"I did it to save you." Chen Ge put the skull-crushing hammer back into his backpack: "Three ghost figures escaped. We have been exposed now and cannot stay here any longer."
"Do you want to leave?" Old Wei wanted to leave a long time ago.
"The night in Coffin Village is very quiet. The sound of our fight must have spread far away. I'm worried that other monsters will hear the noise and surround us." Chen Ge had his own plan: "The three monsters just saw us.
The first reaction was to attack. From this, we can see that the old lady’s purpose of leading us to the old house is not simple. The people here are not as kind as Uncle Bai said."
Uncle Bai did not quite agree with Chen Ge: "I have never entered Coffin Village at night. I don't know why such a change happened. In my impression, the real villagers of Coffin Village would not do such a thing. They would
Just like ordinary people."
"Uncle, you haven't been to Coffin Village for many years. You don't know what happened here, so we'd better be careful."
Chen Ge looked around, then reached out and picked up the paper man on the ground.
The paper figure, which had been tortured by the boy, was covered with fingernail marks, its limbs were about to be torn off, and its face looked extremely painful.
"Zhu Fengxi?"
There are three words written on the back of the paper figure. I don’t know what kind of paint was used to paint it. It is crooked and looks like coagulated blood.
"This name seems a bit familiar." Uncle Bai came next to Chen Ge and looked at the paper man: "He seems to be one of the people who escaped from the Coffin Village."
"The names of the refugees are written on the paper figures." Chen Ge thought of some anomalies he found in Linguan Village. Many old houses had a kitchen knife placed behind the door and ropes hung from the windows.
Combined with what they had just experienced in the haunted house, he vaguely understood the purpose of such an arrangement.
If a monster comes in through the window, the rope can wrap around the opponent's head, and the kitchen knife behind the door may be for warding off evil spirits and self-defense.
The more remote the village, the more strange customs there are. Chen Ge can only interpret them in his own way now.
"Those who escaped from Coffin Village are in constant fear. Could the thing they have been afraid of be the ghosts in Coffin Village? If they are caught by ghosts, will they be turned into paper dolls and tortured as their final fate?"
Regarding those who fled, Chen Ge had always had a question in his mind: why did those people escape from Coffin Village in the first place?
What happened in this dilapidated village that caused the villagers to flee in large numbers?
"If I want to find out these things, I'm afraid I have to find a villager and ask." Chen Ge stuffed the paper man into his pocket: "I have a plan that I want to discuss with you two."
"you say."
"First, let's leave the village."
"Okay." Old Wei and Uncle Bai both nodded in agreement. They also felt that the village was too dangerous.
"Second, after we leave the village, we will search every house on the outskirts of the village. No matter what we encounter, we will capture them all." Chen Ge's eyes were bright: "As long as we don't make too much noise,
There will be a chance to defeat them one by one."
Chen Ge had carefully considered this. Every time Xu Yin swallowed a ghost, the blood stains on his body would increase. If this continues, there is a high chance that he will become a real red-coat tonight!
There is a huge difference in strength between the red-clothed devil ghost and the ordinary devil ghost. Without the red-robed devil by his side, Chen Ge always felt uneasy.
"Are you trying to destroy a whole village?" Old Wei, a policeman, frowned after hearing what Chen Ge said.
As for Uncle Bai, he is already used to Chen Ge's crazy ideas.
"Let's go outside the village and discuss what to do next." Uncle Bai walked in front, holding the jade pendant in his hand.
Old Wei's face turned pale and he followed behind Uncle Bai, while Chen Ge stood still and didn't move.
After the three monsters were eaten by Xu Yin, the white cat did not return to normal. It was still scratching the backpack.
"There should be something hidden nearby." Chen Ge kept an eye on it and glanced around as if nothing had happened.
There seemed to be a head flashing past on the wall on the left side of the main hall.
"The room next door?" Chen Ge didn't stay in the room for long and walked out.
White paper lanterns were hung on both sides of the street, emitting a pale light. Whether it was an illusion or not, Chen Ge noticed that there seemed to be more lanterns in the village.
"What does this lantern mean? Does hanging a white lantern mean that there is a ghost living in the house?"
"Chen Ge, come here quickly."
"Right away." Chen Ge passed by the house next to him and turned to look.
The wooden door is closed tightly, but strangely there is no white paper lantern hanging on this door.
"Isn't that a ghost hiding on the wall just now?"
Chen Ge and Uncle Bai kept their distance, focusing most of their attention behind them.
When he reached the corner of the dirt road, when Chen Ge's view was about to be blocked by the wall, he slowed down and glanced sideways.
The door was opened at some point, and a blood-red shroud stood at the door.
In order not to be exposed, Chen Ge only stayed for less than a second before moving forward, but his heart was lifted.
"The shroud moved on its own?"
Walking in a strange village with white paper lanterns hanging, a bright red shroud followed behind. The night wind blew, and strange sounds came from the houses on both sides from time to time. Some people were crying, some were laughing, and some seemed to be
Chew something.
As the night deepens, the whole village becomes even weirder.
"Other places are quiet at night, but this place is completely the opposite. The darker it gets, the more lively it becomes." Chen Ge went through the ghosts he encountered tonight in his mind: "The one in the valley wants to pull me in."
The ghost in the coffin seems different from meeting a family of three in the old house. In comparison, the ghost in the old house is a bit smarter."
Not even half an hour after entering Coffin Village, he had already encountered so many strange things. Chen Ge now suspected that there was a bloody door hidden in the village, and it was a completely open door that was unattended!
"Take your time and search from the outside. You will definitely find the house in Fan Yu's painting."
When Chen Ge turned the next corner, he glanced behind him again. The hem of the shroud was dragging on the ground, getting closer to them.
"It doesn't feel very comfortable to be chased by a piece of clothing worn by a dead person." Chen Ge held the repeater and accidentally bumped into Old Wei: "Why did you stop?"
"That's not right..." Old Wei looked at the completely unfamiliar street in front of him and his face became even paler: "The road we came from seems to have disappeared."
"A ghost beating a wall?" Chen Ge pondered for a while, then patted Old Wei on the shoulder: "It's okay, don't be afraid, just find someone to ask for the way out."
"There are more ghosts than people in this place, who are you asking to go?" Old Wei said for a long time, but no one responded. He turned around and saw that Chen Ge had walked away with the Skull Crusher.
