Chapter 115: Strange Woman
The fat man went to the corner and searched carefully, he was sure that there was no entrance to the basement, and when he walked out of this house, Cha Wenbin looked up and glanced again, which was much higher than the ordinary two-story building. Just when they were about to turn around and prepare to go to Bao Dafu's place, Ye Qiu suddenly turned around and ran into the house with great strides, making the fat man a little inexplicable, Cha Wenbin hurriedly shouted: "He must have found out, hurry up and follow!" ”
I saw Ye Qiu go up the stairs with an arrow, and the wooden plank was "clanging" by him, and after a while, it was the sound of the door being kicked open, and by the time Cha Wenbin and them went up, the guy was already ready to go downstairs.
"What do you see?" Cha Wenbin asked nervously, "Just now I wanted to say if we come again in the evening, you will ......."
Ye Qiu said expressionlessly: "When you turned around, I also turned back, and through the window on the second floor, I saw a pair of eyes. ”
This sentence immediately made the hairs on the back of the fat man's neck stand up at once, although it is daytime, but this building is very dim because of the problem of orientation, there is almost no sunlight in the afternoon. He is not afraid of touching a dead body or opening a coffin, but the only thing he is most afraid of is the dirty things that cannot be seen from the beginning, especially in this atmosphere and such an environment, and there was a tragedy here a few days ago.
Cha Wenbin decisively opened the compass, and the pointer was still running north-south, without the slightest sign of shaking. If there is something wandering around in this house at the moment, this compass will definitely react. He looked at Ye Qiu's face, he knew that Ye Qiu would never make inexplicable moves, he must have seen it.
"Eyes?" Cha Wenbin kept muttering when he went out, and the fat man told him to stop talking, and if he continued to talk about it, he was ready to go back alone.
"That's right, it's the eyes!" Cha Wenbin affirmed: "I also feel that I have been watching, someone is spying on us, since we were close to the house I have this feeling, at first I thought it was nervous, but then this feeling became more and more intense." ”
After dinner, wait until it is already dark, and there is a street lamp on the road from a long distance. At night, Ma'an Town is quiet and bleak, and occasionally one or two people pass by and don't say much, with their heads bowed and hunched over, with a flashlight in their arms.
Cha Wenbin played with the compass in his hand, the pointer was quite quiet, and he asked, "Brother Rich, where is the most scary place in our town?" ”
"That's a tomb, the path behind my house goes up about two miles and there is a big flat recess, which was originally densely lined with hundreds of wooden crossheads, and then when the four old ones were broken, the shelves were basically lifted, because the land said that the dead were leprosy, and no one dared to stay there until now, for fear of infection."
Tonight's moon is still more face-saving, you can see the road without a flashlight, occasionally a few people in a hurry pass by, these days the town is still permeated with the fear of homicide, the countrymen like to watch the lively, the scene of the old and young masters to see on the way back is a pig's liver color, who is not panicked in the heart?
It was a hollow overgrown with weeds, and it had to be climbed over a small hill, which was equivalent to the back of the town, and there was a lonely water tower erected around it, and Bao Dafu said that the bottom of the water tower was the original cemetery. Standing on that hill, I can't see anything famous, this kind of place similar to a mass grave Cha Wenbin slept when he was a child, so he went straight down. It seems that foreigners' graves don't like to set up grave bags, they pay attention to leveling, but it is still obvious that this hollow is different, there are no trees on this land, and there are all messy withered thatch.
Needless to say, this is a coffin, and the depth of burial was not enough, and after years of rain, many of them have begun to be gradually exposed.
The fat man covered his nose and said, "Cha Ye, how did this ghost place be so simple, I heard in the past that everyone who died of leprosy had to be burned with fire to avoid the virus infection." This thing is buried so shallowly, and it is a depression, and the bubble water in this coffin will not have to flow down the mountain for those ordinary people to eat until the time comes. ”
"Have you heard of anyone who has had leprosy in recent years?"
"Not really." In their memory, the older generation only said that there was an outbreak of leprosy in China in the 50s, that is, when the leprosy village of Ma'an Town reached its peak, but in the last 20 years, the leprosy disease has almost disappeared in China.
"It's all poor people," Cha Wenbin grabbed a handful of dry thatch and rubbed it in the palm of his hand, this detail aroused the fat man's curiosity: "Why are you pulling the grass on other people's graves?" Didn't you say that the grave grass couldn't be touched? ”
Cha Wenbin said: "The grave grass is not allowed to be touched, touching it is equivalent to touching the hair of the dead, especially taboo in the countryside." But the hair is too long, do you have to cut it, the grass here is too messy, catch up with Ming'er to find some workers to give a good rest and rest, live in other people's houses and plant other people's fields, but no matter what happens after people's death, who lies in it will be a little reluctant in my heart.
Don't you see that the people in Ma'an barely go out at night? I heard that this place is haunted, but this time there was a murder case, they are all abandoned people, and there is resentment in their hearts, I think those Bibles still play a role, otherwise they would not have moved in in the first place. It's a pity, now even the tombstone has been torn off, and in a few years it will be a wilderness of corpses, and by then this town is afraid that it will be abandoned. ”
After walking around, this cemetery, which was extremely terrifying to the locals, was nothing more than this in their eyes, and they were about to turn around when suddenly a figure flashed behind the water tower......
"Someone!" The fat man's eyes were sharp, and he immediately shouted: "Who! ”
Ye Qiu had already chased them out, because they were uphill, and they had to be twenty or thirty meters away from the water tower, and by the time he rushed up in one breath, there was already a quiet area below the hillside......
On this big night, someone was following them behind their backs, "Do you see who it is?" ”
"No," Ye Qiu said, "I feel that my stature is not high, and it is more likely that I am a woman." ”
This little episode brought a touch of weirdness to the homicide, and back at the bun shop at the bottom of the mountain, Dafu was ready to close the stall. There is no hotel to stay in this Ma'an town, it is located in the middle of nowhere, and it is not easy to walk down the mountain at night, so Cha Wenbin plans to go over and borrow the key from him.
"I'm going to stay at your house tonight, just make a bunk."
"How can that happen," Bao Dafu hurriedly greeted his wife, and the two closed the door and turned on the lights to greet the three guests and rushed home. At nine o'clock, the countryside is not as rich as the city's nightlife, at that time the TV was still a rare object, and people went to the kang early to have their wives and children.
was laying the futon for them, and suddenly there was a knock on the door outside the yard, Bao Dafu frowned and said, "Why are there still people coming at night, Lihua, go and see who it is." Fang Lihua is Bao Dafu's wife, a hard-working and down-to-earth rural woman, she shouted while rushing out: "Who? ”
"Me, his third brother."
The man who came was Murakami, the third in line, and he was about fifty years old. After he entered the house, he handed Cha Wenbin a cigarette and said: "You are the gentleman invited by Dafu, I heard them say that there is a Taoist priest named Cha Wenbin in Wulipu, who is very good, I can't imagine being so young today." ”
"You're looking for me?" Cha Wenbin asked, "Just say what you want." ”
"It's okay," the person who came took out a red envelope and put it on the table, it seemed that the people here pay attention to this rule, he first said to Bao Dafu: "Don't be surprised to borrow your husband to use it, I am also so troubled that I can't stand it, I have a little grandson in my family, and the silver dragon of his second rich family is as big." A few years ago, this little grandson once touched the second rich family to play, and I don't know how the little rabbit sneaked in, and once when I went back to hunt pigweed, I saw him running in the yard of the second rich family. ”
Speaking of this, he paused and said: "Dafu, don't blame the third brother for having a bad mouth, everyone knows what your little nephew is about, and I sympathize with it." But I'm such a precious grandson, so naturally I don't worry about him going there, so I chased him back, until something happened a while ago, and the little rabbit cub said that this thing was done by a woman named Xiao Yinlong. I asked who was the woman? He refused to say it, because it was a murder, and everyone was afraid of pulling this matter on his head, so I thought carefully to tell my grandson to shut up and stop talking.
But this afternoon, when I went to the back mountain to collect firewood, I saw the little rabbit cub wandering around the yard, and I was not angry at once, and I beat it with a stick, and the little cub said that the aunt in the house asked him to come. I thought about it this time, thinking that the house was not sealed by the police, why would there be any women in it, this little cub had encountered something unclean and soul-seducing, and I thought about it all night, and I thought of you. ”
"Afternoon?" Cha Wenbin asked, "What time is the afternoon?" ”
"It's past two o'clock, I've been working in the field for a while before I'm ready to go up the mountain."
"Then I guess we drove away with the front foot, and your grandson ran over." The fat man said: "This thing is a little interesting, it's an aunt, second, you said that it was also a woman who followed us in the afternoon, right?" ”
