Volume 5 The Curse of the Old Village_Chapter 325 The Feeling of Trust
I was in a hurry, and subconsciously pulled the white cloth off my face and looked into the room.
As a result, after the man sneered, he did not stay in the house, but turned around and walked towards the door.
By the time I looked over, the man had already walked to the door, and I saw only a faint back. The back is very thin, and the silhouette of the body looks like Xu Meilu.
I shook my head, this must be my mistake, Xu Meilu and Xu Changhe are in a gang, if she found out that I was here, she would have pulled me out a long time ago.
Could it be that she went out to report to Xu Changhe and them?
My heart hung in the air, but when she went out, she didn't say much, and the group had been standing outside.
This just confused me. Now I kind of understand why I subconsciously feel that these lying corpses are far less terrifying than those of the villagers. Because of the villagers in the mountain guards, what they show on the surface is often used to cover up their hearts. You'll never know what's going on in their minds.
And such people are often the most terrifying.
The people who guard the mountain are like this, what they do on the surface, and what they contact with me in private, are two completely different people.
At this time, I listened attentively, and there was a conversation between Xu Changhe and others and Wang Po outside.
Xu Changhe asked: "Grandma Wang, what are you doing in the village when you don't guard Yizhuang recently?" ”
Wang Po sneered: "Old woman, I am also a person who guards the mountain, and I have been guarding this Yizhuang for decades, and one day I will guard it until I am lying there, I can't go out and have a look?" Why don't you change the patriarch to guard it? ”
Xu Changhe laughed twice and didn't answer.
Xu Errat asked in the back: "Mrs. Wang, did you see that kid from the Li family running over?" ”
Wang Po was stunned: "The Li family boy? Is someone from the Li family coming? So, did my Yizhuang really keep to the end? Where is he ......?"
Xu Meilu's voice: "Don't rub around here, that kid may have run back." Let's go to where he lives now, maybe we can block him. ”
Xu Changhe said: "No, the rules of the mountain master can't be broken, and we can't go into the house." Since there is no one here, let's go to another place to see, Wang Po, and guard your Yizhuang well. It's about our whole village. ”
As he spoke, the footsteps of Xu Changhe and the others gradually walked away.
I heard a knock at the door, and it was supposed to be the princess who had walked in.
I didn't know the details of the princess, so I quickly covered the white cloth again. The heart said that if there was any change, I would rush out, and I guess an old woman would not be able to help me.
The sound of Wang Po's footsteps was very soft, and she moved little by little, until I stopped at the head of my bed.
Before I could react, Wang Po sneered: "Boy, come out." This bed is the bed that my wife slept in, thanks to the gang who didn't notice this, otherwise they would have found you out earlier. ”
I was excited, and it turned out that this empty bed was slept by the princess. Good fellow, this old lady is bold enough to sleep in the middle of these dried corpses every day without fear.
I was told that I had to do it myself
The sheets were lifted and he sat up from the bed.
At the head of the bed stood an old woman, as I had seen in the daytime, with unkempt white hair, hunched over, on crutches, and in tattered clothes, and covered with colorful patches. At this time, they were staring at me with a pair of eyes.
Her body looked very weak, but the look in these eyes was very sharp. Even I could see two rays of light coming out of her eyes. It seemed to be able to see through my heart, which was daunting.
I didn't dare to make eye contact with her, so I quickly looked to the side.
As a result, I saw the dried corpse that I had lifted the sheet again, and I couldn't help but shudder again.
Wang Po spoke at this time: "What? The grandson of Shoushan, is he so timid? A corpse is also afraid? ”
He ...... His chest ...... "I pointed to the chest of the dried corpse, and I could still see it, rising and falling slightly.
Not only that, but when I looked at the other corpses, the chests of the corpses covered with sheets, I could see the sheets rising and falling slightly. Apparently the corpses here are like this, how can they breathe?
"Don't worry. They were all dead, but the corpse qi in their bodies was sealed inside. Now their corpse is just a skin, and the corpse qi is swimming in it, and you can naturally see the chest moving. Wang Po explained.
"Why do you want to seal the corpse qi in your body?"
"So many corpses, if the corpse gas is released. These corpses will not disperse outside the village, they will all gather in the village, so are the people in the village still alive? ”
Wang Po patiently explained to me, and from her tone, she could give me a sense of security and trust.
Wang Po gave me a completely different feeling from that Xu Meilu, Xu Meilu looked kind, but her performance was aimed at me everywhere, and her approach was completely inconsistent with her face. And Wang Po is different, although she doesn't look good, whether it is the tone of her speech or the feeling she gives people, it will make you believe her from the bottom of your heart.
It's a feeling that can only be understood and cannot be expressed, and this feeling, I have.
Wang Po continued: "I am safe here now, as long as you return to your residence before dawn tomorrow." They don't dare to come into your yard, so as long as you don't admit that you came out, it's fine. ”
"But...... Seniors, among them, it seems that some of them know that I have come out and are hiding here. "I didn't know what to call Wang Po, so I called my predecessor according to the title of the rivers and lakes.
Wang Po waved her hand: "I am not a few years old from your grandfather, you can just call me Grandma Wang." Those people are not in harmony with each other, and they have their own hearts, as long as you don't let the five of them find out together, they should be fine. ”
"Oh, Grandma Wang, why is it that everyone in this village is surnamed Xu, but your surname is Wang? Are there any people with foreign surnames in this village? ”
Knowing that I was safe now, I was no longer nervous, so I raised all the questions in my heart.
Wang Po pointed to the corpses: "It's not because of this, where would the people of the Xu family do such dirty work." This is also the reason why they can still give me some face, without me, no one to take care of these corpses, I am afraid that something big will happen. ”
I
Thinking of the dried corpse monkey in the Buddhist shrine at the door, I knew that this caring for the corpse was easy to say, but in fact there must be many doorways and sayings.
Wang Po took out a few steamed buns from the basket and handed them to me: "Are you hungry?" They invite you to eat as little as possible. ”
I really let Wang Po say, I don't eat as few meals as possible, but I can't eat them at all. The gang began to eat, and like the wind and clouds, the fat man and I couldn't eat even a quarter of the full at each meal.
