After a while, snoring came from the east room. Tan Xuan and Xiao Di looked at each other and smiled, and continued to discuss their plans in a low voice in the west room.
In the evening, the female director surnamed He came over to take a look at Xiao Di. She also brought some food and drink and told Xiao Di to pay more attention to rest. As for why she came by herself, her explanation was that Director Wang drank too much in the afternoon.
He was still drunk. No matter what, Tan Xuan and Xiao Di, who looked "sickly", expressed their sincere thanks.
When it got dark, Xiao Di knocked on the door of the east room, intending to ask Er Lingzi to get up and have something to eat together, but Er Lingzi's drunkenness was not over yet, so she agreed without getting up. She looked into the room from the window.
, only saw a dark shadow on the kang. It seemed that Er Lingzi was sleeping soundly at this time, so Xiao Di did not continue to call her.
"Since she is still sleeping, let's eat. We have to go out after eating." Xiao Di returned to the west room and said to Tan Xuan.
Tan Xuan shook his head, "If you're not hungry, let's eat again when we come back. It will be inconvenient to eat too much for a while."
"That's okay too."
He usually talks back, but when doing business, Xiao Di still listens to Tan Xuan. After all, Tan Xuan has experience.
By around seven o'clock, it was completely dark, so Tan Xuan went down and put on his shoes.
"Let's go out."
"Okay." Xiao Di agreed. After getting dressed, he turned off the lights in the room, and then followed Tan Xuan to climb from the kang through the window and into the small room at the back.
When Tan Xuan was about to open the window at the back, Xiao Di pulled Tan Xuan's sleeve and reminded: "Do you think the elder sister will wake up in a while? She won't come to find us, right? Then she will find out.
We're not in the house anymore."
Tan Xuan stopped what he was doing, paused for a moment and then said: "Then I will use some means to keep her from waking up for a while."
Tan Xuan pushed open the door of the hut, and came to the door of the east room in the dark. Hearing the snoring in the house, which was still deafening, Tan Xuan gently pushed the door. The door was not locked. He didn't know if it was a door reserved for others or not.
Forgot to lock it, anyway, it was completely convenient for Tan Xuan, and there was no need for him to find another way to pry the window and pick the lock.
Tan Xuan tiptoed into the room, walked to the edge of the kang, dipped his fingers in some saliva, drew a pattern on his left hand under the bright moonlight outside the window, and then gently placed his hand on the sleeping Er Lingzi's forehead.
"Um!"
Erlingzi frowned in her sleep, closed her eyes and wiped her forehead, then turned over and continued to sleep soundly. There was no sign of waking up, but she fell into a deeper sleep.
Tan Xuan tapped Er Lingzi's lower abdomen again and then walked out of the house. Hearing an even louder gurgling sound behind him, Tan Xuan no longer tiptoed as before and even helped close the door.
"What did you just do to her?"
Xiao Di asked in a low voice. When Tan Xuan entered the house just now, she was only watching outside the door. However, the light in the house was limited, and Tan Xuan's body blocked all his movements, so Xiao Di didn't see anything.
Tan Xuan chuckled, "I didn't do anything. I just slightly disrupted the aura in her body, which will ensure that she sleeps until dawn without waking up at all."
"You won't make her seriously ill by doing this, right?" Xiao Di asked worriedly. After all, he had experienced it personally, and now he still feels scared when he thinks about it.
Tan Xuan shook his head, "No, it just disturbs her aura and makes her sleepy. It has no other effect on her. Even if there is a ghost, she won't see it." Xiao Di curled his lips, "
She sleeps like this, and she doesn't even know when a ghost is coming. I have to be able to open her eyes if I want to see her."
"hehe……"
Tan Xuan did not continue to argue with Xiao Di on this issue. After checking that the door was locked, he took Xiao Di and climbed out of the window at the back of the small room. This was the route that Tan Xuan had observed during the day.
The house was also very dark, and the moon in the sky was so stingy that it only exposed a little of its skirt. Although the ground it illuminated was not blinding, the visibility was really poor, especially since there were no such things as street lights in this village.
The ground behind the window was uneven, with one foot deep and one foot shallow, causing the two of them to stumble and stumble before taking two steps.
Looking at the dark village, Xiao Di couldn't help but exclaimed: "Oh my God, what time is it? Why is this village so dark and no one turns on the lights!"
Indeed, the entire village was pitch black, and the ground under the moonlight was at least a little bright, but the scattered houses on the slope were all dark, and the entire village was deathly silent, revealing an incomparable feeling.
It's weird, giving the impression that every house is not inhabited by living people sleeping, but by dead people who have died without any vitality.
Xiao Di subconsciously hugged Tan Xuan's arm and said in a slightly trembling voice: "I remember that the village was not so dark last night. What is going on today? Why do I feel something is wrong?"
Tan Xuan sneered and said: "It's just something is wrong. The people in the village must have been instructed to turn off the lights and sleep when it gets dark, otherwise it wouldn't be like this. But this further proves that the wedding tonight is not normal.
I just don’t know who is really sleeping in these houses and who is pretending to be sleeping.”
Tan Xuan got used to the darkness for a while, then took Xiao Di and walked around the corner to the crop field in the south of the village. There was a row of sparse groves on the edge of the field. They groped along the grove to the east of the village. There was no other way.
Although the road in the village is easier to walk, it is too obvious. Who knows which family is not sleeping? Just look at the street and you can spot them immediately. Fortunately, there is a path in the woods that has been stepped on by the villagers. Although it is not wide,
But it's still smooth, just pay attention to the tree roots lying on the ground under your feet.
Walking halfway into the village, you can see the lights on the empty field to the east of the village. Compared with the dark village, the lights there are simply bright.
The shed made of plastic sheets in the empty field is still there, and the pots and stoves outside the shed are the same as yesterday, but there are no cooks in front of the stoves and no figures of those busy people from yesterday. Although there are still people crowded around, the number is not even a fraction of yesterday's.
Less than.
With the light, Tan Xuan and Xiao Di moved much faster. When they reached the end of the woods, they ducked down and used the cover of piles of corn stalks in the field to sneak up to the shed.
The curtain at the door of the shed has been lifted at this time. The old man wearing glasses that Tan Xuan and Xiao Di met yesterday is sitting at the door. There is a table behind him. From a distance, he looks like a bookkeeper.
The lights in the shed were all on, and the decorations were still the same. I saw Wang Cheng directing a few strong men to serve dishes to each table. The cow Moo'er was among them. The dishes should have been prepared in advance. There was no trace of it.
It was very hot, and no one spoke during the whole process. Communication was all based on gestures, and there was no woman or child present, so it looked a bit weird.
After the food and drinks were put on the table, Wang Cheng and the others stood behind the old man wearing glasses. He said nothing and didn't even look around. At this time, he no longer looked like a village director, but like an obedient person.
The subordinates were waiting for orders from the leader, but it was the old man who seemed to be the leader of this group of people.
The old man took out a pocket watch from his pocket and checked the time, then turned to call Wang Cheng over and whispered a few words. Wang Cheng nodded, waved his hand to greet the others into the shed, and after working hard for a long time, he took it from the stove outside.
He picked up some things and entered the shed, then returned behind the old man with glasses.
"What are they doing? Why do they look like they can't speak?" Xiao Di asked Tan Xuan in a low voice.
Tan Xuan snorted and said expressionlessly: "It's not that they can't speak, it's that they dare not speak."
"What do you mean?" Xiao Di was confused.
"Because they are afraid of saying the wrong thing and causing trouble. It's okay to hurt a living person. If it's not a human thing, then it's not a trivial matter."
This location was not chosen well. Although it was close to the shed, it could not see the full view inside the shed, so Tan Xuan took Xiao Di and moved to the side again, and found a place with a good view, but a little further away.
"Let's rest for a while. It's still early now. I guess they will have to wait until Haishi to get down to business."
It seemed that the bureau's bending over and pouting was too uncomfortable, so Tan Xuan lay directly on the pile of corn stalks. It had been a few days since the end of the autumn harvest, and the fallen corn stalks had dried a lot. He lay on his back.
It was moist on top and didn't feel damp at all.
Tan Xuan not only got down on the ground himself, but also pressed Xiao Di next to him, and then pulled some scattered corn stalks to cover them.
Tan Xuan said with a smile: "This is great. It doesn't cost anything to watch the show, and the party ticket is also paid. We can just lie down here. Now even if they come to us, they won't be able to find that there is something hidden in the pile of corn poles."
Where are the living people? If you feel uncomfortable, it doesn’t matter if you move a little. It’s dark right now and they can’t see what’s going on here.”
Xiao Di turned his head and looked at Tan Xuan, who was very close at hand, and said, "You haven't told me what they are doing yet? What kind of show are we going to watch tonight?"
Tan Xuan leaned towards Xiao Di, "I told you earlier, they are going to hold a wedding, but it's just a little different."
"Have you brought all the equipment? You can put it out in advance. You will definitely be able to see a different wedding tonight."
"Why is it different?" Xiao Di asked puzzledly.
"You'll find out in a moment." Tan Xuan deliberately pretended, then took out a plastic bag from his pocket and grabbed a handful of soil.
"Lower your head."
Tan Xuan raised his hand and threw the dirt in his hand on him and Xiao Di.
Xiao Di glared at Tan Xuan, a little annoyed, and shouted angrily: "What are you doing?"
"Let's pretend. As long as we don't move now, let alone people can't see us, even things that aren't people can't see us."
"Well……"
Xiao Di fell silent. She knew what Tan Xuan was talking about, and she immediately became nervous and excited. She quietly placed all the equipment she was carrying in front of her and pointed the camera in the direction of the shed.
Now that the equipment is in place, we just don't know when the actors will appear.
