This scene scared me, and the match I was holding in my hand fell to the ground.

"What's wrong with you?"

Situ Xiaozhu was also frightened by me, and she looked at me with a trembling voice and said.

"Yes...... There was an old man, or an old lady, running through the window. ”

I said quickly, I felt that the speed of the black shadow just now could be described as running, but this is also what makes me a little puzzled, what is he running? Is it passing by? Still hiding from something.

I sensed something was wrong, so I slowly walked towards the window.

Situ Xiaozhu grabbed my hand and followed me closely.

I tiptoed and held my breath to look in the direction of the window, for I was terrified that a horrible human face would suddenly appear from the window, and it would have scared me to death.

However, fortunately, such a thing did not happen, it was quiet outside the window, which seemed normal, however, I saw a note stuck in the latticework of the window.

I looked around, then carefully took the note.

When opened, a line of writing was written on the slip of paper with a brush.

"In the middle of the night, under the big locust tree, escape alive, not to be seen."

Although it was only 16 words shortened, this note rekindled my hope, the big locust tree written on it should be the one we saw when we entered the village, and the most attractive thing to me was the four words "escape", which should indicate that we have the hope of escaping.

"What time is midnight?"

Situ Xiaozhu asked in a whisper beside me.

I only realized a problem at this time, if we come here, and the power bank thing is Situ Xiaozhu's ghost, then she should stop me from leaving, let her know that this matter is absolutely no good, maybe she will get in the way.

So, I thought about it and said.

"Twelve o'clock."

Actually, I know very well that the sub-hour refers to the time from 11 o'clock in the night to 1 o'clock in the morning of the next day, and the time displayed by the old-fashioned grandfather clock on the wall is now more than 10:40 at night, and I will have to find a time to sneak out quietly.

To be honest, I've been dreaming of heroes saving beauty all night, hoping to make Situ Xiaozhu have a good impression of me, and then something indescribable happens, and in fact, things are also developing like this, Situ Xiaozhu seems to have begun to rely on me a little, but the scene in the package just now made me completely give up these thoughts.

So, I let go of Situ Xiaozhu's hand and sat on the chair.

Then, I saw a little white stuff peeking out of the matchbox that had just been dropped, and I quickly picked it up quietly.

Fortunately, Situ Xiaozhu didn't have this detail in mind.

She seemed to be puzzled by the sudden change in her attitude towards me, and I saw that she sat down on the other side of the chair with some trepidation, and in the middle of the two chairs was a small table, on which was placed a tall pot and cup, and I could smell the peculiar fragrance of "epiphany wine".

"I'm going to go to the bathroom."

I thought about it, and then broke the somewhat awkward silence.

It's obviously impossible to open the note in front of Situ Xiaozhu to read the contents, so I have to create a chance for myself.

"I'll go with you."

Seeing me stand up, Situ Xiaozhu also stood up immediately.

This makes me a little painful, and she has to follow her when she goes to the toilet, does she already realize that I want to go to the big locust tree alone to make an appointment?

"I'm afraid!"

Situ Xiaozhu lowered her head and whispered, I saw that her ears had turned red, I guess she felt very ashamed to say such things.

I grabbed the matchbox in my hand and finally nodded.

"Okay, that's together."

Situ Xiaozhu breathed a sigh of relief, and then the two of us walked out one after the other.

"That...... That, I know you like me, actually...... Actually, I also like you a little, I know that you played this game for me, and I also know that the 'Rainy Night Bashan' is you, so I called you ......"

As he walked, Situ Xiaozhu whispered.

I thought to myself, did you tell me to come to this hellish place to die?

However, I didn't dare say that on the surface, I just sighed and said.

"Hey! Let's hope we can get out of this hellish place soon. ”

After I finished speaking, Situ Xiaozhu stopped talking, not knowing what he was thinking.

On both sides of the courtyard are wings, but I didn't see a toilet when I looked at it, but I saw a bathtub in the west wing, which should be a place to take a bath.

We had no choice but to go to the backyard.

The backyard is the same as the front, it is also overgrown with weeds and very dilapidated, and the outside of the backyard wall is a tall willow tree, people often say, "Don't plant mulberry in the front, don't plant willows in the back, and don't plant ghosts in the yard to clap your hands" because these trees are all trees that attract ghosts and raise ghosts, but this village is unusual, and these trees can be found everywhere.

As a result, there was no toilet in the backyard, so I had to say embarrassedly to Situ Xiaozhu.

"Well, can you turn around and let me shush?"

Situ Xiaozhu's face immediately turned red, she quickly lowered her head and turned around, and I took it out and released it.

At the same time, I quickly opened the matchbox and took out the note, which was also written with a brush, so that I could see it clearly in the bright moonlight.

"Don't trust anyone, especially the elderly and children."

This time, the font is much better than the previous one, and I guess most of it was written by women.

"Old people and children?"

I took the note and thought about it.

Isn't the person who just gave me a note asking me to meet under the big locust tree an old man? Could it be that there is something wrong with the elderly and children in the village?

But who left this note?

One more thing is that this note should have been left in advance, and most of it was not left for me, unless the person who left the note can be sure that I will live in this courtyard and be the one who lights the candles.

Could it be Biluo?

The only one who can roughly compound the conditions is Biluo, because the yard of this red belly pocket is arranged by her.

But why would she do it?

Help us? So why not just let us go? Or is there something unspeakable, I feel that this matter seems more complicated than I thought.

"That...... You, you're done, aren't you? ”

Situ Xiaozhu's voice suddenly came, and I realized that I had run out of peeing, so I quickly put away the note, put on my pants and said.

"Alright."

Then, Situ Xiaozhu whispered.

"Well, I want to go take a shower, can you help me keep watch outside?"

I nodded quickly.

Situ Xiaozhu immediately smiled, I guess she was the same as me, she was scared into a cold sweat when she escaped twice, and she was very uncomfortable at the moment.

There was no window in the west wing, and there was a candle inside, so I helped Situ Xiaozhu light the candle, and then withdrew, and soon I heard the sound of water inside.

The candlelight peeked through the crack in the door, and I knew I could feast my eyes on it, but I didn't.

I'm not a decent man, but I'm not an indecent person either.

At this moment, I am thinking about which of these two notes should I believe.

Eventually, the temptation to leave prevailed, and I quietly left the door of the West Wing and slipped out of the courtyard.

It was now very close to the hour, so there was no one in the village anymore, and even the bonfires in the square had been extinguished.

Walking quietly on the road in such a quiet mountain village makes people feel creepy, and I feel my heart "plopping" and "plopping", which also makes me more and more eager to escape from here.

I wasn't familiar with the roads in the village, so I had to walk in the direction of the big locust tree, but fortunately the village was not big, so it didn't take much time to get there.

However, I walked around the base of the big locust tree and didn't see anyone waiting for me.

"Am I too early?"

I muttered to myself, and then subconsciously put one arm on the trunk of the tree, and then I trembled with fright, because I felt that the locust tree was moving, not moving, but like a pulse, I took two steps back in fright and looked at the trunk of the old locust tree.

"Is this locust tree a good one? How does it feel like there are blood vessels. ”

I muttered to myself, and slowly crept over to see if there were really blood vessels on the tree.

However, at this moment, I suddenly saw a person walking from not far away, a man with a rickety figure and a somewhat heavy step.

I was stunned when I saw this person, because I felt that this figure was very familiar, and it should be someone I knew.
