Chapter 2: The Curse of the Unknown

Next to the wooden stake, De Ye's body was thin, like a bamboo pole, swaying, his face was thin, and his two cloudy eyes were bleeding, especially on his forehead, where a blue line spread.

De Ye seemed to be seriously injured and had difficulty moving, so he waved at me.

Seeing him like this, I panicked, walked over and trembled: "Master De, what's the matter?" ”

"Alas, Jiang Sheng, it seems that the master is going to be finished." De Ye sighed, this is the first time he has called me by my name, and he used to always tease Xiaoshengzi.

To tell the truth, I have been in contact with this old man for more than ten years, and if it weren't for the recent death, the village would have accepted these old eunuchs a long time ago.

Master De is also a good person, I stabilized my mind and immediately stepped forward to support him.

This place is only a hundred meters away from the broken temple, why did Master De come out, I can't figure it out, but his old man seems to have something on his mind, staring at the entrance of the village, his eyes are worried, and at the same time holding the waist card in his hand, muttering to himself: "It's coming, it's going to come after all." ”

I'm confused, is there something wrong with the old guy's brain?

"Master De, why don't I help you go back first?" I asked.

"No, Jiang Sheng, after the child, if the master is crazy, remember, come up to the door of the master's head." Deye's face was solemn, and I was startled: "What, you're really crazy!" ”

Deye didn't say a word, just stared at the village, and finally insisted on walking to the stone pier next to him and sitting, and then closed his eyes.

At night, the cold wind gusts, when it is a cold winter, the cold night wind blows the people's bodies trembling, at this time, the people in the village are lying on the kang holding their daughter-in-law and children, although I complained, but I didn't say anything, standing aside and guarding.

Time passed quickly, and the time arrived in a blink of an eye, and Deye still didn't open his eyes, as if he was dead.

At first, I still wanted to call Deye, but I couldn't help it, but after a while, I felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly touched his forehead with my fingers, feeling cold and cold, and suddenly my heart was groaning, and the secret saying is not good, is the old guy dead.

I was so frightened that I was about to go to the village to call someone, but as soon as I ran ten meters or so, suddenly there was a giggling sound behind me, as if I was biting a stone with my teeth.

I tightened my body, paused, turned the lantern and looked back.

Suddenly, I found that De Ye was actually laughing, but his appearance was very weird, there were a few more blue lines on his forehead at this time, and his eyes had changed, very cold.

De Ye smirked like this, terrifying, and I took a step back in panic.

Suddenly, De Ye's body twisted violently, like a burst of bamboo, limped up from the spot, grabbed the branch of the old tree behind him, hung on it, and made a strange sound in his mouth.

"Truly, the slave is alive, swear to protect it to the death!"

De Ye kept chattering in his mouth, opening his mouth, dripping with a hara, and in the middle of the night, a strange scene that suddenly appeared made people shudder.

I was too frightened to squeak, but De Ye suddenly made a strange move, and he slammed into the stone pier.

With a "bang", Deye's brain blossomed, blood spurted, and I was really scared by this impact.

But Master De didn't die, he stood up with blood all over his head, and he was about to hit it again when he staggered, so I hurriedly rushed up and hugged him tightly: "Master, what are you doing, stop it." ”

"Little ...... Little son, do it! De Ye tried to regain a trace of consciousness, I was stunned, thinking that it seems that I am really going to do it, this old guy's strength is really great, and he can't hold it.

I looked left and right, hurriedly grabbed a wooden stick next to me, muttered in my heart that I couldn't help it, and then without saying a word, knocked it down.

De Ye immediately fell to the ground with a muffled sound, but the old guy's head was hard and seemed to be still moving, so in desperation, I had to knock twice more to make sure he fainted before letting go.

To be honest, this is the first time I've encountered this kind of stuffy thing, and the key is that people ask for it.

On the ground, De Ye was lying there motionless, if it wasn't for a little breathing, I really thought I was dead, there was no way, I had to carry De Ye back to the broken temple.

Surprisingly, in the broken temple, the rest of the old eunuchs were gone, I remember that in the past month or so, there were about seven or eight people who died, and it stands to reason that there should be some more.

But now, how can I care about other people, put De Ye on the small wooden bed inside, light a bonfire, and finally bandage his old man simply.

This night, I was so frightened that I didn't dare to leave, and it wasn't until dawn that I got up and went out to find my uncle.

My uncle was careless, and my grandson didn't come back all night without worry, so I hurriedly told what had happened, and my uncle called a small village doctor to rush over.

In the end, after diagnosis and treatment, Deye's life was saved, but he was in a coma for three days.

And in the past three days, several corpses have been found in the village, all of which belong to those old eunuchs, that is to say, almost everyone is dead, and only Deye is left.

Frightened and uneasy, for a while there was a rumor in the village, and I was even more confused in my heart, what happened and why they all died, thinking of the night of Deye, a chill arose from the bottom of my heart.

Three days later, Deye woke up, and the first thing he said was to ask me to serve a bowl of water.

Looking at this thin old man like a tree trunk, my heart was full of confusion, and after Deye drank three bowls of water, I just wanted to ask a question.

As a result, De Ye seemed to see through my thoughts, waved his hand and said, "Xiaoshengzi, I know what you want." ”

As soon as I heard it, it seemed that there was a play, and I hurriedly sat next to him, although Master De was terrifying, and the people in the village did not dare to socialize, but I was not panicked at all.

"Master, what's the matter, they're all dead?" I asked.

De Ye looked at the broken temple with sad eyes, as well as the dozen or so wooden beds, as if he was recalling the dozen or so old guys.

"Dead, all dead, guys are finished." De Ye muttered to himself, and after a while, he began to sob, his voice was sharp, and I heard goosebumps all over it, and then De Ye wiped away his tears: "Ominous curse, no one can escape." ”

I was confused and hurriedly asked, "What kind of curse, you old man make it clear!" ”

De Ye's face returned to normal, touched his forehead, and got up to take a dilapidated wooden box from the side of the bed, with rusty iron locks strung on it.

This thing looks a little old, it is full of dust, and De Ye solemnly wiped and wiped the wooden box, and then pushed it over.

"Xiaoshengzi, take it, and when I leave, you can open it again." Deye's face was resolute, I was stunned, and I didn't know which tendon was wrong, so the ghost sent God to take this thing.

"Master De, this ......" I just wanted to post, but Master De shook his head, didn't want to say anything, and when he left, the old guy shouted at me, asking me not to come over for the next two days.

In desperation, I had to go home, and I didn't tell my uncle about the wooden box, I always felt that something was wrong.

After two days like this, the more I thought about it, the more wrong it became, and I glanced in the direction of the ruined temple a few times, and finally on the third night, I rushed over with courage.

It wasn't until the temple entrance was broken that I discovered a strange scene.

At the entrance of the old temple, there was a person, a mysterious black-clothed man wearing a cloak and a hat, holding an iron chain in his hand, like a god of death, giving people a sense of suffocation.

The mysterious figure was strange, blocked at the entrance of the broken temple, there was a flickering fire inside, and vaguely, I saw De Ye sitting on the edge of the bed, looking out calmly.

The two of them looked at each other for a long time, and after a long time, De Ye said, "It's here!" ”

The mysterious man gently pulled the chain, like the scythe of death, and then took a step forward, and the smell of blood spread from his body.

To be honest, I have never believed in ghosts and gods, even if there are many tricks in the countryside in the village, I have never believed in them, but when I saw this mysterious person, I hesitated a little.

Obviously, the visitor was not good, and when I saw the mysterious person entering the ruined temple, I was worried that De Ye was in danger, so I looked left and right, took a stick in my hand, and touched it close to the door.

Inside, the bonfire was beating, and the mysterious man turned his back to me and said to Deye: "It's been decades, the ends of the earth, where can I hide!" ”

De Ye smiled and sighed, "Come on, I'm dead, it's all over." ”

He is not afraid of death at all, I have a sad heart, the old guy has known me for more than ten years, and he is a good old man, although he has a strange temperament, but he has also taught me a lot of knowledge.

Obviously, this is a game of death, and De Ye is about to die, the mysterious man smiled, and as soon as the iron chain in his hand moved, he was about to throw it at De Ye.

Seeing that the old guy didn't resist, I was in a hurry, grabbed a wooden stick and rushed in, shouting: "Stop!" ”
