1953.

Summer.

By this time the night was getting deeper.

A few kilometers southwest of a remote mountain village in the north, there is an overgrown wilderness, where the sound of insects and the occasional barking of dogs can be heard from afar.

Suddenly!

A little flickering red light appeared on the hillside next to the field, and the moonlight that had just appeared shook over and saw that there was a person squatting on the hillside! It looks like a young man.

This man doesn't sleep in the middle of the night, what is he doing in this wilderness?

I saw that this person was wearing a mouse suit, a one-piece hat on his head, a pair of fingerless gloves on both hands, and a pair of red-faced and black-bottomed water and fire shoes on his feet, and was squatting on the hillside "Let's do it" and smoke a cigarette.

Beside him was an oilcloth rucksack flanked by oddly shaped shovels with crescent-like heads mixed with dirt. Looking at his right side, there is an unfathomable circular thief hole with a diameter of about fifty centimeters.

It seems that this man is a tomb robber!

The incessant sound of insects made the man a little restless, he held a cigarette in one hand and kept driving away the annoying mosquitoes in the other. Every time I smoked a cigarette, I mumbled in my mouth, as if I was cursing the dreary weather and the annoying mosquitoes.

Soon, a cigarette reached the bottom, and the man took a deep breath and slowly exhaled it, his eyes seemed to become cold. He threw the cigarette butt to his feet and stomped on it with all his might.

Then, he groped around his right ankle, and only then did he see that there was a matchstick thick hemp rope tied to his ankle, which led to the thief's hole.

The man unhurriedly rolled up the hemp rope and pulled it out in a ball, and at the end of the hemp rope, there were gray squirrels tied to it.

The gray squirrel squeaked and struggled violently, as if trying to grasp the twine tied to its tail, apparently not feeling like being hanged.

Seeing that the gray squirrel was still alive, the man showed a smile on his face, untied the hemp rope, patted the gray squirrel on the head, and brought out a bird cage from behind him.

He put the gray squirrel in the birdcage, took out a piece of sweet potato from his bosom and threw it in, patted the cage and said, "Little one, hard work." The gray squirrel hugged the sweet potato and nibbled on it.

After that, the man stopped paying attention to the squirrel, picked up a wooden stick from the ground that was slightly longer than the mouth of the thief's cave and had the thickness of a bowl, and took out a bundle of hemp rope with the thickness of his thumb from his oilcloth backpack and tied it to the middle of the stick, and then placed the stick horizontally on the edge of the thief's hole.

After doing this series of actions, the man stretched his waist, took out the fire fold and blew it up, put the oilcloth backpack into his arms, grabbed the hemp rope, held the fire fold, and slowly slid down from the thief hole.

Strange to say, the outside is still dull, hot and dry, but when you enter the tomb, it is surprisingly cold. As soon as the man's feet touched the ground, he couldn't help but shiver.

The man cursed secretly, then held his breath and listened attentively, and was relieved to see that there was nothing abnormal.

He took the tarpaulin backpack out of his bosom and placed it on the cemetery, and carefully walked around the burial chamber with the fire fold. At this turn, it was found that there were still several unburned oil lamps hanging on the walls of the tomb.

The man used the fire fold to light the oil lamp one by one, and the whole burial chamber was reflected from the flickering yellow light, although it was not very clear, but it did not obstruct the vision too much.

He extinguished the fire and examined the chamber carefully.

There are three chambers: a main chamber, and in the center of the main chamber is a sarcophagus facing the tomb door. The left and right sides of the main chamber are equipped with an ear chamber, and the whole tomb is in the shape of an inverted "product".

Suddenly, the man's expression suddenly became nervous. I saw that his body was obviously stiffened, and then he gasped, his mouth was slightly open, his eyes were straight and round, and he looked extremely incredible.

He squinted vigorously a few times, then rubbed it again, obviously not believing the facts in front of him. He stood in place with trembling legs and spun around, took a few steps back, and cursed with a knot in his tongue: "Horse and horse! ”

What did he see?

As he looked over, on the walls on both sides of the tomb, and directly above the corresponding two ear chambers, there was a black paper-cut - Xi Zi! In addition, there are black cloth hydrangeas hanging in a circle on the surrounding walls!

What the hell is this a tomb, or does it look like a wedding room! It's also so weird! No wonder the man looked so nervous.

It took a while for the man to recover from the shock, he trembled and rolled up a trumpet cigarette and took a few puffs, opened his mouth and scolded: "The horse is a bastard!" This tomb owner can't be a pervert! ”

Then, the man took a sip, threw the unfinished cigarette on the ground and stepped on it, gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "I want to use this set to scare Lao Tzu, what guy has I never seen?" This fight Lao Tzu is decided! ”

This man's accent is quite strange, with a Hakka accent mixed with northern dialect.

After that, the man blew on the fire and walked into the ear room, and when he entered, the man was startled again. Not only is the main chamber of this tomb weird, but even the two ear chambers are extremely strangely decorated.

The ear chamber on the left is a large mahogany bed with a mosquito-proof gauze net, of course, the mahogany has become a dark red due to time and environmental factors, but the gauze net is completely black.

In the upper left corner of the bed is a dresser with a mirror, the surface of which is covered with dark spots that have become blurred.

In the ear chamber on the right was a wooden bathtub, which was still full of water, but the water was crystal clear, and there was a black substance at the bottom of the basin, presumably rotten petals.

The man came out of the ear chamber with a fire fold, and was secretly surprised in his heart: I am afraid that I can't count ten fingers of the tomb I have entered, and this is the first time I have seen such a strange tomb, let alone see, I have never even heard of it.

"No matter, open the coffin and see." He muttered. After saying that, he put out the fire fold and put it back in his arms, rolled up his sleeves, and pulled out a sharp black iron rod about a foot long and sharpened from his waist.

He walked to the middle of the sarcophagus, inserted the iron rod into the gap in the sarcophagus, and lifted it hard, only to hear a "poof", and the man almost fell down.

What's going on? If you look closely, the lid and body of the sarcophagus are cracked from the place where the iron rod is inserted, and it looks like the entire sarcophagus will shatter and collapse with a slight touch.

What kind of sarcophagus is this, it's just plaster! Could it be that there was a tofu slag project in ancient times? Someone is starting to learn to cut corners? Impossible! There's no way it's possible to kill someone, right?

He had forgotten that he was fighting the idea of the dead. The man cursed and kicked at the so-called 'sarcophagus', which collapsed with a thud and rolled up a puff of dust.

The man squinted and took a few steps back, covering his nose with one hand, and waving the dust in front of his eyes with the other, and when the dust had settled, he saw a lacquered black coffin with a shiny body.

The man frowned and picked up a 'stone' and looked at it, then put it under his nose and sniffed it, and gently pinched it with his hand to become a powder, the man clapped his hands and ignored it, and carefully looked at the black coffin.

On both sides of the body of the black leather coffin are two birds with wings spread opposite each other, like white cranes, and in the middle of the birds is a pattern like a peony flower. The lid and the upper and lower ends of the coffin are full of Sanskrit, and I don't know what is written.

The man seemed to be familiar at this time, and without any hesitation, he picked up a crowbar to pry open the nails of the coffin, eagerly lifted the lid of the coffin, and looked in through the light. At this look, the man's whole body was blinded.

Inside the coffin was the corpse of a young woman in a wedding dress!

The female corpse has a delicate face, moth eyebrows, and it is even lifelike! Even the funeral clothes he was wearing were still shiny, and his slightly raised cheeks and lips were still smeared with red.

If it weren't for the fact that the nails of this female corpse were all rolled up, who would think that the one in front of her was a dead corpse? It's clearly the sleeping beauty who is sleeping peacefully!

This? The man smacked his lips, swallowed and foamed, and then found that on both sides of the head of the female corpse were placed a dazzling array of funeral utensils, including jade Ruyi, pearl necklaces, gold ingots, and so on

The man got carried away all of a sudden, put aside the horror in his heart, and was about to reach out.

At this time, the man's figure froze, his eyes rolled and muttered: "That dresser may also have some gold and silver jewelry, I'll go and see it first, and then I'll put it behind." The man stopped, took out the fire fold, and went straight to the chamber with the dresser.

As the man expected, there was really a jewelry box in the dresser, which was full of all kinds of jewelry. Now the man looked extremely proud, and was in a very good mood, whistling and putting the jewelry box into the oilcloth rucksack.

Everything was ready, and the man couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, and rubbed his hands together and walked towards the coffin.

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly sprang out of the coffin!

The man's eyes were dark, his heart was tight, and he knew that something was wrong, and a "carp turned over" turned backwards. It can be seen that this man thinks quickly and acts quickly, no wonder a person dares to go down to the ground to rob the tomb.

As soon as the man's toes touched the ground, before he could stand firmly, there was already a bright knife in his hand, and the man threw the knife towards the black shadow without hesitation.

The knife flew against the walls of the tomb with a black shadow, and fell to the ground with a "clang".

Only then did the man stand still, squint at the dark shadow, and saw a black-haired wild cat standing on the edge of the coffin.

The wild cat, with its terrifyingly shining eyes, looked at the man, meowed at him, and quickly jumped out of the hole.

The man let out a long breath and patted his chest and scolded: "Damn wild cat, I'm scared to death." He thought this tomb was too weird, and it was better to get rid of it quickly.

He walked quickly to the coffin and was about to start, when the man's body shook, and his breath was stuck in his throat, and he was almost about to shout.

The female corpse in the coffin opened her eyes at this time and stared at him directly.

The man suddenly went numb from his scalp to the instep of his feet, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat, he took a strong breath and took a few steps back, not wanting to step on the falling knife, and his foot slipped and fell to the ground with a "poof".

The man didn't care about the faint pain from his buttocks, and hurriedly crawled to the oilcloth rucksack, and hurriedly took out the black donkey's hooves, thinking: "The corpse is going to change!" ”

However, the man waited for a long time and did not see any noise in the coffin.

Finally, the man couldn't bear it anymore, he simply threw the black donkey's hooves into the coffin, quickly picked up the knife from the ground, and hunched his body, ready for a fight.

After a while, the man saw that there was still no movement in the coffin, so he dared to approach the coffin little by little.

Seeing that the female corpse in the coffin did not have the slightest sign of corpse transformation except for the opening of her eyes, she breathed a sigh of relief. He muttered, "It must have been the dead wild cat that stepped on some part of the female corpse that made the female corpse open its eyes." ”

Although he was chattering like this, the man still held the knife tightly in his hand, staring at the coffin without relenting. At this time, his heart had suddenly begun to retreat.

But then after thinking about it, he muttered again: "What is in this coffin is all good things, if I recognize it because the female corpse opened her eyes, wouldn't it make my peers laugh at it?" Then I'm a jerk! ”

Having made up his mind, the man took a sip, rolled up a cigarette and finished smoking, and slapped his thigh, "Fight!" Holding a knife in his hand, he walked to the coffin, stared at the female corpse with his eyes, and cautiously reached in to get the burial utensils.

In order to give himself courage, his mouth trembled and muttered, "You must not change the corpse, let's talk ugly things ahead, if you change the corpse, my knife is not a vegetarian, if you accidentally cut a few knives on your face, you will not be beautiful at that time" muttered like this, and the man stuffed the funeral goods one by one into his arms.

Gradually, the man's voice became quieter and quieter

In the end, only his lips were moving, but his throat was not making a sound. His nervous expression gradually became a little confused, and his brows became more and more furrowed.

Slowly, the man let go of his frowning brows, his expression suddenly changed from doubt to dullness, and his eyes began to blur.

He stared at the female corpse, as if he was a little stunned, and he didn't reach out for the funeral goods, and he didn't even care if the knife in his hand fell to the ground, so he stared at the female corpse's eyes stupidly.

Suddenly, the man's eyes changed from blurry to hot, and he seemed to be staring at not the female corpse, but his lover.

He actually grinned and giggled.

Finally, he bent down and picked up the woman's corpse.

He, still smirking at the female corpse, walked to the chamber with the mahogany bed.

After a while, a muffled thunder suddenly sounded in the sky
