Volume 2 Tuoshi Ridge_Chapter 12 The Disappearing Corpse

A few of us walked cautiously for so long, the trendy man shouted that it should be the end, my heart instantly relaxed, in this tunnel is tense, it is really uncomfortable, I can't wait to go out and breathe a few breaths of fresh air now.

Because the trendy man walked in the front, he was closest to the exit, so I couldn't help but blurt out: "Trendy man, look at what is the place outside." ”

The trendy man turned his head and looked at me angrily, ", no wonder you usually call me to feed me, it turns out that you have been calling me such a nickname, and I can't help but call it out this time?" Master, I hate people calling me nicknames the most, remember it in the future, Jindian Long, Senior Brother Long, Uncle Long, you can choose one of the three, otherwise I will turn my face with you. ”

I blurted out that something was wrong, so I quickly changed my words and smiled, "Senior Brother Long, Uncle Long, don't worry about these small details, take a look at where it is outside, I'm not in a hurry to know......"

When he turned his head to look at the exit, I secretly warned myself that I must call him by name, and I must not call him casually anymore.

Seeing that I was still quite interesting, Jin Dianlong nodded with satisfaction, then walked a few steps to the exit, pushed away the stone at the exit and glanced at it, and then turned his head and shouted at us with an unexpected face, ", come and see, come and see where we are now,, it's really beyond my imagination!" ”

The cold man and I walked briskly behind him, wanting to see where the exit was that could surprise the Golden Palace Dragon so much.

When we leaned over to take a look, we were stunned: because we are now in a dry well!

This ancient well has been idle for a long time at a glance, the bottom of the well is clean and clean without the slightest silt and water stains, and there is nothing moss and other things that should be, but there is a row of steps that meander towards the ground in the place facing the exit of the tunnel, and at a glance you know that this dry well is specially used to cover the exit of the tunnel, and the row of steps is just convenient to enter and exit.

From the entrance of the tunnel on the abandoned corpse rock to the exit of the tunnel, everything shows that this tunnel is artificially dug, but it is hidden quite cautiously and secretly, if it is not for the cold man's heart, he may not be able to discover the existence of this tunnel.

So, what is the purpose of this tunnel? That's the biggest question on the minds of all three of us.

Jin Dianlong did not hesitate, and immediately said to us Let's wait first, he climbed up first to see if there was anyone outside.

He quickly climbed up, and when he climbed up, he turned his head and waved at us, and said in a low voice, "This tunnel leads to the village, we are in the village now, there is no one on it, you come up quickly...... Strange, what do they all run? ”

Jin Dianlong's last sentence was full of doubts, and after he finished talking to us, he stood up and walked a few steps forward, probably to see what was going on. The cold man and I glanced at each other, and without the slightest hesitation, immediately climbed up the steps to the ground, wondering what was going on.

The exit of the dry well was right on the street, and when we climbed up, the street was empty, except for a few figures who turned out of a few alleys, and then hurried towards a place, as if something big had happened.

The cold man only glanced at it, and immediately pulled out his feet and ran forward, and said in a low voice: "The direction they are going in is Wu Dahan's house!" ”

Wu Dahan's family is holding a funeral now, what happened?

After this thought flashed, Jin Dianlong and I immediately followed closely behind the cold man and ran towards Wu Dahan's house, and when we ran to Wu Dahan's house, there was already a large group of people at the door of his house, all of them were looking inside on their tiptoes, everyone had a look of curiosity and horror on their faces, they were talking in a low voice while watching, and the atmosphere was depressed and dignified.

What happened to the Wu family?

Knowing that the people in this village are very xenophobic, we didn't ask, but just gathered behind the crowd to listen to their discussions, and after listening for a while, we were also surprised: they said that the body of Wu Dahan's daughter-in-law was gone!

Moreover, the body disappeared inexplicably, and it was still lying in the house, but when someone went in to look at it again, they found that it was gone!

This exceeded our expectations!

Let's not mention that Wu Dahan's daughter-in-law is dead, and she won't move unless she cheats the corpse when she dies. Let's just say that Wu Dahan's family is holding a funeral now, there are so many people inside and out, even if this corpse is a corpse or something to get rid of the corpse, no one will see it!

But listening to their meaning, the corpse seemed to disappear as soon as he turned his head, and he didn't see anything abnormal.

That's weird.

After we looked at it for a while, the crowd around suddenly dispersed, and Wu Dahan's figure appeared in our sight, his face was full of sadness and exhaustion, and he shouted at the onlookers, "Fellow villagers, neighbors, I, Wu Dahan, am here to bow to you, if anyone of you sees my daughter-in-law, please show the way, the two of us have always been honest and duty, and never want to offend people, everyone will look at the fact that the two of us have always been kind people, help Dahan, right?" ”

He said this sincerely and humbly, coupled with the exhaustion and sadness he was now full of, the surrounding villagers were immediately moved, scattered one after another, and began to help Wu Dahan find a daughter-in-law.

After they dispersed, they soon found us standing at the back of the team, and one by one their eyes returned to the cautious and gloomy when they first saw us, only to see that we were uncomfortable all over, but fortunately, Wu Dahan greeted us, "Three little brothers, you, why did you come back so quickly?" ”

"Well, we searched for a long time, but we didn't find the legendary goddess, so I thought I'd come back and ask you for help. By the way, how could my sister-in-law disappear? "I was afraid that this group of villagers would see the strange appearance in my arms, so they immediately hugged Yoyo tightly, and made up a lie to deal with Wu Dahan, and soon turned to the question I wanted to know.

Wu Dahan didn't seem to be in the mood to pay attention to why we came back again, just sighed and said, "I don't know what's going on, I started the funeral today, according to the rules, your sister-in-law has been moved to the ground, and there have been two people guarding the house, and those two people happened to go out." But I just went out to the toilet, and when I came back, your sister-in-law was gone, don't you think it's strange? ”

We looked at each other, and we both saw doubts in each other's eyes.

After Wu Dahan finished speaking, the cold man asked him if he could go to see the situation in the house, Wu Dahan is now six gods and no master, and the cold man immediately agreed when he said this, and quickly let us into the courtyard and led us into the house.

The courtyard of Wu Dahan's house is empty now, and they should all go out to find his daughter-in-law, which also saves those people the strange feeling of looking at us.

We soon followed Wu Dahan into his house, and as soon as we entered the house, we saw that there was a straw mat on the ground outside, a longevity coat on the straw mat, a longevity basin and a lantern in front of the straw mat, and a large pile of ashes from burning paper, which should be where Wu Dahan's daughter-in-law was lying.

In the countryside for funerals, the deceased will generally be moved to the ground in the outer room or living room, with a straw mat used before, wearing a shroud, and lying on the ground with his head facing inward, so that it is convenient for the wake and relatives and friends to come to mourn.

After entering the house, we carefully examined it, and it was an old-fashioned house, with only one window and one door, and the windows were now in good condition without any damage, which meant that his daughter-in-law could never have gone out through the window.

Since it is impossible to get out through the window, you can only go out through the door.

"This is impossible, if anyone comes to the house to take away my daughter-in-law, this yard is full of people, can't you even see someone carrying away a dead person?" Wu Dahan immediately refuted this possibility, "Besides, there is still a distance from this house to the gate of the courtyard, whether it is carried out or carried out, it will be seen." ”

He's right, if his daughter-in-law is taken out, she will definitely be seen!

Jin Dianlong frowned even more tightly and said, "Your daughter-in-law is nothing special, who is going to steal her body?" ”

Wu Dahan was silent, and we were silent together, just an ordinary village woman, who would steal her body in front of so many people after her death?

The people of this village are so xenophobic and look at people so gloomy, I have no doubt that if they found out that the body was stolen, they would definitely not hesitate to kill the person who stole the body!

After thinking about it, there were many possibilities, but each one was quickly overthrown, until the cold man who had been silent said, "If she walked out by herself, she would never be discovered." ”

We were stunned together.

Wu Dahan was stunned at first, then frowned tightly and asked the cold man, "Little brother, my daughter-in-law is already dead, how can you go out by yourself, aren't you kidding!" ”

But I have already begun to accept the term cold man in my heart, thinking of a dead man who took advantage of everyone's inattention, quickly took off his shroud, changed into his usual clothes, and then hung his head and walked out of the courtyard quietly......

I unconsciously broke out in a cold sweat on my back!

The cold man has always talked little, and when he saw Wu Dahan stalking his neck and asking, he didn't mean to explain, Wu Dahan asked again, "If she goes out, she has to take off the shroud on her body, but there is no shroud in this house, how can this be explained?" ”

Yes, there are no shrouds in the house.

The cold man still didn't speak, just walked to the long table outside, took it out with his hand for a moment, and when he turned around again, there was already a ball of things in his hands, and the material and appearance of that thing knew at a glance that it was a shroud.

Wu Dahan was stunned.

After being stunned for a moment, he stammered, "But, but, but my daughter-in-law, why did she leave the house?" ”

No one answered his question.

Who knows what a dead person is thinking, and why should he run away from home?

Also, how can a dead person calmly take off his shroud and then hide himself and walk out of the house?

Is she still a person who has just died?
