Chapter 12: A Thousand Rats Worship the Coffin

They were all people who forced me to dig up the steles, and they died one by one.

That day, when Zhang Hu dug up my arrow stele, he seemed to be frightened by something, and suddenly ran away like crazy. After returning from making a record at the police station, Zhang Hu looked a little weird.

Zhang Hu was originally a very bold and fat gangster, but when he met me in the village one day, he was like a ghost, holding his head in his hands, kneeling on the ground and begging me not to harm him.

Later, many villagers said that Zhang Hu had a brain problem and suddenly became demented. Then, within a few days, Zhang Hu disappeared.

Originally, he was a person who did not make people feel easy, and his parents searched everywhere for two days in a row, but they didn't find anyone, so they stopped looking. Said he should come back on his own.

I followed Li Cripple to the big locust tree, and found Zhang Hu's body lying on his back at the mouth of the well, his head hanging outside the stone wall of the well.

But strangely, the dry well no longer bubbles with water. Zhang Hu puffed out his pale pupils, his eyelids turned outward, just facing me and Li Cripple, and he looked particularly crazy.

If I had done it before, I wouldn't have dared to look at his horrible face.

Almost all the people in the village gathered around, and some adults covered the children's eyes with their hands to tell them not to look at the terrible situation.

If Li Er and Huang Hai died because of that coffin, but Zhang Hu didn't dig down my arrow monument at that time, others were already scared and ran away, how could they die in Huangquan now.

Zhang Hu's parents were crying next to them. No matter how much a child does not do his job, in the eyes of his parents, he is also a treasure. This is vividly reflected in them.

It didn't take long for the police to arrive. It was still Gao Ming who led the team, they pulled up the cordon, did not touch Zhang Hu's body, and first made a preliminary survey of the environment around the dry well. Gao Ming announced on the spot that Zhang Hu's death and Li Er's murder case would be jointly investigated.

As the saying goes, the dead are greater. Zhang Hu's parents hope to bury him as soon as possible.

So, after obtaining the consent of Zhang Hu's parents, the forensic doctor agreed to examine Zhang Hu's body at the scene, mainly to find out the cause of death, and the family could take the body away.

Just as they were about to move Zhang Hu's body, his head suddenly broke off at the base of his neck, and his head rolled directly in front of me less than a meter away.

The onlookers let out an exclamation, and the villagers with small children quickly pulled the children and left the scene.

Zhang's father and Zhang's mother, when they saw their son's head rolling down, hugged each other in fright, crying loudly and not wanting to see it.

I was also shocked by this sudden change, and said to Li Cripple, "Uncle Li, can you see any problems?" ”

Li Cripple stared at Zhang Hu's corpse and said expressionlessly: "I naturally saw the problem, so I came here." ”

I was secretly surprised, he had already seen the problem, no wonder he showed no surprise about Zhang Hu's beheading.

"Uncle Li, what's wrong with Zhang Hu?" , I asked.

"Don't worry, you'll find out later."

The policemen present were also stunned by the situation just now. He Xuehua's face was pale, and Du Wei and Chen Fei, who were originally going to move the corpses, stood by the well, looking at each other.

They paused for a few moments before moving Zhang Hu's body to a flat place at the mouth of the well.

As soon as Zhang Hu's body was put on the ground, forensic doctor Du Wei's hand pressed over Zhang Hu's stomach and suddenly said, "There seems to be something in the deceased's stomach." ”

There were still some bold villagers at the scene who did not leave, and when they heard Du Wei say this, they stood on tiptoe and wanted to see what was going on.

"Thirteen, the point is here, you pay attention." Li Cripple said.

I stared at Du Wei's side, and I didn't take my eyes off for a moment.

It didn't take long for me to see Du Wei remove a black object from Zhang Hu's stomach.

When I saw the black thing, I couldn't help but breathe faster, and I felt uncomfortable.

Du Wei repeated the action, and dragged out two black things from Zhang Hu's stomach again one after another.

"High team, in the stomach of the deceased, there are three or three crows without heads." , Du Wei's voice sounded a little strange, and he seemed to think it was too incredible.

I glanced at Li Cripple, suppressed the horror in my heart, pretended to be calm and asked in a low voice, "How could those three crows run into Zhang Hu's belly." ”

Li Cripple said: "Last night, I was actually thinking that using a severed crow to do a yin and yang game must require a very strong resentment. By the time I found out, Zhang Hu was already like this. The person who started it had already killed Zhang Hu if he was looking for it. ”

I was at a loss when I heard this, and Li Cripple lowered his voice and explained: "Compare those three headless crows to medicine, and Zhang Hu's body is a good medicine jar." His five elements are yin, and he is most likely to attract those things that are not clean. ”

"No wonder, when he dug up my arrow stele, he was scared like that." , I muttered softly, I suspect that he should have seen Liu Ruoxue at that time.

Seeing this, I couldn't help but wonder, "Would anyone really go to such great lengths to kill me?" Why don't you just find a chance to poke me. ”

Li lame snorted: "Obviously, that person doesn't dare to do that, if you can use evil magic to make you die inexplicably, the police can't find out, wouldn't it be better." ”

"But he also took Zhang Hu's life, and the police found out, didn't he also violate that law!"

Li Cripple shook his head and said, "Thirteen, this time in Baofeng Temple Village, what happened is not as simple as you think. There are many things that even I, a person who walks on the edge of yin and yang, still can't figure it out. ”

As for the cause of Zhang Hu's death, the police did not give any conjecture on the spot, and I only found that Gao Ming's face was not very good-looking.

When the police were about to leave, Li Cripple said to me: "Thirteen, those three crows will never be taken away by the police, you must keep an eye on them, and I will break the evil method of crows hitting the hall tonight." ”

I nodded sharply.

"Uncle Li, it's up to you to do this, but I still have to find a way to find grandpa, he doesn't have a few days left."

Li lame said: "No matter what, you have to save your life before you can find your grandfather." ”

As soon as the police left, I ran and hid the three crows.

After all, the crow was taken out from Zhang Hu's corpse, and if I was found with it, I was afraid that I would be suspected of being a murderer.

But what struck me strange was that not long after He Xue left, she returned to the well to look for something.

I think He Xue should also be looking for those three crows.

That night, Li lame did the Dharma in my Xiangtang house, and he did not set up any altar, but took the red-hot sickle in his mouth and went around all the rooms of my house.

Then, he put three headless crows outside the gate, lit three sticks of incense and inserted them on the crow's side, and he recited the words for half a minute, so he drew a few runes of water, and asked me to take them and sprinkle them on the door.

As he said, I sprinkled the runic water over the gate. Suddenly, there was a clattering sound from the door panel, and a few small mist-like things rose up.

And the three headless crows behind the three incense sticks on the ground actually made a strange cry, and then they struggled a few times, and then stopped moving.

Seeing this, the lame man was overjoyed and said, "Thirteen, the evil law has been broken, and your life will no longer be threatened by it. ”

Although the evil law is broken, I am not happy. Liu Ruoxue didn't say goodbye, just like when she appeared, she came inexplicably and left without moving.

Now, grandpa is also mysterious, how happy I am.

Li Cripple used his skills to try to help me find my grandfather, but all failed.

He said that my grandfather didn't have three souls and six spirits, so he wasn't a living person. But his soul is not below, and the yin and yang spells are not used on my grandfather.

Now I can only hope that my grandfather can come back and look forward to the appearance of Liu Ruoxue. Instantly, I felt that I was not from the same world as them, otherwise why would I not be able to find them at all.

At about 10 o'clock in the evening, Li Bin knocked on my door and asked me to go to a place with him.

Li Bin and Wang Dacai are a group of people, and I should have hated them. However, at that time, I didn't seem to have any problem with him, yes, so I naturally followed him forward, but I didn't know that I came all the way to the dam.

When he arrived at the dam, he suddenly disappeared.

"Li Bin, you give me a ......", the moon was far away that night, and the light was very dazzling, but I couldn't see half of Li Bin's shadow.

On the dam, the coffin was still parked, but it had moved to an inconspicuous corner next to the dam.

Since Li Er died in the coffin, at night, most of them don't like to come to the dam. But what kind of medicine is sold in Li Bin's gourd, and why did he bring me here.

Just as I was looking around for Li Bin's figure, there were suddenly several knocking sounds from inside the coffin not far away.

I couldn't help but be startled and quickly found a place to hide. The sound of knocking inside the coffin kept coming, and suddenly the lid of the coffin popped open, and a figure crawled out of it.

The man sat on the edge of the coffin and made strange noises from his mouth. I followed the moonlight, and vaguely saw the man's face, which turned out to be my grandfather.

Didn't Liu Ruoxue say that my grandfather didn't have three souls and six spirits and died, and how did he get into this coffin.

My heart couldn't help but rise to my throat, I held my breath, and I didn't even dare to breathe. I was afraid that the sound of my exhalation would be heard by the grandfather who behaved strangely.

It wasn't long before I heard the constant sound of rustling around me. It seems that there are a lot of things crawling on the ground of the dam.

When I saw what it was, my scalp tingled and my whole body itched.

I saw hundreds of rats, crawling towards the coffin.

When the rats crawled to a distance of about a meter from the coffin, they suddenly stopped, stroked their beards, and then stood on the ground with their front feet together, a bit like people with their hands folded.

The rats squeaked and began to bow down to Grandpa in the coffin. After the prayer, my grandfather didn't know what to do, and the rats quickly dispersed.

Is this familiar and strange old man in front of me still my grandfather? I couldn't help but have red eyes, and I shouted in my heart, "Grandpa, is that you?" What the hell is wrong with you. ”

I don't know where I got the courage, but I quietly stood up and crept towards my grandfather.

When I was about to get in front of my grandfather, he suddenly turned his face, and when I saw that face, I immediately felt terrified, it was not my grandfather, but Li Bin.

Before I could react, he grabbed me and dragged me into the coffin, and I only felt like I had fallen into the coffin, and it had been a long, long time.

Just when I felt like my body was about to melt away, someone in the void grabbed me and quickly pulled me out.

"Wu Thirteen, what are you doing here at night?" , the voice of the lame man came.

I woke up to find myself lying in the coffin.

"Hey Uncle Li, I, why am I in this coffin?" , I quickly got up, looked at the cripple Li, and asked suspiciously.

Li Cripple said angrily: "Why did you say you are here, I just saw you coming this way, so I followed you all the way." You cried close to the coffin, and lay down in it, and I couldn't stop shouting behind you. ”

"Uncle Li, it was Li Bin who went to my house and brought me here. Here I saw my grandfather coming out of the coffin. It's like taking a closer look, how do you know that you were dragged into the coffin by Li Bin. I looked around blankly, then spoke quickly.

"Thirteen, don't talk nonsense, it was really Li Bin who brought you here?" , Li Cripple said in surprise.
