Chapter 4: The Thieving Cat that Steals the Corpse
At the same time.
Chen Yulou is still in the main hall in front.
The offering table has been briefly scanned.
The wooden sign finally showed its true face.
It was exactly as he guessed.
——It is dedicated to the goddess Bai Laotai of Pingshan.
Just the word "God".
But it is ironic no matter how you look at it.
Chen Yulou couldn't help snorting.
A mere mountain spirit and wild monster dares to claim to be a god.
It’s really ridiculous.
Kunlun stood aside silently.
He didn't know what the shopkeeper was laughing at.
But those who want to be the shopkeeper always have their own reasons.
At this moment, he was not idle, his eyes were like torches, scanning around from time to time.
Especially the coffins next to it.
If you look closely, you will find that his body is always tense, like a big bow ready to go. If there is danger, he can react in the shortest possible time.
At this moment.
Huamaguai’s exclamation came.
Suddenly broke the silence of Yizhuang under the night.
Hearing the movement, Kunlun couldn't help but frown, with impatience on his face.
But he can't speak.
I just said a few um to Chen Yulou.
“Why are you panicking?”
"With so many brothers here, can anything happen to him?"
Withdrawing his gaze from the memorial tablet, Chen Yulou glanced at him and said with a smile.
Just say so.
But my heart couldn't help but move.
Coming!
The reason why he stayed here was for this moment.
Kunlun has a simple heart.
In his mind, apart from the general leader, there are only two friends on the huge Changsheng Mountain: Miss Hong and Huamaguai.
Everyone else is dispensable.
Hear this.
Kunlun couldn't help but smile and scratch his head.
But the body is more honest than the mouth.
I couldn’t wait to turn around and stride towards the backyard.
But didn’t notice it.
Chen Yulou, who was behind him, glanced at the rafters with a half-smile at the last moment before leaving.
By the dim candlelight on the altar table.
You can still vaguely see a strange black shadow floating in the shadows.
Wait for the two of them to arrive one after the other.
The bandits in Xiling have already surrounded the side house.
"The shopkeeper's."
"Always the leader."
Seeing him appear, the crowd automatically separated into a path.
By the blazing firelight, Chen Yulou saw at a glance that there was an upright corpse standing behind the door.
Covered by white cloth.
There is a spiritual tablet erected above the head.
A life lamp in front of him has burned out like a bean.
It is crumbling in the night wind, as if it will burn out at any time.
"A dead man scared you to this point?"
Walk up to Huamaguai.
He seemed to have not yet recovered from the panic. He stood there with cold sweat on his forehead and pale lips without any blood.
Chen Yulou couldn't help laughing and scolding.
"Shopkeeper, you didn't see... grandma, that's a rat spirit."
I heard him coming.
Hua Maguai couldn't help but feel uncertain.
Then he pointed at the dead body on the door and explained with a hurt look on his face.
Generations of his family have been making a living by working together.
However, in his generation, the war was in chaos, and he had no choice but to fall into banditry.
I have seen more dead people than ordinary people have eaten.
How could you be afraid?
He felt that the shopkeeper was looking at people through the crack in the door and looked down on him.
"What about the rat spirit?"
"Can you survive after death?"
Hua Maguai hesitated, not knowing how to answer, "Anyway, the shopkeeper can tell you at a glance Got it."
said.
He stepped forward quickly.
He bit the bullet and tore off the white cloth from the corpse.
Amid the clatter, a strange and unspeakable female corpse appeared in everyone's sight instantly.
The gang of thieves were still watching the fun.
When he saw the appearance of the female corpse, his face suddenly changed with fear.
“His grandma is really like a mouse.”
"This is a fucking monster, how can anyone look like this?"
I saw the female corpse on the door case. Her skin was dry and bloodless, and her facial features were extremely compact, as if they were piled together randomly. , but her face is pointed and long.
It looks like a rat spirit in human form.
These days.
Folk anecdotes and stories of ghosts and ghosts in the countryside are widely circulated.
In addition, he is in the Miao territory.
This place has been blocked from the outside world since ancient times. Driving corpses, poisoning, and falling flowers in the cave, all kinds of weirdness have even covered it with a layer of mystery.
The most important thing is.
The place where they are staying now is Yizhuang again.
There are either coffins or dead people around.
Who can help but think wildly?
Even Miss Hong couldn’t help but pale slightly when she heard those words.
His backhand subconsciously touched his waist.
Until there was a familiar touch in my palm.
Only then did she feel a little calmer.
“What are you shouting about?”
“You’ve never seen a dead person, right?”
Suddenly.
A cold drink sounded.
"Don't tell the world if you tell them?"
Chen Yulou glanced at them, and a group of Xiling bandits immediately shut up.
“It’s all gone, let’s go and do whatever we have to do.”
For a while.
Everyone immediately dispersed.
Only Kunlun, Huamaguai and Hong girl were left.
"Shopkeeper, won't you let the brothers drag them out and burn them?"
Seeing everyone disperse in a hurry.
Huamaguai is still a little unwilling.
“Burn your ass.”
Chen Yulou's eyes widened.
If the dead body is burned, what will he use for fishing?
“…”
I was scolded for no reason.
Huamaguai was even more confused.
The dead body on the door had blue lips and black eyes, apparently due to poisoning.
Such a hot day.
If it is not burned in time, it will easily cause epidemics.
Seeing his blank look, Chen Yulou slapped him in the face and said, "If you don't leave, others will leave."
As soon as he heard this.
The quick-thinking Huamaguai suddenly came back to his senses.
The red girl subconsciously raised her head.
“Don’t look, just leave.”
Chen Yulou reminded him calmly and in a low voice.
Then he turned around and headed towards the front yard.
Now that it's all said and done, if the two of them still don't understand, all these years of wandering around in the world will be in vain.
Immediately dragged Kunlun, who was confused, to follow him.
In a blink of an eye.
The backyard fell silent again.
There is only the howling mountain wind, the cold moon and cold stars, and the silence is somewhat penetrating.
Snap——
A moment later.
A black shadow suddenly jumped down from the wall.
The sound of the landing was almost inaudible.
"...Wildcat?"
At the partition wall.
Huamaguai, who saw this scene through the gap, his eyes widened with disbelief on his face.
By the faint moonlight.
He clearly saw that the black shadow was simply a lame old cat.
I don’t know where it came from.
He has a sly eyebrow and a cunning look on his face.
After looking around for a while, I confirmed that no one was there.
Soon, its eyes fell on the dead body on the door panel.
Greedy eyes.
Dool drooled from the corners of my mouth.
"This..."
"The shopkeeper!"
Looking at this situation, how could Huamaguai not understand.
His grandma's, this thieving cat is clearly coming for the dead body.
But didn’t wait for him to finish.
Chen Yulou, who had been preparing for a long time, got lucky and flicked his backhand.
In an instant.
A cold light pierced the night.
Strike hard at the old cat.
铮——
The old cat had already pounced on the second aunt Mouse's face, and when he noticed the sound of breaking through the air behind him, he jumped up and down in mid-air, narrowly avoiding the blow.
The little god thrust into the door panel with a sharp thrust.
But avoid it.
The old cat was also frightened. When he looked back, four people had surrounded him with murderous intent.
It jumped up without hesitation and seemed to escape along the crack in the wall.
In the blink of an eye.
It blends into the vast night.
A few people were still feeling pity, but a hint of surprise flashed across Chen Yulou's face.
Pull out the small sword that was hidden in the door and shouted in a deep voice.
“Catch up!”
