Chapter 60: Wood Carving of Living People

Is this man just a wood carving? But no matter how good the color is, it can't be the same as the skin of a living person!

The man got up as if nothing had happened, and he did whatever he had to do. I looked at the villagers coming and going, and the more I thought about it, the more terrifying it became. Could it be that these people are all wood carvings of living people?

I hurriedly ran back, and Wang Jing was wiping his face in the courtyard. "I'll go wash your face with some water. ”

I took Wang Jing into the house, closed the door tightly, and everyone else woke up, sitting at the table and drinking water.

I said the 1510 at the door thoroughly, and Fu Jiu knocked lightly on the table. Before he could speak, the door was suddenly opened, and Li Fei and Xu Wei came over early. I'm afraid that the two of them are also the kind of living wood carvings, taking the breakfast with one hand and grabbing Li Fei's wrist with the other.

Fortunately, her wrists are warm, and they are not as hard as wood carvings. The third child couldn't help laughing, I still wondered what he was laughing at, Li Fei suddenly punched me in the stomach.

"Hooligans!"

This girl has a lot of strength, and I squatted down holding my stomach. Xu Wei looked at me and laughed: "This early in the morning, you dare to tease the maid in front of your main palace lady, you are really not afraid of death." ”

I was about to explain, but Wang Jing suddenly gave me a look that scared me to shut up.

"He didn't mean it, that is," Fu Jiu helped me play the round, but he didn't know how to say it yet, "I'm just afraid that you will be tired early, so he is like this, doing wrong things with good intentions, and his brain is missing a string." ”

Now it's just what people say. Fortunately, Li Fei didn't care too much, she was originally red and angry, but now she is much better.

The steamed buns I brought over didn't look like they were freshly made, and the steamed buns in the village were generally packed a lot at a time, and they were eaten hot when they wanted to eat.

I still don't have much appetite for the buns, but Li Fei is a little reluctant: "Am I too heavy?" Do you want me to change something for you to eat?"

"No, no, no. I'm just a little tired on the road these days, and I can't eat anything. "I took a bite of the bun, and a feeling of nausea suddenly came to me. I don't think it's okay for them to eat.

"Little girl, we want to visit your grandfather's carving room, can we?" Fu Jiu swallowed a bun. His eating appearance and chewing and swallowing slowly don't match at all, if it weren't for the fact that his throat was so thick, no matter how thick it was, it is estimated that he would be able to throw it in two or two.

Li Fei thought for a while before saying: "Grandpa's house can't even be entered by me, and besides, there is nothing to look at, if you want to see the wood carvings, there are courtyards and living rooms in the inner room, there is no need to enter his house to make him angry." ”

The more people are not allowed to enter, the more likely there is a possibility that some secrets are hidden.

Seeing that Li Fei was embarrassed, Fu Jiu didn't mind, "It's okay, we're just curious, since he doesn't want to forget it." Has your brother been back in the past few years?"

"I came back and brought me a lot of food, but the next day I didn't say goodbye and was scolded by my grandfather. ”

"Scolding away?" I suddenly remembered the blood words from last night, "Is your grandfather and your brother not on good terms?"

Li Fei sighed, "Originally, my grandfather wanted my father to learn carving as well, but my father has never had the potential in that area, but my brother is very talented, and my grandfather wants him to inherit the craft, but my brother is not interested in carving, so the two of them always quarrel because of this." ”

I stole the situation and it seems that we guessed correctly. That's probably what the hell is going on in this wall.

We didn't dare to ask more, for fear that she would be suspicious, not to mention that there was Xu Wei by her side, this girl was not a fuel-efficient lamp.

"If there's nothing going on today, let's take you around!" Xu Wei said while cleaning up the table when she saw us finish eating.

"Go ahead. Fu Jiu rubbed his stomach and walked to the bedroom by himself, "I had a nightmare last night, which scared me so much that I didn't sleep well all night, I want to make up for it." ”

Li Fei was amused when she heard it, "Uncle, you are so sleepy at such an age." ”

"Ignore him, he's like this, sleepy when he's full. "How can I let go of such an opportunity to fall into the well?" If the two beautiful girls are okay in a moment, they will show us around. ”

Li Fei and Xu Wei went back to deliver the plates. I always feel that there are a lot of secrets in this village, and there will be no mistakes at more contact points.

Lin Yeqing suddenly laughed, I didn't know what she was laughing at, the third child secretly tugged at the corner of my clothes, "Brother, brother can't help you." ”

When I looked at Wang Jing's expression of wanting to kill, I finally knew. Why a woman is angry again is a puzzle that can never be solved.

After the commotion, we also cleaned up and waited for them at the gate of the yard, and they came out after a while.

We walked slowly along the path, and I stared at the houses I passed by, and occasionally I could see the shadows of some old people.

"Little brother, you seem to care about these houses very much. Xu Wei was a little aware.

"I just think, are the villagers a little too scared?" I was talking nonsense, in fact, I just wanted to see if there was any clue.

Wang Jing secretly tugged at my sleeve and quietly pointed behind her. I wanted to see what she was referring to, but she stopped me and whispered, "Don't make too many moves, I feel like something is following us." ”

I didn't dare to look back, "Did you bring a mirror?"

Wang Jing was stunned for a moment, but quickly understood what I meant, and handed me the mirror he had brought with him. I pretended to look in the mirror and see what was behind us in the mirror.

Just behind the house not far from us, a ghost flashed.

It stands to reason that ghosts can't appear during the day, and since they're not ghosts, what is that shadow?

We wandered around the village, but we didn't see any villagers coming out. Li Fei said that at this time, the villagers all went to the land outside the village to cultivate, and the village was not big, and there was not much arable land, so they enclosed a piece of land outside the village.

We don't see any clues now. Lin Yeqing is just walking back and forth, and I wonder if there is a problem with the current poor recruitment system.

"Forget it, there's nothing to see, we're not a leader to inspect, let's go back and ask Fu Jiu if he has any plans." "I just want to go back and ask Fu Jiu what to do now. Lin Yeqing, the old three, and Wang Jing all agreed, and we and Li Fei and Xu Wei went back.

When I went back, I passed by a family, and an old lady came out with a trembling crutch, and Li Fei hurriedly went to pick her up: "Aunt Liu, why did you come out? It's not warm today, I'll take you into the house." ”

Aunt Liu: At this age, you can call Grandma Liu, right?

We waited at the door for Li Fei to send Aunt Liu into the house, she looked at us with a puzzled expression, and then sighed: "Don't look at Aunt Liu looks like an old lady, in fact, Aunt Liu is not yet fifty years old." She had an unknown illness, and within two days she became like this. My grandfather said that she had been sucked away by something unclean, and that he wanted his son to worship God's mother-in-law to get better. ”

"Mother-in-law, is that the one in your family?" I knew it was a taboo, but I didn't dare to say that it was a wood carving in a shroud.

Li Fei nodded, "Grandpa said that it was a statue that the god's mother-in-law gave him a dream to help build, and after the carving is completed, let the whole village worship, and you can bless the people in the village." But Grandpa said that the eyes of the statue could not be carved. ”

We weren't in the mood to wander around anymore along the way, and before we reached the gate of the courtyard, we saw Fu Jiu standing at the door from a distance, still holding an umbrella in his hand.

"Brother Jiu, what are you doing here?" the third child greeted Fu Jiu when he saw him, "It's not raining either!"

He's not who he is. Under the umbrella, there was a ghost covered in blood next to him.
