Chapter Seventy-Three: The Smell of Corpses
Since then, Tang Muzhou has never heard his grandmother mention it.
He guessed that Tang Wuzhou should have said something to his grandmother, and this matter should be quite serious. Because, Tang Muzhou occasionally mentions Tang Yuanshan's matter, and grandma's face will change when she hears it:
"Don't remember that, Wooden Boat, those ...... It's all nonsense, it's all ...... There is no such person as Tang Yuanshan......"
Tang Muzhou saw that although grandma's words were so, her expression was very unnatural.
So Tang Muzhou didn't believe it very much.
He felt that there must be something strange in this.
Grandma never spit out a word again, and after a long time, Tang Muzhou gradually forgot about it.
Now, Tang Muzhou actually found Tang Yuanshan's tablet in the Tang family's ancestral house, and he himself felt very strange. The Tang family buried his bones in a random place, but why did they enshrine his tablet in the ancestral shrine.
Tang Muzhou really felt very strange.
The big black dog was still barking under him, and Tang Muzhou grabbed Tang Yuanshan's tablet.
He looked down and asked the big black dog, "What the hell do you want to say?" ”
The black dog bit Tang Muzhou's trouser leg with his teeth, it seemed to pull him away, Tang Muzhou let out a sigh and put Tang Yuanshan's tablet back.
At this moment, the big black dog suddenly let go.
It jumped up, and the whole thing fell on Tang Muzhou's body. The focus of the big black dog is nearly a hundred pounds, it stares wide-eyed, looks at Tang Muzhou, and its tongue sticks out very long.
Tang Muzhou was almost overwhelmed by it.
He stared at the black dog, not understanding what it was going to do.
The black dog barked at Tang Muzhou a few times, and then turned his head and yelled a few more times at the place where Tang Yuanshan's tablet was placed.
Tang Muzhou immediately understood.
He pointed to Tang Yuanshan's tablet and asked the big black dog: "You, do you want me to take this away?" ”
Seeing that he finally understood what he meant, the big black dog jumped down from under Tang Muzhou.
Tang Muzhou once again picked up Tang Yuanshan's tablet.
When the black dog saw it, he turned around, said twice at his son Tang Muzhou again, and walked towards the outside of the hall.
And at this moment, Tang Muzhou saw this and hurriedly followed.
But before he could walk out of the hall, he heard someone shouting from behind him: "Stop! ”
These two words are sonorous and powerful, and they cannot be ignored.
Tang Muzhou listened to it and chuckled in his heart.
He subconsciously wanted to rush out with the big dog, but before he could take two steps, he felt that his shoulder was grabbed all of a sudden.
The arm strength of that hand was so strong that when it grabbed his shoulder, it was like a pair of pliers.
The moment Tang Muzhou turned around, he was stunned.
I saw that behind him, there was a group of people dressed in plain clothes, led by a woman in her fifties, her face was pale, and her lips were covered with a layer of wax.
Those behind the women, both men and women.
Their looks, eyes, and makeup were just like hers, pale and faintly weird.
Those people looked at Tang Muzhou fixedly, their eyes were very stupid.
Tang Muzhou shook it hard, but he couldn't shake off the woman's arm, and the big black dog that turned around had already left the ancestral hall, Tang Muzhou yelled a few times, and the black dog didn't respond as if he hadn't heard it.
And on this side, the woman who grabbed Tang Muzhou's shoulder suddenly smiled weirdly at him:
"Descendants of the Tang family, are you back?"
Tang Muzhou snorted, not knowing what to say.
The woman got closer, and Tang Muzhou tasted an abnormal smell from her open and closed mouth, that smell was very special, and it was rarely touched.
It was a smell of corpses.
Within two hours of death, corpse spots are formed on the body.
This is the smell of corpses emitted by the growth of fungi and bacteria on the body.
Suddenly, he smelled this taste from the woman's mouth, and three words suddenly appeared in Tang Muzhou's mind: - "living dead".
He struggled to break free of his body from the woman's grasp.
I don't know why, the woman in front of me, who looks weak, actually has so much strength.
I only heard the woman continue: "The descendants of the Tang family, it's good to come back, quickly put incense on the ancestors, say hello, and then the ancestors sit down and have a meal......"
The woman's voice, though it is thin and soft.
But when Tang Muzhou heard this, his heart seemed to be filled with something.
He tried to break free from the woman again and again, but he couldn't do anything about it again and again.
At this moment, the Tang family behind the woman gradually surrounded them. They had the same expression on their faces, and they surrounded Tang Muzhou in the middle.
Tang Muzhou's body shrunk, and those people got closer and closer.
The expressions on their faces were the same as those of women, smiling weirdly, and their chapped faces were like a layer of white paper.
At this moment, Tang Muzhou was stunned.
He was surrounded by everyone, huddled in the middle, and couldn't get out at all.
At the same time, the hand on his shoulder became harder and harder.
And Tang Muzhou, his hands, still subconsciously tightly protected the tablet of Tang Yuanshan in his arms. He didn't know why he did this in this situation, but in the dark, Tang Muzhou felt that this thing was closely related to his next fate.
There are more and more people around.
Tang Muzhou continued to yell at the black dog, but the thing still didn't come back.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise around.
It was the sound of a landslide.
The people around were stunned, Tang Muzhou also hurriedly looked around, only to see that the surrounding lanterns began to sway, and the red light inside shone on everyone's faces, and people were frightened, and at the same time looked at the ancestral hall.
I saw that on the ancestral hall, all the tablets fell.
The lady who grabbed Tang Muzhou's shoulders suddenly had a sharp cry in her mouth.
The voice was hoarse, and Tang Muzhou's body trembled when he heard it.
Then, the woman's hand, which was originally holding Tang Muzhou, suddenly let go.
As if she had gone mad, she threw herself at the altar.
The people around him immediately followed.
When Tang Muzhou saw the woman, when he ran forward, he didn't take a steady step, and he fell to the ground so violently.
But she didn't stop going, but crawled forward, creeping forward.
Faced with the woman's sudden reaction, Tang Muzhou couldn't figure out what state she was in at this time, she looked at the Lingtai again, and saw that all the tablets had fallen to the ground, and some of them had fallen to pieces.
The woman screamed, and there was some crying inside.
Just when Tang Muzhou was stunned, at this moment, he felt that his trouser legs were bitten by something again.
When I looked down, it was a big black dog......
