Chapter 136: The Truth

The hiding place has been revealed, and there is no need to continue to squeeze into this small crack. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Ye Cheng and Bai Yingping glanced at each other, ready to remember.

Suddenly, through the light of the oil lamp, a huge figure appeared on the wall behind the bed, and the figure was slowly sitting up.

Knowing that the figure was projected from the bed, Ye Cheng slowly straightened up in shock, and his eyes were placed on the bed board a little. Suddenly stared at a pair of big eyes. The female corpse lying on the bed was sitting up little by little, as if it had been cheated.

The female corpse who had just sat up straight suddenly turned around and quickly pasted her face on the mosquito net, which was pushed out of the shape of a human face. With a pair of big eyes, it looks very scary.

It's a little cramped space, and the light is a little dark and scary. The terrifying thing of a corpse sitting up inexplicably frightened Ye Cheng into a panic and pushed Bai Yingping out quickly.

When he got out of front of the bed, Ye Cheng hadn't come to his senses yet, his heart was beating very fast, and he wanted to continue running, but someone stopped him in front of him. He could only turn and look inside the bed in fear to see if the female corpse would get out of bed.

But seeing the female corpse slowly lying flat on the bed, Ye Cheng's nervous and frightened emotions gradually eased.

At this time, a familiar man shouted angrily from the front of the bed, "Sure enough, it's you, tell me, why are you investigating the village?" ”

Turning his head to look over, it turned out to be the man who persuaded himself to cover up when he went to the toilet just now. The man rushed to the shopkeeper's side with an angry face. And now the shopkeeper is still wrapped in a blue divine power.

The shopkeeper dissipated his strength, stretched out his right hand holding the oil lamp and stopped the man, "Second brother, don't be impulsive, help me hold the oil lamp first"

The man was a little reluctant, but finally took the oil lamp.

The shopkeeper bowed to Ye Cheng and said, "I'm sorry, my second brother is sometimes a little quick-tempered, don't be surprised." It has been ten years since our three brothers came to this village, and we have never killed a person or robbed the people......."

Ye Cheng felt a little inexplicable, there was obviously a corpse lying in the bed, and the shopkeeper actually said that he had not killed anyone. He pointed to the female corpse in the bed and said angrily, "Then what's going on with this corpse, do you dare to say that it has nothing to do with you?" ”

The shopkeeper didn't get angry because Ye Cheng interrupted him, but patiently explained, "Her death really has nothing to do with us. I remember that it was a cold winter, and my three brothers came here because of the famine, only to find that the people in this village were already dead. Whether it is adults or children, even women and the elderly, their bodies are exposed outside the house. Not wanting to wander around, I used the skeleton puppet to control them and make the village look like it was still alive. ”

The shopkeeper said and pointed sideways to another man standing next to the round table, and continued, "That's my third brother, although he is a little feminine, he can wear makeup, so we painted the whole village to make them look like a dead man. That's all, if you still don't believe it, then I have no choice but to ask you to leave."

After listening to the shopkeeper's explanation, Ye Cheng gradually believed it. If it was really these three people who killed the whole village, they should have run away early, how could they stay and wait for someone to arrest them.

Suddenly, Ye Cheng thought of the conversation he had heard in the tavern before, he became suspicious again, and asked, "I heard your conversation in the tavern before, and you said that you wanted to do something to us, isn't this true?" ”

The shopkeeper smiled slightly and explained, "This is all a misunderstanding, in order to make a living, our three brothers will rob some corrupt officials and bad people and rich businessmen passing by, but they have never done anything to the poor people." Because I saw you coming in a carriage, and there were a few people with bad faces, they thought you were not good people, so they wanted to attack you."

Ye Cheng looked embarrassed! He had already guessed in his heart who the shopkeeper said was the person with a bad face, although the five brothers of the family were a little thicker, they were still very kind in their hearts.

Having said that, it seems that the three brothers have already told the secrets of the Bone Puppet Village.

But Ye Cheng still had some doubts, and stared at the shopkeeper with a pair of puzzled eyes. Why do they say everything?

"Why do you think we're not good people, why do you tell us everything?" Suddenly, Bai Yingping, who was beside him, took the lead in asking.

Ye Cheng was a little surprised in his heart, his question was asked by Bai Yingping first, and it seemed that Bai Yingping had also discovered this problem.

Ye Cheng continued to stare at the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper's smiling expression gradually became a little serious, and he said, "I told you that I want you not to continue to bother to investigate." This is our home, our village. We've been in business for 10 years, and I don't want to be ruined by you. ”

The shopkeeper bowed and said respectfully, "So please leave as soon as possible tomorrow morning."

Hearing these words, Ye Cheng felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. From the words of the shopkeeper, it can be heard that they know that all this is fake. These are dead people, who should have been buried in the earth, but were used by the treasurer to construct their own world.

"Why would these three people rather live in an illusory world for ten years than go out and see those living worlds, what kind of famine did they go through to cause them to become what they are today?"

As an orphan, Ye Cheng seems to understand a little.

Suddenly, Bai Yingping stepped forward and said with some seriousness, "I'm afraid we can't leave for the time being."

These words immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the second brother of the shopkeeper, and he roared angrily at Bai Yingping, "What are you talking about! Good students advise you to leave, don't be ignorant"

Seeing that these two people were about to have a physical conflict, Ye Cheng hurriedly blocked in front of Bai Yingping.

The shopkeeper seemed to sense that something was wrong, and immediately stepped forward to block the angry man.

Ye Cheng hurriedly explained at this time, "It's not that we won't leave, it's just that one of us has a man who is seriously injured and must go to the nearby county town to find someone who can heal him." We'll leave right away after the treatment."

The man shouted behind the shopkeeper, "If you continue to walk forward, there will be a county town for two days, why don't you take him there?"

"I'm sorry, but it's not convenient for all of us to enter the county. And that person injured the spine, the bumps of the long journey will cause further damage to the spine, if the spine injury is too serious, it will be more difficult to treat, so I can't take such a risk" Ye Cheng said anxiously.

"Spine?" The shopkeeper showed a pair of puzzled eyes, then looked over and asked, "If I can help you heal that man, can you leave the Bone Puppet Village immediately?"

"Can you heal a broken spine?" Ye Cheng looked surprised.
