Chapter 482: Surrounded by Mosquitoes
It’s not enough to just buy the glass, you also have to pay for the installation, which is really not a small amount, and there’s still rent that hasn’t been saved…
A Ling's breathing became heavier and heavier, as if she was carrying a heavy burden, and she had to use all her strength to take a breath.
Just then, someone grabbed her shoulder.
It's Anjiu.
She smiled gently, "The glass in your room is fragile. Luckily you decisively brought the child out. If the glass had broken and all the mosquitoes had flown in, we wouldn't have dared to open the door even if you had screamed at the top of your lungs. You were right. Nothing is more important than being alive. As for the glass, maybe the government will repair it for free this time!"
Ah Ling asked anxiously, "Really? Not spending a single cent?"
"Really?" An Jiu said without lying, "Just think about it, if the glass is broken, mosquitoes will definitely fly inside. Then the building will be full of mosquitoes, and they will suck blood if they catch anyone. Those people downstairs will definitely be the first to be unable to bear it.
"The leader sent a suspended surveillance camera to check and found that the window of the resident on our floor was broken. I guess they can replace the glass in no time without your approval, so don't worry."
The mosquitoes gathered outside the building most likely because there was no food in the wilderness and they were extremely hungry, just like leeches in the mountains chasing passing creatures.
If they really rush in, it can't be just the disaster upstairs, and the people downstairs are well fed, so the blood will be even sweeter.
There's really no need for Aling to worry.
Anjiu picked up the flashlight and pointed it out the window. The dense tentacles were shaking more and more crazily. Ever since A Ling and the other two came over, it seemed that there were more mosquitoes hitting the glass.
Obviously they have more precise positioning capabilities.
The glass at home was actually not that thick. Anjiu went forward to check it and found no cracks and it would not fall off.
No problem, just let them crash into you.
The windows and iron doors were blocked, and there was nothing to do for the time being, so Anjiu sat by the bed and amused the child.
When A Ling and her grandmother saw that the mosquitoes couldn't get in, their tense mood gradually eased.
"That's a light too? I've never seen such a bright light! It's just like daytime." A Ling looked at the flashlight on the bed. Although she found it strange, she would never take it without permission.
Grandma showed it to her and said, "It's not a lamp, it's a flashlight. Xiaojiu said there are batteries in it, and it can be used after installation. It's very simple to use..."
The two of them gathered together to study the objects they had never seen before. The two children ate the snacks that Anjiu gave them and asked curiously, "Auntie, did you buy that from downstairs?"
"No," Anjiu said, "I brought it back from another world."
The kid stared, "Another world? What does it look like? Are there a lot of supplies in there?"
"It's a whole new world, and supplies... still depend on luck, but most other worlds have plenty of supplies."
"Wow~" the children's eyes were full of longing, "We want to go there when we grow up! Collect more supplies so that mom won't have to work so hard."
Anjiu patted their heads and said, "It's right to be considerate of your mother, but the other world is very dangerous. If you want to come back safely, you need a strong body, quick reaction, and a little luck~"
The children seemed to understand what she said, and looked at her with their heads tilted while holding the candies in their mouths.
"First learn how to protect yourself, your brothers, and your mother, and then you will understand what I mean."
As soon as he finished speaking, a dense "ding ding ding" sound came from the corridor, like countless sharp needles hitting the iron door.
The room suddenly became quiet.
The next second the children rushed to their mother, huddled in her arms and dared not move, their two big pairs of eyes staring at the iron gate in horror.
A Ling touched their heads, even though her faces were so pale.
Grandma squeezed in with them and pretended to be calm and said, "It's okay, you can't get in."
Anjiu walked to the door and put his ear to it. The glass window of A Ling's house was broken, and a mosquito flew in. It would probably fly into the corridor through the gap in the door in no time.
Just as I was thinking about it, something suddenly hit the iron door.
She was surprised and asked, "You came so quickly?"
"Really, really got in?!" Ah Ling's mouth became increasingly dry and she hugged the two children tightly. "With so many mosquitoes, will they suck all my blood..."
--meeting.
Anjiu summoned out space, tore it into two pieces, pasted one piece on the door and the other on the window, so that no mosquitoes would fly in.
He turned his head and comforted, "Don't worry, you can't come in."
But then more and more mosquitoes began to fly against the iron gate, as if they would swarm in at the next second, and grandma and the others really couldn't relax.
Anjiu had been lying down for several days recently, so he started to warm up and do some simple exercises.
Seeing Anjiu so leisurely, A Ling felt more or less relieved. She continued to listen to the tinkling noise for half an hour, but still didn't see any mosquitoes flying in, so she finally felt completely relieved.
She put the children to sleep and chatted quietly with her grandmother.
Anjiu continued to train, with the invisible Pu Huai beside him seriously guiding his movements.
The corridor was full of mosquitoes, so A Ling and her family couldn't leave and stayed at home that night. Fortunately, the weather was not that cold and the mattress was very thick, so they didn't feel cold even on the floor.
When I woke up naturally, the sky was still dark.
Once Anjiu turns off the flashlight, who can tell the difference between day and night?
The only thing to refer to is the time on the virtual bracelet.
Soon the flashlight ran out of battery and the house was plunged into complete darkness. Time suddenly seemed to last very long.
Grandma and A Ling had no topics to talk about. They just sat on the mats, sleeping when they were sleepy and sitting when they were awake.
"It's more uncomfortable than the rainy season, just like being in prison..." An Jiu muttered, twisting Pu Huai's fingers back and forth and pinching them from beginning to end with his fingertips.
Pu Huai sat with his back against the wall, his legs casually spread apart, and let her do whatever she wanted.
Anjiu grabbed his fingers and put them to her nose to smell them. She felt a little sorry that the clear and pleasant smell was gone.
The fingers in his palm suddenly turned around and were pulled forward skillfully, and An Jiu was caught off guard and fell into his arms.
He lowered his head and exhaled warmly, "What's wrong?"
Anjiu rubbed the itchy tip of his ear, "I remember you had a scent, but I can't smell it now."
"Hmm?" He raised his hand and smelled himself, "What exactly does it smell like?"
"Something that clears my head."
Pu Huai laughed, "What kind of description is that? You are usually calm enough."
"It's different," Anjiu broke free from his hand, "It's a bit like the air after the rain, or the forest in the early morning. It smells very fresh. I take a deep breath and feel relaxed all over."
Seeing that she liked it so much, Pu Huai smelled his wrist very seriously this time.
Anjiu shook his head regretfully, "But it's gone now."
Maybe it’s because I’m a spirit now, maybe I’ll be able to recover when I have a body in the future.
But at this moment, she seemed to smell a strange odor. She sniffed carefully and sat up suddenly.
"Kill the bugs?!"
