Chapter 2 Is it really only three days to live?
After a sleep in the village chief's quilt, Xia Shouyi woke up early the next morning.
However, what made Xia Shouyi both nervous and excited was that he seemed to have traveled to another world.
What's even more strange is that his face and body actually "regressed" to the way he looked when he was eleven or two years old.
"So... the reason why I traveled into this world must be the pot of the amnesty talisman!" Xia Shouyi was sure that the amnesty talisman sold to him by the hawker, which claimed to be able to bless his own luck, would definitely not be a serious one.
However, what made Xia Shouyi feel sad was that other people's travels through time were golden fingers, old man, system, etc. Why did he have nothing to do when he arrived here?
Xia Shouyi no longer knew how many silently he called "Grandpa", "Golden Finger Dad" and "System Big Brother", but... he didn't respond.
Xia Shouyi knew that the talisman that burned and kowtowed in his previous life must be a treasure, but unfortunately, the talisman that was burned to the point of not even being ashes left, otherwise it would not be "angrily" to throw itself into this other world!
Xia Shouyi believed that the talisman of the amnesty was probably thinking of dying with him, so he "gets" himself into this world.
Xia Shouyi felt very sad.
It would be fine if he was thrown into another world. Anyway, he was also a person who was content with everything. Since he came to this world, there would be no need to worry too much about the past. After all, even if he continued to struggle, it would be useless. Could it be that he could still struggle to return to his original world?
But what made Xia Shouyi feel was that he was thrown into this other world without golden fingers, so it would be fine if the old man and the system were not there. What's worse is that this world seems to be very dangerous!
As for how Xia Shouyi knew that this other world was dangerous, it was not that someone in the village told him, but that after he walked around the village, he noticed many inappropriate and creepy points.
First of all, the most direct feeling is not the irrationality of the "staffing" in this village, which made Xia Shouyi realize the reason why there was something wrong with this other world at the first time, or the layer of mist shrouded over this village!
Nonsense, have you seen a ghost-like thing floating out from time to time in the mist above a normal village?
Although these "ghosts" seem to be unable to contact the villagers living on the ground, even so, they feel very scary to see.
The reason why Xia Shouyi kept calling out the possible golden fingers, the old man and the system, was because the "environment" in this village forced him to "get" these things as soon as possible, otherwise he would not even have a chance to resist.
Especially when the villagers in the village looked at them, Xia Shouyi always felt that they were pitying themselves while breathing a sigh of relief. Such a gaze made Xia Shouyi extremely uncomfortable!
In short, Xia Shouyi believed that it was the most urgent thing to leave the village as soon as possible.
But, can the villagers really let him leave this village easily?
Soon, at the village chief’s home where Xia Shouyi was staying, Xia Shouyi learned from the village chief that this village was "permitted to enter but not leave"!
The village chief had no intention of hiding Xia Shouyi at all. Under Xia Shouyi's inquiry, he informed Xia Shouyi of the reasons for the occurrence of this "rule".
Simply put, there is a very powerful ghost who is eyeing this village!
On the tenth day after the beginning of spring every year, the village needs to prepare a "sacrifice" for it to satisfy the ghost's desire.
Originally, Xia Shouyi hadn't thought much, but after getting into the village chief's meaningful gaze, thinking of the layer of mist containing "ghosts" in the sky above the village, Xia Shouyi couldn't help but burst into tears in his heart. He immediately asked carefully:
"The so-called 'sacrificial gift' should be chicken, duck, fish, meat, etc... right?"
Facing Xia Shouyi's inquiry, the village chief chuckled, but did not answer him.
Now, Xia Shouyi's face became even more ugly - this so-called "sacrifice" could be a human being, right?
For the sake of his own safety, Xia Shouyi was even more eager to leave the village.
However, as the village chief said before, this village is "permitted to enter but not leave". Once it steps out of the village, it will be encroached by the ghost.
Of course, as the "rules" say, outsiders will not be threatened when entering the village - this is also the fundamental reason why Xia Shouyi can safely enter the village!
However, since I have entered the village, I want to go out, but I can no longer do so.
Based on the information in hand now, if the "sacrifice" is really human, then it is certain that this time the "sacrifice" should be the foreigner who "miserably entered" into this village.
"Golden Finger, Grandpa and the System, if you really exist, please make a sound. No matter what, I can't just 'kneel' at the beginning, right?" Xia Shouyi murmured in a low voice.
Unfortunately, the response to Xia Shouyi was still silent.
...
...
Xia Shouyi, who had been wandering around the village for a day, planned to return to the bed and rest for a while, but he never thought that as soon as he returned to the village chief's house, he was frightened by the situation at the village chief's house.
I saw that the villagers in the village gathered here, but none of them made a sound, and they all quietly looked at Xia Shouyi, who had just returned to the village chief's house.
"That... do you have something to do? You are busy! You are busy! I'll go out first!" Xia Shouyi was nervous, smiled and slowly stepped back.
"No need to go out. We are waiting for you here. Since we are back, it's just right, let's listen together. Anyway, this matter is related to you." The village chief spoke lightly, stopping Xia Shouyi from trying to exit the door.
Now, Xia Shouyi felt even more crisis and wanted to escape, but when he saw two big, big, round-strapped, round-waisted men blocking the gate from some time, Xia Shouyi stayed helplessly.
There is no way, just like him, who has little arms and legs, he doesn't have the ability to escape!
"No wonder people always say in the previous life that if they really travel through time, it is probably difficult for them to survive for three days because of various emergencies!" Xia Shouyi said in his heart with great sorrow, "I guess this is really called "I can't live for three days!"
