The Mystery of the Ancient Scrolls

In the northernmost part of J City, there is a small town called Baiyan, and there is a small village called Educated Youth Village in the town.In the center of this small village, there is a big banyan tree that is more than a hundred years old, and a bungalow is built a little more than one meter away from the big banyan tree.The house is not big, only [-] square meters in area, but this house was lived by several educated youths who came here when they went to the countryside. Therefore, although it is a bungalow with a history of several decades, the village Some people still keep it.

However, in recent years, with the reconstruction of the country's new countryside, this small village has also ushered in a unified plan to replace old houses with new ones. It was originally a great event for the people in the village, but no one thought that the event had not yet been completed. , Strange things happened.

When it comes to the strange things that happened in the educated youth village, we have to start from three months ago.

Since the reconstruction of the new countryside requires every household to move out of the old house before building a new one, everyone has rented houses in a short period of time.However, it is inevitable that some of them cannot find a place to live at once, so after discussion, the village provided a few houses owned by the village and lent them to the villagers who did not rent a house as a temporary residence.

Villager Wang Minghui's family was allocated the same educated youth room, but since the two children of their family bought houses in the city and lived there, the last person who lived in that room was only Wang Minghui, who was over fifty years old. That's all.

That day when the two children came back to help move the house, they couldn't convince their father to live in the city with them, so they left together after dinner, but no one expected to see them when they came back the next day It was just Wang Minghui's body.

At that time, many people saw that Wang Minghui's face was very peaceful after his death, without a trace of pain. The doctor in the village also announced that he died of natural causes after examination.

Then about a month later, the demolition of the old house was almost over, so a large number of construction workers came to the village to start building new houses.

To make it easier, the villagers have all contracted the new houses to the construction unit, so the construction workers built many temporary houses aside for the convenience of cooking.Among them, a group of workers moved the tableware into the educated youth room that had not been demolished in order to save space.

Unexpectedly, it happened again. That night after finishing the night work, the group of workers was too lazy to go back to each other, so they made do in that room for a while, but they didn’t see a few of them come out to work when it was bright the next day. .So the contractor himself went in to call for someone, but what he never expected was that the contractor saw five corpses that had already stiffened.

Now the village was boiling, some said that the food they ate together was poisonous, some said that the house was not clean, and even some old people finally yelled that it was the banyan tree fairy and no one was allowed to be its neighbor... In short, there are different opinions ...

But the head of the educated youth village is an atheist, and after nearly a month of rumors about this matter in the village, he finally made a decision.

A week later he moved into the house with a few brave men from the village.

The moon was bright and round that night, and the eight of them sat around after dinner.At the beginning, everyone was very energetic, talking and chatting very lively, but after ten o'clock, some people gradually became sleepy.

Seeing this, the village chief felt that it was not an option to go on like this, so he decided to watch the night in groups of two.After dividing people into groups, the six of them slept with their eyes closed, and the remaining two continued to stick to it, but maybe because they were too tired to work during the day, they were particularly sleepy at night, so the two of them also fell asleep after a while.

'Dang-dang-dang-'...

When the ancient wall clock in the room struck twelve o'clock on time, none of the people who fell asleep woke up, but the sound of snoring was particularly obvious in the silent night.

"village head--"

The next day, when the villagers didn't wait for the village chief to come out at the agreed time, everyone's faces showed concern at the same time. A group of people rushed in together to see the eight corpses headed by the village chief lying there one by one. side……

Everyone panicked in an instant, and other cadres in the village immediately notified their superiors when they saw that something was wrong, and reported the matter in detail...
