XXXII. Molars
"This person is alive," Ali's words immediately made me feel the urge to rush out.
Fortunately, I was told by reason that I must not act rashly, there is definitely much more danger outside than in this coffin.
The two of us were pressed against the corpse. Although I was terrified to the extreme, I couldn't help but look at the remaining corpses.
At a glance, I was already scared out of my mind.
It was the front of the body, but the face was not visible. Because it was a mask, a smiling fox mask. The slender eyes and the pointed chin put together a chilling feeling.
The corpse was wearing armor made of jade pieces, and I don't know if this is the legendary golden jade clothes, but I think this dress should be very valuable.
The corpse had a mask covering its face, and its body was all covered in jade clothes, and no trace of skin was exposed. Therefore, it is difficult to determine whether it is male or female, and it is not known what the extent of decay is.
Not to mention anything else, the shape of this corpse alone is unique enough. It's like an Egyptian mummy, but it's wrapped in a 'jade coat'.
Ali and I were close to each other, but fortunately there was a lot of space in the coffin, and Ali and I were huddled aside, but there was still a fist away from the corpse.
"You can see he's got a heaval in his chest, obviously breathing." Ali whispered in my ear.
She exhaled like a blue, and the roots of my ears were tickled by her, but my heart was extremely frightened, because I saw that the position of the corpse's chest was indeed slightly undulating. It looks like he's really breathing.
The slender fox eyes stared seriously in my direction, which was very uncomfortable.
I shouted in my heart that this is impossible, how can a person who has been dead for a thousand years still be alive. Is there really an elixir in this world?
I glanced at Ali, and then I had the courage to put my finger at the point of the fox's nose, and at first I didn't feel it, but after looking closely, I immediately exploded my scalp. Damn, this corpse does have breathing.
This time it was really unlucky, before he got out of the wolf's den, he had already automatically come to the tiger.
The corpse didn't seem to be in danger other than being able to breathe. I carefully observed the scene inside the coffin, secretly thinking about what to do if the real corpse jumped up and attacked.
In this narrow place, no matter how powerful the corpse is, it should not be able to use its hands and feet, the only worry is that we are afraid that the coffin lid will be opened by us, so that as soon as the worms come in, we will be dead and alive.
Before I could figure out what to do, I was startled by something standing in the corner of the coffin.
It was a blood-red fox, with fur as red as fire, and eyes that were tightly squinted, looking very similar to the mask on the corpse's face.
The body of the fox had turned into a dried corpse, apparently buried with the owner of the tomb.
I have a very special fear of foxes. At this time, the moment I saw the corpse of the fox, I felt a feeling of hair in my heart.
We all know that the fox is a very evil thing, and it is said that this beast will use the yin energy of the deceased to practice on its own.
There is such a rumor in our hometown. It is said that during the three years of disaster in the early days of liberation, tens of millions of people starved to death in the country. Because there was no food to eat, a group of young people in our village started to hunt, and of course, it was all done secretly. During this period, I encountered a particularly evil thing.
One day, my grandfather and a dozen young people were chasing a fox in the wild forest outside the village, although they all knew that fox meat was not tasty, but there were cases of cannibalism in those days, let alone a fox. This group of young people can't care so much, they chase all the way, in the wilderness, although the speed of the fox is not slow, but after all, the plain place, it will not be lost.
When they chased after the loess ditch east of the river, they saw the fox in a hole from a distance. A few of them got their spirits down, took shovels and dug down. The most terrifying thing is that in the end, an old lady covered in white hair was dug up, and people were scared to flee on the spot.
Later, when my grandfather told me this story, I had nightmares for days. From then on, I kind of stayed away from foxes.
At this time, the dried corpse of the fox in the corner of the coffin suddenly made my nerves tense.
Seeing that something was wrong with me, Ali asked me what was wrong? Afraid of this?
I waved my hand and said it was okay. Take out the dagger at her waist and give it to Ali for her self-defense. And I myself clung to the gun with four bullets left.
I shifted my gaze, not daring to make the slightest movement with Ali, staring in the direction of the corpse, trying not to look at the fox mask's slender eyes, because those eyes were too realistic for the faint of heart to look at.
As the minutes ticked by, the sound of bugs hitting the coffin board could still be heard outside. I looked at my watch, and it was only four minutes later, plus the time we had just run away
In total, nearly eight minutes have passed. Beard said the bugs only survived for about ten minutes after waking up. I breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, and said in my heart that I would definitely pull this corpse out and study it carefully when I went out later. Damn, you dare to hide here to scare Lao Tzu.
I looked at my watch, reading it second by second. The first time, I thought the damn second hand was moving that slowly.
While I was anxiously waiting, suddenly, a very dull gunshot was heard outside.
At first, I thought I heard it, but when the second sound came, I was sure that it was definitely a gunshot. And it sounds like it's still in our neighborhood.
The first thing that came to my mind was that there were people out there. But soon this idea was abandoned by me, those bugs have not completely left, in this case, whoever encounters it will run away, which is not afraid of death and dares to shoot outside?
Could it be our people?
It's very likely that something happened to them in another coffin. As a last resort, he did not shoot in order to protect himself. Could it be that the body in the coffin where they were hiding was also alive? Quite possibly.
That.. Who will shoot it? My head was racing. First of all, I ruled out the possibility of flying mirrors, because this guy never seemed to use a gun, at least I didn't see him use it.
The second is Ayumi and Beard. Both of them had guns on them, and they were both good at using them.
Two gunshots drowned out the sound of the bugs crashing into the coffin. Soon everything was quiet outside, and inside the coffin was even more peaceful and terrifying.
In this case, I could even hear the breathing of Ali and me.
Wrong!
It should be the breathing of three people, and under the deliberately suppressed gasps of Ali and me, there is another faint breath. I know it's the voice of the thousand-year-old brown man in the coffin. Still, I glanced at the corpse's face.
Just one glance almost killed me.
When I raised my eyes and looked at the mask on the corpse's face, I suddenly felt that something was wrong.
When I squinted and looked closely, my head exploded with a thud. The corpse just now was obviously lying flat, and the mask on its face was also facing upwards. But now things had changed, the corpse had actually measured its body, and the slender fox eyes on the mask were motionless, looking in the direction of Ali and me with a smile.
I felt my hair stand on end.
God, that fear is definitely not something that can be described in words. If you are stared at by a terrifying mask in the dark of night, even if you know that there is no danger, your heart will be furious. This is the awe of a dead thing, just as we are afraid when we walk at night and see a stake.
I'm in such a mood right now, not to mention that the corpse in front of me is already weird and abnormal. It makes that feeling even stronger.
All I could do was try to adjust the muzzle of the gun in the direction of the corpse, and shoot him as soon as something happens, whatever the hell he is, and greet him with bullets first.
Ali also saw the change in front of her, and whispered to me, "When did he turn around?" ”。
I shook my head and said I didn't know, but as soon as I turned around just now, he was already like this.
The motionless appearance of the corpse overwhelmed Ali and me for a moment.
At this time, there was movement outside.
This time we could hear it clearly, and the sound was near us. And there was also the sound of flying mirrors.
"Grass, uncle. Dare to sneak attack your Taoist master in the back, look for death, damn! Feijing scolded endlessly, followed by the sound of fists to the flesh.
I secretly thought to myself, there is really something greasy in this coffin, and it seems that only me is safe.
I just finished thinking about it. Before I could rejoice, I suddenly heard the grinding sound of teeth in my ears.
I listened carefully and made sure there was nothing wrong. That's the sound of people grinding their teeth when sleeping, and you can't get it wrong.
The voice was so close that I thought it was Ali joking with me, and when I looked at her, I saw that she was also frowning in surprise.
It's weird, it's so hard that the dead ghost has a habit of grinding his teeth when he sleeps?
I set my eyes on the corpse's masked face. It's hard to calm down in my heart.
The sound of grinding my teeth was getting louder and louder, and I didn't care about the flying mirror outside at all now, and all my thoughts were on the sound.
After looking at it carefully for a while, the corpse was still motionless. My heart was on fire, and I glanced at Ali and said, "You cover me with a gun, and I'll take the mask away to see what is going on." ”。
As I was about to do it, Ali stopped me on the side and told me to calm down and don't make any trouble.
I waved at her and said it was okay, then gave her the gun and had her at my side, while I took the dagger from her hand and slowly picked it up at the corpse's face.
The corpse's chest still rose and fell gently, indicating that the man was indeed alive, yes. I swallowed, calmed down, and the dagger stabbed at the fox mask with a snap, and the mask flew in response, slammed into the lid of the coffin, and then fell back to the man's chest.
Before I could see the man's face clearly, the voice of the flying mirror suddenly came from outside: "You must not unmask the corpse." ”。
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of grinding teeth in this coffin suddenly became intense.
