"You haven't done too many tasks. I want to mention a few points. First of all, most of the time, when we enter the bureau, we will be assigned identities by ourselves. The same will be true in the next game ..."

After playing, Song Gui added Lu Chu with many details that needed attention, and Lu Chu's free time was up.

He greeted Song Ji and returned to their respective rooms at the same time.

Inside pure white space.

Lu Chu went to the square screens and said the number of the task he wanted to accept. Sure enough, the next moment, the words appeared on the square screens--

"Requirement: Kill the Snake

Clue: Twenty years ago

Hint: Strange Talk "

The requirements and clues of this task are simply glanced at a glance, which makes people puzzled. Since Song Ji chose this task, he naturally has his own ideas.

Just between his thoughts, a door appeared in front of him.

It's the door again ...

Lu Chu felt that sooner or later he would get used to it.

He entered the door, lost consciousness, and when he woke up again, he was squatting in a farmyard to pick vegetables.

He didn't know what was going on now, so naturally he wouldn't fight against the grass, but continued to move his hands, but only deliberately slowed down.

He did this to wait for someone to come over, so that he could easily understand the status quo.

While picking vegetables, Lu Chu looked around, and some experienced the bluestone tiles that experienced the wind and frost, the small walls, and the same not-so-tall houses ... It was indeed the simplest country look.

In such a real world, it is hard to imagine that they are just a game, simulations again and again ... Thinking of this, Lu Chu suddenly realized that if different people could perform the same task, wouldn't everyone rise Do you exchange experiences?

After deep thinking, Lu Chu felt that he was thinking too much. Without talking about the "rules" themselves monitoring them, such a communication must be impossible-"rules" will try to stop them.

Lu Chu picked a few dishes and dragged on for a long time. Sure enough, an elderly old man came out of the house. She looked very old, her skin was slack and full of age spots, but she was very kind and kind. She saw that Lu Chu was still picking. After the dish, he smiled and asked him, "Don't you finish it?"

Lu Chu nodded quickly: "It's almost fast."

"Grandma is here to help you," said the old man, bending down quite hard.

Lu Chu immediately stopped her and lifted her up with a smile: "Grandma, just sit! I can do it myself, or grandma, you are watching me picking? I will be fine soon."

Lu Chu originally had an extremely gentle and peaceful appearance and temperament. Especially when he smiled, he always gave people endless affection. When the old man saw the situation, he also laughed at the teeth: "They say I have a good grandson. Blessed! "

The two talked and laughed for a while, and Lu Chucai was about to pick it up. Suddenly, he remembered the "strange talk" in the clues, so the grandmother, who was drawn without a trace, told him the older generation's blame. legend.

"Three feet high, there is a god." Before the old man told him a story, he said such a solemn sentence.

The elderly are mostly religious and very religious.

Lu Chu looked at the old man with a very awe-inspiring look, and at the same time looked at the old man with no lack of eager eyes.

Then the old man slowly said, "Let me tell you the story of the snake."

Cut the snake!

It didn't take long for Lu Chu to find the same thing as mentioned in the request, and she was fully attentive and listened.

The old man looked at Lu Chu kindly and laughed: "Speaking of this story, I told you when you were very young. It's been a long time. I guess you also forgot ..."

"Legend, we lived here a long, long time ago. He lived with a naughty boy. He was spoiled by his parents. Although his character was not bad, he was always bad. One day, his mother wanted him to work harder and gave it to him. He took a sickle and said to him, "Go and collect the wheat in our house. If there is a snake in the field, don't touch it, don't mess with it, and jump over where it crawls!" Too serious, just like playing, and went out with a sickle. In the field of their home, the teenager who was still a little far away from the house was playing and walking along the road, and soon came to his own field. "

Lu Chu was fascinated.

"He was obedient at the beginning. He cut the wheat for a while. I didn't expect that at this time, a snake really came in his field."

The old man paused, with a little awe on his face, and continued to say, "The snake is colorful, beautiful and tight, and it doesn't mean to hurt the young man; and the young man was just curious, bolder and bolder, seeing that Not only did he not remember his mother's words when he took the snake, he even cut it at the snake with the sickle raised, and the snake was cut in half! "

Lu Chu gave a terrified exclamation at an appropriate time, and the old man calmed and touched the top of his head. Then he continued to preach: "This time, the teenager is very happy and feels that he has done something extremely heroic. Who can think of it? The snake was lying on the ground for a while after being chopped, and then reconnected and lived again. The boy saw this, although he was a little scared, but he did not believe in this evil, he waved a sickle, and chopped the snake into seven segments, his heart Think, this time, it is done. "

"But it was only a few breaths away, and the snake linked the body together again, and it was restored. The boy was afraid, and threw a sickle and ran home. When he got home, he was still in the house. The mother shouted 'Mother! Mother! I am entangled by snakes! Come and rescue me!', His mother did not know what he did, thought he just saw a snake in the field, and the snake was wild He was chasing him without changing, so he said, "Hide in the big tank in our yard, so that it won't find you, and go away by itself." The teenager heard the word and hid in the tank Here, I was still scared to death and put the lid back on. After a while, the snake chased in. It sniffed around and crawled to the large tank. It did nothing. After three rounds of the large tank, it left. When the teenager's mother saw the snake go, she shouted, "Okay, come out now, it's gone!", But no one answered her, so she went to the large tank, opened the upper cover, and saw, the tank There is only a pool of blood in it. "

With that said, the story is over. The old man touched Chu ’s head and warned him: "Many things are spiritual, but do n’t provoke them at will. Sometimes, the older generation must listen to it. Good for you. "

Lu Chu smiled mildly and nodded obediently.

In his opinion, this story is more like a story of revenge, except for that myth. However, Song Gui is still missing, and Lu Chu can only put further exploration on hold for a while.

The old man told the story and went into the house to pack things.

While Lu Chu was still immersed in the story, there was a loud noise outside his yard. Lu Chu put down the vegetables in his hand and walked over to find a unkempt woman squatting on the ground and tearing. Roaring heartbroken. Her hair was long and messy, completely covering her face, and Lu Chu couldn't see what she looked like.

Just listen to the sound of the discussion that is gradually sounding from the crowd around--

"It's this lunatic again ..."

"Crazy woman, take your children a little bit further, don't get embarrassed!"

"Make evil, make evil ..."

After the mad woman yelled a few times, the voice gradually lowered, choking, as if talking to herself, Lu Chu closed her eyes and raised her ears, so that she could roughly understand what she said--

"You don't understand. The stories are deceiving ..."

"In the story, the desperate actor was rescued, and he would see that person as a light in their lives. They would rely on each other and believe ... But nothing is different with me. I saved him. Help him ... Every time in his life that is desperate and needs someone to accompany him, I spent with him ... but why, he only looked at the other person from beginning to end ... "

"I don't understand. I just want to be with him ..."

"She later told me everything was because I wasn't beautiful enough. I didn't look good, I didn't look good, I ... I didn't look good!"

Free here, the woman started screaming again and again, crying and laughing, telling others to avoid it like a scorpion, making Lu Chu confused.

People around began to talk again and again, and one of the village women said, "For so many years, just to say, just a few words that I love him, he doesn't love me, and for me to see, women should not give themselves Those men whose origins are unknown should deserve to be sinned all their lives! "

As soon as the village woman said this, she heard the mad woman start madly chanting again: "He said that woman helped him a lot, so he spent the hardest time in his life ..."

"A lot of help ... in the end, it's just a face ..."

"It's so sad, I'm vocal about the hypocrisy of this world, saying that people who are different from others are blinded by the simplest appearance ..."

These few words she said were extremely quiet, like talking to herself, and to the air, except for Lu Chu, who was sharp in hearing, no third person heard what she was saying. Do not know why, so that Lu Chu cares about her inexplicably.

So he dragged the people next to him and said, "Is this lunatic--"

The man immediately replied, "Yes, it's the crazy madwoman in our village who was stupid twenty years ago. Your younger generations should be a little farther away from her, so as not to get tarnished."

The author has something to say:

The story of the snake-cutting was told when I lived in the country when I was very young. My grandmother told me that. I liked this strange legend at that time, so that when I saw the sickle and stayed away for a while, it was a childhood shadow.
