Chapter 290 Living Coffin Village

The blood-red spider silk left a line of words on the door. It was strange to say that when the old man turned to look, the words turned into blood and slowly slipped down.

"You've been looking for Sister Jiang Ling's body, have you done anything to be ashamed of her?" Chen Ge heard a trace of guilt and self-blame from the old man's words.

"Let's go into the house." The old man hung the lamp in his hand at the door, and the secret that had been hidden in his heart for many years was discovered, which left him at a loss.

After seeing Chen Ge come in, he stood in the second wooden house and sighed long: "Actually, I know who the person who poisoned the couple was."

"You know?" Chen Ge stopped at the door holding the Skull Smasher, but did not go inside.

"Probably can guess some." The old man lifted the wooden bed, and there was a coffin hidden under the bed.

Smaller than normal coffins, solid black.

"Put the coffin under the bed?" Chen Ge was even more curious.

"The coffin is for Zhu's daughter." The old man pushed open the lid of the coffin and took out an unfinished tablet with the three characters Zhu Xinrou written on it.

"Why did you prepare a coffin for her? Could it be that you have something to do with her disappearance?"

"The real calculation of this matter has to start a long time ago." The old man stared blankly at the tablet in his hand: "I heard from the village adults when I was a child that there was a coffin village deep in the mountains of Jiujiang. When interacting with outsiders, the people in the village have strange shapes, and there are many strange customs, for example, there is a living coffin in every house, and I don’t know what it is used for.”

Chen Ge can still understand the first half of what the old man said. The village does not interact with outsiders in the depths of the mountains. If close relatives marry, the probability of deformity will be very high.

But Chen Ge couldn't understand what the old man said later. What does it mean for every family to prepare a living coffin? It is very unlucky for the coffin to be placed in the house.

"Master, is the village still there?" Chen Ge closed the door and asked softly.

"In the beginning, I thought that the village was a legend. After all, no one has seen it before, but who knows that strange things really happened." The old man put down Sister Jiang Ling's tablet, and stretched out his hand to look for something in the coffin: "The coffin in the mountains There was a disaster in the village more than ten years ago, and several families escaped."

"The people who escaped all looked like normal people, and they didn't have the strange habits in the legend, so Baijia Village at the foot of the mountain took them in.

"

"But no one thought that in the same year, there was also a plague in Baijiacun." There was some regret in the old man's voice. It seemed that some people objected to taking in those people, but they didn't care.

"Who brought the disease out of the mountain?"

"Who can tell now? All the capable people in the village have moved out, and there are ten rooms and nine empty spaces. Instead, those who escaped from the coffin village took root here, and later they changed the name of the village. , is the Lin Guan Village you see now." Uncle Bai finally found what he was looking for in the coffin, and he took out a black cloth from it.

"I made this coat for the eldest daughter of the Zhu family. People who died outside should wear black clothes when entering the coffin, so that the blood would not be too conspicuous." At the back there are four sleeves that are only a quarter of the length of a normal sleeve.

"Do you think this dress is weird? The boss of the Zhu family looks like this." The old man's voice was getting lower and lower, and Chen Ge could hear the discomfort in his heart: "The child's parents escaped from the coffin village, Her mother was already pregnant with her at the time, and it could be said that this child was the last 'seed' of that coffin village."

"This degree of deformity is no longer a consanguineous marriage. It can be explained clearly. There is a big problem in that coffin village!"

Chen Ge didn't expect the answer to be like this. He looked at the black clothes made by the old man and could imagine Zhu Xinrou's appearance.

"I don't know if there is any problem with Coffin Village. I only know that this child is living in pain. Her parents are very afraid of people in the village seeing her. When she was a child, no matter how hot it was, they wrapped her tightly. I can't hide it anymore. They locked the child in the house and prevented her from going out." The old man folded the clothes and put them on the lid of the coffin, and the clothes would be ready for use soon.

"and after?"

"The paper can't wrap the fire, and the villagers still found the eldest daughter of the Zhu family. The most unexpected thing to me is the people who escaped from the coffin village together. At this time, not only did they not speak for the couple, but they also planned to kill the eldest daughter directly. ."

"They spoke fiercely. In the end, it was the people from Baijia Village who came forward to stabilize the situation. Everyone decided to drive the couple out of the village."

"The father of the Zhu family's eldest daughter is a coffin maker. He is very familiar with carpentry work. After leaving the village, they lived near Taolin and lived very hard."

"The days passed and everything was calm. I heard that the couple gave birth to a second daughter."

"When everyone thought this was going to pass, the couple ran back to the village again, saying that their eldest daughter was lost, so everyone should be careful."

"You heard right, they didn't ask someone to help find their daughter, they just told all the villagers to be careful."

"A few days later, the eldest daughter of the Zhu family was found in the back mountain, and her parents hung her up and beat her."

"After a few months of cessation, the eldest daughter of the Zhu family ran away again. Every time she was found, her parents would beat her severely."

"You probably haven't been to the wooden house built in the depths of the peach forest. That house is used to keep the eldest daughter of the Zhu family. Her father also made a special set of utensils."

"The eldest daughter of the Zhu family is regarded as a monster by the people in the village, and her parents dislike and hate her. Among all the people around her, only the younger sister treats her very well and treats her as a relative."

"The youngest daughter of the Zhu family also has a strange aspect on her body, but it is not as obvious as the eldest daughter, and her face is well-behaved, very likable, and very sensible."

The old man sighed: "My land is right next to Taolin, and I usually have a lot of contact with that little girl. She is not very afraid of strangers, and she is familiar with it once she comes and goes."

"Once I was working in the field, the girl ran over crying and asked me to rescue her sister. I knew the situation at her house, so I didn't go there."

Speaking of this, the old man couldn't continue. His cloudy eyes stared at the black clothes on the coffin, and his hands slowly clenched his knees: "I should have stood up and said something to her, even if she was a monster."

"The girl cried and left, and I couldn't be relieved. Later, I went to the Taolin for a spin."

"I saw the eldest daughter of the Zhu family in the fourth room, and that was the last time I saw her. Her body was stuck on a wooden board, and her hands were hung by hemp ropes. There were many scars on her body and she was dying."

"I really can't imagine what she went through. She begged me to save her, but I was so scared that I wanted to leave quickly."

"After a few days, when I finally got up the courage to go again, the couple told me that their eldest daughter was missing."
