Chapter 13: The Graveyard in the Dead of Night
I felt that he was simply making trouble, obviously afraid that Murong Yu would blame them and use me as a shield, so he pouted and said: "You are afraid of Murong Yu, but I am not afraid of him, I want to see what he wants to do." ”
The village chief was stunned: "Murong Yu? Who is it? ”
I looked at him, smiled and didn't speak, it seems that he still doesn't know the real name of the master he respects so much.
I found a clean place and sat down, and the village chief told me a little uneasy: "Jiang Cha, you are guarding here, don't run around." ”
I glanced at him: "Okay, village chief, don't worry, this matter was not done by me, and I have nothing to fear." ”
"Uh, that's good, that's good." The village chief said curtly, then walked around the courtyard, turned around and went out.
When the villagers saw that the village chief was gone, they all dispersed, anyway, now that there is a scapegoat for the matter of the ancestral hall, they don't have to worry about being blamed by Murong Yu, so they are relieved.
When I was the only one left in the ancestral hall, I stood up and went to the offering table where the tablet was placed and took a closer look.
The tablet was so large that it was difficult for ordinary people to reach for it, unless they jumped on the table, and I looked at the spotless table, leaving no traces.
But I already have the answer in my heart, this kind of thing is nothing more than someone deliberately doing it and blaming me, out of Wang Lin's mother and daughter, I can't think of anyone else.
But there was no evidence, so I frowned and turned around in front of the offering table a few times, bent down, pulled back the table and looked underneath the table.
Sure enough, there is a small pearl earring here, the pearl is not big, it should be real, right? I held it in my hand and looked at it for a long time, and I couldn't remember anyone in the village who had ever brought such jewelry.
It doesn't matter, even if I don't know whose it is, it can be used as evidence, I don't believe that Murong Yu has any excuse to deal with me, besides, I also want to ask him about the whereabouts of my mother.
Time passed very slowly, and I sat until the sun went down, and it was already dark in the ancestral hall, and a figure appeared through the doorway.
The figure obviously noticed me, but there was no surprise, and he chuckled and asked, "Jiang Cha, are you still here?" ”
I replied angrily: "Otherwise? If I leave, don't the village chiefs be scared to death? You are so majestic in the village. ”
"Is there one?" Murong Yu's terrifying face appeared in front of me, and his nose was about to stick to my nose.
But I didn't make any movement on the surface, I didn't even blink my eyes, I stared straight at his blue skin and dark eyes.
But my violent heartbeat couldn't hide it from myself, and I couldn't hide it from Murong Yu, who was so close to me, he chuckled and said, "Dead girl, pretend to be calm, but your heart is about to jump out, right?" But it's good, you've improved a lot. ”
I rolled my eyes and said impatiently: "Don't talk nonsense, now that you're here, let's talk about it, I'll go home for dinner if it's okay." ”
"What? You have a good life with that Su Che? Murong Yu asked curiously.
I stood up and said impatiently, "If you're not going to get serious with me, I'm leaving." ”
"Don't want to know your mother's whereabouts?" A gentle word immediately stopped me from leaving.
I turned around, walked up to Murong Yu and stared into his eyes and asked, "Of course, where did she go?"
Murong Yu didn't answer my question, walked over and looked at the broken tablet on the table, turned back to me and said, "I can tell you, but how do you explain this matter?" ”
I smiled slightly, stretched out my palm and showed the pearl earring I had been holding: "The owner of this thing is the real destroyer, what else do you say?" ”
Looking at the earrings in my hand, Murong Yu smiled lightly: "But who is its owner?" How can I trust you? ”
I bit my lip and glared at Murong Yu: "I don't believe it, forget it, what do you want?" Why do you have to target me? ”
"Why, it's just that you're a more interesting girl." Murong Yu's dark eyes flickered a few times.
I stomped my foot: "Do you even say it?" What happened to my mom, where did she go, why did she leave me alone? ”
"Before I tell you, I want you to fix this tablet for me, would you?" Murong Yu asked.
I was stunned for a moment, and asked in disbelief, "Really?" You're not going to lie to me again this time, are you? ”
"Really, I'm not going to lie to you." Murong Yu said lightly.
I rolled my eyes: "Is that a retractor good?" ”
Murong Yu sneered and stretched out his finger.
In the twilight, his fingers were white and slender, completely different from the blue and black color I had imagined, and I wondered how a person with such beautiful fingers could have such a horrible face.
I also stretched out my little finger and touched Murong Yu's little finger, the tentacles were soft, and it was not as cold as a ghost, I couldn't help but ask, "Are you a human or a ghost?" ”
Murong Yu didn't speak, and after hooking his fingers with me, he said, "Now, I want you to go to Huling, three miles away, where there are several deserted graves, and one of them has a depression in the tombstone, you can get me a few drops of water." ”
I was taken aback, looked at Murong Yu and asked, "Did you do it on purpose?" Let me run so far at night, and go to the cemetery? ”
"You can refuse, just go home and eat, anyway, now the life and death of the people in the village has nothing to do with you, why should you take such a risk for them?" Murong Yu said lightly.
I bit my lip and was silent, then asked, "What about my mother......"
"No comment." Murong Yu turned around, ignored me anymore, and went straight back to his house.
I stood in the darkening courtyard for a while, and finally couldn't help but stomp my feet, ran to Murong Yu's door and shouted: "Murong Yu, you bastard remember me, I will definitely get what you need back, but when I come back, if you don't tell me my mother's whereabouts, I'll be over with you!" ”
Murong Yu's room was pitch black, and he didn't plan to pay attention to me at all.
I turned around and walked out of the yard, and walked briskly to my home, Su Che's house I will go later, I don't know where his things are, I have to go home first and get a flashlight.
When I got home, I turned on the light, found a flashlight and an app, walked around the house a few times, and then went to the kitchen to get a sharp kitchen knife pinned to my waist before going out.
Now it was completely dark, there was no moon in the sky, only a little starlight, and there was nothing to see without a flashlight.
When I came to the door of Su Che's house, I saw at a glance that there was no light inside, this guy didn't know why he went, so he didn't push the door in, and began to walk along the mountain road in the direction Murong Yu said.
I've been to that place before, and when I was a kid and my mom went up the mountain to pick mushrooms, I used to pass by there, so I still have a lot of impressions.
This road is a rugged mountain road, not to mention that it is not easy to walk, there are dense woods on both sides, and I dare not go alone during the day on weekdays, but now, I can't help but walk.
Leaving the village farther and farther, my flashlight could not shine too far away, I could only see the appearance of about ten meters in front of me, and the fear in my heart increased little by little as I walked, and I always felt that there was something hidden in the bushes on the side of the road.
Once a person faces an unknown environment, the originally bold person will become timid, because he should always fantasize about something terrifying.
That's what I'm like now, walking with something behind me, but looking back there is nothing.
But the more I walked, the more scared I became, so I had to take out a kitchen knife to give myself courage.
I didn't walk fast, and I don't know how long it took to stop and go, but I finally reached my destination.
The clothes on my body were soaked with sweat again, and as soon as I stopped and was blown by the night breeze, I couldn't help but shiver.
There are a few small earthen bags in front of him, and if it weren't for the fact that there are a few stone tablets in front of the earthen bags, no one would know how many graves they are, right? This is the place Murong Yu said.
I didn't care about anything else, I found a flat place to sit down and rest, and curiously used a flashlight to look at the surroundings, this place had been passed before, but it was the first time I came at night.
The forest is so dense that the light can't shine too far, and I can still hear some birds cooing in the forest.
I looked at the tombstone casually, I don't know why Murong Yu asked me to come here to get so many drops of water, maybe the identity of the tomb owner is related to the person on the tablet in the ancestral hall?
Really, because the first name I saw was the name on the broken tablet, and it turned out that he was his grave.
Then I saw a second tombstone that was a little shorter, and the words on it were a little small, and I leaned over to see it, and it read: Tomb of Ginger Tea.
I feel like my hair is blowing up, my grave?
Rubbing my eyes, I couldn't believe what I saw, and I looked at it again, yes, it was my name.
This is a bit terrifying, I don't know if this is Murong Yu's prank, I reached out and touched it on the tombstone, the tentacles felt cold, the handwriting was very deep, and my fingers could feel the lines of each word.
However, as my fingers stroked my name, my previous fear calmed down, and I thought to myself, if this was my final destination, it would be good, and now I would lie down and sleep.
Yes, I had such a strange thought in my heart, and suddenly I felt that I was very tired and miserable, and the best way to end it was to lie down in the grave, close my eyes, and never wake up again.
I knew that I was not normal, but I could not resist the temptation of sleep, and my eyelids became more and more heavy, and I was about to fall asleep soon.
A cloud of yellow light stung my eyes, and I heard a terrible scream that pierced the silence of the night.
