Chapter 309: Black and White Photo
"Now? Are you kidding? The owner of the house stammered.
"Even now, my two children are gone, and they may have run into the coffin village." Chen Ge didn't want to delay any longer, the environment in the mountains was complicated, and the two children were likely to have accidents on the road.
"You can go somewhere else." The owner of the house spilled water from his teacup, and he was now very nervous and very scared: "I just heard the older generation talk about that place, but I don't know the way." ”
He noticed that Chen Ge's gaze slowly changed and seemed to become more gloomy, and immediately added: "You can ask the old people in the village, they must know, I can take you to find them." ”
Hearing the owner of the house say this, Chen Ge nodded: "I'm sorry for you." ”
"No trouble, no trouble, as it should be." The owner of the house wiped the sweat from his forehead and went into the back room to look for a flashlight.
"Chen Ge, pay a little attention, don't scare others." The old Wei next to him had no way to take Chen Ge, in fact, he was a little stunned when he stood next to Chen Ge, especially thinking of the things that Chen Ge had done.
"I know what I know." Chen Ge said lightly, now he can still take care of these details, and finding the missing child is the most important thing.
"I've heard the elders of my family say that there used to be a group of people who fled from the mountains, and they seemed to be from the coffin village." The owner of the house came out with a flashlight: "Those people live in the west of the village, and we live in the east of the village, and we don't have any contact with each other. My grandmother told me when she was alive that those people are not clean. ”
The owner of the house was also honest, and he didn't hide anything from Chen Ge and them: "At that time, I thought, what age is it, everyone is equal, how can there be anything clean or unclean, I feel that the old man is old and confused." Later, after living for a long time, I realized that that group of people was indeed a little abnormal. ”
"How is it not normal?" Chen Ge and Lao Wei were very curious.
"They rarely leave their rooms, and they don't even take a step out of the door after dark, as if something outside might harm them." The owner of the house whispered, "Every house has a rope hanging from the window and a kitchen knife behind the door. I asked them why they did it, and they said it was to prevent thieves. ”
"Is that all?"
"And one of the strangest places." The owner's voice became lower: "Every once in a while, there will be one less person who escapes from the mountains, and every time someone goes missing, those who also escaped from the mountains are not only not sad, but also very happy, it feels like ......"
"Like what? You mean. Chen Ge urged.
"It's like as long as it's not you who dies." The house owner's words were a little cruel, which made Chen Ge and Lao Wei ponder.
"I'm just talking about my feelings, don't think about it!" The owner of the house hurriedly argued, and the three of them walked together to the middle of the village, and when they turned into a path, they saw a brick house.
"Here it is, that's it." The owner of the house was about to knock on the door, but when his hand fell on the door panel, he found that the wooden door was unlocked: "Uncle Zhu? ”
He entered the house, only took one step inside, and did not dare to move.
On the dining table facing the door is a black-and-white photo of an old man, the face in the photo is facing the door, and what is even more terrifying is that the eyes of the person in the photo are buckled.
"Don't panic." Chen Ge gently patted the farmer's shoulder, he entered the house alone without turning on the light, and picked up the black and white photo on the table: "The photo looks a little old, and the edges are still worn, he probably thought that this day would come." ”
Thinking of what the farmer had said before, Chen Ge felt that the old man in the photo might have disappeared.
"The people who escaped from the coffin village hung ropes from the windows and hidden kitchen knives behind the doors, obviously afraid that something special would come in." Chen Ge touched his chin: "Could it be a ghost who came out of the coffin village deep in the mountains?" And why were the eyes in this photo gouged out? It feels very similar to the modus operandi of the Strange Tales Association. ”
"Big brother, you put down the photo and talk again, I always feel that the people in the photo are looking at me." The farmer stood at the door, with no intention of coming in: "Why don't I go to a few other houses?" ”
"Okay, just go ask them."
The three of them rushed to the next house, but before they arrived, Chen Ge had a bad premonition in his heart.
He had pupils and could clearly see that the door of the house was open.
Pushing the door in, the owner of the house is also missing, and what is even more bizarre is that there is also a black and white photo on the table in the middle of the house, and the eyes of the photo are also gouged out.
"Why are they all gone?" The farmer led Chen Ge and Lao Wei to the place, and before the two outsiders could say anything, he himself became scared first.
"Go and see somebody else's house." After searching for several houses in a row, all the people who fled from the living coffin village were gone, and each one had a black and white photo on the table, and the whole village was like a ghost village.
"What the hell is going on!" The farmer's face was pale, and at this time he could only ask Chen Ge and Lao Wei for help.
Looking at his inquiring gaze, Chen Ge opened the zipper of his backpack and grabbed the skull crusher hammer: "Everyone is missing, why are you okay?" ”
Chen Ge said casually to the farmer, frightening this honest middle-aged man: "I really don't know the reason!" There are still a few people from Baijia Village at the entrance of the village, and they should be fine. ”
When I went to check the door, the farmer was right, and only those who fled were missing.
"Chen Ge, where do you think those people will go? Why did they leave a black and white photo? Lao Wei felt that things were out of control and were developing in an unknown direction.
"They may have returned to the village of living coffins." Chen Ge took out Fan Yu's third painting from his backpack, and there were two words written on it - go home.
"We can't wait, let's go into the mountain now!" He walked up to the farmer: "There should be someone in your village who knows the location of the coffin village, right?" There are several lives at stake in this matter, and I hope you will cooperate. ”
"Big brother, I really want to cooperate with you, the key is to know that the people in the village are either missing, or they are too old and are no longer there." The farmer took a few steps back and walked to Lao Wei's side before stopping.
"Too old?" Chen Ge suddenly thought of a suitable candidate, he called Lao Wei and ran towards the peach forest deep in the mountains: "Uncle Bai should know the location of the living coffin village!" ”
Turning over the mountain, Chen Ge found Uncle Bai in the cabin, and after explaining his intention, the old man pretended not to know at first.
But when he heard that two children might have been abducted to the living coffin village, he finally agreed and decided to take Chen Ge and Lao Wei into the mountain together.
