After hearing the ringing of the mobile phone, I desperately picked up the mobile phone and looked at the call record, and it was my dad who called.

My dad?

How did he come up with the idea to call me?

However, I still quickly picked up the phone, but after answering it, there was no sound on the other end of the phone, I fed it several times and no one answered, and it didn't take long for the phone to be hung up.

I took a deep breath, turned my phone mode to a flashlight, and fumbled with the afterglow of the flashlight to light all the remaining candles.

It made me feel better when the room was lit up again, and I was relieved that the feeling of being stared at all the time had dissipated.

Looking at the furnace that had been extinguished, he bowed to the old woman's last photo, and continued to burn paper money, but the fear in his heart never dissipated, not that I didn't want to go out, I was afraid that I would provoke something if I acted rashly now, since nothing happened in this mourning hall now, it means that it is safe for the time being, besides, even if there is really any danger, it is useless for me to go out.

Well, I'll admit, I was so scared that I didn't dare go out at all.

Fortunately, the next thing was very stable, and those dogs stopped barking, as if the brief moment just now didn't exist at all, and nothing happened in the second half of the night, until Xiaoxiao Jiang Xiaoshi came to take over.

Jiang Xiaoshi arrived at the mourning hall and was startled when she saw me, "Brother, what's wrong with you?" The face is so ugly. ”

I don't want to scare Jiang Xiaoshi, a little girl, it's better to live in peace of mind and the unknown, so I smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just that I haven't stayed up all night for too long, and I almost can't stay up all night." ”

"Oh, then you hurry up and go to dinner, go to bed after eating, and leave it to me during the day." Jiang Xiaoshi said sensibly.

I nodded, reached out and touched her head, and went home to eat the breakfast she had prepared for me.

After a mouthful of hot porridge in his stomach, the fear in his heart slowly dissipated, and his body was not so stiff, but his hands were still shaking.

That's when my brain started to function properly.

By the way, my dad seems to have called me last night, and I'll call him again.

I was just about to call him, only to find out that yesterday because of nervousness, the flashlight was turned on overnight, and the phone was out of battery for a long time, so I had no choice but to take out the charger and start charging.

I couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep.

After all, I was tense all night last night, and this suddenly relaxed, and the sleepiness naturally came back.

After falling asleep, I had a very strange dream.

There was a voice in my dream that kept calling me, one moment it was my mother's voice, one moment it was the voice of my first love when I was in high school, another moment it was the voice of my wife, and the voice of Jiang Xiaoshi.

I began to follow the direction of the sound, but everywhere I saw it was blood red, and no matter how I walked, there was a boundless blood red all around!

Then a voice sounded behind me, and I turned my head and saw Xiuxiu in a red bridesmaid dress!

Her already beautiful face was rotting now, and her body was also rotten flesh in the east and west, and I could even see snow-white maggots wriggling in some wounds.

"Why don't you save me!"

"Huh?" I was stunned for a moment, and just as I wanted to answer, Xiuxiu rushed directly to me, stretched out her hand and grabbed my neck, and I couldn't breathe all of a sudden.

"Why don't you stop them! Why! ”

"Why!"

"Why!"

The voice was sharper and sharper each time, and I felt that it was getting harder and harder to breathe because of the choking of my neck!

"All to death!"

"You're all going to die!"

Xiuxiu stared at me deadly, and those eyes seemed to contain hatred like an ocean!

As soon as I was about to suffocate, I sat up sharply and realized that I was dreaming.

I couldn't believe it and reached out and touched my neck, was it a dream just now?

If it's a dream, it's too real!

I slowed down in bed for a while, and then I felt my breath go up.

I wiped my forehead, and it was covered with sweat.

The current situation is already very weird, I suspect that the dream just now is not accidental, there must be some meaning in it, but I think about it for a while and I can't figure out what meaning can be in it except to scare me and make me feel more guilty.

At this time, I found that it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, and my stomach was also hungry, so I hurriedly got up.

Jiang Xiaoshi, this little girl, is still quite sensible, she actually knows to make me lunch, although it is a little cold, but it can still be eaten, and I also walked towards the mourning hall after eating.

After a busy day, this little girl should be tired.

As I walked and looked at the villagers walking past me one after another, I suddenly realized that something was wrong yesterday.

That's right, it's the villagers!

These villagers, now seem to be puppets, there is no life at all, their behavior is as if they have been realized, they just follow the script!

After thinking about this, I studied them more closely, and it seemed that this was indeed the case, they were very numb, and you could see it in their eyes.

Even if I called them, it took them a long time to react to me, but when they did, they seemed to wake up suddenly, and they used a quick reaction to talk to me.

It's just so weird!

After arriving at the mourning hall, Jiang Xiaoshi came up with some fear and hugged my arm, and said, "Brother, let's go, get out of here!" ”

"Get out of here?" I was stunned for a moment, I didn't know why Jiang Xiaoshi suddenly had this thought, "Your grandmother's first seven years haven't been guarded yet, why do you suddenly want to leave here!" ”

"I don't know, I don't know!" As she spoke, Jiang Xiaoshi cried anxiously, "There is a voice in my heart that keeps saying, hurry up, hurry up, if you don't leave, you won't have a chance to leave!" ”

I frowned, to be honest, in the past two days, I also have this thought in my heart, I took a deep breath, and said, "Then I'll organize the others, let's go together!" ”

"No, no one else in this village can leave except us, and if we don't leave, we may not even be able to leave!" Jiang Xiaoshi said anxiously.

I was stunned for a moment, and looked at Jiang Xiaoshi, I thought she should know something, obviously she also noticed that something was wrong with the villagers, "Do you know something?" Did your grandmother tell you anything? ”

Jiang Xiaoshi shook her head desperately, "Grandma won't let me say it, she said that she can't tell you until we leave, you can't say it before that, Brother Jiang Liu, let's go!" ”

I didn't know what to say, I stood still, a little unmoving.

Walk? Doesn't that mean abandoning the rest of the village? I can't do this kind of thing.

Just when I hesitated, my phone rang again, I took out my phone and looked at it, it was my mother calling, I quickly picked it up, "Hey, Mom, what's wrong?" ”

"What's wrong, you called me and your dad yesterday to come back, we're back now, and you're not at home, where are you?" My mother's voice came from the other end of the phone.

I was stunned for a moment, when did I call my parents to come back? It's so dangerous here, how could I possibly let them come back?

Wrong!

I remembered that inexplicable phone call my dad made to me last night, I guess there was something wrong there!

Just when I was confused, my dad's voice came from the other end, "Boy, where are you?" ”

"Oooh, I'll be right back!" There were some things that I couldn't explain clearly on the phone for a while, so I thought about it and went home first.

Seeing that I was going home, Jiang Xiaoshi hurriedly came up and grabbed the corner of my clothes, and whispered, "Brother, do you want to go home?" Shall I go with you! ”

I looked back at the picture of the old woman in the mourning hall, and thought about it, in the current situation, it was indeed not good to keep her a little girl here, so I added some money charcoal to the stove and took her home.

When I went out, I also realized that something was wrong, because there were many more people in the village that I didn't usually see, originally there were only two or three hundred people in our village, but now there are twice as many people as before!
