Chapter 30: There are people, horses, and sedan chairs
I got my cousin's promise, my originally somewhat depressed and nervous heart finally relaxed a little, perhaps, I don't necessarily know my cousin's current identity, I just want to make a promise with my cousin, promising that we will both live well tonight.
My cousin gave me a faint smile for the first time, and then he turned around and walked towards the outside of the City God Temple.
I didn't ask my cousin where he was going, and although he often left inexplicably during the time he came back, I believe that there must have been a reason for his departure.
After my cousin left, I was the only one left in the City God Temple, although it was only afternoon at this time, but the gloomy sky outside and the dead silence in the City God Temple gave people a feeling of panic.
According to my cousin's instructions, I didn't dare to go out of the temple at all, so I sat on the ground and took out my mobile phone to play for a while, but in the end I didn't feel much fun, so I put my phone away and stared at the statue of the god god above.
Before I experienced these things, I didn't believe in the existence of the City God, I was naughty when I was a child, and even peed in this City God Temple, at that time my father found out about it, and beat me up severely, and then made me kneel in front of the statue of the City God all night.
At the time, I felt very aggrieved, thinking that this was not just a statue, and I felt that my father was making too much of a fuss, but now that I think about it, these things I did at that time were really bastards, but fortunately, Lord Chenghuang was generous and didn't care about me, otherwise I don't know how to die.
Because I was so bored, I started chatting with Cheng Hong Ye when it was almost dark, and although I was talking to myself all the time, I felt that Cheng Huang Ye would be able to hear me.
Naturally, the content of the chat is nothing special, except for letting Lord Chenghuang not remember the villain, forgive me for the bastard things I did here when I was a child, and let him protect me tonight, for the rest, I am just explaining what happened during this time.
In fact, I still delusionally thought that the powerful City God Lord could tell me some answers and help me unravel the answers to this series of strange things, and even thought that like the plot in the movie, the City God suddenly appeared, and saw my bones in amazement, he was a one-in-a-million cultivation genius, took me as an apprentice, and then passed on my peerless magic skills to beat those evil ghosts to the ground.
But it turns out that everything is too much for me to think about, the city god has not appeared, he is a high god of the underworld, how can he talk to a mortal man like me.
As it got getting late, I felt sleepy, and finally before I knew it, I fell asleep leaning against the shrine.
I don't know how long I slept until I was woken up by a loud suona sound.
Hearing this voice, my closed eyes immediately opened, and then the whole person stood up, and my scalp felt numb.
At first, I thought I was dreaming, but when I stood up, the pain from hitting my arm against the shrine suddenly woke me up, this was not a dream, at this time, there was really a suona sound coming from outside the door.
It was pitch black all around, and outside the door was a bleak full moon, and the pale moonlight shone through the door from the outside, setting off the entire City God Temple very strangely.
And the sound of suona outside is even more weird.
When I was a child, the village in my area would invite the suona team to blow for several days, whether it was a red or white thing, and although I couldn't understand the name of some of the tunes, I could understand their meaning.
The tune of the happy event is very festive, and the tune of the white thing is very depressing, and at this time, the tune of the suona outside is intertwined with celebration and depression, to put it bluntly, the song of marriage and the song of the dead are played together at the same time, intertwined into this particularly terrifying and weird tune today.
It was like a harsh spell, constantly stimulating the weakest part of my heart, and I also understood one or two at this time, it was very likely that Fu Xiaoqin and they were here.
I just don't know if it's an adult or a minor who is coming now!
I seemed to be attracted by this weird suona tune, and soon my whole mind was filled with the sound of this suona, and then I felt that my whole brain began to be muddy, and I followed this tune, step by step towards the outside of the City God Temple.
But soon, there was a sudden gust of wind in the temple, and it was very strange that the wind was blowing from the temple, and the wind was not strong, so I felt that someone was blowing on the back of my neck, and soon I felt that the back of my neck was cold, as if there was a very long and thin needle, which suddenly pierced the back of my neck.
This sudden tingling sensation made my chaotic brain wake up violently, and although the suona sound still sounded in my ears, I was no longer seduced by it at this time.
At this time, I found out that one of my feet had actually stepped out of the City God Temple, I was scared out of a cold sweat, and hurriedly took this foot back, and then nervously held the temple door next to me with my hand, and looked into the distance along the suona sound.
Although it was very dark outside, the pale moonlight did not make me blind, on the contrary, I found that my eyesight was quite good at this time, and I could even see many things at the location of the Longxi Bridge more than 300 meters away.
But after seeing the scene over there, I'd rather I'm a blind man who can't see anything now, because the scene that appears over there is so penetrating.
I saw a group of figures over there, about twenty people, because it was too far away for me to see what they looked like or dressed, but I could make some rough outlines.
There are people, horses, and sedan chairs!
Yes, this is completely a welcoming team that has been eliminated in modern society for many years.
More than 20 people, from the direction of Tianfu Mountain, went down the Longxi River all the way to the Longxi Bridge, and then the group walked up the Longxi Bridge and walked in the direction of our Longxi Village.
In front of the team, there was a horse that could not distinguish the color, but through the size of the horse, it can be seen that the horse is very strong, and on the back of the horse, there is a person sitting, the head is high, and there is a big red flower hanging faintly on his chest, although he can't see his specific appearance, but it can be inferred that this person must be in high spirits now.
I don't know why, but looking at the figure on horseback, I always felt a very familiar feeling, as if that person was very close to me.
And in front of the horse, there is someone holding the reins of the horse, the figure looks a little weak, and the walk is also limping, it looks very weird, and the person on the horse's back, this figure leading the horse, also gives me a familiar feeling.
Behind the horse, there is a sedan chair, which is carried by four people, and on both sides are musicians holding suona and gold pulling, playing the weird tune that makes people's scalp tingle.
At this time, the group of people has already walked across the Longxi Bridge, to be precise, they don't seem to be walking, but more like floating, and the most bizarre thing is that the sound of suona spread throughout the night sky, which can be described as very harsh, but our Longxi Village is a black light blind fire, and under the stimulation of this suona sound, no family turns on the lights.
Obviously, although I can hear this suona sound clearly, in Longxi Village, it seems that no one can hear this lock sound at all, that is to say, this sound is only heard by me.
A drop of cold sweat quietly dripped down my forehead, and at this moment, I had no reason to suspect that the team was definitely not human.
I clasped the temple gate of the city god with both hands, sweating nervously, my eyes staring at the back of the team entering Longxi Village, my heart had already risen to my throat.
As the team got farther and farther away from me, the sound of the suona gradually became smaller, and my nervous heart finally calmed down a little.
But when I saw where the team was going at the end, my heart tensed again, because the direction they were going was the same direction to my house.
