I'm back from hell

"How about this."

Manager Chen said: "Who looked in the mirror under the blooming peach tree and took the initiative to stand up."

Under his suggestion, many people came forward.

Among them are Zheng Ziyu, Hu Xuanxuan and Gao Ying.

"Manager Chen, you must protect us."

Zheng Ziyu's face was full of fear.

Gao Ying and others also looked at Manager Chen and others expectantly.

Manager Chen's heart skipped a beat and he could only nodded perfunctorily.

Chen Xiang and others were silent.

At this time, your own survival is in question. Who will protect you?
  Who has the ability to protect you?

Zheng Ziyu and others think about letting people protect them, which is unrealistic in itself.

"Close the courtyard door."

"We must not let those seven people in this time."

"We'll go look for them again when it gets bright tomorrow."

Manager Chen was afraid that there would be a gap between the two parties, so he hurriedly spoke.

"Correct."

Zhang Yun was also worried that the two sides would be separated and ultimately unable to overcome this difficulty, so she quickly said: "As long as we unite as one, we will definitely be able to overcome this difficulty."

"Ah."

Everyone agreed and spoke out to mediate: "Yes, we will definitely protect you. If something happens to you, we probably won't be spared either."

"It is! It is!"

……

The atmosphere on both sides has eased.

"Who is keeping watch today?"

Then Gao Ying asked.

Everyone looked at each other and saw that almost everyone was in extremely bad condition. It was impossible to hold on all night.

finally.

"Change a group of people in two hours."

"One person from each room."

Everyone makes a decision.

And then left in a hurry.

It was so sleepy.

Many people came into the house and randomly pointed out one person to watch the first two hours of the night, and then they all found a place to lie down and rest.

Xia Yu's side.

In addition to her, Zheng Ziyu, Hu Xuanxuan and Gao Ying, there were also Zhang Yun, the proprietress of Taohuaju and a little girl with a bun.

seven people.

The little girl with a round head was assigned a bed because of her young age. Sleeping with her was the proprietress of Taohuaju and Zhang Yun.

On the other bed, Zheng Ziyu, Hu Xuanxuan and Gao Ying were crowded together.

Xia Yu voluntarily gave up sleeping on the bed, and also took the initiative to be the first person to watch the night, further winning the respect and recognition of the girls.

The moment she implanted herself in bed, the little girl with a round head fell asleep.

It was really cruel for her to experience such a scene at such a young age, and the parents who took her on the trip all turned into mutants and were killed.

Her soul was severely damaged.

It can be said that I am physically and mentally exhausted at this moment.

and so……

The ones who fall asleep are also the quickest.

The next ones to fall asleep were Zheng Ziyu and the proprietress of Taohuaju. They did not participate in the ensuing discussion at all.

"Is there anything you can do tomorrow?"

This time Hu Xuanxuan took the lead and asked.

Gao Ying said: "Rather than sit back and wait for death, it is better to take the initiative. We must catch those seven people. Maybe we can force something out of their mouths."

"cocoa……"

Hu Xuanxuan said worriedly: "Although Taohua Village is not big, time flows so fast that the daytime is very short. We may not have a chance to find those seven people."

"Ah."

Gao Ying strongly agreed.

Zhang Yun also said aloud: "Besides, who knows whether those who died tomorrow will be alive? Who knows whether they will stop us from finding those seven people?"

Hearing this, the girls fell silent.

Xia Yu did not participate in the discussion. She was thinking about one thing: "As more and more fog events occur, the rules will become more and more complete."

"The new rules born from the current fog incident cannot be unrelated to each other, so..."

Combining the ‘rules’ that have been learned, it is easy to deduce that all the rules are serving the legend of Peach Blossom Village.

For example: People who look in the mirror under a blooming peach blossom tree will be targeted by the 'Peach Blossom Demon'.

For example: Those '7 people' were probably selected by the rules for the same reason and became the 'Peach Blossom Demon', or the 'dogs' of the 'Peach Blossom Demon'.

They are responsible for making those who look in the mirror under the blooming peach tree disappear.

For example...

……

In short, the rules of the fog event are likely to reproduce the legend of the 'Peach Blossom Demon'.

So……

“How can I take advantage of this?”

Xia Yu reasoned from this perspective, hoping to predict what the next new rules would be and how to survive the next new rules.

She began to recall the legend of the 'Peach Blossom Demon' again, and thought of two things:
  First, before the fog incident broke out, she asked Zhao Guohui about the details of a missing female tourist. The tourist did not believe in evil and insisted on looking in the mirror under the blooming peach tree. Later, she disappeared inexplicably and there was no news.

This is somewhat similar to the 'disappearance' incident occurring within the current Mist Incident.

Unfortunately, Xia Yu didn't know what happened to the missing female tourist, nor did she know who the murderer was or how she committed the crime.

Secondly, last night, peach blossoms fell on everyone in the courtyard, and all the peach blossoms disappeared the next day. Is there any explanation for this?

finally.

Xia Yu still asked Xiaohua to sneak into Taohua Village to find out the news.

For a guy like Xiaohua, who has no spirit and can't feel the passage of time, he is like a duck in water here, and he is the best candidate for 'exploring information'.

……

……

Peach blossoms are outside.

The figure flickered.

Seven of them were divided into two groups and headed straight to every corner of Taohua Village to capture the people hiding in them.

"let me go!"

"Help!"

"Boom."

……

Some people struggled, but were quickly knocked unconscious and dragged to a place.

One.

two.

……

As time passed, nearly 50 people were arrested in less than half an hour.

Xiaohua watched this scene quietly.

Never took action.

And this moment.

Three of the seven are arresting Xiao Chen.

It was the little boy who wanted Xia Yu to be his woman.

"Go away!"

"Let go of my son!"

"I will fight with you."

"Snapped!"

Xiaochen's mother desperately stepped forward to stop him, and then was slapped to the ground.

but.

The mother who was protecting her son had an unusually strong fighting ability. Seeing her son crying "Mom", she actually picked up the fruit knife beside her.

Stab hard into one person's back.

Unfortunately, it happened to hit the back of the heart.

"Uh……"

The face of the person who was stabbed finally stopped being stiff and showed an expression of pain, and then 'disappeared out of thin air'.

"Boom."

Xiaochen's mother was kicked to the ground. The other two people stepped forward and prepared to knock her out. They never thought that Xiaochen's mother did not become afraid of killing people, but instead risked her life: "Killing one is killing, killing two is killing!"

"Go to hell! Go to die!"

She charged fiercely.

Three figures fought together, causing chaos in the room.

However, Xiao Chen did not dare to step forward to help, nor did he listen to his mother's words and escape alone. He just huddled in the corner, shivering, and could only cry.

"puff."

The sound of flesh penetration kept ringing out, and blood splattered.

In the darkness, nothing could be seen, which made Xiaochen's mother even more crazy.

Seeing that one of them stopped moving.

Xiaochen's mother yelled at the other person: "Come! Come!"

Heavy breathing sounded.

But there was no response.

"Xiao Chen, come behind mom."

As soon as Xiaochen's mother turned to look at where her son was, the last person grabbed the chair nearby and smashed it over.

"Boom."

"what!"

Xiaochen's mother screamed and fell to the ground.

The last person also took the opportunity to rush forward and kicked the fruit knife away from Xiaochen's mother's hand, followed by a series of punches and kicks.

"Xiao Chen, run quickly."

Xiaochen's mother realized that she might not survive, so she hugged the last person's right leg tightly and shouted.

"Mother……"

Xiao Chen only knew how to cry.

He has always been protected and doted on by his mother, and he simply does not have the ability to be strong and make the best choice at critical moments.

"Crench."

At this moment, the door of a small room in the corner opened, and a little girl stuck her head out. She was dirty, her clothes were thin, and her feet were stuck together due to long-term bleeding and tattered shoes.

The last person who was beating Xiaochen's mother couldn't help but turn his head and glance at the little girl. Finally, he withdrew his gaze and concentrated on beating Xiaochen's mother.

"what."

Xiaochen's mother didn't know whether she heard the noise or thought of something, but she looked in the direction of the little girl at this time. Although she couldn't see anything in the dark night, she yelled: "Xiaowen, hurry up! Take your brother and leave."

The little girl turned around without hesitation and limped towards the door.

He ignored Xiaochen's mother's words.

"You little bastard, Xiaochen is your biological brother. Is this how you treat your brother?"

"Thankfully, I have raised you for seven or eight years. Is this how you repay me?"

Xiaochen's mother really heard the noise this time, and she immediately cursed.

then……

"Boom."

"what."

She was beaten again.

Hearing this, the little girl who had already run to the courtyard door suddenly stopped, then glanced at the people in the main room, with a trace of resentment in her eyes. She took out a lighter, turned around to the left, and lit the candle next to the courtyard door. Wheat stack.

Wheat stacks are made of dried wheat straw.

The dried wheat straw is very easy to ignite and is an excellent material for making fire. After being ignited at this time, the fire spreads rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, the fire reaches the sky.

With the help of the firelight, you can see that the little girl's body is covered with blood scabs, and her whole body is skin and bones, as if she will fall to the ground if the wind blows.

"Whoosh."

The little girl then strode away. Because her movements were too large and too fast, blood started to flow from her feet again.

"You...you little bastard, you are so cruel!"

"Xiao Chen, run! Follow your sister and run out!"

"otherwise……"

Xiaochen's mother's expression changed drastically. She ignored the injuries and pain on her body, grabbed the last person's calf harder and harder, and yelled at Xiaochen.

The little girl has run a long distance.

The mother's voice in my ears finally disappeared.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

A look of relief and relief appeared on his face.

Then she fell to the ground and passed out.

How could she, who was already so skinny, withstand twenty times the flow of time?
  Being able to hold on until now is entirely due to obsession.

An obsession to get rid of my mother!

"Whoosh."

Xiaohua appeared and picked up the little girl. Before leaving, he turned around and saw the sky-high fire behind him completely covering the courtyard door. The wooden courtyard door was also completely ignited, completely sealing off everyone in the house who wanted to escape.

Moreover, who knows what was next to the wheat stack was also ignited, causing the fire to spread rapidly deep into the courtyard.

"Whoosh."

Xiaohua flashed away.

now.

In the room where Xia Yu was, all the girls were asleep and it was quiet.

Inside the courtyard.

The peach blossom trees once again grow automatically without wind.

Peach blossoms fall.

Flying in the sky, it seems to be irregular, but in fact it arrives at the door of all rooms accurately.

The difference this time is...

Another 'gust of wind' blew by, and the peach blossoms followed the gap at the bottom of the door and entered the room.

Only the room where Xia Yu was located could not enter because there were several pieces of gravel stuck at the bottom of the door. Taohua happened to be stuck between two pieces of gravel.

Xia Yu didn't know when she got up and came to the window. Her eyesight was already amazing. Under the firelight in the distance, she could clearly see something in other people's rooms with teeth and claws.

Then a 'muffled' sound came from inside the house.

the strange thing is.

There was no cry, and the 'humming' sound quickly disappeared.

As if nothing had happened.

"???"

Xia Yu frowned, she knew... something must have happened in other rooms.

"Whoosh."

At this moment, Xiaohua, who came to the door of Taohuajuyuan, stopped at Xia Yu's order and did not enter.

Time passed by minute by minute.

a moment.

The sky is bright.

Everyone's second night in Peach Blossom Village passed.

Xia Yu rubbed her aching eyes, looking slightly tired. Even though her strength had reached the second-level spiritual realm, and even though she used the ancient guidance technique to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth last night, she was still a little tired.

Especially mentally.

"Nothing happened last night, right?"

"Xia Yu, why didn't you wake us up and take your place?"

"Yeah, you're too tired."

……

Zheng Ziyu and others woke up and were in good condition.

"I see you are sleeping soundly, and I don't have the heart to disturb you."

Xia Yu shook her head and quickly changed the topic: "I seemed to see the sky full of fire yesterday and heard the cries of a woman and a child."

"I also heard faint movements from other rooms."

"what?!!"

Zheng Ziyu and others instantly lost their sleepiness and lazy posture, and became very nervous.

Just now.

"What about people?"

There were exclamations in the room where Manager Chen was.

"I do not know."

"There were eight people last night, why were there only three of us left overnight?"

"There's no one outside the door. Did he leave?"

"Wait a minute! The five missing people seem to be... people who looked in the mirror under the peach blossom tree?"

The room fell silent.

"Boom."

Immediately, Manager Chen and the other three rushed open the door in a panic and rushed out.
