The two looked at each other.

"I've seen you on the live broadcast." The driver surrendered first, took off his gloves, revealed the bracelet on his wrist, and voluntarily reported his family name, "He Weiyou."

Shi Yu didn't speak.

"As for calling you... Cough, it's not that I didn't react at the beginning, it's a conditioned reflex."

Shi Yu was silent.

Whose reflex is to whistle at people when they see other people on the streets surrounded by monsters?

The other party really couldn't tell if he was angry, because he had this expression most of the time, so he could only bow his head and confess: "I'm sorry, I was wrong."

Shi Yu glanced at him: "Why are you apologizing to me?"

He Weiyou also came to his senses: That's right, why is he apologizing?Not to mention that he is still someone's savior now, even if he calls out "beauty" in normal times, how can he become heinous?

Shi Yu stepped on the snow and turned the topic back to business: "Where did you go to that street just now?"

"Mountain racing track." He nodded for Youchao's motorcycle, "This is my car."

It's no wonder that the opponent has just been able to do so many drifting moves. Most of the motorcycles that can be used for competitions have been modified, and their performance cannot be compared with ordinary cars.

Shi Yu continued: "How long have you been here?"

"I didn't notice, about three or four hours?" He Weiyou said, "Anyway, when I came, there was a finished lunch box in front of me."

It was only when he said this that he remembered that it was getting dark.

The days are short in winter, and it was already close to dusk when the hospital broadcasted before. Now that the last ray of sunlight is almost gone, street lights are lit on both sides of the sidewalk.

It is definitely impossible for the two of them to sleep on the viaduct overnight, let alone the temperature issue, even if those monsters are not seen here now, if those monsters suddenly give up the street and touch them at night, it will be a disaster.

He Weiyou got back on the bike and turned on the accelerator: "Where are we going now?"

Shi Yu: "Find a place to stay first."

He Wei conditioned reflex: "Hotel?"

"The hallway rooms are too dense and it is easy to hide people. It is basically impossible to clean up all the monsters inside with only two people unless they set fire directly."

"Then the supermarket?"

"The flow of people is too dense, and there will only be more monsters than on the street; the entrance and exit are electronic gates, which cannot prevent outsiders."

"Then the store?"

"The space is small and closed, it is difficult to receive outside news, and the geographical location is easy to attack and difficult to defend."

"Then school?"

"The number of landmark buildings in this city is small, and it is difficult to find results rashly."

"Then the air-raid shelter?"

"Most have turned into underground car parks and underground malls."

"Then just find an empty apartment villa?"

"You have the key?"

"...Then where are you going?"

The motorcycle drove off the river-crossing bridge and entered the urban area. The monsters that had disappeared for nearly half an hour reappeared in the field of vision of the two of them, and then they were attracted by the sound of the huge engine and rushed to chase here.

Fortunately, when a motorcycle is driving at high speed, it is not something that a person can catch up with two legs, so the scene of thousands of troops galloping on the street did not appear before. Basically, every monster will be thrown away enough distance after catching up with it. Give up wandering on your own.

Shi Yu sat behind and watched for a while, then suddenly asked, "Which direction are you driving?"

He Weiyou was taken aback when he heard that: "Just walk in a straight line, and I don't know what road here leads to where..."

Shi Yu looked up at another sign that was getting closer: "It seems to be heading towards the mountains."

He Weiyou: "..."

He Weiyou: "Wait a minute, I'll turn around the next corner..."

Shi Yu: "No need to turn."

"?"

"It's nice to go up the mountain."

"??"

10 minute later.

The motorcycle whizzed and rolled up the weeds on both sides, and sank into the forest at a fast speed.

He Weiyou slowed down his speed, and he was still worried after the monsters behind him were completely out of sight. He still drove forward for a long distance before turning off the engine and getting out of the car.

The mountain roads are naturally not as good as the streets. There are no special sanitation workers to sweep the snow regularly. On the concrete roads, flowers and trees, and the rolling mountains in the distance, the sky and the earth are all white.

The snow under the feet almost condensed into frost, and the surroundings were extremely quiet.

"Now I know why I have to go up the mountain." He Weiyou walked forward while pushing the car, "There are all mountain roads here, no one will come up at all, and there are only cars that want to go over the mountain. Just go in and follow the city If you get rid of those, you don’t have to worry about being attacked suddenly when you get inside.”

Shi Yu didn't respond and concentrated on climbing the mountain.

"The safety problem is solved, what about eating?"

"It's hidden in the soil."

"Where's the water?"

"Hanging on a tree."

"What about external communications?"

"There are usually houses purchased by people on the mountain."

"I just found it by walking?"

Shi Yu stopped.

"What's wrong?" He Weiyou followed his gaze and opened his mouth a little bit.

There is a house in the open space about ten meters above the front, with a very old-fashioned white wall, aqua blue diamond-shaped panes, and a large cement in front of the door.

Not far away, someone has fenced a muddy field with a bamboo fence, and through the gaps, one can faintly see the vegetables growing inside.

He Weiyou was shocked.

Obviously, in reality, the mountains he has seen are not rare, but he will always turn his head and hurry on his way at the first sight of alms, and occasionally stay for a few seconds. run away.

However, this is probably the first time that "Xanadu" has been published with such an admiring gaze and even feelings.

Shi Yu glanced at it twice and then withdrew his gaze: "Let's go."

He Weiyou hurriedly pushed the motorcycle to catch up, and the wind was blowing under his feet after walking the last two meters. He looked at the vermilion lacquered door in front of him with burning eyes: "Did I knock?"

"Tuk Tuk Tuk-"

No one answered.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk-"

A voice from within shouted, "Here we come."

There were light and slow footsteps in the house, and then the door was pulled open, and the anti-theft metal chain between the two wooden doors was stretched straight.

The person who opened the door was an old woman, wearing a flowered jacket and a knitted hat on her head, her temples were half silver and white, the moonlight painted a layer of pale frost on her face, but the shadows split the wrinkles into a distinct silhouette , looking at the darkness: "Who?"

He Weiyou's mind inexplicably flashed back to the old corpse in the mountain village in the content of his divergent thoughts.

"Auntie."

The old man looked away from him and fell on the person next to him.

Shi Yu said: "The road is blocked by heavy snow, and it's dark, can I borrow a space from you?"

The old man laughed, his voice was rough and hoarse: "Young man, Auntie is no longer Auntie, you should be called Grandma at your age."

Shi Yu listened: "I'm not too young."

The old man seemed to be curious: "How old is this year?"

"24."

"That's still young. If my son gets married normally, his grandson will be about the same age as you now." The night wind was blowing, and the old man stood aside by the door, "It's cold outside, come in first."

"Thank you."

Shi Yu walked across the threshold.

He Weiyou was dazed for a while, and hurried to catch up.

The old man closed the door and directly asked, "Are you still studying?"

Shi Yu said, "Graduated."

The old man opened the drawer in front of the cabinet, and there was a rustling sound of searching for things in the dark: "Graduation, what do you do?"

"The doorman."

"That's good, I have a fixed salary, and I don't have to run around every day."

The two asked and answered, and their voices fell in the dark, empty, and cold hall.

He Weiyou began to break out in a cold sweat after the door was closed, until there was a sudden rubbing sound in his ear.

Before he yelled reflexively, there was a light source in the room.

The old man dug out the candle from the cabinet and lit it, took the match and lit it, turned his head with the candlestick in his hand, and raised his hand in the falling light.

He Weiyou's heart jumped directly into his throat: "Wait—"

Shi Yu stood next to her, bent slightly because he was talking to the old man, and looked at her at the same level.

The old man's withered hands fell on his hair, and his tone seemed to be reproachful: "The hair is all wet."

She said, "Wait a minute and I'll find you a towel, there is hot water in the backyard."

Shi Yu nodded: "Thank you."

The old man's attention shifted to He Weiyou: "By the way, what did you shout just now?"

He Weiyou: "..."

He was quick to wit: "Wait——my motorcycle will run out of battery later."

The old man squatted down again, and found a cable in the cabinet: "This is what my son used to leave here before, and he forgot to take it away. He throws it away every day."

Speaking of the word "son", the old man smiled a little in his muddy eyes, as if he was extremely proud.

He Weiyou thanked you stutteringly, and accepted it tremblingly.

There were no light bulbs installed in the backyard, so the old man gave them the candle and told them to be careful.

When Shi Yu came out with a wet towel on his head, he saw moldy mushrooms squatting outside the door.

He Weiyou said: "Beauty——no, big brother—nor, big brother."

"...You can call names."

"Shi Yu." He Weiyou finally pronounced the title correctly, "Shall we go back to the room now?"

"Yes." Shi Yu picked up the candlestick and walked back.

There was a distance of four or five meters between the backyard and the main house. The moon was covered by clouds at some point, and the light was so dim that it could hit the wall without a candle.

He Weiyou followed behind step by step, until the toe of his shoe suddenly kicked something, he jumped three feet high on the spot, and rushed forward!

...and then pounced.

Shi Yu avoided the sound of his footsteps, saw that he almost hit the wall, and stretched out his hand in time to pull him back: "Walking depends on the road."

He Wei's voice was trembling: "I, I kicked something just now! Is it, is there..."

Shi Yu took a candle and shone on the ground: "It's a tree root."

There is a tree in the yard, I don't know how old it is, the roots of the tree are coiled, and the ground is uneven.

He Wei's voice was still trembling: "But..."

Seeing him "but" for a long time, Shi Yu didn't say anything, took the candle and continued to turn around: "Let's go."

But a few steps away, the two quickly entered the kitchen.

The lights in the room were not turned on, and it was still cold, but fortunately, the wind was no longer blowing, so I didn't feel the chills on my back all the time, and He Weiyou's voice finally stopped shaking so much: "Well, don't you think it's scary here? "

Shi Yu walked behind him, and closed the kitchen door before entering the living room: "I don't think so."

He Weiyou was about to continue to say something, but just as he turned the corner, he looked up and was met with scarlet red!

A hand fell on his arm at the same time, and he jumped up instantly, shaking his arm violently: "Aw——!!!"

"Shout what?"

He Weiyou's eyes widened: "You...in front..."

"The portrait is just an altar, and red candles will be lit at night." Shi Yu withdrew her hand, "What are you afraid of?"

He Wei was speechless for a while.

Because of the moonless night?Because of the hideous forest outside the house?Because this old-looking old man lives alone in this mountain?Because compared to being chased by those bloody and bloody monsters who don't know why they exist all the way, this house is really too comfortable and unusual?Or was it simply because he watched too many horror movies in the past and was severely abused?

He pondered: "Don't you think there is something wrong with that person just now? If this house appeared when we first arrived, wouldn't it be the standard background environment for the supernatural dungeon?"

Shi Yu walked up the stairs: "You also said that if you just came here."

He Weiyou: "But..."

The stairs just passed the corner, and someone was standing on the top step condescendingly, his facial features were all in the shadows, from this angle, his eyes were almost full of lifeless whites.

"Ah ah ah ah ah--!!!"

Shi Yu grabbed his coat collar to prevent him from falling down the stairs, turned around and said, "Auntie."

The old man gave an amiable "hey" and said, "It's time to call me Grandma."

Shi Yu changed his words: "Grandma."

The wrinkles on the old man's face seemed to be stretched: "Hey, it's so late, go to bed."

Shi Yu grabbed He Weiyou's collar and went upstairs, let go, and before closing the door of the room, the other party had already escaped from the sluggish state and slipped into the crack of the door.

The old man arranged the same room for them, and there were three beds side by side inside, all of which were covered with quilts, and when he leaned over, he could smell the dusty smell of the cotton wool between the mattresses after being placed for a long time.

It's been like this for years.

Shi Yu blew out the candle, picked a bed closest to her, and lifted the quilt.Under the light, dust flew in the air, choking him and coughing twice, with a faint burning sensation in his throat.

He Weiyou chose the one closest to him without even thinking about it. He didn't care about the strange smell of the quilt, and rolled directly into the bed, wrapped himself tightly from the neck down, and closed his eyes only to find that his teeth were locked. Trembling.

The curtains of the room were drawn, and without the candlelight, you would be blind.

He lay on the bed for a long time unable to fall asleep, and did not dare to move, so he could only whisper: "Shi Yu."

"..."

"Shi Yu."

"What?"

Did He Wei hear sleepiness from his voice, and asked in surprise, "So you haven't slept yet?"

He thought he was the only one scaring himself from falling asleep.

"Can you say a few words to me?"

Shi Yu really didn't want to talk about life ideals with him at night, so she directly pulled the quilt aside to cover her head, showing a clear refusal to communicate.

It's a pity that He Weiyou didn't even dare to turn his head since he lay on the bed, and he didn't even see his rejection: "You really don't think she's scary?"

Shi Yu buried her head in the quilt, suppressed her voice and coughed twice, didn't open her eyes, and didn't argue with him again about "what's so scary", and hit the nail on the head: "You are sleeping in someone else's house now."

"..."

"No matter what her identity is, it's a matter of love if she is willing to take her in, and it's a duty if she doesn't want to. Put your own identity first."

"..."

"If you are willing to sleep on the top of the mountain, you can go out now."

"..."

He Wei closed his eyes in shame, and fell silent.

It snowed again during the night.

A ray of light suddenly came in from the window of the room, stopped after passing through the room, remained silent for a while, and then went out suddenly.
