Li Nanke stared at the red and dark sky, constantly thinking about the scene he just saw in his mind.
What exactly did Meng’s father give his wife the medicine?
Who is the person he kneels to?
Is it the Supreme Emperor?
But the temperament and appearance don't seem to be the same.
There is also that cold little girl of eleven or twelve years old, who always feels a little bit inexplicably familiar.
But I couldn't find this person when I searched through the memories in my mind.
In short, Hecun has too many secrets.
The barrier in front of us is more like isolating this village and imprisoning it alone.
Li Nanke tried to leave the barrier to no avail, so he returned to the village.
I thought Father Meng had gone home, but when I came to the middle of the village, I found him standing silently by the well, with worry written on his face.
Li Nanke looked around and found no other villagers.
But there was smoke curling up from the surrounding houses, and it was obvious that there were people inside.
At this time, Father Meng took out another porcelain bottle from his arms and poured the liquid that was very similar to Red Rain into the well. The worried look on his face was replaced by indifference.
Not long after pouring, a dark-skinned young woman came carrying a bucket.
Behind him was a child of about six years old.
Jumping and trotting.
Seeing Father Meng, the woman smiled and said hello.
Meng's father also had a smile on his face. After the two chatted for a while, Meng's father even helped the woman fetch water diligently.
The child was thirsty and clamored for water, so the woman used a ladle to scoop out the water in the bucket for him to drink. During this period, Meng's father never stopped him, but just watched coldly.
As a bystander, Li Nanke naturally couldn't stop it.
After careful observation, I feel that it is not red rain.
After the woman and child left, Meng's father put his hands on the edge of the well and stared at the deep well water without knowing what he was thinking.
The dark wellhead was also like an eye, staring at him.
After a long time, Meng's father left.
Li Nanke followed behind.
But Meng's father did not go to his own home. Instead, he came to a strange house and knocked on the door.
The door opened and it was an old man about sixty years old.
The old man has a kind face and a cane.
But the most eye-catching thing is his white beard, which almost reaches his belly near his navel.
Father Meng chatted with the old man for a few words and then left.
I don't know what was said.
When Li Nanke was about to follow Meng's father again, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at the old man who was closing the door.
Through the crack in the door, there seemed to be a person lying on the ground inside the house.
A corpse to be precise!
Snapped!
The door is closed.
Looking at the closed door, Li Nanke frowned.
Things are getting weirder and weirder.
After hesitating for a moment, Li Nanke came to the door of the old man's house. At this moment, the door opened again. It was the old man who had changed into thicker clothes and was getting ready to go out.
Taking advantage of the opportunity for the other party to close the door, Li Nanke ducked into the house.
The interior decoration is simple.
A black long bow hangs on the wall.
There was indeed a body on the ground.
The corpse had no head and was male. He was wearing a plain white gown. He looked like an educated Confucian scholar and was incompatible with the village.
Li Nanke squatted down and found several broken bloody tentacles on the broken neck.
Is this the red rain monster!?
A chill rolled through his body, making the hairs on the man's hair stand on end.
Li Nanke thought of the cold girl he saw just now, who was holding a head and throwing it on the ground.
Could it be...
Is this the monster the girl killed?
According to this statement, this place is actually the Red Rain World!
Li Nanke suddenly realized.
That’s right!
This is originally the world of Red Rain!
To be precise, Meng Xiaotu and his family once lived in Hecun in the world of Red Rain.
It may sound complicated, but you will understand it if you comb it carefully.
Back then, there were two worlds in Hecun.
The real world and the Red Rain world overlap.
Meng Shuangshuang and other villagers lived in the real world, and were eventually relocated to Yuncheng and Dongqi counties by the court.
Meng Xiaotu and the others live in the Red Rain World.
This also explains why, in the same village, there are unreasonable scenes such as the sea outside the village where Meng Xiaotu’s home is located, and there is even red rain falling.
It also explains why Grandma Meng was able to adopt Meng Xiaotu in the village but never met her before.
Both of them are from Hecun, but they live in different worlds.
From this, we can infer that something happened in the Red Rain World where Meng Xiaotu's family lived, and in the end only Little Rabbit survived.
After appearing in the real world, he was adopted by Grandma Meng.
As for the mysterious man wearing a mask, he must be someone from the imperial court.
This shows that the Emperor had already designated Hecun as a key area for experiments.
As for what they are experimenting with in secret.
On a large scale, it must be related to the world of Red Rain. On a small scale, we can only continue to investigate and see if we can find other useful clues.
After all, the red rain first fell in this village and lasted for an entire hour.
This already shows that Hecun is unusual.
Just as the man was thinking, the cold monster corpse on the ground seemed to smell something, and the tentacles at the broken neck suddenly began to squirm.
Before Li Nanke could react, those tentacles wrapped directly around his body.
The corpse also slowly stood up.
"grass!"
Li Nanke cursed secretly and struggled hurriedly, but he was too weak to break free.
The tentacles wrapped tightly around his limbs.
Stretch it into a "big" font.
"Brother, I'm a man. It's shameful for you to make me like this." Li Nanke struggled hard and cursed. In desperation, he suddenly thought of the ancient book on his body and hurriedly rubbed his right fingers.
With a flash of red light, the ancient book appeared in front of me out of thin air.
Li Nanke originally planned to turn to the page of the shrine and release the succubus in the lake to save himself, but the ancient book automatically turned to a blank page.
A bright light burst out from the pages of the book, stinging Li Nanke so hard that he couldn't open his eyes.
Hazy, he slowly lost consciousness.
………
"Eh? Sir, you're awake!"
When Li Nanke gradually woke up and before he could open his eyes to adapt to the light, a woman's voice of joy could be heard in his ears.
gentlemen?
Are you calling me?
Li Nanke opened his eyes drowsily and saw a circle of people surrounding him, including men, women, old and young, all staring at him.
I go!
Li Nanke was startled by this sudden scene and almost jumped up.
Only then did he realize that he was lying on the bed.
what's the situation?
Why are there suddenly so many people?
And it can be seen from their eyes that they are visible at this moment.
"Sir, how are you feeling? Does your head still hurt?"
a woman asked with concern.
This woman, Li Nanke, was very familiar. She was the one who helped Meng's father fetch water.
Li Nanke was confused.
What's going on?
Is this an illusion? Or am I dreaming?
Why am I a gentleman again?
There happened to be a bronze mirror placed next to the bed. Li Nanke turned around and saw that the familiar handsome face remained the same, but the clothes on his body were different.
The clothes on the monster he saw at the old man's house were exactly the same.
The plain white gown and handsome face are full of Confucianism.
"Sir, isn't he possessed by evil spirits?"
A cute little girl squeezed in from the crowd, looked at the dazed man, raised her little hand and waved in front of him, and said with concern with her beautiful big eyes.
"Little rabbit! Don't be rude to sir!"
Meng's mother also appeared beside the bed. Seeing her daughter's behavior, she was so frightened that she quickly pulled Meng Xiaotu out of the crowd and scolded her in a low voice.
Li Nanke's mind was still a mess.
But he gradually got a taste for it.
Are you... pretending to be someone else?
Similar to what Phoenix Mountain experienced, he traveled to Hecun a few years ago. The only difference was that he played a teacher.
It can also be said that this is a VR-style fantasy.
From someone else's perspective, experience everything that happened in Hecun.
Wait! Where is Xiaoxiao?
Only then did the man come to his senses and realized that he had forgotten He Lan Xiaoxiao.
