Chapter 7: The Living Corpse in the Snowy Land
It was a "monster" that scared Jane Gao to the core. Because Jian Gao was so close to this monster, even the stench of this monster's exhalation smoked on Jian Gao's face. Why is this a monster?
In fact, this monster should be a "person" by standard, but his appearance is too terrifying, the monster still has a little hair on his head, a thin and thin face, two eyes bulging outwards and still open, a pair of dark eyes around not white eyes, but blood red, blood dripping from the corners of his eyes.
This is not what frightens Jane Gao the most, and then look at the monster's shriveled face without intact skin, patches of crimson flesh are exposed, and there is a black hole on the monster's right cheek that is connected by only a few strands of flesh, yes, a large hole is revealed in his face.
At this time, the monster was holding his arms on the edge of the window and was viciously facing Jian Gao in the window, and pieces of skin on his arms were also peeled off, revealing blood-red flesh. At this moment, the air froze.
After five or six seconds, Jane Gao finally regained his composure in the panic. Jian Gao didn't know why this "monster" hadn't attacked him yet, and Jian Gao had to think of a way to escape immediately.
Now Jian Gao held a flashlight in one hand and leaned over the window edge with the other, he had several options, one was to quickly close the window and think of another countermeasure after returning to the office. Another one is to immediately pull out the thorn and attack the monster directly.
Jian Gao thought about it carefully, neither of these countermeasures was feasible, because it was still uncertain whether it was the only monster. Why doesn't the monster attack itself directly, is it like a wolf, waiting for its companions? If that's the case, if you retreat into the house, you're likely to be besieged by monsters, and your chances of running away are a little slim. The second way is to immediately attack the monster with a military thorn, if you take it by surprise, Jian Gao will have a great chance of stabbing the monster, but Jian Gao thinks of the blood hole on the monster's face, such a wound monster is safe and sound, if he stabs the monster himself, the monster is fine, but it is not easy to provoke the monster, because now Jian Gao doesn't know what the combat power of this monster is?
At that moment, the monster also moved, its body leaning downward, its forearms bent, and the sound of "grunt, grunt" came out of its throat. Jian Gao looked bad, this monster was going to attack him, how should he deal with it now......
A strong light flashed in the night sky, and then only a "whoosh" was heard, and after a while, the night sky was quiet again.
Jane Gao sat slumped under the window outside the room, panting for air. Although the scene just now was only a short ten seconds, it really scared Jian Gao's soul, he sat there for half a minute, and then stood up in a hurry, because this place is not a place to stay for a long time, he immediately returned to the village.
Jane Gao almost ran along the way, and he didn't dare to turn on the flashlight, because that would very likely expose himself, and now he was not the only one here, and there was a nameless monster or unknown monster.
How did Jane Gao fight off the monster just now? At that time, the monster was about to attack Jian Gao, at this time, Jian Gao's subconscious body leaned forward, he felt something in the middle of his chest and the window edge to him, Jian Gao remembered that he was carrying a camera on his chest.
Jian Gao suddenly didn't know where the idea came from, he quickly took the camera with his hand, and then quickly pressed the switch, picked up the camera and pointed at the monster and pressed the shutter, as the powerful light of the flash flashed, the monster made a "whoop" sound, turned around and jumped out of the window, and disappeared into the long cold night with three jumps and two jumps.
Jian Gao couldn't care about anything else at this time, he hurriedly jumped out of the window, took off the cloth cover on the flashlight, and a pillar of light instantly folded out, Jian Gao shone around, there was nothing, only a footprint appeared on the snow in the southeast of the house. Jian Gao also sat down on the ground suddenly.
Jian Gao trotted all the way, and when Jian Gao returned to the village, it was already more than two o'clock, and the frightened Jian Gao also had a trace of joy in his heart along the way, one was that he found the clue of Xiao Chao's disappearance, and the other was that Jian Gao actually took a photo of an unknown monster, and this is big news after returning to Syracuse.
After entering the village, Jian Gao's heart finally let go of most of it, there were no lights in the village at this time, and there were large snowflakes floating in the sky. Jian Gao also turned on the flashlight and continued to walk home, walking and walking, Jian Gao suddenly said "ah", because under the illumination of the flashlight, a series of footprints appeared on the road ahead, and this footprint Jian Gao was too familiar, Jian Gao secretly screamed, "Not good!" "The monster has entered the village.
Jian Gao didn't dare to think about it, he pulled out his military thorn and quickly followed the monster's footsteps, but the more nervous Jian Gao's heart became as he ran, because the direction of this series of footprints was the direction of his house. Jane Gao ran less than fifty meters away from his home, and he noticed a few flashlights in front of him, and at the same time he heard a familiar voice.
"Rabbit cub, see if Lao Tzu doesn't catch you, brothers will beat me!" It was He Erleng's voice, and at the same time, several voices echoed it.
As soon as Jian Gao heard it, he knew that something big was going to happen, Jian Gao couldn't care so much, and his intuition told him that He Erleng was in danger for them. Wearing a big leather jacket was too bulky, Jian Gao desperately took off the big leather jacket, held a flashlight in one hand, and ran quickly towards the place of the incident with a military thorn in the other, and shouted as he ran, "Brother Erleng, you run!" ”
But it was already late, and as soon as Jian Gao's voice fell, he heard a heart-rending scream from the front, followed by another scream......
When Jian Gao came to the door of his neighbor He Erleng's house, he saw three or four people lying in the courtyard, each with blood on their bodies, and the monster was riding on one of them and biting indiscriminately.
At this time, the monster's back was facing Jian Gao, Jian Gao was really anxious, he couldn't care about anything else, he didn't say anything and quickly rushed to the monster, he took a few steps to the monster's back, jumped up and stabbed at the monster, this army stabbed down, and the blade of more than ten centimeters completely pierced the monster's back.
But the monster didn't seem to feel much pain, and continued to bite the man underneath. Jian Gao saw that this knife did not play a role, so he pulled out the general stab and stabbed it again, this knife pierced the monster's shoulder, because Jian Gao used too much force, the tip of the knife passed through the monster's shoulder, at this time the monster saw the exposed knife tip, which let go of the person below, and at the same time threw one arm back hard, Jian Gao was defenseless at this time, and was hit out by this arm, this time the force was really not light, and directly knocked Jian Gao out two or three meters away, Jian Gao also fell heavily to the ground, And the thorn was still on the monster's shoulder.
At this time, many of the surrounding homes were lit up, and some people shouted out, the monster was going to directly attack Jian Gao, who had fallen to the ground, but he seemed to see the camera on Jian Gao's chest, it looked around, and suddenly rushed out of the courtyard, and disappeared after a while.
At this time, Jian Gao didn't know anything because his head touched the stake of the firewood pile when he landed.
When Jian Gao woke up again, he was already on the hospital bed, he opened his eyes and saw that his parents and some people were at the bedside, and there was a person in the middle of the crowd who was wrapped in gauze like a dumpling, standing there on crutches.
"Are you awake?" The mother beside her said with tears in her eyes.
The father who was standing hurriedly said: "Look at what you are crying, the doctor has said that it is a slight concussion." ”
At this time, the "zongzi" on crutches also came over, held Jian Gao's hand, and said excitedly: "Suozhu, you saved my brother's life!" ”
Only then did Jian Gao see that this person was his neighbor He Erleng.
Jian Gao sat up on the bed, he just felt that his head was a little heavy, and nothing else. He asked his mother how long he had been asleep, and she told him that he had slept for more than ten hours.
At this time, Director Zhang and another person in a police uniform also came over, and they wanted to make an interrogation record of Jian Gao, the person in the police uniform was Gu Zhiwu, the deputy captain of the county criminal police team, because there was a murder last night.
Back to last night, the conversation was divided into two ends......
He Erleng gathered four or five stunned boys, bound to catch the thief who plagued the poultry. He Erleng is more than Chinese New Year's Eve years old today, his parents died a few years ago, he got married more than ten years ago because of his love of gambling, his daughter-in-law also divorced him last year, and returned to his parents' house with his children, and now He Erleng has become a loner. But he also thinks it's good, uninhibited.
Although He Erleng likes gambling, he is righteous and has good gambling products, so he has many friends. Today he gathered a few people to drink at his house at night, with the purpose of "catching thieves" at night.
After a few people were full of wine and food, their hands itched again, so they started playing poker, and tonight He Erleng's luck was not bad, and he won more than 1,000 yuan. They played until almost two o'clock in the middle of the night and were sleepy, and those people all said that there should be no movement tonight, let's sleep, and said that they would continue to "catch" tomorrow, and coaxed that Brother Erleng won so much money today, and tomorrow I have to invite everyone to drink and continue to play at night. He Erleng also smiled and said yes.
Because he was alone in He Erleng's house, these people stayed in his house. Several people were sleeping on the big kang in his house, and just as everyone was about to fall asleep in a daze, there was movement outside.
He Erleng usually loves to study, can be said to be the "inventor" of the village, often help the village people improve a farm tool, this is not to "catch thieves" He also specially used cans to make a string of bells, as long as there is any living thing close to the chicken coop, the string bell will ring.
At this time, the string bell really rang, and when he heard the string bell and thought about it, He Erleng immediately sat up, and the rest of the people also heard it, and they all suddenly became energetic. These boys are itchy masters who don't fight for a few days, a few people quickly put on their shoes and went down to the ground, at the door of the house He Erleng has already prepared a pickaxe and flashlight, He Erleng has already given an "order", once the thief is caught, everyone will give him a few pickaxes first, if the beast will be slaughtered and eaten, if it is a person, after the beating, it will be sent to the police station.
Now the opportunity has come, and the "thief catch" operation will begin immediately......
