Leprosy Compound (XII)

The picture comes from the headline genuine picture library, invaded and deleted

The black-clad headless man is characterized by fast and not slow, and at the moment when Jingbu sneaked deep into the closet, several headless people had quickly grabbed him and fell down with him. At the same time as the fall, Jing Bushen heard the sound of the entire water tower collapsing violently.

Kyobu-shen and the four headless men rolled down a long slope and sank into the water. Under the dark water, several dark shadows swam deep towards Jingbu. Shadow and the four headless men fought in the water, but gradually the headless people were scattered. JingBu choked on a few deep mouthfuls of water, and there was no strength to resist at all. I had to be a few prisoners of the Dark Shadow.

The shadows grabbed Kyobutsu and led him to a small, enclosed room under the water. When the people who came lit the candles, Jing Bushen was surprised to find that those people were Huo Biao and the missing police officers. Upon questioning, Jing Bushen learned that Huo Biao and the four police officers were in another bedroom on the fourth floor of the water tower, and were secretly attacked by the headless man and brought underwater by the passage under the bed. Just like the situation just now, Huo Biao and the police officers who went under the water easily beat away the headless man, and then they touched this small closed room.

This small underwater room is the pressurized chamber of the water tower. In order to facilitate manual operation, the room has a function of closed drainage. When Huo Biao and a few people brought Jing Bushen to this closed room, Jing Bushen did not wait to catch a few breaths before he said to Huo Biao, "Save them (the headless people) as well!" ”

Huo Biao looked at Jing Bushen for a few seconds in shock and asked, "Why?" ”

Kyobu said, "Because they saved me!" ”

Huo Biao: "Your so-called saving you is only that they followed you." How do you know they're following you and you're good to you? Maybe it's to kill you with your own hands! ”

Seeing that JingBushen was speechless, Huo Biao and several people told Jingbushen about what had happened to them in the past few days and some of the inside information they had accidentally obtained about the good case. Huo Biao and the four police officers led by him were taken to the bottom of the well by the Headless and defeated the Headless, after entering the enclosed room. I began to worry about how to escape safely, but under such a water far away from people, I couldn't think of any crime of escaping. After two days of starvation, they found that the large pump in the room would transport the filtered water from a large vertical pipe to the reservoir at the top of the tower every night. At the same time, this large pipe also plays the role of ventilating this closed cabin.

The hungry Huo Biao and a few others envisioned a way to escape from death, that is, to cut a hole in the large pipe of the pump to press the water upwards, send a brother to drill into the hole, and stand on his legs at the water inlet that had become thin and thick. The people outside had sealed the hole again. In this way, as soon as the pump began to deliver water to the top of the water tower, the brother would be sent to the reservoir at the top of the water tower, and if he could escape from the reservoir alive, he would return to the patrol to rescue the people trapped under the water.

On the night of the third day, Huo Biao and the five of them used their axes to cut a hole in the large water pipe, and then used the lottery method to decide who would go to the pipe to take this risk. Everyone knows in their hearts that this is a way to survive by running to death, because when that person is carried by the water to the top of the water tower, the head is very likely to hit the top wall of the reservoir, and even if he is not killed, he will die of coma and drowning. The result of the draw was that a police officer named Fei Jiyuan won the lottery. He said goodbye to everyone one by one, and there was not much sadness, but everyone was very depressed in their hearts, because everyone knew in their hearts that there was not much difference between late death and early death.

Everyone tied thick clothes to Fei Jiyuan's head and put an iron plate on the top. When Fei Jiyuan drilled into the water pipe and stood up, he said goodbye to everyone again, and then they sealed the hole in the water pipe again, just waiting for the pump to start sending water upwards.

Just as the huge pump in the room was beginning to deliver water upwards as usual, the officers felt the whole room shake and heard the sound of the water tower building collapsing. They knew that the situation had changed, so they quickly opened the iron door of the room, and several people swam out to check the movement. So he encountered Kyobushen being taken underwater by several headless people, so he shot to break up the headless people, rescued Kyobushen into the room, and reopened the door to drain the water. This is the experience of Huo Biao and the four police officers he led after they lost their way to the fourth floor of the water tower.

Fei Ji, who entered the water supply pipe, was far from dying, but in the current situation, several of them could only wait patiently. Huo Biao asked Jing Bushen about what had happened outside in the past few days. Kyobubu told them how he and the police officers he led were rescued from the fourth floor of the water tower, how they were locked up and re-entered the fourth floor of the water tower, and when Masako was in, he used the moonlight reflected by the dressing mirror to illuminate the spell in the closet. When Kyobu-shen talked about the similar death of the small robber and the two police officers and the two mysterious letters, Huo Biao said, "I know what is going on." ”

Huo Biao said: "I guess those two pieces of letter paper are the letters left by the felt hat guest in the case of the good comeback inn to the woman in the bag." ”

Jing Bushen asked, "Since the woman is next to the felt hat guest, he can say anything directly, so why should he write a letter?" Besides, after he stayed in the six-room room where he came back to the inn, the lights were dim, surrounded by five robbers, where was the opportunity to write a letter? ”

Huo Biao: "That's a long story. The woman was actually a witch, to put it bluntly, the living dead. ”

KyoBu-shen and the other three police officers couldn't help but widen their eyes. Kyobu asked, "What's the matter with the witches?" ”

Huo Biao: "You have heard of Xiangxi exorcising corpses, where the exorcists put a note on the door of the dead man's head, chanted incantations, and honked bells to make the corpses stand up and walk." The exorcists took them out of the remote and rugged mountain nests and sent them back to their hometowns one by one. This witch and demon are somewhat similar to Xiangxi's exorcisms, but they are very different in nature. The corpses that had been driven away were merely driven to walk by paper notes and incantations, and as soon as the paper notes were removed, they would immediately fall to the ground and could not move. And this witchcraft is different. This witchcraft was first transmitted from India, and the dead who received the spell not only restored the appearance and mobility of the living person, but more importantly, it could also restore the memory and intelligence of the person when he was alive. ”

"Isn't that just coming back to life?" Several officers said.

"It's better than coming back from the dead." They don't have to eat or drink, and the sensitivity of thinking and movement is much stronger than before. Once they are hit, they will turn into dry corpses, but this does not affect their mobility; if they are hit again, they will turn into a handful of dust. When Huo Biao said this, he seemed to fall into inexplicable sadness, and Jing Bushen found that he was hanging his head down, and the tears were shining.

Jing Bushen: "Then why did the felt hat guests want to provoke this gang of robbers?" With the experience of his official postman, it should not be difficult to identify the identity of those robbers! ”

Huo Biao: "They are seeking revenge, and they have a deep hatred with those robbers." ”

Jing Bushen: "According to what you said, didn't the felt hat guest take the initiative to send him to death!" ”

Huo Biao: "This is indeed unreasonable, but it is precisely because of the felt hat guest's approach that I guess the teacher of the witch has come to our realm." ”

"How do you know these things you said earlier?" Jingbu asked coldly, but he did not get an answer. For the sake of economy, they generally did not light candles, and of course he could not see Huo Biao's expression in the darkness. After a while, a slight snoring sound came from Huo Biao's position, and Jing Bushen also felt a pang of sleepiness, so he fell asleep against the wall with his clothes.

They were woken up by some kind of noise. At first, they couldn't tell where the dull, dull sound of the "bang" came from. When they lit the candle and listened carefully, it was confirmed that someone was knocking at the door. Everyone can't help but look at each other, such a deep underwater, who will knock on the door? Everyone had prepared their own guys to hold in their hands, and Huo Biao decisively opened the closed door. A black shadow carrying a large pocket swam into the room and motioned for Huo Biao to close the door. It was Fei Jiyuan who came.
