Chapter 161: Yin Soldiers Borrow the Way
Because of such an incident, when we talked in the evening, the young headmaster told the truth.
He said that there are always things happening in this village, and the frequency of this thing is very high.
Later, the old people also concluded that every time the moon is about to be in the middle of the month, the moon in the sky will gradually become round, and this is the day when the yin soldiers are infested.
And so on until two days after the middle of the month, and there will be no more strange things happening outside. Then I was a little curious, so I asked.
"What would have happened if I had turned back last night?"
The headmaster shook his head lightly and said, "According to the old people, anyone who dares to turn back will be taken away as long as you see their faces. ”
"Take it away?"
"That's right, there is a fool named Huang Er in this village, who secretly ran out a few nights ago while his family was sleeping."
"And then?"
"Although this Huang Er is a fool, he is the life of the old yellow head. Root. Son, when he woke up the next day, people roamed the mountains looking for him. Later, I saw a shoe that Huang Er had dropped at the entrance of the village, and then I knew that he had been arrested. ”
"Then you never saw him again?"
The headmaster nodded slightly, and continued, "Alas, there is a mountain stream in the back mountain, and the older generation said that these Yin soldiers all set out from the mountain stream, and they will stay here after passing through this village. But as long as you don't open the door and go out, it's fine, and after so many years, the people in the village have long been used to it. ”
We talked like this until late at night, when I fell asleep just as it was about to dawn. But just when I had just fallen asleep and felt that I had not much to do, I heard a noise of children coming from the courtyard outside.
I opened my eyes slightly, it was already dawn outside, my head hurt, but the noise outside made it impossible for me to sleep peacefully. So I simply got up from the kang, cleaned up my face briefly, and then pushed the door out.
At this time, there were at least twenty children standing in the courtyard, all of whom were holding small flags made of straw with the words "Welcome Teacher" crookedly written on them.
The young headmaster stood among the children, helping them to stand in formation, and when he saw me coming out, he smiled at me and said, "What's wrong?" ”
I shook my head with a wry smile, the children were wearing very simple clothes, and many of them had large and small patches on their cuffs and knees. Most of the shoes worn by the children are homemade, but there are also some children's shoes that have long been obsolete on the market.
The faces of those children wearing children's shoes were filled with a hint of excitement, obviously in their hearts, this dress should only be worn during the New Year's Festival.
I stood at the doordoor for a long time, and when I saw the sincerity in the eyes of these children, I felt a little entangled in my heart. To be honest, I really don't want to let Siya and them stay, but I am a little shaken in the face of these simple eyes.
There is nothing wrong with these children, they have the right to an education.
I've been standing in the doorway for a long time, but there's no movement in the armroom. I think about it, these city kids have never gotten up early in their leisure time, and they wouldn't have gotten up so early since they were so frightened last night.
So I turned to the headmaster and said, "You've been waiting here for a long time, haven't you?" ”
The headmaster nodded slightly awkwardly.
"Well, I'll go in and have a look."
With that, I turned and walked to the door of the two of them, and reached out and knocked on the door.
There was no response from inside, so I tried knocking on the door again. But this time I knocked on the door a little harder, and the door squeaked open.
And the moment the door was opened, a bloody breath suddenly greeted him. I felt a thump in my heart, and a sense of foreboding crept over me.
I opened the door inside, and everything in the room was in full view. As far as the eye could see, there was a mess, and I saw that the quilt on the bed was scattered, and the pillows on the kang head had all fallen to the ground.
"What about people?"
The headmaster, who was standing outside, suddenly heard my shout, so he went straight in, and he was stunned when he looked at everything in the room.
"I was fine last night, why ...... today?"
I glanced back at the children who were looking forward to the house at this time, and whispered, "You go out first to calm the children's emotions, and send the children home first." ”
The headmaster nodded, and turned to go out.
I walked to the kang and touched the wrinkled sheets, and found that the sheets were already cold, indicating that the two of them must have been dragged away in the middle of the night. And looking at the mess in this house, it means that the two of them also struggled when they were taken away, but how can I feel nothing when I live in the arm house?
Could it be that the Yin soldiers last night took the two people away by taking advantage of the way? But it shouldn't be, didn't the principal say it, as long as you don't go out, it doesn't matter, how could the two of them be taken away by the Yin soldiers?
I watched as their clothes and shoes disappeared, indicating that they should have dressed and left before leaving. I tried to remember the details of what happened last night, it was Siya who came out to wake up at night, and when I helped him get up, he was wearing pajamas, and the goose-yellow pajamas were gone.
Just as my mind was full of doubts, the headmaster ran in from outside, out of breath.
"The children have been dismissed by me, let's go to the mountains to find them, maybe we can find them."
"On the mountain? How do you know in the mountains? ”
The headmaster was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Hey, that fool's clothes were found on the mountain, and maybe we can find some clues on the mountain." ”
I sighed heavily and slammed the kang with my hand, only to hear a "bang" along the wooden board on the kang, which sounded very dull.
"Headmaster, what are you doing when you go out with a bag?"
He shook his head slightly embarrassed and said, "There's some dry food in this bag...... I'm afraid we're going to be stuck in the mountains for a long time. ”
After following the principal, I was going to drive up the mountain, but the principal said that the mountain road was rough and difficult to drive, so we had to walk up the mountain. By this time it was past breakfast time, so the people of the village went out to prepare for the farm work.
When they saw my completely unfamiliar face, they liked to stare at me. It didn't matter if these two people stared at me, I felt my scalp tingle as soon as I looked at them.
But fortunately, we soon walked out of the village and went up the mountain, and just as we were about to leave the village, we drove to the entrance of the village and a house hung white.
