Yellow River Craftsman

Chapter 188 Strange Tales Under the Lamp: Huang Pizi ([-])

Hey!Hey!
With the concerted efforts of all the servants, the rivets of the coffin lid were pried up.

"Master, what if... what if the third young master really turns into a zombie?" The servant who took the lead looked at Mr. Zhao worriedly, sweating profusely on his face, and seemed very nervous.

Mrs. Zhao said: "Old man, why don't you open the coffin, if your son really emerges as a zombie, he... what if he bites someone?"

Mr. Zhao's eyes were red, and he only said one word coldly: "Open!"

The two servants inserted the shovels into the gap of the coffin lid and pushed upwards at the same time.The other two servants stood on both sides of the coffin, one on the left and the other on the right, holding the shovel tightly, their faces covered with cold sweat.If a zombie really crawled out of the coffin, they would blow the zombie's head right away, and at that time they would not care about Zhao Sanlang's identity as the third young master.

As the coffin lid was pried open, the hearts of everyone present were twisted.

Nearly a hundred pairs of eyes shot at the black coffin, and the air seemed to freeze at this moment.

Boom!

The coffin lid rolled over on the ground, kicking up a speck of loess.

Everyone was silent for a while, not daring to move forward rashly.

A stench rose into the sky, and people who were closer to the coffin covered their noses with their hands.

Half a minute passed, 1 minute passed, and there was no reaction in the coffin.

Mr. Zhao took two steps forward and slowly approached the coffin.

Those servants also followed Mr. Zhao and slowly gathered around.

Yeah!

The moment they saw the inside of the coffin, everyone exclaimed in unison!
Zhao Sanlang did not become a zombie, but his body disappeared, and there was no Zhao Sanlang's body in the coffin.What is surprising is that there is a yellow leather child in the center of the coffin.The yellow leather was still alive, and a pair of black eyes stared coldly at Mr. Zhao, presumably it was the yellow leather that made the strange noise in the coffin just now.

"Oh my god! It's it again!" Mrs. Zhao recognized at a glance that the yellow leather child in the coffin was the one that mysteriously appeared on the top of the coffin lid every midnight, with that venomous gaze like a knife, It seemed as if it had penetrated into Mrs. Zhao's heart all at once.Mrs. Zhao rolled her eyes and passed out on the spot.

"Madam! Madam!" The maids hurriedly helped Madam Zhao up, some were pinching her, some were feeding her water, making a fuss.

On the hillside, the wind was blowing, blowing paper money all over the sky, making a rattling sound.

The cold wind whipped everyone's body like a whip, sending chills down their backs.

Such a weird thing caused everyone present to explode, and no one could explain what was going on.

Where did Zhao Sanlang's body go?

Why did a yellow leather child emerge from the coffin that originally contained Zhao Sanlang's body?

That coffin has never been opened since Zhao Sanlang's body was buried, even the rivets on it are new.People racked their brains and couldn't understand why Zhao Sanlang's body disappeared in the closed coffin?How did that yellow leather child get into the coffin?

Could it be... Could it be that Zhao Sanlang's body turned into that yellow-skinned child?
This thing is simply unbelievable and extremely confusing.

Mr. Zhao's face was livid, he bit his lip and kept silent, his body trembling slightly in the dark wind.

"Sanlang!" Mr. Zhao suddenly looked up to the sky and cried out in grief, a stream of blood spurted out from his mouth and splashed on the black coffin, like blood-colored flowers growing on the coffin.Mr. Zhao's face was pale, and he staggered two steps forward. He didn't hold the edge of the coffin with both hands, turned over and fell into the coffin.

When the servants hurriedly dragged Mr. Zhao out of the coffin, Mr. Zhao's face turned black and he had already stopped breathing.No one expected that the coffin that originally contained Zhao Sanlang's body would eventually become the resting place of Mr. Zhao.

What was even more astonishing was that the yellow leather child in the coffin disappeared again. Like a ghost, it suddenly appeared and then disappeared.

It was originally the funeral of Zhao Sanlang alone, but now it is the funeral of Mr. Zhao and Mr. Zhao Sanlang. After finally waking up from a coma, Mrs. Zhao fainted again when she heard the news of Mr. Zhao's death. I can't afford to be sick.

Every night since then, Mrs. Zhao will wake up in the middle of the night, and every time she wakes up, she will see a pair of spiteful eyes looking at her in the dark night.The yellow-skinned child followed her everywhere like a demon, staring at Mrs. Zhao all the time.Within ten and a half months, Mrs. Zhao had been tortured to the point where she was as thin as a stick, her face was pale and bloodless, like a skeleton crawling out of a grave.She often has hallucinations, that yellow leather dog is everywhere, sometimes it will appear on her bedside, sometimes it will appear on the top of the beam, sometimes it will lie on the table, and even break into her dream It made her very painful, and it didn't take long before she became dazed, and finally went crazy.

Before she died, Mrs. Zhao was still muttering: "Get rid of it! Get rid of that yellow man!"

The Zhao family had fewer people who came out to take care of things, and the internal management became increasingly chaotic, and soon fell apart and went to perish.

After that, the Zhao family gradually declined. By the time of liberation, the descendants of the Zhao family had been reduced to doing long-term labor for the landlords for a living, and their lives were very miserable.

"My story is over!" Zhao Lianqiao poured a glass of wine on his own, and drank it all in one gulp.

"Whether this story is true or not, it sounds like Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio!" Han Xu exclaimed as he spoke.

Lin Wei said: "Of course it's fake, and I don't know who made it up. It has the potential to write supernatural and fantasy novels!"

"This is not made up!" Zhao Lianqiao said firmly: "What I said is 100% true!"

"Are you so sure?" Lin Wei was skeptical.

"Of course! Because my ancestors are the Zhao family, and I am a descendant of the Zhao family. I also found this story from the Zhao family tree!" Zhao Lianqiao raised his voice.

"So that's it!" I nodded thoughtfully, "Well, even if the story is true, but it has been so many years, why are you still worried about going into the mountains? What's so weird about the mountains?"

Zhao Lianqiao said: "To be honest, something happened in the mountains recently. Two groups of people disappeared in the depths of Huangpiziling. The first group was a local hunter and a dog he brought with him. The second group was A young couple who came from the city and never came out after entering the mountain!"

"Will they get lost? The terrain here is very complicated, like a natural maze, and people who are not familiar with it are very likely to get lost!" Lao Yang said.

"Lost?" Zhao Lianqiao shook his head: "It's possible for the young couple to get lost, but that local hunter is very familiar with Huangpiziling, so he shouldn't be lost! Before, I was worried that it was Huangpizi who caused them to lose their way. Their souls stayed in Huangpiziling. Now hearing what you said, I have a bad feeling, will they become zombies?"

Li Tienan and Lao Yang looked at each other. This possibility is very high. It is very likely that they have already been refined into zombies by the mortician! "

"Old woman!" Zhao Lianqiao called his wife to the front: "Go back to the house and help me clean up, and take out that old shotgun and polish it!"

Mrs. Zhao was slightly taken aback: "What are you going to do?"

Zhao Lianqiao peeled the peanuts without raising his head and said, "Tomorrow I will take Captain Yang and the others into the mountains!"

"You want to enter the mountain?!" Mrs. Zhao's eyes bulged, her mouth opened wide, with an expression of disbelief: "Are you crazy? Do you want to die? All the people who went in the first few days disappeared. Could it be that you Want to disappear?"

"Fart!" Zhao Lianqiao slapped the table violently, breathing alcohol: "Go, go, you damn old woman, can you talk? Can you talk? I went into the mountain with Captain Yang and the others. You're cursing us missing before we leave? Believe it or not, I'll smack you! Hurry up and apologize to Captain Yang and the others!"

Mrs. Zhao blushed, realizing that she had said something wrong, and kept apologizing to us.

"Don't mind! Don't mind!" Lao Yang waved his hand and said to Zhao Lianqiao: "Forget it, Lao Zhao, your wife doesn't mean that, she just cares about you, and is afraid that you will have an accident!"

"Yes!" Mrs. Zhao said in a low voice: "The two sons are not around all the year round, and you and I are the only two left in this family. If you have a mysterious problem, how can you tell me to live alone?"

Zhao Lianqiao sighed, and shook his wife's rough hands: "Don't worry, I will definitely come back alive, won't I be with Team Yang and the others? They will cover me, right?"

"Don't worry, as our guide, we will do our best to protect you!" Lao Yang patted Zhao Lianqiao's shoulder and said sincerely.

"Here, Captain Yang promised in person, do you have any objections? Go and pack up, by the way, make us some more cakes, and bring some dry food on the way!" Zhao Lianqiao said.

Nothing to say all night, everyone went to bed early to rest.

Early the next morning, before the rooster crowed, Li Tienan woke everyone up from their sleep.

"Time is running out, you guys are still sleeping late, if you catch the corpse keeper a minute later, maybe one more person will become a zombie. Is your serious crime team so indifferent to human life?" Li Tienan's voice was clear and full of energy.

"Fuck! What time is it!" Li Yuwen and Fang Weiran got up sleepily, full of complaints.

"Is she in menopause?" Li Yuwen asked.

Fang Weiran nodded: "I heard that she is not married yet, she is so angry, she must have no place to vent her anger, hold back!"

Lao Yang was very indifferent: "Don't complain, in fact, what Captain Li said is quite reasonable!"

"That's right! If you two don't say a few words, if she overhears you, you'll have to smash your teeth! As the captain of the local criminal investigation, she is more eager to solve the case than us!" said the old bird.
