The lights in the room were not turned on, and the bright moonlight only shone into the room not far away. As for the inside, it was completely dark.
The few passengers outside were still approaching me at a leisurely pace. I hesitated for a moment, stepped into the room, closed the door casually, and fumbled to turn on the light.
Although I don't come back often to my hometown, I can always find the light switch. With a soft "pop", the whole room brightened up, and there seemed to be no movement outside the door. I just relaxed, but my eyes were fixed on the front of the living room.
In the living room, that is, the main room, on the innermost wooden chair, there are two old men in black sitting on the left and right, looking at me without any emotion in their eyes.
Before I could react in a hurry, the door behind me was about to open with a "squeak" sound. I hurriedly resisted it with my back, and then threw the Thunder Talisman I had been preparing towards the crack of the opened door, doing All this, my eyes have never left the two old people sitting on the chair.
"Wu Rui is back? Why are you blocking the door?"
The voice outside the door was very familiar, it was the second aunt who my mother asked to clean the house, but thinking of the strange behavior of the villagers, I didn't open the door hastily, but spoke directly.
"Second aunt, I'm resting, come back tomorrow."
The second aunt seemed to be stunned outside the door for a long time, and then said strangely: "You are resting, what about your uncle and aunt?"
Uncle, aunt, I repeated it strangely, then opened the door, took a few steps back, and leaned my back against the wall.
The door was opened suddenly, but the second aunt didn't seem to be surprised. Standing outside the door, she slowly turned her head to me, staring at me with straight eyes. The second aunt, who always spoke carelessly, said in a low and slow tone: "Didn't you rest yet?"
The second aunt's tone made me feel hairy, but the ancestral spirit stone on my body didn't respond at all. I didn't know what was going on, so I took off the backpack silently, put it on my chest, put my hand in the backpack, and No matter what kind of talisman paper it was, I grabbed a few pieces and held them in my hand.
The second aunt looked down at my package slightly, then raised her head and said to the two black-clothed old men above: "Master, aunt, go back and rest."
The two old people stood up and staggered towards the door. My eyes kept switching between the old man and the second aunt. Behind the second aunt, the passengers were standing in the yard, holding their hands high. He raised his hand and waved to me stiffly, exactly the same as the previous villagers.
The two old people walked to the side of the second aunt, turned around slowly, then raised their hands together with the second aunt, and waved slowly towards me. Everyone's movements were the same, looking like a well-adjusted machine.
I grabbed a handful of talisman papers and threw them directly. I could see that those talisman papers included lightning talismans, exorcism talismans, and amulets, but to my surprise, the talisman papers fell on Second Aunt and the others. It was useless at all, and slowly fell to the ground as if touching a living person.
And the second aunt and the others didn't seem to see the talisman paper, and their movements didn't change at all.
how so? I felt more and more uneasy in my heart, and directly changed into a ghost body, turned into a wisp of black smoke and turned around the door, and the door of the house was closed instantly with a "snap", isolating all the strange appearances.
But I didn't have the slightest sense of security. The moment I turned into a ghost, the second aunt, the old man, and the passengers all disappeared from my sight, just like being in a minibus.
What's going on here, I also don't have a little yin, and I can't see it in the ghost state. I sat on a chair decadently, and I couldn't figure it out no matter how I thought about it.
I didn't go back to my room to sleep. Although the talisman paper seemed useless, I still used the talisman paper to seal all the doors and windows in the living room. I didn't go back to the room to rest, but found a chair in the living room and sat down, of course not the one that the two old people sat on.
What happened tonight completely overturned my thinking. Neither the passengers nor the second aunt obviously met the requirements of ghosts, but saying that they are human is completely my self-comfort.
But what is it? I thought about it for a long time, and suddenly thought of a person I had seen before, to be precise, the corpse I had seen before, which was the strange corpse in the car accident of my third aunt. I didn't think these people were the same as corpses, but On them, I saw many things similar to corpses, and I slowly defined them in my heart, that is, living corpses.
It's not just an ordinary living corpse. As for why it's not ordinary, I'm not in the mood to visit it now. I'll wait until tomorrow morning to talk about it. I don't think those passengers will give up like this after following me for so long.
Besides, what worries me even more is the villagers, whether all the villagers will become living corpses like my second aunt, and what do they mean by waving at me.
I didn't rest all night, until the next day, when the sky was bright, I moved my body and walked out of the room with a tired face.
The passengers from last night were gone, as were my second aunt and the two elderly people. I was thinking about going to my second aunt's house to see what was going on, when I saw my second aunt walking towards me with something.
The second aunt's face was full of smiles, and there was still a long distance between them, so the hearty laughter came over: "Wu Rui, when did you come back, wait to go to the second aunt's house for dinner."
Second Aunt's behavior is exactly the same as I remember, I subconsciously relaxed, walked over, and asked, "Second Aunt, did you come to see me last night?"
The second aunt looked at me suspiciously: "No, what's the matter."
I looked at my second aunt, and using the simple judgment method I learned from Wu Jian, I thought my second aunt should not have lied, so I smiled: "It's okay, it's just that someone knocked on the door last night, I was sleepy at the time, so I didn't get up open."
"Oh." The second aunt suddenly realized, and then she was puzzled again: "Who could it be? I didn't tell anyone when you came back."
"I don't know, maybe it was blown by the wind."
The second aunt nodded, asked me to wait at her house for dinner again, and then left. I looked at the back of the second aunt, but my heart was full of doubts and incomprehensions.
The current second aunt is no different from before, and I can't see any signs of second aunt lying, but when I looked at the second aunt's back, I realized that the clothes second aunt was wearing were the same as last night. body.
Did Second Aunt really become a living corpse
I suddenly thought of the few villagers I met last night, hurriedly walked along the small road in the village, and used different excuses to meet those villagers, but I was horrified to find that except for one or two villagers, I could not Except for sure, the other villagers were dressed exactly like the ones I saw last night.
And they all said that they didn't go out last night, let alone met me.
Could it be that everyone in the village has turned into living corpses? I can't believe my thoughts at all. Silently walking towards home, there are a few children playing on the side of the road. The youngest ones don't know each other, but the older ones do.
I thought about it, went to the small shop in the village, bought some candy, walked to the place where the children were playing, and waved.
"Little guys, come here and share the candy."
As a result, the familiar children immediately cheered and ran towards me, and the unfamiliar children were stunned for a moment, but ran forward without showing any sign of weakness.
It's not convenient for adults to check, but children are still okay. If everyone in the village turns into living corpses, will children still be human? After distributing the candies, I picked up a little boy and put it on my lap. I am most familiar with this little boy because he is the grandson of my second aunt and also my cousin.
"You little mud monkey, look at you, you will really find a job for your grandma."
The child giggled in my arms and kept licking the candy in my hand. The villagers passing by joked and laughed in good faith.
With a little apprehension, I took the child's hand and slowly felt his pulse.
