Chapter 3: Burn Yourself
When a person is frightened, the sympathetic nerve in the autonomic nerve will suddenly excite, and through the action of complex neuroendocrine, the whole body will tremble. www.biquge.info The hair is attached to the erector pili muscle at one end of the hair follicle, which is a smooth muscle, and its contraction and relaxation are not governed by people's will.
When the sympathetic nervous system is suddenly excited by fright, the erector pili muscle will involuntarily contract under the action of neuroendocrine, so that the hair will suddenly stand up and appear goosebump-like. This is what we call a cold sweat on the back, and the bones are creepy.
And the villagers who saw the things in the main hall at that time completely expressed this phenomenon vividly and vividly at that moment, and goosebumps fell to the ground.
I saw that in the hall that was not wide, the surroundings were empty, and only a strange stone statue of gray was enshrined in the center. Although this stone statue has a human form, it does not look like a human being. It has small eyes and a sharp mouth, two round ears, a few whiskers, gray and white colors, and at first glance, it looks like a whole enlarged version of a mouse's head!
Moreover, its standing posture is even more bizarre. The guy's jaws were slightly open, his face was shocked, his right hand was slightly bent forward to make a point, and his left arm was tucked behind him as if he was hiding something, and he was fixed there. What's even more bizarre is that at its feet, on the red, blackened dry solid liquid, there are bare dead chickens lying all over the place.
Yes, dead chickens, bare dead chickens.
Without exception, these chickens have lost their feathers and heads. Some chickens have even rotted to reveal broken bones, as well as some maggots that are entangled in clumps and tumbling; There were also some of the newly dead and bright red blood slowly flowing out from the neck of the headless head, slowly covering the dark black blood dirt all over the hall, and the smell of rancid blood was filled.
Originally, it looked good from a distance, although it was a little hideous, but because the hall was dim, it was impossible to see the true face and could not see the dead chickens and blood scale, but it was not very terrifying. But when you take a closer look, it's really frightening. Where are the gods enshrined here, they are simply ****** demons!
"W-What the hell is this?" A villager asked. The other villagers also looked at Qu Weihua with inquiring expressions, and some were even ready to escape.
"Where the am I going?" Qu Weihua scolded angrily, and his heart was extremely panicked. "It's you, come here and smash people's nests first! Look at them one by one, why do you want to run? Do you feel like you've smashed someone's nest and run away? ”
Now the villagers are honest and don't dare to move, and the heart of "sweeping" is gone, they all hang their heads, don't say a word, but their hearts are preparing to escape.
"What's going on?" After a while, another villager opened his mouth and said the problem in everyone's minds.
Qu Weihua took out a box of loose flower cigarettes from his arms, took out one and put it in his mouth to light it, took a puff, looked at the hall, and sighed: "What can I do?" I panicked in vain. I think this thing is weird.,It doesn't have to be a monster or something.,It's a bit like a human thing.,Look at those dead chickens.,It's all headless and hairless.,Who has ever seen a monster that eats only chicken heads and chicken feathers? And looking at this way, it's not just now, I guess it's been some years. It's been so much of a hassle, and it won't be much of a problem this time. Let's go back first, tell the team secretary about this, see what's going on, it's really not hit, let's fight the police to go to the ball! ”
When the villagers heard this, they all nodded hurriedly. Originally, they were all a little scared when they went up the mountain, but only with Qu Weihua taking the lead, and Qu Weihua swatting the weasel to death with a shovel to establish his majesty, they dared to come. Now seeing such a terrifying side, thinking of the looting that seemed to have been smashed here just now, my heart is even more frightened, and I have long had the idea of returning home, and now after listening to Qu Weihua's words, I naturally agree very much.
So Qu Weihua led the villagers down the mountain.
Nothing along the way, long story short. When the villagers descended the mountain and returned to Yuejiagou, the sun was already high in the sky, and it was noon.
After Qu Weihua asked the villagers to keep it a secret for the time being, they did not leak the news of the broken temple on the mountain, and then dispersed and went home. As for himself, he went home and ate two mouthfuls of dry food, so he hurried to the town to find the secretary of the brigade.
The so-called brigade secretary, here I want to explain.
This is a product of the early days of Grandpa Mao, and of course, it is now an endangered creature.
In the past, the so-called administrative village was a natural village, which was divided into several production and operation teams, and the village set up a brigade; Or maybe several small villages are collectively called a production brigade.
At that time, the captain was the deputy village chief level, and the secretary of the village brigade was concurrently served by the village party secretary, some were concurrently served by the team leader, and some were full-time secretaries, and they were at the same level as the team leader.
Another example is my hometown, which is still called ×× Brigade ×× Village. Because of the small village, Yuejiagou naturally belongs to the latter, and like my hometown, it is called a production brigade with several neighboring villages.
Their so-called brigade secretary lives in a town where these neighboring villages meet when necessary. The name of this town is Qilitun, which is a small county seat in the northeast border of Dengfeng City, which is relatively backward.
Qilitun is not called Qilitun because it is seven miles long. In fact, Qilitun is very small, it is a small rural town, but it is close to the market and there is a market. As for why it is called Qilitun, there is a talk here.
According to what I heard, it was the story that happened in the late Qing Dynasty when the barbarians invaded our land of China.
It is said that the Eight-Nation Coalition occupied Kyoto that year, burned, killed and looted, and did all kinds of evil. This frightened the sons and daughters of China, many people, do you think, the old nest has been put on the family, what kind of waves can it turn over?
However, although this Chinese have many vices, they also have many advantages, such as the people of Qilitun at that time, who gave full play to the spirit of "preferring to die and not yielding". Although the Eight-Nation Coalition will not go to the poor land of the Central Plains to make a fuss, this does not prevent the "people's heroes" from tossing.
As soon as they heard that the barbarians from all directions had taken the imperial capital, they were immediately frightened like frightened birds, so they united with villages within a radius of nearly 100 miles and began to build fortresses for defense, hoping to achieve the level of resistance against the barbarian iron cavalry. Who knew that this building was an earthen fortress nearly 50 miles long, which basically surrounded the villages at that time with their backs to Songshan Mountain.
But they didn't know that in the eyes of those empires, they didn't look down on them at all. What's more, those mud fortresses, under the iron cavalry cannonballs of the imperial overlord, are simply not enough to see. The overlords of the empire did not come, otherwise they would have occupied them, and a few mortar shots would have been sufficient.
Of course, at that time, Qilitun had a more resounding name, called Bailibao.
And this Baili Fort was not completely built in vain, I heard that in the War of Resistance Against Japan, this small fortress really made a lot of contributions, blocking a lot of bullets and guns for the Kuomintang and the Red Army. It's just that after all, it couldn't withstand the bombardment of shells, and almost all of them were blown up, leaving a small earthen fortress of less than seven miles.
But this mound, which is less than seven miles, saved many people at that time. Therefore, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the people who lived under this earthen fortress called themselves "Qilitun" people. That is, the current Qilitun.
And the secretary of this brigade is the descendant of the person who was saved by "Qilitun".
His name is Cai Jiling, and he is a sturdy old man with a sixtieth armor. used to be a member of the Red Guards, and he also criticized the landlords, fought gods and ghosts, and had a lot of power in climbing branches and leaves, but later it seemed that he offended his superiors because of his style, so he was rectified and became the secretary of the brigade in this town.
But some people say that he provoked dirty things because of fighting gods and ghosts, so he had to retire as a last resort.
As for which one is true and which one is false, I don't know. Of course, this has nothing to do with the story I'm talking about, so I won't show it here.
The book is back to business, and it is said that when Qu Weihua came to the house of Cai Jiling, the secretary of the brigade, because of panic and doubts, it was already two or three o'clock, and it happened that Cai Jiling's relatives got married, and he was not at home when he went to drink wine, and his wife died prematurely, and his children were not at home, so he could only squat at the door of Cai Jiling's house and be anxious. It wasn't until sunset that Cai Jiling came back drunk.
When Qu Weihua saw that he was back, he hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and turned his politeness with a warm greeting. And Cai Jiling, as the secretary of the brigade, knows almost all the people in Fangyuan Village, and naturally knows Qu Weihua, the head of the small village of Yuejiagou. I politely opened the door and invited into the house.
The two entered the house, and Cai Jiling also saw Qu Weihua's anxious look on his face, so he got down to business: "I said Xiao Qu, do you have something to do with this time?"
Qu Weihua was very anxious in his heart, and as soon as he heard about the business, he hurriedly told him in detail about the deployment of thieves, chasing chickens up the mountain, and breaking into the broken temple this morning, especially the strange stone statues and strange dead chickens, and then asked Cai Jiling: "Branch secretary, you are always well-informed, what are you talking about?" Isn't it really a demon or something? ”
When Cai Jiling heard this, the wine came up, slapped the table with a "snap", and laughed angrily: "Net nonsense!" Are there any monsters and ghosts in this world? I think when I followed Chairman Mao, it was to defeat all the ghosts, snakes, and gods, why haven't I seen them?! You have to remember that the power of the people is the greatest! Don't say that he doesn't have a ghost, even if he does, we can destroy him! ”
When Qu Weihua heard this, he nodded yes again and again, and then asked, "What do you think of the book?"
"This thing is really strange, I don't believe in any bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods, but what you said is so mysterious, I think eighty percent of them are chicken thieves deliberately out to scare!" Cai Jiling rubbed his temples and said. "That's it, you go back first, I've drunk some wine today and I'm a little dizzy, I'll go to Kai Village tomorrow morning to see the place I said, right?"
When Qu Weihua heard this, he could only do this for the time being, so he said goodbye to Cai Jiling and rushed home, but in his heart there were fifteen buckets of water - seven up and eight down. Although Cai Jiling said in this book, it was not a ghost, but he was still afraid in his heart, after all, the broken temple was too weird. But if you think about it, you have no other choice, so you can only go home first and wait for Cai Jiling to come tomorrow. Thinking like this, Qu Weihua quickened his pace and hurried home.
By this time, the night had already fallen. A few stars dotted the night sky. A bright moon shines on the earth.
Qu Weihua walked alone on the country road, and from time to time there were a few insect chirpings in his ears, and there was a gust of wind blowing dead leaves.
Somehow, Qu Weihua suddenly felt as if someone was following him behind him, and the sound of the wind seemed to be mixed with faint footsteps.
He felt something, looked back, and saw that there was nothing in the barren field, and even the sound of insects and wind suddenly disappeared, leaving Qu Weihua standing alone on the side of the road, panting, looking at the quiet four fields.
He turned and walked on, but there was another sound of footsteps, and he turned back, still empty. Walking again, it sounded again, turned back, and there was nothing.
So many times, Qu Weihua wiped his face a little tremblingly, looked around the empty four fields again, cursed, and turned around to continue walking home, but his steps unconsciously quickened his pace.
Seeing that he was about to get home, there was the sound of footsteps mixed with the sound of the wind behind him, and the sound was getting closer and closer.
Now Qu Weihua was scared in his heart, he didn't look back, but he walked faster, walking on the road just onto the road, close to Yuejiagou, he was about to run towards Yuejiagou, but when he looked up, he saw that in the dark night and under the moonlight, a black shadow swayed towards him......
