Chapter 30: The Shadow in the Stone

"Oooh!" The driver was frightened, and it took half a day to react.

Soon after the car started, the light poured in, and the bloody corpse was suddenly exposed to everyone's eyes.

Looking at this bloody fact, Ren Yi gasped and realized that no matter whether the other party was an advent or a human, his fight with him officially began at this moment.

This means that the same thing will happen again.

You have to find a mechanism for weirdness to happen.

Ren Yi said, "Everyone always pay attention to the movements around you, find someone who can drive to take over my car, and then, I will ride in the same car with you all the way to make sure that each of you is within my observation range." ”

Ren Yi sat down next to the melted corpse, and the rest of the people were still huddled in the other three corners, shaking with their grips on the guardrail, and the huge black cloth stone stood in the middle of the body, which made the atmosphere even more depressing.

"I ...... I feel like throwing up. The little monkey next to Lao Xu's corpse just now trembled and patted Ren Yi's arm, his face was very bad.

Everyone was still very afraid, and no one dared to sit next to him at this time.

Ren Yi glanced at it, and Lao Xu's melted flesh and blood were stuck to his clothes.

"There's a rest point ahead," the driver discussed with Ren Yi through the intercom, "or ...... Stop? ”

There were bodies of people I knew in the car, and it was true that everyone was very uncomfortable.

Ren Yi looked at everyone's expressions, "Okay." It's easy to go all over. Once in the car, I concentrate on the road and stop stopping until it gets dark. ”

With that, he frowned and glanced at his watch, his expression gradually becoming solemn.

It's already 4:25 p.m., and twilight is starting to close.

If this strange death really had anything to do with light......

Manager Liang...... When you pass by the rest point, you have to stop the car. Lao Li took the walkie-talkie, dialed the channel of the car in front of him, and nodded.

"There is a lot of and urine on the lazy donkey." Liang Chongbo scolded over there.

After a while, traces of houses began to appear on the identical abandoned road ahead, and the dirt road suddenly became wider, and four or five ruts extending from different directions converged here.

A huge iron sign stands on the side of the road, weathered beyond its original color, painted over and over again in red paint, "Park, gas, fast food" and plastered with all sorts of small advertisements. Behind the sign is a large open space fenced off by an iron fence, with small dilapidated shops, cement toilets, and awnings made of canvas...... A few people were sitting under the shed, and several large cars had been parked in the courtyard.

The flatbed truck swerved and headed for the clearing.

"First bury Lao Xu's body, and then go to the toilet collectively. Don't leave my sight, everybody. Ren Yidao.

Silently and frightened, the workers took out their tools from the back of the car and began digging holes in the grass beside the roadside.

The little monkey stained in corpse liquid walked to the pool next to it, dragged out the plastic water pipe hanging on the faucet and wrapped in wire, and said to Sun Laiwang, who was standing next to him smoking a cigarette.

"Help me with the water pipes?"

Sun Laiwang glanced at him, continued to smoke a cigarette, and lifted the water pipe with his empty right hand.

Whoa—

The sound of unstable water pressure spewed out intermittently.

The little monkey took off his coat, splashed water on his face.

Ren Yi heard the voice, glanced there with some concern, saw that nothing happened for a long time, and quickly turned his head to see a large number of people who were burying Lao Xu.

Alas, neither side dared to relax.

"Why do you stop and rest now?" Liang Chongbo turned his stomach and walked over impatiently.

Parking was expensive at the rest point, and he was worried about the money and parked his car far away.

"Lao Xu is dead," Li Meng threw down his pickaxe and pointed to the shocking corpse in the pit, "You still suspect that Xiao Wang escaped, he just had an accident!" How do you explain this? ”

"W-What does this have to do with me?" Liang Chongbo's eyes widened, "Walking in the wilderness, it's normal to encounter danger!" You guys came out on the first day, huh? I don't want them to die tragically, but what can I do! You can't blame me for everything! ”

Lao Li retorted, "If it weren't for you, you would have to get this stone......"

"What does it have to do with stones? Did the stone kill him? Liang Chongbo ran to the truck fence and knocked excitedly, "I was the first to find the stone, but didn't I live a good life this way!" They are just unlucky, how can they blame the stone? ”

The atmosphere was instantly deadlocked.

"If you want me to see, the problem is in the wilderness! Let's hurry up and get the things there, and when we enter the city, won't it be all right? Liang Chongbo looked bitter, "Let's quarrel here, and we can't get a result, isn't it a waste of time?" ”

"This ......," the workers said to him, and the anger just now gradually turned into hesitation.

Suddenly.

"Ahh Help me! Help! ”

A terrible hiss pierced the sky, and a rubber hose flew in the air, like a snake that had lost its restraints, flying and slashing across the sky, splashing and hanging down weakly.

Whoa—

The intermittent stream of water was still sprayed.

Sun Laiwang, who was still helping the little monkey pinch the water pipe just now, fell to the ground, crying inarticulately, holding the ground with both hands, and crawling back with all his might.

His eyes widened to the limit, and his eyeballs trembled in horror.

"What's wrong!"

Ren Yi yelled, threw down the cigarette butt and rushed over.

As soon as he ran over, he felt a hot breath in his face.

The stevedore monkey fell to the ground on his back, his eyes wide open, his body swollen, and his skin a bright red color.

The heat emanated from him, white as if it had just come out of a hot pot.

The air gradually filled the air with a smell of cooked meat that made everyone very disgusted.

"This, this is ...... Cooked? Ren Yi muttered.

Sun Laiwang's eyes widened in disbelief, he retreated frantically, and then he couldn't bear the huge impact anymore, he staggered up with a roar, turned around and ran.

"Stop it, no one can run away!"

Ren Yi shouted, and a group of stevedores rushed forward in a hurry and caught Sun Laiwang not far away, and several people were fighting and rolling together.

"I don't know! I don't know anything! ”

"I didn't do it!"

Sun Laiwang was already frightened and collapsed, and kept roaring, fighting with everyone with red eyes, and his strength was surprisingly great.

Ren Yi squatted alone beside the hot corpse, his brows furrowed tightly.

This is not a good situation. Now that two people have died, he has no clue.

"It happened again suddenly, without warning. And the tragedy was done in an instant. ”

Ren Yi stretched out his hand and pinched the water pipe that was still gushing on the ground.

He stretched out his hand, and the water was cold, even icy. Sun Laiwang should also be able to prove this. He was pinching the water pipe, and if it was boiling water, he would have been the first to feel the burn.

Besides, the water flow of this water pipe is not large, and it should be impossible to scald a large living person in an instant.

So when this weirdness works, it should only be aimed at a certain person. And it is not achieved through physical change.

Combined with Lao Xu's death, its method of killing people is not single.

Ren Yi looked up at the sky, and the six red suns were still hanging on the horizon. The previous conjecture was completely overturned, and the time when the strange occurred had nothing to do with the light.

Now, it has reached an impasse again......

Ren Yi smoked the remaining cigarette butts in his hand in one go, remembering a rumor.

It is said that a scientist once conducted an experiment to prove the importance of spiritual power. The subject was locked in a cold storage and told that he had turned on enough air conditioning to freeze a person to death, but he didn't. Believing that he would freeze to death, his body did gradually show signs of body temperature loss and frostbite.

It's a bit similar to this. Ren Yi pondered.

"Could it be that some kind of spiritual realm ability or descendant silently modified the little monkey's mental state and implanted him with the idea that he would be scalded to death by cold water?"

The noisy sound not far away weakened, and everyone finally subdued Sun Laiwang, but his mental state was still very unstable, he couldn't listen to anything, and he trembled vigorously.

"It's not me, I didn't kill him!"

"There's something strange about this stone!" A stevedore suddenly jumped up, pointed to the flatbed truck and excitedly said, "It's all because of it!" Let's open it and take a look! ”

"But, but Mr. Zhao said, can't you open it?" When Lao Li, the leader, heard this, he immediately showed a look of embarrassment and stood up.

"Let's open it, and see what can happen?"

"Brother Li, things belong to other people, but our lives are our own!"

"Things belong to other people, why are you so worried?"

"We're tired and tired all day long working for others, don't end up putting ourselves in, and there's nothing left."

If this stone is really weird......

Lao Li's father, mother, wife and children are all in the city. This really hit Lao Li's weakness.

"You guys!" When Manager Liang heard their dispute, his face instantly turned red, and he shouted angrily, "How dare you! ”

"If you let the bandits target Mr. Zhao's things, you can't afford to lose your heads!"

"There is such a big thing," Ren Yi also walked over and said, "Lao Xu is dead, the little monkey is also dead, and Xiao Wang is nowhere to be found." Manager Liang, they just asked to take a look at the goods, not too much, right? ”

"They are our laborers in Qinnan, and they have all signed agreements, what does it have to do with you?" Liang Chongbo looked at Ren Yi and asked with a sneer.

Ren Yi looked back calmly: "I was hired by them, so I had to take care of it." ”

Liang Chongbo turned around and scolded again: "You guys eat things inside and outside!" Mr. Zhao raised you and gave you how many benefits? Wife and children, which one doesn't rely on Mr. Zhao's charity to have a bite to eat? ”

Speaking of wives and children, the workers suddenly fell silent again.

Ren Yi stepped forward and said solemnly to everyone:

"There are two possibilities for this matter, one is that some force has hired killers to snatch the transported things by killing you one by one."

"The second is that the things you are transporting are already strange."

"Now that there are human lives, what do you care about these regulations? The most important thing at the moment is to eliminate all possible options. ”

"Now we only need to look at it to eliminate a distraction, avoid many detours, and find the problem more directly."

Ren Yi pointed to the tarpaulin that was obviously bulging in the carriage, "If this stone is really weird, and it is transported into the city of Qinnan, won't it harm more people?" ”

"I'm entrusted by someone anyway, you are my employer, let's vote."

As soon as Ren Yi said that, the workers gradually became angry.

The circle of people became more and more noisy, and Lao Li finally got his heart crossed, and spit out the yellowed cigarette holder to the ground: "Cheng." Then let's go! ”

Ren Yi jumped into the carriage.

"There are so many outsiders here, they will be targeted!"

Manager Liang jumped to his feet in anger below.

Ignoring his obstruction, the crowd untied the hemp rope that tied the boulder horizontally, and the oilcloth wrapped around it gradually loosened.

Ren Yi lifted it open.

"Ahh Everyone couldn't help but exclaim in amazement the moment they saw the boulder.

It's far from the legend that everyone talked about that day.

No corals, no beauties.

Only a strangely shaped shadow emerged from the gelatinous substance.

It was human-sized, stiff humanoid, but with no limbs.

The atmosphere around was a little weird all of a sudden.

After a while, gradually some of the brave workers narrowed their eyes and leaned in.

"Cut! Isn't this just a dolphin! What's all the fuss about! He took a sip and shouted.

"Where are the beauties? How can you see it? Another worker scrambled to get up.

"Uh...... I pondered...... The light shines from here, and the shape inside is a bit like a human figure? ”

"Mr. Zhao's family loves art, and art is all based on imagination."

"Whew! I think it's like you owe me three hundred! ”

"The surname Liang is really good at fooling." Someone whispered, "It's coral, it's a beautiful dress, it's a beautiful woman's ......."

The crowd was gossiping.

Ren Yi looked at the shadow and fell into deep thought.
