Chapter 227 Strange things in the small village 27
If Mr. Li hadn't arrived in time, they might have been in danger.
"Speaking of which, Mr. Li once said that you are a person protected by his family's ancestor." Lin Chen said.
"Do you still remember that we stayed at Grandma Li Liu's house on the first night we came here? That grandmother should be Mr. Li's ancestor."
"That's it." Lin Chen nodded.
Gu Nian once told him that she saw Grandma Li Liu's tomb in her dream, cleaned it for her, and lit incense candles.
"Speaking of which, it's because of your kindheartedness that you were blessed by that grandma." He sighed sincerely.
As he spoke, he brought Gu Nian one of her steamed steamed buns.
"So, what do you think we should do next?"
"Now we can only wait. Waiting for new changes in the future, waiting for the Taoist priest or Mr. Li wearing a mask to come to our door." Gu Nian pondered for a moment and then said.
This wait is five days.
During these five days, they were not forced to enter those mysterious alleys at night and fight fiercely with various monsters.
During these five days, Lin Chen had been forced by Gu Nian to recuperate at home.
Gu Nian sometimes goes out to buy fresh ingredients that Lin Chen wants to eat.
It was also when she was out that she discovered that in this small village, which was not too big or too populous, there were actually a lot of young men and women missing from the village that she usually saw on the street.
Gu Nian suspected that the missing people were game players who were sent to those dangerous alleys at night. Then, their world fell into darkness forever, and there was no more dawn.
On the morning of the ninth day of the game, Gu Nian and Lin Chen had breakfast together and chatted.
"More and more players have died in this round." Gu Nian said with a frown.
She didn't know when she and Lin Chen would enter those dangerous alleys again, and what kind of monsters they would face. And what was the way to end all of this.
"This small village, the Tomb of Ten Thousand Tombs outside, and the small town next to it... what kind of connection do these places have? What is the relationship between the Taoist priest and the people of the Li family and these places...
Also, the name of this round of the game, Little Village Trickery, also worries me a lot." Gu Nian murmured to himself, holding his chin, with a look of deep thought and puzzlement.
In order to cheer up Gu Nian, Lin Chen quickly cheered her up: "Why don't we go for a walk outside and take a closer look at the situation here. Maybe we will make some new discoveries."
"Your body... doesn't it matter if we go out?" She quickly asked nervously.
"My condition is very good. You took care of me all night last night, and I'm fine today."
"Then let's just walk around the village and don't leave the village, lest we meet the Taoist priest at this time."
After breakfast, the two of them packed up and went out.
In order to make Lin Chen, who was injured, more comfortable, Gu Nian hired a carriage and asked the driver to take them around the small village.
They walked for about an hour when a breakdown suddenly occurred in front of them.
A carriage rolled over in front. In addition, there were people coming and going on the street, and many people gathered around to watch the fun, which actually blocked most of the originally narrow street.
