Chapter 462: Another Strange Death
The cold wind blew very bitingly, although they all had martial arts, they could not resist the cold, and they also needed to stop on the road to warm up, and drink hot beef soup to replenish their body heat. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
When the time came, they pitched their tents and rested to prepare for the night.
Because of the fact that Yu Hefei died of inexplicable internal organs, everyone sat in the big tent and didn't speak, just silently drank beef soup and ate meatloaf.
After eating, they silently tidied up their bedding and lay down to sleep.
Huang Ding didn't go directly outside to sleep with the sled dog, he also laid down the bed, but he didn't cover the bed, still the same as last night, lying down with his clothes, lying next to Bao Xiong.
In order to ease the tension, Bao Xiong finally spoke, and said, "Your kid should have been frozen awake yesterday, right, and slept in the tent obediently today?"
Huang Ding didn't say a word, there was no expression on his face, as if he hadn't heard what Bao Xiong said, he just lay down beside Bao Xiong and closed his eyes.
Bao Xiong snorted, turned away, turned his back to him, pulled the quilt above his head, and fell asleep with his head covered.
Huang Qiaoqiao blew out the light, lay down beside Yang Xianmao, and said in a low voice: "If he doesn't go out to sleep with the sled dog, then should we keep an eye on the sled dog?"
Yang Xianmao said in a low voice: "Let's take a look first, maybe he will still go out to sleep with those sled dogs." ”
Sure enough, after lying quietly without having a meal, Huang Ding sat up again like last night, walked to the door, and went to untie the curtain to go out.
Yan Rusheng said, "You're going out to sleep with the sled dogs again?"
Huang Ding didn't seem to hear it at all, and went out, and the wind and snow blew the door curtain crackling. Huang Qiaoqiao hurriedly stepped forward to tie the door curtain, looked through the gap, and saw Huang Ding walking to the sled dog lying on the snow. He got in, curled up on the ground, and didn't even take the coverings with him.
Yang Xianmao stood up and said, "I'll send her the bedding." With that, he walked to Huang Ding's bunk, hugged the quilt that pushed him aside, and was about to go out, when he suddenly felt that something was wrong. He looked at Bao Xiong, who was motionless.
Bao Xiong is still very concerned about Huang Ding, he sent the quilt yesterday, and went out to check twice in the evening. Why didn't he say a word this time, and didn't even lift the quilt to take a look, this is not quite logical.
He took a closer look, and although the tent was dim, the general outline could still be seen by the reflection outside. Bao Xiong's whole body was curled up in the quilt, motionless, like a cold stone.
Yang Xianmao's heart couldn't help but tighten, squatted down, reached out and pressed on Bao Xiong's shoulder and shook it. He noticed that his subordinates felt wrong, as if they were shaking a hard piece of wood, so he quickly lifted the quilt and touched Bao Xiong's cheek with his hand, which was as cold as ice.
This is impossible, after drinking beef soup in the tent, eating meatloaf, and baking the fire to keep warm, it is impossible for the face to be cold like this. Yang Xianmao subconsciously pressed his hand on the side of Bao Xiong's neck, he couldn't feel the beating, his heart sank to the bottom, and he said slowly: "Bao Xiong is dead!"
Yan Rusheng and Feng Qiuyu were taken aback and hurriedly came over to check. He pushed Bao Xiong and turned him over.
What is creepy is that Bao Xiong, like Yu Hefei yesterday, curled his body and slept on his side, and after being pulled over, his curly feet and hands maintained their original posture, strangely curled in the air.
"It's Huang Ding, he must have done it!" Yang Xianmao said through gritted teeth. He walked to the curtain, untied it, drew the black dagger from his boot, and hurried to the side of Huang Ding in the sled dog pile. Yan Rusheng, Feng Qiuyu, and Huang Qiaoqiao all came out and surrounded Huang Ding.
And Huang Ding lay asleep in the sled dog, snoring, and sleeping soundly.
That's impossible. It had only been a moment since he came out, how could he fall asleep so quickly, and sleep so soundly.
Yan Rusheng kicked him and said, "Fifth brother, you get up for me, did you kill the second one?"
Unexpectedly, Huang Ding still fell asleep and didn't react at all.
Yan Rusheng increased his strength again, kicked him twice, and shouted at him. But Huang Ding still didn't react and continued to sleep.
Yan Rusheng squatted down, grabbed his shoulders and shook him vigorously, and slapped him in the face a few times. But Huang Ding still didn't react as before, couldn't wake up, and still slept soundly.
Yang Xianmao waved his hand at Yan Rusheng, squatted down, grabbed Huang Ding's collar and unbuttoned it, and ripped his collar open, revealing his thick neck.
At a glance, several people were startled, especially Huang Qiaoqiao, who covered his mouth and screamed, and took two steps back.
Because they saw that half of Huang Ding's neck had been cut open, and the incision was open, and the flesh was turned over like a big mouth growing on the neck, and it was smiling at them.
"Ghost! he's a ghost! No, no, it's a zombie, it's a zombie!" Huang Qiaoqiao screamed.
Indeed, no one survived with such a large cut in the neck.
Yang Xianmao's eyes were fixed on the other side of Huang Ding's neck, and he reached over to touch the blood vessels on the side of his neck to see if there was any beating. - If it's a zombie, he doesn't have a pulse.
His hand pressed on the other side of his neck, and he could clearly feel the beating of the blood vessels under his fingers.
Yang Xianmao breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head and said to Yan Rusheng and Huang Qiaoqiao: "He shouldn't be a zombie, his pulse is beating, and he is a living person." ”
If he wasn't a ghost, not a zombie, but a human, then how could he kill Bao Xiong quietly? If he did, how did he kill Bao Xiong?
All of these must be interrogated to know, and Huang Ding must be awakened first. But no matter how hard they tried, Huang Ding always fell asleep, as if he would not wake up even if the sky fell.
Yan Rusheng said to Feng Qiuyu: "You keep an eye on him, I will go in with Lord Yang to dissect Bao Xiong's body and see if he is also dead like Yu Hefei,"
Feng Qiuyu nodded, Huang Qiaoqiao also followed him, Yan Rusheng and Yang Xianmao turned around and walked into the tent and came to Bao Xiong's body.
Yang Xianmao took out the scalpel, forcefully broke the hands in front of Bao Xiong's chest, which had been stiffened, and then used the scalpel to cut open his chest and abdomen. At a glance, although the two had already guessed the result, they still gasped. Because Bao Xiong's chest and abdomen, all the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys, small intestine, and large intestine are all the same as Yu Hefei yesterday, withered and shriveled, like a dried corpse.
Yang Xianmao touched Bao Xiong's ankle, which was in a bent position, and shook it, feeling very solid. "People who die suddenly may have sudden stiffness throughout the body due to muscle spasms. However, the fact that the internal organs are drained in this way is not the result of sudden death. So the drying and atrophy of his internal organs and the sudden spasms of his body should be due to the same reason. ”
Yan Rusheng's voice was a little unconfident, and he said, "Could it really be a ghost? Is it a ghost who has sucked up his yang energy?"
Yang Xianmao said in a deep voice: "Huang Ding is the most suspicious now, tie him up first, and then ask him after he wakes up." ”
Yan Rusheng nodded, took out a cow tendon rope to tie Huang Ding's hands and feet together, and then covered him with a cover, allowing him to continue to sleep in the sled dog.
Feng Qiuyu said to Yang Xianmao, "What should I do next?"
Yang Xianmao said: "Sleeping, only by cultivating enough spirit, can we deal with what will happen in the future." ”
"What if the ghost comes and kills the others again?"
Yang Xianmao smiled bitterly and said, "Which of you will catch ghosts?"
Everyone stopped talking and looked at each other.
If you can't catch ghosts, then how can you deal with ghosts? Since you can't deal with ghosts, it's better to sleep peacefully and nourish your spirits. If they don't have to deal with ghosts, they don't have the mental and physical strength, and they have to deal with other monsters, then it's dangerous.
So a few people silently walked to the big tent.
Huang Qiaoqiao tugged at Yang Xianmao's sleeve and motioned him to go slower, he had something to say, so after Yan Wusheng and Feng Qiuyu entered the tent, Huang Qiaoqiao said in a low voice: "Don't you think there is something wrong with this Yan Rusheng?"
"What's the problem?"
"One of Bao Xiong's side is sleeping with Huang Ding, and the other is Yan Rusheng, if it's not a ghost, but someone killed him, then the two of them are the most suspicious, why do you only suspect Huang Ding and not Yan Rusheng?"
Yang Xianmao said: "Yesterday, Yu Hefei slept next to Huang Ding and Bao Xiong, and today Bao Xiong's other side is also Huang Ding, and it is unlikely that Yan Rusheng will kill Yu Hefei." Summing up where they slept yesterday and today, only Huang Ding slept next to the two deceased for both nights. And he behaved too strangely, eating raw meat, and running to sleep with the dog in the ice and snow, and he couldn't wake up after falling asleep. ”
Speaking of this, Yang Xianmao paused, and his tone was more solemn: "The most important thing is that I saw him die with my own eyes, and I checked it, but he came back to life." The wound on his neck was so deep, there was no trace of stitching for him with what he said, and the wound was still open, and these strange things proved that he was the most suspicious. ”
Huang Qiaoqiao nodded and said, "This thing is too weird, otherwise, let's separate from them, I think all these weird things are brought by them." ”
Yang Xianmao turned his head to look at him and smiled bitterly: "Isn't what happened to the two of us weird enough? That mysterious thing quietly ate our forty sled dogs, just outside our tent, can you imagine any animal in this world that can do this?"
Huang Qiaoqiao was dumbfounded, subconsciously hugged his shoulders, and said: "Yes, this place is really weird, day is like night, it's dark all day and night, no wonder the demons are haunting, I knew that we should ask the Taoist chief to come with us, exorcise demons and catch ghosts." ”
There is a providence in the dark, and as soon as Huang Qiaoqiao's words fell, he suddenly heard someone in the distance say loudly: "May I ask anyone?"
Yang Xianmao and Huang Qiaoqiao looked back and saw a sleigh car coming in the dark, and someone in the car was standing on the sleigh car, asking questions in a loud voice.
The sleigh car got closer and closer, and through the reflection of the snow, it was clear that it was really a Taoist priest wearing a silk cotton robe.
