Chapter Twenty-Six: Heartless Bones
The darkness of the night enveloped the mountains and forests, and the howls of wild beasts were intermittent, sometimes far and sometimes near, adding to the terrifying atmosphere.
There are four rooms that have not collapsed, and one is a Buddhist hall. Director Long asked someone to lay on the floor and lay down on it very leisurely to rest. Three or five bodyguards surrounded it, so to speak, the protection was impenetrable.
Niu Qiao'er was timid, close to the periphery of the bodyguard, found some grass to spread out, and lay down to recuperate. Lou Xiaoguang and Li Qiqi guarded left and right, wanting to speak and endure it, to take advantage of Zhou Xiaoyi and others to investigate, and wanted to say something "heartfelt" to Niu Qiao'er, so as to prevent the woman from falling deeper and deeper.
One is the kitchen, the kitchenware is corroded by rust, the dishes and chopsticks are covered with thick ash, and the eye-catching thing is that there are several large bowls of unidentified food that is dry black and pinched into ashes.
"The family is living, and there is no sign of moving...... Zhou Xiaoyi seems to be a detective.
Lou Ming, Sea Dog, Han Tong and others ignored him, and they were all busy looking for clues. Only Su Niang, who followed suit, became the most loyal fan.
The other two were bedrooms, and the others almost collapsed. Judging from the clothes and hair, one was a man and a woman and two elderly people, who slept peacefully, but they were brutally killed. In the other room, there was a family of three, the man died at the door, and the other two were in bed. Needless to say, the man noticed that there was movement next door and got up to check. Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the door, he was murdered.
"The quilt cover was torn, and it was so strong. …… What's even more outrageous is that the dead bones and sternums are shattered in a large area,...... Uncle Lou, what kind of heart-digging beasts are there in this place? Zhou Xiaoyi asked.
Although Lou Mingjiang is a farmer and the boss is coarse, he has also been in the rivers and lakes and has seen a lot.
"I've never heard of it, I've never heard of it...... Oh, I haven't been here for over a decade, so I don't know what the years will hold. Lou Mingjiang satisfied Zhou Xiaoyi's addiction to being a detective.
"I'm afraid they've been dead for more than ten years......" Han Tong frowned.
"It's all speculation, and it needs special instruments to test it accurately...... Don't move everything here at will, wait for this matter, report to the official for investigation. Geng Hao lifted his glasses and said matter-of-factly.
A group of wicked people dressed in the skin of national security...... Zhou Xiaoyi wanted to laugh, but he endured it, and asked seriously: "Isn't it possible to use the Internet or mobile phone?" …… Oh, if I ask more, there must be no signal. ”
Geng Hao nodded: "This poor and remote country is indeed very backward. ”
While talking, Su Niang's demure cheeks suddenly moved, and her figure burst out of the broken gap in the wall like a wolf.
Zhou Xiaoyi also followed keenly.
It scared Han Tong, this week Xiao Yi is becoming more and more incomprehensible, I don't usually see him practicing hard, but he has unusual agility.
The back of the house was dark, cooing, cooing, and unknown cries came and went. Zhou Xiaoyi shone a very deep well in front of him with a flashlight, and he could vaguely see the rippling well water, nothing special.
"Husband, I think there's something down there, something that makes me ......uneasy," Su Niang said worriedly.
Zhou Xiaoyi hugged Su Niang's trembling waist and comforted: "We are not from the National Security Bureau, so we don't need to worry about it...... Let's go, go back and rest, tomorrow may be quite busy. ”
Su Niang is still anxious: "I don't care if other people live or die, I'm just afraid of this...... endangers you. ”
Zhou Xiaoyi likes to hear such straightforward words very much, only Zhou Xiaoyi is worthy of care in the world, it is too touching.
"It's okay, there are so many people, it's impossible for any disaster to befall me, hey, my stupid wife, I'm a lucky star, not so unlucky." Zhou Xiaoyi was full of excitement and relief.
Walking back to the Buddhist hall, the two hugged each other and sat down in the windiest place at the entrance of the Buddhist hall, as if they didn't feel cold.
"It's cold in the second half of the night!" Lou Maker persuaded.
Zhou Xiaoyi replied casually, not in the way. This is the truth, the two of them have a cold physique, which is stronger than the average person's ability to bear.
Niu Qiao'er stood up and wanted to say something caring, but when she saw Zhou Xiaoyi and his wife tightening, her face instantly became unnatural.
"Didn't I say it, don't have a wife......" Lou Xiaoguang felt that the previous hard persuasion had no effect.
"This man, poor jingle sounds, even a kennel has been lifted. It's ugly, not to mention, and it's very shameless, the whole village, who doesn't spit on him,...... Qiao'er, you have a long heart. Li Qiqi played the role of a big brother and stepped on Zhou Xiaoyi fiercely.
"Are you two sick, mother-in-law, mother-in-law, people...... Just want to sleep well. Niu Qiao'er let the tears swirl in her eyes, leaned over and fell asleep.
Zhou Xiaoyi listened to the conversation between the three of them in his ears and didn't take it seriously.
"Isn't it...... Niu Qiaoer is interesting to you? Su Niang has always seemed to have no scheming, and at this moment she also heard a little famous.
"Don't overthink it,...... I can't care what others think, anyway, I only treat her as a sister......" Zhou Xiaoyi said.
"Oh!" Su Niang pursed her lips and looked pensive.
……
In the middle of the night, the quiet needle drop could be heard, but there was an inexplicable panic in the air, and it was an intermittent gnawing sound.
It's like some unknown, invisible demon gnawing at bones.
Zhou Xiaoyi listened very clearly, thinking back to his father's situation at the beginning, he was suffering every day and night, and now this voice is definitely coming from Director Long, a little slight, but in Zhou Xiaoyi's heart, it is particularly loud.
He couldn't help but shudder......
