Chapter 51: The Great Murderer

The first one is about snakes.

After Wu Huzi, a fellow villager who lived next door to him, got off work, his whole body was weak, he couldn't stand steadily, and his cloudy eyes were full of horror.

Wu Huzi is in his thirties and is in the prime of life, and Xiao Wu can come here to work, or he recommends it.

Wu Huzi said that when he was digging the foundation pit during the day, something happened.

When Wu Huzi lit a cigarette, his hands were so shaky that he couldn't press the switch of the lighter.

Xiao Wu helped him light a cigarette, he shivered and stuffed it into his mouth, and continued to talk to Xiao Wu.

He said that it was a white snake, thick and long, thicker than a man's waist, and longer than the vines of the old locust tree.

As soon as the shovel went down, the ground was stained red with blood.

Wu Huzi was frightened, and when he stopped the excavator and went down to look, he actually saw that there was a living snake in the same place!

A big snake with a pattern!

The serpent's venomous eyes looked at him with a venomous gaze, and a bright red letter came out of his mouth.

Wu Huzi was so frightened that his legs were weak, but fortunately, the piling worker went to work, and when he saw him standing still, he shouted.

The snake narrowed its eyes and walked away.

When Wu Huzi said this, he trembled even more and shook off the cigarette in his mouth.

Xiao Wu comforted him that he was just a livestock, so he didn't have to take it to heart.

Wu Huzi suddenly turned his head and looked straight at Xiao Wu.

"I remember very clearly," he said, "that the living snake finally squinted at me. But where do snakes have eyelids? How does it squint? ”

Xiao Wu's back was cold, his heart was hairy, and he couldn't speak.

I only heard Wu Huzi say to himself: "I have to go, I have to go." That snake must have been eyeing me......"

The next day, Wu Huzi resigned and went home.

Rumors began to circulate at the construction site that it was because there was no sacrifice to the heavens that such a thing happened.

Broken feng shui, this place is fierce.

The rest of the snake will definitely come back for revenge.

The foreman didn't care about this, he insisted on letting the dead snake be stewed, and the aroma wafted a few miles away.

The food on the construction site is not good, cabbage and radish all day long, and occasionally there is meat and fishy but only some meat foam.

It's been a long time since the workers have seen such a large piece of meat.

It wasn't just someone who stepped forward to serve a bowl of soup first, and then the workers ate the snake.

Xiao Wu licked his lips and his stomach gurgled.

But as soon as he thought of Wu Huzi's frightened expression, he gave up the idea of eating snakes.

The second thing, just yesterday.

There are more and more accidents on the construction site, and they are becoming more and more frequent, and even 10,000 degrees of care cannot guarantee to survive today.

The workers who had the accident had one thing in common, they all ate snake meat that day!

People on the construction site are panicking, and the construction progress is getting slower and slower.

Before leaving, several workers persuaded Xiao Wu to let him leave here, even if he went home to farm, it was better than losing his life inexplicably.

Xiao Wu hesitated.

At this moment, Dong Zhonghua was afraid that no one would work, so he raised the labor money left behind by 50 yuan a day.

When he learned that he could increase his salary if he stayed, Xiao Wu was ruthless and decided to stay.

Fifty is enough for him to eat steamed buns and pickles for many days.

He thought he wouldn't be so unlucky.

He is gambling with his life, gambling with money.

He thought of his mother when she had sent him out of the village and told him not to come back; I thought of my father staying in the crops all day, tending to the seedlings that could no longer grow.

The mother's cry was so harsh, and the father's spine was so bent.

He shouldn't have gone back, and he didn't dare to go back.

There was no way back for him.

Accidents happen unexpectedly.

There have been no accidents at the construction site for several days, and I heard that the big boss asked for a magic weapon to come back and stop the big snake.

The rumors gradually died down, and everyone was motivated.

Xiao Wu was seriously dusted, and he didn't notice that the sky was getting darker, and he didn't notice that all the people around him had returned to the dormitory.

The cold wind blew, as if something was hidden in the wind, and there was a wail.

By the time Xiao Wu came back to his senses, it was already completely dark.

The co-workers who were close to him all resigned, and the rest were not familiar with him, so no one reminded him.

Xiao Wu tightened his clothes, a little scared.

He turned on the flashlight on his phone and quickly ran towards the dormitory.

It's a long way from where you work to your dormitory, but it's not too far.

It usually takes about ten minutes to walk.

However, today Xiao Wu felt that this distance was so long, so long that he felt a little strange.

He paused, taking a closer look at the faint glow of his phone.

The surroundings are obviously inside the construction site, why do you feel so unfamiliar?

The trees here are so tall that they stand in the dark.

They were silent, silent, like corpses that were not yet dead, swinging their branches and uttering low cries when the wind blew.

Xiao Wu swallowed his saliva, remembering that his mother had told him that he should be careful when walking at night, no matter what he sees, treat it as if he didn't see it, follow a road, don't stop, he will always come home.

Xiao Wu walked forward briskly, his speed became faster and faster, and he even ran.

He ran and ran, and he saw that the dormitory was in front of him, but he couldn't get there.

The surrounding scenery is becoming more and more unfamiliar, but the surrounding roads are gradually flattening.

The light of the phone flashed, and an early warning of power shortage sounded.

Ten grids of electricity fell quickly, two legs kept running, and one heart panicked.

Finally, the phone turned off.

It was pitch black all around, and I couldn't see my fingers, and even the wind stopped.

Xiao Wu raised his head, and the moon was hiding in the clouds, without a trace.

Suddenly, he saw a bright light in the distance, yellow and unclear.

He hurried over and shouted, "Is there anyone?" Let's go back together......"

Before he could finish speaking, he stopped, like a fish bone stuck in his throat, unable to go up or down, and it hurt hotly.

He clearly saw a copper basin in the middle of the road, and paper was burning in the copper basin.

Yellow paper and gold ingots were scattered in the copper basin, and the flames were so high that they seemed to be as tall as a person.

Xiao Wu was so frightened that his legs were weak, his back was cold, and he was cold all over.

There is clearly no one around, who burns paper here?

The wind gusted, the flames soared, and the sound of "crackling" mixed with the howl of the shaking shadows of the trees made the scalp tingle.

Xiao Wu is extremely afraid, and the more afraid he is, the more cranky he will become.

It was as if he saw the burning yellow paper open his mouth and cry in the flames.

They're crying for help.

But, where did the yellow paper come from?!

Xiao Wu was frightened into a cold sweat by his fantasies, and he looked around.

The owl in the tree has two round eyes, green and oily; The dandelion under the tree shakes the frivolous body with white flowers.

In front of him was an eerie copper basin of burning paper, and behind him was endless darkness.

He gritted his teeth, when he was a bride, he had to cross the brazier, and crossing the brazier was a sign that the evil was eliminated, and it would be okay today!

He cheered himself up and walked around the brazier.
