Although he kept panting, his eyes were still fixed in the direction of the hole, as if something terrible would run out of it in the next second.

Perhaps curiosity was at work, Wang Tao forgot his fear for a while, and followed the villager's gaze towards the entrance of the cave.

As soon as the two of them fixed their eyes, they saw that the villagers who had just swarmed in were fleeing out of the cave in a hurry.

These people had just run out of the cave, and who knew that a large group of densely packed, petite animals would follow them right after.

Although these animals are not large, there are too many of them.

Even though Wang Tao was already some distance away from the entrance of the cave, his heart was still not affected by a small impact, not only visually, but also with a layer of goosebumps on his body.

This kind of scene is too weird, which makes Wang Tao's scalp tingle, and he muttered inadvertently: "Why are there so many wild cats in this cave?" ”

"Dazzled, you? That's obviously a bunch of yellow skins! ”

The villagers corrected his words in time, probably because they were too excited, and their voices unconsciously raised a little.

When he reacted, he hurriedly reached out and covered his mouth tightly.

Wang Tao's face stiffened when he heard this, and he looked at the villager helplessly, but he was secretly thinking in his heart: Could it be that we have found the wrong cave?

Twisting his neck back and forth in the surrounding wilderness and looking again, Wang Tao's heart began to feel a little bottomless, I remember that Uncle Guangcai clearly said that there was something left in the cave and needed me to help take it out?

What about the large group of yellow-skinned people who came out of the cave?

It can't be that Uncle Guangcai made a big joke on me, right?

Wang Tao scratched his face in embarrassment, thinking that Uncle Guangcai should not make such a boring joke, and said in his heart: It seems that either I misremembered the location of the cave that Uncle Guangcai said, or there was something else wrong with this matter.

Just when he couldn't make up his mind, he saw a villager who had fled in the wilderness went straight to the direction where Wang Tao and them were, and ran over with a roll.

Perhaps the villager was frightened, and when he inadvertently saw Wang Tao hiding behind the barren grass, he stared at him in fright and screamed on the spot, and then fell directly to the ground with his head on his back.

I saw that this man's hair was extremely messy, and his face was also pale and terrible, and he pointed to the entrance of the cave with his trembling fingers: "Ghost! Yes, yes, there are ghosts! ”

"Don't talk nonsense! Where the hell did it come from? Those were just yellow skins. ”

The villager beside Wang Tao couldn't help but interrupt him directly when he saw this villager talking nonsense.

Although Wang Tao was also taken aback by the huge number of yellow skins just now, it was indeed not a little bit related to ghosts, and I thought that this person must have been frightened a lot, so he would say such groundless words.

Unexpectedly, the villager suddenly stretched out his hand to the sky and swore an oath: "You have to believe me, I really didn't lie!" I could see it clearly in the cave just now! There's definitely a ghost in there! ”

"Really?"

Wang Tao looked at the villager dumbfounded, his heart was half cold, if you want to say believe his words, it always feels a little far-fetched, after all, a special existence like a ghost that cannot be seen or touched is difficult for ordinary people to see with the naked eye.

So, who dares to guarantee that he is not dazzled and blinded?

But there is a suspicion that he is talking nonsense, but he dares to swear to God, which makes it a little difficult to judge.

Wang Tao grinned coldly, stretched out a finger suspiciously, and kept swaying in front of the person's eyes: "Do you know how many fingers these are?" ”

The man lowered his head in a little frustration, and sighed helplessly: "Hey, I swear to the sky, you still don't believe me, how do you want me to prove it?" ”

"Faith! Who said I don't believe it anymore. ”

Wang Tao tilted his neck, stared at a pair of big eyes, reached out and patted the man's shoulder, sending him some encouragement.

Seeing this, the smile on the man's face was not yet fully blooming, only to see Wang Tao stretch out his finger again and stretch out in front of him with a smile: "Come on, come on, let's see how many fingers these are." ”

In fact, the reason why Wang Tao is so persistent is also to test whether this person is insane.

But the villager didn't think so, he thought that Wang Tao's childish approach completely insulted his IQ, so he was angry at the time with a red face and a thick neck.

There is no way, in order to prove that he really didn't tell a lie, and it can be regarded as a kind of reply to Wang Tao, I saw that the villager suddenly swore to the sky again: "If Lao Tzu tells a lie, he will be punished by the thunder of the sky and the death of the whole family!" You should be satisfied this time, right? ”

Wang Tao never expected that this guy would dare to swear such a ruthless poisonous oath, and at that time, he felt that the heart, liver and lungs in his body trembled at the same time, and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, and then slowly took back the fingers that had just been raised.

Everyone has said this, can Wang Tao not believe it?

Since he believed in the fact that there were ghosts, Wang Tao began to ask them what to do next.

"What else can I do? According to me, it's safer to go back to the village and hide! Just now the villager stood up from the ground tremblingly, he turned to look at the entrance of the cave, and said thoughtfully: "If you want to laugh at me for being cowardly, then I will admit it, anyway, I don't dare to stay here for any longer, how can we deal with this ghost?" Let's leave it at that! ”

After speaking, he arched his hand at Wang Tao and another villager, and went straight to the village along the path to return.

Wang Tao was still looking at the back of the man in a daze, but the villagers next to him tugged at his cuffs: "Don't be stunned, stupid boy, I think this thing is really evil, let's leave here quickly, so as not to make a fuss late and can't leave if you want to. ”

"But Uncle Guangcai told me before, saying that I asked him to help him take out the things in the cave. Now I haven't found anything, if I just go back to the village empty-handed, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain if I see him again in the future. ”

Although Wang Tao also wanted to leave this place as soon as possible, but when he thought of Uncle Guangcai's previous entrustment, he felt a little sour and guilty in his heart.

The villagers next to him saw that he was still struggling with such trivial things at this critical juncture, so they stomped their feet angrily and patted his head to give him a big truth.

If you lose your life today in order to go into the cave to find something, it will be more than worth the loss.

The life is gone, and there is nothing to talk about but not to explain.

As long as people live well, are you worried that you won't have the opportunity to come here to get things in the future?

"Hey, incisive, Uncle Wang! I didn't expect what you said to make sense. ”

Wang Tao covered his head and smirked thoughtfully, but Uncle Wang glanced at him angrily: "Your uncle will always be your uncle, and I have eaten more salted fish in my life than you have eaten." ”

As soon as the words fell, Uncle Wang glanced behind him very vigilantly, and saw that the villagers scattered in the surrounding grass were also constantly running to the path, so he immediately grabbed Wang Tao's hand and led him straight to the village to return.

The people who returned to the village in a panic that night closed the door very tacitly, and no one dared to step out of the door on this strange night...

Quiet night sky.

A looming crescent moon.

Slightly dull village.

It seemed like a very peaceful night.

People in every family have already fallen asleep.

At midnight, the originally quiet Tuli Village suddenly heard a heart-rending scream from the south of the village.

The screams pierced the night sky, as if reaching everyone's ears, and it seemed to be an ethereal illusion, making it impossible to distinguish the truth from the fake.

When it comes to the usual bustle in the village, this scream seems somewhat insignificant.

However, tonight is destined to be an extraordinary night.

At least Wang Tao was sure that he had heard the terrible sound at the time.

Although he was faintly uneasy, Wang Tao curled up in a corner of the earthen kang, but he didn't dare to go out to check.

Why don't you dare to go out?

He can't say why, the only reason is to judge intuitively.

Maybe there are people like him, who are shivering and huddled in a corner of the room, not daring to make a sound.

There may also be people who close their eyes and pretend to be asleep, pretending not to hear anything.

Or maybe someone has really slept soundly and deeply.

When the sun rose and gradually dispelled the darkness, when the first crowing of the rooster sounded at the head of the village, it was only then that Wang Tao on the kang breathed a sigh of relief: Whew, it can be regarded as surviving the night.

Putting on his shoes and putting on a shabby dress, Wang Tao opened the door with some curiosity and looked back and forth with two dark circles under his eyes.

The village was as quiet and peaceful as ever, as if nothing had happened.

It seems that last night was nothing more than scaring myself.

Quietly stretched out his hand and wiped a handful of sweat on his forehead, Wang Tao walked out of the door with a little hesitation.

habitually knocked on the door of Uncle Wang's house next door: "Knock knock!" ”

"Uncle Wang! At home? ”

"Knock knock!"

A black-lacquered door was banged by Wang Tao.

Not only did he hear Uncle Wang's familiar voice.

In turn, he was greeted by a moment of silence.

Wang Tao frowned, and his outstretched hand stopped in mid-air, usually the door of Uncle Wang's house is open, how can this be abnormal today?

Besides, where will Uncle Wang go in the morning?

Working in a rice field?

Or go to the old well in the village to carry water?

Wang Tao sighed softly, always feeling that today's atmosphere seemed a little weird.

Suspiciously, he walked forward for a distance, and just as he was worried about himself, a slightly dry and wrinkled palm suddenly came over his shoulder.

"Ahh

Wang Tao was so frightened that he trembled all over, and ran away from the spot for a distance, until he thought it was a safer place, he dared to quickly turn around and look behind him.

When he saw the face of the person behind him clearly, Wang Tao couldn't help but be stunned: "Wang, Wang, Uncle Wang, why could it be you?" ”

What makes Wang Tao quite strange is that Uncle Wang, who was originally very optimistic and talkative, doesn't know how to do it today...
