Li Xinghe took a few deep breaths and recalled the strange place that appeared out of thin air just now. She didn't need to guess, the hot feeling still remaining on her fingertips was screaming to remind her that the answer to the mystery is here! The answer to the mystery is here!
She was so scared that she only dared to peek at her fingers with her peripheral vision. The fingers were still on the ground, but they had not been eaten by anything, nor had they transformed into a terrifying monster claw shape!
She said silently in her heart: Calm down! Even the monsters have nothing to be afraid of, and they won't have much meat if they eat me. Besides, instead of living such an endless miserable life, being eaten is a relief.
Mom, I'm sorry, maybe I need to get rid of the hard life and enjoy the happiness first.
Li Xinghe prepared herself mentally, then closed her eyes tightly, not daring to look. She rubbed the tip of her index finger with her thumb as she did just now.
Sure enough, closing her eyes was useless. The next moment, the chaotic space appeared in her mind again, as real as before her eyes. This time she bravely tried to see it clearly, but she could only see a few square meters of gray and white.
.The whole space seems to be inside the clouds, and the boundaries are blurred.
"Is there anyone?" She heard her voice trembling and hoarse.
What responded to her was the chirping of a few birds in the mountains.
She slowly opened her eyes, but the thing didn't disappear.
"Who are you? Come out." After trying again, there was still no response. The ghost in my mind did not appear, nor did the monster.
Li Xinghe raised her left hand, wanting to touch the boundary of the magical space, but her hand seemed to pass through it and she did not feel anything real. She took another step forward, wanting to get closer. However, it seemed shy.
, like a clever cat, actually took a step back at the same time.
She loosened her fingers and turned her attention elsewhere. Sure enough, it disappeared.
Pinch your fingers again, concentrate, and it appears again!
After repeating this several times, Li Xinghe confirmed that if his fingers and thoughts work at the same time, this thing will appear. Otherwise, it will disappear.
After letting it disappear, Li Xinghe forced himself to take a deep breath. No monster appeared or was eaten just now, and this thing didn't seem to want to attack him. It seems that it is not the residence of monsters, so what exactly is it?
She must have been too hungry and had hallucinations. She came to the conclusion that after dinner, the hallucinations would not appear again.
Moreover! You cannot tell anyone about your hallucinations.
She had seen the idiot wife in the house in the west of the village. She was locked in the house because she was crazy and always said strange things. Li Xinghe knew the fate of crazy women, so he had to keep his hallucinations secret.
After this fright, she gave up looking for food. The sun began to set and she hurried home to cook.
The firewood in the basket next to her was piled almost as high as hers. Pile the firewood even higher! She has practiced this skill to perfection. Today she seems to have performed exceptionally well.
Although the firewood is dry, a little makes a lot. This basket of firewood is definitely a test of one's physical strength.
Li Xinghe squatted down, pulled the strap of the backpack up to his shoulders, held his breath and exerted force, and stood up smoothly. Sure enough, it was extra heavy today.
"Eh, it's so heavy." She muttered as she adjusted the position of the strap on her shoulders.
As soon as I finished speaking, the weight on my shoulders lightened up!
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!
what's the situation!
Li Xinghe was completely petrified!
She mechanically raised her hand and touched her back! Where was the basket? Where was the firewood?
It’s so weird today! It’s not over yet!
Could it be that a ghost hit the wall? A chill flowed from head to foot. Li Xinghe felt that all the hairs on her body stood up. She jumped up and ran along the path. It was said to be a path, but in fact it was just footprints made by going up and down the mountain again and again.
.
He ran with all his strength, but before he could run very far, his foot tripped on a rock, and Li Xinghe fell out. He hit the ground with a muffled sound.
Ignoring the pain in her body, she quickly rolled half a circle and lay up, letting her back rest on the ground.
Her mother's strong support gave her some sense of security. She looked up in the direction she was running. Fortunately, there was no one around and nothing was chasing her.
After confirming that there were no ghosts, she began to become even more frightened. Why was the firewood she had spent a long time collecting gone? There was indeed nothing around! The firewood just disappeared!
The fact that the firewood was lost frightened her more than the ghost.
It was almost time for dinner. Not only did she not bring firewood home, she even lost her backpack. It was inevitable that she would not have dinner, and she would definitely be beaten and scolded again. If her mother asked for mercy, she would definitely be beaten.
were beaten together.
Wait? A ray of light flashed through Li Xinghe's confused mind.
Could it be that the disappearance of the firewood basket was related to that strange thing? She raised her upper body and sat upright.
Take a deep breath, focus, and put your fingers.
A chaotic space appeared before our eyes, and sure enough! The firewood and the backpack were standing on the 'ground' of that space, not scattered at all.
Li Xinghe didn't get too happy too soon. She calmly asked softly and hesitantly, "Excuse me, can you take it out?" As for who she was asking, of course she didn't know.
As soon as she finished speaking, the thing actually disappeared from the space and reappeared on the snow in front of her.
She was so frightened that she took a big step back! This time she could see clearly, and she really went from the inside to the front at once!
"Put it in." She tried again shakily.
"take it out."
The basket full of firewood moved in and out of the space following her instructions, and the process was very smooth.
The smart Li Xinghe has understood it now. It seems that this thing is a container that can store items? And for some reason, it completely obeys his orders.
What she sees in front of her is far beyond the cognitive scope of Li Xinghe, who graduated from junior high school. But when she was in school, she borrowed a lot of teachers' books. She was not a silly ordinary farm girl. She had a world of her own in her mind.
.
So she did not continue to be afraid blindly. She tried hard to digest the magical things she encountered. Its existence was reasonable! Since it existed and she encountered it, then this might be an opportunity for her to break through the barriers.
After thinking about it, an unprecedented excitement filled her spiritual world! She was like a butterfly that had finally grown wings. Maybe this was the "rebirth" she could achieve.
She quickly organized her thoughts, put the firewood into the space again, and continued to collect firewood with the empty basket on her back. On the way home, she randomly threw firewood into the basket when she saw it while walking.
"It's great. You don't have to worry about moving it around just to carry more. This saves a lot of time."
Huh? Wait a minute, Li Xinghe's big eyes rolled, and he first put the backpack into the space and put it away. Then he looked at the firewood around him and thought.
"Haha." Sure enough! The firewood he was thinking about has been neatly stacked into the space. This is so easy to use. Li Xinghe's body is light and airy, and he feels like he is about to fly with joy.
On the way back to the village, she almost filled up the small space.
The village was right in front of her. Li Xinghe calmed down, put the basket on her shoulders again, loaded it with firewood, and walked step by step toward the mountain village with the firewood that was much higher than her head.
After passing through several houses, she came to the door of one. She looked back and forth, but no one noticed her. She opened the door and walked in first. After closing the door, she stood in front of the courtyard door and asked crisply: "
