As soon as the middle-aged man said these words, I was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but ask: "Did they all die like your son?"
"Yes, and they were all young men, all in their early twenties... Oh, unfortunately, each of these strong young men left like this..."
"Did you call the police?" I asked.
The middle-aged man shook his head, "I reported it, and the police came several times, but nothing was found every time... They said they were taking the body for examination. The old people in the village were most concerned about the body.
It is important to remember that death is the most important thing, and the body must be kept intact no matter what.
I frowned. The police couldn't find it and wanted to take the body for examination. That was right, but the customs in this village were so stubborn. It was obviously no wonder that the police were helpless.
"Brother, then I can go to other people's homes and have a look."
"Okay, when you go out, turn right and walk straight for a few dozen meters. There is also a family there. His son and my son grew up together, but now their family is also having a funeral..." The middle-aged man sighed.
I nodded, said goodbye to the middle-aged man and went out.
If only one person died, I might not have any doubts.
But as far as I know, five or six young men died in this small village, and they all died at almost the same time. From this, it is obvious that things are not simple.
Although I only came here to stay for one night, how could I turn a blind eye when I encountered something like this...
Following what the middle-aged man said, I soon arrived at another house where a similar funeral was taking place.
The door of this house was open, so I walked into the courtyard and saw a coffin inside the house. Beside the coffin, an old woman and a middle-aged woman were sobbing heartbroken.
"My poor grandson..."
"Son, why can't you bear to leave mom like this? How will you let mom live in the future..."
Of the two women, one seemed to be the deceased's grandmother and the other his mother.
I approached and two women immediately looked at me and asked me who I was.
In order to cause unnecessary trouble, I told them that I was a plainclothes policeman from the city who came here to investigate the situation.
When the two women heard that I said it was a regular occurrence, their faces suddenly became a little disgusted.
"What use are you police? My son is dead and you can't find anything..."
"Sister, I'm sorry. I'm newly assigned here and I don't understand many things. Can you let me see your son's condition?"
Facing the grievances of the two women, I tried hard to have a better attitude.
Although I could have avoided wading into this muddy water, there are some things that I cannot ignore now that I have seen them.
After talking for a while, a man finally walked out and agreed to let me see the body.
I quickly said hello and then carefully opened the coffin lid.
Even before this, I was mentally prepared, but when I opened the coffin lid again, I couldn't help but feel shocked!
The corpse lying in this coffin still looks much more disgusting and terrifying than the one I just saw.
The last corpse was at least recognizable as a human being, but this one could be said to have no trace of what a human being should look like.
Not only was the body densely covered with white maggots, the facial features on the face looked as if they had been eaten away by ants, covered and devoured by a pile of white maggots...
The strong smell of corpses assaulted my nostrils. I frowned and immediately closed the coffin.
I folded my hands and bowed to the coffin, and the two women who stared at me looked a little better.
"You, the policeman, are different from those who came before." The woman said.
I touched my nose and nodded awkwardly, thinking to myself: I am not a policeman, I am just a cremator at the crematorium...
After looking at the corpse, I had some initial judgments in my mind.
The death state of both corpses was very horrific and disgusting. Both bodies were covered with white maggots. I could also see that these maggots must have grown from the corpses themselves.
Under normal circumstances, maggots will not grow unless the body has been left for a long time or has been suffocated by the temperature.
But the two corpses I have seen now were dead for less than two days, and they both died suddenly.
In just two days, there is no way that so many maggots could grow so quickly...
“It’s evil!!”
I said something secretly in my mind, and then I said goodbye to this family and walked out.
After I went out, I looked up and looked around. I guessed that the population of this small village was very small. Now that several young men had died all at once, this small village probably wouldn't be too peaceful...
After a while, I returned to the home where I was staying.
I walked to the room assigned to us by this family and knocked on the door, thinking that I would ask Han Yun inside to open the door for me.
After knocking for several times, there was no response. I was stunned for a moment and looked inside. I already saw a shadow slowly walking towards the door.
When I saw this, I couldn't help but smile. I thought to myself: He slept with me and then killed me. Is this considered murdering my husband?
I deliberately cleared my throat and said, "If you don't open the door, I will come in by myself."
With that said, I opened the lower door and stepped inside.
And just as I lifted my feet in, I glanced out of the corner of my eye and saw a sharp sword blade stabbing me quickly!
Having been mentally prepared for a long time, I naturally raised my hand without any panic and knocked the broken dagger out of Han Yun's hand.
Han Yun, who was already injured, missed a single blow and staggered about to fall.
I sneered, and when Han Yun was about to fall to the ground, I slowly stretched out my hand to pull her, and directly hugged her waist.
Before Han Yun could react, my other hand had already slapped Han Yun's butt hard!
Almost in an instant, Han Yun's face suddenly turned red to the root of his neck.
"It feels great. This is the result of your sneak attack on me." I laughed evilly, then leaned close to Han Yun's ear and whispered again: "I think, besides sneak attacks and calculations, you can use something new.
Tricks, such as pushing me down a few more times like last time, maybe I won’t be able to get up..."
As soon as I finished speaking, Han Yun hesitated for a moment, and then his beautiful eyes were full of anger!
"You..."
"I am a shameless person, I understand! So don't force me, otherwise I will leave this glorious task of inheriting the incense of my old Zhou family to you..."
As soon as Han Yun, whose waist was held back by me, heard what I said, a little panic immediately appeared on his face.
I laughed a few times. Although this woman was a little older than me, I felt that I had absolutely suppressed her in terms of momentum, except of course the time when I drank monkey wine yesterday...
I threw Han Yun back on the bed, then grabbed her feet out, and then untied the fixed branches.
"What do you want to do?"
"I'm not doing anything. I'm going to maim your feet and see if you dare to attack me in the future!" I said.
Han Yun bit her lip and did not dare to say any more.
I quickly took out the flower of life and death that I had obtained in the tomb from my pocket. I carefully picked off a petal of the flower of life and death, then crushed it and pressed it on Han Yun's feet.
Han Yun's foot was obviously very swollen. When I pressed it, the pain immediately made her gasp.
I pressed Han Yun's feet with one hand and glanced around Han Yun's body.
Han Yun was frightened by my gaze and immediately stepped back.
I smiled playfully and grabbed the corner of her clothes with my other hand.
"Shameless person! If you dare to touch me again, I will..."
Han Yun shouted angrily, but at the same time, I had torn off a piece of her clothes, and then without even looking at her, I wrapped the torn piece of clothes around her feet to prevent
The medicinal effect of the flower of life and death is lost...
After bandaging, I looked up at Han Yun and asked with a harmless look on my face: "What did you just say?"
Han Yun had a dark look on his face. He turned over without even looking at me...
I suppressed a smile from behind. Why do I feel more and more that this woman is cuter than before after being hurt?
As soon as this idea came to me, a voice came into my mind unconsciously: That's because you were slept with, silly bird...
…………
Night fell quickly, and the host, who was still having a funeral, didn't seem to be in the mood to cook, so he just brought some simple food to us.
When I saw this, I quickly took out some money to give them, but the middle-aged woman who brought the food waved her hand and rejected my money and said: "My only son is gone, what can I do if I want more money?"
After the middle-aged woman finished speaking, she sighed and walked out.
I looked at her back, and my heart twitched unconsciously.
"Yes, their only son is gone. No matter how much money they have, what can they do?"
I shook my head, said nothing more, and invited Han Yun to come over and have something to eat.
Han Yun lay on the bed with his back to me and ignored me.
"Forget it if you're not hungry, I'll eat it myself."
Han Yun snorted coldly and said nothing...
Seeing this, I stopped talking nonsense, finished my food quickly, and then went out to ask for an extra quilt from the host.
I spread the quilt on the ground and lay down to rest without saying a word...
The night outside the house was getting darker, and with my eyes closed, I heard Han Yun on the bed on the other side, tossing and turning continuously.
After a while, the sound of rustling tossing and turning stopped. I opened my eyes secretly and saw Han Yun on the bed. After observing me for a few times, he carefully held the head of the bed to get the handbag I had placed not far away.
A few steamed buns on the table...
I was laughing so hard in my heart, no wonder I was tossing and turning, I bet Han Yun was woken up by hunger in the middle of the night!
Just when I was thinking about whether to deliberately bully Han Yun again, suddenly, I seemed to hear a dull friction sound coming from the living room outside the house!
My heart suddenly skipped a beat!
As a crematorium veteran, I immediately recognized this muffled sound. It was the sound of the coffin lid being lifted that I had heard countless times before...
[Author's digression]: Thanks to Little Taozi, Little Milk Bottle, Sister Hua, Granny An, Lemon, who is waiting for the reward from book friends! In addition, someone has already guessed the identity of the fat man with black face... and the empty white jade coffin
Some book friends have guessed the owner of the book, which is quite impressive!
Finally, Egg hopes that everyone can use more recharged Tatou to read the book "The Cremator". It has almost 700,000 words, but the subscription is very weak. If possible, use Tatou less to read the book, because it is not included in Egg's subscription.
...If you have too many tower volumes and you can’t use them all, you can subscribe to the finished volume or other people’s books to consume them, and then use the recharged tower beans to read The Cremator. Thank you!
