When I wanted to ask again, he seemed to have fallen into the sadness of memories. He kept looking in the direction of Niang'er Village and remained silent.
Seeing him like this, I was sensible and didn't ask any more questions.
But I also roughly guessed something.
That means the weirdness in Niang'er Village may be related to the old madman.
The reason why what I saw was different from what they saw may have something to do with me being a so-called village guardian.
But this also made me feel a lot heavier.
After all, according to what the old smoker said, if I am also a village guard, then I will also be the person named by the City God. And the people named by the City God will be born with five defects and three deficiencies, and lack of soul and spirit. However, I am very healthy.
no.
And this means that I may be as lucky as the old madman and deceived the secret of heaven.
But if so...
Why am I still fine now?
When I thought of this, I subconsciously looked towards Niang'er Village.
But before I could think about it, the old smoker suddenly coughed dryly. It looked like he was choked by the cigarette, and he seemed to have done it deliberately. After coughing, the old smoker stood up.
"Let's go, it's time to work."
I'm a little confused.
When the old smoker was walking towards the village, I discovered that Liu Ming had also walked towards the village at some point, and the old smoker was obviously going to follow him.
I quickly followed him and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing?"
The old smoker didn't answer me, he just glanced at me and then smiled. I was stunned for a moment subconsciously when I saw this, and then I quickly understood and started laughing.
The old smoker nodded with satisfaction and said, "The girls in Niang'er Village are pure and kind in nature, and what they want is sincerity."
"If the two of them came here just for those dirty thoughts..."
The old smoker stopped talking and didn't continue, but I could feel that his whole person seemed to have become much more depressed and cold. When I followed him, I felt faintly weak.
I simply stopped talking.
After all, I was still confused at that time. Even though the old smoker told me so much, it did not solve the doubts in my heart. On the contrary, it can be said that it made me a little more unfamiliar with Niang'er Village.
Soon the two of us followed Liu Ming to the village. Liu Ming entered a house with ease, and it was not the same house as the first day.
But he went in with the camera in his hand, and it looked like he was filming something with the camera.
But from beginning to end, the old smoker didn't interfere. He just followed me from a distance, looking at the houses he passed from time to time, and occasionally showing some sad expressions.
That way, he has many more similarities with the old madman.
In my memory, the old madman often did this when he was burning paper money.
The reason may be what the old smoker said, because the old lunatic felt sorry for the entire Niang'er Village. As for how he felt sorry, I didn't know at the time.
Later I found out.
I can only sigh and express my sorrow for the old madman and Niang'er Village, that's all.
But this time, Liu Ming seemed to be just filming the documentary he was talking about. He quickly came out of that room and then walked into other rooms.
I originally thought that the old smoker would leave after a while, but the old smoker did not. Instead, as Liu Ming walked into more and more rooms, his face became colder and colder.
It wasn't until Liu Ming reached the room he entered on the first day that the old smoker stopped and said in a cold voice: "It's almost done, let's go back."
I was a little confused and asked with a smile: "Is this the end?"
The old smoker nodded slightly and said calmly: "Just come and collect the body at night."
After saying that, the old smoker turned around and walked towards the village entrance again.
This immediately made me confused.
The two of us just followed along and it ended without doing anything?
And according to what the old smoker said, Liu Ming will still die?
I couldn't help but ask again, "He will die too?"
The old smoker took a puff of cigarette and glanced at the room where Liu Ming entered. "If he comes to the same house tonight, his life may be saved temporarily. If he goes to another house tonight..."
The old smoker stopped again when he said this.
I was a little speechless, but I also knew that the old smoker didn't want to finish his sentence. No matter how much I asked him, he wouldn't say more. Otherwise, I wouldn't have known a little about the specific situation of Niang'er Village at that time, let alone know anything about it.
He looked confused about his identity as a village guard.
Soon the two of us arrived at the entrance of the village again.
But this time the old smoker didn't do nothing.
After he arrived at the entrance of the village, he took out another piece of red paper.
There is a pair of eyes drawn on the red paper, which is lifelike.
I just glanced at it and felt like I couldn't move away, as if the eyes on the red paper were also looking at me.
If the old smoker hadn't noticed and folded the red paper at the first moment, I feel like I would have been stuck in those eyes forever.
Even so, I was still frightened for a while after I came to my senses.
The old smoker then explained: "These red papers are called Chenghuang stickers."
"It's a token of the City God."
"Every piece of red paper is something I asked for from the City God. Whatever is written on it, I can get something from the City God."
"These eyes are what I asked for for you."
"Begging for me?" I was stunned for a moment.
The next moment, the old smoker grabbed the red paper and threw the remaining ashes directly into my eyes. Before I had time to dodge, I felt that the ashes had entered my eyes.
I felt very uncomfortable at that time, covered my eyes and screamed.
The intense burning sensation almost drove me crazy.
I feel like I'm going blind.
But the old smoker saw that I was half dead in pain but was indifferent. He just said to me calmly: "If you want to see the real Niang'er Village, just endure it."
I was stunned for a moment after hearing this.
The old smoker continued: "But even if you have the eyes that you asked the City God, you can only see the real Niang'er Village for half an hour after dark every day. After half an hour, you will
Invalid."
As I listened, my heart became a little more complicated, and my eyes no longer hurt.
Because what the old smoker said means that maybe everything I saw in Niang'er Village in the past eighteen years was fake!
This was a bit hard for me to accept, so I subconsciously asked: "Old smoker, how can you be sure that what I see now is the fake Niang'er Village?"
"And what you saw must be true?"
The old smoker was stunned for a moment when he heard my question. After a while, he looked at me with a smile and said, "Then do you still want to marry that girl?"
"If you want to marry, it doesn't matter if it's true or false."
