I saw the sparks from Ah Cai burn footprints on the ground, and I sniffed it closely, and the smell that could make Ah Cai vomit a few more times wafted out.

"It's their footprints, with the past. ”

Following the footprints into the village, this village is not very large from a distance, but the houses are relatively dense, and the footprints we followed are gone to the entrance of the village.

Because the ground in the village is all bluestone, and there is almost no dead grass on the road, Acai's charm no longer works.

"There's no way, there's no footprint here, I guess they've already entered the village. Acai said.

I have a bad feeling that something has happened to this village, maybe tonight, maybe tomorrow night, and the village will be in trouble.

When I looked up, it was supposed to be the second watch, but every house in the village was lit up.

"Aren't they sleeping?" asked Wu Shu.

"I don't know, this is the strange thing in their village, those rotting corpses have entered the village, anything can happen, we can't burn the whole village. I said.

Wu Shu nodded: "That's really not easy, but I'm not afraid, haven't we also dealt with Aunt Li's affairs in our village?"

"She's a kind ghost, she doesn't mean to harm us, if she were like these rotting corpses, we wouldn't be able to get along with the Yellow Turbans so far. "Actually, I'm not very sure in my heart at this time that I can deal with these rotting corpses.

When I fought with those rotting corpses just now, although I didn't make much effort, I always felt that those corpses didn't seem to be able to be cut to death, and in the end, the fat man burned them with fire, so he could be regarded as completely killing them.

Now, these carrion corpses can also transform into magic, if they use the banner of the Yellow Turban Army to behave among the people, they can immediately take down a lot of people.

"Let's go from house to house, or we won't find it. Ah Cai said.

I shook my head: "It's so late, and they don't necessarily become someone, how can we find out?"

"What then?" Wu Shu asked.

I thought for a long time and said, "It's better to be like this, these rotting corpses are still afraid of the day, and tomorrow when the sun rises, we will think of gathering all the people in the village, and now gather them, and ask them if there is anyone in the village when the time comes." ”

"And what if the rotting corpses are hidden, they don't know?"

"We can let the people search for themselves during the day, their homes are most familiar to them. After I finished speaking, I found a stone bench at the entrance of the village and sat down.

After all, it was a few days of fatigue and did not get a good rest, so such a small rest must be very effective.

Wu Shu and Ah Cai also sat on the stone bench, and the three of us closed our eyes slightly, and I didn't slowly open my eyes until dawn when the rooster in the village announced.

But at this moment, I noticed that there were big eyes staring straight at me.

"Who?" I exclaimed.

"You three are from out of town, aren't you?" said a fourteen-fourteen-year-old boy.

While he was talking to us, an aunt in her fifties came out from behind him: "Da Yuzi, who are you talking to?"

"Mom, you see there are three people sitting here, it seems that they are from other places. Da Yuzi said.

I got up and chuckled, "We're from the back mountain, and we heard that you guys are haunted here, so we're here to check it out." ”

Hearing me say this, the aunt immediately took two steps back in shock: "Who are you? Don't talk nonsense here, our village has good weather all the year round, and they are all blessed by the ancestors, what the hell?"

"Oh, we've just heard that it's better if there are no ghosts, and we don't like to bother with that. ”

My aunt looked me up and down for a moment and said, "Oh! I see, it seems that you are here to cheat money, we don't have ghosts here, insist that there are ghosts here, let us pay some money to eliminate the disaster when the time comes?"

I smiled bitterly and said, "It's nothing, we just heard about it, and besides, even if there are really ghosts, we will definitely not take anything from catching ghosts." ”

"Cut, I don't believe it, I left the big leftovers, went up the mountain to chop some firewood, and your father and your brother are still waiting at home to cook. As she spoke, the aunt took away the big leftovers.

When I heard this, I immediately had some doubts about my plan, and when I came to my senses and turned back, Ah Cai and Wu Shu looked at me at the same time and shook their heads: "We see that your plan is going to fail." ”

I looked up at the sky, and I couldn't help but feel anxious: "It's dawn, if you can't find those rotting corpses before dark, I'm afraid the night will really be haunted." ”

Not long after, dozens of villagers came out of the village, led by the village head, Old Man Li, who was followed by the aunt just now.

I don't know what bad things my aunt said about us in front of him, anyway, these people look at us very hostilely.

"Where did you come from? I heard you were going to catch ghosts here?" asked the village chief.

I nodded and said, "It seems that you are the official of the village, please go back to see if there is a stranger in the house under the notice from house to house, or if something strange happens?"

"I didn't find strange things, but strangers did. The village chief said.

I immediately asked, "Where's the stranger?"

"That's you!"

When I heard this answer, Tengdi's heart burned: "I am telling you the truth, there are other strangers who must tell us, if it is late, I am afraid that tonight will be haunted." ”

"Pull it down, you better go to other villages, there can be no ghosts in our village, and it can't be haunted, let's go. "I didn't expect the village chief to issue an eviction order so quickly, unceremoniously.

There was no way, we could only walk back and forth on the road to the village a few times during the day, and indeed we did not find anything suspicious, but we could not enter the people's homes, so we had to leave the village again and stop temporarily in the woods outside the village.

But at this moment, I faintly heard a burst of laughter coming from the direction of the village, which sounded like it was made by a few children while they were playing, but the sound came and went, and it sounded a little awkward.

"Ah Cai, did you hear it, there are children laughing!"

Ah Cai stretched out his ears and listened for a long time, then shook his head: "I didn't hear it." ”

Wu Shu's head shook and said, "Xiao Yan, are you hallucinating, if you want to say that those villagers are really angry, how can we say that they can listen to it." ”

"Hey, we can only wait for the evening. I said.

But at this time, Da Yuzi came down from the mountain, carrying a bundle of firewood on his back, humming a little song in his mouth.

"Little brother, let me ask you something, how many children are there in your village?"

Da Yuzi thought for a while: "If you count my brothers, it should be two, if you count me, it will be three." ”

"Oh, forget it, you can go, but I have something I want to ask you. ”

Da Yuzi immediately waved his hand: "Pull it down, I still have to go into the city to sell firewood, you still have to ask others if you have something, if my mother knows that I am talking to you again, I have to be beaten." ”

I saw that he was going into the city to sell firewood, so I simply bought his firewood and left this time for us. I took out some money and handed it to Da Yuzi: "This money is considered as my purchase of your firewood, I just need you to help me do a very simple thing." ”

Seeing the money I gave, Da Yuzi's face showed some joy, and he carefully looked at the surrounding environment and said: "Say, see that you don't look like some bad people, I'll help you." ”

"Listen, from now on, before dark, you can find a way to go from house to house in the village to see if there are any strangers, if there is anything abnormal, and if so, come back and tell us at once. ”

Da Yuzi immediately nodded when he heard this, and said in my ear: "Actually, I saw it early in the morning, they don't believe what you say, but I believe that the old Huang family in the village feels that something is wrong, his family is usually the first to rise in the village, but today is this time, and no one from his family has come out." ”

"Do you know what's going on?" I asked.

Da Yuzi said: "I don't know, my younger brother went to play with his youngest son, but he couldn't knock on the door." ”

"Well, that's right, can you take me to see it?"

Da Yuzi immediately waved his hand and said: "That's not good, if my mother knows, the ass is designated to bloom, okay, I won't talk to you, I still have to go home, and the firewood will be left for you." ”

After speaking, the big leftover ran away.

We crept into the village, and the sound of the child playing just now came out again, echoing in my ears.

I asked Ah Cai and Wu Shu, "You didn't hear at all?"

"I really didn't hear it. ”

I just wondered that when we were about to sit on the long stone, we found a child jumping up and down on the long stone, and talking to himself strangely, not knowing who he was talking to.

But we did only see him playing there, and there was no one around him.

"What's your name, little friend?"

"My name is Little Leftover. ”

"Who are you having so much fun with?" I asked.

Xiao Yuzi's face suddenly showed a slight sly smile: "Can't you see it? That's the old man of the Huang family." ”

I saw goosebumps all over my smile, and subconsciously reached out and touched the child's forehead, which was a normal temperature, and I got close to him again, sniffing, human smell.

It's strange, where did that smirk come from?

"Smack!" I just felt a pain in my shoulder.

"Don't touch my children, little leftovers, go home with my mother, I really don't know what these people think!"

"What's going on with the people in this village. "I wanted to scold, but I held back out of Confucian etiquette.

We rested for a while, inquired about the courtyard of Lao Huang's house, and stood in front of his house, the two gates were locked, and there was no sound in the yard.

"It's strange, they don't go out in broad daylight, there's definitely a problem. "As soon as I finished speaking, a few people came from behind us.
