“Since the village has this custom, why is it still called the Longevity Village?”

Sang Yu held his chin with one hand and glanced at the villagers who were having a feast in the yard.

Although these faces are very similar, some of them are older.

Lu Yu said: "Since ancient times, humans have had an inexplicable pursuit of longevity or immortality. It is rumored that those who eat mermaid meat can live forever. At that time, mermaids were hunted wantonly by humans until they disappeared from this world... Later, some people sought immortality and placed their hopes on elixirs and magic medicines. Some even chose to... kill gods... and eat the flesh and blood of gods..."

In the countless years when humans have been pursuing longer lifespans, this small village has achieved longevity...

It’s incredible!

Lu Xun raised the corners of his lips: "I am becoming more and more interested in this village."

Sang Yu said thoughtfully: "Maybe in this village, longevity is not a good thing!"

Although this village is relatively backward, my uncle's family conditions are not bad and they can support an eighty-year-old man.

I'm just afraid...

When they reach a certain age, some of these old people have to die.

Longevity... maybe it's a curse for the people in this village...

By the time the villagers had eaten and drunk their fill, my uncle's yard soon became deserted, with only a mess on the ground.

My uncle came over with a middle-aged woman wearing a floral shirt and introduced her, "Xiao Yu, this is your aunt."

Behind my uncle, there were two people who looked similar.

"This is your cousin and his wife."

Uncle introduced his family to Sang Yu, and four similar faces showed smiles at the same time.

[Who can tell the difference?]

[This copy is very unfriendly to people with face blindness]

[It is also very unfriendly to normal people who are not face-blind]

[I am more curious about how these villagers can distinguish their own family members]

[You hug my wife, I hug your husband, I call you mom and dad, you call me mom and dad]

[I call you grandpa, and your grandpa calls me grandma]

The comments in the live broadcast room were in disarray and chaos at this moment.

Sang Yu greeted everyone one by one, and her aunt said with a smile: "I have prepared your room. I'm sorry to trouble you two young people tonight."

Tonight, Sang Yu and Lu Xun will keep vigil for their grandmother.

Lu Xun said: "This is what we young people should do. It's not hard."

My uncle, who was standing nearby, was a little distracted, and his eyes kept secretly glancing at the coffin in the mourning hall.

"If you have anything to do at night, just go inside and call us. But if you hear someone knocking on the door at night, remember not to open it."

My uncle's expression was serious and his tone became more serious.

Sang Yu nodded: "Okay uncle, I'll remember it."

Seeing that his niece was so well-behaved and sensible, the uncle's expression eased.

"Seven days... as long as the first seven days pass..."

My uncle murmured in a low voice: "It will all be over."

He turned around, his back slightly hunched.

Time soon came to evening...

Because the entire village was covered by leaves, the village was plunged into darkness before it got completely dark.

Two white candles were lit in the mourning hall. The flickering flames lit up the dim candlelight, giving the hall a gloomy and eerie atmosphere.

Especially the big red coffin in the middle of the mourning hall, placed quietly on the ground, gives people a creepy sense of fear.

Suddenly, there was a "click".

The black and white portrait placed on the eight-immortals table fell down.

Sang Yu stepped forward and picked up the portrait.

In the photo, grandma's face was expressionless, but her eyes were fierce.

Sang Yu thought about it and placed her grandmother's portrait upside down. Her originally fierce face instantly became amiable.

[It’s so late, grandma suddenly pretends to be dead to liven up the atmosphere, it’s not too much, right?]

[Not too much, not too much at all]

[My grandmother’s body will be kept in the mourning hall for seven days. I heard that the first seven days is the night when the soul returns.]

[Sister Yu’s mission 2 is to live in this village for seven days. Maybe something big will happen on the seventh day]

[You are so good at predicting. Believe it or not, I will kill you in advance]

Sang Yu had just placed the portrait when a rustling sound was heard in the mourning hall.

The sound was very light, like the sound of fabric rubbing against each other.

But there were only Sang Yu and Lu Xun in the mourning hall...

Sang Yu's gaze fell on the sealed coffin. There was a hint of scarlet in her eyes, and the scene inside the coffin came into her eyes.

The dead grandmother lay flat in the coffin, her hands were placed on her abdomen, her shroud was covered with wrinkles, her severed head tilted to one side, and her eyes were still wide open...

But suddenly...

Grandma blinked quickly and the corners of her drooping lips seemed to twitch.

At this moment, there was a strange knock on the door.

"boom--"

"boom--"

"boom--"

The heavy knocks on the door were slow and rhythmic.

My uncle told me that if I heard a knock on the door, I should never open it...

There was a flash of scarlet in Sang Yu's eyes, and she saw the scene outside through the tightly closed wooden door.

It was still that similar face, wearing the same shroud as my grandmother's, knocking on the door again and again like a machine.

"Bang... bang... bang..."
