Chapter 3 Maybe it's not people outside the door at all
Came to me in the middle of the night, no mistake.
Meng Zhang didn't figure it out, it's freezing this day, you don't stay at home, what are you doing here in the middle of the night?
Just because he released the village chief's pigeon during the day, he came to Xingshi to ask for guilt?
Not really, after all, it's not just his own family that wants to receive the money, and the village chief just works normally.
Taking a step back, even if you come to find trouble, can't you do it during the day?
You must know that the compensation for Meng Zhang's land requisition is still in the hands of the village chief, and it was Meng Zhang who asked the other party for money, not the village chief asking Meng Zhang for money, is it so positive?
The village chief is afraid that he can't wait until he doesn't go, so how can he take the initiative to find it.
The doubts in his heart were manifested in hesitation in action, and Meng Zhang did not immediately respond to the village chief's question.
"Zhang Wazi, are you there?"
The same question came again, only this time it was accompanied not by a knock but a bang.
With such a big movement, no matter how well you sleep, you will be woken up.
Meng Zhang would definitely respond when he changed to others, but at this time, he just opened his eyes wide and looked at the door with a shocked expression, as if what he saw was not the decayed wooden door of the old house, but something incredible.
If Meng Zhang remembered correctly, when he staggered back to the house because of the sudden dizziness, the door of the old house was just casually brought with him, and on the surface it seemed to be closed, but in fact, the door bolt was not buckled at all. Meng Zhang's old house had not been inhabited for many years, and many things had decayed due to neglect, and the two wooden doors were one of them. The rotten wooden door without a deadbolt could be pushed open with a little force, let alone slammed hard.
Under normal circumstances, the door would have been opened early if it was slapped like this, but now it didn't move at all and didn't even shake at all, such a strange scene would be forgotten if it wasn't discovered, and Meng Zhang broke out in a cold sweat after discovering it.
Who is the man outside the door, why is he lying to me, and what is his intention?
Or rather, it's not people at all outside the door.
Before encountering Wong Tai Sin's begging for a seal, Meng Zhang was still a staunch member of the Great Scientology Cult, but after that, his Scientology faith had been shattered. Even Wong Tai Sin can speak, even monsters have it, what else is there to refuse.
Isn't a small mountain village like this next to a big mountain is a place where some mountain spirits and wild monsters haunt?
In the middle of the night, I met an unknown creature calling the door, and I was panicked, but I had no experience in this kind of thing.
Lying on the bed, even though Meng Zhang was covered with a quilt, he was still very cold, although he asked himself if he had done anything wrong, but who could not panic when he encountered this kind of supernatural event similar to a ghost calling the door in the middle of the night. He kept his eyes open, staring at the door in the darkness without blinking, for fear that the next moment the thing outside that he didn't know if it was a person or a ghost would break into the door.
It was only then that Meng Zhang understood why Wong Tai Sin left behind a sentence of 'a place of right and wrong, it is not advisable to stay for a long time', it turned out that this place was really unsafe.
In fact, if Meng Zhang hadn't used a demon suppression strategy to make him fall asleep all day, he would have gotten the money from the village chief during the day, and he would have been on his way back at this time, and there would be no current crisis.
Now that it has happened, regret will not be of any use, and what can be done now is how to face the crisis and how to solve it.
Meng Zhang understands, but he doesn't have a very good way. The only thing he could do at this time was to squeeze the black card in his hand, which was his only reliance.
The sound of banging on the door continued for a while, and the unknown creature outside the door turned over and over with one sentence: "Zhang Wazi, are you there?"
As everyone knows, its performance made Meng Zhang more and more sure that it was definitely not the village chief who was outside the door, because it was impossible for a person to have the same tone and tone of every sentence.
I don't know what the reason is, the unknown creature outside the door has never pushed the door open, in fact, it only needs to use light force to open the unlocked wooden door, and Meng Zhang in the house will also be exposed.
After patting the door for a while, there was no response in the house, and the unknown creature outside the door probably thought that there was really no one in the house, and the sound of banging on the door and questioning stopped abruptly, and then Meng Zhang heard the sound of departing footsteps.
The footsteps were so light that Meng Zhang was not engrossed, and he couldn't even notice it in the silence of the night.
The guy outside the door is gone?
Secretly relieved, Meng Zhang didn't make any sound, still maintained his previous posture, and didn't even move his fingers.
He wasn't sure if the unknown creature was cheating on himself, and he wasn't sure if he would make a sound if he moved, so Meng Zhang made the most conservative choice, which was to be still as good as still. He didn't want to be the kind of self-aggressor who thought the other party had left, and then exposed himself to being killed by someone else.
It's a shame that Meng Zhang was lying on the bed before, otherwise he might not be able to maintain a certain posture all the time. It's just that physically, although there is no sin, psychologically it is not. Meng Zhang didn't know what time it was, and he didn't know how long the night would be, so he could only wait and wait.
Hold on for a while, hold on for a while...... I can't remember how many insistences I had silently recited, how many times I had survived, and just when Meng Zhang felt that he was almost at the limit, the sky finally began to brighten.
The night passed.
The moment the morning sun peeks out from the horizon to shine light to expel the darkness, there is a sound of 'stamping' outside the wooden door that extends into the distance. The sound was slow at first, and then became urgent as the sky became brighter and brighter, from the previous 'stampede' to 'stamped', fully demonstrating the whole process from slow to trot to wild running.
His heart was pounding, as if a big drum was beating, and goosebumps rose on Meng Zhang's skin, and he realized how right he was to choose a conservative approach.
The unknown creature was really cheating on him, and the guy hid outside the door and didn't leave until it was dark.
Just imagine, if Meng Zhang was deceived by it, thought that this guy had left and relaxed his vigilance, and even opened the door to look out, what would happen Meng Zhang himself didn't dare to think about the consequences.
Unknown creatures are cunning and patient, like hunters in the mountains and forests, and extremely dangerous.
Fortunately, the danger finally passed, and a stone in Meng Zhang's heart fell to the ground.
"Could it be that the old house has not been inhabited for many years, has not been popular all year round, and the location is remote, so it will encounter strange things? No, I have to leave quickly. ”
As an ordinary ordinary person, Meng Zhang's first reaction when encountering a supernatural event was to hide as far away as possible.
As for calling the police, not to mention the fact that the phone is out of battery, it is a big problem just because others don't believe it.
Lifting the quilt, Meng Zhang didn't care about tidying up, he grabbed the backpack placed at the head of the bed and carefully opened the door.
He didn't plan to pack up the things in the old house, anyway, the important ones were in the bag, and now he just wanted to leave here as soon as possible, he didn't dare to stay in this mountain village anymore, and he could only feel safe when he returned to the crowded city, but he still had to go to the village chief's house to get money before leaving.
Let's hope there aren't any accidents.
