C14 The Voice in the Dream

"Let him in first!" Lau Lidao also followed him out. He pulled Little Wai, who was blocking the door, and helped Jin Shiqi into the house. Little Wai closed the door that was open for the middle of the night.

"Damn it! This bunch of dogs!" Before Jin Shiqi could sit down, he took the initiative to curse.

"What's wrong? Did they hit you?" Little Wai asked with concern.

"No!" Jin Shiqi sat down, grabbed the food and took two big bites, then drank some water.

"Do you know where these people live?" Jin Shiqi asked.

"Nonsense! Of course we don't know!" Lau Lidao urged Jin Shiqi to quickly explain the situation.

"Their leader lives in the southeast corner of the city, in the most remote corner. As long as he crosses the wall, he will be outside the city!"

"Leader? Isn't it that Little Skeleton?" Little Wai asked.

"Little Skeleton is just a small figure! I went to Little Skeleton's place first, then followed him to that place! "

"Huh, it's quite mysterious!" Lau Lidao asked. "What does their leader look like? Why did he look for you? "

"I wonder what he looks like! That guy has been hiding behind the black tent. Judging from his voice, he shouldn't be young anymore! "

"Hey! He's still hiding and not seeing anyone!" Little Wai interrupted with disdain.

"He is asking me what the Super System told me when they were checking in Bodyguard Battalion. Damn it, I really saw a ghost. These people seem to know something!"

"You told him?" Lau Lidao asked.

"I told him! It was useless anyway!" Jin Shiqi glanced at Lau Lidao. "If I don't tell him when we get there, I'm just waiting to get beaten up!"

In fact, Jin Shiqi still held back a little and did not say anything. However, he was almost forced to hold back. When the Super System wanted him to keep the secret, and Jin Shiqi was about to say it out loud, for some reason, his brain suddenly could not help but spout a bunch of nonsense.

"I'm just curious why that guy is so interested in this! And he made me say it twice!" Jin Shiqi furrowed his brows, as if he could not figure it out.

"Hey! Don't think about that! It's best if you can come back safely!" Lau Lidao opened his mouth and yawned. "We were planning to hold on until dawn, and then we would immediately report to Bodyguard Battalion!"

"Humph! I think you want to see Ni Yiren!" Jin Shiqi remembered that Lau Lidao had fought with him because of her.

"Hehe! Why are you talking about this?" Lau Lidao smiled embarrassedly. "Sleep! Sleep!" After saying that, he was the first to turn over and lie down.

Little Wai looked at Jin Shiqi. "Old Jin, sleep! You are not tired after working for the whole day!"

Jin Shiqi smiled and said, "Go to sleep! I still need to think about it!"

Actually, Jin Shiqi did not think about it for long. The scene only appeared in his mind. In less than 30 seconds, Jin Shiqi was dragged into a dream by exhaustion.

In his sleep, the scene was completely recreated.

Little Skeleton led him to the southeast corner of City G. Along the way, he kept urging him to leave quickly. He also looked around from time to time, as if he was worried that someone would see them.

Jin Shiqi had never been to this region before. The walls were broken, the bricks were broken, and the houses collapsed. Small mammals ran across the street from time to time. Little Skeleton walked in front, as if he had two legs of different length. His body was sometimes high and sometimes low.

Behind those broken walls and collapsed houses, there would occasionally be a head sticking out, staring at Little Skeleton and Jin Shiqi until they disappeared behind another broken wall. These people were the sentries that were set up to protect the leader.

The place Little Skeleton took him to was under the outer wall. A few houses were close to the city wall. Jin Shiqi suspected that there must be a door on the city wall. It could directly lead to the wilderness outside the city where wild beasts and hunters coexisted.

Jin Shiqi could not remember how many people had told him about the dangers of the wilderness outside the city. Everyone who told him about it seemed to have experienced it personally. From what they had said, as long as he stepped into that land... They would die instantly, not be bitten to death by wild beasts. It was shot by the poachers.

He followed Little Skeleton into one of the houses, but Little Skeleton had disappeared. What happened next crossed with his previous dream. The sticky black and strange sound merged with the scene in the room.

Jin Shiqi could no longer tell whether this was a dream or the real scene he saw yesterday. He did not know whether he was awake or asleep. The only thing that made him feel different was that the voice kept saying something.

"Come with me, I will give you a different life!"

What the f * ck did this mean? Different life? A dog is also a different life from me! Jin Shiqi cursed in his heart as he was woken up by Little Wai.

"Hey! What kind of dream are you having again!?" Lau Lidao and Little Wai stood beside Jin Shiqi's bed. The two of them... Four eyes looked at him with smiles. "You are different from dogs! Don't worry!" Lau Lidao had an evil smile on his face.

"You are talking in your sleep!" Little Wai reminded Jin Shiqi kindly.

"Ah! Damn it!" Jin Shiqi wiped his face with his hand. The awkward expression on his face was also wiped off along with his hand. It became his normal expression, "I am different from you!" Jin Shiqi glanced at Lau Lidao.

"Haha!" Little Wai laughed as he looked at Lau Lidao, who wanted to take advantage of him but was called a dog instead.

Lau Lidao's face darkened. He could not think of any words to fight back, so he could only use the word "send!" to cover himself.

"It's your turn to get food today, why aren't you going?!" Jin Shiqi asked Lau Lidao.

"I slept too late yesterday. I just woke up! If I go now, I'm afraid it will be too late!" Lau Lidao said with a slightly resentful tone.

"Then hurry up and go! You want to drink the wind and eat dirt tomorrow!" Jin Shiqi scolded, "Maybe Ni Yiren will lead a team to distribute food again today!" He added another sentence that was the most motivating to Lau Lidao.

Lau Lidao glared at Jin Shiqi. He jumped up with a whoosh and walked out of the door. He turned around and disappeared outside the door.

"It's over. I'm afraid I will starve tomorrow." Jin Shiqi looked at Lau Lidao's back as he left and said worriedly, "Little Wai, why didn't you rush him to get the food?"

"Ah! Both of us just woke up!" Little Wai said guiltily. "If I didn't get the food, I would eat less today and leave some for tomorrow."

"That won't do! If you want to eat less, the three of us will eat less!" Jin Shiqi did not want Little Wai to bear the responsibility alone, "Especially Lau Lidao, this brat, eat less!"

After the two of them ate a few mouthfuls of today's food, they did not dare to eat more. They sat in front of the table and blankly waited for Lau Lidao, waiting for tomorrow's result.

Time passed between the two of them. They looked at each other speechlessly, like lovers who were reluctant to leave. They did not want to leave for a long time. They swam around them, stirring up the fire in their hearts.

"Could something have happened to this kid again!?" Jin Shiqi was aroused by the situation that kept happening in the past two days.

"What could have happened to him?" Wang Yao asked. Little Wai did not think too much about it. He was a happy and simple person.

"What could have happened to him? For example, when this kid saw Cold Beauty again, he was momentarily blinded and even wanted to take advantage of her!" Lau Lidao even made Jin Shiqi angry because of Ni Yiren's sudden attack on him.

"Hehe! Does he have the guts?!" Although Little Wai was simple, he was not stupid. He knew very well about his friends whom he had been with for many years.

"Haha! What are you two talking about behind my back?" Before Lau Lidao entered the room, his voice passed through the thin door and entered first. "I heard it all!"

"Clang!" Lau Lidao walked in before the door and smiled proudly. "You don't have to starve tomorrow! Haha!"

"Humph! Consider yourself lucky, kid!" Jin Shiqi glanced at the food bag in his hand. "Otherwise, you can only eat half of the food today. The rest will be left for the two of us to eat tomorrow!"

"Hehe! So you are thinking of me!" Lau Lidao glanced at Jin Shiqi and Little Wai.

"The guards who distributed the food today, why haven't they returned yet?" Jin Shiqi thought about this suspicious point.

"What hasn't returned yet? He has already returned!" Lau Lidao proudly threw the food onto the table. This time, the table chose to silently bear it.

"Where did the food come from?" Little Wai was just about to go get the food bag when he pulled his hand back.

"Hehe! You definitely wouldn't have thought of this!" Lau Lidao shook his head and laid back on his bed.
