After that, we went out of the ravine, came to a small hill on the east side of the village, on the east and west sides of the hill there is a high and a low two hills, on the east side of the high mountain there is no grass, only at the top of the hill to build a huge courtyard, there is the ancestral house of Wang Er Mazi. The hill on the west side is low, but the slopes are lush with grass, and in the very center of this pale green area is a simple little mud house, where Ma Shenpo once lived.

In this small village, every family lives in caves, but the two houses that no one lives in are completely different architectural styles.

I looked towards the hill to the east, and the black yin aura was still there, and it was a little stronger than when I saw it yesterday.

Liang Houzai also looked at the house on the east mountain, and frowned twice: "What kind of evil corpse will have such a heavy yin qi on its body?" ”

I said, "I remember when I was in elementary school, Liu Shangang and I encountered a kind of corpse baby, and that thing carried a very heavy yin qi and resentment. The yin qi in this place is nothing compared to the corpse baby. ”

As I spoke, I inadvertently glanced at Liu Shangang's expression, when I happened to say the word "corpse baby", I saw that his face turned pale with a brush, but fortunately he only changed his face, but he did not shout to go home as in the past.

After speaking, I beckoned the two of them again: "Let's go, let's go to Ma Shenpo's house first, maybe I can find any clues." ”

Although the west hill is low, it is not easy to walk, and when we stepped on the hillside, we found that the turf on the slope was very slippery, as if it had been greased, and the slope of the hill was very steep, and we would often slide down the hill uncontrollably.

Later, Liu Shangang changed his spiked shoes, took out the trekking rope and climbing pegs, and he took the lead in the front, while climbing up, he kept hitting nails and fixing ropes on the ground. We climbed for a long time holding on to the rope made by Liu Shangang, and finally came to the door of the earth house.

It can be seen that this house has been uninhabited for a long time, the door panel of the door has been cracked, the cement platform in front of the door is also full of dust, and there is a red plastic bucket next to the door, but because no one has used it for a long time, the barrel body has become very brittle.

I tried to push the door, but it was hidden, and with a "squeak" sound, it slowly opened.

As soon as we entered the house, we could smell a very strong smell of putrefaction, and in the corner of the house there was a cupboard from which the rancid smell came from.

I pinched my nose and came to the cupboard, and opened the door with a green steel sword, and saw a dead cat lying in the cupboard, its body was highly rotten, but not rotten, and there was a small porcelain bottle on its half-rotten mouth, and several black pills were scattered near the mouth of the bottle.

Liang Houzai took out a pair of gloves from Liu Shangang's backpack, and after putting on the gloves, he carefully broke open the mouth of the cat corpse and took out the porcelain bottle.

He poured out a pill from the porcelain bottle, looked at it carefully, and said to me, "Corpse Preservation Pill, a specialty of the corpse chaser." Catnip is added to this thing, which has a great attraction to cats, but the corpse pill is very toxic, and it is estimated that this cat was poisoned when he stole the pill. ”

I said to Liang Houzai: "Now I can basically confirm that Ma Shenpo is the person who chases the corpses." ”

Liang Houzai shook his head: "But the corpse chaser has always been a woman who does not pass on to the south, Ma Shenpo, it should be a woman." ”

Nonsense, if she were a man, she would be a horse god.

I said, "Look again, if there are any other clues." ”

As I spoke, I rummaged through the room, Liang Houzai and Liu Shangang were not idle, I mainly rummaged around the earthen kang, and the two of them focused on the other two cupboards in the house.

I tossed around for most of the day, and finally found a small box of unused cinnabar in the corner of the kang pot. Liang Houzai found a soul bell, which is also a commonly used prop for corpse chasers.

Liu Shangang rummaged in the cupboard in the west corner of the house for a long time, and finally took out a brown leather notebook from the cabinet, which was full of dense small characters.

I briefly looked at the contents of the record, and at first glance, it looked like a diary, but on closer inspection, it looked like some kind of scientific record.

On June 14, 2001, it was cloudy. The old house is full of yin, and in the cloudy season, the intensity of the yin is beyond imagination.

July 12, 2001, noon, sunny. The east wind blew outside the village, and the yin in the house dissipated, and it seemed to be afraid of the wind.

September 2, 2001, sub-hour, sunny. The Bon Festival, the Chinese Ghost Festival or the Midyear Festival, has no wind for a day, and the yin in the house has not changed.

……

The book is full of similar content, and it can be seen from the date that the person who wrote this note has been silently observing Wang Er Mazi's old house since 1999, and there are a lot of Japanese in the note, which seems to indicate that this observer is an Oriental.

I was flipping through the notebook, and Liu Shangang asked me on the side: "This is written by a little devil?" ”

I said, "Probably, but most of the descriptions in this book are in Chinese, which makes me a little incomprehensible." ”

At this time, Liang Houzai said on the side: "Maybe that person made such a note just to show a certain Chinese person." ”

As he spoke, I had already turned to the last page.

On this page, there is only a brief note: "It's out, I have to go in, I'm sure I'll survive." ”

The three of us looked at the last record, and we all had inexplicable expressions on our faces.

This record seems to be sending some kind of message to someone. It's out, what does it mean here?

I closed the cover and asked Liang Houzai: "Before, Zhang Laohan said, when did Ma Shenpo die?" ”

Liang Houzai thought about it and responded to me: "He didn't say it at all. ”

I sighed and stuffed the leather notebook into Liu Shangang's backpack.

Originally, I thought that this business was simply to suppress a few evil corpses, but I didn't expect that there would be a wave of corpses first, and now there are Orientals, and things seem to be becoming more and more troublesome.

I walked out of the house and looked at the east mountain twice, the yin qi was still entrenched above the house, but under the light of the bright sun, the yin qi was already very thin at this time.

Liang Houzai came out after me, he pinched a corpse preservation pill, held it up in the sunlight and looked at it carefully, then sighed, and said: "It seems that Ma Shenpo has not obtained the true inheritance of the corpse chaser, this pill has a lot of impurities in it, even if it is a beginner corpse chaser, it will not be able to practice the corpse chaser like this." ”

I said, "Let's go to the old mansion and take a look, see that the yin qi above the house is not too strong, and at best there is a flying zombie hidden in the house, which is not too troublesome to deal with." Liu Shangang, did you bring a red rope? ”

Liu Shangang came out of the house like a gust of wind, and while saying "yes", he pulled out a red thread from the side bag.

I took the red thread, tied a yang lock on Liu Shangang's wrist, and then led the two of them down the hill along the rope and climbed the dirt mountain to the east.

When I came to the gate of the house, I saw a few big red characters written on the courtyard wall next to the door, "Do not enter the living", and there was a line of Japanese language annotations under this line.

Liang Houzai wiped his fingers lightly on the row of red characters, and immediately wiped the word "sheng" on "shengren" a little blurred, and a thin layer of paint was stained on his thumb.

He turned to me and said, "It didn't take long to brush it up." ”

I saw a paint bucket in the corner, some of the paint in the bucket had dried up, apparently it had been sitting for a long time, and then I tried to touch the wall again.

The climate was very dry, but the walls were so damp that I touched them and rubbed the droplets all over my hands.

Liang Houzai also said to me at this time: "But this place is very damp, and it is possible that the paint has been applied for a long time, but it has not dried out." ”

I nodded at him and said I felt the same way.

In fact, when I saw the paint bucket in front of the door, I remembered the plastic bucket in front of Ma Shenpo's house, judging from the fragility of the plastic bucket, it should have been unattended for a long time, which seems to mean that no one has been to Ma Shenpo's house for a long time.

But if I'm not mistaken, the penultimate entry in the leather notebook must have been written a week before we were here.

Come to think of it, it seems a bit unreasonable in terms of time. If it is said that after Ma Shenpo's hut was abandoned, the widow sneaked in there again, and unknowingly surveyed the ancestral house of Wang Er Mazi, but even so, there would be at least traces of him in the house.

I was thinking about this in my heart, and the yin qi in the house suddenly became a little thicker, and it seemed that the source of the yin qi was slightly agitated.

To be honest, no matter how restless Yin Qi is at this level, it won't have any effect on Liang Houzai and me. I tried to push the door, but it was locked, and there were some obstacles on top of it, and I couldn't push it open.

I looked at the door, shook my head, and said to Liang Houzai and Liu Shangang, "It seems that I can only go through the wall to enter." Liu Shangang, after you enter the house, you must not speak, there is a lot of yin in it. ”

After saying that, I took a few steps back, and then rushed forward and climbed the wall in three steps, and Liang Houzai and Liu Shangang also followed me into the house.

When the two of them landed, they were very light, only me, and as soon as their feet landed, they stirred up a large handful of dust, and there was a heavy noise.

Liang Houzai looked at me helplessly, and I ignored him.

The ancestral house of Wang Er Mazi is very similar to the ancestral hall of the old Huang family in the northeast, it is also the kind of courtyard with three entrances and three exits, the instrument door faces south, after entering the instrument door, it is a huge courtyard as far as the eye can see, the east and west wings, and the direction of the north is the lobby, the back bedroom and the backyard.

It's just that compared with the ancestral hall of the old Huang family in the northeast, this ancestral house is obviously in disrepair, and as far as I can see, the main hall and the two wings are very damaged, and a lot of weeds have grown on the roof of the tiles that are scattered, and all the windows are covered with thick black cloth.

I walked straight into the nearest room, and as soon as I opened the door, I smelled a thick smell of corpses.
