Out of the hotel.

Li Mu learned that the road to the village was still under emergency repair, but motorcycles are currently available.

It is important to attend the funeral.

He found a motorcycle to go back to the village.

About half an hour.

The motorcycle drove into the village, and before he could reach my grandmother's house, he could hear the sound of sorrow and music.

Grandma and grandpa are both from the same village.

Li Mu's parents were also very close to each other.

In fact, this is also the idea of ​​the older generation. If you don’t want your son to leave or your daughter to get married, you have to get closer to get married, so you can take care of each other in the future.

My grandmother's house is not next to the main road of the village road, and after getting off the bus, she has to walk a short path to get there.

After getting off the motorcycle, Li Mu took out fifty yuan to the driver.

The motorcycle driver is also from the county. He looks about forty years old and honest. After taking the money, he looked around carefully and reminded Li Mu:

"Young man, are you here to attend the funeral, are you? I advise you not to get close to the mourning hall where the bodies are released..."

"What's wrong with the mourning hall?" Li Mu asked.

"I heard that something happened in the Liu family's mourning hall last night..." The driver's voice became smaller and smaller, as if he was afraid of being heard.

"What happened? Haunted?" Li Mu frowned.

The driver's face suddenly turned pale, and his right hand trembled and twisted the motorcycle's gas handle, without answering Li Mu's words, and ran away.

Li Mu was stunned for a moment. It seemed that my uncle and grandfather's death was not simple.

Last night, the mysterious phone prompted him that he would encounter "it" at the funeral.

And it is difficult for people who see "it" to survive!

Who is “it”?

Is it a ghost or a demon?

Following a path next to the village road, Li Mu walked forward.

Grandma's house is built in a valley. The path is very narrow and surrounded by lush weeds, which is not convenient to walk.

Li Mu was wearing a 361-degree sports suit. After walking for a while, he felt a little stuffy. He took off his coat and put it on his shoulder to continue walking forward.

In the right pocket of the jacket is a small square box with dark paper folded, and Wang Fang's ghost is inside.

It is almost a kilometer away from the small road to my grandmother's house, and you still have to climb over a small hill.

I remember when I was a child, I often tied the cow rope to the trees on the hills, and then ran to the side to play with mud and stones, or burned a pile of firewood to roast sweet potatoes, or went to the small river to suck fish and play in the water.

This is how the childhood of rural children basically comes through.

The house in Li Mu's family in the countryside is not far from here.

However, nowadays, most young men and women go out to work and only return to the village on holidays.

There are fewer and fewer people in the village, and the rest are all the elderly, weak and young.

This is not only a phenomenon in one village, but also in the whole country, the trend is in this way.

Climb up the hill in one breath.

The air in rural areas is really much better than that in cities, and breathing can make people feel refreshed. No wonder many people in cities now run to the countryside when it comes to holidays.

In addition to giving birth to Li Mu's mother, grandmother also gave birth to two sons.

Li Mu's two uncles were doing well outside. After his grandfather passed away, he repeatedly proposed to pick up his grandmother to live in the city.

However, my grandmother insisted on guarding her husband in the small mountain village, saying that she would guard her husband and buried him together after her death, so that her husband could not go to another world alone.

When he was a child, Li Mu occasionally heard people in the village whisper, saying that his grandfather died suddenly, as if something was hidden inside.

But every time he asks his grandmother.

Except for seeing my grandmother's face turn gloomy and even gritting her teeth, she could not get any answer.

Walk down the hillside.

He saw some plants on the roadside that looked like lotus leaves, but they were all black.

I remember that this black black plant was added to the weird things my grandfather drank for him.

Sudden.

He realized that his steps were getting heavier.

It was as if there was a rope behind him tied his waist.

I was shocked and turned around and looked back.

A vaguely, a tall figure stood in front of him, very blurry and could not see his appearance clearly.

Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow!

The tall figure came over.

Li Mu was shocked and wanted to retreat and pull out the axe behind him, but found that his body was out of control and could not move at all.

In the blink of an eye, the tall figure had already walked in front of him, stretched out his right palm and stroked it on top of his head.

cold!

Cold!

The tall figure's palm was like an ice brick, falling on Li Mu's head.

The chill spread from head to toe.

Li Mu was so cold that he trembled all over. He wanted to struggle but couldn't move at all.

A few seconds later.

The tall figure's palm evacuated.

But it did not leave, but stood in front of Li Mu and watched quietly.

A sense of intimacy.

A sense of intimacy arises naturally.

Li Mu suddenly felt that the tall figure who appeared in front of him had no malicious intentions towards him. It was also a kind of love to caress his head with his hands.

It seems familiar.

Crackling!

Firecrackers sounded at my uncle's grandfather's house at the hillside.

Then the sound of sorrow came.

Li Mu just looked up and was about to see who the tall figure was.

But after the sound of sorrow, the tall figure seemed to be very frightened and quickly retreated and disappeared.

"Xiaomu, don't go back, don't go back..." A hoarse voice of an elderly man came into Li Mu's ears.

The voice is very familiar, but I can't remember who it was for a moment.

Twenty minutes later.

Li Mu walked into the courtyard of his grandmother's house.

Grandma's house is a typical rural earthen wall tile house, and there is also a separate cowshed with some scattered dead branches and leaves on the ground in the courtyard.

Around the courtyard is a circle of bamboo-woven fences, which are covered with some vines, some are dry and some are just budding.

"Grandma." Li Mu shouted without a response.

I took a look at the door of my grandmother's house and was closed tightly.

It must be that my grandmother went to my uncle's house.

My uncle and grandfather passed away and the family was holding a funeral, so I definitely needed some help.

Think about it for a moment.

Li Mu turned around and prepared to go to his uncle's grandfather's house. He was only more than 100 meters away from his grandmother's house. Standing next to his grandmother's courtyard, you could see the white cloth floating in the funeral at his uncle's grandfather's house.

However, he frowned as he passed the vegetable garden next to the courtyard.

Vegetable garden beside the courtyard.

Grandma has always used it to grow vegetables.

Cabbage, green onion, garlic, lettuce, etc.

It is to pick it up nearby and eat it easily.

But the cabbage leaves in the vegetable garden were rotten, the onion seedlings were withered and yellow, and there were also traces of chickens and ducks crawling into them and gnawed them.

This shows that no one has taken care of the vegetable garden for a long time.

Li Mu turned to look at the courtyard and suddenly had a bad premonition.

Grandma is a clean person who cleans the yard every day, but the dead branches and leaves on the ground of the yard, coupled with the messy scene of the vegetable garden, shows that no one has taken care of these for a long time.
