Chapter 15 Gu Village (15) He seems to be pregnant
“Ghost!” “Ahhhhhhhh!!!” “Mom!”
Some were shouting "ghost", some were screaming meaninglessly, some were shouting "mom", high-pitched screams came one after another.
There were originally more than a dozen people in the yard, but after that wet head appeared, most of them ran away.
Wang Yihan, who had been the craziest before, did not run away at this time. Although his legs were shaking, he stood straight at the gate of the yard, staring at the direction of Tan Yue.
He doesn't trust anyone now, only Tan Yue. Wang Yihan's intuition tells him: The safest place is where the boss is!
Run? Where can they run to? They walked for seven or eight hours yesterday, but they still didn't come back. Running out would just be a waste of energy.
But if Tan Yue fails, he will fall into complete despair.
"state!"
Tan Yue instinctively used the hard cover in his hand to press down the protruding head, and then quickly covered the half-moved bluestone. The whole set of actions took no more than three seconds.
He took several steps back, and the heavy bluestone and the wood on top were knocked over by the head full of hair. Two skinny hands pushed aside the hair covering her forehead, and the woman climbed out of the big water tank.
"It's Granny Li!"
Tan Yue successfully recognized the face with his outstanding eyesight. He stepped back immediately, and in a flash he retreated dozens of meters and went straight to the door.
But he was not afraid of Granny Li, he just wanted to avoid suspicion. When he saw Granny Li had no clothes on her upper body, he quickly looked away and stopped himself from looking down: Don't look at anything inappropriate!
Although Granny Li was quite old, with wrinkles all over her face, and not very pretty, and skinny and shriveled, there was nothing good about her. When Tan Yue saw her, his first reaction was: this skinny figure was actually very suitable for being a nude model for art students to draw.
Tan Yue didn't care about this before. As an art student, he didn't have any evil thoughts when looking at models. He had seen many bodies of living people and dead people.
It's different now, men and women are different, he is a family man, he must always remember the male virtues! After seeing Guan Shan, Tan Yue made a decision that he would no longer paint nudes and portraits, but only Guan Shan.
As for his future career, it was also very simple. He studied the art of editing and directing and did not plan to be a professional painter. His family hoped that he would join the provincial TV station as a TV program host, a regular one.
After all, their whole family is in the system. Although they are not rich, they are very stable. Influenced by his family, Tan Yue also prefers to enter a public institution after graduating from university and have a stable job.
Not only did he not look, he also called out to Wang Yihan: "Close the gate first, and let Grandma Li put on her clothes!"
Tan Yue said this very loudly, so that even Granny Li could hear it. But after he finished speaking, he felt a little annoyed because Granny Li seemed to not understand Mandarin.
Tan Yue thought with lingering fear: Fortunately, he reacted quickly, otherwise he would easily get stye if he saw dirty things.
He said to Wang Yihan, "Let's go find Uncle Li Ang and ask him to come over and make sure Granny Li is dressed properly."
Wang Yihan was infected by Tan Yue's overly calm mood and nodded subconsciously, then shook his head violently: "Boss, let's go in!"
Who can stay in the water tank all the time? It must not be a human, it must be a ghost. Such a thin old lady can easily push such a heavy stone away. It is obvious that she is a dirty thing. Zhang Xiong must have been harmed by this old woman ghost.
Although Wang Yihan is not smart enough, he is afraid of death. He can't go to the ghost's house when he knows there is a ghost in the yard.
"I told you not to call me boss. Just call me by my name like before." Tan Yue doesn't like being flattered.
"Oh, Brother Tan, can you handle that old woman ghost?"
Tan Yue shook his head and said, "Who said Granny Li was a ghost? Her hair was just wet and she looked like a ghost. I was so close that I could hear her heartbeat."
Lin Qingxue added: "Yes, I saw the shadow of Grandma Li. She does have a shadow. She might be pretending to be a ghost!"
Although she didn't know why Grandma Li was pretending to be a ghost, no one wanted to believe that they had encountered a ghost.
"Ghosts don't have heartbeats, they don't have shadows, and they're afraid of light, so Granny Li is definitely not a ghost."
Tan Yue only said that Granny Li was not a ghost, but he did not say that Granny Li was not a non-human monster. There was no way, Wang Yihan and the others looked frightened, he felt that he should be more positive and sunny.
Song Yu, who was standing by, felt that something was wrong: "But...but Zhang Xiong is dead! There's only his head left in the jar! If it wasn't done by Granny Li, then who could have done it?"
Tan Yue said: "Zhang Xiong may not have been killed by Grandma Li. Someone may have been seeking revenge on him. Grandma Li just hid herself. There is a long bloodstain in the small courtyard, which was dragged from Grandma Li's room to the courtyard. She may have been seriously injured."
As for Zhang Xiong, when he lifted up his head, he found many bite marks on it: "Zhang Xiong's brain was eaten. Judging from the marks, it must have been eaten clean by insects and ants. There are many insects and ants in the mountains. It may be that he encountered ants, or other insects that live in groups."
He made a judgment: "No matter what, you should not sleep in Grandma Li's house, and you should not eat their food. If possible, leave this village."
Li Dan couldn't help but say, "You sound like we were walking lightly. We walked for seven or eight hours yesterday, from morning to night. We drank all the water we brought with us. Now our legs are as soft as noodles. We can't even walk!"
Wang Jiaojiao also said: "Exactly, you knew about this situation in advance, and wanted us to explore the way for you, otherwise why would you stay in the village?"
Wang Yihan firmly stood on Tan Yue's side: "Are you guys sick? You blame the sky, the earth, the air, and you can even blame the boss."
He suddenly thought of something: "Before, Zhang Xiong also went crazy and targeted Brother Tan. Wang Jiaojiao, you won't be the same as Zhang Xiong, will you?"
Although only two days had passed, Wang Yihan was determined to follow what Tan Yue had said before. She would rather go hungry than eat the food made by Granny Li. She ate it on the first day and vomited it all up by scratching her throat.
Thinking of what Tan Yue said about the bugs eating Zhang Xiong's brain, Wang Yihan's mind suddenly opened up: "There is a legend about Gu worms in Y Province. Could it be Gu worms? The food we eat has been infested with bugs, so Zhang Meng was controlled by the bugs. Then we all left, leaving Zhang Meng alone, and he was eaten by the bugs!"
It must be said that Wang Yihan was quite smart and actually found out the truth. He looked at Tan Yue with admiration: "Brother Tan, you guessed it a long time ago! So you specifically told us not to eat the food cooked by Granny Li."
The more he thought about it, the more it made sense: "Grandma Li felt that her conspiracy had been exposed! So she drove Zhang Xiong to attack you."
"Ahem..." Tan Yue said, "I never said that. I just think that Grandma Li's cooking is unhygienic. It may not be a Gu worm, but a parasite. Parasites can cause hallucinations in the brain."
Song Yu felt that something was not right: "If it was a poisonous insect, then how did we get out and come back?"
Tan Yue said casually: "That is when you fell asleep, the worms in your stomach drove you back home."
You know what, it's really possible that they lost consciousness while walking, and when they woke up, their feet were rubbed raw.
Wang Yihan immediately covered his stomach, his face sad: "What should I do? I vomited all the porridge I ate on the first day. Will the deworming medicine help?"
"Who brings insecticide when traveling?"
"These kids are so funny, they're always talking nonsense." Several people in Li Ang's house couldn't help but laugh when they heard the discussion.
In particular, the middle-aged housewife who was holding her husband's arm laughed at him and said, "You guys have read too many novels. There is no such magical insect."
Elderly couples see a lot of things, but they are not as mean as her. Regardless of whether the magical insects exist or not, it is true that a male student in the tour group died suddenly. If someone dies, you must call the police.
"Murder cases should be left to the police." But the old lady's question was, "Did any of you call the police?"
Today is the third day since the tour group arrived at the village. Since they arrived at the village, no one’s cell phone has had any signal.
The middle-aged man said proudly: "My phone is custom-made and worth 200,000 yuan. It has satellite positioning and can make calls even in the deep mountains and forests. It's just that it has no battery."
Song Yu looked at the fat man's face and had the urge to beat up this greasy middle-aged man. If his satellite phone was so useful, why didn't he tell him earlier? He restrained his urge to hit him and said, "I still have a little power in my power bank. I can lend it to you to charge it first."
He really hoped that this was all just a coincidence and that everyone was just imagining things.
Five minutes later, as everyone was waiting, the middle-aged man's phone started up, but it was no different from everyone else's: "Your phone is currently unable to connect to the call, please try again later..."
"vomit……"
The middle-aged man looked embarrassed, then suddenly ran to the side of the road and vomited. The air was filled with an extremely unpleasant smell of vomit.
"Honey, are you okay?" His wife patted her husband's back and combed his hair very considerately. Their married life has been particularly harmonious in the past two days, and their relationship has been much better than before the trip.
The middle-aged man covered his stomach and said, "I just felt sick when I saw that dead man. I vomited everything I ate yesterday and my stomach hurts a bit." Thinking of the delicious food he had eaten in the past few days, he felt it was a pity.
Tan Yue certainly had no interest in other people's vomit, but he remembered that the man's belly was big the day before yesterday afternoon, but not as big as it is now.
If the middle-aged man had a beer belly of a four-month pregnant woman before, his belly now was like that of a woman in her seventh or eighth month of pregnancy. It was not mealtime, and even a pig could not grow so much belly fat in three days. And after the other party vomited, his belly was still very big.
If it was an illusion caused by clothes, the clothes the other person was wearing were no different from before, still the same grey round-neck polo shirt.
And when the man covered his stomach, he saw something move inside the man's stomach, as if... the man was pregnant.
