clang!!!

This time the gong sounded closer.

It was so close that it sounded like it was ringing in his ears, which made Old Zhu dizzy. He sat down on the ground and screamed non-stop.

However, when the old man struggled to get up from the ground, the dead face with blushing face suddenly appeared in front of him.

He could even smell a strong stench.

It's corpse odor!

This time, Old Man Zhu finally saw clearly the clothes the other party was wearing.

That's clearly... a shroud!

This is a ghost!

The old man was so frightened that his chest hurt. He stared at the old man and said "ho ho ho" and couldn't breathe.

Just when he was about to cry out for help.

clang!!

The gong-beating ghost fiercely hit old man Zhu’s face with the gong.

Extremely forceful.

So much so that he fell to the ground.

Then, the gong-beating ghost squatted next to the old man.

Holding a stick with both hands, he smashes the gong crazily.

clang!

clang!

clang!

Old Man Zhu's body, whose face was covered by the gong, was trembling with the loud sound of the gong.

The gong-beating ghost stared straight at him with lifeless eyes, grinned evilly, and then hit the gong harder with his stick.

clang!

The gong was knocked down several inches.

clang!

Blood began to spurt out around the gong.

clang!

Old Man Zhu's whole body shook violently, and then he became completely quiet.

clang!

Click!

The gong sank suddenly after being hit.

All around, there is red and white.

Old man Zhu's head was deflated.

at the same time,

A few miles away from the shipyard, in the village named Sun on the other side of the river, strange things also happened.

The wheat has ripened recently in this village, but there is a shortage of labor in the village, so the landlord in the village called some wheat farmers from outside to help with the harvest.

Most of these wheat customers, who specialize in harvesting wheat for their masters to earn a meager salary, work in groups.

Carrying dry food, sickles and bedding, they migrated like migratory birds.

Harvest all the way and walk all the way. When you reach your door from south to north, your own wheat will be ripe.

In this way, you won't waste any time throughout the year.

"Ah...um."

Mai Ke Zhang Santi, who was lying in the main yard of his master's house, yawned, then looked around, and then asked his second brother Zhang Ernuo, who was close to the courtyard wall not far away and also lying on the quilt with his eyes closed, and asked:

"Second brother, it's been half an hour since the eldest brother came out. How long has it been?"

"Just sleep with you."

Zhang Ernuo said in a muffled voice, "It's all about heaven and earth, but you still care about shitting and farting?"

"No, I'm not sleepy." Zhang Santi smiled naively, "I'm just curious about how to hold it for a long time."

"What's so surprising that you're not sleepy? I think you just do too little work and have plenty of time to spare."

Zhang Ernuo said angrily, "Don't talk to me. If you want to find Brother, you can find it yourself. I'm going to sleep."

After saying that, he covered his head with the quilt and said nothing.

Seeing his second brother like this, the younger Zhang Santi got up and walked out of the yard with his back bare. As he walked, he turned back and said: "Second brother, I'm going to urinate."

It was quiet and no one paid attention to him.

Zhang Sandi scratched his head and stepped out of the yard into the darkness.

In the countryside of Dawei, lighting was a luxury.

So once the sun goes down, the village becomes pitch black without any light at all.

Every household should sleep when it is time to sleep, so as not to delay the busy work of the next day.

But this Santi is very bold.

He walked quickly in the vast darkness without fear, looking for his elder brother as he walked.

In fact, just now in the courtyard, Zhang Santi had a premonition in his heart for no reason.

He had an inexplicable feeling that the reason his eldest brother Zhang Dazhong hadn't come back for so long might be because... something had happened to him.

The longer time passes, the stronger the premonition becomes.

So strong...

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Zhang Santi, who had walked half a mile, saw someone standing on the river bank by the village dozens of meters away.

The man kept swaying from side to side.

He didn't think too much and walked quickly over to see who it was.

After getting closer, Zhang Santi realized that this person... seemed to be Zhang Dazhong who left the yard half an hour ago.

My own big brother.

But now, the eldest brother turned his back to him and kept twitching without making any sound.

It's... so weird.

"Brother, what are you doing?"

Zhang Santi walked over in confusion and patted Zhang Dazhong on the shoulder.

no response.

So he moved to the front of Zhang Dazhong.

Then, I saw the fat face of the other party that used to have an honest smile, but now his mouth was wide open and full of fear.

Even the two eyeballs were bulging out of their sockets, and tears mixed with blood kept gurgling from around the eye slits.

"vomit!!"

At this time Zhang Dazhong finally made a voice.

At the same time, the sound was accompanied by a large mouthful of dirty blood mixed with minced meat, which sprayed all over Zhang Sandi's head and face.

"you you you……"

Zhang Sandi was immediately frightened and became incoherent, and collapsed on the ground.

Just when he was panicking, a burst of laughter like a night owl came from the river behind him.

This laughter sounded exactly like the voice of his elder brother Zhang Dazhong when he spoke on weekdays.

Zhang Sandi slowly twisted his neck and looked at the pitch-black river behind him with wide eyes.

"Hehehehehehehe~" came the cold laughter.

Following the laughter, he saw a strange man with the same bare spine and extremely thin body, soaking in the river... and tilted his head to look at him.

This strange man had a bald head, with only a few gray hairs growing on the sides; no nose, only a big mouth that was split to both ears; no eyelids, only a pair of completely black eyes...glaring at Zhang Santi.

"Uh...hehe, hehehe, hehehe!"

After Zhang Santi saw the weird man, he laughed unconsciously, "Hehehehehe, hahaha, hahahaha!!"
