I pressed the lock screen button, the phone screen did not have any response, the backlight of the phone was still on, be careful that Zhang Kun's four words have been on the phone.

I pressed the lock screen button a few more times to no avail, and then I found that the shutdown button was also out of order, and finally I buckled the phone board and the screen went out. But it was at this time that I remembered what Shopkeeper Hong told me when he left. No matter what happens, the pharmacy must open at twelve o'clock in the evening, and I still remember the shopkeeper's serious expression.

Zhang Kun did everything possible to let me not stay in the medicine fragrance shop, was it out of kindness or for other purposes? Who sent me that text message? Thinking of this, I quickly installed the electric board and called back the anonymous number that sent the text message, but there was a reminder that it was not in the service area. I call back the number every half hour, but it keeps telling me that it's not in the service area.

Later, the more I thought about it, the more strange it became, Zhang Kun was my college friend, how could he harm me? But who sent me such a text message to tell me to be careful of Zhang Kun?

I felt that it was necessary to go to Zhang Kun's hometown to understand things clearly, so I bought some fruits in the city, took a taxi and went straight to Zhang Kun's hometown.

Before the car entered the village, I heard a crying sound from a distance, I had been to Zhang Kun's house before, so I heard the sound from the Zhang family ancestral hall.

I asked the driver to drive the car in, but the driver said that he would not go in at all, and seemed to be very evasive. I had no choice but to get out of the car at the entrance of the village, carry the fruit and go to Zhang Kun's house. The fastest, the newer, the newest

The door of Zhang Kun's house was closed, two white candles were lit in front of the door, and a pair of couplets were also pasted on both sides of the door.

Does Zhang Kun's family have a funeral? Thinking of this, my heart suddenly twitched, and an ominous premonition lingered in my heart, pressing me out of breath.

I knocked on a few doors, but when no one opened, I found Zhang Kun's neighbor. When Zhang Kun's neighbor heard that I was looking for Zhang Kun, he looked at me strangely, and then said: You are looking for Zhang Kun, go to the ancestral hall to find him!

I said thank you, and walked towards the ancestral hall of the Zhang family with the fruit, and along the way I saw several families with green couplets. Those who did not have green couplets closed their doors, scissors and other things to ward off evil spirits hung on the doors, and some even had yellow charms attached to them.

Along the way, I rarely saw people, and occasionally I saw a few people wearing white mourning clothes with solemn expressions.

When I came to the Zhang Family Ancestral Hall, I was stunned, outside the Zhang Family Ancestral Hall, there were thirteen pairs of big red coffins on the long bench. In front of each coffin is a black and white photo, including Zhang Kun's photo!

After seeing the black and white photo in front of the big red coffin, the fruit in my hand fell to the ground, which immediately attracted countless eyes.

Brother Cheng, why are you here? A voice of surprise rang in my ears, and a boy who looked like a high school student walked up to me.

The boy is Zhang Kun's younger brother, Zhang Xin. I've been to their house before, so he knows me. I looked at Zhang Kun's black-and-white photos and said hesitantly: This is your brother

Hearing my words, Zhang Xin's face was full of sadness, and he said: My brother took a car into the city with the people in the village last night when the car fell into the Black Mountain Lake, unfortunately woo woo! Speaking of this, Zhang Xin sobbed and didn't say anything more.

I found out that Zhang Xin was wearing a black yarn on his arm, Zhang Kun had left yesterday, so who was the person who drank with me this morning? Am I really daylight?

Seeing that I didn't speak, Zhang Xin sighed softly and said in a low voice: Brother Cheng, if you have nothing to do, go back early, the village is not clean these days, don't get into any trouble

I asked Zhang Xin what was going on, and Zhang Xin said that when the twelve people were transported back, the whole village was filled with a strange fragrance, which almost every household could smell, but they couldn't find the source of the fragrance

I vaguely felt that the strange fragrance that Zhang Xin said might be the bellflower incense I sold from the pharmacy yesterday, but this is just my guess, and I don't know if it's accurate.

According to the customs of the countryside, I gave Zhang Xin a funeral of 200 yuan and left.

When I went back, I was enveloped in a deep mystery, and I was drinking with Zhang Kun this morning. Why did he die? Who is the person who sent me an anonymous text message and told me to be careful of Zhang Kun?

I didn't tell Zhang Xin that I saw his brother's incident, after all, it didn't do me any good to talk about it.

When I got back to the city, I didn't go back to the pharmacy, but went to a nearby hotel to rest and began to think about what had happened today. First the people in the barber shop talked to me a lot, saying that I was too lazy to work in the pharmacy, and then Zhang Kun tried to persuade me to leave the pharmacy, and then I received an anonymous text message from Zhang Kun, and then Zhang Xin told me that his brother was dead.

The sky was getting darker, and it was getting closer and closer to twelve o'clock, and there was a problem in front of me, that is, should I go to work at the medicine shop?

Zhang Kun tried his best to tell me not to go to work, and the anonymous text message told me to be careful of Zhang Kun, then I definitely can't listen to Zhang Kun, I have to go to work at night. But when I was in the barbershop, those cold words still echoed in my mind, they couldn't say that I didn't want to die for no reason, there must be something wrong with the medicine shop.

In the end, I made a bold decision to work my last shift at the medicine incense shop tonight, and I will resign from Hong Gang immediately after tonight, even if I go home to farm, I will no longer do this business.

Back at the incense shop, I rested in my room for a while, and saw that the time was almost twelve o'clock before I was ready to get up. It was the moment I stood up that the wall clock rang outside.

Hearing the twelve bells, my heart beat rapidly, and I consciously looked at my phone. The time on the phone was five minutes before twelve o'clock. And the wall clock outside has begun to tell the time.

I thought there was something wrong with the wall clock outside, and I looked at my watch again, but it was okay not to look at it, and my heart jumped violently when I saw it. The time displayed on the watch at this moment has also passed twelve o'clock.

Hong Gang once warned me that no matter what happened, the pharmacy should open on time. But now twelve o'clock is past twelve, and I'm still sitting in my room.

I rushed out of the room and opened the door to the pharmacy. As soon as I opened the door, a cool breeze rushed in, causing goosebumps to rise all over my body. It was dark outside, and there was no light, which made me feel a little depressed.

I didn't think much of it, and when I turned to go back to the counter, I noticed a figure standing behind me.

Yes! I exclaimed, and almost ran out of the pharmacy in fright. The figure did not speak, but slowly turned around, and I fixed my eyes on the fact that the man was a little boy who came to me every day to buy honeysuckle.

Although I am an old acquaintance, I always feel that there is something strange about it, every time the little boy comes in at three o'clock in the evening, no more and no less. I was surprised that he came in so early today.

Uncle, I want to buy five coins of honeysuckle The little boy looked at me quietly, his face was still the same as before, without any expression.

I walked to the medicine cabinet and took out the honeysuckle from the third cabinet in the third row of the medicine cabinet and gave it to the little boy. After the little boy took the honeysuckle and paid for it, he turned around and walked out of the pharmacy. I was stunned, in the past, at this time, the little boy had to squat in the corner and count the money until the pharmacy was about to close before leaving, but today he didn't stop at all, didn't count the money, and walked out of the pharmacy directly. Originally, this was a normal behavior, but in my opinion, it became extremely abnormal.

Confused, I opened the third cabinet in the third row, took the honeysuckle that the little boy had bought, and looked at it carefully. It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, I was shocked when I saw it. The honeysuckle in my hand turned out to be a broken intestine grass!!

I picked up the other honeysuckles and looked at them, and found that without exception, they were all broken intestines.

The appearance of the broken intestine grass and honeysuckle are extremely similar, and you can't see the difference at all if you don't distinguish them carefully, but there is a world of difference between these two kinds of traditional Chinese medicine in pharmacology, the former is a very toxic poison, when Shennong tasted the herb, it was because of the mistake of tasting the broken intestine grass and died, so the broken intestine grass is absolutely forbidden to be taken internally.

No, I sold the broken intestine grass as honeysuckle to the little boy, and I rushed out of the pharmacy to chase the little boy back.
