After the door opened, the sound of the fat man and Uncle Zhuzi's mother-in-law crying seemed to be stifled by life, and the silence around them was like death.

The courtyard of Uncle Lai's house is not big, and as soon as the door is opened, the scene inside can be seen at a glance.

There is a millstone in the middle of the yard, which is found in every household, but there are two heads on the millstone.

The two heads are Uncle Lai's father.

On both sides of the grinding disc is the body of Laizi's father, with two shoulders hanging on the grinding plate, and the body is lying on his stomach.

A gust of wind blew and swayed.

Where is this body! It's clearly two human skins!

There was a stall of minced meat on the side of the millstone, and there was white bone stubble in it.

What happened was immediately clear.

Laizi's father and mother had their heads cut off, and then the skin was peeled off and hung aside, and the meat on their bodies was also crushed raw by the grinding plate.

At this time, I thought of the snake skin at the door, didn't the people in the village deal with snakes like this!

But the thought that Uncle Lai's father and mother were also "treated" like this by someone to deal with snakes made me feel deeply frightened.

Where have the people in the village seen such a scene, they were so frightened that their legs went limp, and they vomited on the ground.

However, the grandfather seemed to be light-hearted, and walked over to take a closer look at the human skin, and then took out a boning knife from the meat puree on the ground.

Grandpa took the boning knife and slowly withdrew.

When the villagers watched Grandpa come out, they also retreated one after another, gradually giving way to a vacant lot in front of Uncle Lai's house.

At this time, the village chief walked out tremblingly, and he couldn't say all the words, and asked his grandfather if he wanted to call the police.

The village chief is in his forties, and he is majestic on weekdays, but he didn't expect to become a soft-footed shrimp when he encountered something.

Grandpa shook his head, this kind of thing really can't be called to the police, at that time, not to mention such an evil thing, the police will believe it, even these two lives are enough for the village to eat a pot.

The village chief swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his mouth was sour just now, he glanced at the snake skin hanging at the door, and then asked in a low voice: "Mr. Bai! Who do you say is this murderer!"

Until now, the village chief can't believe that it is two lives that have something to do with the white snake, in fact, he can't say that he can't believe it, but he wants to hear his grandfather say that the murderer is someone else, after all, compared with a person and a snake, the village chief is more willing to hear the former.

Grandpa glanced at the village chief and sighed: "You go to the coffin shop in the town, and ask for three coffins, there must be a locust wood! ”。

The village chief was about to leave after hearing this, and suddenly looked back at his grandfather: "Mr. Bai, why are there three of you?"

His words made everyone stunned for a moment.

Indeed, there were only two dead people in the house, how could three coffins be used.

At this time, everyone remembered that Laizi was gone, and from beginning to end, this kind of thing happened in his family, and he actually disappeared!

"That snake wouldn't use it himself!" said Grandpa, unwrapping the hanging snake skin and wrapping the boning knife in his hand.

Everyone gasped.

According to grandpa's meaning, it was Lai Zi himself who really beheaded and skinned Laizi's father and mother, this is a son killing relatives!

Grandpa didn't want to explain anything, so he asked everyone in the village to go back, close the door and sleep, and let them untie all the dogs at home, and don't sleep too hard!

The faces of the people changed greatly, and they hurried home, not to mention sleeping tonight, I am afraid that the whole family will have to hold the hoe in the house and be afraid all night.

After a while, the kung fu man walked away, and Uncle Zhuzi was also carried back, and the only ones left were grandpa, me, the fat man, and his father.

The fat man's father dragged his mother-in-law and knelt down for my grandfather, and the fat man was so frightened that he quickly knelt down.

"Uncle Bai, you can save the national treasure! I don't understand these things, but the old Zhang family is just a single seedling...... "The fat man's father lowered his head and said, and the seven-foot-tall man's tears fell down.

Grandpa hurriedly helped the two of them to stand up: "Fugui, Xiuzi, what are you two doing! Can I not save him? Xiaoquan went out to work when he beat his parents, and he didn't come back all year round, he was supported by Xiuzi, and there was never a shortage of national treasures, I saw them all, Xiuzi regarded Xiaoquan as a son, and in my eyes the national treasure was my grandson!"

The fat man saw his father and mother stand up, and he stood up slowly, but before he could stand firmly, he was slapped by his father and pestled down.

"Kowtow to your grandfather!" said the fat man, gritting his teeth.

The fat man was afraid of his father when he was a child, and when he heard that the tone was wrong, and not far away were two dead people who were crushed into meat by the grinding plate, he was already frightened, and he kowtowed to the ground.

Grandpa picked up the fat man and said to his father: "You two should go back quickly, you don't dare to be unpopular at home! The national treasure will let him go to my house, don't worry!"

By the time Grandpa led me and the fat man home, it was already dark.

Before I could ask my grandfather what had happened, he took out an oil lamp from his house.

I recognize this, usually when offering incense during the New Year's holiday, my grandfather will always light this oil lamp.

Then my grandfather cut the hands of the fat man and me with the boning knife, dripping the blood into the kerosene, and then made me and the fat man bow to the kerosene lamp, and then lit the kerosene lamp, and nailed the knife wrapped in snake skin to the table in front of the oil lamp.

"The oil lamp is used to protect you, look at it! Don't extinguish it! This knife should be the knife that Laizi used to kill the snake, the knife killed two more people, the knife is still full of anger, and the snake skin is wrapped to scare the white snake, so that the snake will not dare to come easily, it doesn't matter if you don't understand, as long as you don't go out!"

When I heard that my grandfather meant to leave, I immediately became a little anxious: "Grandpa, why are you going?"

The fat man also said, "Grandpa Bai, don't you go, didn't you say that the snake didn't dare to come here?"

Grandpa looked at my anxious appearance and felt soft, touched our heads and asked, "The white snake is still outside, I have to go out and have a look, don't let it hurt others." ”

But Grandpa still had to leave in the end, and before leaving, he told us not to go out, even if the snake came back, he didn't dare to come in.

But as soon as Grandpa stepped out of the house, he seemed to think of something, turned around and flipped his hand, and a three-inch-long wooden nail appeared in his hand.

Grandpa nailed the wooden nail to the door frame, turned back to me and said, "As soon as this nail hits the ground, it means that the snake is coming." ”

Grandpa left after speaking.

The fat man and I stared at the nail in the doorway, for fear that the nail would fall.

Because it's all child's nature, the feeling of fear disappears after a while.

The fat man had long since stopped looking at the nails, and stared at the knife and the oil lamp on the table.

"Quanzi, why do you still have an oil lamp at home?" said the fat man, and he was about to touch the oil lamp.

I hurriedly stopped him, since he was able to touch the white snake, I was worried that he would cause any more trouble, and now my grandfather went out to find the white snake, and the white snake actually killed Uncle Lai's father, I was very worried about my grandfather's safety.

"Stingy!" said the fat man, pouting.

"You can touch it, don't break it, my grandfather is the most precious oil lamp, and he usually plays with it if he doesn't have it. "I looked at the fat man and had to compromise.

The more he looked at it, the more closely he looked, and I couldn't resist my curiosity and leaned over to look.

On weekdays, my grandfather didn't let me touch this thing, saying that the enshrined utensils couldn't be moved, but it was clear that my grandfather was playing with it back and forth.

As a result, the fire on the kerosene lamp teased my eyebrows, and I knocked over the kerosene lamp as soon as I raised my hand.

The oil lamp fell to the ground and rolled out for a long time, and the kerosene was also scattered on the ground, and the wick fell out, and the flames were dying.

I hurried down to pick up the wick.

Unfortunately, the fire was extinguished.

My grandfather said don't let the kerosene lamp go out ringing in my ears, and I regret it very much.

Just as I was cleaning up the mess, I saw an extra thing at hand.

It's a brass bell.

I picked it up and played with it in my hand, and although it looked like a bell, it didn't have the copper ball in the middle of the bell.

I shook it and didn't make a sound.

If you look closely, there is a small figure on the bell, as if it is a person standing in the clouds.

"And I owe it, don't you?" muttered the fat man.

"Quanzi! Quanzi!" As soon as the fat man's voice fell, he began to call me in a hurry again.

I looked up at the fat man impatiently: "What are you calling? I turned off the light, it's none of your business!"

Seeing the fat man's demeanor, I immediately chuckled in my heart.

Turned his head to the door.

The wooden nails on the door frame were long gone, and the wooden nails were lying quietly on the ground.

I yelled out and hugged the fat man.

The snakeskin on the table was shaking wildly.

But the knife was nailed to the table, just like when we pricked an earthworm with a needle, and no matter how twisted it was, it couldn't shake the blade.

"What to do?" the fat man asked me, trembling.

I'm so scared now, I don't know what to do!

Great fear enveloped me and the fat man, and I whispered to the fat man, "Grandpa said that it can't come in, so let's not make a sound, maybe it won't hear it and leave." ”

I covered my mouth with that, and the fat man almost shoved his fist into his mouth.

Just as we were anxiously expecting that everything would pass, a miserable white hand came out of the door.

There was not a trace of blood on his hands, and the back of his hands was covered with white scales, which reflected a little under the light of the room.

Although the fat man and I were young, we could also see that this hand looked strange, especially looking at the scales on the hand and the twisted snake skin on the table, where I didn't know that the white snake was behind the door.

It's just that I still wonder in my heart, isn't it supposed to be a white snake, how can it have a hand?

The hand touched the wooden nail on the ground, but it seemed to ache and retracted.

Just when we thought it was gone.

A head slowly poked out from behind the door.

Turning his head to look at the two of us, it was Uncle Lai.

It's just that Uncle Lai's face was pale at this time, and his eyes were scarlet, especially the eyeballs were actually vertical pupils.

Uncle Lai and I glanced at each other, and I suddenly felt cold from the top of my head to the soles of my feet.

I saw that Uncle Lai's neck was also full of scales, and after opening his mouth, his tongue was actually forked, and he got rid of a humanoid snake.
