Tomb

Qu Jingjian Gu Mu picked up the man, took two quick steps, grabbed Gu Mu, snatched the man back and carried him on his own, Gu Mu didn't say a word, followed the path pointed by the man, and walked down the mountain, Gu Mu still wanted to ask To be more clear, many places cannot be explained, such as why people are not buried in the coffin, and as we all know, there will be coffin nails on the coffin to prevent the coffin from being bumped and the corpse inside falling out during the transportation process. Obviously the coffin just now was only tightly closed.

When they got to the bottom of the mountain, it was already dark, and almost no one could be seen on the road, and if they saw one occasionally, they would be scared and run away immediately.

"Is it this way?" Gu Mu asked, they stopped in front of a house, and there were two big white papers pasted on the wall of the door.

The man was more or less refreshed now, nodded, "This is my home."

Gu Mu went up the steps and knocked on the door. There is no doorbell here, only a thick iron door, so the noise caused by the knock was not too loud. In the end, Gu Mu grabbed the two big iron rings on the door and tried hard. After pulling the door and shaking it a few times, it seemed that the noise was much louder. After a while, I heard someone inside say, "Here we come."

Gu Mu retreated to the side, and when the door opened, a good-looking woman came out. Seeing Gu Mu, she was puzzled, "You are... ah!" After she saw the person on Qu Jing's back, He was so frightened that he immediately yelled, turned around and wanted to run, but Gu Mu hurriedly grabbed him.

"Wait." Gu Mu knew that she was frightened, "Don't be afraid, he is still alive."

The woman flinched a little, but still looked at the man tentatively and asked, "Gen, is that you?"

"I'm still alive, why did you bury me?" The man sighed, looking helpless.

As soon as the woman heard this, tears fell hard, she rushed over and opened her arms to hug him, Qu Jing hurried to the side, this person is on his back, can't this hug even hug him?Then put the man down, the woman was also a little embarrassed, she wiped her tears and supported the man in her family.

"Let's go in and talk about it. Parents will be very happy to know." The woman said.

The man nodded and said, "These two are my saviors, my benefactors, come and sit at my house."

Gu Mu and Qu Jing looked at each other, followed the man and walked in. The yard is not too big, and there is a grape trellis, which seems very romantic. Originally, Gu Mu didn't understand many things, so he had to go in naturally.

Once inside, there was a lot of commotion, which frightened the old man and the old lady, and the man was also very frustrated, and turned into a dead person after a good time, and scared the family members like this. No one was in a good mood, looking at the table He picked up the cigarette on the table, picked it up and smoked it, and the smoke filled the air, "Mom and Dad, I'm really fine."

Seeing that the members of their family seemed to be quite dignified, Gu Mu asked, "I want to ask, is that okay?"

"Well, you can ask." The man nodded quickly.

"Why did you confirm that he was dead, but did not bury him, but put the coffin under the tree instead?"

The two old people didn't speak, but the woman explained, "It's like this, something has happened in our town in the past two years, that is..." Thinking of looking at the family and then at the man, "It's death. Later people cheated on the corpse, so this custom gradually formed, the dead will be placed next to the selected cemetery for a few days, and then go to see it after a few days, and if they are not alive, they will be buried again."

"Fake corpse?" Gu Mu asked, this is something new...

"Yes, it was the same with Lao Zhang's old man last year. He came back by himself in a few days, and died again this year, but he didn't come back this time." The woman explained.

Corpse fraud generally means that after a person dies, he holds a breath in his chest and is disturbed by a creature before encoffining. The breath in the corpse bursts out and revives the corpse, but this man obviously does not belong to this type. Yes, they are all real dead bodies. This man is clearly alive and well, and has absolutely nothing to do with fraudulent corpses.

However, this symptom made Gu Mu think of fake death. It is difficult to distinguish fake death from real death, but it is not indistinguishable. It’s just that most people don’t have that kind of common sense, and they don’t know what fake death is. They think they can’t feel human breathing. And heartbeat, put it at home for three days, if there is no sign of survival, it is dead.

In fact, suspended animation has breathing, but it is quite weak. It needs to be tested with feathers or bubbles, and it needs to be observed very carefully. Some medical instruments may make mistakes, so there has been such a saying among the morticians. , 10 people were cremated, and 3 people were burned alive.

This ratio is quite large, so when the corpse is cremated, family members are not allowed to watch it, because they are afraid that such a phenomenon will happen and cause psychological shadows on people. Although the morticians have experienced a lot, many of them died of depression in the end.

Gu Mu and Qu Jing went back to the place where they lived. They were speechless all the way. Gu Mu kept thinking that feigning death is a phenomenon. Although the proportion is not small, it doesn’t make sense that there are so many in their village. There must be something wrong with it... …

"Brother Mu? Where have you been and why did you come back?" They had just reached the door when they saw Zhang Qi coming out of the shadows with anxious faces.

Gu Mu realized that they had been out for such a long time, so he patted Zhang Qi on the shoulder, "It's okay, I just went for a walk, why are you outside? What time is it?"

The door was opened, and the three of them walked in. The lights in the main house were still on, and the sound of laughter could be heard faintly, which seemed to be playing cards. "

"Hey! Gu Mu, you are back, I found something interesting and hurry up." Liang Bin also ran out of the house at this moment, but he ran out from the main house, obviously in his room, no wonder Zhang Qi Didn't stay in the house yet.

Liang Bin grabbed Gu Mu and pulled him into the house, holding a corn in his hand, "So who, you go to the house, I will live with Gu Mu today."

"I don't!" Zhang Qi objected.

"Hey, why don't you talk back to me, boy, if I let you go live." Liang Bin threatened Zhang Qi with his eyes wide open, and Zhang Qi also convinced Gu Muzai, not afraid of him at all.

"Not going." Two words, that is a concise.

Gu Mu saw that the two men started fighting again, and quickly stopped them, "Stop making trouble, go out to exercise if you eat too much, and watch you quarrel, don't you have something to tell me, come in." Gu Mu told Liang Bin said.

Liang Bin cast a glance at Zhang Qi, then shook his head arrogantly, and entered the room, that virtue even made Qu Jing want to beat him up, how cheap... Zhang Qi couldn't bear to show weakness and followed, Qu Jing stood at the door After thinking about it, they all went in. Why was he still outside, so he also went in. The originally small room was crowded by four old men, and it turned out to be a secret. One eye is big and small, is this secret still a secret?

Liang Bin was a little helpless, so he pulled Gu Mu over and whispered in his ear, "I found this in my backpack." He took out a yellowed booklet, a very old one, Gu Mu frowned, and continued He came over to open it and was stunned. Liang Bin said, "I found it today when I was packing up the hidden compartment of the equipment bag. It's not mine at all. I opened it and it's Scorpion's."

Gu Mu nodded. It was indeed Scorpion’s. Although he didn’t know the characters written by Scorpion, the word Scorpion was written on the corner of the page. When they came out of the tomb of Young Master Gao, Scorpion didn’t come out. At that time Xiezi's spirit was already abnormal, and Gu Mu didn't pay much attention to his whereabouts. He was always thinking about how to deal with Qu Jing. After they came out, Xiezi disappeared, and he was buried in that tomb without thinking about it.

Many times, life and death are hard to tell. Since you choose to do this, you must have the courage to face what will happen. Everything is dangerous. It depends on whether you are afraid or not. If you are afraid, then quit immediately. If you are not afraid, it is your own life to die, so Gu Mu just regrets it.

"Didn't you say that when you saw him, he was already a fool? How could you put this thing in my equipment bag? And it was hidden so deep?" Liang Bin asked, trying to keep his voice down, but thinking of When I was at the tomb, I still couldn't help but look at Qu Jing.

"Indeed." Gu Mu said, if the scorpion they saw at that time was not abnormal, then he was always pretending?But why he did that, and if he was pretending, whether he ran out now, he has no way of knowing.

Open the first page of the book, there is no date on it, only the first day and the second day, the handwriting is not very smooth, it should be that the hands are shaking a lot.

First Day

I just woke up and found that I was still in the tomb. The layout here is very strange. It is no longer the tomb that I was with Gu Mu at that time. My head hurts very much, sometimes there will be bursts of pain, and I can even feel conscious. Disappearing a little bit, the whole body is full of irritable voices, want to fight, want to kill, but I have to endure, I called for a few days, trying to find the person who is still in the tomb, but there is no one, Liang Bin and the others probably Already out, I was left here, I don't know how long I slept in this ghost place, and I don't know if it's day or night outside.The most important thing now is to get out, otherwise I will definitely die here, compressed biscuits and water will not keep me alive for long.

_I have been looking for a way out for a long time, and found that this place is like a well, except for the upper mouth, the surroundings are very closed, but I found some words in this ghost place, I can understand them all, it is a poem , the inscription turned out to be Gong Zigao, which surprised me, the owner of the tomb who did not come to this tomb would be Gong Zigao,...

The first few pages were all about Scorpion’s record of finding a way out in the tomb, and they were not long. It was not until the fifth page that Gu Mu made a new discovery. This was the fifth day that Scorpion was in the tomb. His biscuits and water were both It's gone, and the handwriting has become quite scribbled, almost making it difficult for Gu Mu to read.

He said that he found a lot of treasures in a tomb in the tomb. He thought it was the funeral room, but after he opened those boxes, he found that it was not quite right. In addition to gold, silver and jewelry, there were also some bones, which were used to store the treasures. In the box, the bones are put together and can be assembled completely. There are human and animal skulls, and the orientation of their skulls is also different. If you look at it from a high place, it just happens to be a pattern. Then he put it in the jewelry A small rouge box was found in the box.

If it was an ordinary person, they would probably really think it was a rouge box for women, but Xiezi recognized it at a glance. It was not that simple. It took a lot of effort to open the box, and found a blueprint inside. This drawing is exactly the same as the graphics formed by those skulls.

Gu Mu flipped through his notebook, and sure enough, he found the drawing in the folder, and there was also a bone figure drawn by a scorpion. After referring to the two pictures, they were exactly the same. So what does this figure mean, and why did the scorpion Become mentally abnormal?Or why is he acting stupid?
