Chapter 18: The Ghost Calls

"Ahem!"

A cough broke the silence, and Blackie relaxed, and the scar on my shoulder returned to normal.

"Who?"

I turned around, and an orange light spilled over me, and it was an old man half-hunched.

The old man walked very slowly, holding an oil lamp in his left hand and his right hand behind his back, and he was about to cough when he took two steps.

I lowered my flashlight, stared at the old man for a while, recognized it, and asked, "Is it Uncle Huang?" ”

"It's me, you're it?"

The old man paused, lifted the oil lamp upward, and looked at me with squinted eyes.

"I'm Gu Bei, and I came here with my grandmother eight years ago." I said.

"Oh!"

The old man suddenly realized and said, "It's Xiaobei, why did you come here?" ”

"My friend is stuck here, I'm looking for him." I looked at the old yellow head thoughtfully.

Lao Huangtou is the village chief of Baoan Village, and he invited his grandmother back then, so it stands to reason that he should have left, why is he still here?

I looked closely, there was a shadow under the oil lamp, although my face was a little worse, but there were no obvious patches, although my steps were slow, but I didn't walk on tiptoe, I should be a living person.

"Your friend is here for an adventure, isn't he?" The old yellow man asked guessingly.

"You know?" I asked.

"In the past few years, most of the people who have come here have been exploring, and some have flashlights and are running around the village, and I have seen a lot."

Speaking of this, the old yellow head was not depressed.

"Have you seen my friend?" I immediately pulled out my phone and pulled up a picture of the fat man.

"I've seen it!"

The old yellow head leaned over and looked at me for a while, then looked at me again and said, "Come with me, I'll take you to him." ”

"Thank you!" I breathed a sigh of relief that with an acquaintance, things were much easier.

"The old Zhang family left five years ago, and the old Dou family left six years ago."

The old yellow head led the way in front, and every time he passed a house, he had to nag a few words.

"Uncle Huang, everyone in the village is gone, why are you still here?" I asked tentatively.

"I'm old, and I'm not used to life in the city." The old yellow head coughed twice, paused, turned his head sideways at me and said, "Besides, I'm leaving, who will take care of the ancestral tomb in the village?" ”

After speaking, he turned around and muttered in a low voice: "I don't know what's wrong, the grave grass has grown faster and faster over the years, and some old guys always complain to me, saying that the grass in front of the door is not clean." ”

These words made me pause, and I looked at the old yellow head again.

He is a lonely old man, what does he rely on to live in the village, he can't carry it on his shoulders or carry it in his hands.

Besides, after so many years, there are at least twenty or thirty missing and dead people in the village, why is he okay?

I have heard a lot of legends about Baoan Village over the years, but I have never heard of it, and the old yellow head is still in the village.

"It's here!"

At this moment, the old yellow head stopped, raised the oil lamp, and pointed to a house in front of him.

I shone it with a flashlight, and the house was made of bricks and tiles, and the courtyard walls made of hedges were covered with all kinds of climbing plants, and the gate was open, and I could faintly see that there was light in the house.

I'm still observing, the old yellow head has already entered the hospital, he is still like that, holding an oil lamp in one hand and behind his back with the other, and said as he walked: "I'm in, let's disperse!" ”

As he spoke, there was a pop in the room, as if something had fallen to the ground.

I hurried up to follow, but before I could reach the door, there was a thud on the door, and someone slammed it open, and a man staggered out.

"Fatty!"

When I saw that person, I was overjoyed and relieved.

The old yellow head stepped out of his place and stood aside with his eyes squinted, the oil lamp slightly forward, and the orange light shrouded the fat man in it.

"Brother?"

The fat man shook his head and looked up at me with a look of surprise.

"Dead fat!"

I cursed, walked up quickly, picked him up, and immediately noticed that there was a distinct red mark on the fat man's neck.

"Brother!" The fat man was sure it was me and took me in his arms.

"Xiaobei, let's leave if you find it!" The slightly hoarse voice of the old yellow head interrupted me and the fat man.

"Uncle Huang, I understand!" I smiled sideways, no matter what the old yellow man was, he didn't hurt me, he helped me, look at the fat man's appearance, if I showed up a little later, he might die here.

"Can't go!"

The fat man was anxious and shouted, "I still have friends in the village!" ”

The old yellow man's face suddenly sank, and he said, "Xiaobei, don't blame the uncle for talking too much, the village is restless." ”

"Brother, I really can't go, my girlfriend is still in the village!" The fat man was anxious when he saw this.

"When did you have a girlfriend?" I'm a little confused, fat guys can mess up with me.

"I've been chasing for a while!" The fat man hurriedly said.

I gritted my teeth, squeezed out a smile at the old yellow head, and asked, "Uncle Huang, can you help me find it?" ”

The old yellow head looked at me gloomily, and said in a dumb voice: "Xiaobei, you must know that I will help you for your grandmother's sake!" ”

Speaking of which, it is already clear that it is impossible for the old yellow head to help me find someone again.

"Thank you!"

I bowed to the old yellow head and said, "Uncle Huang, I can't leave for the time being, and when I find a friend, I'll leave immediately." ”

"You're doing it yourself!"

The old yellow head looked at me deeply, carried the oil lamp, leaned over, and walked away slowly.

When the last bit of dim light disappeared in front of me, I immediately became angry: "What's the matter with you? Didn't I tell you that I wouldn't let you come to the security village? Running this bubble girl, do you have a pit in your brain? ”

"Brother, why don't you teach me a lesson when you go back, let's go find Ling'er quickly!" The fat man begged with a sad face.

"Fuck you!" I longed to die of the fat man, nodded his head, and asked, "Say, what's the matter?" ”

"Ling'er is a student of the Normal Academy, isn't this weekend? I thought about taking her out to play, and she also liked things like spirits, and when I mentioned the ghost village, she said she wanted to come with me. The fat man said one by one.

Ling'er's name is Song Ling'er, a junior at the Normal School, and she is also a fan of the fat man's live broadcast room.

This weekend, I went to the ghost village with the fat man to visit the spirit.

The fat man was already so good, the beauty was in front, he showed off, and played the dish fairy in the ghost village, but he almost played himself to death.

"Okay, fatty, I'll be able to get grass powder!" I gave a thumbs up, and I was convinced.

"Brother, don't talk about me, let's find someone quickly!" The fat man said with a sad face.

"Tell me, where did you play the Saucer? Where did you separate from that Song Ling'er! I didn't give the fat man a good face, and said coldly.

"Playing Saucer Fairy was played in a haunted house, and then something happened, I ran away with Ling'er, I ran here, and I couldn't run out!"

The fat man pointed to the house behind him.

The haunted house refers to the house where the family of four hanged, the one I went to in the first place, and my scalp was tingling there.

I'm convinced, the fat man is a good hand even in the dead world.

I let out a sigh of relief, calmed down, and shone a flashlight into the room.

It was very empty inside, and there was a stool in the center, and on top of the stool, where the light bulb was hung, a rope sleeve hung down, and the red mark on the fat man's neck should have come from.

"Where's the peachwood sword I gave you?" I glanced at the fat man's neck, but I didn't see anything but red marks, and the peachwood sword was gone.

"I'll give it to Ling'er!" The fat man said sullenly.

"It's okay, I know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade!" I was sarcastic, and I agreed in my heart, the fat man is a bit responsible, with the peachwood sword, Song Ling'er should be able to hold out for a while.

"Brother, don't make fun of me!" The fat man stomped his feet in a hurry.

"I'll know I'm in a hurry!"

I gave him a kick and pulled out a wooden box from my pocket, which opened it was a palm-sized glass bottle soaked in two willow leaves with dew picked during the Qingming Festival.

Opening the glass bottle, I took out the willow leaf, wiped my eyes, handed it to the fat man, and asked, "Will it be used?" ”

"Yes, yes!" The fat man nodded repeatedly.

Willow leaves wipe the eyes, you can see ghosts, but there is a sequelae, which lasts for a long time, and after the effect disappears, it is much more sensitive than normal people.

The last time I wiped my eyes with willow leaves, it took nearly half a year for me to recover.

It doesn't matter now, there's the woman on her back, and hell it's a matter of minutes.

After wiping my eyes, I searched the house and found nothing.

"Brother, where are you going now?" The fat man followed behind me.

"Go to the haunted house!" I said.

On the way, the fat man said about the situation when he played the disc fairy, and there was nothing wrong at first, he was playing live while playing, broadcasting and broadcasting, and found that the barrage was wrong, and he asked something, and the barrage answered something.

Song Ling'er was very excited at first, but gradually the barrage was wrong, the screen was black at first, and then the barrage turned into blood characters.

"I asked Ling'er not to let go, the more Ling'er played, the more scared she became, she let go, screaming and rushing out, I went to chase her, and then she was separated."

The fat man said with some chagrin, "Later, I vaguely saw Ling'er running to the room just now, rushing in and being hit, and almost hanged." ”

"By the way, why didn't you answer the phone call later?" I suddenly remembered something and asked.

"Call, you didn't call me!" The fat man paused.

"Didn't call me?" I stared into the fat man's eyes and asked, "Are you sure?" ”

"Brother, I really didn't call you!"

The fat man swore a curse: "I lost my phone in a haunted house, and I don't have time to call you." I wonder why you're here! ”

"Who called me then?" I asked.

I talked to the fat man on the phone more than once, and not only that, he also sent me two WeChat messages.

If it wasn't for the fat man who called me, then the matter would be in trouble, someone deliberately brought me here.

"I don't know!" The fat man shook his head in confusion.

"Okay, no matter who fights, since they led me here, they will always show up!" I shook my head, took out the black skin, thought about it, took out two more talismans, handed them to the fat man, and said, "Keep it for self-defense." ”

"There's someone over there!"

At this moment, Chen Xi spoke.

Only then did I notice that this was the first time she had spoken since coming to the security village.

Following the direction of her finger, a team appeared on the loess road in the village, slowly walking out.
