Chapter 70

There was no moon in the sky that night, and it was cold and dark in the mountains behind Tianguangdong Village. Walking on the mountain path, we relied on a flashlight in our hands for illumination.

I turned off the light, squatted next to a blueberry tree, wiped my eyes hard, and looked halfway up the mountain again.

Tang Gui was wearing a shroud and holding a paper white lantern in his hand. He turned around and smiled.

He walked down the mountain very quickly, as if he was walking on tiptoes.

"Yu...Brother Yu, is there something wrong with my eyes..."

Brother Yu also turned pale and asked me in a low voice: "This man is Tang Gui from the village! Didn't he drown long ago?"

I swallowed and said yes.

It is a fact that Tang Gui drowned. The appearance of a person after death cannot be faked. I saw Tang Gui fall out of the coffin at that time. His face was swollen and watery, and there were a lot of dark red corpse spots on the side of his neck. He was definitely dead.

A few days.

"What time is it now?" Brother Yu asked.

I looked at my phone and said, "It'll be one o'clock in twenty minutes."

"It's past 12 o'clock..."

Brother Yu turned pale and said, "Is it really a ghost?"

"Let's go down and have a look."

Brother Yu stood up and left. I gritted my teeth, turned on the flashlight and followed him quickly.

As soon as we got halfway down the mountain, we saw Tang Gui holding a paper lantern and turning a corner at the end of the path.

"Go, follow."

I didn't see the road clearly, so I tripped over a branch of a blueberry tree and got dirt on my knees.

I patted the dirt on my kneecaps and jogged all the way down the mountain. When I was approaching the entrance of the village, Brother Yu looked around.

At this point, all the villagers were asleep, and there was no one around. There was a small stone bridge at the entrance of the village, and we saw a few white paper lanterns falling on the stone bridge.

I boldly went over to pick it up and saw that the candle in the lantern had been extinguished. Brother Yu frowned and looked across the bridge.

From here on the bridge, walk more than a mile north to Guizailing. Walk south and you will enter the village.

"Brother Yu, why don't we go back first? Maybe we were too nervous. Maybe we were dazzled just now and saw wrongly. Tang Gui would have died long ago."

"You saw it wrong? Then we both saw it wrong? It's impossible."

"Do you still remember where his home is?"

"Whose family, Tang Gui's family?" I nodded and said I remembered.

Brother Yu doesn't know why, but he insists on going to Tang Gui's house to take a look, but I can't get him to do it, so I can only go on the way.

During the Chinese New Year, most of the couplets posted on the doorsteps of the villagers were still there, but the ones on the doorstep of Tang Gui's house were long gone. The door was closed and locked with a chain from the outside. The dust fell in front of the door but no one disturbed it. The house was in ruins.

Seeing the look in Brother Yu's eyes, I whispered: "Go over the wall? Goodbye, brother, Tang Gui's wife may be locked in the house."

Brother Yu whispered, "What are you afraid of?" What he meant was that if Tang Gui has a problem, come to his house and take a look and maybe you can find something.

There were a lot of broken glass scattered on the brick wall and cement. Brother Yu took off his down jacket, wrapped his hands, and climbed up the wall in two steps.

"Hurry up, come on, come up."

As soon as I stretched out my hand, Brother Yu pulled me up with one hand.

Jumping into the yard, we didn't dare to turn on the lights. It was dark all around and the yard was full of broken bowls, rags and other garbage.

It was so dark that Brother Yu didn't see it and accidentally stepped on a pool of human feces. The feces dried up and I don't know who pulled it.

"Fuck..."

Brother Yu cursed softly and rubbed his feet back and forth on the ground.

I pointed to the east room and whispered: "That room was the place where people died before. Before they were buried, Tang Gui's coffin was also placed in it."

When he got there, Brother Yu pushed the door open and found that it was locked. He went around to the window, wrapped his hands in clothes and smashed the glass with a punch.

The sound of the broken glass was a bit loud, and I looked back and forth nervously. When I looked back, Brother Yu had already crawled in through the window.

After entering the house, it was too dark to turn on the flashlight. Neither of us could see clearly, so we had no choice but to turn on the flashlight.

Holding a flashlight, he looked around at the furnishings in the house.

Two chairs fell to the ground, and a torn sheet was also thrown on the ground. There was a lot of dark red stain on the sheet.

Brother Yu bent down and found something under the chair. He opened it and saw that it was a photo album of Tang Gui's family.

I opened it casually and saw that the first photo was oxidized and yellowed. They were both still very young. They should have been taken in the old photo studio. In the photo, Tang Gui's wife was holding a handful of plastic flowers and looking down at the flowers with a smile on her face.

.

"who!"

I suddenly heard a knocking sound, a banging sound, which seemed to be coming from across the house.

We walked over quietly, leaned on the window and looked in.

In the room, Tang Gui's wife was sitting on the floor, her back to us, washing clothes.

I saw a washbasin placed in front of him, and the sound of "bang bang" was the sound of him banging clothes on the washboard.

"Doing laundry in the middle of the night?" Brother Yu and I looked at each other.

I saw Tang Gui's wife sitting on the ground, knocking on her clothes and saying: "You are still talking about me, your brother is not a human being, you fucking played with me, you pull it out and you don't recognize anyone else, he deserves to die."

"Am I a bitch? I'm a bitch and you still come back to me. You saved the taro and paid for it. I didn't dare to buy a piece of clothing last year, so I helped you pay off the debt. Now you're dead and you're still looking for me, you damn ghost."

"Who is she talking to? Tang Gui?"

"Where is the person?"

I looked around the room, but there was no one around. She was just knocking on her clothes and talking to herself.

It looks a bit eye-catching.

While watching, Tang Gui's wife slowly stopped her movements.

She suddenly turned her head and looked at the window and smiled.

Brother Yu and I immediately squatted down.

Brother Yu took two deep breaths, opened his eyes and said, "Damn it, you're pretending to be a ghost."

After speaking, Brother Yu stood up directly and kicked the door open.

Tang Gui's wife suddenly saw a bright flashlight and subconsciously put her hand in front of her face.

See clearly it's me.

She suddenly lifted up her top towards me. She was wearing nothing underneath and it was all white.

"Hehe, hehehe."

Tang Gui's wife squinted her eyes, laughed, saliva flowed down the corners of her mouth, her expression was very strange.

"Brother Yu, look!"

I turned around and saw a scene.

With a creak, the door slowly opened. Tang Gui was wearing a shroud, his face was as white as paper, and he was looking at us steadily.

"Fuck!"

Brother Yu took two steps back, grabbed the chair and threw it. The chair flew more than ten meters and hit the door with a bang!

When the chair fell down, there was no one at the door.

Brother Yu ran over with a flashlight, opened the door and came to the street, and I ran out after him.

There was no one on the streets in the village outside, and no ghosts were seen.

"Go, go, go back quickly."

I dragged Brother Yu back. It was past three o'clock when I came back. I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, so I got up and covered the window with a sheet.

Xiaoxuan yawned and asked me why I was blocking the window. I said it was nothing. I wanted to say that I had seen Tang Gui twice and she would definitely be scared.

I was so dazed that I didn't fall asleep until early in the morning.

I slept until about nine o'clock in the morning, and no one called me. I heard the landlord's voice.

When I came out, the landlord was saying to the boss: "I have to go to the west room to get something. I used to have a few piles of bowls in the room. Find them and use them."

Because there were two bags of bronzes hidden in the kang hole in the west room, he didn't dare to let him go in and look around, so he smiled and said: "Brother, I'm sorry, I was short of something before. We used those bowls, I'll give you a hundred yuan, you

Go buy some now, don’t be too little.”

"used?"

The landlord looked puzzled, but he was not polite and put the 100 yuan directly in his pocket, and then said: "The bowl is not valuable, but it is used for ordinary things in the village."

"You don't know yet, right?"

Tell me what you know.

The landlord whispered: "Don't let nonsense talk in the brigade. If word spreads, it will have a bad impact. If that happens, there will be fewer people like you coming from the city to live and travel in the future."

"At midnight last night, an old lady in our village got up and went to collect briquettes in the yard. She was frightened to death."

"It was a heart attack. Their family also said they saw Old Tang who had been dead for more than a month."
