"Whoosh!"

Chen Chen moved forward quickly without a trace, and the distance of more than twenty miles was not worth mentioning to Chen Chen. A moment later, the outline of a town appeared in front of me.

The earthen house is a very standard old rural building.

Chen Chen slowed down and walked forward with a flashlight.

The town was quiet, with only the sound of insects chirping, and the doors of every house were closed. This made it a little difficult for Chen Chen to make a move. At this hour, every family must have already fallen asleep, and if there is a knock on the door at this time, you can imagine.

"Boom!" A gong sounded, followed by an old man's throat shouting, "It's dry!" Watch out for the candles! ”

Chen Chen followed the sound and walked quickly, and saw an old man holding a lantern and holding a gong to beat it, and the old man also saw Chen Chen and was stunned for a moment.

Chen Chen opened his mouth and said, "Old man." ”

"Young man, why don't you come home so late?" The old man glanced Chen Chen up and down, then looked at the flashlight he was holding in his hand, and felt novel, "Young man, what are you?" It even glows! ”

Chen Chen shook the flashlight and explained to him under the old man's surprised gaze, "This is called a flashlight, as long as there is electricity, it can shine and illuminate." ”

"It's amazing, Western stuff." The old man muttered in surprise, his eyes inseparable from the flashlight in Chen Chen's hand.

Seeing this, Chen Chen said: "Old man, I just arrived in the town, and the people in the town are also sleeping, and I have no place to live here, I don't know if your home is convenient?" I'll pay for this flashlight. ”

When the old man heard this, he couldn't help but look at Chen Chen twice, he was really red at Chen Chen's flashlight. The light of the flashlight was far from being comparable to the light of the lantern in his hand.

The light from the flashlight was so soft and bright, and the light from the lantern was so bright that sometimes he would fall if he didn't pay attention to it.

The old man hurriedly shook his head, "Young man, no need, your thing called a flashlight must be very expensive, it's okay to stay at the old man's house for one night tonight, the family is wide, and I'm the only one." ”

"Then I'll bother you, uncle." Chen Chen thanked him.

The old man walked forward with his body bent forward, and said with a smile: "It's okay, anyway, the old man, I'm also at home alone." ”

"By the way, uncle, what's your name?" Chen Chen asked, and then introduced himself, "My surname is Chen, and my name is Xingchen." ”

"Young man, just call me Li Bo." The old man nodded at Chen Chen. Chen Chen nodded, holding a flashlight in his hand to illuminate the way.

The sound of insects chirping accompanied by the sound of the old man snorting lasted until midnight.

Follow the old man into his home. Pushing open the door, it is very ordinary, no different from a country home, perhaps more simple.

"Young man, if you are wronged, you can sleep in this room." Li Bodao.

"It's fine." Chen Chen shook his head and walked into the house.

Very simple room, Chen Chen did not dislike it, it is better than sleeping in the wilderness.

Saying goodbye to Li Bo, Chen Chen sat cross-legged on the bed and began to cultivate. Nothing strange happened that night.

Early the next morning, Chen Chen left the flashlight in the room and left.

The morning dew was on the branches and leaves, the slightest white mist drifted in the air, the east had just turned the fish belly white, and as time passed, a hint of red appeared in the white sky.

The early worms have food to eat. The shops in the town are already opening their doors to prepare things for breakfast. Soy milk, fried dough sticks, steamed buns, these are all available.

Chen Chen asked a breakfast shop owner what time it was. Under the surprised gaze of the boss, Chen Chen determined that it was the Republic of China period.

Chen Chen walked down the stone-paved street, looking at the busy crowd, he walked to a breakfast shop and sat down. "Boss, let's have a basket of steamed buns and a bowl of soy milk."

The boss saw Chen Chen sitting down, looked up at Chen Chen, and asked Chen Chen while busy, "Young man, you should be from other places, right?" ”

"Hmm." Chen Chen nodded, "I just arrived at this place yesterday. ”

"No wonder, I've never seen you before." The boss said, turned his head and glanced at Chen Chen again, "Young man, you should come back from the West, look at what you are wearing." ”

Chen Chen looked down at what he was wearing. He wore a casual long-sleeved shirt and a pair of black trousers on the bottom, which in this era could only be seen by the West, and those who returned from studying in the West would wear it like this.

Chen Chen nodded, "Almost." ”

After a while, the boss brought the buns and soy milk that Chen Chen wanted. Chen Chen was eating while asking the boss something.

"Boss, have you ever had anything strange happen here?" Chen Chen took a sip of soy milk and asked.

"Strange things?" The boss seemed to be recalling.

Chen Chen nodded, "Yes, it's something that ordinary people can't understand." ”

The boss stopped what he was doing and said with a smile: "Strange things have happened, we are all looking for Uncle Nine, Uncle Nine is a famous person in our Renjia Town, and he is very good at dealing with these things!" ”

The boss said, his tone revealing a sense of admiration, and the boss continued: "Let's just say that last time, the youngest son of Wang Dafa's family in our town ran into the mountains to play with a few children, and after coming back, he was like a demon. ”

"I shout for blood every day! It's okay during the day, but he gets sick at night, Wang Dafa didn't tell anyone else at first, and secretly took pig blood to his son to drink, and then one night, his son was like a zombie! ”

The boss glanced at Chen Chen when he said this, "Young man, you may not believe it when you come back from the West, but this did happen." ”

Chen Chen nodded, "Boss, you go on." ”

The boss glanced at Chen Chen a few times, and saw that he was interested, so he continued, "Later, Wang Dafa and his son ran out!" And it also bitten the chicken next door to death! This matter couldn't be hidden, and then the people in the town invited Uncle Nine to see it. ”

"Uncle Nine took out the rune paper, burned it to ashes and put it in a bowl of water, and after giving it to the child to drink, he didn't say anything, and then for seven days in a row, every evening he would go to get a bowl of rune paper water for the child to drink, and then the child returned to normal!" The boss said, with a look of admiration, "Uncle Nine has a very high prestige in our town, basically every family will go to Uncle Nine if they have anything strange or sick." ”

The boss continued: "There are still some strange things, I won't tell you slowly, I'm here ......" Before the boss finished speaking, he heard someone calling, "Uncle Yang, it's still the same!" ”

"Okay!" The boss shouted, nodded at Chen Chen, and then went to busy himself.

Now there are more and more people in the town, and they all get up early to work.

Chen Chen lowered his head and ate the buns, thinking about it in his mind, and muttered in a low voice, "Uncle Nine? It can't be the ninth uncle in Mr. Zombie that I just watched, right? Chen Chen muttered jokingly, and suddenly he raised his head, saw something shocking, and his eyes widened......
