Chapter 148: Haunted House
"Grandpa, what's going on in your village?" I asked curiously.
The old man sighed again when he heard this, and then fell into deep thought again, and after a long time he said slowly, "This matter is a long story......
"Then you'll make a long story short!" Anjoufi interjected.
I gave her a blank look and said, "Feifei, don't interrupt!" She looked at me aggrievedly, then bit her lower lip and stopped talking, then lowered her head and ate the porridge in the bowl to herself.
The old man continued: "Ten years ago, there was an old woman in the village who died of illness, because she was lonely, and after her death, everyone in our village did the funeral for her, but later someone found that her grave had collapsed somehow, and several villagers had repaired the tomb again, but in the vacant house after her death, suddenly one night a villager saw her ......"
Seeing that the old man paused, I quickly asked, "Has anyone seen her?" Did you see the old lady who was sick and dead? ”
"Yes." The old man continued: "One of the villagers saw her in her house, and then the man went mad, what a good person, and from that time on, he became crazy, and then some brave people went out of the window to look, and when they saw her, we went to dig up her grave and found it empty, and you said that she was buried, so why did she go back by herself?" ”
"Is she a human or a ghost?" An Rufei asked curiously.
I also wondered how the old lady had crawled out of the grave when she had died of illness and was buried in the grave. Even if she was resurrected, how could such a sick old lady crawl out of the grave by herself? Unless......
"We saw her dead with our own eyes, and I personally checked that she had died, and none of us saw her come back, and she never came out of the house after that, until now every time we pass by, we can hear movement coming from inside, so we dare not go out when it gets dark, for fear of being entangled by her." The old man looked worried.
At this time, An Rufei's face changed, "There are ghosts in this village?" Let's get out of here! ”
"No way!" I said, "Since we have encountered this matter, then whether she is a human or a ghost, I think it is necessary for us to find out, otherwise the villagers can only be worried and feared all the time, how can we abandon it?" ”
After speaking, I looked at the old man and asked, "Grandpa, has she ever killed anyone?" ”
"Not really." The old man shook his head and said, "That old woman is also kind at heart, and the people in our village have helped her, so she must just be reluctant to give up her house, so she doesn't mean to hurt us, right?" ”
I looked at Mu Xiu and asked, "Mu Xiu, do you have any opinions?" ”
"Let's wait until we get to the scene to make a decision." After Mu Xiu finished speaking, he continued to eat porridge as if nothing had happened.
I'm an anxious person, I can't wait when it comes to doing things, I went back to the room after a few bites of food and carried my bag, except for He Yufeng, who had a leg injury and was inconvenient to walk, and Xiang Hanyu, who asked to stay and take care of He Yufeng, several of us went out.
Under the guidance of the old man, we came to the house that the old man said, because the house has been washed by wind and rain, it has become quite old, and there is a feeling that it will collapse when the wind blows.
Some of the people around here have also been emptied because of this "haunted house", except for a few of us, there are no other people passing by, a large number of houses here are very dilapidated, and because no one lives here and is in disrepair all year round, it seems like a deserted dead city.
A gust of wind blows, there is a kind of eerie, cool feeling, people can't help but feel chills down the back of the spine, as if falling into the ice cellar, let me have a kind of legs as heavy as iron can not move forward, to be honest I now have an urge to run if I want to scatter my legs, but I originally proposed to come to find out, and now it is not my usual style to escape.
As we approached the house, we did hear some "ding-dong" sounds coming from inside, as if someone was busy in the house, it was deserted and lifeless, and the movement inside was scary enough, although it was daylight, but just standing here felt the chill raging, and it made people feel frightened.
"Did you hear that? The voices inside haven't stopped for ten years, do you think the villagers can not be afraid? The old man's expression was also slightly panicked, although there was nothing to be afraid of him living at such an old age, but such a place like a dead city, even the most courageous people would feel afraid.
I said, "It's a very common sound, but it's really weird to come out in such a place. ”
"Isn't there really a ghost in there? Why don't we get out of here? Anjoufei took a few steps back in fear.
At this time, Mu Xiu said: "Even if there is really a ghost, there is nothing to be afraid of in broad daylight now, let's go in and take a look." ”
"No, no, no!" The old man retreated in fear, "I advise you not to go, I don't want anything to happen then, if I provoke the ghost of the old lady, I can't afford it!" ”
"yes, I really don't want to go in, I'm scared just standing outside, or we might as well not wade into this troubled water?" Anjou Fei should be peaceful.
I thought for a moment and said, "Since we are all here, just like Mu Xiu said, it is daylight now, even if there are really ghosts, we don't need to be afraid." In fact, when I said this, my own heart was also up and down.
"Oh, I don't care about you, I'll go back first, just do what you want!" After saying that, the old man turned around and left, looking at the old man's back in the distance, how I wanted to catch up and leave with him!
When Anrufei saw the old man leaving, she said timidly, "Why don't you ...... Why don't I go back and wait for your news? ”
"So greedy for life and afraid of death, are you still my An Xiangfei's sister?" An Xiangfei couldn't hold it on his face, and said coldly.
I exhaled before saying, "Since Fei Fei is afraid, why don't you let her go back first?" Anyway, it's enough for the three of us to go in. ”
"Yes, yes, Sister Liangxi is the best for me!" Anjou Fei put her arm around me and said coquettishly.
At this time, Mu Xiu said to An Rufei: "Then you can go back first." ”
As soon as Mu Xiu's words came out, An Rufei immediately ran away, and ran away like a rabbit for a while, and now there are only three of us left, no matter how scared I am, I can't admit it, I secretly cheered myself up in my heart.
After An Rufei left, An Xiangfei said, "Let's go, let's go in?" ”
"Uh-huh." I nodded in response.
