Chapter 027: Bloodletting
Sun Ji only felt that his heart was beating wildly, his legs were weak, his brain was blank, and his whole body trembled involuntarily.
Zheng Xiaocheng actually killed someone! Faced with a woman, he did not hesitate to plunge the knife into her heart, without even the slightest hesitation before making a move.
With a "poof", Sun Ji sat on the ground, his eyes showing infinite fear, as if the knife that was still dripping blood would pierce his body in the next second.
"As long as you cooperate with me honestly, I promise to take you out when the deed is done, and I will never let you see me again. But if you have a ghost in your heart and want to play any tricks, don't blame me for being ruthless! Zheng Xiaocheng said slowly.
It took five minutes for Sun Ji to recover from the shock, but his legs were still trembling, and he tried to stand up several times, but he couldn't. The guide was so frightened that he peed his pants and curled up on the ground shaking like chaff.
Zheng Xiaocheng, who killed someone, wiped the blood stains on the knife with Liu Wenxia's clothes, and then got up and pointed a dagger at Sun Ji and the guide: "Go!" Dig a pit next to it and bury the body, you don't want her smell of blood to attract some beasts, do you? ”
In the face of the vicious murderer, everyone was frightened, and there was no confidence and courage to attack him in groups. Although Sun Ji's legs trembled with fear, he still honestly got up with the guide and dug up the soil with a shovel in a slightly flat place.
The cooperation of people's hands and feet decreased significantly when they were afraid, and it took more than an hour to dig a pit, Zheng Xiaocheng was already full of impatience, and urged a little impatiently: "Hurry up and bury the corpse, if you delay the time, you will really attract the beast, and no one will be able to survive at that time." ”
When carrying Liu Wenxia's body into the pit, the guide finally couldn't bear the huge psychological pressure and cried. A man is crying like a child, he is not crying for Liu Wenxia, but sighing that his life is so unlucky, how good it is to stay at home, why did he come out to earn this money? I got into trouble with the devil for no reason.
Sun Ji also felt a little sad when the guide cried, and he bowed to Liu Wenxia's corpse a few times in front of the pit, chanting words in his mouth, and then scattered the soil.
Zheng Xiaocheng had been watching coldly from the sidelines, and Gao Dong and Liu Chengtao, who had come to their senses, also came over to help bury Liu Wenxia's body.
The group set off again, the guide led the way in front, Zheng Xiaocheng followed at the end, in order to prevent others from making any small moves, this time he was more careful.
After walking a short distance, they came to this mysterious pit, and everyone was stunned by the scene in front of them, but Zheng Xiaocheng was not surprised at all. Tie the ropes, and he coerced the people to go down to the pit in turn. However, as soon as he reached the bottom of the pit, Zheng Xiaocheng's expression became much more nervous, and he instructed everyone to do what he said, otherwise it would be easy to cause death-defying trouble, as for what the deadly threat was, he didn't say.
After all the way forward, they arrived at the king of the big tree cuckoo, just when a few people were stunned by such a huge strange tree, Zheng Xiaocheng suddenly got a black hand from behind everyone, he slammed Gao Dong's head with a sapper shovel, Gao Dong fell defenselessly, and then hit Liu Chengtao.
It happened too quickly, and Liu Chengtao was knocked to the ground before he could come back to his senses. At this time, Sun Ji and the guide found out that Zheng Xiaocheng began to poison everyone, and the guide was in a hurry, and he didn't know where to give birth to a desire to survive, so he ran away with a howl, and Sun Ji was so frightened that his legs collapsed to the ground.
Zheng Xiaocheng did not chase the guide, but walked into Sun Ji with a sneer. Although Sun Ji had the courage to explore, when he faced the murderer, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to run away like a guide, and he couldn't run with weak feet. He could only sit on the ground and beg hysterically for mercy.
It may be that seeing Sun Ji such a cowardly appearance made Zheng Xiaocheng lower his killing intent towards him, he hesitated for a moment and tied Sun Ji up with a rope instead.
After finishing the matter, Zheng Xiaocheng hung a rope on the branch, then lit a camping lamp and hung it on the rope, and then went to observe the incomparably huge tree cuckoo.
Sun Ji didn't know what he was looking at, but soon Zheng Xiaocheng left the tree, he dragged Gao Dong, who had fainted to the ground, to the tree, looked at Sun Ji who was frightened and dazed, and said: "It's going to be busy for a long time, and I'm a little bored to be left alone, so it's okay to keep you and chat with me." After speaking, he smiled at Sun Ji.
This smile made Sun Ji feel terrified, and Zheng Xiaocheng in his eyes now was simply a complete madman and a psychopath. It turned out that he didn't do anything to himself not because he felt sorry for himself, but to leave a companion to talk and relieve his boredom.
Zheng Xiaocheng took out some things from his bag and put them under the tree, but in the dark, Sun Ji couldn't see what it was, and then he took out a bowl-shaped thing and put it next to Gao Dong's body.
Seeing Zheng Xiaocheng busy taking care of himself, Sun Ji suddenly had a bad feeling, I am afraid that this guy will do even more terrifying things next.
Zheng Xiaocheng did not disappoint Sun Ji, as if the preparations were finished, Zheng Xiaocheng walked in front of Gao Dong, straddled Gao Dong's body with his feet apart, and easily pulled out the dagger from his waist.
Sun Ji was frightened, and asked him in a trembling voice: "You, what are you doing here?" He didn't, didn't offend you, do you want to kill even innocent people? ”
Zheng Xiaocheng bent down and grabbed Gao Dong's hair, and raised Gao Dong's head with a force. At this time, Gao Dong's face was facing Sun Ji, and his neck was exposed because he was tilting his head.
"Actually, I don't want your lives! You have no enmity with me, I'm not a murderer, and killing you won't do us any good. Zheng Xiaocheng gestured at Gao Dong's throat with a knife, and said to Sun Ji: "But I need blood in the human body, and one person is not enough, I need a lot." As he spoke, he only heard the sound of a knife cutting through his body, and Zheng Xiaocheng cut Gao Dong's throat lightly. He did not hesitate to do so, as if he had killed not a man, but an animal.
Blood gushed out like a spring, and it fell right into the bowl that Zheng Xiaocheng put in front of Gao Dong, and the sound of "whooshing" was like pouring water into it.
"Ah~" Sun Ji let out a terrifying scream, and he saw that Gao Dong's body began to convulse continuously due to the large amount of blood gushing out. At this moment, Sun Ji was so frightened that he peed his pants, his whole body trembled like chaff, his voice was hoarse, and he still howled with his mouth open.
At this time, Zheng Xiaocheng raised his head and smiled evilly at Sun Ji.
Sun Ji felt that he was about to have a nervous breakdown, and a living person had his throat cut in front of him, which was probably the most terrifying thing he had ever seen in his life.
"You, you're not human, you're the devil, you're the devil!" Sun Ji no longer knew what words to use to describe Zheng Xiaocheng, but he felt that the person in front of him was the most terrifying person he had ever seen in his life.
"I can't help it!" Zheng Xiaocheng explained to Sun Ji: "Draining the blood is death, and cutting off the neck is also death, so why make him suffer?" I'm doing this to help him. ”
There is simply no humanity in saying this, and Sun Ji's heart is already full of despair that is on the verge of death.
Seeing that more than half of the blood in the bowl, Zheng Xiaocheng tore off a piece of tape and quickly circled Gao Dong's neck a few times, seeing that the blood stopped, he threw Gao Dong's body on the ground as soon as he let go, and Gao Dong had no breath of life at this time.
Picking up the big bowl full of blood, Zheng Xiaocheng was extremely excited, he ran to the tree, picked up a brush and carefully began to brush the blood in the bowl onto the tree. His movements were light and careful, as if he was painting a work of art, and Sun Ji on the side was stunned.
Soon a bowl of blood was brushed, Zheng Xiaocheng went to Gao Dong's corpse again, picked up the wrapped tape with a knife, and then brushed it onto the tree after releasing a bowl of blood, repeating this action back and forth and enjoying it.
When the wound on Gao Dong's neck solidified, Zheng Xiaocheng opened Gao Dong's clothes again, stabbed and cut him indiscriminately with a knife, as long as he could let out blood, he didn't care about abusing a corpse at all.
Seeing that Gao Dong's body was tossed by Zheng Xiaocheng and could no longer shed blood, Sun Ji was a clever man, and he didn't know if it was his turn next.
However, at this moment, there were gunshots in the distance, and at first there were only a few shots, but it didn't take long for a gunshot to sound, and Sun Ji suddenly felt hopeful, there could be so many guns, and the people who came were either armed police or troops.
Zheng Xiaocheng seemed to see the hope in Sun Ji's eyes, and he sneered and said to him: "Don't count on it, their guns are like firing guns during the New Year, they must be in big trouble, and there is no return now!" You should feel lucky that you have outlived them! ”
These words made Sun Ji's eyes immediately darken.
However, Zheng Xiaocheng did not continue to brush the blood after speaking, but ran into the darkness and didn't know what to do, and only came back after a while.
Originally, when Zheng Xiaocheng disappeared, Sun Ji thought of running away, needless to say, someone must have come to save them. But when he thought of Zheng Xiaocheng's words just now, and then listened to the gunfire that had begun to weaken, he didn't dare. Zheng Xiaocheng came here with all his heart, he must have been prepared, and he might run away and die faster.
However, the gunfire just now gave Sun Ji a strong desire to survive, he wanted to have a good talk with Zheng Xiaocheng instead of sitting still, maybe he could pay some price in exchange for his own life, so he took the initiative to talk to Zheng Xiaocheng, the content was nothing more than to use money and interests to persuade Zheng Xiaocheng to let himself go.
Zhao Jinfu and I both knew about the rest of the matter, and the conversation we heard at that time was that Sun Ji was talking to Zheng Xiaocheng about conditions.
Zhao Jinfu and I listened to Sun Ji's words and had a relatively complete understanding of the whole thing, many details were similar to what we had predicted at the beginning, and now the question is to unravel what Zheng Xiaocheng's purpose is in doing these things and what secrets he is hiding.
However, we still need to find an effective way to pry his mouth open, so I suggested that Zhao Jinfu could go and inspect the tree first to see what the hell Zheng Xiaocheng was doing by smearing human blood on the tree.
Zhao Jinfu and I had the same idea, so the two of us came to the tree where Zheng Xiaocheng had smeared human blood before.
When we got closer, we realized that this tree was very unusual, it was not like the same kind of big tree, the Rhododendron King, the surface was a layer of bark, although it was pitted but generally smooth. And the bark of this tree turned out to be wrinkled, one by one like waves.
