Chapter 163: Smile Mask (Second Update)
I frowned and thought for a long time, before I suddenly remembered, isn't this the scene when I encountered the demon god's soul in my dream and transformed into Ji Zeming, and he stuffed mud cake into my mouth?
It's just that that time it was a mud cake that was stuffed into my mouth, and this time, it was a monster that I had never heard of at all, and no one saved me, let alone where the monster went, whether it ran away, or hid in my body.
But now is not the time to worry about this, since the monster is entrenched in this ancient coffin, this ancient coffin must be strange, as long as you find that strange place, after destroying it. Maybe we'll be able to finish the man-faced monster.
Taoists say that everything has a Tao.
This Tao is about rules, just like people need to eat, drink, and breathe air to live, fish must be in water to live, and plants need sunlight and water to grow.
Those ghosts and stuff. It also needs to survive the roots, ghosts need to be in a place where yin energy gathers, and monsters also need to hide in a suitable environment for survival.
No matter how powerful that face monster is, it needs to have the root of existence, and that root. It must be in this coffin.
Thinking of this, I picked up the high-power fluorescent lamp on the ground and shone it towards the ancient coffin, only to look inside, and I was stunned.
Inside this ancient coffin, there was a corpse, dressed in gorgeous clothes, but the clothes had obviously been corroded, revealing the white bones in the clothes.
What surprised me was not the bones and clothes, but the face of the bones was actually wearing a wooden mask, and what was even more strange was that the mask actually had eyebrows and expressions painted on it, it was a grinning human face.
The smiling face was very weird, because it was so fake, and at first glance it reminded people of the makeup and smiling face of Western clowns.
Many people think that the clown's smile is very funny, but some people who are sensitive to micro-expressions will find the clown's smile very scary, because that kind of smile is exaggerated and false, and this false smile often hides conspiracy and fear behind it in reality.
Therefore, there is a special disease in the Western psychological community, which is called clown phobia.
And such a weird smiley face mask actually appeared in an ancient coffin, which really makes people feel creepy.
You know, the Chinese are very traditional, no one will put this kind of disrespectful mask in the coffin of the dead family, not to mention, there is no such tradition of wearing masks on the dead body, in my memory, only the mummy of the pharaohs in Egypt will wear a mask that symbolizes majesty.
Seeing the weird smiling mask, Sun Chao was very curious: "How can there be such a strange mask?" It feels like a clown mask. β
With that, he bent down and reached out to take the mask.
"Don't!" I hurriedly stopped it.
But it was too late, and he had already reached out and grabbed the smiley mask, and asked me with some surprise, "Huh?!" What's wrong? β
I saw that he was holding the smiley mask, and there didn't seem to be anything wrong with it, so I thought I was thinking too much, shook my head, and said, "It's okay." But let's put this mask back, it's better to burn all the things in this coffin. This is the lair of the human-faced monster, and nothing can be left behind. β
Sun Chao was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted, this mask should be a little inappropriate, and quickly threw it back into the coffin, but under this throw, he couldn't help but exclaim: "Oops! β
"What's wrong?" Huo Ran had been watching from the sidelines, and he couldn't help but ask at this moment.
"It's nothing, it's just a prick in the hand." Sun Chao said, stretched out his hand under the high-power fluorescent lamp, and a red blood bead appeared on his right index finger, which was extremely dazzling under the illumination of the light.
I always felt that all this happened one after another was weird, a bit like the rhythm of the characters in a horror movie, and I was anxious, and immediately said: "Don't delay, quickly burn everything in this coffin, it's a hundred." β
Flame is an important force for purifying evil things, and it is the nemesis of many ghosts, when encountering monsters that they don't know how to deal with. Most of the time you can choose to burn it with fire.
There was kerosene in the things we had prepared in advance, but it was put outside, and just as a few of us were about to pour the kerosene from above, there was a hurried footstep at the basement door: "Stop it all." We are the police. β
The people from the police station arrived, and after a few workers were scared away just now, they directly called the police, with a strange face or something, and it is estimated that the people from the police station took it as nonsense. But there are ancient coffins unearthed, that is, cultural relics, and of course the people at the police station are concerned.
Now it's okay, before the ancient coffin could be burned, the scene was blocked by the people from the police station.
Then another professor from the archaeological team rushed to the basement of the mental hospital. After some observation of the contents of the coffin, a new round of excavations was carried out in the basement.
According to the leading Professor Liang, there will definitely be a lot of funerary goods in a coffin of such specifications, and it is likely that many precious cultural relics will be dug up underneath. This excavation is likely to be a major breakthrough in the history of Chinese archaeology.
"Professor Leung. The contents of this coffin really can't be kept, it must be burned, this is a lair of a monster with a human face, if it is not burned, it is likely that something will happen. "I'm still a little bit reluctant. After waiting for Professor Liang to arrive, I chatted with him as the first witness.
Professor Liang is an old scholar with gray hair and reading glasses, and when he heard my words, he couldn't help but roll his eyes at me: "Young man. Don't look at so many networks, there are too many nonsense heresies in it, where are there any ghosts and gods in this world? β
"Professor Liang, this ancient coffin is really weird, don't say anything else. This practice of putting masks on the dead is not at all in Chinese history, right? This is not a normal tomb at all, so let's burn it quickly! I tried my best to persuade him.
"Don't waste your efforts, young man, and you're not right. In the history of Chinese tombs, it is indeed rare to wear masks for the dead, but it is not nothing, have you heard of Sanxingdui unearthed in Sichuan? There are a lot of weird masks in the funeral goods inside, don't push all the things you don't know on the ghosts. β
The meaning of Professor Liang's words is already obvious - it is you who are ignorant, ignorant and ignorant, and ignorant to attribute these to supernatural events, which is simply ignorant and ridiculous.
Persuasion was completely useless. Professor Liang was already tired of me, and called the police to maintain order, and I was pushed aside.
Then Sun Chao's father arrived, and when he heard that Huo Ran and I were still patients in the hospital, he was so angry that he almost slapped Sun Chao. Huo Ran and I were naturally "invited" back to the ward by the nurses.
The contents of the coffin were not burned, and I was always faintly uneasy, and now the face monster didn't know where to run, and it was even more dangerous, if the other party was injured. If you continue to do evil, then the patients in this mental hospital will not have enough to eat.
Actually, I'm more worried about whether that face monster has already burrowed into my body and is quietly eating away at my soul?
There was nothing to do in the room, so I sat down cross-legged on the bed. Closing his eyes and starting the Taoist breathing method he had used before, he wanted to enter that strange state of consciousness and feel if the face monster still existed.
I have probably entered that strange mental state through this breathing method before, and this time, I went very well, and soon entered a state of desirelessness and thoughtlessness, and I can also feel the world around me.
The aura in the mental hospital was chaotic, not much different from what I had seen before, without the cold aura of the human face monster, I felt it carefully for a long time, and found nothing, and then I was finally convinced that the human face monster was either dead or had run away.
This result is actually not bad for me, at least. I don't have to worry about being eaten by that face monster at any time, or having my consciousness imprisoned by it, as for how to get out of this mental hospital, I will wait until the archaeological work in the mental hospital is over, and then think of other ways.
Soon it was time for the group event for dinner. In the past, Huo Ran liked this time the most, because he could watch the news broadcast, memorize all the news, and analyze every detail carefully, but now he has no such interest.
The strange thing about the human face also made him very worried.
I hadn't washed my face since I came out of the basement in the afternoon, and when it was time to eat, I suddenly remembered that I had been covered by a monster with a human face, and it had been covered with a lot of urine, and maybe it had also been stained on my face.
Thinking of this, I hurriedly went to the bathroom, desperately took water to wash my face, and deliberately rinsed my mouth.
When I finished washing my face, I looked up, and I looked at myself in the mirror, and my hairs stood on end in frightβI was wearing a mask with a weird smile on my face.
