Chapter 56 Sitting
Just as Xiao Ran was about to scream, Dr. Zhao immediately covered her mouth from behind.
The scream turned into a muffled groan, suppressed in the throat.
Dr. Zhao saw that the three people who had just gone out had stopped moving, and curiously followed them out to see, but saw such a weird scene, and almost lost his soul.
None of the four people dared to make a sound, and quietly looked at the "man" in front of them who looked like a cricket.
He was seen swinging his hind legs quickly like a bug, and the whole person kept changing directions, as if looking for something, and from time to time he raised the two blood holes on his face to look around.
His neck twisting was not like a human, but like an insect, fast, and the twisting amplitude was also terrifying.
A few seconds later, the "man" suddenly jumped high and jumped towards the wall of the convenience store.
Qi Xia hurriedly raised the torch to illuminate, trying to follow the other party's figure. After all, in this dark environment, the most taboo is to lose the target's whereabouts.
But the moment the torch was raised, even with Qi Xia's psychological quality, his legs almost weakened and he sat on the ground.
The walls illuminated by the fire were densely covered with "people".
There were at least a dozen of them, all moving quickly on the wall.
As soon as the fire shone, they seemed to sense something and crawled towards the darkness.
They looked like crickets, cockroaches, and spiders.
In short, they didn't look like people.
Qi Xia only felt that all the hairs on his body slowly stood up.
On the way to the convenience store with Ringo in the dark, he had heard the sound of insects one after another.
The sound of insects was sometimes far away, sometimes very close.
It turned out that they were not insects... but "people" one by one.
When he thought about the ground beside him and Ringo as they were moving forward, and the walls not far away were all filled with such things...
This feeling can't even be described as "fear".
Qi Xia shed a trace of cold sweat, slowly turned around, and waved to a few people.
Everyone also understood what he meant and slowly retreated.
Qi Xia held a torch, stared at the "person" on the wall, and then retreated step by step into the room with the three people behind him.
They didn't dare to make a sound the whole time, and their movements were extremely slow.
These people seemed to have their eyes dug out, and they could only find their position by sound. Fortunately, everyone knew that saving their lives was important, so no one made a sound.
After closing the door, Qi Xia took a wooden board from the side and propped it behind the door. Everyone continued to retreat, all the way to the corner of the wall.
This cold and mottled wall gave everyone a sense of security.
"What on earth is that..." Xiao Ran asked tremblingly.
"It's a human..." Doctor Zhao shook his head immediately after he finished speaking, "No... Human skeletons can't make that kind of movement, they can only be bugs..." Qi Xia took a deep breath and said, "I also heard the rustling sound last night, which means these things didn't appear today, but have always been there." He turned around and said to Ringo with a serious face, "We are so lucky that we didn't step on these things along the way..." Ringo also nodded in shock, looking very scared. The four people fell into silence. Before seeing this terrible scene, perhaps everyone could still sleep well at night. But at this time, everyone dared not close their eyes, they could only lean against the wall and stare at the door, guarding against those things breaking in at any time. The night without sleepiness and sound was particularly long. Everyone stood by the wall for half a night, and now their waists and legs were sore. They gradually discovered a problem. Those "bugs" outside the door seemed to be just bugs. They didn't want to break into this brightly lit place at all.
Qi Xia was using the rules here to explain the phenomenon here.
No matter how weird they look, even if their eyes are always bleeding, they are just bugs.
If "bugs" and "shop assistants" are the same thing, they will definitely play their roles seriously.
In this way, the bugs outside the door will not be too dangerous. Even if they will actively attack humans, they may not necessarily slam the door in groups.
Thinking of this, Qi Xia slowly sat down and moved his sore limbs.
Seeing someone taking the lead, the other three also sat down, but they were still nervous.
"Qi Xia...what should we do?" Ringo asked.
Qi Xia touched his chin and said, "Let's sleep."
"Sleep?"
"Sleep for a while, save your energy." Qi Xia found a clean wooden board and laid it next to Ringo. "We'll set out after dawn to find Officer Li."
"But those outside the door..."
"Don't worry." Qi Xia said nonchalantly, "They won't come in. As long as we don't go out, there will be no danger for the time being." Ringo nodded cautiously like a child and lay down.
Qi Xia also came to the corner, found a clean wooden board to cover the pot, and sat on the board to press the pot.
Xiao Ran and Dr. Zhao looked at each other, and then looked at Qi Xia and Ringo.
How could they sleep?
\u003c/di\u003e
Even if he could completely ignore the bugs outside the door, Xiao Ran always felt that Qi Xia was a dangerous person.
In the story told at the beginning, he was a fraudster who defrauded two million. How could such a person be a good person?
If you sleep with him, will you die inexplicably again in the early morning of the next day?
Qi Xia didn't care at all about the expressions of Xiao Ran and Dr. Zhao. Instead, she leaned against the wall and closed her eyes to rest.
For him, even if these two people stayed up all night, it had nothing to do with him.
Lin Ju, who was lying on the wooden board, looked at Qi Xia sitting in the corner. He couldn't bear it, so he moved to the side and said, "Qi Xia, this wooden board is big enough. You can also lie down on it."
Qi Xia raised her eyelids and said, "No, I'm used to sleeping sitting up."
"Sit and sleep?" Lin Ju thought for a moment after hearing this, stood up, moved the board to Qi Xia, then lay down again, and continued, "Then you can sit next to me and sleep."
Qi Xia did not refuse. Compared with Xiao Ran and Dr. Zhao, Lin Ju left a pretty good impression on him.
Lin Ju lay on the wooden board, looked at Qi Xia with some curiosity, and asked, "Why are you used to sleeping sitting up?"
Qi Xia raised her eyebrows after hearing this, and then thought about the problem seriously: "Because sleeping while sitting will not let me enter a "relaxed" state, and can make my brain start functioning at any time."
Ringo nodded, but seemed to have thought of something else: "Have you always slept sitting up?"
"Yes."
"Has it been like this for many years?"
Qi Xia felt that Lin Yu was very strange, so he turned to look at her: "Is this question important?"
Ringo swallowed, compiled his words, and finally asked: "But you have a wife... Even if you two live together, do you still sleep sitting up every night?"
