All Chapters_Chapter 5 Ancestral Hall Guard
The death of the old blind man did not give me much fear, because I did not see a trace of pain on his face, but had a very peaceful feeling, like an old man who had died without any regrets.
But the village chief's gang was frightened, after all, the old blind man was a gentleman, and now even the gentleman died so strangely, it was certainly not a good sign.
In an instant, the shadow of terror hung over everyone's heads again.
Especially the person who jumped out earlier and scolded the old blind man as a liar, his words were all knotted, and he muttered vigorously, what should I do, even the husband is dead, will they still run away?
I got angry when I saw it, if it was really Xiaoyu's unjust soul, don't let people like him go.
But faintly, I always felt that the old blind man was not killed, but had something to do with me.
The village chief quickly calmed down from his fear, and said with a sinking face: "Don't worry, everyone, let's collect Mr.'s body and bury it properly." ”
Everyone present agreed, and when Xiaoyu's affair happened, they didn't dare to bury people casually.
When the body was being collected, the village chief asked me if there were any relatives in Qin Village, and I said no, the old blind man was alone.
After learning this, the village chief said that then don't bury it, let's cremate.
I thought about it, but I didn't object, if I was buried, there was no cemetery for the old blind man in the village at all, and after cremation, his ashes could be put in the ancestral hall.
However, there is a custom in our village, once the old man dies, the younger generation has to go to guard the spirit for three days, in order to show respect for the old blind man, in fact, he is afraid that the old blind man will be like Xiaoyu, the village chief decided to choose a few people to guard the old blind man's spirit.
However, considering the special situation, the village chief said that it would be enough to stay overnight, but no one dared to accept this errand.
In the end, I took the lead in standing up, after all, the old blind man is the person I invited, and the old blind man gives me the same feeling as the elders, this spirit, I must guard.
With me taking the lead, the village chief assigned two more people to go with me, including the person who scolded the old blind liar, this guy was called Lu Renjia.
After arranging this, the village chief went away, and let us hold on for another day, and when it was dawn tomorrow, he would bring his husband with him.
I went home first, and told my mother about the wake, and my mother said that I should go, but if I heard any strange sounds at night, don't talk to me, and run home quickly.
When my mother said this, I subconsciously became nervous, thinking that it was very likely that something would happen again tonight.
The three of us didn't stay at home for too long, and we soon met at the entrance of the ancestral hall.
The ancestral hall is in the middle of the village, and in the early years, all the ancestral tablets were enshrined, but they were destroyed when they were broken in the past, and they have not been repaired so far.
When I went in, the ancestral hall was in disrepair, it was in tatters, and there were cobwebs everywhere, so it was no wonder that the children in the village usually did not want to come here to play.
There was no electricity in the ancestral hall, so we lit the candles as soon as it got dark, chatting nonsense to pass the time.
I really didn't have any common language with them, especially Lu Renjia, so I cleaned up a corner and sat down.
As the night got deeper and deeper, I began to doze off, and just as I was about to fall asleep, I suddenly felt a cool breeze blow in.
When I opened my eyes, I saw that the door of the ancestral hall had opened at some point, and the candle flames were swaying back and forth in the wind.
Lu Renjia scolded and went to close the door, but as soon as he walked to the door, he suddenly ran back again, his face was green.
Another person asked him what was wrong, Lu Renjia's whole body trembled, and he stammered, "The door... Outside the door there is... Someone! ”
The other and I suddenly tensed up, "Don't scare us. ”
Lu Renjia was anxious: "If you don't believe it, go and have a look." ”
I looked at the man, and boldly walked to the door, and when I looked out, there was everything.
"Haha! You really believe it. At this time, Lu Renjia laughed.
"Holy shit, you're a fucking bitch, making such a joke." The other person reacted and immediately scolded with a black face.
"I don't think the atmosphere is too tense, so let's liven up the atmosphere." Lu Renjia said disapprerovingly.
"Woo ......"
But just then, I suddenly heard a woman crying outside the door.
I shook violently in fright: "Listen, someone is crying." ”
The two of them were stunned, "Jin Qiaojue, you also come to this set, right?" ”
I said it was true, not joking, but the two of them pricked up their ears and listened for a while, then turned their faces to stare at me and said angrily: "You are a fart, you don't make trouble." ”
"Woo ......"
But the crying kept coming to my ears, and I heard it so vividly that it made my hairs stand on end.
But Lu Renjia and the two of them didn't believe me at all, so they closed the door with their hands, sat down again, and tore it open by themselves.
I was in a hurry and was about to explain again, but the crying disappeared at this moment.
After a while, I always felt that something was wrong there, but I couldn't say it, and when I looked at Lu Renjia, they looked at themselves again, and finally found a terrifying fact!
In the ancestral hall, there were four people!
I rubbed my eyes and found that the extra person was standing behind Lu Renjia and the two of them, I couldn't see his face clearly, but I could vaguely tell that it was a man.
I opened my mouth wide in fright, not knowing whether to warn them or not, and after a moment's hesitation, I glanced at them and motioned for them to look behind them.
Only then did they realize that something was wrong, and hurriedly glanced behind them, and as a result, they immediately scolded again: "Jin Qiaojue, you are still finished!" ”
Strange to say, after being scolded by them like this, I found that the figure suddenly disappeared.
I don't know how to explain it to them, I guess they won't believe it if I explain it, forget it, nothing happened anyway, just don't care.
Look at the time, it's already more than three o'clock in the morning, and it will be dawn in a few hours, so keep going.
For peace of mind, I went to sit with them and kept throwing paper money into the brazier.
After a while, they could not stay up anymore and dozed off, and after a while, their heads tilted at the same time, and they fell asleep.
I was also sleepy, but I always felt that there were eyes staring at me in the dark in the ancestral hall, which made me dare not sleep.
At this moment, I suddenly felt a chill all over my body, and the lit candle jumped violently, and then a familiar voice came to my ears: "Leave the ancestral hall quickly." ”
I suddenly tensed, I didn't even dare to breathe, and asked tremblingly, "You... Who are you? ”
She didn't speak.
My heart was about to pop out, and my mind was very clear at this time, and it was definitely not a hallucination, so I dared to ask again: "You, are you Xiaoyu?" ”
She spoke again, but instead of answering my words, she said in an anxious voice, "Quick, get out of here, it'll be too late after dawn." ”
I heard it very well this time, and her voice was Xiaoyu, and I immediately ran out of the ancestral hall in fright, but as soon as I went out, I tripped and fell to the ground.
I hurriedly got up from the ground, feeling a puddle of slimy liquid on the ground with my hands, and it smelled fishy.
I didn't bother with any of this, so I hurried in the direction of my house.
I ran home in one go, but before I could call my mother to get up and open the door, I suddenly felt something hit me on the head, and immediately my eyes went black and I fainted.
When I opened my eyes again, it was already dawn.
I rubbed my head, which was still hurting, and when I got up, I found that I was lying on the bed, thinking that my mother should have found me and dragged me back.
I was just about to call my mother to ask her about the past, when I saw my mother holding a burden in her hand and came over in a panic.
"Xiaojue, you're awake, hurry, grab your luggage and run!" The mother said anxiously.
Run? What to run? I'm confused.
"What are you doing in a daze, get up and run, if you are found by the people in the village, you won't be able to run away."
I was even more puzzled, and hurriedly asked my mother what was wrong, so anxious to let me run.
"You... You killed someone, and you killed the two people who kept the wake with you yesterday! My mother pointed at me in a panic.
I was stunned on the spot and hurriedly said I didn't!
But my mother pointed to me, "Then why are you covered in their blood?"
But as soon as I looked down, I saw that my clothes and hands were covered with blackened blood!
