Ghost Blowing Lantern II

Chapter 57 Rotting corpse in brick kiln

We have seen hanged ghosts, but we have never seen a dead person hanging head down in the air. Only the upper body can be seen, and the body is covered with dirt. It looks like it has just crawled out of a grave, and its nose and mouth are almost rotten. It's gone. A big piece of his chin has fallen off, and his face is white and full of maggots. Only his two eyes are bright and lively, but they are different from the eyes of a living person. The eyes of this dead corpse cannot move, even though they are still alive. It was shining brightly in the light of the lighting tube, but his eyes were staring straight at us.

The fat man and I were both shocked. Although our calves were almost cramped, we were able to press the hanging zombie's head against the wall with the scabbard. The fat man panicked and wanted to take out a gun to shoot. While staring intently into the eyes of the dead body, he said anxiously to the fat man: "Quickly stare into its eyes, and be sure not to blink."

The zombie hanging from the ceiling exuded a salty smell like rotten fish. It stretched out its two claws like old trees and tried to kill it. The fat man and I used our scabbards to cut off its head. It pushed against the wall, but the zombie was so strong that we could only hold it down even with all our strength.

The head and face of the corpse that emerged from the soil on the roof were less than half rotten. White maggots crawled in and out of the chinless mouth. Although its eyes were dull, they were illuminated by the beam of the engineer's lighting tube. Down, the light suddenly burst out, and the power became even greater. Although there was a scabbard in the middle, its long and curved nails still touched the fat man's shoulders.

The fat man panicked: "Lao Hu, didn't you tell me that there is no ghost? What the hell is this?" I said I didn't know that the clothes this man was wearing didn't look like the prisoners locked up here. He looked militaristic. The ghost has come back to life.

The two of us were in an inexplicable panic. As we were talking, the fat man wanted to reach out for the Southern 14-style shooting gun. Seeing this situation, I didn’t know what I was facing now. How could I still be alive with only half of my head left? people? Moreover, looking at the soil maggots on this corpse, it looks like it crawled out of the grave, but its eyes are sharper than those of a living person, and it looks like the strange eyes of a night owl.

I tried my best to support the scabbard. When I saw the fat man trying to use the pistol, I thought that this thing could attack people with half of its head left. Even if I put the gun against its head and made two transparent holes in it, it wouldn't work. , this thing must be a dead zombie, I hurriedly told him not to use the tortoise box, it didn't work at all, and quickly stared at its eyes, and never blinked.

It is so common to find corpses in the mountainous areas of Northeast China. Anyone you ask can tell you several different versions. There are various reasons and different ways to deal with them. It is impossible to tell whether one of them is true or false. In the various zombie legends I know, zombies can be divided into several categories. Some have long hair on their bodies called evil corpses. The corpse hair is very long, and some look like animal manes. Folks also call these zombies. In fact, Sha also means evil. This is a corpse transformation caused by the special underground soil environment. People will not touch it and the corpse will not attack people.

There is another type that is very similar to the first one. The zombies have a layer of short and dense hair like old steamed buns. In this way, they are not actually zombies, but there are graves where dead people are buried and they are deliberately connected to the old fox hole. As a means of preventing theft, a talisman is buried in the tomb. Once someone digs the grave and wants to steal valuables in the tomb, the fox fairy will be lured to the dead person in the coffin by the talisman. Even if the tomb robber runs away at the right time, the fox fairy can still pay for it. Chasing and haunting the dead until the tomb robber is tortured to death is a very sinister and vicious move. To deal with this situation, you must bring realgar wine, cut off the white chicken head, and scare away the old fox on the zombie.

There is another type that is the most common. The corpse is dark purple in color and the whole body is as stiff as iron stone. Before the corpse is put in the local morgue, if the corpse shows such changes, in addition to lighting up the lantern and sending people to look after it, the soles of the feet must be tied with red ropes. , is called a stumbling rope. If the long light goes out, or if a wild cat touches a dead body, it will immediately pick up the corpse. It will stand up so big that it can sink into the human flesh with just ten fingers. To deal with this situation, Only use bamboo poles to support the zombies first, and then cover them with fishing nets and burn them.

The tomb robber Mojin Xiaowei must use black donkey hooves to deal with zombies. However, let's not talk about black donkey hooves. He doesn't even have fishing nets or bamboo poles. Although he is not bare-handed, he only has an empty scabbard. Although he can temporarily kill the corpse I was leaning against the wall, but I couldn't hold on for a long time. In the situation we encountered, it seemed that it was a zombie with its eyes closed. There must be a lingering resentment in my heart before death. I saw the rotting corpse staring. Staring directly, I remembered an ancient method. Legend has it that a zombie opens its eyes by the breath of a living person. It stares at it with its eyes. If a living person also stares at each other with their eyes facing each other, the yang energy will restrain the yin energy. Its cold corpse energy is suppressed and cannot attack. If the eyes of a living person blink a few times or their eyes are distracted, the Yang energy will be dispersed and weakened, and zombies will take advantage of the situation.

Thinking of this, I quickly stared at the eyes of the rotting corpse, but a person can't hold on for very long without blinking. I quickly told the fat man to do as I said, and the two of them took turns staring at each other. The zombies didn't dare to relax even a little bit, they just stayed there and couldn't move forward or retreat.

But the rotten corpse covered in maggot mud did not lose its strength at all, and its white nails were curled towards us. At this time, we were facing the corner. Seeing the emergency, the two of them did not care to look at the dead man anymore, and they both Lowering our heads to avoid it, the nails were like steel hooks, passing over our heads with a swishing sound, scratching a few marks on the brick wall.

I shouted to the fat man: "Staring doesn't work. This is probably not a fucking zombie. Just push it away and run..." But as soon as I withdraw my hand, the rotten corpse will immediately pounce on me, and I can't leave in such a hurry. , and no one could hold it up, even if I wanted to go find the knife. After a while, the fat man and I both had sweat on our foreheads.

As the saying goes: "A man is judged by his courage, a tiger is judged by his power." At first, Fatty and I were confused, and our courage was reduced by half. But after the stalemate for about half a minute, we gradually came to our senses and saw the rotting corpse. It's really amazing. It has a silver-covered scabbard pressed against its head. We poked one end of the scabbard hard, but its corpse skin is as hard and tough as leather. No matter how hard you try, you can't poke it. Through its head, the wounds that had stopped bleeding on me and the fat man were opened due to excessive exertion. I saw that if I continued to consume more, it would be a dead end, but it was difficult to escape, so I had an idea and came up with a plan. .

The fat man and I took advantage of the narrow terrain in the corner to make a horizontal cut on one end of the scabbard in our hands, and stuck it firmly between the angle formed by the two brick walls. In this way, the rotten blade hanging from the ceiling was The corpse was nailed to the corner. Even if it could break free, it would not be a temporary success. We took the opportunity to get rid of the stalemate. We dared not stay any longer. The two turned around and left. As soon as their feet moved, Suddenly, several white hands stretched out from the thick soil on the floor of the brick house and grabbed the ankles of the fat man and me.

In the darkness, Fatty and I were unprepared. We were immediately thrown to the ground and had our mouths full of mud. Looking at the arms sticking out from the mud, they were all dry and white, covered with maggots, with long claws. He scratched his fingernails randomly, and it turned out that this huge brick room was filled with dead bodies.

I fell to the ground and pushed the arms away with my feet, and used my strength to crawl towards the iron gate. However, I don’t know how many rotting corpses and dead people were buried under the mud. At this time, they were probably all killed by the yang energy. , crawled out of the soil in piles. In the midst of this chaos, I seemed to hear a bigger noise deep in the brick room. It seemed that there was something unimaginably huge buried under the soil. It has broken out of the ground, and the sound heard is definitely not something that a rotting corpse can make. The sound is getting louder and louder, and the sound is like ripping silk, as harsh as tearing rags.

The fat man and I couldn't even stand up, so we could only use our hands and feet to step on the corpse's head and arms to crawl out. At this time, we had almost climbed to the iron door. We were almost at the door, but we had just taken two steps. However, they were pulled back three steps by the dead arms in the dirt, and they were getting further and further away from the escape exit.

We wanted to call out to the old sheepskin outside the iron gate, but our voices were covered by the loud noise behind us. Waves of despair surged from the bottom of our hearts. This brick kiln seemed to be connected to the entrance to hell. Once you enter, you cannot get out. , were slowly dragged into the eighteen levels of Avici Hell by the hungry ghosts. Thinking of these people, their whole bodies felt like being drenched in ice water, and they were shivering unbearably. It is almost impossible for us to see the day when the world revolution is victorious.

When I was desperate and helpless, a bright light flashed before my eyes. It turned out that Lao Yangpi heard something wrong in the brick room at the door, and came in to investigate with a knife and a candle. He was originally most afraid of ghosts and ghosts, but when he saw the fat man and I were in trouble, he couldn't stand by and watch. , blowing his beard and staring, he swung his sword, and the blade of Kangxi's sword passed by, immediately cutting off several arms that were entangled with my legs and feet. I stepped lightly, stood up immediately with my hands on the ground, and then dragged the fat man up.

Lao Yangpi was startled by the loud noise deep in the brick kiln. He stood there and wanted to see what was inside. I wanted to tell him to run away, but his mouth was open and he couldn't make a sound, so he and the fat man had to push each other. After being dragged away, the three of them hurriedly pushed the door open and escaped. They only heard a rumbling sound behind them, like the uprooting of an old tree. The brick room was extremely noisy, shaking the underground passage, but the engineers The lighting tube can only illuminate a few steps in front of us, so we can only hear its sound and cannot see its shape. At this time, we are not allowed to guess and observe what giant thing has broken out of the ground. At present, everyone is injured and cannot get away quickly. To escape, he had to close the iron door of the "Zero" Brick Room first, hoping that the extremely heavy iron door could block it.
