126.Chapter 126: Dried Corpses
When I walked over, I saw that the dead pear tree was hanging from the branch of a child, and it was really the corpse of a child. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
And it's a dried corpse.
The way I go and greet guests like this is really special!
At first, I was a little reluctant to believe that it was really a corpse, because its color and dryness made me think that someone was playing a prank on someone who was wearing clothes on a carved wooden doll to scare people.
But when I looked closely and touched it with my hand, I concluded that it was a real person.
-- From the face, its skin was dark brown, now shriveled and wrinkled, and tightly bound to the skull like a patch, but it still had the characteristic touch and elasticity of human skin.
Judging from the face alone, it is no longer possible to distinguish the gender.
And what's particularly strange is that it has a mustache tied up in the sky, which is obviously a little girl's hairstyle, but it is wearing a little boy's clothes, which are a few years old and the fabric looks old, probably similar to what I wore when I was a child.
Whose body is this? Obviously, I can't know now.
So who brutally killed it, or what accident killed it? Again, I can't tell from the corpse.
So, who did it and what purpose did it hang up here, did it come specifically against me, or did it have some other purpose?
Subconsciously looked up at the morning sky, only to see the clouds accumulating, although there was no sign of rain, but the background of the world in front of me seemed dull and deep.
I think someone hanging the dried corpse of such a child from a dead tree is clearly deliberately coming at me.
Because the corpse is carefully processed, it is not the form that hangs outdoors for a period of time and then dries naturally.
Also, the lanyard and the clothes worn by the child, although old, were obviously freshly taken out of the storage place and changed, and if they had been exposed to the outdoors with the corpse for a period of time, exposed to the wind and rain, they would have long since decayed and weathered, and it was impossible to retain their current color.
So who is the initiator?
If all this was done by the Yin Snake, then this corpse should be an ice corpse rather than a dry corpse.
And if this matter is the handiwork of the Yang family's father, it should also be a medicine corpse to seem reasonable.
It seems that it is not only me or Yang's father who arrived in the village first, I am afraid that there are other people.
Then, I am afraid that it is not the Yin Snake or the Witch Sect that is demonstrating against me, but someone else.
Alas......
I could not look up at its face again, and I always felt that my heart was full of compassion, depression, and wrath.
Regardless of their purpose and purpose, I always felt that the body of a dead child should not be used for such a purpose.
But at this point, I decided to calm down and try to observe and retrieve the little corpse.
Because whoever he is, since he did this, I'm afraid it is not just as simple as demonstrating to me, maybe there is a deeper meaning.
For example, what I want to express and what I understand.
Or conversely, from my point of view, if I want to know who he really is, can I try to find some clues or useful information from this dried corpse?
I first silently recited in my mind a pre-ritual mantra that my father had taught me before, to the effect that I had no intention of offending, in order to find clues, I had to do this, and if I disturbed its spirit, don't be surprised.
The first thing that comes to my mind is to determine the gender of the child, is it a boy or a girl?
It's as simple as removing its clothes and looking at the features underneath.
With this in mind, I immediately did so:
Peel off its coat first to look at its upper body.
As a result, as soon as I saw the close-fitting clothes, I was startled and my mind thundered like a thunderbolt in the clear sky!
Because...... It actually had a green belly pocket.
This color style, I remember it so much!
Yes, after digging up a jar of ashes at home, didn't I have a strange dream when I slept on the sofa by myself?
I dreamed that I had become a child and went to a drinking party, and I was wearing such a green belly pocket!
Uh, I want to cry!
Who the hell is so disgusting that you use this to disgust me!
Could he have known my childhood or my dreams?
But I was lucky, and said to myself, whether this child is a boy or a woman, don't you know by looking at the lower body? Its hairstyle is like that of a girl, and the green belly pocket is mostly a coincidence.
I was a little inexplicably nervous, a little upset and nervous, and hurriedly used a knife to gently cut the tie around its waist and remove its trousers.
As a result, what I saw in front of me made my hands and feet weak.
This small, doll-like corpse has a large hole in its lower body, which is empty and its internal organs have been hollowed out.
Judging by the wound marks, it shouldn't have happened recently, but I can't tell how long it was.
It is not known whether this was a necessary procedure in the embalming of the body or whether it was intentional.
If it was deliberately not allowed to let me see its gender, who would be so cruel and really capable of doing it!
This technique has always felt plausible to me, but it is also a little familiar.
Suddenly I remembered four words: Wumen is ruthless, is it ......
I immediately withdrew my hand like an electric insect bite, and my heart was pounding and I began to examine myself carefully.
After a long time, he didn't notice anything abnormal, and he didn't feel any discomfort in his body.
But I was still a little worried, so I quickly took a bottle of general antidote and took it with dark wine.
It seems that no more can be found from the dried corpses.
I looked around again, and this time I noticed something even more strange.
In front of my eyes, Uncle Chen's house was quite well preserved, clean inside and out, as if someone came to take care of it from time to time.
This is a world away from the dilapidated and desolate scenes I saw in the courtyards and houses of other houses when I walked all the way here!
Let's talk about myself.
Maybe it's because I'm too nervous, and I'm not sleepy at all now.
I stood there and thought about it, and realized a problem:
With one day and one night to go, the expedition will reach Stone Village.
So, I still have a day.
It seems that I really need to use this limited time to explore the Shima Village and see who is secretly doing it?
I don't believe he has the ability to do it without showing his feet at all.
If that's the case, then why did he hang this dried corpse out just to show off his embalming skills, or just to scare me?
Impossible.
Either way, there will be something stranger that will happen in the future that I can't control or stop in advance.
But the most important thing now is that before I explore Shima Village, I still have to collect this corpse and let it be buried in the ground.
Whoever is hiding in the shadows, I hope you don't turn this poor kid out and toss it anymore.
Otherwise, I'm going to be rude to you!
After making a decision, I walked slowly to Uncle Chen's house, intending to find a wooden box or something to hold the dried corpse.
Unlocked, I reached out and gently pushed the door, and with a creak, it opened......
