The moment I saw the body inside the coffin, all my memories of my father exploded.

I thought that after my father died, the unpleasant memories of more than ten years would go into the soil along with his burial.

But when my father's slightly corrupted face appeared in front of me again, I knew that this memory could never be erased!

His eyes were tightly closed, and I could only guess at the unbelievable things that were happening in front of me, and I would not get half of his answers.

How I wished that at that moment he could stand in front of me again, intact, and touch my head with a gentle, somewhat rough hand that only I remember as a child, and call out my name. Even if it was a reprimand that I was used to when I was locked into the little dark room!

"Xiao Su?"

The fat man saw me standing in front of the coffin with my father's body in a daze, motionless, and whispered to me in a hurried voice.

Seeing that I didn't agree, he thought I was evil, and held the fire fold to my eyes.

"The corpse is my father!"

My cold words made him stop his movements, and instead looked at me in surprise, and then at the head in the black box inside the coffin.

Ask me in a tone of unbelievable questioning:

"Brother, do you see clearly?"

I nodded.

"I wore my father's corpse clothes, and there were ghost drawings specially sewn on them according to our northern customs. Because he is "horizontally dead", and it is the most serious level of separation of head and body, this method of death cannot be cremated, otherwise he will not be able to find his head in the underworld! ”

After hearing my words, the fat man took a picture of the "ghost picture" on my father's corpse's clothes and the arranged head, and compared it with my face, and began to believe that I had not mistaken the corpse in the dim light.

In fact, after my father's death, I didn't believe in these superstitious customs in my hometown, and under the persuasion of my neighbors' elderly grandfathers, I still obeyed the rules. But I still don't believe in these customs, and I don't cremate the body out of respect for the father who gave birth to me and raised me.

"Xiao Su, what are you hiding from me?"

After a short silence, the fat man asked me in a questioning tone.

I can understand his reaction, in such a dungeon full of unbelievable places, some of the original unreasonable construction patterns have already made us a little anxious, and suddenly there is an extra corpse of my relatives.

If I were fat, I would have doubted it!

Faced with his unkind eyes, I replied in a calm tone: "If I say all this I don't know what's going on, do you believe it?" ”

The fat man was silent for a moment, as if thinking about a series of actions I had made after meeting him. Then he made up his mind and said to me, "I believe you, but this is too fucking bullshit!" Your father, who committed suicide two years ago, was buried with your own hands, and he will appear here at this moment! ”

The fat man's puzzlement at the moment is also what I don't understand now, the underground palace in front of me is not my impression at all, there is a rigorous chronicle in archaeology, and the things in the tomb are not the objects with objectivity as the professor said.

On the contrary, everything here, whether it is the way the house is built, the furnishings in the room, the living "flowers" on the other side, and the supernatural temperature changes, have broken my perception.

Judging from the fat man's reaction, although he was not as unnatural as I appeared, he was also at a loss after encountering the same strange things as me.

All the "culprits" who have caused us to fall into this kind of confusion are my second uncle, and I think everything that appears here should be known to the second uncle, and only he can answer our confusion.

"Your Aunt Ming must know what all this is all about."

After we were lost in thought again, the fat man was the first to speak to break the silence. Because he didn't know the existence of the second uncle, he could only blame all this on "Aunt Ming" who gave him clues.

"Fatty, I want to cremate my father's bones on the bluestone road of the underground palace in a while!"

I said to the fat man, I think this is the last thing I can do for my father.

"Well, it should be done, but before we can do that, we need to find a way to find the "ghost corpse"! ”

Fat man suggests.

I nodded in agreement.

We've reached the point where it's hard to ride a tiger, and we've explored most of this dungeon, leaving only the last few partition spaces, and the third floor of the hall with no stairs overhead. The "ghost corpse" that hooked us up on our nerves never appeared.

We are born with curiosity, and our interest in exploring the unknown has always inspired us to move forward. This kind of curiosity is also shared by me and the fat man.

In fact, even if we don't have curiosity, we will regret leaving the only place that we have not set foot in before we are about to walk through all the corners of the dungeon!

The coffin where my father's body was placed was the thirteenth of the eighteen partition spaces on the second floor of the main hall, and it was only five partition spaces from the place where the fat man found the "ghost corpse", and the distance was no more than ten meters!

Before the action, the fat man and I invariably extinguished the fire in our hands. In fact, this action is just to seek comfort in the heart, if that "ghost corpse" has thoughts, when we just entered the space on the second floor of the main hall, the fat man's first sound of not controlling the volume must have attracted its attention!

I took out a flashlight from my pocket and held it in my left hand, holding a dagger in my right hand, this offensive routine is the same as when I was in "Ghost Cub Ridge" and when dealing with a fat man in a hallucination.

The Fat Man retracted the handle of the Sapper Shovel with extreme caution to ensure that the length of the handle did not affect his attacking movements.

It's still him who opens the way in front, and I break in the back.

We crept closer than ever toward the partition in the southeast corner, skimming over four spaces for the red coffin, and only stopped before the last partition space.

The southeast corner is located closest to the "Everlasting Lantern" under the steps of the main hall, and the view from here is also the best place in the entire hall. Even without the faint light of the fire fold, I could see the fat man's movements clearly.

After the fat man stopped, I also stopped tacitly. It was related to the experience on the iron bar bridge that led to the entrance to the second floor, and I didn't want to experience the feeling of hitting the dough again.

By the candlelight of the curtain of the cow's backbone, I saw the fat man make a gesture of outflanking me.

I pointed, understandingly, to my right, meaning that I was outflanking from this side and he was from the other.

The fat man nodded, and used his fingers to make a three-two-one countdown in the air. After that, we rushed into the last partition as fast as we could, skipped the red lacquered coffin parked, and at the same time reached the location where there was a "ghost"!

But what happened was not what we expected, originally I wanted the picture to be that at the moment when the fat man rushed over unexpectedly, the "ghost corpse" somewhat unexpectedly parried the fat man's attack, and then I used a strong flashlight to blind it for a short time from the other side, and then subdued it with the fat man!

It doesn't matter if this "ghost corpse" is a kind of cunning intelligent creature that occupies the magpie's nest and burrows into the corpse, or whether it is really a "ghost" type of existence. Under the attack of the fat man's more than 200 pounds of meat and eggs, no matter what kind of "monster" it is at that moment, it will be stunned!

But the scene in front of me made me and the fat man a little unexpected, on the ground in the southeast corner, there was indeed the "ghost corpse" lurking.

After the fat man arrived a little faster than me, the ghost corpse on the ground didn't even react at all, so that the fat man had no way to vent because of his excessive accumulation, so he directly pounced into the air, and slammed into the partition of the last partition space, knocking down the partition in an instant! Then a chain reaction slammed the row of partitions into each other like dominoes.

As the partition poured over, two crisp familiar sounds rang out, the sound of a black box cracking.

And in the process of the fat man's fluttering into the air, his big fat feet stepped directly on the "ghost corpse" lying on the ground.

The fat man's fat and heavy feet, even the thick door of the hall, couldn't help his heavy kick.

However, the "ghost corpse" that he had stepped on was still unmoving, lying on the ground as before we rushed in, but it was moved to the window on the second floor of the main hall by the fat man's forward kicking.

The one that connected to the first floor of the main hall, the gap that poked down its "grimace" was also completely exposed in front of my eyes at this moment!

"Up! Su Mo! Fucking hell, dare to scare you Grandpa Zhang and me! Let you see how powerful Grandpa is! ”

The fat man, who knocked down the partition, got up from the ground with great speed, as if he had regained his strength in an instant, and shouted at me.

I reached out to stop him, and at that moment I clearly felt his strength!

"What are you still doing! Friend! ”

The fat man didn't understand what I meant.

In fact, when he kicked the "ghost corpse", I realized that the clothes of the "ghost corpse" were the same clothes as the corpse in the burial pit and the corpse in the "ice cellar" room, and there was a yellow cloth package with "Zhenlong Sha" written on it in the corner!

Where is this "ghost corpse", it is clearly a real corpse. It's just that because his face was full of blood, after poking down from the gap connecting the hall on the first floor, the fat man mistook it for a "ghost corpse"!

And the fat man's reaction also greatly affected me, making me also enter his subjective judgment!

The fat man who calmed down also found the clue, turned on the flashlight and shone the corpse in the corner.

After confirming that it was a real corpse, the fat man said to me in a strange tone: "I'm sorry brother, it's my brother who made a mistake in my judgment!" ”

There was embarrassment in this tone.

If I had seen the same situation as the fat man in this position on the first floor of the main hall, I don't think I would have reacted in the same way as him, because I didn't know about the existence of "ghosts" at all.

After a false alarm, the fat man behaved more positively, allowing me to see his cute side.

In the space we are in, except for the black boxes in the two partition spaces that were hit by the fat man, which automatically cracked, there are still three coffins that have not been opened.

The reason why we want to open all of them is that we both want to confirm whether there will be people we are familiar with in the coffins of the few remaining corpses that have not decomposed.

Just as the fat man clicked on the black box inside the last coffin, a huge sound like the friction between stones suddenly appeared!
