A strange voice echoed outside the door, and Yue Jianghong listened to this strange voice, and his heart was extremely furious.

"The village chief's grandfather said that there are ghosts in the woods outside the village, and they will come out to eat people at night, so they don't want to eat me!" Yue Jianghong kept muttering in his heart, and he couldn't help but think of the scary stories that the village chief Yue told when he was a child.

One of them is a little imp with a tongue sticking out, coming out of the woods at night and looking for food. When the imp saw a person, the man couldn't see him, and the imp quietly approached the person, although the man couldn't see the imp, the imp was still extremely careful, afraid that the person would run away.

The little ghost approached the man, grabbed the man's neck, and with the other hand pulled out the man's soul from the top of his head, and then twisted his jaw and twisted it into a twist, and ate the man's soul like a twist flower. And the man seemed to hang himself, and his tongue was sticking out.

Yue Jianghong didn't know what a ghost looked like, and he didn't know what a soul was, but this story was really scary, and he didn't dare to go to the woods again for a long time.

Moreover, Yue Jianghong remembered that Old Lady Yue had said that the sound of a ghost was a whining sound.

He couldn't help curling up in the corner of the wall, and kept chanting in his mouth: "Uncle Ghost God passing by, the villain has not eaten enough since he was a child, and he has no meat on his body, it must not taste good, please let the Lord Ghost God let him go, and wait for the kid to eat more in the future, and then give it to the Uncle Ghost God to eat." ”

The voice outside ignored him, and then he said tentatively: "The second fat man of the Jiang family in the former village is very meaty, the ghost god uncle can go and eat him, his meat is very fragrant, I want to eat him." ”

There are four surnames in Jianglin Village, the first surname is surnamed Jiang, and now there are three families, among which the third family has a child named Jiang Erfat, who is very fat, and has a good relationship with Yue Jianghong. It's a pity that every time I am disappointed.

The voices outside still ignored him, whining and screaming, as if a ghost was crying, and as if the wind was blowing through the trees.

Fortunately, Yue Jianghong didn't see a ghost enter the house. In the second half of the night, Yue Jianghong couldn't help but feel sleepy and fell asleep.

On weekdays, Yue Jianghong slept in the haystack in the courtyard of Yue Zhong's house at night, lying on the haystack, he could see the lonely mountain, the moon on the lonely mountain, and the stars by the moon.

In rainy and snowy weather, Yue Jianghong will go to sleep in the old house, he was born in these two old houses, and naturally has a sense of intimacy with these two rooms, sleeping in his own old house, there is a different kind of peace of mind.

The old house nominally belonged to Yue Zhong and his family, and Yue Zhong and his family wanted to resell the house several times, when Yue Jianghong was four years old, the old house was indeed sold, and Jiang Bo's family took a fancy to it and spent a bag of refined wheat, because at that time Yue Jianghong's second aunt was pregnant, and Jiang Bo's family accompanied an old hen, and Yue Zhong agreed.

However, on the night that Jiang Bo's family moved in, the old earthen house was haunted, and all night, the old earthen house was surrounded by whining ghosts and weeping, and in the second half of the night, there were bursts of footsteps and whispers in the old earthen house. was so frightened that Jiang Bo's family ran away without waiting for dawn, and came back to move things at dawn the next day.

From that day on, Yue Jianghong's old earthen house became a haunted house, and no one had the idea of buying it again.

For this reason, Uncle Jiang's family and Yue Zhong's family fell out, and Yue Zhong, under the persuasion of the old lady Yue, returned the bag of refined wheat, but the old hen had been stewed for Yue Zhong's daughter-in-law to make up for her body, and she couldn't pay it back, so the two families had some grievances.

In short, the old earth house returned to Yue Zhong's name and did not go out, and Yue Jianghong's heart was a little settled.

As for what Uncle Jiang's family heard in the old earthen house of Yue Jianghong's family that night, no one knew. Jiang Bo was very secretive about what happened that night, and since then, he has not said a word.

However, this further deepens the eerie color of the old earthen house.

Yue Jianghong has been sleeping in the old mud house for a long time, and he has also become a strange existence in the village, which further deepens his identity as an "ominous person".

Even Yue Jianghong didn't expect that his identity as an "ominous person" was not only the beginning of his tragedy, but also his protective "umbrella". Because of all the weirdness that shrouded him, the people in the village didn't dare to take too much of him.

When he was seven years old, the third aunt of the Zhu family once plucked his ear, only to be pecked by a huge bird that night blinded her eyes. She thought she was going to be blind for the rest of her life, but by the second year, her eyes had miraculously recovered. But a year of blindness made her dare not touch Yue Jianghong again.

Jiang He, the eldest son of Jiang's second uncle, threw stones behind Yue Jianghong's eight-year-old Chaoyue Jianghong, causing Yue Jianghong to fall into a pile of cow dung. That night, Jiang He was bitten by a snake and died of foaming at the mouth on the spot, and was not saved.

From then on, no one dared to attack Yue Jianghong, and they could only use their tongues to benefit him. They listed Yue Jianghong as an absolute dangerous person, and then poured their anger on Yue Zhong and his wife.

The Yue family is lonely in Jianglin Village, leaving only Mrs. Yue, Yue Zhong, and Yue Jianghong, a total of four people, and one with a foreign surname.

Yue Zhong and his family couldn't have children, and the inheritance of the Yue family's incense fell on Yue Jianghong. Others think that this grandson of his is an ominous person, but he doesn't think so.

He always felt that his grandson was favored by God, and he would definitely do something in the future. So he spared no effort to defend Yue Jianghong.

Yue Jianghong has two protective "umbrellas", on the surface is his grandfather, and secretly he is his identity as an "ominous person". Two umbrellas nursed him until he was twelve years old, and he did not die in the village.

He became the hardest man in the village, after all, he often slept in the "haunted house" without any accidents.

This night, Yue Jianghong felt scared for the first time in his old house, and he was confused all night. He forced himself to sleep, after all, if the rain stopped, he still had to work.

Half-asleep and half-awake, Yue Jianghong felt that in the walls of the old earthen house, some yellow breath came into his stomach, floating in his stomach at will, some to the lower abdomen, some to the lungs, and some to the heart.

"I must be dreaming, how can a person see his own internal organs?"

He took a sip of saliva and only ate half a steamed bun for dinner, leaving his stomach empty.

In this way, Yue Jianghong was hit until dawn, and the devil crying at night did not stop, but listening to Yue Jianghong, he got used to it, he was no longer afraid, and he was finally able to sleep peacefully.

It was dawn, but the rain did not stop, and the rain had been falling for nine hours, as if the sky of the lonely mountain had leaked, and the water of the heavenly river was pouring down on the world.

Yue Jianghong is very happy, the rain means that he does not have to work, he is not like other people's children, who need to go out in the rain to collect pigweed, cut grass to feed cattle, or herd sheep. They can't raise anything, and the livestock they raise will die inexplicably, and then be taken away by inexplicable things. Even if it's a chicken, it's not big.

On weekdays, when it rains, Yue Jianghong will sneak into the jungle forest not far from the village, and now in this season, the wild fruits in the forest are especially abundant.

When you are full of wild fruits and save a meal for your second uncle's family, your second uncle will be very happy, and he will call him Jiang Hong.

He didn't like to be called "Sparrow", and he already knew that it was a curse in the village.

The people in the village said that he was a finch, that he could only jump in the sky a few meters high, and that he wanted to become the kind of Dahong that his mother wanted, but it was just a fool's dream and whimsical.

Yue Jianghong walked into the jungle, but he didn't dare to go far, at most he dared to go into a mile.

One mile, five hundred meters, a thousand steps, Yue Jianghong habitually counted silently in his heart.

The jungle was deep, and after walking three hundred steps, Yue Jianghong found that something was not right, the wild fruits in the forest seemed to have been eaten by something, and they were bitten into a mess. And judging from the tooth marks, it looks like it was left by an animal that looks like a cat that I once saw.

He didn't know what the animal's name was, but from the animal's bloody jaws and white fangs, he knew that the other party was most likely interested in the lean flesh on his body.

He turned around and ran, using all his strength, and finally ran into the village just as the cat-like animal was about to catch up with him, and saved his life.

"Did it leave it behind?"

Yue Jianghong's heart sank, that time was when he was ten years old, that is, the year before last, and now he still remembers it vividly.

"Could it be that by coincidence, I met it again?"

Yue Jianghong turned around and was about to run, when a behemoth suddenly burst out from behind the woods, with the body of an owl and a leopard, like a black cloud, covering his head.

Yue Jianghong was horrified: "I'm going to die, I'm going to die!"

He cried with an unsmooth voice: "Dad, mother, the child is not filial and has not taken care of himself, so he is going to meet you and the second elder!"

He suddenly turned around and faced the giant beast with the head of a cat and a leopard, and said to him: "This cat brother is still a leopard brother, please don't chew it when you eat me, can you swallow it whole?"

The giant beast tilted its head, its two eyes staring at Yue Jianghong like copper bells, and did not eat him immediately.

Yue Jianghong pleaded: "I don't remember what my father and mother look like, you ate me whole, and after I died, it was the whole thing, they can know me, and they can reunite with the family after they die." ”

After speaking, Yue Jianghong closed his eyes and waited for the final fate of death.

After a long time, seeing that the giant beast had not yet opened his mouth, Yue Jianghong quietly opened his eyes, and the rain fell with his scalp, sticking to his eyelids.

Through the rain, he saw the beast in front of him watching him.

To be precise, he was looking at the remnant jade around his neck.

He hurriedly said: "Brother Cat, do you like this piece of jade? If you can get it, you can just take it, I will definitely not frown." ”

After speaking, his brows furrowed, if the remnant jade was lost, there would be nothing left for him by his parents.

The most important thing for now, though, is to survive.

To live, who wants to die?
