Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Underground Cave

This childish cry did not come from the direction of the headless corpse, but from under my feet.

In a panic, I looked down and suddenly my hairs stood on end, as if thousands of ants were constantly biting.

The original white ball turned into a bloody human head at this moment!

A little boy was looking at me with his eyes rolling upwards in the blur of flesh and blood, and the boy's skin was as white as snow under the cold moon of Qinghui, and bright red blood continued to flow from the broken part of his neck, seeping into the ground along the bluestone slab.

Although I have experienced a lot of unbelievable things in the past few days, this is the first time I have seen such a bloody picture.

I didn't have time to think about it, and I desperately broke free from the boy's bondage, but what I didn't expect was that the boy looked only seven or eight years old, but he had a lot of strength.

No matter how hard I struggled, I couldn't escape his restraints, but instead made a few bright red blood marks on my arm.

"Uncle, help me pick up the head, I beg you, I can't find my mother without a head."

The boy's hands kept shaking my arms, and there was a hint of crying in his words in addition to pleading.

Although the scene in front of me was too terrifying, the boy's immature and pitiful voice finally relented my heart.

After making my decision, I bent down and stretched out my hand to the bloody head, and at this moment my heart was terrified, and my outstretched hand had begun to tremble violently, and for a moment I closed my eyes and did not dare to look again.

Just as my hand was about to touch the head, the boy's hand was released, and then I heard the boy's voice coming from the direction of the courtyard: "Uncle, you come with me, grandma invites you in." ”

I immediately opened my eyes when I heard the boy's voice, but I was stunned by the scene in front of me.

By this time, the human head on the ground had disappeared, and the boy in the weeds of the courtyard was waving at me with a white leather ball.

Under the moonlight, the boy returned to his normal appearance, the broken wound on his neck was gone, and even the bluestone floor, which had been dyed red, was now restored.

Seeing this, I realized that the bloody scene just now was all fake, and I should have been hit by a spell similar to the blinding method, which is why I saw such a bloody scene.

"Uncle, come in, grandma, please come in!" After hesitation, the boy waved at me again.

Now Li Hai and I have been trapped in the hat brim alley, presumably this old lady should be the ghost.

If I don't go, Li Hai and I will definitely die here, thinking of this, I took a deep breath, calmed my nervousness, and walked towards the courtyard gate.

After entering the courtyard, a cold aura came from all directions, and the weeds in front of him were surging and undulating like waves under the yin wind, and the dilapidated scene around him added a bleak and strange feeling.

"Little friend, this house has collapsed, where do you and your grandmother live?" Looking at the dilapidated houses, I couldn't help but ask.

"I live underground with my grandmother, you come with me, I'll take you." The little boy turned and walked in the direction of the half-collapsed house.

After seeing the boy leave, I glanced back at Li Hai who fell in the alley, although I was concerned about his safety, but the most important thing at present was to see the old lady first, after all, if the old lady did not let go, Li Hai and I would definitely not be able to leave the alley alive.

The boy walked up to the old wooden door, pushed it open, and entered the house.

I followed him to the door, but I was stunned when I looked into the room through the moonlight.

The dilapidated house was in shambles, littered with tables, chairs and benches, and the beams above his head had fallen to the ground, covered with cobwebs and dust.

But the little boy was nowhere to be found, and there was no trace of him at all when I was startled, and a childish voice came into my ears again: "Uncle, I'm here, come in with me quickly!" ”

Following the sound, a few meters or so in front of him, the little boy actually poked his head out of the ground.

By the moonlight pouring overhead, I could see that there was a deep pit dug underground, and that the little boy had entered the pit before, so I had not seen him.

"You...... You live underground with your grandmother? I looked at the little boy with a shocked expression.

"That's right, my grandmother and I have been living underground for more than 20 years, and there is everything down there, so come down with me." After the little boy finished speaking, he disappeared into the ground and was never seen again.

When I heard the words of the little boy, I was suddenly shocked, this little boy was about seven or eight years old, and he had lived here for more than twenty years, which meant that he had been dead for more than twenty years.

Thinking of his terrifying appearance before, I suddenly remembered the murder case back then, could it be that this little boy was the victim back then!

Surprised, I walked quickly towards the direction of the deep pit, and when I came to the pit, I looked down and saw that the diameter of the deep pit was about one and a half meters, square in shape, and on one side was a stone step made of bluestones.

I descended the stone steps, and after about three to five seconds, I came to a passage that was about two meters high, not too wide, and could only be passed by one person.

Holes are dug every three to five meters in the stone walls on both sides of the passage, in which candles are placed.

The original nervous mood was slightly relieved under the bright lights, and I looked ahead, the passage was only a dozen meters long, and at the end it seemed to be a room, and there was a faint sound of speech coming from inside.

I courageously walked forward, and when I reached the end of the passage, I looked inside, and was amazed.

Although there are mud walls on all sides, there is everything in the house.

There are not only tables, chairs, benches, but also wooden cabinets and beds, although the space is only dozens of square meters, the furnishings are very complete, and even pots and pans.

At this moment, the little boy was squatting aside and playing with the ball, while the old lady he had seen earlier was sitting at the table drinking tea, looking calm and relaxed under the candlelight.

"You baby is really bold, you really came in with my grandson." The old lady put down the teacup in her hand and glanced at me and said.

"Grandma, it's our two brothers who don't know Taishan and inadvertently offended you, we have seen your ability, can you raise your hand and let us live." I looked at the old lady in front of me and bowed.

The old lady snorted coldly, puffed out her cheeks and said, "How do you know that it was my old woman who trapped you inside?" ”

"Grandma looks like a person with great skills, who else but you can have the ability to trap us here." I looked at the old lady and complimented.

Everyone in the world is willing to listen to good words, and now that the old lady has become a ghost, she must also like to listen to compliments.

As long as we take this fart well, I don't think the old lady will embarrass us, after all, from her countenance, she doesn't look like that kind of eccentric person.

Sure enough, after I said this, the corner of the old lady's mouth showed a slight smile, and then she spoke: "Although you baby is said to be oily and smooth, but my old woman likes to listen to it, I will spare your life today, but your friend is going to suffer a little crime." ”

Hearing this, I immediately reacted, the reason why Li Hai's eyes became red as blood must be the ghost of this old lady, if this is the case, then even if he goes to the hospital, I am afraid he will not be able to heal.

In desperation, I looked at the old lady and pleaded: "Grandma, my friend has been frightened and fainted now, he has been punished, I hope you will raise your noble hand and spare him, he will definitely not dare in the future." ”

"Don't dare what? You're afraid you don't know where he offended me, do you? The old lady put away her smile and looked at me with a gloomy face.

The old lady's words left me speechless, she was right, I didn't know where Li Hai offended her.

The most excessive words were just to thank her family, but at that time, the old lady responded with a smile and told us to be careful on the road, in this case, how did Li Hai provoke this old lady?

Seeing that I didn't know how to answer, the old lady snorted coldly and said, "I don't know, forget it, anyway, your friend will be punished as he deserves, and he will be blind in one eye in three or five days at most." ”

Hearing this, I sighed in my heart, this time Li Hai came to this hat brim alley with me to help me, if I made him blind because of me, wouldn't I be a sinner, and how would I explain to his parents!

"Grandma, if you really feel that he has offended you, then I will bear the blame, no matter how you want to punish me, even if you want my life, I will not complain, but only if you heal my friend's eyes and let him walk out of the hat alley safe and sound!" I looked at the old lady in front of me and said earnestly.

When the old lady heard my words, her complexion changed, and her eyes revealed a look of disbelief.

After a while, she said in a deep voice, "You didn't even want your life for your friend?" Trade your own life for his life? ”

"Anyway, I can't live today, in this case, it is better to change my friend's life, at least he can continue to live." I looked at the old lady and smiled bitterly.

"Can't live today? Judging from the face of your baby, although you won't live long, you will definitely not die today, you don't think my old woman will kill you, right? The old lady looked at me and said.

Hearing this, I couldn't help but be a little confused, if I calculate according to time, today is the third day, whether it is Chen Xiangming or Qin Wenhua, this is the case, why does this old lady say that I can live for a while, what is going on, it stands to reason that since this old lady is a ghost, he should also be able to see the length of my life, but how is it different from what Chen Xiangming and others said?

"Don't lie to me, can I still know my own life, tonight is my deadline at twelve o'clock, but before that I still hope you can let my friend go, can you promise me?" I asked, looking at the old lady with pleading eyes.

After hearing what I said, the old lady raised her hand and waved, and said, "Come over baby, let my old woman show you palmistry, I still don't believe that I can read it wrong." ”

Now that Li Hai and I were in the hands of the old lady, I didn't dare to do anything against it, and then I walked quickly to the old lady and stretched out my palm.

The old lady grabbed my hand with her withered palm, and then looked down at my palm.

After looking at it for about three or five seconds, the old lady's figure suddenly shook, and there was a look of surprise in her eyes!
