Chapter 19: The Dog Cries and the Wolf Howls
At this moment, it is already more than 11:50 midnight, if someone stands on the highest building in the county and looks down in the direction of Ye Qian's family, they will find that there are no lights in the village at this moment, except for Ye Qian's family. The dark clouds in the sky are as thick as graphite hanging upside down, intertwining and colluding with each other, turning into feathers and gathering together.
Dark clouds only obscured the small mountain village on the outskirts of the city, and the county town was still brightly lit, and the moonlight was bright in mid-air, and the moonlight and starlight were frosty on the ground.
A torrential rain swept through the mountain villages on the outskirts of the city, and bullet-like raindrops fell from the sky and shot on the roof tiles, making a crisp sound. Iron doors, walls, leaves, glass windows, all of them were mercilessly beaten, and the ensemble made a knock...... A symphony of rambling.
A terrifying roar burst out from a corner of the village, and then overwhelmed the sound ......of rain and swept away in all directions like a huge wave.
"Woo...... Whew......"
With a click, the book fell to the ground, and Ye Qian woke up suddenly. "What sound?"
Outside the window was the crisp sound of heavy rain falling and the whirring wind, but other than that, the strange sound of howling was particularly harsh, and seemed to grasp everyone's heart.
"This ...... It seems like a dog crying? Lao Ye asked uncertainly.
"It's the dog crying! I haven't heard it in years, and maybe a wolf howl. But there are no wolves in our village. Liu Huixian replied. It's a terrible sound, I heard it when I was a child, when I was eight or nine years old, and I never heard it again. ”
"Come here, I'll hold you." Ye Guocheng opened his hand towards Liu Huixian.
Liu Huixian sat on Lao Ye's lap, and the two of them snuggled up and leaned on the sofa.
Seeing this scene, Ye Qian just wanted to roll his eyes. Dog crying? What is that? He wanted to ask, but looking at the state of the old couple, it was obvious that he was superfluous.
A heavy rain that lasted all night.
On the eastern hillside, there is a few glimmers of white light at night, and the village is quiet and serene after the rain, even filled with the smell of the earth left over after the rain.
In the living room, Ye Guocheng and his wife snuggled up to each other and slept soundly on the sofa. Suddenly, Liu Huixian couldn't help but twitch, and suddenly got up and shouted, "Xiao Qian...... Little ......"
Ye Guocheng was awakened by this sound, and immediately looked towards the corner of the living room. Ye Qian was crooked on the sofa, the books in his hands had been thrown on the ground at some point, and he was sleeping with his mouth open, when a sticky and transparent silk thread flowed out of the corner of his mouth and slowly fell on the armrest of the sofa.
"Ah...... What's wrong? Ye Qian woke up from his sleep, happened to meet two pairs of concerned eyes, and then quickly wiped the corners of his mouth.
"It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive!" Liu Huixian patted her chest, and her hanging heart finally let go.
Ye Qian got up, touched his whole body, and there was no discomfort anywhere, and immediately smiled: "Look at it!" Where are there any gods and ghosts, and there are no strange things that kill people. Everything was my second uncle, he talked nonsense, and we didn't sleep well all night. The next time I see him, I, as a nephew, will have to say a few words about him. ”
When Liu Huixian heard Ye Qian say this, she immediately wanted to open her mouth and go back, but after thinking about it, could it be that those terrifying scenes were fulfilled one by one? Then he shook his head and said, "When your second uncle comes, see if you dare to say it." With that, he turned around and went to the second floor to get ready to wash.
Ye Guocheng walked to Ye Qian's side and stared at the red mark on the back of his right hand again. "There is no best! But I look at this thing in your hand, I'm afraid it's going to make you believe it sooner or later. ”
Ye Qian put his hand away and said: "As long as you can see and touch something, there is nothing that modern science and technology can't solve." Just wait! I'll go to the hospital for a check-up in two days, and if it's okay, I'll burn it with a laser. ”
"Okay! I'm waiting! Comrade Lao Ye shook his head, and then went upstairs to prepare to wash.
In the blink of an eye, only Ye Qian was left in the entire living room, he raised his hand and carefully looked at the red mark on the back of his hand, and even dipped his saliva and rubbed it twice. It's really inexplicable! Ye Qian began to sigh in his heart: First of all, this thing does grow out of the flesh, and there is no way to rub it off. Second, the surface of the thing is smooth as a mirror, but it is not hard. Finally, the color is too oozing! From a distance, it looks like it has a bloody hand.
After the family of three finished washing, the old couple arranged their own tasks, and naturally they would not let Comrade Xiaoye go. Lao Ye is responsible for feeding the chickens and pigs, Liu Huixian goes to the vegetable field to weed, and Ye Qian is responsible for preparing lunch.
Full of work, all three of them are busy.
Ye Qian was cooking and was thinking about what to eat at noon, when the sound of ghosts crying and wolf howls suddenly came from outside the door. "Wow...... Wow......"
Follow the window and take a look! Hey! A delicate young woman, wearing pajamas and holding a child in her arms, was standing timidly at the door. She held the child in one hand and tried to cover the child with the other to block the crying that resounded through the world.
This person Ye Qian didn't know before, but after yesterday, he was more or less familiar, it was none other than Chen Yan.
It's early in the morning, holding a child to block the door, which one is this trouble? Ye Qian was a little confused, he wanted to open the door and ask, but when he saw that people were wearing pajamas, as a single C man with a mother and fetus, he was afraid that he would not be able to control his heart and see something that should not be seen, causing embarrassment for both parties.
Just when he was hesitating, Liu Huixian appeared from the corner in front of the door with a hoe on his shoulder. She heard the cry of a child from afar, and at first she thought it was a bear child who was cleaned up by the parents, until she saw Chen Yan's wandering figure, and she didn't understand.
Liu Huixian deliberately raised her voice and shouted, "Xiao Chen! Is there something wrong? Why don't you go in? ”
Ye Qian saw that his mother was back, and immediately opened the door. A strange scene appeared, when the door opened, the cry in Chen Yan's arms stopped abruptly, and the surroundings suddenly fell into an eerie silence.
This scene, not to mention Chen Yan, Ye Qian, who was a bystander, and his old mother were also stunned at the same time.
"What's going on? What are you doing standing at the door? When the door god? The three questions that struck the soul came from the old house, and Ye Guocheng approached with the smell of pig dung.
Chen Yan was not stupid, and immediately reacted and explained: "My Jin Fei called Mr. Yang last night to express his gratitude, and Mr. Yang pinched his fingers and said that my baby will do it again in the next few days, if it is really urgent and there is no way, I will come to your house...... Come to your house to find ...... Find Xiaoqian! Speaking of the back, a blush spread down her cheeks to the roots of her ears, and she lowered her head and did not dare to look around.
