C57 (2/2)
If this had happened, I would have been dead by now.
In other words, something like yin poison could not stay in a person's body for that long and was still in this form.
Since I can't figure it out, I can only let nature take its course. This is the conclusion that I came up with after experiencing so many things last year.
Even though it was New Year's Eve, and it was just Lingling and I, Lingling was still playing happily, and I felt waves of relaxation.
Let's not think about tomorrow's matter for now. Let's take care of it in front of him first …
The twelve o'clock quietly passed. We ate our New Year's Eve meal and rested for a while. We were all a little tired.
At the same time, the village also quietened down. Lingling laid on the brick bed, stared at the ceiling and said:
”I wonder what big brother Liu Qing is doing now. It's the new year, and he doesn't have any family left. He must be very lonely, right …”
Lingling said and sighed.
That year, Liu Songxian must have been like his foster father and realized that he was going to die.
Not only did he realize it, he even told the news of him dying to Lingling and Liu Qing.
It was precisely because I realized that I was going to die that I sent Lingling to me.
In other words, Liu Songxian should be very concerned about Lingling, and I misunderstood him …
In this way, the reliance Lingling displayed on Liu Songxian, became even more rational.
Liu Qing has something he needs to do, and it's not convenient for him to bring Lingling along as he is a man, so he sent Lingling over to me.
If that was really the case, then Liu Songxian and his foster father should not be enemies, but why … When her foster father died, did Liu Songxian display so many oddities?
However, if he thought about how his adoptive father was desperately tormenting him before he died and had his father's corpse ruined to such a state, maybe he really was his friend …
The things they did could no longer be considered by normal people.
In our eyes, it was blasphemy, a crazy method, a revenge.
Was it a part of the plan, a help, in their eyes?
As I thought about it, I fell asleep in a daze. In my dreams, I seemed to see villagers slowly walking out of their own courtyards, heading in a certain direction as they sincerely kowtowed …
Their eyes were lifeless. If one were to carefully think about it, those eyes were clearly a pair of eyes … The eyes of the dead!
Ah!
Just as I was looking at those people, I suddenly saw a person's mouth open and scream.
At the same time as he screamed, I saw fresh blood crazily flowing out of his mouth, dyeing his teeth blood-red. He looked extremely sinister.
Looking at this scene, I subconsciously took two steps back before abruptly opening my eyes.
When he opened his eyes, a bright light shone in. The scene in front of him became clear, but the sharp cries continued.
Even though what he saw just now was a dream, the sound was real. Something had happened outside!
Seeing that Lingling was still asleep, I carefully wore two thick sets of clothes. Outside, there was still snow falling from the sky, and it wasn't warm at all.
The moment I left, I felt a chill in my body. I spat out a mouthful of white air and quickly headed outside.
The screams outside continued, as if something terrible had happened.
I realized last night that it might not be safe this year.
However, he never would have thought that it would be so lively on the morning of the first day.
Looking at the color of the sky, it should have just been six o'clock.
This year's Chinese New Year wasn't as lively as the previous years, but in fact, ever since the death incident this year, I could feel that something was amiss in the village.
In the past, there would often be people from other villages visiting, especially from Old Bull Village.
Ever since the death, especially after the death of the village chief, the villagers had not been as hospitable as before.
And the people from the Old Bull Village were also very conscious, they did not come much anymore, as if they were setting up a barrier between them.
It was even more so during the new year. In the past, the villagers would invite some relatives from other villages to join them for the new year.
In a rural area like this, New Year's Eve was a festive occasion. The more lively it was, the more festive it would be.
Although this year's firecrackers were very lively, they lacked some popularity.
There didn't seem to be many outsiders coming to celebrate this year's New Year … Why is that?
I felt that the villagers seemed to have a sense of crisis, deliberately wanting to seal up the village from the outside world.
This only confirmed my suspicions. There was something in the village that couldn't be exposed, something that feared being discovered.
As I was thinking, I had already left the courtyard and arrived at the source of the sound. At this moment, I discovered a villager covered in blood, with a sickle in his hand, chasing after his wife and children!
