When the old madman died, he left me only three last words.

1. Whoever comes to the village, the men may enter, but the women must be driven away.

2. I had to sit at the entrance of the village every morning, and pretend to be a fool during the day.

3. At night, I have to stay at home, and after burning the paper money, no matter what sound I hear or what happens, I can't leave the house even half a step.

After explaining these three last words, the old madman let me learn to be a fool and laughed twice, and after seeing that I had learned well, he swallowed his breath without any nostalgia and passed away with a smile on his face.

Later, I learned that his smile was laughing at the fact that he was finally free.

I was eight years old.

It was also picked up by an old madman and lived in this dry village for the fourth year.

Our village is called Niang'er Village.

In my impression, this village is a dry village, only me and the old madman, from the day he picked me up, the old madman took me to do every day is to sit at the entrance of the village, smirk at the entrance of the village, sit until dark, eat, drink and Lazar are all solved on the spot.

There are no people, just hehehehe, the wild dogs passing by will shake when they see them, for fear that the old madman will roast them in the next second.

But I know that old madmen aren't really crazy.

Every night, the old madman seems to be a different person.

Not only did he not giggle, but he also grew vegetables and chickens, did laundry and cooking, and even taught me to read and write, which is a bit of a magic stick, because after the old madman had done all that, he would sit at the door with a brazier and burn paper money in the brazier.

And every time he burned a piece of paper, he would kneel on the ground and kowtow, and muttered something that I couldn't hear clearly, and the only thing he knew for sure was that every time he burned the paper money, he burst into tears, as if he was very sad.

I asked him a few times who he was kowtowing.

The old madman just rubbed his eyes and smiled, "You'll know later." ”

After this, it will be more than ten years.

Of course, that's all for later.

After the old madman left, I was the only one left in the village.

Naturally, I inherited the mantle of the old madman, and the pile of paper money in the firewood room that came from nowhere and was piled up.

During the day, according to his last words, he smirked at the entrance of the village to scare the wild dogs.

At night, he used the brazier he left behind to burn paper money, and kowtowed by the way.

Of course, I never know who the paper money was burned to, I don't know who the head knocked on, I only know that this is the last words of the old madman, I just do it, after all, it wasn't the old madman who picked me up and adopted me, I guess they are all dead, the old madman is gone, I can't chill his heart, let him die blindly.

Although his smile when he left, it was really a little underwhelming when he thought about it later.

At first, I was a little uncomfortable.

Niang'er Village was originally deserted, but originally because there was an old madman, it could be regarded as a companion, and I was left alone when the old madman left, and it was false to say that I was not afraid.

It's fine during the day.

When I burn paper money and kowtow at night, I always feel that there are a pair of eyes staring at me, and every time I am scared half to death, I almost pee my pants, which makes me think several times that the old madman is not there anyway, I will simply leave this Niang'er Village.

But when I think about it, I have nothing but the house left to me by the old madman, where all I need to eat, drink, and sleep, and if I leave, I will be a beggar nine times out of ten.

And I was only eight years old at that time, and I had stayed in Niang'er's village with the old madman all these years, and even if I was a beggar, I didn't know where to beg for food, and I might starve myself to death when the time came.

So I just stayed.

However, every night after burning incense and kowtowing, I would close the door as soon as possible, lie on the bed and fall asleep, not daring to take off my clothes.

Not to mention, it still had some effect at first.

After falling asleep, I woke up and it was dawn, and there was nothing wrong.

It's just that the good times don't last long.

Probably three years after the death of the old madman.

In the past three years, I feel like I'm going to be the second old madman.

I burned the paper money as usual and lay down on the bed, and after falling asleep, I had a dream directly, and the Niang'er Village was very lively in the dream, but just like the name Niang'er Village, the people who appeared in the dream were all girls.

They are both young and old, especially the one who lives across the door from me is a beautiful young lady.

The young lady is in excellent shape, every time she is half-covered red veil, her figure is perfectly displayed in front of me, although I was only eleven or twelve years old at that time, I couldn't help swallowing saliva when I saw this appearance in my dreams.

Every now and then, the young lady would stand at the door and look at me and smile at me, as if it was going to take my soul away.

I had this dream for three days in a row.

But every time I wanted to go to her, I felt a wet feeling underneath, and I didn't know if it was bedwetting, but it was sticky anyway, which made me very uncomfortable, so I woke up.

When I woke up, I looked at Niang'er Village outside, and it was the same as before, deserted.

And the house that the young lady appeared in her dream was even more like a picture that would fall apart if the wind blew and blew it.

I was a little disappointed.

But on the fourth day, he didn't have that dream anymore.

It was also on this day that a man came to the village.

It's a man, and he's the second person I've seen in all my years of living in this village besides the old madman.

However, this man is very strange, as soon as he came to our village, he said that Niang'er Village is a man's paradise, saying that he had been looking for Niang'er Village for a long time, and he finally found it.

When he entered the village, it was as if there were many people in the village, and from time to time he said hello here, and one person over there was talking and laughing to himself.

Looking at the way he looked, I wondered at the time.

It's hard to wonder that people outside like this kind of deserted village as much as the old madman.

I couldn't help but curse in my heart that I was sick.

I just think he's a real fool, and I don't bother to pay attention to him anymore.

Until the evening, when I took out the brazier to burn paper money as usual, I suddenly heard a woman's voice in my ear, she said: "Li Xuantian, you burn more ...... for your sister"

"Don't be as stingy as Lao Litou......"

"My sister is about to get married!"

When I heard these sounds, I was frightened, and subconsciously looked around, but what I saw was just a gloomy place, but I was still scared in my heart, so I subconsciously grabbed more paper money and threw it into the brazier.

Because the old madman is surnamed Li.

Li Xuantian is my name.

It made me think to myself that it wasn't an auditory hallucination.

The next day, however, I was dumbfounded.
