Chapter 80: Strange Corpses

After another day, Uncle Wang and I took a car to Jiangdong Village in Tengchong, which is only a few dozen miles away from the volcanoes, because I inquired about some news here.

This is an old man in his seventies, and he told me a story, the old man's surname is Fang, his name is Fang Zhenhai, he is a native of this Jiangdong village, and he heard such a story when he was a child.

said that this village near Jiangdong Village once had a very strange legend: "That is, during the Anti-Japanese War, I can't remember whether it was 1941 or 1942, but I remember that there was a Japanese unit stationed near Jiangdong Village from outside the mountain, according to the Japanese army during the Anti-Japanese War, it should be a squadron stationed here, about 180 people." ”

"At that time, there were still some mountain people living in this Jiangdong village, and when the Japanese invaded China came, the mountain people all panicked, knowing that this village was going to suffer, and they hid in groups deep in the mountains, praying that the Japanese were not here to kill people."

"But that night, some villagers discovered a strange thing, these more than 180 Japanese soldiers disappeared for no reason, and there were still a lot of weapons and ammunition left in the camp where the Japanese soldiers were camped, but they were nowhere to be seen."

This kind of scene is a bit strange, and it immediately makes the mountain people wonder, what did the Japanese do when they abandoned the camp overnight? Why don't you take these supplies with you, but if you look closely, the situation is extremely paradoxical, and the reason for the paradox is the three wolf dogs left in the camp."

"The military dogs raised by the Japanese are extremely fierce and cruel, and these dogs are the kind of vicious dogs that can tear people alive. But the three wolf dogs left in the camp, kneeling on the ground with their two hind legs neatly, didn't even dare to move, knelt for a few days and nights, and finally knelt alive there, what is it that can make the three man-eating vicious dogs be so frightened that they dare not move, and they kneel and starve to death."

"At that time, some people wondered, what happened on the night when the Japanese disappeared? The three dogs were scared like this, and for the rest of that night, the Japanese squadron was completely like evaporating from the world, and never appeared again."

"No one has seen them, whether this thing is a legend or a story, in fact, there is a very conclusive basis, when the people in the county compiled the county chronicles during the Anti-Japanese War, they once wrote this strange thing into it."

"However, in the local county annals, there is no mention of the reason for the mysterious disappearance of this Japanese squadron, and in this kind of official historical documents, it is impossible for those messy things to appear, after all, the reason for the disappearance of these Japanese is absolutely creepy."

"At that time, as soon as the Japanese left, the villagers who hid in the mountains returned to the village one after another, and after the Japanese squadron came, it disappeared before it could harm the village, so the villagers felt happy as soon as they came back."

"To tell the truth, the common people at that time were very afraid of the Japanese devils, and they hesitated for several days before they began to approach the already empty camp."

"Some people tried to carry the military rations left behind in the camp, others found three dying dogs still kneeling on the ground, that kind of scene is difficult to predict and imagine, and most people are confused"

"It was not until this time that the truth about the disappearance of the Japanese surfaced, and a peasant named Chow Tai Fook, as if frightened, told others that he had seen the whereabouts of the more than 180 Japanese soldiers with his own eyes."

"Villager Lao Zhou is a man in his forties, his name is Zhou Dafu, when he was young, he suffered some injuries, which caused him to have some problems with his legs, as soon as the Japanese came, all the other people fled to the mountains, and he couldn't run well, and he didn't dare to move after nightfall."

"Because it is very dangerous for people with bad legs and feet to walk on mountain roads at night, so Lao Zhou hid in place, planning to stay up until dawn the next day, but who would have thought that he would hide this and see some things that should not have been seen"

"He said that these more than 100 little Japanese children, they were all taken away by a horse-drawn carriage, which was a very strange carriage, and the horse that pulled the carriage was only the size of a dog, and the horse's body was half covered with pitch-black hair, and half had snow-white hair, and the carriage was pulling a box covered with black cloth."

"Slowly leading the way in front, and the more than 100 Japanese soldiers, lined up behind the carriage, suddenly looked like they were marching at night, but Chow Tai Fook hid in the dark and saw it very clearly."

"The Japanese chasing the carriage, they didn't even wear shoes, and the soles of their feet were covered with sharp gravel in the mountains, and the flesh was blurred, but they didn't stop one step, and they ran forward with the strange carriage."

"When Chow Tai Fook told about this incident, some people were skeptical, doubting whether what Chow Tai Fook said was true, Chow Tai Fook was in a hurry at the time, patted his chest and gambled, this person is actually very honest and doesn't know how to lie"

"As soon as he gambled on the curse, the big guys believed it, and they all said that it was the retribution of little Japan, and it was the mountain god who sent someone to take them down, as for the deeper questions, these mountain people can't figure it out, and the matter should be over logically."

"But only a few days later, Chow Tai Fook, who escaped the catastrophe, died, strangely kneeling at the door of his house and died, the death looked a little strange and terrifying, his mouth was wide open, and the tongue in his mouth seemed to have been bitten off by something."

"Even the belly was opened with a big opening, and a large push of slippery and greasy intestines coiled around Chow Tai Fook's neck several times, and his wife was stunned next to Chow Tai Fook's body, crying and vomiting incessantly"

"It's really scary, but no one knows how Chow Tai Fook died, and this eerie death makes the rumors of the Japanese disappearing more real and evil."

"What is especially terrifying is that after Chow Tai Fook died, and after being buried, someone even saw him crawl out of the graveyard in the middle of the night, wandering around, and also doing strange movements, that is, kneeling on the ground in a shroud and kowtowing to the west"

At the time of the incident, I was only 10 years old at the time, and the old man said: "Where did I get treatment in the neighboring village, and after returning to Jiangdong Village, I heard this strange thing be told." I was a young man at the time, and I was the most curious, but I didn't see it with my own eyes, so I couldn't tell if it was true."

"I asked my parents at home if this rumor was true, and my father told me about it, but my mother didn't answer, and I was still skeptical."

"I never dared to believe this strange thing until seven or eight years later, when I was seventeen or eighteen years old, and I myself saw the strange little carriage, and then I knew that the disappearance of the Japanese and the tragic death of Chow Tai Fook were just some scratch skins."

"This weird little carriage is the most terrible thing in the world, it's really terrible, and there is no one, before I saw the little carriage with my own eyes, things were actually slightly wrong, but the atmosphere that was wrong was hidden very deeply, and it was very natural, so natural that I didn't notice it at all."

"Jiangdong Village is a few miles away, there is a person in the village over there, and there is an accident during the parking of the corpse, which is the corpse of the dead, and there are people in that village who can dispose of the corpse, but there has never been a corpse, and the small village where the corpse mutation occurred is the village where Chow Tai Fook died tragically for no reason."

"Although several years have passed since Chow Tai Fook's tragic death, the big guys have slowly forgotten about it, unless some villagers occasionally see Chow Tai Fook crawling out of the cemetery late at night and wandering in the woods, but they will still make strange moves, that is, when they kowtow to the west, it will cause a hot discussion"

The person who died this time was a native of this village, named Hu Dazhuang, only in his thirties, almost 1.9 meters tall, looking like a black iron tower, his arms and thighs are also thick and powerful, and his body has always been very good.

"At noon, I ate at home, and went to the field to do some farm work, but it didn't take long for people to die, and they died soon after being carried back by the villagers, but the appearance of the deceased was very strange, and he had been dead for less than half a day, and all his hair turned red."

"At that time, there was such a thing, it can be described as a very sensational thing, even Jiangdong Village knew about it, and I also loved to watch the excitement, so I pretended to have the courage to go to that village and came to the house of the deceased Hu Dazhuang"

"Outside the courtyard of the deceased Hu Dazhuang, a yellow charm was pasted, the coffin was resting in the courtyard, the coffin lid had been removed, and several wooden stakes were temporarily erected around the coffin, and ink lines were tied between the wooden stakes."

"This Hu family must have invited a corpse chaser who can deal with this aspect of the matter, because there are corpses and corpses are these things, and only people from the corpse chaser faction can deal with it, or invite some masters with Taoism"

"However, this master is very difficult to find, but fortunately, there is a corpse chaser who can handle this matter, because at a glance, you can know that this is the handiwork of an expert, and the Yin wood ink line is used to gossip, specially used to besiege the corpse of the corpse."

"An ugly-looking old man, holding a bundle of hay in his hand at this time, kept wandering around the coffin outside the ink line, muttering something in his mouth"

"This is the corpse chaser invited by this village, people call him the second master, when he was young, he saw some of the world outside the mountain, and also learned some skills to drive out corpses, he is a very capable person"

"Just as he was doing the corpse, suddenly a very violent night wind whistled over everyone's heads, and the stakes blown by the wind creaked, and the whole coffin shook a few times as if it was about to fall apart."

"I saw the body of Hu Dazhuang in the coffin, just like the villagers said, the deceased's hair turned blood red, fluttering up and down with the night wind, it looked very scary"

"And there was a strange smell, a burning smoke that seemed to come from a very hot place, and since I was also present at the time, I immediately smelled this smell and drifted from the corpse with the wind."

"The smell is very unique, light as a wisp of invisible smoke, My body shivered, looking at the red-haired corpse temporarily blocked by the stake and ink line, those big white eyes, there was a cold air from the soles of the feet to the top of the head, from beginning to end made people fall into the ice cellar"
