Chapter 1434 Upgrade Task: Two-dimensional World 39

Knock Knock Knock——

Qingu raised his hand and tapped on the dusty old wooden door in front of him, his dull voice echoed in the dark corridor.

Qingu knew there were people inside, besides the "Cuiru" she was looking for, there was also what people called "Cuiru's cousin".

Through her spiritual sense perception, she already knew the situation inside: the grief-stricken, almost numb woman was tending to a rotting corpse.

At this time, Qingu's soul's perception is still in its infancy, just like an infrared imager at night, it only has a general outline and cannot know the specific details.

The woman seemed unaware of the knock on the door, Qingu paused for a moment, and then knocked again.

After a while, the person inside numbly stopped his movements, as if leaning over to the other person's mouth, and then slowly turned his head to look in the direction of the door.

Only then did the woman hear the knock on the door, causing her to turn around in the dark world. There was some surprise in her expression, but at the same time she became alert.

Standing up, subconsciously picked up the things next to him, approached the door carefully step by step, and asked loudly, "Who is it?"

"It's me, a friend of Cui Ru's. I came here to see her."

The woman let down her guard slightly when she heard that it was a gentle and serious old man. He came to the door lightly, carefully opened the small window on the door, which was no bigger than a palm, and confirmed that it was just an old man who was over seventy years old.

She asked again: "Who are you? Why haven't I heard her mention you? And how do you know we're here?"

Speaking of which, the behavior of this cousin Cuiru was so confusing that she even went over Cuiru's family and took the corpse away without authorization!

What she said to the two old people was that her cousin was just killed by an adulterer, and she just died in a suspended animation, and she couldn't be cremated, otherwise she would fight them desperately, and then stole the body.

The two elders went through this family upheaval, one suffered from heart disease and high blood pressure, and the other was seriously depleted. It is already very good to be able to take care of the little granddaughter, and there is no more energy to fight. As for Yi Jun, his whole body collapsed, not to mention that his work was stopped, and his mental state was very worrying. He had found the place where the two rented a house before and made a big fuss, and then his cousin took Cuiru to this remote corner, It's been relatively quiet these days.

Judging by her reaction, she should have had a headache when Yi Jun came to make trouble before, so she was so vigilant.

Qingu still responded with a gentle voice: "I just arrived in this city two or three months ago, and I am not familiar with the place. Cuiru helped me a lot, and I always remember it. This time I came back to visit her home and make a living. Thank you for her help. I didn’t expect to hear that something happened to her, so I found her. Please let me express my gratitude to her face to face. Girl, it’s really not bad to be able to take this trip at my age. For the sake of simplicity, let me see her again, don't worry, I am definitely not that kind of talkative old man."

Cousin Cuiru was finally persuaded by this kind and grateful "old man" and she let go.

After confirming that there was no one else outside, he carefully opened the door and let Qingu in.

As soon as Qin Gu entered the door, the cousin slammed the door shut, unlatched the latch, and pushed an old table next to it to block it.

Qingu raised his eyes and looked around the room. Entering the door was a large living room. There was nothing in it except a table that didn't fit at all and two stools that were crooked on the ground. It looked very empty.

There were two bedrooms inside, one of which was lighted and gave off a slight chill.

Qingu pretended to be trembling like an old man, while rambling on about how he met Cuiru back then, which was actually half true, and walked towards the cold room.

Cousin Cuiru looked at Qingu in a daze for a moment, feeling that this old man was a bit unusual—after all, no one had told her where she lived now, and it was very remote, how did she, an old woman in her late teens, come here? Even if it is by taxi, others can only go to the outside intersection at most, and it takes at least nearly an hour to walk in.

But this thought was quickly overshadowed by the scene in front of him - looking closely, she was indeed a very ordinary old lady, leaning on a cane, her back was a little hunched, her face was wrinkled, and her eyes were cloudy...

"Grandma, wait-"

When Qingu was about to enter the room, Cousin Cuiru hurriedly stepped forward to block her: "Well... I know what Grandma's heart is, and I know that you want to thank Cousin, but, but her current appearance..."

That look is really scary, and even her husband, who has shared the bed with her for several years, is terrified and unacceptable, so be prepared.

Qingu smiled kindly: "Girl, don't worry, I've seen a lot of things with this old bone, I'm not afraid. I just want to see her..."

After finishing speaking, with Cousin Cuiru's dazed expression again, Qingu seemingly slowly but easily passed her without a trace and entered the room.

A thick layer of ice cubes was piled on a long metal table that resembled an operating table, and a white cloth was spread on top of the ice cubes. A young body with bumps and convexities lay peacefully on it.

This is Cuiru, wearing a loose white burqa, with a stool, a basin of cold water, and a soaked kerchief beside her.

Just now, cousin Cuiru was helping him take care of his body.

Although Cuiru's cousin took good care of her, Cuiru's body still showed signs of corruption.

The same person looks completely different before and after death, and the dead air emanating from the inside out will inexplicably generate order in the magnetic field of life, and then make the soul and spirit feel fear.

So most people would be uncomfortable with dead bodies.

Cousin Cuiru wanted to say something, but seeing Qingu's expression was calm, and she didn't make an expression of "covering her nose" in disgust or fear, she twisted her handkerchief and continued to help Cuiru wipe her body.

…… Qingu looked calm on the surface, with a proper sense of sadness, but a turbulent sea broke out in his heart.

Because, on this slowly decaying corpse, she actually sensed a living soul!

It is Cuiru's soul, struggling in this body, crying out in pain.

But no one can see her, let alone feel her pain and pleading.

Qingu suddenly said: "How did you become like this?"

Some hoarse voices seemed particularly abrupt in the quiet room, the cousin suddenly raised her head to look at Qingu, "Grandma, you..."

Qingu raised his hand to signal her not to speak, and still explained in a low voice: "You must know your cousin's state at the moment, yes, I have seen it too."

"Grandma, can you see Cuiru?" The cousin became agitated and grabbed Qingu's arm. Even the voice trembled a little, and the tears fell unconsciously.

She hastily added: "I can't actually see it, but, but I can feel Cui Ru's pain at the moment, and I also know that if those people incinerate her, she will suffer even more and be doomed, so I can't help it." Didn't bring her here..."
