Chapter 36 Chapter 7 The Baby

I hurriedly chased into the yard, and in an instant I only vaguely saw a vague figure jumping into the well.When I rushed to the well, I only saw the water in the well rippling back and forth. The well water is still very clear, without any turbidity, and the well seems to be very deep, and the light from outside cannot penetrate into the well, so it is difficult to see what is hidden in the well water.I tried my best to recall the scene just now, that figure seemed to belong to us humans.I looked down at the well, but found another seven-color scale beside the dilapidated well head. I picked up this scale and compared it to the other two, both were identical, this scale must have been left by something that jumped into the well.I wanted to wait for that thing to come out of the well, but I stood by the mouth of the well and waited for a long time, but the water surface seemed to be frozen, motionless.There seemed to be nothing in the well, which made me wonder if I was hallucinating or misreading.

I looked up at the sky, the sun was in the middle, at least it was noon now.I am a little worried about Xinhong, maybe Xinhong is also worried about me.I walked out of the yard with three seven-color scales in my hand. When I stepped out of the yard, I looked back at the well again, but there was still no movement.Is it really that my eyes are dazzled by the heat, but there is indeed a hole in the fence of the yard that was smashed. At this time, a pleasant bell rang in my pocket.Hearing such a voice suddenly in this quiet Xishui Village really startled me.After a while, I realized that it was my phone that was ringing.I slapped myself on the head hard, why did I forget to bring my mobile phone!I can call Xinhong!

I took out my phone, and there was a text message, no wonder the phone rang suddenly.I took a closer look, and it was a text message from Teacher Ye!I was still looking for him, and now he delivered himself to the door. I just wanted to open the text message to see what Teacher Ye said, but unexpectedly my phone ran out of battery at this time!I pressed the power button a few more times angrily, but the phone turned off automatically as soon as it was turned on. "I don't know what Teacher Ye wants to say to me?" I said to myself. I followed the flow of air and circled around the village.I thought to myself, would it be a waste of opportunity to just leave like this, and I should take a good look at everything in the village before leaving here.I pushed the wooden door of a large courtyard next to me, but it turned out that the door fell down as I expected.But it's all made of wood, so even if it falls on me, it won't hurt me too much.

I stepped into the yard lightly. The furnishings here are extremely simple, no different from the yard just now.I walked out of the courtyard and knocked down the door of another courtyard. The furnishings of this courtyard were also very simple, nothing special.I approached the well in the yard, picked up a small stone from the ground and threw it into the well.With a plop, it seemed that the well was very deep. I went to push open the wooden door of another courtyard, and the furnishings inside were almost the same as the other courtyards.I stared blankly at this courtyard, and then thought of the furnishings of several other courtyards. It seems that the courtyards here all have a strange place.But what is so strange, I can't tell for a while.The furnishings here are obviously very simple and clear at a glance, so what's the problem?

"Hee hee... hee hee..." Suddenly, a burst of baby-like laughter floated out of the room. After I heard it, my hairs stood on end.Isn't that the sound of a baby?Are there any children in this cabin?I was just about to go into the house to see what happened, but a man's voice came from somewhere, and he said firmly: "Don't go in, go!" "Who, who is talking!" I looked around the yard in horror, but there was no one, let alone any animals.If we insist on living things, there are only me and an old tree that is dying in this yard. No one answered me, and there was another silence.I stood there blankly, motionless, staring at the cabin in front of me.There may really be babies in this room. I heard that traffickers love to abduct babies.They specially locked children in the deep mountains and wild forests.Could it be the kidnapped children?

"Hee hee... hee hee..." The baby's laughter wafted out of the dilapidated house again, it was a bit scary in this quiet Xishui village. I just took a step, and I wanted to walk into the wooden house, when a man's voice came from nowhere: "Don't go in, go!" "Who, who is talking!" I yelled loudly, but there was not even a single mosquito around, so where did people come from?Could it be that I was dizzy from the heat and had an illusion. The baby's laughter came from the wooden house again, and I stepped back a little timidly.It's better to listen to other people's advice and not to go in.I took a few steps back in a hurry, and ran out of the yard without daring to look back.I was walking on the path, thinking that I must have hit a ghost just now.In this day and night, can ghosts come out and wander around?

As I walked, I still wanted to see what other yards looked like.So, I took a deep breath and pushed open the door of a courtyard. There is nothing special in the yard. It is estimated that people's life must have been very difficult at that time.There is nothing special here, it is the same as the previous yard.I looked at the furnishings in the yard and seemed to think of something.There seems to be a... "Wow... woah..." Suddenly there was a cry of a baby from the well. I was taken aback, my thoughts just now were interrupted, is there a baby in this well?Who is so vicious that even the child has the heart to throw him into the well, I have to fish the child out quickly.

"Don't lean over, go!" It was that man's voice again, with a heavy tone. "Why am I leaving, who are you? Come out!" I yelled, as if I knew who the other party was. However, at this time, it became quiet again.Except for me, there is still only an old tree that is about to die, and the other creatures are all in shape.Could there really be babies in the well?I thought to myself, let's take a branch to strengthen my courage.The wood here is turning to ashes and must not be strong.I shook the old tree in the yard, it was still strong.I jumped up, and when I reached a branch, I pulled it down hard. With a click, the branch broke.

I have a branch in my hand. If I bump into something, I can give it a few slaps with the branch, which is better than bare hands. I grabbed the branch and was just about to walk to the side of the well when something dripped onto my head, like water, wet.Probably there is still dew on the old tree.I ran my hands through my hair to shake off the dripping water.However, water kept dripping from my head.I looked at my palm, and it turned out to be all bright red blood!I raised my head in panic and looked at the top of the old tree.The place where I broke it was actually bleeding slowly, the old tree was bleeding!

"Ah! There is a ghost!" I was so frightened that I immediately threw the branch far away and ran out of the yard in a hurry. "Wow...Wow..." The baby's cry kept coming from behind me. After I ran for a distance, I stopped, gasping for breath.I told myself to calm down, calm down, otherwise I would never get out of Xishui Village.I took out a bottle of water from the bag I was carrying and drank it down. I thought back to the few yards I saw just now. Although their furnishings were very simple, there seemed to be something wrong with each of them.I walked into the yard for the first time before, and didn't find anything unusual.This feeling seemed to only come when I entered the first yard. I was about to think about it, but I was startled by the baby's crying, which disrupted my thoughts.

I touched my wet hair, but all the blood on my hands disappeared, turning into colorless water.How is this going?Could it be that I am so old that my eyes are not working well, and the blood turned into water in just a short while.The dazzling sun is still hanging in the center, so I don't believe it, there can be ghosts in broad daylight. At this time, not far from me, a baby slowly crawled out from the dilapidated yard.The baby seemed to be only one year old. His eyes seemed to be a little red, his ears were very long, and his skin was red and black.The clothes on the baby were in tatters.He may have noticed me, smiled at me, and then made a delicate voice: "Brother...Brother..." I saw this baby and felt sorry for him.His sports clothes are so tattered, where have his parents gone, and they didn't come to take good care of the child.I wanted to go over and pick up the baby that was crawling on the ground with me, but that man's voice seemed to come from all directions: "Don't go over, go!" Then, I don't know what hit my back, it was very painful.I looked back, but I couldn't see anyone, only the old tree in the neighboring courtyard was shaking slightly.I turned my head dejectedly, only to find that the baby was gone!
