Chapter 8: The Old Corpse Appears

I woke up from my sleep, panting and sweating through my clothes.

There was a blurry moonlight outside the window, and it must have been midnight at this time.

That dream was terrible. That terrifying human face and bewitching red eyes still have palpitations when I think about it now.

I breathed a sigh of relief, sat up, got out of bed, put on my slippers, and headed to the bathroom.

Boom, tap water rushed into the basin, I picked up the cold water and poured it on my face, the cool silk refreshment made the heat disappear suddenly.

With my hands pressed on the edge of the basin, I breathed a sigh of relief, reached out to tighten the faucet, and looked up to look for a towel, only to see an old face reflected in the mirror, staring at me fiercely with a pair of yellow eyes!

"I'm grass!" Unprepared, I stumbled and fell backwards, if I hadn't reached out to support the wall, I would have squatted with a big ass.

No, I found a weirdness.

I was moving, and the horrible old face in the mirror moved with me, and it kept hiding my true face.

Finding this weirdness, I couldn't help but reach out and touch my face, the feel was as smooth as before, but why was my hand in the mirror touching a wrinkled old face?

"Because I'm in your body!" An unfamiliar voice rang out in my head.

"Who! Who's talking? I almost jumped up in fright, and shouted in astonishment.

"Of course it's me!" The strange voice sounded in my head again, "Didn't we already meet in your dream just now. ”

** human face, bewitching red eyes, I suddenly shivered, and said in a trembling voice, "You, you are the zombie who eats people!" ”

"No, that's not me, that's the breeze."

As soon as I heard the "breeze", I subconsciously asked, "Are you Mingyue?" ”

"Breeze and moon? It's a good match," the strange voice chuckled, "but I'm talking about Qingfeng." ”

"Qingfeng," I said in amazement, "that human-eating zombie is a woman. ”

"Of course!" The strange voice said, "But to be correct, she's not a zombie, she's a corpse eater!" ”

"And who are you?" It has nothing to do with me what kind of monster it is, but I pointed to the weird old face in the mirror and said in a deep voice, "How did you get it, how did my face become like this!" ”

"You haven't changed at all?" A strange voice said in my head, "I don't believe you. ”

As soon as it finished speaking, the strange old face in the mirror suddenly disappeared, and my face appeared, the expression so stunned and inexplicable.

"It's the same!" My heart calmed a little, but it was even more strange, "But who are you!" ”

"My name used to be Zitong, but I'm afraid I'll be you in the future!" The strange voice sighed.

"What?!" I was just about to have a seizure when a word popped into my head, and I stammered in disbelief and said, "You, you can't be an old corpse!" ”

The strange voice was silent for a moment, and then said with certainty, "Yes, I'm an old corpse!" ”

Li Ming, the broken corpse, the young man who died in a car accident, my mysterious fainting, etc., I seem to have found the connection, but I feel that an important link is missing, and this missing link just makes it difficult to connect the two things.

"How did Li Ming die?" I said coldly.

"Suicide!" The strange voice replied crisply.

"Do you think I'm going to believe you?" I sneered.

"I don't have to lie to you!" The strange voice said calmly, "Now that I am in your body, and you are the leader, it is not good for me to lie to you." And if he doesn't kill himself, I won't need you. ”

"So, you used to be Li Ming?" I didn't know what I was feeling and my heart lifted nervously.

Fortunately, the strange voice said the following words, which made me feel a little better, "When Li Ming is in the body, he is also the leader, and I am the subordinate." ”

"Why did he kill himself?" I breathed a sigh of relief; I really can't stand knowing that my buddy in six years of college is actually a walking dead who has been replaced by an old corpse. Friendship memories or something, what is that? Bullshit!

"Emotional problems," the strange voice sighed, "Li Ming's IQ is very high, but his EQ is just the opposite!" It's just a watery poplar girl, can you do it? Alas, I can't persuade either! If I could, I really wouldn't want to change my body. He's so nice! Moreover, since you know the old corpse, you must know that once the old corpse changes its body, its mental power will be reduced by one point, and in the end, there will be nothing. I also have no choice but to ask for your forgiveness. ”

I remember, Officer Liao seems to have said that the old corpse will be quickly absorbed and eliminated by the earth's magnetic field when it is separated from the body, and when Li Ming committed suicide, Xue Wenli and I happened to appear at the scene, shit, it's really fucking coincidental! The reason why he chose me was probably because he was a man, so he automatically gave up Xue Wenli.

But why did the young man who died in a car accident open his eyes, I swear it was definitely not my hallucination. After that, I fainted bizarrely, wait a while, is it related to Director Xia? But why did he harm me? How did he do it? I don't think I've offended him, it's unreasonable!

My heart tightened, as if I was about to grasp something, and analyzed it bit by bit: If what the old corpse in my body said is true, then it will be difficult to explain what happened in the intensive care unit, if it is a lie, then what is the characteristics of the old corpse of Li Ming's corpse? These two things...... Wait, aren't the old corpse and the corpse eater two people?

"Where did the corpse eater go?" I felt that the truth was close at hand, and I asked a little breathlessly.

"I'm sorry," the strange voice said apologetically, "in your home." ”

"What!" I was stunned, my eyebrows upside down, "You fart, how can there be a monster in my house?!" ”

Although Chen Meng is a mortician, this girl does work with dead corpses all day long, and I really don't like her, but if you want to say that she is a monster, I don't believe it!

"Don't worry," the strange voice said calmly, "you should recall your dreams, the four men in the tomb. ”

I suppressed my anger and pondered for a moment, and suddenly I was hit hard, "Impossible, absolutely impossible!" I said firmly.

The dream was so clear that it seemed to have been experienced by myself, but I remember it clearly, the four tomb robbers were dead! There is no live mouth.

"You remember," the strange voice sighed, "I'm sorry for your father's early death, but in his place is Qingfeng." ”

"You fart!" I was furious, "My dad wasn't dead at all, he wasn't a tomb robber, it was just a dream, a nightmare!" ”

"You have a famous artifact in your house, and you know that it is a burial object in the ancient tomb, so your father must be a tomb robber," the strange voice said calmly, "I admit that for you, it is indeed a dream, but for me, it is a real event." ”

I understand, no wonder those two dreams are so absurd and so clear, it turns out that this old corpse named Zitong is the experience, and he told me his identity in a dream way.

And there are indeed antiques in my house, and I always thought that my father had taken them back in every possible way.

I think of my father a few years ago when he suddenly went away from home all day, and he didn't see him a few times a year. My heart, the temperature dropped to freezing.

But I still can't believe the fact that my father has become a monster.

I couldn't help but ask, "If that monster had replaced my father, then Chen Meng, who was an ordinary person, would have been eaten a long time ago, how could she still be alive now!" ”

"Chen Meng is not an ordinary person!" The strange voice said strangely.

"Are they of the same kind!?" I said angrily, whether my father is a monster or not is a bit debatable, even my stepmother is not a normal person, how can I believe it! Although I don't like Chen Meng, as a stepmother, she has done a good job, at least I can't find fault with it.

Even if what the old corpse in the body said was true, "Then why am I still alive!" ”

"I don't know!" The strange voice said meaningfully, "I'm also surprised, there are so many strange beings around you, it's a miracle that you are actually alive and well!" ”

"What do you mean!" I said angrily.

"It's better that you still don't know!" The strange voice sighed, "Knowing the truth can sometimes be more disturbing. ”

"Less!" My patience is running out.

"Okay," the strange voice sighed, "for example, that Director Xia of your hospital, his identity is definitely more than just a doctor, you don't think he can be weird sometimes." And that Officer Liao, a policeman, where did he know about the old corpse? You must know that even in the Tang Dynasty, the old corpse was a secret that few people knew. Not to mention these, just these two in your family, if there is no special reason, I'm afraid you would have died a thousand times earlier! But you're still alive now, I really don't understand, otherwise I wouldn't have spent my mental energy to take the initiative to talk to you. ”

The strange voice stopped talking after speaking.

I listened dumbfounded, and the doubts hidden in my heart were all brought to my mind when he talked about them. It's not that I don't have doubts, but I don't want to admit it, because I have a worldview that I've been sticking to for years, but my doubts are trying to shatter it alive. Paradoxically, I deliberately ignored these suspicions, because I doubted, and it was possible that my suspicions were true.

But if it's true, what a fucking world I'm in!

Zitong is right, "Knowing the truth sometimes makes me more troubled", and now I am anxious and troubled.

"However, I guess the reason why you turn evil into good luck has something to do with the necklace around your neck!" The old corpse suddenly said in my mind.

Necklace? I looked down and saw the small pendant in the shape of an animal's tooth hanging from my neck, black and unusual.

This thing I have been carrying since I can remember, it is said that my grandmother gave it to me, I was born after the night always crying, looking for Mr. Feng Shui to see, Mr. said that I am weak in eight characters, easy to be disturbed by unclean things, so grandma gave me this ancestral pendant. The old man Gu said, this thing can drive away evil and avoid evil, of course I don't know if it's true or not, is there really anything strange about this thing that I don't know?

"It seems that you don't know, it's the ghost king's tooth pendant, the most secluded evil exorcism, I really didn't expect that you would have such an exorcism artifact, and the family teacher didn't have a chance to find it back then."

"You've been in my body for days, and you're only coming out now, so it has something to do with it!" I say.

"It has a lot to do with it," the old corpse was very single, and admitted it directly.

He said, "The reason why I tell you is that you want to show an attitude, and the current state is not something that you and I are willing to face, but since it has become an irreversible fact, you might as well show a little sincerity to each other and accept each other!" ”

"Accept you, dream!" I say

"You misunderstood, I don't want to be with you all the time, but to stay temporarily, and when my mental strength is almost recovered, you can find a corpse for me to possess, it shouldn't be difficult for you, right? When the time comes, we can go our separate ways, and the well water will not interfere with the river water. I promise that after I leave, your body will slowly become normal. You can rest assured of this, but before that, will we be able to live in peace? ”

I pondered for a moment with a gloomy face, and found that there was no other way, so I had to nod reluctantly.

"Thank you," the old corpse was excited, "I promise that it won't be for long, and in return, I'll definitely be able to do whatever I want, after all, your business is my business now." I rested first, thank you again, you are a good person! ”

The old corpse's voice stopped abruptly.

I thought with a wry smile, good guy? Am I still human?
