Chapter 4, Gray Mouse

Even, I saw that the mouse's mouth seemed to be slightly cracked, and I didn't know if it was smiling at me.

That feeling made my back chill. The moment I reacted, I staggered and almost fell to the ground, and I screamed in shock.

This scream woke up the people in the main hall and rushed towards me one by one to ask me what was going on?

I quickly pointed at the coffin with my fingers, and even my hand was shaking slightly, and I said to the person beside me: There are rats.

As soon as he finished speaking, a gray thing suddenly rushed out of the coffin and rushed to the back of the main hall. In the blink of an eye, the gray mouse disappeared in front of everyone.

Why did a gray mouse get into the coffin?

Someone next to me muttered quietly, and when I thought of the mouse's eyes just now, I felt a little chill in my heart, it was an inexplicable feeling.

Hey, why did the second fool's mouth open?

At this moment, someone next to him made a sound, pointing his finger at the mouth of the second fool in the coffin. Now the second fool opens his mouth and reveals a yellow teeth, which looks particularly cunning.

It was like a fool opening his mouth and shouting. I heard someone beside me saying to come to my grandfather. I found a place to sit down. I didn't want to say a word, and I felt inexplicably weak all over.

After dealing with the matter here, my grandfather went to the room to sleep, and said that if he was fine, don’t bother him.

I could see that my grandfather seemed very tired, and he wanted to rest when he entered the room.

Soon, someone called his grandfather up, and the grandfather who walked into the main hall asked what had happened. Someone pointed at the coffin and told his grandfather that the two fools in the coffin had opened their mouths.

Grandpa hurried over and looked at the two fools in the coffin and said nothing.

Immediately, I saw my grandfather reaching into the coffin and pressing his thumb on Ershi's throat instantly. My grandfather kept pressing down hard, and I saw Ershi's mouth slowly closing.

At this time, my grandfather suddenly asked me to go to his room to bring cinnabar.

Cinnabar, I know that grandpa had children from that family who were frightened on weekdays. When I came back to find grandpa, my grandpa would draw talismans to save children from shocking. Cinnabar is something used to draw talismans, so I quickly went to grandpa's room to bring the things over.

I saw my grandfather tinted some cinnabar and then applied it to the throat of the second fool.

After doing these things, I saw some fine beads of sweat appearing on my grandfather's forehead, so I hurriedly went up to support my grandfather.

Grandpa, I'll take you back to your room to rest.

Grandpa didn't refuse. I don't know why, since grandpa came back last night, I felt that grandpa was much less mentally. You should know that grandpa's body was very tough before.

I helped my grandfather into the room, and then told my grandfather what had just happened and told me that the rat was seen from the mouth of the second fool with my own eyes.

Hearing my words, my grandfather's body shook, turned around and looked at me suddenly, and exclaimed: You said, did that mouse come out of the mouth of the second fool?

Grandpa repeated my question directly and nodded heavily.

I felt from my grandfather's face that this matter was probably very serious.

Before I could ask more questions, my grandfather hurriedly asked me how long it was? I looked at the time and said it was almost 11:30.

Grandpa turned around and rushed out of the room without saying a word. I didn't react at all. When I went out, I saw Grandpa telling the group of people watching the night, asking them all to go home and not to be vigilant in this place tonight.

When tomorrow morning, everyone will come back and send the two fools up the mountain.

Those people were a little puzzled, but grandfather was still very important in speaking in the village. Then the remaining few people left one after another, leaving only grandfather with a solemn face standing at the door of the main hall.

I quickly asked my grandfather what happened? But my grandfather did not answer me, but turned around and walked to the coffin, stared at the two fools in the coffin for a long time, and finally murmured in a low voice: Haha, it's coming quite quickly.

As soon as he finished speaking, my grandfather turned around and walked into the room. After a while, I saw two things pressing in my grandfather's hand, a peach wood sword and a bell that looked extremely old-fashioned.

These are all tools that my grandfather used when he was holding funerals for others. What did my grandfather do suddenly? You should know that the work of rescuing the second fool is done during the day?

At the same time, my grandfather handed me a brush in his hand, and there was something bright red on it. I knew it was cinnabar at first glance.

Kid, remember, no matter what you see or what happens, don’t worry about it. Just press this stroke on the middle of the second fool’s eyebrows. Did you hear it?

Facing my grandfather's anxious explanation, I nodded a little mutely because I didn't know what was going on, which made my grandfather, who was already about to rest, look like this.

Go, don't be afraid of what you see later, as long as you stand still, they can't do anything to you.

Grandpa continued to explain to me that I learned some information from my grandpa's words, and someone would come soon? And listening to my grandpa's words, it seems that it is not a good thing for us, otherwise grandpa would not be so nervous at all.

This time, grandpa didn't wait for me to explain at all. He turned around and walked outside. I saw grandpa holding a peach wood sword in one hand and a bell in the other hand, standing at the main entrance of the main hall.

I quickly took the brush and pointed the brush with cinnabar on the head of the fool.

This is a real participation in a funeral event, because my grandfather didn't allow him to participate in such funeral events before. At this moment, my eyes drooped, and I could see the pale face and slightly opened mouth of the fool.

Although my grandfather had closed the mouth of the fool just now, there was still a crack. Looking at this scene, I still felt a little inexplicably furious.

In the end, I had to quickly turn my eyes away because I felt a little panicked as I looked over time.

Suddenly, the dogs in the whole village began to bark wildly. The sound made people feel panicked in their hearts because I remember that the night my grandfather went out was like this.

However, strangely, after the barking of the dogs lasted for dozens of seconds, they actually began to continue, just like the evil dog who was extremely arrogant before, feeling after suddenly seeing a bear.

Looking through the main hall, I looked at the sky outside. It was originally in summer, there was a moon at night, but there seemed to be a huge dark cloud covering this side in the sky, and an extremely depressing atmosphere was spreading in the air.

This feeling made me feel very uncomfortable.

Suddenly, I saw my grandfather walking forward and I was about to call him, but when I thought of what my grandfather said to me, I stopped and stayed quietly in this main hall.

Grandpa's figure went further and further away, gradually disappearing into the night.

In the night sky, a series of whimpering sounds suddenly sounded, and there seemed to be a painful wail. I don’t know what this figure is, but it gives people a chilling feeling.

Before I knew it, I found that my hands holding the brush had begun to tremble slightly.

My eyes always look outside the main hall. I want to see when my grandfather will come back and what did he do just now?

Under my gaze, there seemed to be a burst of black in the distance in the sky. That location should be not far from our house, but I couldn't see it at all at night.

At this moment, I seemed to hear a burst of chirping sounds from the main hall. When I heard this sound, I quickly looked around and looked for the source of the sound.

A gray figure suddenly rushed over from behind me, and then drilled into the coffin under my horrified gaze.

I saw this scene and almost threw away the brush in my hand, but fortunately I didn't make such a mistake.

But when I looked at the coffin steadily, a gray mouse bigger than a fist was staring at me with her green eyes. Seeing those eyes, my heart skipped a beat.

The next moment, the gray mouse suddenly jumped and rushed towards my hand with a long mouth.

I can only say that it was a real instinctive reaction. My hands shrank instantly, and the brush naturally fell into the coffin.

Realizing that something was wrong, I was about to reach out to pick up the brush.
