I was startled and turned my head to look. The old man's eyes were cloudy, and his eyelids gradually drooped, looking drowsy.

"Let's all sleep, don't wake them up, be quiet." The old man slowly closed his eyes and muttered again.

I was stunned, what did this old man's words mean?

Who is "don't wake them up"? Could it be that the crematorium staff are all taking a nap?

Or does "they" refer to the corpses inside?

Glancing at the old man again, the other party had already made a soft snoring sound, as if he had fallen asleep.

I took a deep breath to calm my emotions down, I think I was thinking too much, this old man looked like he was talking in a dream.

I have been to this place several times, mostly to help customers solve their troubles and "send away" the deceased smoothly.

However, most of the customers who can get my hand are rich and powerful, and they often rush to burn the "first furnace" for the deceased.

There are rumors in the outside world that the first furnace every day during cremation is relatively clean and will not be mixed with other people's ashes, but in fact, this is just a false rumor.

This unreliable rumor directly caused me to come over early in the morning every time.

Under normal circumstances, it only takes an hour to finish the work. Since I never stayed too long, I certainly didn't know if the crematorium staff would rest at noon.

As for this janitor, I really hadn't noticed it before, he just looked like an ordinary person, and there was nothing eye-catching.

Xiaobai suddenly patted me on the shoulder: "Are you okay?" I don't think you're right. ”

I squeezed out a smile: "It's okay, it's because I'm too nervous and startled by this old man's dream words." ”

Xiaobai glanced at the old man with suspicious eyes, and muttered, "What kind of dream? Why didn't I hear that? ”

Xiaobai's words made my heart tighten, he didn't hear the words of the old janitor? Am I hallucinating?

"Alright, let's go in quickly, there's nothing to be afraid of at noon." Xiaobai casually urged.

I nodded, he was right, the yang energy is the most vigorous at noon, is it possible that he is still afraid of haunting?

A few steps forward, on the parking lot in front of the crematorium hall, dozens of hearses with uniform specifications and conspicuous signs were neatly placed.

About 20 meters away, I entered the hall. This is a place to receive the families of the deceased, and in addition to a few windows for check-in, there are also various funeral items such as urns and paper figurines in the hall for people to buy.

The passages on both sides of the hall lead to the morgue and the crematorium. Most of the corpses parked in the morgue are waiting to be cremated, and they will not be parked for too long.

Of course, there are also some outsiders and unclaimed corpses who will stay here for a long time, and Sun Mulan's body belongs to this category.

As soon as I stepped into the hall, I felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and the first few times I came here, the hall was always full of people.

The procession to see off the deceased has always been relatively large, and sometimes hundreds of people are crowded in the hall.

No one lined up to see off their relatives, and there were no staff in those windows, and no one could be found if they wanted to inquire about Sun Mulan's body.

"What's the situation? Why is there no one! After Xiaobai yelled a few times, no one answered.

I had a feeling of uneasiness in my heart, and unconsciously remembered the "dream words" of the old janitor, so I quickly stopped Xiaobai and didn't let him shout loudly.

"What should I do? When do they go to work? Why don't you ask the old man who is watching the gate? Xiaobai sighed.

We don't dare to stay here too long, as we would get into big trouble if we leaked our whereabouts. I wanted to do it quickly, but now it seems that the plan will never catch up with the changes.

Hearing that Xiaobai was going to look at the old man at the gate, I shook my head: "Forget it, that old man is too evil!" ”

I don't know why, when I think back to that old man, I can't even remember what he looks like, I just feel that his two "dream words" have been echoing in my head.

"Let's go over and have a look, maybe the staff will move the body."

Xiaobai's temperament was more impatient, and he walked quickly through the hall and towards the passage to the morgue. I hesitated for a moment, then followed closely behind Xiaobai.

The light in the passage was a little dim and quiet. Walking in the passage, I could only hear the footsteps and echoes of the two of us, and the atmosphere was particularly oppressive.

Walking to the door of the morgue, I instantly felt a cold chill sweeping over my body, and behind this large iron door were hundreds of freezers containing corpses.

"Anyone?" Xiaobai shouted again, and his voice was very low.

The only thing that answered him was an echo, and he reached out and tried to push the door of the morgue, and my brain was hot, and I reached out to stop him.

But at this moment, it seemed that something tripped me, and I pushed Xiaobai instead.

"Squeak......

The big iron door was easily pushed open, and a chill hit me, and I couldn't help but shiver.

At a glance, hundreds of large freezers are neatly arranged, like a coffin. The emergency lights in the morgue glow a fluorescent green glow, which is particularly eerie.

Xiaobai also shuddered, shrunk back, and his voice trembled when he spoke: "Damn, the door is open?" Would you like to go in and have a look? ”

I didn't have the heart to respond to Xiaobai's words, all I thought about was the moment I tripped just now. Looking around, there was no one around at all, how could I almost trip over?

No matter how nervous I was, I wouldn't be so bad that I would fall while walking, and I'm sure I definitely tripped over it.

Before I could answer, Xiaobai actually took a few steps forward. I came back to my senses and called out to him, "What are you doing?" Don't move! ”

It's not like I've never been in the morgue, but it's weird everywhere today, and we both need to think long and not rush in.

What's more, without the guidance of the staff, it is not a simple task to find Sun Mulan's body in hundreds of freezers.

In case Sun Mulan has been cremated, the two of us are completely uncomfortable with breaking in like this.

Xiaobai turned a deaf ear to my words and walked straight to the depths of the morgue. I felt more and more uneasy, and I wanted to rush up and pull him back first.

I ran two steps forward, and suddenly a gust of wind blew behind me, and I felt as if I was frozen, and my movements involuntarily slowed down.

"Bang!"

Suddenly turning around, the door was closed.

The light was already low, and the morgue was even darker when the door was closed.

"What's going on, why is the door closed? It's eerie, it's weird! Xiaobai complained.

I glanced at Xiaobai again, trying to respond to him, but I was horrified to find that there was another me standing next to him.

Xiaobai walked side by side with that "me", and muttered a few words from time to time.

I'm dumbfounded, what's going on?

Suddenly, the "I" turned to look at me with an eerie smile on his face.

The other party's face is really exactly the same as mine, and even the temperament exuded by his body is extremely similar to mine.

But this is not a fantasy, and the imposter is not a ghost, he is more like a living person.

I touched my face with trepidation, and for a moment, I almost thought it was my body.

But I quickly reacted, my face was still warm, and my body was flesh and blood, it was really just an impostor.

"Xiaobai, come back quickly!" At this time, I couldn't care too much about it, and shouted loudly.

The "I" frowned slightly, seemed to be a little unhappy, and whispered a few words to Xiaobai.

I noticed a momentary pause in Xiaobai's movements, but the next second he continued to walk forward, as if he didn't hear me at all.

This impostor inevitably reminds me of the Shadow, who almost tricked me into disguised as a novice.

Although I don't know what this guy in front of me wants to do, I definitely can't watch him take Xiaobai away.

I rushed forward without hesitation, trying to pull Xiaobai back. But as I rushed forward, the two of them got faster and faster.

After turning a corner, the two of them were blocked by a row of freezers, and when I caught up with them, I found that they had disappeared.

"Xiaobai, where are you? Bastard, there's a kind of coming at me, let Xiaobai go! I yelled.

As soon as the words fell, I tripped again, and I was caught off guard and tripped to the ground.

Turning my head to look, I jumped up from the ground almost instantly: "Damn, whose leg is this!" ”

The leg was sticking out of one of the freezers, looking stiff, and it certainly wasn't a living human leg.

I secretly scolded myself, this should be the body was not put away, the staff of the crematorium were too careless, how could they make such a low-level mistake?

"Squeak ......"

The freezer, which had one leg outstretched, suddenly moved, and the corpse inside seemed to crawl out.

I "groaned" in my heart, could the corpses that were about to freeze into ice also cheat the corpses?

"Squeak!"

Before I could react, there was another sound, and suddenly a cold hand grabbed my shoulder.

"Whew!" White smoke rose from my shoulder.

Looking back, I saw that the hand was retracted into the freezer, my clothes scratched, and only a shallow scar on my shoulder.

"Squeak ......"

The freezer was getting louder and louder, first the one with one leg outstretched shook violently.

Then all the freezers in my neighborhood moved, and eventually it spread to the entire morgue.

This is the rhythm to be surrounded by corpses? I felt a deep sense of powerlessness in my heart, and I panicked for a while.

I took out the copper coin sword, and I was worried that although the effect of the copper coin sword to drive away evil spirits and avoid evil was good, it did not have much effect on the corpse.

I don't want to play the scene I did last time, when the coin sword stabbed against the stiff corpse would definitely fall apart again.

There was a "squeak" sound in all directions, and many freezers had already opened the cracks, sticking out one hand after another.

The threat of death hung over my heart, and I retreated in my heart, if I hadn't worried about Xiaobai's safety, I would have fled long ago.

Subconsciously glanced in the direction of the gate, my heart sank to the bottom, and the gate disappeared! What should have been a gate has become a wall!

"Xiaobai, where are you?" I yelled in despair.

"Ahem......" Suddenly, a coughing sound came from behind.

As I passed, I saw a pair of glowing green eyes staring at me in the darkness.

"Didn't I say, be quiet, don't wake them up?"
