Chapter 2: Terror on a Moonlit Night

After Gao Xuan took the bags that Bai Langjie had prepared for him, he ran out of the house all the way, and climbed to the opposite hill in one breath before resting. He kicked a few times at a small mound of dirt, and the kick was like a dusty one. Then he turned around, knelt down on his knees in the direction of his house, bowed to the ground three times, and then turned and sat on the ground, like a frosted eggplant, shrunken and unwielded.

After a long time, he was woken up by the sound of sirens whistling down the mountain, and he realized that he had to go. He was in a hurry to leave, not because he was worried that the police would surround the mountain and search the mountain. The villagers can all testify that he is indeed not a murderer in the true sense of the word, and the police will not round him up, and the reason why he can no longer stay for too long is actually because the mountain road is rugged and long, and if he continues to spend like this, I don't know how long it will take to get out of this mountain. And if you're not careful, you risk getting lost. If you get lost, the consequences are worrying.

After walking for a few hours, it was getting darker and darker. Later, it started drizzling again, and Gao Xuan had to walk and hide, which delayed a lot of time. He knew that at this pace, he would not be able to walk out of this mountain for two or maybe three days. So, he simply found a place to shelter from the wind and rain and settled down first. He put down his travel bag, picked up some dead branches that were not soaked, took out a lighter and a few pieces of waste paper, and made a fire. He took out a dry garment from his travel bag and changed it, took off the wet clothes on his body, twisted them, and then carried them with a twig, and hung them by the fire to roast. When he was done, he took out the dry food that Lang Jie had prepared for him, sat on the ground, and ate it. When he had eaten his fill, he stretched his waist and walked to a large rock, touched it with his hand, and found that there was no rain on it, and then took out of his bag some old newspapers that had been used to wrap things, and spread them sparsely on the stone slabs, and rolled on them, and lay down on them. Probably because of the extreme exhaustion of his mind and body, Gao Xuan snored soon after he fell asleep.

When I woke up, the wind and rain stopped, and a bright moon hung in the sky. Mosquitoes and insects are chirping everywhere, the shadows of the trees are heavy, and the secluded mountains are slightly chilly. Gao Xuan did not roll over and stand up, but still lay on the stone slab, pillowing his arm under his head, staring at the sky, silently thinking about the strange things that happened today. Why, why does a big living person dissolve out of thin air in front of everyone's eyes after falling to the ground, and leaving no trace? If it weren't for his own experience, he wouldn't have believed that this was a true fact. This turmoil, I don't know how many times I have been reincarnated in Gao Xuan's mind, and I keep reasoning, and I want to be chaotic. People are always like this, the more things they can't think of, the more they will force themselves to think, the more they think about it, and the more clueless they become. A mess in Gao Xuan's mind tormented him and made him collapse.

Suddenly, there was a flash of fire in the distance, and the sky was clear. Then there was a boom, and the mountain shook. It seemed that a heavy ** exploded in front of him, and Gao Xuan was shocked to fly up from the stone slab. He jumped forward several times to find out, but when he looked left and right, he saw a dead silence. The bright light stopped, and the loud noise disappeared. Gao Xuan shouted that it was impossible, there was such a big movement just now, and it was impossible to calm down without a trace in an instant. He didn't have time to think about it, turned back, took off the clothes hanging by the fire to bake, extinguished the bonfire, packed his bags, estimated the direction, and cautiously touched the place where the explosion had just occurred. Life seems to be playing tricks on him, one after another strange things happen in front of his eyes, and he vows not to be reconciled if he doesn't understand something.

The sky and moonlight were very bright, otherwise, Gao Xuan would not be able to walk an inch on the mountain path full of weeds. The path of the netherworld, even a person like Gao Xuan, who was born and raised in the mountains, was a little frightened in his heart at this time. He trembled and groped over a cliff, and found a neat row of houses in front of him, all of which were brightly lit. Someone's home! Gao Xuan thought. But I have been familiar with this ten or eight miles radius since I was a child, and now I can't tell what this place is. Looking at the surrounding area of this row of houses, except for the two cliffs where there is a path, the rest are cliffs, and there is no road to go, and this row of houses seems to be placed in a huge sinkhole. It just so happened that Gao Xuan was on a narrow path leading to the pit at this time. He used the narrow path to skirt the cliff and cautiously groped for the row of houses. In such a mysterious place, there are such dazzling lights at such a late hour, Gao Xuan expected that there must be a story in it, and it may be a very peculiar story.

Curiosity drove Gao Xuan to forget everything he had before, and he crept to the row of houses, leaning against the nearest house to him, and standing sideways in front of the window. Peeking into the room with the strong light inside, I saw two men standing inside, one of them was three thick and five big, with horizontal eyebrows and vertical eyes, and his arms intersected, looking like a fierce god. When Gao Xuan saw him at first sight, he couldn't help but secretly shudder. The other is slender and weak, with a bespectacled face, smooth and shiny hair, and a single body that looks like a bookkeeper. The house is huge, two *** in the middle of the house. To their left is a table with four chairs around it. On the table was a long box with a lid on, and I don't know what it contained. Next to the table was a machine about one meter wide, two meters long, and about one and a half meters high, and the machine had a compartment with the lid closed. There is a funnel-like device on top of the cabin. The perimeter of the machine is covered with various wires, and at one end of the wire is a whole row of switches.

Look at the two of them to the right is a bed, and there is a person lying on the bed. Although the man was covered with a white sheet, it was not difficult to tell that it was a woman lying there.

"It's almost time, why hasn't Master come yet." The big man said in a rough voice.

"Uh, what are you in a hurry, Master will come over after receiving her original body in the gathering room." The skinny man spoke a little sissy.

Gao Xuan pondered: These two people seem to be living treasures, and it may be a little interesting to tease them if there is nothing to do in real life. Just as he was thinking, the door opened, and in came an old man dressed in a white hexagram, who wore a thin glove similar to that worn by surgeons. As soon as he entered, he raised his right hand and shouted, "Disciples."

"Ugh!" The two people in the room responded in unison.

"Are you ready?"

"It's ready."

"Ready, let's get started."

Gao Xuan, who was hiding in the shadows, listened to the music: "It turns out that their master is also like this!" Are you singing or rehearsing? Well, let's see which one you sing. ”

"Bring it!" The old one snorted.

"Gotcha!" The thin man replied. He quickly opened the long box on the table, took out a scalpel from it, and offered it to the old man with both hands.

The old man took the scalpel, raised it in his hand, and said something in his mouth:

"The rain stopped, the wind stopped, and the moon in the sky cleared

The fate is there, the love continues, and everything that should be there has finally arrived

The field is gathered, God has taken it, and the original body is ready to be available

The knife was raised, the blood was bled, and the soul outside the window was guarded"

After reading it, the old man seemed to glance at Gao Xuan intentionally or unintentionally, which made Gao Xuan's heart tense. Turning his head and calling to his two disciples as if nothing had happened: "Disciples." "No", "Hands-on", "Chirp"

As he spoke, the rough man and the thin man walked to the opposite side of the bed, and the two of them worked together to remove the sheet covering the woman, exposing the woman. It turned out that the woman was tied to the bed with her hands and feet, and a towel was stuffed in her mouth. Gao Xuan looked at the woman carefully, and this scare really almost flew out of the sky: it was none other than the girl who was pulled to the ground by Gao Xuan during the day and disappeared without a trace in an instant! The scene in front of him, where did Gao Xuan believe it, he pinched his face vigorously, it hurt, it was not a dream! He rubbed his eyes again, stared at them wide, yes, not at all, it was her! It's strange, confused, Gao Xuan's simple value is going crazy!

Gao Xuan outside the window was making a fool, and the movements of the three people in the room continued. The old man took the scalpel, walked to the girl's bedside, touched the artery in the girl's hand, and cut it with the knife......

"Ahh Gao Xuan howled miserably, and before he could scream, he fell to the ground and fainted.

I don't know how long it took, Gao Xuan, who woke up, found that he had been firmly tied to a chair and couldn't move at all. But there was a table in front of him, and there were four chairs around the table and his own strapped, and next to the chair was the machine, and the lid of the machine was still closed...... It's all so familiar! He hurriedly looked at the bed, and the girl on the bed was gone, and there was a complete human skeleton! There are blood stains under the bed!

Gao Xuan was furious, and his anger was on the verge of exploding. He struggled and roared loudly: "Beast! Demon! Murderer! Until he was so silent that he almost collapsed.

Suddenly, the lights went out, and it was already dawn. Gao Xuan no longer felt anything in front of him. His soul was lost, and his body remained. Only the mouth still had the breath to repeat the mechanical chanting: "Animal! Demon! Murderer! ”

The door opened, and in came the three "murderous demons", each carrying a bottle of wine in one hand and a fragrant piece of meat in the other. "Are you tired of scolding," it was the rough man who spoke, he said as he stuffed the piece of meat in his hand into Gao Xuan's mouth, and said, "If you are tired of scolding, you will come to warm your belly with human flesh, and then continue to scold when you have enough strength." Yo, the young girl's meat is just more tender. ”

"He's not scolding, he's singing. Nice to hear, nice to hear! The thin man said with a sissy.

Gao Xuan saw the meat, reflexively looked at the bed, the skeleton at a glance, he was already hungry, he couldn't stop vomiting in the river and the sea, there was nothing in his stomach, and the vomit was full of bitter water in the gall.

"It's not okay to vomit like this, I'm afraid it won't be clean. You help him. The old man pointed to the rough man and said.

But seeing that the rough man put down the wine and meat in his hand, he took out a few pieces of Western medicine from his pocket, and no matter how Gao Xuan struggled, he pinched Gao Xuan's nose with one hand and held the medicine with the other. forced Gao Xuan's mouth to open, and the rough man's hand holding the medicine followed, and the pill fell into Gao Xuan's mouth. and then quickly supported Gao Xuan's chin, so that Gao Xuan could not open his mouth and spit out. Listening to the "grunt", the pill passively slid into Gao Xuan's stomach.

Seeing this, the three of them laughed.

After a while, the old man pointed to Gao Xuan and said to his two apprentices: "Fatten him up, raise him white, and then make a clean eye." This is a plate of Tang monk meat, which should be steamed, steamed and steamed, and used to serve as wine. Only when we eat well can we have enough energy to make trouble in the Heavenly Palace! After that, he left Gao Xuan, who had been frowning and angry, and was helpless, and took his two precious apprentices to lock the door and leave.

Gao Xuan expected at this time that what was waiting for him would be an extremely cruel winter.
