Chapter 43: Corpse Oil

The fourth child was covered in black filth and fishy smell, his cheeks were on the ground and he inhaled heavily, his heart was beating wildly, and the whole brain was hurting as if it was about to explode, but fortunately there was a hard and damp ground under him, and the cool air rushed to the brain to relieve some of the pain of the fourth. After a little relief, he struggled to sit up, reached out and touched the brick wall behind him, then leaned over and tilted his head to look around.

Everything that happened just now was too sudden, the fourth didn't understand what was going on, he was already deep here, in the dim light, he vaguely saw that there seemed to be someone around him, but he couldn't fully adapt to the dim light here, he could only roughly see that he was in a narrow passage, there were a few black shadows shaking around, and suddenly there was a sound of the third coughing violently, the cough was heart-rending as if he was going to vomit out his lungs, the fourth was a little nervous and just wanted to squat up and grope the past, and before he got up, a hand held him down.

"Hey, don't move, you're rubbing my dirt and I don't have a place to wash."

The fourth child was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then asked in surprise: "Old Wu?" Hey, didn't you fall into the hole of the grave? Why are you here? Ay? Where is this? ”

Before the words landed, he began to tremble violently in the hallway, and there was a sound of a huge object running over his head, and the sound of the trees being broken and broken in the ground was like a ghost crying wolf, and the unprecedented pressure in the air hit the eardrums of the fourth child, and his face twitched, just to let people find a place to get in and avoid the sound of fear.

The fourth brother covered his ears with his hands, and shouted with grinning teeth: "It's over, our brothers are going to explain here today!" ”

The fourth child wanted to continue, but suddenly someone hit him on the head, and when he opened his eyes, he could see clearly that it was Lao Wu who patted him with his hand, and then he found that Xiao Qi was still sitting next to him.

I saw that Xiao Qi's face was pale and his whole body was shaking, and his breath was also very weak, giving people a feeling of more breath and less intake, and he was about to return. The fourth child first saw the embarrassment of these two people and wondered in his heart, but then he thought that there were several miles away from the cave in the grave slope, how could these two people still come out of here?

I thought so much in my heart and said it in my mouth, he was originally asking Lao Wu, but the sound on his head was huge, only to see people open their mouths and not listen to the sound, all ears were like breathing, uncomfortable, the fourth said a word Lao Wu didn't hear it at all, he just picked the dirty things in the third child's mouth, accidentally pressed the root of the third child's tongue and spit him out, was patting the third child to give him a good breath, at this time the black torrent rushed through the hillside overhead, carrying a lot of trees and dirt, the sound was very loud, he couldn't hear the fourth child speak, he could only take care of the third child first.

Xiao Qi could faintly hear the fourth child speak, he raised his head and bared his teeth and smiled: "Fourth brother, you, your life is really big enough, why is it so coincidental?" It just so happened that Brother Wu and I were walking below and heard you shouting that you are still a good man after eighteen years, not to mention that it is really true, like the good man that the storyteller said, that is, it would be better if you don't tremble when you speak. Xiao Qi finished speaking breathlessly, and lowered his head again.

At this time, the trembling of the tunnel had slowly stopped, and the fourth child was shocked and put his head over to see Xiao Qi's injuries clearly, and saw that Lao Wu, who was busy with work, was injured, so he asked, "What did you encounter here?" Didn't you fall into that hole? Why did you get here? Where is this? The third brother is still waiting for the entrance of the cave. ”

Said that Lao Wu patted the third child on the back to dredge his breath, he was tired and covered with sweat, the sweat dripping on the wound hot pain, he shook his hand The smelly black filth walked to the fourth child and sat against the wall, groped out a few rolled old dry cigarettes in his pocket, and stuffed one in his mouth and one on the fourth child's mouth, but found that there was no fire on his body, and he smiled and spit out the old dry tobacco roll in his mouth.

Lao Wu spit a few mouthfuls of saliva in his hand and rubbed the dirty things on his hands, and when he turned his head, he saw the fourth man holding a cigarette and looking at him in a daze, only to remember that this buddy was still waiting for him to speak, and blew off the ash roll in his hand and said: "Xiao Qi and I are really guilty, first my mother fell into the hole and fell half to death, and then rolled down a sloping ramp, I was knocked unconscious, and when I woke up, there was a rat poison mouse face who was dragging my arm and gnawing it, this guy almost scared me to death, Let me pick up the brick on the ground and smash his head flat, and when I found Xiao Qi, he was also gnawed by a mouse face, and I smashed a head flat in a hurry. Later, we originally wanted to go up from the entrance of the cave, but there was a lot of moss growing on the slope, even if Xiao Qi and I were not injured, it was impossible to climb up, so we could only walk along the tunnel to find the exit, but on the way, we heard a loud noise from above and shook the mountain, and then you were shouting, you two lives are big enough, why is it so coincidental that you happened to sit on the exit, let me stretch out my arms and drag in, otherwise listen to the movement just now, you don't even have a whole corpse. ”

After Lao Wu finished speaking, everyone else laughed except for the third child who was still faint, and the fourth child laughed with a cigarette that was not lit, and Lao Wu touched his pocket with both hands and sighed: "It's a pity that there is no fire now, otherwise it will be hard to smoke a cigarette." After Lao Wu said this, he saw that the fourth child was covered in black and smelly, and he asked: "Hey, I said what are you all here, why are you like falling into a dung pit." ”

At this time, the fourth child remembered that he was covered with black filth, and the fishy smell was pungent, so he quickly took off his clothes and pants, wiped his face with slightly cleaner clothes, and threw it aside, listening to Lao Wu ask what was on his body, he went from seeing the smoke on the mountain to the black mud falling from the sky, and then until the black smoke column fell down and smashed on the hillside, almost killing their brothers.

After hearing this, Lao Wu was like dementia, his eyes looked straight at the fourth, and he didn't close his mouth for a long time, and then the whole person was a clever person, spitting on his hands, and then rubbing like crazy, as if he wanted to get rid of the black filth on his hands, but the black filth was like a kind of grease, and it was very greasy and sticky on the body, and it was enough to choke and wipe off with water, but Lao Wu's red eyes almost didn't rub his hands to peel off, and the fourth child saw this and hurriedly stopped him and asked what was wrong? Isn't it just a little dirty, and when you go back to wash it with water, it's over, and then you rub it down, and your hands will be gone.

But Lao Wu didn't listen to what the fourth child said at all, and still rubbed the black thing on his hand on his clothes, and muttered in his mouth: "You know a fart, this is fucking corpse oil, which is the kind of corpse oil condensed by the corpse qi formed by the gathering of too many dead people." ”

Lao Wu once heard something that impressed him very deeply, and he still remembers it to this day. It was in the west of southern Hunan in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, there was such a small village, the whole village had more than 200 households, originally this was a very ordinary village, and the villagers made a living by hunting and farming.

There is a young man in the village whose surname is He, the second in the family, so his nickname is He Er, who is idle on weekdays, does not give birth, and likes to humiliate other people's mothers-in-law, and is often chased and beaten by the villagers. Once, while the men of a family were not hunting, he broke into the house to humiliate the daughter-in-law of the family, but the man of the family brought less bows and arrows, and turned around halfway to go home to get it, and happened to bump into He Er in his house did not do a good thing, the man pulled out the firewood knife behind his back and was about to chop him, but this He Er jumped out of the window, but he didn't expect the man to pull the bow and shoot through his calf, since then he dragged his lame leg to hide in the mountains to survive, and used the night to go back to the village to steal some things to live, The whole village hated him to the core, and if they caught him, they would have to beat him to death.

said that one day this He Er was hungry in the mountains, so he wanted to dig some ground fruits, bamboo shoots and the like to fill his stomach. So he dug everywhere, and dug up a corpse under the root of a stout uncle, and the corpse looked very frightened, and it looked like it had been dead for some years, and the body was still highly decomposed, but it could be seen that it was a man.

He didn't eat for two days, and when he saw that this corpse was so disgusting, he couldn't help but squat on the side and retch. His stomach was empty, and he could only vomit some sour water. After vomiting, I was a little scared when I saw the corpse, and I wanted to run away, but this unlucky person with sharp eyes was not the right time, and I saw that the corpse was wearing ornaments on its neck and hands. He Er's heart was raised, and he forgot to be afraid, so he walked to the dead corpse with a limp, squatted down and looked carefully.

Although the corpse was rotten and inhuman, it seemed that there was still a piece of yellow paper on its head, which had not formed for a long time and melted into the face of the dead corpse, and it looked like a yellow piece. Just now, He Er saw that the dead corpse was wearing ornaments, but it was actually just some yellow rope, which looked like gold from a distance.

But He Er was unwilling, and rummaged through the corpse's body for a long time, but there was nothing of value, He Er was still faint and weak in his limbs because of the smell of decay on the corpse's body, he felt that something was wrong, and quickly buried the corpse, and went to other places to continue looking for food.

Since He Er saw the dead corpse, the whole person was like smoking a big cigarette, getting thinner and weaker day by day, the teeth full of teeth had also turned gray and black, and a mouth was full of stink, and the smell was like the smell of the corpse rotting, as if it had been poisoned by the corpse.

After a month, this He Er has not come down to steal anything, the big guy thought that this scourge might have died on the mountain, and he was quite happy, but at this time, he saw He Er limping down the mountain, and went to the village to find someone to take him to the county seat to see Langzhong, these villagers have suffered his losses, and no one wants to help him.

At this time, an elder in the village said: "Don't mention the past, then how can He Er be a scoundrel who is also from our village, we can't see death without help." ”

The old man had a good heart, and when he saw He Er's pity for him, he also took him home to wash off the plaster on his body, and let him eat something, no one thought that He Er was a little better and wanted to humiliate the elder's daughter.

At that time, the elder went out at night to get firewood and came back to burn, and when he just entered the house with firewood, he heard a strange movement in his daughter's house, and the elder hurriedly rushed into the house, and saw He Er pressing on his daughter, as if he wanted to humiliate her.

But just as the old man was about to start, he suddenly saw a lot of blood stains on the kang, and he was also stunned and slowed down by half a beat. He Er seemed to hear the movement behind him, raised his body and slowly turned around.

When the elder saw He Er's appearance, he was immediately frightened, and the crotch of his pants ran out of water, and a soft firewood fell to the ground in his hand.

He Er's face was ruthless at the moment, his eyes were completely a black ball, his mouth was full of blood, and he was chewing something in his mouth. Looking at the elder's daughter, she was lying on the kang with her eyes blank, a large piece of her neck was torn open, and blood kept spurting out.
