After I kicked it, the bowl rolled on the ground a few times, and some of the rice in it fell to the ground.

The uncle, who was walking in front of him, seemed to hear the voice, and he suddenly stopped, turned his head sharply and glared at me, as if he owed him money.

I couldn't help but curse in my heart, this man is really cautious, didn't he just kick your bowl, why are you looking at me like this? "Young man, be careful when you walk, it's better not to touch that bowl!"

He said coldly.

Yan Xun next to me looked at me blankly, and then carefully bypassed the bowl.

I picked up the bowl I had accidentally kicked and put it back in place, then closed the door and headed for the back room.

The courtyard of this house is a square shape, and when you enter the door, you are facing the uncle's own house, with a hall on the outside, and on both sides are the houses used to receive guests.

My room was the first one on the left, and the two rooms opposite me were Smoked and the white-robed little brother.

The middle of the courtyard is hollowed, and in the middle is a piece of stone brick with lace, on which are placed a few small chairs and a square table made of wood, which should be used to cool off.

The environment in the house is not bad, there are mattresses on the big earthen kang, and two quilts and pillows are placed, which look like they have only been newly replaced.

I put my backpack next to the wall and cleaned it up briefly, when sleepiness hit, I sat on the edge of the kang and yawned vigorously.

After a whole day in the car, at this time, I just want to quickly get into the bed and sleep beautifully.

In the middle of the night, I was sleeping soundly when I suddenly heard someone knocking on the window.

"Dangdang dang ......" is not loud, but it is clear.

I thought it was the uncle who was working on the window, so I rolled over a little impatiently and continued to fall asleep.

"Dangdang ......" Not long after, the sound of knocking on the window came again.

Finally, I managed to wake up and curse at the window.

"Who! It's endless in the middle of the night, so I don't let people sleep! ”

But instead of stopping, the voice became more rapid.

I was so angry that I grabbed a piece of clothing and put it on my body, and walked over with my shoes on.

If I knew who didn't sleep in the middle of the night and played a prank under the window, I'd have to open this boy's ass.

But the moment I pushed open the window, a cold wind from outside penetrated into my neck, freezing me and sobering me up a lot.

There were no farts around the window, and there were no human figures in sight, only a large area of land, and the insects in it kept screaming.

I closed the window in disbelief, thinking back to the moment when the sound was so real, it was strange why there was nothing when I opened the window.

Early the next morning, when I came out of the house, I happened to see Yan Xun and the white-robed brother sitting on chairs in the courtyard, basking in the sun and eating breakfast.

"Come and eat!"

Yan Xun waved his hand when he saw me, and said inarticulately.

I walked over and sat down on an empty chair, my mind still floating under the covers, and if it hadn't been for the sound of last night that had kept me awake, I might have been in good spirits by now.

The white-robed little brother raised his head and looked at me, and said in surprise, "What's wrong with you?" Dark circles like a panda? ”

I sighed deeply.

"Don't mention it, I fell asleep last night and suddenly heard someone knocking on my window, knocking for a long time without stopping, asking who it was, and no one said anything, but I opened the window, and there was no fart!"

At this time, Yan Xun raised his head and said casually: "Maybe it was a prank by the children in the village, and it was not discovered by you?" ”

"Who doesn't sleep in the middle of the night and runs out to play pranks! It's still with me, how much enmity does he have with me? ”

I'm angry and my face is red and my neck is thick.

"Hey! Why are you so unreasonable......" Yan Xun leaned over with his neck tilted, without showing weakness.

"Alright, alright!"

Seeing that neither of us would let anyone, the white-robed little brother sitting on the side quickly raised his hand to stop this war of words that was about to break out.

"Can you take care of the business first, we're the ones who have to hurry!"

Yan Xun and I glared at each other, don't turn our heads and snort coldly.

After dinner, I found my uncle's house.

"Uncle, please ask you, when will the shuttle bus from here to Sipin County come?"

I saw the uncle walk out of the house slowly with his hands behind his back, and said in his hoarse voice: "Our village is relatively remote, this bus only comes once in two days, you just arrived here yesterday, if you want to wait for the next bus, it is estimated that it will be tomorrow morning!" ”

After hearing this news, my heart suddenly became unbeautiful, I didn't have much affection for this village, but now I have to toss for one more day, which is really a trick.

I walked out of the house, and Yan Xun, who was sitting on a chair in the yard, saw that my face was ugly, and she asked tentatively, "Is there no car?" ”

"Yes, Uncle said that the next bus will not be until tomorrow morning, so we have to stay here for one more day!"

As soon as the words fell, I saw the white-robed little brother walking out of the house.

"It's okay, I'm going to go outside, do you two want to come with me?"

Seeing that he looked calm and composed, Yan Xun and I followed him for no reason.

The three of us went out and walked along the dirt road in the village, but after walking for a long time, we didn't see a single person.

I muttered to myself, don't all the people in this village go out? What do you do by holding yourself at home one by one? It's sunny outside.

Suddenly, a woman in a large gray cotton jacket came from not far away, she lowered her head, as if she was deliberately avoiding her, not wanting to be seen.

"Hello......" I was about to walk up to say hello, but before I could finish my words, the woman suddenly raised her head, looked at me with a frightened look, as if she had seen you, and quickly turned around and ran out.

I was so frightened by her inexplicable behavior that I even thought there was something on my face.

"You wait!"

I ran after it and grabbed the woman's arm.

The next second, the woman shook off my hand like crazy, ran into the house, and locked the door with a heavy back.

"What do you think happened to the people here? When we see us, we will run, and I will not eat her! ”

Yan Xun shook his head, a little incomprehensible.

After we finished the village, we realized that the people in this village were very strange, they never went out, they didn't speak when they went out, and they had a strange look when they saw outsiders, and there was a bowl in front of each house, which was filled with rice, like some kind of ritual.

At first I thought it was the village that was following the lifestyle of the older generation, but then I realized that I was wrong, and I was very wrong.
