The heartache almost made it impossible for me to breathe, and finally I withdrew my hand from the top of my head, and just looked at the table in front of me stupidly, tears already rolling in my eyes.

"Eat, after tonight, maybe I won't be able to eat these dishes again, and I don't know if the grass on my grave will rise three feet high at this time next year."

I laughed self-deprecatingly, picked up the chopsticks in front of me again, and then picked up the bowl in front of me and gobbled it up.

Not long after I ate, my cousin walked in through the door and sat down across from me.

He didn't say anything, just picked up the bowl next to him and put a bowl of rice on it, and ate it too.

I glanced at my cousin, I don't know where he went last night, and now it seems that his whole complexion is actually much better, and it can even be described as energetic.

Surprised, I hurriedly asked him where he had been last night and why, after that night, his injuries looked all healed.

My cousin glanced at me, he didn't say much, but picked up the spoon on the side and scooped a spoonful of hibiscus eggs into my bowl: "Your favorite food is your uncle's steamed hibiscus eggs, his craftsmanship is better than yours, your steamed eggs are not as tender as his steamed eggs." ”

I took a bite and looked at my cousin who was scooping eggs into my bowl across from me, and suddenly smiled.

My cousin smiled when he saw me, and his usually tense face was loosened at this time, and he smiled too.

At this time, I seem to have returned to when I was a child, at that time, Fu Xiaoqin was not sick, and my aunt and Uncle Fu were not dead.

Every time our three children celebrate their birthdays, my dad and Uncle Fu will get together and make a big table of good dishes, they will drink as adults, and we children will grab hibiscus eggs to eat, my cousin has been relatively strong since he was a child, Fu Xiaoqin and I can't snatch him, every time he will grab a whole bowl of eggs to him.

And Fu Xiaoqin and I could only watch him cry, and at this time, my cousin would take the initiative to give the eggs to the two of us, and then I ate them together.

As we ate, all three of us laughed, innocently and carefree, and my cousin and I laughed exactly as we did back then.

In the end, the smile on his cousin's face still retracted, he put the chopsticks in his hand on the table, and said, "No matter what happens to you tonight, our two cousins will carry it together!" ”

My eyes moistened all of a sudden, before this, because of what Mrs. Zhang said to me, I always had a trace of suspicion and distrust of my cousin in my heart, but at this time, all the knots in my heart were opened, my cousin was always my cousin, and I no longer had any reason to doubt him.

"Hmm!"

I nodded heavily, didn't say anything, and continued to eat.

Soon, my cousin and I swept away the food on the table, and after cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks on the table, my cousin told me to leave with him.

It's also strange to say that in the winter on our side, because the weather is too cold, and it is often rainy, so the people in the village rarely go out to wander around, but despite this, there are still some idle people in the village who are wandering outside.

But from the day when the adult Fu Xiaoqin came to my house with 300,000 cash and crested hairpins to propose marriage, even during the day, it was rare to see people in this village come out for activities, only in the two days when Mrs. Zhang was drowned, most of the people in the village came out to watch the excitement, and then they hid in their homes one by one.

This is a very scary thing to think about, and that feeling is as if every household in this village seems to smell some special smell, so they will try to hide in their homes and not go out, even if Luo Dum came to knock on the door of my house again and again, he did not see any movement from the neighbors not far from my house.

Although it felt strange, I didn't think too much about it, after going out, my cousin may also be afraid that he would be discovered by the villagers, which would cause some unnecessary trouble, so he walked all the way very quickly, and because he was wearing my black sweatshirt, he also deliberately put the hat on his head.

Soon, my cousin and I walked to the Longxi Bridge, and after crossing the Longxi Bridge, it was almost out of the confines of our village, I thought that my cousin was trying to take me out of here, and then find a place for me to hide where Fu Xiaoqin couldn't find it.

But what I didn't expect was that my cousin didn't do this, and in fact, even if I really planned to run away today, would I be able to escape?

After crossing the Longxi Bridge, the cousin did not continue to walk outside for too long, but came to the City God Temple, which was about two hundred meters away from the Longxi Bridge, and stopped.

I have also said before that after the incident that thousands of people disappeared overnight in Miao Village, it became a famous ghost village.

Later, in order to avoid the devils, the refugees fled to this poor countryside to settle down, in order to suppress the evil in the burial cave that day, there was a Taoist who built the City God Temple at the foot of the Heavenly Burial Mountain, but it was never built, and then the City God Temple could only be built here, in order to seek psychological comfort.

However, this City God Temple seems to have some effect, bless the peace of this Longxi Village for decades, even if a group of tomb robbers broke into the heavenly burial cave and had an accident, it was also their own sin, but it was not the business of the City God.

I'm not stupid, at this time I probably guessed the purpose of my cousin bringing me here, looking at this, he wanted to ask Lord Chenghuang to come forward to help me, although after this period of time after experiencing this series of strange things, I have gradually accepted the fact of the existence of ghosts and gods.

However, Lord Chenghuang is the legendary Yin God who has the rank of Yin Si, so it is a little ridiculous for him to come forward to protect him.

However, since my cousin brought me here, he must have his plans, and I didn't think too much about it, so I entered the City God Temple with my cousin.

Don't look at our poor and remote Longxi Village, there are also a lot of Diao people in the village, but because of the burial of the evil mountain behind the village, the people here are more convinced of ghosts and gods, and this City God Temple has kept the people safe for decades, so the villagers still have a lot of respect for the City God here.

On weekdays, almost every few days, the village chief will arrange for people to come and clean the City God Temple, and the incense in it has never been broken, and every year on May 15, our village will spontaneously organize a grand City God Party to celebrate the birthday of the City God.

At this time, it was only about three o'clock in the afternoon, although it was a very cold day, but the sun was still hanging in the sky, but when my cousin and I walked towards the City God Temple, somehow, the originally clear sky suddenly became gloomy, and soon the surroundings became a little lifeless.

I don't care about this kind of weather change on weekdays, but at this time I have to connect all this anomaly to what is about to happen tonight, so when I walked to the gate of the City God Temple, I was already sweating in my palms.

My cousin didn't have much mood swings, he stopped in front of the temple gate for a few seconds, as if he was observing something, and then led me into the temple.

In the center of the temple, the city god sat solemnly and solemnly on the temple, giving people a very majestic feeling.

In the past, I often came to the temple of the city god, but at that time, I didn't have any special feeling when I saw the statue of the god of the city god, I felt that he was just an ordinary statue, and at this time, a very strong sense of awe rose in my heart, and even a feeling of wanting to kneel and surrender.

At this time, the cousin's expression also became extremely serious, and he walked to the shrine in front of the statue of the city god, and then took out a black bag that had been carrying him on his back, and the bag was opened, and it actually contained incense, candles, and paper money.

My cousin lit the incense candle and inserted it into the shrine, then burned a stack of paper money, then turned to me and said, "Kneel." ”

I was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously knelt in front of the city god.

After I knelt down, my cousin said to the city god very reverently: "The city god is above, thank you Tianya in Xialongxi Village, this is my cousin Ye Nan, the city god has protected the people of Longxi Village for more than 70 years since the Republic of China, the wind and rain are smooth, the resentful spirits are not invaded, and the merit is immeasurable!" ”

Listening to my cousin's explanation, I only felt a thick layer of goosebumps all over my body, who would have thought that my cousin, who has always been extremely arrogant and indifferent, would actually shoot people's ass.

However, when I saw what happened next, my eyes were about to drop.
