The next day, Lin Chen's alarm clock didn't go off, and when he woke up, it was already dawning, and if he rushed to the company now, he would definitely be late.

Lin Chen decided not to go to class, he hung up the phone to the boss and worked from home.

When he was buying bread and milk in the shop downstairs, and was about to buy something else, two people came in, and they looked like workers on the construction site, one fat and one thin, one tall and one short, all wearing blue overalls, who had come to buy cigarettes.

"Otherwise, I'll go back after I get paid next month." Said the fat man with a round face

"Is it just yesterday's foreman?" The tall and thin worker asked.

The fat man glanced at the goods on the shelves behind him and said, "It's not all, it's boring anyway!" Miss my daughter-in-law! This is a, or no, you still owe me wages!"

Then he said to the shopkeeper, "Boss, why don't you have some good cigarettes and good wine here?" The last time I bought the second pot head, I drank something wrong, it's not a fake bar mixed with water! ”

"No! I'm here, although the shop is small, but the things are genuine! The shopkeeper said.

The tall and thin man said in a disdainful tone, "Our fat brother is an authentic smoker and wine fairy!" Whether it's smoke or wine, it's real or fake! The puree, or blended, he knows it when he smells it! ”

The shopkeeper looked aggrieved, "I really don't have any fakes here!" Absolute integrity management! Fake one pays ten! ”

The fat man continued to scan the wine on the shelves, "Well, I believe you! Well, you don't seem to have anything here except Jingdong Erguotou! ”

"What do you want to drink?"

The shopkeeper stared at the computer, continuing to play the game, and glanced at them out of the corner of his eye.

"Fenjiu, old kiln wine is fine! Don't be too soft, it's best to have a little energy! The fat man said.

"Sanhua wine is also fine!" The tall and skinny man added.

"How much do you want?" The shopkeeper stopped tapping his fingers and raised his head to ask.

"We, how many more bottles can we want! We'll drink to relieve our boredom! Not much! Just one or two bottles! ”

"Forget it! I can't earn two dollars, and it's not enough for me to toss! ”

"Boss, this!"

The shopkeeper stood up, and before the shopkeeper could ask, the tall and thin man pointed to the cigarettes on the counter and said, "How much are these two packs?"

"Forty-two! Don't buy anything else? ”

"No!" The tall and thin man replied.

"What do you order?" Seeing that Lin Chen had been standing aside without speaking, the shopkeeper asked.

"Bring me a loaf of bread!"

The two workers paid the money and went out with their cigarettes, and Lin Chen had nothing to buy, so he only took bread, paid the bill, and went out.

They turned a corner from the shop, went up to the mound, and walked in the direction of the construction site.

"Do you know why I want to go home?" The fat man said as he walked.

Lin Chen followed behind them and listened to it clearly.

"Then you can still ask! Live more, spend less! The tall and thin man said.

"Well, that's not all! I have nightmares every night here! Is it the reason why the feng shui here is not good? ”

The fat man stopped, turned his face to the tall son, and had a tired expression on his face.

Lin Chen also stopped, he was fine today anyway, since he moved over, he went out early and returned late every day, and he had never taken a closer look here.

"Really?" The tall and thin man said, "What a coincidence, I thought I was the only one who had nightmares after moving here!" ”

"It's not just a dream! There's even more to come! The fat man said.

"What's wrong?"

"Some time ago, one of the brothers in our team encountered an incident! I said it, I guess you don't believe it! That day, after he finished his work, he walked back along the road over there, and he heard the sound of a motorcycle coming behind him, but after walking for a long time, he didn't see the motorcycle coming, and when he looked back, guess what! ”

"What's wrong?"

"What a motorcycle behind you! Not even a figure! ”

"What the hell!"

"Not really! That old man, who is not afraid of the sky or the earth on weekdays, ran back in a panic this time, his hands and feet trembled, saying that he would never walk that road alone! ”

"I heard that this was originally a large cemetery, and it was a famous mass grave! After the liberation, the government had a rule that mass burials could not be carried out, and the place was deserted. In recent years, the real estate has been hot, and the land in the city has been almost divided, and several large real estate developers have been eyeing this land, such a broken land, it is said that the land price is not low! ”

The tall man added, and with that he handed the fat man a cigarette and lit it for him.

The fat man took a few puffs of smoke and said, "I said! Ever since I came here, I've always felt that something was wrong! It turns out that the yin qi here is heavy! I didn't know that before!"

"No, it won't!" Lin Chen interjected on the side, "When I moved here, the landlord said that the feng shui of this place is good!"

The fat man looked at Lin Chen, "I haven't seen you before!" Just moved here, right?"

Then, he squinted and looked around.

It was an open field, and not far away was a forest of aspens, birches, and pines, which seemed to have been planted by hand, and behind which an old forest had been cut down, with only a few low, thick stumps, and behind the apartments, on the other side of the site, in addition to some broken bricks, and in the distance you could see some bare hills.

The thin and tall man also handed Lin Chen a cigarette, helped him light it, and said with a smile: "Look at you are a real person!" You believe the landlord's words! There is such a mound, if you plant two trees, you will say that it is a mountain forest, and if you sprinkle it with urine, it will become a lake and a mountain!"

Chen Lin also smiled.

"Do you know that a few days ago, a large black coffin was dug up at the construction site?" The tall and thin man lowered his voice.

"What's in there?" The fat man looked curious, "I said, I went to get the tools that day, and I saw some people around the construction site from afar, but the head was urging at that time, although I was curious, but I was in a hurry, so I didn't have time to come over to see, hey, did you see something?" ”

"Well, there are a lot of onlookers, but fortunately I'm tall and stretch my neck to see clearly. When the coffin was opened by them, a sullen black gas gushed out from it, choking the few people who opened the coffin and coughing. When the black gas dissipated, and then looked inside the coffin, there was nothing, only a lump of rotten cotton, and a few pieces of dark green blackened broken silk, probably a shroud! The tall and thin man said.

"Is there a corpse?" The fat man asked again.

"No! Nothing! It's strange to say, there is not even a bone! Maybe it's been too long, and people have turned into water! ”

The tall and thin man said as he busily spit out smoke rings.

"Didn't see any artifacts? Is there anything valuable? Lin Chen asked.

The tall and thin man glanced at Lin Chen, took a sullen puff of his cigarette, and shook his head.

"Nope! If there is, we won't send it, hehe! The coffin was rotten, and there was nothing but cotton and pieces of silk cloth in it! ”

"Yes! If there is really a cultural relics treasure, it will not be your turn to me, let's worry about it! The fat man said to himself.

"Have coffins been dug up here before?" Lin Chen asked curiously.

"That's a lot! You see the construction site behind these buildings, there's a big hole dug up, and it's piling, and there's a low wall behind it, and the workers just lined up the skulls on the low wall, and if you're okay, you can go and have a look. ”

"Huh? A row of skulls! Lin Chen had a surprised expression on his face, "There are so many skulls lined up on the low wall, this is like making a horror movie!" Isn't that a prank! Everyone guards so many skulls every day, don't be afraid! It's no wonder you don't have nightmares at night! ”

The tall and thin man said, "It's been a long time since I saw it!" Dig out the skull, don't put it on the low wall, where do you say it's appropriate! There are no instructions from above, this is a mass grave, and I don't know how many dead people are buried in layers of ground! Putting the skull on a low wall is also considered a sign of respect for the dead! It's nothing during the day! If there are many people, you are not afraid! It's just that at night, few people want to go there! ”

Lin Chen gently dusted off his cigarette ash and said with a smile: "As you can imagine, that scene must be spectacular!" ”

"You don't need to imagine, it's not far, otherwise, let the fat man accompany you! The fat man is a warm-hearted man! Right? Fatso! ”

"What? Let me go? Why don't you go with me! You can't scare me to death! ”

The fat man looked white and tall, thin.

"Skull, there's nothing to be afraid of, right?" The tall and thin man said.

It was windy and a little cold, Lin Chen shrank and wrapped his coat.

"Nothing, I can go myself! One day, it's okay, I'll go around! Lin Chen said.

As they were talking, an old lady in a fat blue shirt walked in the distance, fat, gray-haired, with trembling steps, and a few months old child in her arms.

Although the old lady was fat, her steps were surprisingly light, and the old lady walked past them without making a sound.

Lin Chen looked curiously into the old lady's arms, but saw that the child was bareheaded, wrapped in a small flower, not crying, nor moving, only showing his bare head, and he was sleeping with his eyes closed, but when Lin Chen looked at him, he suddenly opened his eyes, those eyes were round and big, staring at Lin Chen intently.

Lin Chen was surprised to find that the baby's head was sideways, and under the root of his ear, there was a vermilion mole that was exactly the same as his.

After the old lady walked by, she turned around and stared at Lin Chen in a daze.

In those astringent eyes, the eyeballs were particularly black and white, the eyes were small and black, and there were many whites, with a cold and murderous aura, which made Lin Chen's back cold.

"Do you recognize this old lady?"

Lin Chen hurriedly took two steps and caught up with the two workers who were walking in front.

"I don't know, I haven't seen it!" The tall and thin man replied.

"I haven't seen it either! What's wrong? The fat man said.

"Oh, nothing! Just ask! ”

Lin Chen's mind was still floating with the old lady's piercing eyes, which made Lin Chen feel a little indescribably frightened, and his eyes couldn't help but look for the old lady's distant back, and when he saw the old lady turn around a low earth wall, he couldn't see it.

After chatting a few more words, the two workers went to work first, and Lin Chen also went back to the apartment.
