I looked at the coffin maker named Wang. I was obviously very scared, but there was no expression on his face.
"You should be dead."
That day, my grandfather discovered that there was something wrong with the coffin that my grandma brought home. He immediately took me to the town to ask for an explanation from a man named Wang. However, after pushing the door open and entering, we found a corpse.
Now, the corpse actually came to life and appeared in front of me as a "master".
Is there anything weirder than this?
"Haha, it wasn't me who died, it was my useless brother."
Master Wang kept an evil smile on his face, walked up to me, pinched my chin with his hand and said,
"That old ghost Zhou Guohua (grandfather's name) doesn't know at all. I have a twin brother who not only looks the same as me, but also has a similar build. The corpse you saw that night was not mine."
I said oh and nodded numbly.
The man surnamed Wang was really smart. He used his twin brother's body as a thunderbolt and successfully deceived the grandfather, but he continued to do tricks in the dark.
In this way, Taigong can't do anything to him.
I closed my eyes in despair, "Then why did you want to harm my family?"
"Hehe, of course it's to get something from your mother."
Master Wang smiled, with many wrinkles appearing on his face covered with age spots, like a piece of old tree bark. His triangular eyes were fiercely exposed, and he stared at me coldly.
"Your great-grandfather is very smart. He realized that something was wrong and actually hid the things in your mother's coffin. In fact, I could have let these villagers go, but if I couldn't find that thing, I had no way to explain it to the people above, so I had to Continue to set up the evil formation."
His chicken claw-like fingers moved down and gently pinched my Adam's apple. With a little force, I immediately felt suffocating pain.
Master Wang emphasized his tone and his expression was extremely cold.
"Now, tell me honestly whether your mother left that thing to you before she was alive. If so, tell me honestly. As a condition, I can consider letting you go."
hehe.
Can you believe what this kind of person says?
Although I am young, it does not mean I have no brains.
What's more, I don't even know what the thing in his mouth is. As long as I can remember, my mother has always looked like a fool. Apart from staying at home and working, she usually never leaves the house or even steps out. He didn't even say much.
Although we are mother and son, we don't have much communication. Everyone in the family says that she is mentally ill, especially my grandma, who forbids my mother and I to get too close, saying that madness is also a disease and may be contagious...
I was immersed in my memories and didn't speak for a long time.
Master Wang got impatient and continued to exert force with his fingers. I felt suffocated. Only then did I wake up and struggled to hold back a sentence:
"I don't know what you're talking about!"
"You are her son. In this situation, the only one she can count on is you. How could she not give you something?"
Master Wang had a look of distrust on his face, put his aquiline nose against my face, and looked at me fiercely, saying, "I didn't expect you to have such a tough mouth!"
Whatever he said, I pretended to let him be dealt with.
He hesitated for a moment, then gently released his hand from around my neck, "You really don't know?"
I didn't speak, I just looked up at him silently, feeling strong resentment in my heart and wanting to remember this face.
"hehe!"
He smiled, "As expected of her descendants, they are born with strong bones."
Then he began to search my body, rummaging through all my pockets, wanting to pull off my underwear.
After confirming that what he was looking for was not on me, Master Wang had no choice but to stop his movements and throw me back to the ground.
"Boy, do you know what you will face next?"
I still didn't speak, my back teeth were bleeding from my bite, and I stared at him with my bloodshot eyes.
Master Wang smiled disdainfully, "I appreciate your stubbornness. I hope your bones will continue to be strong when you are on the road to hell."
After saying that, he walked out of the woodshed with a wicked smile and said loudly to the village chief who was guarding outside,
"This kid, like his mother, is full of resentment towards the villagers. He was the one who poisoned the well. The kid can't be kept. After the village chief sets up the altar, let him sacrifice the flag first. I want to use pure The Yangzhen fire burned him to the point of death."
My line of sight was blocked by the firewood shed, so I couldn't see their expressions. I could only hear the village chief gasping, "Treating a child in such a vicious way, Master, this..."
"Do you still want to resolve the disaster in the village?"
Master Wang silenced the village chief with just one sentence.
I heard a sigh, and then the footsteps of the two people gradually faded away, and soon became silent.
Time passed quickly, and with the setting sun shining through the window, I knew it was going to be dark soon.
As soon as it gets dark, someone named Wang will mobilize the villagers and burn me to death.
I don’t know if it was because I had experienced too many scary things, but I wasn’t particularly scared at that time. I just felt silently sorry for the village chief’s ignorance.
Even if they were obedient and burned me to death, I'm afraid Wang wouldn't let these villagers go.
Zhoujiagou's disaster was doomed early on.
Thinking of this, I started to cry again, not from fear, but from sadness.
Just when I fell into despair and had no choice but to accept all this, I heard very light footsteps coming from outside the woodshed.
who?
I immediately pricked up my ears and looked at the woodshed door cautiously.
After a creak, the door opened.
I saw a boy who was only seven or eight years old and had a tiger-like head. He was squatting with a bowl of rice and walked in timidly.
"Brother Zhou Xuan, the village chief asked me to deliver you a decapitation meal..."
I squinted my eyes and looked at the person who came. After confirming the identity of the person, I took a deep breath and said, "It turns out to be Huzi."
Huzi is the son of Widow Liu of Nishimura. He lost his father when he was young. He has a timid and cowardly character, but he has a tiger-like head and a tiger-like brain, which makes him very popular.
I am three years older than him, and I used to play with him picking up stones at the entrance of the village.
Looking at the food delivered by Huzi, I was a little confused, "Why did the village chief ask you to deliver the food? It will be dark soon and the village is not safe. You should go home and be with your mother."
"My mother, she is dead..."
Huzi's eyes were red, with crystal tears on his face, and he washed his nose timidly.
"What? How did your mother die?" I looked at Huzi in shock.
He bit his lip and choked up and said, "The well in the village was poisoned, and my mother died after drinking the water from the well."
My head buzzed and I silently clenched my fists.
I knew that the man named Wang would not let the villagers go, but I never thought that he would be so cruel!
Huzi looked at me timidly and bit his lip, "Brother Zhou Xuan, they all said you were the one who poisoned the well."
hehe!
I laughed miserably and asked Huzi, "Do you believe it?"
There were still sparkling tears hanging from the corners of Huzi's eyes, and he shook his head vigorously, "I don't believe you wouldn't do such a thing. My mother must have been harmed by evil people!"
I was stunned for a moment, partly out of gratitude for Huzi's trust, and partly out of curiosity.
Huzi is younger than me. What can an eight or nine-year-old child know? How can he be sure that there are evil people in the village?
Huzi sniffed hard and said in a small voice, "Brother Zhou Xuan, let me tell you a secret. Last night, I saw the man who poisoned the well."
