Volume 2 Xia He Chapter 16 Mr. Wu Temple (6)
The coffin in the cave rests against the stone wall. The www.biquge.info is not like the large coffin that is placed directly on the ground, and there are two large pieces of wood underneath this coffin, making it look more than a foot above the ground.
I walked slowly step by step, always on guard, for fear of touching some mechanism, some swords, guns and arrows or something to shoot out, but I didn't. When I got closer, I knocked on the lid with the back of my knife, and there were marks on the lid of the coffin. It seems that this is an ordinary coffin, and it is not like a large coffin.
I didn't dare to underestimate the enemy, so I carefully circled around the coffin and examined it carefully.
The coffin was not nailed, but it was sealed with a paper mouth. Maybe it's a long time, the paper mouth of the tung oil lime seal is a little peeling, and the black paint is also a little dull and mottled. I used the tip of the pig-killing knife to cut along the paper edge of the junction between the coffin lid and the coffin body, put the tip of the knife into the not-so-tight seam, and tentatively pressed down the handle of the knife, and the coffin lid loosened and rose up slightly.
I breathed a sigh of relief, this coffin is probably not equipped with a mechanism, at least the coffin lid can be pried open. As for whether there were poisonous arrows or something like the poison arrow hidden weapon as written in the book after opening the lid of the coffin, it is unknown.
I was scared, not to mention that now I have an injury to my left hand and have to be cautious.
But no matter how cautious you are, you have to open the lid of the coffin!
I looked at the four fingers of my left hand, which had not been wiped with the blood of the wound medicine, and pondered, and then saw the spears piled up in the corner, and suddenly had an idea.
The spears with bayonets were already rusty, so I took two of them, stabbed them into the gap in the coffin, pressed down on the butt of my left hand, and the lid of the coffin loosened and moved up, and I quickly pinned the bayonet of the other spear into the gap, and then pressed down on the butt, and so on, three or two times, the lid of the coffin was pried open, revealing a large gap, into which my little hand could be stuffed in.
I was afraid that there would be a rotten stench spilling out of it, so I had already held my breath, and after a while I took a small breath, but fortunately, there was no smell of decay.
I suppressed my curiosity, and quickly took a few more spears, and laid them horizontally on the end of the coffin with a large gap, and after a few times, the whole coffin lid was placed on the coffin body by the body of the four spears I used to support it, and it was completely separated from the coffin.
I stood at one end of the baffle, grabbed the lid with my right hand and pulled it hard, pulling the lid away from the coffin, and the other end of the coffin was completely exposed.
I quickly stood aside and looked into the coffin.
One glance made me take a big step back.
I've been through so much surprise tonight, but not as much surprise as this one.
There was a woman half-lying and half-sitting in the coffin, and there was a naked baby on top of her!
I froze, and then stepped forward to look inside the coffin.
Yes, what was revealed inside the half-opened coffin was a female corpse. A young female corpse with black hair and plain face, thin eyebrows and small mouth, and a bloodstained face. She wore a large shoulder cloth buckle jacket with broken white flowers on a blue background, and held the corpse of a small baby with no wisps in her arms.
The woman wears a hairpin in a bun and wears big earrings, and it is estimated that she is at least a few decades ago. Strangely, not only was her body still undecomposed, but she also held the corpse of a naked infant in her arms, which was also undecomposed.
Although my night vision was a little blurry, I could still see that there seemed to be blood on her face and on the baby's corpse, and there were also clumps of black black blood on the red-painted inner walls on both sides of the coffin. I can't imagine what this was all about, was it a murder? A young woman and her baby were forcibly put in a coffin and suffocated to death? What kind of grudge can be such a poisonous hand?
I shuddered, I couldn't imagine.
No wonder there is a lot of resentment here. was brutally murdered like this, and it was a mother and son, so it's strange if there is no resentment!
I was feeling something strange behind me, and I turned around in horror to catch a glimpse of a group of gray-brown insects an inch long and thicker than my thumb emerging from the cracks in the stone wall behind me, lining up on the ground, and crawling quickly towards where I stood.
This insect is called the ground flea, they have two tentacles on their heads, their bodies are soft and oval and knotty, their backs are curved, their abdomen is flattened, they crawl quickly, and they feed on decaying animals and plants. Most of them live in damp and dark places, mostly in the corners of earthen houses in the countryside, or in damp corners where they are rarely cleaned by moving, such as commode buckets and cabinets. It's usually the size of a soybean, but I've never seen it before.
I was horrified to see them getting closer and closer to me, and quickly turned around and ran towards the entrance of the stone cave. Although I am not afraid of this kind of reptiles, I have always been afraid of them, and I get goosebumps every time I see them. Especially this kind of ground flea woman, the smashed body is a pile of *** mush, fleshy, and the stomach churns when I think of it.
At this moment, there was another "quack" sound behind me, and I stood still, quickly turned around, and saw that the big toad that had escaped into the small hole appeared where I was standing just now, and stopped the group of ground fleas who were squirming quickly.
The ground flea woman seemed to be very afraid of it, hugging in a pile and stagnating, but it continued to go forward and forward, and the wriggling insect masses piled higher and higher, and finally there was a bold and unbearable back, and crawled around the insect pile from the side, and went straight to the coffin with a clear goal.
The toad seemed to be in a hurry, and kept "croaking" and roaring, predating and jumping and smashing at great speed, and in an instant, the fleas were "flying flesh and blood", **splashing everywhere.
It is said that a good man is difficult to defeat with four hands, and a tiger is difficult to stop a pack of wolves. At this time, the situation of the toad is also about the same, as more and more insects break through its defense, a few have approached the coffin, only to see it suddenly stop and swell its body, with a deafening muffled scream, a stream of urine shoots out from behind its tail, it quickly jumps around the coffin, draws a large circle on the ground with urine, and then jumps on the coffin lid, puffing out its belly and staring at the ground flea woman on the ground.
Like a firewall, the flea women gathered around the coffin after cleaning the same kind of meat slurry, but they didn't dare to cross the large circle drawn by the toad's urine.
I was stunned, my brain short-circuited for a while, and it took me a while to understand.
Since I opened the coffin, these perverted flea women noticed it and went out en masse to eat the corpse in the coffin, and the fleeing toad ignored the danger and rushed out to stop it, ignoring the danger, in order to protect the corpse.
It reminds me of a phenomenon that alcoholics have told me.
In the funeral feng shui, there are mountain-shaped veins such as "dead cow's tripe acupoint", "dog's brain case acupoint", "wooden hard spear head", "broken face Wenqu", "soil does not become soil", etc., and these mountain-shaped veins are all vicious places that form corpses, that is, "corpse raising places". The "corpse ground", also known as the "Yin corpse place", is the most terrifying, dangerous and taboo cemetery in funeral feng shui. After the body is mistakenly buried in the "corpse raising ground", its body does not decay or rot, and the soul wanders, and does not enter the reincarnation of heaven. There are two types of corpses, one that draws goblins to become zombies, and the other that inhabitants become ghost animals.
This kind of ghost animal is extremely powerful, and it is often a disaster to the world, and it is more difficult to deal with than a simple ghost and demon animal. But as long as it destroys its original body, there is no need to worry.
Obviously, this is the legendary "corpse breeding ground", and the female corpse does not become a zombie, but a hermit toad. Because of this, the toad will desperately stop the invasion of the ground flea woman, so as to save the female corpse in the coffin.
I don't know where these huge flea women were originally hiding, but they are accumulating in the cave at the moment, densely occupying most of the stone room, and my scalp is numb and frightened, and my palms holding the handle of the knife are full of sweat.
The flea woman in the confrontation stopped in front of them, but the one behind kept hugging forward, and the female corpse in the coffin was as precious as a treasure to them, and the temptation was irrepressible. In the crowd, they began to arhat, and they stacked higher and higher, and in a moment they were piled up more than a foot high in front of the coffin, and the toad on the lid of the coffin screamed again, and a pair of long legs kicked, catapulted, and smashed into the pile of ground fleas, and the ground flea women broke apart, and a few of them actually crawled around the coffin towards the place where I stood.
I was taken aback. Quickly jumped up the stone steps and stared at the disgusting flesh worms.
