Chapter 73: The Coffin Worm

I watched the fleeing people slap the black worms on their faces in a panic, and quickly shouted, "Don't shoot."

But my words were like wind in their ears, and the bitten people in the firelight slapped the worms on their bodies to death, and the foul-smelling juice sprayed out, and the skin on their faces corroded in an instant, and it only took minutes for them to begin to fester. In pain, they lay on the ground and cried and cried.

I looked at the flesh on someone's face and began to rot, and I muttered to myself, this can't be a fucking coffin worm?

"Coffin worm" is a kind of semi-parasite, there is a sac of fluid in the stomach, the juice in it is strongly corrosive, it will concentrate in a place where there is light at night, and it will secrete strong acid liquid when walking, and the human body will be infected with strong acid liquid by its walking, and there will be a large red bulge, and then the abscess will rot.

If this insect crawls on your body, don't shoot it with your hands, otherwise it will be corroded by the strong acid in its body. These people don't know, so they shoot, not only can't kill these bugs, but it will backfire.

The fish bowed down on the ground, and I said to Gui, "Burn the coffin and the worms." ”

Ah Gui was not too afraid, took the wine bottle from the carriage, took a big sip, and then smashed the wine bottle towards the coffin, he ran over, I lit a cigarette, took a puff, threw the match into the air, the small fire was blown and swayed in the wind, and it was about to be extinguished, and Ah Gui spewed out the wine in his mouth with a "poof". I saw that the flames were soaring into the sky in an instant, and the alcohol rushed towards the swarm with the firelight. Birds are talking about garbage.

The dense swarm of insects was burned up all of a sudden, making a crackling sound in the air, and the coffins that kept coming out of the "coffin worms" also burned, and the Nanmu of Kunlun Mountain was waterproof, so even if it was soaked in the water, I don't know how many days. But after adding alcohol, it was ignited by a little fire.

I looked at the burned coffin, breathed a sigh of relief, quickly pulled the fish's head up, and said, "Hurry up and send people to the hospital, otherwise it will be trouble." ”

The fish head panicked inexplicably, he said that it was the river god manifestation, the river god manifestation, I see that the fish head was frightened by the "river god", and it is estimated that it is difficult for him to do anything at this time.

I picked up a bug from the ground, its wings burned, but its body still wriggling. Life is really tenacious, this insect has a black head and a yellow tail. It is pointy, very small, less than an inch, but as soon as I picked it up, I felt that my fingers hurt, and I subconsciously threw away the bug, looking at the thumb and index finger, which was already slightly red, which shows how corrosive this bug is.

Later, I saw groups of big caps coming down, and Ah Gui and I slipped away to avoid any trouble.

This year's winter hunt was forced to be canceled, and the relevant departments quickly arrived after receiving a request for help, or rather, they had already taken precautions, and when something strange happened, they intervened, confiscated the coffin, and quickly treated the wounded, but there were no large number of fatalities.

I have to say that some officials still do some good things sometimes.

Three days have passed since the incident, and the rumors of the nine coffins pulled up by the fishing and hunting have been spread in Yuhuang Village, and they all say that the river god is angry, and the people above have persuaded the masses from door to door in order not to promote feudal superstition, and the fish head is the most credible person, especially as the focus, just in the past three days, officials at all levels do not know how many times they have come, and they must fish the head not to promote feudal superstition.

The fish said yes, but every day behind his back, he asked his daughter "Jiugu" to ask the god to bless him and extinguish the anger of the river god.

Maybe it was really the river god who was angry, those coffin insects that flew out were particularly ferocious, and they were bitten by the insects, and the consequences were also very serious, at first they thought they were just bitten, and they didn't care.

As a result, the parts crawled by the insects began to rot after a day or so, and pus flowed everywhere, basically concentrated on the face or hands, because only these two parts were exposed, and the places where the insects crawled were like blisters scalded by boiling water, the outside was a layer of skin, and the inside was thick, and when it was punctured, it left a long mark on the face, and then the rotten parts expanded the more.

I know that this kind of insect is called a coffin bug, this kind of bug is very evil, it lives in the mountains, and in the bunker, and sometimes in the clear pond, but I don't know who actually put this kind of bug in the coffin, it seems that it is used to guard the tomb.

In the past few days, there have been a lot of people in the fishing house, all of whom are those who have been bitten, and they are all here to ask Jiugu to treat the disease, I naturally don't believe that Jiugu has any ability to cure this disease, but I really fucking think it's strange, that Jiugu seems to really have mana, crushed the shell of an old turtle, and then mixed some herbs, followed the water to wipe it on people's bodies, and really fucking made people's illnesses cured.

Therefore, I feel more and more that this Jiugu is not ordinary, and the deep and understanding things in her body are not something that a sixteen-year-old girl can pretend.

I think she's a bit of a doorman.

After fishing and hunting that day, the head of the fisherman and the owner went to the Ula River every day to burn incense, secretly burning, one is to worship the river god, the other is to worship the two people who were drowned and eaten, for how the two people died, I also feel strange, but this is one acre and three points of land, I still don't meddle with things, I'm afraid of things now.

Agui used a dagger to pick off the red spots on his face, he was bitten that night, and he didn't get better for three days, and he grinned every day because of the pain, so in a fit of anger, he took the dagger and picked the meat, this practice is really asking for it, why bother

I asked him to beg the little goddess, and it would be nice for them to give him some herbs, but Agui couldn't wipe his face, saying that he was too embarrassed to kneel on a little girl, and he couldn't get down those legs, so it hurt.

Zhao Biao climbed up to the attic and said to me, "Brother Hu, someone is here, and he said that he is a professor." ”

I put down the pen and closed the notebook, I have already recorded what happened a few days ago, these days because of the accident, the fishing and hunting have been canceled, the net has suffered huge losses, and because it is winter, the snow began to fall after that night, and the entire Ula River area has been covered with snow, so let alone go out.

But I want to know the movements of the nine coffins, so I take a small bill to Zhao Biao every day, let him go out to buy wine, and inquire about the nine coffins by the way, the nine coffins were naturally pulled away by the officials, where did they go, I don't know, but I want to know what is inside, there must be dead people, I just want to know why these nine coffins appear in the Ula River, why the main coffin is empty, I suspect that it is a clothed mound, but even if it is a clothed mound, there should be a well-dressed mound, Nor should it be empty.

The reason why I am sure that the first coffin is the main coffin is because of the specifications, the other coffins are not carved with dragons and phoenixes, just ordinary red coffins, and the first coffin that is pulled up, the left dragon and the right phoenix, are extremely high specifications, so I guess it must be the main coffin, but I am more interested in the text inside.

I listened to Biaozi's words, so I turned over and asked, "What professor is the professor?"

Zhao Biao put the wine on the table and said rarely: "Third Brother Hu, I know what kind of egg professor, I can't even write my name, but I heard that the coffin that was pulled up was opened last night, and many people were bitten, and I couldn't do it, so I quickly invited a professor surnamed Jin in Dalian, I heard that we still have yellow flags."

As soon as I heard this, I glanced at Agui, and Agui also looked at me, and the two of us laughed, guessing, it is estimated that the professor who came was Professor Jin who we had been waiting for a long time, and I said, "Biaozi, give you a big bill, buy me something as a gift."

Zhao Biao didn't take the money and said to me: "We have this pimple, the best gift at this time is fish, it's a pity, fishing and hunting didn't catch a good fish, but my father fished up a few big heads from the water, my mother pickled it, you take it, I told my mother to go." After speaking, Zhao Biao pedaled downstairs.

Zhao Da'an's mother-in-law gave me a rope to string a few big heads of green, all of them were frozen into ice lumps, the best soup for big heads, I want to give Zhao Da'an's mother-in-law money, but she didn't want to live or die, he said, if it wasn't for me and Agui that night, maybe how many people would have to suffer, he said that I am the eyes of the shaman, I know the suffering of these believers, and I specially sent me to save them.

I have nothing to do about it, I can only laugh, and the fish head because this fishing hunt to the net did not catch a fish, the spirit is a little sluggish, drinking every day, people are not in the mood to drink when they are most likely to get drunk, anyway, he is drunk all day, I don't know when I can cheer up.

Zhao Biao carried a gun and walked in the snow, two big wolf dogs in front of him were running, the snow was very deep, I stepped down, directly to the knees, it was difficult to walk, but the two dogs ran fast.

On the way, I chatted with Biaozi, he said that the coffin was pulled to the village committee, and he scolded uncleanly, he said that those officials wanted to send some money to the dead, so they opened the coffin, and the result was still the same, a large number of insects flew out, and the people were bitten, and one died, I heard that they were burned alive, and then the officials of the village committee couldn't hold it down and had to find someone from the cultural relics department to receive it, which was a pick.

The village committee is not far away, usually about ten minutes away, but because of the heavy snow, we walked for half an hour to arrive, the village committee is very simple, a few tiled houses and a yard, hang a sign, the conditions are very difficult, we Longkou Village is also this virtue.

We stood at the door, Zhao Biao put the dog's chain on, there are people here, if these two wolf dogs are ruthless, they are not much weaker than the black blind man, and it is not good to bite people.

I carried the fish and walked in, but before I could enter the door, I stopped a man dressed as a student and said, "Idlers are not allowed to enter the archaeological site." ”

I saw him standing at the door, thinly dressed, his nose was frozen, and I said, "You are cold, it's cold and evil this day, and it's snowing heavily, I have a coat here, you quickly put it on, and you know it's a student when you see it, don't freeze it." With that, I quickly took off my coat and put it on the student.

This person immediately pushed me, to push off my coat, is the kind of very unappreciative attitude, but I looked at him with a reluctant attitude in his eyes, of course, he stood outside for a long time, cold and runny, at this time I gave him a little warmth, of course he was reluctant, I said: "Put on, put on, go back to change shifts, you just give it back to me." ”

I looked at this student's brand called Gu Changqing, the name is a good name, but there is no good life, this person's face is very strange, he is crying and mourning, and he is a fucking nose, the so-called poverty is difficult, just because of the sad face; The meaning of this sentence is that the face is often crying, not crying like crying, crying and not crying, the Lord will be poor and difficult, not drunk and like drunk, not awake and like awake, and the glory and happiness will eventually rest, this is also said.

To put it mildly, it's a short-lived ghost.
