I couldn't help but feel a sense of indescribable oppression in my heart.

Two days ago, when it was dark on the day I dug the stele, it was he who came into the house and gave me a black sign.

I thought to myself, this person somehow stuffed a black sign into me, I don't know what the use of it is, what is he doing at my house today.

He smiled strangely at me from afar and said, "Two people have died in two days, and the remaining few people are not far from death." Are you willing to die or do you want to live? ”

The people in the mountains have an unwritten rule that they can't say unlucky things early in the morning, but this person is good enough to come to my door and say such unlucky words to me.

I was a little suspicious of him, because when he came into the house and asked me for water that day, he said those godly babbling things, which made me think that he was probably mentally ill. In this world, don't mess with the mentally ill about anything, even if they kill someone, they will give a light sentence or even no sentence.

But today he came early in the morning to give me bad luck, and I have to go back to him no matter who he is.

"Hey, big brother, I said you don't have a problem with your brain, that's why you talk like that. Early in the morning, curse people to live and die. I replied with a dark face.

The corners of the man's mouth rose and he said, "You don't care if I have a problem with my brain, you just have to make a choice." Life or death. ”

Hey, I'm going, I've really met a strange flower.

I snorted and said to the man, "You really have a problem with your brain, I don't have time to talk to you." ”

The man was not angry, and kept looking at me with a smile on his face, "Twenty-one years ago, someone else made a choice for you in this life, and now your life can only depend on yourself." ”

When he said this, I couldn't help but be stunned, who was he, it seemed that he knew about my father erecting a monument to me twenty-one years ago to save my life.

I stared at him and asked word by word, "Who are you?" ”

"Nature is someone who can help you."

"Why should I believe you?" , I asked.

"Next, there will be three things in your village that you have never heard of," the man said, no longer smiling, but his face became a little serious.

Seeing his serious appearance, I also had a little drum in my heart, so I asked, "What are the three things?" ”

"First, dry wells and yellow springs, second, thousands of rats worship coffins, and third, hundreds of birds and phoenixes."

As soon as the man's words fell, I caught a glimpse of two policemen on the left side of the path. It was He Shuang who walked in front, Du Wei followed behind, and she still looked at me from time to time.

"If these three things happen, I'll come back to you again." , said the man. "In addition, you have to keep the black tag I gave you."

With a solemn face, I nodded at him and said, "Okay, I'll take good care of it." But what if nothing strange happened in the village? ”

By the time I asked this question, He Shuang and Du Wei had already reached a distance of four meters to my left.

The man from earlier looked at them, smiled at me, and didn't immediately reply.

"Wu Thirteen, who are you talking to?" , He Shuang's voice came.

When I heard this, I looked at her and found that He Shuang was looking at me like a monster, looking at me with very strange eyes.

Such a big living person is standing in front of me, and you ask me who I am talking to, isn't it that I have nothing to say? I thought so to myself, and when I looked back, I couldn't help but be shocked.

How could it be that the man had gone without a trace. From the time I looked at He Shuang to the time I turned back again, it was only a dozen seconds, how could he disappear in such a short time.

In horror, I pointed to the place where he had just stood, looked at He Shuang, and said, "You—Didn't you see him?" I ...... just now."

Du Wei said: "People? Except for you, where did you come from, we didn't even see a ghost. ”

What he said made my heart terrified, how could it be. When I spoke to the man earlier, the two of them were so far away that they could see it clearly.

I suppressed my fear and was calm on the surface. You don't have to ask to know that they should be here for Li Er's death.

The morning sun was good, so I brought three chairs and placed them in the courtyard.

"Wu Thirteen, didn't you say that when your grandfather comes back, let you bring him to the police station to make a record? It's been three days, and I haven't seen him yet. As soon as He Xue sat down, he opened his mouth and asked.

When we were taken to take notes that day, I told the police that my grandfather was out and not at home. I was going to take my grandfather to the police station when he got home, but I didn't know that this happened to my grandfather.

"Oh, my grandfather is not feeling well, very weak, and may have to wait a few more days." , I said truthfully.

Du Wei interjected on the side and said: "If the old man is sick, take him to the hospital to see, don't drag it, now there is medical insurance, and it doesn't cost much." ”

In order to prevent me from lying, He Shuang went into my grandfather's room to check it out under the pretext of visiting the old man.

Next, they interrogated me again, and roughly asked Wang Dacai repeatedly about whether anything strange happened when they forced me to dig up the stone tablet and when they dug up the coffin.

He Xue also popularized science, saying that the coffin looked a little old, but it was not rotten at all, so there may be highly toxic germs or something in the coffin, let me pay attention to my body.

When Du Wei was in my house, He Xue asked me in a low voice: "That day, you told Director Gao that the antiquities in the coffin, is it true?" ”

I said, "Hey, even if I say it's true, it's useless now, and they have sold everything." ”

He Xue's eyes lit up, "Do you know who to sell?" ”

I thought about it, Wang Dacai is ruthless, his gang of brothers is absolutely impossible to publicize, and Li Er and Huang Hai are dead.

So if I say now that they are going to sell the ancient lamp to the lame man, he will definitely know that I said it. Right now, I still have to find my grandfather's soul, and I can't go against Wang Dacai.

Thinking of this, I said to He Xue: "I don't know, they didn't say it." ”

Before leaving, He Xue said to me: "Anyone who came into contact with Li Er that day is suspicious, if you want to leave the town, it is best to report it in advance." ”

Not long after they left, Wang Dacai came to the door and threatened me: "Wu Thirteen, you'd better be honest with me, don't stab Lou Zi in front of the police." ”

I snorted coldly: "People are watching the sky, I don't bother to care about your." ”

That afternoon, something strange happened in the village.

The villagers all gave up their farm work and gathered under a large locust tree in the village.

The big locust tree was as thick as three adult men hugging it, and it was at least a few hundred years old. No one knows the specifics, but I heard the hundred-year-old people in the village say that their ancestors, the big locust tree is there.

The incense under the big locust tree is vigorous, it has not been broken, and the rural people think that those things that are hundreds of years old are spiritual, and often go to the big locust tree to make a wish and ask for peace.

I have always felt that this kind of behavior is the belief of the villagers, the spiritual sustenance, and the solution of the knot.

However, what the villagers are watching today is not the big locust tree, but the dry well under the big locust tree.

The well is said to have been dug during the Ming Dynasty, and the county cultural relics bureau also came to see it and protected it together with the big locust tree.

I also rushed to join in the fun, and I heard the sound of rushing water in the distance, and I suddenly muttered in my heart.

When I got there, I found that a large stream of clear water was bubbling from the well. Because the well was dry, there was no drain or anything, and a large area was flooded around it.

Everyone is discussing, saying that this ancient well, even in the rising season, has never produced water, how can it be flooded on this dry day. Moreover, almost from generation to generation, this well has always been a dry well, so everyone is curious when they see it coming out of the water.

I wondered if what the man said had come true so soon.

The dry well is bubbling with water, and this alone cannot be said to be his accurate calculation. What if the underground river is blocked, causing the groundwater to blow out of the well?

I thought so, but in my heart, I had already begun to become curious about that strange man.

Suddenly, someone exclaimed: "Look, that water, why did the water suddenly turn yellow." ”

Sure enough, the originally clear and transparent well water has turned into yellow water and bubbled out. I went up and took the water, and found that it was not yellow muddy water.

Li Cripple didn't know when he came to me, he said with an ugly expression: "Thirteen, if you don't want to die, go back quickly, this dry well comes out of the Yellow Spring, and the evil door is very evil." ”
