Chapter 31 The Yang Mansion Stores the Yin Coffin
The murmuring sound in the dead and silent room was endless, and when I looked closely, the coffin leaning against the wooden bed was as black as ink, without the slightest carving pattern on it, and it looked very quaint.
The moment I saw the coffin, I suddenly remembered what the old lady had said, she had said that Qin Wenhua was half human and half ghost.
I would have been skeptical before, but now it seems that Qin Wenhua does have a problem, otherwise, how could he possibly place a coffin in his room.
"This ...... How can there be a coffin in this house, Chen Mo, tell me the truth, what is the matter with this person surnamed Qin you are looking for, why is there still the sound of water boiling in this coffin? ”
When he was questioned, Li Hai's body couldn't help trembling, and his eyes showed a panicked look, and he even began to stammer.
"I don't know what's going on with this coffin, but judging from the free bed, he shouldn't have come back yet, otherwise let's go outside and wait for him first, and then you won't get involved in this matter, I'll see him alone." I looked at Li Hai and said.
Li Hai didn't respond when he heard this, his eyes kept locked on the coffin, and after about three or five seconds, he suddenly spoke: "You say...... You said that this person surnamed Qin would not live in this coffin, right? ”
As soon as these words came out, my head buzzed, and my breathing became a little short.
Although Li Hai's words sound a little absurd, they are not unreasonable when you think about it.
Since Qin Wenhua is half human and half ghost, he is naturally different from ordinary people, and it is not impossible to say that he lives in a coffin.
It's just that if Qin Wenhua really lives in it, then what's going on with this cooing sound, could it be his snoring?
Seeing that I was stunned, Li Hai patted me on the shoulder with his hand, and said in a trembling voice: "Hurry up, this place is too infiltrating, if you don't leave, buddy will probably fold here!" ”
Hearing Li Hai's words, I glanced down at the phone screen, it was already half past eleven in the middle of the night, and there was only half an hour left before the deadline, I had to use this last time to gamble again!
"If you want to go by yourself, I must open the coffin and see what is going on!"
After making up my mind, I didn't wait for Li Hai to respond, walked directly to the coffin, stretched out my hands against the coffin lid, and then pushed it to the side.
But what I didn't expect was that Rao was the strength of the milk, and the lid of the coffin still didn't move, as if it had been nailed down.
Li Hai came back to his senses when he saw me step forward and push the lid of the coffin, and hurriedly reached out and grabbed my arm, and shouted angrily: "Are you crazy, you dare to move this dead man's coffin, what if there is anything dirty in it, then the lives of both of us will be explained here!" ”
I shook off Li Hai's hand and said excitedly: "You're crazy!" I'm here to save my life, I'm going to die in less than half an hour, but I don't want to die, no matter what's in this coffin, I'm going to open it and see, this is my last chance to live! If you're a brother, leave this alone, go as far as possible, I don't want to die and be seen as a drag! ”
Li Hai looked at my scarlet eyes and froze in place for a while, although the corners of his mouth twitched, he never said a word, and after a few seconds of silence, he came to the coffin and raised his hands against the lid of the coffin.
"What are you doing?" I looked at Li Hai and said in surprise.
"You can't push this coffin alone, I'll push it with you, as a brother, I will definitely support you to the end, don't talk nonsense, hurry up and help!"
Li Hai said as he pulled the stance, his legs were apart, his waist was up, and he buried his head in front of the coffin lid and was ready to push the coffin lid.
Seeing Li Hai's appearance, my eyes couldn't help but moisten a little, he was obviously afraid to death, but he still had to choose to help me without hesitation, this friendship is hard to change.
Li Hai saw that I had tears in his eyes, and he gave me a blank look and said, "Don't chirp, hurry up and push this coffin away, it's a person or a ghost, let's deal with it together!" ”
Hearing this, I nodded vigorously, then put my hands on the lid of the coffin, looked at the ground with my head, and began to count down in my mouth to prepare for the same effort.
Just when I counted to two, I suddenly saw a black shadow appear on the empty ground, and I was stunned on the spot for a moment, and before I looked back, Li Hai's anxious urging voice came from my ears: "Keep counting, why did you stop!" ”
"Behind you...... There's someone behind you! ”
The atmosphere in the house became even more eerie, and the gurgling sound in the coffin was gone.
Li Hai and I had the courage to look back, only to see a dark shadow standing in front of the bedroom door.
Because the dim figure in the room couldn't see clearly with his back to the moonlight, Li Hai raised the stone in his hand and threw it in the direction of the figure.
I only heard a swishing sound and the stone smashed into the face of the figure like an arrow from the string, and the figure suddenly raised its hand to block the face in the electric light, and held the stone in the palm of his hand with a bang.
"Who let you break in!"
The sound of angry shouting was like thunder, and then there was a click, and when I looked closely, the stone in the figure was crushed by pinching.
I saw that the voice was a little familiar, so I hurriedly raised my mobile phone and shone it in the direction of the figure, and only then did I see the appearance of the figure clearly under the light, this person was Qin Wenhua!
"Why are you here now, I've been waiting for you for a whole day, I thought you didn't want your life anymore!" Qin Wenhua let go of his hand as he spoke, and the broken stones in his palm fell to the ground one after another.
"I came a long time ago, but I thought the courtyard where you lived was No. 365, so I delayed it for so long, if it wasn't for the old lady at the end of the alley to tell me the exact address, I'm afraid I'm still wandering around the alley now." I looked at Qin Wenhua and said helplessly.
Qin Wenhua's face was stunned when he heard what I said, and he was surprised: "Old lady? You're talking about the old lady who lives in that grassy courtyard? ”
"That's right, it's her! That old lady is not a good thing, Chen Mo and I almost died in her hands, and I also saw a headless corpse, it was so infiltrating. Li Hai's face was panicked, and it seemed that he was now palpitating.
"I tell you, that old lady is not a person, you two did not die in her hands, it is your fate, okay, since you are already here, then do what you need to do, come out with me." After speaking, Li Hai turned around and walked to the hall and turned on the electric light in the hall.
The lights were turned on, and the room was as bright as day, and the panicked mood calmed down a lot.
Although I had seen Qin Wenhua twice before, I was in a taxi, and I didn't see it very clearly.
Now facing each other, I took a closer look at him, Qin Wenhua looked about his early forties, thin and about 1.75 meters tall.
With his back hair shining and shiny, his eyes were bright, and he could clearly feel a strong oppressive force when his eyes were facing each other, but his face looked a little not good, and his complexion was sallow, as if he had been malnourished for a long time.
"Uncle Qin, how can there be a coffin in your bedroom, isn't this coffin inhabited by a dead person, wouldn't it be unlucky to put a coffin in the living room?" Li Hai looked at Qin Wenhua and asked curiously.
As soon as these words came out, Qin Wenhuadeng's face changed abruptly, he turned his head to look at Li Hai, stared at Li Hai with vicious eyes, and then said in a cruel voice: "Ask what you should ask, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, how do you know that this coffin is not where I sleep?" ”
Qin Wenhua's words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, so frightened that Li Hai sat directly on the ground, and without waiting for me to help Li Hai up, Qin Wenhua said in a deep voice: "You came to me today to solve the trouble, but didn't you come to inquire about my news, did you bring anything?" ”
I know that the thing Qin Wenhua is referring to is the shroud, but now that the shroud has been taken to the police station, I can't get it back at all.
"It's not in my hands right now." I looked at Qin Wenhua and said directly.
"Not in your hands? Could it be that you handed over your things in Tianxiu Mountain Cemetery! ”
Qin Wenhua's tone suddenly became a little flustered, and his eyes stared at me deadly, as if I had committed some mortal crime.
I shook my head and said that the things were not handed over, but fell into the hands of the police, and then I told Qin Wenhua the truth about the shroud being picked up by the young man on the other side and hanging himself.
Qin Wenhua's originally nervous expression eased after listening to me, he took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, took one out, lit it in his mouth, and then sat on the wooden chair and swallowed the fog.
Seeing Qin Wenhua smoking a cigarette with a calm face, a burst of anger rose in my heart, raised my hand and pointed to the clock on the wall, and shouted angrily: "The surname Qin, what do you mean, now there is only a quarter of an hour left until twelve o'clock, why are you still smoking leisurely, didn't you say that you can solve the trouble by coming to you, what do you mean by hanging me here now, is it possible that you want me to stand here and wait for death!" ”
The fierce words did not displease Qin Wenhua, but he pushed the cigarette case on the table forward, and said calmly: "Young people, don't be so angry, smoke a cigarette and calm down." ”
"Is this a matter of anger, now my life is less than a quarter of an hour, you don't want to save my life but smoke here, do you think I can not be angry!"
Now that I have almost collapsed, I finally found Qin Wenhua, I thought that he could help me unravel this curse, but I didn't expect him to look like he didn't care about himself.
If I had known that he had this attitude, I might as well have taken this time to go back to my hometown, or at least see my parents again before I die.
After hearing this, Qin Wenhua turned his head and glanced at the clock, and said in a deep voice: "You can't die, if you don't believe it, let's just sit here and wait, I guarantee that you can survive past twelve o'clock, if you can't survive, I will let your friend dispose of it." ”
After Qin Wenhua finished speaking, he put the half of the cigarette in his hand into the ashtray, then pinched a handful of tea leaves from the tea box and put them in the teapot, poured hot water and continued to smoke.
Looking at his leisurely appearance, I became more and more anxious, but even if I was in a hurry, I couldn't do anything about him.
Qin Wenhua is definitely not a very human, the stone in his palm just now was actually crushed by him, with me and Li Hai are his opponents, and he is not a human or a ghost, if I really want to provoke him seriously, maybe not only my life will be broken here, but even Li Hai will not be able to escape.
In desperation, I had to stand anxiously where I was, and as the minutes passed, my heart became more and more uneasy.
"Chen Mo, whether this surnamed Qin can do it or not, there is only less than a minute left." Li Hai asked eagerly, standing beside me.
I looked at the clock, and the minute hand was now at eleven fifty-nine, less than a minute before my deadline.
On the other hand, Qin Wenhua had a calm expression, he was sitting at the table sipping tea, the more calm he was, the more panicked I became, whether it was Shenhao or Qin Wenhua and Chen Xiangming, they all said that I would die tonight, but now how can Qin Wenhua be so calm, could it be that he doesn't want to save me?
In contemplation, I once again set my eyes on the clock, the second hand had already entered the countdown, and it was only a few seconds until the wee hours of the morning.
"Five, Four, Three, Two......"
