Chapter 44: The Cave of the Dead
"Hurry up, let's go quickly, don't wake that person up, it's going to be seen again and again."
A man's eager voice faintly came down to the cellar with the moonlight, Gu Changqing heard this voice, and said to Xie Ling, "Let's hurry up." ”
Xie Ling looked at him innocently, "It's so high, I can't go up!" ”
Gu Changqing had a cold face and half-squatted, "Come up." ”
Then, with the force of his two arms, Xie Ling was raised.
Xie Ling wanted to laugh, but he was afraid of being blinded again, so he simply held back, waiting for Gu Changqing to jump up by himself, and the two of them quickly disappeared in the dark!
At the same time, the man who had just spoken had begun to approach, and they looked at the door of the cellar that had been exposed, and said suspiciously, "Is this fucking killing again?" It's really coming one after another. ”
Another man shrunk his neck and waved his hands and said, "Whatever, we'll solve ours, a few of them will go back one by one, get it quickly, this day is really freezing to death." ”
"Yes, yes, hurry up, deal with it, go back quickly, I really can't come out this night."
After the two of them entered, Xie Ling secretly asked, "Who is that dead?" ”
"Little two in the stables." After saying that, he felt that something was wrong and added, "The previous one." ”
"Him?" Xie Ling asked in surprise. "How did he die?"
"You ask me about this, should I go and ask him for you?" Gu Changqing retorted.
Xie Ling snorted coldly, and said in his heart, isn't that what I said, as for this? So he was quite dissatisfied and said, "Xiao Er is dead, why is it put in this cellar, there is still wine and vegetables in it." How else do the guests eat? ”
After saying that, I couldn't control my gagging.
"I guess I haven't had time to deal with it yet, okay, those two people should come out." Gu Changqing replied.
At this time, two people in the vegetable cellar slowly came out carrying the corpse, and one of them complained, "You say, this person, you just have to do your job well, just do your job, you have to be curious to see what secrets, this time you still look at it, don't you want to see it?" ”
"Hey, you said he saw something and was killed like this." Another asked.
"You want to know? I don't want to know, how many more days do I want to live? The personal interface said.
"You say, let's just do this job, thankless, and deal with all this stuff all day long. I don't necessarily want to reuse us in the future. Another person continued to complain and said, "You said that person today is really the county magistrate?" He's not here to check this, is he? We have to pay attention, don't arrest us when the time comes. ”
"I don't think you want to live anymore? Walk fast, walk fast. The man who spoke first urged, "This has been heard, and we have to walk out sideways." ”
The two of them then fell silent and quickened their pace.
They carried the dead shopkeeper briskly to the back door.
Gu Changqing waved his hand, and Xie Ling, who was walking behind, also stopped.
The two men were putting the shopkeeper into a parked carriage at this time, and the shopkeeper was left behind by them like a pile of cabbage.
Then, taking advantage of the hazy moonlight, he went straight into the distance.
Fortunately, these two people were not in a hurry, Gu Changqing and Xie Ling secretly followed out, and followed them all the way to a hillside.
The two of them were tired and panting, lying in the grass not far away. I saw that the two people dragged the shopkeeper down and threw him on the ground, groping around and not knowing what to do, and after a while, he got up again and lifted the shopkeeper up again and threw it in.
Gu Changqing and the others were afraid of startling the snake, so they hid far away, and the sky was very dark, so they couldn't see anything clearly on their side, and there could only be a vague shadow.
"What do you think they're doing?" Xie Ling asked.
"We'll know when they're gone."
After the two people dealt with the shopkeeper, they lay on the ground and groped for something, then got up completely and drove away.
The hillside was quiet at night, and there was no superfluous sound at all.
"Let's go." Seeing the backs of the two people disappear, Gu Changqing got up and said.
Gu Changqing and Xie Ling walked a distance of more than twenty steps, and they arrived at the place where the two of them were groping.
They also learned from the two men to squat down and start digging on the ground in the moonlight.
"Huh? Help me? ”
Gu Changqing didn't notice it, and Xie Ling disappeared.
There was only one sentence left, echoing on the empty hillside.
The night is like diluted ink sprinkled on the entire silent hillside, like silver in the pockets of the poor, dotted with stars.
However, this calm hillside was pierced by Xie Ling's desolate cry for help.
Gu Changqing heard the voice and looked back, Xie Ling's figure had already disappeared.
He shouted twice, but there was no answer, and then he panicked, thinking that in the barren mountains and mountains in the middle of the night, anything could happen.
At this time, Xie Lingnuonuo's voice was faintly heard.
"Gu Changqing, I'm here."
The voice is quiet and a little muffled.
Gu Changqing shouted, "Where is it!" ”
"I'm here, here." This time, Xie Ling's voice was much louder, and he could hear a hoarse shout.
Gu Changqing listened to the direction of the voice, and searched for a while in the dark night before he saw the culprit who made Xie Ling like this.
It was a small hole, and the entrance was rudimentary, with only a little hay spread on it.
He lay on the ground and shouted into the cave, and Xie Ling struggled to get up and answered.
"It's me, pull me up."
Gu Changqing took out the fire fold and found something casually and lit the fire, and the hillside lit up at this time.
But the cave was still too dark, and there was still a little distance from the entrance of the cave when she stretched out her hand, and she struggled to grab Gu Changqing's hand for a long time, and Xie Ling, who had just stood up, accidentally fell back again.
She groaned, her hands were on the ground and she wanted to stand up, but she inadvertently touched something, curious she groped carefully, and as a result, she was so frightened that she jumped up directly, but the soles of her feet suddenly stepped on something, which made her panic.
"Gu Changqing, come down, come down." Xie Ling's voice was still crying, so frightened that she didn't dare to move.
Hearing Xie Ling's voice, Gu Changqing jumped down directly without the slightest hesitation.
I didn't know what I stepped on, so I stumbled a little.
"Where are you?" It was dark inside, and nothing could be seen, and Xie Ling could only hear the sound of him jumping down.
"I'm here!"
"Don't move." Gu Changqing shouted, "I think something is wrong here, don't move yet." ”
As he spoke, he took out the fire fold and blew out the light of the fire, and faintly saw Xie Ling standing next to him not far from him.
He crouched down again and shone on the ground, and although the light was not great, he could see it almost as well.
This cave is a corpse cave.
There were ten corpses large and small, surrounded by him. The two people who were extremely shocked, both of them forgot their words and forgot to be afraid.
Silence is infinitely amplified in the darkness, and fear is replaced by anger.
