Chapter 5: The Accident That Passed By

The next day, my mother got up, washed up quickly, returned to the bedroom and opened the box at the head of the bed. This red lacquered box was her dowry, the bright red paint had long since faded and turned into a dark red, and now her wrinkles were as many as the cracks in the box.

The mother took out ten yuan, thought about it, and took ten more yuan, at this time, the father spoke: "Weigh more meat, the two of us have not eaten meat for a month, I have been in a panic these days, I am afraid that I have not eaten meat to make trouble." ”

The mother smiled and said, "I know, it should be about the same as two catties." ”

The father said "yes", then got up neatly, came to Zhu Zijun's room and called: "Get up, get up and herd the cattle, if the dew is too late, it will be dry, the cow will not eat the dew grass, and it will not grow fat." ”

Zhu Zijun laughed silently, from today onwards, he should be an official farmer.

Zhu Zijun got up and wiped his face, and when he went out, he still felt a little dazed, he woke up several times last night, and he delayed too much sleep.

The old scalper seemed to have been waiting for him for a long time, and was shaking his head and tail very dissatisfied, and as soon as Zhu Zijun opened the door of the bullpen, it hurried out, as if it was afraid that it would not be able to eat dew grass.

Perhaps it was because of the rain last night, and the sky was a little cloudy, and the mist wrapped around the mountainside, like a huge ball of cotton.

The way up the mountain is first of all a steep rocky slope, and the cattle that pass by are generally afraid to go downhill, and only the cattle who are used to this road will walk boldly with confidence. Up the rocky slope, there is a long and steep road sandwiched between two mountains, lined with bamboos and trees, adding a bit of gloom to the morning after the rain.

Zhu Zijun suddenly remembered Zhu Jiajia's disappearance, remembered the dog's whimper last night, and his heart was a little hairy.

The old scalper seemed to understand his thoughts, and he was also moving forward, Zhu Zijun almost had to trot to keep up, at this time, Zhu Zijun felt that the old scalper was a little weird, it used to always walk slowly, and today it seemed like someone was trying to catch it, so that it had to speed up.

But Zhu Zijun didn't catch it, so who is chasing it?

Zhu Zijun's goosebumps popped up quickly, and he suddenly felt cold and scared for no reason.

Zhu Zijun shouted at the cow and told it to walk slowly, but his eyes were looking at the two mountains, hoping to find something, but he was afraid of finding something.

However, things are often bizarre coincidences, and the more you worry about what you are afraid of, the more you will confirm what you think.

Zhu Zijun saw a tomb, a new tomb alone, as if he was staring at him coldly.

There was no grave on this hill when I last went home, but maybe someone died not long ago. Zhu Zijun thought in a mess.

The tomb gave him a very uncomfortable feeling, he always felt that it was a false tomb, an empty tomb, or that the owner of the tomb was hurrying to the tomb, and he had to return to the tomb before the day was completely light, or he would be destroyed and never be reborn.

Fortunately, we are almost halfway up the mountain, and there is a huge lawn on the halfway up the mountain, which is also the meeting point with another road up the mountain, where there may be people, and more importantly, after the halfway point of the mountain, there is no longer a shade of bamboo and trees, and the light will be much brighter, so there will not be so much pressure.

Zhu Zijun couldn't help but speed up his pace, and as soon as he looked up, he was almost so frightened that he was about to scream - a person was hurrying down the mountain.

The man was wearing a hat, which was probably deliberately pulled low so that people could not see his face.

Zhu Zijun thought, what kind of face will he have? An ugly face, or a festering face?

However, Zhu Zijun suddenly had an extremely crazy idea - that person has no face!

It is impossible for a person to be faceless, if a person has no face, is he still a human being? What would that be?

Zhu Zijun felt that he was about to collapse when he stirred himself up, and he silently thought in his heart: I just scared myself, scared myself...... But he didn't dare to look up at the man, he was afraid that what he was thinking was the truth.

The two of them passed by quickly.

Zhu Zijun suddenly smelled a strange smell, like a rotten smell.

This should definitely not be the smell of people, to be precise, it is the smell of corpses. Zhu Zijun once smelled the smell of corpses, and the smell was so unique that it made him unforgettable.

Zhu Zijun was extremely nervous, he felt that this person was the owner of the tomb, it must be him, he came out last night to go on a date or hang out, and now he is hurrying back.

Zhu Zijun felt that the person did not stop at all, and continued to walk forward quickly, two people, a cow, and the footsteps suddenly became extremely loud: papa, pa......

The smell of corpses is gone.

Zhu Zijun mustered up the courage to look back, and was stunned for a moment, the person was gone.

How is this possible? There was absolutely no more than five seconds between passing by and looking back, and it was absolutely impossible for him to complete this two-hundred-meter-long mountain road in this short five seconds.

Maybe he's hiding, maybe he's back in the grave, taking off his hat and continuing to sleep peacefully.

Zhu Zijun suddenly regretted that he shouldn't have listened to his father's words and got up so early.

Maybe it's because of the contrast between my extreme relaxation and the extreme nervousness before the college entrance examination that I hallucinate, of course, this is completely reasonable in psychology.

Zhu Zijun was comforted a little, he even suspected that he hadn't woken up, so he had a strange dream while walking, otherwise, with his own guts, he would never be scared like this.

Thinking of this, Zhu Zijun seemed to have suddenly solved his troubles, and he smiled happily.

A person's life is wonderful, and every encounter may lay the groundwork for future life, so what about this time?

Or just an accident.
