Chapter 452 Lu Shan

The corpse looked small and shrunken, but it seemed to have been treated with some special drugs. Not only did it not rot, there was not even a trace of corpse stain or smell.

She was wearing a dark robe with hand-knitted ornaments around her neck. This should be their unique national costume and I have never seen it elsewhere.

The middle-aged woman walked downstairs carrying the corpse on her back. She looked ordinary. If it weren't for the weird corpse on her back, she would look no different from a country peasant woman from a distance.

"Here we come." The woman came down the stairs and came straight to us. She didn't say a word, lowered her head, and circled around us while carrying the body on her back. The scene was extremely weird.

Except for me, the others didn't dare to look at the corpse. They lowered their eyebrows and lowered their heads, secretly looking at it with their peripheral vision.

I held the underworld show mobile phone in my hand, adjusted the angle, and recorded everything weird. The live broadcast room was already exploding.

"A dummy, right? Is it a prop? I'm still locked in the elevator alone, don't scare me!"

"The production team is very conscientious. Where did they find the actors? They are really dedicated."

"I'm a medical student. This old lady should have been dead for a long time, but why didn't her body rot? This is completely inconsistent with the absolute signs of death."

"What a waste of money! Is it really a corpse?"

"Don't move, I'm the police!"

As the barrages passed by in the live broadcast room, I didn't pay too much attention. At this time, like Master Wang and the others, I secretly glanced at the body on the woman's back.

This is an old lady, over eighty years old at least, and very short.

She was lying on the middle-aged woman's back, giving the impression of a comatose water monkey. The old man's head was tilted on the woman's shoulder, his face was crooked, his eyes were closed, and his mouth was half-open. There was no abnormal movement from beginning to end.

The middle-aged woman carried the old man on her back and circled around us three times, and then walked around me once more, then left and walked slowly upstairs.

After a while, the middle-aged woman came back, but this time she was alone.

"Abba asked you not to run around. I will send you off after the team welcoming the gods has left." Her voice sounded very ordinary, as if she was relaying other people's words without mixing her own personal feelings. .

"Really or not? Did the old lady tell you?" Feng Minglong scratched his head. It was incredible to him that a dead body could speak.

The middle-aged woman took a deep look at Feng Minglong, and without further explanation, she pulled three knots from her clothes and handed them to the three of us men.

"Abba is kind-hearted and wants to save your lives. Don't talk too much. Tie this rope around your wrist and never untie it." The knot was dark green with an oily surface. My nose twitched and I smelled a faint smell. Fishy smell.

"Is this rope soaked in corpse oil?" I hesitated for a moment and tied the rope around my left wrist.

"When the team to welcome the gods comes, you should follow Yaomei and don't run around." The middle-aged woman said to the two-faced woman: "You brought them in. You have to take care of them. Today is Don’t make any mistakes on your day to welcome God.”

The two-faced woman nodded: "Since my father didn't chase them away, I'll keep an eye on them for the time being. However, they are not from the village. Will staying here have any impact on Yingshen?"

"I don't know. If you don't come earlier, you won't come later. But coming here at this time is a blessing, not a curse. It's a curse you can't avoid." After the middle-aged woman finished speaking, her eyes stayed on me for a long time, wanting to say something. But in the end he didn't speak, and he pushed the door open and left.

The stone building became very quiet, and a middle-aged man sat in the hall, saying nothing. After the middle-aged woman left, he simply closed his eyes, seemingly not paying attention to the other people in the room.

"Your name is Yaomei? I have a few questions to ask you." I walked to the side of the two-faced girl. When I got closer, I realized that her expression was very bad. This sudden change seemed to be the result of hearing "Yingshen". "It started after two words.

"Yao Mei is a common saying here, which means the youngest daughter in the family. Please stop shouting nonsense." The two-faced woman took a few steps back. She hated strangers approaching her.

"Oh? Then what should I call you?"

"My name is Lu Shan."

"Your surname is Lu too?" I said in a surprised tone, and I was even more certain that there was some connection between her and Lu Xing.

"Is it weird?" The double-faced girl Lushan avoided me from a distance. In her eyes, I was probably a difficult person to deal with.

Touching the tip of my nose, I said, "What a coincidence, my surname is also Lu, and my name is Lu Xing. Have you heard of my name before?"

"No, what's so weird about the surname Lu? All men, women, and children in this village are surnamed Lu. Regardless of whether they are married from outside or wander here as lost, as long as they want to settle down in the village, they must change their surname to Lu."

Hearing this, I was a little curious: "Why do you want to change your surname? Is this also your custom?"

"Lu means blessing and luck. It is a surname of great fortune and wealth. Only by changing to this surname can we suppress the disasters in our lives and continue our bloodline here." Lu Shan didn't like talking to outsiders very much, so he didn't wait for me to continue. When she opened her mouth, she waved her hand and refused: "You three stay in the room and wait for this period of time. I will send you away after the ceremony is over."

After she finished speaking, she went up to the second floor. I felt a little pity in my heart. In fact, I still had a lot of questions that I didn't ask, such as the situation of the train, the reason for the formation of this village, etc.

"Just stay still, I don't think this family has any ill intentions." Master Wang said this, but his eyes were always alert to the surroundings, and he was more nervous than anyone else.

"I hope so." I always felt a little uneasy in my heart and walked around the room.

Ten minutes later, the middle-aged woman returned and asked Shang Lushan to leave with the middle-aged man. We were the only three outsiders left in the stone building.

"Mr. Lu, do you think they are really willing to let us go? This village is isolated and mysterious. Will it kill people and silence them?" Feng Minglong sat on the chair where the middle-aged man originally sat, stretching his body.

At this time, I was standing at the entrance of the wooden stairs leading to the second floor. When I heard Feng Minglong's words, I didn't know how to answer. I know that some ethnic minorities have strange customs, but carrying a corpse around as soon as they enter the door, and then giving out a rope soaked in corpse oil, is beyond my understanding of the customs.

"Killing people to silence them is probably not possible. I see that this village is underpopulated, and they will probably force us to stay and join them." Master Wang walked up to me, pointed at the second floor, and lowered his voice: "I've never liked it. Life and death are in the hands of others, are you interested in going up and taking a look?"

"It's not good. We were told to stay here. It would be rude to just go in and it would easily disturb the deceased."

Feng Minglong stood up from the chair and objected, but Master Wang ignored him at all and stared at me with a pair of gloomy eyes: "The old lady has obviously been dead for a long time, but her body is still in the same state as when she died. This There are big secrets hidden in the village, so we must guard against them.”

What Master Wang said made sense. I nodded slightly: "Feng Minglong, you stay below to watch the wind. Master Wang and I will go up and take a look."

In fact, I had already had the urge to go upstairs to check. The decoration on the first floor was extremely simple, and the furniture was all simple handmade furniture. There was nothing unusual about it. The answer I'm looking for should be on the second floor.

Stepping lightly, Master Wang and I quickly reached the second floor on the wooden stairs.

This should be the resting place for the Lu family. In addition to three wooden beds, there is also an offering table.

The bed was a little damp, and the bedding exuded a faint musty smell. I glanced left and right, my eyes suddenly opened wide, and I found something special.

On the altar table, two sticks of white wax were lit, and in the middle of the white wax was placed a double-faced Buddha statue, with one side kind and one side fierce.

"People here also believe in the Double-Faced Buddha?!" I couldn't help but walk to the altar table, thinking of the second optional task in the underworld show - one point will be awarded for each double-faced Buddha statue destroyed.

I can destroy a statue made of clay with just a slight drop, which seems very easy.

"No, let's wait a little longer." The previous optional tasks rewarded one point for killing a talent. Compared with those, destroying the statue is a bit too simple. The underworld show will not set such an easy task. I He secretly resisted the impulse and carefully observed his surroundings.

When my eyes moved to the bed opposite the altar table, I suddenly noticed that the skinny old lady seemed to shift her body.
