Chapter 316: Disaster Descends from the Top
At night, the old bathhouse was relatively empty and quiet, and the water in the two pools was almost cold, so the splashing pool felt a little cold. The flame of the oil lamp swayed slightly with the breath, shining the shadows of several people around the wall, and they surrounded a strange person in the middle, and they were nervous and did not dare to come out a little.
Hu Da covered his neck and coughed violently a few times, then knelt on the ground and pouted his ass and shouted: "Hey, I said, if you fuck come back a little later, I'll let him strangle him to death!" Fucking peeking at Lao Tzu taking a bath and killing people! Wait for me to recover and see if I don't hammer him to death! ”
The sixth child cautiously took a step back, and without looking back, he said directly to Hu Dabao: "I guess you can't kill him if you touch the second brother, this is a dead man!" ”
"Dead people? ! Didn't you see what virtue he had just done to pinch me? I'm about to let him pinch this neck! Hu Da was lying on the ground and yelling.
Looking for the light of the oil lamp, there are indeed blue and purple handprints on Hu Da's neck, which looks very hard, but fortunately, Hu Da's neck is almost as thick as his head, and he can resist for a while.
But at this time, this man was already like the walking corpse when he was doing white things, and his dirty clothes were standing on his body, and he could clearly see that the limbs inside had slowly become shriveled, and his black face had become the skull of a dried corpse, which was the appearance of the candle after it was extinguished.
Seeing this, the fourth brother hurriedly beckoned a few brothers, and asked them to see if there was a strange little thing around, like a candle, and after he finished speaking, he himself walked around with a candle, but he searched all over the place, and there was nothing in the bathhouse. There really wasn't anything to discover. But the fourth child was very persistent and said that there must be a small candle, which may have been extinguished by the pool water just now, so this walking corpse dried up and died completely.
But there is really nothing, and the fourth child asked Hu Dawei a little discouraged what was going on. How did you bring this walking corpse down from above?
Hu Dafang rubbed his arm a little cold and said, "How the hell do I know!" It's frustrating! I heard footsteps overhead, and before I could react, the guy fell down with a pop. At the time, I thought it was the roof of the old house that collapsed, which Cheng thought that it was a person who fell, and jumped out of the pool directly and grabbed my neck and pressed it to the ground. I died before I could hammer? ”
After listening to Hu Dajiao's words, the fourth child walked to the shriveled corpse and slowly squatted down, covering his rib bones and inhaling the cool air, holding back the pain and asking Xiao Qi to help hold the oil lamp. He leaned in to find out how the man had died, and how he had managed to get to the roof.
But when I got closer and took a closer look, the man had been dead for a month, but the body was not completely decomposed, and it seemed to look like a dehydrated dried corpse. It's strange to see this, it stands to reason that in the current climate, the corpse will not be left for many days to decompose, and it is impossible for it to appear like this. But think of the resurrection of the dead. The fourth child looked up at the place where the walking corpse had fallen and made a discovery.
The old bathhouse was built at the end of the Qing Dynasty. The house is not big, but the roof is quite high. From the outside, the roof is flat, but inside it is the round sky that the ancients paid attention to, and the roof of the shed is arc-shaped so that the water vapor does not accumulate on it, and flows away along the side walls, and the pool is square. This is the round sky. But at that time, I still didn't know how to be waterproof, and the roof of the shed was plastered with ash, but the water vapor entered the inside along the cracks of the ash, and after a long time, the roof of the shed naturally contained water, and it became very weak. The flat roof can't withstand much gravity, just like the current situation, the person stepped on a few steps and fell directly out of a hole. But now a strange question arises, how did this walking corpse get to the big roof? Didn't you climb up? Or this person had been dead on the roof for a long time, but he happened to be brought back to life today, and he got up from the roof, but he didn't take a few steps and broke the roof and fell into the pool.
The brothers squatted in the bathhouse and studied for a long time, and then they felt a little cold, so they planned to retreat first and stay at the counter outside. But before they could get up and leave, they saw the old man Bai lying on the door frame looking at the dead man on the ground, and suddenly trembled with fright, and then cried, and even crawled and ran over, and pounced directly on the shriveled corpse, crying bitterly and shouting: "I thought you were gone!" How did you die here! ”
The fourth child took an oil lamp to help him illuminate, and then asked him in a low voice Who is this person? Do you know?
The old man said with a handful of snot and tears: "This is my son!" He went to play a while ago and never came back, so why did he die in the bathhouse! ”
Hu Dabao hurried over and said, "Hey, I said! This your son? He didn't die in the bathhouse, he fell from above, and almost used me as a backrest, hey, you said he died there."
Before he finished speaking, he was taken out by his brothers, and asked him to shut up and get dressed, and the fourth squatted behind the old man Bai, and he didn't know what to say. Maybe it's providence and coincidence, if this dead man doesn't live, then his son will definitely not be able to fall, it is estimated that he will be used as fertilizer for weeds on the roof of the house, and there will be bones and sticks left in the future, let alone recognize relatives, even if he recognizes bones, he can't tell who it is!
The fourth child was thinking in his heart, and found that his brothers had already gone out, and he planned to leave the oil lamp out and ask Lao Wu what to do. But the fourth child just stood up with great difficulty, and before he could turn around completely, he suddenly saw a bright spot on the shoulder of the old man Bai, which was not very conspicuous in the reflection of the flame of the oil lamp, but at this angle of the fourth child, it happened to be under the dark background for him to see clearly, it was something like a small dark candle, and the flame the size of a bean was still burning well.
At the same time as he noticed a small flame on the old man's shoulder, the old man's crying stopped, and he held the dead body motionless, the oil lamp could only illuminate his back, and the rest of the place was black. The fourth child stood in place and didn't dare to move, his eyes staring at the small bean-like flame and stunned. But when he reacted, the old man's body trembled slightly, accompanied by a low laugh, and suddenly turned his face around, this is still the old man Bai, this is clearly the sunken face of the walking corpse skeleton that fell!
