Chapter Twenty-Four: The Path
Leng Daxian'er followed the village chief to the warehouse to prepare to see who the demon was worshipping, Wang Yu and they also followed to see, originally Qian Qian and I also wanted to take a look, but Ruan Lili brought Ye Anxu's words, saying that there was something wrong with Ling Yi and told me to hurry over, I asked what the situation was, she couldn't say it clearly, so I didn't have time to worry about her framing the calf, and went to Aunt Qin's house when we went out, because Ling Yi was at Aunt Qin's house.
The full moon hung in the black night, the scattered stars twinkled hard, the atmosphere was heavy for no reason, Aunt Qin's house was not far from the village chief's house, but it also took five or six minutes to walk, the shadows of the trees on the side of the road, cast on the yellow and old peeling house walls, the wind was blowing and moving, just like the ghost hands that were ready to lock people's souls, coupled with the tranquility of the country night, the occasional dog barking also felt like a ghost howl, and I felt a little gloomy for no reason. Walking under the moonlit dirt road, looking at those moving and distorting shadows, I always felt a chill all over my body, I couldn't help but shrink my neck, looked at the ignorant Sissi, and rose with envy.
After a tired day, my body was a little weak, I felt that my steps were getting heavier and heavier, and my eyelids were a little unable to open, dragging my tired body forward, Aunt Qin's home was so far away, it seemed that I couldn't go to the end, I was really tired, it would be nice if I could take a break, the last thought flashed in my mind, and I fell headlong and didn't know it.
When I woke up, I realized that something was wrong, I moved, and found that I was tied up, and the fingers tied behind my back, touched the wet soil, the surroundings were dark and gloomy, the air was also damp, and there was an indescribable musty smell, I speculated that this should be a cellar or something, calm down and looked around, there was a black shadow creeping on the ground not far from me, it seemed that it should be a person, I tentatively shouted: "Sissi? The man didn't move, I struggled to move that way, sweating to get there.
"Sissi!!" I kicked her with both legs and called out loudly, Sissi moved, humming and muttering, "Don't be noisy, I'm going to sleep a little longer!" "That's too big, isn't it? Hearing her unconscious murmuring, I couldn't help but cry and laugh, in this case, she thought she was sleeping in her own home? So I woke her up.
When Sissi woke up and found that something was wrong, she couldn't help but panic and asked me what was going on? I sighed and said the way of others, Sissi struggled for a long time to sit up, scolding who is so lacking in morality? I sneered and said who else could there be? When Qian Qian heard this, she suddenly came back to her memory, and said excitedly that it was Ruan Lili? I said, who else but her is so scheming? Even she fell in love with her.
Sissi said angrily: "We didn't offend her, and we helped her, why did she do this?" I said, "Who told you to eavesdrop on other people's secrets?" β
Sissi was shocked: "She knows? Then why did she arrest you? β
"Can you grow your brains?" I despaired of her intelligence: "You are not the only one who knows her secret, but also me, how can she just get rid of you and let me go?" Are you stupid for her? β
Sissi hung her head: "I thought she found out that I was eavesdropping!" β
"Maybe, maybe I heard you and me!" I analyzed: "But either way, she won't let me go!" If it was just you eavesdropping and being discovered, then I was in contact with you later, and she would also suspect that you told me about it, no evidence is needed, just suspicion is enough, after all, this kind of thing is related to her safety, if she also overhears our conversation, then she will not let me go, because it has been determined that we know her secret! β
"How did she get it?" I didn't expect Sissi's brain, and said directly: "I'm afraid it's the two cups of tea that came in, no wonder it tastes weird, I thought it was expired, presumably she just put enough medicine in it to make us sleep." β
"What a damn thing!" Sissi was very annoyed, she was not afraid if she used force, but the key was that she couldn't do it: "Isn't she afraid of being discovered if she does this?" What an ungrateful white-eyed wolf! β
"What is she afraid of?" The left and right hands moved behind his back, hoping to break free: "We have just met, even if something happens, no one will doubt that we have no grudges against her, not to mention that we are a little kind to her!" In the impression of the villagers, she is a good child, and the police will not suspect her, as long as she washes the two cups we used, who will suspect that she did it? β
"Will you just let her go?" Sissi was very unwilling, and I was surprised that her focus was always so different: "The most important thing now is to figure out how to get there, big sister!" β
"Yes!" Sissi was stunned for a moment and said, "What then?" β
"What can I do?" Although she couldn't see in the night, I still rolled my eyes helplessly: "When I woke up just now, I found that my body was very numb, and I should have kept the same position after being drugged, so I must have slept for two or three hours!" Calculate that it was more than eight o'clock when we came out, so the current time should be around twelve o'clock, if we don't go back for a long time, someone should come to us! But no one is looking for it now, so she should have been prepared and told the fat aunt that we went somewhere else! β
"But I won't see anyone tomorrow, Ye Anxu and they will always come to find it!"
"Hehe" I laughed at Sissi for being too naΓ―ve: "The key is for us to live to that time!" I heard the village chief say that there is a river not far from the village, and when the time comes, when the person dies, he throws it into the river, and the river is flowing again, who can find it? There is only one excuse for disappearance, which is enough to send everyone away, Ye Anxu is just a colleague, and not our father, is it possible that he will still leave his business and do nothing, and leave the two of us naked? Even if it were, we were all dead, and even if he found it, it would only be a corpse! β
Sissi shuddered after hearing this: "She can't really be that ruthless, right?" Anyway, we have a kindness to her, it's a big deal not to say it! β
"Do you think she'll believe it?" This sentence is meaningful: "Only the dead can keep secrets!" β
"Sure enough, you're a smart man!" The top was suddenly lifted, shooting down a dim light, through the light I saw the stairs of the earthen rampart, not long, only about ten steps, the straight line is only about two to three meters away from the exit, Ruan Lili walked down with a candle in her hand, put the burning candle on the side of the wooden cabinet, and in the other hand, holding a worn-out notebook, it looks a little familiar.
