86_86324 The five of us looked at him suspiciously, not understanding what he was doing. Could it be that Lao Chen drove halfway through the car and suddenly became anxious, so he stopped the car for convenience?

So I pricked up my ears and listened, but I didn't hear anyone peeing, I heard him walk a few laps in the grass and then come back.

"I need you to do me a favor." He stepped over the guardrail onto the road and said to us.

"What's the busy?" Wu Linyu immediately asked.

Lao Chen looked at the truck, and then said: "The pit in the afternoon is dug here, but the dead people in the car have not been buried today, it is dark, I will do it alone, I don't know when it will be, you see, can you help me." ”

This sentence silenced us all. I've seen countless dead people up to now, but I've never touched them. Yes, I hate these things in my heart and hate the smell they give off even more.

Seeing that we were silent, Lao Chen smiled and said, "If you don't want to, it's fine, but you have to wait a little longer." ”

After saying that, he turned and left, walked to the driver's seat of the truck, and then turned back and said, "You go and wait for me in the car, and I will move the car to the front." ”

It didn't take long for the truck to start again and move some distance forward. The five of us were still in place, not knowing whether we were helping him or not.

"Help?" I heard Wu Linyu in the dark speak.

"Uh, I don't know." Zhou Zhihong said.

Uncle Wang lit a cigarette and took a big puff, and I saw the ignition on his cigarette butt, which was almost lit up by him. Uncle Wang said, "Then I'll help him." ”

"I'll go too," Wu Linyu answered, "This Master Chen has helped us, and I should also repay his personal favor." ”

It's hard for me to say. From the bottom of my heart, I am also very grateful to Lao Chen, he helped us, maybe he saved our lives, we are now helping him do some physical work, courtesy, this is right. However, this body is actually carrying the dead and carrying the corpse, if it is something else, I will definitely agree without hesitation, such as helping Lao Chen carry a few piles of rice home or something.

This inner entanglement of wanting to help but not daring to help makes me not know what to do.

I had no choice but to look at Zhou Zhihong as if I hadn't heard what Wu Linyu said. Although he couldn't see his expression clearly in the dark, he must have hesitated now. When he saw that I was looking at him, he shrugged his shoulders at me and said, "Go and go, it stinks, as long as you don't cheat the corpse." ”

Seeing that the middle school students said this, I couldn't pretend to be cowardly, so I made up my mind in my heart and said, "Go ahead, since you help, everyone should go." ”

As soon as I finished speaking, I thought of Duan Ke beside me again, so I added, "Duan Ke is waiting for us in the car." ”

Yes, Duan is a girl, she can have a hundred reasons not to help with this.

"No, I'm alone in the car, I'm afraid, I'm going to go with you." She even rejected my kindness and said to us.

I picked her up and said, "Okay, you're just watching." ”

I don't want her to get up close and personal with these corpses.

Uncle Wang shook off the cigarette butt and said to us, "Let's go." ”

The five of us walked towards the truck, and as soon as we got to the side of the truck, we heard a sound of a machine rattling. The cargo box of the truck in the dark was slowly propped up and fell backwards.

Uncle Wang protected us with his hand and motioned for us to step back. Once the truck's cargo box was stretched to its maximum angle, it drove forward at a slow pace. We heard a lot of things falling out of the crates and onto the road.

Lao Chen should also be listening to the sound, after he heard the sound of no object falling to the ground behind him, he confirmed that the cargo box was empty, stopped the car, and jumped out of the driver's seat. Almost at the same time, I could smell the rancid stench in the air, which became stronger. Thinking that I would have to come into close contact with the source of these smells in a while, I hesitated a little.

Lao Chen was a little surprised when he saw us standing on the side of the road, and said, "Didn't you ask you to wait for me in the car?" ”

"We decided to help you." Zhou Zhihong said with a smile.

Lao Chen looked at us, nodded and said, "Okay, if you can't stand the smell later, just let me come by myself." ”

I can't take it anymore, I said to myself.

Zhou Zhihong took out his flashlight, turned it on, and illuminated the area in front of him. In the white light, I saw more than a dozen bodies dumped by trucks and laid out in a messy manner on the road.

"You come with me and move into the pit." Lao Chen said to us, "Just leave a few people on the highway and carry them to us." ”

Then Lao Chen took out gloves and masks from his pockets, put them on his body, and said a little embarrassed: "I forgot to prepare masks for you." ”

"It's okay, I'll go with you." Uncle Wang said, and then followed Lao Chen over the guardrail of the highway.

Wu Linyu glanced at me and Zhou Zhihong and said, "Let's go, let's do it." ”

I had no choice but to take stiff steps and walk towards the pile of corpses on the ground. Upon approaching, I saw a corpse facing the sky, its decomposing face exposed in the light. Judging by its hair, the corpse is supposed to be a male. After dying, the body must have swelled for a while, but due to the loss of body fluids, the skin on the face dried up again, and it was completely impossible to distinguish the appearance of the facial features. Its eyes have bulged out, one of which may have been eaten by insects, leaving only its sockets empty. The other eye, the eyeball bulges out of the socket with the whites of the eye, waiting for the erosion of nature.

A swarm of hungry and tenacious flies followed the corpses here, still flying over the corpses. Wu Linyu fanned them with a flashlight in disgust, and then grabbed the shoulders of a corpse, I bent down and pinched the trouser leg of the corpse, lifted it and sent it to Lao Chen and Uncle Wang.

Although this corpse has been dead for so long, it is not as light as I imagined to be moved.

"Yes, move the top one first," Lao Chen propped up the back of the corpse and commanded us, "But young man, I built yì you turned off the flashlight, you can't see these things, and you feel better." ”

After listening to the words, Wu Linyu turned off the flashlight, and in an instant, darkness returned to his face. But that's fine, if you don't see them, you won't feel sick.

When Uncle Wang and the others moved the corpse into the pit, we carried another corpse on the ground for them. In this way, except for the strong rancid smell in front of the nose, without the visual impact, this matter is not very difficult.

Wu Linyu and I contributed the most, and Zhou Zhihong just waited for the two of us to lift the body and stretched out his hand to help it. There's no way, who calls him the youngest, and even if two people carry a corpse, it's not too tiring. I don't know if Lao Chen did it on purpose, or for some accidental reason, in this pile of corpses, women account for the majority, so most of the corpses that have been carried by us are very light.

Readers may want to ask, how do I know that these corpses are women, are they touched? Of course I would not do such a despicable and shameless thing, as I said, there must still be basic respect for the dead. As for how to tell the sex of a corpse, basically you only need to know the weight of the body.

To make a long story short, this seemed scary to me, but later on, I found it a little boring. Move faster, move quickly, you can sleep when you're done, I kept urging in my heart. In about half an hour, the corpses on the highway were emptied by us.

The rancid stench in the air has finally dissipated a lot.

Zhou Zhihong shook his hand and said, "If that pile of meat just now can deceive the corpse, I will jump into the river." It seems that the authors of those supernatural and ghost novels are talking nonsense. ”

"It's not the first day you've seen a dead man." I say.

"But it's the first time I've had such an intimate contact." Zhou Zhihong said, "I used to take a detour when I saw these things, but now, I dare to bet with you that if you take a dead man to sleep with me, I can also fall asleep." ”

"I really don't know how you live alone outside." I said to him again.

Lao Chen gave us cigarettes and said, "These things, it's good to see too much." ”

Then Lao Chen took us to the river and washed our hands. After washing my hands, I grabbed a handful of water and wiped it on my face. The cool river water is very refreshing.

"Isn't the dead man's pit buried?" Uncle Wang lit a cigarette and asked Lao Chen.

Lao Chen took a puff of cigarette and replied, "Don't bury it, burn it, I'm too lazy to move, it's not convenient to do anything when it's dark." ”

So we broke some dry branches at random by the river, went to the pit, and threw the branches into it. The pit was not dug large or deep, barely enough to hold a dozen corpses. More than a dozen corpses lay in the pit, waiting for us to decide their fate.

"Just a little firewood, can it be burned?" Wu Linyu asked Lao Chen Dao.

"It should work, I've tried it before." Lao Chen replied, then took out a handful of tissues and lit them with a lighter. Lao Chen guarded the burning paper towel and put it into the pile of corpses like a stove in the countryside. The clothes on the corpse were slowly ignited by the flames on the tissues, and slowly, it really burned.

A few of us followed Lao Chen's way and put burning paper towels in different places in the pit. Gradually, the flames ignited the clothes on the corpses, then burned to the hair, and finally the dry wood was lit, and the fire became more and more intense.

The stench of burning shoes and hair, mixed with a few other indescribable smells, overshadowed the rancid smell and rushed towards us. A few of us hurriedly took a few steps back, out of the range of the stench of the heat wave. I looked at them, and several of them had faces lit up by the firelight, but they all looked into the pit and didn't speak. I don't know if it's because of the stench, or if I'm glad I'm still alive.

"Wildfires can't be burned, but the spring breeze blows and grows again." Zhou Zhihong said to himself.

Everyone answered him, and all that was the sound of burning in the pit echoed in their ears. After a while, the clothes on the corpse were almost burned away, and the fire was smaller. I smelled a smell similar to burnt meat.

"Someday, it'll burn out." Lao Chen looked at the charred pile of corpses in the pit and said, "Let's go." ”。
