Chapter 526 Witchcraft 4
The original owner had just finished the college entrance examination and was admitted to a good 211 university. She was going to register at the university in a few days. Just as she and Ning's mother were preparing their luggage for school, something happened in Wucun.
First of all, Wucun is located near the mountains. After Ning's father left, Ning's uncle had his wife invite the neighbor's daughter-in-law to cook two tables that evening to thank the villagers who came to help.
No sooner had these people left after eating and drinking their fill than the wolf pack came down from the mountain.
These wolves would bite anyone they saw. Fortunately, it was nighttime, and the elderly people in the village went to bed early and weren't out much. When they heard the wolves howling, they quickly closed their doors and windows, and some even started chanting curses.
Several of the wolves ran into the Ning family's house.
When the eldest cousin saw that the situation was bad, he pulled his wife and children back into the house and closed the door tightly. The uncle and aunt, who were a step too slow, didn't have time to escape. The screams lasted for more than half an hour before they stopped.
However, the tightly closed door wasn't opened until the next morning when people were already talking outside.
The moment the door opened, the eldest sister-in-law, who was in her thirties, fainted from fright upon seeing the horrific scene in the yard.
My older cousin squatted on the ground and dry heaved for a while, then picked up his wife, called the children, and ran outside.
However, he discovered that no matter how he drove, the car was just spinning in circles, and they couldn't get out of the village.
The father and son broke down in tears in the car. After being woken up by the crying, the eldest cousin's wife scratched his face all over like a shrew.
My older cousin was angry but dared not take it out on his wife. His grandparents were dead, his parents were dead, and he was counting on his wife to give him a good life in the future.
Although his family's hardware store is profitable, it only allows his family to live a wealthy life. His wife, on the other hand, is a genuine second-generation rich kid, and one of her bags costs hundreds of thousands of yuan. He definitely has to protect her.
"Wife, don't be angry. There are many capable people in the village. I believe it will be fine in a couple of days."
"Oh, right, we can call for help."
The eldest sister-in-law forgot about getting angry and tried to call for help on her cell phone, but there was no signal.
Wuzhen is like a shield, isolated from the world.
No, it's not completely isolated from the world, because people from outside can still come in when they go home.
My older cousin's family witnessed people entering the village.
So they tried to break out again, but obviously, they failed once more.
In the end, they had no choice but to drive the car back to the old house.
However, as soon as the family of three got off the bus, strange things started happening in the village again.
The old man of the Ding family became a headless corpse. His body remained kneeling on both knees, and next to his body were written the words: I am guilty!
It's as if they are atoning for something.
The eldest sister-in-law fainted again after taking one look.
The villagers who knew witchcraft gathered together and studied the matter for most of the night, finally confirming one thing: Wucun had suffered a backlash.
Otherwise, there is no other reason to explain everything that happened in the village.
There's no way around it; whether one dies or three dies, everyone will make the choice.
Of course, some parents would choose to let their children live, but my older cousin and his wife were clearly not the exception.
Three days later, on a pitch-black night, a bonfire was lit in the village square, and the whole village gathered around to watch.
Soon, those who had been gagged and tied up were brought into the arena. The eldest sister-in-law couldn't bear to watch and ran home crying.
After she left, the village's most powerful sorcerer, the clan chief, was about to cast a spell. Suddenly, a large swarm of bats appeared in the sky. These bats bit anyone they saw, and the villagers scattered in all directions as they were bitten. Those who were bitten screamed in agony, and then some collapsed to the ground, unable to get up.
It is common knowledge that bats are not poisonous, but the person bitten by a bat tonight died very quickly.
My eldest cousin was unfortunately bitten by a bat, but among those tied to the altar, only one old lady was bitten to death; the others were fine.
The bats didn't leave until the next morning, and by then, almost everyone in the village was dead.
The eldest cousin's wife also discovered the eldest cousin's body. She was heartbroken, but she couldn't dwell on her grief. She untied the ropes binding her son and hid back in the old house.
The twelve-year-old child was so frightened by the night that he developed a high fever. The eldest sister-in-law gritted her teeth, picked up the child, and headed towards the road outside the village. Surprisingly, this time she was able to walk out. She didn't even bother to collect her husband's body and took the child straight to the hospital in the city, while also calling the police.
When the police arrived in the village, they were also unable to solve this supernatural phenomenon. After a forensic examination, they found that the dead people all had an unknown virus in their bodies. In the end, all of these people were cremated.
Their relatives were notified to return home to handle the funeral arrangements, but after these people returned, some of them inexplicably became mummies.
Including my third uncle and his wife.
After arranging the funerals for his elder brother, sister-in-law, and nephew, and then helping his younger brother and his wife to be buried, Ning's father returned to the city.
The eldest uncle's family property was naturally inherited by his wife, her son, and his cousin.
My cousin was soon sent to high school by my eldest cousin's wife and was enrolled in boarding school. She was just the sister-in-law and had no obligation to take care of her sister-in-law.
The three children from the third uncle's family were all taken away by their maternal grandmother's family, as were their family's company.
Unfortunately, this family didn't know how to do business. Seeing the company's situation getting worse and worse, they sold it at a low price. Fortunately, they didn't abandon their three children and still raised them.
Well, something bad happened when my younger cousin came of age.
When Ning Yan graduated from university, her father had already quit his job. He said that money can never be earned enough. After he and his wife paid for their daughter's university education, they had a large apartment, a car worth over 300,000 yuan, and had prepared a wedding house for their daughter. They also had some savings, so they should be able to take a break.
So the two of them drove off on a trip.
They don't care whether their daughter goes back to her hometown or stays where she goes to school.
So when they returned at the end of the year, they were greeted with a daughter who was lying flat on her back.
Ning Yan was too lazy to work hard anymore, so she started spending four hours a day writing and the rest of her time staying at home.
Ning's parents opened a snack shop outside the community, selling local snacks from their hometown. Because they only made two kinds of snacks, which were easy to operate and tasted good, the business was surprisingly good.
The couple loved each other dearly their whole lives. When they learned that their daughter didn't want to get married, they didn't object. After all, their daughter could support herself and had a place to live. If she didn't want to find a suitable partner, she wouldn't have to.
There's no need to get married just for the sake of getting married.
