Chapter 37: Coffins and Dried Corpses
Xiao Zhang, who couldn't wait, followed closely, his whole body was shaking with too much excitement, and his breathing became heavier and heavier, which could only be described in one word, and his blood was surging.
The warning sign "Collapse lot, it is strictly forbidden to approach" was left behind by the two.
The space below is not as large as they imagined, and it is not difficult to see through the light of the flashlight that it is only a few dozen square meters, which is about the size of two elementary school classrooms combined.
Grabbing the rope and moving down little by little, the people working on the construction site will not have a lot of strength, and the height of three or four meters is a matter of more than ten seconds in the hands of two people.
After that, they took down the flashlight from their mouths and eagerly untied the rope around their waists.
Inside, there was only a black coffin, which was erected by two long benches in the northwest corner of the great pit, and there were several large tables nearby, which were covered with dirty cloths and staggered.
Lao Liu and Xiao Zhang were ecstatic and ran to the coffin like flying.
"Lao Liu, there really is, there really is!" Xiao Zhang burst into tears, and he had already begun to fantasize about his good life after taking out the contents and selling them.
"Shhhhhh Lao Liu put his index finger to his mouth and made a silent motion.
"Okay, I don't speak, I don't speak." Xiao Zhang hurriedly lowered his voice.
"Hand on, let's move it out of the way together!"
"Here we are." Xiao Zhang put the flashlight on the ground, then strode forward, and Lao Liu and Lao Liu buckled the coffin lid left and right.
Click......
The lid of the coffin slowly slid out with the efforts of the two of them, and suddenly, a low hissing sound accompanied by the grinding of wood.
Hiss.........
"Wait a minute!" Lao Liu let go and asked Xiao Zhang not to move, he turned his head and looked at the dark surroundings with a suspicious expression.
"What's wrong, Lao Liu?" Xiao Zhang didn't know why, success was close at hand, why did he stop suddenly.
Old Liu Tou turned around and asked softly, "Did you hear any sound?" ”
"Yes, I'm not deaf with the sound of wood."
"No, I'm talking about the sound outside the coffin, I seem to have heard movement just now." Lao Liu was cautious, and he didn't relax after he came down, and he kept paying attention to the nearby environment.
"Impossible, why can't I hear, you think too much, Lao Liu, let me say something you don't like to hear, it's normal for people to have bad ears when they're old, don't make a fuss, it's just you and me at the bottom."
"I really heard ......"
"You heard me wrong."
Just as the two of them chattered endlessly.
A skinny, shriveled "man" hid in a corner on the side, looking at these two living flesh and blood bodies, the thing's mouth gradually opened wide.
"Maybe," Lao Liu shook his head, "As the age comes up, the ears are not working." ”
Under Xiao Zhang's affection and reason, Lao Liu finally accepted the fact that he was a little deaf and dazzled.
"Go ahead, hurry up and get it done, and we'll get out."
"That's what I thought, hehe."
The two then moved the coffin lid together, maybe they wanted to go out early, or maybe the coffin lid was almost open, and the two pushed hard, and the coffin lid suddenly slid on the ground with a bang.
Lao Liu and Xiao Zhang each bent down and picked up the flashlight on the ground and shone it into the coffin.
This time the two of them were stupid, the bottom of the coffin was actually broken, and they couldn't see it clearly before, plus they focused all their attention on the coffin lid, and they didn't pay attention to the wood underneath at all.
"What's going on, Sora...... Empty? ”
"This ...... I don't know, did anyone come in? ”
The planks at the bottom of the coffin were broken, and the edges were full of wooden thorns and faults, as if they had been struck by something.
"It's been a busy day...... Xiao Zhang sat on the ground with a butt, sluggish, like a deflated ball.
"Alas," Lao Liu also sighed, empty for joy.
The two were decadent, and their hearts were full of chagrin and unwillingness.
No one was interested in talking, and there was only the sound of mutual gasps in the crater.
Whew......
Suddenly, a series of strange noises rang out in the secluded underground space.
窸窸窣窣窣......
Hiss.........
Lao Liu, who heard the sound of movement, was shocked and suddenly cheered up.
The flashlight was shining around, "Who, who's there!" ”
Xiao Zhang also heard it this time, and got up with his hands on the ground, "Come out for Lao Tzu, didn't you take the thing." ”
"Let's go, go over and let him share it with us."
"Good!"
The two glanced at each other, then approached the wooden table with a flashlight.
The sound came from there, and the coffin was empty, and it must have been this man who emptied the treasure inside.
It was not easy for them to encounter a pie in the sky, and naturally they refused to let go.
The two approached the wooden table step by step, and at this time, a miserable low sound sounded behind the wooden table, which made people's scalps numb and their hairs stood on end.
"Don't pretend to be a ghost, believe it or not, Lao Tzu will kill you!" Xiao Zhang was not happy at that time, the young man was full of blood, and he was already unhappy, and the other party wanted to scare himself, so he immediately rushed over with a flashlight.
Whoever cares about him is a man or a woman, and when he sees it, he hits him with a flashlight.
Xiao Zhang rushed forward angrily, and soon, he saw the thing that pretended to be a ghost.
It was skinny, its skin was a black-gray color, its eye sockets were deep, and it had no eyeballs, like a dried corpse, but it had thick long hair.
The dry corpse is also looking at him,
Xiao Zhang was frightened to death, suddenly his limbs were weak, his hand was not steady, and the flashlight fell straight to the ground and bounced a few times.
"Ghost ...... Hell! ”
Xiao Zhang turned his head and ran, but as soon as he twisted his waist, the walking corpse pounced on him and crushed him to the ground, pressing his shoulder with his left hand and breaking his chin with his right hand to expose his neck.
The dry corpse opened its bloody mouth and bit down.
Puff.........
The large artery in the neck was cut, and blood splattered out instantly, and blood was dripping in all directions.
Xiao Zhang's skin quickly dried up at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if he had been drained of water from his whole body by a water pump.
Lao Zhang trembled and kept retreating, and accidentally hit the floor tile with his heel, and the whole person fell backwards.
Coo-goo-goo......
The dry corpse raised its head, its mouth was full of blood, and although its body still looked like bacon, it was much larger, and it was no longer skinny.
Lao Liu was stared at by the dried corpse, and he poked his fingers at Xiao Zhang, who was drained of blood, as if he was crazy.
"No...... Don't look at me, you bite him, don't bite me! ”
The walking corpse didn't listen to him, flicked it lightly, threw Xiao Zhang away like garbage, and then stood up.
"No...... Don't come here. ”
