"Uncle Zhou, maybe we can wait for the rabbit and wait for him to catch the fish, and we will get the stolen goods!"

Since someone proposed so, it is not a solution, after all, there are not a few people with the surname Li.

"Uncle Zhou, why can't you let the people in the village know about this matter?"

Uncle Zhou didn't answer, Jiang Xiaosheng hesitated, could it be that he asked inappropriately?

The old man walked over and said earnestly: "Every industry has its secrets, not to mention our kind of work of dealing with the dead, of course, the less people know about it, the better." ”

He smiled and said, "Young man, you haven't started yet?" ”

After looking at it carefully, he said, "I see that your physique is not suitable for learning Taoism, but you can be a yin walker, hehe." ”

"What the hell is a shade walker?"

"The so-called yin walker is a ghost in the yang world, carrying things to the dead and talking to the living."

Jiang Xiaosheng suddenly realized, "The ghost in the yang world? Sounds like a great position! ”

Yang Mianmian said: "What is this, there is impermanence in the yang world, the yang world-" Before the words could be finished, the old man quickly covered her mouth and stopped her from continuing.

Yang Mianmian seemed to realize something, so she didn't dare to speak again. Although the words are only half spoken, it makes people appetizing, but An Yan listens to these strange names are strange people in the world, and everything that can be met is a noble, and if you can't meet it, don't force it.

This topic was quickly bypassed, Jiang Xiaosheng's proposal to wait for the rabbit was risky, if the other party's cultivation was still shallow, he was fearless, if the other party was a veteran, there was only one result to be found - feeding the fish.

The stalemate was stalemate, and in the end he could only choose a slower method - Uncle Zhou took An Yan and Jiang Xiaosheng to visit the village, and the old man and Yang Mianmian stayed behind to guard, and they could adapt to whatever situation they had, but they should take the safety of life as the standard.

Both sides carried out their own tasks, and Uncle Zhou took the two of them into the village, where every family lived next to each other, but it didn't seem to be lively. What's going on?

Uncle Zhou knocked on the door of a house, only to see that the owner did not respond until a long time later, and it was an old woman who opened the door. The old woman poked her head out and cautiously asked, "Who are you?" ”

An Yan replied: "We are people from other places, and we can't get out of this mountain after passing by here for a while, and the dry food on our bodies is almost consumed, so I want to ask you for some dry food." ”

The old woman looked at them for a long time through the crack in the door, looked at them carefully, and saw that they did not look like bad people, and that she had nothing on them, and said, "Wait." After a while, he shoved a bag of things through the crack in the door and said, "Get your things and get out of here, this is not a good place!" ”

The old woman closed the door, An Yan was holding a bag of dried sweet potatoes in his hand, Uncle Zhou looked around and said, "I'll go over there and take a look, don't walk around!" ”

After a while, it started to rain, and Uncle Zhou hadn't come back yet, and the two of them didn't dare to walk away, so they could only stand under the eaves to hide from the rain, but the rain was getting heavier and heavier.

The old woman was collecting the things in the yard, and suddenly found that there were still people wandering around in the crack of her door.

"Why are you still here?" The old woman opened the door and asked.

An Yan and the others were dumbfounded for a while, not knowing how to answer. The old woman looked at the sky, and the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and she opened the door and invited the two of them to come in and take shelter from it.

When they entered the house, the old woman noticed that one of them seemed to be missing, and asked, "What about one of you?" ”

"He's lost something on the way, go back and look for it!" Jiang Xiaosheng winked at An Yan, who then nodded in accord. The old woman asked no more questions, and told them that the rain had stopped and that they would leave, and then went into the back room.

An Yan and Jiang Xiaosheng sat outside, looking at the dripping rain, a little worried about whether Uncle Zhou had found a place to shelter from the rain.

Suddenly, there was a "clang" sound in the inner room, and the sound interrupted their train of thought, and the two of them hurriedly ran into the house when they heard the sound. When they went into the inner room, they found the old woman lying on the ground, and they helped her up to check on her, but the old woman opened her eyes and muttered, "The man is old and useless!" ”

The old man accidentally fell off the stool in order to take the bottle on the cupboard and injured his waist, Jiang Xiaosheng said: "Mother-in-law, lie down quickly, I am a doctor, I will help you look at your waist." ”

The old man lay on the bed, looked at the young man in front of him, and said, "My grandson is almost the same age as you. ”

Jiang Xiaosheng raised his head and asked, "Where is your grandson?" ”

The old woman was a little sad, "He lives in the city with my son."

"Why don't you stay with them? Are they unwilling? ”

The old woman shook her head and said, "It's me who doesn't want to." My wife and I have lived here for half our lives, and my wife is gone, but I still want to stay and spend the rest of my days guarding this home. As she spoke, perhaps she remembered the past, evoking sweet and sour memories, and the old woman's eyes were full of tears.

An Yan felt that the old woman had lived here for so long, maybe she knew something, and asked, "Why did you keep asking us to leave quickly, is there something going on here?" ”

"Well, strange to say, in recent years people have been missing in the village, especially people from other towns like you," and then she whispered: "The people in the village say that the beasts in the mountains did it, and I see that they have been killed!" ”

An Yan and Jiang Xiaosheng looked at each other, and An Yan asked, "What kind of people are missing?" ”

"Hey, there are all kinds of people, old and young, men and women, even dead people in coffins, even babies in swaddling clothes, but lately he has been eyeing young people. Be careful yourselves! ”

"Do you know who that person is?"

The old man shook his head, "How do I know, but I think there is a family that is very strange, the old Li family who sells fish usually doesn't see him come out, but we can all see him selling fish in the fish market" Thinking of this old man's expression, he suddenly became frightened, "Don't look at his big family, how can the fish be eaten, I take a look at the things in the belly of the fish, it is meat!" And it's not ordinary meat, it's human flesh! ”

An Yan stood up in shock after hearing this, and the old woman continued to complain bitterly: "I have held back these words for a long time, and no one dares to say them, I know that you two are good people, so I told you that all the fish here are no longer eaten!" Our village has become a 'cannibalistic village'.

"How do you know?" Jiang Xiaosheng was surprised.

"I am dissatisfied with you and said that my old man and I met on the battlefield, and I was a hygienist at that time, and there are no dead people in this war, so I see this dead man every day. Even after decades, I will never forget what that dead man smelled like! ”
