Chapter 6: The Face of a Corpse
The thing was on An Fuqiang's corpse. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info What they are looking for is under An Fuqiang's corpse.
In fact, they didn't see An Fuqiang's face until this time, and it was only the body shape and clothes that helped them make judgments. The clothes on the chest and abdomen of the corpse had long since become a mess of rags, and the hairless monkey was chirping and eating tissues and organs of different densities soaked in red liquid, and its two unbelievably huge pupils were sometimes upward and sometimes downward, but they never turned to the left or right.
Shi Yuan didn't dare to come out, and continued to listen to the sounds around him while thinking about countermeasures.
That thing, if it's really a hairless monkey, is at best a creature with faster movements and sharper teeth. But if that ...... Not a living thing?
The light grew dimmer, and the moon struggled to cast a little bit of white light from behind the dark clouds, as if to paint the outline of the thing. In this abnormal night, everything was like a still life in a black and white painting, except for the shocking red that was still dripping from the mouth and paws of the strange thing.
What to do? Wait for it to finish eating? How do you finish eating? How much does that thing eat?
Shi Yuan couldn't answer his own questions, and he knew they had to do something.
Luo Yasen tightened his right grip on the pointed shovel and signaled to Shi Yuan with his left hand that he would walk around the other end of the warehouse to attract the object's attention. Before Shi Yuan could object, Luo Yasen had already run away quickly but silently.
Shi Yuan did not follow. He looked at the back of Royasen running away, and then turned back again, staring at the thing that was still tearing at the corpse. The line between his position and the corpse was not parallel to the edge at the front of the warehouse, but at an angle, and he tried to hide himself as much as possible through the corner of the warehouse. Here, he could barely see that thing.
The hairless monkey seemed to be eating intently, not even noticing that a pair of eyes were peering at it not far away. It doesn't squint, its movements are smooth, and the sound of chewing gives off an eerie but harmonious rhythm.
It didn't find me.
It probably didn't notice me......
Is it really not discovering me, or is it pretending not to be? Or does it simply not care if there's anyone around?
Shi Yuan's cold sweat trickled down unconsciously, and he suddenly felt like a marionette, and it was the hairless monkey that was carrying the thread, it easily grabbed his nerves without doing anything, and it could change the object of food at any time as long as it wanted.
The clouds did not continue to thicken. If it was daytime, Shi Yuan would see white clouds in the shape of fish scales. However, now that the sky was very dark, even if Shi Yuan raised his head, he would only see a black canopy that seemed to be shattered.
Shi couldn't see Luo Yasen from afar, he didn't know where he went. However, he felt like he heard a clear sound of stones falling to the ground. He knew that it was Luo Yasen who was trying to make a noise and turn the tiger away from the mountain.
The hairless monkey did not react, ignoring the sound of the stones falling to the ground.
The sound of larger stones was heard, this time hitting not the ground, but the walls.
The thing still didn't respond. It continued to tear and gobble.
After more than twenty seconds, a deafening loud sound suddenly sounded, like thunder on the ground, and Shi Yuan's heart was shaken a little.
There was a pause in the rhythm of the hairless monkey's eating, the muscles of its face, if it could be called muscles, twitched, and its two huge eyes turned to the right.
Shi couldn't see Luo Yasen from afar, and his vision was blocked by the warehouse. But he believes that Royasen can't be so stupid.
It moved, and began to slowly move its body to the right.
And in the next moment, it had already run twenty meters away, and the speed was far beyond Shi Yuan's imagination, but now he didn't have time to be surprised.
The thing had disappeared at the end of the warehouse, and Shi Yuan quickly ran to the corpse, wanting to check if there was anything on the ground below the corpse. However, his attention was drawn to the corpse's head.
He still couldn't see the corpse's face. Or rather, he couldn't see the full face of the corpse.
The corpse's eyes and mouth were covered by a black cloth, and its nose was exposed, and it didn't look unusual.
How could anyone cover his eyes and mouth with a cloth?
Shi Yuan was a little puzzled. He subconsciously reached out and wanted to remove the cloth from the corpse's face.
Suddenly, a strange scream was heard, sounding creepy.
It's that hairless monkey! It ran back again!
Shi Yuan was so shocked that he didn't care to check the corpse anymore, so he got up in a panic and ran behind the wall.
The hairless monkey did not chase him, but lay down on the corpse again and continued its dinner.
Damn, missed the opportunity.
Shi Yuan thought with annoyance.
The hairless monkey grabbed it and put it in its mouth, and suddenly looked at Shi Yuan, half of its two eyes protruded out of the sockets, as if they were turning, and the strange and inexplicable appearance made Shi Yuan feel a chill in his back.
The monster let out a strange scream, and its two front paws grabbed the corpse's arm and dragged it off the distance. In the dragging, the cloth on the corpse's face fell, and Shi Yuan finally saw what the eyes and mouth that were originally covered looked like.
Shi Yuan immediately shook his head and froze.
The monster had a lot of strength, and it was effortless to pull such a corpse much larger than its size. In the blink of an eye, it had disappeared at the end of the far corner of the warehouse.
Shi Yuan settled down and walked to the place where the corpse had been again.
"If he dies, look for clues under his body."
Below, underground?
Shi Yuan quickly took out a short-handled shovel from his backpack and began to dig the soil.
One time. Two clicks.
Where did Royassin go?
Three times. Everywhere.
Did the monster see him?
Five down. Six down.
Why hasn't he come back yet?
The soil here is very hard, and there are many small rocks in the soil. With each spade, a screeching scraping sound is heard.
Finally, Shi Yuan felt that the shovel had touched something different from dirt and small stones.
A glass bottle containing a rolled-up piece of paper.
Shi Yuan didn't care about it, and slowly opened it to check the contents inside. He held the glass bottle in his hand and looked around nervously, and he saw that Royasen was running from the direction where the monster had disappeared.
Shi Yuan shook the glass bottle at Luo Yasen, and made another gesture, signaling him to leave here as soon as possible.
Outside, Liu Tong and Chen Weijie were already anxious.
When they finally rushed out of the area, Liu's tense nerves relaxed slightly.
The rolled up piece of paper finally presented its contents in front of the eyes of the four people.
"The nightmare of the ancient mansion is not over yet, that door will devour an uncomplicated girl, half a year away from adulthood, and the key to solving the mystery is under the letter C." (To be continued.) )
