Volume 2 College University! Chapter 60: Shadows in the Dark (3)
Shen Fei didn't look at this cat for nothing
Except that this cat is very similar to the cat that Sun Jun said was stoned to death
He also found that the spiritual power of this cat made him feel very strange, and he had been using the color to be domineering and feel the cat, after all, the function of seeing and hearing color is not only to perceive the opponent's movements, he can also sense the strength of the creature, and perceive the emotions and thoughts of the creature.
Shen Fei noticed that this cat had an aura that was obviously different from other cats. If he felt it carefully, Shen Fei was taken aback, he even had some doubts about whether this cat was a living thing, whether it would be a ghost left by a dead cat in this world, after all, the aura emitted by this cat was not like life at all, it had no emotional fluctuations, and its thinking was like a paste, which did not seem to be the performance of a life at all.
The black cat's movements were not flexible, and even a little stiff, and when it walked back to the yard slowly, it only listened to the wooden wind chimes at the door moving, and the wooden planks struck each other, making a crisp sound, which made people a little creepy in broad daylight.
The first wind chime moved, and the next one began to ring, one after the other, and after a few seconds, it stopped, and there was a wonderful rhythm.
Although the sound of such wind chimes is not as loud as the sound of metal and glass, the sound of these wind chimes is particularly long, and Shen Fei can hear this strange echo clearly in his ears through the glass of the car. And the sound of all the wind chimes is the same, exactly the same sound, just like the workers of the assembly line, with a strange neatness, but at this moment, the swing of the wind chimes in Shen Fei's eyelashes is different, which is really a little strange.
Shen Fei slowly opened the writing wheel eye, and began to make a detailed comparison of these weird wind chimes, the three hooks turned wildly, and at this moment, the picture in Shen Fei's eyelashes was divided into many grids, just like the monitoring room in the movie, there were many different screens, but this time the content on the screen was the wind chimes at different doors.
Wind chimes, which ring at the same time, merge into one, but the parts and amplitude of these wind chimes are different, and another similarity in addition to the sound is that the two wooden blocks that produce each sound correspond to each color. Yellow collides with white, white collides with blue, and at the same time, yellow collides with white, followed by blue...... This is true in every cell, without a single exception.
Perhaps this is a breaking point?
The strange feeling became more and more intense, and the amplitude of the wind chimes became larger and larger.
Shen Fei took a deep breath
Retired the car into neutral, pulled the handbrake, and slowly got out of the car and walked to the yard where the black cat entered.
The yard was clean and tidy, the gate was open, as was the gate of the small building inside. It gives a very empty feeling
The living room has a sofa, a TV, a refrigerator, an air conditioner, a coffee table, all modern furniture, but in such a living room, there is a dilapidated wooden rocking chair that does not fit.
On the chair sat an old lady who looked to be in her seventies, she was wearing a saffron old era robe, blue old cloth shoes on her feet, her head was full of silver threads, and her face was like withered old bark, but there was no dog giving people a terrifying feeling, but a strange serenity, and the large pu fan in her hand shook gently. His eyes were half-squinted, his mouth should be on the radio next to him, humming the tune of the opera softly, Shen Fei listened carefully to the opera here, and he couldn't hear the babbling clearly, but listening to the tune, it seemed to be a sad tune.
At this time, the big black cat flowed from the threshold like a liquid, walked to the old lady with its little short legs, sat on the old lady's feet, and scratched the old lady's trouser leg with its paws, but immediately chose to give up, lying directly on the old lady's shoes, and dozing with his tail.
The feeling on the orange cat's body made Shen Fei feel weird, so he also used what he saw and heard to dominate the old lady at the moment, but unexpectedly this old lady was clean, except for the weaker mental power, it was no different from ordinary people, and he didn't find anyone else hidden in the house.
Bang Bang!
Shen Fei knocked on the open door
But the old lady was humming the tune very devotedly. Judging by the volume of the radio, this old lady did not look like a person behind her ears, and it was impossible not to hear the door.
Boom! Boom!
Shen Fei increased his strength and continued to knock on the door, and his mouth also moved at this time, and he shouted: "Hello old lady!" ”
At this moment, the old lady seemed to react, and the rocking chair on which she was lying began to slowly stabilize
Her humming came to an abrupt halt. The old lady blinked a little confusedly, looked left and right as if looking for someone shouting, and looked around for a long time before she found the source of the voice.
The wrinkles on the old lady's face are really obvious, there are some old age spots, and the nails on a pair of withered hands are also much longer than ordinary people, giving Shen Fei a feeling that seeing the cat-faced old lady in her previous life is indeed a little crazy, her eyes are as muddy as many old people, and she looked at Shen Fei for a long time before asking slowly: "Little baby, who are you looking for?" ”
There was nothing unusual in her eyes, as if she was looking at a stranger, but there was no indifference or vigilance in her eyes.
Shen Fei said happily in his heart
That's a good sign!
"Hello grandma, I'm from out of town, Yancheng you know, right? The capital of Huayun, I came here to travel. Do you have a hotel here? Shen Fei asked kindly with a smile in his voice.
The old lady shook her head, "No, where is the hotel here!" ”
"Then can you recommend an amiable fellow who I can borrow from his house?" Shen Fei continued to ask.
"I don't know them well, if you want to live, you have to rely on yourself, you can find someone to ask by yourself." The old lady continued to shake her head.
Shen Fei was silent for a moment and continued
"Okay, can I come in and sit down?" Shen Fei asked with a cheerful smile
The old lady was silent for a while, looking at Shen Fei, as if she wanted to see something famous from his face, he nodded and said, "Okay, you can come in if you want to come in, just come in and sit down." ”
After a burst of footsteps, Shen Fei stepped into the threshold and entered the room.
The old lady turned off the radio, pointed to the couch next to her, lifted her butt slightly, and turned the chair at an angle with the armrest of the rocking chair to face the couch.
Shen Fei did it, but his eyes looked at the cat at the old lady's feet.
The black cat rolled over as if it were really like a liquid, and as soon as the old lady moved, it rolled down from the old lady's feet, lazily revealing its furry belly, not at all like a different demon cat.
"Do you want to ask me something?" The old lady asked suddenly.
Shen Fei glanced at the old lady in surprise and nodded
"Yes, I have something I want to ask you about. When I came over, I saw that the people here didn't seem to welcome outsiders very much. Is there any taboo here, and did I do anything when I came in? Shen Fei asked.
The old lady was silent for a moment, and said in a hoarse voice
"We don't welcome people from outside, and your experience is normal." The old lady was very calm, as if there was nothing strange about it.
"Small place, usually no one comes, we don't want to be disturbed by outsiders, after all, the mess made by outsiders last time has not been solved, you are here to travel, right? It's definitely a place to go, so you might as well go to another village. There are other villages around here, and this is really not a place to visit,"
"Just don't welcome outsiders?" Shen Fei frowned and asked.
"Hmm." The old lady was unfazed
At this moment, Shen Fei's words changed
"So what's going on with the wind chimes outside, I'm a little curious?"
The old lady sighed, "This is our custom here, when someone dies, they have to hang wind chimes, and every household hangs them to show the way for the dead." ”
"If you take the liberty of asking, have you ever passed away?" Shen Fei asked.
The old lady still had the same expression, "It's my cat, but it's almost like a relative." Our family treats it as a part of the family, and it is with me when we eat and sleep. ”
The black cat seemed to be really evil, and when he heard this, his body twisted on the ground, and he turned over with difficulty, and rubbed against one of the old lady's shoes, and scratched the old lady's other shoe with its paws, as if trying to attract the old man's attention.
The black cloth shoes have cat hair and cat paw prints on the surface, and the old lady's trouser legs and clothes also have these marks.
"You go now, before it gets dark." The old lady said suddenly.
"Is there anything special about it?" Shen Fei asked curiously
"We're going to be funeral when it's dark. When a family goes out of the funeral, no one else can come out, and there must be no one on the street, otherwise it will be unlucky, and it may disturb the peace of the deceased, and he cannot be reincarnated properly. So, go back early. The old lady patiently explained, as if looking at Shen Fei's kind face and giving him guidance.
"That's ......" Shen Fei's words were not finished.
"Who are you?" A woman's voice came from outside the door
Shen Fei quickly turned around, and the woman who hung the wind chimes just now appeared in front of him.
She looked wary and disgusted, similar to the people in the village, if not even worse.
"Auntie, excuse me." Shen Fei said apologetically.
The old lady waved her hand, "It's okay, it's okay, he's not with them, this little baby is from out of town, just ask something, don't be nervous." ”
The woman's expression changed a little better, and only coldness remained.
The old lady looked at Shen Fei
The implication is self-evident
"Then I'll take my leave, you always pay attention to your body," Shen Fei arched his hand
Shen Fei got up, but when he went out, there was one more footsteps.
The sound of opera resounded.
Shen Fei turned around and found the woman following him. As if she was escorting a prisoner, she kept following Shen Fei, staring at Shen Fei tightly, for fear that he would not leave.
"Auntie, what do you mean by this?" Shen Fei frowned
"Wind chimes, our family is dead. Hurry up, we have a funeral in the evening. Outsiders don't make trouble, otherwise we won't care if something happens. The woman said impatiently.
Shen Fei got into the car, and the woman kept standing at the door watching.
Staring at the car
At this time, the doors of all roads were hung with those kind of wind chimes.
Shen Fei looked at the street, on the left was the tall trees in the yard, the branches of which were sticking out of the fence, and on the right were the wind chimes on the street. The wind chimes did not move, and the leaves rustled.
The car starts, turns around
Shen Fei drove away from the village.
Behind the vehicle, the village slowly moved away.
