Chapter 415: Almost Capsized [5000 Chapters, Please Vote for Me]
Danger strikes instantly.
In the blink of an eye, the pot-bellied female corpse was already in front of him.
"Xiaoyu!"
Lin Mo shouted while retreating.
The pot-bellied female corpse reached out to grab it, but Xiao Yu appeared in time and stood in front of Lin Mo.
The female corpse's hand suddenly grabbed Xiao Yu's wrist.
With a squeaking sound, a stream of green smoke came out directly from his palm, like some kind of intense chemical reaction. Xiaoyu pushed hard with his other hand, but he couldn't push the female corpse away.
The female corpse had a ferocious face, and the terrifying resentment directly suppressed Xiao Yu. The black skirt was unable to move under the resentment of the female corpse.
Lin Mo had never seen this kind of thing before.
Lin Mo moved quickly, and quickly went around behind the pot-bellied female corpse, stretched out his hand to strangle the other party's neck, while Xiao Yu clasped the other hand of the female corpse to prevent the other party from attacking Lin Mo.
Here, Lin Mo has already dealt with several attacks and curses.
Including the Curse of Aging.
The aging curse still worked. The female corpse's strength finally weakened and she let go of her hand. Lin Mo took the opportunity to throw the pregnant female corpse aside.
Ouch!
There was a roar of a tiger, and the little tiger realized it at this time and pounced on it, biting at the female corpse.
At this time, Lin Mo glanced at Xiao Yu's wrist that he had just grabbed, and a black fingerprint appeared, as if some corrosive liquid had been poured on it, corroding Xiao Yu's skin.
Although there was no fluctuation on Xiaoyu's face, Lin Mo knew that Xiaoyu suffered a big loss just now.
Lin Mo's control of the battle situation was relatively accurate.
He could see that even at full strength, he was no match for this pot-bellied female corpse.
The most terrifying thing is not the pot-bellied female corpse itself.
Xiaoyu's eyes were staring at the belly of the female corpse.
Lin Mo also felt something strange from the other person's bulging belly.
What was in the belly of the female corpse was even scarier than the female corpse itself.
"Xiaohu, let's go!"
Lin Mo didn't hesitate, shouted and ran out immediately.
Xiaohu didn't hesitate to fight after several sneak attacks, and ran faster than Lin Mo.
But the next moment, the way out disappeared, and the original courtyard door suddenly turned into a wall.
This must be the ability of the female corpse.
It seemed that there was no way out, but at this time Lin Mo became more and more calm.
He felt something change behind him, and without looking back, he knocked out the paper man he had just held in his hand.
Lin Mo's rich experience saved him.
If he had hesitated for a moment or looked back, he would have been killed by the female corpse that was chasing after him. At that moment, the female corpse completely floated over, at most half a foot away from Lin Mo.
Fortunately, the paper man transformed into the female corpse the moment it touched it.
In an instant, two identical female corpses hit each other.
The terrifying resentment doubled at this moment.
The female corpse that the paper man turned into bought Lin Mo some time, especially since the paper man's female corpse perfectly copied the opponent's abilities. The escape route that was originally cut off by the female corpse was now re-opened by the paper man.
Lin Mo immediately took Xiaoyu and Xiaohu out.
Even when he got outside, Lin Mo didn't stop for a moment and continued to rush forward, running for hundreds of meters before stopping.
Looking back, I can no longer see Carpenter Zhang’s house.
Lin Mo's expression was particularly solemn at this time.
The fierce battle just happened only lasted for a few breaths, but the intensity was more intense than any previous fight. Lin Mo was even in danger several times.
Maybe I just confessed due to bad luck.
That mother-in-law and daughter corpses were so terrifying.
Especially the sky-high resentment. Lin Mo had never seen such resentment before, and it actually directly suppressed most of Xiao Yu's abilities.
Although the paper man resisted, Lin Mo still pulled Xiaoyu forward for a while, and only stopped to rest again after it was completely safe.
Let’s look at Xiaoyu’s wrist first.
It hurt very badly.
The black handprints were still corroding, and Xiaoyu's originally fair wrists were now losing a large amount of flesh and blood, and even bones were visible in some places.
There was no expression on Xiaoyu's face, as if she was not the one who was injured.
Even so, Lin Mo was heartbroken.
"Xiaoyu, don't worry, this revenge will be avenged for you. Next time, I will let you swallow that pot-bellied woman directly." Lin Mo gritted his teeth.
I don’t know if Xiaoyu’s injuries can be recovered.
At this time, Lin Mo felt something rubbing his back.
Looking back, I saw it was Xiaohu.
In an instant, Lin Mo's pupils shrank.
Xiaohu was also injured.
A hole was ripped open in its abdomen, leaving blood all over the floor.
Lin Mo's eyes were red.
After careful inspection, fortunately it was not fatal, but obviously Xiaohu would not be able to play next time if he tried again.
In the end, they were left intact, and both Xiaoyu and Xiaohu were successful.
Lin Mo has been in the nightmare world for so long, and this is the first time he has suffered such a big loss.
"What is the origin of that pot-bellied female corpse?"
After Lin Mo became angry, he forced himself to calm down.
In that situation, without the paper man as a back-up, Lin Mo knew that he would be in trouble. Because neither Xiaoyu nor Xiaohu could stop the pot-bellied female corpse, and in just ten seconds of fighting, Lin Mo almost showed all his trump cards.
Let’s sum up the experience.
Otherwise, he would suffer a loss next time. Lin Mo didn't want to stumble in the same place again.
"Too aggressive!"
Lin Mo reflected on himself.
It was too smooth sailing before, but this time he actually came to Zhang Carpenter's house without knowing the situation at all, and took action whenever he disagreed.
Now think about it, these are all problems.
The so-called knowing yourself and the enemy.
Lin Mo could be a confidant, but he didn't know the other person's situation beforehand, so he suffered a loss. Just imagine, if Lin Mo had known in advance that there was a monster like a pot-bellied female corpse, Lin Mo would not have rushed in. He should have escaped immediately when the monster appeared.
Just as he was thinking about it, Lin Mo felt his back being rubbed a few more times.
"Xiaohu, what's the matter with you?" Lin Mo glanced at Xiaohu. The next moment, Xiaohu opened his mouth, and a nightmare filled with mucus, malice and unwillingness spit out from his mouth.
Lin Mo was stunned.
Looking again, the nightmare being spat out looks a bit familiar.
Isn't this the old man just now?
Didn't the other party eat it as a tiger? Why did he vomit it out again? It's indigestion?
Lin Mo was still dazed, but Xiaohu had already slapped Lao Ba on the head and let out a whimper, which meant that he should speak to me quickly.
Lao Ba trembled, struggling with thoughts flashing in his eyes, but he seemed to be suppressed by a more powerful force.
The next moment, he knelt down with a bang towards Lin Mo.
"I know the origin of that mother-in-law corpse!"
Lao Ba said.
Lin Mo suddenly remembered that the nightmare giant tiger seemed to have spewed out some nightmares while fighting with the butcher. Those nightmares also caused some trouble at that time. Fortunately, Xiaoyu assisted and wiped them all out, otherwise the butcher would definitely die.
Lin Mo thought of a word at that time.
Working for the tiger!
It is said that people who are eaten by tigers will become ghosts and be controlled by tigers.
Could it be that this old man was turned into a ghost by Xiaohu?
That little tiger is quite awesome.
The fact is just as Lin Mo speculated, the old man who was devoured by the tiger is a ghost.
Now it is under the control of Xiaohu, and it will do whatever it is told to do.
"Okay, tell me, start from the beginning, don't miss anything!"
Lin Mo found that he had not always suffered a loss before, at least he had killed one of the other party's people, and he had also been turned into a puppet by Xiaohu.
Now Lin Mo could finally find out some of Zhang Carpenter's secrets.
And the mother-in-law corpse.
Lao Ba obviously didn't want to say it, but since he had turned into a ghost, let alone reveal the secret, he would have to do it even if he was asked to kill his close relatives with a knife.
This does not depend on will.
Next, Lin Mo learned an incredible story.
Carpenter Zhang was indeed in the same group as those tomb robbers, and he was the second in charge, the handsome villain that Lin Mo saw just now.
About a hundred years ago, China was in chaos and order was broken. In order to make a living, many people began to do some evil things that were harmful to nature.
The tomb robber heard that there was a large tomb near Guimen Village, so he wanted to make a fortune.
But at that time, Guimen Village was located outside Qianlong City. It was the territory of a certain big warlord, and the tomb robbers did not dare to make a big fuss. At that time, if good things were dug out, it would be troublesome to transport them out.
This group of tomb robbers also had their own methods. After observation, their second-in-command decided to lurk in Guimen Village.
In order to be lurking and have an identity, the Second Master happens to know an ancient method, which can skin people and disguise them as the other person, making it difficult to distinguish the real person from the fake one.
So the real Carpenter Zhang had already done something wrong.
During those few days, the second master pretended to be carpenter Zhang, and under the pretense of going out to work, he searched everywhere and finally found the entrance to the tomb.
Afterwards, the task of digging holes and robbing tombs was handed over to other accomplices, while he himself returned to the village and prepared to use the prepared coffins to deliver the treasures under the pretense of delivering goods.
This plan can be said to be seamless.
Carpenter Zhang is a craftsman, and no one would suspect him of transporting things.
At that time, his disguise skills were so good that even if people in the village saw it, they would not be able to see any flaws at all.
But there is one person who can see it.
That is Carpenter Zhang’s wife.
The night before the baby was shipped back, Carpenter Zhang's wife couldn't see her husband for a few days. She was worried and went to the place where Carpenter Zhang worked to look for him.
As a result, I discovered the clue after seeing ‘Carpenter Zhang’.
One can imagine how the second boss could let this woman go.
The second master was also ruthless. He thought of an extremely vicious method, which was to beat the woman violently and pull out her tongue, leaving her speechless.
Then he poured dirty water on these poor women, saying that she had committed adultery with others.
As for the target of adultery, it was too easy to find a few refugees in that environment at that time.
The result is that the innocent woman dies unjustly and sinks to the bottom of the river in despair and resentment. Coincidentally, after she was drowned in the river, the tomb robbers brought the treasures found from the ancient tomb back to Guimen Village.
What they didn't expect was that there was a source of nightmare pollution.
Therefore, Mrs. Zhang who died unjustly became the nightmare of the second master. Not only him, but also the villagers who participated in the sinking of the river at that time also received money from the second master, knowing that Mrs. Zhang might have been wronged.
But for those gold and silver things, they destroyed their conscience.
Therefore, after the nightmare pollution, their fear and guilt directly turned Zhang Carpenter's wife into the most terrifying nightmare in Guimen Village.
A lot of things happened that night, and Lao Ba didn't know much. As for the bodies of the mother and daughter, they were brought out from the ancient tomb.
Hearing this, Lin Mo was stunned.
"Are you sure you were digging an ancient tomb?"
"Yes, at least eight hundred years ago!"
"Is there a female corpse inside?"
Lao Ba shook his head, and then nodded: "It was a coffin at the time, and I didn't know what was inside. But before we opened it, we were contaminated by evil spirits. We didn't know it at the time, but while we were eating and drinking, a few hired porters suddenly He went crazy and started killing people. I wasn't paying attention at the time and was stabbed in the heart with a knife, and then I ended up in this hellish place."
Lao Ba's narration was actually a bit confusing, and sometimes he said something here and there, but Lin Mo pieced it together and roughly figured out what happened.
They are responsible for digging out the treasures in the ancient tombs, while the second master is responsible for logistics. Because he was hit by Zhang, he had no choice but to kill and silence him. As a result, when his companions came back the next day, they brought back nightmare contaminants.
As a result, Guimen Village has become a polluted area. That night, someone was affected by the pollutants, turned into a madman, and started killing people indiscriminately.
Lin Mo remembered that he had seen Widow Liu doing laundry with a knife stuck in the back of her neck.
He was probably killed that night as well.
It stands to reason that people in the contaminated area can continue to live in the nightmare world and maintain normal memories. Except that they cannot wake up, they are no different from normal living people.
But the villagers here are obviously different.
They have no memory, and some even retain the appearance and wounds of their previous deaths.
For example, Widow Liu, such as A Bin.
They are more like real 'ghosts'.
But I know something about this.
"The villagers were normal at first, and some didn't even know they were dead. But then the woman in the river came back. Every time she came back, the villagers would change. Over time, the villagers became like this. Son."
"Then why are you okay?" Lin Mo asked.
"Because that woman can't come in. In the whole village, we are the only place where she can't come in." Lao Ba answered truthfully.
Lin Mo thought of the black dog blood lines and peach wood chips at the door of Carpenter Zhang's house. No need to ask, these were things to prevent Carpenter Zhang's wife from coming in.
However, Lin Mo felt that just those few black dog blood threads and peach wood chips could not stop Shenhe's evil ghost for a hundred years.
There must be other reasons for this.
For example, the tomb robbers used the corpses of mother and daughter to prevent Carpenter Zhang’s wife from entering the yard.
Didn't he just almost get killed by the corpses of his mother and daughter?
To be honest, Lin Mo felt that if these two things fought, the corpse of mother and daughter would be more powerful. Although he had not fought against Zhang Carpenter's wife, this was the feeling.
Lao Ba said that they did use the mother and daughter corpses, but they did not dare to use this monster too much.
"The boss said that it is a real evil thing. If you can't use it, don't use it unless you have no choice..." Lao Ba ranked eighth in the gang.
His status was not high, so he only knew that the bodies of his mother and daughter were dug out of ancient tombs and crawled out of coffins. He didn't know much more.
Lin Mo asked about the theater troupe again.
This is also an extremely strange thing in Guimen Village. Judging from the current observed situation, the role of the theater troupe should be to stabilize the situation.
Every day, the troupe will sing an opera, and during the opera, the entire village, including Brother Man, the wild man who was beaten to death with sticks, and Zhang Carpenter's wife, will be calmed down from their three most terrifying nightmares. Watch the show honestly.
If this is really the case, who brought the troupe in? Who is leading it?
Lin Mo had no idea about this matter before, but while listening to Lao Ba's story, he noticed one detail.
That was the second boss pretending to be Carpenter Zhang.
The other party is proficient in the art of disguise and can peel off people's faces.
Lin Mo immediately thought of the faces of the experts he had seen missing on the table in the theater troupe.
The theater troupe, is it related to the second master?
Lin Mo asked Lao Ba, but Lao Ba didn't know anything about it. He even said that he didn't even know there was such a thing as a theater troupe.
"We have been trapped in Zhang Carpenter's yard and can't get out at all. Is there a troupe outside? What are they singing?" Lao Ba asked curiously.
Lin Mo glanced at Xiaohu.
He knew that it was impossible for a demon to lie after being eaten by a tiger and then spat out.
Lao Ba really doesn’t know.
It seems that the Tomb Raiders are not monolithic internally.
There are more things that Lao Ba can't explain.
Lin Mo asked Xiaohu to swallow this guy back. Xiaoyu and Xiaohu would need to rest and recuperate. They would not be used in the next battle.
But in this case, Lin Mo's combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.
Carpenter Zhang can no longer go to his house for a short period of time, because he can't get rid of the corpses of his mother and daughter, and it will be in vain if he is not careful.
Of course, this time it was not without gain.
Lin Mo knew a lot about the origin of Guimen Village and the secrets hidden here. He also knew that the most terrifying existence here was not Zhang Carpenter's wife, but the corpses of his mother and daughter hidden in Zhang Carpenter's house.
In addition, the whereabouts of the missing experts were also clarified.
They have been killed.
The plan to rescue them was completely ruined.
However, Lin Mo did not see Lin Nan during this time.
"Should we ask Xiao Yu again?" Lin Mo hesitated, but at this stage Xiao Yu couldn't detect Lin Nan's aura unless he gave her a sip of Demon Manifestation Soup.
But after Xiaoyu drank the magic manifesting soup, she felt a little out of control.
Lin Mo looked in the direction of Carpenter Zhang's house, thought for a moment, and then retreated towards the entrance of the village.
Let's meet up with Captain Chen first to see if there are any new discoveries from his side monitoring the stage. Also, Lin Mo told Rabbit before to talk to A Bin more often.
Maybe there will be something to gain.
All the way back, Lin Mo could already vaguely hear the sound of opera singers.
The further forward, the sound becomes clearer and clearer.
But Captain Chen was not seen.
Continuing forward, there was still no sign of Captain Chen.
Moving forward, you can already see many villagers, and you can even see the huge figure of Brother Man, the nightmare.
Lin Mo looked underground, looking for Captain Chen's black spots.
nor.
After being stunned for a long time, Lin Mo's eyes turned sharp.
"Captain Chen is doing a safe and well-discussed matter. It is impossible for him to leave unless something unexpected happens!" Lin Mo muttered.
He looked for A Bin and Rabbit, but couldn't find them either.
In the strange village shrouded in gray mist, the infiltrating singing voices were faint and trembling. Lin Mo stood in the empty corner, feeling a little overwhelmed for a moment.
