Chapter 240 Lost contact! A remote mountain village
"Xiaoyu!"
"Xiaoyu!!"
A burst of shouting rang out in my groggy head, and I slowly regained consciousness. I wanted to move, but I couldn't, as if I was being pressed down on the bed by a ghost. In the end, I could only force myself to open my eyes.
…
My vision gradually became clearer from blur, and I found myself lying on a hard kang, similar to a rural kang, surrounded by dilapidated walls and simple tables and chairs. It looked like a poor family.
It can be said that the family has only four walls.
There was a small light bulb hanging on the dilapidated roof. The weak light flickered on and off, and it felt like it would go out at any time. The whole house was very dim.
"Where is this..."
I stood up with difficulty and muttered to myself.
I shook my head and suddenly remembered something. I quickly turned to look at the bedside and found that my backpack was well placed there, which made me feel relieved a little.
"Xiaoyu..."
The voice sounded again. I took out the gloomy wooden box from my backpack and opened it gently. A stream of green smoke floated out and turned into a human shape and landed in front of me. It was Ye Qing who was wearing a cheongsam.
"Are you okay?"
Ye Qing asked with a worried look.
"I'm fine. The poison seems to have dissipated on its own, so it's nothing serious."
"I wanted to come out before, why did you stop me?"
I rubbed my head and explained:
"Lao Yu's head is in the light and you are in the dark. I don't want you to be exposed so early. By the way, do you know where we are?"
"I've been staying in a gloomy wooden box, not knowing where it is."
"What about Yuxian?"
Ye Qing shook his head again,
"I don't dare to come out rashly, for fear of bad things..."
I shook my head helplessly, thinking that this girl was too obedient, and she didn't look like a ghost with hundreds of years of experience.
"You have been sleeping for three days. I was really worried, so I tried to wake you up."
"Three days?!"
I hurriedly looked for my phone on my body, but found that it was no longer there. At this moment, I realized that I seemed to be out of touch, and I didn’t know what happened to Lao Yutou, Shi Ting and Huang Santai...
I took a deep breath and began to carefully observe the house I was in. I found that there was a decayed wooden door on the north wall and the south wall. I let Ye Qing temporarily return to the gloomy wooden box, and I walked to the
A gentle push in front of the wooden door on the north wall...
"Creak..."
The wooden door slowly opened, and a faint light came out through the crack of the slowly opened door. I looked inside and found that it was a slightly spacious room. When I took a closer look, I was stunned.
It was actually full of people!
"No...I'm sorry...I..."
I said something subconsciously, but before I finished speaking, I felt something was wrong. The people in the room did not react to my sudden appearance. They sat motionless on old wooden chairs, like
It's like a sculpture.
I took another step inside, and my eyes suddenly widened!
"This is…"
The skin of everyone sitting in the room is covered with a thin layer of translucent stuff. This layer wraps their bodies inside, especially the eyes, mouth and nose, which are all covered by this layer of transparent stuff.
His expression was ferocious and he looked very disgusting.
"Wax man!" I lost my voice.
"It's not a wax man... it's a wax corpse..."
A hoarse voice came from behind. I turned around quickly and saw an old lady with a stooped back standing at the door, staring at me.
She had white hair and skin, and looked to be in her seventies or eighties, but even though she was very old, her eyes were very sharp. I was a little confused by her stare, and I didn't know what to say for a while.
He had no choice but to smile apologetically and exit the room full of wax corpses.
The so-called wax corpse is an ancient method to ensure that the corpse does not decay. It is similar to amber. It often appeared in officials and wealthy families in ancient times. It is almost invisible in modern society, but there are so many wax corpses stored in this house.
, it’s really a bit strange.
I returned to the room where I woke up before and saw two more bowls of porridge and a small plate of pickles on the table. It seemed that the old lady must be the owner of this place.
"Aunt...I..."
"Call me Shi Po..." the old lady interrupted.
"Shi... Shi Po, why am I here with you?"
Shi Po pushed a bowl of porridge in front of me and said calmly:
"You were thrown into my yard three days ago. At first I thought it was another corpse, but I didn't expect you to still be alive. Fortunately, you woke up today, otherwise I'm afraid you would have become one of those people inside.
I'm one of them..."
"Thrown into the yard?"
I muttered, then got up and walked to the door. When I opened the door, I saw that there was indeed a yard surrounded by a fence. Outside the yard were low bungalows. Looking further away, I could see the shadows of trees and trees.
Continuous mountain shadows.
Obviously this is a mountain village that is remote to the core. I was stunned for a long time, complaining in my heart.
"What the hell is this place... Yu Xian! I..."
I really couldn't say the second half of the curse word.
"Young man, I'm afraid you've offended someone you shouldn't have offended..."
"Shi Po, what exactly is this place? Is it far from Jiangcheng?"
"hehe…"
Shi Po took a sip of porridge, shook her head and smiled, her eyes suddenly turned evil, she stared at me and said:
"It's not far, it's just the distance between yin and yang. You... Once you get here, you can't even think of leaving alive..."
I threw my body and was about to ask her what was going on, but at this moment, there was a sudden rush of footsteps outside the yard. I turned around and saw a few figures carrying something quickly in the night.
came over...
"Oh? Here comes another one..."
Shi Po put down her bowls and chopsticks and walked out the door.
When those figures came to the yard, they threw the things they were carrying into the yard like garbage without saying a word, and then turned and left.
My heart tightened, as if I had guessed something, and I hurriedly followed him out.
Sure enough! As soon as I came to the yard, I saw a man curled up on the ground. This man's body was shaking constantly, and his two withered hands kept scratching his face. It felt very painful, and I couldn't help but move forward.
Walked a few steps…
"Don't move!"
Shi Po grabbed me.
Almost at the same time, the man on the ground suddenly turned over. When I looked closely, I saw a horrifying scene!
