Chapter 37: The Corpse Chaser

Looking at this corpse, I only smiled bitterly for a while, since we entered this Yin Yang Liubu Village, we have not met a living person, this is a corpse village at all.

Tofu, a kid with little tendons, didn't understand that the person in front of him was a corpse, so he stabbed the person on the bed with the tripod in his hand, and said politely: "Old man, wake up." ”

I said, "Don't be so polite. With that, with the things in his hand, the corpse lying on its side was lying over, with a dry black and purple face, sunken eyes, and no face at all, the only clothes on his body could be recognized, that is, the old man who had taken us in.

As the corpse turned over, there was a crisp sound of bells, but it was the corpse holding a copper-yellow bell in its hand, exactly the same as I had seen before.

Could it be that the ghost of this corpse was talking to me at that time?

I shudder at the thought of this possibility. However, as soon as the bell rang, the group of corpses that crashed outside the door suddenly quieted down, blocked straight outside, and never moved again.

Gu Wenmin frowned slightly, a little puzzled, staring at the door with dark eyes, then turned his head and said in a low voice: "What's the matter?" ”

Tofu has always had a rich imagination and said, "The eve of a storm is quiet." I think they're definitely waiting for the skill to cool down before they release their killer moves. ”

I said: ", let you usually play less online games, you just don't listen, what skills are cooling...... In my opinion, eighty percent is the reason for this bell. As soon as the bell rang, the corpses outside stopped, which was a bit of a coincidence, and it was even more strange to think of the old man ringing the bell in the middle of the night.

As soon as I thought so, I bent down and carefully pulled the bell out of the corpse's hand, and the tofu next to me immediately gathered the flashlight on the bell. The four of us observed together and found that the surface of the bell was engraved with many things like Taoist runes, but the inner core of the bell was very strange, it was a strange human head shape, with a large face, eyes like copper bells, and fangs in the mouth, like a demon.

If I was a little unclear when I saw the bell at the beginning, then I understood it when I saw its bell core at the moment, and said to everyone: "You should all know about Xiangxi chasing corpses, right?" ”

Tofu said: "I know, it is often ......written in movies and novels" He was still bright in his head at this time, and he reacted violently and said: "Could it be that this corpse is a corpse chaser?" ”

I nodded.

Gu Wenmin looked a little skeptical and asked, "How did you know?" ”

I pointed to the bell, motioned for them to look at the bell core, and said, "In movies and novels, it is true that the matter of driving corpses in Xiangxi is often mentioned. But most of them have artistic exaggerations, and a lot of the places are fictional. In fact, the real expulsion of corpses, which is very important, is not enough to say in one day and one night. ”

Xiangxi is a multi-ethnic gathering place, and there are many ethnic minorities, and driving out corpses is a kind of witch culture belonging to the Miao people.

As we all know, the Miao people make good use of Gu poison, and the corpse and Gu poison Miao Luohua Cave Girl are called the 'three evils' in Xiangxi.

It is said that they hold a soul bell in their hands and beat a small gong and drum, and the corpse will follow behind the corpse chaser and wade through mountains and rivers to return to their hometown.

The person who chased the corpse was a mage in a Taoist robe. In front of these corpses, draped in black corpse cloth, there is a living person, known locally as the "corpse chaser".

No matter how many corpses there were, they were driven by a corpse chaser, resting during the day and on the road at night.

On the way to drive the corpse, there is also a "dead corpse village shop" to rest, this mysterious "dead corpse village shop", only the dead corpse and the corpse chaser, ordinary people do not live. Its doors are open all year round.

The corpse chaser drove the corpse, arrived at the "corpse shop" before dawn, and quietly left at night.

Among them, it is divided into 'three rushes, three not rushes'.

Those who were beheaded, those who were hanged, and those who stood in cages and died, were to be driven out.

Because all three types of people were forced to die, and they died unconvinced. I miss both my hometown and my relatives. You can use spells to lure their souls, use charms to calm their corpses, and then use spells to drive them to climb mountains and mountains, and even get on a boat and cross the water to return to their hometown.

Those who die of illness, those who die voluntarily by hanging their necks by throwing themselves into the river, and those whose limbs are incomplete by thunder and fire cannot be rushed.

Among them, the souls of those who died of illness have been swept away by Hades, and their souls cannot be summoned back from the Ghost Gate;

The souls of those who throw themselves into the river are "replaced", and they may be in the process of handing over, if the new souls are recruited, the old souls cannot be replaced, and the reincarnation of the old souls will be affected;

In addition, those who died by lightning were all guilty of great sins, and those who were burned by the fire were often incomplete and could not be driven away

Among them, all kinds of exquisiteness have gone to the sea, and I can't say enough for a while.

When Gu Wenmin heard this, he looked at the corpses piled up outside our door, and suddenly exclaimed: "Could it be that this Yin Yang Liubu Village is actually a corpse chasing village shop?" ”

Tofu was dumbfounded when he heard this, and asked: "Perverted Chen, you still don't admit that you are perverted, who in the ordinary world will know these things?" How do you think this old man is a corpse chaser? ”

I said in my heart: Tomb robbers and corpse chasers are dealing with corpses, and when two groups of people meet, the tomb robbers have a heavy yin qi, and it is easy to disturb the corpse of the corpse chaser. Therefore, in the mushroom digging industry, there is another rule: those who dig mushrooms in the bucket must avoid it quickly when they see the corpse chaser, and they must not show their faces.

Otherwise, the corpse driven by the corpse chaser will be disturbed by the yin qi on the tomb robbers, and the corpse will pounce on people, which is recorded in the grandfather's work notes.

Of course, I can't say it explicitly, after all, Gu Wenmin and Mao Rooster are here, so I said to Tofu; "I'm a person who loves to learn, and when you're usually playing games, don't I learn knowledge? If you know a little more than you, you kid won't be convinced. As for how I saw it, it's very simple, you look at the shape of this bell core, this is the shape of a 'fierce Yama'. Legend has it that in the underworld, the ghosts are driven across the Huangquan Road, and where the ghosts go, the ghosts have to go. There are two kinds of soul bells, and one of them has a bell core, which is in the shape of a 'fierce Yama', and it can't be wrong. ”

Mao Rooster is a local, and he also knows more about driving corpses, so he broke out in a cold sweat when he heard the words, and said: "It's difficult, no wonder it's called here...... It is called Yin and Yin Yang Liubu Village, which was originally a village where dead people lived. I, I see this corpse chaser, Ken, must have died here accidentally...... Here, the corpses outside...... The corpse, maybe it will be ...... It's just that he didn't rush back and go back. ”

When he said this, I remembered hearing the old man rattle the bell in the middle of the night, and thought: Could it be that this old man's work has not been completed, and he is unwilling, so the ghost refuses to leave, and rings the bell every night to drive away the corpse?

The corpses were clearly walking out of the village before they found us.

It's a pity that this corpse chaser is dead, according to legend, the ghost who died can't leave the place where he died, and the corpse left by this Yin Yang Liubu Village, he may never be able to drive it back.

Back then, the old man took the corpse to rest in Yinyang Liubu Village, what happened to make him die suddenly, a qiē is already an unsolvable mystery, and we are powerless to explore.

Tofu has always been soft-hearted, and when he heard this, he said to the corpse of the corpse chaser: "Old man, we have no intention of offending, and we also know that you died unjustly, and when I return home, I will definitely make you a water and land dojo to surpass you." But before that, I have to ask you to save us, raise your noble hand, shake the bell again, and drive all the zombies outside back to sleep, grateful, grateful, Amitabha, Hallelujah, Amen. ”

I thought of several other corpses in modern clothes that I found in the corpses before, and thought: We should not be outsiders who came to this Yinyang Liubu Village for the first time, those corpses are all wearing mountaineering clothes, I think it is similar to our experience, it should be a mountaineering team, lost and lived in the village, I think it was killed by those corpses, and became a part of it.

If you don't find a way to escape, the next group of people who come here will see the four of us in the corpse group.

Thinking of this, the little sympathy I had for the old man was gone, and he really deserved to hurt others when he died.

Knowing the ins and outs of the matter, the panic in everyone's hearts decreased a lot, Gu Wenmin said: "In this way, these corpses are restricted by the corpse chasers, and they can't get out of the village, let's follow the original plan and see if we can jump out from the back." ”

I nodded in agreement, and placed the bell on the table next to me, thinking to myself that the corpse couldn't hold the dementor bell and see what it was doing. Immediately after that, I started looking for things like windows in the bedroom.
