Chapter 83: 083: Strange Things After the Wake [1]
I have to say that Zhang Leifeng's mouth was like clockwork when he analyzed the case, but when he wanted to talk to Fan Miaomiao about the requirements today, it was like stammering.
It's as if your mouth can never keep up with your brain.
He stopped, licked his lips with his tongue, then rubbed his hands together, and kept telling himself, "What are you doing?" Hurry up and get back to normal".
Fan Miaomiao couldn't help but laugh when she saw him.
Holding his abdomen with his hands, he smiled and bent over.
"Hahaha, hahaha, Zhang Leifeng, I really haven't seen you like this, you...... Hahaha, I was nervous. ”
Knock knock! Knock knock!
Zhang Leifeng was just about to speak when someone knocked on the door.
He rolled his eyes, got up from the couch, walked to the door, and opened it.
Outside, a man wearing a black jacket and a pair of dark blue slacks underneath stood a man.
Zhang Leifeng glanced at him.
The sharp-beaked monkey gills are suitable to describe the person who came, but he is one meter eight tall and weighs only one hundred and one, and his hair is very dark and dense, but it is a pity that it is a wig. It's late autumn now, but it's not enough to go out in a down jacket, right? And there is also a dark gray cardigan inside the down jacket, which shows that he must have a physical illness.
"I want to ask if Zhang Leifeng is there?" The other party asked weakly.
As he spoke, Zhang Leifeng saw that several of his teeth had been devoured by moths, and there was an unbearable smell of bad breath.
"I am." Zhang Leifeng replied after completing the basic analysis.
There was a hint of surprise when he got the answer, he didn't expect that the legendary detective would be such a young person, he thought it would be an old man.
Zhang Leifeng turned back to the living room, and Fan Miaomiao had already moved to the sofa next to him from the "customer seat".
Looking up at the man still standing in the doorway, he showed a hesitant expression.
"Please come in if you need my help, and bring the door to me if you don't need it." Zhang Leifeng whispered to him.
Hearing this, the man mustered up the courage to step into the room, turned around and closed the door gently.
"Tell me, what are you looking for me?" After he was seated, he went back to the normal process.
The man pulled his skinny hand out of his pocket, the back of which was faintly visible from the needle left by the infusion.
He was organizing the vocabulary just like Zhang Leifeng last night.
Zhang Leifeng has been suppressing his inner impatience and pretending to be very patient and sitting on the sofa.
After about five minutes of silence, the man spoke, "I'm here because I want your help, and it may sound incredible, but it really happened to me. ”
Zhang Leifeng leaned forward: "No matter how incredible this matter is, I just want to hear you say it as it is." His words had become much faster than they had just been. His keen sense of smell had noticed that this was going to be something worth going crazy about, and the excitement in his body gushed out uncontrollably.
"It happened three years ago."
“......”
Three years ago, a terrible thing happened in a remote mountain village.
Ancestor worship ceremonies are held here every year, and this year, as usual, the tributes are prepared in advance, and people from a village gather to worship their ancestors. First, it is to express the nostalgia for the ancestors, and secondly, it is to hope for a good harvest in the coming year.
The elders of the clan led them to carry out the ancestor worship ceremony smoothly.
That night, the elder who had led them to worship their ancestors passed away without knowing what had happened.
After getting the news, everyone rushed over.
The old man was lying on the bed, his mouth wide open, and he looked like he was dying. But his family, including the whole village, knew that he had always been in good health, and he could still be seen working in the fields when he was busy farming. How can a good person suddenly die?
Everyone panicked because of this incident, some said that he may have offended his ancestors, and some said that he may have received retribution because he did not do something right somewhere when worshipping his ancestors.
The incident soon became a big deal throughout the village, and many people were afraid to go out at night.
"No one can know what happened that day."
As the man said this, his body trembled, and he could clearly feel that he was very frightened.
Zhang Leifeng sat there with his eyes squinted, and he didn't speak, he knew that this matter was not enough to make him what he was now, there must be something else.
"In our place, if someone dies, there must be a guardian, and the person who died has only one daughter under his knees, and she does not dare to keep the spirit alone, so she will let us accompany a few of us."
"On the first night, there was nothing, and then the second day there was a sudden gust of wind in the middle of the night, which scared our legs and we all had to rely on each other to strengthen our courage. We thought it was "him" who came back, and nothing happened after that. Three days later the dead were buried, and when we thought it was all over, the two people I was keeping with went crazy overnight. ”
The man's face had turned very pale, and his whole body began to tremble.
Fan Miaomiao, who was on the side, had goosebumps all over her body when she heard this, and she couldn't help leaning towards Zhang Leifeng.
Zhang Leifeng sat there without moving, he knew that what really scared him was about to appear, and he must not be distracted at this time.
Boom!
The man swallowed and foamed. Seeing Zhang Leifeng in front of him so calm, it gave him some courage.
Their mouths kept saying, "He's back, he's back," and one of them jumped off a mountain five days later at night and fell to his death, and the other was taken to the nearest county psychiatric hospital by their parents, and has not yet come out. ”
"What about you?" Zhang Leifeng asked.
"I never believed in such things as demons, ghosts, snakes, and gods, but from his death, to the strange wind that night, and finally the two people who were keeping the vigil with me went crazy for no reason, this series of events made me have to be afraid."
"So you walked out of the mountain village?" Zhang Leifeng said.
The man nodded: "Actually, it's not that I'm leaving, it's that my parents have been persuading me, saying that we must have said something we shouldn't have said when we were keeping, and offended the deceased, so he came to take revenge." ”
"So I left there on the tenth day of the first month of the New Year and went to the county seat alone."
"The result?" Zhang Leifeng continued to ask.
"I thought I would forget all this if I left, but somehow this incident seems to be engraved in my mind, and I always think about it from time to time, and I have nightmares, and I don't dare to walk at night alone, especially in the middle of nowhere."
The man's body trembled a lot better, and it was clear that he had spoken out about the memories he feared most.
