Chapter 9 Old House [4]
Xiaolong helped the old man to walk into the house. Just as the two of them stepped over the threshold, the door behind the door creaked shut. Xiaolong turned his head immediately, but the old man held her arm tightly and said with a wry smile: "It's an old house, the door is closed!" It's broken, it doesn't matter, we can open it later when we go out."
Xiao Long was skeptical, but she knew that it would not be easy to quit temporarily once she stepped in, so she didn't think about going out immediately, but calmed down and continued to support the old man to move forward.
Although the room is not bright, it is by no means dark. There is a light bulb hanging on the wall of the living room, and the dim light illuminates most of the living room.
This is a very ordinary tile-roofed farmhouse. Entering the gate is the living room. There is a dilapidated ink painting hanging on the wall facing the gate. Xiaolong never imagined that such a farmhouse would use calligraphy to decorate the house, so he couldn't help it. Look at the painting.
It was a painting with the finishing touch. In the upper right corner of the picture is a white dragon flying through the clouds, and in the lower left corner is an ancient man holding a brush in his hand, but because of the age, the painting was badly damaged.
There are four doors on each side of the living room, and at the back, there is another empty door leading to the backyard.
The direction where the old man led the cage was the empty door.
Xiao Cage asked, "Where is your child? Didn't you say you have a son? Where is he?"
The old man hung his head and did not answer.
"Hey, what exactly do you want to take?" Xiao Long asked again.
The old man still didn't speak.
The room is getting colder and colder, and it is getting darker and darker as you walk back. Xiaolong's hand on the old man's arm took the opportunity to touch the old man's skin—it was frozen and hard, like a piece of dead meat that had been dried and frozen. Pork is shocking.
Xiaolong was speechless, thinking why he didn't feel this way when he grabbed his arm just now, how long has passed, this old man doesn't feel like a living person anymore.
An extremely bad premonition arose in Xiaolong's heart, she swallowed a mouthful of saliva, just pretending that she didn't know anything, she still followed the old man slowly.
The two of them walked through the empty door slowly, the old man turned on the light bulb on the wall, behind the small door was their kitchen and two other wooden doors, one wooden door opened, the small cage could vaguely see the outline of the small courtyard outside, the other wooden door was It was closed tightly, and a strong stench came out from the door. This smell was very familiar to Xiaolong when she was wandering in the mountains and forests, so she did not retreat, but frowned, and asked the old man in a low voice: "Is this the smell?" Is it your bedroom?"
The old man finally responded this time - he nodded twice.
Xiaolong let go of the old man's hand and walked to the door alone. She held her breath and pushed hard with her arm. She pushed the thin wooden door open, and the light outside the door shone into the hut. On the bed was the long-decomposed corpse of an old woman.
Xiaolong covered his nose and walked into the house.
The old woman was lying on her back on the bed, with her five fingers raised on her right hand and her left hand placed in front of her chest to make a fist. Even though her face had been hollowed out by corpse insects, Xiaolong could still tell that the old woman must have been quite serious before she died. pain.
In the midsummer farm house, a corpse that died for more than a month was stuffed in the room. Its rotting smell and terrifying appearance can be imagined, but Xiaolong did not show panic or panic. Compared with before, she was calmer.
"Dead people also have dignity." Xiao Cage said coldly to the corpse: "You just treat the dead person's body as a hotbed, why do you want to control the dead person's body and hurt innocent people?"
The corpse on the bed didn't come back to life, and the voice that answered her came from behind.
"Because we need more dead people." The old man walked slowly into the house, his white-haired head drooping all the way, and his body stiffened uncommonly when he stood up and down, "You are not human, you have noticed this place early in the morning Something's wrong, I recognized us just now, why did you take the initiative to walk in?"
"Although I sensed something was wrong, I wasn't as smart as you imagined." Xiao Cage said, "If I didn't come in and see for myself, how would I know that you old man has become a walking dead being manipulated, even if I want to save you?" , it’s too late.”
"Hehehe." The old man's body leaned forward unnaturally, but his neck was lifted up strangely, the skin on his face showed a gray and dead color, he was laughing, the corners of his mouth twitched, his chin moved, and he smiled like a failure plastic doll, "Giggle."
Xiao Cage looked serious, "Do you want to eat me?"
"You are a demon, if we eat you, our children will grow more and grow bigger." The old man opened his mouth strangely, and two long stick tentacles with thick fingers protruded from his mouth.
The black tentacles stretched out further, and the old man's mouth was forced to open wider. At the same time, a shiny black beetle-like head gradually protruded from the old man's mouth. The head was the size of an adult's fist. Stretching, more and bigger bodies creaked and squeezed out from the old man's mouth.
There was nowhere to escape in the narrow room, and the only wooden door was blocked by the old man again, Xiaolong took a step back, his eyes turned sideways, thinking about the way to escape.
Just when a huge adult insect half-length got out of the old man's body and stretched out its tentacles towards the small cage, the door behind the old man was kicked open.
"Little cage!" Su Chi stood outside the door, covered his mouth and nose, and yelled angrily, "Come out!"
Xiao Long cried and said, "But he's blocking me!"
"An old man can still block you?" Su Chi stepped into the door, reached out and grabbed the old man's shoulder, and turned him around with all his strength.
This room was originally used as a warehouse, narrow and dark. At first, the old man turned his back to Su Chi to block her view, so when Su Chi turned him around without knowing it, the next second, she Then he came face to face with the huge bug that came out of the old man's cracked mouth.
"...Xiao Long," Su Chi looked at Chongzi face to face across the distance, and finally said with a wink, "...you talk slowly, I'll go first."
As she spoke, she actually lifted her foot and stepped back.
But that worm would never let her go. Seeing that she was going to retreat, the worm's front legs stretched out immediately, and it was about to catch Su Chi's face. , the old man's back knee was kicked hard, and he fell to his knees with a plop.
Xiao Long stepped on the old man's shoulders and jumped in front of Su Chi, took her hand, and said anxiously, "Run!"
Xiaolong pulled Su Chi back to the living room through the empty door, Su Chi pointed to the first room on the right hand side of the gate, and said, "Go out from there!"
Xiao Cage immediately turned to that place, but before she got close to the door, there was already the sound of crawling in the dark door, listening to the movement, it was the sound of thousands of reptiles moving at the same time.
The way forward was blocked, and Xiao Long dragged Su Chi to stand in the hall.
Su Chi asked anxiously, "What should I do?"
Xiaolong pricked up his ears to listen to the movement for a while, then yanked Su Chi past him, and ran to the second door behind him, "There are no bugs there!"
The door was not locked, and Xiaolong grabbed the doorknob and pushed it open. She threw Su Chi into the door, hid in herself, and locked the door casually.
Pa, the incandescent lamp in the room turned on, and Su Chi stood by the door, holding the rope to pull the lamp in his hand, with a dignified expression, "What should we do now?"
Xiao Cage said, "I don't know."
Su Chi asked, "Aren't you a monster? Is there nothing you can do?"
Xiaolong said depressedly: "I'm just a half-demon with chaotic blood. My parents only gave me two abilities. One is to be a vixen to create illusions, and the other is to become a chaotic wolf demon to kill. Both of these are currently unacceptable. OK."
"Why not?" Su Chi asked.
"Outside there are burial insects that have become spirits, commonly known as corpse insects. The insect king parasitizes the body of the dead man. He relies on him to move. The dead man has no consciousness. How can I create an illusion for him? Besides, there are so many low-level insects outside the door. There is no way to control them one by one." Xiao Cage explained: "As for the wolf demon, if you still want to live to see the sun tomorrow, you'd better pray that I don't become a wolf demon."
"Is the old man sure he's dead?" Su Chi asked.
"It looks like he's been dead for a while." Xiaolong sneaked a guilty glance at Su Chi.
Su Chi was really angry when he heard that, "Didn't you pay attention when you were in the store? Why didn't you find anything beforehand?"
"An octogenarian old man, someone died in his family and was haunted by ghosts. It's normal for him to have a dead breath." Xiaolong pouted, "The burial bug is actually a bug. Even if it becomes what it is now, it's still a small trouble. The monster is hidden by the old man's deadly spirit, how can I find it?"
Su Chi glanced sideways at Xiaolong, stopped talking, but turned his head to look at the room in front of him.
Compared with the unreliable Xiaolong, Su Zhi decided to rely on himself.
Xiaolong was worried that Su Chi would be angry, so he carefully changed the subject and said, "How did you get in?"
"The chicken took me into the chicken coop. The chicken coop is connected to the house. I came in directly from the chicken coop." Su Zhi said coldly: "You don't have to think about what to say to me, first think of a way to go out and then talk."
"Oh." Xiaolong had nothing to say, so he closed his mouth obediently.

Compared with this dilapidated farm house alone in the deep mountains, and the hut where the two deceased old people lived, the room Su Chi and the others saw was obviously different.
This is a room that even the furnishings are very inconsistent.
The bed is an old-fashioned rural carved bed with peeling red paint. There is a couch under the bed and a top on the bed. By the looks of it, the bed had apparently been cleaned regularly a few days ago.
On the opposite side of the bed is a whole row of modern-style desk shelves. The bookshelves are full of dusty books, and the pages of each book are interspersed with notes of various colors.There was also an old white computer on the desk. The display screen of the computer had been cracked, and the hard disk of the host computer had also been removed.
There is actually an incense table in the middle of the bed and the desk. There is an incense burner on the incense table. It looks like it has been used for many years, and it is not an ordinary decoration.
In addition, the walls of the room are covered with paintings, and the contents of seven or eight paintings are either immortals or dragons.
Pointing to a dragon model on the desk, Xiao Long muttered, "This man seems to like dragons very much."
"I don't just like dragons." Su Chi came back from the bed, and said with an unhappy expression, "Look at the top of his bed."
Xiaolong jumped to the side of the bed in a few steps, leaned over to look at the top of the bed, and exclaimed in surprise, "Wow!"
The author has something to say: Do you think there are dragons in this world?
Xiao Long was skeptical, but she knew that it would not be easy to quit temporarily once she stepped in, so she didn't think about going out immediately, but calmed down and continued to support the old man to move forward.
