Chapter 10 Collecting the Corpse
[Mansion Lobby]
Four people wearing cleaning gloves and masks are packing up all the rotten food and throwing it out of the mansion.
Wash the ground with clean water as much as possible to at least reduce the smell inside the building. As for the backyard problem, we will finally find a way to deal with it.
After the cleanup of the mourning hall was completed, the four people continued to divide their work and paste a device called "Strip Wall Lamp" all over the house.
This kind of lamp is in the shape of a flat strip and can be attached to the ceiling or wall. It is equipped with advanced battery technology and can last for a week without charging.
This will ensure sufficient light during the practice, even if the lantern is destroyed.
The whole process took more than three hours. During this period, everything in the mansion was normal, and no abnormal phenomena were heard or seen.
[Second Floor - Master Bedroom]
Everyone gathered here temporarily, wiping the sweat from their foreheads with paper towels, discussing the most difficult and suspicious area of the backyard.
Even thinking about the smell of the backyard now makes Anna feel sick to her stomach.
It is roughly estimated that there are at least thirty pigs and cows piled up in the backyard, and they are basically in a giant state.
It would be too labor-intensive and time-consuming to drag each one to the mountains and bury them, and there might be some highly contagious pathogenic bacteria among the corpses.
But if left unprocessed in the backyard, these corpses may be associated with some evil ritual.
Of course, the most important thing is the four human corpses hanging on the trees.
Roddy, who often watches horror movies, used divergent thinking to come up with a very scary conjecture.
The food in the mourning hall is for foreign guests like them, while the pigs and cows scattered in the backyard are for The owner of the tree eats it.
Maybe at a certain time, the owner of the tree will come back to life.
Thinking of this,
Vice squad leader Gao, who was leaning against the curved wall, gave his opinion, "Burn the whole tree together with the tree in the backyard, which can not only remove the smell but also eliminate the danger. ”
This idea coincides with Roddy's. Now it seems that burning is indeed the best method.
However, how to burn it is another problem.
The squad leader tapped his chin with his finger and carefully recalled the relevant knowledge of the cultural class, "Most of the carcasses of these animals have already appeared as giants. Everyone has experienced the concentration of the smell in the entire backyard. If they are burned randomly, It might explode.
It would be better to drag these carcasses to the mountains and find a slope to throw them down."
Rody, who was standing at the head of the bed, took the initiative and said, "There is no need to burn the animal carcasses, just burn them. The four people in the tree.”
The squad leader immediately asked: "How to burn it? It is quite dangerous to burn the tree directly. The methane concentration in the entire backyard is estimated to be higher than the explosive value... maybe the entire mansion will be blown up."
"Yes." Move it out and burn it, move the body to the open space outside the mansion, dig a shallow pit, pile up enough firewood, and cremate it on the spot.”
The squad leader nodded, "What a good idea~ How about we divide the work in two, Anna, you and Luo Di are responsible for preparing the firewood for burning, and Xiao Gao and I will carry the corpse."
"Okay!"
As soon as Anna heard that she didn't have to go to the smelly backyard, she turned around and hugged the squad leader who assigned the task tightly, so hard that she felt like she was suffocating.
Gao Yuxuan gave an objection, "No~ I think four people must act.
The corpse hanging in the backyard is very suspicious, and the transportation process may be dangerous. We will go directly to the backyard now and move the corpse to the house first Let’s talk about the burning outside the residence.”
After breaking free from Anna’s restraints, the squad leader punched his palm and said, “Okay, let’s go now!” , everyone put on their masks. There are four of us here, so each of us can carry one.
By the way, we also brought our sleeping bags, which can be used to contain the bodies to isolate possible infectious diseases. Anyway, we have. I have found a room where I can sleep.”
Anna, who just thought she didn’t have to go to the backyard, started to retching again and put on four layers of masks.
[Backyard]
The carcasses of pigs and cows intersect to create winding paths, and the paths are filled with various filth flowing out from the rotting carcasses.
A large number of flies are here Join the feast, dance, twirl and feast.
Perhaps after the first baptism, everyone could barely hold on when faced with such a 'magnificent' scene this time.
The raincoat wraps the body,
puts on gloves,
the shoes are completely covered with plastic bags,
“Let’s go~”
Pop!
Luo Di walked first, and the squad leader quickly followed.
When she stepped on the soft and sticky fluid surface, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
"Luo Di, you don't seem to be affected at all? We haven't received this kind of training in school."
"I often cook at home and go to the vegetable market when I have time to help I kill some poultry and occasionally participate in killing pigs. Compared with this place, the taste is just the same. It's a little lighter, but there's not much difference."
The squad leader did not doubt this statement, but turned his attention to another thing, "Wow, you can actually cook this time? Passed smoothly, can I try your craft? ”
"No."
The squad leader's eyes changed slightly, and he changed the topic again, "It may be dangerous to pick up the body later, so be careful."
"Yes."
The four of them stepped through the filth and finally arrived at the locust tree in the center of the courtyard.
I don’t know if it is due to long-term absorption of filth, but the surface of the trunk of the locust tree is actually covered with fine holes. The dark wind surrounding the entire mansion overflows from the holes.
It was so densely packed that it was very uncomfortable to see.
The four corpses hanging on it appear to be the owner of the mansion, his wife, and his son and daughter.
The height of the hanging is also very particular.
The old man who is suspected to be the head of the family hangs at the top and has the highest degree of decay.
The middle-aged woman comes second,
The two young men and women were at the bottom, and the giant view was beginning to appear. They should have arranged everything in the house before finally hanging themselves.
Rody also noticed something strange about this family, especially the hanging at the end. Above, the old man who has been dead for the longest time has a lot of black spots on the surface of his nails, which are even completely black and are too long.
It gives people the feeling that nails continue to grow after death.
Then we encountered another problem,
[How to get the corpse above? 】
The corpses of the two young men and the middle-aged woman had been successfully removed. These corpses did not change when the ropes were cut or when they were put into body bags.
The entire backyard still smells bad, without any unnecessary changes.
The next step is to take down the old man’s body on top.
Didn’t choose to climb the tree,
Rhody cooperated with Anna again and stepped on the opponent’s shoulders. Just enough to where the old man hung,
Wave the machete in your hand ~ shua!
Cut the hemp rope.
The unfixed old man's body fell downwards, almost vertically against Rody's body. Somehow, perhaps sensing the danger instinctively, Rody subconsciously moved his legs and retreated.
Because he was stepping on Anna's shoulders, this step back caused the whole person to fall backwards.
The expected collision with the ground did not come,
Roddy, who was protecting his head with both hands, was a little dazed. He could clearly feel two strong arms touching his back and thighs, providing steady support.
Anna's reaction speed was very fast. She turned around and stretched out her hand almost the moment the opponent stepped into the air, just in time to catch Rody.
Luo Di was not embarrassed at all. Instead, he was surprised that a high school student could easily catch himself weighing 80kg, which once again improved his evaluation of this foreign student from another school.
The squad leader and Gao Yuxuan quickly packed the body,
"Hey~ how long are you going to hold it? Be careful of being taken to the Academic Affairs Office for a lecture!"
The squad leader showed a strange smile and recorded this scene in the photo mode of his wristband as one of the memories of this practice.
