Everyone was startled.
Children in rural areas are often more superstitious than children in cities when it comes to paranormal matters.
Ghost stories that scare children, passed down from generation to generation, always manage to frighten people.
Ye Beiping panicked for a moment, but immediately regained his composure because he remembered that he was reborn, so what was there to fear from ghosts and gods?
If we're talking about ghosts, then isn't he himself a ghost residing in a young body?
Calming down, she looked around but didn't see anything. Turning back, she glared at Wu Di and scolded, "What are you yelling about? Where did this filthy thing come from in broad daylight?"
The three of them, who were now just short of embracing, finally looked up and glanced around.
Seeing that there was no danger, Hou Baolin and Jiang Hai immediately realized that Ye Beiping was right; there was no way a ghost could appear in broad daylight.
In the stories I've heard since childhood, aren't ghosts always out at night?
The two men instantly glared at Wu Di with hostility.
Wu Di, looking aggrieved, broke out in a thin layer of sweat. Seeing that no one believed him, he weakly extended his index finger and pointed to the grave mound not far away.
"Just now... I clearly saw a shadow there."
But as soon as the finger pointed, his eyes widened instantly: "Huh, it's gone."
Having guessed what was going on, Wu Di began to tremble all over.
"No...no, I want to go home."
With that, Wu Di turned around and tried to run home.
Unexpectedly, Hou Baolin and Jiang Hai blocked them from one side each, and even made a sarcastic remark.
"Fatty, why are you such a coward? It's broad daylight, what are you afraid of?"
"Yeah, you're all sweating. Fatty, you need to work on your courage."
Wu Di was speechless after what the two people said. Besides being terrified, he also had disdain in his eyes.
I don't know which two people were grabbing my arms and wouldn't let go.
Just then, Ye Beiping suddenly noticed a figure and whispered, "Stop fooling around, Fatty isn't mistaken, there really is someone there."
Um?
Hou Baolin and Jiang Hai tensed up instantly, looking around frantically before finally fixing their gaze on the spot where Wu Di had just pointed.
There was indeed a shadow behind the burial mound.
With the wind, you could still see that the person's hair was flowing.
But one thing is certain: this is definitely not a woman, because her hair is not long.
"Come out! Who's playing tricks there?" Ye Beiping shouted towards the grave mound, but didn't approach.
After a few breaths, the four realized that the other party hadn't moved at all.
Ye Beiping could only muster his courage and move forward to see what was going on.
What kind of weird monsters and demons are these? If such things really exist, he would be one of them.
When two tigers meet, even tigers fear each other.
"Beiping." Hou Baolin called out nervously as he saw Ye Beiping preparing to go over.
Ye Beiping frowned and turned to look at Hou Baolin.
The latter said softly, "Beiping, why don't we go back? Just in case..."
What followed was not said aloud, but everyone understood.
It's nothing more than being afraid of those lingering ghost stories in my mind.
Ye Beiping pursed his lips, ignoring Hou Baolin, and carefully walked forward step by step.
Seeing this, the three people behind him wanted to leave, but their feet followed them honestly; they couldn't be heartless cowards.
If Ye Beiping isn't afraid, what are the three of them afraid of together?
Ye Beiping passed by Ye Jianguo's grave and noticed the ashes that hadn't been dampened.
In the dead of winter, if these ashes were from yesterday or even earlier, they certainly wouldn't exist; even dew would make them disappear.
But the presence of large areas of ashes indicates that someone had just performed a ritual.
It's about noon now, definitely no more than four hours ago, since no one would come to worship in the middle of the night.
Thinking of this, Ye Beiping became even more certain that the shadow in front of him was a person, not some demon or monster.
They have also become much bolder in taking steps.
Ten steps...
Five steps...
Three steps...
The closer he got, the more nervous Ye Beiping became.
Two steps...
I could already see that the other person was wearing dark blue clothes, which were not fancy.
step......
Bang!
As Ye Beiping approached, the figure hiding there made his move, grabbing a handful of soil mixed with pebbles and throwing it at him.
By accident, Ye Beiping was hit on the forehead by a small stone.
"Hiss." A painful gasp.
Hou Baolin and the other two behind him were stunned for a long time. Finally, when they saw the figure running towards another grave mound, they looked at Ye Beiping, who was squatting down and covering his forehead.
"Beiping, are you alright?"
"Beiping".
...
Amidst the commotion, Ye Beiping was too weak from the pain to answer. The pebble had been quite large; had it been a little off to the side, he might have lost his eyes.
A few minutes later.
Ye Beiping was helped home by three people.
As soon as they got home, the three of them went to find the village's barefoot doctor.
"No need, some alcohol will do." Ye Beiping, who was in some pain just now, had recovered and felt that it wasn't so serious.
It's probably just a broken skin, and it's a bit swollen.
I was a little dizzy just now because I couldn't adjust to the situation, but I feel much better now.
Seeing that Ye Beiping was alright, the three of them went to find the alcohol in the direction he pointed.
Farmers usually have alcohol at home, and injuries are common while doing farm work.
