The tall man seemed to be very familiar with Fengmen Village. Even though the ground was now covered with snow, he still easily took me to the place he mentioned. This place was very familiar to us and was the first time the three of us met.

Small temple.

I don’t know why the tall man said that Erliang might be here. Did he suspect that the back figure in the mirror was Erliang? At this time, there are only three of us in Fengmen Village, plus an old man who ran away to who knows where.

In this case, wouldn't it be possible for me to be suspected by the tall man?

It seems that the tall man believes in me more than Erliang. Does he know something?

Erliang was not seen in the small temple, but the wind and snow outside became tighter. The tall man and I had to avoid the snow here. The tall man sat on the ground, not knowing what he was thinking. After a while, he asked:

"What did you see in the mirror?"

I have always been worried that he would ask me this question. He had already asked me this question once before and I did not answer. This time he asked me this question again. I hesitated for a long time and finally told him the truth, including what the old man said: "

"Only one can survive." After all, the development of the situation here has exceeded my expectations. There have been some things that are difficult for us to understand in the village. No one knows what will happen next. It is better to be honest with each other at this time.

a good thing.

The tall man frowned and couldn't figure it out after thinking for a long time, but he still comforted me and said, "Actually, you don't have to worry. Even if there is such a thing as a ghost, do you think anyone has actually seen him come out?"

Have you ever killed anyone? At most, you just came out to scare everyone. In fact, those people were scared to death by me."

When I thought about what he said, it was indeed true, and I felt a little relieved, because the tall man barely slept all night, and he was woken up by me just after he fell asleep. In addition, he was looking for Erliang all the way.

So he looked very tired, said hello to me, took out his sleeping bag and got in, asking me to help him look at it for a while. Of course, he still held the knife tightly and did not give it to me.

I don’t have any other ideas. The tall man is a person with a strong sense of self-protection. He believes that the knife is safer in his own hands than in the hands of others. The tall man soon made a soft snoring sound, outside

The snow was falling harder and harder, and I had nothing to do, so I began to look at this small temple.

According to the information I found before coming here, there are three small temples in the village, but the most famous one is the one we are in now. These two official puppets, which are said to be ghost statues, are actually dilapidated and worn out.

It is the style of the Song and Ming dynasties. Anyway, I am not an expert in this field, and I am not interested in it. After looking at it for a few times, I felt that it was tattered and not very attractive, so I turned around and wanted to go behind the statue to see if I could find anything.

When I lowered my head and walked towards the female statue on the right, I suddenly felt that something was wrong. I hurriedly took a few steps back. This time I finally found out what was wrong.

At the feet of the tattered female statue, there was a pair of red embroidered shoes.

Of course there couldn't have been a pair of embroidered shoes next to the stone sculpture before, otherwise they would have been discovered by the previous expeditions, because the sudden appearance of a red patch next to the gray statue is extremely obvious. If it wasn't late at night, I'm afraid that as soon as I came in

It can be easily discovered. As for the last time the three of us met for the first time, because each other was too calm, the tall man and I didn't pay attention to these things.

Erliang was the first to arrive here. Did he notice it?

The tall man was still snoring, and I suddenly remembered the scene he told me. Now he was lying on the ground, with a pair of red embroidered shoes beside him, but the person standing next to him was not Erliang but me.

Looking at the pair of embroidered shoes, I was sweating more and more. I didn't know if it was just a pair of shoes, or if there was someone I couldn't see wearing these shoes standing next to the statue and looking at me. I raised my head with difficulty.

The female statue has been severely eroded by time, and the head is almost incomplete. If someone wears these shoes, will it be a person without a head?

Fear occupied my whole body and mind. I wanted to call out to the tall man, but I couldn't. At this moment, there was another strange cry faintly coming from outside the house, saying: "Only one can live!"

I recognized that it was the old man's voice. The cry was not very loud, but I could hear it clearly. At this moment, a thought suddenly came to my mind: If the images in those mirrors would eventually become reality,

If this sentence means that only one of the three of us can survive, then if I kill the tall man now, won't my chance of survival be greater?

The picture the tall man described to me became clearer and clearer, and the idea in my mind became stronger and stronger. Just when I was almost rushing to the tall man to grab his knife, suddenly there were footsteps outside,

Then a person rushed in like a whirlwind. I immediately came back to my senses. I didn't even have time to think about why I had the thought of killing people just now. I looked at who came in at first glance.

He kept shouting: "Erliang!"

The person who just rushed in was Erliang, whom the tall man and I searched for half the night but couldn't find. He was still wearing the red down jacket. When he saw me, he was obviously shocked. He obviously didn't expect me to appear here.

, the tall man woke up when he heard my shouting. Yi Gulu got up and occupied the doorway. He looked like he was treating Er Liang as a prisoner, and was afraid that he would escape.

When Erliang saw the tall man, he trembled obviously and leaned closer to me. He seemed to be scared when he saw him. I don't know if there is something inside that I don't know, and it's not good to be here.

To ask openly, I had to ask Erliang: "Where did you run to? We looked everywhere and couldn't find you!"

Erliang laughed "hehe" twice and said, "I can't sleep. Let's go out for a walk." This was obviously perfunctory. Since he refused to tell us, there was nothing we could do about him. We originally wanted to ask him.

Regarding the pair of embroidered shoes, since he answered us like this, he definitely couldn't ask anything else, so he simply didn't ask. The tall man asked: "How did you get here?"

Erliang still said the same thing: "I can't sleep and walk around." This time I didn't even want to help him, but when he turned his head, he winked at me and showed a pleading look, so I had no choice but to help him.

He sighed inwardly, changed the subject and said, "Forget it, let's put this aside for now. What do you think this is?"

I turned sideways and exposed the red embroidered shoes. The tall man's expression immediately changed and he looked at me involuntarily. I think he must have thought that the scene at that time was the same as what he saw in the mirror.

Fortunately, nothing happened. Although I looked at the tall man, I kept looking at Erliang from the corner of my eyes, and I found that apart from being surprised and scared, I found that he didn't have the kind of nervousness and panic that happens when a secret is revealed.

My first reaction was that Erliang didn't know that a pair of embroidered shoes was following him that day, so why did he go out alone that day and where did he go?

Erliang yawned and said, "I'm so tired. I want to take a nap. Let's sleep together." He looked at his sleeping bag and said, "I'm not used to using things that others have used. I'll give you the sleeping bag."

Use it. Erliang and I will sleep together to keep it warm."

The "Second Good" he was talking about was me. I thought of the coldness all over his body. I was about to object, but he secretly glanced at me. I don't know what kind of medicine he was selling. Anyway, there are so many people here. I believe him.

He wouldn't do anything to me, so he agreed.

The tall man didn't say anything. He looked at Erliang, then at the pair of embroidered shoes, and said coldly: "Pretend to be a ghost." Then he picked it up with a knife, looked at it, lit it with a windproof lighter, and threw it outside.

, got into the sleeping bag again, and said: "It will be dawn in a few hours, so hurry up and get some sleep. We will go out in the mountains soon to build up our strength."

Erliang seemed to be very afraid of tall people, so he wanted to sleep in another corner with me on the pretext of sheltering from the wind. I hesitated for a while, but agreed, wanting to see what he had to say to me.

Because the ground was too cold, the two of them did not dare to lie down. They just squatted and huddled in the corner. Erliang glanced at the tall man from the corner of his eyes from time to time. When he heard his even breathing, he put his mouth to my ear and whispered softly.

Say: "Do you know why I go out alone?"

This is what I wanted to know, so I ignored the coldness emanating from his body and nodded. Erliang looked at the tall man with fear on his face and said, "I went out to follow that guy, guess what?
