Chapter 4: Strange Corpses
As usual, the Lin family's breakfast is still sorghum cakes, corn paste, and they can't even eat white flour steamed buns, and the living conditions are very difficult.
Lin Fan had never experienced such a life in his previous life.
Mother Xia Cuilan roasted a piece of sweet potato in the fire for her son as usual, her son didn't like to eat sweet potatoes before, but recently he has been very partial to this kind of food, and she didn't know that her son had changed someone.
At the beginning, Lin Fan felt that it was fresh, but after eating it for a few days, it was a little difficult to swallow, and he could still eat roasted sweet potatoes.
And today's sweet potatoes are baked very well, charred on the outside and crispy on the inside, very sweet, Lin Fan eats very fragrant,
Looking at the sweet appearance of their son holding sweet potatoes and eating, the couple was sad and happy.
"Lately, we seem to have dinner. Xia Cuilan bit the sorghum cake and said with relief.
"Don't you know, this kid is so strong now, I can't control him anymore," Lin Haishan stared at his son and said happily.
The couple stared at their son happily for a while, and then whispered to each other about the strange things of Xiao Ahua and Ge Wang's family, Lin Haishan said, "It's a pity that the two boys of Ge Wang's family are seventeen or eighteen years old, and the eldest one is determined to be married......
Xia Cuihua said, "I also blame them for being careless, if they don't enter the village before dark, it's not looking for death!" Speaking of this, she glanced at Lin Fan, "Can't we let our dumb go out when it gets dark in the future......"
Lin Fan glanced at his mother and asked the question in his heart, "Ah Niang, it's not safe in the village, Xiao Ah Hua hasn't even left the house, and she's not dead." ”
Hearing this, the couple was stunned, and then looked at each other, both a little surprised and a little surprised.
My son used to be dumbfounded, he didn't understand anything, he didn't ask, he was like a wooden man, but now, he seems to be awake, he can find problems, and he likes to ask questions.
The couple didn't answer, they felt that it was better not to let their son know about these things,
Seeing their son standing outside the door and throwing sweet potato skins, the couple couldn't help but talk quietly,
Lin Haishan said, "Dumb this question, it's really a problem, there was no such phenomenon in the village before, after all, there are three temples in our Sanmiao Village, as long as you don't leave the village after dark, nothing will happen, but now it's ......"
Xia Cuilan said, "It's not all to blame Xu Mingkuan, I heard that last year, the big guy gave him all the offerings in the temple, and the night wandering god in the temple was gone, and he had already run out......"
"It's good that there are patrols at night, otherwise I don't know what would have happened?"
Lin Haishan said, "I can't remember if you don't say this, when I was in charge of patrolling the day before yesterday, I found that Xu Mingkuan went to the temple in the middle of the night, and he took an old man with him......"
Xia Cuihua was stunned for a moment, and said, "Uh, yes, I don't know what kind of fame he is doing?" It is estimated that there is no good thing, he has been the village chief for many years, and he has not created any blessings for the big guys, but he has created a lot of disasters......
Lin Haishan nodded, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I met Li Dazui today, and he advised us to move to the city, and the city is safe ......."
"Moving to the city, in the case of our family, why don't you go to the city to beg for food?" Xia Cuilan rolled her eyes at her husband.
"We're all half-cut into the ground, what are we afraid of, but Dumb is still young, I want him to enter the city......" Lin Haishan said, looking at his wife with a hint of pleading in his eyes.
"What do you think I'm doing? Can I let Dumb into the city?" said Xia Cuilan.
"Isn't your mother's brother in the Haitian Gang in the county seat, let Dumb go to his uncle Qiusheng to ......"
"The county is safe and the food is good, you think I don't want my son to go, in fact, I have already greeted Qiusheng," Xia Cuilan said, "But Qiusheng said, their Haitian Gang recruits apprentices, but there are conditions, and they need to be strong and flexible, and they will have to conduct a strict assessment, and he said that we can't pass the test at all......"
"But you also saw it, our dumb is different from before now, he has a lot of strength, and besides, you didn't look at him, and his mind has become brighter......" Lin Haishan said, glancing out the door.
Xia Cuilan said, "Well, our dumb has changed a lot, but, Qiusheng said, it is very hard to be an apprentice in the Haitian Gang, not only to practice martial arts, but also to do chores, I am afraid that our dumb will not be able to bear it......"
Lin Haishan said, "That's better than nesting in the village, nesting in the village for a lifetime, what is the big deal, and besides, staying in the village, there is more luck and less ......"
"That's right, alas," Xia Cuilan sighed, "I'll ask him ...... next time Qiusheng comes home."
......
Lin Fan stood outside the door and eavesdropped on his parents' speech, although his parents' voices were small, he heard them all.
After hearing this, he did not enter the house, but went directly to the hospital and went to Beigou Linzi, where the two sons of the Ge Wang family died, and he wanted to see what was going on.
Beigou Forest, not a big place, about 500 meters north of the village, there is a ditch river, a large forest by the river, it is the Beigou Forest, that place is very desolate.
But today, the Beigou forest is very lively, the villagers of Sanmiao Village, as well as the villagers of the neighboring villages, are all gathered there to watch the excitement.
Lin Fan came to the Beigou forest, squeezed into the crowd, and walked to the scene of the accident, and saw two corpses lying on the ground in the forest.
The body is still complete, even the clothes are not torn, there are no obvious scars on the limbs and torso, the injury is on the head, the skull has been uncovered, the head has been hollowed out, and the blood and brain have been smeared on the ground.
These two corpses are naturally Ge Wan's two sons.
The brothers' eyes were wide open, blood was spilling from the corners of their eyes, their mouths were wide open, there were blood stains at the corners of their mouths, and blood was spilling from their noses and ears.
The point is that it has only been dead for a short time, and the corpse has become very white, as if it has been coated with a layer of lime, which is very weird.
At this time, don't say that the crowd of onlookers didn't dare to get too close, even Ge Wang and his youngest son, who were guarding the corpse, didn't dare to get too close, and the father and son just squatted next to the corpse and sobbed.
The villagers whispered to each other:
"It must be a monster, it's terrible. ”
"This monster is not ordinary, it doesn't eat corpses, it only digs out its brains. ”
"It's a little weird, it doesn't look like a monster...... It's a bit like a stiff one. ”
......
Listening to such discussions, Lin Fan swept his eyes around, and saw that the village chief Xu Mingkuan did not come, and felt very strange, in this place, the village chief's power is very great.
Great power and great responsibility, generally there is a major event in the village, and the village chief has to go to the scene to take charge.
Strangely, Lin Fan walked to Ge Wang's side and reminded, "Uncle, bury it, what are you waiting for?"
Ge Wang turned his head to look at Lin Fan, and saw that Lin Fan, who was like a wooden man before, actually took the initiative to talk to him and remind him to bury the body, he couldn't help but be surprised, and replied, "The village chief hasn't arrived yet." ”
As soon as he said this, there was a commotion in the crowd of onlookers, and someone said, "The village chief is here, the village chief is here......
When Lin Fan turned his head to look, he saw that the crowd took the initiative to separate and make way for a way, and the village chief Xu Mingkuan walked coldly with his hands behind his back.
