Chapter 422: Alley Black Cat
Li Bing and his entourage stepped over the big stone strip at the mouth of the alley and entered the ancient, dilapidated and slightly gloomy and terrifying alley.
Although it was broad daylight and the sun was shining outside, there was no sunlight in the small alleys. The wind blowing in the alley brought a hint of early summer coolness to Li Bing and others, and even a chill swept through everyone's hearts.
On both sides of the alley, the ground is sprinkled with gray-white old lime from the uneven walls. The alley twists and turns, with occasional traces of sealed gates on both sides, and occasional small windows that are high above the ground, but most of them have been sealed.
A few people stopped and stood quietly, if it weren't for Zhao Wan'er talking about the strangeness of this alley, everyone would have admired this antique Chinese-style alley that is difficult to see in a small city lined with steel and concrete.
Several people walked silently into the depths of the alley, looking back and forth vigilantly from time to time.
Zhang Yuanshan took out his compass and identified the direction. When they entered the alley twenty or thirty meters, Zhang Yuanshan suddenly felt dizzy.
When he was puzzled, he saw Zhao Wan'er and said: "Let's go out, I suddenly feel a little dizzy and nauseous, and my heart is panicked!" ”
Zhang Yuanshan was busy asking others, and the answers he got were actually the same as Zhao Wan'er.
He knew something was wrong, and when he looked at the compass in his hand, he was surprised to see that the needle on the compass was trembling. Everyone also saw the strangeness of the compass, and they all quieted down, looked at Zhang Yuanshan, and then looked around nervously.
Zhang Yuanshan frowned, and he couldn't understand what was going on. I've never seen a compass like this, and it doesn't look like it's something unclean. If you have to say that you have encountered an evil spirit, then this terrible thing must have powerful spiritual power.
Everyone felt a chill on their bodies, and the old lady Zhang narrated by Zhao Wan'er told her that the alley was not clean, and rumors such as evil ghosts, fox fairies, and wild dogs eating people occupied everyone's hearts.
A miserable "woo, woo" sound came from the top of several people's heads, startling everyone. When they looked up, they saw a black shadow hovering over a crooked old brick chimney on the edge of the alley, and two terrifying green lights scanning the crowd.
After everyone saw it clearly, they breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that this was a huge black cat.
The black cat suddenly saw a few strangers, opened its teeth, grinned, and kept making a 'woo, woo' sound that I didn't know whether it was scared or intimidated.
Zhang Yuanshan whispered: "Everyone, pay attention, cats are animals that are easily possessed by evil spirits. The compass needle is swinging so violently, there may be a powerful evil in the vicinity. ”
Shi Liya said suspiciously: "Brother Zhang, it's daylight now!" How can there be demons coming out? ”
Before Zhang Yuanshan could answer, Zhao Wan'er said nervously: "Ghosts can't come out in broad daylight, is it really like what is described on TV and in novels, there are really demons in the world?" It is said that demons are not afraid of sunlight and can come out day and night. ”
Shi Liya exclaimed "ah": "Cat demon? This is only available in mythological dramas! ”
Shi Liya's exclamation also frightened the big black cat. I saw the big black cat "meow", jumped over the alley from the top of everyone's heads, and disappeared on the roof on the other side of the alley.
When the big black cat rose into the air, it took a handful of garbage from the old chimney and sprinkled it down one after another.
Li Bing touched the top of his head and was surprised to find that there were actually a few pieces of flower cloth crumbs floating on his hair, and there were some black condensates on them.
Zhao Wan'er asked nervously, "Li Bing, are these black things blood?" That Mrs. Zhang said that three days ago, Wen Xia's baby girl who had just completed the moon disappeared, could this be? ”
Although Chao Wan'er didn't say anything, everyone understood what he meant.
Li Bing said: "Let's leave and give these things to Team Song to see." ”
As they were about to leave, a voice as ugly as sawn wood roared around them: "Who are you?" What are you doing here? Hey, isn't that the girl from yesterday? I told you not to come, why did you come with so many people? Get out of here, young man, and be careful of getting into trouble! ”
Everyone was shocked, and when they looked around, they didn't see anyone. Zhao Wan'er was so frightened that she hugged Shi Liya and shouted in horror: "It's that Mrs. Zhang's voice!" Why don't you see her? Is it any wonder that Mrs. Zhang is a ghost? ”
The voice was full of annoyance at this time: "Girl, I kindly remind you, you actually say that I am a ghost? You girl doesn't know the rules, it's really good to be kind! ”
Li Bing said with a smile: "Old woman, I'm sorry!" We're all friends, and they didn't see you, so that's why they're scared. We heard your kind reminder of Wan'er yesterday, and we were curious, so we came to find out! ”
Following Li Bing's gaze, Zhao Wan'er and the others found that in a small black window on the right side of the alley, which was more than one person high from the ground, the face of a shriveled and terrible old woman was revealed.
Zhao Wan'er exclaimed, "Granny Zhang, is it you?" How did you end up here? ”
Seeing that Zhao Wan'er recognized herself, Mrs. Zhang's distorted face looked slightly soothed, and her tone was not so vicious. She sighed and said, "Girl, I reminded you yesterday, why didn't you listen to the advice and go into this little alley?" For forty years, I didn't dare to go into this alley. ”
Zhao Wan'er asked hesitantly, "Granny Zhang, how did you find out that we are in the alley?" Why are you looking at us from this little window again? It freaks the hell out of me! ”
Mrs. Zhang coughed dryly and said, "You don't know, do you? My house is next to this alley, which means that the alley around you is actually the wall of my house. There used to be a door here, which had been sealed with bricks since my poor girl died forty years ago, leaving only this little airy window. ”
"I was in the house and I heard movement in the alley. I wondered who was so bold as to enter this little alley, and then I climbed up the window and found you. ”
Mrs. Zhang paused and said, "Young man, leave this alley quickly, and don't come in again." Whatever you see or hear in the alley, don't talk about it and beware of getting into trouble! ”
Zhao Wan'er was about to ask again, Li Bing quietly pulled the corner of her clothes, and hurriedly said to Mrs. Zhang: "Thank you for reminding the old woman, let's leave!" ”
Li Bing pulled Zhao Wan'er and walked hurriedly out of the alley, and the others hurriedly followed, quickly leaving the alley, and the sneer of the old lady faintly came from behind him.
As soon as I got out of the alley, there was a faint cry in my ears. Zhao Wan'er's eyes turned red and said, "Did you hear the cry?" The one who cried was Wen Xia. It's so pitiful, the daughter who has just been full moon is gone! ”
Li Bing's heart suddenly moved, he spread out his palm and looked at the few pieces of rags, and said to Zhao Wan'er: "Wan'er, you take us to see that Wen Xia!" ”
