Chapter 27 Midnight Carnival Town

Accompanied by the light of a flashlight, I carried Mr. Liu on my back, followed by a dozen elderly people, and walked towards the outside of the wood distribution office.

I don’t know where the thin clouds came from, covering the hazy moonlight, making the night darker and darker. I felt inexplicably sad in my heart. What can such a group of old people do? But do they dare to fight if there are only such a group of old people left in the town? ?

In the wind, an old man walking in front of me was faltering. If his descendants were also one of the men in black robes, how would they feel?

I feel like I'm sentimental like a woman, but that's what Chen Chengyi is. I don't dare to call myself compassionate, but I really don't dare to live numbly in this world. Instead of being a cold-blooded superior, I would rather be that person. He often has tears in his eyes. He fights until his life is in danger for some things that are inexplicable to outsiders. He is always embarrassed and makes people unable to understand or even worry about himself.

I even thought of Lao Hui. Once in front of his grave, Xiaobei talked about his past, and talked about this sloppy-looking child who was also a crybaby. Even an abandoned child could make him famous. His eyes were filled with tears, and he never concealed his emotions. Xiaobei said to me at the end: "If you don't cry, you may not be a true hero. On the contrary, I think a real hero is empathetic, right? If you don't have a sensitive and sincere heart, How can he feel the suffering in the world and die for it if he has such a heart? He must have felt it deeply."

"After the children got on the boat, there was no need to make any noise?" The past cannot be traced back. In such a cold night, I stopped my thoughts and began to desperately look for topics. I didn't want such a sad and silent atmosphere to surround this group of elderly people. , I don’t even need to guess, I know that they must have failed many times, and every failure may be a heavy blow, and I am afraid that their hearts will become cold.

"After entering that cabin, I haven't seen the child coming out. I don't know why, but there must be something inside, right?" Mr. Liu answered me, his voice was still weak, but I still couldn't feel it. It has the meaning of decadence and wanting to give up.

I hummed and continued walking in silence until I walked out of the timber transportation office and walked to the streets of the town. Then I said: "I didn't come here to save people, let alone explore mysteries or solve riddles. Then Zhang Xian's own reputation. I came here for some clues about my elders. However, after seeing everything tonight, I feel that saving people can be placed in a more important position in my heart. I mean, even if I don't have my own Purpose, I am also willing to save people. I don’t know how strong my ability is, but I am just willing. Mr. Liu, there are still a group of people like you in this town. I am very touched. I did not expect it. I just hope. Don’t give up.”

After hearing this, all the old people looked at me in surprise and moved, but no one spoke, even Mr. Liu on my back was silent.

After a long time, he said: "Young man, are you a true Taoist or a Taoist priest?"

"Yes, I have the inheritance. I am really an upright Taoist." After walking so far alone with someone on my back, I felt a little hot. The breath I exhaled formed a stream in this cold night. There was a white mist in my mouth, but I felt a sense of pride flowing from my chest in the mist.

"That's right, you must have been a Taoist! There used to be a Taoist priest with no ability in our town. He followed a mysterious man to that evil place and never came back! On weekdays, I can't see

I can't tell how he is different from ordinary people. He has the same small thoughts and the same small problems. But at the critical moment, he is so heroic. It surprises me. How can he be so heroic?

How can a little person understand the choice of righteousness? He told me that he has the inheritance of the Taoist family and knows what the bottom line should be in the heart of the Taoist family. He said that he is on the right path. Only when there is righteousness can there be a way. So what is righteousness? He has already known in his heart

I have already figured out the taste, haha." Mr. Liu suddenly told me about such a person, and in a few words, a vivid image was sketched in front of my eyes.

I suddenly thought of a person and couldn't help but say: "Are you talking about Mr. Liu from this town?"

"Do you know Mr. Liu?" Mr. Liu was obviously surprised.

"Well, I heard a story before I came here. I actually came here to find Mr. Liu's youngest son, Liu Weijun. Before, I thought you were him! But, your name is Liu Jiwang, right?" This question has long enveloped my mind.

Well, at this moment, I just happened to say it.

"What story have you heard? Do you know more? Are you looking for Wei Jun? In terms of seniority, I should be Wei Jun's second cousin. You think I am the leader. In fact, the person who leads our group is always

Weijun, it's just that his condition is very bad, so he can't come tonight." Mr. Liu asked a series of questions at first, but he quickly answered my questions. I didn't expect that he turned out to be a relative of Liu Weijun.

Uncle Ge once said that Liu Weijun is not easy to get close to, but I thought about this opportunity. It seems that I am afraid that I will find Liu Weijun and find the real clues. Thinking about this, I feel a little better tonight for the first time.

Relax, and while walking with Mr. Liu on his back, he said: "There are many things that I can't explain right now. So, old man, can you take me to meet Liu Weijun first? I will definitely tell you these things."

"That's no problem, but it's no longer convenient to move at night. People in this town have just given birth to a bride. I'm afraid it will be another emotional night. Come to me during the day tomorrow and I will take you to see the guards."

As he spoke, Mr. Liu suddenly seemed to have come to his senses and asked again: "Where do you live? How could this town let you, an outsider, stay overnight so easily?"

As expected of a man from the town, Mr. Liu immediately found the key point. Only then did I realize that in the place where I stayed, I didn’t even know who the old man was. I didn’t know his last name, so I could only smile bitterly, and then

Tell the old man roughly where I live?

After hearing this, Mr. Liu was a little silent. After a while, he said: "Well, it doesn't matter. After all, I saw you take action today. It was amazing! Unlike Mr. Liu, who is a Taoist priest with no ability, he is not afraid of what Old Man Wang will do to you.

What, besides you still have companions, come find me tomorrow! Right here, I will be here."

While we were talking, we had walked a long way, and the dozen or so old people reminded me softly from time to time which way to go. We walked around seventy-eight times until we reached an alley. Mr. Liu was pointing to an old tube building in the alley.

I took a deep look at this tube building and must remember it, because this is the place I will come to tomorrow. At the same time, I also let go of Mr. Liu.

"Except for the guards, there are more than a dozen of us living in this building now, because we are the only unyielding people left in the town. Living together can help each other, so you can come tomorrow.

"Mr. Liu looked at me and said seriously, with some inexplicable expectation in his eyes.

I nodded solemnly. At this time, the wind blew away the dark clouds covering the moon, and I saw Mr. Liu showing a smile of relief under the moonlight.

————————————————————Dividing line——————————————————————

It was two old men who sent me back to the place where I lived. They were very silent and didn't want to say much about many things, but their brief conversation also let me know that the owner of the place where I lived was named Wang.

"His name is Wang Xiangjun. Once, a pair of his children were selected at the same time and sent to that evil place." This is what one of the old men said to me. The words were very brief, but one sentence said a lot.

This reminded me of the time I went to this old man's room before departure. In addition to the weird skeleton, there were several photos in the room. Now I am sure that the photos should really be his wife and children.

!

I didn't see his wife, I just felt inexplicable anger in my heart. Why could he be called the insensitive person in the town when his children were sent away and he didn't know whether they were alive or dead?

With this thought in mind, we had already reached the gate of the yard. The two old men said goodbye to me as if they had some scruples, and left in a hurry. Looking at their backs, I suddenly remembered a sentence, it was Liu

The old man told me when he was leaving, why did the people in the town get a little excited today when I send you a bride?

Full of doubts, I pushed open the door to the courtyard. As soon as there was any movement, I saw Ruxue and Brother Chengxin running out of the house.

"Chengyi!" Brother Chengxin was a little excited. He called my name, rushed over, grabbed me, and looked at me strangely. He must have been wondering why I was wearing such a weird cloak.

And Ruyue also came over, with an expression of "surviving the disaster", and pulled me at the same time.

Looking at them, I was full of things to say, but at this moment, I suddenly heard the sound of gongs and drums coming from the town, which was extremely harsh in the middle of the night.

Brother Chengxin and Ruyue looked at each other, obviously not understanding what was going on with all the commotion in the town in the middle of the night. It was like a happy event, but before they could say anything, they heard the faint sound of people going crazy again.

shouts, and at the same time, someone in the town lit a bunch of firecrackers, which exploded in the night.

I sighed helplessly, but Brother Chengxin looked at me and said: "What's going on? Is it the kind of doomsday in the movie, where the corpses of people in the town have changed? Or am I remembering the wrong date? In fact, it was the end of the world."

It’s Spring Festival?”
