The girl the old smoker mentioned was naturally the young lady in my dream.
But if I can really marry her, I will definitely not refuse.
Just one code to one code.
I was surprisingly calm at that time.
He curled his lips and said, "That was my dream."
"I can't marry even if I want to."
But the old smoker glared at me and said, "Why can't I get married?"
"The letter of engagement has been issued, and all the things such as the eight-carriage sedan chair, the tall horse, the phoenix crown and the harem, and the bride-to-be have been prepared for you."
"Marrying her is just a matter of words!"
When I heard this, I laughed out loud, but I couldn't laugh out loud because I suddenly remembered the red papers that the old smoker gave me before. If I remember correctly,
That's what he said.
After a pause, I looked at the old smoker with a guilty conscience: "Seriously?"
The old smoker took another drag on his cigarette, and after glaring at me again, he said: "Before you marry that girl, you still have a lot of things to do. If you can't finish it, you two will have no chance."
"When the time comes, the letter of appointment can still be returned to you."
I asked with some confusion: "What's going on?".
The old smoker didn't answer me anymore. He just narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "I'll find out later tonight." Then he closed his mouth and stopped talking.
I was even more puzzled.
But I also know that the old smoker won't tell me, no matter how much I ask him, it has been like this several times before.
After that, the old smoker really ignored me.
Just follow me and sit at the entrance of the village.
He smoked and I giggled and teased the dog.
It wasn't until night that he patted his butt and walked into Niang'er Village again.
But this time, his expression was much more solemn than before.
So when I followed him, I felt a little depressed, and I didn't dare to breathe. I don't know if I felt afraid subconsciously, but I just felt a little weak.
In addition, the thought of going to collect the bodies of Liu Ming and the others made my heart beat even more.
After finally arriving at the door of the house, the old smoker directly asked me to take out the brazier. Without waiting for me to burn the paper money, he immediately took out another piece of red paper from his pocket.
This time there are two coffins on the red paper.
There are two coffins, one black and one white.
After the red paper was burned, the old smoker looked at me and said, "Let's go."
"Let's take a look."
I subconsciously asked, "Collect the bodies?"
This time the old smoker didn't play catch-up with me anymore. He took a puff of cigarette and nodded.
Seeing him nod, my mood suddenly became a little complicated, and I didn't know what to say as I followed the old smoker.
After walking for a while, the old smoker stopped.
There were two more coffins and two figures in front of me.
The coffins are one black and one white.
The dark one stopped in front of the room where I saw Zhuang Yue hanging before.
The white one stopped in another room opposite the door.
As for those two figures.
One is Zhuang Yue and the other is Liu Ming.
It's just different from the Zhuang Yue who was hanged last time I saw him. This time, the Zhuang Yue who appeared in front of me this time, although his lower body was also bloody, was not hung. Instead, he was standing next to the black coffin, tightly closed.
His eyes were pale and he seemed to have lost his breath.
Liu Ming, on the other hand, became Zhuang Yue at the beginning.
He was hung under the eaves of the door, and his lower body was also bloody and miserable.
I looked at them and the two coffins, took a deep breath to stop my legs from shaking, and then asked, "Are they really dead?"
The reason why I ask this question is because I still vividly remember Zhuang Yue's resurrection from death.
However, the old smoker did not answer me. He just looked at the two coffins and the bodies of Zhuang Yue and Liu Ming, while smoking, he seemed to be thinking about something.
After a while, he looked at me and said, "Let's open the coffin."
After saying that, the old smoker walked to Liu Ming's body, reached out and untied Liu Ming's body, and then carried Liu Ming's body to the white coffin.
Seeing this, I had no choice but to walk over and push open the lid of the white coffin.
But the next moment I was stunned.
Because I saw a person lying in the white coffin.
And that person is exactly the same as Liu Ming, who is carried by the old smoker.
All I felt was that my legs were weak and I collapsed directly on the ground.
But the old smoker didn't seem to see it. He threw Liu Ming's body directly in, then clapped his hands and looked at me and said, "Did you wet your pants?"
When I heard this, I immediately said anxiously: "Didn't you see there is another one inside?"
As I said that, I don't know where I got the courage, so I got up from the ground and walked to the white coffin, picked up Liu Ming's body that had just been thrown in by the old smoker, and then pointed to the bottom of the coffin for the old smoker to see.
The old smoker took one look and frowned tightly.
It took him a long time before he said, "Put him down first."
Only then did I react and immediately let go of my hand.
The old smoker conveniently closed the coffin lid, then looked at me and said, "Go ahead and open the coffin!"
This time, the old smoker's voice was obviously much heavier. I wanted to ask, but the old smoker had already walked to Zhuang Yue's body again. Although I had a lot of questions, I could only bite the bullet and continue walking to the black mouth.
Coffin, push the coffin lid open.
There is no doubt that in the black coffin, I also saw the second Zhuang Yue.
I looked at the old smoker and said: "There is one here too."
The old smoker didn't answer me. After throwing Zhuang Yue's body in his arms, he closed the coffin lid and silently lit the cigarette rod again.
After taking a puff, the old smoker looked at me with a wry smile and said, "This is going to be troublesome."
I also have some scalp numbness.
"Why are there two?"
The old smoker shook his head.
"It's not two, it's one."
"It's just that you saw two."
I was stunned for a moment and became even more confused.
The old smoker then pointed at my eyes and said, "It stands to reason that you got the eyes I asked for from the City God. What you see now is the real Niang'er Village."
"But if I'm not wrong, Niang'er Village has not changed much in your eyes."
I nodded.
The old smoker took another breath.
"There are only two possibilities."
"One is that the Niang'er Village you see is the real Niang'er Village, and what I saw, including what they saw, are all fake."
"But that's very unlikely."
I curled my lips and wanted to refute, but I didn’t know how to refute. After all, the current Niang’er Village was indeed too weird. It was so weird that I began to doubt whether the dry village I had seen for more than ten years was real.
And now the bodies of Zhuang Yue and Liu Ming are right in front of them.
There is no one else in Niang'er Village except me and the old smoker.
I can't possibly kill them.
The old smoker is always with me, so it is naturally impossible.
So, even if I can't figure it out, I know there must be something weird about their deaths.
What's more, there are still two corpses of these two people.
This makes it even more unclear.
"What about the second possibility?"
The old smoker took a puff of cigarette again, and his tone became heavier.
