Chapter 2 Chapter 2 Staying at my cousin's house

Could it be that there is a destiny in the dark?

I think this is providence, and the coin in my heart has finally fallen to the ground.

Judging from the map, from Jinling to Fucheng, through half of the hot summer, the distance is very long, but the high-speed rail only takes six hours, and the time is not very long.

Today, Friday, Song Lei's wedding was on Sunday, so I bought a ticket for Saturday and arrived the night early.

To be the best man, it is estimated that there must be rehearsals and the like.

In the evening, I dreamed of the girl again, and she seemed to know that I was going to find her, and she kept quiet, squatting in the corner of my sight, and accompanying me through the whole night's dreams, until she woke up in the morning, and she got up and waved goodbye to me.

The high-speed train at ten o'clock in the morning arrived in Fucheng at five o'clock in the afternoon.

Song Lei was busy preparing for the wedding and couldn't pick me up, so he gave me a detailed address and asked me to take a taxi.

In the early autumn in the north, it was a little cold, I wore less, carried my suitcase, and shivered into a taxi, and the master asked me "which Gada" to go to?

I gave him the address, and the master looked at it, frowned, and asked, "Where are you going to go in a deserted village?" Archaeology? ”

I didn't care, Song Lei said before, according to local customs, the wedding has to be held in their rural hometown, the population loss in the northeast is serious, especially in the countryside, after the young people gradually leave, there will be no one in the village.

When the taxi leaves the city, the road gradually narrows, and the mountains on both sides become more and more undulating, bypassing several hills, although there is still an asphalt road under the wheels, but looking at the scene outside the car window, it has completely entered the deep mountains.

There wasn't a single rival car on the road.

After walking for an hour and a half, I finally arrived at this small village called "Turnover".

It was dark, the dirt road in the village, just after a few days of heavy rain, the road was full of potholes, the driver refused to go inside, threw me at the end of the cement road, and soon, the headlights licked the bend on the mountain beam, and the sound of the engine disappeared.

The lights of the few houses in front of me are completely different from the village scenery in the impression of "the cicada noise forest is more quiet, and the birdsong mountain is more secluded", this dark village seems to be isolated from the world, and the dead silence is a little scary.

I called Song Lei and said that he was at the entrance of the village.

"Okay, old classmate, I'll come out to pick you up!" Song Lei said enthusiastically.

Almost at the same time as he hung up the phone, the lights in those houses suddenly appeared, and dozens of lanterns were lit up on the road.

Two minutes later, Song Lei came suddenly on a motorcycle, seven or eight years after graduation, but he has not changed at all, he is still the green appearance of the year, I guess, Xu is because of the Northeast landscape to raise people?

After a few pleasantries, I got into the back seat of Song Lei's motorcycle and bumped into the village, strangely enough, although it sounded like the village was very lively, as if everyone was helping him prepare for the wedding, but along the way, I didn't see anyone.

When I arrived at a house with a vermilion gate, Song Lei stopped the car and said to me with a smile: "Old Wu, you can sleep at my cousin's house tonight." ”

"Don't you need my help?" I asked.

"No, it's all arranged, we don't have so many projects for rural weddings, you can just follow me tomorrow to toast relatives and friends!"

"Then be as you please, anyway, don't be polite to me." I said politely.

As we were talking, the red lacquer door creaked open, and a girl who looked to be only about one meter five came out, her body was very thin, like a piece of paper, her face was fair, her small mouth was smeared with thick lipstick, and her eyes were big and unfocused, as if she hadn't woken up.

"My cousin," Song Lei introduced, "Sister, this is my classmate, Wu Chengfeng, there is no place in my house, let him stay at your house for one night, you are not allowed to bully him!" ”

Such a small one, can you still bully me? Hehe.

The cousin had no expression, turned around and walked towards the house, and it was seen that she weighed no more than 60 pounds, and her feet under the long skirt were light and fluttering, and she didn't even make a sound of walking.

Song Lei said that he was busy and asked me to have a good rest.

I went into the courtyard with my cousin, and came to the house, three brick farmhouses, the door open in the middle, and she led me into the one on the left, an antique room, simple but clean, except for a heavy smell of wet mold.

There was a brand new white quilt on the kang, and three basins of water were placed on the cabinet, as well as toothbrushes and towels, which should be used for me to wash.

"Well prepared, thank you cousin."

My cousin still didn't speak, turned around and went to another room, and closed the door with her hand, the light was not turned on in that room, and my cousin didn't move after entering, probably ready to sleep.

Lonely men and widows, I don't want to ask much, after a simple wash, turn off the light, and lie on the bed with clothes closed.

The musty smell in my nose lingered, like the smell of a stinky pond, and it smelled lethargic, and soon I fell asleep.

As soon as I fell asleep, the girl barged in and asked me eagerly, "Why are you living here?" How dangerous! ”

I said this is my classmate's cousin's house, what's the danger?

The girl frowned, opened her mouth several times, looked like she wanted to speak and stopped, and finally said: "Brother Chengfeng, you can't sleep!" Come up the hill to me! If you fall asleep, you will never wake up againβ€”β€”! ”

Before the girl finished her last sentence, suddenly, a rope flew out of the shadows, putting it around the girl's neck, so that she could not speak, I still dreamed for the first time that the girl was controlled, and I was anxious, and I wanted to go over to save her, but I fell into some kind of quagmire under my feet, and I couldn't move, and I saw that the girl was dragged farther and farther away by the rope until she disappeared.

Suddenly woke up, I reached out to touch the light switch on the wall, but I touched a handful of dry soil, and it was pitch black around me, fortunately, I have the habit of putting my mobile phone next to my pillow, I took out my mobile phone, turned on the flashlight function and took a photo - Nima!

I bounced off the kang and looked around in disbelief, the room I was in was no longer the same place I was, there were ruins everywhere, the roof was half collapsed, there was a pit in the ground, it was full of muddy rainwater, there were a lot of unknown bugs wriggling in it, and the musty smell came from here!

This is clearly an old mansion that has been abandoned for a long time!

I was a little confused, so I quickly put on my shoes and escaped from the door with my suitcase, but inadvertently, the flashlight flashed to the opposite room, the door had collapsed, and it was also dilapidated inside, and there seemed to be a person lying in the ruins.

I had a brain twitch for a while, and I thought kindly, could it be that the house collapsed and suppressed my cousin? Hurry over and try to rescue my cousin, but when I get closer, I am so scared that I jump on the spot like a cat!

That thing, it looks exactly like my cousin, but it's not my cousin!

It's one, paper man!
