Summoning Infinite Movie
Chapter 55 The Last Homeland
"Oh, so it's a guest!" The landlady suddenly became enthusiastic, "It's not common before, it's unfamiliar! Let Achi take you around!"
Jiang Jibei could clearly see the change in her expression.
The original landlord aunt was impatient and irritable, and she smiled very formulaic when she saw Jiang Jibei, until she took a closer look at Jiang Jibei's appearance—perhaps because she thought Jiang Jibei looked like a rich man, so she put the stiff The smile softened abruptly.
Jiang Jibei put on a polite smile at the right time: "Please, Auntie."
The landlord's aunt was still smiling "hehehe": "I invite everyone to dinner tonight, you must come to eat!"
"Definitely." Jiang Jibei also smiled politely.
The mask on Vanity Fair, no one can match him.
In the corridor, "Hey hey hey" and "Ah ha ha ha" kept ringing for a moment.
In the end, Jiang Jibei was the first to say "Then let's go down first", and he and Gu Chi were able to leave this laughter echoing gallery.
Coming downstairs, Gu Chi introduced to Jiang Jibei: "On the first floor of the apartment, there is a tram shop and a canteen opened by our family. My parents took care of it before, and they were supposed to take over when I came back. I didn't expect... ..."
This happened unexpectedly.
Jiang Jibei nodded knowingly.
Walking out of the apartment door, Jiang Jibei turned around and looked at the panoramic view of the apartment.
The layout of the first floor is different from that of the upper floor, the whole floor is divided into two halves, one half is the landlord's house, and the other half, as Gu Chi said, is a small shop and a tram shop.
The door of the canteen was open, and it looked empty. There were not many things on the shelves, and there were a few cardboard boxes lying on the ground.
Perhaps after receiving the alarm, the landlord and his wife quickly moved out the food and daily necessities stored inside.
Noticing Jiang Jibei's gaze, Gu Chi smiled helplessly: "Just in case, my parents put away all the stockpiled goods. But if you need anything, you can come to me for it."
After all, there is a shortage of supplies, and no one wants to cut off water and food, let alone these things belong to his family.
"Understood." Jiang Jibei said, "By the way, I remember a row of bungalows on the side of the road. Are those shops?"
"Yes, there are some small restaurants, milk tea shops and supermarkets." Gu Chi replied, and then sighed, "Are you really a student of this school? Did you not leave the school before you moved out? It's too nerdy. People still need to exercise more ah."
Jiang Jibei smiled, but did not answer.
After passing the canteen, there is a tram shop.
A middle-aged man was sitting in front of the counter smoking a cigarette. When he saw Jiang Jibei and Gu Chi walking to the door of the garage, a smile appeared on the man's face: "You're coming?"
"Dad," Gu Chi called out when he saw the middle-aged man, with a somewhat complaining tone, "Didn't I tell you to stay at home and not come out? The store is not safe either."
"Isn't this just being bored in the room all day, and I'm suffocated. Come out to get some air." The landlord said, his eyes fell on Jiang Jibei's face, "This is..."
"Hello, Uncle Landlord, I'm from 406." Jiang Jibei smiled at the man, and at the same time glanced at the tramway.
He made a rough count and found that there were more than a dozen or twenty battery cars parked inside, and there was a closed door at the back of the garage, and he didn't know what was behind it.
"I remember you. Your hair color is very special. I showed you the house at that time." The landlord stared at him for a while, showing a suddenly realized expression, "You don't go out often, do you? I don't think I've seen it much. you."
"Yeah." Jiang Jibei turned his gaze back, "I've also been at home for a long time, and I want to come down and get some air."
"Look, everyone is panicking." The landlord immediately said to Gu Chi, "It's been a week, and I haven't even seen a monster..."
"Dad." Gu Chi frowned helplessly.
"Ok, ok, ok." The landlord said, "I'll sit for another 2 minutes, and I'll go home right away."
"Is this tram leased to tenants?" Jiang Jibei turned to ask Gu Chi.
Gu Chi went to the counter and dragged his own father: "You can come out—yes, but usually there will be students and nearby villagers come to rent, after all, this is in the mountains, there are only two buses to go out, it is more convenient to ride a battery car .”
"I see."
"I'll excuse you first." Gu Chi pushed the landlord out of the tramway, turned his head and said to Jiang Jibei apologetically, "Take a breath, you can come to me anytime if you need anything."
"Okay, thanks."
Seeing them pushing and shoving into the house, Jiang Jibei stretched his waist, walked into the garage a few steps, turned around and observed the front yard.
The courtyard wall in the front yard of the apartment is very high, and the top of the courtyard wall is covered with pieces of anti-theft broken glass.
The place of passage is two closed iron gates, which have been locked.Although Gu Chi said that he reinforced the iron door, Jiang Jibei couldn't see how it was reinforced—if the wire that bound the two doorknobs counted.
In short, it looks like a cheap cheap product of poor quality, and it looks too fragile to be vulnerable.
The yard is not small, and there is a parking shed in which some bicycles and battery cars are parked, as well as three public washing machines.
Outside the parking shed, there is a small piece of land next to the fence, which is the cabbage, onion and garlic grown by the landlord himself, and the growth is very gratifying.
Beyond that is a very antique-looking van and some farm tools, as well as a few bags of lime and a pile of bricks randomly stacked in the corner.
Standing at the door of the apartment, you can look over the courtyard wall and see the opposite teaching building from a distance.
Jiang Jibei calculated in his mind that it should not take much time to walk from here to the school.
I just don't know what to expect along the way.
When Gu Chi pushed the landlord into the house, the landlord's aunt also came down.
She entered the house, closed the door, and made a "bang" sound.
Later, Jiang Jibei heard Gu Chi's voice: "Dad, Mom, let's invite the tenant down for dinner tonight."
The landlord's voice was very loud, and it sounded like a voice from the village: "Your mother and I don't think it's appropriate to invite them to dinner at this time."
The landlord's aunt's voice was indistinct: "That's right, the village committee informed us that we are waiting for rescue, not to mention the rescue team, and we haven't even seen the monster... No one knows how long it will take."
Standing in the tramway and unable to hear clearly, Jiang Jibei did not hesitate to go to the entrance of the canteen and eavesdrop on other people's walls.
Gu Chi's voice sounded a little helpless: "Have you ever thought about what would happen to these tenants if you were really trapped in this apartment with no water or food and our fellow villagers are fine?"
Will grab, Jiang Jibei replied in his heart.
The landlady was silent for a while: "...rob us?"
"Yes. Instead of waiting for them to do it themselves, why don't we take the initiative to ease the relationship." Gu Chi said, "When I said invite them down for dinner, I didn't just invite them to dinner, but I wanted to use this to count the number of existing tenants."
The landlord was quiet for a while before asking, "What do you think you should do?"
Gu Chi said: "Isn't that store in our house stocked with goods?"
Jiang Jibei glanced at the commissary again. There wasn't much food to use, but there were a lot of useless things.
The landlord's voice could be heard clearly: "Yes, when the alarm came, your mother and I moved all the food and supplies... Now there are some insignificant things left, do you want to..."
"That can't be given to them." The landlord's aunt hurriedly said, "If something happens, our family will depend on it for survival."
Jiang Jibei listened to the music, something really happened, you have food and others have fists, you are other people's granary.
He decided to hide the news that there was food in his house.
"Mom, listen to me first." Gu Chi said patiently, "Isn't there still some food that is about to expire? We can distribute these to the tenants. I think they will save food for themselves if they have food in stock. .At least, for the time being, the attention will not be directed at our family."
Hey, this is too much to underestimate the evil of human nature.
Gu Chi's innocent speech made Jiang Jibei, who was listening, smile.
When water and food are cut off and there is no certainty when they will be rescued, the more food stored, the better. How could anyone think too much.
The supplies of the landlord's family will definitely become lambs in the mouth of the wolves, and they will not be able to keep them.
"But..." The landlord became hesitant now, "Your mother and I..."
"What's wrong?" Gu Chi asked patiently.
The landlord hesitated for a while before saying: "A few days ago, your mother and I sold expired food to several tenants at a high price..."
"What?" Gu Chi's voice sounded surprised, "How high is the price?"
"It's five times higher..." The landlady's voice became weak.
Gu Chi hissed: "Why don't you discuss it with me?"
"Your father won't let me tell you, for fear that you will be angry if you find out..."
Jiang Jibei also crossed his arms and smiled in surprise.
This kind of behavior of taking advantage of the fire to drive up prices, not to mention morality and immorality, their family must be hated by others.
Isn't this killing it?
Gu Chi was silent for a while, and asked, "Who did you sell it to?"
The landlord's aunt tried hard to recall: "You are uncle Bao, a young man in the daily rental house on the second floor..."
"Uncle Bao? That's our old neighbor." Gu Chi's tone sounded extremely helpless, "This matter is a bit tricky. If we take the initiative to distribute it to others, it will be a good deed. Not to mention everyone, at least it will One or two remember our kindness."
Speaking of this, he paused, and then continued: "However, we sold expired food to others at a high price, and we have already made enemies with them, and now we take the initiative to distribute it to other people... You said, the people who spent money before What will you think of us?"
The landlord knew that he had done something wrong, and sighed: "Oh... your mother and I are confused. The end is done, what should we do now?"
"Dad, Mom, don't worry, I'll find a way." Gu Chi comforted them, "I'll go to the group to tell everyone, invite them to come down for dinner, and relax."
Jiang Jibei took out his mobile phone and saw him sending a message in the group: "Everyone, my parents plan to invite everyone to dinner tonight. The time is 19:[-]. If you want to come, you can report the number in the group. I will count the number of people." .”
After a while, the group members replied one after another.
"Wow, that's great! Thank you, uncles and aunts! 408 Li Le and Wei Lian, the two of us."
"I'll come too, I'm from 409."
"306 alone, thank you."
According to the conversation with Gu Chi just now and the structure of the house, not all the tenants are in this group.
It is true that we can only use the opportunity of the dinner to understand the composition of the existing personnel.
Thinking of this, Jiang Jibei also replied: "406, Chen Ji."
Just a few seconds after the message was sent, the message of pork belly chicken popped up: "307, Zhu Duji."
She must have seen Jiang Jibei's name before she replied.
Jiang Jibei clicked on her avatar profile, selected "add to address book", then returned to the group chat, and changed her group nickname to "406-Chen Ji".
Someone asked: "Is everyone in the apartment in this group?"
Gu Chi replied: "No, there are only a few people. I will knock on the door and invite them one by one later."
Jiang Jibei opened the software address book and flipped through the contacts.
Except for the apartment complex, it is still blank.
He opened the dynamic homepage, refreshed it, and found that a dynamic popped up.
This news was posted by the school's public service account a week ago.
"Urgent report! After receiving the notice, a large number of murderous monsters suddenly appeared in this city. Students, please return to the dormitory quickly, close the doors and windows, don't leave at will, and wait patiently for rescue!! The school will regularly distribute food in dormitory units. Off-campus Please return to school immediately, or take refuge in place, and wait for the school to notify!!"
After sending this notice, this account has never updated any news.
Jiang Jibei backed out, only to find that Pork Belly Chicken had passed his friend request.
He enters "19:10" into the dialog and presses send.
Pork belly chicken did not reply.
Jiang Jibei put his mobile phone in his pocket, walked past the landlord's house lightly, and walked up the stairs.
When he got home, he counted the remaining food and water in his room.
In addition to two boxes of mineral water and two boxes of instant noodles, there is actually a box of chocolates.
There is no problem eating these things for ten and a half months. The diet problem has been completely resolved, and the vision problem and safety problem are next.
At 18:40, Jiang Jibei heard the sound of doors opening and conversations coming from the corridor.
It seems that someone has already gone downstairs in advance.
At 19:08, Jiang Jibei left the room and walked down the stairs.
A familiar figure stood in front of the gate.
Pork Belly Chicken was dressed neatly in the movie, without any trace of smoky makeup, and looked extremely serious: "I wanted to come up to find you, but I didn't expect that there was a gate guard stopping here."
"Are you a student?" Jiang Jibei swiped his card, and the access control made a beep, and he opened the door, "Live alone?"
Hearing Jiang Jibei's question, Pork Belly Chicken's expression was a little strange: "No, I seem to..."
She looked as if she had something to hide.
Jiang Jibei raised his eyebrows.
"It seems to be a client." Pork Belly Chicken said, with a distorted expression of self-doubt on his face, "Rich women are interested in the kind who drive to college towns to prostitute male students."
Jiang Jibei looked at the chicken with pork belly and confirmed that she was not joking: "...?"
"When I woke up, I found myself lying on the bed with a man." Pork Belly Chicken crossed his hands and said while recalling, "Then he asked me shyly, are you satisfied with his service last night?"
Jiang Jibei: "..."
Jiang Jibei: "Then are you satisfied?"
"I don't know!" The pig belly chicken was angry, "I can answer this question if I can be there one day earlier."
Jiang Jibei put on a sincere expression and suggested: "Since you are a client, you must fulfill your duties as a client. You can work hard and see if you can answer this question tonight."
"I think the client's responsibility is to pay the money after the prostitution, and I will." The pork belly chicken gave Jiang Jibei a thoughtful look, "The man looked shocked when he saw me, and he couldn't answer his question, so he just gave it to me." Gone sadly. Don't tell me, he was quite coquettish like that—I never saw him again after that."
"Never seen again" in normal life is a simple dewy marriage, and then never see each other again.But in horror movies, it always looks more ominous, as if someone will be exposed to the street in the next second.
Jiang Jibei questioned: "He went out and didn't come back?"
"That's not true," Pork Belly Chicken shook his head, "I woke up today, at this time, he will not go out no matter how courageous he is. I heard the movement in the corridor, and guessed that he probably asked the landlord to open a room." New house."
As she spoke, the screen of her mobile phone lit up.
Jiang Jibei followed the pig belly chicken's line of sight and found that she had set an alarm clock for [-]:[-] p.m.
The pork belly chicken slid up and turned off the alarm clock, signaling Jiang Jibei to go down together.
Before they got downstairs, they heard the sound of tables and chairs being dragged in the landlord's room.
The stairs of the apartment are not connected to the landlord's house, but there is a separate passage beside the building. At the end of the passage, there is an iron door that is stuck with bricks.
"Everyone says there are monsters, who has ever seen a monster!" The middle-aged man's loud voice sounded from the other side of the passage wall.
Jiang Jibei recognized that it was the landlord's voice.
Immediately afterwards, there was a burst of discussion in the room.
Unable to hear clearly through the wall, Jiang Jibei and Pork Belly Chicken quickened their pace, turned right around the door of the stairs, and walked towards the door of the landlord's house.
Walking to the hall, they saw that more than [-] people had already entered the house.
"It seems that the 20 people in the group are only a part." Jiang Jibei lowered his voice.
Pork Belly Chicken also looked at the crowd: "Could it be that the crowd is all...?"
She didn't finish her sentence, but Jiang Jibei realized it. She wanted to say that all the people in the group might be experiencers.
"It's hard to say." He responded succinctly.
The explanation that the group is full of experiencers is certainly worthy of reference, but it cannot explain why Gu Chi is in it.
Although it cannot be completely ruled out that Gu Chi is played by Chi Xian, but if he can act like that, Chi Xian is not far from becoming a movie king.
If you love acting so much, why didn't you become an actor in his movies?
People in the room are still discussing things about the monster.
From their discussion, Jiang Jibei heard that none of them had seen the rumored murderous monster.
"Why don't we go out and have a look together, maybe the monster is gone?" A bold person suggested.
The room was silent for a few seconds.
"The notice says there will be monsters, and there will be monsters. Follow the instructions from above." Someone said in a bad tone.
Jiang Jibei glanced at the speaker with a bad tone.
The person who spoke was a strong man. He stood upright with his arms folded, and his tone of voice was full of confidence in the existence of the monster.
Jiang Jibei made a judgment, so sure of the existence of the monster, this person is either an experiencer or a member of the military and police.
The experiencers will understand that they are in the essence of a horror movie, and the words and deeds of military and police personnel will have the habit of prohibiting orders.
Everyone was quiet for a few more seconds, and a person with even less eyesight opened his mouth: "Maybe something will happen tonight."
Thanks to the speech of this friend who doesn't speak auspicious words, the scene became even more embarrassing.
Gu Chi stopped what he was doing, trying to smooth things over.
It's a pity that in such a situation of isolation and besieged by all sides, he couldn't say anything good. He stuck there for a long time, and finally let out "Ahahaha".
Jiang Jibei looked at the face that was exactly the same as Chi Xian: "..."
Gu Chi looked left and right, and found Jiang Jibei and Pork Belly Chicken standing at the door, and hurriedly greeted them: "You are here, sit, you sit, everyone sit—"
Someone whispered: "The chairs haven't been set up yet, so why sit?"
Gu Chi: "..."
The landlord knew that he was the one who started the topic about monsters. Seeing that the atmosphere was a little weird, he quickly changed the subject: "Canned fruit, come and eat canned fruit, there are not many dollars left!"
Pork belly chicken saw Gu Chi's performance, although he was a little confused, but seeing Jiang Jibei's face was normal, he guessed that they had their plan, so they didn't pursue it.
She took a few steps to the table: "Oh, are there any more yellow peaches? Let me have some."
Jiang Jibei walked up slowly, taking the opportunity to look at the layout of the landlord's house.
The dining room of the landlord's house is very large, connected to the living room.
There is a big round table in the hall, and beside the big round table is a square table that doesn't match the furniture very well. It looks like a spare table that was temporarily moved or assembled.
A dozen people stood around the big table, eating unpacked snacks.
Gu Chi was busy moving the chair up and down, and several people helped him.
At this time, the landlady came out of the kitchen with a large pot of soup: "Everyone has worked hard, hard work!"
After making the decision to entertain everyone, she became more calm and polite to everyone, as if she really wanted everyone to get along well.
"You've worked hard too! You've worked hard!" Several people seemed to be very familiar with the landlord's family, and when they saw the landlord's aunt serve the dishes, they actively held the table.
After a while, Gu Chi arranged the chairs neatly beside the table, and also arranged the chairs beside the table.
Everyone sat down.
Jiang Jibei glanced at the dishes on the table, maybe because of the lack of supplies, the dishes served by the landlord and his wife were very simple.
Counting carefully, there are only a few servings of cabbage, a few servings of pork, a chopped boiled chicken, and a pot of egg drop soup.
Although the ingredients don’t seem to be many, the recipes are different. There are steamed, boiled, stewed, and fried. I think the landlord has made the best effort to prepare this dinner.
Everyone present also understood that after being trapped in the apartment for a week, it was not easy to get these things out, so not many people complained.
But some people still think that the boiled chicken looks faded: "Auntie, did you dip the dish?"
The landlord aunt brought out a large pot of white rice from the kitchen, and she put the rice on the table to serve the guests.
When she heard the question, she replied: "There are garlic and shallots in the field outside, so you are welcome to eat whatever flavor you want, and you can make it yourself in the kitchen."
"Okay." The dipper went out of the house, grabbed a few scallions, and borrowed the kitchen to make dipping sauce.
"Stuck here, I know it's not easy for everyone." The landlord's aunt served soup for everyone, "Inviting everyone to dinner, I want everyone to make friends and tide over the difficulties together—"
In the middle of speaking, a loud roar suddenly came from the kitchen, interrupting her: "Damn!"
Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of a kitchen knife falling to the ground and the sound of hitting the cabinet door.
Jiang Jibei was sitting close to the kitchen. When he heard the movement, his expression changed, and he quickly got up and opened the kitchen door.
The dipper was sitting on the kitchen floor with his back against the cabinet.
In his hand was a kitchen knife with chopped green onions still stuck to it. Beside the kitchen knife were sauce bottles that had fallen on the ground. There were large bamboo and wood lids next to the sauce bottles.
The sauce was spilled all over the floor, and it looked like there was a pool of black blood on the floor in the kitchen.
"Are you okay?" Jiang Jibei quickly looked at the whole body of the dipper - no injuries.
"I'm fine," the dish dipter shrank back, pointing to the water tank next to the stove, "but I think it's a big deal."
"What's wrong?" Others followed Jiang Jibei to the kitchen door.
Jiang Jibei looked up at the stove, and the water jar that should have been covered by a bamboo and wood lid had been uncovered, and most of the water inside had been scooped out.
Looking from the kitchen door, the water tank looks like a dark well.
The landlord also came to the door of the kitchen. Seeing the person dipping the dishes tremblingly pointing at the water tank, he asked inexplicably, "This is the mineral water tank we use for cooking. What's the matter? There are bugs?"
Jiang Jibei frowned and strode into the kitchen.
He walked to the tank, picked up the ladle, and scooped it into the tank.
"Brother, this is not good, it's really not good..." Although the dipper was scared, when he saw Jiang Jibei walking in front of the water tank, he immediately picked up the kitchen knife, twisted his buttocks and rubbed it against the side of the water tank, making a knife. A posture ready to attack.
Jiang Jibei took the water ladle and stirred it in the water tank. Suddenly, he felt that the water ladle touched a soft foreign object.
He grabbed the ladle tightly and scooped up the foreign object.
Seeing the thing that was scooped up clearly, the person dipping the dish directly greeted the foreign object with a kitchen knife: "Ah—fuck!"
Shocked by the dish dipper's kitchen knife, the water ladle was detached from Jiang Jibei's hand, and the foreign objects picked up by the water ladle also fell to the ground.
The dipper knocked away the crowd who came to watch at the kitchen door, and dodged out of the kitchen like hell.
The people outside the kitchen door saw the things fished out of the water tank clearly, and they couldn't help screaming in horror: "Ahhh!"
It was a cold blue arm covered with dense eyes.
After being slashed, the eyes on the arm were all closed, and then slowly opened again.
After countless eyes rolled around a few times, they focused on Jiang Jibei in the kitchen.
They blinked slowly.
Suddenly, Leng Lan's arm twitched violently.
It struggled and turned over, and with its palms facing the ground, it crawled towards Jiang Jibei like a snake!
The author has something to say: Ah Xian is coming!
Jiang Jibei could clearly see the change in her expression.
The original landlord aunt was impatient and irritable, and she smiled very formulaic when she saw Jiang Jibei, until she took a closer look at Jiang Jibei's appearance—perhaps because she thought Jiang Jibei looked like a rich man, so she put the stiff The smile softened abruptly.
Jiang Jibei put on a polite smile at the right time: "Please, Auntie."
The landlord's aunt was still smiling "hehehe": "I invite everyone to dinner tonight, you must come to eat!"
"Definitely." Jiang Jibei also smiled politely.
The mask on Vanity Fair, no one can match him.
In the corridor, "Hey hey hey" and "Ah ha ha ha" kept ringing for a moment.
In the end, Jiang Jibei was the first to say "Then let's go down first", and he and Gu Chi were able to leave this laughter echoing gallery.
Coming downstairs, Gu Chi introduced to Jiang Jibei: "On the first floor of the apartment, there is a tram shop and a canteen opened by our family. My parents took care of it before, and they were supposed to take over when I came back. I didn't expect... ..."
This happened unexpectedly.
Jiang Jibei nodded knowingly.
Walking out of the apartment door, Jiang Jibei turned around and looked at the panoramic view of the apartment.
The layout of the first floor is different from that of the upper floor, the whole floor is divided into two halves, one half is the landlord's house, and the other half, as Gu Chi said, is a small shop and a tram shop.

"Understood." Jiang Jibei said, "By the way, I remember a row of bungalows on the side of the road. Are those shops?"
"Yes, there are some small restaurants, milk tea shops and supermarkets." Gu Chi replied, and then sighed, "Are you really a student of this school? Did you not leave the school before you moved out? It's too nerdy. People still need to exercise more ah."
Jiang Jibei smiled, but did not answer.
After passing the canteen, there is a tram shop.
A middle-aged man was sitting in front of the counter smoking a cigarette. When he saw Jiang Jibei and Gu Chi walking to the door of the garage, a smile appeared on the man's face: "You're coming?"
"Dad," Gu Chi called out when he saw the middle-aged man, with a somewhat complaining tone, "Didn't I tell you to stay at home and not come out? The store is not safe either."
"Isn't this just being bored in the room all day, and I'm suffocated. Come out to get some air." The landlord said, his eyes fell on Jiang Jibei's face, "This is..."
"Hello, Uncle Landlord, I'm from 406." Jiang Jibei smiled at the man, and at the same time glanced at the tramway.
He made a rough count and found that there were more than a dozen or twenty battery cars parked inside, and there was a closed door at the back of the garage, and he didn't know what was behind it.
"I remember you. Your hair color is very special. I showed you the house at that time." The landlord stared at him for a while, showing a suddenly realized expression, "You don't go out often, do you? I don't think I've seen it much. you."
"Yeah." Jiang Jibei turned his gaze back, "I've also been at home for a long time, and I want to come down and get some air."
"Look, everyone is panicking." The landlord immediately said to Gu Chi, "It's been a week, and I haven't even seen a monster..."
"Dad." Gu Chi frowned helplessly.
"Ok, ok, ok." The landlord said, "I'll sit for another 2 minutes, and I'll go home right away."
"Is this tram leased to tenants?" Jiang Jibei turned to ask Gu Chi.
Gu Chi went to the counter and dragged his own father: "You can come out—yes, but usually there will be students and nearby villagers come to rent, after all, this is in the mountains, there are only two buses to go out, it is more convenient to ride a battery car .”
"I see."
"I'll excuse you first." Gu Chi pushed the landlord out of the tramway, turned his head and said to Jiang Jibei apologetically, "Take a breath, you can come to me anytime if you need anything."
"Okay, thanks."
Seeing them pushing and shoving into the house, Jiang Jibei stretched his waist, walked into the garage a few steps, turned around and observed the front yard.
The courtyard wall in the front yard of the apartment is very high, and the top of the courtyard wall is covered with pieces of anti-theft broken glass.
The place of passage is two closed iron gates, which have been locked.Although Gu Chi said that he reinforced the iron door, Jiang Jibei couldn't see how it was reinforced—if the wire that bound the two doorknobs counted.
In short, it looks like a cheap cheap product of poor quality, and it looks too fragile to be vulnerable.
The yard is not small, and there is a parking shed in which some bicycles and battery cars are parked, as well as three public washing machines.
Outside the parking shed, there is a small piece of land next to the fence, which is the cabbage, onion and garlic grown by the landlord himself, and the growth is very gratifying.
Beyond that is a very antique-looking van and some farm tools, as well as a few bags of lime and a pile of bricks randomly stacked in the corner.
Standing at the door of the apartment, you can look over the courtyard wall and see the opposite teaching building from a distance.
Jiang Jibei calculated in his mind that it should not take much time to walk from here to the school.
I just don't know what to expect along the way.
When Gu Chi pushed the landlord into the house, the landlord's aunt also came down.
She entered the house, closed the door, and made a "bang" sound.

"Yes. Instead of waiting for them to do it themselves, why don't we take the initiative to ease the relationship." Gu Chi said, "When I said invite them down for dinner, I didn't just invite them to dinner, but I wanted to use this to count the number of existing tenants."
The landlord was quiet for a while before asking, "What do you think you should do?"
Gu Chi said: "Isn't that store in our house stocked with goods?"
Jiang Jibei glanced at the commissary again. There wasn't much food to use, but there were a lot of useless things.
The landlord's voice could be heard clearly: "Yes, when the alarm came, your mother and I moved all the food and supplies... Now there are some insignificant things left, do you want to..."
"That can't be given to them." The landlord's aunt hurriedly said, "If something happens, our family will depend on it for survival."
Jiang Jibei listened to the music, something really happened, you have food and others have fists, you are other people's granary.
He decided to hide the news that there was food in his house.
"Mom, listen to me first." Gu Chi said patiently, "Isn't there still some food that is about to expire? We can distribute these to the tenants. I think they will save food for themselves if they have food in stock. .At least, for the time being, the attention will not be directed at our family."
Hey, this is too much to underestimate the evil of human nature.
Gu Chi's innocent speech made Jiang Jibei, who was listening, smile.
When water and food are cut off and there is no certainty when they will be rescued, the more food stored, the better. How could anyone think too much.
The supplies of the landlord's family will definitely become lambs in the mouth of the wolves, and they will not be able to keep them.
"But..." The landlord became hesitant now, "Your mother and I..."
"What's wrong?" Gu Chi asked patiently.
The landlord hesitated for a while before saying: "A few days ago, your mother and I sold expired food to several tenants at a high price..."
"What?" Gu Chi's voice sounded surprised, "How high is the price?"
"It's five times higher..." The landlady's voice became weak.
Gu Chi hissed: "Why don't you discuss it with me?"
"Your father won't let me tell you, for fear that you will be angry if you find out..."
Jiang Jibei also crossed his arms and smiled in surprise.
This kind of behavior of taking advantage of the fire to drive up prices, not to mention morality and immorality, their family must be hated by others.
Isn't this killing it?
Gu Chi was silent for a while, and asked, "Who did you sell it to?"
The landlord's aunt tried hard to recall: "You are uncle Bao, a young man in the daily rental house on the second floor..."
"Uncle Bao? That's our old neighbor." Gu Chi's tone sounded extremely helpless, "This matter is a bit tricky. If we take the initiative to distribute it to others, it will be a good deed. Not to mention everyone, at least it will One or two remember our kindness."
Speaking of this, he paused, and then continued: "However, we sold expired food to others at a high price, and we have already made enemies with them, and now we take the initiative to distribute it to other people... You said, the people who spent money before What will you think of us?"
The landlord knew that he had done something wrong, and sighed: "Oh... your mother and I are confused. The end is done, what should we do now?"
"Dad, Mom, don't worry, I'll find a way." Gu Chi comforted them, "I'll go to the group to tell everyone, invite them to come down for dinner, and relax."
Jiang Jibei took out his mobile phone and saw him sending a message in the group: "Everyone, my parents plan to invite everyone to dinner tonight. The time is 19:[-]. If you want to come, you can report the number in the group. I will count the number of people." .”
After a while, the group members replied one after another.
"Wow, that's great! Thank you, uncles and aunts! 408 Li Le and Wei Lian, the two of us."
"I'll come too, I'm from 409."
"306 alone, thank you."
According to the conversation with Gu Chi just now and the structure of the house, not all the tenants are in this group.
It is true that we can only use the opportunity of the dinner to understand the composition of the existing personnel.
Thinking of this, Jiang Jibei also replied: "406, Chen Ji."
Just a few seconds after the message was sent, the message of pork belly chicken popped up: "307, Zhu Duji."
She must have seen Jiang Jibei's name before she replied.
Jiang Jibei clicked on her avatar profile, selected "add to address book", then returned to the group chat, and changed her group nickname to "406-Chen Ji".
Someone asked: "Is everyone in the apartment in this group?"
Gu Chi replied: "No, there are only a few people. I will knock on the door and invite them one by one later."
Jiang Jibei opened the software address book and flipped through the contacts.
Except for the apartment complex, it is still blank.
He opened the dynamic homepage, refreshed it, and found that a dynamic popped up.
This news was posted by the school's public service account a week ago.
"Urgent report! After receiving the notice, a large number of murderous monsters suddenly appeared in this city. Students, please return to the dormitory quickly, close the doors and windows, don't leave at will, and wait patiently for rescue!! The school will regularly distribute food in dormitory units. Off-campus Please return to school immediately, or take refuge in place, and wait for the school to notify!!"
After sending this notice, this account has never updated any news.
Jiang Jibei backed out, only to find that Pork Belly Chicken had passed his friend request.
He enters "19:10" into the dialog and presses send.
Pork belly chicken did not reply.
Jiang Jibei put his mobile phone in his pocket, walked past the landlord's house lightly, and walked up the stairs.
When he got home, he counted the remaining food and water in his room.
In addition to two boxes of mineral water and two boxes of instant noodles, there is actually a box of chocolates.
There is no problem eating these things for ten and a half months. The diet problem has been completely resolved, and the vision problem and safety problem are next.
At 18:40, Jiang Jibei heard the sound of doors opening and conversations coming from the corridor.
It seems that someone has already gone downstairs in advance.
At 19:08, Jiang Jibei left the room and walked down the stairs.
A familiar figure stood in front of the gate.
Pork Belly Chicken was dressed neatly in the movie, without any trace of smoky makeup, and looked extremely serious: "I wanted to come up to find you, but I didn't expect that there was a gate guard stopping here."
"Are you a student?" Jiang Jibei swiped his card, and the access control made a beep, and he opened the door, "Live alone?"
Hearing Jiang Jibei's question, Pork Belly Chicken's expression was a little strange: "No, I seem to..."
She looked as if she had something to hide.
Jiang Jibei raised his eyebrows.
"It seems to be a client." Pork Belly Chicken said, with a distorted expression of self-doubt on his face, "Rich women are interested in the kind who drive to college towns to prostitute male students."
Jiang Jibei looked at the chicken with pork belly and confirmed that she was not joking: "...?"
"When I woke up, I found myself lying on the bed with a man." Pork Belly Chicken crossed his hands and said while recalling, "Then he asked me shyly, are you satisfied with his service last night?"
Jiang Jibei: "..."
Jiang Jibei: "Then are you satisfied?"
"I don't know!" The pig belly chicken was angry, "I can answer this question if I can be there one day earlier."
Jiang Jibei put on a sincere expression and suggested: "Since you are a client, you must fulfill your duties as a client. You can work hard and see if you can answer this question tonight."
"I think the client's responsibility is to pay the money after the prostitution, and I will." The pork belly chicken gave Jiang Jibei a thoughtful look, "The man looked shocked when he saw me, and he couldn't answer his question, so he just gave it to me." Gone sadly. Don't tell me, he was quite coquettish like that—I never saw him again after that."
"Never seen again" in normal life is a simple dewy marriage, and then never see each other again.But in horror movies, it always looks more ominous, as if someone will be exposed to the street in the next second.
Jiang Jibei questioned: "He went out and didn't come back?"
"That's not true," Pork Belly Chicken shook his head, "I woke up today, at this time, he will not go out no matter how courageous he is. I heard the movement in the corridor, and guessed that he probably asked the landlord to open a room." New house."
As she spoke, the screen of her mobile phone lit up.
Jiang Jibei followed the pig belly chicken's line of sight and found that she had set an alarm clock for [-]:[-] p.m.
The pork belly chicken slid up and turned off the alarm clock, signaling Jiang Jibei to go down together.
Before they got downstairs, they heard the sound of tables and chairs being dragged in the landlord's room.
The stairs of the apartment are not connected to the landlord's house, but there is a separate passage beside the building. At the end of the passage, there is an iron door that is stuck with bricks.
"Everyone says there are monsters, who has ever seen a monster!" The middle-aged man's loud voice sounded from the other side of the passage wall.
Jiang Jibei recognized that it was the landlord's voice.
Immediately afterwards, there was a burst of discussion in the room.
Unable to hear clearly through the wall, Jiang Jibei and Pork Belly Chicken quickened their pace, turned right around the door of the stairs, and walked towards the door of the landlord's house.
Walking to the hall, they saw that more than [-] people had already entered the house.
"It seems that the 20 people in the group are only a part." Jiang Jibei lowered his voice.
Pork Belly Chicken also looked at the crowd: "Could it be that the crowd is all...?"
She didn't finish her sentence, but Jiang Jibei realized it. She wanted to say that all the people in the group might be experiencers.
"It's hard to say." He responded succinctly.
The explanation that the group is full of experiencers is certainly worthy of reference, but it cannot explain why Gu Chi is in it.
Although it cannot be completely ruled out that Gu Chi is played by Chi Xian, but if he can act like that, Chi Xian is not far from becoming a movie king.
If you love acting so much, why didn't you become an actor in his movies?
People in the room are still discussing things about the monster.
From their discussion, Jiang Jibei heard that none of them had seen the rumored murderous monster.
"Why don't we go out and have a look together, maybe the monster is gone?" A bold person suggested.
The room was silent for a few seconds.
"The notice says there will be monsters, and there will be monsters. Follow the instructions from above." Someone said in a bad tone.
Jiang Jibei glanced at the speaker with a bad tone.
The person who spoke was a strong man. He stood upright with his arms folded, and his tone of voice was full of confidence in the existence of the monster.
Jiang Jibei made a judgment, so sure of the existence of the monster, this person is either an experiencer or a member of the military and police.
The experiencers will understand that they are in the essence of a horror movie, and the words and deeds of military and police personnel will have the habit of prohibiting orders.
Everyone was quiet for a few more seconds, and a person with even less eyesight opened his mouth: "Maybe something will happen tonight."
Thanks to the speech of this friend who doesn't speak auspicious words, the scene became even more embarrassing.
Gu Chi stopped what he was doing, trying to smooth things over.
It's a pity that in such a situation of isolation and besieged by all sides, he couldn't say anything good. He stuck there for a long time, and finally let out "Ahahaha".
Jiang Jibei looked at the face that was exactly the same as Chi Xian: "..."
Gu Chi looked left and right, and found Jiang Jibei and Pork Belly Chicken standing at the door, and hurriedly greeted them: "You are here, sit, you sit, everyone sit—"
Someone whispered: "The chairs haven't been set up yet, so why sit?"
Gu Chi: "..."
The landlord knew that he was the one who started the topic about monsters. Seeing that the atmosphere was a little weird, he quickly changed the subject: "Canned fruit, come and eat canned fruit, there are not many dollars left!"
Pork belly chicken saw Gu Chi's performance, although he was a little confused, but seeing Jiang Jibei's face was normal, he guessed that they had their plan, so they didn't pursue it.
She took a few steps to the table: "Oh, are there any more yellow peaches? Let me have some."
Jiang Jibei walked up slowly, taking the opportunity to look at the layout of the landlord's house.
The dining room of the landlord's house is very large, connected to the living room.
There is a big round table in the hall, and beside the big round table is a square table that doesn't match the furniture very well. It looks like a spare table that was temporarily moved or assembled.
A dozen people stood around the big table, eating unpacked snacks.
Gu Chi was busy moving the chair up and down, and several people helped him.
At this time, the landlady came out of the kitchen with a large pot of soup: "Everyone has worked hard, hard work!"
After making the decision to entertain everyone, she became more calm and polite to everyone, as if she really wanted everyone to get along well.
"You've worked hard too! You've worked hard!" Several people seemed to be very familiar with the landlord's family, and when they saw the landlord's aunt serve the dishes, they actively held the table.
After a while, Gu Chi arranged the chairs neatly beside the table, and also arranged the chairs beside the table.
Everyone sat down.
Jiang Jibei glanced at the dishes on the table, maybe because of the lack of supplies, the dishes served by the landlord and his wife were very simple.
Counting carefully, there are only a few servings of cabbage, a few servings of pork, a chopped boiled chicken, and a pot of egg drop soup.
Although the ingredients don’t seem to be many, the recipes are different. There are steamed, boiled, stewed, and fried. I think the landlord has made the best effort to prepare this dinner.
Everyone present also understood that after being trapped in the apartment for a week, it was not easy to get these things out, so not many people complained.
But some people still think that the boiled chicken looks faded: "Auntie, did you dip the dish?"
The landlord aunt brought out a large pot of white rice from the kitchen, and she put the rice on the table to serve the guests.
When she heard the question, she replied: "There are garlic and shallots in the field outside, so you are welcome to eat whatever flavor you want, and you can make it yourself in the kitchen."
"Okay." The dipper went out of the house, grabbed a few scallions, and borrowed the kitchen to make dipping sauce.
"Stuck here, I know it's not easy for everyone." The landlord's aunt served soup for everyone, "Inviting everyone to dinner, I want everyone to make friends and tide over the difficulties together—"
In the middle of speaking, a loud roar suddenly came from the kitchen, interrupting her: "Damn!"
Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of a kitchen knife falling to the ground and the sound of hitting the cabinet door.
Jiang Jibei was sitting close to the kitchen. When he heard the movement, his expression changed, and he quickly got up and opened the kitchen door.
The dipper was sitting on the kitchen floor with his back against the cabinet.
In his hand was a kitchen knife with chopped green onions still stuck to it. Beside the kitchen knife were sauce bottles that had fallen on the ground. There were large bamboo and wood lids next to the sauce bottles.
The sauce was spilled all over the floor, and it looked like there was a pool of black blood on the floor in the kitchen.
"Are you okay?" Jiang Jibei quickly looked at the whole body of the dipper - no injuries.
"I'm fine," the dish dipter shrank back, pointing to the water tank next to the stove, "but I think it's a big deal."
"What's wrong?" Others followed Jiang Jibei to the kitchen door.
Jiang Jibei looked up at the stove, and the water jar that should have been covered by a bamboo and wood lid had been uncovered, and most of the water inside had been scooped out.
Looking from the kitchen door, the water tank looks like a dark well.
The landlord also came to the door of the kitchen. Seeing the person dipping the dishes tremblingly pointing at the water tank, he asked inexplicably, "This is the mineral water tank we use for cooking. What's the matter? There are bugs?"
Jiang Jibei frowned and strode into the kitchen.
He walked to the tank, picked up the ladle, and scooped it into the tank.
"Brother, this is not good, it's really not good..." Although the dipper was scared, when he saw Jiang Jibei walking in front of the water tank, he immediately picked up the kitchen knife, twisted his buttocks and rubbed it against the side of the water tank, making a knife. A posture ready to attack.
Jiang Jibei took the water ladle and stirred it in the water tank. Suddenly, he felt that the water ladle touched a soft foreign object.
He grabbed the ladle tightly and scooped up the foreign object.
Seeing the thing that was scooped up clearly, the person dipping the dish directly greeted the foreign object with a kitchen knife: "Ah—fuck!"
Shocked by the dish dipper's kitchen knife, the water ladle was detached from Jiang Jibei's hand, and the foreign objects picked up by the water ladle also fell to the ground.
The dipper knocked away the crowd who came to watch at the kitchen door, and dodged out of the kitchen like hell.
The people outside the kitchen door saw the things fished out of the water tank clearly, and they couldn't help screaming in horror: "Ahhh!"
It was a cold blue arm covered with dense eyes.
After being slashed, the eyes on the arm were all closed, and then slowly opened again.
After countless eyes rolled around a few times, they focused on Jiang Jibei in the kitchen.
They blinked slowly.
Suddenly, Leng Lan's arm twitched violently.
It struggled and turned over, and with its palms facing the ground, it crawled towards Jiang Jibei like a snake!
The author has something to say: Ah Xian is coming!
