In the silence of the night, a dog barked suddenly.

Different from the barking in the middle of the night, when someone is close to their home and gives an early warning, this dog barking is not high-pitched, it is more like discovering something terrible, not daring to bark, but under the stimulation of fear, it can't help but make a sound, similar to wailing, full of fear and uneasiness.

The voice didn't sound far away, so I quickly made out that it was from Pan Kaibao's house, which was diagonally behind my house.

My house is built on the side of the road on the small road of Lijiazhai, the land is basically a paddy field of Pan Kaibao's family, my father used a larger field elsewhere, and changed the house to build after adding money, thirty or forty meters away from the right obliquely, above the two narrow vegetable fields, is the family of Pan Kaibao's three brothers, and then the past few families of the sparse Lala are the Pan family Dazhai.

As soon as he was calming down and about to listen carefully to the movement, a few more uneasy whimperes came again, and at the same time there was a rustling, as if the wind was blowing the branches.

I got up lightly, went to the window, and pulled the curtain open a little bit to look out.

From the window of my grandfather's bedroom, I could just see the wooden warehouse on the east side of the courtyard of Pan Kanbao's house, and there were street lamps more than ten meters away, and I could only see some outlines vaguely.

The whole night, I didn't hear any dog barking, it was past one o'clock in the morning, and suddenly there was a dog barking, and it barked so badly, which is absolutely abnormal.

When I looked towards Pan Kaibao's house, I had summoned the Twelve Yuanchen, but I couldn't see anything, and the whimpering sound of his dog gradually weakened until it disappeared.

Just when I didn't notice anything and was about to lower the curtains, "Click! A crisp sound that seemed to be the breaking of a branch suddenly came from a few fruit trees behind Pan Kaibao's house, and at the same time, the whimpering sound that had disappeared also sounded again in the kennel under the wooden barn, trembling and uneasy, sounding completely frightened, and chilling.

I hurriedly reopened the curtains a little, but I still didn't find anything, and behind Pan Kaibao's house, there was no sign of any broken branches falling to the ground.

The wails of cats and dogs full of fear began to sound one after another, and began to spread like waves to Panjiazhai.

"Dog thing! Not again! Grandpa woke up at some point, his eyes wide open, and his expression was not angry.

After a few seconds, he turned over and looked at me and said, "Lin Lin, come and sleep, don't look at it, I'm afraid of people, I can't see it." ”

There are only two sentences before and after, but they are two completely different tones and demeanors, one represents the grandfather of the past, and the other is his present.

Grandpa is an old carpenter who understands Lubanshu, and he has experienced no less things, and when he was in his prime, he was famous in several neighboring counties, but the hero also had a twilight time, and the movement outside just now did wake him up instantly when he couldn't rub sand in his eyes, but soon, he was replaced by him now.

Now that Grandpa had woken up, it was even more impossible to go out again, so he had to wait for the sound of movement to fade away, then lower the curtains and go back to bed.

I was trying to take advantage of the opportunity when my grandfather woke up and couldn't sleep for a while, so I chatted and found out some useful news, but I heard him turn over and say a little slurred: "Go to sleep, Xiao Nian, don't be afraid when you fall asleep, your mother has told me not to tell you this, saying that I don't want you to get into trouble, so don't ask." ”

I couldn't help but smile wryly, and sure enough, I guessed correctly, my parents didn't want me to go home and touch these things.

But...... They won't let me touch it, so can I really just not touch it and pretend I don't know anything?

Do you just let the situation go on like this, like everyone else, retreat back to your home at night, and when the New Year is approaching, the young people who are working and studying outside are all back, and everyone is also together, and they go back to their respective homes as soon as it gets dark, and even during the New Year's Day, there is no one who goes to each other's doors?

I don't know what about other people, anyway, I'm not used to it, and I can't accept that my hometown is occupied by shady things, and I ride on everyone's head as a prestige.

Not to mention anything else, just after the second day of the Lunar New Year, Yuan Jinzhu's slut followed Sister Yun and them, and I couldn't accept the ridicule when I found out that this was the case in my hometown.

"I still have to do the ideological work of my parents as soon as possible, so that they can agree with me to solve this matter......"

Once I had an idea, I stopped thinking about it so much, put away all the miscellaneous thoughts in my head, closed my eyes and began to sleep again.

After falling asleep again unconsciously, I had a strange dream.

In the dream, two people who don't seem to be our "Xiaren Village" are running wildly in the Pan's village, shouting for help, with frightened expressions, and behind them is a black that covers the sky and the sun, darker than the night, and everywhere they go, they are engulfed by this palpitating black, and they can't see their five fingers, as if an invisible terrifying giant beast is chasing behind, trying to eat them in one bite.

The rain was so heavy that it was as black as ink, and in the blink of an eye, it covered all the colors of the heavens and the earth, and painted it extremely black. The clothes, heads, faces, necks, and everything exposed to the ink rain were also painted black, as if they had just been fished out of the ink, and only two eyes remained, shining with extreme horror in the darkness.

The two of them shouted all the way, ran down the Pan's village, and after running on the highway for a while, they jumped from a distance of about 30 meters from my house.

Below the highway was a gentle farmland, and the two men rushed down the ridge path in a panic, and when they reached the embankment, a terrible white hand suddenly came out of the ground, grabbed the right foot of one of them, and caused him to stumble and pounce on the other man, and the two of them rolled down the embankment less than half a meter together, and fell on the grass on the bank of the river.

As soon as they struggled to get up, the terrifying black chased after them, engulfing the two of them in an instant, and continued to spread forward......

It wasn't until I was suddenly heard the sound of a terrible siren in the darkness that I woke up from the darkness.

I opened my eyes a little tiredly, and after a few seconds of trance, I realized that it was already dawn outside the window, and my grandfather had already gotten up, and there was a lot of noise outside, and the sound of sirens seemed to puncture people's eardrums.

Sirens?

I sat up from the bed like an electric shock, and after two seconds of stupefaction, I rolled over and got out of bed, and without caring about the galoshes, I stepped on the cold floor, opened the door and rushed to the corridor, opened the curtain and opened the window, and leaned out to look out.

I saw that the side of the road was already full of people, and on the road about 30 meters away from my house, there were six police cars with police lights parked, and one had just arrived, and before I had time to turn off the siren, under the roadbed, on the ridge road leading to the river, there were policemen everywhere, and several policemen were maintaining order on the road.

I chuckled and rushed back to my room.
