Chapter 184: Rising to the sky
Taoyuan Village after dark.
Dance.
Wine banquets, bonfires, and each family actively took out their own good things to hold a whole village banquet.
There was a lot of noise.
The urchin ran around in the crowd.
The enthusiasm of the whole village was high, and they even put on new clothes, which was more lively than the New Year's festival.
The night was silent, dark, and it was the hour of day.
The time is also called fixed, and the determination of people is also called quiet.
It means that at this time the night is already dark, the living people have stopped moving, it is time to rest and sleep, and do not run around and make loud noises, lest they provoke anything to bring into the house.
But the liveliness of Taoyuan Village, singing and dancing, runs counter to the warnings of the ancestors.
Song Fangping's family.
Outside the door of the room where they "fell asleep" in Jin'an, there was the muttering of Song Fangping and his wife, as well as some faint sounds.
It's just that it's pitch black outside the door.
Song Fangping and his wife did not light the lamp.
So through the crack in the door, you can't see anything.
But listening to the movement, it seems that the couple is busy with some night activities between the two of them, and they don't want to be seen by outsiders.
Suddenly.
Squeak.
In the quiet room, there was a movement, like an old, dilapidated wooden door shaft, and the groans of pain like an old man on a hospital bed.
The movement in the room of Song Fangping and his wife suddenly stopped.
In the dark room, where there was no light, there was a dead silence, and the darkness was like a big rock that made people breathless.
Everything is quietly still.
It's so quiet that it's full of weird and depressing, and I always feel that in the invisible darkness, it seems that I can't see a figure standing with my eyes in my eyes.
I don't know how long this silent dark oppression lasted, and suddenly, outside the door of the room where Jin An, who was supposed to be empty, "fell asleep", there was actually the sound of footsteps walking away, and the footsteps outside the door kept returning to the room of Song Fangping and his wife.
When did Song Fangping walk silently and touched the door, and looked into the room outside the crack of the door, but no one noticed.
"Dead ghost, why have you been here for so long. ”
"Just like you are grinding the spear, old lady, I will wait for you to feed, I have already starved to death by you. Hurry, hurry, hurry up, I can't help it, mother. ”
Song Fangping's room came from his mother-in-law's angry and low scolding, scolding his own man for being slow and scolding his man for being useless, which made her unhappy.
In the dim room without a lamp, Song Fangping's mother-in-law, with heavy breasts and two round petals, was sitting at the dressing table, and she was drawing makeup.
The clothes on his body were also changed into clean and new clothes.
The new clothes with floral embroidery patterns, the style has been backward, obsolete, like an old thing a few dynasties ago, but she cherishes it very much, and only takes it out of the wardrobe to wear it on major festivals such as New Year's holidays.
It's just that.
The person reflected in the dressing mirror, but there is no human appearance, Song Fangping's mother-in-law did not control the strength when combing her hair, the wooden comb gently combed her hair, and the original black and thick woman's hair was pulled down by the comb. The black hair pulled at the scalp and directly tore off most of the scalp and human face, revealing the bloody flesh of abscesses.
It's like dead pork has been rotting for too long, the sebum has lost its elasticity, and a large piece of flesh can be grabbed with a light grasp.
At this time, Song Fangping's mother-in-law wanted to pick up her scalp and face again and re-post herself, but she was always wrong about the position of the back of her head, and she stuck herself with a crooked nose and crooked face every time.
Women love beauty.
Looking at her ugly appearance in the mirror, she couldn't stand it, and she wanted to scratch her face.
She was so angry that she scolded and asked her man to hurry over and help her reattach her scalp and face.
"You mother-in-law, there are men in the family and you dress up so flamboyant all day long, and you are cheap for other men all day long, but I am busy working outside all day long, and I can't see a few times, and you are not afraid that your men will be jealous. ”
There was the sound of footsteps in the darkness, and behind the plump woman reflected in the dressing mirror, there stood a tall and burly man, who scolded his mother-in-law for his indiscretion while helping his mother-in-law re-attach her torn scalp and face.
Song Fangping's mother-in-law was not to be outdone: "Then you hurry up and eat Lao Niang, I wish you could eat me every day, Lao Niang, I feel itchy all over my body every day, I feel that there are a lot of white worms drilling under the skin, or you will eat me now, let me see if there are a lot of white worms in my body?"
Song Fangping's mother-in-law writhed her limbs, and the heavy two lumps on her chest made her feel itchy and unbearable, and she felt so itchy, there were countless insects crawling around. She turned her head to look at her man, her bright peach blossom eyes were so eager that she seemed to pinch out the water, but her crooked face made one of her eyes crooked, without any beauty, and under the flesh that was not covered by the skin, there were white maggots drilling in and out, looking like tiny lotus holes.
"You water-based Yang Hua lady who hooks up with men all day long, I really don't dare to eat you?" In the makeup mirror, Song Fangping's red and greedy eyes were reflected.
"You useless thing, if you want to eat, hurry up and eat the old lady, the old lady's body is itching to death, and after eating, you have to go to the whole village banquet, hurry up, the old lady, I can't help it." ”
"Okay! You water-based poplar slut, you dress up so beautifully today just for those outsiders who come to the village, do you take a fancy to that young Taoist priest with fine skin and tender meat, who is delicious at first sight? I call you water-based poplar, I call you red apricot out of the wall, I call you a man in the house, and I still think about that young Taoist priest! I'm going to bite you slut!"
Ho ho... Belch... Ho-ho-ho –
Knock –
The sound of eating could be heard in the room, munching on minced meat.
But suddenly, the sound of eating in the house stopped.
"Why did you suddenly stop moving? Hurry up, I'm sorry for the dead lady. ”
"Mother-in-law, I seem to have heard movement at the door just now, and there seems to be a person standing at the door just now......"
In the room with a strange and cold atmosphere, there was a black light, and no one could see what was going on in the room, only one door was wide open.
The door of the black hole was empty, and there was not even a single figure.
"Dead ghost, you don't close the door when you enter the house. ”
"I'm going to close the door. ”
"Dead ghost, go and come back quickly, don't let the old lady wait too long, the old lady and I am still waiting for you to continue to eat the old lady." ”
"You're a bad who can't be fed. ”
Song Fangping was still scolding one moment ago, but the next moment, without warning, Song Fangping's head suddenly poked out of the darkness, his eyes were slightly red at this time, and there were strips of meat between the teeth in his mouth, and he didn't know if he ate too much pig's head meat for dinner tonight.
He glanced at the doorway.
Seeing no one outside the door.
Numb, lifeless red eyes, and stared directly at the opposite Jin'an The room where they were sleeping, and saw that there was no movement in the opposite room, bang, the door was slammed shut.
Not long after, the sound of meat chewing was heard again in the room.
Ho-ho-ho –
......
......
A man has three fires, one on his left and one on his shoulders and on the top of his head.
Jin An, who was dotted with three drops of corpse oil on the eyebrows and shoulders by the old Taoist priest, temporarily covering the three yang fires of the living, saw Song Fangping return to the house, and he could no longer see the relationship between Song Fangping and his wife, so he instead climbed over the wall and was discharged from the hospital, and began to wander around Taoyuan Village.
Inquire about the information in Taoyuan Village.
However, only Jin An came out tonight, and the others did not bring it out, but continued to stay in Song Fangping's house, just in case.
In case the villagers of Taoyuan Village suddenly go crazy and want to eat people, the old Taoist priest can hold up for a while longer and carry him back.
And with the five thunder slashing evil talismans, which are the best way to save his life at the bottom of the box, acting alone is more conducive to him hiding his whereabouts.
Although Jin An's three yang fires were temporarily covered by corpse oil to cover the breath of the living, now he is a dead man in the eyes of the dead in Taoyuan Village.
Only the living can see him.
The dead cannot see him.
But along the way to Jin'an, he still tried to avoid the villagers of Taoyuan Village if he could avoid it.
However, he also secretly tried to appear in front of a few lonely villagers, who ignored him and walked past.
It's just that Jin An walked around Taoyuan Village like this, and he didn't find anything. On the contrary, there were fewer and fewer people along the way, because most of the villagers rushed to the direction of the village ancestral hall, where the whole village banquet was being arranged in full swing.
At last.
Jin An's eyes lit up and he groaned.
He also began to walk in the direction of the back of the village.
If Jin An remembered the direction correctly, it was the position where the men and women stood proudly.
On the way, I met more and more villagers, and these Taoyuan villagers wore new clothes that they would only wear out during the New Year's holidays.
Moreover, some of these people carried fresh fruit baskets in their hands.
Some people carry a freshly disemboweled, slaughtered fresh white pig, look at the pork with fine skin and tender meat, fat head and big ears, and look at it is exquisitely raised.
Some people, young and old, went out to carry tables and benches, intending to present them to the village for holding a wine banquet for the whole village.
And Jin An walked among the villagers along the way, and he was also unharmed, and no one noticed that a living person had mixed in among them.
The fire is raging.
A huge bonfire was lit in a huge clearing behind the village.
The flames of the bonfire, which were two stories high, burned all around it red, and a large number of Taoyuan villagers were busy around the bonfire.
There is the shouting of the chef in charge of stir-frying, roasting whole pigs, and roasting whole sheep.
The laughter of villagers carrying jars of wine from their homes, covered with dirt, looked like they had been treasured in their cellars for years.
There is the chatter of the women of the village helping to wash vegetables and pick leaves.
There was the sound of naughty boys chasing and fighting.
It's a busy scene.
Looking at the scene in front of him, it is estimated that it will not be long before the whole village banquet will be arranged.
Jin An frowned and watched the chef in the village every time he stir-fried vegetables, roasted whole pigs, roasted whole sheep, roasted roasted flower chicken, etc., every time he borrowed fire from the largest bonfire in the center of the clearing, his brows became tighter and tighter.
The location of his bonfire is the same place as the head sacrifice and the skin of men and women.
A thoughtful and terrifying detail climbed to Jin An's head.
The firewood used as fuel for the bonfire could not be the dense and countless human heads in the human head sacrifice?
So this flame is a phosphorus fire lit by the head of a dead man?
So what is this table full of food and drink...?
Jin An thought of the abnormal behavior of Song Fangping and his wife when he was at Song Fangping's house.
The answer is about to come out, the source of Taoyuan Village, the origin of all the curses, is related to the bonfire in front of him, and this bonfire is the fire that exists in Taoyuan Village.
In the mythological story, the mythical character who brought fire to the yang world is called Li.
It seems that in the world of the dead, there is also fire.
"Not enough, not enough, the fire burns harder. ”
"Today's fire is not strong enough, it has been delayed for a lot of time, today's village banquet has been delayed by a stick of incense than before, we have to continue to add firewood, otherwise this roasted pig will not be cooked. In case the outsiders who came to the village today did not have a good meal, they still thought that our Taoyuan Village was shabby, and we Taoyuan Village had to come up with the best things to receive guests. ”
The patriarch of Taoyuan Village shouted as he stood in front of the huge burning bonfire.
The red light of the flame infected the whole body of the old team leader with white hair and black red, black and red.
"Patriarch, I'll add a handful of firewood right away. ”
A villager shouted.
He was empty-handed, and had no dry wood to use for the fire, so he plunged into the bonfire, and sent him to death like a moth to a fire, and grew the flame of the bonfire.
"Hahaha, I'll add another fire, the meat that doesn't stew is not delicious. ”
Another villager rushed into the campfire with a moth to the fire.
These villagers were crazy and fanatical, one by one like moths to a fire, until a dozen or so people died, and the bonfire burned more and more, and the patriarch said that the fire was enough, enough, and the aroma of minced meat around the bonfire was stronger.
Seeing that the fire was almost off, the patriarch began to order people to go to Song Fangping's house, and invited Jin An and them to come to the banquet of the whole village to catch the wind and wash the dust for the outsiders.
Subsequently, several villagers began to run in the direction of Song Fangping's house. And after the buttocks of those adult villagers, they jumped up and down with a few big children and went to Song Fangping's house to join in the fun.
Just when Jin An paid attention to those few people, suddenly, snap!
A palm as thin as a chicken claw grabbed Jin An's wrist.
"Housheng, go, go, go, go, all the people in this village are crazy, they are about to take it back!"
"If you don't leave, it's too late!"
An unkempt old woman, dressed in tatters, dirty, stinking, like a crazy woman, she trembled and grabbed Jin An's wrist tightly, her eyes stared at Jin An, and her mouth was hoarse and roaring, as if her throat had been injured.
Jin An looked at the old woman in front of him in surprise.
Can the other party see him?
Living?
Feeling the faint body temperature coming from his wrist, like the faint body temperature of the wind and candle in the last year, and the lamp was exhausted, Jin An was even more stunned, how could there be a living person in Taoyuan Village, the dead man's village?
Could it be another outside intruder after them?
"Crazy?"
"What's crazy?"
"Old man, do you know anything about this Taoyuan Village?"
Jin An asked, and he felt that he was closer to the truth.
"Let's go!"
"This village is not alive!"
"We have all been deceived, we have all been deceived, Mr. Yuan, they have deceived our whole village, he is not giving us a makeover of Taoyuan Village, they are taking the lives of the whole village, changing the lives of the selfish ones! Taking more than 100 people in a village just to change the lives of one person! and innocently implicating a pair of my sons and daughters, is this your punishment for my mother?"
"My mother is wrong, take my mother with me. ”
"After all these years, you still refuse to forgive your mother?"
The old woman looked in the direction of the bonfire and cried bitterly: "Mother is wrong, mother should not listen to Mr. Yuan's lies, mother should not leave you." ”
