Xiao Douzi applauds my decision. This child is soft on the outside and strong on the inside. She is not afraid of the unknown loss and the call of death. Ding Bing’s evaluation of her is accurate - she is better than me, Ding Bing, and even better than me. Her father must be cruel.

Only when you are ruthless to yourself can you be ruthless to others.

Dabing and I seem to be making noises every day, but in fact we lack a sense of ruthlessness and give up when things involve human lives. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have been in the industry for so many years and finally ended up washing our hands and going home. The results of farming have already come out.

She is stronger than us, and now she has seen the clues.

I just did what I said. I helped the soldier get dressed, found a rope from the house, carried him on my back and fixed him with a rope.

He is unconscious now, so we cannot leave him alone. It is not peaceful here. If we leave him alone, we might as well just kill him with a knife.

This grandson is not light, and it is quite difficult to carry it on his body. Fortunately, he can still bear it.

In this way, Xiaodouzi and I chose to hit the road during the day.

I don’t know what these things that cause chaos should be called, but they are all dead people, so let’s treat them as ghosts. In my understanding, daytime belongs to living people, and nighttime This is the carnival time for ghosts and ghosts. It is relatively safer to travel during the day. This may be a fallacy, but as the old saying goes, I believe it for the time being, which gives myself some comfort.

The Zhao family compound is very big, and what we see now is just the tip of the iceberg. Moreover, when we came in, we didn’t go through the main entrance, but the side entrance. In the past, the house faced north and south, and the main family of wealthy families lived on the front side. Judging from the location of the house, the perverted man's family should not have a high status in the Zhao family compound, and they might be long-term workers.

I think that after the perverted man leaves, the most likely place to go is where the master’s house is. That is the most important core area of ​​the house, and the perverted men also have to gather together.

So, we kept going north.

Oddly enough, after passing the old house, the sky became obviously darker. It was obviously a house, but it seemed that the sky above our heads was not the same. Before, the sky was clear and clear, but after passing the old house, the sky became darker. It became gloomy, and thick lead clouds rolled overhead, as if the wings of the sky were hanging overhead, causing the sky to be lightless and the surroundings to be chaotic and gloomy.

The deeper you go, the more serious this situation becomes.

In the end, I couldn’t even see my fingers, as if I was walking at night.

The buildings are lined up in rows, all of which are typical Chinese-style buildings from the Republic of China. They are built next to each other and there are countless houses. It is difficult to identify the direction when walking among them. In the end, I simply relied on my own experience and intuition to find the direction. .

Unconsciously, we walked into a dark alley.

At this time, there was a faint sound of children crying, mixed with the muffled voices of two men, but the distance was relatively far, so it was not very clear.

Finally there is news!

After a while, we saw the real owner in a narrow alley between two houses.

The back doors of the two houses face each other, and the people in the alley seem to be neighbors.

They were two men in long robes, unkempt, with bloodshot faces, looking very haggard. They each held a child in their arms, a boy and a girl, about the same age, but skinny and dying.

The two men faced each other and looked at each other speechlessly.

After struggling and hesitating for a while, a man with a pale and slightly sick face suddenly spoke. He lowered his voice and leaned forward to talk to the other person: "Damn it, I can't bear it anymore. There is nothing left to eat at home, only... …”

As he spoke, he glanced at the child in his arms, his eyes red.

"Can't you do it? Me too, so I asked you to come out with your child."

Another man with a full beard sighed and said: "Look, the children of our two families are about the same size, and no one suffers. How about we change? I will give you my child, and you will give it to me." Give me your child, so that I can do it easily, and you can have a good meal."

The thin man gritted his teeth and handed over the girl in his arms.

The two men quickly exchanged the children, hunched over and quickly returned home. The children in their arms were calling daddy, but they did not look back.

Is this another recurrence of what happened in the old house?

It should be!

The state of these two men is very similar to that of the old woman who made clothing from human skin. What they are doing now actually happened decades ago.

"Stop reading, forget these!"

I touched Xiaodouzi’s head, pulled her and left quickly. I didn’t want these extreme darkness of human nature to have any impact on her character.

……

Walking a little further, we saw a similar situation for the third time in front of a house.

This is a man and a woman, seemingly a couple.

The woman is lying on a recliner, her lower body covered with a thick back, and the man is by her side.

"Chang Sheng."

Suddenly, the woman called the man softly, tilted her head and asked, "How are the others doing now?"

"What else can I do? I can't get out."

A flash of anger flashed in the man's eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said: "It's true, sir. Everyone said that thing was unlucky and should not be bought, but he decided that it was a treasure and it was worth spending all his wealth. The market will be better later." After reselling the Zhao family, there was hope for revival. This was great. After inviting that thing into the house, the Zhao family did not revive. On the contrary, everyone could not get out! Originally, Yan Xishan confiscated our grain reserves before retreating. There isn't much left at home, and now that we have been trapped for so many days, everyone is hungry. I heard that people have starved to death. Some people can't stand it anymore and seem to start cannibalism. The master doesn't care about this. I look at that thing in the ancestral temple every day. It is said that someone came to make trouble for the master, but was beaten out by the people around the master. But I don’t think the master can survive for long. When he runs out of food, who will survive the few lackeys around him? Will you listen to him? By then, he will definitely die!"

The woman's face changed and she murmured: "Well, Chang Sheng, please don't go out. People can do anything if they are very hungry. Let's stay at home and die together. Don't do those things. Act."

The man's expression became strange, and he suddenly grabbed the woman's hand and asked, "Daughter-in-law, you have been married to me for almost twenty years, how have I treated you?"

"Of course it's good, everyone says you are a good man."

A happy smile appeared on the woman's face, and she said: "I became paralyzed not long after I married you, and I didn't leave you a son and a half. If others didn't want me, I would have been gone, but you have been here for twenty years." You take care of me, do various tasks, and never complain. I’m afraid there’s no one better than you in the world.”

"That's good."

The man breathed a sigh of relief, let go of the woman's hand, slowly stepped back, knelt on his knees, and kowtowed to the woman several times.

The woman was shocked: "Chang Sheng, what are you doing? Get up!"

"I want to ask you for something."

The man said: "I want to ask you for something."

The woman shook her head: "What are you talking about? Just tell me what you want. Why are you doing this!"

The man squeezed out one word: "You."

The woman rolled her eyes: "Aren't I always yours..."

Wow!

Before she finished speaking, the man lifted up the quilt on her body, revealing two white leg bones.

When the woman saw this, her face was full of horror.

"I can't help it anymore."

The man gritted his teeth and said: "Anyway, you can't feel the lower half of your body for a long time. Every day I cut off a little bit while you are sleeping, and you won't feel anything. I thought you would be able to get over it after a while, but now you The parts that can't be felt have been cut, and the rest will hurt a little..."

Just as the woman was about to speak, the man had already taken out a kitchen knife from behind, pounced on her and chopped off the woman's head...

After that, the man held the woman's head and cried loudly, lying on her body and said: "Daughter-in-law, I want to live..."

After saying that, he dragged the woman's body back to the house.

……

All this is shocking. I don’t want to stay here for a long time, so I pick up Xiaodouzi and hit the road again, but I already have some guesses in my mind.

The tragedy of the Zhao family decades ago was not caused by Yan Xishan as the market rumors said, but by the Zhao family's own greed. It seemed that the head of the Zhao family had received something he shouldn't have, and thought that it was The thing was of great value and could help their family make a comeback. However, it turned out that the thing was ominous. After entering the house, the yard was completely sealed off and could only be entered but not exited.

In the predicament, the people of the Zhao family cut their bones to make food and exchanged their sons for food, and suffered a disaster.

I'm a little curious, what is so evil?

Perhaps, if we find this thing, we can leave.

There was a glimmer of hope in my heart.

In our wild thoughts, Xiaodouzi and I unknowingly came to a courtyard.

This courtyard is located in the north. It is an independent courtyard in the Zhao family compound. It is very special. There is a plaque on it with the four gilded characters "Zhao Family Ancestral Hall" written on it.

Seeing this, I couldn't help but widen my eyes.

According to the man who killed his wife to feed himself, weren’t the evil objects that caused the Zhao family’s destruction decades ago placed in this ancestral temple?
