Chapter 012: Chen Mo is trapped
I ran a long way in one go, and soon left the water dragon canal. I don't know what happened after that, I just know that I'm leaving, I'm going now! I'm not going to check anything, I'm going to go far. This Xiwang Village, this mysterious village, I never want to come back again, and I will never come back!
Farewell, Xiwang Village.
I ran to the entrance of the village and came to the Shuikou Bridge. I didn't keep running, I couldn't help but turn around and look. The water dragon canal was thrown far away by me, and I could vaguely see a little green smoke coming from the water dragon canal.
"Alas, goodbye, Grandma. Goodbye, Xiwang Village. I said silently, and turned to leave.
"Xiao Yuan."
As soon as I turned around, I heard Chen Lin's voice, and she walked in front of me to block my way.
"Why are you holding me back?" I asked her, "I'll go now, go far." ”
"If you leave like this, how can you be worthy of my brother and Brother Lin Hai?" Chen Lin said to me mysteriously, full of dissatisfaction and anger between her words, "My brother and Brother Lin Hai have mistaken you. ”
I don't understand what Chen Lin means, it's obvious that Chen Mo and Lin Hai broke the appointment, why did it become that I don't talk about integrity? From yesterday morning until now, Chen Mo and Lin Hai have not shown up, what have I done to be sorry for them? Why am I mistaken by them.
At this time, I was in a bad mood, and I didn't want to listen to Chen Lin's unreasonable trouble, so I pushed Chen Lin away and said, "I'm afraid I mistook them, right?" It's a shame that we are still good brothers who play well, but we retreat at a critical time. Yesterday, it was your brother who told me to quit, hmph, don't blame me for everything! ”
Chen Lin was stunned by what I said, standing still and motionless. At this time, the tractor connecting Xiwang Village and the town had already come to pick up the passengers and stopped on the side of the road.
I walked towards the tractor, and Chen Lin shouted behind me: "Xiaoyuan, if what I want to say is that my brother, Brother Lin Hai, your uncle and aunt, your grandfather, and all the villagers of Xiwang Village are waiting for you to save them, will you still leave?" ”
When I heard this, I was stunned and didn't come back to my senses for a long time.
I turned around and asked her, "Didn't they hate me all the time?" Why are they waiting for me to save them? You're really good at telling jokes, too. "I don't believe Chen Lin's words, and if the villagers of Xiwang Village don't reject me, it's even more difficult than getting the Japanese prime minister to stop visiting the Yasukuni Shrine.
I ignored Chen Lin and prepared to get in the car.
Chen Lin came over and grabbed me, she used all her strength to not let me go.
A little girl wants to trap me, it's impossible! I just struggled slightly, and Chen Lin was thrown to the ground by me.
I said, "Chen Lin, you go back and tell your brother and Lin Hai, I won't come back in this life!" Let them behave for themselves. I took a breath of cold air, and knew in my heart that it was too desperate, and softened my tone, "I don't want to hurt them." Chen Zhen is right, this village is too evil, if you have the opportunity to leave, let's leave. ”
"But now if you leave, you're really hurting them!" Chen Lin retorted desperately, her hand rubbed on the ground when she fell to the ground, and a lot of blood bleed, but Chen Lin didn't seem to feel pain.
I have always been pitiful and cherished, not to mention that Chen Lin is Chen Mo's sister, and she is also half of my relatives, I took out toilet paper from my pocket, helped Chen Lin up, and wiped the blood stains and sand on Chen Lin's hands.
Chen Lin persuaded me: "Xiaoyuan! Brother Yuan - You just listen to me and go back with me, right? All right? ”
My mind was shaken, Chen Lin was so patient to let me go back, it didn't look like a joke, and he was willing to get hurt, I'm afraid something really happened, right?
I asked her, "Is something wrong?" ”
"Something is wrong! Something big is going on in the village. She replied to me.
"What the hell is going on?" I'm going to get to the bottom of it.
She shook her head and said, "I don't know either." After my father came back yesterday, he beat and scolded my brother like a different person. He seemed to know something, and the next day he locked my brother in his room, and I finally had a good time talking to him. I was going to look for you, but my dad found out before I could go out, and I was locked up. My mobile phone was also confiscated by my father, and I took advantage of your grandmother's difficulty to come out. As soon as I came out, I saw you running out of the village, and I was worried about you, so I came with me. ”
"Then have you contacted Lin Hai?" I asked her.
"Brother Lin Hai?" Her words were full of worry and resentment, "I don't know, he hasn't contacted us since he came home yesterday, I really don't know how he's doing now." ”
I thought, something must have happened! Chen Weiguo has such a good temper, he has never beaten and scolded Chen Mo for more than 20 years. Last night, he beat and scolded Chen Mo, Chen Weiguo's temper has changed so much, there must be something wrong with him.
I decided not to leave, I wanted to go back to Xiwang Village with Chen Lin to find out. After all, Chen Mo and Lin Hai were all in trouble because of me, and I can't put them in danger all the time.
"I'll go back with you," I said, "but whatever happens next, you'll have to follow me, and you can't lose it." You can't ask me why I do anything, or I won't go back with you. ”
Although Chen Lin didn't understand my words very much and felt that I was mysterious, she finally nodded with hesitation. I walked back with Chen Lin.
Along the way, I learned a general situation from Chen Lin. The night before yesterday, after Chen Weiguo returned home, it was as if he had suddenly changed as a person, and he kept venting on the pots and pots at home. All of a sudden, the only porcelain bowl in the house was smashed by Chen Weiguo.
Chen Mo and Chen Lin, who were just lying on the bed, were awakened by Chen Weiguo's abnormal behavior. After Chen Mo got up, he wanted to stop Chen Weiguo, but he didn't want to be punched and kicked by Chen Weiguo. Chen Mo didn't dare to fight back, after all, it was his father who beat him, and it was natural for a father to beat his son in the countryside. Chen Mo had no choice but to protect his head and try to make the damage he suffered a little lower.
After Chen Weiguo was angry with Chen Mo for a while, his eyes turned to Chen Lin, who was frightened on the side, and he actually did something wrong to Chen Lin. How could Chen Mo let such an indecent thing happen, he desperately grabbed Chen Weiguo, Chen Lin fled back to the room, and locked the door to survive.
And Chen Weiguo and Chen Lin fled, so they dispelled this idea, counted Chen Mo again, and asked Chen Mo to promise to be honest in the future, not to go out and cause trouble, so he scolded and went back to his room to sleep. Chen Mo returned to the room with pain, but he couldn't sleep. The next day, he got up early, and was about to open the door but couldn't open it, and the door was locked by Chen Weiguo in the back!
Chen Lin was frightened by what happened the night before, and she couldn't come back to her senses for a long time. It wasn't until I heard the music of my grandmother's funeral that I came out quietly. The first thing she found was Chen Mo, and Chen Mo was trapped by Chen Weiguo at this time and there was nothing she could do, so she thought of me. As soon as she went out, she saw me running away, so she chased after me and asked me to go back with her to his brother.
I listened to Chen Lin's detailed description, and estimated that Chen Weiguo might have fallen into an evil spirit at night, otherwise he would not have suddenly changed his temperament, even his own son and daughter.
As we passed by Chen Tianding's house, we heard a voice calling to me. I knew that the old ghost who was trapped in Chen Tianding's house had something to tell me, and I was worried that Chen Lin would be frightened, so I asked Chen Lin to stay still and wait for me to come back. And I strode to the iron gate, and saw the fluffy, messy, dirty old ghost kneeling on the ground.
"Old ghost, what are you doing in broad daylight now?" I asked him, "Do you want to be gone?" ”
The old ghost said in a pitiful tone: "Ma Daochang, now that Xiwang Village is about to change, have you found out my identity for me to check?" I'm afraid that if it's too late, I'll never be able to give birth. ”
"Your identity?" I replied, "Unfortunately, I haven't found it yet." No clue at all. You don't know anything about your own birth date, and you don't know who your surname is, so it's hard for me to help you find your identity! ”
When the old ghost heard this, he howled and begged, "Ma Dao Chief, you can save me!" You promised me that you would help me find my identity. You must have a way! ”
Unfortunately, I really can't help it. I suspected that he was Lao Chentou, but when I saw that Lao Chentou was still living at home, I naturally denied my suspicions. Since this old ghost is not Lao Chen, who is he? Nameless, homeless, and incoherent, could it be that he was not from Xiwang Village during his lifetime?
"Xiao Yuan, are you alright?" Chen Lin, who was not far away, was calling me.
I replied, "Okay, I'll be here soon." While stabilizing Chen Lin, I said to the old ghost, "Old ghost, I still have important things to do now, and you delay it in advance." ”
"Ma Dao Chief, this can't be delayed!" The old ghost's words were a little anxious, "If it drags on any longer, I will really never be able to live forever!" ”
"Eternal life shall not be superborn?" I wondered, "It's not so mysterious, is it?" It's just one day and one night. ”
"I'm afraid, I won't survive a day and a night." The old ghost's words were a little helpless.
"What's wrong? Someone is coming to collect debts? I asked, "You're all dead, and your creditors are still coming to you?" ”
The old ghost said: "I'm afraid this is more terrifying than the creditor's debt collection." ”
I didn't bother to pay attention to the old ghost, and turned away.
Seeing that I hadn't solved his problem, the old ghost suddenly turned into a powerful ghost and said angrily, "If you don't help me, I'll take your life." The old ghost said, his two hands suddenly extended, trying to choke my throat through the iron door, but as soon as his hand touched the iron door, he retracted, and the old ghost rolled on the ground, in pain.
"What's going on?" I wasn't surprised by the old ghost's sudden defection, but became interested in the strange iron gate.
The old ghost said: "This house is buried in the four directions of the southeast, north, west, and north of the house, and the artifact has been buried, as long as I touch the wall or the iron gate, the spiritual power will drop by one percent." I don't have much spiritual power now, and if I delay it any longer, I'm afraid that my soul will be scattered and I won't be able to live forever. ”
"That's all?" I shrugged, "If you don't have enough spiritual power, I'll give you some money to go to Lao Li's store on Huangquan Road to buy some." Why can't you get along with me and with this iron gate? ”
The old ghost said: "I'm afraid it's not just a matter of spiritual power now, but also" The old ghost said this, he was startled, and disappeared in front of my eyes in an instant.
"Old ghost, you're not done yet, why do you have to ask me to help you find your identity immediately?"
The old ghost seemed to have disappeared at this time, and there was no sound.
"This old ghost, it really hurts." I muttered to myself.
"Xiaoyuan, hurry up." Chen Lin urged me over there again, "Otherwise, it will be too late for my father to come back." ”
"Alright, alright." I replied to her, turned around and walked to her side, and went back to her house with her to save Chen Mo.
