Chapter 58: The Night of Horror and the Mystery of the Village (1) For love to meet God's treasure
When we were silent, Chengzhen had already come in with a plate of vegetables, steaming, it was the vegetables in the farmyard, and there was a smell of fragrance.
"What do you say? Wash your hands and get ready to eat, a bunch of lazy people. Chengzhen glanced at us, then put down the food and went out, we were indeed hungry, so we all went to the table, the old man insisted on not eating with us, she didn't eat supper, saying that it was not conducive to health.
Hearing this, I didn't have anything on the surface, but I was surprised in my heart, and my previous thoughts were more certain, I am afraid that this old man is not as simple as a simple lonely old man, but after all, to a certain extent, we are strangers, how can I ask so much about other people's affairs?
The dish is two plates of pickled fish, the farmer's bacon fried garlic sprouts, fresh fried vegetables, mixed cucumbers, plus a large pot of sour bamboo shoots and fresh fish soup, accompanied by fragrant rice, we all gobble up on the table one by one, and we can't even bother to speak.
The old man watched us eat for a while, and then he said that he was tired and wanted to go back to the room to rest, but before entering the room, as if he was not at ease, he turned to us and said, "At night, just sleep well, no matter what happens, don't walk around, it's not good to bump into it." ”
I was eating Zhengxiang, but suddenly I heard the old man say this, and I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, was it bumping into it, or was there something else hidden? I was about to ask, but the old man had already entered the room and closed the door.
"Chengyi, what do you think?" Xiao Chengqian picked up the bowl and drank a bowl of soup and snorted, where is there still a little bit of the elegance of the eldest young master? Next to him promised to laugh at him, he was not happy, and the education promised: "The highest state of the so-called elegant demeanor is what kind of thing to do in what kind of place, for example, elegance in this environment is that men want to eat a lot, which is a kind of manly elegance." ”
"It's a crooked stomach, no wonder it's from an improper organization." Chengyuan snorted and ignored Xiao Chengqian.
Young Master Xiao didn't bother to pay attention to her, wiped his mouth, looked at me and said, "Chengyi, what about you, why are you in a daze?" ”
"Don't you know? This old man is not that simple, do you have to ask Chengyi? Brother Chengxin helped his glasses, and glanced at Xiao Chengqian with disdain while whispering.
"Nonsense, don't ask him to ask who to go? We still have to build a few boats or something in this village, and we still have to live or something, and now others mean to drive us away, hmm" Xiao Chengqian was excited, and his voice involuntarily became louder, and then he was covered by Brother Chengqing, who had been silent next to him.
This young master Xiao, it's a pity that his feminine and handsome appearance makes him feel like a bandit the more he comes into contact with him.
But what Xiao Chengqian said was indeed a problem, but I was a little tired, I don't know why I didn't want to think about these problems this night, Lu Shan said while picking up vegetables: "Let's talk about it tomorrow, this old lady has this attitude, but not necessarily other villagers have this attitude." ”
Tao Bai smiled shyly, carefully sandwiched a piece of fish meat to Lu Shan, and said, "Brother Shan, eat quickly." You just have a way. ”
"I'm X, don't you want to be so numb! Tauber, you're not a girl, are you? As soon as Xiao Chengqian broke free from Brother Chengqing, he began to babble again.
But Lu Shan put down his chopsticks, gently touched Tao Bai's hair, and said to us seriously: "Don't talk about him like that, this child is actually a bitter child, and I have always taken care of him like an elder brother." ”
Tao Bai lowered his head a little lower, and even the vegetables were a little cringe, I glanced at Tao Bai, and then gave him a large chopstick bacon, and said, "Eat quickly!" But I was thinking in my heart, could it be that this Tao Bai also has some secrets? I couldn't help but think of his somewhat astonishing powers.
The meal was finished like this, and a few of us who didn't cook were responsible for cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, and the night was already very late.
No one still has too much spirit to say anything, simply assigned the room, we went to sleep, I hit the floor, Hui Gen'er slept next to me, this kid is still the same, as soon as he dips his pillow and falls asleep, and I smoked a cigarette, hesitated for a long time, and then fell asleep with some hesitation.
Yes, I was a little resistant, I was afraid of having that strange dream again, but in the end, I couldn't withstand the fatigue accumulated in the past few days, and after thinking about it for a few minutes, I fell asleep unconsciously.
The night in the mountain village is quiet, and the space also carries a unique water vapor by the lake, gently surrounding people, and soon only the sound of breathing and snoring is left in the room.
In a daze, I seemed to know very well that I had not dreamed, that I had not seen the big black and white courtyard again, and that I heard the voice calling to me, 'Chen Nuo, Chen Nuo'.
I fell into a strange satisfaction, but for some reason, in this foggy village, the nights were always so cold, and I fell asleep with goosebumps.
It's early summer, so we didn't prepare any special quilts, so we slept with a blanket on two people.
It's too cold, it's too cold, I didn't think about why it was so cold in a daze, and subconsciously pulled the blanket, but found that this kid Huigen'er wrapped the blanket so tightly that he couldn't pull it! But it tore me awake
There was a dog barking in the distance, but it soon ceased, and after a sobbing and weeping-like hiss, it fell silent again.
When Master was a child, he always liked to tell me some folk sayings, such as a particularly powerful dog barking in the middle of the night sometimes can't explain anything, but there are a few things that are exquisite, and if these are the cases, then as a Taoist priest, you should explore it.
One of them, I remember, was that the dog barked very hard at first, but after barking a few times, it made a snorting sound like being beaten, and then it was quiet, so I saw something terrible.
Is that so? I was so cold that I couldn't sleep, I sat up all of a sudden, and the person woke up instantly, and began to think about this problem, but I didn't feel too scared, just because this place is close to the Lake of Ten Thousand Ghosts, and it is close to that place, it is strange that there are no ghosts wandering, and I don't particularly care about the ordinary ghosts, after all, I am still a Taoist, but it is difficult for the people here to adapt to the environment here.
The people here? When I think of that old lady, my mind is complicated, if the people here are like this old lady, what does it mean? this village
As soon as I looked up, I saw that it was the night wind blowing the window, and the sound was made, perhaps because of the deep night, the fog outside was thicker, and from the open window I could see the thick fog surging into the room, and then drifting away, like a hallucination.
"No wonder it's so cold." I muttered, then stood up, and was about to open the window, but the moment I stood up, I felt something strange in myself, this strangeness was a peculiar sense of unconsciousness, I can't describe it, it was like suddenly everything was like a dream, I was not so awake, my whole body was confused.
Is something wrong? I found that my reactions seemed to slow down, and I didn't want to think too much about it, but I thought about it for a moment, and laughed at myself for being troubled and just closing the window.
'Squeak' I pulled through the two windows that were blowing and were about to close, the windows slowly approached me, everything was normal, but at that moment, my heart felt like a bomb had been planted, and then suddenly exploded, and a huge sense of crisis instantly grabbed my heart.
What the hell is going on? I became nervous, and pulled the window hard, trying to close it quickly, but I was sad to find that the window could not move.
I looked down and saw that a hand was stretched out from the side, and it was a woman's hand, which looked beautiful, and the nails could be seen to be carefully trimmed, and all the details looked beautiful.
It's just that at this time, it clung to the window tightly, and I don't know if it was because it was too hard, and it looked extremely pale.
My cold sweat dripped down my forehead, and I subconsciously glanced at the room, everyone slept unusually sweet, could it be me I turned my head again, and suddenly saw a face appear outside the window, and I was only separated from the window railing, and then looked at me so fixedly.
In the surging mist, it smiled at me and said, "Chen Nuo, come, follow me!" ”
