In the evening of the next day, Geng Laojiu, who was the mayor of the town, was squatting alone in his yard smoking dry cigarettes. For a whole day, this dry old man, who was over half a hundred years old, was almost annoyed to death by the townspeople.

Niu Dali's death caused an uproar in this town, in fact, the death of a person in the town is not a big deal, but last night, Niu Dali's strange death did make everyone who saw it shudder. For a while, all kinds of sensational rumors spread far and wide, stirring up the already panicked town, and it was even more chaotic.

So much so that during the day today, when the people in the town saw the pile of charred bones under the old locust tree, no one dared to step forward for a while.

Thinking of Niu Dali's charred corpse, Geng Laojiu unconsciously thought of another thing. He took a deep breath of the cigarette pouch and pot, and swallowed the smoke with a click, and the old man, who had half of his body in the coffin, muttered in a trance:

"No...... What a coincidence......"

At this moment, the door of the courtyard was vigorously pushed open from the outside. A young man with a hoe in his hand and sweating profusely rushed in.

I saw that he ran to the water tank without saying a word, scooped up a large scoop of water, and poured it down.

Looking at his frizzy son, Geng Laojiu scolded angrily:

"You're fucking in a hurry to reincarnate, what are you doing here?"

With a long breath, the sturdy young man said breathlessly;

"Dad, you don't know. Since the incident of Brother Strong, no one in this town has gone out at night. Our brothers had the courage to wander around the town twice, and they all ran back. Let me tell you, this thing is too evil, you say that our town is haunted, is it haunted?"

A heavy cigarette pouch pot was smoked on the butt of this unfortunate son, Geng Laojiu scolded angrily:

"Bastard, where the ghost came from! We're walking straight, and we're afraid of that lonely ghost!"

Somewhat obscenely took two steps back, and the man named Chunsheng argued:

"But Dad, if it weren't for the haunting, how did Brother Dali die yesterday? Have you ever seen a blue fire? That's a ghost fire!"

The old man who was squatting on the ground stood up all of a sudden, pointed to his son's nose and reprimanded:

"You kid still dare to talk back, why haven't I seen the blue fire, then ......"

Suddenly, the old man, who thought of something, suddenly closed his mouth.

Seeing his father's expression, the man who had also experienced the tragedy asked with some trembling:

"Dad, you say...... Isn't it the east end of the town...... Doctor Ling, she ......"

Syllable!

A heavy slap was slapped on his son's mouth, and the dry old man lowered his voice and reprimanded:

"Shut up! What is Doctor Ling!When has there ever been a doctor surnamed Ling in our town!" Geng Laojiu looked around nervously, and then ordered: "Go back to the house and sleep! There have been strange things in the town these days, so you can go to the county seat and invite a few masters who know magic to take a look." I don't believe it, a few lonely ghosts can still make a fuss!"

Rubbing his aching cheeks, Geng Chunsheng walked back to his room with his head bored. At the same time, the door of the main house opened, and a middle-aged woman who looked a little rich cautiously walked out.

She comforted her son who had been slapped inexplicably, and then walked quickly to Geng Laojiu's side, and complained in a low voice:

"I said, old man, why are you so angry? You can't blame our family for this, why are you beating him?"

He snorted heavily, and the dry old man muttered angrily:

"You're a woman, you know a ball! I've been annoyed by the town's unseen turtles all day during the day, and when I get home, I have to listen to the nonsense of that useless boy. Just his appearance that he can't afford to bear it, it's really a shame for my old Geng family!"

Seeing that the old man of her own house spoke more and more in a heavy tone, the middle-aged woman opened her mouth and comforted:

"This can't all be blamed on our family Chunsheng, Niu Dali's stubble is weird, why did you say that a big living person was burned alive?" Hey, hey, that's crazy, don't mention it. During the day today, a few villagers in the town who saw the strange thing last night were talking about it, how could such an evil thing come out for no reason. Everyone is wondering, is it that the demon girl surnamed Ling has come back to take revenge? Our old arms and legs are dead, but Chunsheng's child is still young, and he hasn't even married his daughter-in-law yet, why don't we let him go to the county town to avoid it first?"

glaring viciously at his own mouthy mother-in-law, Geng Laojiu lowered his voice and scolded:

"What are you doing with these idle things, a woman who has never seen the world! I am the mayor of the town, and our old Geng family has been the mayor of this Qingshui Town for three lifetimes. If he Geng Chunsheng dares to run away at this juncture, Lao Tzu must break his legs!"

His eyes looked coldly into the darkness at the east end of the town, and the dry old man said in a hoarse voice;

"When you are alive, you are a scourge, and when you die, you will not stop and make waves here. You wait, Lao Tzu doesn't care what kind of mountain ghost you are, as long as I, Geng Laojiu, am still in Qingshui Town for a day, I will never let you, the demon girl, get good fruits to eat!"

Spat heavily, the dry old man dragged his mother-in-law into the house, and as he walked, the old man muttered:

"His grandmother's, I'll go to the county seat in person to find a really capable master to subdue that thing!"

As the dim candlelight went out, the largest courtyard in the town fell into a deathly silence.

At this moment, on the roof of the courtyard and the surrounding walls, dark blue points of light suddenly appeared. Those strange points of light flickered as if they were breathing, and there were thousands of them as far as the eye could see. Those small insects, which were only the size of fingernails, slowly spread their wings, and then swarmed towards the house where Geng Laojiu's family lived.

Geng Laojiu, who was sleeping, suddenly felt something strange on his body, as if something was crawling on his body. In a haze, the dry old man slapped it down.

The next moment, a strong burning sensation came from his stomach. Screaming and sitting up, Geng Laojiu looked around in horror. I saw that in the house where he lived with her mother-in-law, there were hundreds of fireflies emitting a strange blue light lying on their stomachs. And in his stomach, there was a worm trying to burrow into his flesh.

Frightened by the scene in front of her, my mother screamed, and the dry old man hurriedly pushed the old woman next to him. But as soon as he turned his head, he saw the woman who had lived with him for half his life, her eyes wide, and she was convulsing all over. In her mouth, several fireflies burrowed into the woman's esophagus one after another, and on her body, there were already clouds of dark blue flames bursting out from under her skin.

Rolling out of bed in fright, the usually high-spirited old man rushed to the door like crazy. But what he didn't expect was that the group of strange insects that ran out of nowhere in the house actually flew up all of a sudden. The swarm of insects emitted a bright blue light and crashed towards the old man's body.

A moment later, the door of Geng Laojiu's house was slammed open from the inside. A figure wrapped in blue flames staggered out, the figure withered, burned and unrecognizable. Large chunks of charred skin peeled off his body, and the burning man only took four or five steps before he fell to his knees with a thud. The two legs under him were burned to the bone.

Struggling to crawl forward a few times, the old man named Geng Laojiu looked desperately at the room where his son lived. A heart-rending howl resounded in the night sky, and the last picture the old man saw before he died was his son, who was not yet thirty years old, rushed out of the house with his skin peeled open.

The courtyard of the Geng family was engulfed by ferocious flames in an instant. The faint blue flames reflected the night sky in a radius, and the people nearby were all alarmed by the great movement of the day, and they looked at the place where the flames burst out in horror, and from time to time, there would be one or two fireflies burning like ghost fires, flying out of the fire.

The burning insects didn't fly far before they fell to the ground, but none of the people in the town dared to approach the corpses of the insects that had already been burned to death.

They just watched in horror and silently waited for the dawn to come.

Three hours later, the fire of the Geng family gradually went out, and at the same time, directly east of the town, a round of orange-red sun slowly climbed.
