【004】Dark side
Jiang Rong looked around dumbly.
Zhong Kui and He Pengfei began to get busy. While cleaning up the mess in the house, they pulled out yellow weeds and laid them on the ground to prepare for sleeping at night.
Zhiqing drove the car away near the broken building. When he got off the car, he could see the lonely building standing tall among a large area of artemisia. He carried out all the preparatory items in the car and saw a back standing in front of the building from afar. It should be Jiang Rong.
There were too many things I hugged, including food, sleeping bags, and other things. I couldn't take so many things away at once, so he had to dance his hands towards Jiang Rong's back, "Rongrong... come and help."
Logically, Zhiqing shouted with the wind, Jiang Rong should be able to hear it! But she just stood there motionlessly, ignoring his shouting... At this moment, Jiang Rong, who had already gone upstairs, saw Uncle Chen below waving his hand and shouting something from the window. She hurriedly said to Zhong Kui and the others: "Uncle Chen is calling me."
"Go!" Zhong Kui replied without looking back.
Jiang Rong went downstairs.
Zhiqing looked at the back wonderingly, and suddenly saw another Jiang Rong walking out of the stairs. He suspected that he was a mistake. When he rubbed his eyes hard and looked at him again, there was only one Jiang Rong, who looked at her with a smile, and waved to respond to him.
Zhiqing was suspicious, he did not read it wrong just now! What's going on?
Jiang Rong ran to him and saw his gaze staring at her back. She couldn't help but turn around and look, there was nothing behind her back! She turned around and turned around and said, "Uncle Chen, what are you looking at?"
"It's nothing." He was suspicious and slowly withdrew his gaze. He secretly denied that he might have seen it wrong just now, so he picked up a bag of things with Jiang Rong and walked towards the broken building.
The uninhabited town feels very empty. You can’t see a figure, but you can feel the existence of human breath. Night comes as scheduled, and some tiny creatures in the artemisiae begin to move.
For example, earthworms look for nutrients that suit them from the soil, and leave a bunch of feces that look like soil on the ground where they pass. Star-nosed mole, also known as digging soil, is a creature that farmers hate. They like to dig holes and have a sharp sound. The sense of smell is particularly sensitive. He Pengfei went down to pull the weeds and accidentally stepped on one, which scared him to jump high. As a result, he saw that he was a star-nosed mole.
Standing in the window in the wind, you could cross the low woods and see the side of the town... The house was simply cleaned up, and the slight sound of sleeping breaths came and went. They all rested quietly, but Zhong Kui stared at the corner of the town for a long time. There was nothing that attracted his attention at the beginning. But just when he was about to rest, a bright light suddenly appeared there, and the light shone in the sky so bright that it was shaking brightly.
How could there be a light in the uninhabited town? Could it be the truck before? This question was entangled in his heart. He had the idea of going to see it. He glanced at them sleepy and resting in the darkness. Jiang Rong leaned on the inside, Zhiqing leaned on her side as a protective person, and He Pengfei, the stupid boy, had to sleep outside with aggrieved grievance.
In the darkness, they couldn't see their faces when they were sleeping. Only Jiang Rong occasionally made a sleep sound. The girl should be more delicate. In this difficult environment, she must not have a good sleep. She looked at them silently for a while, but it was not easy to be alarmed, so she decisively left quietly and touched her step by step and went downstairs.
Walking in the uneven wormwood bushes, I stepped on something from time to time, and made a squeaking sound from fleeing in panic. Zhong Kui ignored it. He was very familiar with this sound. Moles survived by eating grass roots. In this late spring season, there should be no snakes. The cold wind was like a knife shaking her cheeks. She pulled the collar casually, but still could not block the invasion of the cold wind.
The streets were still deserted. Apart from the wind that was rotating wildly, there was a person standing under the light, and it seemed that this person was just waiting for his arrival.
At first, Zhong Kui thought it was Black and White Impermanence, because this person was dressed in black clothes and had a tall figure as big as him. Later, when he saw that this person was single, he knew that he was not Black and White Impermanence, nor was he Bai Impermanence.
The light blue haze covered the man's face and could not see through the expression on his face. It can only be said that his hearing is no worse than Zhong Kui.
Suddenly, he turned around 180 degrees, looked at him with a burning look and said, "You really have the courage." Hearing the other party's quiet and cold voice, Zhong Kui randomly guessed that he was a messenger of hell?
The other party seemed to have seen through his thoughts at first glance, ‘Ha~Ha~Ha’ “I am not a messenger of hell, I am Zhong Kui.” His laughter was very empty, and it sounded like it was coming from all directions. “You can’t even take care of yourself, how can you save your friend? Save your daughter?”
Zhong Kui? Zhong Kui was shocked, suspected that his ear hearing was wrong, "Who are you?" He took a step closer and wanted to see the other person clearly.
"I am you, you are me." The other party seemed to have set up a barrier, no matter how Zhong Kui thought about getting close to him.
"What nonsense is it? How could I be you? How could you be me?"
"You are not God, you are a human. The weakness of human beings is that they have justice and dark side (intellectual demon). They are like twin brothers, closely dependent on each other, but they have conflicts at all times. I am your dark side (intellectual demon)."
"What do you want to do?" Zhong Kui looked at the other party in disbelief and questioned.
"I want to make a bet for you."
“How to say it?”
"If I win, you have to be me, and I will be suppressed for a long time without any success. If you win, then I will continue to be your slave."
“What is the bet?”
"Your friends, wife and daughter are all your bargaining chips."
"Hmph! Since you are me, you should know that I don't have a family. Where does my wife come from? When did you say that your children?"
"Is that?" A grim smile appeared on the dark side. "Who is this person?" As he said that, he suddenly pulled the black cloak like an opening cloth. Under the cloak, a panicked Jiang Rong flashed out.
Seeing Jiang Rong, Zhong Kui suddenly understood. The inner demon pulled her into a nightmare. In the dream, he could see her. But she couldn't see herself. What tricks did the inner demon want to play?
Jiang Rong had a nightmare. She dreamed that it was raining in the sky. The dark clouds were like the sky was about to collapse. The manic storm almost overturned the roof. She was very scared. The dream was that she and her father Jiang Shuai.
Lightning and thunder roaring, and the wind blew wildly. She ran wildly in the rain and saw that it seemed to be her home in front of her. She ran in without saying a word, and her father greeted her with a smile.
He vaguely felt something bad behind him, and flashed into the door, Jiang Rong shouted in disbelief: "Dad close the door, hurry up!"
