Chapter 68 Ghost Village 2
Wu Xin and Leng Hanyi followed the little boy to a relatively good house in this dark night village. The little boy said, "The village head lives in it!"
"Thank you! Children." Leng Hanyi said.
The little boy smiled at her and said, "You're welcome! Sister, uncle, I'm leaving!"
Leng Hanyi turned around and stared unintentionally.
"It's none of my business this time! That's what he called." I have no intention to argue.
Perhaps he heard the voice outside the house, and the people in the room opened the door. A gray-haired old man came out. When he saw Leng Hanyi and Wu Xin, he said with a little surprise, "Where did you two come from?"
"Cangzhou!" Insently replied, "This old man is the village head, isn't he? Our brother and sister were eager to go and missed the inn. I wonder if I can stay here for one night?"
"I'm not talented. It's the village head here!" The old man said with some embarrassment, "It's no problem to stay overnight. It's just..."
"Just what? What does uncle have to say, but it's okay to say it!" Leng Hanyi said.
The old village head lowered his head and sighed, "To be honest, I'm afraid of scaring you two!"
"Oh?" I don't want to wait for the village head's next article.
The village head said, "Our village is called Night Village. As the name implies, it is a village that can only be seen at night. This is a cursed village. The villagers were all active at night. After dawn, the village disappeared and didn't appear here until night. Therefore, for decades, everyone who has been here has either been scared to death or regarded as crazy by people outside the village after leaving here. I'm afraid of scaring you two or causing you trouble.
Intentionally, he was a little silent: "Can the village head make it clear? Why is there only night here?
"Two people, sit inside! I'll tell you slowly!" The village head made a gesture of invitation.
Leng Hanyi followed Wu Xin, entered the room and sat down beside him.
The village head made them a pot of tea, sat down and said, "This village was not called Black Night Village. It was called this name because something happened here later.
"What happened here?" Leng Hanyi interrupted.
The village head lit a dry cigarette, took a few sips, and recalled, "Thirty years ago, there was a Xu Yuanwai in the village. His family had an only daughter, who was very beautiful and was old enough to leave the cabinet. Xu Yuanwai wanted to recruit a son-in-law, so he invited a group of people to make furniture at home. Among the craftsmen he invited was a young carpenter from other places. This person is honest and diligent, skillful, and handsome. After a long time, the daughter outside the clerk became familiar with the little carpenter, and the two of them talked very well. As a result, there was gossip from others. After creating a dowry for Xu Yuanwai's daughter, the craftsmen cleaned up the guys and left our village. Unexpectedly, that day, Xu Yuanwai asked someone to catch the little carpenter who was about to leave at the entrance of the village.
"Why did you catch him back? What's the matter?" I have no intention to ask.
The old village head sighed again: "At the beginning, we didn't know what happened? Later, I heard from the servants of the Xu family that Xu Yuanwai's daughter was pregnant. Xu Yuanwai suspected that it was the little carpenter who seduced his daughter, so he asked someone to take him back and beat him half to death.
Leng Han said disapprovingly, "Isn't it just pregnancy? Just be born and raise it. It's not that his family can't afford to raise a child!" Although unmarried pregnancy seems to be nothing in the coldness of living in the twenty-first century, in that feudal era, this was a big scandal.
The village head looked at Leng Hanyi like a monster.
Intentionally, she laughed and said, "My sister always speaks amazingly and speaks without going through her brain!" The village head doesn't have to pay attention to her words! Please go on, what happened later?
The village head continued: "Later... In fact, Xu Yuanwai is not a cruel person. He beat the little carpenter and was angry that he had ruined her daughter's innocence and ruined his family's reputation. I thought that the little carpenter admitted this matter and was willing to take responsibility, that's all. But the little carpenter didn't admit that he had that kind of relationship with his daughter. Mr. Xu was annoyed with him. He dared to do it and refused to take responsibility, so he hung him to the old well in the village. Threatened him to sink him into the well if he refused to admit it. However, the little carpenter's temper is stubborn. No matter how he threatens to beat him, he will not admit that he and his daughter are secretly doing things. I don't know whether God wants to destroy him or our village? The rope tied to the little carpenter suddenly broke, and the little carpenter fell into the old well. When we picked him up, he was already out of breath! Hey..."
"Ah? Just die like this? He is also unlucky! He was not beaten to death, but he was drowned. Leng Hanyi said, "So whether he has the daughter of a member or not..."
"Who knows!" The village head was also puzzled, "There is no witness for this kind of thing. Who knows if it's true or not? But it's true that the daughter has a big belly!"
asked curiously, "Then how did your village become like this?"
"Three days after the death of the little carpenter, that is, his soul night. His ghost wandered in the village and kept saying, 'You people who don't argue, you kill innocent people indiscriminately and wronged good people. I will curse you to live in the darkness forever and never see the sun!' At first, everyone only said this when he died and didn't close his eyes. Who knows, it didn't take long for our village to really have no day, and all we saw was the moon!" The village head said helplessly.
Leng Hanyi patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This little carpenter is really vicious! He actually cursed the whole village. She scratched her hair and said, "Then you can move out of this village?"
The village head said with a bitter face, "We also thought about leaving this cursed village. But the little carpenter cursed not only the village, but also the people in our village! As long as they are from this village, they can't get out of this village at all. Because the little carpenter didn't know where he learned some spells? At the entrance of the village where he was captured, he was cast. As long as the people in the village approached there, the bones would be gone. Even outsiders, when they enter this village, they have to wait until dawn to leave here.
"I didn't expect that this little carpenter would become so ferocious." Wu Xin frowned and said, "Village head, can you take us to the entrance of the village to have a look?"
The village head said with some fear, "What do you want to do?"
"I want to see what the little carpenter did at the entrance of the village? Maybe there is a way to crack it!" I have no intention to explain.
The village head said worriedly, "Young man, I also know that you are kind-hearted. You are a person who sympathizes with our village. But I don't want you to risk our village that has nothing to do with you. We have been like this for 30 years, and we are used to it! This is a crime committed by our villagers themselves. Who told us that no one was willing to stand up and say a word for the little carpenter?
"Village head, you can take us to have a look! Whether I can help you, it depends on the situation!" Leng Hanyi also felt sympathy for this poor village: in fact, the death of the little carpenter could not be all the people in the village. Who told him not to pay attention to his words and deeds? As the saying goes, there is no wind and no waves. If he didn't have enough restraint on his behavior, how could others doubt him?
"You two insist on doing this. I thanked you for the villagers in the village first." The village head got up and bowed to them.
Intentionally holding the village head's hand and saying, "The village head doesn't have to be like this!" Let's go and have a look first!"
The village head came to the entrance of the village with Wu Xin and Leng Hanyi, pointed to the big tree at the entrance of the village and said, "The little carpenter was captured here!" So after his death, he cast spells here to prevent the villagers from taking a step out of the village! A few years ago, some young people in the village did not believe in evil and tried to leave the village and invite strong people to break the little carpenter's spells. Unexpectedly, they crossed the tree and turned into dust and disappeared. After that, no one dared to take a step over the thunder pool, so he had to stay in the village peacefully.
"So awesome!" Leng Hanyi was terrranted.
I unintentionally looked around the tree. Indeed, there was a deep ghost around the big tree, like a huge net blocking there. Obviously, there is a boundary there! He didn't want to come forward to see what was going on, but he was pulled by Leng Hanyi. He looked at Leng Hanyi puzzledly.
"Don't go there!" Leng Hanyi looked worried, "What should I do if I hurt you?"
He looked at her strangely and smiled, "Are you worried about my safety?"
Leng Hanyi blushed inexplicably: "You are my second brother. Shouldn't I care about you?" She was a little annoyed in her heart: Damn it! Why do you always blush today? When did my face become so thin?
Unintentionally patted her hand: "It's okay! If you don't look closely, how do you know how to crack it?
"But..." Leng Hanyi also wanted to persuade him that he had taken her hand away and approached the big tree. Leng Hanyi suddenly gave birth to an unprecedented tension. She stared at Wu Xin, afraid that something would happen to him.
"Young man, you have to be careful!" The village head reminded.
Carelessly, he stretched out his hand to the invisible giant net that had devoured the light of the whole village for 30 years. A huge attractive tree attacked Wuxin aggressively. If it hadn't been for the psychological preparation just now, I'm afraid that it would have been sucked into the invisible giant net. He quickly withdrew his hand, took two steps back, and said with some lingering lingering, "What a powerful boundary!"
Leng Hanyi quickly ran to him and said with concern, "Are you all right?"
"How dare I have something to do with you here?" Unintentionally smiled and said that those eyes that used to have no emotion were strong at this time. It's just that Leng Hanyi doesn't understand it now.
The village head stood still in fear and asked, "How about it? Do you see any clues?"
Inadtentionally shook his head: "I didn't see that as soon as I got close there, I felt a powerful force attacking me and wanted to pull me in. This boundary should come from the hands of a master. It must not be what a little carpenter can do!"
"Are there any other master people to help him? Isn't this village finished?" Leng Hanyi was shocked. She has witnessed with her own eyes how Wuxin destroyed the black time. With his current mana, he is afraid of the boundary. Isn't these ordinary villagers only slaughtered by small carpenters? Even if the little carpenter dies unjustly, he can't be angry with the villagers in the whole village. Besides, who knows if he has ever had a secret knot with his daughter? If he is really a person who wants to run away after eating, then he will die! It's even worse to harm these people!
Inadtentionally pulled the village head and said, "Can you take us to see the well where the little carpenter fell into the water and died?"
Seeing that he had no intention to be safe under the tree, the village head naturally believed that he was not a general person, so he happily took them to the old well.
Near the old well, Leng Hanyi saw a nearly 50-year-old woman standing on the edge of the old well and hurried by when she saw them approaching. Leng Hanyi asked, "Village head, what is that woman doing here?"
"Oh. That woman is Xu Huijun, the daughter of Xu Yuanwai. She often comes here and doesn't know what she wants to do. In those years, the little carpenter killed Xu Yuanwai's family on the night of returning his soul. Somehow, he left Huijun's life. I think the little carpenter has some affection for her!" The village head said, "In fact, she is also very pitiful. Since our village became a night village, everyone in the village has brought their resentment to her. Every time Huijun went out, the women in the village scolded her when they saw her; when the men saw her, they either beat her or insulted her. In those years, she didn't dare to go out. In the past few years, she has lived a little better.
"Hey! She is so pitiful! The reputation is bad, and the family is dead. I still have to suffer from these tortures." Leng Hanyi, who is also a woman, couldn't help sympathizing with her.
Unintentionally feel sorry for Huijun's experience. No matter who was right or wrong, she was just a weak woman, and she certainly didn't want to see the current result.
The village head pointed to the old well and said, "The little carpenter drowned here. The former village head ordered someone to seal it."
With a wave of carelessly, the big stone sealed on the edge of the old well flew to the side like a piece of paper.
The village head looked at Wuxin in a daze: "It turns out that the prince is a master! Please forgive me for my old eyes." In the scene at the entrance of the village just now, he thought that he was unintentional. At this time, he saw the big stone that several people could move, and he was moved aside with such a casual wave of his hand. He is really convinced from the bottom of his heart
