The doubts in my mind are getting bigger and bigger, but ...... But I didn't dare to go in.

But...... I don't want to be left in the dark because it's not the real world...... Forget it, I gritted my teeth and walked in-

But after I came in, I regretted it a little, so I could only walk forward cautiously step by step in order not to make a sound, but ...... It's so slippery underfoot, like wet moss with fresh dew, and it's hard to stand underfoot!

I had to keep my balance on my tracks, but ...... But I can faintly hear the voice inside!

But what makes me strange is ...... I didn't hear anything but the woman's voice! What the hell is going on!?

It was as if she was talking to herself all the time, and no one answered her.

Remembering the woman's performance yesterday...... I can't help but have one word in my head – schizophrenia.

"Hmph, if you don't want to die...... Better listen to me. ”

"I don't dare...... If someone finds out......"

"Shut up! How could I be discovered!? Are you questioning me!? ”

"I'm not! I was just...... I'm afraid ......"

"Useless stuff!"

……

Listening to the woman's schizophrenic speech, I immediately lost interest, and after listening for a while, I could only withdraw from it in a daze.

As I returned to the village along the same path, I realized that it was getting darker and darker.

I don't know what time it is, but since I've been here, I have barely had access to any electronic devices, except for a wall clock at home......

"Ahh

Just as I was about to 'go home', I suddenly heard a terrible scream behind me!

The goosebumps all over my body rose in an instant, and I jerked back to see ...... Not far behind him, the door of a family was open...... The house was as bright as day!

The voice just now seemed to come from there, and the moment after the scream...... Lots of people next to the house...... They all opened the door to see what was going on......

It's probably the most people I've ever seen, but now I don't have the heart to think about these things, and I watch as many people walk towards the house......

I was also curious to follow everyone inside......

The room was so small that I could only squeeze into the doorway and couldn't see what was going on inside......

All you can hear is the loud howl of a woman and the hateful voice of a man!

"Who is it...... Who killed my son! Who is it!? "The woman's voice grew louder and louder, and I just felt like my eardrums were bursting......

Her son is dead!? I stood on tiptoe and looked inside, then ...... I vaguely saw a young man lying on the bed.

The people around are also talking about it, and various versions of the story are ...... It made my head big in an instant.

"That...... What's going on......" I casually asked a man next to me.

But after seeing him look at me, he said, "You don't know? Isn't this the son of the old Wang family? I said before that I wanted the title of the gold list to finally be able to get out of the village, but what was the result? Retribution, right!? ”

After he finished speaking, he pouted at the family inside, like that...... As if he was very dissatisfied with them.

But what's going on in this village? Why did you say a word as if you had been retributed......

I always feel ...... This scene is familiar, yes, it has appeared in my memory......

The people around him were still whispering something, but they didn't shy away from it at all, as if they were ...... It's just a matter of time before it's supposed to happen.

Especially when I saw the unhesitating look of disdain on the faces of the middle-aged men around me, I knew ...... I really can't understand it at all.

I don't believe in predestination, if you don't try something...... The result will never be known.

It's like...... They're the same, why is it so hard to get out of the village? Why spend your whole life here?

Now thinking back to what Yan Yun said to me yesterday, I suddenly understood what she meant.

Want to take me out...... I guess it's the same as what they mean, right? Go out of this impersonal place and never come back.

"How can you do this!? What did my son do wrong!? The woman cried out in a heart-rending voice, her whole face contorted with tears.

I looked at her quietly, and my heart was mixed.

"Humph! It's all your own fault! Who made him want to get out with shame!? Forgot about yourself!? Several villagers said without hesitation.

"...... Get out of here, y'all! The woman shouted, and came with a broom, and drove us out.

The cold wind outside suddenly blew me a spirit, watching everyone gossip while walking back in pairs, I ...... Suddenly, I felt very powerless.

Even if it's not true? But that feeling of weakness is really empathetic......

Sometimes you can't do anything even if you try your best...... It was a terrible feeling.

"You're not going home yet?" At this moment, a villager suddenly walked up to him, looking very strange and I had never seen before.

But he patted me on the shoulder, "It's good to get used to it, the few people who came out of the village died worse than him before, so I don't even dare to mention it now, in case it ...... one day."

He sighed helplessly, "What if there was really retribution that day...... Hey, we're probably destined for this. ”

I don't know who he is and why he said so much to me, but ......

"What is the curse of the village? Can't let us out? I looked at him fixedly and stopped.

But the middle-aged man immediately covered my mouth!

"Shh......h Do you want to die? If he hears it...... "He covered my mouth so hard that I almost couldn't breathe!"

Quickly breaking free of his hand, I took a few breaths of fresh air before I felt like I was not panicking.

"Sorry...... I was pushing too hard just now, but do you know how important it is? The public said—"

"Why can't you say!? Do you want to see—"

"Shut up!" He scolded me so hard that I was a little stunned......

Looking at his face that suddenly became serious, I suddenly felt ...... The man seemed to know something.

Sure enough, he glanced around, and then leaned into my ear and said something -

"I'll take you somewhere."

Although I don't know who he really is, ...... Now I believe in that man for some reason, he really seems to know something.

A few...... A secret that even Yan Yun may not know.

I followed him around and around to a remote place, and I found out...... It's as if I've never seen it before.

I also walked around the village two days ago, but I have never seen this little house.

Look...... Just like the ancestral hall, the decoration outside that I don't know how long has been covered with dust has long been dusty, and it seems that no one has been here for a long time.

"This is ......," I hesitated to glance at the man next to me.

Then I saw him silently step forward, and I don't know what switch was moved, and the door of the house suddenly opened—

I subconsciously took a step back, only to see that it was pitch black, and the smell of heavy dust came to my face.

"Come in." He beckoned to me, and I followed him in, half-convinced.

But what strikes me as strange is ...... It looks like a deserted house, but the outside is completely different from the inside, as if everything is new.

It is neatly and decently furnished...... It was a perfect contrast to the outside.

There is a table in the center, directly above it...... It's a portrait.

"This is my grandfather, who used to be the head of this village." As if to see my gaze, he explained slowly.

I looked at the portrait in amazement...... It does look a bit like the man next to me.

"Since then...... I wanted everyone to go out, but ...... In the end, it still didn't work out, so it ended up in a tragedy, like ...... "He didn't continue, but I can imagine it."

Even that person died so miserably, so his grandfather ......

"See that spirit card on that table? It was left by the grandfather, it is said to ...... Only by placing it here can the village be intimidated, otherwise the ghosts of the village will come out to make trouble. He sighed helplessly.

I suddenly felt a little strange...... When will this spirit card still be able to deter ghosts!? This is the first time I've heard of ......

"That...... Why are you showing me these things? I looked at him suspiciously, as if he wanted to tell me these things, as if ......

"You're very similar to me when I was younger, so dismissive, but...... At this age, I'm still resigned to my fate, maybe...... That's how life should be in our village......" he said, looking at the old photo above.

I followed his gaze...... The old man was so energetic that he couldn't tell that he had ...... What has been experienced.

"This village is said to have been cursed before, and it is forbidden to go out forever, and there will be a man in the village who has been sent by that person...... It's just to sanction those people......" he explained slowly.

I was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously turned my head to look-

What he meant...... Is there someone specifically to help sanction those who want to get out?

"I don't know if you've seen it at the end of the mountain, that's our boundary, just go out there...... Someone will come to sanction it, and I've seen with my own eyes where someone died. ”

"Who did this!?" I can even hear the pounding sound in my chest!

But he shook his head.

"No one knows who did it, because ...... He hid among us, and at the right time...... "He seemed to be unable to speak, and sat down on the ground in a decadent manner.

But...... Now why would he want to tell me these things? Could he ......

If I'm not mistaken, he wasn't the village chief, who looked old, and I had seen him once from afar.

"What do you want to tell me? Bring me here? I took a deep breath to calm my mind and asked slowly.

"Huh...... You're really smart. He slowly raised his head, and there was a glint in his eyes that I couldn't understand.

A bad premonition slowly arose in my heart that he wouldn't want me to ......

"If it's you...... Maybe you'll know who that person is......" he said slowly, "if you will......"

Does he know something? I was secretly shocked in my heart, but I didn't show it on my face, but ......

It was as if he knew my secrets, leaving me with nowhere to run and no choice.

"Why do you think I'll say yes? I'm still afraid of death. I looked at him coldly, and I was secretly looking at this man in my heart.

He is not as cowardly as he seems, but he is ...... It looks a little strange.

"Hehe, because ...... I think you're just as disobedient as I am, right? That kind of strength that doesn't admit defeat...... It's like when I was younger......" His mind seemed to wander away.

I just looked him in the eye...... I wanted to see something from him, but other than that look I didn't understand...... I couldn't see through anything.
