Chapter Twenty-Eight: Monsters
Tang Tao thought about a lot of things along the way, his mind was full of Xia Yuqing, Tang Tao had already booked the ring before Xia Yuqing's accident, and was waiting to propose to her on Xia Yuqing's birthday, but he didn't expect Xia Yuqing to disappear out of thin air, Tang Tao was puzzled, he didn't understand why Xia Yuqing disappeared, even if he wanted to break up, couldn't he say hello?
Hu Xuebing's home was much farther away than Tang Tao had imagined, and it took more than an hour of bumpy rides to reach his destination, a small, dilapidated village in the middle of Qingzhou.
There are a few old people with dull eyes and empty eyes sitting at the entrance of the village, a few leper dogs are chasing and running on the road full of garbage, and when they see strangers, they immediately straighten their necks and bark wildly, some tiled houses have collapsed because of years of disrepair, and the furnishings of the year can still be seen under the ruins, and the whole road is empty, and there is almost no one in sight.
Hu Xuebing rode around and finally stopped at the door of a small courtyard, the yard is not big, overgrown with weeds, it seems that no one has cleaned it up for a long time, the tile house is surrounded by stacks of firewood, a three-ring lock is hung on the dilapidated wooden door, and a smell of Chinese medicine floats out along the crack of the door. There were still a few piles of dog shit at the door, and there was almost no place for foot feet when it was dirty.
Hu Xuebing was a little reluctant to apologize again and again, saying that he was usually too busy with work and had no time to take care of it.
"I'm sorry to make you laugh." Hu Xuebing took out a bunch of keys and opened the door a few times.
The room was pitch black.
"Bang dang!"
I don't know what fell to the ground in the dark, and then a black shadow swooped past Tang Tao's feet, and Tang Tao took two steps back in fright.
It was a black cat with a pitch-black body, and the black cat glanced back at Tang Tao and quickly got into the grass and disappeared without a trace.
Hu Xuebing walked to the door and fumbled for a while and turned on the light, the room was very simple, dirty and messy, and there were unwashed iron basins and a bottle of old white dried rice that had not been drunk and a thumb-thick bamboo stick on the black table.
There seemed to be a person shrunk in the corner on one side, Tang Tao took a step closer and smelled a smell of feces, and then saw that the ground was full of excrement, and the smell was unbearable, and when his eyes adjusted to the light in the room, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.
I saw a ragged woman curled up in the corner, she was wearing a skirt that had been torn and could not be torn again, a thumb-thick rope was tied to her feet, the other end of the rope was tied to a wooden stake on a wall, the long hair covered the woman's face, the woman's back was trembling with fear against Tang Tao, her back was covered with blood marks, and the lines were intertwined with each other, judging from the shape, it should be caused by the whipping of bamboo strips, the flesh and blood were blurred, it was too cruel.
"How can you do that? You are abused! Sophie was a little angry, Hu Xuebing had gone too far, even a madman couldn't treat him like this.
However, Hu Xuebing did not answer Sophie, and the sound of the door closing suddenly sounded from behind the two.
It was too late for Tang Tao to turn his head, Hu Xuebing suddenly closed the door and locked it at a very fast speed.
"What are you doing? Open the door! Tang Tao opened the door and stared at Hu Xuebing.
Hu Xuebing, who had just been honest and honest, showed a hideous expression at this time, with a treacherous smile on the corner of his mouth, and turned around and disappeared in front of Tang Tao's eyes.
Not good, fooled!
"What is he doing here? Is this man sick? Sophie tugged hard at the door and found that it wouldn't open at all.
Although the door was made of wood, it was so thick that it was impossible to break it open with brute force.
"Smack!"
The room was suddenly dark, and without asking, he knew that Hu Xuebing had cut off the electricity.
"Hey, hey, hey......" A creepy laugh came from the corner, the voice was sharp and weird, and it seemed like grinding teeth and creaking.
The two turned around almost instinctively, and Tang Tao hurriedly turned on the flashlight on his mobile phone.
Under the illumination of the light, I saw that the woman who was still sitting on the ground just now had slowly stood up, it was an ugly face that Tang Tao had never seen, the woman was thin and only skinny, her two eyes were deeply trapped in the eye sockets, her right side of her face had completely rotted, revealing the bloody gums, the teeth were long and sharp, as if half of her face had been torn off, she crooked her mouth and smirked, but there was a fierceness in her eyes.
"Be careful, she has a knife in her hand!"
Sophie stepped forward and took a stance, and Tang Tao noticed that the woman was holding a rusty kitchen knife in her hand.
What kind of beautiful young and beautiful daughter is this, she is clearly a crazy woman who is over half a hundred years old.
"Call the police, I'll deal with her." Sophie said.
Tang Tao was about to dial the number, only to find that there was no signal at all in this bird place.
Suddenly, the woman seemed to be stimulated by something, she knelt on the ground and kept retching, her whole body trembled like chaff, and she stretched her neck and howled like a dog.
"It's not good, she may have rabies, don't let her touch it." Tang Tao has seen rabies, which has a fatality rate of 100 percent, and once infected, he will definitely die.
Sophie snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "You may not understand, this is a trap at all, if we are killed by this crazy woman then we will die in vain, she is a madman, and the law can't control her." ”
The woman wiped her mouth and stood up again, trembling over.
"Don't come here!" Sophie yelled.
However, the woman did not react, and slowly raised the kitchen knife, her swaying body was like a zombie without a sense, and she pointed the kitchen knife at Sophie's face and smiled even brighter.
"Hey, hey, your face is so pretty, I'm going to eat it!"
Saying that, the woman pounced, Sophie was about to dodge when she was suddenly pulled back by Tang Tao, the woman ran too fast, she didn't realize that she was still tied to the rope on her feet, and she fell to the ground, and the kitchen knife cut through her palm, and the blood flowed.
The woman didn't seem to feel the pain anymore, she actually leaned down and licked the blood on her hands frantically, and even put her fingers in her mouth and kept sucking, and her mouth was full of blood.
Sophie saw a burst of hair in her heart, although she could fight, but this was the first time she had seen such a scene, this woman had rabies, and there was a danger of being infected at any time, and fighting with her was a game of life, once she was infected, then wait to see God.
Fortunately, she still has a rope on her body, otherwise it would be really difficult to deal with.
Tang Tao glanced left and right, the house had no windows, the roof was four or five meters high from the ground, it was impossible to climb up, the only exit was the gate, and the gate was locked.
At this time, Tang Tao's clothes were gently pulled by Sophie, her expression was nervous and pointed to the woman not far away, Tang Tao looked at it and was a little panicked, and saw that the stake of the rope had been pulled out by the woman.
The hearts of the two people instantly rose to their throats, and they didn't dare to come out, for fear of disturbing the woman.
Tang Tao took a step back slightly, and seemed to have stepped on a hard thing under his feet, and when he looked down, he realized that it was a shovel. Tang Tao made a gesture to Sophie, pointed at the woman and then pointed to the ground, signaling for Sophie to cover him.
Sophie nodded knowingly, Tang Tao slowly squatted down and gently held the shovel, lifting it up little by little, seeing that the shovel had been completely picked up, Tang Tao couldn't help but exhale.
"Meow!"
The black cat suddenly squeezed in through the crack in the door, barked and quickly got out.
Tang Tao and Sophie glanced at each other, secretly bitter in their hearts, and the woman once again focused her eyes on them, grinning and revealing her bloody teeth and smirking again.
"You're back, Mom has been waiting for you for a long time, why can't you come to see me."
