Chapter 29: Killed

Just when a few people from the militia were about to leave the Zhang family's house, suddenly a human figure came out of the curtain of the West House, which completely shocked the few people present.

The door curtain is like a thick quilt like something nailed to the door frame, not only thick but also very heavy, after touching it with your hands, it feels very dirty, there seems to be a layer of black viscous filth, and the door curtain has been hanging for a long time, the cotton wool inside has been dirty and hardened, like a door panel, can only be lifted from one side, and it is almost impossible to come out of the middle position. said that when the black egg saw the paper man sit up, he came out with the cat's waist and his face against the bottom of the door curtain, and his face was also rubbed with a layer of black things, because it was dark and his face was already very dark, so it was not seen.

This curtain was shot by a person who was stunned just now, and shot out several holes, two of which hit together, knocking over the cotton wool and weeds stuffed in the thick curtain to form a fist-sized hole, and the people outside could just see from this hole that the thing on the top of the curtain seemed to be wearing red clothes.

Now I can understand that it is really the paper man in the wedding robe who is alive, and he is frightened and keeps retreating, and he is still muttering: "Oh, my mother is here, don't come out." ”

But the more they shouted at the paper man in the West House, the more they wanted to come out, and they were about to open the thick door curtain, and the captain originally stepped aside, looking at the paper man behind the door curtain was about to come out, and he was also scared and shouted out several times, but then he felt that something was wrong. The thing behind the curtain was too high, and the reason why he didn't come out immediately seemed to be because his head was on the strongest spot on the top of the curtain, stuck in that half a day and then slowly slid down, and then came out from behind the curtain.

At this moment, the captain was a little curious, he felt that the thing behind the door should not be some paper man who was pushing the door curtain, but a big thing leaning on it, because the door curtain was very thick, maybe the two nails were also firm, so it was not broken, so that the thing poured out, thinking of this, picked up the rifle in his hand and smashed the upper corner of the door curtain.

The others were first frightened because something was pushing out of the human form behind the door curtain, and they had already begun to run outside, when they suddenly heard a muffled sound of smashing things behind them, and when they turned around, they saw the captain holding a gun and smashing the door curtain, as if he wanted to smash the door curtain.

Several people hurriedly shouted to him: "You are crazy, run away, what are you doing?" Come on, it's coming out! ”

The captain ignored them, and smashed the door curtain with the butt of the rifle in his hand, but he didn't expect to be so strong that he smashed the door beam, and the things in the west room poured out according to the door curtain, and the things in the house smashed the whole door frame and curtain on the captain.

A pile of things fell to the ground with a muffled thud, smashing up a cloud of dust, and people who choked couldn't open their eyes.

The whole room was in a mess, the door frame was splashed out in several sections, and it was hard to see because it was dark, but there was a patch of red where the curtain had fallen, and it was still moving.

When the others touched the darkness and looked over, a bunch of things were pressed on the captain's body, and he couldn't breathe, his hands were still pressing hard, and every breath drove the things pressed on his body.

A few people hurriedly took the handle and tried to take the pile of things off the captain's body, and a man with a bright child on his body tore off a large piece of cloth from the thick door curtain, picked up a piece of door frame and tied it to it, and then lit it for a while, but just when he wanted to reach over to see what pushed the whole door frame, the firelight actually illuminated a big mouse face, and the appearance of the thief's eyebrows and mouse eyes startled everyone, but then they all stopped and stared at the mouse face and were stunned.

The captain was really unable to stand the pressure, and when he turned his head to see that the gang were still standing stupidly on the side, he wanted to call them to help him quickly, but he was about to be crushed to death.

But before he could say anything, he heard someone say, "Isn't this the big rat clay statue offered in the Houtang Temple?" ”

This sentence stunned the captain, and he raised his head with great difficulty to look at his body, and his heart was shocked that it was really a clay statue of a human rat head in the back temple. Because this clay statue with a mouse head is still covered with red cloth, it looks like a big red wedding dress of a paper man's daughter-in-law in the hole in the door curtain, but how did this thing suddenly come to the West House from the back temple? Besides, what is the three-inch golden lotus behind the curtain, which is still like that?

After he finished thinking about it, he realized that the things on his body had been removed, but his legs hurt so badly that he seemed to be crushed, and several people picked him up and were about to walk out.

When they got outside, they remembered that there must have been several people outside, and after a few shots had been fired, it was reasonable that they would have heard it, and they should have come in, but it was always quiet outside, and it was not until they got the wounded captain out that they saw that there was no one outside, so they scolded the group of timid grandsons.

At this time, the captain was injured and his whole body was in pain, and he was helped to sit aside, and before anyone could ask about his injury, he said, "Oh, do you see clearly?" Is it that clay statue in the back hall temple that weighs me down, is it? ”

The others are not sure, they went to the back hall temple just stayed for a while because there was nothing to check and then returned to the front room, no one carefully looked at the clay statue of the human body and the head of the rat, at this time I heard the captain ask about this is also palpitations, why suddenly appeared a clay statue leaning on the door curtain, it stands to reason that there should be no one in the house, this thing can confuse them, they are really shocked and afraid, they are trembling by the night breeze, and they dare not stay longer to carry the captain down the mountain.

This thing seems to be quite evil, but the next day the militia came back, only to find that there is a secret door in the west house of this family house that can lead directly to the back hall temple, because it is very hidden, yesterday I didn't see it, after an investigation, someone deliberately scared them yesterday, and almost crushed the captain to death.

It is unknown who this person is and why he is doing this, but the people of the militia said that the biggest possibility is the missing Zhang family Laozi, but the clay statue in the Houtang Temple weighs two or three hundred pounds to say the least, and this ordinary person can't lift it, and it is impossible to quietly move to the Westinghouse to scare the people outside.

The people who came to investigate the militia were so troubled by these things that they not only did not find anything, but also lost a large box of bones. If you want to say that there is nothing to gain, just when you were about to give up checking the Zhang family's house, someone found a small box with exquisite workmanship from under the pedestal of the original clay statue of the human body rat head in the Houtang Temple, which contained something similar to a tablet, with a few big characters written on it.

"By the King's shilling."

No one knows this thing, and no one can tell what it is, but it was sent back to the county police force as the tablet of the ancestor of the Zhang family.

But something happened to the militia group, that day they went to check the Zhang family's house, and then because they were afraid, they didn't dare to go in, and those who were waiting outside disappeared, didn't go home, didn't go back to the bureau, didn't even go down the mountain, and several big people disappeared like this.

The disappearance of this law enforcement officer is a big deal, most likely it is to let people harm, but no one has seen it everywhere, and there is no way to send dozens of people to look for it in Bear's Ears Ridge, and finally find the bodies of those missing militia soldiers after more than ten days. The scene was particularly tragic, the missing people were stripped of their clothes and tied behind their backs, and those people seemed to be stabbed to death from behind with sharp weapons in a row, and the militia group hid this matter from the nearby villagers and did not know.

About the Zhang family's house, it is only said that they eat children, and other paper figures, human rat head clay statues, and all kinds of strange things are not mentioned, but when they process and bury the corpses of the militia soldiers, they found that one person is missing, and the black egg that said that the paper man sat up when the investigation was in the Zhang family's house was not among them, and his body was never found nearby.

It is said that the place where the corpses of the militia soldiers were found was on the soil slope under the pine forest on the west side of Bear's Ear Ridge, and that place would later be called Tomb Slope.

The captain, who was crushed by the mud statue of a rat's head, was very remorseful when he learned about it in the hospital, and he insisted on going back to the Zhang family's house to have a look, but he killed so many brothers.

After the captain recovered and was discharged from the hospital, he went to the brothers' homes in person, apologized one by one, left some money, and went to the cemetery where they were buried, swearing to God that he would find their murderers and one day avenge the brothers.

Then the captain kowtowed one by one in front of the brother's grave, and finally the house was the grave of the black egg, and the black egg disappeared with these dead people, and only one of his shoes and a bloody shirt were found nearby, which was already very unlucky, because the black egg was an orphan, and when he set up a grave in the future, he also made a grave in which only some clothes were buried.

The captain squatted on the ground and touched the name on the tombstone of the black egg, and unconsciously read it out of his mouth: "Zhang Mao." ”
