My years as a fortune teller

This is a roaring sound that resembles both a beast and a human being. Jin Nantian and I are very familiar with this sound.If I heard correctly, it should be the sound from the zombies!

There are mountains behind here, and the temperature is very humid.If it is said to find a place to raise corpses here, it must be a breeze.But there was such a cry, indicating that the zombies had come out.

Jin Nantian held me tightly with his hands, not because he was afraid, but because he didn't want me to rush out.Whether I can rush out, I know better than him.I am not familiar with the terrain here, rushing out is also courting death.

But I saw that old Lu didn't respond at all, as if he didn't hear it.Did he really not hear it? Impossible?Even though he is an old man, how can someone who is neither blind nor deaf hear?

But the old man acted as if nothing had happened, he put some tobacco leaves in the smoke pot and took a deep breath.It seems that the old man is very familiar with this voice, and has become accustomed to it.

I tugged Jin Nantian and slowly sat back on the bamboo chair, found a pack of cigarettes on my body, handed one to Jin Nantian, and then handed another to Old Lutou.He smoked his own pipe, took it over, looked at it, put it on his nose and smelled it, and put it on his ear.

"Old Brother Lu! Do you think my cigarettes are not good?" I smiled and said to him, "You guys should grow your own cigarettes here too. I smell that your cigarettes taste much purer."

The old man smiled, handed the cigarette pot to me and said, "Your nose is really sharp, come and try smoking it. This is grown by myself, very few, and I won't sell it unless I smoke it myself."

I took it and took a sip, and a spicy taste rushed straight to my forehead.I coughed a few times and said, "My God, this smoke is really strong. When you go back, you must bring some for me."

"Haha!" The old man laughed heartily, took the cigarette pot in my hand and said, "If you like it, I will definitely fill you with a bag full of it. Few people can get used to this kind of cigarette now. .” Just as he was talking, a voice called Grandpa came from the house.

Old Lu asked us to sit down first, then got up and ran into the house.Jin Nantian pulled me and said in a low voice: "Huzi, I heard that sound is like a zombie's cry. Do you think so?"

I nodded and said in a low voice: "The temperature here is very humid, and you can see that the mountain behind is close to the water source. So it is very possible that there will be a corpse breeding ground. But I can't figure it out. If there is such a Loud screams, which means that the zombies have come out to do harm. But you look at Old Lu, it seems that there is no reaction at all. Isn’t it, a little too strange?”

Jin Nantian nodded and said to me: "Yes, that's what I thought just now. But don't forget, I was here last time. And I stayed here for at least ten days. But I was Didn't hear the sound, really didn't hear it at all."

No way, I was secretly taken aback.If Jin Nantian didn't hear this voice last time, how could there be such a voice again this time?

When I was wondering, old Lu Tou trotted out.Before sitting down, he smiled and said: "The grandson wants to pee. Hehe, it happens every night, otherwise I will definitely draw a map for you on the bed."

Jin Nantian and I both smiled, and Jin Nantian said to the old man: "Children are all the same, and we were like this when we were young. I remember when I was young, I often drew maps. My old lady beat me a lot!"

The old man also laughed, and Jin Nantian suddenly asked: "Brother Lu, did you hear the cry just now? Did someone have an accident? I feel like you didn't hear it."

The old man froze for a moment, then put his head back and smoked the pipe.I looked at the old man's expression, as if there was something inconvenient to say.So I didn't press, just waited quietly.

After a long while, the old man raised his head and said, "Well, it's really difficult to talk about this matter. But you are not outsiders, so I will tell you directly."

Jin Nantian and I glanced at each other, and the old man said: "When we went to the countryside, we also had a few educated youths here. Two from Beijing, one from Shanghai, and one from Jiangsu. One man and three women Yes, one of the girls named Jiang Wenli looks exactly like the one in the painting. I was the party secretary here at the time, and I thought it was not easy for other children to come here, so I took special care of it in every way. We were all poor at that time, a family of four or five It’s not bad if a person has a complete pair of trousers. So I arranged a few children as far away from us as possible, just because I was afraid that the bad boys in the village would do something bad to the girl. Later, the boys and One girl left, and this Jiang Wenli and the other stayed to help us. One day it seemed to be raining heavily, and suddenly there was a scream. Although there was no electricity at that time, everyone did not have the habit of going to bed early. Almost all Sitting around and chatting, we rushed out when we heard screams. Following the screams, we saw a girl lying in the rain with no clothes on, and Jiang Wenli was gone."

I had some doubts when I heard this, but I didn't ask directly.On rainy days, the sound of rain should be very loud, if you can hear screams in the house.Explain that the place where the two educated youth girls had an accident was somewhere in the center of the village, or not far from where the villagers lived.The houses here are not very close to each other, so if someone heard it, it should be someone close to the two educated youth girls.

If someone is closer to the place where the two girls live, can it be said that when the two girls had an accident, someone should know about it.Why didn't he stop it when something happened, but came out only when he heard screams.

I didn't ask these questions, but just listened to the old man quietly.The old man took a puff of cigarette and said: "At that time, we were all frightened and foolish. There had never been such a thing. So I called a few women and carried the girl who was unconscious in the rain to the house. Then I organized the strong men in the village to find Jiang Wenli, but all the way to the back mountain, I only found one of Jiang Wenli's shoes. The next day I reported this matter to the higher-ups. Although it was chaotic at the time, it was still very important. I remember that the Revolutionary Committee sent work The team came to investigate. It’s a pity that the girl we rescued was mentally disturbed, and she was hanged before this matter was found. Adding to the fact that she was engaged in sports at the time, the last matter was nothing.”

I was really more confused when I heard this, why did this girl commit suicide suddenly?Were there no signs before suicide?Besides, people are like this, even if they are not sent to the hospital.No matter what, I have to tell the family that I committed suicide, isn't it a bit reckless?Besides, what does this have to do with the cry just now?

The old man looked at me and smiled, and then said: "But after half a year, Jiang Wenli suddenly came back by herself. But after she came back, this girl no longer likes to talk and joke as much as she used to. Every day she lives in her house. If anyone leaves When she got close, she screamed. Although the four old things were broken everywhere at the time, the old people in the village still said that she was fascinated by the spirits in the mountains. This is what the people in the village said, and no one dared to spread it. But experienced The woman still found that Jiang Wenli's belly was getting bigger."

What do you mean, does it mean that Jiang Wenli is pregnant?So who had sex with this Jiang Wenli, and who would the child in her belly belong to?What happened to the baby after it was born? What does it have to do with the cry just now?

I sat there and waited for the old man to continue talking. Who knew that he knocked on the cigarette pot and said, "Okay, let's stop here first. It's getting late and you can rest. You will be busy tomorrow, and the rest will have a chance." I'll tell you again!" After speaking, he stood up and went back to his house with his hands behind his back without looking back.

Jin Nantian and I were completely dumbfounded. After sitting there staring at each other for a long time, we realized that the old man had already left.We both looked at each other, smiled and got up and walked towards our house.When I got to the door, I took another look at the old man's house.I always feel that there are many secrets in him...
