Ghost Blowing Lantern II

Blind Chen and his gang were all accustomed to robbing ancient tombs. They were all so bold that they didn't care about spending the night in Yizhuang Hall. They made up their minds and went to Laoxiong Ridge, which is "shrouded in mist and mountain roads are like silk". The village was far away from the crowds, and it was only when it was time to turn on the lights that I found it. I saw that the village seemed to be a rebuilt abandoned mountain temple, but the size of the ruined temple was not small. It was divided into three entrances, and half of the resting top of the main hall collapsed. , the roof tiles were covered with weeds, and under the cold moon and stars, there were groups of bats flying in the air. The broken wooden mountain door with peeling paint was half closed and creaked when the mountain wind blew.

Although everyone was brave, they couldn't help but beat their hearts when they saw such a scene. They pushed open the door and came in. Blind Chen had already found out in advance that there was a corpse guard in this hall, a middle-aged woman, because of her ugly appearance. , lived alone in the mountains and did not interact with others, so she made this living. However, she also contracted an illness and died two days ago. Now her body is parked in the back room. No one is taking care of her in this deserted mountain villa for the time being.

It was getting dark, but he was not in a hurry to rest. Blind Chen wanted to check the entrance and exit first, so as not to encounter any accidents at night and be able to escape. He immediately led the others, lit a leather lamp, and stepped into the main room. There were seven or eight dilapidated black lacquered coffins parked inside. They were all "beds" in the hotel for the dead. Over the years, I don't know how many corpses had been contained in them. In front of the coffins were wooden tablets, each with the name of the spiritual master written on it. The smell is pungent and gloomy. The corpses are made of arsenic and turned into zombies to keep them from decaying. Laoxiong Ridge is very remote. The exorcists come about once every six months and take the corpses out of the coffins. Corpse guards are responsible for guarding corpses to prevent them from mutating or being eaten by wild animals.

Huamaguai was born in Chuchu, and he was considered a relatively superstitious person among the bandits. When he went out to do things, he worshiped mountains and rivers. As soon as he entered the house, he found an incense burner on the altar table and burned a few sticks of incense for the dead in the coffin. , muttering words in his mouth: "We were passing through the barren mountains and missed the place where we stayed. We stayed here for one night. I didn't want to disturb you. I hope I will be listed as Master Haihan..." Before he finished speaking, there was a sound in the coffin, and a cold wind suddenly hit the ground. People, lights and candles are dim.

A dark wind blew through the Yi Zhuang, and the lamps and incense candles in the hands of the thieves were about to go out. The old coffin boards placed in the house creaked, as if extremely long nails were scratching the coffin lid. The sound made people's skin crawl with hair.

Blind Chen saw any movement and hurriedly put his hands on the short knife at his waist. He never liked using guns. When robbing tombs, he only carried a short knife for self-defense. However, this knife had an origin. It was the "small sword" used by the emperor at that time. "Magic Blade" is often placed in front of the car with the magic gun, soaked in cold light, and extremely sharp. Now he took out the blade and saw that the blade was flickering, and he knew that the "Zanguan" was not very clean. If it weren't for some ghosts. Haunting means hiding something evil.

Blind Chen immediately waved his hand, and he and several of his accomplices spread out in a fan-like manner, surrounded each other, and opened the lid of the coffin one after another to see if the zombie in the coffin had changed. Luo Laowai also pulled out his two guns and followed suit. With this alarm, the strange noise in the coffin disappeared by itself, and only the sound of the mountain wind whimpering outside the house, shaking the bricks and ancient trees, was particularly sad to hear.

This group of people are all giant thieves who dig graves and tombs all year round. It is said that "Yigao people are bold", and the thieves are most taboo about showing the slightest hint of timidity in front of their colleagues. They patrolled between dozens of old coffins several times. Seeing nothing unusual, they placed stumbling ropes in the coffins containing the corpses. The ropes were soaked in cinnabar powder, and rigor mortis could not be bent, so they were trapped in the coffin by the stumbling ropes and could not come out. After closing the coffin lid, he closed the door and left the main hall.

Returning to the dilapidated courtyard of Yizhuang, I saw that there were no stars and moon in the sky, and the wind was surging in the mountains. It seemed that there was a strong chance of a heavy rain at night. The method of "Wang" was to look at the traces of mud to identify the color of the grass, and the rain washed away it. It will be easier to use after that. After going down the ridge, you will reach the boundary of Pingshan. After the rain in the morning, you can go to see the situation of the ancient tomb, so the group of thieves immediately decided to stay in Yizhuang overnight. This group of people all carried murderous weapons and evil spirits. The ink fountain is just a morgue, how can it be taken lightly.

I walked around the yizhuang twice. Every house was dilapidated and filthy. Only a small room next to the back door was still habitable. This room was where the corpse guards usually lived, and where the dead were. The only room in the hotel prepared for living people. After walking on the mountain road for a day, Luo Laowai wished he could settle down and rest early. He said "please" to Blind Chen, kicked open a wooden door and stepped into the room.

Luo Laowai turned around after entering and saw an upright dead man standing behind another door panel. The body was covered by a large white cloth, only a vague outline was visible. There was a wooden spiritual tablet erected above his head. The life lamp burned out was only as big as a soybean. Even though he, Luo Laowai, had killed many people in his life, he never expected that a corpse would be poked behind the door. He was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and subconsciously reached out to pull him away. Revolver.

Blind Chen then entered the room, hurriedly pressed Luo Laowai's hand, and looked at the spiritual tablet on the head of the corpse. There was a yellow straw paper talisman on the wooden sign. He raised the oil lamp and illuminated the paper talisman. The talisman drawn on it was very special. It looks familiar. I used to learn Taoism in the mountains. I am familiar with some runes. This rune is the "Corpse Cleansing Rune" in Zhang Chenzhou's rune. It says: "There are Liujia on the left, Six Ding on the right, thunder and lightning in front, and lightning in the back." The wind and clouds, filled with evil and filthy things, are cleared away by the qi. The urgency is like laws and orders."

Then he gently lifted up a corner of the paper talisman, looked at the line of words on the spiritual tablet below and read: "The second aunt of the rat, Wushi's position... must be the woman who was keeping vigil at Changuan. She died just two days ago. According to local custom, you have to stand up like a zombie on the door panel before you can put it into the coffin. I heard that this woman is also a miserable person. I am not in conflict with her, so I can just let her stay here."

Blind Chen's three subordinates all had a bitter background, otherwise they would not have fallen into the trap of being a thieves. They have always sympathized with those humble and humble people. When Blind Chen said this, they all readily agreed: "The big shopkeeper said The worst thing is that since ancient times, the poor have not bullied the poor. We have all been forced to go to the end of the mountain to occupy a side and do heroic deeds and heroic deeds. Why bother a dead man who is suffering."

Although Luo Laowai had the intention to burn the corpse so as not to expose it to each other in the house all night, he saw that it was difficult to go against the public opinion, and he had to rely on these people to steal the ancient tomb, so he had to endure it and followed Chen Xiazi into the house. Ma Guai hurriedly cleared out a clean place and asked the two of them to sit down. Due to their status, the other three followers did not dare to sit on an equal footing with the bandit leader and Luo Shuai. After cleaning up, he sat on the ground and ate dry food packets. In the abdomen, drink some soju to drive away the cold.

Halfway through the meal, he heard thunder and lightning outside. Several thunderbolts fell in succession, shaking the roof tiles, followed by heavy rain. Blind Chen sat cross-legged and drank while closing his eyes and meditating on the various news he had learned today. , imagining the scale of the Pingshan Ancient Tomb, when he heard the rumble of thunder, he calmly told Huamaguai, Hong girl and Kunlun Molec: "It's not peaceful in Yizhuang. You must be careful tonight and don't sleep." ”

Hua Maguai and others quickly stood up to accept the order, and then everyone drank wine and kept vigil. During the chat, they accidentally mentioned the matter of the second aunt Wushi. They thought her name was weird? Does it look like a mouse? It's just that the body is covered with white cloth and her face cannot be seen. It's really hard to imagine her appearance.

Luo Laowai had inhaled enough cigarettes and felt full of energy. He had been attracted to the red girl for a long time and wanted to take her as his eighth concubine. However, this woman was too hot-tempered. After the great changes in the family, she swore not to marry, so she refused at all. Agree, and she is good at the ancient color magic tricks of the Moon Gate. She is a master of deciphering the secrets of ancient tombs. She is indispensable for tomb robbers and coffins. Luo Laowai is a big smoker. He is just greedy for money. He is not very serious about sex. Plus Miss Shanghong was Blind Chen's right-hand man, so he had no choice but to put this thought aside. But tonight, he was staying at Barren Mountain Yi Village. He was very bored, so how could he not find a chance to talk to Miss Hong.

At this time, when he heard Hua Maguai talking about the appearance of the female corpse, Luo Laowai said: "How does it look? You'll know after taking a look." After that, he walked to the door and raised his hand to lift up the mask covering the corpse. Looking at the white cloth through the light of the lamp, everyone was shocked. Luo Laowai was even more fussy: "Fuck grandma, is there really a big rat in the world that has become a sperm?" Even the mute Kunlun Moleh opened his eyes wide. His eyes widened as he stared.

I saw that the skin of the female corpse was bloodless. The color of the corpse was not white but gray, and there was a layer of less obvious black energy hidden deep in the bloodless gray. The facial features of the second aunt Mouse's face were very cramped. He has a small nose and small eyes, slightly pointed ears, obvious protruding teeth, and protruding blue-purple lips. Except for the lack of rat hair, he looks like a rat face.

Seeing the unseen and strange looks of everyone, Chen Xiazi shouted: "Noisy, unfortunately, they often boast that they are the Xiling bandits who have excavated the most imperial mausoleums. When they saw an ugly and weird female corpse, they were also embarrassed." So strange."

When picking up dishes at the foot of the mountain to pick up tongue leaks, Blind Chen was experienced and experienced, and he investigated every detail. Luo Laowai and others only focused on inquiring about the ancient tombs of the Yuan Dynasty, and did not pay attention to other things, so they did not Knowing the origin of Second Aunt Mouse, they had no choice but to let Chen Blind tell them.

The most common theory about what happened to the second aunt Mouse is this: more than ten years ago, the guard of this Yizhuang was a man named Wu. The mountain people called him "Yizhuang Laowu". The Tujia people in the mountains like to eat blood tofu. Blood tofu is made by mixing pig blood and tofu, kneading it into a lump, putting it into a bamboo sieve, hanging it on the fire to dry, and then you can eat it in many ways.

One day, Yizhuang Laowu also cooked a pot of blood tofu for toothpaste. Just looking at and smelling this thing will make people salivate. It was not cooked yet, but the aroma was already overflowing, and Yizhuang Laowu's mouth watered. While waiting by the pot, he suddenly heard a rapid knock on the door. Yizhuang Laowu hurried to open the door, but there was no one outside, not even a ghost. When he turned around again, he saw a young woman. , just eating blood tofu by the pot, there was probably a knock on the front door, and when Lao Wu opened the door, he jumped in through the back window.

Yizhuang Laowu was furious and thought, could it be that the female thieves from the mountain came to smash the open fire? The master is not dead yet, and it is not your turn to eat blood tofu secretly. He picked up an ax for chopping firewood and smashed it. The woman lowered her head and just ate. When she heard the golden wind, she hugged the pot and started eating. Escape out the door.

Yizhuang Laowu chased her closely and finally caught up with her in a mountain col. He struck the woman with an ax and chopped it right on the woman's buttocks. As blood flowed out, a thick rat tail fell out. When Yizhuang Laowu saw that this was a rat spirit, he was a person who had been guarding dead bodies all year round. Naturally, he was very courageous. When he was furious, he planned to kill them all. He raised his ax and wanted to chop again, but the woman was crying. He begged: "Today I smelled the aroma of blood tofu in the pot. I really couldn't resist the temptation, so I came out to steal some food. Unexpectedly, my husband chopped off his tail. He will never be able to change back to his original shape. If my husband doesn't think my appearance is ugly, , I am willing to marry my husband and spend the rest of the day together."

Lao Wu of Yizhuang has been a bachelor for many years. He has been guarding Yizhuang for many years. Men try to avoid him, let alone any women who are willing to marry him. It is because of the long drought that there has been no dry dew. A closer look showed that although the woman had a rat face, she still had the body of a woman, so he married her that night. A few years later, Yizhuang Laowu went to the mountains to collect medicine to treat his wife's illness. As a result, he was licked by an old bear. They had no children. When Yizhuang Laowu died, only Wu was left as a widow. She still relied on guarding Yi. Zhuang makes a living.

The elderly people in the village all know that the actual situation is not like this. Wu Shi is not a big rat who turned into a spirit, but a woman who fled from the mountains and was taken in by Lao Wu of Yizhuang. Because she looks so weird, The young people in the mountains made random arrangements, and the rumors became more and more common. As time went by, they all called her the "Second Mouse Aunt". Many mothers used her to scare their disobedient children, and if they were naughty, they would be careful not to be ratted in the middle of the night. The second aunt hugged her, and the children often stopped crying and fussing when they thought of the big rat-like woman.

Blind man Chen is young, well-educated, extremely intelligent, and has the ability to read faces. It is not surprising to know that there are people with such deformities in the world. However, they are destined to suffer misfortunes, just like ugly people wearing rags. How can they be born in this life? ? I am here to point it out for everyone and stop them from making nonsense speculations.

Luo Laowai also felt that what he had just done was self-defeating and had lost his identity, so he had to find another way to talk. He wanted to show off his knowledge and take the opportunity to gain some face when he came back, so he asked Huamaguai: "Kaaizi, I heard that your ancestor was a famous autopsy expert." Kisaku, can you tell why this second aunt died?"

Hua Maguai turned around and looked at the female corpse. He only rolled his eyes twice before he saw the difference. His face changed color slightly in an instant and he replied: "Mr. Hui Luo, I'm so young. I saw that this female corpse's lips are dark and blue." , her facial features were blocked, and her whole body seemed to be full of corpse poison. Could it be that some rice dumplings in Yizhuang had licked the corpse... and threw her to death?"
