Chapter 9: A Strange Dismemberment
Zhang ran out of the toilet with his pants and screaming, and his hands shook like chaff: "Oh my God, there is a hand in that latrine!"
Everyone in the Li family looked at each other when they heard her words, and they didn't know what she was talking about.
Zhang hurriedly tied the waistband of his trousers, grabbed Li Mingcian in a panic, and couldn't help but pull her into the toilet.
Li Mingcian was dragged by Zhang's and beaten up, and then was carried to the edge of the pit by Zhang's like a radish plucker.
A bloody hand in the pit was stuck in the stool.
"Scared!" everyone in the Li family exhaled in unison, and then took a step back.
Li Mingcian looked at the heavy scene, his scalp "pouted", and a layer of white sweat rose down his back.
"Look! there's a hand!" Zhang screamed.
Xiao Zhang pulled the fat girl to the door of the toilet, then covered the fat girl's eyes, and leaned on the door to probe his brain to look inside.
Zhang took Li Mingciao's arm and pushed her to the latrine: "Look at Sanya!"
Wang's cub protector was stunned for a moment and saw Li Mingcian face with his severed hand, so he rushed forward and stretched out his hand to protect Li Mingcian in his arms.
"Wang, what are you doing!" Zhang roared.
"Mother, Sanya, she's still young, don't let her see this. Wang looked at Zhang pleadingly, tears flickering in his eyes.
Zhang was stunned for a moment, and then became furious: "Who will watch if you don't let her see it? Who is still blessed by the Dragon King?"
Old man Li reacted, and said angrily: "What are you messing about? Hurry up and go to Li Zheng to report the case!"
Li Mingcian pushed Wang, then slipped out of her arms, took her hand and ran away.
Erya stood at the back of the crowd, and she wittily chose to keep up with Li Mingchan's footsteps.
Li Mingcian shouted to Old Man Li from afar: "Grandpa, let's go to Lizheng's house and say, let him go to report to the official!"
After the strength of the Wang family's cub protector passed, his legs began to tremble, and a pair of black eyes were a little unstable: "Where did that hand come from?"
Li Mingcian and Erya are not far behind her, after all, it is the first time they have seen such a bloody scene.
Er Ya and Li Mingcian took Wang's hand one by one, and the three of them invariably quickened their pace.
Li Zheng's house is not very far from Li Mingchan's house, the mother and daughter hurriedly arrived at Li Zheng's house, and found that there were several people in Li Zheng's house, and everyone was talking about the broken corpses that appeared in their homes.
"Oops, I'm tired from work, but as soon as I entered the house, I bumped into an arm on the ground, and there was some blood next to it, and it was spilled on the ground in black, red, black, and red, and it scared people to death......"
"My family too, when I went to feed the pigs, I saw a human thigh in the pigsty, and the pig was still around the arch, so scared that I couldn't stand, it was too mad!"
Li Mingcian heard it in the courtyard, and thought about it, hey, this is someone who has been dismembered.
Er Niu was in the yard and muddy, and when he saw Li Mingcian smiling, he raised his hand and greeted: "Sanya, you also came to my father to report the case!"
Li Mingcian was stunned for a moment, and then nodded: "Yes." ”
Erniu's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Then tell my aunt to come into the house and say, you and Erya will play with me in the mud, this mud is good, sticky and fine." ”
Wang herself was also panicked, seeing Erniu greeting her two daughters, she quickly pushed them: "You guys play with Erniu, my mother will say it herself." ”
Before Li Mingcian could agree, the Wang family pushed her two sisters out one by one.
Helpless, Li Mingcian could only play with Erniu in the mud.
Er Niu is a little master of kneading mud, and while listening to the conversation of the people in the house, his subordinates kept pinching out a few pieces of human body structure.
"Sanya, you see, there is still a head that has not been found. Erniu said after setting up the clay figures.
Hearing his words, Erya's already malnourished face became more and more colorless, and she used her thin and long body to lean against Li Mingchan's back: "Sanya, do you feel very cautious and panicked." ”
Li Mingcian nodded sympathetically.
She couldn't have imagined that there were still people in this poor countryside who had the courage to kill people and dismember corpses.
Li Zheng was also stunned when he heard this, he comforted everyone for a while and then registered from house to house, only waiting for dawn to report the case, and at the same time repeatedly told everyone not to touch the corpse.
After the Wang family finished registering, he said goodbye and went home, a small cub in his hand, and walked fast along the way.
It was already dark, and all three of them were rumbling with hunger, and under the double attack of hunger and fear, everyone seemed to be beaten with blood.
When the three of them arrived home, the family had already eaten and sat in the hall, even Li Jingming sat there.
Li Jingming has not been replenished because of excessive blood loss, his face is pale, and he is very easily tired.
Li Mingcian went home to the kitchen and got three cakes and three pickles, and the mother and son ate a few bites and drank a bowl of water.
Old man Li saw that his mother and children had gone home, so he hurriedly urged Xiao Zhang to close the door.
Xiao Zhang closed the door, Li Cuncai and Li Cunfu and the brothers went around and checked again, and they didn't find anything unusual before they entered the house again.
"The second one's family, what did Li Zheng say?" Old man Li was smoking a cigarette with a sad face.
He said he would report to the police tomorrow. Wang said.
Old man Li hung his head and muttered for a moment, and then told everyone: "I see that the opening on that arm is very neat, not like we ordinary people can cut it." And we haven't heard of anyone missing in the village, have we?"
Li Cuncai was quite clever, and when he heard his father say this, his mind suddenly turned around: "Dad, when you say this, I suddenly remembered, is this the ...... Ah, who's doing that?"
Li Cuncai's eyes were not big or small, and he looked at Old Man Li suspiciously, looking stunned.
Old man Li let out a long sigh and knocked the cigarette pouch on the table: "Eighty percent is again, it hasn't been a fuss for several years." ”
"Then why did you still kill people and dismember the corpses, and throw them at home?" Li Cuncai sniffed a little nervously.
Old man Li filled his cigarette pouch and lit it and smoked it slowly, and the others watched in confusion as the two of them played dumb riddles.
Seeing that the two of them were no longer talking, Zhang finally couldn't help but interject and asked, "Old man, what are you talking about with the boss?"
Li Mingcian saw that Zhang asked her and pricked up her ears to listen, she always felt that the thing that Old Man Li and Li Cuncai said was very dangerous.
Old man Li took a puff of his cigarette and slowly spit out a smoke ring: "Eighty percent of that Hu people are going to make trouble again." ”
"Huh?!" Xiao Zhang exclaimed, making Zhang shiver in fright.
"What are you talking about, old man, scare me!" Zhang rubbed his chest in anger.
Xiao Zhang raised his hand to cover his mouth and shrunk his shoulders to show that he didn't mean to.
The fat girl nervously grabbed Xiao Zhang's hand with one hand and the second with the other. Erya raised her hand again and grabbed Li Mingchan, Li Mingcian was also nervous, but there was no one on her other side, she thought about it and shook her hands together. It's also good to comfort yourself.
"Dad, it's still spring, don't all the Hu people like to come to collect grain in autumn?" Li Cunfu shrunk his shoulders and his eyes rolled.
"So I think it's strange that the body was thrown into the village. Old man Li squinted his eyes in the smoke, "This situation is not quite right!"
Li Cuncai often goes out to work and travels around, so he knows a lot.
"Dad, I heard someone say something when I went to repair the levee, and I don't know if it's true. Li Cuncai pondered for a moment, "It was said by a 'two-legged sheep' who fled back from the Hu people, and he said that the Hu people have a kind of sacrificial ritual, which is to unload the people into eight pieces, and then throw the corpses where they want to go."
The skulls are kept by their archwizard, and after casting the spell, they are blessed with invincibility in the place where the corpse is dumped. ”
Li Cuncai's words were a little shocking, and he sacrificed with a living person, which caused discomfort among the people present.
"Boss, why are you so scary? Zhang pursed his lips.
Li Cuncai saw that everyone was looking at him with strange expressions, and he also felt that he seemed to have some mistakes, so he smiled awkwardly: "I also heard about it." ”
Everyone looked at each other and didn't say anything until the heartless fat girl yawned.
The chubby little hand rubbed her eyes: "Let's go to bed first." ”
Old man Li came to his senses from the heavy atmosphere, and there was a slight smile on his face: "Okay, let's go to sleep." ”
Li Mingcian cleaned his hands and face and lay on the kang with Erya, their room was originally the same as Li Jingming, but later because the child was older, Li Cunfu built a wall in the middle.
Li Jingming couldn't sleep a little, so he knocked on the door of his sisters.
As soon as the sisters lay down, because they were still young, they put on their clothes and let the eldest brother enter the door.
Li Jingming sat at the head of the bed of his two younger sisters, with a worried face: "This Hu man hasn't been here to make trouble for several years, and it's really possible for grandpa to say that." ”
"Then don't we have to flee again?" Er Ya scratched the back of her head.
Li Jingming stroked his forehead with his hand: "This is not accurate, but let's be vigilant at night! If something happens, hurry up and run to the volcano." ”
The three brothers and sisters chattered a lot before going to bed.
Li Mingcian and Erya lay down side by side and stopped talking, but they were both awake.
Li Mingcian silently estimated the amount of explosives he had in stock, feeling that it was a little insufficient.
She rolled over and buried her head in her arms, but she didn't feel a hint of sleep.
Whether it was a harbinger of the invasion of the Hu people, the phenomenon of killing people and discarding corpses in the village indicates that the environment in which she lived was unsafe.
Why don't you make some portable weapons, such as grenades and grenades?
No tools, no materials!
Li Mingcian was very distressed.
The night at the end of spring was quite cool, and Li Mingcian and Erya covered a quilt. The faint fragrance of wild flowers outside the window mixed with the fragrance of grass and trees permeated the room, Li Mingcian smelled the smell and relaxed a little, and then leaned on the windowsill to look at the moon.
Erya was already asleep, and only Li Mingcian was still in spirit.
The moon wasn't full yet, but the clear glow in the courtyard was enough to make people see some big objects.
For example, there was a black thing falling from the yard with a bang.
It was thrown into the courtyard from outside the wall.
The dogs in the village also barked one after another.
