Chapter 242: Chariots

The empty street was not empty, the grocery store around the corner was already open, and although it was far away, the owner of the grocery store could still be seen eating breakfast in it through the window.

"Go and ask this boss about the female corpse!" My mind moved, the female corpse last night kept shouting to save her, maybe the villagers knew something.

If there is such a female ghost in the village, I believe the villagers should know about it.

When we came to the grocery store, the old man inside looked up at us, and his face suddenly showed a look of surprise.

I greeted him, and the old man responded lightly, as if he didn't bother to pay attention to us.

Then I took out two hundred yuan in cash from Yang Wei and said that I wanted to buy something, and the old man got up from his chair and his attitude changed a lot.

I bought a few bottles of water casually and asked Yang Wei to take them, and then asked if the old man knew if there were any female ghosts in the village.

The old man looked at me deeply: "What do you say?" Something happened last night? ”

I nodded, my face sinking slightly.

The old man asked me, "What happened last night?" ”

I told me about the ghost girl in the well, but I only said that there was a strange sound coming from the well, and when I went over to look, I found a woman with a swollen body climbing up the wall of the well, and I didn't say anything about being pulled into the water behind.

After hearing this, the old man's face suddenly became very ugly: "Fortunately, you covered the well, otherwise something would have happened!" ”

"Uncle, do you know what happened to the woman in the well? Scared the hell out of us last night! I almost ran outside. Also, what's going on with that gong and drum sound at night? Was there a funeral last night? I feigned horror.

The old man glanced at me, then at the others for a while, and said vaguely: "Those are all unclean things, just remember to stay away from the well when you sleep at night, and don't open the door to others easily, sometimes it may not be a person who knocks on the door." ”

I frowned, this old man obviously knew something, but he just wouldn't say it.

I knocked on the side, asked again and again, and asked Yang Wei to take out another 100 yuan before the old man was willing to tell me something.

"A few years ago, there was a woman, I don't know why, it seems that her husband is not good to her, she committed suicide by throwing herself into the river on a stormy night, when the wind and rain were so strong, someone in the village saw it, but they didn't dare to save it, so it passed all night, and the next day they called the police to salvage, but there was nothing after a day. After two days, many people said that the well in their home was actually hit with hair, and even with broken fingers. ”

As he spoke, the old man picked up a low-quality cigarette and smoked it, and swallowed the clouds: "People in our village either drink river water or mountain spring water, and the water in this well is probably connected. After that, no one dared to drink well water for a period of time, and who would dare to drink the water that had died? ”

"This matter is not over, after two days, some people said that at night they will hear movement from the well, like crying, strange and scary, the next day fishing but nothing can be fished, then the well water will be pumped clean, guess what?"

Seeing the old man looking at me, I had to ask cooperatively, "What did you find?" ”

"The well is full of fish, pond fish! The big ones are eight or nine pounds, and the strange thing is that I don't usually find this kind of fish, how can it appear in the well? Come to think of it, most of it is through the undercurrent into the well. The old man continued, "At that time, it was suggested that the fish should be boiled and eaten, and some people did, but when you peel the belly of the fish, you will find that it is full of human flesh!" Fuck the thief, these pond fish actually grew up eating human flesh, and no one dared to eat them at that time. After this incident, the people in the village were much more careful when drinking water, and everyone went up the mountain to fetch spring water. ”

"After this matter is over, the pond in front of the ancestral hall also had an accident, at that time the contractor of the pond was the old man Zhao in our village, he raised grass carp in the pond, raised for more than half a year, pumped a fish, all pond catfish, the largest are about 20 catties! People in the village said that there was an Egyptian pond fish in the pond, and this kind of fish ate everything, and the old man Zhao put the fry in it, and ate it all before it was raised. ”

Old man Zhao was angry at the time, and he spent a lot of effort for most of the year, but the pond was full of this kind of fish, and this guy had to take it to eat, so he opened three fish, and two of the fish had human hair in their bellies. The good guy doesn't believe in evil, and he is probably angry, regardless of the dissuasion of the villagers, he boiled all the fish that night, and the family of three ate it, and his wife and children didn't dare to eat it, so he forced it to eat. ”

"I don't know where to find human flesh to eat, isn't it the same as eating human flesh for him to eat? The next day there was an accident, his son had a high fever, and there were fish scale spots on his body, and the local doctor in the village had no choice but to go to the city for injections, but when he came back, he was gone one night, and two days later her daughter-in-law died inexplicably in the pond, and then he also became crazy, and finally the body was found in the pond. ”

"Many people saw his body at the time, and the body was scarred, not a piece of good meat, it was all deep bite marks." The old man gave me a meaningful look when he said this.

"It's all bitten by pond fish?" I asked as he spoke.

"No, those bite marks are very neat, not like a fish bite! It's like a human bite! He was bitten to death. The old man said in a gloomy voice: "The pond fish in the pond are all made of ghosts!" Otherwise, many fish can see human intestines when they open their stomachs. ”

His words startled Li Xinyue behind him, and his face suddenly turned pale, didn't we kill an Egyptian pond fish just now?

I frowned, I didn't really believe the old man's words, after all, it's too for a ghost to become a pond fish, right?

"Young man, you'd better leave the village, don't go near the ponds, ditches, and ancestral halls, and don't open the doors, especially at night if you hear any movement outside." The old man reminded.

I wanted to ask about anything else, but the old man seemed to be afraid of something, and he didn't say a word about the ancestral hall and the funeral procession, and even if I gave him money, he refused.

"Thanks, we'll leave in two days." I'll be honest.

"Wait, you're in the village today, don't go if anyone asks for dinner." The old man smiled and said, "I see that you are all children, and if you want to eat, you can come to me, just pay." But if someone else invites you, it's best not to eat it. ”

"Why?" Yang Wei couldn't help but ask.

"Cannibalism is short-handed...... See for yourselves. The old man hid in his chair and smiled, squinting his eyes. Anyway, in this village, ninety percent of ghosts are adults, so I, an old man, won't hurt anyone. ”

"Okay, then I'll come to eat at noon." I smiled shyly and led Zhu Yao to another street.

"Brother Feng, the more I listen, the more mysterious it becomes, isn't this village too weird?" Yang Wei said.

"Not weird? Can it be called a ghost village if it's not weird? I asked rhetorically.

"That's too." Yang Wei nodded, "Then what are we going to do now?" ”

"Find someone else first." I walked down the alley in front of me.

It was already daytime, and the classmates were no longer hiding in the house, and soon I found Chen Liang.

The second middle school boy led three or four girls and walked triumphantly in the alley, bragging as he walked. It looks like a traitor who led the imperial army into the village.

"Xiao Fengzi, you're not dead?" Chen Liang walked over and raised his eyebrows.

"God is so little wind......" I said speechlessly.

"Xiao Fengzi, did you encounter anything last night? Let me tell you that we were excited last night, the second floor became the third floor, and there were strange sounds coming down, I listened to it for a while, it was a few ghosts playing mahjong, and one ghost was too bad luck to lose, I ......" Chen Liang began to brag about last night's experience, but seeing that the girls around him kept rolling their eyes, he knew how much water his words had.

Walking with Chen Liang, he began to look for other classmates, but soon found that many classmates were missing, and he couldn't find them after going around the village twice.

I thought to myself, "Maybe it's too late to get inside before dark, maybe a ghost has invaded the house, but ...... Why is Xu Simiao gone? ”

Su Mei, Lin Qingyan, and Shen Danqi all saw it, but Xu Simiao was gone.

But I didn't care.

Soon I saw Lu Qiufeng, but he was discouraged, as if something had happened last night, and there were a lot fewer people around him, only eight or nine people left.

"Yo, isn't this Young Master Lu? Hide-and-seek with rats last night? How did it come to this? Chen Liang went up and said in a weird way.

Lu Qiufeng looked at him coldly, and said gloomily: "What's your business?" Want to fight? ”

"I can't ask for it, come on, let's talk about it. Let's see if it's me Chen's sword fast, or if you're a dick enough. Chen Liang immediately drew his sword and walked over with a smile.

Lu Qiufeng's face darkened, they were indeed attacked by ghosts last night, and they worked hard for most of the night, and now they are in extremely bad condition, how can they fight with this slut who is in good condition at first glance? What's more, I'm still on my side, what if Chen Liang can't beat him, what if I go up to help?

Even if I don't help, what if I pick up the bronze lamp and blow it?

Lu Qiufeng didn't dare to fight, so he could only snort coldly and take people to miss us.

Fu Weiteng stayed behind and walked over to us: "Qin Feng, I think we need to cooperate. ”

"Cooperation? What are you going to work with? Didn't you shout at us before? I said strangely.

Fu Weiteng was embarrassed for a moment, and said with a tired face: "A ghost invaded our room last night, it was a white-clothed male corpse holding a mourning flag, walking as he walked...... Singing. Although it is not red, its voice is almost incomprehensible, and anyone who hears it singing will lose their minds and leave with it. Our boss fought it all night and couldn't kill it. ”

Fu Weiteng showed favor like this, but it made me slightly stunned, thinking, the male corpse who sings? It's a powerful ghost who uses his voice as an attack, can't even Lu Qiufeng handle it? No wonder there are so many fewer of them.

"I just hope that we can cooperate, after all, the previous feuds were all game reasons, to be honest, we shouldn't target each other, only by helping each other, can we resist the ghosts." Fu Weiteng said: "After all, at this time, it's no fun for us to fight in the nest, it's important to live, right?" ”

"I'll think about it." I answered.

"Okay, if we can, I hope we can work together, like work together to kill that singing ghost, our boss didn't kill it last night, maybe he will come back tonight. And you must have met a ghost, right? We can work together to take out that awesome ghost. Fu Weiteng said, "Our boss wants to go to the back mountain to have a look now, and the singing ghost last night seems to have disappeared in the back mountain." ”

I nodded, not directly agreeing, but thinking in my heart: "The ghost who sings? Could it be related to the game Side Five? ”

"Optional game branch five, the stage of the ancestral hall, there is a stage that is open late at night, go to the stage at 12 midnight and watch a paper play."

Each game branch should have at least one ghost, the swollen female corpse we encountered last night should be the ghost of the game branch four, and Lu Qiufeng encountered the ghost of the game branch five, as for Chen Liang, this luck is very good, there was no danger last night, in fact, I didn't encounter a ghost.

"However, Xu Simiao won't have an accident, right? Otherwise, why didn't you see her? What the hell did she encounter? "I frowned, Xu Simiao should be the first person to become a ghost master, but unfortunately he wasn't with us last night, and he didn't know where he went.

"The ghost that appeared last night may still appear at night, let's go to the pond and have a look." At this time, it was broad daylight, and Chen Liang was beside me, which greatly increased my confidence, and ran all the way to the pond opposite the ancestral hall.

This pond is not very large, just twenty or thirty meters diagonally opposite the ancestral hall of the village.

The water in the pond is very muddy, and there is some garbage discarded by the villagers floating on the water, which does not look unusual.

"Could that female ghost live in the pond last night?" The thought popped into my mind.

Unfortunately, there were no fishing nets or rods, so there was no way to verify that there was anything in the pond.

"Diagonally opposite here is the ancestral hall, and the housekeeper said that the ancestral hall has a red force, and I don't know what kind of red power it is." I said to myself, there are also strong and weak red powers, similar to red high heels and ghost heads, they should be regarded as top red powers, and the female corpse I met last night who was soaked in water should not be considered top, and it may even be ...... Red Goalkeeper!

After all, apart from being able to come out of a well, the rotting female corpse doesn't seem to have any other ghost abilities.

Just as we were discussing whether to find a way to salvage the pond, there was a sudden movement in the open space behind us.

When we looked back, we saw six or seven villagers pulling three small carriages to the outside of the ancestral hall, and the villagers led by them arrived in front of the ancestral hall and opened the heavy wooden door.

"What's the situation? What are these people going to do? I frowned and walked over to the side.

It soon became clear that the men were pulling idols of the gods, who were sitting in the chariots and wearing a yellow silk umbrella.

The three statues are all different, and in my opinion, I can't tell what god they are.

The gate was slowly pushed open, revealing the environment inside the ancestral hall, with four pillars on each side and a large incense burner in the center.
