Chapter 51 Doubts
Chapter 51 Doubts
Everyone looked at each other.
But Tian Dawei, who had a broken finger, obviously didn't intend to give anyone face.
"I'm disabled! Do you want to just let it go?" He pointed at the old village chief's nose and cursed.
The movement at the entrance of the village quickly spread throughout the village, and soon, the sound of numerous doors opening was heard.
Skinny, dark faces stretched out from the cracks in the door and looked towards them.
Even a fool like Tian Dawei shuddered.
Nothing else...it's just that these villagers with half their bodies sticking out from the cracks in the door are too ugly.
No...or should I say...it looks too weird.
Although they are not deformed or disabled, their facial features are extremely weird. Some have surprisingly small eyes, and some have surprisingly large mouths. In short... they are full of weird incongruity.
"We will compensate..." After hearing Tian Dawei's words, the old village chief was still polite.
Tian Dawei snorted coldly when he heard this, but did not make any more trouble. The old man said this in front of everyone. If he defaults on the bill then, he will have reason to make trouble.
"Grandpa."
At this time, the young woman who had been supporting the old village chief suddenly spoke.
"It's getting dark."
These four simple words made the old village chief's expression change slightly, and he quickly said: "Let's go...go back to the house first."
At the same time, the villagers who stuck their heads out of the cracks in the door quickly closed the door without making a sound.
The old village chief walked in a hurry, as if something was chasing him.
A few minutes later, just before the sun set, the group finally arrived at the village chief's house.
The old village chief's home is quite spacious, but it definitely can't accommodate thirteen people.
"I'm sorry, everyone. There are only three vacant rooms here. I'll ask you to make do with the floor tonight." The old village chief looked at everyone apologetically, "When it gets dark tomorrow, if you still can't leave, I'll put you all in Arrange to stay temporarily in other people’s homes.”
"What?" He Miao was the first to disagree. She hugged the corgi that had become very sluggish since entering the village, and said: "No! I'll give you money, you... you let me live in a single room! ”
"Get the hell out of here! I didn't even mention living in a single room when I was injured. Who do you think you are?" Tian Dawei's face turned pale. Although the blood from his severed finger was stopped by plant ash, the pain was still there.
This made his already bad temper even more irritable and irritable.
"Oh... I think this is it. There are three empty rooms for men, one for women, and we can discuss who will live in the remaining rooms. How about it?" Mr. Chen Qingshan came out to smooth things over.
"Village Chief, the seven of us are friends from the same town. Can you arrange a separate room for us? It doesn't matter if there are no beds. Let's chat, pass the time, and take a little rest." Lin Yan also said what she said about herself idea.
Of course, her words are what most people agree with. After all, she represents the thoughts of six people.
Tian Dawei made trouble for a long time, but still gained the advantage due to the large number of people.
Bai Yanliang and his party were assigned to a large room, the floor was laid, and they went in to rest first, regardless of how noisy Tian Dawei and the others continued.
Bai Yanliang placed Yu Sheng, who had difficulty with his legs and feet, on the floor. Yu Sheng thanked her quietly, then leaned against the wall quietly and looked at everyone.
This room is quite big, and it's not too crowded for seven people.
Mainly because they hadn't planned on all sleeping in the first place.
"There are seven of us, let each of us keep vigil for one hour." Yu Hanzhou said. His opinion was very pertinent and no one expressed any objection.
It is simply impossible to sleep peacefully in a village like this where one knows there is a ghost, so... cooperation is very important.
"What do you think of this village?"
Huang Yourong, who had been standing, also sat down and looked at everyone with his legs crossed.
"This village chief is weird." Lin Yan said with a twinkle in her eyes after hearing this, "It will take five or six minutes to walk after the village chief's home enters the village, but before the dog barking came out, the village chief and his granddaughter appeared. They were only around for about two minutes. Where were they at that time? Why did only a young man named Xiao Bin appear in the entire village, except for the village chief and his granddaughter? "
Lin Yan's question is also everyone's doubt. There is something wrong with this village that can be seen with the naked eye.
The door of every house is covered with an iron cage covered with black cloth. Villagers who are locked up at home and dare not go out...
“What the granddaughter of the old village chief said just now is also very strange, ‘It’s getting dark soon’. Could it be that... something will appear after dark that scares them?”
Huang Yourong answered.
"Mr. Bai, what do you think?"
Bai Yanliang was also leaning against the wall, seemingly in a daze, but suddenly he heard someone asking for his opinion.
Moreover, this person turned out to be Li Mu?
Bai Yanliang didn't hide anything. He looked at everyone and expressed his thoughts: "The village chief's granddaughter mentioned the homecoming sacrifice, and the word "sacrifice" was also mentioned in the explanation. I have been thinking, "Sacrificing blood without intention" is What do you mean, until just now?”
His words cheered everyone up. Could it be that Bai Yanliang has unlocked the hint of understanding?
"The old village chief said that he is the village chief of Jiuxue Village. Jiuxue... sacrifices blood. I don't think this is just a coincidence of homophones. The ghost this time is probably related to the homecoming sacrifice."
Bai Yanliang's statement won everyone's approval.
"Well, what Mr. Bai said makes sense. We should start by investigating the Homecoming Festival. Maybe there have been accidents in this festival and some people who shouldn't have died were killed..."
"Or maybe it used blood as a sacrifice, and now...the dead people have come back for revenge." Su Qian sat next to Yu Hanzhou and spoke clearly.
"I... also made a discovery." A soft voice sounded from the corner.
Everyone looked at him and saw that it was Yu Sheng who was speaking.
"Just now...all the way here, I saw that all the houses in Snow Village have no windows."
Um? !
Yu Sheng's words made everyone startled at first, and then suddenly realized.
"Let me tell you... Why do I always feel that the buildings in this village have an inexplicable sense of oppression? It turns out that's the case!" Huang Yourong clapped his hands and sighed.
Bai Yanliang glanced at Yu Sheng and saw that she was looking at him, so he nodded slightly.
window?
Why don’t the villagers in Jiuxue Village build windows?
"Do you think they are afraid that something might peek at them outside the window?" Huang Yourong suddenly said thoughtfully.
Huang Yourong's statement is quite scary. If that's true, then... what is that thing that appeared outside the window?
Li Mu subconsciously touched his fingers, which was his habitual action when thinking.
This time, he is a stalker, and as a stalker on a survival mission, he will almost certainly be targeted by evil spirits.
Therefore, Li Mu's goal from the beginning was not to survive for three days, but to find the hidden rule like Qi Nian, and then... get rid of it!
