Chapter 122: Dead Silence

It was already dark in the Patou Forest, and after the police left, the surrounding villages began to be lively again, and the haystacks where the farm tools had been placed were lifted, and inside were all kinds of knives and axes, some of which were still stained with blood, and they all fell to the ground, and a group of villagers with torches began to sort the knives, and then carried them home. These are everyone's, just because the public security was brought in, so they were concentrated and hid together, and what they said behind their backs was all black words, and the hundred and ten people in these villages were all descendants of the Hu bandits, and they were also a remnant of the beard nest, both men and women were bearded robbers.

Usually, this group of people looks like honest farmers, but what they are doing behind their backs is really shocking, and even the nearby production team can't see it.

After the fog in the forest at the beginning of spring, it was a mess, their old man was killed by one foot, the yard was full of dead people, this matter was too big, they were afraid that they would not be able to hide it and leak it again, all these people could not be saved, so when they found out that Lao Tang was the public security, these villagers pretended to be innocent and told the people of the production team about it, and then found the militia who took the old Tang to Siping together, and let people go to Siping in advance to find the public security, everyone said that they just found this public security and didn't know anything else. Ask anything and say you don't know.

I thought that this matter would be fooled, but I didn't expect that there would be too many people coming from the police, and they would also have to search the nearby villages, for fear of hiding beards. These villagers are basically bearded, although they are usually well hidden, but there are inevitably few valuable items looted at home, and if the things are found, they will turn out all of their old bottoms, which is estimated to be based on what they do, they can directly come to a slaughter of the village.

But at this critical time when the public security is going to conduct a search. Suddenly, several trucks and jeeps drove from outside the village, forming a huge formation, and they seemed to feel that they were in a hurry, and when they arrived at the place, a group of people came down, all dressed in black uniforms, and stopped the police officers present. Then a person came out of those people and handed a letter to the public security steward who led the team at that time, and the steward took all the public security out of the country after reading it, and he went back how he came, at most he got the injured and unconscious old Tang and the corpses of those bearded people, and what happened after that was what Lao Tang woke up and learned, they were sealed by those people, no matter what they saw or found, they were not allowed to investigate and could not say, in order to make this matter have a story. This old Tang picked up a big pie and made him a hero, and broke this matter in a hurry, and what happened after that had nothing to do with the Siping Public Security Bureau.

After the evacuation of the police, the trucks and jeeps also drove away that day, but they were only empty, and the dozens of people who got out of the cars did not know where they went. The bearded villagers trembled and were fine for a few days, and gradually felt that the limelight had passed. Even God helped them, so they all returned to their previous lives. But at least I've been honest this month, and I don't dare to do those evil things again.

It was just after dark that day, and there was a family near Patou Forest who had just finished eating, and this man was a man who worked in the dirt, that is, the kind of grave digging in his beard, although he had not killed many people. But digging people's graves is more hateful than killing.

A few days ago, before the beginning of spring, these bearded men went out to steal a circle of tombs, but they dug up all the old graves in the fields of the flat-headed people, and there was not much oil and water. Just a stroke of luck. At the time of the land reform after the liberation, the tombs of those landlords' homes had already been dug up by the agitated peasants, saying on the surface that they were bringing down the landlords' land and wealth, but in fact it was a kind of robbery, and before it could be controlled, it had been dug up, which was more embarrassing and embarrassing, and made today's beards more headaches.

They used to be used to being lavish, this cold and liberated, pay attention to what everyone is equal, and the sale of land has become a country, their only way out is to work for the country, how can these people be convinced, so they often gang up to go to distant places to rob houses, because they are familiar with the terrain, they have not been caught after robbing, and the soldiers go into the mountains to suppress bandits passing by their villages, because they can think that the beard has become a villager.

The previous said that they had organized people to rob the tomb a while ago, and the men of this household also followed, and divided a few small stalls with the burial, which looked like they didn't know how much money. But they are not ordinary people, they have been doing evil for so many years, and they have robbed a lot of things, although they can't see the value of the objects, but at least they are not like those old farmers who can use thousand-year-old antiquities as pickle jars, or smash the joints of the tiles on the ground. They would wash and scrub what they had dug up or stolen in their own homes and store it in the cellar, intending to sell it for a good sum of money at a later date.

But Patoulin was not quite right today, first there was a burst of gunfire, and then the dense fog that surrounded it slowly began to spread outward, first slowly moving to the nearby villages on the ground floor, and then the fog suddenly rose up, shrouding all the nearby towns in the thick fog.

The house at the head of the village made the sound of brushes scrubbing hard objects, and in the middle of the house sat a man, facing inward with his back to the door, holding a stiff-bristled brush brushing a mud-stained earthen jar, and the brush was full of mud and slag, and after washing and scrubbing, it was separated into the cellar for storage. But just as he was busy lighting the candles, suddenly the flames of the candlelight were obviously much dimmer, and the light in the room was also reduced, and the half-washed jar flickered in the dim light and was a little unclear, and the man felt a little strange, so he turned his head to look behind him.

The candle stood by the stove, there was still half a candle left, but the flame was as small as if the lamp was going to dry up, and the dim one did not play much role, not only could not see the jar in the hand in the dim room, but even the furnishings in the house fell into darkness, and the eyes could only see the small candle flame that was gradually going to be extinguished, and a circle of light appeared around the flame in the dark, and as the circle slowly spread, the flame suddenly went out, and a damp and thick fog hit the face.

The man was dumbfounded, every breath of air he inhaled was damp and abnormal, and he felt like he was panting with his head tilted back in the heavy rain, and the rain poured into his lungs along the stream, and he coughed out more water and then inhaled more water, and the painful cough continued.

The man hurriedly covered his mouth with his sleeve, and then he understood that it was the mist of the chopping forest that had dispersed, but it was the first time that a thick fog could pour into people's homes, and it was so thick that people couldn't breathe. At this time, he couldn't take care of the jar in his hand at all, so the man quickly let go of his hand and ran into the house to wake up his wife and children on the kang. After his mother-in-law woke up, she thought it was on fire, so she exclaimed loudly, and suddenly the wife cried and the child screamed, but at this time the thick fog had entered the inner room, and the man quickly covered the mouths of the mother-in-law and the child with a cloth, and then the family of three jumped out of the window and planned to escape.

Maybe it's because the location of this family is the farthest away from the Patou Forest, but there is a small dirt bag behind the house, and all the thorny plants grow, so if you want to go out, you have to leave from the mouth of the village facing the Patou Forest, so the man held the child and dragged his mother-in-law to run quickly, he couldn't cover his mouth with a cloth and choked and spit out, but he still didn't let go and ran quickly.

But in the dense fog, he couldn't tell the direction at all, and he didn't know where he had run to, but he just wanted to escape from the place shrouded in the dense fog by feeling, and the more he wanted to escape from the dense fog, the closer he got to the dense fog, and the lungs slowly became numb from the initial choking feeling, and he didn't feel uncomfortable, and there was a kind of pinprick pain at the end of the limbs, and then spread to the whole body, and the man finally couldn't stand it and knelt on the ground, and the child he had been holding also fell to the ground, and there was no movement.

The man struggled to grit his teeth and raised his head, looking at the child lying beside him, he stretched out his hand and tried to pull him up, but as soon as he reached out and touched his child, suddenly his child was dragged away by something, and disappeared into the thick fog with a swish. The man's eyes turned white, and after he trembled and propped himself up, suddenly someone behind him hugged him, and put two arms around his neck and pressed some weight on the man's body.

The man supported the ground with one hand, and the other hand grabbed the arm that was around him, and when he touched the jewelry on the man's wrist, he suddenly realized that it was his mother-in-law, so he quickly shouted: "Our baby doesn't know what to arrest!" ”

But the mother-in-law behind her was unmoved, and still wrapped her arms around the man's neck, as if she hadn't heard the man say at all.

"What's wrong with you? Don't hold me, let go! Our baby is gone! The man wanted to chase after him to find his child, but he was caught by his mother-in-law and couldn't go, so he shouted anxiously, accompanied by a cough that made him breathless.

After the man shouted a few words, he slowly felt that something was wrong, there were figures shaking in the thick dark fog around him, and he was approaching him from all sides, a sense of fear that he had never felt before made the man suddenly have goosebumps, grabbed his mother-in-law's arm and whispered nervously: "It's bad, run!" Run backwards! ”

His mother-in-law still didn't react, and she didn't move, hanging behind him like a dead body. The man swallowed his saliva, turned his head slowly, and the moment he saw his mother-in-law, his ear was bitten, and then he tore it down. (To be continued......)
