mine in my dream

Chapter 4 Gaining Energy
Li Yu forced himself to stand where he was, and even if he tried hard, he had to make it through the night.

At this time, the three weirdos turned their heads again, looked at Li Yu, then at Uncle Zhao, and beckoned him to go over.

Li Yu bit the bullet and walked over.

One of the strange men pointed to Uncle Zhao's body, as if asking him to hold him.

Li Yu tremblingly put his hands on the back of the corpse.

Perhaps it was a psychological effect, Li Yu felt that the corpse was cold and cold, and his hands were going to be numb with ice.

The three weirdos let go of Uncle Zhao, and let Li Yu support the corpse alone, keeping it in a sitting position.

One of the weirdos grabbed Uncle Zhao's hair and broke it back forcefully.After a creepy sound, Uncle Zhao's neck was bent at a strange angle.

His head was hanging upside down on his back, just facing Li Yu.

Li Yu's scalp was numb, and he really wanted to let go and run away.

Dead people are ugly, with sunken cheeks and blue skin.Especially with the head hanging upside down, looking at the facial features from this angle is indescribably weird.

And the weird guy didn't finish yet, he grabbed Uncle Zhao's hair with one hand and his chin with the other, and with a forceful pry, he opened Uncle Zhao's mouth.

His face was stretched like this, and Uncle Zhao's eyes that were originally tightly closed suddenly opened.

Li Yu shivered, and subconsciously took his hand back.

Uncle Zhao's body was about to lie backwards.

The weird man had sharp eyes and quick hands, supported Uncle Zhao, and then looked at Li Yu expressionlessly.

Li Yu gritted his teeth, took a step forward, and supported him again.

The strange man pinched Uncle Zhao's mouth, stretched out two fingers to probe inside, and then shook his head at the other two.

Another weirdo took out a thin needle from his body and began to pierce the acupuncture points on the corpse.

Li Yu didn't know what they were doing.He could only hold his breath and desperately divert his attention, imagining that what he was holding was not a corpse, but a table, or a chair...

During this process, Li Yu finally saw these three weirdos clearly.After all, the distance between the two sides is too close.

Li Yu saw that these three people had corpse spots on their faces, and their movements were slightly stiff and not smooth.

They are definitely not alive.

At this time, the strange man's inspection was also over. He put away the needle and shook his head, indicating that he didn't find what he was looking for.

The three weirdos let go of the corpse and started rummaging in the yard.

Li Yu carefully placed Uncle Zhao on the coffin, then bit the bullet and straightened his head, helping him close his eyes.

This is probably the only thing Li Yu, the spirit guard, can do tonight.

Three weirdos are rummaging through the yard.Li Yu now probably understands what the words of Nightmare World mean: don't say anything, don't be discovered.

It's not about not being seen, but about not being seen through.

My task tonight is to pretend to be a dead person, as long as my identity is not seen through, it will be considered a success.

Thinking of this, Li Yu took a deep breath, and began to search pretendingly, so as not to be too conspicuous, too special, and arouse suspicion.

Li Yu was honing his foreign work, while stealthily observing the other three weirdos.

He saw one of the eccentrics turn on the faucet, catch a bowl of water in a broken bowl, sniff it vigorously, and throw it away.

He saw another weirdo opened Uncle Zhao's pickle jar, dipped his finger in some liquid, and then kicked the jar to pieces.

The third weirdo picked up a wine bottle from the corner.There is some cloudy dirty water in the wine bottle, which may have accumulated in it from rain.

The weirdo poured some dirty water on his hand, then shook his head, and threw the bottle away.

Li Yu suddenly realized: They were looking for some kind of liquid.

At this time, Li Yu smelled a burnt smell. He turned his head and found that the rice in the pot was burnt.

When Li Yu just walked into this small courtyard, Uncle Zhao was sitting next to the earthen stove and lighting a fire. Now that he is dead, the firewood has not been extinguished. After cooking the rice, it burnt again...

The food is ready, but the people are gone. It's really sad.

Wait, isn't Uncle Zhao already dead?And he knows he's dead, does he need to eat?There is a problem here.

The more Li Yu thought about it, the more something was wrong. He walked to the earthen stove and lifted the lid off.

Inside the pot is millet porridge, the water is boiling, and the rice grains are rolling up and down inside.

"This thing seems to be liquid too." Li Yu thought secretly.

There was a spoon on top of the clay stove, and Li Yu took a spoonful from it, blew a little, then imitated those strange people, and poured it into his hands.

To Li Yu's surprise, the rice soup didn't seem to be hot.

Li Yu's behavior was simply imitating the three weirdos, so as not to appear out of place.After he finished his performance, he was about to throw the rice soup on the ground with his hands.

But at this time, a few lines of words that had been floating in front of Li Yu's eyes flashed, and then a sentence appeared on the bottom line:

Gain energy: 2.

Li Yu was slightly taken aback: Energy?Energy in the rice?
He tried to scoop up another spoonful and poured it into the palm of his hand, the energy became 4.

Li Yu was overjoyed: "Great, if you find energy, your father's illness will be cured."

When he scooped up the third spoonful, Li Yu suddenly came back to his senses.

Did those three weirdos also come for energy?Otherwise, what have they been looking for?Why did they check the liquid in the small yard?
Li Yu suddenly became a little anxious.If this thing is discovered by three weirdos, I'm afraid I will lose all my credit.

At this time, Li Yu had been standing next to the earthen stove for a while, and the three weirdos might have become a little suspicious.

Li Yu didn't have time to think about it. He gritted his teeth and put his hand into the rice pot.

The hot millet porridge immediately wrapped his palm.But Li Yu didn't feel hot, but was warm and seemed quite comfortable.

与此同时，眼前的数字在暴涨。10、20、30、50、80……眼看就要突破100了。

At this time, footsteps came from behind Li Yu.

Li Yu's heart tightened: the weirdo is still suspicious, and they are here.

At this time, Li Yu should immediately withdraw his hand and pretend that nothing had happened.

But Li Yu decided to take a gamble.Instead of taking his hand out, he seized the moment and charged energy, he even dipped his entire arm in it.

Numbers are skyrocketing even faster.

Patta, a cold hand patted Li Yu's shoulder.

At the same time, the beating of the energy number ended and finally settled at 150.

Li Yu suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, he turned around with a dull expression, and looked at the strange man behind him as calmly as possible.

The weird man took his hands off Li Yu's shoulders, pushed his chest to make him back up, then leaned over to the earthen stove, and looked at the rice inside.

The rice soup has disappeared, leaving only rice grains stuck to the pot.

These rice grains have been completely mushy, giving off an unpleasant burnt smell.

The strange man sniffed, then stretched out his hand to grab a few grains of rice and twisted them.

Li Yu's heart was in his throat: If the weirdo found out that there was energy left in the pot, he would definitely be suspected.Where does the rest of the energy go?Will the weirdo easily let himself go?
