Chapter 39 Chapter 10 The Human Brain

We broke into several houses one after another, but still no one was found.In such a huge village, why can't even find a single person all of a sudden? Could it be that there is no one in the village?However, during the day, I saw many villagers, why they disappeared without a trace.I said tremblingly, "Why did everyone in the village suddenly disappear?" "Is there something going on in the village, so everyone went out?" Xinhong guessed. "How is it possible? What would make the whole village go out together, or in the middle of the night? And then leave the two of us here?"

"When we came out of the room just now, did we hear a strange sound?" Xinhong said while turning off the flashlight. "I heard it, but I don't know what's going on?" I asked a little puzzled, "I said, why did you turn off the flashlight?" "It can't be charged here, so don't use the flashlight if you can." Xinhong said softly, "Let's go to the real clay sculpture first." In the village alley, we walked slowly in the dark.Tonight, the moonlight shone lightly on Xishui Village, and the whole village seemed to be immersed in the unreal seabed.We walked for a while in the dark, and gradually got used to it.Because with the faint moonlight, he could barely see the surrounding environment clearly.With previous experience, we quickly walked out of Xishui Village.When I passed the blue-black stone tablet at the entrance of the village, I subconsciously glanced at the stone tablet, then looked at the silver moon that was about to be full in the sky, and stopped thoughtfully.

Xinhong, who was walking in front of me, realized that I hadn't followed, so he turned around and asked me softly, "Why didn't you leave, what's the matter?" "Xinhong, have you noticed that the yellow mark on this stele may refer to the moon in the sky?" After hearing what I said, Xinhong walked back and looked at the yellow mark on the stone tablet, and then looked up at the moon in the sky.Xinhong sank for a while, and then asked: "Why do you ask that, did you find something?" "I'm not sure." I shook my head and said, "I just think this yellow mark really looks like the moon, and didn't Teacher Ye send a text message before? He said 'Chang'e Flying to the Moon', and And he also appeared near Xishui Village, so I just feel more and more that this yellow mark may be the moon. I just don’t know why, they want to engrave this mark on various places in the village?"

Xinhong didn't answer me, he just stared blankly at the silver moon that was about to be consummated. He suddenly turned his head and said, "Let's go to the real clay sculpture first." I walked with Xinhong a little curiously.I thought to myself, why does Xinhong always want to go to the real clay sculpture, why can't he wait until daytime, why does he have to run there in the dark now?I remembered my experience during the day, and looked at the surrounding trees in disbelief, why didn't they move?They are still chasing me today. Could it be that the trees in this place are not the tree spirit Yunyang anymore?By the way, there must be a necessary condition to grow into a tree spirit Yunyang. I remember that in an unearthed Eastern Jin ancient tomb, there is an ancient book that says that the place where the tree spirit Yunyang grows must have...

The woods were not very quiet, and the sound of insects came out from time to time.Every time we walked through a place, we would make very strange calls.Mosquitoes in the woods even bit our faces specially, so we had no choice but to endure these unbearable pains and itches.Why was the peddler not bitten by mosquitoes at that time?He's wearing more revealing clothes than us. "Shusha...Shusha..." Some weird voices came faintly from behind us. I turned my head and looked behind me vigilantly, but I couldn't see anything unusual.Xinhong noticed that I stopped again, so he urged me to hurry up and not stop and look around when I had nothing to do.

I was a little suspicious and walked towards Xiaoshishan with Xinhong. I don't know why Xinhong was so anxious to see the real clay sculpture again.Maybe Xinhong has thought of something.However, before he is really sure of his thoughts, he will never reveal a word to others, even to me.I've seen that real clay sculpture before, and it's nothing special except that it hasn't decayed after thousands of years.I just especially remember that there is a yellow mark on the real clay sculpture. "Shusha...Shusha..." The weird voice came from behind us again.The woods are full of old fallen leaves, and when we walk on them, there will be a rustling sound.However, the sound we make when we walk is crisp and powerful, not like this weird sound.At first, I thought it was someone following us, but the more I listened to it, the more I felt that the sound didn't sound like a person walking.The voice is a bit muddy and draggy, although this is not an appropriate description of the voice.However, this is precisely the characteristic of this voice.

"Xinhong, did you hear it? There seems to be a strange sound behind us." I looked into the darkness, but couldn't see anything. "I heard it too. It doesn't sound like a person walking, but this sound has been following us." "What time is it, turn on the flashlight and see what's behind!" After I finished speaking, I snatched the flashlight from Xinhong's hand and said, "Don't you want to wait until we are dead before using the flashlight? " I turned on the flashlight, and a dazzling light shot out of it.Some birds, frogs, etc. were frightened and ran away quickly.Within the range of the light of the flashlight, a small red and black face appeared, his ears were drooping, his whole body was lying on the ground, and his face was still smiling towards us.My hand shook involuntarily, and the flashlight fell to the ground.Xinhong looked at me with strange eyes, then bent down and picked up the flashlight, and then shone in the distance.

"It's a baby! Who threw the baby into the woods?" Xinhong said and wanted to walk over. "Don't go there!" I grabbed Xinhong and dragged him to run forward frantically.Isn't that baby the one I saw in another Xishui village?At that time, the dryad Yunyang kept reminding me not to get close to that baby, and this baby indeed had a lot of evil spirits.In short, this baby is not a kind person.It turned out that the baby had been crawling behind us just now, no wonder the sound it made sounded a little weird. "Why did you drag me away?" Xinhong broke free from my hand, and said with some reproach, "Why don't you pick up that baby, if a wild animal runs out of the woods, then he will die?"

"You still have the nerve to say that I told you during the day that I have really been to a place called Xishui Village, which is very strange! There is this strange baby in it, not as simple as you think!" As I walked quickly, I told Xinhong what I encountered during the day.After Xinhong listened to my words, he was just silent and didn't say a word.Sure enough, I guessed Xinhong's reaction.We slowed down after we left a long distance and could not hear the strange sound.In fact, I still don't know what's terrible about that baby, but he just has a very evil aura.It's also good to stay away.

According to my memory, the small stone mountain where the real clay sculptures are placed should be not far in front, but there is no light in front.I remember when I went there during the day, didn't the young guard put a few candles and a flashlight on the table, why can't I see a trace of light now.Even if it is blown out by the wind, it can still be lit again, and if it cannot be lit, you can still use a flashlight.Could it be that my old memory has degenerated, and I can't even tell the direction.However, with the help of the dim moonlight, I can still vaguely see a black object in front of me, which should be the small stone mountain where the clay sculptures of real people are placed.

"There may be something strange in front. It is impossible for the guard to not light candles or turn on the flashlight at such a late hour." Xinhong slowed down his steps, and he said, "I think the guard is quite timid, there is no reason He guards a person who has been dead for a thousand years and dares to sit on the stone mountain with a black candle." I was also muttering in my heart, I don't know what tricks there are.At this time, Xinhong turned on the flashlight vigilantly, and there was a small milky white thing on the ground not far from us.I walked over curiously, and the milky white thing seemed to be tofu, soft and steamy.I squatted down, poked the lump with my fingers, and then put my fingers in my mouth to suck it. It was a very fragrant but fishy smell.I wanted to taste it again, but was pulled up by Xinhong behind me. "What do you eat indiscriminately, what if it is poisonous?" Xinhong said sternly. "What kind of poison could it be? I think it's quite delicious. Could it be the delicacy that the guard brought back from the county town?" I said while licking my fingers. Xinhong ignored my nonsense, he looked forward with the flashlight, but found that the ground was covered with blood everywhere.I was very surprised, and I was not in the mood to taste the milky white thing.We nervously followed the blood trail all the way, and came to the side of Xiaoshishan.The guard fell to the ground, his eyes opened wide, as if they were about to burst.There were no wounds on his body, but his face was covered with blood. Xinhong brought the flashlight close to the guard's head, only to find a big hole in the guard's head!All the brain tissue in him flowed out, messing with everything indistinctly, but his brain was gone! I took a deep breath and didn't say a word.Maybe before going to Tianshan, if I saw such a scene, I would scream in fright, but now I just feel scared, and I don’t scream out of control. Is this called growth?I licked my lips, and then I remembered that what I ate just now could be... "Could it be that what you ate just now was..." Xinhong said in surprise, but his voice became smaller and smaller. I vomited nauseatedly, feeling tight in my chest and twitching in my stomach.What I tasted just now turned out to be the brain of this guard!Xinhong hesitated for a moment, and led me, who was still vomiting, into Xiaoshishan.We looked around with a flashlight, but we were even more surprised to find that the real clay sculpture was gone!The ground is full of fragments of clay sculptures of real people, but the real people don't know where they went.We picked up the broken pieces of clay sculpture on the ground and looked at them carefully. With some trembling, I held the fragment of the clay sculpture, which had some patterns on the inside.However, how could the patterns on it be exactly the same as the one I saw today? !
