Chapter 240: The Man Without a Face
"A woman's corpse?"
can make Wang Yiran's expression so strange, I don't know what is wrong with this corpse.
"Hmm!"
Wang Yiran nodded, pointed to the fox corpse on the iron bed, and said, "Brother, you can help me sew the fox corpse first!" ”
"Learn something!"
I cut the original stitches on the fox's neck and re-stitched them back.
Speaking of which, Wang Yiran has been in this industry for several years, and the corpses he handles daily are not small, and his craftsmanship cannot be said to be rotten, but it is quite ordinary.
"Someone's coming!"
Halfway through the sewing, there was a sudden clicking sound in the corridor behind him.
This is the sound made after the heels collide with the concrete floor.
This morgue, located in the basement, is rarely visited.
According to Wang Yiran, no one can come in here except for him and the curator.
When he came down, Wang Yiran had already locked the door from the inside, how could there be anyone in the corridor?
I stopped and turned my head to look at the door of the morgue.
Click!
Click!
The sound of the heels colliding with the ground was still loud and closer, and finally disappeared behind the door.
A few of us all turned around and stared at the door.
I'm not afraid, I'm just a little curious.
There are three corpses in it, and the one who came at this time must have something to do with these three corpses.
"He's coming in through the crack in the door!"
Just then, Candy pointed to the crack in the door and shouted.
Actually, I don't need to say it, we also saw it.
A flat, leather-like thing slipped through the crack in the door.
The first to come is the head, then the body, and finally the legs.
After all of them got in, the leather-like thing floated up, filled with air at a speed visible to the naked eye, and a gentle woman wearing a cheongsam and stepping on high heels appeared in front of us.
"Where is the slave's father-in-law?"
After regaining her human form, the woman bowed slightly, and a gentle voice sounded in our ears.
"I'll take him out of here!"
Wang Yiran was stunned for a moment, turned around and pulled out a cabinet, and moved out the body wrapped in a body bag.
I looked at the woman thoughtfully, this woman should be the shadow puppeteer.
If it weren't for seeing how she entered the room and how she became human, I couldn't tell if she was a real person or a shadow puppet.
"Look, is this your husband?"
Wang Yiran placed the body on the iron bed, took a step back, and motioned for the woman to come and check.
"Xianggong?"
The woman screamed tentatively.
The otherwise calm corpse trembled at this call.
"Xianggong!"
The woman screamed again, stepped forward and pulled open the body bag, revealing the corpse's face with a yellow talisman attached to it.
"This is the corpse of the Evil Suppression!"
Wang Yiran stepped forward to take off the yellow talisman and said, "If you don't post these two talismans, your husband will already have a corpse!" ”
"Xianggong!"
As if she hadn't heard, the woman stretched out her hand and stroked the corpse's face in a foolish manner.
This performance was really a bit unexpected to me.
This woman calls the corpse Xianggong, not her husband, which is very intriguing.
After the Republic of China, except for the fact that it often appears in dramas, women rarely call their husbands like this.
What does this mean?
Explain that the woman's origin is suspicious, wrapping the man's body.
The two of them are likely to be a pair of old monsters who have lived for more than a hundred years, otherwise, there is no way to explain the name.
It's all modern society, who will call their husbands father-in-law?
I didn't pay attention to it before, but now I take a closer look, the cheongsam on the woman's body is not the Republic of China and modern styles, but the kind of cheongsam with complex patterns that often appears in Qing court dramas, and her shoes are not serious high heels, but embroidered shoes with horseshoe-shaped soles.
This dress, coupled with this title of the father-in-law, makes me have to doubt the identity of the woman.
But Wang Yiran said before that this kind of twin shadow puppets were made from childhood and raised by their side.
In this way, it contradicts my inference.
"Xianggong!"
In front of the iron bed, the woman screamed again, but there was not much poignancy in her voice, but there was an inexplicable meaning.
"Thank you to a few benevolent fathers for sheltering the body of the prime minister, there will be a great reward in the future!"
After the scream, the woman got up and bowed to us again, like a Qing court opera, and did a blessing to us.
"No, no!"
We were a little confused and waved our hands again and again.
The woman didn't say anything, but got up on her own, and then looked at the corpse lying on the iron bed, a strange smile on the corner of her mouth.
"Xianggong, I'll take you to revenge, okay?"
The woman stretched out her hand and gently stroked the corpse's face, then leaned over and kissed the corpse.
I found a strange place again, the corpse did not respond to a woman's kiss, which was obviously wrong.
Just now, there were two talismans on the corpse's head and two talismans, and the woman called him Xianggong, and he trembled twice!
But this time, the two talismans of turning evil and suppressing the corpse were taken off, and the woman recognized him again, in this case, the corpse did not move.
Not only did it not move, but it did not even react.
This is quite strange.
"Be good!"
After a kiss, the woman exhaled softly in the corpse's ear, climbed onto the iron bed, and lay on the corpse.
I looked confused, and looked at Chu Siyu and Wang Yiran respectively.
They were also confused, they didn't understand what was going on, and they didn't understand what this woman was going to do!
The next moment, the situation that appeared in the woman shocked us again.
After lying on the corpse, the woman's originally full body made a pop and began to leak.
In less than ten seconds, the woman turned into her original leather form again, and the corpse trembled at this moment, but quickly regained its composure.
The woman moved again at this moment, and she squirmed, slowly spreading her body, wrapping the corpse in it, as if the corpse was wearing a strange dress.
Soon, the package was over, and the corpse sat up from the iron bed, slowly turning its neck and making a clicking sound.
At this moment, the appearance of the corpse is very strange, as if a beautiful woman tattoo has been tattooed on the surface of the body.
The mouth of the beautiful woman is facing the neck of the corpse, the hands of the beautiful woman are wrapped around the waist of the corpse, and the legs of the beautiful woman are crossed with the legs of the corpse.
Seeing this scene, I understood it all.
The corpse became the woman's puppet.
Under normal circumstances, it is the human who controls the shadow puppet, and the shadow puppet is the puppet of the person.
Now the situation is completely reversed, and the shadow puppet controls the person, and the person is the puppet of the shadow puppet.
I kind of understood why the corpse was reacting so strangely.
When this woman came, he trembled, not because he was happy, but because he was afraid.
I also understand why the woman, known as the Twin Shadow Puppet, became separated from this man and let this man die near the ghost street.
I'm afraid they are not separated, this man went to the ghost street, and it was not like other forces to get benefits, he probably went to the ghost street to avoid women.
Thinking about this, I kind of don't know what to say.
"Today's kindness will be repaid tomorrow!"
After getting acquainted with the body, the corpse got down from the iron bed, stood over its head, and bowed to us again, and gave us a blessing, and let out a woman's voice.
"No!"
Wang Yiran and I smiled awkwardly and spit out two words at the same time.
The corpse, which was controlled by the woman, didn't say anything, just took a deep look at us and left.
Soon, the sound of the iron door closing in the basement sounded, and the woman went out, and several of us exhaled at the same time.
Although this woman does not have a good attitude like us, owes her body ten thousand blessings at every turn, and says that she wants to repay her kindness, but when she is there, I can clearly feel the pressure that this woman brings us.
I suddenly realized that if we had made a move just now, even if we had the advantage in numbers, we would probably have lost.
"Where the fuck did this ancestor come from!"
Wang Yiran wiped his head and said, "Brother, it's so cold, I was sweating just now, this woman is so terrifying, whoever provokes her is unlucky!" ”
"This shadow puppet is made of human skin!"
Chu Siyu suddenly spoke.
"Huh?"
I was a little surprised.
Chu Siyu rarely speaks, but every time she speaks, she can get to the point, she said that human skin must be sure.
"I smell the familiar smell in her!"
Chu Siyu thought for a while and said, "When I was sealed and my mouth was sealed, the aura exuded from my body was the same as her!" ”
Speaking of this, Chu Siyu paused for a moment and said, "No, the resentment on her body is heavier than mine!" ”
"I see!"
Wang Yiran suddenly shouted, "It's a human shadow puppet!" ”
"Some shadow puppet families, in order to enhance the power of twin shadow puppets, will choose human skins with resentment to make shadow puppets, and shadow puppets made with this material will be very powerful!"
"This woman may be a shadow puppet made in this way, but this shadow puppet family may have gotten rid of it, and this woman is mainly anti-guest!"
After Wang Yiran finished speaking, he knocked his hand.
"It's possible!"
I nodded and said, "Okay, let's not talk about her, let's sew this fox first!" ”
Halfway through the sewing, the woman came in, and the fox's head had not yet been sewn.
Picking up the needle and thread again, I muttered to myself.
This shadow puppet woman is not simple, she said that there must be a return, not like a fake.
I just don't know if she's talking the other way.
Five minutes later, I dropped the last stitch, the fox's head, and sewed it up.
"This stitch is so well buried!"
Wang Yiran smacked his lips and sighed a little emotionally.
"Practice with logistics!"
I returned the needle and thread to him and asked, "What about the third corpse, I'll see what the difference is!" ”
"It's weird!"
Wang Yiran muttered, put the fox corpse into a body bag, put it in the freezer, opened another cabinet, and dragged out a body bag.
In a sense, this fox corpse is the best to deal with, and there is no need to worry about leaving sequelae.
"Brother, look!"
Just thinking about it, Wang Yiran had already opened the body bag, revealing the corpse inside.
The moment I saw the body, I frowned.
This corpse is indeed strange.
To put it simply, the corpse had no face, but it didn't mean that the face had been skinned, but that the face was flat, with no nose, no eyes, and no mouth.
Except for the face, the rest of the place is normal, and the female characteristics are obvious.
"You didn't check?"
I asked, pointing to the corpse's face.
"Checked, nothing out of the ordinary!"
Wang Yiran ruffled the corpse's hair, revealing the corners of the corpse's eyebrows, pointing to a one-centimeter-long opening on it and saying, "Brother, I cut a small opening with a scalpel, this is the woman's original face!" ”
"Do you believe that people look like this?"
I asked, pointing to the woman's almost flat face.
"Don't believe it!"
Wang Yiran shook his head.
"I don't believe it either!"
As I spoke, I got my hands on and pinched the woman's face.
Checking the corpse is a compulsory lesson for every second-hand cobbler.
This woman has no organs on her face, and it is not normal at first glance.
"That's not right!"
After half a ring, I let out a breath and shook my head slowly.
"What's wrong?"
Wang Yiran immediately asked.
"This face was added later!"
I said, pointing to the woman's face.
"Brother, I checked my nose, eyes, and mouth, and I didn't find anything abnormal!" Wang Yiran said.
"Give me the scalpel!"
I thought about it and said to Wang Yiran.
"Whoa!"
Wang Yiran handed over the knife, and after I took the knife, I didn't rush to start, but took out a demon talisman and a corpse suppression talisman, handed it to Wang Yiran, and said; "Once you find out that something is wrong, immediately put these two talismans on her head!"
"I see, brother!"
Wang Yiran nodded, thought about it and took off the clothes inside, only putting on a coat, which was about to use the angry eyes on his body to tattoo the King Kong.
"I did it!"
After getting ready, I gave Wang Yiran a look and began to go under the knife.
Before sewing the corpse, the second leatherman should pinch the bones of the corpse, and the head is a very important part.
Just now when I was pinching the bones, I noticed that the head of this corpse had been moved.
For example, the bridge of the nose, the face of this corpse has no nose, there is no nose, and naturally there is no nose bridge.
But in the process of pinching the bones, I felt a perfect arc in the original nose.
What does this mean?
Indicates that the nose has been groomed.
There are no perfect people in this world.
After living for so many years, I have pinched hundreds of corpses.
Of these hundreds of corpses, I have yet to pinch a corpse with such a perfect arc.
That's why I doubt it.
With the scalpel in hand, I started with my chin and followed the muscle lines, little by little.
Three minutes later, I was a little skeptical that I had made a mistake.
The reason is very simple, the skin and the flesh on the face are combined too well.
This face doesn't look like it was installed later.
Even so, I didn't stop and kept peeling down.
But when I saw the corpse's mouth, I was stunned for a moment, there was something stuffed inside, and this face was made later.
Before I even started pinching my bones, I already had some suspicions.
The reason is very simple, if a person wants to live, at least you have to eat, right? You have to breathe, right?
No nose, no mouth, how to eat, how to drink?
I can't eat, I can't drink, I can't breathe, how did I grow so big?
It's just basic common sense, but because the face is so perfectly made that there is not a single hole in it, we all forget about it.
Half an hour later, I let out a sigh of relief and put the scalpel aside.
"Grass!"
Wang Yiran saw the corpse's face and scolded directly.
It's already obvious that someone has remade the face of this corpse like in the movie Changing Face.
Why this was done is not known for the time being.
This technique is a bit like a human being, but it is different.
The corpse was all on all fours, but it had no eyes, no nose, no mouth, and no ears, and in doing so, it could not see, smell, speak, or hear.
This practice can stimulate a person's fear to the greatest extent, thereby increasing resentment in disguise.
Doing so is very much like the methods used by some evil ways to refine magic weapons.
"Brother, what should I do?"
Wang Yiran asked, pointing to the corpse.
"It's all come to this point, what can I do, let's help the corpse restore its original appearance first!" I said.
"Hmm!"
Wang Yiran nodded.
"By the way, do you prisoners know the identity of this corpse?" I asked.
"I don't know!"
Wang Yiran shook his head, "The corpses of that man and the fox, we can be regarded as having eyebrows, and we know which force they belong to, but we really don't know about this corpse." ”
"We were also surprised when the authorities handed over the body to us!"
Wang Yiran added.
"No matter, it's fateful when you meet, let's recover the body first!"
I said.
It's a little difficult to restore the original appearance of the corpse.
The corpse's eyes, nose, and ears are gone, and I need to restore them as they were.
But I didn't see the original appearance of the corpse, so I could only try to recover it according to the bone appearance.
The most strange thing for me is that I don't feel resentment in this corpse.
I originally asked Wang Yiran to hold the talisman, and once I found something wrong, I could put it on at any time.
But until I peeled off the face of this corpse, nothing abnormal happened, which was obviously wrong.
If you don't deal with it, if you just let the funeral home cremate the body, no one knows what will happen if something happens.
This is also the reason why the official gave the body to Wang Yiran.
They don't want to see a little bit of trouble.
I was about to do it, and after thinking about it, I felt that something was wrong.
I took out my phone and found that there was no signal.
"Brother, call the entrance to the basement, there is no signal here!" Wang Yiran said.
"Okay, I'll make a call, I always feel like I'm missing something, you guys look at some corpses, don't have any accidents!" I instructed.
"Don't worry!"
Wang Yiran smiled, shook the talisman in his hand, and pulled his clothes again, revealing the angry King Kong tattoo!
I looked at Chu Siyu again, and she handed me a reassuring look, and I was relieved.
Coming out of the morgue, I walked to the basement entrance, took out my phone, and called Eno first.
After the phone rang, I told me about the body.
Jiang Ye was silent for a while, and said, "Brother, don't move yet, I'll check the information, and besides, you'd better give Huang Feng one!" ”
"Good!"
I spit out a word and hung up the phone, and from Eno's tone, I heard the solemnity, this corpse, there is definitely something wrong.
I immediately dialed Huang Feng's phone and told Huang Feng about the situation in detail, and after Huang Feng heard it, he was also silent for a moment.
"Don't move, I'll go now!"
After half a ring, Huang Feng's voice came.
