been disabled.
"Senior Sister's mobile phone is also turned off, is she here too?"
He was suddenly overjoyed, this possibility is very high, otherwise it is impossible for the senior sister not to pick him up.
But after looking at the street covered in white mist, Xu Heng did not dare to act rashly as people emerged from the fog from time to time and rushed to Situ's house for dinner.
For those who are not familiar with the place of life, it is not easy to find the senior sister here. If you are accidentally discovered by those strange things, I am afraid that you will die before the senior sister comes over.
He could feel that although the aura of those people in ancient costumes was very dangerous, if they were duel one-on-one, he could carry out a sneak attack with [No Trace], maybe he could still beat them.
But with the current situation of Situ's family, once he shows up, he definitely won't have the chance to fight one-on-one. There are too many ghosts.
As the saying goes, if a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, let alone Situ's family, he can't even stay here for too long.
"Zhou Yanan should be able to guess that I'm trapped here. As long as I'm careful enough and wait quietly for the relevant departments to solve this solar term pollution, I'll definitely be able to get out."
Xu Heng thought for a moment, and decided to find a safer place to hide and wait for rescue.
He looked around, saw that the white mist at both ends of the street was not so violent, and then resolutely got out from the corner. The cat rolled forward with his body, and then kicked his feet suddenly, and his body flew upwards lightly.
With a "whoosh", he successfully climbed over the wall of a house and jumped into the small courtyard.
The whole movement was smooth and smooth, and it was done in one go, without even hearing the sound of the feet landing, the person stood firm in the small courtyard.
"Hoo..."
Xu Heng breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, his foundation in martial arts was solid enough to not attract those weird attentions.
There should be no one in this family's house right now. Just now he saw the whole family dragging their families into Situ's house. Before they come back after eating, it should be safe here.
Xu Heng took a brief look at the courtyard, which was small and crude.
A piece of rag was spread on an open space, and there seemed to be something drying on it. There were black patches, and it was hard to see what it was.
At the foot of the wall next to it, there is a drying rack with a few uncollected clothes hanging on it.
Xu Heng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately stepped forward.
From the clothes, he judged a lot of things.
This family’s family background is indeed not very good. The fabrics of the clothes are mainly hemp, and the hostess likes to wear red, and her taste is very simple.
Xu Heng threw it away decisively, then took off a gray gown from the drying rack, and put it on directly with the clothes on his body.
Although it looks a little bloated, it fits well.
"But... what about the shoes and hairstyle?"
Xu Heng looked down at his white sneakers, and then turned to the simple house of this family.
After pondering for a moment, he quietly walked forward and slowly pushed open the wooden door.
"Crackling..."
There was a sound from the old and aging wooden door, but fortunately, the volume was not loud, and it didn't seem to cause any movement.
Xu Heng wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, and stepped into the room.
There is a strong musty smell in the room, the furniture is very old and full of dust.
The beams on the roof are still covered with spider silk, hanging down densely.
Xu Heng didn't care too much, went in and started searching.
After a while, I successfully found a pair of black cloth shoes and a hand-woven straw hat in the house, which perfectly solved the camouflage problem.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Xu Heng stopped in front of a wall.
There is an ink painting of a bamboo forest hanging on the wall. The inscription and inscription have long been blurred, and there are still some black stains on the corners and edges.
Xu Heng couldn't help being stunned. It's fine to hang a picture in such a poor family. What's the matter with the blackened finger print on the edge?
Is it because you are afraid that others will not know that you often move this painting?
Good guy, there is no silver here, so I don’t take thieves seriously.
Xu Heng knew that he was not a thief, but in order to increase the awareness of this family, he resolutely made a decision that violated the precepts of his ancestors.
He lifted the hanging picture and took down a wooden box hidden in the hole in the wall.
There was originally a small lock on the wooden box, but it was already rusty, and it broke directly with a light finger.
Xu Heng cautiously walked to the side, exposing only one finger, gently lifted the lid of the wooden box, and after confirming that there were no dangerous traps, he opened the wooden box completely.
Just by opening it, he was dumbfounded.
In the box, there was actually a slender incense stick. He had seen this thing in history books, and it was something that people used to worship in the past.
And under this incense stick, there is still a stack of old, somewhat whitish yellow paper.
"That's it?"
Xu Heng stared, quite unexpectedly.
Is this something so carefully hidden?
Well, not that cautious.
Snapped!
Suddenly, there was a muffled sound.
"who?"
Xu Heng was so frightened that he stretched out his hand to cover the back of his neck, jumped forward suddenly, and at the same time turned his body 180 degrees in the air, and turned to look behind him.
However, nothing was seen.
But just now, he clearly felt that something hit the back of his head, not too hard, but it carried a biting chill, which made his whole back feel a little numb.
"This place is not suitable for long stay!"
Xu Heng did not hesitate, stuffed the stick of incense and the yellow paper in the wooden box into his bosom, and rushed towards the door quickly.
Since he entered the courtyard of this family, he had a vague feeling of discomfort, as if something was pressing on him, and his chest felt tight.
I thought it was because I was too nervous, but now it seems that my thinking is too simple.
This place is so weird.
He quickly ran to the door, pulled open the wooden door, and was about to rush out.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a black shadow fell from above the door, directly blocking the way.
"My mother..."
Xu Heng exclaimed, reacted promptly, quickly stopped his figure, and retreated suddenly to open the distance.
Afterwards, the whole person froze in place.
Above the door of the room, there is an old man hanging. His physical body looks dry, but there is no decay.
The two eyeballs were also intact, protruding from the dry skin, as if they were just hanging on the cheekbones, staring at Xu Heng.
With a gust of wind blowing outside the door, the old man's body also began to sway back and forth, his feet swinging so much that he almost kicked Xu Heng in front of him.
"Hiss..."
Xu Heng suddenly took a deep breath.
The feeling of being tapped on the back of the head just now seems to be very similar to the cloth shoes on the old man's feet.
The key is…
He lowered his head slightly and looked at the black cloth shoes on his feet.
Classic same style!
This is a shoe bump... It's a hit!
…
At the same time, in the ancient town shrouded in white mist.
Several figures were passing through the street and stopped in a dark alley, panting heavily.
The faces of several people were a little pale, two of the women were covered in blood, and the entire palm of a man was broken, and the fracture was only wrapped with a piece of white gauze.
The gauze had already been dyed red, and blood was still dripping down continuously.
"Team Zhou, the situation is very wrong. The people in charge of Tiansi underestimated the pollution level of this solar term." The man was sweating profusely and gritted his teeth.
"This is definitely more than a blue alert level, I'm afraid it's close to a yellow alert level."
"Damn it, how many gas bombs did those cult members release?"
The other two injured women also spoke one after another, frowning.
Zhou Yanan's face was also livid at the moment. She was not in charge of cleaning up the pollution of solar terms, but in order to let Xu Heng leave, she led a small team to act alone.
Unexpectedly, people didn't receive it. Halfway through, the solar term pollution suddenly expanded, trapping them in.
The most unlucky thing is that there is a main street behind the white mist. When they came in, they happened to bump into a few people in ancient costumes.
It turned out that their side was defeated and fell into a complete disadvantage. If the man hadn't repelled the men in ancient costumes at the cost of one palm, they might not have had the chance to escape here.
"Team Zhou, the operation mission may have to be suspended. The pollution level of the Qingming Festival this time is too high for us to deal with. Fu Yongqing's junior brother may have already..."
The man looked at Zhou Yanan and said in a low voice.
Although the other two women did not speak, they also looked at Zhou Yanan.
They agree with the man's words. According to the location where they entered the polluted area just now, it happens to be the second block, which belongs to the outer area of the polluted area.
The location of Xu Heng's old house is very close to the center of the polluted area. Even if he escaped before the pollution broke out completely, he could only escape to the third block at most.
It belongs to the junction of the central area and the peripheral area.
The strength of their team is not bad, at least they can protect themselves in blue-level pollution areas.
But now it’s just the weirdness encountered in the peripheral area, so difficult to deal with, how can a six-vein warrior in Xu Heng survive in the third block?
Zhou Yanan was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "This is not far from the edge of the polluted area, you should stay here and rest, and wait for the rescue team to come."
"What?" The expressions of the man and the two women changed upon hearing this.
"Team Zhou..."
"Okay, stop talking."
Zhou Yanan raised her hand to interrupt the dissuasion of several people, and said expressionlessly: "I also think that kid is probably dead, but there is no way, I owe this to Fu Yongqing, at least if you want to see someone alive, you must see the dead body. This is the end of your mission, and the next action is my personal behavior, which has nothing to do with you."
After finishing speaking, Zhou Yanan ignored the dissuasion of several people, and directly rushed out of the alley to the direction of the third block.
This direction also happened to be the original direction to Xu Heng's old house.
So as long as Xu Heng doesn't run around, she will definitely meet Xu Heng along this road to the third block. Of course, she may also encounter Xu Heng's body.
"It's a pity, he is a pretty handsome brother. Although his mouth is a little bit short, at least he looks good. If he really dies..."
Zhou Yanan shook her head, with a solemn expression and a trace of regret in her eyes.
She really hoped that Xu Heng was still alive, but felt that the possibility was unlikely.
If that kid really died, how would that woman Fu Yongqing react? I'm afraid I will find those cult lunatics everywhere and kill them again, right?
"kindness?"
Suddenly, Zhou Yanan sensed movement in front of her, and immediately stopped, dodging to the corner of the street.
After hiding himself with the help of a cover, his eyes turned to the white mist ahead.
After a surge of thick fog, a figure just jumped out of the wall of a family's yard and landed firmly on the ground.
Afterwards, the figure looked around furtively, and ran towards another house next door with a cat.
Zhou Yanan's eyes widened on the spot, her face full of horror.
She saw clearly the appearance of that figure just now, that handsome face, who else could it be except Xu Heng?
The point is, that kid is actually carrying the dead body of an old man on his body, but he is running around like a normal person?
are you crazy?
