Chapter 4 Water
Li Yin still remembered that before leaving, Xia Yuan specially gave him a piece of advice.
"The fourth blood letter indicates that the danger begins, and is often invisible. If you want to survive, you have to be observant, cautious, and look for some kind of pattern, even if it is even the slightest unnatural. It's been a long time since you've survived the blood word indication three times, so I hope you can live. ”
And one point he particularly emphasized was-
"Don't believe what anyone says, not even yourself. Because, your eyes will deceive you, maybe you are walking on a cliff, but you will feel that you are actually on flat ground. ”
Li Yin kept these words in mind, and for a moment, he didn't dare to relax.
And the village chief's invitation this time is a great "unnatural".
"I am the head of this village, and my surname is Zhang." The old village chief was supported by the young woman, and led Li Yin and the four of them to his own house.
"Village Chief Zhang," Ye Kexin asked first: "Why...... Would you like us to stay? ”
"Haha," said the village chief, smiling mysteriously, "I'm not like those uncivilized old antiques." Youshui Village can't always be in this big mountain and develop in a complacent. Take it easy. You can stay as long as you want. ”
The young woman who was supporting him hurriedly said, "Grandpa, this ...... Is it really good? Tomorrow, it's just right, it's Bing'er's sacrifice, at this time......"
Bing'er's sacrifice?
Li Yin's heart panted.
Tomorrow...... It was according to the blood letter instructions of the apartment, and he officially started living in Youshui Village. And that Bing'er, is that the "Li Bing" just mentioned?
It also happens to be a sacrifice......
If it was a coincidence, he didn't believe it if he was killed.
The village chief's house is magnificent, it is actually a little bit of a small western-style building, it is three stories high, and the outer floor is reinforced concrete, unlike other houses, most of which are ordinary cement houses.
After all, it was not a polite time, and Li Yin and the others also entered the village chief's house.
Of course, the village chief was also cautious, and took them to his room, and after sitting down, let his granddaughter go first, closed the door, and asked, "Can you tell me your names, then?" ”
After all, it is a person of unknown origin, and the village chief must also find out.
Li Yin replied: "My name is Li Yin, this is Qin Shoutian, Luo Hengyan, Ye Kexin......"
At this time, suddenly the door opened, and a flat-headed young man walked in, glanced at Li Yin and them coldly, and said to the village chief, "Grandpa...... Sure enough, I heard from the people in the village, you brought a group of unknown people to live in, is it true? ”
"Awu! Why are you so rude! Village Chief Zhang immediately said angrily: "Who do I invite, but you can't approve it!" ”
The young man named Ah Wu did not give in, and said, "Grandpa, who do you want to ask you to be free, but I can't get used to seeing these indiscriminate people running into the village!" ”
Suddenly, Luo Hengyan, who was in a hurry, was on fire, and immediately stood up and said, "You, who do you say is indiscreet!" ”
Li Yin immediately stood up as well and whispered, "Are you mistaken!" Is this the time to think about this kind of thing? Then he said with a smile: "This gentleman, we are experiencing the farmhouse style, there is absolutely no malice, we will leave after a month." ”
"A month?" The young man named Ah Wu was furious and said, "Do you want to stay for so long? Get out of here! Tell you, what kind of haunting, it was all said by people with weak hearts, that Li Bing committed suicide, and the Public Security Bureau closed the case! There are also people who use the theory of ghosts and gods to chase after the wind and catch shadows! ”
Suicide?
This surprised Li Yin a little.
However, it is still very stressful. Everyone has seen ghost stories, and it is also a very common routine for people who commit suicide to become ghosts.
Ah Wu's angry eyes made Li Yin even more sure that ...... "haunted" was not some kind of chasing after the wind.
"Alright, Ah Wu!" Village Chief Zhang slammed his cane on the ground and said, "You go back to my room!" Mr. Li, they are my guests, how can you be rude to your guests! ”
"Humph!" Ah Wu ignored it at all and said, "Grandpa, are you really letting them live for a month?" Do you know their bottom line? ”
Village Chief Zhang waved his cane and hit Na Awu! The latter was caught off guard and slammed on the shoulder!
"Get me back to my room!" Village Chief Zhang was angry, and suddenly, he began to cough again.
Li Yin was puzzled.
For the sake of a few people they don't know, beating their own grandchildren? What kind of calculation is this village chief having?
The degree of "unnaturalness" is getting stronger and stronger.
Na Wu glared at Li Yin and said, "Look at how proud you are!" Then, he rushed out of the room, and as a result, he collided with a middle-aged woman!
"Awu! What are you doing? The middle-aged woman covered her forehead and said, "Such a rampage!" ”
"Mom, go ask Grandpa yourself!" Then, Ah Wu rushed out, and the middle-aged woman immediately chased after him.
"Let everyone laugh," Village Chief Zhang immediately closed the door and said, "Don't care about anything, just stay, stay and stay." ”
Li Yin felt that it seemed that Village Chief Zhang had invited them to come with some purpose.
What is it?
Village Chief Zhang's house has a total of four people, it is him, his daughter Zhang Yinglan, the middle-aged woman just now, and his grandson Zhang Hongwu, and his granddaughter Zhang Suyue, that is, the young girl. The village chief's son-in-law died three years ago.
With Awu's atmosphere, Li Yin thought that it was really inappropriate for everyone to dine together, so he suggested that they should open a small stove for dinner and not bother the village chief. Anyway, just in case, I also brought a lot of food.
To Li Yin's surprise...... The village chief didn't insist, and after hearing what he said, he agreed.
It was late at night.
The turbulent water cascades down the waterfall, and Ah Xiu flows towards the waterfall.
"Sister Bing'er......" At this moment, her face was full of tears.
At the same time, near the village chief's house, there lived the middle-aged man who embarrassed Li Yin and them in the morning. His name is Yan Haotian, and he is a very bold person in the village, and he is also more popular. At present, he still lives alone.
"What is the village chief thinking......
At this time, it was almost midnight, but Yan Haotian still had trouble sleeping.
It stands to reason that it was almost summer, but he felt chills all over his body, so he covered himself with an extra quilt. But even so, I still feel shrunken and shiver.
Suddenly, he felt wet under the covers. At first, I didn't pay much attention to it, but later, it felt as if the whole quilt was being immersed in water!
Yan Haotian immediately sat up and lifted the quilt, and the whole bed was completely soaked with water for some time.
He immediately sat up, as soon as his feet touched the floor...... Also immersed in water!
"How...... What's going on? ”
He began to wonder.
The room was dark, and since there was no electric light, he couldn't make out his way at all, so he could only grope his way forward. Because I have lived here for a long time, I am already familiar with it, so I didn't hit the furniture.
I groped through the drawer and found that it was also full of water. The drawer was pulled open and a kerosene lamp and a box of matches were removed.
After lighting the lamp, he felt a little at ease.
At this moment, it is past midnight.
The time has entered June 7th.
Yan Haotian walked out of the bedroom and came outside to take a look, and found that the water on the ground was quite serious.
"It's raining heavily?"
However, outside the window, it is obviously a bright moon, where is the slightest sign of rain?
Soon he felt that the water was dripping from the ceiling.
Yan Haotian raised the kerosene lamp, and when he saw it, there was indeed water on the ceiling.
But...... When he saw that scene, he was immediately frightened!
How...... How can it be?
On the snow-white ceiling, there are rows of footprints! Footprints made of water!
The footprints, with five toes clearly visible, are it possible for a person to walk upside down from the ceiling?
Yan Haotian froze, biting his lip tightly, looking at the footprints on the ceiling, which actually extended into the kitchen.
Although he was very frightened, Yan Haotian still wanted to go and see it. Perhaps, what explanation can be found to understand this strange phenomenon.
He shuddered, and gradually walked towards the kitchen.
The kitchen is not very large, you can see it completely, and there is nowhere to hide people.
Apart from...... That big cupboard.
And the footprints on the ceiling actually extend to the top of the cupboard, and then, move to the wall against which the cupboard rests!
"No, it can't be."
Yan Haotian held the kerosene lamp high and slowly walked to the cupboard. Every step of the way is like walking on thin ice.
When he finally reached the cupboard, he grabbed the door of the cupboard with his left hand and took a deep breath.
"No...... It has nothing to do with me...... Li Bing, you committed suicide, I didn't hurt you, you, don't come to me......"
Then he slammed the door of the cupboard and opened it completely!
Under the reflection of the kerosene lamp, what caught his eye was-
Neatly arranged bowls and spoons.
Everything is normal.
"Whew-"
Yan Haotian felt like he was about to collapse at the moment, but he finally relaxed. Sure enough, it's me who scares myself.
But the footprints on the ceiling, what's going on? Could it be that someone is playing a prank? But no one in the village has a holiday with him. Also, can the water stains of those footprints alone accumulate so much water?
Anyway, scoop all the water out first, otherwise, you won't be able to sleep at all.
So, he closed the door of the cupboard and decided to scoop the water with the basin first.
Just as the cupboard door was about to close......
A bloodless hand actually reached out of the cupboard and pressed the door down!
Before Yan Haotian could react, another hand stretched out and grabbed his neck, and then, the door of the cupboard opened, and Yan Haotian's body was pulled into the cupboard!
The door of the cupboard slammed shut, and for a long time, there was no response. And the stagnant water, as if absorbed, seeped into the ground and disappeared.
A gust of wind blew, and the cupboard door was blown open again, and inside, there were still only neatly arranged bowls and spoons.
