Chapter 43: Midnight Horror

I was a little surprised and looked at the sky. The bright moon was hanging high. Judging from the direction, it should be midnight at this time.

Is it time to change shifts?

I didn't dare to act rashly, and I hurried in the corner and waited for a while, but no one came to change shifts.

And at this moment, a rustling sound rang out. I followed the sound and saw the leaves of the big locust tree constantly swaying.

Without wind, why would the leaves look like this?

The moonlight tonight seemed particularly condensed, and I even felt that the moonlight at this moment was all concentrated on this big locust tree!

The next moment, I don't know how to describe the scene I see.

On the whole locust tree, as the leaves kept inflating, the white locust flowers in the middle of the leaves bloomed rapidly. The locust flowers that were originally with green stems were now stained. In just three or two minutes, the big locust tree seemed to be covered with a piece of white cloth, and it was covered with locust flowers, covering the entire leaf.

If someone happened to pass by and suddenly saw this scene, he would be scared to faint.

As the locust flowers bloomed, the rich fragrance also spread, and large white mist slowly condensed around the big locust tree.

I rubbed my slightly sore eyes, and when I took my hands away, a more terrifying scene appeared.

In the big tomb under the big locust tree, for some reason, more than ten pairs of arms suddenly stretched out!

The arms were of varying lengths and pale, all of them were upright, as if they were about to pull something off from the big locust tree!

At this time, many long things like air roots were hung from the big locust tree and inserted into the grave.

Suddenly, a blood-red thing kept pouring into the grave, and the pale arms slowly became rosy.

These arms reminded me of the scene I saw under Ayu's bed on the first night.

At that time, I did see the arms raised from the grave, but Ayu said I had read it wrong. Then I asked Lao Song and Xia Xiaowei, but they didn't see it.

I even felt like I was having hallucinations, but when I saw the scene in front of me, I was sure that it wasn't that I was wrong at that time, but that they couldn't see the scene.

Why can I see it, but they can't?

Why!

When I came to my senses, the big locust tree had returned to its original state, and the arms on the grave also shrank back.

I dare not step forward because I know that this is definitely not a state reached by natural forces. Running over recklessly will only kill myself.

The whole process was only about five minutes, and then I saw someone from afar coming to change shifts!

If I don’t leave, I may be discovered later. Until I escaped from the scene and returned to the dark room, I was exhausted.

If I thought the Red Mask Man was just brainwashing at first, and then after knowing that she would enchant, I began to re-examine the world, and tonight, my worldview was completely subverted.

I have been reading books for so many years and have always been an atheist. I feel that all monsters and ghosts are pastimes made up by people after dinner.

But I believe it tonight. There are indeed some terrifying things in this world that are unexplainable.

The peach tree destroys the soul, and the locust tree attracts the soul, and the ancients summarized it this way, which makes sense.

There are so many trees in Yin Village, why is there such a huge locust tree planted in the middle of the village?

The age of this locust tree is probably longer than the history of the village, right?

Could it be that the locust tree has become a spirit?

How did those arms in the grave come from?

The small tomb piles under the bed of every household are fake tombs, and there is nothing inside, but they will free up the soil under the bed every once in a while, and then send it back to continue to pile up fake tombs.

They won’t feel idle and rush these fake graves for no reason. There must be articles here.

The candy that fell on the ground afterwards was to continuously transmit love insects into the body of the men entering the village. So what about the fragrance that must be smelled in advance?

Is it really just aphrodisiac?

No, it is absolutely not that simple. This set of procedures has a purpose, and the root of everything lies in the secret of the Red Mask Man.

I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, and I was so irritable that I had captured too much information in the past two days that I couldn't digest it for a while and felt uncomfortable.

The next morning, the village became lively, and each household moved soil under the beds at home to make a fake grave.

After everyone left, I carefully went up the bamboo building. Sun Ningyu was still lying on the bed, carrying a bed sheet on her body, covering her beautiful figure.

"Why are you climbing up again?" Sun Ningyu was a little dissatisfied, because my recent actions seemed to be beyond her requirements. In her eyes, I was the one who should absolutely obey, not so casual.

"Didn't you ask me to help find Sun Rou? If I hide in the dark room all day long, how can I find Sun Rou?" I asked Sun Ningyu back.

Sun Ningyu slowly stood up from the bed, and the sheets slid down, naked.

"Why are you getting up? Doesn't your back hurt anymore?" I asked in surprise.

Sun Ningyu turned her back and there were no scars on it. She was as intact as before, as if she had never been smeared.

This herb is really amazing.

"Just behave like a show. I was beaten so hard. If you don't stay at home for a few more days, don't you doubt me?" Sun Ningyu said as she came to me and looked along my gaze just now: "Are you looking at that venue again?"

"Yes, the big tomb that was piled up yesterday was shoveled again and sent back to each household. After a day or two, what is the point?" I asked back.

Sun Ningyu shook his head: "If you ask me who will I ask? This fake tomb has existed since the village was established and has been preserved to this day. The spokesperson said that this fake tomb is used to save our lives and is not allowed to be destroyed or moved at will."

"What if it's destroyed or moved?" I asked.

"Someone once thought it was unlucky to have a fake grave piled under the bed, so they secretly shoveled it off and threw it out, but they were found the next day and hanged themselves on the big locust tree." Sun Ningyu said seriously.

I was extremely surprised: "Isn't it a coincidence?"

"The first time may be a coincidence, the second time, the third time? Such things happen every once in a while, and the outcome will be worse than the other!" Sun Ningyu glanced at me, "Don't think of this fake grave."

"What am I going to do with it? Is there something wrong?" I disdained and asked again, "What about the fragrance used to strengthen aphrodisiacs for men? Where did the fragrance ash go?" If you ask clearly, it is better than just trying to figure it out.
