There was an inexplicable familiarity to the voice.

I trembled, woke up directly, jumped up, flashlight and looked around the house, except for Uncle Niu who was at the door, there was no one else in the house.

Uncle Niu was woken up by my flashlight, "What's wrong with the sweat in your head?" ”

"There was a ...... just now," I swallowed again, and said casually, "A mouse ran past my feet and woke me up." ”

Uncle Niu seems to be hiding a lot from me, and I can't be honest with him.

He didn't ask any more questions, but seeing that it was already dark, he took me to Xincun.

Xincun is said to be a village, but the scale is already comparable to a small town, there are restaurants, shops, and a small family hotel in the east of the village.

Walking around the village, I said to Uncle Niu: "Let's go to the innkeeper to talk to him, he has thick and long lips, a slightly pointed chin, thin ears, and many textures. ”

Uncle Niu nodded, lit a cigarette for the innkeeper with a smile, and talked to him.

After smoking a cigarette, he had already called the innkeeper a brother.

"Big brother, your old village is so barren? I passed by yesterday and took a look, it's all good land, why don't you grow some food or something? Uncle Niu pretended to ask casually.

The innkeeper said: "The land was bought by Yu Yang, and it was originally intended to be developed, but after so many years, there has been no movement. ”

I glanced at Uncle Niu, and there was solemnity in my eyes.

Uncle Niu changed his smiling face again in an instant, and talked to the innkeeper, and finally inquired about the situation outside the country.

Yu Yang's parents didn't have him when he was five years old, no one on either side of the relatives was willing to raise him, he grew up eating hundreds of meals in the village, went out to work when he was fifteen years old, and had his own company at the age of twenty-three, and then the company became bigger and bigger, and became a wealthy businessman.

Uncle Niu said in surprise: "Then this is strange, didn't Yu Yang's parents disappear when he was five years old?" Why did the news report his father's death a few years ago? I remember he had a big funeral. ”

The innkeeper spat out a cigarette, smashed his mouth and said: "That's his godfather who knows him outside, or he is a poor boy who graduated from elementary school, where would he get the money to start a company?" Speaking of which, he is also a kind-hearted and ruthless person, and the funeral is grand, but do you know where he buried people? ”

Uncle Niu and I shook our heads in unison.

"On the halfway point of the West Mountain next to the old village, the grave is not erected, and he has been buried for so many years, and he has not come back to sweep the grave and make offerings, and his godfather is also unlucky and recognizes a white-eyed wolf." The innkeeper pouted.

It turned out that the grave I dug with Uncle Niu belonged to Yu Yang's godfather.

The innkeeper didn't know what Yu Yang's godfather looked like, and he couldn't find it on the Internet, and he couldn't be sure that the person in the black-and-white photo was Yu Yang's godfather for a while.

The more I thought about it, the more worried I became.

On the way back to the room, Uncle Niu patted his thigh and said, "Go to the cemetery tonight, call the soul in the coffin, and you will find out when you ask." ”

It dawned on me, and this was a good idea.

Thinking of a way, Uncle Niu and I immediately went back to the room to make up for sleep, slipped to the old village when it was about to get dark, and waited until ten o'clock to quietly go up to the West Mountain.

This time, Uncle Niu seemed to be in a real way, placing offerings in front of the tombstone, lighting a candle every nine steps from the tombstone, and laying paper money between the candles.

He said it was a trick to the end.

Before it was laid, he ran to the back of the grave and put on a posture and said to me, "Stand far away, don't disturb the yin people by making a noise." ”

I nodded hurriedly and hid away.

Uncle Niu pinched the yellow talisman in his right hand and said loudly: "Taishang's edict, return quickly!" ”
