Smelling the smell of incense and candles, Xu Guodong unconsciously thought that he had smelled a similar smell in the small courtyard of the old Taoist.

At that time, the countryside was a small stronghold in the red wave, and all-round transformation, such as feudal superstition, had long been demolished, broken, and then burned.

Although some people still have the habit of worshiping their ancestors, and have never thought of turning the tablets of their ancestors into rotten wood, but in the general environment, many things cannot be placed on the surface, let alone be discovered.

The atmosphere of Linjia Village is not bad, because it is remote, and it is also the people of Linjia Village who come back to organize political activities in the village, so it is relatively polite in this regard.

can be polite, the rules that have been set, but the instructions issued from above cannot be observed.

Everyone knows that there is a tablet in this person's house, but no one will enshrine the ancestral tablet, those incense candles or something on the bright side, the most serious time, is to find a place to hide for a year, and when it comes to the New Year, only secretly take out the ancestral tablet, get a few yellow-faced buns, and worship it.

Only the first few years were good, communalization, big pot rice, although there was no private property at home, but everyone's life was also happy, full of food and drink, doing more and doing less, and then many places lied to ride the wind, and the yield of an acre of land rose like a plane.

Sometimes it's really not that easy to explain.

However, these things were trivial things for Xu Guodong at that time, after all, nothing can be more important than human life.

Especially since this thing happened around him, and even Xu Guodong and Lin Juan and the newborn child were involved, and now the matter is not just Xu Guodong's business, but the entire Lin Family Village.

If it was just to kill a few people, I'm afraid no one would make such a big fuss that the animals in the whole village would run out like crazy, and the animals in the village would all seem to be crazy.

It is not impossible to do this, but it requires manpower and material resources, which is really unimaginable.

And Xu Guodong couldn't figure out what people had to do to make the animals in the whole village fall into that crazy realm, and to be able to alarm the snakes, insects, rats and ants hiding in all corners, how did this happen?

Following Lin Laosan out of the courtyard of Lengwa's house, Xu Guodong was very worried now, he couldn't figure out what Lin Laosan and Lin Juan's third uncle meant.

It is not difficult to see from the previous performance that this Lin Laosan and Lengwa's mother have a great relationship, and there are secrets, if this matter is really made by the two of them, then why didn't Lin Laosan solve him at Lengwa's house?

It is a true truth that the dead will not let the secret be exposed.

Unless, Lin Laosan can have any other way to ensure that Xu Guodong will not tell this secret, he thought of Lin Juan and the child, and his heart became more and more uneasy.

But when things come to this step in front of him, stretching out his head is a knife, and shrinking his head is also a knife, at this time, Xu Guodong is completely stubborn and walks forward, keeping a distance between him and Lin Laosan, this distance will actually have no effect, Lin Laosan wants to attack him, but he can catch him in the blink of an eye.

His move is just to seek psychological comfort for himself.

Xu Guodong was very suspicious that he was of any use to Lin Laosan now, so he would make all these things, but this inference was a little unreasonable.

He went to the old Taoist's yard to see the situation of the old Taoist, it was completely an idea that came out of nowhere, and then he encountered such a thing, and it was also at Lin Juan's suggestion that the two discussed for a while, Xu Guodong himself thought that it was okay to do this, so there was such a thing as the two of them coming to Lin Laosan's house with their children.

And he took the initiative to come out with Lin Laosan, all of this was actually decided by Xu Guodong himself, Lin Juan just gave a suggestion, and did not help him make a decision.

No matter how you look at it, it's a coincidence to go to the old man's yard, it's a coincidence to come to Lin Laosan's house, it's a coincidence to come out with Lin Laosan, and it's a coincidence that someone fell off the roof when she walked to Lengwa's house...

Xu Guodong's mind was a little confused, and he couldn't understand why these coincidences were related together, which made people feel so terrible.

"If all this is not a coincidence..."

The body was wet by the rain, but the chill seemed to emanate from the inside out, a heart seemed to be completely frozen, and the cold feeling made Xu Guodong shiver in the rain.

Yes, it all seems like a coincidence, but when all these coincidences are not coincidences.

That's the most terrifying truth.

Xu Guodong stopped in place, looking at Lin Laosan's back a little hesitantly, and his heart was hesitating, wondering if it was a wrong decision for him to follow Lin Laosan to the old Taoist's courtyard.

Lin Laosan did not stop, still walking with a steady pace, walking forward with a deep foot and a shallow foot, not far away is the small courtyard where the old Taoist has lived for three years, the door of the small courtyard is wide open, like a giant beast hidden in the dark.

At this time, he was lying there motionless with his mouth open, waiting quietly, waiting for someone to walk over in person, deliver him to the door, and then be completely swallowed up by the darkness.

The cold penetrated the bone marrow, Xu Guodong at this time felt as if his whole person was frozen, and it was so difficult to move his fingers, at this time he couldn't feel the feeling of raindrops hitting his body, his whole body was wet, but he didn't care.

Lin Laosan was still walking forward, and there was already a short distance between him and Xu Guodong, to say the least, more than a dozen steps away.

Xu Guodong's eyes flickered, the distance between the two was not close at this time, and in the dark environment, people's sight would definitely not be too good, if he turned around and ran now, Lin Laosan would have no way to chase him even if he chased him, unless Lin Laosan did not chase him, but went directly back to his own home.

If Xu Guodong wants to escape, then the only way to do it is not to go to Lin Laosan's house and leave Lin Juan and the child there, but if so, what's the point of him running away?

In a flash of thought, Xu Guodong had already considered all the worst-case scenarios, and finally could only sigh helplessly, in such a situation, even if he ran away, there was no point, calm down and think about it, he now has no other choice than to follow Lin Laosan to that small courtyard.

A man is the pillar of the family, so he has to take on the corresponding responsibilities and become a family, then he is the highest person in the family, if the sky falls and someone wants to resist, this person can only be him.

Thinking of Lin Juan, Xu Guodong's heart was hot, although his body was still very cold, he still had the strength, walked a few steps quickly, followed Lin Laosan's footsteps, and walked in the direction of the small courtyard, the closer he got to the small courtyard, the more intense the anxiety in Xu Guodong's heart became.

Before entering the courtyard, it was vaguely as if I had already smelled the smell of incense and candles.

Looking at Lin Laosan, and then at the small dark courtyard, Xu Guodong suddenly thought that if he wasn't even afraid of Lin Laosan, there would just be a tablet in the room, a bowl of rice in front of it, and then a few pillars of yellow incense were inserted on it.

Although the courtyard was very different from the time he had come before, the dust on the floor of the room looked more like it had not been cleaned in years.

But this is all an environment that can be artificially created, just to make people feel frightened when they see it, but if you really see it clearly and know what is going on, these things will not smell of horror.

In Xu Guodong's concept, ghosts are completely imaginary, and it is said that seeing is believing, and he has not seen it, so he can't talk about being afraid.

Compared with ghosts, Xu Guodong is more afraid of people, such as Lin Laosan, who walked in front of him and never looked back at him.

The human heart is the terrible thing in this world, because you can't see through it, you can't touch it...
