Chapter 50: horror story

Lu Qingjiu was ill for about two or three days before he fully recovered. After he recovered, he was relieved, knowing that he would not be eaten by the white moon fox as a sick animal.
The snow fell and heavier in the past few days, and almost never stopped. Soon Lu Qingjiu learned from Yin Xun that the road to the town was blocked by heavy snow. When the traffic between the two places is cut off, Shuifu Village has almost become a small village isolated from the rest of the world. It can only be contacted with other places after the snow melts in the next spring.
Lu Qingjiu's memory of winter was very weak when he was a child. He only vaguely remembered that the winter in Shuifu Village was extremely difficult compared to other seasons. The food became precious and scarce, and it was difficult to eat fresh vegetables.
Now, Lu Qingjiu has a clear understanding of this hardship. After about five or six days of snowfall, the internet and electricity at home were cut off. Lu Qingjiu was still watching TV at home that day, but the house suddenly fell into darkness. Yin Xun was very calm. Obviously, he had expected what would happen here: "The power went out."
Lu Qingjiu said, "It will be broken? Didn't you say that it will be broken in December?"
"This year's snow is big." Yin Xun said, "It is estimated that the power grid was broken by the snow, and there is no way to repair it. Take out the candles, and make do with..."
Yin Xun told Lu Qingjiu before that in the mid-winter season, the village was basically out of power and network, but the situation now is worse than Yin Xun said, because this is only the first snow, and electricity and internet are both Gone. Luckily, Lu Qingjiu was prepared early. He took out a few small battery-powered electric lights and placed them in the living room to illuminate. Although it was daytime, because it had been snowing, the outside of the house was brighter than the inside.
Lu Qingjiu cooked the charcoal bowl red, and sat on the edge of the kang, discussing what to eat for lunch with Yin Xun. Bai Yuehu was still sitting on his rocking chair, squinting to rest. Winter is always a season when people don’t want to move. There is not much farm work and no need to go out. It is enough to stay at home and think about what to eat.
"Let's eat bacon." Yin Xun began to think about his menu, "I haven't tasted it yet."
Lu Qingjiu nodded: "Well, let's get some pepper fried bacon, where's Yuehu?"
Bai Yuehu said: "Whatever." He eats everything.
Lu Qingjiu said: "You guys have fun first, I will cook."
Yin Xun said, "I'll be with you, aren't you afraid of the cold? I'm not afraid."
Lu Qingjiu did not refuse, and the two went to the kitchen together. Since it snowed, Lu Qingjiu has basically only cooked food. The rest of the family’s work is made by Yin Xun and Bai Yuehu. Bai Yuehu is responsible for feeding the chickens and the three animals in the family. Yin Xun is responsible for feeding Lu Qingjiu hit his hands, and Yin Xun did all the steps that need to be dipped in cold water when cooking. Lu Qingjiu basically can't touch cold water.
If Lu Qingjiu felt that he was dipped in ice water before, it didn't matter, but the problem was that after experiencing the illness, Lu Qingjiu finally realized clearly that if he gets sick again, Baiyue Fox will not be soft. So afraid of the cold, he could only try to avoid contact with cold things to prevent himself from getting sick, lest the illness didn't cost his life, but the white moon fox didn't even eat anything left by the bones of his belt.
The bacon is sliced ​​into thin slices, put in a pot and stir-fried with chili. The heat makes the bacon roll up, and the fat is transparent. This kind of meat is not greasy at all, but it is springy and waxy, and very chewy. strength. The peppers were bought back before, frozen in the freezer, and defrosted when they were to be eaten. Although they were not fresh when they were bought, they were sufficient in winter when they lacked supplies.
Lu Qingjiu also asked Yin Xun to go to the cellar to bring the stored cabbage, and make a big pot of pork and cabbage stewed vermicelli. Before the dishes were out of the pot, the aroma of meat filled the room. Yin Xun stood beside him and his eyes It's going to fall into the pot, the look that can't wait is really funny. Lu Qingjiu prepared the rice and brought it to the room where the kang was burning. In order to save some charcoal, their family stayed in a room with a Kang, and sat on the Kang to eat and chat.
The bacon is very fragrant. The pork stewed vermicelli is also very suitable for winter. People's appetite is always better in winter. Even Lu Qingjiu eats a lot of rice.
Yin Xun sucked the noodles and gulped over the white rice, his eyes narrowed with happiness. Bai Yuehu sat next to him, crunching the pork. Lu Qingjiu was used to hearing this sound before, but now he has a new understanding of this sound... He feels that his bones are not as hard as pig bones. ...
After eating, Yin Xun dared not squeeze a bed with Bai Yuehu at the beautiful lunch break, so he obediently went to the next room. Bai Yuehu shook out his beautiful nine tails, and naturally wrapped Lu Qingjiu lying on the bed.
The tail was warm and soft, and Lu Qingjiu was wrapped in it very comfortably. He hugged one, rubbed his cheek, and soon fell asleep in this pleasant temperature. He slept for most of the day, usually when he woke up , It was almost four or five o'clock in the afternoon.
After waking up, simply wash and wake up, and it's time for dinner again.
This life of eating, sleeping, and eating is actually not bad, after all, every winter is one or two months, and when spring comes the next year, it will be very busy again. Of course, the fly in the ointment is that there is no entertainment life at home because of the power outage, the TV cannot be watched, the computer cannot be played, and even the mobile phone is about to be turned off, basically returning to the original life without electricity and internet.
So after dinner, Yin Xun, who was very boring, offered to have some fun.
Lu Qingjiu ate the fried fragrant sunflower seeds, and said, "What fun?"
Yin Xun said: "Let's tell a ghost story in a competition, and see whose ghost story is the scariest!"
Lu Qingjiu heard the words of eating melon seeds and said, "Are you mountain still telling ghost stories?"
Yin Xun said, "Will you come? Will you come?"
Lu Qingjiu thought for a while, and thought it was okay, so he asked Bai Yuehu who was sitting next to him: "Yuehu, do you want to come together?"
Originally, Lu Qingjiu thought that Bai Yuehu would not be interested in this kind of activity. Who knew he nodded in agreement, and then got up from the chair and sat beside them.
"Then you go first." Yin Xun said to Lu Qingjiu.
Lu Qingjiu said: "Okay, let me first." He told a story he met in the company.
That is, when Lu Qingjiu was at work in the company, he often worked overtime until 11 or 12 in the evening, and then every time he went to the toilet, he found that a toilet door was locked. The previous few times he had not paid attention to it until he was there one day. When I went to the toilet next to the locked toilet door, my phone accidentally dropped to the ground. When Lu Qingjiu lowered his head to pick up the phone, he found that in the locked toilet next to him, he actually had a pair of feet standing in his direction. , If it’s an ordinary foot, it’s fine, but the problem is that those feet are wearing red high heels, the skin of the feet is extremely pale, and even cyan blood vessels can be seen.
Lu Qingjiu entered the men's room. How could there be a pair of women's feet in the men's room? At that time, Lu Qingjiu felt something was wrong. He was about to get up and leave, but he heard the sound of da da da da, and then from the gap in the ground he saw the pair of high heels moving from the toilet on the right to in front of him.
"Boom boom boom." Someone knocked on his toilet door.
Lu Qingjiu froze at the time. Although he occasionally encountered some strange things, such as talking creatures such as old trees, it was the first time he encountered such dirty things. He didn't dare to speak out, pretending to hear nothing, he sat on the toilet and held his breath.
There was another knock on the door, Lu Qingjiu still didn't dare to move, and then he heard the sound of da da da high heels walking away. When Lu Qingjiu heard the footsteps, he thought the thing had left. He was about to open the door, but he thought of something. He stopped opening the door and glanced into the gap, which almost didn't stop his heart. , He saw a pair of inverted eyes, the thing propped his head with his hands, and stared at Lu Sake upside down. Her body was stretched long. Although her head was still in front of Lu Sake, she was dressed in red and tall. Heel’s feet have reached the door of the toilet... No wonder he heard the sound of high heels moving away...
"And then?" Yin Xun became nervous when he heard it.
Lu Qingjiu said, "Then I stared at her with big eyes and small eyes in the toilet, staring at her all night, and she didn't disappear until dawn."
Yin Xun's eyes rounded after listening, "She didn't do anything to you?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "That's not true."
Yin Xun sighed, "Then it's my turn now."
Said that when he started to be a mountain god, he met a man who brought a corpse to the mountain to throw it away. The female corpse was chopped up by the man in a mess. The death was very miserable. The man was also very flustered. The female body was buried. These were all seen by Yin Xun, but he was too young at the time. After telling his grandparents about the incident, the fearful old man nervously prevented him from wanting to call the police and told him not to tell the matter. Get out.
Yin Xun obeyed his grandparents' words, but he was still using his mountain god's ability to secretly observe.
After the man buried the corpse, he disappeared for a while, but he appeared on the top of the mountain again. He took a shovel and looked around for the burial place. The man dug from the east and west, finally let him find the burial place. When he dug out the corpse again, the corpse was highly decomposed and looked very disgusting and hideous. But the man ignored this, took something out of his arms, stuck it on the forehead of the female body, and then buried the female body again.
Yin Xun was very curious at the time, but because he was trapped on the mountain, he couldn't follow the man either. He didn't know what happened to the man and made the man do such a move.
However, since this time, men have come to the mountain more and more frequently, and even in the middle of the night they will climb up the mountain to dig the corpse.
At first Yin Xun wondered why the man did this, but gradually, he found something strange in the man.
The man's neck became longer and longer, and at first it barely seemed to be straight, but then it can no longer be explained by straightening. His neck became thinner, longer, and softer, like a cold snake. Because of this change, the man did not dare to return to his residence, he could only be forced to choose to live on the mountain, and this time, Yin Xun finally knew what had happened to the man.
It was night, and Yin Xun could see everything on the mountain, and saw the man lying in a simple tent. He fell asleep, his neck wrapped in a weird circle. After the night fell, a violent wind blew in the tent. Yin Xun saw a woman appearing on the man's body. Her body was highly decomposed. It was clearly the female corpse buried by the man on the top of the mountain. The woman lay on the man’s chest, stretched out her hand, grabbed the man’s head, and then began to pull hard, and the man’s neck became longer and longer...
When Yin Xun said this, he heard Bai Yuehu's voice from the side: "Is it like this?"
Yin Xun turned his head and saw that the white moon fox's neck had become extremely long, which was clearly the scary appearance of the man in his memory.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
Lu Qingjiu couldn't help laughing, and said, "Yuehu, don't scare him."
The white moon fox's neck returned to its original shape. He blinked and looked very innocent: "I'm just kidding, he is a mountain god, how courageous he is."
Yin Xun said angrily: "Who has stipulated that the mountain must be courageous! I am me, a different firework!"
Lu Qingjiu: "..." Yes, you are a mountain with water in your head.
Yin Xun said: "Lu Qingjiu, do you care about your vixen, is it so scary? That man is the shadow of my childhood!"
Lu Qingjiu said, "It's alright, what's the end?"
Yin Xun said, "Finally? In the end, the man's head was pulled off. I called the police." Although this matter was still a pending case, the police successfully found the female body and asked her family to claim it. It has become a good deed, but the process is really scary.
After Yin Xun and Lu Qingjiu told their stories, they both turned their attention to Baiyue Fox. It seemed that Baiyue Fox had the richest experience among them. The horror stories they told must be particularly scary. However, the stories of Lu Qingjiu and Yin Xun are somewhat similar. One stretches his body and the other stretches his boyfriend's neck. It seems that female ghosts like long and thin things...
Bai Yuehu said: "A horror story? I don't have a horror story."
"Why not?" Lu Qingjiu said, "Isn't there anything particularly scary?"
The white moon fox thought for a moment: "It's really scary...does it matter if I don't have enough food?"
Lu Qingjiu said: "..."
Bai Yuehu said: "If you don't count it, then there is nothing."
Lu Qingjiu said, "Do you talk about it?"
Bai Yuehu thought for a while: "Why don't I take you to see it?"
"Look?" Yin Xun was dumbfounded, "Can you still observe it live?"
Baiyuehu said: "Naturally, there is nothing to do anyway."
Lu Qingjiu and Yin Xun looked at each other, and finally agreed to Baiyuehu's proposal, agreeing to go with him to see the scariest thing in his heart. After receiving affirmative answers from Lu Qingjiu and Yin Xun, a cloud of black mist rose up around Bai Yuehu, enveloping Lu Qingjiu and Yin Xun.
When the black fog dissipated, Lu Qingjiu had already reached a completely unfamiliar place. This place was also at night, but it should not be Shuifu Village, because there was neither snow nor traces of snow, and there was a round of whiteness in the sky. In the bright moon, the air was filled with a scent that could not be described in words, like a combination of fishy and rotten meat.
Lu Qingjiu stood in front of a huge pit, which was very deep and very wide. Looking down, Lu Qingjiu saw that there was a layer of black silt on the ground of this huge pit. This sludge was probably rotten. origin of. On the silt, Lu Qingjiu also saw a lot of bones. These bones looked strange. They were said to look like fish, but they were longer than fish. They were scattered on the silt.
"Where is this?" Yin Xun was a little scared, he said, "What's in the pit?"
Bai Yuehu said: "Keep watching."
As soon as the White Moon Fox's words fell, the mud in the big pit made a gurgling sound, like boiling water. Lu Qingjiu looked into the pit and saw a huge head popping out of the mud. The head looked a bit like a dragon at first glance, but the mud attached to it blurred its appearance, but the blood bowl on the head was in the big mouth. Long fangs, but telling others that it is not something to mess with.
A monster covered in mud crawled out from the bottom of the pit. Lu Qingjiu noticed that the monster had no eyes, or that the eyes had been blinded, only two black holes were left.
It seemed to feel the presence of Baiyue Fox and Lu Qingjiu, and flicked its tail in this direction. The heavy tail fell, and the rocks around the tremor fell, but the rocks in the pit were as steady as Mount Tai, motionless. If Lu Qingjiu did not operate, this deep pit would be a cage for this monster.
When the monster's body was completely exposed from the ground, Lu Qingjiu could barely guess its identity. It was slender and entangled in a deep pit. It was indeed the most standard dragon in ancient legends. But to say that it is a dragon, it is too embarrassed, it does not have the proud style of a dragon at all. Lu Qingjiu even saw many blood-red wounds on its body. The blood and silt from those wounds were mixed together, which made the teeth a little bit sour.
"Is this a dragon?" Lu Qingjiu asked.
Bai Yuehu said: "Dragon?" He glanced at the monster, "No way? He doesn't deserve to be a dragon anymore."
Lu Qingjiu said, "Did he do something wrong before being locked up here?"
Bai Yuehu nodded.
Lu Qingjiu couldn't imagine what the dragon had done to be locked in such a place. For him as an ordinary human being, the dragon is the sacred representative, he is the totem of the Chinese nation, and also a kind of belief, a proud and beautiful creature. Although the monster in front of him looks embarrassed, Lu Qingjiu can still feel the power and beauty of the top predator that it once possessed from the subtle details.
"What did he do wrong?" Yin Xun asked weakly next to him, "and the dragon...should not have been extinct long ago?"
Bai Yuehu said: "He has done something irreversible." He said lightly, "Extinction? Who told you that the dragon was extinct?"
Yin Xundao: "Inherited memory."
Bai Yuehu said: "Then you can update your memory."
Yin Xun looked helpless.
This is what Bai Yuehu feels most terrifying. Unlike Lu Qingjiu Yin Xun, his fear is due to the embarrassing appearance of his family.
The monster in the mud pit opened its mouth, wanting to roar, but what it uttered was a hoarse roar. Lu Qingjiu realized that the dragon in the mud pit also seemed to have his vocal cords cut off after hearing this voice.
What kind of error did it make to suffer such torture? Seeing such a scene, Lu Qingjiu felt a little cold on his body.
"He can't die, nor can he live." Baiyuehu said, "There is no food, so hungry, he can only eat his own body." He turned his head to look at Lu Sake and Yin Xun, and said, "For me, this It is the most terrifying thing."
As if responding to his words, the dragon that had turned into a monster in the pit once again uttered a hoarse and dry howl, which sounded like weeping blood, which made people horrified.
"Let's go." Yin Xun looked at this scene and felt really uncomfortable. In his inherited memory, Long shouldn't be the embarrassed look in front of him. He looked at the monster, and pity and sigh rose in his heart. "I don’t want to watch it anymore."
Bai Yuehu said: "Then let's go back."
So there was another black mist around the three of them, and after the black mist dissipated, they returned to the warm room. A silent atmosphere spread between the three of them. Bai Yuehu looked at Lu Qingjiu with an unclear expression in his black eyes. Just when Lu Qingjiu thought he was going to say something profound, he heard Bai Yuehu say: "Then today I won the horror story, right?"
Lu Qingjiu: "..."
Yin Xun: "..."
Bai Yuehu said, "What are you doing looking at me like this?"
Yin Xun trembled: "When... of course you won." Compared with the immersive horror of the White Moon Fox, their story is not at the same level.
Bai Yuehu said, "Oh, is there any reward?" He said the reward, but his eyes fell on Lu Qingjiu, his eyes full of expectation.
Lu Qingjiu: "..." If he used to think that Bai Yuehu's expression was very cute, but after a bite, he finally realized soberly that Bai Yuehu's eyes seemed to be looking at a delicacy. Pork knuckle. At this time, he was politely asking the pig knuckle if he could take another bite.
Lu Qingjiu, a delicious pork knuckle, ruthlessly rejected Bai Yuehu's idea: "No."
Bai Yuehu sighed, extremely disappointed.
Yin Xun was still immersed in the picture just now and couldn't extricate himself. He didn't notice the undercurrent between Lu Qingjiu and Bai Yuehu. He said, "It's too late. I'll go back first. Go to bed earlier."
Lu Qingjiu said, "Are you okay?"
Yin Xun said, "It's okay." He scratched his head, "I just think that dragon is a bit pitiful."
Lu Qingjiu said: "Yes, but this is their Dragon Clan's business..." They are just outsiders, so it's not easy to be beaked.
Baiyue Fox was indifferent to the miserable experience of the same kind, and didn't even bother to say a word of comfort.
Yin Xun left in despair. Lu Qingjiu became a little worried when he looked at him. He didn't know why Yin Xun cared about the dragon so much, but after seeing the picture, his heart was indeed moved.
"Then...what the did that dragon make?" After Yin Xun left, Lu Qingjiu asked Bai Yuehu this question again.
Bai Yuehu looked at Lu Sake and blinked, "Do you really want to know?"
Lu Qingjiu: "Yeah."
Bai Yuehu said: "I will tell you later."
Lu Qingjiu: "..." Why does he think Bai Yuehu's expression looks a bit... weird?
