The Secret Art of Refining the Dead: The Walking Corpse File

Chapter 336 Shadow
The moment the door bolt was pulled out, the wind seemed to be quite strong outside. Before I could pull the door, the cold wind blew the door halfway open. In the dark, the creaking sound of the wooden door being blown open was very clear.I was taken aback, and said to run quickly, that natural daze was very vigilant, and this movement must have woken him up.

It was very dark at the moment, and I couldn't see what was going on outside, so I immediately squatted down to touch the oil lamp that had just been placed on the ground, and lit the lamp while running outside.The wind outside is very strong, and the cold wind is blowing.This oil lamp is not windproof, it was blown out as soon as I lit it, it is not as reliable as the windproof lighter I bought.

Seeing this situation, I put the oil lamp aside, directly lit it with a lighter, and returned by the same way.

The attic where I am now is relatively large, so it protrudes a lot. From here, I can see a light in the darkness in the distance. It should be the lamp lit by Zhou Xuanye and the others.

Other than that, there were no other lights around.

I looked at my watch, and it was 09:30 in the evening, which was too early for those of us night owls in the city, but the people in this little Fusang seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.

I know something is wrong with this situation, but no one can tell me why, for now, it is better to go back to Zhou Xuanye's attic first, there are more people and strength, and it is always safer for everyone to be together.

I trotted forward, and looked back after about ten meters or so. Naturally, he didn't catch up, probably because he was too sound asleep, so I didn't wake him up just now, which made me breathe a sigh of relief.Then, I headed for the light in the darkness.

About a hundred meters or so, I arrived in front of a small building, held a lighter and looked at the environment of the small building, and I found that this was not the small building where Zhou Xuanye and others rested.But at this moment, the light was coming from the second floor inside.

The windows of the small building are all tightly blocked, only one window is open, orange light shines through the window, and a figure can be vaguely seen, it seems to be a woman.

At this time, there was a humming sound from the building, and I found that this sound was very similar to the sound I heard before.Could it be that this woman was crying instead of the wind?

why is she crying

This year's experience tells me that there is a price to be paid for being nosy. I heard her whine and cry for a while, then suppressed my curiosity, turned around and continued walking.But at this time, there was no light in front of me, I was a little frustrated, and thought, could it be that Zhou Xuanye and the others had already fallen asleep?Could it be that I am self-indulgent?Impossible, I am a living person, suddenly there is no movement, with the personalities of Zhou Xuanye and Tan Ren, it is impossible to ignore it.

Because it was too dark, and the buildings here were all similar in appearance, so I walked forward for a while, and I really felt like I was going around in circles.After walking another 30 meters, the burst of crying had stopped, probably enough crying, but the small building in my memory still did not appear.

I stayed with Tianran before, but I didn’t actually go very far. Now that I’ve been walking for so long, why haven’t I reached the place yet?

Just when I was a little anxious, out of the corner of my eye, I suddenly caught a glimpse of someone standing behind the pillar on the left.

The man stood there motionless, hiding most of his body, looking sneaky.

My heart skipped a beat, I suddenly raised the lighter, and shouted, "Who is it!"

The person behind the pillar didn't answer, but turned around and ran into the attic behind.The door to the attic was half open, and after the man broke in, there was a strange creaking sound from the attic.

I raised my foot to chase, but I stopped after one step.

What are you chasing after?Hiding behind a pillar in the middle of the night is definitely not a good person, and this is Little Fusang, judging from his natural dull performance, Little Fusang should be quite skilled, am I looking for death if I chase after him?

This attic is dark, if I want to run in and be blocked by people, wouldn't it make me feel uncomfortable every day, and the earth will not work?

These thoughts flashed through my mind, and I immediately stopped chasing them.No matter who it is, everything will be discussed at dawn tomorrow. It is definitely not a good thing to run around alone in the middle of the night.

So I cleared my throat, and cursed at the attic: "It's not a good man to hide his head and show his tail, sir, I'm busy with things tonight, so I won't waste time with you." After I finished speaking, I continued to walk forward. Looking back a few times, the door of the attic was still half open, and the people inside seemed to be quiet, it was dark, and even a lamp was not lit.

This extreme darkness made me feel that something was wrong, but I couldn't find the cause of the problem.

Soon, I found the place where we came up during the day, because I saw the arc-shaped platform and hanging ladder.Looking to the left along the platform, it is the attic where we eat during the day.I breathed a sigh of relief, quickly opened the door, and ran to the second floor.

The second floor was also completely dark and extremely quiet.

My intuition tells me that something is wrong, even if they don't come out to find me, they should leave a light behind.

"Boss? Brother Zhou?" I held up the windproof lighter and called twice, but no one answered me.With this faint firelight, I found that the doors of the rooms where I slept were all closed.At the same time, I smelled a particularly pleasant smell, like some kind of incense, with a faint medicinal smell.

Zhou Xuanye has the habit of using incense on weekdays, but most of them use water to aloe incense, and the taste is relatively weak.But the medicinal incense in this room is very strong. In fact, it smells pretty good, but I swear, when we came in during the day, there was absolutely no such smell.

This strong aroma reminded me of my previous experience in Thunder Valley, so I couldn't care less about it now, and immediately backed away from the door of the bedroom closest to me.

The moment the door was opened, a more intense fragrance rushed over.

Accompanied by this aroma, I felt my back start to itch again, and while scratching, I raised the lighter and walked towards the bed.After walking in, I realized that this was Fatty Ma's room. He was lying on the bed, stretched out, sleeping soundly, drooling.

Immediately, I felt angry and as if, oh oh oh, I was so focused on fearing that you would come out to find me, you guys are doing well, sleeping like pigs.I immediately reached out to wake up Fatty Ma, but at this moment, with the light of the lighter, I saw two shadows on the wall beside the bed.

One is my shadow, with arms raised, and another, on my right, with a black head and a long thing behind it.

WTF!

I blinked, feeling as if my throat was being choked.

Staring at the shadow standing side by side with me on the wall, I was dazed at first, my hairs stood on end, and then I came up with an idea: swallow a snake!

The image shown by this shadow is probably a round human head with a long tail dragging behind it.Probably because I heard Tianrandai mentioned the beauty snake before, so my first reaction at this moment was that thing.

Didn't it say it lives in the lake?Why... why did you run into the room?
I took a deep breath, turned around abruptly, and at the same time picked up a large bell-shaped ornament next to the bed and prepared it as a weapon.But who knew that when I turned around, there was nothing behind me, and there was no trace of the beautiful snake.

Logically speaking, that thing is quite big, even if it hides, it is impossible to hide so fast, let alone without a trace.

Could it be that my eyes are blurred?
I turned my head and looked back, and suddenly my scalp exploded, because the shadow on the wall was still there, and it was still moving, constantly approaching my shadow.Fuck, what the hell is that!I was so scared that I raised the lighter and looked around. The shadow on the wall was clearly approaching me, but I couldn't even see a ghost around me.

"Fatty, fat man, wake up!" In a hurry, I immediately yelled at Fatty Ma, who was drooling from sleep, but the bastard was in a deep sleep, and I didn't wake up after calling twice.And at this moment, the shadow on the wall has already merged with my shadow.

In this case, it obviously means that the thing has come to me, but what is so frustrating is that I can't see it at all.

In desperation, I immediately ran out the door and ran into the hall. In just a few minutes, my back was covered with cold sweat.I looked back at the place where Fatty Ma was sleeping, but unfortunately there was nothing.

No, it's too dark in the room, I have to light a lamp.

Otherwise, in a blind state, it is too passive.

I remember when I was eating, I saw a lamp not far from the table, so I ran towards the place where I ate not long ago, making a lot of noise while running, trying to shout Zhou Xuanye and the others.

But no matter what I called, those people didn't move.

I realized that they were probably not asleep but passed out.

Maybe the strong fragrance in this room is some kind of drug?But why am I fine?
At this moment, I didn't care about thinking too much, I quickly touched a few oil lamps, and immediately lit them all.Suddenly, the entire attic was lit up, and the light penetrated into the room where Fatty Ma slept. I saw that he was still sleeping soundly, but my forehead was covered in cold sweat.

That thing must still be in the room, and I have to find a way to wake them up. This is, I saw a kettle on the table, and when I lifted the lid, there was still half a jug of water in it.Immediately, I rushed into other people's rooms with this kettle.They were all in the same situation as Fatty Ma, and they were sound asleep. I poured water on their faces, and the water probably choked into their noses, and I woke everyone up.
