"Gollum......" I swallowed and foamed.

What the hell is this place and why are there so many coffins? The whole room looked very gloomy, and I unconsciously took two steps back, not daring to enter the house.

Suddenly, my eyes flickered, and something seemed to flash in front of me.

My heart was even more nervous, and my little heart was beating so violently that it almost jumped out of my throat. It was so quiet that I could hear my own heartbeat clearly.

"Yes...... Anyone? I plucked up the courage to ask again.

Although I don't know what kind of place this is, I still hope that someone can respond to me, even if it is not Tian Jianjun and Zhang Yang and others, as long as there is a big living person, I can be more stable in my heart.

But as soon as I said that, I regretted it a little, the atmosphere here was so weird, and my nerves were tense. I don't know if someone would be frightened if someone did burst out.

I tried to take a deep breath to calm myself down, so I don't panic. Grandpa said that this place is dangerous and I have to be cautious.

After calming down a bit, I found myself shivering all over, and I didn't know if it was too scared or because it was so cold.

After carefully examining the furnishings in the room, I couldn't help but frown slightly. In the whole room, except for the dozen or so coffins, there was hardly any open space.

Only a bed and a small table were placed in one corner of the room, and it looked like someone had lived there. The bed seemed to be a little old, and the quilt was old, and I wasn't really sure if anyone lived here.

By the way, I came here from the depths of the morgue in a bizarre way. This place has nothing to do with the morgue, and the word "Yizhuang" unconsciously popped up in my mind.

The ancient concept of clan is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the prosperity of the whole family is greater than the sky. However, some large families have flourishing branches and branches, and it is inevitable that there will be a gap between the rich and the poor.

The powerful people in the family will create Yizhuang, sympathize with the clansmen with their own strength, and solve the problem of food and clothing for some people with family ties.

Those poor people in the family who do not have enough to eat can go to Yizhuang regularly to receive rations and other benefits, and the younger generations who are diligent and motivated can also get the opportunity to go to school. Even the funeral expenses after death can be collected at Yizhuang.

This practice was conducive to the development and consolidation of the entire family, and was also praised and supported by the imperial court, which was basically similar to today's hospices and other charities.

Not only large families, but also many villages and towns gradually established Yizhuang with the support of the imperial court, and would adopt the local elderly and children who were lonely and helpless.

With the development of the times, the role of Yizhuang has changed greatly. Yizhuang is mainly aimed at those who are poor, and the funeral of these people after death has become a big problem.

Yizhuang gradually became the main place to deal with funerals, and coffins and corpses were also more common to park in Yizhuang, similar to today's funeral parlors and morgues.

It has been a tradition for thousands of years that fallen leaves return to their roots and settle in the soil. For some people who have died in a foreign land, before the family of the deceased is fully prepared to transfer the deceased back to their hometown, Yizhuang also allows the coffin or skeleton to be placed temporarily and uniformly.

In modern times, the word "Yizhuang" basically refers to the place where the coffin is kept. The place where so many coffins can be parked is estimated to be only Yizhuang.

By this time, the village had almost completely disappeared, and funeral homes and hospital morgues could temporarily store corpses. As for coffins, they are almost extinct in the city with the promotion of the cremation policy.

Looking up at the black plaque on the door, the two words on it really looked more and more like the traditional word "Yizhuang".

Just then, something shook in front of my eyes. My heart hung again, and a shaking shadow appeared on the ground in front of me!

Judging from the shape and movement of the shadow, it seems that someone should be behind me, approaching me step by step. I froze in place, very nervous.

To be honest, I really wanted to turn my head to look at it, but my legs felt like they were pinned to the ground, and I couldn't even move my feet. My neck was also a little stiff and I didn't dare to turn my head.

After a few seconds or so, the shadow finally stopped. With a snap, a big cold hand slapped on my shoulder, and a biting chill swept over my shoulder.

I tried my best to restrain myself, but my body still didn't listen to the call, and my legs shook unexpectedly. Gently squirming my lips, I couldn't even say a word.

"Ahem......" This is the coughing sound of the person behind him, and it sounds familiar.

"I ...... I'm here to find someone. "I finally mustered up the courage to say something.

The other party let go of his hand: "I know, you are standing outside talking, don't break in without my permission." ”

This familiar sound...... It's the janitor! I twisted around and almost fell in shock, leaning against the doorframe.

That's right, when I saw it clearly, I was horrified that the old janitor appeared in front of me alive again. I didn't know what to say for a moment, and stared at him for a long time.

The old man was dressed in a blue-gray Tang suit, and he was smiling. He carried a white paper lantern in his hand, and the candles inside shone with a bright green glow.

"I have done everything your grandfather told me, and you will take the people away later." The janitor said coldly.

With that, he picked up the lantern and blew out the candle inside. I don't know if it's an illusion, but after the candle was blown out, I felt like I was a little warmer.

I nodded a little blankly: "That...... Thanks seniors, what should I do? ”

On the surface, the old janitor is a big living person, and having a shadow is one thing, and more importantly, he has breathing, which is one of the important signs of a living person.

But what about his corpse? I've seen his corpse with my own eyes before, and the corpse won't be faked, and there's no need for Zhang Yang to lie to me.

Whether he lives or dies, this kind of character deserves to be called a "senior" by me, not only because of his age and his unpredictable strength, but also because he knows my grandfather well.

"You'll ...... later" Halfway through his words, he suddenly frowned, and his face didn't look very good.

After a long silence, he sighed deeply: "That's it, you can enter the house." Open the third coffin in the first row and get inside. ”

I was shaken and let me into the coffin? What's going on, what am I doing in the coffin when I'm idle, could it be that he wants to kill me?

"Go ahead!" Without waiting for me to ask, he reached out and patted me on the forehead.

Another chill invaded my body, and I was a thriller, and my mind became clearer. I was scared and didn't dare to go into the house, but why didn't my body obey?

"Senior, what are you going to do?" I yelled.

As I shouted, my feet had already stepped out, slowly walking towards the rows of coffins. My body seemed to be manipulated by something, and no matter how much I struggled, it didn't work.

"Ahem...... It's all your grandfather's orders. The old janitor said this.

I turned my head to look at him in horror and kept pleading, but he always looked the same as usual, without the slightest emotional fluctuation.

I didn't dare to provoke him, but I cursed in my heart, what did he want to do? Even if it was really my grandfather's arrangement, he would have told me why he did it.

Walking to the third coffin in the first row, my hands reached out uncontrollably and pushed the lid hard. The lid of this coffin is very thick and not light, although it has not been nailed on, it is not easy to push open.

When the lid of the coffin is pushed, the wood rubs against it and makes a somewhat harsh sound. I was about to cry, I was worried that the coffin was for me, and on the other hand, I was afraid of what was hidden in the coffin.

If when I push the coffin open, a zombie suddenly pops out of it or something, wouldn't I be miserable? That's right, it's all played like this in the movie, either zombies pop out of the coffin, or ghosts appear.

I think I've seen some big scenes, but this is really the first time I've encountered this situation, and I've never seen Yizhuang with so many coffins before, so it's fake to say that I'm not afraid.

"Bang dang!"

I pushed the lid off and smashed it to the ground. Glancing into the coffin, I was a little stunned, it was Qin Xue lying in the coffin!

To be precise, what was lying in the coffin was Qin Xue's body. I took a closer look, Qin Xue seemed to have already lost her breath, and the corpse was estimated to be hard.

"Senior, what do you mean by that? How did Qin Xue die? I asked, puzzled.

I remember that when Qin Xue disappeared in the morgue, she was still alive and well. My grandfather said that after the resentful spirit was resolved, Qin Xue's only trouble was the inner demon.

Well, now you don't have to think about the demons, people are already dead, what's the point of talking so much?

But why did she die? I promised the shadow that I would definitely save Qin Xue, how can I explain to the shadow now?

That's right, Qin Xue may have done a lot of wrong things before, but that was not her intention, she was just controlled by resentful spirits, and no matter how she sins, she will not die.

Now seeing her body lying here, my mood is a little complicated, and I look at the old man who guards the door with a little more scrutiny. Qin Xue was fine, did she die in the hands of the old janitor?

"The people who come here are all dead." The old janitor replied with a cold face.

The next moment, he disappeared from the spot, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared behind me again. I just felt him push me on the back, with great force.

Unable to resist, I plunged headlong into the coffin, my body pressed against the already cold corpse. I felt a pang in my heart, and goosebumps rose.

"Bang!" There was a loud bang, and my vision completely darkened.

Oops, the coffin is covered! I sat up suddenly, but my head hit the lid of the coffin, nearly knocking me unconscious.

But because of this collision, I was pleasantly surprised to find that my body was free again, and my hands and feet began to obey the call. I moved slightly, trying not to touch Qin Xue's corpse, and slapped the inner wall of the coffin hard.

"Senior, what are you doing, let me out quickly!" I screamed loudly.

It was quiet outside, and no matter how much I shouted, there was no response, and the old janitor seemed to have disappeared.

After shouting for a while, I gradually felt that there was a lack of oxygen in the coffin. The quality of this coffin is very good, the seal is extremely tight, and it is not breathable at all.

I panicked and didn't dare to make any more noise, nor did I dare to slap the coffin. The more I move here, the faster the oxygen is depleted.

Unfortunately, by the time I reacted, it was too late. After a few moments, I was already out of breath, my eyes were full of stars, and my heart felt as if I had a hundred rats scratching again.
