Chapter 59 Rotten Corpse
Chapter 59: Rotting Corpse

cold.

Cold.

Li Mu could clearly feel an extremely terrifying and malicious gaze staring at his back.

But... he couldn't turn back.

what to do……

What should I do?
Li Mu was certain that there was definitely a ghost among these people, but... he didn't know what the ghost would do to kill him.

If it wants to kill someone, it must meet a certain condition, and that deeply hidden condition is its only way to survive.

Li Mu knew that Huang Yourong was most likely killed.

He now really wants to know what Huang Yourong experienced before his death. If... he could know, he would be able to analyze the hidden way out.

Now, we can only take one step at a time.

I can only... travel with ghosts.

……

Snow Village.

While Li Mu was still trapped in the forest at the end of the village, something happened inside the village.

More than a dozen people gathered outside a house, and the old village chief was soon invited in.

Yu Hanzhou, Su Qian, Bai Yanliang and Lin Yan also rushed to the scene upon hearing the news.

"what happened?"

Lin Yan spoke first.

"I don't know." Yu Hanzhou shook his head slightly and glanced at Bai Yanliang and Lin Yan, "We just arrived too."

Lin Yan frowned slightly, looking a little uneasy. She looked up at the sky and said, "It's almost noon."

Everyone knew what she meant.

They had agreed to meet up at noon, so logically, they should have all returned by now, but... Li Mu, Huang Yourong, and Yu Sheng were nowhere to be seen.

Hope they are...safe and sound.

The old village chief leaned on his walking stick, and the crowd automatically made way for him.

Today, his granddaughter does not follow him.

"Ahem...open the door."

The old village chief said after a light cough.

Upon hearing this, the two villagers walked forward without saying a word and gently pushed open the door.

However, although there were many people present, there was still a commotion the moment the door was opened.

“Puff, puff, puff—”

Several black birds flew out the moment the door was opened, scaring the villagers who opened the door so much that they stepped back.

However...what was truly horrifying was the scene inside the house.

The roof appears to be leaking.

The dim light shone on the wet ground, eerie and deserted.

The water droplets flowed down the eaves and then gathered on the ground.

Perhaps because it had been soaked, the body lying on the ground was emitting a strong stench.

"what!!!"

"Li Laosi! This time it's Li Laosi!"

"How could this happen...how could this happen..."

Cries of panic rang out one after another, and Bai Yanliang and the other three looked back and forth at the villagers.

This was the first time they saw such intense emotions from this group of strange-looking villagers.

The old village chief's eyes trembled slightly, but he managed to calm down: "What are you arguing about!"

"No... Impossible! I just saw Li Laosi yesterday, how could he be so rotten today? Impossible... This is absolutely impossible!" A dark and thin villager shouted in horror.

Bai Yanliang glanced at him and walked into the house.

Seeing this, Yu Hanzhou and the other two also went in.

Bai Yanliang squatted down and carefully examined the body in front of him. He was emitting a foul odor and his skin and flesh were already rotten.

Su Qian couldn't help it and dry-heaved twice.

Lin Yan, who was also a woman, was much better than her. She endured the physical discomfort, squatted down and checked carefully.

"Judging from the degree of decay, this person has been dead for a long time. It is definitely not the case that person said. He couldn't have been alive yesterday."

Lin Yan said.

"Well, the fatal wound should be here." Yu Hanzhou pointed to the heart area of ​​the corpse, where there was an obvious wound. It seemed that some sharp object had penetrated the heart and caused his death.

Bai Yanliang cleaned the rotten flesh and maggots from the heart without changing his expression and looked at it carefully.

But I found another problem.

Just as he was about to speak, suddenly, an inexplicable noise came from under the corpse.

His body was actually shaking slowly!
The faces of the people present changed drastically!

"The corpse has changed!"

"Run!"

The villagers' screams echoed throughout the mountains and forests, and the old village chief was shaking all over and his lips were quivering.

Just then, his abdomen suddenly made a sound.

"Ah-"

"Puff puff——"

A crow crawled out of his clothes and flew out of his abdomen!
"Go away!"

"Dead bird, get out!"

The crow fluttered over the villagers' heads for a long time before flying away.

Bai Yanliang and Yu Hanzhou squatted down at the same time and reached out to lift up the clothes of the deceased.

Seeing this scene, even Lin Yan couldn't bear it anymore. She quickly ran to the side and vomited a few mouthfuls of sour water.

However, Bai Yanliang and Yu Hanzhou looked at each other and saw the certainty in each other's eyes.

Blood sacrifice without intention...

You should understand the first half of the sentence.

"It's her! It must be her! She's back for revenge!"

A villager with rough and dark skin shouted in horror.

"boom!"

As soon as he finished shouting, he was hit on the head with a cane. He felt dizzy and could hardly stand.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Get out of here!"

Yu Hanzhou and the other three were stunned. This was the first time they saw the village chief so angry.

All the villagers were afraid to speak any more, but Bai Yanliang and his companions could clearly sense that these strange-looking villagers were filled with fear...

"Everyone...please leave first. This is our village's matter." The old village chief looked at them with a turbid gaze and said without beating around the bush.

The four of them didn't argue, just nodded and left.

As soon as he left Li Laosi's house, Yu Hanzhou stopped, looked at everyone, and said, "Something is wrong. From their tone, Li Laosi is not the first person to die in Jixue Village in recent days. There were others who died before him."

"That's right." Lin Yan's eyes flashed with a shrewd light, "Someone is shouting 'This time it's Li Laosi'. It seems that there was also the last time, and the time before that."

"But...how did this Li Laosi die?" Su Qian had a questioning look on her face.

When we saw the body before, because the wound on the heart was very obvious, everyone thought that was the cause of death.

So...how did he die?

"In my opinion..." Yu Hanzhou adjusted his glasses and frowned slightly, "He was killed by a pierced heart first."

Upon hearing this, Bai Yanliang shook his head.

"No...I don't think so."

"Oh?" Yu Hanzhou was startled, then looked at Bai Yanliang: "What do you think, Mr. Bai?"

Bai Yanliang raised his head, came out of his thoughts, looked at the three people, and said slowly: "He was killed twice."

"Once it was a human, once... it was a ghost."
