【080】No Corpse Coffin

Zhong Mingfa went home drunk, but something happened on the way. He was fascinated and fell from the slope into the reservoir.

After falling into the reservoir, Zhong Mingfa kept pouring water. Under the water, he saw the water girl who had never been able to walk together in his life.

Shui Niang supported Zhong Mingfa and said a lot...

Zhiqing saw Zhong Kui sitting on the ground in a daze, his eyes fixed on the bloody body. He felt strange and asked, "Do you know him?"

"He is my father."

"How can it be?"

"It's true. My father has a brown birthmark under his neck. I have recognized this birthmark since I was a child." Zhong Kui said expressionlessly. He didn't know for a moment how his father could become a bloodthirsty werewolf since he was dead.

.

Zhong Kui carefully inspected the wound parts of the body and found that the Scabbard Tenglong had injured all the vital parts. The fatal weakness of the werewolf is the heart. The Scabbard Tenglong penetrated his father's heart several times in a row, how could he not die?

"What's going on? Zhong Kui is not talking crazy, is he?"

Wen Gen muttered, then shut up when no one paid attention.

Zhong Kui was deeply depressed and thought to himself; it would be great if his father was not a werewolf and was still well! But if he really wasn't dead, why didn't he go home and have a look? These questions were rooted in his mind.

I can't even figure it out.

Until the end, the more I thought about it, the more complicated it became. The more complicated the mood became, the more impetuous I became. I didn’t like anyone and everyone, and I wanted to be abusive and abusive.

Zhiqing was also puzzled. He remembered that after rescuing Zhong Kui, he heard that his father had died long ago in the reservoir. No one believed that it was so far away, but just a few months ago, Old Man Xia also said that Zhong Kui had died a long time ago.

Father Kui died of falling into the reservoir due to the limewater intoxication. How could he turn into a werewolf to suck blood?

Zhong Kui carefully recalled the details of what had happened, and it was inevitable that he would not touch the pain that he did not want to touch in his memories.

Zhong Kui remembered that after burying Butcher Yan, his father never came home again. Accidents happened one after another in the village. First, Wang Ermao was crushed to death by the roadside, and then the vanilla girl died mysteriously and tragically...

Could it be that the problem lies in Butcher Yan’s tomb, as we speculated when we entered the tunnel before?

There must be something fishy, ​​because early the next morning when it was still dark, everything was still sleeping. Zhong Kui, Zhi Qing and Wen Gen took the guys with them and wrapped Zhong Mingfa's body in a shabby mat from Old Man Xia's house.

So I went to check out the tomb of Butcher Yan.

On weekdays, Zhong Kui does not dare to walk blatantly on the main road. He usually walks on small roads or places with dense shade. This way he will not attract attention. This is the way of survival he summed up after escaping from death countless times.

.

Zhiqing and Wengen walked in front, and Zhongkui carried his father's body alone and walked behind.

The wind all night had dried the blood on his father's body. At this moment, Zhong Mingfa was like a mummy, light and weightless being carried on his adopted son's shoulders.

Along the way, the three of them were careful about the slippage of their feet, as if they had forgotten to say anything. Due to the heavy dew and mist in the morning, the ground was wet. The three of them walked on the wet creepers shining with dew, and there was a sticky circle around the edges of the soles of their shoes.

The grass clippings and yellow mud look like millipeded insects.

Finally, it was Zhiqing who broke the silence. He turned his head slightly and looked at Zhong Kui behind him and said, "Can you do it?" He meant whether he needed help or something. Seeing Zhong Kui shake his head and persist stubbornly, he asked by the way:

"What does the tunnel you mentioned yesterday have to do with that tomb?"

Zhong Kui thought for a few seconds and replied dully: "The tunnel leads to the center of Menling Village, to the cemetery concentration point, and to the mysterious tomb, which is the tomb of Butcher Yan."

Speaking of the tomb, Zhong Kui seemed to think of something again. He didn't wait for Zhiqing to speak. He continued: "Uncle Chen, do you still remember the tomb where there were two other skeletons in the tomb when you rescued me?"

Zhiqing let Wengen go ahead, paused for half a step and walked in tandem with Zhong Kui, and casually replied: "I have an impression, what's the matter?"

"I think that incident is implicated in this incident."

"It shouldn't be! Those two corpses were very old and did not belong to this era at all. Later, I heard from people that the relevant departments specially sent people to investigate. It was found that the cemetery was an ancient tomb, and the tomb contained

But there was nothing. Do you remember what you found after you fell in?"

Zhong Kui frowned and did not directly express his thoughts. What he speculated was that maybe his father had known for a long time that there was a tomb in the village, and in the tomb was the Tenglong sword scabbard at his waist. It was possible that his father had taken what he saw.

He took it as his own, and then something went wrong in the secret transfer. By accident, Butcher Yan took over the ground floor. The things that Dad hid were in the sarcophagus. Or more likely, that sarcophagus was where Dad had lived for a long time.

.And the father hiding in the sarcophagus is no longer his father, but an inhuman and bloodthirsty werewolf.

Zhong Kui was speechless, and Zhi Qing had no choice but to continue asking.

The three of them walked in silence for a long time, and the foggy mountain forest became confusing. The three of them were like somnambulists walking in a dream.

Zhong Kui did not take Zhiqing and the others into the Zizhu Forest, but entered through the tunnel entrance. Because he knew that it would be nothing if he entered alone, and if he took them in without the ability to resist, they would definitely die.

Unable to enter the tunnel entrance, we had to spend extra time taking a detour. Walking waist-deep in the wormwood, letting the dew wet our clothes, we could reach the tomb of Butcher Yan.

The silk grass in the mountain forest is jagged and can easily scratch the skin. The three of them have already had several bloody cuts on the backs of their hands. In the area where the three of them passed, the silk grass was trampled and fell down, and it took a few minutes to get up with difficulty.

Finally arriving at Butcher Yan’s tomb, Wen Gen stood timidly at a distance, but inadvertently glanced at the corpse of the cave-slayer. His face turned pale with fright. But he had no choice but to move a few steps to the side and hug him tightly.

My elbow was so cold that it kept shivering.

Zhiqing and Zhong Kui used the tools they brought with them to pry open the fir coffin where Butcher Yan was buried.

The coffin that was pried open was empty, not even a hair of the dead man was seen. Everything in front of him was what Zhong Kui had expected. Except for Zhiqing's surprised look, he calmly picked up his father's body and put it down gently.

Into the coffin.

Then he took the hoe to find a stable ground and started digging vigorously.

"What is he doing?" Wen Gen didn't understand. Isn't it just a corpse? There is a ready-made tomb, why bother to build another one?

"Shh!" Zhiqing hissed to stop Wen Gen's curiosity. He looked under the moved fir coffin, and sure enough he saw a stone coffin with its lid removed.
Chapter completed!
