I was speechless at the time. Isn’t this reason too far-fetched?
By this time, the sky was gradually darkening. It was around 5 or 6 p.m., the sun had already set, and the dim moonlight was gradually brightening. I had just followed the man in the straw hat into the tangled woods behind the village when he suddenly broke into a fit of idiot laughter. In this desolate and dim environment, his laughter was truly eerie.
I stopped and looked at him in surprise.
The taxi driver frowned and said, "It looks like it's happening again."
I asked him what was wrong. The taxi driver said with a heavy face, "I don't know what's going on. He's been like this since the day I met him. Every night, when the sun sets and the moon comes out, he starts grinning like a fool. I heard him say he often goes to that cadaver dig site. Maybe he got into trouble there."
I was stunned for a moment, carefully examining the man in the straw hat with my discerning eyes. However, I didn't detect any signs of possessedness or anything like that. Everything seemed normal. So, it was certain that, as Su Xiaoniu had said, he'd been eating corpses for so many years, leading to his current, idiotic appearance.
The taxi driver said, "I'm afraid you can't go tonight. How about I take you there tomorrow morning?"
I nodded. That was all I could do.
We left the woods and returned to the deserted village. It was already dark, and as we walked through the village, we could faintly hear the occasional screams, cries, and sobs of both humans and crows, which made us feel terrified and nervous.
At first, I thought there was something foul in the village. It was late at night, and if there was a surprise attack, it would be troublesome. So I took out some yellow paper and the Seven Star Sword from my bag and looked around the village with a serious look. However, I didn't see any ghosts, but I did run into robbers.
The taxi driver took advantage of my momentary backswing, grabbed my bag, which I hadn't yet put on my back, and ran off. The man in the straw hat, though still grinning, was still able to drive his motorcycle. The taxi driver jumped on his motorcycle and sped off with him.
By the time I realized what was happening, the two of them had already disappeared on their motorcycles...
"Damn it!" I chased them for two steps, but they had already run far away. I was afraid they had already left the deserted village.
The bag is full of my magical tools and instruments, as well as over 20,000 yuan in cash. If you want money, just tell me, don't take my magical tools! Those magical tools are more important to me than money!
But there's no point in saying this now, as he's already disappeared.
Fortunately, I left Su Xiaoniu's ashes in my hometown before I came to Guangdong, otherwise, Su Xiaoniu would definitely torture me to death now... It would be okay if I lost the magic weapon, but if I lost her ashes, she would definitely fight me to the death!
"I told you to keep an eye on them." Su Xiaoniu said with a gloating smile, "What are you going to do now? Should we go back and settle the score with those two guys, or continue looking for the place to dig up the bodies?"
I curled my lips and said, "They've already run away, how can I find them again? - Never mind, it would be a waste of those magical instruments. I'd better continue looking for the excavation site."
Fortunately, I took out the Seven-Star Sword, the Bagua Mirror, the Bone Drawing Book, and the yellow paper, otherwise I would be empty-handed now. If I really encountered something, what would I use to fight against others?
I was just thinking about it when someone suddenly patted me on the back. Damn, I was so scared that I ran forward a few steps without looking back. When I looked back, it turned out to be a woman. She was wearing a police uniform, tall, plump and attractive, with a face like a flower, but at this moment she looked pale and weak.
I was sweating, remembering what the taxi driver had said: a group of police officers had entered this deserted village not long before me, one of whom was called Officer Feng. And the woman in police uniform before me might be Officer Feng.
I walked up to him and asked tentatively, "Are you Officer Feng?"
She covered her heaving chest, nodded breathlessly, and said, "Do you have a cell phone? Lend it to me. Something's wrong!"
