Chapter Forty-Eight: Odd

In the middle of the night, I was woken up by a cool breeze, the strange cool air that penetrated into the bone marrow was by no means the natural wind of a summer night, I suddenly opened my eyes and looked at the window, and found a person standing outside the window!

The man faced the room, stood upright, as if he was not worried about being discovered, and it should be a man, so he quickly sat up and whispered out the window: "Who? ”

The figure outside the window disappeared in place after hearing the sound, fortunately I was wearing a T-shirt and sports shorts when I slept, so it was convenient to jump up from the bed at this time and chase people directly, I felt that the speed was fast enough, but when I chased outside, there was not even a ghost shadow in the direction of the person's escape, and I secretly scolded this pervert for running quite fast!

Unexpectedly, as soon as I turned around, the tip of my nose almost hit a person's body, and I forgot to scream in fright, and took a few steps backwards to take a closer look at this person's face, and when I saw his face clearly, I found that it was Bai Rui.

It's just that his eyes are closed and his demeanor is calm, as if he is sleeping. I breathed a sigh of relief, this was the first time I had seen a sleepwalker, and luckily I didn't scream just now, and I had heard that such a person might go crazy if he was awakened while sleepwalking.

Sure it was a false alarm, I was about to go back to the house to sleep, so as not to disturb people's sleepwalking, but Bai Rui, who was originally on the ground like a stake, suddenly stretched out his hands and stuck ten fingers into my neck like a zombie in a movie.

I didn't have time to recite the puppet spell, so I had to dodge to the side, but I slowed down, and as his long nails were about to poke into my neck, a powerful arm grabbed me by the waist and pulled me backwards, leaping backwards, and in the blink of an eye I was being carried to the roof.

A full moon is in the sky, tonight is the sixteenth, when the moon is at its fullest, the moonlight is bright, illuminating the small courtyard of the farmhouse below, so that I can clearly see Bai Rui floating around like a wandering spirit.

And under the moonlight, he has no shadow!

I hurriedly pulled Sanjiu's clothes to tell him to look at him, he nodded at me, none of us made a sound, Bai Rui's feet below were floating in the yard without touching the ground, he seemed to want to go out, but he couldn't find a way.

Watching a person float around for a long time will be boring, sitting on the roof tiles, sleepiness is getting thicker, and soon the eyelids begin to fight. It was already one o'clock in the morning, Bai Rui seemed to be tireless floating in the courtyard, Sanjiu and I sat side by side to bask in the moon, and finally I couldn't help but fall asleep and close my eyes.

When the day was about to dawn, Bai Rui finally floated back to the house, and Sanjiu woke me up, and when my brain was completely clear, he said:

"He's not human."

I agreed with him, but I didn't understand one thing, so I said, "But during the day I see him as normal." ”

"There must be a problem."

I want to hurt him, isn't this nonsense, no problem can float around like a ghost in the middle of the night? But I didn't dare to say it, I only complained in my heart, but I said, "What do you think is the problem?" ”

"People by day, demons by night."

I heard a chill behind my back, it's a human during the day, and a demon at night, what is that?

"Is this possible? People are people, demons are demons, how can you pay back half and half, is it difficult to be a shemale! ”

When Sanjiu encounters a question that he doesn't want to answer, or can't answer, he will be silent, and he will answer me with silence, so I don't ask again, I fall into deep thought alone, and after a while, I say to him, "Could he be the mausoleum keeper?" ”

He thought for a moment before saying, "Look again, be careful yourself during the day." ”

I nodded and said yes, and before the day was dark, the village chief's daughter-in-law hadn't gotten up to cook on the fire, so we quietly sneaked back to our room to rest.

After dawn, Sanjiu and Jin Sanpang had breakfast and went out to survey the terrain, and I was too idle to wander around the village, passing by the yards of several villagers, and secretly wondering that no one here had a car, whether it was for agriculture or personal use, and I didn't even see an electric car.

Isn't there an urgent matter in the village, when you need to hurry? In case someone has an emergency and is pulled to the health center by an ox cart, won't the daylily be cold!

I was worried about the lack of transportation in the village, and several children surrounded me, and one of them stood up to me boldly and asked curiously, "Are you the bride?" ”

I looked at this little hairy head with tears and laughter, his dirty little face was covered with dirt and sweat, and there were two clear noses hanging under his nose, and he was wearing a vest and shorts that could not be seen in his true color, like a mud monkey.

I leaned down slightly and smiled and said to him, "No." What is your name? How old are you? ”

"My name is Zhang Daxing, and I'm six this yearβ€”"

Before Zhang Daxing's answer was finished, he was stopped by a stern female voice, and a plainly dressed middle-aged woman pulled Zhang Daxing away with an unkind face.

Seeing this, the other children scattered in a hurry, and there were not many opportunities for people to come to life in the countryside. I didn't think too much about the unfriendliness of that aunt, there are difficult people everywhere, we just stayed temporarily, and this little episode was quickly forgotten.

There is a main road in the village, from the east to the west, it only takes about ten minutes, and the houses are almost the same, there is nothing special, but there are mountains and rivers, and the scenery is pleasant.

The identity of the mausoleum keeper is a secret, and we can't ask from door to door, and besides, our actions are not easy to make a big splash, so it is not easy to find him out, he may be an old man, an old grandmother, a middle-aged uncle, or an aunt who grows vegetables...... Probably any adult except the baby mud monkey.

It's just a fox, always showing its tail, maybe I should start with Barry, his strange behavior is very suspicious, and I turn and walk back at the thought of this.

When I returned to the village chief's house, Sanjiu and Jin Sanpang had not yet returned, and the village chief's daughter-in-law was not at home when she visited the neighboring village.

Seeing Bai Rui sitting at the table, his face was ruddy, his breathing was even, his eyes were as bright as black agate, he was completely a healthy human being, and he didn't see the weirdness of last night, maybe there are really creatures in this world that are human during the day and demons at night, because I believe in my own eyes and Sanjiu's judgment.

When the old village chief saw me enter the door, he greeted me with a smile: "Xiao Li, come and try my craftsmanship, it's not that I boast, if you want to say that this cooking, your uncle and I are no worse than the old woman." ”

My gaze swept over Bai Rui, quickly retracted it, and said to the old village chief: "Then I have a good mouth, uncle has worked hard!" ”

There are several dishes on the table with meat and vegetables, all of which are full of color and aroma, and I have an appetite when I look at it, but I don't know how the 'taste' is.

The old village chief and Bai Rui saw me sitting down before they picked up the dishes and chopsticks, obviously waiting for me to come back to eat, I was a little embarrassed.

The old village chief saw that I was uncomfortable, and said with a smile: "Eat, eat more, don't learn from the little girl who is shouting all day long to lose weight, she is full and in good health." ”
