After pulling Lao Gong out of the sea,

Chapter 35 School

The dense fog that lasted for almost two months dissipated, and I returned to Gondwana City again. I don't know if it was too early, or something really happened, and the whole street was quite depressed.

People were in a hurry, and suddenly they looked a little strange. The carriage was walking in the middle of the road, and the sound of kicking even echoed.

The snowstorm the night before made the morning sun brighter a lot.

No? But the bright and shiny snow melted much faster. Besides, there were cars and horses passing by, and there were dark black stripes. The whole city was dirty, and there were even more spots in some places. A deep pit full of dirty water.

Wen Zening stood in front of a tree stump that was cut down in the middle, trying to recall what kind of tree it was in the past.He waited aside with his luggage, okay? After a while, he finally couldn't help asking, "Ningning, if you like, I can restore it."

As he spoke, He was about to reach out and touch the remaining tree stump.

Wen Zening: ...

"Let's go first? Check out the residence." Wen Zening followed the address on the envelope, checked the street signs, and walked into an alley on Third Vertical Street.

It's a bit difficult to come to the alley where only one carriage can pass, okay? After walking for a few steps, someone greeted him. A fat businessman wearing a felt hat came over to say hello with a smile. Say hello to each other?

"Professor, it's a great honor for you to come here. I will definitely do what Arthurs told me." The fat businessman and Arthurs are business partners, and Arthurs told him to help lead the way this time.

Wen Zening followed the fat businessman into a courtyard in the alley. Two fruit trees were planted in front of the courtyard. There was a screen wall when entering the door, and a small door for carriages and horses was opened on the left.

Because of the seasons, the garden in the small courtyard is not visible? It is nothing special, but the design of the house can clearly tell that the small courtyard is valuable.

The all-wooden house structure, two-story row houses facing the sun, opens the door to a burst of refreshing aroma.The house was well taken care of, and Wen Zening even came up with the idea of ​​buying the courtyard.

"If you want to buy it, I can't do it. Master, Arthurs confessed that you can live anywhere you want, but this is his long-term residence in Gondwana City. If you sell it, you have to pay another price." discuss."

After the fat businessman's introduction, he has been swimming outside the state, and he who regards himself as a transparent person suddenly asked, "Is this Dalton's residence?"

The fat businessman was taken aback, but still nodded, "Yes, Mr. Arthurs asked me to tell you that he might come to live occasionally. I think you and Arthurs are also very familiar friends, Mr. Arthurs seldom comes here, so I didn’t mention it in particular.”

After hearing this, he frowned, and his face suddenly "collapsed", as if someone was bullying him.

Arthurs Dalton was a good friend Wen Zening met when he was studying at the National University.The friendship between the two lasted for many years. Arthurs was Wen Zening's best friend many years before Bo Rong met Wen Zening.

It's just that Arthurs needs to go home to inherit the family business after graduation, and Wen Zening stayed to teach at the National University, so the two met less often, but even so, the connection between Arthurs and Wen Zening Not less.

After Bo Rong knew the existence of Arthurs, he once guessed that Arthurs might have plotted against Professor Wen before his wife awakened her spiritual power and became a guide.But his wife didn't get Arthur's intentions at all, and Arthur also felt that things should be done slowly, can't he? Can't be too hasty.

It's a pity that a sudden change happened. After Wen Zening became a guide?, he was assigned a guide course.

After finishing his studies, he was directly arranged for a blind date, which made Arthurs no chance to speak.After all, both the tower and the empire hope that the target of the guide is a sentinel, and Arthurs, who is an ordinary person, is not qualified to match.

Needless to say, the shipwreck three years ago changed a lot of things.

Wouldn't He? Like Bo Rong, he could only act coquettishly and obediently, trying to "compare Arthurs?"

He snorted, and then said to the fat businessman: "We don't want to buy the house, we just live in it temporarily, the rent will not be paid less, by the way, please tell Arthur that the landlord also has the right to come and live during the lease period. Let him die of this heart!"

The fat businessman runs errands, he? It doesn’t matter what he said. He agrees with what he said, and deeply agrees—brothers have to settle accounts clearly, but good friends, if you live in a house, you can’t pay the rent, why don’t you sign a contract? , who is to blame if you look back?

He forcefully expressed his refusal, and Wen Zening was taken aback, didn't he? He understood where his temper came from.But when you think about it carefully, this is Arthurs' residence, so it's really not good to buy it yourself.Going back? It’s good to build a house in the family courtyard? After all, this alley is really crowded, and it’s a little far away from the school.

Thinking about it in the future, Wen Zening and the fat businessman finalized the details of the lease, and the two went out to the bank to transfer money to Arthurs' account, while He was left to tidy up the room.

When going out, the fat businessman smiled and said, "You two have such a good relationship, ah."

Wen Zening didn't delve into this topic, so he asked the fat businessman what happened in Gondwana City.

"What's going on with this fog?"

The fat businessman shared his information with Wen Zening as he walked.

"The official bulletin says that heavy fog is a natural phenomenon, but anyone with a little common sense knows how it is possible for ordinary fog to be so thick. And after the heavy fog has passed, many people have disappeared. There are even many people on the side of the road. , with bloodstains and mutilated limbs."

"There are gossips. In fact, this kind of weather has appeared before. Since then, the empire has begun to study it. It is said that there are heretics who have summoned their evil gods to cause such bad weather. .”

"It is said that the fog is not? It is an ordinary fog. It is the evil gods of the heathen who cover their tracks and hide in the fog to eat. Now that the fog has cleared, it is actually those evil gods who have eaten enough and left."

"My niece works in the police station. Ever since the fog started, she has been equipped with a pair of weird magic mirrors. After wearing them, her vision is not affected by the fog at all. It is because of the black technology-like sunglasses, Ordinary people in our empire have not messed up. What 'monster?' corpses have my niece seen with her own eyes, even if they were cut into several pieces, it takes the largest forklift to take away some of them."

The fat businessman said it mysteriously, and then he said "Which evil gods and monsters? They are actually the changed version of the crazy sentinel".

Wen Zening was at a loss when he heard it, but after listening to it, he had the feeling that if he went back by himself and asked Him directly, it might be easier to know what happened.

The foggy weather caused the city of Gondwana to lose most of its vitality. It may take time for other places to slowly recover, but the students in the National University can't wait to come back.

A vacation that was extended a little bit, but still not able to go out for fun, further deteriorated the relationship between these returning students and their parents.The students who just couldn't wait to come back were shocked by the empty dormitory for a month.

Wen Zening is only a professor and does not lead the class. He didn't know about it at first, but on the first day of work, he heard his colleagues gossip about students' feedback during lunch.

Wen Zening opened the lunch box he had prepared and saw the exquisite dishes inside. He always felt that Wen Da had misled him a little bit.

But his cooking skills are still good. Wen Zening ate it seriously and took a bite of the winter bamboo shoot slices. The crunchy taste instantly defeated the "creative dishes" in the school cafeteria, and Wen Zening instantly compromised him Requirements - in the future? He will cook all lunches!

Life is good? It seems that it will return to peace like this.

After all, according to the records, the last time there was heavy fog was 50 years ago, no? What is the reason for the management? No one always thinks that there will be such a terrible thick fog in the near future.

The colleague who came back with the food in the cafeteria looked at Wen Zening's dishes, and moved to his side, expressing his desire to try the charcoal-grilled lamb chops with a charming aroma.

Wen Zening also felt that the amount was a bit large, so he divided two among his colleagues, and the colleagues reciprocated, and chatted about gossip.

"According to the information I received, in the dormitory of our school, the ones with mushrooms and grass growing inside the open door are all normal. It is said that there is a dormitory? I don't know if it was invaded by something, and the whole place is soaked In a pungent yellow-green slime. The moment you open the door, it's a nightmare."

"All the students from the School of Chemistry and the School of Medicine went to take samples, but the house must be uninhabitable."

"What is this, okay? It's not dangerous. When the door of one dormitory was opened, a group of crows flew out of it. The moment they flew out, they pecked a big hole in the head of the student who opened the door. He is still being bandaged in the school infirmary."

What happened in the student dormitory could have been published in the newspapers, Wen Zening thought so, and indeed he saw relevant reports in the next day's newspaper.

It's just that there are many vacant houses all over the city of Gondwana, and there are endless reports of this happening.What they all have in common is that during the time of fog, there was no one at home, or they could not return because of the dense fog, or they ran away early because of the news.

Wen Zening had heard about it beforehand, so he didn't take it too seriously, but when he went to see Monte, he was complained by old Monte.

"That friend of yours who needs glassware is getting more and more outlandish."

Wen Zening was puzzled, and tasted the wine handed by old Monte.

"Just to buy something."

Old Monte had been running a tavern all his life. He glanced at Wen Zening lightly and said, "Are you really alright? Okay? Have you read that book?"

"What book?" Wen Zening was suddenly asked, but Wen Zening didn't react immediately.

"Back then, your grandfather's younger sister brought back a book from Wen's family... which recorded many evil gods believed by pagans. At that time, she was obsessed with the content of that book like a madman. Later... After a while, the fog rose and she disappeared..."

After saying this, Old Monte hiccupped and fell asleep?

Don't Wen Zening know why old Monte knew his grandfather, but he was aroused by what he said, and found that he couldn't do anything? After waking up old Monte, he had to drink the wine in his glass , quickly returned home.

Wen Zening, who smelled of alcohol, came back from the outside, but he didn't care when he saw him. He just searched for the Sumerian book in the bookcase.

Seeing Ning Ning who didn't respond to him at all, he turned off the radio that was playing the bloody emotional hotline, and began to seriously consider the host's suggestion.

"It's very common for married people to lose their passion. Men are always fickle and sentimental. If you plan early, you will always be abandoned... At this time, if there is a child, the man will It's easy to compromise, tame, and become responsible."

The author has something to say: Let me explain here, this article does not intend to write about having children, men cannot have children!

(But Gong is not a man, let him think about it, don't arrest thought criminals, whisper)
