Chapter 262: Strange Corpse

I wanted to ask Xiao Lei something, but I opened my mouth a few times, but I didn't say anything, and at this moment, suddenly, Xiao Lei said to me without twisting his head: "Xiao Ming, look, this old lady standing above is actually a corpse."

Is it a corpse? How could it be so lifelike, just like a living person, especially on her face, there was still a strange smile on her face, how could there be a smile on the face of a dead man? This is too rare, because when people die, they are often in pain, how can they laugh?

But when I was a child, I heard my grandfather say that people who freeze to death often have a smile on their faces. Later, after checking the book, I learned that my grandfather's statement is very scientific - because people are very uncomfortable at the very low temperature, but after a long time, when they are on the verge of death, they will hallucinate, and this hallucination is often that they feel that they are roasting the fire, so a smile will appear on their faces.

But to see a dead man smiling, it was terrifying.

My voice trembled a little and asked Xiao Lei: "This cave is impossible for ordinary people to enter, how can such a strange corpse appear?" Xiao Lei pondered for a while, and then said faintly: "Is this the Zhang family", he seemed to be talking to himself, and seemed to be saying to me, but I heard it clearly, listening to him say this, I had a feeling of opening up - yes, this cave was originally the tomb of the Zhang family! Why didn't I think of that?

But even if the weird corpse above is Zhang, why is she buried in such a strange posture?

I plucked up the courage and glanced at the corpse on the rock wall a few times, but I still didn't dare to look at the strange face of the corpse, under the illumination of the strong flashlight, the clothes on the body of this strange dead corpse looked very bright and new, if it was really Zhang's, it would have been dead for three hundred years, not only the corpse had not decayed at all, but even the shroud on the body was so new, it was a bit incredible, but if you think about it carefully, you will feel that this is not strange, because the environment of this cave is too special.

Even those corpses of the Qin Dynasty can turn into zombie-like things under the special yin and yang qi in the cave, and they can also kill people, not to mention the old lady Zhang who has just died for more than 300 years.

Just when I was in a bit of a trance and at a loss, I suddenly heard Xiao Lei shout hurriedly: "Xiao Ming, look, the smile on the face of the dead corpse is gone!" Hearing Xiao Lei say this, I suddenly got goosebumps, and reflexively glanced at the face of the dead corpse - oh my God! Sure enough, the smile on the face of the dead corpse had long since disappeared, replaced by an angry face, only the big eyes without a trace of life, still looking straight into the distance, was she not dead!

But that weird face and this shroud are really terrifying! I quickly lowered my head, not wanting to look at it more.

I can't care too much about it now, so I immediately walked next to Xiao Lei from the dark hideout, and whispered in his ear with a little trembling voice: "Could she still be alive?" ”

"No, you see, the nose and mouth of the corpse are covered with a dense spider web, I have carefully observed for a long time, and the spider web not only does not tremble at all, but there are also small spiders that burrow into the nose of the corpse, and if she is really alive, she must be breathing, so the spider web must tremble, and if the spider gets into the nose, it will not be unresponsive to a living person."

Xiao Lei said it so calmly, but I listened to it creepy and a little disgusting, but I never wanted to look at the corpse's face again. However, according to Xiao Lei's description, this old lady should indeed be dead, so why can the expression on her face still change, is it like those murderous ancient corpses of the Qin Dynasty, turned into something like a zombie?

But I remember my cousin saying that this kind of corpse that has been affected by the special yin and yang qi and turned into a zombie will not have expressions. But what about this old lady?

As if he remembered something, Xiao Lei picked up a stone the size of half an egg from the side and gently smashed it at this strange corpse. I can see that Xiao Lei doesn't use much force.

Out of curiosity, I forgot my fear for a moment, and looked in the direction of the stone, which was impartial, and hit the corpse's nose and mouth, that is, at the moment of hitting the mouth, I seemed to faintly hear an "ah", the sound was not loud, if there was any, I was not sure if it was my hallucination.

But what I know for sure is that the original sallow, wrinkled face was replaced by a painful expression, and then, even more terrifyingly, a red liquid flowed from the corpse's nose - oh my God, is that blood!?

I looked at Xiao Lei next to me and saw that he was also surprised. Neither of us could understand the qiē we saw, it was too contradictory and too weird.

I stood there in a daze, because in a short period of time, seeing so many incomprehensible but very terrifying scenes, I felt that I was shocked, and my brain was a little wooden.

Xiao Lei's state is very different from mine - although he is also surprised by the qiē in front of him, he still maintains a high degree of vigilance, always paying attention to the qiē around him, and will look at the corpse worm in the bottle from time to time - as long as the color of the corpse worm in this bottle changes, it means that the tall blind man is around, therefore, with this "magic weapon", the high blind man will not want to sneak attack us. It is rare that in this case, Xiao Lei can still maintain this sober vigilance.

At the critical moment, I feel that my psychological elements are still not good, as soon as I am frightened, my thinking and reaction will be affected by Yanzhòng, alas, I have to learn more like Xiaolei.

When I was thinking wildly, suddenly, Xiao Lei exclaimed again: "Xiao Ming, look at the corpse worm in the bottle", his words made me feel excited, so I hurriedly looked down, I saw the most amazing scene in my life - I saw that under the light of the flashlight, the maggot-like corpse worm in the bottle, as if stimulated by something, the body was writhing extremely violently, and some even the whole body bounced, for a while, the bottle was a bit like fried beans in a pot, crackling and jumping. After about a minute, the epidermis of some corpse insects slowly hardened and turned yellow.

"Are these corpse insects turning into chrysalis", Xiao Lei reminded me, and I suddenly realized - that's right, they are turning into chrysalis.

When maggots become pupae, they turn into flies, and it is not known what this corpse worm will eventually turn into when it becomes a pupae. The two of us watched with bated breath to see what strange things were going to happen next.

These corpse insects change very quickly, and I suddenly have the feeling of watching science and education movies - in those movies, whether it is the process of flowers blooming or the growth process of insects, they are all presented quickly with fast movements, and now I have that feeling.

At this time, in just two or three minutes, there were already several corpse insects, which had completely turned into pupa, and other corpse insects were also experiencing the same change, just a little slower, some had already turned into half of the chrysalis, and some had just begun to change.

In this little glass bottle, the most incredible biological changes are taking place, and if only Sister Li's cousin, the microbiologist Yang Hui, was also present, he might be able to explain what was going on.

Next, the corpse insects that first turned into pupae underwent even more wonderful changes.

Their chrysalis are trembling slightly, and the tremor is getting worse and worse, at this time, Xiao Lei and I can't help but open our eyes wide, open our mouths wide, and don't even dare to blink our eyes, for fear of missing any detail, with a very complicated mood, speculating about what strange things will crawl out of these chrysalis.

Suddenly, the chrysalis that shook the most finally cracked a gap, Xiao Lei gently put the bottle on a flat stone, and then shined a flashlight on the bottle, both of us couldn't help but bend down and bow our heads, our eyes almost on the bottle, carefully looking at the cracked chrysalis crawling out of the thing.

On that chrysalis, the crack is getting bigger and bigger, and something slowly sticks out of it, and under the dazzling flashlight, we can clearly see something that surprises us - the first thing that pokes out of the shell is only the size of a fingernail, but the creepy thing is that on this thing the size of a fingernail, there are facial features similar to those of a human!

Although I have heard of "human face worms" and the like before, and even in Feng Shui masters, I saw one of the largest corpse insects, and there was the same "facial features" - but that "facial features" were still not very clear.

And today, when we are so close to each other, we can see such a clear, face-like thing, and the shock is really difficult to express in words.

Immediately after, the crack continued to crack, and the small "face" was completely squeezed out of the chrysalis shell, followed by the body, and when the chrysalis shell was completely cracked, the two of us could see clearly what it was - it was a strange flying insect with butterfly-like wings, but with a "human face" on its head, its body was very similar to a dragonfly, but its wings were as colorful as a butterfly, plus that strange face, it made people shudder.

After the strange thing crawled out of the chrysalis completely, it flapped its wings a few times, but it may have been because the wings were too tender and did not fly, but it did not seem to be deflated, but the wings flapped even more, and soon, it flew up in the bottle, and flew faster and faster, and also flew to the wall of the bottle, lying there, through the glass, with its ugly strange face, looking at the two of us.

I was so frightened that I quickly withdrew, not daring to look face to face with it, but Xiao Lei was unaffected, still leaning over and observing carefully.

Grandma drops, what kind of monster is this!

Successively, more and more corpse insects have become this kind of "human face flying insects", and flying around in the bottle, Xiao Lei suddenly straightened up, he opened his backpack, quickly took out two clothes from the bag, and threw one over for me to put on quickly, and he himself quickly put on one, I can't figure out what medicine he sells in the gourd, but I know that there must be a reason for him to do this, so I didn't ask the reason again, so I put the dress on his body according to his request.
