Chapter 329 Who covered him with a white cloth?

"No, don't hold my hand. You are a grown man, don't you have any shame?"

"Your hands are as cold as a dead person's hands, don't touch me!"

"Don't mention that word! I can't stand hearing these unlucky words now. Li Laosan, please don't hold us back. I don't want to hang around on this street for hours. Let's buy it quickly and go back to sleep."

"You bought it and didn't read it."

"Who reads this story so late at night? I broke out in a cold sweat when I read it in the middle of the day. If I read it so late at night, I would scream. My parents would think I was possessed by evil spirits."

"Then you can buy it when you wake up tomorrow. Why are you following us out so late at night? When you get the follow-up, can you resist not watching it?"

"I can bear it, how can I not bear it? I am scared to death now. Am I the kind of person who will face difficulties head-on?"

"Then you said at noon that anyone who comes out to buy books at night will be laughed at for the rest of his life. Wasn't that what you said?"

"……Hahaha."

Suddenly, a drake laugh broke out among the few people, which instantly scared the young men. Xu Lai squatted down with his head in his hands, screaming and waving his arms, screaming "Don't touch me".

During this time, the waving arms accidentally grabbed someone, and another scream pierced the sky.

After a long while of noise, they finally calmed down. Xu Lai asked tremblingly, "Why are you laughing for no reason? Are you sick?"

The man also felt innocent, "Didn't you say I said that this morning? Well, I'm going to use my own body as evidence to make fun of myself. It was you who screamed for no reason first, okay?"

"Stop arguing, stop arguing, go buy the book quickly, and go back quickly after buying it. I really can't stand it anymore. Please don't let me be the last one. I really beg you..."

Several people regrouped and moved forward.

Xu Lai looked at the dark road ahead. Only the lights in their hands were lighting up the road.

I couldn't help but sigh, "Brother Zhou is really brave. He is alone outside so late every day. If it were me, I would be scared to death as soon as I stepped out of the house."

"If Brother Zhou was leading the team, I would definitely not be as scared as I am now."

"How about we go look for Brother Zhou? He should be on duty nearby. We might even hear him calling out to us."

"It's impossible to tell the direction at night. Brother Zhou is familiar with this area. He will definitely lead us to the location in no time."

"Hush, be quiet, listen quickly, what's that sound, is it Brother Zhou?"

Several people fell silent instantly, and when they listened carefully, they heard a sound similar to the crowing of a rooster.

Xu Lai looked up at the sky and asked, "Is it almost dawn?"

However, the shouting was getting closer and closer to them, and louder and louder. Suddenly, a dark figure appeared in front of them, running wildly. Everyone hurriedly raised their lights forward, trying to see the person in front clearly.

It flashed by and quickly passed them and ran backwards as if there was a ghost chasing them.

Xu Lai looked a little strange, "Why did that guy just now look so much like Brother Zhou?"

"I think it's a bit like that."

"Will Brother Zhou run away crying and screaming as if he has seen a ghost?"

"You wouldn't be this scared even if you saw a ghost. Have you ever seen Brother Zhou afraid of a ghost?"

Xu Lai thought of a possibility, "Could it be that he read the new storybook? He said he would bring it to read in the evening."

Li Laosan said in disbelief, "You proposed this to him? You are too wicked. The storybook is about a night watchman who encountered a ghost at night. You let Brother Zhou, a night watchman, read the storybook when there is no one on the street at night."

"I've gone crazy a long time ago."

"This is already a good situation. I can still run and jump. I would have fainted on the street."

Xu Lai said, "Didn't you say it was you? If this happened to Brother Zhou, wouldn't it be weird? When have you ever seen Brother Zhou afraid of anything?"

"Hey, do you remember how he was so brave and showed off in front of us? He even said something like 'It would be great if the thing I'm afraid of really appeared, so that I can feel what it's like to be afraid'."

Xu Lai even imitated Zhou Lang's voice.

"Hahaha, here he comes, don't you see how happy he is?"

Things have changed. In the past, they were always scared to death by all kinds of things and laughed at by his arrogance, but now they can also control him.

"Do you know that night watchman?"

A voice appeared faintly among the few people. It was a voice that had never been heard before and did not sound like it came from any of them.

Li Laosan replied subconsciously: "Hahaha, I know him."

As soon as I answered, I felt something was wrong.

"Since you two know each other, just give it back to him." The beggar handed over the notebook.

But he was dressed in tattered black clothes, his hair was unkempt, his head was big and his body was small. At first glance, one could only see his head covered by his hair, and the faceless head was vaguely visible in the darkness.

Xu Lai shone the light with trembling hands.

Face to face.

It's a head.

No facial features yet.

sloppy.

Brother Zhou must have seen a ghost. No wonder he screamed like that.

“Ahhhh——” The crowd was silent for a second, then burst into even more intense screams, and then fled in all directions.

Xu Lai came face to face with the beggar and fainted immediately.

All his friends who he could rely on scattered like birds and beasts, and everyone fled when disaster struck, leaving him with no one to rely on, and he fell straight to the ground.

The beggar was also frightened and stood there clutching the book, at a loss as to what to do.

Thinking he had scared the man to death, he quickly lifted his hair, crawled over and patted the man's face in an attempt to wake him up.

"Brother, brother, wake up, it's all over, someone's dead, what are we going to do?"

He grabbed the lamp that had fallen nearby and shone it on Xu Lai's face, trying to check the situation.

Xu Lai was dizzy for a moment, then gradually regained consciousness and slowly opened his eyelids.

The beggar was overjoyed and quickly pulled his hair to the sides to avoid scaring the person to death again.

He held the light to his face, hoping that Xu could see clearly whether he was a human and not a ghost.

"Hey brother, you're finally awake. I'm a human, not a ghost. Don't be afraid."

When Xu Lai opened his eyes, he saw a pale, old, and thin face. The light cast many eerie shadows on his face, adding many scary wrinkles to it.

Seeing that he had woken up, he smiled sinisterly and said, "...Look at me...am I a human or a ghost..."

"Ah ah ah..."

Xu Lai's eyes rolled back and he fainted again. This time he was completely unconscious. No matter how the beggar pinched or fanned him, he couldn't wake up.

The beggar suddenly felt that he was in big trouble.

Hiss, it’s hard to find a doctor late at night.

I’m afraid people will freeze to death on the streets late at night.

The beggar tore a piece of cloth from the shelf outside the shop and covered Xu Lai with it.

We have done our best to this extent.

He shook his head and left.

People nowadays are so timid, why would they go out at night? And the night watchmen, don’t they have any idea how brave they are?

The next morning, Xu Lai was awakened by the sound of a group of people talking.

When he woke up, he felt that his vision was obstructed. He didn't know what was covering the front of him, and he could only see white.

Who covered him with a white cloth???
