Lying back on the quilt spread on the ground, Lin Zhiwu gently threw out a sentence: "Lin Gongzi, be angry and dantian, close your eyes and be calm, don't let them find out that we are still alive." Whatever they hear, or what they do, don't move, and see what their purpose is. ”

After that, Lin Zhiwu took the lead in closing his eyes and calming down - pretending to be dead.

Lin Xiaoyang obediently closed his eyes, calmed his breath, and his breathing gradually weakened until he stopped.

However, Lin Zhiwu and Lin Xiaoyang both had their ears erected, for fear that they had misheard a trace of movement.

In a few moments, a shiny dagger plunged through the crack in the door, just under the latch.

I saw that the small dagger slowly moved upward, slightly against the latch of the door, and then began to move slowly from side to side.

In just a few seconds, with a faint "click", the latch was picked open.

The dagger was pulled through the crack in the door, and then, with a slight "squeak", the wooden door was gently pushed open.

As the wooden door opened, a large amount of bright moonlight was cast into the room, brightening the room that had only a faint light.

Looking closely, outside the door, there were seven people standing with the full moon on the horizon.

Because of the moonlight on their backs, people can't see their faces clearly, and they can only see that the seven people are tall, short, fat and thin, but they can't distinguish between mature men and mature women.

"Big brother, after doing this time, let's stop it! This is a sinful thing! It will damage Yin Virtue!" A deliberately low voice sounded.

"Do you think I don't want to stop? But do you think that person will let us stop?" The same deliberately lowered voice contained a thick helplessness.

"That is, if that person will let us stop, who of us is willing to do this murderous and damaging deed?"

"Yes, the eldest brother and the second brother are right, the fourth, now, we have no way out. The fourth voice was deliberately muffled.

"Fourth brother, we all know that you have a good heart, and among our seven brothers, there is no really heinous villain, isn't this all forced by that person? If we don't do it, not only will that person not let us go, but I'm afraid that our entire village will not be able to save it!"

"Yes, Fourth brother, even if we don't do it for ourselves, for the sake of the people in the village, we can't stop it! Your baby is only three years old, are you willing to leave him alone? And your daughter-in-law, how much effort did you make to marry her back then, and it has only been less than four years, and you are willing to leave her?" The sixth deliberately lowered voice with a reminder.

For a moment, the space was quiet.

It seemed like a century had passed, and the voice of the man known as the fourth child sounded again: "Alas, forget it, both of them are dead, let's deal with them first!"

After the words fell, the leftist of the three people standing at the head stepped into the wooden house and walked towards Lin Zhiwu who was lying on the ground.

Seeing that person entered the wooden house, the remaining six people also walked into the house one after another, and also walked towards Lin Zhiwu and Lin Xiaoyang.

The person who walked to Lin Zhiwu's side first stepped on the quilt, squatted beside Lin Zhiwu, stretched out his hands and touched Lin Zhiwu's body, as if he was looking for something.

The other person who walked to Lin Xiaoyang's side was the same, reaching out and touching Lin Xiaoyang's body, not knowing what they were looking for.

The person who was squatting beside Lin Zhiwu probably finished searching, stood up and said to the other six: "He has nothing on him except a silver ticket and a soft sword." ”

Another person standing beside Lin Xiaoyang also said to the rest of the people after taking his hand: "This person is the same, except for the long sword he held in his hand when he entered the village, there is nothing on his body except for a jade pendant and a stack of silver tickets." ”

After listening to the words of those two people, the tallest of the seven walked up to them, stretched out his hand to them, and said: "Show me the jade pendant you searched, what that person is looking for seems to be something related to jade, and I don't know if it's not, if so, then we may really not have to do this kind of hurtful thing anymore." ”

The man in charge of searching Lin Xiaoyang handed the flat round thing he was holding in his hand to the man, and the man took it and walked to the door.

After taking a closer look at the moonlight outside the house, the man turned around and said dejectedly, "No, the pattern on this is different from the one that person showed me." ”

Even a fool should understand at this moment that these seven people are indeed looking for something, but it makes people feel confused-

What would make them search for it so riskily for human life?

"Big brother, did these two people follow the old rules and carry them to the cliff of the back mountain and throw them away?"

The man who stood by the door and was called the eldest brother by everyone was probably very disappointed because the jade pendant he searched from Lin Xiaoyang was not what they were looking for.

"Big brother, if you don't find it now, you will find it one day, the old five are stupid, don't be angry. It was the voice of the fourth child who spoke at the beginning.

"Big brother, what about the jade pendant in your hand?" was the voice of the person in charge of searching for Lin Xiaoyang.

"Big brother, this is not what the person is looking for anyway, and everyone is dead, otherwise, let's take this jade to a town twenty miles away and sell it for some money! Even if they occasionally left, as long as they were within fifty miles of the village, they would be sent back with a corpse the next day. Under the panic of the people, no one in our village has dared to leave the village so far, and if it continues like this, our village will have to die of poverty, but I am afraid that we will not even be able to eat at that time. An unfamiliar voice sounded, with a thick sense of reluctance and helplessness.

"Old Seven!!"

"No!!" the two voices sounded almost simultaneously.

The seven people looked together in the direction where the voice came from, and then, except for the fourth brother who was standing next to Lin Zhiwu and the eldest brother who was standing by the door holding Lin Xiaoyang's jade pendant, the other five people exclaimed in surprise and shouted in unison: "Mom!

Two of the five people were so frightened that they didn't dare to move, and the other three rushed in the direction of the door while shouting.

"Fraudulent corpse??" Lin Xiaoyang, who was lying on the bed, muttered puzzled as he looked at the few people who were scattered and fled.

It took a while for Lin Xiaoyang to react in hindsight, he was now pretending to be a corpse, and suddenly spoke, isn't it just a corpse?

However, Lin Xiaoyang didn't have time to continue thinking about anything else.

Lin Xiaoyang is now only thinking about the red jade pendant that Leng Qing gave him this morning when he and his second sister-in-law Leng Qing parted ways!

Lin Xiaoyang felt that the jade pendant was the first gift he received in his life, and it was also the first gift given to her by the second sister-in-law, and it must not be taken away! If the second sister-in-law asked in the future, how would he explain it? What if the second sister-in-law was angry because of this?

Because he was anxious, Lin Xiaoyang's voice was very eager: "Hurry up and return the jade pendant to me!!"

This is definitely not a threat, Lin Xiaoyang will definitely make this sentence a fact!

However, because he had just been detoxified and anxious, Lin Xiaoyang's voice did not show the slightest momentum, but made people feel a little ethereal, and it seemed a little creepy in this cold night.

The person known as Lao Qi, who said that he was going to sell the jade pendant before, had already run out of the door at this time, and when he heard Lin Xiaoyang's words, he couldn't help but stop, looked back at Lin Xiaoyang who was lying on the bed, and said tremblingly: "You, you are already dead, and you still want the jade pendant to do, what to do?!"

The fourth brother standing next to Lin Zhiwu was closest to Lin Xiaoyang, he looked at the eldest brother standing by the door, and forced himself to calm down: "Big brother, let's return the jade pendant to others! We never took people's things even if we killed people before, but this time we cheated the corpse as soon as we moved this thought, why should we harm people's lives and take away their things! This is deepening our sins!"

Not far from Lao Qi, the eldest brother standing in the door pondered for a while, and then nodded: "Also, they have harmed other people's lives, and they can't take other people's things anymore." ”

After that, the eldest brother was bold and walked towards Lin Xiaoyang step by step.

"Yu Pei will return you, you can rest in peace! If you don't die, don't come to our brothers, if you want revenge, you will go to the person who forced us, it was that person who forced us to kill, it's none of our brothers' business! It has nothing to do with the people in the village!" The eldest brother kept muttering as he walked, and his voice trembled a little.

Avoiding Lin Zhiwu who was lying on the ground, and walked to the side of the bed, the eldest brother trembled his hands, put the jade pendant in his hand on Lin Xiaoyang, and then hurriedly retracted his hand like an electric shock.

The fourth brother, who had been standing beside Lin Zhiwu, saw that the eldest brother returned the jade pendant to Lin Xiaoyang, so he reminded: "Big brother, let's let the brothers put them in the ground!"

Hearing this, the eldest brother nodded again and again, and said eagerly: "The fourth is right, the fourth is right, it's better to go into the soil for peace, and it is better to go into the soil for peace! The second, third, fifth, and sixth children, you hurry up and carry people!"

After that, the eldest brother raised his hand and beckoned the other four to come up and move Lin Xiaoyang and Lin Zhiwu.

However, since those people thought that Lin Xiaoyang was a fraud, how could they dare to step forward again?

And there is still one lying on the ground next to the bed, who knows if that one will also suddenly come to a corpse?

Therefore, no matter how the eldest brother urged, the four people who were named all stood still and did not move, neither stepping forward nor running away without righteousness.
