Chapter 2 Encountering a Wild Dog Spirit in the Graveyard
Do you know why I have heart palpitations? Because this stench is different from the general stench, it is the unique stench after people decay, and the stench of ordinary things decay, which can be clearly separated, the three of us were stunned there for a while, and then began to look for the source of the stench, then the thin monkey said: "Brother Daring, look there." ”
As soon as I heard this, I looked in the direction pointed by the thin monkey, and saw a corpse on the ground, a torn corpse to be exact, this corpse was scattered next to a new grave, with obvious marks of gnawing on its limbs, and the torso in the middle, as if it had been pulled out by something with its mouth, was already empty, and there was green corpse water flowing inside. Strangely, I didn't see the head of the corpse, and I don't know if the head was taken by something. I saw this extremely horrible scene, my palms were cold, the soles of my feet and scalp were numb, and my heart was in my throat, as if I was choking my breath and I couldn't breathe.
The era of the Republic of China was an era of suffering, dead people and the like, we have still seen it, but it was so miserable, it was the first time I saw it, I felt a little cramp in my legs and stomach, and I turned back vigorously, and the fool said in horror behind me: "This, this is the grave of my second uncle, it has not passed five or seven, how can it be?" ”
As soon as the fool said this, I remembered his second uncle, his second uncle died of water drum disease, many people will not know about water drum disease, in fact, it is ascites caused by diseases, such as liver ascites, at that time, it was not like now, and it is impossible to know what caused it. I remember that when the second fool died, his whole body was as scorched as gold paper, and his stomach was bulging, and I wanted to go over to see it clearly, but my mother wouldn't let me go, saying that the sick person (infected).
The fool anxiously asked me what to do, I was just about to speak, when I suddenly had a more creepy feeling, I felt that something was staring at us in the bushes behind me, and my scalp was more numb for a while, this feeling would not normally appear, what was behind us? Will it be more terrifying than this dead body in front of you? I feel it, and so do the skinny monkeys and fools, and sometimes people feel danger very accurately.
We all looked behind us, only to see a bush dozens of steps behind us, our mountain here is mostly sour jujube and other short shrubs, not tall, but full of thorns, sour and sweet sour jujubes on it, but today we look there, not to eat, but to feel that terrible thing, hidden behind the bushes.
I looked at the bushes and said to the skinny monkey and the fool, "I feel something there, do you feel it?" ”
The thin monkey said, "Brother Daring, you said it wouldn't be a ghost, right?" I've heard my dad say that's what it feels like to see a ghost. ”
It was noon, and the ghost would not come out during the day, so I wanted to refute the thin monkey, but just as I was about to open my mouth, I suddenly found a pair of blood-red eyes in the grass, yes, indeed eyes, and those blood-red eyes were staring at us. I couldn't help but believe the words of the thin monkey, and it was indeed a hell of a daylight. I pointed to those blood-red eyes in horror and said, "That, those eyes, they are indeed ghosts." ”
I said a little loudly, and at once I alarmed the terrible thing in the bushes, and I saw that the thing stood up at once, and was the size of a little donkey's foal, with two ears hanging down, like two fans, covered in black hair, shiny with oil, and a red sarcoma on its head, and two blood-red eyes, and a mouth of great size, with its fangs shining cold, and drooling from its mouth.
I exclaimed, "Wild dog spirits." ”
In our time, there were many people who starved to death, although they starved to death, but they did not starve to death these dogs, dogs are definitely stronger than people, they will start to eat people's dead bodies before starving to death. In fact, dogs are domesticated wolves, and cannibalism only restores their nature. At first, they only ate the children who died young, and they fought and tore the children in the stone towers, and then because they ate human flesh, their eyes became blood-red, and their bodies became bigger and bigger, and they stared at the dead people in the graves.
People pay attention to entering the soil for safety, as long as they are not too poor, they will try their best to get a thin-skinned coffin, the sarcoma on the head of the wild dog essence is to hit the thin-skinned coffin again and again, slowly formed, it looks like a sarcoma, but it is actually as hard as iron. They eat people a bit specially, first open the grave, hit the thin coffin with their heads, drag out the dead body, open the mouth with a big mouth, disembowel, because they eat carrion, so they are covered in corpse poison.
In fact, no one eats the dog that eats human flesh, and as long as the people in the village see the dog's eyes red and drooling in the mouth, they will find a rope to strangle him, and then find a place to bury it deeply. We looked at the wild dog spirit, and the wild dog spirit also stared at us, and I saw a kind of excitement in its eyes, the kind of excitement that only has to find food, and the old people often told us that this wild dog spirit is much more terrible than the monkey, and the wild dog spirit will eat people when the monkey eats, and the wild dog spirit is not, they are extremely greedy, even when they are not hungry, they will tear open people's chests and eat the internal organs.
I only have one thought, and that is to run for my life, some people want to say, there are as many wild dog spirits as donkey foals, such animals are theoretically faster than people, can you outrun wild dog spirits? The people in this village have experience, although the wild dog spirit runs fast, but the brain becomes dull because of eating carrion, they run straight as fast as the wind, but the turn is much slower, sometimes they run and run too late to turn, they will crash into the tree in front of them, that is because they have not had time to turn and crash.
When I thought about running, I said aloud, "Run, run, run." ”
I said to run, just run away, we all grew up in the village, usually donkeys all day long crazy horses, running like rabbits, but the wild dog spirit is faster, at that time from the bushes directly jumped out, towards me we pounced, I and the stupid thin monkey are brothers who grew up together, can not say that the heart has a heart, but the coordination did not say, I turned a corner, they followed me to run a corner, the wild dog spirit behind is really the same as the old people said, the speed is fast and slow.
When people flee for their lives, the potential is unlimited, those sour jujube trees and the like under our feet are no longer our obstacles, we run vigorously, run and run to a big dirt bag, in front of the big mound is a round-headed stone tablet, this big soil bag is the size of an acre of land, the top is bare, there is not a single grass, there are many robbery holes on the big mound, those robbery holes are left by tomb robbers. The wild dog spirit behind me had already caught up, and I saw a cavity in the mound, and said to the stupid thin monkey, "Quick, get into the big mound." ”
This seems to be a robbery hole, because of the age, the robbery cave collapsed, our mountain here is a stone mountain, generally can not be dug down, so it is an above-ground tomb, that is, to build a tomb on the ground, and then get the sealed soil. The cave had collapsed, like a door, and there were a lot of bricks and other things in the collapsed tunnel. I was short at that time, in order to escape for my life, I went straight in, the stupid thin monkey, also followed in, through the long tunnel, we entered the tomb, this tomb is very large, because there is a robbery hole on it, the tomb is not very dark, in the middle of the tomb, there are two stone platforms, two stone platforms are placed on the two coffins that are about to decay, on the top of the coffin, I don't know whether it is man-made, or collapsed, there are just two pillars of light, shining on the head of the coffin, it looks very weird.
There was nothing in the tomb except these two coffins, and then there was movement behind us, not to mention that the wild dog spirit came, I looked back, and saw that the wild dog spirit was at the mouth of the collapsed thief hole, looking at us with that pair of blood-red eyes, at this time we really became the turtle in the urn, and the wild dog spirit saw that its prey could not escape, and sat down at once, stretched out his long tongue, panting, and drooling while wheezing.
We had to run out, so I quickly looked inside, trying to find a place to escape, but I saw that the holes were open on the top of the tomb, and the top of the tomb was so high that we could not reach it, and then suddenly I found that there was a hole on the north side, and this hole was about the same height as our height, and the hole was round, and we could easily get into it, so I said, "Quick, get into that hole." ”
