after death strike

Zhou Ming explained to Li Zhizhi, and found that he did not show any expression of distaste for such "feudal superstition" things, he was relieved, and led the people into the house.

The yard was filled with three tables, because Zhou Ming came back late, the elderly, women and children had already eaten and closed the tables, and the biggest table in the middle was full of men, drinking and guessing in a dialect that Li Zhizhi could not understand. code.Several people seemed to be drunk, their voices were loud and loud, and Li Zhizhi, who didn't like such occasions very much, shrank his shoulders in shock.

Zhou Ming stepped forward, had a conversation with one of the gray-haired but energetic men, and then brought Li Zhizhi in front of him.

"Dad, this is my cousin."

When the other party looked at him, Li Zhizhi immediately showed a smiling face dedicated to elders reflexively, which looked well-behaved and upright, instead of the hippie smiling face he usually wears.

"Uncle."

"It's... is it called Li Zhizhi?" Zhou Guohua, a drunken cousin, grabbed his shoulder, and suddenly picked up the big bowl of white wine on the table, "Come on, Zhizhi, if you're a man, just take a sip! "

Seeing that his own father started persuading him to drink when he disagreed with him, Zhou Ming hurriedly interrupted with a few words, and took away his cousin who couldn't drink at first glance.To be honest, this move of his won a lot of favor from Li Zhizhi.

After meeting another cousin and aunt, several cousins, and burning some paper money for the cousin who died young, Zhou Ming took him to the room behind the courtyard.

"My dad and the others drank too much. You know, there are some people who use alcohol to relieve their worries. It's not too late to meet relatives tomorrow. You live in this house tonight."

Li Zhizhi didn't bring any luggage, so he carried a set of clothes, a change of washing utensils and a mobile phone charging cable in a backpack.He nodded towards Zhou Ming, sat on the bed and took out the charging cable to charge his phone. Zhou Ming stood at the door hesitating for a while, then said, "Are you really not eating?"

Li Zhizhi shook his head.

Seeing this, Zhou Ming had no choice but to leave, and before he left, he told him to find someone in the hall if he was hungry.

Finally, he was the only one left, and Li Zhizhi lay back, lying on the bed with his whole body in big characters.When he was relaxed, he was always expressionless, but he looked like two people in front of outsiders, looking cold and unkind.

A full moon can be seen outside the window, hanging brightly and brightly in the cloudless and starless night sky.Li Zhizhi looked at the moon for a while, and the phone suddenly vibrated.He glanced at it and found that it was the very familiar name, so he didn't answer it, and turned the mute until the phone hung up automatically.

Convenience is also very interesting and did not call again.

Li Zhizhi breathed a sigh of relief, and felt some inexplicable emotions surging in his chest.

The sound of code guessing in the yard changed from loud to quiet, from lively to deserted. Li Zhizhi lay on the bed and closed his eyes to rest his mind until the outside became quiet.

"Cousin, do you want to take a bath? I'll take you there." The one who stopped him was a cousin he just met today, named Zhou Jiajia.She is only one year younger than Zhou Ming, and she is her biological younger sister. It can be seen that the relationship between the two is very close.

"How dare you bother my cousin?" Li Zhizhi smiled.

Unexpectedly, when Zhou Jiajia saw his smile, she was stunned first, and then her eyes turned red.While covering her eyes, she put the bowls and chopsticks on the table into the basin, choked up and said, "I'm sorry, my cousin couldn't help it. It's just that thinking that Xiaojun is as tall as you makes me a little..."

Zhou Jun was only an adult this year, and he never expected to die in a car accident.Li Zhizhi silently stepped forward and patted Zhou Jiajia's shoulder as comfort, and helped her clean up the table together.It wasn't until after washing the dishes that Zhou Jiajia's mood calmed down.It's just that her nose is red, and she looks like she has been crying.

"He's so young... Dad said he's too young to take care of himself down there. It's better to find a wife to go on the road with." Excuse me. "Cousin, you people in the city don't have this habit, do you?"

Li Zhizhi recalled what Zhou Ming explained to him, that the entire Zhou family village has such a habit, if a person dies and is not yet married, they will form a yin relative, so that they can be companions below.

He shook his head, but this time he stopped laughing, a little serious. "Although there is no one in the city, I can understand."

What can the living do for the dead?They don't know anything about death, they just do what they can.

Zhou Jiajia showed some emotion, and she murmured again: "The girl in-law is also 18 years old, and the days when she and Xiaojun left one after the other. Although the words are not pleasant, the two families think it is fate."

She stared straight at a certain direction, and Li Zhizhi followed her to look over, and what she saw was the two-story single-family house built in the front yard.Originally, the single house was reserved by Zhou Guo and his wife for their youngest son, but they did not expect that it has now become a mourning hall where Zhou Jun’s corpse is parked. At this time, the door is opened, and the coffin parked there and the flickering candles can be seen. fire.

And tomorrow, there will be a joyless wedding here.

Although Zhoujia Village is hidden deep in the mountains, the conditions are not as bad as imagined, and there is still electricity and hot water.Li Zhizhi has no requirements on the water temperature, but he strives to be clean. Even so, he must take a bath every day.

How would you describe your current situation?There was no decay, no corpse spots, no stench, and even the wound remained as it had just been cut, as if time was frozen at the moment of his death.Li Zhizhi is a medical student, even if he is not a forensic major, he has relevant knowledge.

He lost part of his weight due to blood loss, so he weighed as little as a girl at this time.When sitting in Zhou Ming's car, he was still a little nervous, for fear that he would see something wrong with him.

If his body stinks and rots, he can still substitute himself into a zombie in a film and television game, but... the only difference between him and the corpse parked in the mourning hall is that he can still maintain consciousness and move freely.

A dead body with thoughts and actions, this is really terrible.

Li Zhizhi took out a towel from his bag to wipe his wet hair.His hair is a bit long, and usually tied in a bunch of sloppy hair behind his head, but now it is damp and draped behind his head, giving him an inexplicable smell.

Halfway through brushing my hair, my phone suddenly vibrated again.

Li Zhizhi knew who was calling him, so he made up his mind to ignore him, thinking that the other party would hang up tactfully like last time, but he didn't expect that this time, that person was very persistent. After calling one after another, Li Zhizhi was so annoyed that he had no choice but to answer the phone.

"Hello?" His tone was a bit aggressive, and he knew that he was in a bad mood.

The person on the other end of the phone didn't take it seriously, and even said something in a good temper. Li Zhizhi was taken aback, and replied, "Why are you here? How did you find this place?"

He deliberately walked out of the window to look, but he didn't see anyone, and he felt relieved.However, the other party added another sentence, and Li Zhizhi was not calm at all this time.

How could it be so clingy?

Li Zhizhi gritted his teeth angrily, but the other party didn't give him a compromise at all, so he had to compromise after much deliberation: "You stand there and don't move, I'll pick you up." After hanging up the phone, he hurried out the door .

The moonlight was thick, and there were insects singing in the grass on both sides of the road. It was because of the silence that Li Zhizhi's footsteps were particularly clear.There were no recreational activities in the village, and all the lights went out after ten o'clock. There were no street lights in the pitch black area. Li Zhizhi had to use the flashlight of his mobile phone to light up the road ahead so as not to lose his way.

When he came, he remembered the way, and he would take big strides, almost briskly walking forward.

After a while, he came under the old tree where Zhou Ming had parked before.That electric motorcycle blended into the night, without a flashlight, Li Zhizhi could barely see its outline.

What about people?Li Zhizhi muttered something in his heart, looked left and right, but did not find any figure.

He lowered his head and was about to dial the phone, when suddenly there were hands around his waist, hugging him tightly.

"Know it." The other party pressed against his neck and said in a deep voice.

Even though most of the body's sensory functions have been lost, the itching sensation can still be conveyed very intuitively. Li Zhizhi, who is most ticklish, immediately broke free from the embrace and jumped a few steps away before standing still and looking at him with lingering fear.

Just like everything in the dark night, the face of the visitor was blurred and hard to see, only a pair of eyes were shining brightly in the dark night, staring at him persistently.

Li Zhizhi recalled that there was still some unclear awkwardness between the two of them, so he didn't fight with him with a playful smile like before, but asked him again: "Why are you here?"

"I'm worried."

Although his voice was soft, he could hear it clearly, together with the persistence in his words, it was transmitted directly to Li Zhizhi's heart.

Li Zhizhi paced back and forth on the ground with some annoyance.It's not that he doesn't know why this person is worried, but he has made up his mind to die. Although he doesn't know why he committed suicide but he didn't die completely, but in any case, he is far from a normal person—he After all, he is already dead, whether he goes to heaven or goes to hell, he does not belong to this world.

It's just that the person in front of him is my best friend since I was a child. If I were myself, I might make the same choice as him.Who would watch their good friend die?

Thinking of this, Li Zhizhi's heart softened, and he laughed, trying to make his tone as frivolous as usual: "Why don't you worry, I'm not a little girl, can I still be kidnapped?"

"I'm worried that you won't be able to sleep without me."

Li Zhizhi was at a loss for words, and felt depressed again.

If he is reticent, he is reticent, why is he so sharp every time he speaks, it chokes him half to death, and he can't say anything to refute, because what this person says is the truth.Li Zhizhi put away the fake smile on his face, and glanced at him unhappy.

"Forget it, it's all here." He muttered a few words in a low voice, and stretched out his hand towards the person, "I forgive you, Ah Wang."

Originally, he was just planning to shake hands with Ah Wang to make peace, but who knew that this person played a card out of common sense, but actually reached out and inserted his finger into his, interlocking his fingers.

"What are you doing, are you angry?" Li Zhizhi looked at him with raised eyebrows, and shook his hands, only to find that he still couldn't shake them off.

Ah Wang just looked at him, and raised the bag in the other hand: "I also brought you your Kindle."

Li Zhizhi's eyes lit up, and he took the bag happily: "Brother, you are very good. I was too anxious to go out today, so I forgot to bring it." He didn't realize that the topic had been quietly changed.

He doesn't have many hobbies, reading a book before going to bed is one.Because of poor sleep quality, I try to fall asleep every night by reading a book to see how tired I am.Ah Wang brought him a Kindle, which is like sending charcoal in a timely manner.Li Zhizhi happily took the man to the relative's house, completely forgetting that the two of them were still holding hands tightly, and that he would forget things because he was in a hurry to go out today. His original intention was to avoid someone temporarily .

Ah Wang paced slowly, following behind him contentedly, his quiet eyes and the moonlight poured on the back in front of him.

The author has something to say: Li Zhizhi: Hello brother, can I have any private space?

Ah Wang: (Thinking)...OK, three meters away.

Li Zhizhi: Then don't you become a tail-walking madman? !

Ah Wang: Well, I don't mind.
