Volume 2 Mahjong Chapter 41 There is a smell of sheep urine
"What? Are there two other tenants besides me who aren't snake people? "Since those two tenants are not snake people, then everything can be explained, it's not that I missed two snake people, it's that there are two tenants who are not snake people at all!
Those two tenants who are not snake people, of course, can leave justifiably, as for why they didn't take away their daily necessities, there are three reasons.
One of the reasons is that they are only leaving temporarily and will come back in the future, so they don't need to move out of the rented house, the other reason is that they have already checked out and left and will never come back, but they are just too troublesome and do not choose to take away their belongings, and the last reason is that they also died in the world of resentful spirits, so they can't return to the real world!
I'm relieved to finally figure out what the problem is.
However, these problems have not been solved, those two tenants who are not snake people, are they dead in the world of resentful spirits, or are they still alive?
If they are still alive, where have they gone now? Is there something to leave temporarily, or has you checked out and never come back?
I couldn't figure it out, so I had to help Li Yingyang again: "Where did those two tenants go?" Were they killed by you? ”
"No, my body didn't kill those two tenants, and before my body woke up, they left the snake tower and didn't enter the world of resentful spirits." Li Yingyang raised his head and stared at me, a look of remembrance on his face.
"But isn't it only snake people who can live in the snake building? Why did those two tenants stay here? I furrowed my forehead, a flash of confusion in my eyes.
"It's not just snake people who can live in snake buildings, sometimes snake people will let some humans live in, and then when they can't find food, they will eat them as food, and snake people call these people stored food." Lee Young-yeong said something terrifying.
It turned out that the reason why I was able to live in the snake tower was not an accident, but because the snake people kept me in captivity for the sake of consequence.
In the human world, stored grain generally refers to natural foods such as fruits, vegetables, and rice grains, but it is both absurd and terrifying that the snake people directly use living people as stored grain.
Looking back these days, I lived in the snake people, treating them as ordinary people, greeting them, going up and down the stairs with them, but they treated me as a reserve of frozen meat, and they were trying to eat me.
This picture is horrific and terrifying.
"You snake people can usually transform into humans, so why don't you just go out and forage for food, and choose to keep humans in captivity?" I still have some doubts about this question.
"Because snake people, like snakes, need to hibernate, and throughout the long hibernation period, snake people can't go out to forage for food, so they have to keep some humans in captivity in the snake building to eat before and after hibernation." Li Yingyang patiently explained to me.
"There are so many snake people in the snake building, you need to reserve a lot of living people, right? Won't so many living people disappear out of thin air and attract the attention of the outside world? "I tried to find some loopholes to prove that captivity is not the best way to go.
"What if it attracts the attention of the outside world? Snake people eat people, they all swallow their entire bodies, and there is no physical evidence such as corpses, and the police can't find anything. Speaking of this, a hint of sarcasm appeared on Li Yingyang's lips.
Looking at this looming taunt, I suddenly remembered the snake devouring the mouse, which made me creepy.
Indeed, snakes eat by swallowing whole, allowing the food carcass to be slowly digested in the snake's body.
When the corpse in the snake's body is completely digested, there is no evidence, in this modern society that pays attention to evidence, there is only suspicion without evidence, and the snake man cannot be convicted at all.
This is the best of times, and it is the worst of times, it is a time of prosperity and prosperity, and it is also an era of rampant sin.
Living in this age of refutation, everyone has to bear a certain amount of sin.
"Xiao Yingyang, you haven't eaten human flesh too, have you?" When I think of snake people eating people, infinite disgust flashes through my eyes.
After hearing this, Li Yingyang immediately put away the ridicule on his lips and anxiously clarified: "Uncle, Yingyang has never eaten human flesh, even if it is the body, he has never eaten human flesh, because the body was a human when he was a child, how can people eat people?" ”
Then I remembered that the little girl was originally a human being, but she was forcibly spliced into a snake man by the snake people, and she was not a real snake person.
I shouldn't have messed up the sins of the snake people on her.
She is a tragic victim, not a cruel perpetrator.
"I'm sorry, uncle, I forgot that you were a human back then." I apologize guiltily.
Li Yingyang didn't blame me, and said with a faint smile: "Uncle just forgot it for a while, no need to apologize, hehe, Yingyang can eat a few more cones later, right?" ”
I scratched Li Yingyang's nose and was a little speechless: "Okay, Yingyang can eat as much as he wants." ”
To appease Li Yingyang, I returned to the original question: "Since those two tenants did not enter the world of resentful spirits, nor were they killed by your body, where did they go?" ”
"Yingyang doesn't know where they went, but they left the Snake Tower before their body woke up." Li Yingyang repeated the sentence just now, obviously not knowing where they went.
There were two tenants who were outcast, and I didn't know who they were, so it was a bit of a headache and I wondered if they would come back suddenly.
If they come back suddenly, will they be malicious towards me?
In life, I am a very cautious person, and I will not miss any negligence, and it is because of this cautious attitude to life that I find that the number of tenants is wrong.
"According to what you said earlier, the tenants in the snake building are not the tenants of the snake people, they are just the storage grain kept by the snake people, that is to say, I and the two tenants who left are the hibernation storage grain of the snake people, as the hibernation storage food of the snake people, how can they leave without permission? Or when it comes to the storage of grain in the mouth, how can the snake people easily let them go? "I grasped the key point and asked in the hope that Li Yingyang could answer my doubts.
However, Li Yingyang did not answer me immediately, she was silent, as if thinking about something.
There was no sound of conversation, and there was silence on the second floor of the Snake Tower, and I stood under the miserable white staircase lamp, a little uneasy.
Room 201 on the second floor is the last rental house I checked, and this rental room is also the residence of Zhou Qitian, the contemporary patriarch of the snake people.
Although Zhou Qitian had died in the world of resentful spirits, he always felt that something was wrong when he was close to his second-floor residence.
In the world of resentful spirits, I also encountered the illusion of the past in the room on the second floor, and saw the scene of the little girl being amputated.
"The place where the illusion occurred in the past is most likely Room 201, so in addition to the underground of the Snake Tower, Room 201 is the place where the Yin Qi is the heaviest in the Snake Tower."
The wind was biting, I was faintly uncomfortable, and in such a state, I actually heard the sound of gongs and drums in the suona.
The sound of the suona in the noisy sound of gongs and drums is extremely empty, as if it came from under the Nine Shadows Yellow Spring, and went straight into my heart.
In ancient times, weddings, funerals, and children's full moons and other red and white ceremonies were bound to be played in unison, because their voices were loud and lively.
But later, many people felt that the sound of suona was too sad, so they gave up playing suona during happy events, and suona was completely reduced to a special instrument for white things.
"I am the only one in the whole snake building, there is neither happy event nor white event in it, why does someone blow suona?" The sound of suona that rose out of thin air made me upset: "The sound of suona seems to come from the first floor." ”
The bookstore where the quest is rewarded is on the first floor of the Snake Building, and the distance between the first and second floors of the Snake Building is only a few meters of concrete stairs.
Through the staircase, I looked down, but it was so dark that I couldn't see the bottom of the first floor.
"It looks like the staircase light on the first floor is off." I pulled my flashlight out of my black backpack and was about to head to the first floor.
But I had only taken a step when Li Yingyang's immature voice sounded: "Uncle, I know why they were able to leave, the smell on their bodies is very strange, so the snake tenants dare not stop them, so they can only let them leave." ”
"Smelly weird? What smell is so strong that snake people dare not stop it? As Li Yingyang's voice sounded, the suona sound disappeared in an instant, and I slowly gasped.
"Well, it's a very smelly smell, by the way, it smells like sheep urine." Li Yingyang rolled his eyes a few times, and finally remembered that the smell was the smell of sheep urine.
"Smell of sheep urine?" I rubbed my chin and pondered it, drifting into deep thought.
But soon, I was detached from my contemplation: "Why do I think so much? There is no indication that the two tenants are going to harm me, maybe they just happened to be in the Snake Tower. ”
"It's still the same sentence, if you come, you will be safe, there have been enough troubles recently, and if you have extra time, let's solve the evaporation of your parents first."
The evaporation of my parents is like a thorn, this thorn is rooted in the bottom of my heart, and it makes it difficult for me to sleep and eat.
"The evaporation of my parents has something to do with March 2nd, I still think more about the significance of this date, as for the two tenants who have the smell of sheep urine, I will leave it alone."
With a decision in my heart, I took out the code and put Lee Young-yeon back in the code.
"The first floor of the snake building is close in front of you, go down and have a look first." I put the code back in my black backpack, then turned on the flashlight switch and prepared to head to the first floor.
But at this moment, I suddenly remembered a crucial question: "Although the tenants of the snake building are all snake people, in the eyes of others, they are all legal citizens with ID cards, and now the tenants of the entire building have disappeared out of thin air, will not attract the attention of the outside world?" Won't the police investigate? ”
The snake people eat the food stored by the living, and they can use the digestive system to destroy the corpses, and there are no traces of the corpses, and they are not collectively missing, so they will not attract the attention of the outside world, even if they attract the attention of the outside world, without the most critical evidence of the corpse, nothing can be found.
But the snake tenants in the outside world have a glamorous and beautiful human identity, and they disappear in an instant, and the tenants of the entire snake building disappear in an instant, which will definitely attract the attention of the outside world.
"A female patient can erase the lives of the snake tenants, but they can't erase the memories of them."
"So many people have their memories, and once they are found to have disappeared out of thin air, it will inevitably cause panic, and when the panic erupts, it will lead to an in-depth investigation by the police."
"As the police investigate deeply, they will definitely find some clues, and even find the snake tower underground, if the police find the snake tower underground, the secret about the snake man may be revealed, of course, this is only the worst inference, the police may not find anything."
