As we all know, no living people can live in the underworld.
Anyone who lives there will at least suffer from diseases and everything will go wrong.
In severe cases, it may lead to disasters and even death.
There is a soul-inducing lantern hanging at the entrance of the village in front of you, and every household inside has a soul-beckoning flag. Looking up, you can see the dark mountain behind the village like a tomb.
It totally looks like a grave!
If this wasn't a ghost house, I would rip off my own eyes and step on them like a bubble!
I turned off the tricycle and looked at the village in front of me quietly, feeling a little hesitant.
Under normal circumstances, even experts in the industry would not be willing to rush into such a strange village without knowing the situation.
But the address my boss gave me is indeed this.
Anjia Village.
It was written clearly on the broken wooden board next to the soul-inducing lamp.
Logically speaking, the boss will not harm me. Since he asked me to come to Xu Senlin, it means that he must trust him.
In other words, this village, which is arranged like a ghost house, looks very dangerous on the surface, but in fact it is nothing.
But what if?
What if Xu Senlin has been gone for a long time?
I thought about it for a long time, then parked the tricycle outside the village and walked quickly forward with my bag on my back.
No matter what, it’s here, and you have to go and see what’s going on.
Anyway, the spell on my body is still there, I'm afraid I'll die if I can't find Xu Senlin.
The village was quiet, the buildings on both sides of the street were all dark, and there seemed to be no one around.
The cold wind blew by, and the soul-calling flags overhead made a clattering sound. Some people's windows and doors were not strong enough to make creaking sounds.
I didn't dare to speak, but walked quickly along the street.
This village is not big, with about fifty or sixty households.
For a family of three, there are less than 200 people.
There are tuck shops, fruit shops, and a small barber shop on the street.
When I reached the end of the street, I saw the village committee.
This is a blue building. The gate is an iron fence, and there is a vertical sign hanging next to it, which says Anjiazhai Residents Village Committee.
I looked up and looked inside. I didn't see the flag representing the country. Instead, I saw a neat row of coffins.
The coffins are all red coffins with water, and there are at least seven or eight in number.
I noticed that the concrete floor in the yard was very clean, not even a drop of fallen leaves or dirt.
It's like someone is cleaning it regularly.
This village committee was so weird that I didn't dare to enter rashly. I just shouted loudly: "Is Mr. Xu Senlin here?"
It was quiet and there was no movement inside.
At that moment, I jumped up and climbed to the roof.
I stepped on the tiles and walked forward carefully. After taking a few steps, my body became stiff.
Because I found that in the yard of every house, there are more or less several coffins.
Some have only one coffin, while others have two or three.
This is clearly a ghost village!
How could a normal village be like this?
I stood on the roof and walked around twice, feeling terrified. I was wondering if I should go back first and wait until daybreak.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a house at the end of the village suddenly lit up with orange lights.
Although the light is not very bright, it is clearly the light emitted by incandescent lamps!
I felt happy and walked quickly along the roof.
After getting closer, I saw an old man wearing clothes walking out of the house.
He held a bouquet of incense in his hand, quickly planted it on the ground, and whispered to the coffin in the yard: "A friend is coming over! Don't be angry!"
"I'll give you a bouquet of soothing incense tomorrow!"
After finishing speaking, the old man looked directly at me with bright eyes.
He said in a deep voice: "Where did this young boy come from! If you don't want to die, come here quickly!"
I jumped down from the roof and said, "Old man! Is this Anjia Village?"
The old man said impatiently: "There was a sign on the way into the village, didn't you see it?"
I asked again: "Does Mr. Xu Senlin live here? I am the night shift manager of the Nanshan Funeral Home in North China. The boss Zhang Sanfen asked me to come to him."
The old man looked at me carefully and sneered: "It turns out that Zhang San also made mistakes sometimes. Are you the only one? Are you qualified to hold this position?"
"I am Xu Senlin!"
I didn't expect that this old man was Xu Senlin.
Because some of the guys burying corpses I met on the road seemed to have said something, what if old man Xu comes back tomorrow?
At that time, I subconsciously thought that Mr. Xu was not at home.
The guy in front of me was the one who could save me, so even though he spoke harshly, I still suffered from it quietly.
I said respectfully: "Mr. Xu, I'm still young. Although I'm not good at it now, it doesn't mean I won't be able to do it in the future."
Xu Senlin suddenly became happy and said, "You have a free and easy personality."
"Okay, for Zhang San's sake, you go in first, so as not to be caught and used as a scapegoat!"
He lit a reddish oil lamp and then opened the fence to let me in.
I didn't think much and walked quickly into the yard. I don't know why, but my eyes always looked towards the coffin involuntarily.
Xu Senlin said: "Don't look around!"
He opened the door and said, "Come in and talk!"
I followed him into the house, and when I saw the orange lights in the house, the depressing and gloomy feeling quietly dissipated.
Xu Senlin took out the thermos kettle and poured me a bowl of water and said, "What's your name?"
I hurriedly stood up to get the water and said, "My name is He Yongheng, and I have only been employed for less than half a month."
Xu Senlin added: "Zhang San, the old man is a transparent person when nothing happens. He only thinks of me when something happens."
"Boy from the He family, tell me, why did you come to see me?"
I opened my mouth to talk about the little cursed corpse in western Sichuan, but when I thought about how weird this village was, I swallowed the words and changed my words: "Old sir, what on earth is going on in Anjia Village?"
"Where are the villagers?"
"Why is there a coffin in every house?"
If I don't understand this issue, I won't dare to tell this old man.
Besides, he said he is Xu Senlin, is he?
Just now those guys said that old man Xu was out.
The boss said that people in our line of work need to be very thoughtful.
In order to avoid being killed by unknown people, I won't be able to say anything even if I go to the Palace of Hell.
Xu Senlin sneered and said, "You're quite young, but you're quite thoughtful."
"For Zhang San's sake, I won't hide it from you either."
"This village is a Yin-Yang village, where the living live during the day and the dead live at night."
"The living sleep in the house during the day, and the dead sleep in the coffin at night."
"Boy from the He family, if the old man hadn't been so kind as to take you home just now, do you think you could survive tonight?"
