I turned around suddenly and saw a piece of tile blown to the ground by the wind.
I half-squinted my eyes and frowned suddenly. At first glance, there didn't seem to be any sinister energy here, but it gave me a gloomy feeling.
"Tianju, be careful!" Tian Xiaorui said softly.
I nodded and took a step slowly. The dark wind blew by, and there was a whining sound around me, as if someone was crying in the night.
My eyes swept over the surrounding buildings, and I felt the dilapidated atmosphere rushing into my mind anytime and anywhere.
I didn't stop until I reached this ancient village. Under my feet, there happened to be a crossroads, and there was a sign hanging at the intersection.
"Yin Yang Road!" I stared at the sign, feeling a little uneasy in my heart. It was really surprising that this street would have such a name.
"What should I do?" Tian Xiaorui asked.
I lowered my head and didn't have any good ideas at the moment. Li Zheng said that the death curse would give a clue to Tonggu Village, but now that I have arrived at Tonggu Village, I am a little confused about what to do next.
.
"Tianju, do you want to find someone to inquire?" Tian Xiaorui asked softly.
I shook my head, "Inquire? How can we inquire? Everyone who has experienced this incident is dead. Even if we want to find someone to inquire, I'm afraid we won't be able to find anyone!"
Tian Xiaorui fell silent.
I took a deep breath, glanced at the ancient building next to me, and walked up hesitantly. After knocking twice, I yelled, "Is there anyone there?"
The surroundings were empty, but my voice seemed to still be echoing in the Tonggu Village.
Sighing, there may really be no one in this village, this is a dead village.
After reaching out and pushing open the door of the house, I saw some antique furniture inside, all of which were covered with a fine layer of dust.
My eyes swept over the furniture and saw the stairs at the corner. After hesitating for a moment, I walked up slowly. The soles of my feet stepped on the stairs, making a creaking sound. It seemed that the stairs could be broken at any time.
split.
I took a deep breath and walked straight to the second floor. The furniture inside seemed more primitive.
"Tianju, look..." Tian Xiaorui said hurriedly.
My eyes fell on the furniture again, and there was no dust on it. Why was there dust on the first floor, but not any dust on the second floor?
With some curiosity in my heart, I walked slowly to the front of these pieces of furniture, stretched out my fingers and lightly traced them. Sure enough, there was no dust at all.
My eyes flickered for a while, and just when I was about to step back, there was a creaking sound suddenly from behind. I looked sharply at the stairs and found that there was nothing on the stairs. Since there was no one, then
Where did the creaking sound come from?
"Who are you?" At this time, a hoarse voice suddenly came over.
I turned around suddenly and saw an old woman staring at me nervously in a room on the second floor.
My scalp was numb with fright, and I almost screamed at her voice. This old woman looked to be in her sixties, and her face was full of wrinkles. The most important thing was that she was wearing a raincoat, and her eyes were
He stared at me blankly, looking a little empty.
"I...I was passing by!" I said hurriedly.
The old woman was still staring at me, as if she wanted to see through me. When I saw this look, I felt a creepy feeling in my heart. This look was really scary, and it was difficult for me to get used to it.
"Passing by? Passing by Tonggu Village? This place is so remote, how could anyone pass by?" The old woman said coldly.
Seeing that I couldn't lie, I laughed hastily, "Auntie, I am... There was an accident at my house. Some people said that coming to Tonggu Village can drive away evil spirits and avoid disasters! That's why I came all the way here...
…”
"It turns out I'm here to worship!" The old woman breathed a sigh of relief and walked out of the house slowly, making a creaking sound under her feet.
I stared at her face and secretly entered the netherworld. I found that except for the strange appearance of this old woman, everything else was normal.
"Sit down, since you are here, you are a guest!" the old woman said, pointing to the chair in the distance.
I laughed dryly, hurriedly walked over, and slowly sat on the chair. After sitting down, I felt that the chair was a little cold, and it was obvious that no one had sat on it for a long time.
"Auntie, are you the only one in this village?" I asked awkwardly.
The old woman turned around and glanced at me with the same sinister look.
"There are still people..." the old woman said coldly.
I breathed a sigh of relief. I didn't expect that there was no one on the street, but there were still people in this house.
"There are ghosts too!" the old woman said coldly again.
I was stunned for a moment, then said with a dry smile: "How can there be ghosts in this clear sky?"
The old woman stared at me and didn't say anything. She turned around and poured a glass of water in front of me. I took the glass and found that the water was a bit cold, giving people a chilly feeling.
.
"Since you are here to worship, let's stay here. The day of worship will be in three days!" The old woman glanced at me and said coldly.
I was stunned, "Stay here? In three days? Since it's three days later, I'll come back in three days!"
"No!" the old woman shouted sharply.
I was startled and looked at her hesitantly, "Why?"
"Those who come to offer sacrifices must have a peaceful mind. The world outside will pollute people's souls. Only in this Tonggu Village can your heart be purified!" The old woman said softly, and then said: "Don't worry.
Okay, just stay at my place tonight and don’t go anywhere, I promise you’ll be fine!”
A flash of embarrassment flashed across my face, and I felt a little creepy in my heart. This old woman was very weird. If she really lived here, I don’t know if she would be in danger. Besides, the taxi driver told me clearly that she would be in danger if she really lived here.
I have to leave before dark, but looking at it now...
"Tianju, I think it's better for us to leave!" Tian Xiaorui said softly.
My eyes flashed, and I responded in my mind: "If we leave, we can't go to sacrifice, then..."
The old woman glanced at me, turned around and entered her room.
I was sitting alone on the chair, feeling a little embarrassed. After all, I was considered a guest when I came here, and I didn't know what to do when I was being exposed like this.
Crash... At this moment, there was a sudden crunching sound behind him.
I turned around hurriedly and saw that the window behind me had been opened at some point, and the cold wind came in from the outside.
I hurriedly stood up and pulled the window sash. Just when I was about to close the window, I saw a woman kneeling at the intersection. This woman was wearing mourning clothes, and her whole body seemed to be white. In front of her,
There was also a pile of flames burning, with jet-black fireworks emitting from the flames.
My face changed slightly. Just when I was about to close the window, I happened to see the woman raise her head and look in my direction. This face was extremely pale, as if she hadn't seen the sun all day long, which made people feel unbelievable.
.
"That's a neighbor. She just got married to our village last year. Her husband died a year ago. Today is the first day of the seventh month. I think she is worshiping there!" The old woman's voice came from behind.
My expression changed slightly, and I quickly closed the window. The moment I closed the window, I noticed that the woman was running towards home in a hurry, as if she had seen something scary.
I turned around, looked at the old woman holding the quilt in her hands, and said to me: "You stay in the room next door at night. If you have nothing to do, don't come out! This village is haunted all year round, and it's no joke.
of!"
"Okay! Okay!" I agreed hastily. This was the second time that the old woman said there was a ghost, and I felt a little panicked. After all, everything in this place is full of weirdness.
I opened the door of the next room and found a cold feeling inside. This may be the unique atmosphere of southern Xinjiang. In the north it is generally cold and dry, but here it is damp, cold and gloomy.
Putting the luggage on the bed, I heard Tian Xiaorui say softly in my mind: "Tianju, I think there is something wrong with this old woman!"
"How do you say that?" I was a little confused.
Tian Xiaorui shook his head, "I can't tell. Let's be more careful at night. You can decorate the surroundings!"
I hesitated for a moment and thought Tian Xiaorui was right. Regardless of whether this place was really haunted or not, it was still appropriate to decorate it, just in case.
I took out the paper charms from my backpack, quickly arranged them around, and then made the bed.
"The food is ready, do you want to come out to eat?" the old woman's voice came from outside.
I nodded hurriedly, "Thank you very much!"
When I finished speaking, I hurriedly opened the door, and a figure flashed past in the room, which made my expression change slightly.
The old woman raised her head and gave me a cold look, "I don't know what your taste is, so just follow me and make do with it. The food here is limited!"
"It's okay! It's okay!" I said hurriedly, waving my hands as I said it.
The old woman held a chair by herself and placed the food on the table. I looked back and stared at the place where the shadow disappeared, feeling a little confused. Could it be that my eyes were dazzled just now? Or was there someone else in the room?
"What's wrong? Can't you eat?" The old woman asked softly when she saw that I was lost in thought.
