I walked out of the inner courtyard, following the flickering candle flame in my hand step by step, the flame reflecting the hideous shape on the wall, and the sharp claws like withered branches were doing strange finger dances.

I stood behind the door and listened, because the bell is hung outside the door, if you want to see it at the moment, you have to open the door, three watches in the middle of the night, I really don't dare to open the courtyard door, although the town has always been very peaceful, but as long as it gets dark, I will be afraid to lie on my own bed, let alone walk outside.

There was a faint sound of footsteps in the alley, farther and farther away—

I'm creepy, there are only me and Song Lingjian at the bottom of this alley, Song Lingjian has never been a visitor, this midnight three watches, who walked to the bottom of the alley and left? Is it male or female? Who to come to? How long has it been here? Why don't you come early and leave late, and leave when I get up and are in the yard?

I listened for a while, but there was no sound, and I was about to turn back, but I heard someone outside suddenly: "Startle me!" ”

I was also taken aback by the sudden sound of such a voice.

Han San's laughing voice, why is he also in the alley? If he came to patrol in the middle of the night, why didn't he report it?

"The person who died in the yayuan was the Aunt Hong who sold tofu." Han Sanxiao's voice was like a ghost, instantly freezing my soul.

What the? Aunt Hong? He's dead?

Song Lingjian's voice then sounded: "No one in the town has anything to do with me. ”

Han San said with a smile: "A dumb woman who sells tofu died in the county official's courtyard before the county official fled, and the family of the county official who fled didn't really escape here, don't you think it's funny?" ”

My cold hairs stand on end, die? Interesting? How could Han Sanxiao describe "death" and "fun" together?

Song Lingjian said: "You went to the yamen to ask for an errand, what did you see?" ”

Han San said with a smile: "I saw a good show, two fat men fought, and only one fat man was left. ”

Song Lingjian said gloomily: "As a result, the remaining fat man hung on the mountain."

"Please do a good job, don't call me for this kind of thing in the future, and don't hit that stupid whistle, I'm not your eleventh."

Song Lingjian smiled coldly: "Stay away from my place, otherwise it may be you who will be poisoned next time." ”

Han San smiled: "It doesn't matter if you're crazy, don't hurt the people around you." I haven't settled the account with you about your broken arrow poisoning my second egg. ”

Song Lingjian said: "If you want him to live a long life, take care of your dog." ”

Two eggs? The little eleven lang brought back by Han Sanxiao is called Erdan? Last time, its mouth was red, and Han San smiled and said that it had eaten the wrong thing, could it be because it had the poisonous arrow of Song Ling's arrow?

Song Lingjian said coldly: "Learn more from the people in this town, and only then can you live a good life." ”

Han San smiled: "The end of life? How many times have I wiped your tail these days? I ran before and after running up the mountains and down the sea, and I was about to die young. I said that you are the reincarnation of the evil star or the reincarnation of the broom, how come there is a corpse where there is you? ”

Song Lingjian didn't speak.

"If it weren't for the hanged ghosts on the mountain for you, I would have eaten fragrant fish and meat at night, and now I can't take care of food and clothing, not to mention, and offended Yan Fei, my food and clothing parents, I don't care, but if you have a little conscience, you will be able to show weakness and intercede this time."

"Get out." Song Ling slammed the door shut.

Han San smiled: "Crazy woman." ”

I was cold and numb to the point where I couldn't move.

Outside the door, Han Sanxiao did not leave immediately, but walked up the courtyard steps, standing quietly outside my courtyard gate, we are only separated by a courtyard wall, I can almost hear his quiet and powerful heartbeat and calm breathing, he must also hear my crazy and trembling heartbeat, and feel the fear that my soul is almost shattering.

But no, he stood for a moment, and touched the dumb bell I hung on the door, and knocked on the door with a small noise.

Then he went down the steps of the courtyard and whispered, "Why is it so quiet in the courtyard this night?" Is that girl still angry with us? After speaking, he suddenly struck the gong and shouted, "The three watches are all asleep, and don't be frightened when you get up at night." ”

My mind went blank, and for the first time I felt so strange to two people who had been eating at the same table for so many years.

It took a long time for my body to come to sense, and I slowly digested Han Sanxiao's words just now.

First, Aunt Hong died.

She died in the county magistrate's courtyard - two fat men fought, only one remained, could it be that the scene I dreamed of was real? The man in the cloak who was plotted by Zhao Mingfu was Aunt Hong?

The second is that the reason why they returned late tonight and did not have the appetite to eat was because they disposed of the corpses on the mountain...... Corpse. No wonder they smell of wet earth mixed with a fishy smell. Corpse? Since there is a corpse, it means that someone is dead. Who died? Why do they say it so lightly, as if they were dead just a few flies hovering over their meals?

Third, Zhao Mingfu is also dead? One of the many corpses they buried in the mountains?

I suddenly felt that this seemed to be a big conspiracy, if the above three points were true, then Zhao Mingfu and Aunt Hong were both instructed to disguise themselves here, and they killed each other because of the failure of the mission, and those who wanted to escape alive still couldn't escape death in the end.

The most terrifying thing is that so many people have died, and their disguised identities have disappeared back and forth for various reasons, and the town can be so calm without any commotion.

Is it true that everyone is too distracted? Or does it not matter at all?

Do I know too much? Could there be someone behind the scenes?

I twisted my legs into the kitchen and went over the tofu tray that had been hanging on the stove a few days ago.

"Horn", the black light blinded, and a pile of things fell from the stove - I took the lamp and shone it, and saw the pallet I was looking for, but it was just such a small panel, and it was actually split in half when it fell on the ground, and I brushed my messy hair to my face, and leaned over to pick it up.

How could the two pieces be so similar in size and thickness, as if they were not broken, but two pieces that were originally evenly separated.

At this time, I saw two big blood-red characters on the side of the fragment facing inside: Little him!

I don't know a lot of words, but these are the basic words, so I'm quite familiar with him, little him?! Why is there a word in this board?

I instinctively looked at another piece of the broken board, and there were two words in it: hearts!

What do you mean?

Didn't Aunt Hong give me this tofu cutting board not so that I could put tofu, but to pass on some news to me?

I compared the two boards over and over again—

The two boards are put together in four words: Watch out for them!

Suddenly, the blood-red words seemed to be much more hideous, and I couldn't hold them like they were on fire, and threw them on the ground.

What do you mean?

Aunt Hong told me to be careful of them - who are they?

There are countless people flashing in my mind, what does Aunt Hong want to prompt? She- why did he leave such a hint? I think back to her intersection with me over the years, rarely talking, but every time I buy tofu, I always give more gifts, and always leave the most tender tofu brain to me, he has always been a man, for so many years a man disguised himself as a woman who was unwilling to speak because of her stuttering, and sold tofu quietly, why?

If my dream is really a reflection of reality, then Zhao Mingfu is in the same group as the man pretending to be Aunt Hong, and they don't know what they are dormant here for, they just want to look at the family at the bottom of the alley.

The house at the bottom of the alley? There are many alleys in this town, and every alley has an alley bottom, and my house is also the bottom of the alley-

How did Han Sanxiao know that Aunt Hong was dead? Why does he still say it's funny?

What is the blood-red arrow in Song Ling's quiver for?

There were many, so many mysteries were twitching in my head, so I picked up the pallet and stuffed it into the cupboard, and ran back to my room.
