Suddenly, a man walked out from the depths of the woods.
Ye Qiu was shocked because this person was not a zombie, but a living person.
He has been here for so long, but he didn't notice anyone else here. From this, it can be seen that this guy who suddenly appeared is not simple.
Ye Qiu took a closer look.
He found that the guy was a skinny old man.
The old man wore a loose black robe, holding a pair of copper bells strung together with red rope in his left hand, and a triangular apricot yellow flag in his right hand.
On the apricot-yellow flag, there are various strange runes painted with cinnabar.
The old man's thin face was smeared with white and red paint, and his whole person was filled with a sinister atmosphere.
At this time, Lao Xiang and the others also saw the old man who suddenly appeared.
"Director, who is he?" Fu Yanjie asked in a low voice.
Ye Qiu shook his head and said he didn't know.
"Village Chief Ge, is this old man from your village?" Fu Yanjie asked Ge Dazhuang again.
"He is not from our village." Ge Dazhuang said, "I have never seen this person before."
So who is he?
The same question appeared in everyone's mind.
Su Xiaoxiao's eyes turned around the old man in black, and a look of sudden realization appeared between his brows. Then, he glanced at Ye Qiu's back and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"Who are you?" Ye Qiu couldn't help but ask the old man in black.
The old man said nothing and shook his left hand slightly.
"Ding Dong——"
The bell rings.
"This is……"
Ye Qiu reacted instantly. Before Chen Laosan broke out of the coffin, there was such a sound in the wind.
At that time, Lao Xiang asked everyone if they heard the sound of wind chimes, but no one heard it except Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu didn't pay attention at that time, thinking it was just the sound of wind chimes. Now it seems that the previous sound was not from wind chimes, but from the pair of copper bells in the old man's hands.
Not only that, when he was fighting these zombies just now, he also heard the sound of a very light copper bell.
"Who are you? Why are you here?" Ye Qiu asked again.
The old man still didn't speak, and he gently shook the bell. In an instant, the sound of "ding-dong-ding-dong" echoed in the woods again.
A child's laughter also sounded:
"whee……"
Immediately afterwards, everyone saw a child jumping out of the woods. He looked about five or six years old, with handsome features and was wearing a clean school uniform.
"That's...the child of the Meng family."
Ge Dazhuang said tremblingly.
After the Meng family child walked up to the old man in black, he jumped and sat on the old man's shoulders, then looked at Ge Dazhuang and the others and laughed "hehehe".
The old man in black waved the triangular apricot-yellow flag in his hand, and Chen Laosan and other zombies roared.
"Ouch——"
It's like a ghost crying and a wolf howling.
The zombies stared at Ye Qiu and the others with empty eyes, and the murderous look on their faces that was already strong became even heavier now.
Ye Qiu squeezed the scalpel tightly, staring at the old man in black, and asked again: "Who are you?"
The old man in black seemed to have heard Ye Qiu's words until then. He grinned, showing his neat yellow teeth, and said, "I am an old ghost from Xiangxi."
Xiangxi old ghost?
Ye Qiu was stunned. This was the first time he heard this name.
"Director, maybe...maybe I know his origins."
Su Xiaoxiao said timidly.
Ye Qiu hurriedly turned around and saw Su Xiaoxiao with a frightened expression on his face, and asked hurriedly: "Do you know?"
Su Xiaoxiao nodded and said: "I have watched many horror movies, and his outfit looks very much like a corpse hunter in western Hunan."
"Gah, this little girl is quite knowledgeable. She actually saw where I came from. Not bad, not bad." The old man in black looked at Su Xiaoxiao and licked his tongue, as if he had seen a plate of delicious food, and his mouth was watering.
Is this guy really a corpse chaser?
Ye Qiu narrowed his eyes.
It is said that exorcising corpses is a mysterious skill spread in the western Hunan region. It is somewhat similar to witchcraft and is quite mysterious.
During the Qing Dynasty, corpse chasers in western Hunan were famous all over the world. They could use "secret techniques" to bring corpses of guests who died thousands of miles away back to their hometowns and bury them in peace.
Professional corpse chasers can control the movements of corpses.
Ye Qiu immediately figured out why the corpses came out of the coffin after Chen Laosan and the others died. It was because someone was controlling them.
At the same time, he also understood that Chen Laosan and the others did not become zombies after their death, but the corpses were controlled by people, which made Ye Qiu mistakenly believe that Chen Laosan and the others had become zombies.
It seems that the initiator of all this is the mysterious old man in black in front of me.
"So, you killed all these people?" Ye Qiu pointed at Chen Laosan and the others and asked.
"You are going to die soon." The old ghost from Xiangxi looked at Su Xiaoxiao, smiled, and said, "If you are willing to be my guest, then you don't have to die."
Tangke is a dialect in the Xiangxi area and means wife.
"Director, I'm scared." Su Xiaoxiao was scared to tears and looked at Ye Qiu tremblingly.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Ye Qiu comforted him and continued to ask the old ghost from Xiangxi: "These villagers have no enmity against you, why do you want to kill them?"
"Death? No, no, no, in my eyes, they are not dead, but they are all my treasures."
An old ghost from Xiangxi said: "I have learned the secret technique of exorcising corpses since I was a child. It took me ten years and I finally mastered it."
"When I was twenty years old, I began to study more advanced corpse control techniques. For this reason, I dug graves and stole corpses, killed people with my own hands, was expelled from the clan, and was chased by the police. As a last resort, I hid in places like Mogan Village.
It took the remote mountain village another thirty years to finally master the art of controlling corpses."
"A few days ago, I started doing experiments, and the results were not bad."
The old ghost from Xiangxi pointed at Chen Laosan and the others and said, "Now these corpses are all taking orders from me. They will do whatever I tell them to do."
When the old ghost from Xiangxi said this, he smiled at Su Xiaoxiao and said: "Little girl, if you are not willing to be my guest, then I will kill you, and then control your body, and then you will be at my mercy.
Yes, hehe..."
abnormal!
Ye Qiu cursed in his heart.
The old ghost from Xiangxi killed so many innocent villagers just to conduct experiments. His behavior can only be described in eight words——
Destroy humanity!
Totally unconscionable!
Ye Qiu was furious. He looked at the old ghost from Xiangxi and said coldly: "As a human being, you are so vicious. A scourge like you shouldn't exist in the world."
"Hey, you still want to kill me after hearing what you said?" The old ghost from Xiangxi smiled disdainfully and said, "I advise you to die obediently, so that I can keep your whole body for my own use. Otherwise, you will definitely be killed."
You break your bones and turn into ashes."
"snort!"
Ye Qiu snorted coldly, stopped talking nonsense, held the scalpel tightly, and strode towards the old ghost from Xiangxi.
