Everyone in the group saw the moving coffin lid. First, a blue and white claw pierced out, followed by a red sleeve.
The surrounding temperature instantly dropped to freezing cold, and at the same time, there seemed to be a strong smell of blood in the air. The few people who were standing at the door subconsciously took a few steps back, ready to escape at any time.
Then they saw the "thing" coming out of the coffin, a broken body, most of the chest was missing, only one hand was left, and the other hand only reached the wrist. The wound on the wrist seemed to be torn and gnawed by something.
Pass.
They all thought of the vicious dog with the severed hand in its mouth.
The strange thing in red was on all fours, its movements seemed extremely stiff, but it was strangely very fast, and it was at the side of the village chief in an instant.
At this time, the village chief, who had been cursing just now, was speechless. He just collapsed on the ground and stared at the strange thing in red with his eyes wide open and frightened, and his throat made a gurgling sound.
Sheng Nuan took the opportunity to hide behind Xie Lan, and Xie Lan took her hand without looking back. His slender fingers and palm were warm.
The strange creature in red crawled onto the village chief... Her hair suddenly grew longer and wrapped around the village chief as if it came alive.
The village chief struggled desperately but could not break free, and was soon dragged into the coffin.
The coffin shook violently for a few times, followed by the sounds of tearing, chewing and swallowing, accompanied by thick blood.
Everyone in the group looked ugly.
A moment later, a bundle of bloody ropes was thrown out of the coffin.
It's the rope that Meizi hung herself on...
An eerie voice sounded, reading out a dozen names in succession: "Use this rope to bring them all to me, otherwise, you will all die tonight!"
Even though an enemy of hers had been sent to her, the female ghost did not become gentle at all, and every word she spoke was as hardened as ice.
At this moment, the entire mourning hall seemed to have entered winter, and even the flames of the candles in front of the altar had condensed into ice.
As the coffin lid slammed shut, in an instant, the frost covering the mourning hall dissipated, and the flame of the candle ignited again.
It was also at this time that everyone realized how powerful this strange creature in red was.
The rest of the people were still silent, and Bai Zhuo trembled and said: "There are so many people, how are we going to catch them?"
They have seen how vicious the men in the village are. There are only a few of them, and they can be easily dealt with by the villagers.
The rest of the people looked at the bloody rope on the ground, but no one came forward.
Xie Lan was the first to move. He walked over and bent down to pick up the rope. His hands felt chilly. He turned back and saw Sheng Nuan immediately stepped back and looked at the rope with fear.
He paused slightly, then handed the rope to He Cheng: "Take it."
He Cheng immediately took it obediently.
Xie Lan glanced at those people: "This rope must have special power, not to mention, no matter what, I have to try it... Of course, this is just a suggestion."
He took Sheng Nuan's hand and walked out, and He Cheng quickly followed.
Yang Zhao and Chen Chen also followed... Mr. Zhong gritted his teeth and chased out with his little white skirt.
They all saw how powerful the female ghost in red was just now, and no one wanted to face the female ghost's wrath at night.
Bai Zhuo was the last one to walk. Before walking out, she couldn't help but look back at the paper man who was exactly the same as her sister. After a moment's pause, she turned around and chased after her.
The first person on the list they met was the village chief's son.
Before they had time to inquire about the village chief's home, they saw a tall man walking toward them menacingly on the road: "Where is my father? Where have you hidden my father?"
The man looked sinister.
He Cheng glanced at Xie Lan and walked towards the man with the rope behind his back: "Brother, you are the son of the village chief. Let me tell you, something happened to the village chief!"
The man's expression suddenly became more cruel: "What happened to my father?"
Brother He Cheng hugged each other's shoulders nicely: "Listen to what I'm telling you..."
Before he finished speaking, the rope in his other hand shook. On the opposite side, Yang Zhao grabbed the other end of the rope and wrapped his hands around the man's neck.
Their original intention was to strangle the person's neck and control him, but what they didn't expect was that as soon as the rope touched his body, the extremely vicious man let out a scream, and the next moment... he fell lightly to the ground and turned into a paper man!
Everyone was stunned for a moment. Someone from the nearby house heard the noise and came out. The group of people gathered around to block the view.
Xie Lan picked up the paper figure from the ground and handed it to He Cheng: "Take this."
The rest of the people also realized something at this time: they made a deal with the female ghost, and this paper man... is probably the gold medal from the female ghost to avoid death!
He Cheng didn't want it and pushed the paper manikin to Xie Lan: "You and Tianxin can hold it. I'm familiar with this trick."
Good games are his forte...
The rest of the people had also realized something, and continued to move forward to collect the "paper figures" according to the list.
With Meizi's rope, everything after that becomes very simple. They only need to find the villagers to ask for directions, then find the target, and put the rope on them when they are not prepared. The other party will turn into a paper man and be easily captured by them.
Until he passed by Yan's house... Yan's wife was also on the list. Mr. Zhong walked towards Yan's house with a rope and a fake and gentle smile on his face.
However, before she even got close, Yan Po suddenly opened her one eye wide and shouted at the top of her lungs.
"Come on, someone is stealing a pig, someone is stealing a pig!"
Mr. Zhong's expression suddenly changed. He no longer cared about disguise, gritted his teeth, stepped forward and directly put the rope around Granny Yan's neck.
In an instant, Granny Yan turned into a one-eyed paper man, and at the same time, many strong men with weapons rushed out of the surrounding rooms whose doors were originally closed, and rushed toward the group of them with curses.
At this time, only Mo Ying in the little white dress had no paper figures in her hands, but no one paid attention to her. She was chased by a large group of strong men holding weapons. Everyone turned around and ran towards the ancestral hall.
Mo Ying desperately followed Mr. Zhong and cried: "Uncle Zhong, I don't have a paper man yet, I don't have one yet."
A cold look flashed in Mr. Zhong's eyes, and he said perfunctorily to her: "Get out of here first. It's still early before dark and there's still time. Don't get caught by them."
The men behind her were so fierce that it was not easy to put on a rope. Mo Ying had no choice but to grit her teeth and follow Mr. Zhong.
Xie Lan pulled Sheng Nuan and ran ahead with He Cheng.
But as they ran, they noticed that the sky around them began to darken, and at the same time, fire appeared in the houses on both sides of the road.
The houses in the village began to burn, and the raging flames rushed straight towards the ancestral hall. When the firelight shone, it felt like the roads in the village were flickering with lights and shadows.
Xie Lan's face turned cold, and he pulled Sheng Nuan tightly to speed up again.
Sheng Nuan felt like she was like a kite. If she had a string, she would have been flown by Xie Lan...
But just when they arrived at the entrance of the ancestral hall, dense green eyes suddenly appeared on the road ahead, blocking the road and looking at them. ⑧①ZW.????m
It was a group of dogs... The dogs looked like wild beasts that wanted to eat humans. They roared and rushed toward them.
Xie Lan raised his foot and kicked one away, pulling Sheng Nuan forward quickly.
Although Bai Zhuo is thin, he is very fast. Yang Zhao and Chen Chen are not slow either. Only Mr. Zhong and Mo Ying in the little white dress fall to the back.
Mr. Zhong was not a strong man. When he saw that the road ahead was almost surrounded by vicious dogs and he was only one step away from the ancestral hall, a fierce light flashed in his eyes. Then, without any warning, he reached out and pushed the little white skirt out.
The little white skirt looked at the man-eating vicious dogs with trembling fear. She was completely unprepared for the people around her and was pushed down in front of the dogs. She screamed and tried to get up and run away, but it was already too late.
The next moment, a vicious dog with shining green eyes roared and bit her neck... The other dogs immediately surrounded her, biting and tearing her, and Mr. Zhong took the opportunity to rush into the ancestral hall.
At this time, the ancestral hall was surrounded by a sea of fire. In the sea of fire, countless villagers' figures walked stiffly towards the ancestral hall.
The vicious dogs were burnt black and scarlet by the flames, but they still roared and turned around and chased after them.
In the ancestral hall, at the entrance of the mourning hall, Mei Zi stood there in red, with a sinister smile on her lips.
And in the mourning hall behind her, on the wall on the other side of the coffin, a light door exuded a milky white halo...
