half evil

Chapter 39
Once you smell the stench of rotting corpses, you will never forget it.

Ordinary people can't describe the smell of putrefactive gas produced by the growth of spoilage bacteria in the intestines. At most, they think it's like stinky tofu or snail noodles.

But the real corpse smell is ten or a hundred times stronger than that smell.

It's like the smell of a trash can that has been exposed to the sun for ten days, and after pouring a bucket of swill into it, it starts to stir.

And this kind of smell is pouring out from the seventh room of the inverted room.

Even if the woman behind the little girl has disappeared.

disappeared in an instant.

It's as if it suddenly appeared.

However, the taste was not.

The people blocking the door dispersed one after another.

They looked at each other, at a loss.

The scene of the woman's sudden appearance just now scared them.

Not to mention looking at those empty eyes, as if the soul would be sucked away.

And now?
The turbulent stench made the people present terrified and inexplicable.

Although none of the people present could conclude that it was a corpse smell like Mo Shili, they instinctively guessed it.

Dead body.

Dead and alive.

zombie.

sly.

As soon as many associations appeared, in front of the door of the seventh room of the inverted room, no one dared to be there anymore, and they all turned around and left.

The old woman even scrambled back home, closed the door, and hid on the bed shivering.

And those who are more timid are going out to find the head of the family.

In less than a stick of incense, the whole courtyard knew the rumors about the "strangeness" of the seventh family of the Daozuofang.

An hour later, the whole street knew about it.

There is trepidation.

Believe it or not.

There is sneer.

However, when the little girl went out to buy vegetables with a basket, everyone who saw the little girl avoided her, even those who just laughed out loud.

Even, these people are the fastest to hide.

And after the little girl walked by, these people gathered together to discuss again.

The little girl heard the discussion behind her, but she didn't pay attention.

Carrying the vegetable basket, continue to buy vegetables.

It was at this time that Mo Shili avoided everyone's eyes and entered the seventh room of the inverted room.

Mo Shili, who was covering his mouth and nose, was ready to face the impact of the stench of corpses.

As a result, although there was a slight smell in the room, it was far from the stench as imagined.

Moreover, at a glance, although the whole room is a bit dark, pots, pans, clothes, etc. are placed in different categories, and when you touch it, there is no dust on the ground.

Apart from……

There was a dead body on the bed.

Mo Shili approached carefully.

The corpse's face was pale, it had lost all color, and the back of its head had collapsed, but even so, its face was still beautiful.

Mo Shili was sure that this was the woman he had just glanced at.

The only difference is that the eyes were opened just now, and when people saw it, they felt chills down their backs.

At this moment, his eyes were slightly closed, and his expression was peaceful, as if he was in a deep sleep.

Just a pair of eyes made a world of difference?

Mo Shili examined it carefully.

Soon, he discovered something was wrong.

The corner of the mouth of the woman's face in front of him has a gelatinous texture, and when touched with a finger, it feels sticky.

"glue?"

Mo Shili frowned slightly.

Then, he made more discoveries.

Cowhide belts were tied around the waist, back, and shoulders of the woman's corpse.

There are holes drilled into the finger-wide cowhide straps.

In an instant, Mo Shili turned his head to look at the roof beams.

The dim light blocked Mo Shili's sight, but it made him more sure that there was something tricky on the beams.

Not visible from inside the room.

Not to mention outside the room!

The next moment, Mo Shili circled the pillar like a four-legged snake.

When Mo Shili was bending over and standing on the beam, a block of pulleys fixed to the beam appeared in front of him. Four pulleys made up this block of pulleys, and there was a fishing line on it.

"The fishing line passed through the cowhide straps tied to the corpse, and after passing through the pulley block..."

"It fell into the hands of that little girl!"

"After sharing the weight with the pulley group, even a little girl can easily stand up the corpse of an adult woman. The corners of the mouth fixed by the air-dried glue make her smile become terrifying. When the little girl loosens the fishing line slightly When the time comes, the corpse will suddenly disappear, just like it appeared before suddenly, plus the smell!

Everyone will be preconceived! "

Mo Shili gradually understood what had just happened.

As for why?
Mo Shili looked at the corpse.

In other words, it was the back of the corpse's head.

The collapsed skull is enough to explain everything.

murder!

The woman was murdered!
And the little girl?

To avenge my mother!
Use rumors of 'strange things' to lure out the murderer!

Any assailant, upon hearing that the corpse was alive, couldn't help but return to investigate.

Even if he ran away at that time.

I will definitely not be able to restrain myself from coming back!

Because, panic!
Facing the fear of the unknown!
He was in a state of panic all day long, suspicious, and finally couldn't bear the torture, so he would definitely end it!

And that's what little girls want!

Of course, it is very difficult for a little girl to do this.

But what if someone helped?

For example: The owner of the wonton stand.

Thinking about it now, it was no accident that he saw the paper money.

Instead, let him see it on purpose.

Do not!
It wasn't intended for him to see, but anyone who appeared at the wonton stand at that time would see this scene!
Moreover, no matter whether that person will follow or not, he will still remember this incident.

Afterwards, as long as "strange things" happened in the courtyard, the other party would become the best witness.

Even, it will vigorously promote it!
As for how the 'creepy incident' happened smoothly?

Acting like the old woman next door, even if he didn't appear, it would be the same.

What happens if he doesn't cough in the morning?
While the little girl was arguing with the old woman, the bowl of wontons fell on the old woman.

So what would the old woman do?
Naturally, he blocked the door and cursed.

What happened afterwards, and what happened just now, are basically the same.

"Bring back wontons...

Is this also calculated? ! "

Mo Shili rubbed his eyebrows.

He really didn't expect that a wonton stall owner could have such a layout.

With this kind of scheming, if he had more poisons in his hands, most people would probably die.

If the poison were more special, even some masters would have to capsize in the gutter!

"Terrible world!"

"I must be cautious, calm, and shrink back when things happen!"

Mo Shili told himself again.

So, when the little girl's footsteps sounded outside the door, Mo Shili ran straight up to the beam.

From the beam of the house, he watched the little girl return to the room with a basket of vegetables.

After putting away the vegetable basket, the little girl hugged her knees with her hands and sat next to the woman's body.

A few seconds later, there was a low sobbing sound.

Tired of crying, he curled up in his mother's arms.

After a while, the little girl's breathing became longer.

For others, it's a horrifying corpse.

But for the little girl, it's her mother.

Is her only support.

The sun slanted westward.

The moon rises in the east.

The courtyard, which had been noisy all day, fell silent.

Even, quieter than ever.

The 'strange thing' has already spread, and the people in the courtyard went to bed early and dared not go out at all.

If it wasn't for his lack of ability, he would have moved out by this time.

And at this moment-

Boo, boo.

A slight movement sounded.

Mo Shili could clearly see that a thin dagger protruded from the door along the crack of the door, and was gently flipping the latch.
