Chapter 45: Footprints that Suddenly Appeared
Yuxuan is here, I won't be so cowardly, intimidated! You must work hard to help yourself and everyone break the curse of the finger lantern!
At this moment, Zhuge Cheng told us again: "Now let's turn off the mobile phone, otherwise if it rings at a critical moment, then it will be troublesome!" ”
We did what he said, and thought to ourselves, this guy is still very thoughtful!
The drizzle had fallen by the moment, and a bolt of lightning had streaked across the sky, but we had never seen a single figure here.
I guess it couldn't be the man who was passing by here and cooking, and at that moment we saw a shadow near the pot, wearing a gray robe, and a hat on his head, and when we took it off, we found that he was a bald man.
This guy has no hair!
And this person was actually scratching his head, but the reason why he was scratching his head was not because of itchy skin, but because it was covered with many big poisonous sores, and it was a leper head!
Could it be a monk? At that moment, Zhuge Cheng said to me: "This person should be a monk who came to Yunyou, and when he is hungry after passing here, he will cook and eat, which happens to be the same as our time, so I have this feeling." ”
I said, "Aren't monks who don't know how to eat meat?" And this kind of wandering is even more not! I don't understand what this bald man is doing. Could it be an authentic dog meat monk?
"You've seen too little, there are exceptions to everything, figuratively, what you see in front of you looks like mutton, but why does it smell like a dead body? How do you explain this kind of thing? Zhuge Cheng said as he lifted his large sunglasses.
I was speechless when he asked, and at the moment the three of us were watching the monk sit in front of the clay jar waiting for the meat to be cooked, of course, we didn't eat it, but wanted to see what kind of meat the monk was eating.
A few of us began to discuss, and at this moment there was a lightning bolt in the sky, this rain, is it going to fall, we looked at the haze in the sky, we were dumbfounded, and there was no result in discussing the monk, so I said: Why don't we go in and have a look!
"What's so beautiful, when you go in, you just see a monk eating meat." Yuxuan said.
"Now it's not a question of whether to go in or not, but to find out what kind of meat is boiling in his pot, which he said looks like mutton, but smells of dead corpses.
It was only after a while that the monk left and walked to the other side of the room, and I thought there must be other doors in this room, and at this moment we all wanted to go over and see the meat, but at the same time we thought, if this monk is a madman who eats dead bodies, aren't we in danger?
It seems that there is no guarantee for us to wait here, if not, we should leave quickly, and see what to do when everyone gathers, now that there are five of us, I don't believe that even a murderer can deal with it.
We still have to make some plans to start, otherwise it will be troublesome, we have to go back and think about it from the long term, at the same time the wind began to make a lot of noise outside, flying sand and rocks, I think it should be raining, Yuxuan asked me: When will you go?
I said, "Wait a minute, I think Zhuge Cheng what are you going to do?"
"Now let's go back first, it's too late at night, it's easy to have an accident, let's go back to the bald man and ask them, make a plan together, and come here again tomorrow!" Otherwise, it will be dangerous to enter in this way, maybe this monk has set some trap, if we fall into the trap, it will be troublesome! Let's go! ”
After speaking, Zhuge Cheng took the lead in turning around and leaving, but at this moment, Yuxuan couldn't help but point to the ground and shouted: "Fusheng, look at it!" How could there be such wet footprints on the floor of that room? ”
If it weren't for Yu Xuan's exclamation, we really didn't notice the footprints on the ground, I looked at the ground behind me with Zhuge Cheng, and sure enough, there were wet footprints here, and these footprints were dense, extending from the outside to the back of us in this house, as if we had been walking in this room for a long time.
Think about it when we came in just now, the sky hadn't rained yet, everyone's shoes were dry, and now it's raining a lot outside, which means that this footprint is not something we left behind?!
So who the hell came in just as we turned to peek at the pot?
The location was close to Zhuge Cheng, but this guy didn't even notice that there was a problem, so it should be that he didn't know that anyone had come in.
And the three of us never left the room just now, so it's even more unlikely that these footprints were left by us!
I observed the direction of the footprints, first walked in step by step from the outside of the house, and then stayed behind Zhuge Cheng for a while, because I could see that the area of the footprints was very large there, and then it walked behind Yuxuan, and also stayed there for a while.
In the end, he came behind me, but these wet footprints behind me were staggered back and forth, as if a person had hesitated behind me, why did he walk behind me?
Could it be the ghost in the last ghost eye, the one behind us, although we can't see it, its footprints are already under our feet at this moment!
There is also this ghost from Longhu Mountain, last time he talked to me once, but when Jinghui's name was mentioned, he left, I don't know which one it is, or they are the same at all, and now he finds out that I am here, and then he plans to kill me, but he cares about something, so he has not dared to start, and has been delaying until now?
I can't think of a reason for this question for a while, and at this moment I looked down again at those footprints, but after looking at them for a while, I glared and said: Quickly block the doors and windows, this person has not left the room yet!
The architectural style of this house is that kind of Jiangnan town, the design of blue tiles and white walls shows a classical atmosphere, the doors and windows are extremely elegant, especially the windows, and most of the house is designed into a circular layout.
At the moment when I finished speaking, I didn't have time to think about anything, so I closed the doors and windows directly, and then Yuxuan and Zhuge Cheng also cooperated with me and closed the door.
But we didn't see anyone stay here, or appear, Zhuge Cheng thought for a moment, and said to me: This guy should be gone, his strength is much stronger than mine, otherwise why didn't I find out? Let's get out of here now!
I think it's useless for us to stay here now that he's gone, so let's hurry back to the room we just now and see how the trench coat and the lame old man are doing.
When we came back here and saw them eating, and asked what we had just encountered, we told them everything about the leper-headed monk.
Saying that they had no clue for the time being, they had to plan again tomorrow, and everyone was tired again now, so they didn't say anything, made their beds and went to bed.
But at midnight, I didn't know what time it was, I held my urine and got up, and at the same time I heard something from the depths of Lansha Town, clanging, like a person striking iron in the distance, but how to complete this kind of action alone, it is the combination of materials to many people.
I returned to the house with questions, planning to ask Uncle Trench Coat about them, I never thought that they and Yuxuan also got up, Uncle Trench Coat said to me: I can't sleep tonight, let's go out and have a look!
It was also said that there was no loud noise, no one could sleep, so we had to take all our luggage and go outside, following the noisy sound of striking iron, fortunately there was no heavy rain outside, but the roads in the town were wet, and there was some mud, and it was extremely unnatural to walk on it.
The sky was still scratching with lightning, and there was no light or breath in the barren mountains and mountains in the distance, as if we had fallen into hell, walking around in a certain area.
After some distance, I looked back and found that the lame old man was gone, did he carry too many things, so he couldn't walk, I hurriedly walked behind me, and found him in a corner.
"Old Li, you are walking so slowly!"
"It's good to say, I'm carrying two pieces of luggage, and one of them is still very heavy!"
The others saw that I was gone, and soon came over, Zhuge Cheng saw the lame old man walking slowly, so he complained: You old man, can you walk faster? You've delayed our time!
Why is that backpack of yours so heavy? The lame old man replied, at this moment I was thinking, all of us have food or something in our luggage, but Zhuge Cheng put something like that kind of metal, which is very heavy.
Now that he was embarrassed to say that others were slow, I went over and said to him: Forget it, Zhuge Cheng, don't care about these things that we are all going to go with now, let's go and see what the sound is, right?
At this moment, he said: We only had a total of six luggage just now, why do you have one on you?
Everyone immediately looked behind themselves, at this moment, except for the two on the lame old man, there is another one, why do I still have luggage on me? Isn't that one more?
I immediately threw my things on the ground, I always felt that this luggage was very heavy, and I really didn't know what was inside.
When I threw my luggage on the ground, Zhuge Cheng immediately walked over, opened the chain in it, and saw that a lot of loess fell out of it.
Uncle Trench Coat smiled at this moment and said: Haha, this can't be a prank made by someone halfway, right?
But there is absolutely no one among us who takes this kind of thing, Zhuge Cheng saw this, and immediately took it inside, and as a result, a white mask slipped from the loess, and the eyes of this mask were even depicted with another pair of eyes, which were four eyes! It turned out to be him!
Seeing this mask, Zhuge Cheng knelt on the ground, as if he had suffered a huge blow, and shouted, why? You're going to do it!
I came behind him and wanted to ask him how he was, but looking at his current mood, I couldn't bother him, so I could only say: Big brother, what's wrong with you?
