I saw that the mother-in-law of the cemetery and the crystal coffin suddenly began to slowly become smaller, and finally it turned into a model that was only the size of a palm, but this model was too realistic, except for being a little smaller, there was no difference from the real thing.

What's even more amazing is that the smaller crystal coffin suddenly flew up automatically, and in everyone's stunned eyes, it slowly flew towards the cellar on the east side of the courtyard, and soon disappeared.

In the process of disappearing, an old woman's voice sounded strangely: "Village Chief, please help me carry up a few boxes from the cellar on the east side of the courtyard, open the seal, and put the contents in the courtyard in order." Remember, you must leave my house before dark. ”

Hearing this, which was like the last words of the mother-in-law of the cemetery, some timid villagers were so frightened that they ran out of the courtyard, but the village chief had seen the world after all, and did not panic, but came to the cellar to take a closer look.

After a while, under the command of the village chief, several strong villagers also came to the cellar on the east side of the courtyard and helped the village chief carry a dozen large boxes in the cellar to the middle of the courtyard.

After opening all the boxes, when everyone saw the contents clearly, they all looked at each other for a while, not knowing what to say.

Because these dozen or so large boxes were actually full of simulated mini clay sculptures, when the villagers carefully took out the contents of the boxes one by one and placed them in the yard, they had to admire the craftsmanship of the mother-in-law in the cemetery.

Although these lifelike clay sculptures are not large, the small ones are smaller than the little thumbs, and the big ones are the size of the palms, and they are completely made according to the funeral rites in the countryside.

In addition to the crystal coffin containing the remains of the mother-in-law of the cemetery that everyone has seen before, there are also the artificial clay sculptures of all the villagers in the village, after taking a closer look, I was surprised to find that the simulated clay sculptures of the village chief, the cemetery mother-in-law, grandma, Grandpa Niu and the cow baby all appeared in the box, and even the baby in the arms has the corresponding clay sculptures, but I did not find my clay sculptures.

In the yard, I also saw some children in the village who were much younger than me and Niu Wa, and when they saw the clay sculptures on the ground, they were curious to pick them up and play, but they were stopped by the adults, after all, these things were too weird, and they were worried that bad things would happen to the children.

When I asked my grandmother why I didn't have my clay sculptures, my grandmother said something very inexplicable to me: "Ling'er, in fact, you shouldn't have come to this funeral, so of course there is no you." It's just that the cemetery mother-in-law didn't know why she changed her mind again, but she still let you come, I think there should be a reason for her, don't ask, you will naturally know when you should know. ”

Because the scene was noisy and the ground was full of clay sculptures, the other villagers did not find that there were no clay sculptures of mine, only me, my grandmother and Grandpa Niu saw them. I can understand without my clay sculptures, but I really can't figure out what it means to use clay sculptures for funerals.

After Grandma said those strange words to me, I saw Grandpa Niu gently pat Grandma on the shoulder, although he didn't say anything, but from Grandpa Niu's eyes, I still saw a trace of determination, as if he had made some kind of decision.

As for Niu Wa, because of her own big personality and not careful heart, she didn't find that there were no clay sculptures from me.

I simply pretended not to know, and I didn't remind Niu Wa about it, lest he be shocked, but instead attract the attention of the whole village, which will only make Grandma more worried.

Because there are too many clay sculptures and the yard is too small, most of the villagers who came to visit were invited out by the village chief, leaving only the cemetery mother-in-law, my grandmother, Grandpa Niu, and a few serious villagers in the yard to help place the clay sculptures, and I was the first person in the village to be admitted to university, so I naturally stayed to help.

In addition to the villagers, there is also a stage in these exquisite clay sculptures, and the actors who play and sing on the stage are also made realistically and vividly, when we spent nearly eight hours in the courtyard according to the funeral etiquette, everyone was stunned!

If it weren't for the fact that everyone knew that these were all clay sculptures, at first glance, they would have thought that they were standing on the top of the hill overlooking the funeral that was being held in the village.

If you stare at these clay sculptures for a long time, you will have the illusion that everyone is moving, and you can even hear the crying of the villagers, as well as the sound of firecrackers and suona.

If it weren't for the village chief's sudden recollection, the mother-in-law of the cemetery had told the villagers to leave the yard as soon as possible before dark after putting the things in the cellar in order, and they would not know how long they would have to stand in the yard to admire.

It was already more than six o'clock in the afternoon, and it was already very dark, if you didn't leave, it would be dark, and at the urging of the village chief, all the villagers reluctantly left the courtyard and went home step by step.

Before my grandma and I got home, it was inexplicably dark. It was surprisingly dark that night, and I couldn't see my fingers, and there was not a trace of moonlight in the sky.

For the first time in my memory, this was the first time in the village's history that it had happened.

Fortunately, my grandmother always had a flashlight in her bag, and my grandmother and I were able to open the yard door and enter the house.

When I got home, my grandmother made a lot of my favorite food for the first time, and told me to eat as much as I could, saying that I wouldn't run out of energy in the middle of the night.

I was also surprised to ask my grandmother, I fell asleep in the middle of the night, do I still need physical strength? Grandma told me with a heavy face that she would go and sleep well after eating, and that she would wake me up in the middle of the night and let me go out with her.

After eating, while my grandmother was washing the dishes, I sneaked out of the yard with a flashlight and walked around, it was still surprisingly dark outside, and it was a little lively at first, with many children playing outside with candles or lanterns.

But it didn't take long for me to notice a very strange thing, all the children who were playing seemed to suddenly feel drowsy early, and they all went home listlessly and obediently went to bed, and it stands to reason that most of the children usually go to bed late in the streets and alleys of the village.

Soon I was left alone on the road, I looked around, there was no figure in sight, I tried to turn off the flashlight, only to find that no matter how close I put my hand to my eyes, I couldn't see my palm.

From time to time, there is a particularly cold wind blowing around, making a "whining" sound like a ghost, I always feel that there is a shadow shaking in front of my eyes, and even I feel that someone is staring at me, I can't help but shiver, suddenly I feel cautious and panicked, and quickly turned on the flashlight and ran home.

On the way home, I faintly heard the villagers' houses on both sides of the road, and from time to time there were whispers of chattering, as if such a strange night was incredible.

Everyone guessed that it might have something to do with the recently deceased mother-in-law, after all, she had predicted that the village would disappear the day after her death, so everyone felt that the end of the village was really coming.

I also saw some villagers climbing up the wall of their yard with flashlights, and even on the rooftop, keeping a close eye on the direction of the old lady's house.

I ran and ran, and I felt more and more sleepy inexplicably, so I quickened my pace back to my yard, and when I slipped into the yard, I saw my grandmother's figure still busy in the kitchen, so I hurried back to my room quietly, took off my clothes, and went to sleep.

It didn't seem to take long for me to wake up, but I didn't feel sleepy at all, so I just got up, the room was still dark, I took the flashlight, and tiptoed out of my room, and when I passed by the door of my grandmother's room, I listened intently.

Grandma's snoring was very even, and I must have slept soundly, so I opened the door of the living room and came to the yard with confidence.

At this time, there is already a bright moon in the night sky, although it is not very bright, but at least you can see the general situation in front of you, even if you don't use a flashlight, there is no problem.

I brought a ladder from the firewood house, with a flashlight in my mouth, and carefully climbed the roof of my house, and as soon as I climbed to the top, I looked around and saw that some of the neighbors' houses around me were also shining like flashlights, and apparently some villagers were also on the roof like me.

I hurriedly turned off the flashlight, so as not to be seen by the villagers, and told my grandmother tomorrow that I would definitely be scolded again, after all, in the middle of the night, I climbed to the roof, and it was strange that my grandmother was not worried.

After that, I tried to distinguish the old lady's house from the roof of the roof from memory, and after looking at it for less than a minute, I finally settled on the direction.

At this moment, I noticed that there were countless small yellow dots of light in that direction.

I looked in the direction of the glow, and suddenly, I was shocked that it was actually the courtyard of the old lady's house!

In the unmanned courtyard, where there were only a pile of clay sculptures and models of the funeral procession, there was a lot of light like a flashlight inexplicably.

Could it be that the villagers went to the courtyard of the old lady's house? However, I remember that when I left the courtyard in the afternoon, the village chief repeatedly emphasized that no one should approach the courtyard of the old lady's house without permission tonight, otherwise he would bear the consequences!

So where did the light come from? It's really weird!

I held my breath and watched quietly, and as the lights in the courtyard grew brighter and brighter, I had the illusion that there were no dead people at all, but that it was as festive and lively as if it were having a wedding or a birthday party.

However, I soon realized that something was wrong, for I saw that the little dots of light in the yard were not like the light of a flashlight, but more like the eyes of a cat at night.

One opens and one closes, densely packed.

Every time I close it and open it again, the color changes a little bit, from yellow at first, to green, and now to red again.

Then, these little red bright spots gradually flew up from the yard and flew around, and some flew towards the yard where my house was, and as these bright spots got closer and bigger.

It didn't take long for me to understand why it didn't feel right, because the bright spots were flying forward in pairs, like a pair of blood-red eyes flying out of thin air.

I inexplicably felt a tingling in my scalp and a chill in my back, and subconsciously looked back at the roof of my neighbor's house.

At this sight, I was completely frightened, and I saw that the small spots of light on the roof of my neighbor's house, which I had always thought were flashlights, also turned red.

Not only did it turn red, but while I wasn't looking, some of them were already flying towards me, and even a couple was less than five meters away from me!

At this moment, I finally saw clearly, the red light was clearly a pair of blood-red glowing eyeballs.
