After eating, Village Chief Li said to take Li Shiyu and them to visit the village, Peng Ligang knew that this was not the main purpose, but he didn't want to say anything, so he had to go with him. Village Chief Li took the two of them around the ridge twice, Li Shiyu said that he was uncomfortable walking here in a skirt, so Village Chief Li led the C people into the village, but there were no people on the way, and all they saw were children playing at the door.

Village Chief Li led the two of them to the front of a room and said, "Let's deign to live here tonight, the countryside is relatively simple, I will call someone to come and clean it later." This house has been empty for some years, so it needs to be cleaned properly, and if you still need anything, just ask, and if there is nothing in the village, I will ask someone to go outside and buy it back. “

Village Chief Li suddenly became so polite, Li Shiyu and Peng Ligang were really a little uncomfortable, knowing that he had bad intentions, but they didn't dare to say it directly. It's really dumb and can't say that it is bitter to eat Coptis chinensis, so I can only hold it in my heart.

Village Chief Li Kai pushed open the wooden door, and Peng Ligang stood in the room and observed carefully. This house is no different from other adobe bungalows, except that there are some cobwebs on the outside, so that people can tell at a glance that no one has lived in it for a long time. Village Chief Li shouted to them a few more times, beckoned to them and motioned for the two to go inside the house and have a look.

The interior of the house was really shabby, with only a desk and an old-fashioned bed, and the windows were sealed with long wooden strips. Village Chief Li walked to the side of the bed and patted the wooden bed, as if to test whether the old wooden bed was still strong. The wooden bed made a clanging sound, but there was no loose sound, and it seemed that the old bed was still very strong, at least in terms of quality.

"This bed is still very strong, I'll call someone to clean it up later, and then you can see if there is anything you need, and I'll ask someone to bring your luggage over immediately." If you want to take a bath, I'll have someone bring a barrel. "Village Chief Li seems to want to finish everything at once and solve all the problems of Li Shiyu's daily life.

After all the things were finished by Village Chief Li, Peng Ligang and Li Shiyu had nothing to say, so they had to laugh helplessly a few times and said, "Hehe, there is no other need, if you need anything else, please trouble the village chief again." ”

"Alright then, you guys take a look here first, someone will clean it up later." After speaking, Village Chief Li turned around and prepared to go out.

"The village chief walks slowly." Peng Ligang said faintly.

The village chief turned around and walked out of the house, and Peng Ligang watched the village chief leave with a helpless expression. Squatted on the ground and said, "Okay, now that everyone is gone, there is no chance to regret it." I don't know if this is a murderous house, if it is really a murderous house, it will be miserable. “

"Don't be suspicious, isn't this just an ordinary house, it's just a little old, and no one has lived in it for a long time." Li Shiyu didn't like Peng Ligang's picky faults.

As he was talking, an old man and a young woman entered, the older one was about fifty years old, but he was full of white hair, and his body was slightly in his mouth, as if he could not stand upright. Another young woman, about thirty years old, was carrying Peng Ligang's luggage in her hand, and she didn't even breathe after walking so far, but she must have done a lot of farm work, but she didn't look like a local.

Li Shiyu glanced at Peng Ligang and motioned for him to hurry over to help. Peng Ligang walked up to the woman with great reluctance and took Li Xing from her hand with a smile. Li Shiyu stood aside and asked, "It's really troublesome for the two of you, I don't know what to call the two of you?" “

The older woman said, "My surname is Du, and everyone in the village calls me Du's mother." This is my daughter-in-law, looking at your appearance, you should be younger than her, deign to call her Sister Hong. Go out and walk around first, and come back when you're done cleaning, so that you don't end up with ashes. “

Peng Ligang hurriedly smiled and said: "Then Du Ma, Sister Hong, let's go out first, we'll come back after you finish cleaning, let's go and see the scenery in this village, I'll cause you trouble." “

After speaking, Peng Ligang pulled Li Shiyu out of the house, and at some point there was a group of children outside the house, all of whom were about seven or eight years old, but Xiaoqi and Xiaoqi were not among them, and they were all strange children. When the young children saw Peng Ligang and they came out, they immediately scattered and fled, as if they were afraid to see strangers, Peng Ligang was puzzled.

"Are we so terrible that we all run away when they see us." Peng Ligang looked at Li Shiyu and asked.

"No, it's not us, it's you who are terrible, more terrible than wolves." Li Shiyu covered her mouth and said with a smile.

"Yes, I'm a wolf, and I'm a pure domestic pervert." Peng Ligang immediately replied.

Suddenly, there was a child's cry not far away, Peng Ligang and Li Shiyu stopped arguing and walked over together in search of the cry. On the side of the house that turned right at the fork in the road, the group of children just now were all gathered together, and Peng Ligang took a closer look to realize that they had surrounded a tiger-headed little boy in the middle, as if they were interrogating him about something.

Peng Ligang and his wife listened for a while before they realized that they were blaming the little boy for running slow just now, thinking that he was trying to find Peng Ligang and ask them for something. So now a public trial meeting is being held, and preparations are being made to criticize him. I don't know who found Peng Ligang and they were behind him, and suddenly screamed, and a group of children scattered and fled. And the little man who was on trial was still crying, so he didn't hear what his companions were saying, and kept standing in place crying until Peng Ligang came over.

"What's your name, little friend? Can you tell uncle? Peng Ligang squatted down, took out a piece of toilet paper and wiped the tears on his face.

When the little boy saw that the person in front of him was suddenly replaced by Peng Ligang, he immediately stopped crying, and stood there blankly and refused to say anything. Peng Ligang looked at him carefully at this time, the little boy was wearing a long blue and gray T-shirt, which seemed to be worn out by adults, because it was too long, so the little boy only wore this T-shirt, and the wide one was a little unpresentable.

"Kid, can you tell my sister what your name is?" Li Shiyu also walked up to the little boy, touched his face, and asked.

"I come from the rain, and I come with the rain." The boy replied in a loud voice.

"Really good, then can you tell my sister why you ran away when you saw us?" Li Shiyu took the opportunity to ask.

"The people in the village said that you were here to buy children, and that they were going to sell us far away, and my mother told us not to come near you, or you would take us away." Yulai whispered, suddenly becoming scared.

"Don't be afraid of the rain, we're not here to arrest you, my sister is here to see your village chief. Can Yulai tell me what's strange about the house we live in? Although Li Shiyu has always told Peng Ligang not to be so gossipy, when there is a chance to learn about these gossips, women often have a much stronger desire to listen than men.

"I can't say that my mother has confessed, and I can't tell outsiders about the things in the village." Yulai obviously still has his own position, and he will not be so easily swayed by Li Shiyu's beauty.

"If you tell us, I'll give you this candy, and we're not going to tell anyone you said it." Peng Li just took out some uneaten candy from his pocket that he bought in the supermarket yesterday, and put it all in front of Xiaoyulai's eyes.

A person will always have weaknesses, and even a saint can't withstand the temptation to make mistakes, let alone a child who has never been in the world. So Xiao Yulai quickly surrendered under the temptation of candy, and while eating candy, he said: "I heard from the adults in the village that there was a dead person in that room, and it was a woman who hanged herself. Later, when someone in the village saw her at night, she appeared several times, and the village chief decided to seal the house, and no one has lived in it since. “

Peng Ligang squinted at Li Shiyu, meaning, "Look, I'll just say that Village Chief Li has bad intentions, and it's too late to find someone to check out now." Li Shiyu also gave him a look, meaninging, "How did I know it would be like this." ”

Xiao Yulai happily left with the candy, leaving the two with helpless faces. When the two of them were depressed, Sister Hong shouted to them from behind: "The house has been cleaned, you can go in and have a look, if you need anything, come and tell me, I will find someone to buy it for you." ”

Peng Ligang responded, and then pulled the equally grizzled Li Shiyu towards the house. Sister Hong and Mama Du have gone back to their own house, and after their cleaning, the house is indeed much cleaner, and the originally boring walls are also pasted with newspapers and pictorials, but the flowers are much better than before. It's just that there is no tarpaulin on the top of this room, and you can see the roof when you look up, and there is a mahogany beam running through the house, which is written in traditional Chinese characters "May 7th of Renshen year, Zhang Limin system." ”

At some point, a large wooden barrel was brought into the house, and it was also filled with water, which was enough for Peng Ligang and his wife to sit in. There were also seven or eight small kegs next to the barrels, which were also filled with water, and it seemed that they were used for bathing. There was a light bulb hanging from the beam, which seemed to have been put up temporarily, and the switch was the kind of cable that was attached to the vertical beam of the wooden bed.

The beds were also made and mosquito nets had been installed. Peng Li just sat on the bed and tried it, there seemed to be several layers of quilts underneath, it felt very soft, and there was a mat on it, so it didn't feel hot. The windows that were originally sealed with wooden strips have also been opened, but the windows are also very old and need to be supported with wooden sticks.

After looking around, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon, and Li Shiyu was ready to take off her clothes and take a shower. When Li Shiyu went to close the door, Sister Hong came over with the food and said with a smile: "You are also hungry, the village chief asked me to bring food to you to eat, I cooked it myself." You city people are accustomed to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, and occasionally try our home-cooked dishes in the countryside. “

Sister Hong is a very good talker, and she is also very tactful, this is Li Shiyu's impression of Sister Hong. Of course, these words can't be said, Li Shiyu can only think so, or talk to Peng Ligang in the bed. Li Shiyu hurriedly reached out to take the plate, but Sister Hong didn't let her take it, and brought it to the wooden table herself. There were two children walking behind Sister Hong, each of whom moved a stool, Li Shiyu glanced at Peng Ligang and motioned him to help move the chair, Peng Ligang stood up helplessly and took the stool in the hands of the two children.

The two little children seemed to have lost the burden of the stool, and ran away with cheerful steps. Sister Hong put all the food on the table, and said with a smile: "Let's eat first, there is nothing to entertain in the countryside, let's rest early when it gets dark at night, tomorrow there will be an ancestor worship ceremony in the village, there may be no time to take care of the two, please take care of it." “

Peng Ligang smiled, took a stool and sat down at the table, ready to eat. Li Shiyu slapped the back of his hand fiercely, indicating that he was too rude. Li Shiyu asked, "The two children just now are Sister Hong's, how old are they this year?" ”

Sister Hong replied with a smile: "One is six years old, the other is seven years old, and it is not easy to feed them." That one...... You can eat first, I have to go home and cook, and if there is anything to do in the evening, come to me in the room with the red couplet in front of me, I have been at home. ”

Without waiting for Li Shiyu to say that she was going to send her, Sister Hong turned around and went out. Peng Ligang was eating with a bowl and chopsticks, and asked Li Shiyu to sit down while eating. Li Shiyu tilted her head and sat down, as if thinking about something. Peng Ligang took a bite of rice, chewed a few bites and swallowed it, looked at Li Shiyu who was in a daze and asked, "What are you in a daze, hurry up and finish eating, take a bath and sleep after eating." ”

"Don't you think they're all reluctant to come into this room, and even if they do, they want to leave quickly, as if they're afraid of something." Li Shiyu said with his head sideways.

"Can you not be afraid, someone in this house hanged himself, and I am also afraid, who told you to take on any work is not good, you have to come here to do some tourism development. Now, the village chief has made us a ghost hut, and you can watch it at night. Peng Ligang was a little dissatisfied and kept complaining to Li Shiyu.

After the two finished eating, Peng Ligang lay down on the bed satisfied, Li Shiyu closed the door tightly, undressed and prepared to take a bath. Peng Ligang unconsciously lay on the bed and fell asleep, and in a daze, he saw a rope stretched out from the mahogany beam above his head, and the rope was stretching down little by little, and a strand of black-headed hair slowly hung down from the beam. Peng Ligang's heart was full of fear, and he wanted to withdraw but couldn't move.

The rope fell and tied a knot by itself, forming a rope loop, the black hair was getting longer and longer, and a human head stretched out from the beam, Peng Ligang only saw the head of the head, he tried not to imagine the appearance of the human head's face, but his thoughts seemed to be uncontrolled, and his mind kept changing the terrifying picture.

Peng Ligang screamed, sat up on the bed, and looked into the room sweating profusely. Li Shiyu was soaking in the big wooden barrel, looked at Peng Ligang with a puzzled expression, and asked, "What happened, what did you do with such a loud voice all of a sudden?" ”

"Oh, it's fine. I had a nightmare just now, so I'd better take a shower. Peng Ligang got up from the bed, walked to the barrel while undressing, and then jumped into the barrel naked. Peng Ligang shrank all his body into the wooden barrel, and the cold water made Peng Ligang slowly recover from fear, wiped a handful of water droplets on his face and said, "Actually, it's good to take a mandarin duck bath once in a while, right?" “

Li Shiyu's originally puzzled expression suddenly turned into contempt, and she pressed Peng Ligang's head into the water. The two began to frolic in the barrel, and all the gloom in Peng Ligang's heart dissipated. When Li Shiyu was wiping Peng Ligang's back, a loud cry for help came from nowhere, and Peng Ligang looked through the wooden window, and a fiery red light in the distance under the night illuminated the air.
