Father Luo shook his head and explained: "No, the mouth and nose of the corpse are filled with high-grade Chenzhou sand, and the chest and abdomen are still suppressed with Chenzhou charms, and the corpse cannot be changed." ”

"Daddy Luo, do you know how many kinds of corpses there are in the Dao?" There is a good curiosity to ask.

As the saying goes, "If you take someone's hand, you eat someone's mouth is short", Daddy Luo nibbled on the fragrant roast chicken, so he talked a lot.

"It is said that there are eighteen kinds of corpses, but I have only seen two or three of them in my decades of walking."

"What are the eighteen of them?" Arara came to be interested.

"Well, there are bloody corpses, shadow corpses, flesh corpses, skin corpses, sweat corpses, hairy corpses, awakened corpses, stone corpses, zombies, jade corpses, walking corpses, deceptive corpses, walking corpses, armor corpses, fighting corpses, vegetable corpses, cotton corpses, and wooden corpses, a total of eighteen corpses." Daddy Luo pinched his fingers and counted them one by one.

Youliang has only seen two of these corpses, that is, Professor Guan and Sister Du, who are fighting corpses, and he can't imagine that there are so many strange things in the world.

"How can a corpse change occur when a person dies?"

"Well," Father Luo thought for a moment and said, "Each kind of corpse transformation has different coincidences, in short, it takes a variety of conditions to happen to meet together, which is very rare." Take our Yuanling Walking Village as an example, some people have driven corpses for a lifetime, and they may not be able to see a corpse. ”

"You're from Yuanling?" Youliangyan's heart moved, and Liu 13 said that Erya and they lost their traces there.

"Well, in a small remote village in the deep mountains of Yuanling, since ancient times, the men in the village have been engaged in the business of 'walking feet', and this is how the name of 'walking village' comes from."

"Where are you going now?" Arira asked.

"Returning to Yuanling, sending 'Xishen' home, her hometown is Daheping Township, and something happened when she was working in Shenzhen. Alas, it's quite pitiful, the little girl is only fifteen years old, younger than my son's. Daddy Luo sighed.

"Shenzhen is far away, aren't you going to walk for a long time?" Youliang heard Xue Daochan say that it was a newly built special zone, and it was a dazzling world of flowers.

"No, this girl looks very handsome, works as a waitress in a hotel in Shenzhen, was ruined by a rich boss, and stripped off her clothes and threatened her to pick up customers. The child ran home overnight, and when the car arrived in Lipu, he felt that he had no face to see his family again, and he hanged himself if he couldn't think about it for a while, if he didn't leave a suicide note, no one would know about these things, alas, what the world. ”

"You can catch that villain based on the suicide note." Youliang said angrily.

"It's useless, the police in Lipu County said that the people are no longer there, there is no proof of death, and it is suicide, now the emphasis is on evidence, and then the two of us rushed to Lipu to take her home, only in the hometown, the child can be rested."

"What's the name of the bad boss?" Youliang thinks that one day if he touches me, he will have to suck him dry and then freeze him into a big ice lump.

"It's all written in that suicide note, and the suicide note was detained by the Lipu County Public Security Bureau, saying that it must be sealed in the file to close the case."

After chatting and chatting, the pheasants were all eaten, and Daddy Luo stood up to thank him and prepared to continue his journey.

"May I come with you?" Arara asked suddenly.

"Little brother, where are you going?" Daddy Luo was puzzled.

"I wanted to find a friend, and I heard that she went to Yuanling."

"Where is Yuanling?"

"I don't know what happened, she's missing."

"Ah, is there such a thing?" Daddy Luo doesn't seem to believe it.

"Her name is Erya, and she's a girl." Youliang had to tell the truth.

"It's you, right?"

"Hmm." Arira blushed.

"Okay, let's go together, the more you go inside, the deeper you go, the deep mountains and old forests, you are a stranger who is easy to get lost and can't get out." Daddy Luo readily agreed.

At this moment, Mei Niang had already gnawed away her pheasant, swallowed the chicken head and squeezed out the hard chicken beak from between her teeth and spit it out, burping twice and patting her bulging belly, which looked particularly comfortable, and made Daddy Luo stupid.

Youliang carried Mei Niang back to the bamboo basket and carried it on her back, extinguished the bonfire, and then went on the road with Father and Son Luo.

In the middle of the night, a small village appeared in the col, darkly lit, and the people were asleep.

Daddy Luo rang the yin gong in front of him, and shouted in his mouth: "Yin people are on the road, and the living people are avoided."

According to the rules, it was not possible to drive corpses into the village, so they made a detour along the road outside the village.

There is a small land temple more than half a person high on the side of the road, and Father Luo took out a handful of paper money and threw it out.

At this moment, a low roar was suddenly heard, and several wild dogs suddenly sprang out from behind the small land temple, among which the huge black vicious dog instantly pounced on the female corpse, opened its bloody mouth and bit it.

Under the moonlight, Luo Zhuzi behind the female corpse saw it clearly, and with a flick of his wrist, he stabbed the dog stick directly into the dog's mouth, but the evil dog was extremely powerful, and he grabbed the stick and pulled it violently, causing him to lose his center of gravity and fall to the ground, but he instantly pounced on the female corpse and used his body to protect the dead girl.

Father Luo in front was shocked, raised his dog beating stick and was about to recite the "Dumb Dog Mantra" to drive away the vicious dog.

At this moment, a black shadow "swished" out of the back basket behind Youliang, and heard the "snort" several times in a row, blood splashed in the moonlight, and Mei Niang's claws had already cut off the throats of those vicious wild dogs, and the corpses were lying on the ground.

Daddy Luo was simply dumbfounded.

At this moment, a series of dog barking came from the mountain village, from far and near.

"Let's go, the dogs will be in trouble as soon as they come," Father Luo hurriedly picked up the pillar, said hurriedly, and shouted a witch spell, "Get up!" ”

The female corpse under the moon stood up again and followed Boss Du and left in the wilderness.

Before dawn, they finally arrived at a "dead body inn" near the Yuanshui Ferry.

"It's a shame that the wild dogs didn't bite the carcass." Father Luo inspected the female corpse and said with palpitations.

"Daddy Luo, what kind of dog is it for the dead to bite?" Arira asked.

"There is a peculiar smell emitted from the corpse, which can be smelled by a dog's nose, and the stronger the resentment, the stronger the smell."

"Oh, that's right." Arara understood.

"Zhuzi, you go to the ferry first, tell Cui Gonggong, say that there are Yin people crossing the river tonight, come back and eat and sleep." Boss Du commanded.

The pillar walked out of the inn in response, and the ferry boat in Xiangxi has always waited at night as long as the footman greeted him, so that the souls of the dead guests could go home early to reunite with their relatives.

At this moment, the ferry had just docked, and Cui Cheng recognized Luo Zhuzi and waved his hand to beckon him over.

"Uncle Cui, Dad asked me to tell you that there is a Yin person who wants to cross the river tonight." The pillar said gloomily.

"Don't worry, I'll wait," Cui Gong replied with a smile, looking at the sullen back of the pillar, "What's wrong with this kid?" It wasn't like that before. ”

At night, they took the corpses on the road again, and the ferry boat was waiting on time by the Yuanshui River, and now the government has broken the superstition and banned the business of walking, so they can only take the job secretly.

"Daddy Luo, long time no see." Cui Gonggong said hello.

"Now everywhere there is access to the road, cars are used to pull corpses, and there is less and less work to walk, and it seems that this may be the last trip." Daddy Luo said.

"Let's let Zhuzi go to Guangdong to work, and learn the craft as soon as possible."

Daddy Luo nodded: "This time I came back in a hurry, and the pillar said that I would go to apply for a border pass first, and then I would go to the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone to find a job." ”

"This guest is very raw, isn't he from our local?" Cui Gonggong was slightly surprised to see Youliang.

"He came to Yuanling to look for relatives, and he met Lu on the way to take a companion." Daddy Luo replied.

The ferry boat was offshore and pushed towards the opposite side, and the cold moon was silent, only the slight rattle of the penny entering the water.

"Where is the god of joy today?" Cui Gonggong is a talkative person, his mouth is not idle, and he has been on the ferry in Yuanshui for a lifetime, which can be described as well-informed.

"Daheping Township, the girl is only fifteen years old, and she is a sin." Daddy Luo told the tragic story again.

"There are always injustices in the world, what can we grass people do?" Cui Gonggong also sighed when he heard this.

By the light of the moon, Arira took a closer look at the deceased's face, and found that the girl was very delicate, with her eyes closed and her eyebrows seemed to be inexplicably sorrowful, and a cyan strangulation mark could be seen under her neck.

He glanced at it inadvertently, and saw the pillar sitting on the gang of the boat, weeping secretly.

Daheping Township is located in the north of Yuanling County, more than 80 kilometers away from the county seat in the deep mountains, Luo Lao Dad is still day and night, the foot of the corpse is not fast, and it is a night climbing road, so a few days later in the early morning finally arrived at the destination.

This is a small mountain village surrounded by mountains, with only a dozen families, quietly, only one house in the east of the village has a light on, and that may be the girl's home.

"Yin people go home, people avoid it" Father Luo knocked the small yin gong into the village, the moon stars were scarce, and some farmers immediately opened the door with the lights and tied the dogs, and pointed to the people who lit the lights in the east.

When I entered the courtyard, the gate was wide open, and in the middle of the hall was a simple new coffin, unpainted, as if it had been hastily built.

"When," Father Luo shouted with a yin gong, "I'm happy that God is home." ”

A middle-aged man on crutches walked out of the house, and when he saw his daughter coming home, he couldn't help but whimper, and at this moment there was a heart-rending cry in the inner room, and the villagers gradually gathered to the door.

Father Luo drove the female corpse directly into the hall, stood it behind the door, and then said: "Everyone, please stay away, we are going to change the clothes for the 'happy god'." ”

Youliang also stood in the courtyard with everyone, and people talked about how the girl of the Wu family was smart, capable, sensible and filial, and how such a good child could live so shortly, God was really unfair, and so on.

"Daddy Luo, the child's mother fell ill when she heard that Feng Jiao had an accident, and she couldn't get up from bed." The middle-aged man took out a stack of newly made clothes and said with a sad face.

Daddy Luo took it and nodded: "Let's go out." ”

Xiangxi people know the rules, and when the old man changes his clothes for the "happy god", he will never allow others to watch and peep, otherwise it is very easy to cause "shocking corpses".

Wu Fengjiao was hanged to death, so she couldn't wear a shroud, and the family prepared a new onion white cotton cloth, and the old clothes were not buttoned but tied with a small cloth belt, and the homonym "belt" means that there are successors.

Father Luo bolted the door, took off the palm leaf hat worn by the female corpse, peeled off the white robe, and put her down on the wooden board, and the father and son brought water and began to wash her body.
