Chapter 11 Jade Pendant

The bodies of the second uncle and the second aunt are unknown, and there is a murderer behind the murderer, what is his motive? Why did he do it? And is what the second uncle said true, is Zhang Ya dead or alive?

Things are getting more and more complicated, all the clues are broken, and the lepers who finally contacted Zhang Ya are also dead, and everything has become confusing, and I don't know how to start.

There were not many livestock in the village, so the village chief asked everyone to gather all the livestock in the family and distribute them uniformly. Even so, the remaining livestock in the entire village is only enough to last for two days, and if the little fat man's master does not appear on time after two days, the consequences will be unpredictable.

But at the moment, there is no other way but to wait.

That night, the wind was still strong, and the next morning all the animals tied to the door were disemboweled, and their hearts were cut out.

The next day, the third day after the old man left, he was supposed to return, according to the agreement, but from morning until the sun was about to set, there was no sign of the old man.

I became more and more anxious, for the cattle in the village barely lasted one night, and what if the old man did not show up before dark to-morrow.

Just as I was in a hurry in my room, I suddenly heard a "pop", like something breaking apart.

When I turned my head to look, I found that the jade pendant hanging from the little fat man's chest was broken.

At this time, the little fat man was getting something to eat in the kitchen, and when the weather was hot, he took off his coat and jade pendant and put them on the chair in the hall.

I walked over and picked up a fragment, it felt cold in my hand, and was about to tell the little fat man about it, when he came out of the kitchen wiping his mouth.

"Little mute, there is still food in the house, I haven't eaten yet."

The little fat man stroked his round belly, with a look of dissatisfaction, in the matter of eating, I have never seen the little fat man full, I feel that his stomach is a bottomless pit, and many things can be filled.

I said don't eat it, your jade pendant is broken.

The little fat man sighed, and suddenly his face changed, looking at the jade pendant fragment in my hand, an arrow stepped over, and his eyes widened with the fragment, and his face looked extremely panicked.

I comforted him and said that he didn't have to be too sad, just a jade pendant, and I would let the little mute get you something to eat.

The little fat man was unmoved when he heard the food this time, and his whole body trembled, and it seemed that the jade pendant was very important to him.

After a moment, he suddenly shuddered and said, "Impossible, this can't be!" ”

I was confused and quickly asked him what was going on.

He didn't speak, wrapped the jade pendant, put on his coat and hurriedly walked out.

"Hey, it's getting dark, why are you going!" I hurriedly stopped him, I can't move around at this time, it's almost dark, and it's miserable to go out and meet the yin and yang piles at this time.

"Leave me alone!" The little fat man shook me off and continued to walk out, and I saw that something was not quite right, so I hurriedly walked up to stop him and asked him what was wrong.

The little fat man's face looked very nervous, "Something happened to my master!" ”

As soon as I heard it, I was stunned, "How do you know that he's back?" ”

The little fat man shook his head, "This jade pendant is through the spirit of the master, the jade pendant was broken at this time, it must be that the master has encountered danger, I have to save him!" ”

When I heard this, I became nervous, "But how to save it, it's almost dark, and besides, the back mountain is so big, I don't know where your master is!" ”

"I don't care!" The little fat man looked anxious, "I have a way to find him, don't stop him, stay in the house and don't go anywhere." ”

Looking at the appearance of the little fat man, it seems that persuasion is useless, I thought about it, and gritted my teeth, "Okay, you wait a minute, I'll go with you!" ”

The livestock in the village is only enough for one night, if something really happens to the old man, everyone will not be able to escape tomorrow night, so it is better to simply gamble and go into the back mountain with the little fat man to save his master, than to sit and wait for death.

I went back to the house and explained a few words to the little mute, but the little mute bit his lip and grabbed me, but he wouldn't let me leave.

"Little mute, I really have no other way now, don't worry, I'll be fine, you just stay in the house and don't go anywhere, wait for me to come back."

To tell the truth, after all these days, I am not very afraid of death now, the only thing I am worried about is the little mute, but there is really no better way, if I don't rescue the old man, let alone the little mute after dark tomorrow, I am afraid that no one in the whole village will be able to escape.

I grabbed a flashlight and the little fat man and galloped all the way, and by the time I reached the foot of the back mountain, it was already completely dark.

The whole village began to blow a strong wind, and strangely enough, there was no movement in the back mountain, only the wind was heard whistling in the village, but it was surprisingly quiet.

I asked the little fat man what to do, such a big back mountain, going up to find someone is similar to looking for a needle in a haystack.

The little fat man said that he had a way, and he could find the master in a small way.

"Small?" I wondered, "You mean that lame last time?" ”

The little fat man nodded, "Little Budian is not the name of the chicken, it is a kind of spell to guide the way, as long as it is a living animal, it can be made into a small Budian to lead the way." ”

I looked around, "But where is there a living creature here, the cattle in the village must not be able to lead, if it is better to say during the day, catch a pheasant or something, at night, where to get a live creature?" ”

The little fat man took out a piece of talisman paper and a bell and looked at me, I took a few steps back, "You don't want to make me small!" ”

The little fat man shook his head, handed me the bell, and then slapped the rune paper on his head, "Later, when I finish reciting the mantra, you can shake this bell, and I will open the way ahead......"

I hurriedly interrupted him, shook my head and said, "That's not good, you killed yourself, how can you save your master?" ”

The little fat man said, "Who said that you want to kill yourself, you remember, when this bell can't ring, you must tear off the talisman paper on my head and stop for a while, if it exceeds this time, I will really be killed." ”

Then he gave me some more precautions, and began to grunt about a flurry of things.

As soon as he finished reciting the mantra, he saw that his whole body suddenly became straight, as if he was stiff, and the expression on his face was also very wooden, and his eyes were empty, like a dead man.

I tried to shake the bell, and suddenly the little fat man jumped straight forward.

This action scared me a little, and reminded me of the corpse chaser in the movie, and the situation at this time is exactly the same as the scene of the corpse chaser.

The little fat man told me that no matter what I saw or heard in the process, I couldn't turn back, I couldn't make any sound, and I couldn't stop.

This made me miserable, and not long after I entered and shook the bell to drive the little fat man into the mountain, I heard dense footsteps behind me.

Every time I shake it, in addition to the little fat man, the footsteps behind me also move forward, I want to shout but can't shout, I want to run but can't run, just stubbornly rush the little fat man forward step by step, and my back has long been soaked with sweat.

After about an hour, I suddenly noticed that the bell in my hand seemed to be blocked, and it couldn't be shaken.

I hurriedly tore off the talisman paper on the little fat man's forehead, and the little fat man collapsed to the ground, his face returned to ruddy, and he sat on the ground gasping for breath, as if he was very tired.

After resting for a while, the little fat man said to continue walking, and just walked and stopped, until the third time the bell could not be shaken, the little fat man's face was frighteningly white, and his head was full of dense beads of sweat, and he looked like he had collapsed.

When I saw him like this, I turned my heart sideways and said that if you don't change me to be a little bit smaller, you will have to collapse if you continue like this.

The little fat man shook his head and said, "No, you'll be scared to death." ”

I said I just jumped forward, what's the big deal, I just treated myself as a corpse.

The little fat man wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead and said, "It's not that simple, when you enter the state of being a little bit, you are between the living and the dead, what you see, what you hear, is not just something in the yang world, ordinary people will definitely be scared to death, even if you are bold, there are many taboos and secret curses in it, and you will never wake up if you are not careful." ”

I looked at the prostration of the little fat man, and secretly felt a little worried, so I said that I had known this, and I should bring more food before going out, so as to replenish my strength.

The little fat man said, "This has nothing to do with physical strength, and you don't understand it." ”

After finishing speaking, he touched his stomach and smiled at me, "Besides, my stomach can't fill up with many things, and I've never enjoyed the taste of being full when I'm so big." ”

I thought to myself that this little fat man is really a foodie, at this time, when he mentions eating, he can dance with his eyebrows, and he is still in the mood to joke, thinking that if this matter passes, he must make a lot of things to make this guy eat a round belly.

After a short rest, we continued on our way, but at this pace it was ridiculously slow, and we didn't know how long it would take to find the old man.

Now I heard the dense footsteps behind me again, and it didn't feel so scary, the little fat man said that as long as he didn't make a sound and didn't look back, it would be fine, and those footsteps were just the sound of something passing by.

Along the way, I could see many dead animals, wild goats and little sparrows, all with their bellies open, and I could guess that the hearts of these animals must have been missing.

The further I went, the more animal carcasses there were, and at this time I suddenly realized that our village was so big, even if we wanted to destroy our entire village, we didn't need to refine so many yin and yang piles?

Suddenly, a thought popped into my head: Could it be that the black hand behind the scenes is not only targeting our village?

Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard someone calling my name from behind, the voice sounded somewhat familiar, and I was about to answer instinctively, but suddenly I came to my senses and closed my mouth tightly.

In the middle of the night in this barren mountain and wilderness, who will come up and call me by name?

Just as I was about to ignore it and move on, the voice sounded again, "Brother Zhanning, wait for me, I'm Zhang Ya!" ”
