Old Wei dragged Uncle Bai back in a hurry. Their combined age was over a hundred years old, and he managed to catch up with Chen Ge.
"I'm just asking for directions. What are you doing here?" Chen Ge didn't want to expose Xu Yin in front of Old Wei, so he moved his fingers away from the repeater.
"There is not even a living person in this village. Who are you going to ask for directions?" Old Wei was really worried that Chen Ge would do something impulsive, such as breaking in with a hammer and rushing into the house next to him.
"You'll know later." Chen Ge signaled Old Wei not to speak. He stood at the corner, silently counting his heartbeats, and tightened his grip on the skull-crushing hammer.
After waiting for a full minute, the red shroud still did not appear. Chen Ge turned sideways and glanced around the corner. The shroud had long since disappeared.
"Ran?"
It probably heard Old Wei's voice, so it hid.
Chen Ge put away the skull-crushing hammer and leaned against the wall to think about what to do next.
"The Living Coffin Village is a scene with a three-star scream index, but the horror it shows now is far from meeting the three-star standards." Chen Ge looked at the almost identical old houses at the end of the dirt road: "Ghosts
Building the wall should be just the beginning, it seems that the monster in this village is slowly waking up."
The three-star horror scene indicates that there must be a red coat hidden in it!
This is what Chen Ge is most worried about. He knows very well the weight of the word "red clothes".
"There is no better way at the moment. I can only investigate while looking for the lone ghost to feed Xu Yin. If he can become a red-coat tonight, then even if this mission fails, it will not be a loss to me.
"
Chen Ge is a person with a good mentality, but what he is worried about is meeting a red-clothed fierce ghost with a bad mentality. Xu Yinsheng has swallowed so many ghosts in the village, and it is very likely that he will anger him.
After counting all the ghosts and monsters on my body, Xu Yin was the only one who could take action.
Although the newly acquired Yan Danian is known as the most powerful ghost in red, his last key ability has not been unlocked yet.
In addition, judging from his usual appearance, he doesn't look like a particularly vicious ghost. If he were accidentally torn apart by the red clothes if he were released, Chen Ge would probably be heartbroken for a long time.
"You must be cautious." Chen Ge repeatedly told himself, keeping it in mind, and looked at Uncle Bai: "The monsters in the village have begun to awaken. You have been to the Living Coffin Village before. Do you know what special buildings there are in this place.
"
"There is an ancestral hall in the deepest part of the village, and outsiders are not allowed to approach it. There are many wells dug in the village, but people in Coffin Village would rather go to the other side of the mountain to get water than to get water from the well. They just walk around when they see the mouth of the well."
Uncle Bai tried his best to recall: "There is another strange thing. There is no village chief in this village. The person in charge is a woman, not very old, who lives alone in the largest house in the village."
"I understand that outsiders are not allowed to enter the ancestral hall. Why are they so afraid of the well? Is it because the water quality here is special and drinking it will cause physical deformity?" Chen Ge didn't quite understand.
"There is no problem with the water. My father once tested it with captured animals, but I don't know why the people in Coffin Village refused to use it. They also prevented us from going to the well to check." Uncle Bai couldn't explain the reason.
"Let's pay attention to these places. The more the other party doesn't let us get close, the more likely it is that the truth is hidden."
"Okay, then where are we going now?" We were lost, and the white paper lanterns all over the street were swaying, which looked particularly scary.
"Let's take a step and see."
The three people returned the same way, but did not see the old house from before. At a glance, white lanterns were hung at the door of all the houses.
"It's completely impossible to get out now." Uncle Bai put the jade pendant outside his clothes and held it tightly with his hands: "It's not a problem for us to stay on the street all the time. How about we go into the house next to it and make do with it?
night."
"There may be a ghost living in the room with the white paper lantern, but this is what the ghost old lady said. It may not be true. She may also be deliberately lying to us." Now thinking about what happened tonight, Lao Wei still feels like he is dreaming.
Same.
"Then let's go in and take a look?" Uncle Bai walked outside an old house nearby and raised his hands, but he didn't dare to put them down.
The old lady's words, don't knock on the door when it's dark, lingered in his mind like a curse.
Chen Ge did not stop Uncle Bai from knocking on the door. He was also thinking about what to do. Even though he acted impulsively, he was the only one among the three who knew the dangers of the Living Coffin Village best.
"You can't stay in one place forever, you might attract many ghosts." Chen Ge was thinking about countermeasures when the white cat in his backpack suddenly meowed. The sound was very harsh and contained a rare kind of panic.
The last time I heard such a cry was when the bathroom door of Chen Ge's haunted house was about to be opened.
"No! Something is coming!" Chen Ge reacted immediately. He grabbed Uncle Bai and Old Wei by their shoulders, and the three of them entered the house with a white paper lantern hanging next to it.
"Chen Ge? What are you doing?"
"Don't talk, don't speak!"
Chen Ge closed the wooden door. The moment the door closed, the cry of a baby boy sounded from the corner of the street.
"Is it a child?"
"Quiet!"
Seeing Chen Ge's unprecedented solemn expression, Old Wei and Uncle Bai became nervous and stood there, not daring to move.
The crying was getting closer and closer, and even if I covered my ears, the weird and miserable sound could penetrate into my brain.
Chen Ge's upper body tilted, and he did not dare to move for fear of making a sound. He could only close the distance to the door, and then use his Yin Pupil to see the street outside the door clearly.
The lanterns hanging on the door all dimmed, as if stained with a trace of blood.
The wind outside suddenly stopped, and the only sound left on the street was the cry of a baby.
It's coming!
A short arm stretched out from the corner, Chen Ge's pupils narrowed and he stared in that direction.
Soon the monster's face was revealed. It seemed to be a drowned child. It had no hair, white and swollen skin, blurred facial features, and was wrapped in a wet blood-red cloth!
"Red clothes? How can such a young child be in red clothes?!"
The baby's cry continued. It crawled quickly on the ground, as if it was looking for something. It didn't suddenly stop until it reached the door where Chen Ge and the others were hiding.
The blurred face raised upwards, and the wrinkled skin was pulled apart, revealing its true face.
The baby had no eyes or nose, only three black holes on his face and a misshapen mouth.
Chen Ge held his breath. He was very lucky to have brought the white cat over. If there had not been advance warning, given the speed of the monster outside the door, he might have been knocked down before he even had time to press the repeater switch.
