Into the infinite game to write pit text

The mud covered the corpse almost completely, and the exposed corners of the clothes were stained with mud, so it was impossible to see it unless you looked carefully.

Only Zhang Mao's lifeless face was suddenly exposed in the mud.

Xu Shu and others were called over by Yang Rui, and the five players found tools to dig out the corpse bit by bit and carried them back to the shore.

There were no wounds on Zhang Mao's body, but his stomach was very distended, and there were some white and reddish foam around his mouth and nose.

His skin is also wrinkled, as if soaked in water for a long time.

Xu Shu tried to press his belly, and it felt soft, like pressing on an inflated balloon.

"What's in the stomach?" Yang Rui asked.

Yu Yao clicked his tongue: "He should have drowned."

"Ah?" Yuan Guang said dubiously: "It's not even easy to find a puddle in this damn place, how could he have drowned? Could he have drowned in the mud?"

Yu Yao shrugged: "Who knows, anyway, judging from the condition of the corpse, it does meet the characteristics of drowning."

"How could this be..." Yang Rui looked at the river with no water at all, frowned and said, "It's all right, how could he drown? Could it be that he did something before we met for the first time?" Something triggered a taboo?"

This is now a mystery that will never be solved.

Xu Shu said: "I think the taboo should be related to that little girl. Although I'm not sure what it is, everyone should be careful not to offend her."

"It has something to do with her?" Yuan Guang asked suspiciously, "Why do you think so?"

Xu Shu then told Yuan Guang and Yang Rui about Xiao He's going out in the middle of the night and about her lying to them.

Because they all acted separately before, and Xiaohe was there when they returned to the courtyard, so they didn't find a chance to talk about it.

After the two listened, they also believed that Zhang Mao's death had a lot to do with her.

Yang Rui hesitated and said: "Since we know that she has a problem, why do we still stay with her? If she doesn't say the right thing, she will kill us like she killed Zhang Mao. How about Let's find another place to live tonight, don't go back and look for her, shall we?"

Yu Yao let out a "shh", with a smile on his lips, and said slowly: "If I remember correctly, Zhang Mao said in front of the girl the night before his disappearance that he wanted to drive her away. This should be regarded as the only communication between them. Therefore, there is a high probability that Zhang Mao's death has something to do with this sentence - you say that now, do you want to court death?"

While they were talking, Xu Shu silently looked up at the river not far away, and some unbelievable thoughts quickly occupied his mind.

Xiao He said that her father took her name from the fact that there is a big river outside the town.

However, what she said before has been proven to be all lies.That so-called "home" was not her home at all, and of course there was no such a father who named her after her.

So where did her name come from?

If Zhang Mao's death really had something to do with her, and Zhang Mao was drowned, could it be...she is the incarnation of this river?

Because there is absolutely no way to find enough water nearby to drown a person, unless the river suddenly swells—this is absolutely not something human can do.

This idea is really a very bold assumption, so bold that even Xu Shu himself felt that it was unlikely to be true.

But what if?

In these games, what they should do is to make bold assumptions and carefully verify them.

Xu Shu withdrew his gaze, looked down at the dry grass in front of him, and thought secretly.

After a while, something vaguely flashed through his mind.

It's the corpses...

Xu Shu closed his eyes, and carefully recalled all the people he had met in the town in his mind.

From corpses, to the dying, to those who survived by eating human flesh...

"What are you thinking?" Yuan Guang asked suddenly.

Xu Shu opened his eyes and looked at the others: "Do you think that the children in the dead bodies in this town are almost all male?"

Everyone froze for a moment, recalling one after another.

A few minutes later, Yang Rui was the first to say: "That's right, I remember, I seem to have only seen the bodies of two girls."

Among those who survived, there were only adults and no children.

"That's right." Xu Shu said, "Combining with the statues of Guanyin who sent a son we found in those houses in the town, can we probably be sure that the theme of this game has something to do with patriarchy?"

Yuan Guang frowned: "When we saw those Avalokitesvara statues, we also thought of

Patriarchy is now, but the question is, what is the connection between this patriarchy and drought and famine? "

Xu Shu shook his head and didn't speak any more.

If the small river is the river outside, then maybe it has something to do with it.

It's just that it's still a completely unfounded guess right now, so it's better for him not to say it.

Otherwise, if he thinks wrong, wouldn't he be misleading other people's thinking?It may even cause everyone to have an accident.

He will not say this idea until he finds corroboration.

"It's getting dark, should we go back?" Yang Rui looked at the sky and hesitated: "To be honest, I felt a little scared of that child last night when I saw her eating human flesh. The murderous ghost in the game... I really don't want to go back."

Yu Yao spat out the grass roots he was chewing, and stood up from the grass: "It doesn't matter what you like, anyway, I'm going back."

As he spoke, he picked up the hoe and walked towards the town.

Xu Shu and Ji Chuan looked at each other, and they also picked up their tools and walked back.

But on the way, Xu Shu asked Ji Chuan: "Why don't we ask the living people in the town first, and ask them about the old customs in the town?"

If, as he guessed, the small river is the river, then how can "patriarchy" be connected with a river?

The only possibility is that the townspeople threw their daughters into the river and drowned after giving birth.

This kind of thing happened not only in ancient times, but even in the 80s and [-]s, so Xu Shu thought it was extremely possible.

If Xiaohe is the incarnation of that river, then is it also a hint that she thinks the appearance of a little girl?

In short, from the current point of view, the four words "preferring boys to girls" are indeed the theme of this game.

Ji Chuan nodded and agreed to Xu Shu's proposal.

However, when the five players walked into the town, something unexpected happened.

They saw that Xiaohe, who had promised to stay in the courtyard and waited for them to go back, came out from the gate of one of the houses!

When she came out, she lowered her head slightly, her cheeks bulging like a rabbit chewing on something.

Yu Yao, who was the first to see her, immediately made a silent movement, pulled Yang Rui who was closest to him to the side, and hid in the alley between the two houses.

The other three were not slow to react, and immediately found the nearest bunker to hide, only slightly revealing one eye to look over there.

Xu Shu hid under a smashed booth, looking at the river through the gaps in the wood.

She didn't seem to notice them, but while chewing something, she turned around briskly and walked towards the courtyard.

It's really hard to connect with her brisk appearance.

Even if she can eat human flesh for a living, she looks very thin, as if a gust of wind could blow her down, how could she still have the strength to bounce around like this?

Xu Shu looked at her in surprise as she turned the corner and disappeared at the other end, then slowly stood up and said to the other players, "Would you like to go in and have a look?"

Everyone naturally nodded in agreement.

"I remember a person lived here, a middle-aged man." Xu Shu said.

The total number of people living in the town should be around [-], and the person living in this house is the same person he and Yuan Guang had met when they first came to the town.

At that time, the other party went out to the street and picked a "two-legged sheep" that was still alive and carried it home.

Yuan Guang also remembered this person, he walked to the door first, and pushed the half-covered door panel open with a light force.

The room was a bit dark, but after all, it wasn't dark yet, so you could see it clearly if you looked carefully.

The room was almost the same as when Xu Shu and the others came here to find clues. What should have been dumped on the ground was still there, broken things were not picked up, and all kinds of garbage were littered all over the floor.

This is not bad, because there are still white human bones piled up in the small yard after passing through the back door of the shop.

Here, like other families with living people, dried human meat is dried in order to prevent human meat from rotting.Otherwise, after a period of time, all the flesh of the corpse would rot, and they would have nothing to eat anymore.

In short, although this place looks like a lair inhabited by demons, it can be seen that people are inhabited after all.

It's just... Obviously Xu Shu and the others saw this man yesterday when they were looking for clues, but today they couldn't find him no matter what.

The area of ​​the house is not big, and it took only a short time for the five people to search everywhere, but it was empty everywhere, and there was no one at all.

Xu Shu also saw a pile of firewood that had just been burnt in the kitchen, and there was a mass of dark flesh smothered in the ashes.Both ashes and flesh were steaming.

In other words, not long ago, there were people making food here.

But that person just disappeared.

The players who saw Xiaohe walking out of this house just now couldn't help but recall her chewing mouth.

Yang Rui shuddered, and stammered, "Could it be that this person... was eaten by her?"

"It's definitely her!" Yuan Guang said, "She must be a ghost. If we want to survive, we must not offend her!"

Yu Yao rubbed his chin and looked at Xu Shu: "It seems to be true. But—doesn't anyone think that all this is a bit too simple?"

Xu Shu nodded.

Yeah, it's too simple.Judging from the current situation, as long as they don't provoke Xiao He, no one will die.

And it is not difficult for humans to survive ten days without food...

So, this game is here to let the players live safely to the end?

But this is the fourth game anyway, so it's over if only one person dies?

The author has something to say: update one chapter first, I will go out to celebrate my family's birthday later, so the next chapter may be very late, you can read it tomorrow!
