Auntie Ma and I answered honestly, the woman hummed disdainfully and looked at the beams of the room with her arms wrapped around her.
Uncle Liao inserted the candles in the north corner of the house, lit and blew out the rest of the candles, a little light can only illuminate the corner of the house, the rest of the large hall, including the old man's body, all sunk into the darkness.
Uncle Liao will bring us into the corner of the light, blocked in front of us, at first there was no movement, but with the "squeak" two rats called, only to see the old man that thin as a dry corpse like a small head silently break through the darkness of the darkness appeared in the dark candlelight.
I was under the body stiff, the woman is also a mouthful of cold air, with a hand tightly block their mouths did not make a sound.
Only to see the old man's small head eyes staring at the drip round, from left to right slowly moving, seems to be searching for something, every time when his dry dull eyes from my face swept over, will make my body skin burst tight.
It was like this for a long enough time before that horrible face retreated from the candle flame, followed by a soft clicking sound from the darkness.
Uncle Liao hurriedly opened the wooden paneled door, and the sunlight penetrated into the room's gloomy aura instantly dissipated, and the temperature increased quite a bit.
