Chapter 38: A Lot of Corpses
The only light source in the room is the faint flashlight in our hands, there is no land idle here, so the room layout is relatively large, all sides are dark and dreary, and you can't see anything at a glance.
Since the light source of the lighting was only a flashlight, the four of us did not act separately, and began to look for it next to the wall, but as soon as we walked into the wall, we immediately saw a very terrifying scene.
At the base of the wall, there were several corpses dressed in white linen standing neatly.
There are corpses of all ages, young and old, with their eyes closed, their expressions are serene, just now I saw a large number of terrifying dried corpses, and now I saw these peaceful corpses in front of me, so that there was no element of fear, even Tofu said boldly: "These people seem to be easier to talk, why are they in this old man's room?" ”
Mao Rooster stammered: "I heard that the corpse will not be too far away from the corpse chaser, could it be that these are the corpses that the corpse chaser brought in the first place?" ”
When Gu Wenmin heard this, he looked a little puzzled, and said slowly: "If that's the case, then who brought those corpses outside?" ”
Oh, yes. The corpses in the room were driven by the old man on the bed. So who drove so many corpses outside?
I remembered what I had seen in the crack in the door, the tall and thin figure carrying the lantern, and for a moment another guess popped up in my mind: Could it be that there was not only an old man here?
Did any other corpse chasers die in this place?
The corpses they drove were also left here with their deaths?
What happened in this Yin and Yang Liubu Village back then?
At this moment, the sound of wind and rain outside seemed to have stopped, and the corpses outside the door were motionless, and we stood in front of these corpses with our breath, and countless thoughts turned in our minds.
Before these thoughts could take shape, in the darkness, a cold wind came from nowhere, and swept it around our necks, and everyone shrank their necks in unison, and then another bell rang, but it was the dementor bell I had placed on the table before, because of the cold wind, it was blown and swirled, and it fell to the ground at once.
In the dark night, the bell was very clear, and I felt a pang in my heart, and the secret saying was not good, and the bell moved, but I was afraid that something would happen. Subconsciously, we all moved our eyes to the door, for fear that those things that had quieted down would start to go crazy again, but this time it seemed that we were lucky, and the bell did not alarm the corpses outside.
Tofu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It seems that this old man is helping us, this bell doesn't work this time." Gu Wenmin's face, which had always been strict, also showed a smile, in this tense and dark environment, brought a trace of warmth, she said: "It seems that your prayers God and Buddha have heard......" She seemed to have something to say behind her, suddenly, her eyes paused, the smile on her face froze, the corners of her mouth turned slightly up, gradually pursed into a straight line, stared at a corner in the dark, and said: "Did you notice just now, how many corpses are there in front of us?" ”
I recalled, "Six." Three high, two short and one small...... Hey, wait, why is the little one gone? "In the darkness, the last child's corpse, which was originally at the back, disappeared without a trace at some point.
Obviously it was still there just now.
The hairy rooster has no owner, and said: "Ouch, my grandmother, what kind of bad luck did you go this time." At this time, he doesn't stutter.
Since Tofu arrived at the Ghost Gate, he was frightened one after another, and when he was extremely frightened, a ruthless energy appeared on his body, and he scolded: "his grandmother, it's true that our brothers are soft persimmons, and any demons and monsters dare to come forward." After that, he picked up the tripod in his hand, combined the three into a strand, waved it heavily in his hand, and said, "Lao Chen, shine a flashlight and see where that thing is hiding." The tiger doesn't send cats, thinking I'm critically ill! Dou Ye is going to ask wild dogs to eat bear bile today and fight with these ghosts. ”
I also complained in my heart, the things on the outside are still around, and something has happened inside. Therefore, people are unlucky, and they drink cold water and stuff their teeth. I'm not a person who is afraid of things, as soon as Tofu said this, my fire was also lit, waving the things in my hand, walking towards the dark corner with the flashlight, and said to Tofu: "I'll go, don't come with me." ”
Tofu said: "Good brother, live and die together, I can't let you take risks alone at this time!" ”
I said, "Xiaodou, I have received your wishes." But before you and I live and die together, can you stop shaking those two legs? My pants are going to shake off. ”
Gu Wenmin couldn't laugh or cry, lowered his voice and looked around nervously, and said, "Chen Hang, at this time, the two of you should stop infighting, and quickly find out the one who disappeared." At this moment, while I was talking to Tofu, I had moved to the corner, and as soon as the light approached, in the dark corner, a figure squatting with his back to us immediately appeared, the figure seemed to be digging something on the ground, and after feeling our light, suddenly, it disappeared all at once.
I shouted, "Here it is! "Since it was by the corner of the bed, the place was too small for a second person to squeeze in, so I had to rush forward at once, and the child had already disappeared without a trace.
Tofu followed the second one, looked at the corner of the wall, and said in surprise: "Perverted Chen, you kid is scared stupid?" There's nothing here! ”
"Definitely." I said, "Watch around, it's probably hidden, look under the bed." Tofu followed on his stomach and looked under the bed, looking overhead to prevent it from hiding on top of us like the cat before, but there was nothing on it.
At this moment, Tofu pulled my trouser leg violently and exclaimed, "There's a big black hole under the bed." ”
Big hole?
How can there be a hole under the bed? Could that thing be in a hole?
I quickly got down as well, and sure enough, at the foot of the bed, only ten centimeters away from us, there was a large square hole, and the flashlight went down, and there was a wooden staircase in the hole, just like the stairs built in the countryside in the past, leading to the cellar.
The light is weak, the visible range is only about four meters, the stairs are relatively deep, and there is a black patch four meters away.
That thing just now will suddenly disappear, and it must have been on the spot, directly into this underground passage.
Gu Wenmin and the two stood on the periphery, unable to see the situation below, although they didn't get along with her for a long time, she was much more reliable than the hairy rooster, standing on the periphery to control the wind for us, at this moment, she suddenly gasped and said; "Someone."
I was lying on my stomach observing the hole at the bottom of the bed, and it was very inconvenient to turn around for a while, and casually asked, "Who is it?" ”
Before Gu Wenmin could reply, the hairy rooster trembled and said, "In ...... Outside our door, a lamp was lifted...... Lantern. ”
Got a lantern? Isn't that the man I saw through the crack in the door? I secretly said that it is not good, this person is likely to be the corpse chaser who manipulates the corpse, and I can't figure out whether it is a person or a ghost, let him in, and it will be over.
In a hurry, I said; "Don't make a sound, hurry, go down this tunnel and hide first."
Tofu's forehead was full of cold sweat, and he said: "I can hide from the first day of junior high school, but I can't hide from the fifteenth." He gritted his teeth, and a hideous look flashed on Sven's face, and said, "If you go down first, I'll guard outside and see what is coming, and I'll kill him if it's a person." ”
I was very scared when I looked at the tofu, let alone killing, he didn't even dare to kill chickens, and at this time, for the safety of everyone, he was actually inspired to be ruthless. But I know that it's not enough to be ruthless, Tofu is a weak scholar, usually holding a pen and drawing, his body is very clear to me, maybe it's not as good as Gu Wenmin, even if the other party is a human and not a ghost, I'm afraid Tofu is not an opponent.
So I said, "I'll go back, and you go down first." ”
The hairy rooster was already frightened, and hurriedly said: "I'll go down first......"
Gu Wenmin said: "You all don't fight. It's also fate that a few of us can get together, no one should sacrifice, let's all go down! I think this entrance is narrow, and it can only accommodate one person, so let's guard it underneath, which is a natural barrier. ”
After her reminder, I couldn't help patting my forehead, and said in my heart Why didn't I think of this stubble, after this entrance entered, we stayed inside, it can be said that we are a husband, and we can't open it, why make these sacrifices.
The four of them immediately stopped talking, and immediately took their things and climbed into the secret passage under the bed.
