Although I didn't know why I was trying to close my eyes, I did as he asked.
What surprised me was that when I closed my eyes, the faint laughter, the miserable sound of the suona, and even the sound of the funeral procession were all gone!
The whole world seemed to have been pressed on the mute button. Except for my own heartbeat and breathing, all other sounds ceased to exist.
If this kind of quietness were normal, I would definitely be ecstatic, but in this dark night, especially when there is a funeral procession of Yin people not far away, in addition to feeling the ultimate eerie horror, I can no longer feel anything. There are no other emotions.
But I have to say that Zhang Hazi, as expected, came up with a solution in just a few seconds!
After those sounds disappeared, I realized that the only difference between Zhang Hazi and me was that I could see now, but he couldn't. So the reason why he can't hear the sound is probably because he can't see!
When I closed my eyes and stopped hearing those sounds, the uncontrollable feeling in my legs disappeared instantly. It seemed that the sound of the suona and the laughter of the children were bewitching my mind, making me unable to help but walk towards the funeral procession.
And once I walked into that funeral procession, I knew without a second thought that my fate would definitely be death.
But now I close my eyes and I can’t see. How should we get out of this hellish place? We can't let Zhang Hazi blindly drive a Hummer with his eyes closed again, right?
I can still see in the Six Paths of Reincarnation, but here I can't open my eyes at all. Let him open blindly and die faster!
Zhang Hazi said, get in the car first and wait until these dirty things pass by before making any plans.
Let me tell you, I can’t even see it, so why don’t you just leave?
He said, I have experience in this matter. If you catch me, I will take you away.
As I said that, I felt my palm being slapped by a slippery stick. It must have been that the bamboo stick had accidentally been knocked into the wastewater around the late-night snack stall. I didn't hesitate much. After holding the stick tightly, I followed Zhang Hazi's rhythm and walked forward step by step.
Even though Zhang Hazi was leading the way, he had never walked with his eyes closed before, and it was still an unfamiliar road, so he felt particularly insecure while walking. Therefore, I did not dare to lift the soles of my feet. Instead, I moved forward with the entire sole of my foot on the ground. Only after I was sure that the foothold was on the ground, I shifted my center of gravity.
This resulted in me not walking very fast, more like stumbling. I almost fell to the ground several times because I couldn't keep up with Zhang Hazi's rhythm.
But Zhang Hazi, who was walking in front, seemed to have no such worries. Not only did he walk steadily, but he could also adjust his pace at any time according to my rhythm. To describe it in four words, it was very stable!
But I don't know why, but when I think about how it took him five years to get used to life after being blind, from a person who can see, I feel an inexplicable sadness deep in my heart. This is what I owe him, and I only hope that I can repay this debt during my lifetime.
After walking for a while, I suddenly felt something was not right. Although I walk slowly, I have been walking for such a long time. Why haven’t I reached the Hummer yet? I remember that the car only parked not far behind us.
So I asked, Zhang Hazi, did Hazi come to Mai?
He said, soon.
I don't know why, but my voice is a little hoarse and unclear. I guess it may be because I scolded me too much and my throat was filled with wind and cold.
So I followed him and walked forward for a while, and then the further I walked, the more I felt something was wrong, because at this speed and time, I had already walked dozens of meters, and there was no way I hadn't reached the Hummer yet!
So I asked again, hasn't it arrived yet?
As before, he only said two words: soon.
I felt something was wrong, and I thought, could it be that Zhang Hazi took the wrong path, but he didn't want to admit it due to his pride?
I thought it was very possible, so I didn't expose it to avoid hurting his self-esteem.
With this idea in mind, I followed him and walked a little further, because I was afraid that the sinister funeral team would catch up. I felt that my heartbeat was speeding up due to nervousness.
It's not that I'm timid, it's that humans don't feel safe when they can't see, especially when they know that there are a lot of unclean things on this street, and they can still kill people. Who would it be? Even in my position, I may not be able to calm down.
The thumping heartbeat was like a hammer, accompanying my footsteps, hitting my nerves over and over again, causing my already tight nerves to tighten again, threatening to break at any time.
That kind of fear of the unknown can drive people crazy!
Wait, footsteps?
Why do I only hear my own footsteps until now?
Logically speaking, without the bamboo stick as a stepping stone, when walking, Zhang Hazi would definitely not dare to lift the soles of his feet and walk forward step by step like normal people. Instead, he would walk with the soles of his feet against the ground like me. .
Because only in this way can you ensure that every step you take, you can step on the real ground, and you will not fall into the air and eat shit!
But the actual situation now is that apart from the sound made when I walked, I didn't hear the sound of the second sole rubbing against the ground at all!
Even if Zhang Hazi really walks normally, he is not a cat and will make footsteps when the soles of his feet hit the ground. Why in such a quiet environment, from the beginning to now, I haven't heard it once?
After understanding this, I could no longer remain calm. I had to open my eyes and take a look to see what was going on with Zhang Hazi walking in front of me.
And I thought that even if I opened my eyes secretly, it wouldn't be a big problem. The big deal would be that I just stopped walking the moment I opened my eyes. As long as I confirm Zhang Hazi's situation and clearly see the position of the Hummer, I will close my eyes immediately. It shouldn't have much impact, right?
With this idea in mind, I opened my eyes, and then the sound of suona and laughter swept through my body instantly, and the scene in front of me almost made my heart stop beating!
Under the clear moonlight, I saw people standing on both sides of me wearing white mourning clothes. The person pulling me forward in front was not Zhang Hazi at all, but Zhu Dabiao who was swollen by water!
No wonder it makes no sound when it walks! No wonder its voice is hoarse and unclear!
No wonder the stick in my hand was wet when photographed. It turned out to be Zhu Dabiao who took the picture without anyone noticing when we couldn't see it! No wonder I didn’t get there after walking for so long, because Zhu Dabiao didn’t take me to the Hummer at all!
I quickly turned my head and glanced at the Hummer, and then I was so frightened that I stopped breathing——I saw, in front of me on the left, Zhang Hazi was holding a paper man in his arms and was trying hard to hold it. It's shoved into the driver's seat!
Zhang Hazi, he thought that paper man was me!
And when I looked over, the paper man also turned back to look at me. His originally pale and bloodless face suddenly opened his mouth and showed me a sinister smile that seemed to have succeeded in his conspiracy...
Looking at the evil smile on the paper man's face, I realized that their target was not me, but Zhang Hazi!
