strange neighbor

Because this is a deserted village, the three of them walked around the village and found nothing special, so they simply returned to the car, Officer Yu sat in the driver's seat, Ding Shijin and Jiang Duo sat behind and closed their eyes to recharge their batteries .

It was getting late, and the three of them got out of the car after a simple dinner in the car.

Jiang Duo walked in the front, still holding the compass in his hand, looking at the pointer on it: "What time did the reporter arrive in this village?"

"The record says it was 08:30." Officer Yu replied.

After he finished speaking, he looked up at the houses on both sides of the road. It was dark, and the whole village was covered in dead silence. They didn't look like there were people, and those people were really brave. If it was him, he might choose to stay in the car. Don't come down even if you go up to deal with it overnight.

Jiang Duo raised his wrist and glanced at his watch. It was already nine o'clock. They found the house they borrowed from according to the reporter's record. It was also pitch black with no light at all.

Jiang Duo stretched out his hand and pushed twice on the rusted gate. The chains made harsh noises in the quiet night. After waiting for a while, no one appeared. The pillar climbed up.

Seeing this, Police Officer Yu asked in surprise, "Brother Duo?"

Jiang Duo turned over and jumped into the yard: "Jump in."

Ding Shijin and the two of them also climbed up. Officer Yu was one of the best in the school in both culture and physical classes. Climbing over this kind of fence was a piece of cake. He landed on the ground neatly. Seeing the idol he respected standing behind the fence like an old mother with open hands, the tone in his mouth was so gentle and outrageous: "A Jin, slow down, jump here, I will follow you."

However, Ding Shijin ignored him and jumped down from beside him.

Jiang Duo was not embarrassed, and naturally withdrew his hand. Officer Yu glanced at the two of them suspiciously, wondering why Jiang Duo took care of Ding Shijin so much. He couldn't hide something in his heart, and slipped out of his mouth when he thought of something: " Brother, why do you take such good care of Mr. Ding?"

"Ah Jin is not in good health."

Officer Yu took a few glances at Ding Shijin who had already walked to the front. He was thin and fair-skinned, and looked really weak. He couldn't help respecting Jiang Duo even more.

They held flashlights in their hands and shone on the ground. The yard was overgrown with weeds, and it looked like it hadn't been taken care of for a long time. Jiang Duo took the lead, walked to the main room, and opened the door at once, as expected in the file. Similarly, he used a flashlight to shine in the room, and there was a table in the living room, with bowls and chopsticks on it, and a few dishes that had dried and hardened and were dark and unidentifiable.

Jiang Duo observed carefully in the room. This is the most common farm house. There is a huge wedding photo hanging on the wall beside the bed in the bedroom, which has faded because it has not been taken care of for too long. The people in the photo The face was dyed yellow, yellow, green and green.

"Hey, what is this?" Officer Yu called out.

Hearing the sound, Jiang Duo walked and saw Officer Yu pushing open the door of a small cubicle. He stepped forward and found that it was a very closed environment. Inside the small space was a wooden table on which enshrined Looking at a statue, the fruit in the offering tray had long been oxidized and rotted. He directly shone the torch on the statue, and found that it looked like a man in white with a kind smile on his face.

Officer Yu hissed, "What kind of god is this, actually wearing modern clothes?"

Jiang Duo snorted disdainfully: "Anything dares to be called a god."

At this time Ding Shijin also came over, holding a pink notebook that had been covered with a lot of dust in his hand. He opened the notebook and placed it in front of the two of them, only to see that it was written all over: It is here! !

"It's here?" Officer Yu repeated it: "What is it?"

No one answered him, and everyone didn't know what it referred to in the notebook. Every sentence was followed by a few big exclamation marks, which were so powerful that they even penetrated the page. I don't know who wrote this sentence. The mood is excited or scared.

After leaving the main room, they went to the side room where Luo Tian was borrowing. As expected, it was very empty inside, and the walls were still cement gray. It seemed to be just a rough room, with two thin plastic-steel windows standing there. , with the moonlight shining in through the window, it is not too dark.

Officer Yu was startled when he suddenly stepped on something with a flashlight in his hand.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Duo asked.

Officer Yu hurriedly shone his flashlight on the ground, and a huge black figure ran away: "It's okay, it might be a mouse."

But he was a little bit guilty in his heart, would there be a mouse as big as a cat?

Thinking of him shining the flashlight in the direction where the shadow was running again, it was quiet and the walls were flat and smooth, he must have misread it, otherwise why such a big guy didn't move at all.

He withdrew his gaze and planned to keep up with Jiang Duo and Ding Shijin in front of him, but when he raised his head again, his cold sweat flowed down. There was no trace of those two people in front of him. How could this be? He came from the position in front of him and spoke. Although he didn't listen carefully, there was nothing unusual.

He turned around and walked towards the door: Maybe Jiang Duo and Ding Shijin went outside when he wasn't paying attention.

He pushed open the door and still couldn't find the two of them, so he put his hands around his mouth: "Brother Duo—"

"Mr. Ding—"

Called several times but no one responded.

"Hush——" Just as he was about to yell again, a clear hiss suddenly came from his ear, and in an instant, the roots of his hair stood on end...

On the other side, Jiang Duo was walking into another empty room. It was obvious that the decoration of this room hadn't been completed yet, and there were still some scraps and tools lying on the ground. Jiang Duo shined his flashlight on the wall: "Ajin, do you think our fate is amazing, I never thought we would meet here."

After waiting for a while, no one spoke behind him, Jiang Duo paused for a moment, then turned around to find that there was no one behind him.

"Ah Jin?" He called again, but there was still no response.

At this time, Ding Shijin was about to push open the door of the side room. The two partners disappeared quietly at some point. Thinking about it with his toes also revealed a strange feeling. He put his hand on the door and was about to push it open. , I heard a burst of music beating gongs and drums outside the door. The tune was difficult and strange, and it was even more eerie in the dark night.

Ding Shijin originally wanted to retreat into the room, but he found that he seemed unable to control his body. He watched him push open the door and go out. Outside the door stood a group of people with pale faces, blood-red lips, and colorful clothes, approaching It was only later that he discovered that this team was actually made of paper.

The leading paper man suddenly turned his head to face him, and opened his bright red lips in a strange arc. Ding Shijin felt as if someone was pushing him behind him, making him follow behind the team uncontrollably.

The night wind was very cold, blowing on their faces like needles. After walking around for a long time, they came to a place similar to an ancestral hall, but what was enshrined inside was not an ancestral tablet, but a statue. Wearing a white robe on the patterned futon, she has a fairy-like appearance.

Those paper figurines scattered away, and then a group of people came out from nowhere, with obsessed and crazy expressions on their faces, they knelt down on the ground with a plop, raised their hands high, and muttered something, Ding Shijin stood up straight Standing in the crowd was very eye-catching. He couldn't speak or move. He watched a man stand up from the ground and walk in front of the statue. He stretched out his palm and slapped the tip of the candlestick on the table, and blood flowed instantly. When he came out, the man didn't seem to know the pain, he clenched his hands into fists and let the blood drip on the statue, instantly a red mark appeared on the white statue. Disappeared, and then everyone repeated this action, until the last person also left, and no one glanced at him from the beginning to the end.

Suddenly, two hands grabbed his arm and dragged him to the back of the ancestral hall. Ding Shijin glanced at it from the corner of his eye, and it turned out that the paper figurine reappeared quietly.

Unexpectedly, there is a hole in the back of the ancestral hall. After passing through a small wooden door, there is actually a large open space, but there is a strange-shaped building built on it, and a thick cross pole stands on each side of the building. The paper man pushes him backwards. Walking, I didn't see it until I got close. The building was similar to a round well, and the side of the well was engraved with complicated and incomprehensible spells. He stopped in front of the small house and pushed him in. Ding Shijin staggered a few steps and bumped his head against the wall. He was dizzy immediately, and then warm liquid flowed down. Fortunately, he happened to lean on On the wall, his face was facing the door, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw that there seemed to be other people around him, but everyone was in a predicament of not being able to speak or move.

The blood soon flowed into his eyes, Ding Shijin simply closed his eyes, recalling everything that happened carefully.

How did he, Jiang Duo and Officer Yu get separated?What happened to those paper figurines and worshippers?Who is that statue they are enshrining?And that well and pole you just saw?Too many mysteries lingered in his mind, the hut was extremely cold, the exhaled air was white, and the outside wind blew in through the crack of the door, like a weird tune.

But what was miraculous was that Ding Shijin actually fell asleep in this environment. No, to be precise, he didn't know why, but he suddenly felt sleepy, and he couldn't even resist it.

There was a thick fog in front of him. Ding Shijin stepped on a sandy road and would accidentally kick small stones on the ground. He looked at the scene in front of him in a daze, and he actually appeared in a small village.
