Chapter 48: The Corpse
In the dark, everyone's expressions seemed to freeze, and I stared at the small building that showed light, and my scalp tingled: "You really can't see?" Don't scare me, people are scared to death. ”
Tan Jian said lukewarmly: "When I have a lot of time, I have nothing to tease you?" "If Tan Jian can joke, the sky will fall, he is not a person who has nothing to do. I glanced at Zhou Xuanye, and he also gave a positive answer, nodding at me with a grim expression.
The fat man wiped his face and said, "Are you dazzled, or are you haunted?" ”
I said, "In the middle of the night, don't be a god?" ”
Ma Fatzi said: "I didn't believe it before, but the beautiful snakes have come out, I have to believe it." Now what? Shall we move forward? Zhou Xuanye walked in the front, holding the Si Ghost Sword in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Follow me." After saying that, he took the lead in the front.
To go to that hall, you must pass through the small building with the lights on. Soon, we gradually got closer, but Zhou Xuanye and the others, as if they couldn't see it at all, walked straight forward. I had to remind them: "Brother Zhou, it's here." "At the moment, we are walking on a narrow wooden cloister flanked by attics, a small lighted building that is now in front of me on my left, less than five meters away.
The crying had stopped, but the light from the window flickered on and off. Zhou Xuanye and the others obviously couldn't see this scene at all, they all looked at the place where I was staring for a while, and finally Tan Jian said to me, "Don't worry about this, go." ”
At this point, I don't know why this happened, and if it's a haunting, then where are the ghosts? Why is it only pestering me? In desperation, I could only forcibly ignore the small building that only I could see, and follow Zhou Xuanye and the others forward.
This place is built on an ice wall, and there are no forks in the road, so you can go straight away if you point out the direction, and you don't need me to lead the way.
After advancing for about a hundred meters, everyone arrived at the main hall where they naturally slept. The door was still ajar as it had been when I left, opening and closing in the cold wind, creaking and creaking.
It's dark inside, and I don't know how to stay natural. With such a big movement, he must have woken up and found that I was gone, but I hope that kid won't be angry because of this, and he won't do it.
I was the first to enter the door with a flashlight, and as soon as I pushed it open, I felt that something was wrong.
This is not the same hall as before, because the furnishings inside have completely changed.
The hall where Nature Stay took me was actually very empty, a hall for the gods, and this place, although the appearance is similar, but there are a lot of household goods inside. The long table felt is decorated, full of it, like a house, and it is the kind that is in better condition.
Ma Fatzi and the others rushed in after him, and when they saw that I was stunned and didn't move, they said, "Let's go, what is the pestle doing here, where does that kid sleep?" ”
I came back to my senses and immediately stepped back and said, "We're on the wrong side, not here." "Having said that, I actually have some bottomless in my heart, because there is only one road left and right in this place, and the distance is also estimated by me, so it stands to reason that I will not go wrong, and the main hall where I naturally stay is obviously in this area.
Besides, when I came with him, I didn't see anything like that around the hall.
The fat man looked at the place and said, "Not here?" Why doesn't the owner of this place close the door? It seems that this place is safe, and such a room of treasures is not afraid of being stolen. Saying that, his hands were a little irregular, he walked to a table, touched everywhere, and put some ornaments made by Golden Eagle Auto Trade on it.
I said, "It's not here, but the main hall should be nearby, let's go out." ”
At this time, Tan Jian said: "It's late." I turned my head and saw that his hand was on the wooden door, trying to pull it open, but it didn't move. It was obvious that Tan Jian was using a lot of force, and the wooden door was slammed by him, but there was no trace of it being opened.
I was startled and went to pull the door together, only to feel that the wooden door, as if it had been locked from the outside, could not be opened at all.
Estelle exclaimed, "Why can't the door open?" ”
Tan Jian said: "There was a figure outside just now, and we were locked. It seemed that the man's movements were fast, otherwise Tan Jian would not have given him a chance to lock the door. In the big night, who can't give us a chance? Why lock us here? Could it be the man I saw hiding behind the pillar?
I tried my best to eat, and I didn't open the wooden door, so at this moment, Zhou Xuanye motioned for us to dodge, and then, he found the weakest position of the wooden door, and raised his sword to cut it.
This ghost sword is a heavy sword, not to mention that it can cut demons and monsters, and it is also quite sharp. Zhou Xuanye's sword was slashed upward, and that place was an open-carved door flower. Under normal circumstances, if you want to break out, you will cut a hole with two axes. Even if we don't have an axe now, we can cut with our sword and cut four or five times.
Who knew that Zhou Xuanye slashed down with several swords in a row, and the weak openwork was not even broken, and when he took a closer look, there was only a very shallow trace left on it. The fat man exclaimed, "What kind of wood is this, so hard? ”
In fact, when I took that boat before, I thought that the material of the boat was strange, jet black, cold to the touch, and when I struck it, there was a sound like gold and stone, and I didn't know what material it was. The timber used for the building of this little Fuso is obviously exactly the same as that of the ship, but I didn't expect it to be so hard and invulnerable.
Zhou Xuanye didn't even succeed in slashing a few times, he frowned, glanced around, walked to the right again, lifted the blanket that was blocked, and walked to the window. He pulled down the window and found that it wouldn't open either.
I wondered a little, according to the structure of the house, the direction of this window is towards the ice wall, that is to say, the outside of this window, it should be suspended, even if someone wants to lock it, it is impossible to lock it, unless he can fly, or he hangs a rope from the upper floor. ,
This window looks weaker than this door, Zhou Xuanye pulled it twice and couldn't open it, so he slashed with his sword again, this time he cut it more than ten times in a row, and it really made him cut a small section.
The small piece was about the size of a thumb, and when it was cut off, it fell to the ground with a thud. When I picked it up, I found that the inside of the wood was also black, and when I went up and smelled it, I didn't smell anything.
This kind of window is not like the kind of window in ancient times, which was pasted with window paper. It is directly open-carved, and then blocked with felt, like curtains, the wind cannot penetrate. At this time, a piece was cut off, in fact, it was no different from not cutting one, and the lights went out, and you could see the dark night sky outside.
Zhou Xuanye seemed to think of something, and suddenly beckoned to Estelle and said, "Your hand is relatively small, reach out and touch the lock." ”
Estelle is a very energetic person and very courageous. Maybe the ignorant is not afraid, she didn't seem to be worried about the situation in front of her, and immediately said yes when she heard the words, and then stretched out her hand along the position that Zhou Xuanye had just cut off.
After a small piece of the window was cut off, the place was connected with the surrounding void, forming a plum-shaped hole, and the hands of our old men were too thick to pass through, until it was Estelle's hand, which was just the right size.
She stretched out and touched it for a while, then she looked puzzled: "Sir Zhou, I didn't touch the lock, this window has no lock." ”
I'm stunned, no lock? Why can't I open it if I don't have a lock?
I said, "You touch it again." She nodded, withdrew her hand, took off her thick coat, rolled her undershirt over her shoulders, and reached out her bare arm to touch it a second time.
This time her arm was longer, the fracture was a little uneven, and her snow-white arm left red marks, Estelle didn't care about this, and stretched her hand out, I was a little worried that she would get stuck.
Just as I was about to tell her to stop trying to reach out, Estelle suddenly snorted, and her hand spun around, as if she had touched something. I thought she had found the lock, but as the muscles in her arm pushed up, I realized that she must have touched something heavier, and the muscles in her arm bulged.
The rest of us tried to help, but there were only so many holes, so we had to just watch.
Estelle pulled and said, "It's so heavy." Suddenly, the thing she was pulling finally showed its face.
As soon as he saw that thing, the fat man said, "What's the matter, it's actually a rope?" "The rope is two-ended,
Estelle grasps the middle part, with both ends underneath. I guess the rope must be tied to the outer beam, and there is something about it pulling on the rope.
Now the rope pulls up and we can help. The fat man pulled the rope up with all his strength, and the next moment, a miserable white face suddenly burst out of the window, clinging to the window, and a pair of rolling eyes stared straight at us.
All of a sudden, I felt my scalp explode, and the blood all over my body rushed to my heart, and I was almost about to have a heart attack.
"Ahh
No one expected such a sudden appearance, the fat man screamed, and his hand was released, and at the same time, the human face fell sharply and disappeared without a trace.
In an instant, everyone realized that what was tied under the rope was actually a corpse! The human face that suddenly appeared just now was actually a corpse that was pulled up by us!
Several of us looked at each other, and we were a little speechless for a while.
How could there be a corpse tethered to the outer beam of this attic?
