Chapter 3: The Old Man Who Died Fiercely
Sleeping on a bare board, not to mention the quilt, not even the sheets, I can't fall asleep after turning over and over, I finally fell asleep after tossing in the middle of the night, probably because I was too tired to toss yesterday, I still slept until I woke up naturally, and I took out the mobile phone next to the pillow to see.
It's already eleven o'clock!
I suddenly came to my senses, and I saw the situation around me clearly, and I was sure that what happened to me yesterday was true.
first was rejected for an interview, then inexplicably followed a beautiful woman to her company for an interview, and then, drove out of L City, and finally, came to this place.
Far North funeral dragon.
Very good, I remember it very well and knew that I had been tricked into being a driver.
Hungry...... Really, I haven't eaten for a day, you try.
I moved the suitcase and the toiletries inside, and went to the yard with a hula open door, there was no key, and I didn't care, just close it.
This courtyard is really empty, quiet, the layout of the courtyard, there are quite a lot of rooms, that is, the doors are all closed, all wooden, the color looks black and old, I don't know how long it is, it seems that this is an ancient courtyard......
There was a lot of moss on the ground, and there were coffins on the pillars and corridors, and there were also half-finished products that had not been made, and a few wooden planks were placed on the shelves.
To be honest, I see and accept it now, aren't these just observations, could it be that there will be something in it? But having said that, I'm far more afraid of zombies than I am of ghosts, so I don't want to see anything jump out of that coffin.
I took the things for washing, I wanted to find a place to wash, I looked around and didn't see the water pipe, I only looked at this relatively open yard, there is a square area inside, there is a big water tank in the middle, there seems to be a faucet next to it, very low and very low, I almost didn't see it, their yard is really ancient, even the washing place is so remote, I stepped into it in a few steps.
I wanted to turn on the faucet, but it was rusty and I couldn't unscrew it, and it felt like no one had used it for a long time.
Could it be that the previous user screwed it too tightly, I simply put the mouthwash cup on the ground, bit the toothbrush, and slowly twisted the faucet.
Just as I was twisting the faucet, suddenly, a pair of red embroidered shoes appeared in my sight, which startled me.
I blinked, and the shoes were gone again.
What the heck...... I put away my thoughts and continued to dry, this faucet just won't wrive.
After squatting for a long time, and exerting my strength again, I felt that my head was a little hypoxic, and I stood up suddenly, and suddenly felt that the world was spinning, and at that moment, I saw the water tank in front of me, and behind the water tank, there was a little girl wearing a red cotton jacket!
She was facing me, but she didn't see her features, and her waist-length hair was tightly obscured.
Just when I was stunned, she was actually turning her head!
I don't want to see her turn her head, and I don't imagine it would be a lovely face!
I wanted to turn my head, but my feet were like being tied to the ground, and I couldn't move, I could only watch, and my heart was about to rise to my throat.
At this moment, a crisp bell sounded clearly in my ears.
I looked for a sound, turned my head to look over, and my body suddenly moved, causing me to lose my balance, and I fell to the ground with a clatter.
"Uncle Liu! Ghosts! ”
I called Uncle Liu and was pointing at the girl, but Uncle Liu looked indifferent.
Why Uncle Liu was indifferent, I squinted my eyes and looked over, there was nothing, there was no little girl, there was only a water tank there.
I patted my ass and stood up, secretly saying evil.
"What the hell, where the hell did you come from, what did you see?" Uncle Liu's reproachful voice came.
"No, I'm dazzled, where did the ghost come from in broad daylight." I picked up the mouthwash cup, "Uncle Liu, tell me where the washing place is, I didn't go to the toilet this night, I'm going to suffocate, you ······"
Uncle Liu glanced at me and put the bell back, this Uncle Liu is probably not just a doorkeeper, this look is a master, I walked towards Uncle Liu.
"I told you last night," Uncle Liu ignored me, turned around, and said sternly, "This yard, don't go inside if you have nothing to do, especially this corner, are you blind or stupid, sticking to the talisman, don't run around, I don't know how to die." ”
I shuddered at this, picked up my mouthwash cup and left the yard.
Standing on the side, I realized that something was wrong in that corner, there was a faucet, and it was clear that there was no water, but there was the most moss around, and the water tank was ......
No, there's still a black box in the tank! I suddenly felt a chill in my vest.
"One more warning, don't step into this square area, if something happens, no one will save you." Uncle Liu pinned the bell to his waist and walked away again and again.
I can also hear Uncle Liu's nagging, "It's really unlucky, what to do when you recruit such an unclean person back!" ”
I? I know the rules here.
Spell? I leaned over and looked at the square area enclosed by these four small cylinders, and if I looked closely, this one was really a little higher than other places, and there were about fifty centimeters high pillars around it, a total of four, and it seemed that there were really talismans on it, but it was facing the courtyard, and I couldn't see it without tilting my head.
Standing in the hallway, I looked at the inside of the small water tank that seemed to have yellow and red charms on the inside......
This can't really be the hell, thinking of the little girl just now, I don't want to be alone in this hellish place for a moment, I just feel cold behind my back.
I searched for a long time, but I still found a row of washing counters in the toilet, this thatched house and bathroom are together, the space is very large, and there is a large floor-to-ceiling mirror, I don't know what era this yard was rebuilt, it is still so backward.
After that, I left the store and went out to order a large table of food, and finally got rid of my hunger.
I have to figure this store out, otherwise I don't feel comfortable living here, it's really not okay I'd better leave early, I don't think I'm a person who can't find a job?
It's super unsubstantial, I'm very prodigal, and I'm skinny.
Just then, my phone rang, did you call yesterday?
"Hey......" I just asked.
"Bai Sheng, where have you been, come back quickly, you are alive, drive." The phone hung up very directly, and the voice was Sister Rosie.
Alas, they were really reassuring of me, a novice driver.
So, I drove, and in addition to the third brother Zhao I saw yesterday, there was someone in the car I didn't know.
They moved a lot of things into the car, but Rosie didn't go, she said that she only stayed at the store and didn't run tasks.
At least halfway through the excitement, I slowly climbed into the car, unmotivated and ready.
I looked at the destination, and it was a strange and far away place.
"Third brother, this is the new sixth brother?" In the back seat, a big man who looked a little smaller than the third brother spoke.
"Yes, but I don't know if it's the sixth child, the boss hasn't seen him yet." The third brother patted my seat, "However, I think it's okay to be a driver." ”
"This is the fourth cow Da Zhuang, you can call him the fourth brother, come to Da Zhuang, he is Bai Sheng." The third brother introduced me to this fourth brother who had never met before, who was as his name suggested, black and strong.
"Hello fourth brother, I'm a new driver, Bai Sheng." This is a simple introduction.
In the next second, in order to make way for the truck at the turn, the steering wheel slammed into a big circle and returned to the right, turning the third brother and the other fourth brother upside down.
"Haha, look at this steady operation, hahaha." The third brother is an optimistic person.
I don't know whether to be grateful or not, thank you for always appreciating me.
The mountain road is rugged, I am as stable as an old dog on the outside, and I am panicked in the heart......
I don't feel very sick in my stomach, I was too full at noon, and I deserved it.
Finally arrived at the destination, it was almost dark, why was it so far away, this funeral service was so tiring, no matter how remote the mountains had to go?
"Bai Sheng, don't be stunned, help move things." The third brother saw me sitting in the car and was a little speechless.
"Oh good." I saw several villagers outside, thinking that they were here to help, so they didn't move, but I didn't expect that the villagers just watched!
The villager who really leads the way.
It doesn't feel like anything, it's just a couple of big boxes, I don't know what they contain, it's quite heavy.
I carried a basket with my third brother.
The fourth brother took a basket himself, and asked the villagers to carry the rest.
"Masters, come on, the old man of this house is murderous, it's scary, you have to do it well, don't let these come out and harm people." An elderly villager grimaced and pointed to the place where the tent was set up.
"Don't worry, old man, we are measured." The third brother comforted the old man.
I listened silently, and I didn't feel that I understood, and it had nothing to do with me.
"Why the hell are you dying," on the side of the road, there are still people discussing, even if people die, there will still be many people interested in you, how you died, why you died, and even where you went after death, I'm afraid there are still people gossiping.
"Didn't you hang yourself on the pigsty, but it's fierce, the old sows at the head of the pen are all murderous, and the newborn piglets are all dead, if you don't ask the Taoist priest to make trouble for a few days."
"You said he was a good person, why can't he think of it."
"I don't know, I heard that I cried all night, and then when I got up in the morning, I saw that I was hanged."
"Unlucky, unlucky......"
The more I listened, the more frightened I became.
"Bai Sheng, you can go with me to set things up later, and then you don't have to do anything, just watch from the side, the boss is also there." The third brother instructed me, "The boss has a bit of a strange temper, be careful when you speak." ”
"yes, okay." What kind of old man is this boss, is he so afraid of even this steady third brother, I have already begun to imagine the appearance of an old Taoist priest.
Wait until we carry the boxes to the dam of the mourning hall.
The coffin was pitch black, with white cloth hanging everywhere, and a pot of burning yellow paper was placed at the head of the coffin.
The strange smell spread, and I felt a little sick at the smell.
Seeing such a scene in front of me, I was panicked in my heart, this person is dead, the problem is that he is still making trouble like this when he is dead, calling some Taoist priests to beat gongs and drums, which is sad.
"Hey, Boss Wu, the thing has arrived." The third brother moved the box to the coffin and put it down, I was afraid of this black thing, I just felt very unlucky, but I still reluctantly helped the third brother move the things over.
Then, I also saw other people in the Far North, and if you rank them according to age, the second, third, fourth, and fifth eldest are all here.
The only thing that surprised me was that the person who was called Boss Wu by the third brother was very young, and it also gave me a feeling that the more I looked at it, the more familiar it became.
Have you seen it before?
Boss Wu was writing something next to the coffin, and I was still thinking about how to tell him, and I didn't know what to say.
At this moment, my stomach hurt, I frowned, it was broken, this is going to be the rhythm of the stomach.
It happened suddenly, and I didn't have time to talk to the people who were busy, so I hurried to find the toilet......
