Huff [other world]

Chapter 35

The heavy rain and thunder roared outside the window, but the house seemed to be wrapped in layers of dead silence, depressing and anxious.

Shan Jiu waited silently for a long time, looked sideways at Renault, "It seems that nothing happened, has the thing outside the window just now left?" when he said the word 'something'.He deliberately lowered his voice.

Renault looked away from the broken glass window, and after a long time, he looked at the old woman, "It's late, we're going to sleep."

Everyone: "..."

Lei Nuo silently endured the crazy eyes, and asked again, "What's wrong?"

"Ignorant idiot, you only want to sleep at this time!" The old woman walked up to Lei Nuo tremblingly, her fingers were about to poke his forehead, "Do you know what happened just now? "The sallow teeth protruded from under her shriveled mouth, "We will die."

"tonight?"

"At this moment a week later." Speaking of this, the old woman's eyes were flushed, and her dry fingers wiped her face indiscriminately.Turning around and walking towards the door, grabbing Morena's arm and dragging her out of the room, he said to the two of them, "If you don't want to die too ugly early, don't try to escape from the village, cross the line at the village gate, No one can save you."

Bang, the door was slammed shut.

Lei Nuo looked sideways at Shan Jiu, and found that Shan Jiu was also looking at him.After thinking about it, he said, "It's still early."

"What's early?"

"One more week."

"..." Shan Jiu wanted to tear off Lei Nuo's calm face, "This is not comforting at all."

No one is so calm when they are warned of death, except, of course, Renault.

Renault rubbed Shan Jiu's pointed ears that were trembling with anger, got out of bed, walked to the window, stepped on the bloody glass shards with the soles of his shoes, making frequent clicking noises.

call.

Another gust of wind blew by, and the window frame trembled slightly. Renault pushed open the window and looked into the distance. His dark golden eyes shone with a strange light. He lowered his head, and from the wall under the window to the ground, there was a puddle washed by the rain. Into a pale red bloodstain.

After wiping off the raindrops on his face, Renault closed the windows, closed the curtains, folded the lower half of the curtains, and pressed the flower pots on the window sill to barely block the cold wind that crazily poured into the room. .

"What's out there?"

"nothing?"

Shan Jiu squinted his eyes and looked at him, "Don't lie to me, it's clearly written on your face 'The scene outside is so cruel, don't tell Shan Jiu'!"

Renault subconsciously scowled, "There's really nothing."

Getting out of bed, he stuffed his feet into his shoes indiscriminately, ran to the window drooping, raised a corner and looked... Shan Jiu closed the curtains expressionlessly, climbed onto the bed and wrapped himself in the quilt like a mummy.

Lei Nuo walked to the bed, pulled the quilt away, and Shan Jiu rolled away, paralyzed in the middle of the bed, looking pitifully at Lei Nuo: "Do you believe it?"

"What do you believe?" Renault then lay flat beside him, and spread the quilt over the two of them.

"That old woman said we only had a week to live."

"Do not believe."

Shan Jiu was silent for a moment, then said, "Reynolds."

"Ok?"

Shan Jiu turned around violently, grabbed Lei Nuo's collar and shook it vigorously, "I'm so scared ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Lei Nuo cooperated with Shan Jiu's strength and swayed left and right, and said seriously, "Shan Jiu, I think you seem to be more excited than afraid."

"Huh?" Shan Jiu was taken aback, let go of his hands, lowered his head slightly, only showing his pointed ears, and said in a low voice, "Ju, you actually saw it..."

Lei Nuo suddenly found that, occasionally, Shan Jiu was a little nervous.

Heiliang eyes were fixed on Lei Nuo's golden eyes, and Shan Jiuyu patted him on the shoulder earnestly, "Lei Nuo, thinking that we might die in a week, why not take advantage of the dark and windy night of this month... we ?”

Renault was puzzled.

Shan Jiu winked at him.

"Is your eyes uncomfortable?"

Shan Jiu stared.

Renault was innocent, "What's wrong?"

"wood!"

Wood Reynolds continued to work.

What can you do on a dark and windy night?

He raised his hand and covered Shan Jiu with the quilt, "It's cold at night, don't move around while sleeping."

Hopeless.

Shan Jiu sighed, reached out his hand and silently said to Renault's drenched short hair, "Go to sleep, Wood."

Shan Jiu, who squinted his eyes, trembled at the tips of his ears, and looked at Lei Nuo, "Actually, I have heard very strange sounds since the very beginning."

Renault looked down at Shan Jiu who was shrunk in his arms, "What's the sound?"

"The sound of little paws scratching something, and a very familiar cry."

Renault's eyes drifted to the closed bedroom door, but he didn't speak.

Eyes opened, "It seems to be our cute product?"

"You heard it wrong, it's not it."

Looking at this expression, Shan Jiu knew it must be.Moreover, it is estimated that Renault has already discovered that the cute goods are nearby, but he did not tell him.

Inexplicably, I looked around the room, but I didn't see the little guy.I remember that it clearly went out with Morena just now.

Suddenly, Shan Jiu's gaze paused, and with the help of the faint light... he saw half of the fluffy and fluffy hair caught in the crack of the door.

puff.

A certain one with feline ears smiled unkindly.

Huangmao wanted to leave with the beautiful and gentle Morena before, but unexpectedly, the fierce old woman didn't notice it at all, and closed the bedroom door with force.

The yellow hair that was almost caught in two, ran out with short legs desperately, but it came out from the body, but the dull hair was caught by the door.

Guji Guji screamed for a long time, but no one paid attention to him.

Morena was called into the room by the old woman and never came out.But Shan Jiu and Lei Nuo didn't even notice that they were gone.

The big yellow hair and red eyes are watery, and the fluffy body is sitting on the ground, the little paws are stirring the fluff on the belly, crying and twitching.

Suddenly, the door behind him was pulled open.

Guck!

Huang Mao, who had lost his center of gravity, fell backwards unprepared.Turning his head up, he saw a large hand with callused fingers stretched out towards it.For the first time, Huang Mao felt that being caught by Lei Nuo was such a happy thing.

Seeing his cute stuff, Shan Jiu finally settles down.Whether it was frightened or excited, he was tired after tossing until midnight.

He got into the quilt and put the yellow hair between himself and Renault.Seeing that the other party's face was not very good-looking, he thought about it for a moment, honestly put the yellow hair on the corner of the bed, and let it curl up into a ball alone.

All in all, Shan Jiu thought that he was destined to suffer from insomnia after experiencing such a strange event tonight.

As a result, the sense of security that Renault gave him was so strong that... Shan Jiu lay on Renault's broad and warm chest, drooling in his sleep.

Compared with Lei Nuo and Shan Jiu's leisurely, Morena and the old lady's mood was extremely heavy.

By the way, the old lady's name is Afra, Afra Morena.She took her surname as her first name and gave it to her youngest daughter.

Aphra sat on the head of the bed in a daze, her rough fingers rubbed against a dilapidated small photo frame, inside was a yellowed photo.There are five people on it, her husband, the eldest son and the second son, and the youngest daughter Morena.

Now, only their lonely mother and daughter are left in the family.

result……

Withered fingers covered his face, and his thin shoulders trembled slightly.

Morena stood aside, her beautiful big eyes lost their original luster, she looked at Aphra's mixed silver hair dimly, sighed softly, reached out to hold her shoulder, and hugged Aphra from behind , rubbed her rough face with his cheek.

Suddenly, there was a knock on their door.

Not light nor heavy, very rhythmic.

Morena was stunned, touched the red corners of her eyes with the back of her hand, and walked over.

Outside.

It was Lei Nuo standing upright and dignified, but unfortunately there was a suspicious water stain on his chest, which destroyed the overall sense of coordination... It was Shan Jiu's saliva.

Morena looked up at him, then looked back at Afra, hesitated for a moment, turned sideways, and let Renault enter the room.

Afra didn't give him a good look, "What are you doing here?"

"I have a question to ask." Renault looked down at the thin old woman, "What happened in the village, what are you afraid of, and what do you mean by 'you won't survive a week'?"

Aphra lowered her head, rubbing her fingers against the photo frame again and again.

"I don't believe that ghosts exist in this world." Renault stared at Aphra, "If you are willing to tell me what happened, I will do my best to protect your safety."

"Why should I trust you?" Aphra sneered, "Two unidentified guys."

Renault's tone was serious and firm, "You don't have to believe in my ability, but please believe that, for the sake of that stupid guy in the next room who is sleeping in the dark, I will do my best to protect his safety."

"It's just you?" Aphra put the photo album on the small table, looked up and down Renault sharply, "Why should I trust you?"

Renault glanced at the photo and looked away.

"You have two sons." After a pause, "They should be about the same age as me now, where are they now?"

Aphra was taken aback for a moment, and then said angrily, "This is none of your business!"

Renault turned his gaze to Morena.

Morena stood behind Afra and secretly made a few hand gestures.

Renault continued, "They all joined the army? This is..." He paused, "Serving the country is something to be proud of." Renault squatted down, and Aphra, who usually sat on the edge of the sand bed, said, "I think You must have been here, waiting for their triumphant return, if you don't want the so-called 'death in a week' to happen, please tell me what happened here."

Aphra shook her head, "It's useless." She buried her head in her hands, and her shoulders twitched slightly, "They are all dead. Many people in the village are dead. We can't leave here."

"Why?" Renault asked in a low voice, "Why can't you leave?"

"When you came in, did you see the dividing line at the gate of the village?"

"Yes."

"Everyone, anyone who tried to escape, who crossed the line, died."
