About the Wu family's old house that Mu Jia said, in fact, I have heard it, but when I used to look at the shop, I heard it when I played chess with the neighbors in my spare time, and I only thought that this old house was very mysterious, and this family was even more mysterious, but I didn't think much about it at the time, and I wouldn't have thought that I would meet the owner of the old mansion by mistake today, if it wasn't for Mu Jia suddenly saying this, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to remember.

Judging from Mu Jia's expression, he was not discussing with us, but ordering, after he left, I looked at Xiao Dong and Xiao Wu, especially Xiao Wu, the second young master of the Wu family was as calm as a lake at this moment, with a bottomless silence.

"Hey, Xiao Wu, is there any mystery in the Wu family's old mansion?" I said tentatively.

Xiao Wu glanced up at me, nodded at me in hesitation, and said: "There is naturally a mystery, but that is a taboo for our Wu family, my father said that the Wu family starts with him, and all direct descendants are not allowed to enter." ”

I saw that his breath was very steady when he spoke, and his eyes were very sincere, not like a lie made up on an improvised basis, besides, we are now grasshoppers on a rope, and it is no good to deceive me.

"Your Wu family, I mean that the old house is in that small fishing village called Liushazhuang on the edge of the Yellow River."

Xiao Wu was a little surprised and asked, "Do you know Quicksand Village?" ”

I said, "I've heard of it before, but as far as I know, Liushazhuang was destroyed in a flood of the Yellow River, and most of the villagers have moved to the newly built local village.

Xiao Wu shook his head. He looked at me very seriously and said, "I'm worried about this, actually." The year before last, when the Yellow River flooded, I asked to go back with my eldest brother to see it. But my father just refused, he said that even if the Yellow River flowed backwards, our Wu family's old mansion would be fine, and there was no need to see it at all. ”

I was a little puzzled, it stands to reason that most of the villages along the Yellow River are fishing villages, and later the economy improved, and modern facilities such as wharves were gradually built there, but there are still some places along the river that maintain traditions. This quicksand village is one of the few remaining fishing villages, because of its special geographical location, it belongs to the most dangerous part of the lower reaches of the Yellow River, so no one has invested again, so it has maintained the same status for thousands of years.

I looked at the two of them, the crying outside was shocking, I knew that the time for a few of us to be buried alive was getting closer and closer, I thought of Mu Jia, and said in my heart that this kid must not break his word. But on second thought, a person as shrewd and cunning as he should not give up a plan easily, let alone that. The piece of skin on his back is still with me.

Thinking of this, I suddenly thought of a question, why did he insist on putting such an important thing with me. Are we afraid that we will not believe him?

That's right, it must be. Although this kid is very smart, he is also an unscrupulous person who does things without achieving his goals. But he also has weaknesses, he doesn't trust anyone, but he is also worried that others don't believe him, so, he controls us at the same time, but also worried that we don't trust him and find a way to get rid of him, so he used this human skin map on his back as a token, handed it to me is also a show to everyone that he wants to cooperate with us, thinking of this, I admire him a little, I have to say, although this person is very young, but his eye for people is extraordinary, to be honest, from beginning to end I believe what he said, From the moment I got this human skin map, I didn't even think about owning this map, or even running away to get rid of him.

The wailing outside was getting louder and louder, and Ping Pong didn't know what he was doing, I looked at Xiao Wu and whistled at him, he looked at me when he heard it, and asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

I said, "Do you really want to take him to Quicksand Village, the old mansion of the Wu family?" ”

As he was talking, he heard the door slam and was pushed open, and a few village names dressed in linen and filial piety put us into sacks like pigs without saying a word, and then carried them out, feeling like they were walking up the mountain.

It felt like we were being thrown into the coffin like pigs after a long walk, yes, the coffin, and even though I was in a sack, the moment they threw me in, I felt good.

I sat in the coffin, and my heart began to panic a little, saying that this Mu Jia changed his mind temporarily, he didn't need our help, and when we died, he could dig us out and take away the human skin map from me, then we would be finished, thinking of this, I felt uneasy, my hands were tied behind my back, and I couldn't save myself, the air in the coffin was getting less and less, I began to feel breathless, chest tightness, etc., The more this happens, the more anxious I become, Mu Jia has not moved for a long time, and if this continues, it won't be long before I will really be buried alive and buried.

The more anxious I was, the faster my breathing rate became, but I didn't expect that the feeling of being buried alive and dying was like this.

I don't know how long it took, but I felt a cool breeze blowing in the haze, and then I felt someone jump down and cut the rope, I crawled out of the coffin in a daze, and I felt someone sitting next to me, so I instinctively crawled over, and I couldn't see anything in the dark, it was all by feeling.

The lights were on, the dim orange-red light could barely make me see things in a radius of about a meter, Xiao Wu sat on the ground, as if he had just woken up, and Xiao Dong shrunk up like a cat, as if he hadn't woken up yet.

Mu Jia held up another kerosene lamp, yes, it was a kerosene lamp, the kind of lighting equipment from the Republic of China, and shook his finger in front of my eyes, "Are you awake?" ”

"Hmm." I shook my head and pressed my hand to my temples a few times.

"Xiao Wu, how are you?" I asked.

Xiao Wu covered his neck with one hand and shook his head, "It's okay, it's just dizzy." ”

Mu Jia put the kerosene lamp on a stone beside me, then sat down a little across from us, and said, "It's still early, so you can rest first, and when the day dawns, we will set off." ”

I said, "Where are you going?" ”

Mu Jia stretched out his head, winked at me, looked at me with a slight threat, and said, "Quicksand Village, the old mansion of the Wu family." ”

When Xiao Wu heard this, he immediately came to his senses, "No, you can't go." ”

"Why?" Mujia and I spoke in unison.

Xiao Wu said: "The old house of the Wu family can't enter, and the ancestors of the Wu family can't enter it." ”

Mu Jia snorted, looked at us in disbelief, with a faint smile on his lips, I suddenly felt that this grandson was not stupid, yin and yang all day long.

"The Wu family can't enter in life, but people who are not surnamed Wu are not subject to this constraint."

I nodded inexplicably, but I didn't understand why.

Xiao Wu was a little anxious, almost stood up, and said: "However, if people from the non-Wu clan go in, they will be cursed and buried in the snowy mountains and valleys. ”

Mu Jia smiled nonchalantly, pointed at me with a little madness, and then pointed at Xiao Dong and Xiao Wu who were sleeping, and said, "Are you also afraid of curses?" None of the people here are from the Wu family, who is afraid, I will bury him back. ”

As he spoke, he really stood up, with the muzzle of the gun pointed at us, not afraid of the current three-on-one situation, and Xiao Wu also stood up at this time, and I also stood up by habit, at the same time, Xiao Dong also eased up, squinting his eyes and not knowing what was going on, he was also held up by me.
