Chapter 81: Night Talk
I didn't have much time to ponder, and the man had already pulled me into the house.
The woman's movements were very quick, and after such a while, the dishes and chopsticks had been served, and a plate of peanuts was placed, and there was a sizzling sound of oil in the pot.
To be honest, I can't see through these two people, to say that they are ghosts, but the force from the arm just now is not fake, if it is a human being, I don't believe it.
I didn't dare to eat what they gave, so I shirked and said: "Big brother, I don't want to eat and drink for nothing, I have wine in the car, I'll get it!" ”
"You little brother, you're quite polite, go ahead. When you come back, your sister-in-law's food will be almost there! The man waved his hand and said with a smile.
I nodded to him and turned around to go out, I didn't dare to eat his things, but I still dared to eat my own.
Back in the car. I took out a bottle of wine, a few more bags of lo-mei, and headed back.
When she entered the house, the woman just took the dish out of the pot.
"Come, little brother!" The man beckoned to me and said enthusiastically, "No outsiders have come to the village for many years." Gotta drink today! ”
"Big brother, I don't understand what you're saying, don't outsiders never come to the village?" I opened the wine and filled it for the man, the talisman in the cuff ready to be typed.
"It's not that I won't come, the last time was seven years ago!" The man thought for a moment, and smiled at me, and there was an inexplicable meaning in the smile.
After speaking, he raised his glass, touched it with me, and said, "Come, do one, since you are here, you will be a family in the future!" ”
"Family?" I paused and looked at the man puzzled.
"Yes, family!" The man said meaningfully.
"Bell!"
Just then, a piercing gong sounded outside.
The man's face changed, and he hurriedly said: "Turn off the lights, silence!" ”
As soon as the voice fell, the lights went out.
I have a question mark in my head, what is this messing with?
"Don't make a sound!"
A pair of large hands quietly grabbed my arm, and the voice of the man's voice was also heard at the same time.
"Bell!"
The second gong sounded, and the man let go of me, rushed to the window, staring out, his fists clenched subconsciously, and his body trembled involuntarily.
The woman was next to the man, holding the man's arm with both hands, her head resting on the man's shoulder, her eyes closed, and her body trembling slightly.
I couldn't understand the state of the two, so I quietly came to the window and looked out.
The path at the foot of the mountain, which had been pitch black, now had a little light.
The point of light is from far to near, and every time it moves a certain distance, it is the sound of a gong.
As the distance got closer, I could see clearly that it was two people.
The one who walks in front carries a white lantern, and the one who walks in the back holds a gong.
The steps of the two seemed to have been measured, and each step was the same distance, and every ten steps were struck by a gong.
Judging from the dress of the two people, they look like paper people, with bright red vests and melon skin hats, and red lips and white faces, they are not human at first glance.
Soon. The two men came to my car, and they walked straight over as if they didn't see me.
As the two disappeared from sight, the man's nervousness eased a little.
After waiting for a while, the two walked back again, and the man's emotions became tense again, and it was not until the two of them disappeared from sight again that the man completely relaxed.
I moved closer to him and asked, "Big brother, what's going on?" ”
"It's nothing, daily patrols!"
The man smiled reluctantly and said, "Let's talk while drinking!" ”
I nodded and walked with him to the table.
"Brother, brother won't hide it from you, since you're in, don't think about going out!"
With the touch of the wine glass, the man opened the conversation.
The man's name is Zhang Liang, and the woman's name is Wang Ying, and they are old residents of Panjia Village.
"Where do you start?"
Taking a sip of wine, the man fell into deep thought, thought for a while, and said, "Let's start with the origin of Panjia Village!" ”
The boundary of Panjia Village was originally a barren mountain, during the puppet Manchukuo. There is a group of bandits who set up a village here, the bandit leader's surname is Pan, and his nickname is Pan Tiedan, which is also the origin of the name of Panjia Village.
said that it was a bandit, but Pan Tie had never robbed anyone since he set up a stockade in this area. Relying on this mountain and some wasteland, he lived a small life.
Later, Little Japan was defeated and the puppet Manchukuo was destroyed, and Pan Tie dared to lead the people in the village to vote for the government and become obedient people. The village was turned into a village, and the village was named Panjia Village.
When the man said this, I clinked my glass, took another sip of wine, closed my eyes and enjoyed it for a while, before saying, "It's been a long time since I've drunk such a good wine!" ”
"Brother Zhang. I still have a few bottles in the car, I'll get them for you later! I said with a smile.
"No need, it's been a long time, you keep it for yourself!" Zhang Liang waved his hand and began to speak again.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, life was okay. Twenty years ago, one night, a sudden fog fell, and when the fog cleared, they found that they could no longer get out.
"Can't get out. What is the meaning? I asked.
Zhang Liang stared at me for a while, and said with a smile: "Let's put it this way, this realm is like a mirror, we are all trapped in the mirror, it's easy to get in, and we want to get out." It's harder than climbing to the sky! ”
"After so many years, it's not that outsiders have come in, after they came in, they wanted to go out with all their hearts, all kinds of tosses, and finally they all died!" Zhang Liang stared into my eyes and said. As if warning me.
"Can't get out?" I asked.
"I really can't get out, if you don't believe it, you'll know when it's dawn!" Zhang Liang said with a smile.
"I want to know now!" I said word for word.
"No way!"
Zhang Liang immediately became nervous, grabbed my hand, and said to Nunu outside, "Didn't you see those two night watchmen just now?" If they catch you, you will surely die! ”
"Night Watchman?" I looked at him quizzically. It means that I don't understand.
"Yes, that's a ghost, if they catch you, you'll die!" Zhang Liang's eyes showed a bloodshot, "This is the rule set at the beginning, after twelve o'clock at night, you are not allowed to go out, and the violator will die!" ”
I looked at him for a while, suddenly smiled, pinched the glass and took a sip of wine, and looked at Zhang Liang lightly.
"Brother, what are you laughing at. I'm not kidding you, you're really going to die if you go out! Zhang Liang felt that I was laughing at him, paused his cup, and said: "Over the years, most of the people in the village have some skills, but what happened in the end. It's not dead yet! ”
I smiled and said, "Brother Zhang, you are not sincere! ”
"Why am I not being honest?" Zhang Liang asked with red eyes.
"Why did Panjia Village become like this, didn't you say, you can't suddenly come to a heavy fog and become what it is now, right?" I said, staring into his eyes.
"Who the knows what's going on. After all these years, you think I don't want to know the truth? Zhang Liang suddenly became angry.
I ignored him, he must be lying.
As the saying goes, dogs can't change their.
Let the bandits who have robbed half their lives farm from good farming, or in this kind of mountain nest, I don't think it's possible.
Especially in those troubled times. If you have a gun, you are the king of grass, why doesn't Pan Tie dare not do business without capital, and come over to farm!
In a place like Panjia Village, there is not much land at all, and relying on the land, there is not much to feed many people at all.
If you can eat meat, who will eat bran vegetables!
But Zhang Liang doesn't say it, it's still a long time, I want to see what's going on here!
The next drink was very unpleasant, and we didn't say a few words, and went back to our rooms to sleep.
Lying on the kang, I couldn't fall asleep over and over, but I didn't go outside either, and it was still a long time, so I couldn't take that risk.
Zhang Liang invited me to his house, with the obvious intention that there were fewer and fewer people in the village. It's always good to have someone to keep you company.
As for how the ghosts came to be, and how the rules were set, he didn't say.
Thinking about it, I fell asleep unconsciously.
When I woke up, it was already dawn.
Although it was bright, the sky was overcast. You can't see the sun.
I got up and went to the ground, Wang Ying was cooking breakfast on the fire, and when she saw me coming out, she said hello to me.
I nodded to her, called out to my sister-in-law, and looked out.
In the courtyard, Zhang Liang was washing his face.
Not far away, on the trail, in front of my van, there were a few curious villagers.
