Chapter 983 Strange Empty Place
Antonio's wish came true that night.
He saw many people, but none of them were alive.
The afterglow of the setting sun spread across the earth with the last bit of warmth, and they set up camp in an open space to rest.
From the carriage, I only felt that this piece of land was flat and open, not far from the main road. When I got off the carriage, I found that the ground was paved with neat stone bricks. However, I didn't know how much time had passed since the weeds and dust growing in the cracks of the bricks obscured its original appearance.
Lu Xinyuan pulled out some grass, wiped off the dust on the bricks, and knocked on the brick surface with his knuckles: "The stone is hard and the bricks are thick. How can there be such bricks in this wilderness?"
"Is it strange?" Antonio was unloading things from the carriage. "Maybe it's an abandoned road, or a town?"
"Maybe. But most of the bricks we saw along the way were large square bricks. We have never seen these palm-sized flat bricks before..." Lu Xinyuan stood up and looked into the distance. He said to Lin Fan, "I will explore further to see if I can find out what this place was originally."
"I'm going too!" Antonio would definitely be impatient when encountering something new, even if it was just exploring the way.
He jumped and ran after Lu Xinyuan.
Merlinil grunted, left Lin Fan alone to watch the car, and went to the distant woods to collect firewood.
Lin Fan bent down to pull out the weeds, and in fact, tiny wind blades were emitted, swirling and cutting along the ground. She deliberately slowed down her pace, and soon she had cleared a space, which looked like she had really pulled it out by hand from a distance.
A low-key breeze blew the broken grass into the bushes. Lin Fan opened the box on the ground and took something out.
When Antonio and Lu Xinyuan came back, the simple camp was ready, with felt cushions, dishes and food, and the only thing missing was a bonfire in the middle.
"Hey!" Antonio picked up the wine jug and took two gulps. "This piece of land is really big. There's a pond in the front and a broken sculpture of some kind in the middle. It might be a fountain, but the carving feels unusual. It doesn't look like something you'd see on a normal roadside."
"Is there water?" Lin Fan looked up and asked.
"No," Antonio picked up a grape, "it dried up a long time ago, otherwise it would have been impossible to throw it away."
Places with water are suitable for survival, not to mention that the ground is paved with stone bricks.
"This place feels a bit strange." Lu Xinyuan also sat down. "There are no signs of construction at all. There are no signs of walls or doorposts. It seems that they just paved a large flat area with bricks and built a fountain in the middle."
But in reality, who would do such a thankless task?
The walls of the poor houses were still made of grass and mud. In the town of Fenan, not all the houses were made of stone. Even the road they walked on was paved with stone bricks only when they approached the town. Including the main road all the way here, it was just a flat and compacted dirt road.
Under these conditions, who would be so idle and take the time to pave such a large area of land in the middle of nowhere, with a fountain in the middle? The point is that it is still abandoned...
“Could it be related to the God Clan?” Lin Fan shook his head as soon as he said this, “No, if it is really related to the God Clan, then we can’t just let it go to waste.”
Lu Xinyuan also fell into deep thought.
"Hey, why think so much?" Antonio half-lay on the carpet, leaning against the cushion, with his legs raised high with his back to Lin Fan. "Who cares? We're just passing by and will leave tomorrow morning."
If they were not unfamiliar with the place and there were too many uncertainties when walking at night, and if Lu Xinyuan and Merlinniel, two normal people, needed better rest, they would not have stopped every night.
More than forty hours a day, even Lin Fan felt exhausted.
I feel like I'm forced to work overtime every day, and it's still not dark yet.
After he said this, the two people who were confused about the connection were soon relieved.
"Where's Merlin?" Lu Xinyuan realized that the bonfire had not yet been lit. Now the only lighting source was the two lights on the carriage and the reflection of the wall. "Did he go to collect firewood? How long has he been gone?"
"I'm right behind you guys," Lin Fan looked at the dark forest in the distance, "Nothing will happen, right?"
"Not really, we just came from there." Lu Xinyuan stood up with a smile and patted his pants. "It should be because we are short of one person, so the efficiency is a bit slow. I'll go take a look and turn on the light for him."
"Go away, hurry up!" Antonio waved his hands repeatedly to drive them away.
Lu Xinyuan took a lamp off the carriage and carried it away.
Lin Fan was just thinking whether he should store more firewood during the day next time so that he wouldn't have to go out to collect it every day, when he suddenly heard Antonio say, "What?"
"What are you doing?" Lin Fan was a little confused. He turned his head to look at the top of the head of the person who was lying on his side with his head propped up and drinking.
Antonio raised his head and looked at Lin Fan beside him: "Why did you poke me just now? Don't you have something to tell me in private? There's no one around now, go ahead."
"..." Lin Fan saw that his expression was sincere and recalled it for a moment, saying innocently, "I didn't poke you..."
Night had fallen, and the carriage reflected a golden light, but where the light could not reach, it was even darker.
Just then a gust of wind blew by, bringing a cool feeling to my skin, and the surrounding weeds all rustled, as if someone was whispering not far away.
Antonio got goosebumps all over his body, and rolled off the mat with a terrified look on his face: "Don't scare me!"
Lin Fan was also startled. He looked at the place where he had just been lying and moved closer to the light: "I didn't scare you..."
Antonio had already rushed over, turning the place where he had just been lying upside down.
The stone bricks on the ground remained motionless, but the soil in the cracks between the stones was slightly raised due to weeding.
Antonio searched carefully for a long time, but didn't see any snakes, insects, rats or ants. He could only pick up the blanket and spread it back. After thinking for a while, he moved forward. "Forget it, it's probably just a bug bite."
Lin Fan felt relieved and helped to clean up with a smile: "Are you still afraid of those?"
Antonio's behavior just now clearly showed that he was afraid of ghosts.
He usually looks very bold and is not afraid of anything... Oh, no, he is afraid of the eldest senior brother, although he would not admit it.
"No way!" Antonio denied it, looking calm and composed. "I'm just afraid there might be some dangerous animals. What if I accidentally hurt you?"
Lin Fan smiled and said nothing.
Not long after the two of them sat down again, the warm yellow light from the forest grew bigger and bigger. It was Merlinil and the others who had returned.
Antonio breathed a sigh of relief: "This guy took so long to pick up firewood, he's so slow!"
Lin Fan smiled and lowered his head to pick up a fruit.
"Hey, baby!" Antonio's voice suddenly became serious again, "You're not touching me now, are you?"
Lin Fan was stunned and immediately looked behind Antonio.
A white, thin object was hooked on his belt. Without thinking, Lin Fan threw the fruit in his hand away.
“Bang!” “Crash!”
Antonio turned around and pressed down the smashed white shadow, only to feel a sharp pain in his palm.
"What is it?" he asked Lin Fan.
"I can't see clearly." Lin Fan said seriously, "Wait a minute, I'll take down the light."
She stood up to get the light, but Antonio cried out, "It's moving, it's moving!"
Lin Fan stepped onto the carriage in two steps, took off the lamp, held it high and jumped. Antonio's palm hurt so much that he quickly clenched his fist, held the object in his palm, and moved it to the lamp.
As soon as I loosened my hand, a thin white shadow jumped out impatiently and tried to drill into the ground. In an instant, everything in my hand was gone.
Lin Fan quickly kicked a white shadow, grabbed another one, squeezed it hard, and held it in front of the lamp...
It was a finger bone.
It was a moving, lively human bone that was struggling to escape control!
It was about 10 o'clock in the evening. I was working hard on a drawing when my computer suddenly made a tractor-like sound.
I thought it was the hard drive making noises, but when I checked the process, the hard drive didn't move.
It turned out to be the power supply.
It suddenly rang out of nowhere.
After much effort, I cleared the desk, took out the computer, turned it sideways, and checked the power supply. The fan stopped making noise after I turned off the fan start/stop function. It felt like the fan hit something, but there was nothing on the outside. Maybe something inside had come loose?
I installed the computer for two months and it was silent all the time. Suddenly, there was a big problem? Now it is silent after restarting. I don’t know what’s going on. I will ask customer service tomorrow.
He didn't even bother to clean up the mess on his desk and continued drawing.
