Chapter 50: The Coffin and the Woman

The last rays of light on the horizon slipped down from the trees on the hill and shone faintly into the hole.

The entrance to the cave is located halfway up the mountain, and if it is daytime, it is the best place to cool off under the scorching sun.

But at this time, it is the time of day and night, the sunlight in the sky is slowly being drained by the surrounding darkness, and the night insects in the grass are waking up.

Through this grass, we saw and discovered the reason for the tension in the East, which was a blood-red coffin on the ground.

It looked like a new coffin, the lid was fine, but it was not nailed, and a gust of wind blew against the coffin, and a few leaves fell on it.

When we walked over and saw this coffin, we looked at each other, and from each other's eyes, we could see strange looks, and the reason was obvious, because there was no coffin found in the tomb, but we didn't want to leave the tomb, but found the coffin.

Could it be that someone came to the tomb one step ahead of us and dug up this coffin, but when we looked around, there was no one around.

Could it be that this coffin has been dug up for a long time, or it was dug up a long time ago, but after opening the coffin, it was attacked by the corpse inside, or it was scared away by a mountain ghost.

But this is not right, if this is the case, how long has the coffin been here, and no one cares, why is there no trace of sunburn on the coffin?

However, I immediately changed my mind and looked again, is it possible that the coffin was not found from the tomb at all?

Liu Ran answered this question for me, she said, "There is a damp smell on the coffin, it should be placed here for a short time, although the red on it looks like paint, but this is absolutely impossible to come from the outside world, and it can't be a new coffin, and there is ......"

As he spoke, Liu Ran pointed to a string of shoe prints next to the coffin, "Someone must have been here!" ”

Following her guidance, I realized that there was indeed a string of shoe prints not far from the coffin, but after I looked at it a few times, I felt even more strange, because the shoe prints were only one person, and only those who came but did not leave.

Seeing this, we immediately took a few steps back nervously, looked at the coffin vigilantly, and looked at a few places nearby, except for the previous footprints, there were no other footprints.

A coffin that may have been dug up from the tomb, coupled with a string of mysterious shoe prints, could it be that any tomb robber would steal the coffin out and leave it for himself as a resting place?

Not to mention how he brought out this coffin, let's just say that this string of shoe prints is strange enough, no matter whose it is, it will come and go.

We looked at each other, and finally everyone looked at me in unison, meaning that I should go over and have a look.

I frowned, pulled out the dagger in my backpack, and motioned for them to keep an eye on my safety and not to jump out of the coffin, and they slipped away.

After slowly walking back in, I carefully pushed the lid from the end of the coffin.

Seeing me doing this, Dongfang glanced at me and whispered, "You move quickly!" ”

I shrugged my shoulders and said that if I pushed from the end of the coffin, in case the corpse inside was cheating, it should be the top of my head that moved first, even if my feet came back to life first, it was a big deal to be kicked so that I would not be bitten, and there was a possibility of death.

Slowly, the coffin was pushed open along a gap, and a silk cloth appeared under the coffin, and when the light poured in, I thought I would see a pair of rancid and blackened feet, or even two black and yellow foot bones, but to my surprise, it was a pair of feet wearing black sneakers.

Ah! It doesn't look like a coffin dug out of an ancient tomb at all! Otherwise, how could the deceased wear such shoes?

I immediately turned around and beckoned them to come and have a look.

Dongfang was also a little surprised when he saw the shoes, and immediately pushed the entire coffin lid open, but the person who appeared in front of us was even more surprised than when we saw a thousand-year-old corpse.

To be honest, even if the ancient corpse can suddenly come back to life, we can accept it, but what we didn't expect was something else.

The person lying in the coffin turned out to be Chen Haidong, the person who went down to the grave with us.

The moment I saw this person, I instinctively thought of a possibility, maybe the coffin was dug up by him.

Or maybe the old bell dug it up, and after opening the coffin, he found that it was him, and then abandoned him and went down to look for the treasure.

Dongfang, which I saw with me, had a different idea, "Could it be that there is something strange about this coffin, when Chen Haidong stole the coffin from the tomb, opened it, was attacked by the contents inside, and was locked inside." ”

Liu Ran didn't speak, but kept staring at the coffin, and then glanced a few times along the string of shoe prints.

"Drag his shoes off and compare them to the marks on the ground!" Liu Ran said and began to drag his shoes, but as soon as he untied his shoes, he heard a voice.

"Long time no see, my friend!"

It was a woman's voice, and the moment I heard it, a person immediately appeared in my mind, and it perfectly matched this voice to form a long-lost name.

This name, under this circumstance, is so abrupt, as if it is a day and a place, in the opposite direction.

But when I looked up at her, there was a voice in my heart, confirming a fact over and over again.

"Who are you, did you do all this?" Dongfang asked coldly, I don't know whether to let Chen Haidong lie here or prepare this coffin.

"I don't know, maybe, I think someone knows my condition better than I do!"

"Who?"

I looked at her and listened to her voice from far to near, and I didn't know how she could, how could she possibly appear in such a form.

The coffin, the friends, and the her, all of this is just too much to understand.

"How did you end up here?" Eventually, I asked.

Seeing me say this, the two of them looked at me again, but this time I really didn't know how to explain my relationship with this woman to them, because there were a lot of mysteries in front of me.

"What, do you think it's a good coincidence?" As she spoke, she walked across the coffin and looked me in the eye.

"I ......" I didn't know how to explain it, so I threw the question back on.

She is my college classmate, the most mysterious person in my circle of friends, I still remember her name, no, maybe it's just a nickname - Qianqian.

She didn't perfunctory me this time, but replied positively, "Come to you for a change,"

"For what?"

"I think, you came from below, you give me what you found, and I will return to you what I borrowed, how about it, it's fair!"

Hearing her say this, I was even more curious about her origin, but after thinking about it, I didn't know how to ask again, so I was ready to answer her.

"I don't know what you're referring to, we didn't bring anything out!"

"Really?" Qianqian smiled slightly and continued, "Then let me introduce myself again!" The things I took from you, I thought it was a password to unlock me, but now I realize it's more of a puzzle, and God knows why I know what you're thinking about. ”

"I thought that would save me, but do you know, that voice still hasn't left, she will come every night as scheduled, I don't know where I've been with my sleeping body, I don't know what I've done, but when I wake up the next day and see the wounds on my body, I find that the door lock has been broken, and even the large blood stains found on the floor, and the corpses wrapped in cardboard boxes, all make me scared and at a loss?"

She slowly closed her eyes, then opened them again, and looked back at the sunset in the sky, "I can occasionally hear some voices, those voices are you who say, you say that you are a prophet, you say the story of the monastery, you tell me that there are three people who can change all this, you say that the karmic fire will eventually be extinguished, and ...... Those that are arranged, the best time and place, and what you will do later and what kind of person you will become. ”

"But do you know? It's completely irrelevant, why do you know this, why do you tell me, what are the answers, and what are the causes of these mysteries? ”

She kept talking, and I listened to it for a while, but I still didn't seem to understand, and I could barely understand that we had made a swap of our memories, and when I found those memories of hers, she would inherit my memories as well.

Strangely enough, her memory was only a little bit, and I quickly forgot about it, and it didn't show up since.

But why is it that she is able to find my memories so often, and what she just said, even I don't know what they are?

It made me feel like my mind was in a mess, but I didn't know how to ask, I had to ask her how she could remember so many of her memories.

Finally, she stopped, put her hands on the coffin, and with her final answer, put an end to the complaints and incomplete memories, "I came here because of your memory, and there is another person who told me that I could find you and make such a deal with you when I came here. ”

After listening to her rambling for a long time, Liu Ran finally couldn't help but ask, "What's going on with the coffin?" ”

Qianqian shook her head, "I don't know, maybe another one I did, maybe the one who told me he was here would know." ”

"Who's that guy?"

She shook her head again, "If I had known his name, I would have gone to him a long time ago, because he knew everything—everything in the world!" Well, there's no time, she should show up after dark. Qin Huai, do you agree or not?"

I was a little helpless, "But we really don't have the thing you said, what are we going to exchange for you?" ”

"Impossible!" Qianqian's face changed suddenly, and after the light in the sky gradually faded, she gradually became another person, another person who even felt strange to her.

"Am I looking for you? It's been a long time, classmate Qin Huai! The only look of surprise in his eyes was gone, and what was left was another her who was set off by the darkness.

In the dark, she slowly stretched out her hand into the coffin and reached for the pistol on Chen Haidong's body.

"Stop!" Liu Ran shouted loudly and lifted Chen Haidong in the coffin first.

Qianqian looked at her and sneered, "It seems that there is no way to continue trading, so we will be separated for a while!" ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw her take half a step back, and then stretched out her hand to the bottom of the coffin, and suddenly exerted force, and turned the entire coffin over.

I can't believe that such a thin, even sickly girl can burst out with such a powerful force, you must know that this coffin is at least a hundred or ten pounds!
