Chapter 226: Everyone is gone
Whether a person is alive or dead, there will be a different aura in his body. However, there was nothing on the body of this male corpse.
I couldn't help but reach out and touch its head, only to realize that it was really a dummy! Moreover, this dummy is actually vivid! It's almost indistinguishable!
What's more, under our careful observation left and right, there is more than one such dummy! At every stretch of the road through the field, you can see two or three of these things.
However, why did the people in this Lock God Village make this kind of thing? It's really puzzling!
I glanced at my cousin and tried to find the answer from her.
However, my cousin also had a strange expression at this time! Looks like. For this kind of thing. She's also unaware!
Tang Xiao couldn't help but ask me, "Lin Shuo, what do you say these things are for?" Why is it so scary? ”
Hearing Tang Xiao's question, I couldn't help but be dumbfounded. However, he still explained: "It is very likely that the crops are protected!" Mainly to scare people who are going to steal from the crops. It's similar to the nature of a scarecrow! It's just that the scarecrow is used to scare the birds. And this thing is really used to scare people! ”
Hearing my explanation, Tang Xiao just let out an "oh", and I don't know if I believe it.
Actually, when I saw these dummies, I was also a guilty mutterer in my heart! Even if it's scary. They shouldn't have made such a spooky thing! Moreover, do the villagers in this Suoshen Village have such good craftsmanship? How can you make this kind of thing look like this? It's hard to tell the real from the fake!
Looking at these dummies, I also noticed a little. That is, there seems to be a yellow face in front of each dummy. It's kind of like a charm, but because of the long period of wind and sun, these charms have begun to fade. Some of them can't see the cinnabar marks on them clearly! There are even many of these spells that are already starting to break.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but be surprised again! Why are there still charms on these dummies? Or rather, why use spells to suppress these dummies? Are they more than just dummies?
I didn't expect that when I first came here, I could see such an unpredictable thing.
Looking at the Lock God Village located not far in front of us, I vaguely felt that this village was not as simple as I thought!
As we walked a little bit further, we found a lot of these dummies. There are hundreds! Moreover, each dummy is in a different form. and they may stand, or they may kneel, or they may lie in the field. However, the only thing in common is that the expressions on the faces are all unusually hideous, painful, and weird! It's as if you've suffered the greatest capital punishment, and people don't dare to look at it directly!
In a few moments, we walked through the crops. It's a real entry into the village!
The structure of the houses in this village is still very reasonable. However, most of them are big stone houses! A house like this is still very old! And, since it is an old house. Therefore, the inside of the house will look extra dark! Even in broad daylight, we stood at the door of a house and looked inside. I can't see what's going on inside!
We have even seen that there are many houses that are no longer occupied. The doors and windows outside had fallen from their original places. I don't know if it's because the village doesn't communicate with the outside world all year round, resulting in a sparse population. Or the people in the village have moved to live in the city. In short, it gives people a sense of barrenness and dilapidation!
As we walked along the way, we felt very different that we didn't see a single figure here! Even in the whole village, except for one or two dog barks that could be heard from time to time, there was no other sound.
That's weird! Where have all the people in this village gone? In broad daylight, it can't all disappear for no reason! Did they all go to work in the fields? It's absolutely impossible! Needless to say, we had just passed through the fields and had not seen a single figure. Even if they were really in the crops. So, what about the old people and children in the village? Where did they go? Surely all the people in the village will go to work!
The more I thought about it, the more I wondered!
Before I knew it, I suddenly remembered the dummies I had seen in the fields before! They can't be the people of this village! Or maybe it's just a deserted village! There is nothing at all!
So, why did my cousin bring us here?
With a stomach full of doubts, we followed my cousin around a few times in a row. Finally, I finally came to the front door of a house!
My cousin knocked on the door, but there was no response.
My cousin was stunned for a moment. Then, there was another knock on the door.
However, there was still no movement!
At this moment, even my cousin was a little undecided.
Tang Xiao frowned and asked, "Could it be because there is no one in the house?" That's why no one opened the door for us! ”
The cousin shook her head and said, "I don't know! Or maybe not. Lin Shuo, you see that this wall is not too high. Why don't you jump in and open the door for us!" ”
Hearing my cousin's words, I was slightly stunned. Say, "That's not good! If there really is no one at home, then I am not a thief? ”
Tang Xiao glanced at me on the side and said, "What's that?" This is my cousin's in-laws' house. We accompanied our cousin back to my mother-in-law's house to visit relatives, how did we become thieves? ”
Hearing Tang Xiao say this, I also feel reasonable! I didn't say anything more. I found a low wall directly and used both hands. Climbed straight up the low wall.
Just as I sighed my head off the wall, ready to check on the inside of the yard. Suddenly, out of my peripheral eye, I saw something coming from below my side towards where I was.
After so many ups and downs, my reflexes have long since changed!
I didn't see exactly what it was, though. Still, I instinctively flashed back. The whole person jumped off the wall again.
It was at this time that I saw a large mouth of blood appear in the place where I had just been. Then, the next second, it disappeared again!
I'm looking at it inexplicably! I don't know exactly what that one was.
Still, I'm sure of it. If I had been a little bit late, the consequences would have been terrible!
I couldn't help but glance at my cousin. My cousin was also scared at this time!
Tang Xiao couldn't help but run to my side at this time, and asked me nervously, "Lin Shuo, are you okay?" ”
I shook my head. Then, he asked Tang Xiao, "Did you see what it was just now?" ”
Tang Xiao nodded and said, "It's a dog!" A big black wolfdog! ”
Hearing this, I frowned. The other party has a dog in the yard. If we want to get in, it's definitely harder!
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but turn my head and look at Lele.
Lele's eyes lit up when he noticed me looking at him. However, then he said no more. Instead, he walked to the door and said coldly inside, "Get out!" ”
Then, as if nothing had happened, he walked back again.
I was stunned! It gives me the feeling that he didn't do anything at all!
However, in order to verify the idea in my heart. I jumped on the wall again. It's just that this time I'm a little more careful!
As soon as I came to the top of the wall, I immediately noticed that there was a big wolf dog more than two meters long and pitch black huddled in the middle of the courtyard at this moment!
Just looking at the head of a big wolf dog is really scary!
At this time, as if it had been frightened by something, it just curled up there. The whole body is shaking!
I looked at the big wolfdog and then turned my head to look at Lele.
Lele turned his head and ignored the situation on my side.
After hesitating for a moment, I couldn't help but jump off the wall.
But the big wolf dog didn't react at all, and still curled up there, not daring to move!
I cautiously walked over and opened the door.
When Tang Xiao and my cousin saw the big wolf dog in front of them clearly, they were so frightened that they hid behind me!
Lele ignored the big wolf dog and walked directly past it. Walk straight inside the house.
We all know very well in our hearts that the reason why this big wolf dog is this performance at this time. That's all because I'm afraid of that thing on Lele! If Lele wasn't here, maybe it would be a situation!
Thinking of this, we all followed closely behind Lele.
As soon as we entered the house, we immediately felt that it was dark.
I was able to get used to it and see what was going on around me.
I saw that the whole furniture in the house was all that kind of old and old furnishings. Although it has been cleaned. Still, the lacquer on it will be dull and give it a dirty feel.
We didn't stay in the outhouse for too long. So, I went straight to the master bedroom. However, there was no one in the entire master bedroom.
That's weird! Where has this man gone?
Tang Xiao couldn't help but ask his cousin, "Cousin, what about their family?" ”
"I don't know!" My cousin said lightly.
"Are we going to wait here for them to come back? It's so dark here, it's scary! ”
