My Endless Life

Chapter 443 Cycle

Looking at the fire in the stove, Sun Yu sighed.

She had just finished breakfast and heard her father say that Old Wu's family had no candles, but she knew in her heart that Old Wu's family did not have no candles, they just did not want to give them.

Sun Yu understood this. From the arrival of the Eternal Night until now, the sun has not shown any signs of coming out, and now it has lost electricity and lost contact with the government.

Now that no one knows how long the Eternal Night will last, anything that can exist as a light source is an extremely precious item.

Although Old Wu's family sells candles, they can also understand the preciousness of candles in today's era, so how can they lend them to others unconditionally?

Sun Yu knew this clearly, and her mother knew this too.

During the meal, Sun Yu could see that her mother wanted to say something several times, but she was embarrassed to really scold her because her cousins ​​who came to visit and were trapped here were here.

Picking up the coal next to her, Sun Yu threw two more pieces into the stove, and couldn't help sighing:

"Alas, when will this day end?"

"...Cousin, can you tell me what's going on at the Wu family next door?"

Just as Sun Yu finished sighing, a nice child's voice rang in her ears, which startled her.

Turning around, she saw the cute little cousin who looked like a ceramic doll standing next to her, looking at her with sparkling eyes.

After staring at him for a while, Sun Yu realized that the kindness in her cousin's eyes was because the flames in the stove were reflected in his eyes, not because his eyes could really emit light.

After a moment of daze, Sun Yu remembered her cousin's question. Hearing her cousin's tone like a little adult, she couldn't help but raised her hand and pinched the other's smooth little face, smiling:

"What old Wu, you should call him Grandpa Wu."

"Oh... What's the situation at Grandpa Wu's home?"

The little adult was not angry because of Sun Yu's pinching of his face. He tilted his head and asked in a mature tone, but the childish voice in his voice always made people laugh.

Sun Yu's depressed mood was much better because of her cousin's voice. She tilted her head and recalled, and replied:

"Grandpa Wu's family sells funeral products, so there are a lot of wax at home. When the power was cut off before, people in our village borrowed candles from him."

"So candles are burned for the dead? It's not auspicious to use this kind of wax, right?"

"At this time, it's enough to survive, and it doesn't matter whether it's auspicious or not... Besides, now we can't even use this kind of 'unlucky' wax."

Sun Yu sighed.

If electricity is still there, if the world is still normal, who would go to the funeral shop to buy the red and white wax for the dead?

In the final analysis, it is because they are about to die, so they can accept everything and use everything.

Hearing what Sun Yu said, Li Qi nodded in agreement.

This is because the Dream Town is not bound by the rules of the world, and it has complete functions. Li Qi also brought several large diesel generators in, so there is no need to worry about power outages.

Otherwise, Li Qi would probably have to worry about the problem of light source.

No... There seems to be candles that can be refreshed infinitely in the Dream Town...

Because it has not been used for a long time, Li Qi almost forgot the candles in the Dream Town, but the things in the Dream Town cannot be taken out, so even if he thinks of it now, it is useless.

It is better to go back and modify the oil lamp of Sun Yu's house to increase its endurance.

Li Qi chatted with Sun Yu, and Li Qiao followed Sun Zhongguo back outside the door. As soon as she came back, Li Qi turned his eyes to her direction.

Li Qi's eyes were blind, but his mental power was connected to Li Qiao.

The moment the two of them connected mentally, they tacitly decided to go back to the room to chat.

"Have you investigated it clearly?"

Li Qi asked Li Qiao as soon as he entered the room.

"Yeah."

Li Qiao nodded slightly and whispered to Li Qi:

"I checked it out. There are seven families in this village now, with a total of 25 people... The rest either went to the underground city for refuge or froze to death outside."

"What is their attitude towards you?"

"They seem to really think of me as Uncle Sun's distant niece."

Li Qiao frowned and said to Li Qi, "This place seems a bit weird, won't there be any problems?"

Li Qi knew what Li Qiao was worried about, and he explained: "It can be confirmed that this place has nothing to do with pollution. It should be some strange things, or... a special phenomenon similar to the rainforest."

This village looks ordinary, just a small village struggling to survive in the doomsday.

The people here were unable to take refuge in the underground city for various reasons, but chose to stay in the village and decided to live and die with the village.

There are probably many such villages on Chinese soil. After all, the situation is urgent, and even the government does not have so much time to rescue all the villages around the town.

And after experiencing the underground city incident, Li Qi felt that their decision saved their lives.

At least the underground city is now full of pollution, and the residents in the city have suffered heavy casualties. Those of them outside the underground city only need to consider how to maintain the room temperature and light source.

It should have been like this.

But judging from the attitude of the Sun family towards the Li siblings today, this village is obviously not normal.

Thinking of this, Li Qi thought of the mysterious shadow that led him here.

The shadow obviously led Li Qi here for a purpose, but I don’t know what her purpose is.

"What do you say now? Do you want to continue living here?"

Li Qiao saw Li Qi thinking deeply and waited for a while before asking him.

The village is a bit weird. According to Li Qiao's idea, of course he should stay away from such a weird place as soon as possible, but he didn't know what Li Qi was thinking.

"Stay for two more days." Li Qi made a decision: "The ancient ruins are nearby. Let's search for another two days. If we can't find any trace of the ancient ruins, we will leave here."

"Okay, it's up to you."

Li Qiao focused on Li Qi. After listening to Li Qi's words, she said nothing more. Instead, she looked into Li Qi's eyes and changed the subject and asked, "How are your eyes recovering?"

"How much you can recover in a day, but at least you can see the light, which is a good thing."

Li Qi explained casually.

Because he casually looked at the witch-god statue, he was temporarily blinded, which made Li Qi regain his fear of the unknown.

But this awe only lasted for one day.

After all, Li Qi's eyes recovered some vision after only one day. This made Li Qi relieved and at the same time, he was no longer so wary of the laws of heaven in this world.

Of course, that's what I mean. Compared to the time when he was fearless and wanted to take a curious look at everything he saw, Li Qi is much more restrained now.

At least he wouldn't be brave enough to just watch questionable stuff without doing any research.

Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!

His eyes were still recovering, and Li Qi estimated that it would take about five days for his 'deprived' vision to gradually recover.

Before that, he could stay here and rest.

At least you don’t have to worry about pollution here.

Li Qi originally thought so until early the next morning, Sun Zhongguo pushed the door in from the outside again.

"I went to Lao Wutou's house and they said they had run out of wax."

This was the first sentence Li Qi heard from Sun Zhongguo after returning from Dream Town.

Hearing the words that were almost exactly the same as yesterday, and seeing the Sun family's reaction that was exactly the same as yesterday, he suddenly had an uncertain guess in his mind.

"…cycle?"

"Huh?" Sun Zhongguo seemed to have heard Li Qi's mumbling, but he didn't ask anything. Instead, he smiled at Li Qi like he did yesterday:

"Xiao An, are you awake? Go and eat as soon as you wake up. Your cousin and aunt should have already prepared the meal."

"..."

Li Qi didn't say anything. He looked at Sun Zhongguo with his mental strength for a long time before turning around and following Li Qiao to the dining table to eat.

The food on the table is the same as yesterday, and even the placement has not changed.

Coupled with the same behavior and reaction from the Sun family as yesterday, it added a bit of weirdness to this small room.

Everyone finished the meal in silence.

The Sun family was still thinking about the candles, while Li Qi and Li Qiao were thinking about this weird cycle.

After breakfast was over and Li Qiao saw that Li Qiao had something to say, Li Qicai immediately set up a soundproof barrier and looked at her.

Li Qiao asked immediately:

"What's going on? Are we in some kind of loop?"

Li Qiao didn't do anything after being brought into this world by Li Qi.

At least she has watched a lot of movies and TV series, so she can understand the concept of 'loop' and speak it easily.

Li Qi turned to look at the Sun family members who were warming up around the stove. In the spiritual world, the body structure and temperature of the three of them were very normal, including their mental strength, which was at the level of ordinary people. It was not like they could Create a loop.

Because of this, Li Qi felt strange about the cycle that occurred at this time.

"It seems so, but why aren't we affected?"

Li Qi, who answered after a long time, turned around and asked another question.

But Li Qiao couldn't answer Li Qi's question. She frowned and wanted to leave again.

"It's too strange here, why don't we go back."

The stranger the place, the more dangerous it is.

Compared with the rainforest that Li Qiao and Sun Xiaoqing had entered, Li Qiao felt that this village was more dangerous!

After all, the dangers in the rainforest can be seen and felt intuitively, but the dangers in this village are invisible and intangible.

Who knows if they might become part of the cycle if this continues?

"Just wait and see."

After a while, Li Qi said to Li Qiao: "At present, there seems to be no other danger here. If we wait two days, if something really happens, I will go back to the town to take refuge without you telling me."

The weirder the place, the more curious it will arouse Li Qi.

It just so happened that the village here was near a historic site, and Li Qi's intuition told him that the special situation here might be related to the historic site.

In order to find the ancient ruins here, Li Qi could not leave like this.

Wait at least two more days, and it's not too late to run again when you are in real danger.
