The ghost knocked on the door, luckily I was able to read the save file!

Looking at the window with some solemnity, Lin Luo seemed to see a figure under the osmanthus tree, who seemed to be looking at them, laughing strangely. The silent strange laughter was like a ghost in the middle of the night, which was creepy.

"Zhang..." Zhao Qian seemed to want to talk to Lin Luo, but was interrupted by Lin Luo coldly.

"From now on, keep quiet!"

Lin Luo looked at the blurred figure of Zhao Qian, and he shouted coldly, his voice full of indifference and unquestionable, which made people shudder.

After speaking, he hurried to the window and wanted to see outside through the window grilles, but no matter how Lin Luo looked, he could only see the window grilles with fangs and claws.

These window grilles were like twisted ghost faces, which looked particularly hideous in the dark.

Feeling Lin Luo's movements, Zhao Qian could only see the other party's vague figure. An inexplicable fear made him subconsciously cover his mouth, slowly hid in the corner, closed his eyes and dared not speak. His body trembled slightly, and his heartbeat accelerated rapidly, as if something terrible was about to happen in the next second.

The quiet night gave people an unspeakable depression. This depression was like a heavy mountain, which made people breathless.

The whole room was filled with a tense atmosphere, and only the occasional sound of wind from the window broke the dead silence.

Wu Shan and Zhang Yuan sat cross-legged on the bed and on the bench respectively, and the atmosphere seemed a little dull.

"What secrets does this village have?" Zhang Yuan muttered to himself, frowning, as if he was lost in thought.

His mind was now full of clues discovered and understood in the past two days, but these clues always made people feel a little intermittent, but could not be pieced together into a complete picture.

Wu Shan said, "Tomorrow is the day of sacrifice, and we should know the answer by then." His voice was a little low and bitter.

Zhang Yuan nodded and said, "Well, I hope so. But we still have to be careful. This village chief doesn't look simple." His eyes revealed a trace of worry and vigilance.

Wu Shanqiang smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, as long as we stay alert, nothing should happen." After that, he added: "By the way, you go and rest first. If there is any disturbance, I will call you."

Zhang Yuan nodded in agreement. It was already late, and if he didn't rest well, he might even have trouble keeping watch. So he lay on the bed with his clothes on, closed his eyes and began to doze off.

Wu Shan looked at the door nervously, and a sense of fear surged in his heart.

The tragic death of Li Yuan kept appearing in his mind, and the horrible scene made him feel a chill rising from his spine.

He couldn't help but shudder, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down.

However, the feeling of fear always lingered in his heart and could not be shaken off.

In the next room, Tong Tong and Zhao Shuang were crowded together in the corner of the bed.

Neither of them dared to keep watch alone, so they naturally chose to keep watch together.

They didn't sleep well last night. At this moment, both of them had bloodshot eyes and lingering deep fatigue. Thinking about her experience, Zhao Shuang hugged her knees with both hands and couldn't help sobbing.

"Why, why did I come here?"

Zhao Shuang's voice was trembling, fear and despair intertwined, as if to swallow her, her tears kept turning in her eyes, and it seemed that they would slide down at any time.

Feeling Zhao Shuang's constant sobbing and shaking body, Tong Tong's eyes also dimmed slightly.

They were just ordinary people, living an ordinary life, but suddenly fell into this weird world.

For some reason, Tong Tong remembered the words of the female shopping guide.

She gently patted Zhao Shuang's shoulder, both to comfort him and to comfort herself. She said with a forced smile: "I remember, didn't the female shopping guide say she would pick us up in seven days?"

Zhao Shuang's mood stabilized a little after hearing this, but he still asked uncertainly: "Is it true?"

Tong Tong nodded and answered seriously: "Yes, it has been two days now. We can go back if we hold on for a few more days."

However, although she said so, Tong Tong felt inexplicably uneasy.

She always felt that things would not be so simple, and this uneasiness enveloped her like a shadow, lingering.

But listening to Zhao Shuang's expectant voice, she chose to put aside her worries temporarily, showing a firm smile, and encouraged: "As long as we don't go out, we will definitely wait for the female shopping guide to pick us up home."

Zhao Shuang seemed to have found a glimmer of hope after hearing Tong Tong's words, and she said anxiously; "That's right,That's right, we just need to stay at home, and after seven days, we can..."

"Knock, knock, knock~"

Before she finished her words, there was a knock on the door.

The sudden knock on the door made the two of them tremble all over, subconsciously holding their breath, and looking at the direction of the door without moving.

"Knock, knock, knock~"

The knock on the door again made the two more frightened.

"Dear guest, it's me, Village Chief Li."

Outside the door, there came the enthusiastic voice of Village Chief Li, he said; "Dear guest, I just came back from the provincial capital, and I brought you some things, please open the door and take them. "

Inside the house, Zhao Shuang was so frightened that she pulled the quilt tightly and wrapped herself up as much as possible, leaving only a pair of frightened eyes outside. Even if she felt short of breath, she didn't dare to relax at all.

Tong Tong also bit her lips tightly and said nothing. The scene of Li Yuan's tragic death kept flashing in her mind, and the horrifying picture made her terrified. At this moment, she would rather pretend to be asleep than take the risk of opening the door.

Even if it was true, the worst that could happen was that she would apologize to the village chief tomorrow.

It was more important than losing her life.

"Knock, knock, knock..."

The knock on the door sounded again, not light or heavy, but each knock was like knocking on the hearts of the two.

"Dear guest, could you please open the door? "Village Chief Li's voice was neither hurried nor slow, but it carried an irresistible majesty. His voice seemed to echo in their ears, causing the two women's bodies to tremble slightly involuntarily.

The fear in her heart surged like a tide, and Zhao Shuang's tears flowed slowly and uncontrollably like a flood, but she seemed not to notice it, still biting her lips tightly, without making a single sound.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

In the horrified eyes of Zhao Shuang and Tong Tong, there was another hurried knock on the door, accompanied by the slightly dissatisfied voice of Village Chief Li: "Two distinguished guests, isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to let an old man like me stand at the door with gifts like this?"

Zhao Shuang and Tong Tong obviously heard the displeasure in his tone, but they still bit their lips tightly and remained silent, as if they were really asleep.
