[014] Totem

Every unexpected event happened unexpectedly, before Xiao Ming was ready to go home to see Master's plan.

Han Bin has not been found, and Xiaoxi is missing indirectly. Saying goes; To live to see people, to die to see corpses, there are neither, so where are the two of them?

If Junjun said that Han Bin was with Xiaoxi, then what are they doing now? Where is the exact location? Thinking of this, Xiao Ming's mind came to the situation of going to Menling Village last night.

If I am not mistaken, the dilapidated house I went to last night should be the house that Master Zhong Kui once described. In other words, this room is Master's home.

"Something big is wrong, come and see." Someone shouted, which made Xiao Ming tremble. The scream was not good, so he got up with a very fast movement and ran to find the source of the shout.

Who would have thought that when they were looking for Xiaoxi, they actually ignored the old lady's mourning hall. In the center of the mourning hall, that is, above the coffin containing the old lady's body, on the beam of the mourning hall, hung a stiff corpse.

Judging from the clothes of the deceased, she is undoubtedly Xiaoxi. Her feet were straight and vertical, her eyes bulged, her tongue exposed, and a terrifying look on her face. The deceased was wearing a pair of white socks on his feet, and at the vertical end of his feet, on the lid of the coffin, there was a pair of indistinct shoe prints, ...... which fell to the side of the coffin. Could it be that Xiaoxi climbed the coffin and hung herself on the strap on the beam?

The onlookers did not dare to approach with fear on their faces. Someone had already gone to the police station to report to the police, Xiao Ming stared at Xiao Xi's body, and did not dare to act rashly, everything had to wait for someone from the police station to check it.

Someone came from the police station, circled a cue point above the beam for the deceased to hang, and then put the deceased down. When he put down Xiao Xi, Xiao Ming noticed that he didn't know what it was on her clothes, a bit like a totem thing. Standing far away, although there were doubts in his heart, he didn't dare to step forward because of his identity and asked for something.

The cook seems to be quite familiar with the people at the police station, and from time to time she gets closer to take a look and chatter.

Jiang Rong and the others didn't dare to show their faces, and they hid in the house one by one. I am afraid that when the people at the police station see them, they will send them back, or they will alarm their families to pick them up.

The people from the police station left the old house, and the cook secretly told Xiao Ming. The police station determined that Xiaoxi committed suicide, and the hanging strap and the fingerprints left on the edge of the coffin were all her own.

"And what's the deal with having a totem on her clothes?"

"Totem? Not at all! The cook looked at Xiao Mingdao in disbelief.

"Maybe I'm dazzled." Xiao Ming sighed.

Jiang Rong and the others didn't dare to come out of the house, and Xiao Ming had to go and give them a voice before he went back to see the situation of Master Zhong Kui.

When Xiao Ming returned home, he felt really tired. But thinking about the Master, I didn't have time to sit down and rest, so I hurriedly ran into the Master's room to see.

Isn't it? Master was still sleeping in bed. Looking at the way he looks, he almost never gets up.

His wife told Xiao Ming that this master of his was really an uncle. But I enjoyed it, ate and slept, slept and ate, and I didn't bother to say a word.

Master is good, Xiao Ming's heart is very comfortable. He grinned and said, "That's good, what else do you want?" Master is my relative, you wait for me, don't ask anything else. ”

A virtuous wife has no reason to refute her husband's words. Except for the promise of promise, there was really nothing to say. There was no situation in the master, so naturally it had nothing to do with the strange person in Jiang Rong's description.

The idea of ruling out the possibility that Master might appear in Menling Village did not exist, then another question came to mind. Who would secretly appear in Jiang Rong's sight, and kindly remind them that they were going in the wrong direction.

Xiao Ming pedaled all the way, thinking about this unbelievable question all the way. Unknowingly, he came to the junction of Huilong Bay and Donghua Village, and it was still early to calculate the time, so he resolutely turned around and went to the direction of Donghua Village.

Standing at the junction of Donghua Village and Menling Village in broad daylight, watching the whole situation of Menling Village, the line of sight is far away, the lonely tombs that no one cares about, and the wind is blowing a large number of white flowers, fluttering up and down. Retracting the line of sight, the black window holes, and the ruins and broken walls are so shocking, extremely desolate, making people feel like crying without tears.

Searching little by little, will Han Bin be here? The cold wind blew Xiao Ming's forehead coldly, and he subconsciously shook his forehead. Just as he raised his hand and brushed his forehead, in the blink of an eye, he caught a glimpse of a shadow that quickly flickered and disappeared into the pile of ruined houses.

My heart jumped inexplicably, and I secretly said: What is it? It can't be a legendary ghost, right? How can a ghost come out in broad daylight? Thinking like this, he naturally became bolder, and he decided to go and see it.

Beneath their feet were thick and messy weeds, which had been trampled on an easy path by them. Following this path, Xiao Ming came to Zhong Kui's home on the night of the incident.

The crooked room is like an old man in his last years. It was a pillar that was struggling to hold on, almost crushed by the grass growing on the ridge. The two black window holes, resembling the old man's desperate eyeless eye sockets, opened exaggeratedly, as if to devour all the creatures that appeared in front of him.

Xiao Ming didn't enter the house, not because he was afraid of anything. Instead, I was attracted by the mountain beam behind this old house, and there seemed to be a cave in the middle of the mountain beam.

He once heard from his master that the caves here have a good point, that is, they are warm in winter and cool in summer. It is the best place to store the grain recovered from the field, which will not rot and will not become moldy.

Before the people here disappeared, was the food in the cave still there? What would the cave look like now? Could the 'person' who disappeared just now run into the cave?

Xiao Ming didn't pull up his trouser leg to prevent the thorns along the way from breaking the leg pole. Thorns are the kind with sharp teeth, and they really hurt when they cut through the skin. After stopping and stopping along the way, he finally reached the mouth of the first cave.

At the mouth of the cave, there are many cobwebs, and it can be seen that this cave should not enter or leave the cave or any other creatures. Otherwise, the cobwebs would not have been so well preserved.

Xiao Ming gave up the first cave and chose to continue searching. He followed the traces of cobwebs to see if anyone lived here.

The hard work paid off, and Xiao Ming didn't know how long he had walked, anyway, he stopped when he faced a cave without cobwebs. Look left and right, go decisively, and stand still under a branch that can be wrenched.

There was a crackling, and Xiao Ming had an extra stubby wooden stick in his hand, which he used to enter the cave to defend himself. What are the secrets of the cave? He didn't know, anyway, he just felt that there was a problem here.

Entering the cave, the stone and gravel under your feet are messy, and it is very difficult to walk. The light dimmed suddenly, and the deeper it went, the darker it became. However, he had already been mentally prepared, and he still had a box of matchsticks on his body. Pinch a few matchsticks along the way, stumble and grope your way forward, and use the faint beam of matchsticks to reflect the cave walls all the way. This cave was really beyond the scope of his imagination, it was very deep, and he was a little hesitant to continue looking.

Just when Xiao Ming was hesitating, he glanced at it casually. On the stone wall of the cave, he saw something that surprised him immensely.
