Chapter 2
"It's foggy and cloudy here. Is there something strange happening in the village?" Pang Kang didn't care about the middle-aged man's opinion. Speaking of age, the middle-aged man had to call him brother or uncle.

The middle-aged man stepped forward to pull the two children, and cast his eyes at Pang Kang, his eyes seemed a little panicked, but he still said in the same tone as before, "No, you should go quickly, and don't come to harm our family."

"Harming your family? Where did you say that?" Pang Kang was dumbfounded, and he only said a few words. How did he become a victim?Isn't it too unfair to say this?
Just based on the words of the middle-aged man, Pang Kang has reason to believe that something must have happened here.

However, the middle-aged man looked anxious, as if he was really afraid that Pang Kang would harm their family. He turned his head to look at the hoe next to the house, stepped forward to grab the hoe, stood in front of Pang Kang, and said in a flustered tone, "You If you don’t leave, I won’t be polite.”

Pang Kang frowned. Although he wanted to help, the middle-aged man was so flustered that he had to apologize and waved his hands, "Don't...don't do this, I'll just go."

Unwelcome, Pang Kang was too embarrassed to hold back his cheek, and left in a hurry, walking around the periphery of the village.

"This is even more strange. Bobai's village should be very hospitable." Pang Kang is very familiar with Bobai after living in Bobai for more than ten years. "That kind of tone sounds like being forced."

Originally, Pang Kang wanted to go to Qiu Jinxiong to talk about the past, but the matter here is life-threatening, so it is better to solve it before going over.

"Oh, I really want to call the police. People will die again soon. If this continues, our village will be destroyed." Pang Kang was thinking about it, when suddenly, a trembling old man's voice came.

Dead again soon?Pang Kang wanted to ask someone again, but now someone said that he stopped immediately, wanting to know what happened in this village.

An old man in his eighties was holding a bowl of pork porridge, chatting while eating.The younger generation in the village call him Uncle Seven; Uncle Seven's neighbor is a man in his 50s who is blowing smoke with a hookah and chatting with Uncle Seven.

"Uncle Qi, you are so old, don't meddle in other people's business, this is fatal, you'd better spend your old age peacefully." The middle-aged man took a deep breath and said.

Uncle Qi rolled his eyes at the middle-aged man, and dismissed the middle-aged man's concern, "I have no children under my knees, and I am just an old bachelor. If I had a phone, I would have called the police early in the morning. It's not like you, who are timid and ancestral." You have lost all face."

When the middle-aged man heard this, he quickly put down the hookah, "Seventh Uncle, that's not what you said. If we call the police, we might die faster. The only thing we can do now is to find another way."

"What the hell are you thinking? So far, several families have died. One day I can't help it anymore, so I'll go outside and call the police." After Uncle Qi finished speaking, he threw the bowl aside and stood up excitedly. said loudly.

"Hush..." The middle-aged man became anxious, and hurriedly made a silent gesture with Uncle Qi, and checked left and right, "Uncle Qi, my son called me, I have to go in and do my own work, we can talk another day!" After finishing speaking, Turn around and run into the living room, closing the door.

Uncle Qi spat, picked up the porcelain bowl again, and cursed, "You are also a coward. If I have time, I will go out and call the police to see what that woman can do to me."

"Old man!" Pang Kang came to the visitor without stopping, and asked softly.

"Crack!" Uncle Seven was startled, and the porcelain bowl fell to the ground and shattered; looking at Pang Kang tremblingly, he thought that the murderous woman was coming, and he was stunned for a while before saying, "Young man, Are you looking at me old and want to scare me to death?"

"Ahem..." Pang Kang coughed a few times, looked down, why am I so young now? "Old man, you misunderstood me. I'm thirsty and want to borrow some water."

Uncle Seven looked down at the broken porcelain bowl on the ground, and sighed regretfully, "You boy made me lose my dinner tonight."

Pang Kang smiled awkwardly. He had no children, and his life was indeed difficult. At such an old age, he had no one to take care of him.

"This... I'm sorry, I'll just go in and cook for you, do you think it's okay?" Pang Kang shrugged embarrassedly.

Looking at Pang Kang's appearance, he didn't look like a good person. Uncle Qi waved his hand, "Forget it, you won't starve to death if you miss a meal; I'll go in and get you water, and leave quickly after drinking. It's suitable for you to stay too long." After finishing speaking, he turned and walked into the room.

Pang Kang didn't think these words were new. The family who passed by the entrance of the village and what Uncle Qi said just now proved that something strange must have happened here.

But Pang Kang didn't rush to ask, he nodded and smiled, waiting for Uncle Seven to bring out the water.Uncle Qi's house is very simple, not a living room, only two rooms.

After a while, Uncle Qi came out with another porcelain bowl, and his walking speed was already too inconvenient; he handed it to Pang Kang, coughed a few times, "If you don't have a cup, I'll serve it to you in a bowl."

"Thank you!" Pang Kang took the porcelain bowl with a smile, and drank some water lightly. In fact, he was not thirsty.Looking at the trembling Uncle Qi, he asked, "Uncle Qi, what did you say just now? Why is it so troublesome to call the police? Did something happen?"

Uncle Qi was stunned, and looked Pang Kang up and down. This guy looked like he was in his twenties. How could he have a name but no clue? "Don't ask, drink the water and leave quickly. This is our own business, and you have nothing to do with it."

Seeing that Pang Kang is still young, he doesn't care about the disrespect between the titles, so for the sake of safety, it is better to persuade people to leave.

It seems that this matter is not simple, otherwise the villagers would not be so tight-lipped.Pang Kang thought for a while, took another sip of water, and said, "It doesn't matter. Anyway, I heard you just now. Any taboos are broken. It's getting late, and I won't leave this village for the time being."

Uncle Qi coughed a few more times, stepped forward to snatch Pang Kang's bowl, and the clear water in the bowl spilled on the ground, almost wet Pang Kang's clothes, but fortunately, he reacted quickly.

Pang Kang wiped his mouth and looked at Uncle Qi strangely. Even if he wanted to get angry, he didn't treat guests like this, did he?

"Uncle Qi, don't get angry, just tell me if you have anything to do, I'm not afraid of anything."

"Let's go, let's go..." Seventh Uncle rowed his hands, trying to drive Pang Kang away.

Pang Kang sighed, fumbled out of his pocket, took out a stack of hundred-yuan bills, and handed them to Uncle Qi, saying, "I just made you hungry, and thank you for the water, I didn't count them either." How much here is, just a little thought, don't refuse."

Uncle Qi was stunned, his raised hand froze, staring blankly at the money that Pang Kang handed over, didn't he just give him a bowl of water?Is it worth hitting someone with a stack of red bills? "Young man, are you sure there is no short circuit in your head? It's just two mouthfuls of water, I can afford it for the old man."

"It doesn't mean that, you just treat it as alimony from the government; I wander around all day and rarely use the money, so you can just accept it." An old man with no children, Pang Kang can imagine that It's hard work, and I really can't stand it when I'm so old and have to do farm work.
