Chapter 80: Mummy
Lin Yuxi and Xiaopang immediately shut up and quietly came to me. I stood up and handed each of them a piece of moxa leaf, asking them to stick it on their foreheads. Lin Yuxi asked in a trembling voice, "Which female corpse is coming?" I thought she was quite smart and guessed it right, but I didn't dare to conclude that it was a human fox. I comforted them both at the moment, no matter whether it was a human or a ghost, they should hide first.
Xiaopang and I lifted the old zongzi in the dark, asked Lin Yuxi to uncover the quilt on the big wooden box, and put the old zongzi in without caring whether there was still a body inside. Then the three of us squeezed under the altar, and our bodies were just covered by the wooden box.
At this moment, the rustling sound outside became louder, and someone came into the room in an instant. The three of us covered our mouths and noses with our hands, fearing that we would be noticed if we held our breath. The man did not turn on the light, but just paced in the outer room. After about half a minute, he entered the inner room above our heads.
The little fat guy just said that he was not afraid, but now he didn't know whether it was a human or a ghost, and he was trembling with fear. Lin Yuxi was stronger than him, leaning on my left side, holding my arms with both hands, and didn't move.
Hearing the footsteps stop at the edge of the cave entrance, the three of us couldn't help but feel our hearts beating violently. Lin Yuxi was more nervous than before, and her fingernails tended to dig into her flesh. After just two or three seconds, the man jumped down with a thump. The sound of his landing was like hitting my heart, which made me feel heavy and a little breathless.
Then, there was a sudden light in front of me, as if the lighting was turned on, but the light was very weak and green. In the dark space, plus there was an old zongzi in front of me, the atmosphere became extremely weird!
A series of light footsteps sounded in the tense atmosphere, and it sounded like the person was not wearing shoes. My heart skipped a beat, who else would come out in the middle of the night without shoes?
I was in a complicated mood at the moment. Although I didn't want the person to be a blue-eyed fox, I didn't want to meet anyone either. After all, we are not from this village. If we hide here in the middle of the night, and the body of the old man of the Lu family is there, how could we not be considered as grave diggers? Fortunately, the footsteps stopped in front of the wooden box, and I didn't hear the sound of uncovering the quilt. Then the footsteps sounded again, this time walking backwards, so I breathed a sigh of relief.
As the footsteps faded away, I suddenly had a strong desire to see who this person was, so I leaned out and stuck my head out from the left side of the wooden box to take a look, then immediately retracted my head. With just one glance, I could see who the other person was, because this thing was so easy to recognize, it was the blue-eyed human fox!
It was completely naked, and even though it was only a back view, it was still graceful and particularly attractive in the green light. What kind of woman would run out naked in the middle of the night? And could she jump from a height of more than two meters and be safe and sound? And the green light was emitted from the face, and I could guess with my eyelashes that the light was definitely produced by the green eye. So this thing must be a newly unearthed green-eyed human-fox, and I was immediately filled with chills .
Fortunately, we had foresight and used moxa leaves to block our spiritual orifices and hold our breath, otherwise it would have discovered us. If we want to subdue this evil creature, we can't just rely on the ghost-suppressing talismans in our bag and some simple exorcism talismans. Because we didn't expect it to be a human-fox tonight, everything was tailor-made according to the two evil corpses. If we fight it head-on, the only outcome is a heroic sacrifice.
The blue-eyed fox then jumped out of the cave and walked out of the old house. When it left without making any sound, the three of us opened our mouths and breathed in peace. But I was worried. If this thing ran into the village, would it harm people? The blue-eyed fox eats people. It is a beast. It was raised from a female corpse and becomes a human. When it is hungry, it needs human flesh and blood to fill its stomach. But if we run out now, we can't kill it, but will become its delicious meal.
I took out my phone and looked at the clock. It was two in the morning. Although it was still a while before dawn, it would probably spare no effort to find trouble with me tonight and would not bother to harm others. At dawn, it would not dare to see the sun and would have to find a secluded place to hide. Then tomorrow I would have one day to prepare things to deal with it and lure it out at night to kill it. Thinking of this, I felt a little relieved.
Although the blue-eyed fox had left, I was afraid that it would come back, so I hid under the altar and didn't dare to come out immediately. Seeing that I didn't move or speak, Lin Yuxi and Xiaopang both huddled on both sides without making a sound. After more than ten minutes, I slowly crawled out, tiptoed to the bottom of the cave, listened for a long time, and didn't hear any sound, so I was completely relieved.
Turning on the flashlight and calling them out, Xiaopang asked with a pale face, "What is that thing?"
I shone the flashlight on the wooden box and said, "It's a vixen!"
"Tsk, are you trying to fool a fool? Fox spirits are only stories from Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio, how could they exist in the human world?" Xiaopang still didn't believe it.
Lin Yuxi also snorted and said, "Is she a naked, beautiful vixen?"
I was stunned: "How did you know? Did you also secretly see it just now? Do you know that it is the female corpse buried in the mountain?"
When Lin Yuxi heard this, she was so frightened that her pretty face, which had just regained its color, turned pale again. She glared and said, "You little rascal, please don't scare me, okay? Do you know that my psychological endurance is particularly poor now? "
Xiao Pang had never seen the female corpse before, so he thought I was joking. He came over, patted my shoulder and said, "Little ghost, you used this method of scaring girls to scream and throw yourself into your arms , which I often used when I was in elementary school. Your skills and experience are too poor. If you said it was a female ghost, people would definitely believe it, but you ended up making a vixen, and it was naked. Don't you think what you said is stupid?"
Lin Yuxi rolled her eyes and said, "He is an idiot."
I couldn't help but smile bitterly. It's fine if you don't believe it, but if you really believe it, it's not a good thing. You will definitely have nightmares at night. I ignored the two of them and walked back to the big wooden box. I slowly opened the quilt, looked inside, and immediately gasped. Under the old Zongzi was a dried corpse. The muscles of the whole body had lost moisture and were shriveled like a matchstick. There was a talisman on the forehead, and now the old Zongzi was resting his head on it. The corpse fluid on his hair was slowly soaking the talisman.
Seeing that I had nothing to say, Xiao Pang became even more proud, and followed me and said, "I don't think you are an idiot, Brother Yu, you just act stupid sometimes, but that doesn't affect your ability to pick up girls. You want to scare Xiao Xi... No, it's Manager Lin..." The boy said as he saluted Lin Yuxi with a sly look, and the latter nodded with satisfaction. "It should be said that it was a female ghost, or another zombie, like the one in the wooden box, it suddenly resurrected..."
This kid is of the Crow sign. When I was wondering what to do if the corpse-suppressing talisman was missing from my bag, he just said this, and the mummy below moved. Its body trembled, making the wooden box creaky and creepy sound.
