"How about Uncle Six?"
I waited for Li Laoliuzai to read it carefully before I handed him a cigarette and asked him.
Li Laoliu took the cigarette, then frowned and said, "Judging from the texture, it should be human skin. It's just that your thing looks like it's already mature, but for some reason it's not dried at all." , still in a fresh state, a bit evil.”
As soon as I heard this, my mind suddenly buzzed.
The incident of Li Xiaohua being skinned is still fresh in my memory!
Later, my grandfather brought this lantern back and hung it on the beam. Now it is confirmed that this lantern is made of human skin, so I have reason to believe that it was my grandfather who skinned Li Xiaohua and made this Human skin lantern.
But why did my grandfather do this? How did he do it?
As a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old, just thinking about it makes me feel cruel.
I originally planned to use some means to burn the human skin lantern, but I couldn't do it after all. After all, I was the one who killed Li Xiaohua. Mu Yong questioned this.
In the end, I had to hang the lantern back up and put incense sticks in the room.
My father and my mother had gone to town to do some shopping, so I had to go to the kitchen and get something to eat.
But before I could finish this mouthful of rice, the big cow came to me in a hurry!
"Eleven, Ergouzi's body has been found!"
he shouted as soon as he entered the courtyard.
"Where?"
I quickly threw down the dishes and chopsticks in my hands and rushed out of the kitchen.
"I found it at the west end of the village. Everyone has taken it to my third uncle's house!"
Daniel said slightly nervously.
As soon as I heard this, I ran out quickly.
The bodies of these two dogs had disappeared for two or three days, and now they suddenly appeared inexplicably in the village. There must be something wrong.
I ran all the way to Li Sanxi's house. When I walked in, I found a headless body lying in the yard.
But after taking a closer look, I immediately felt something was wrong!
Although this corpse was also a male corpse and wore the same clothes as Er Gouzi, the shape was obviously wrong.
Er Gouzi was tall and tall, but this corpse was obviously thinner and shorter.
The villagers probably had preconceived notions. When they saw the headless corpse, they first thought of Er Gouzi, so they all thought it was Er Gouzi's body.
But if you look carefully, anyone can see that this figure is obviously different from Ergouzi.
"Third uncle, do you think this is Ergou's body?"
I frowned and stepped forward to ask Li Sanxi.
He was wiping his tears aside, but when he heard what I said, he suddenly froze!
Then he looked at the headless corpse on the ground, then at me, and asked doubtfully: "It seems that the body shape is different from Ergou. It is a little thinner. Has the body shrunk?"
"It's winter now, and the body will only harden, not shrink."
I shook my head and said solemnly.
Because I am almost certain that this headless corpse is definitely not that of Ergouzi.
"That doesn't seem to be Ergou."
Li Sanxi also stared and said.
"Not Ergou? Who is that?"
When the people around him heard this, their faces all changed!
In fact, this is also what I want to ask. Since it is not Ergouzi, then whose headless body belongs to it?
"Is there anyone missing in the village?"
I looked at everyone and asked with a frown.
"Who knows?"
A woman spread her hands and said, "There are hundreds of people in the village. Unless the whole village is called here, who knows who is missing?"
I looked back and saw that it was Li Erlu's wife who was speaking.
Her suggestion was good, so I stepped forward and suggested to the village chief that he call all the men in the village here to see if anyone is missing.
"Isn't this too much trouble? How about I send a few people to the village to go door to door and ask if all the men in the family are there? Wouldn't it be clear?"
The village chief thought for a moment, frowned and said.
"That's okay too."
I nodded, and then the village chief sent people to go door to door to inquire!
The rest of the people gathered around the headless body, trying to determine the identity of the deceased based on his body shape and characteristics.
Li Sanxi's mother-in-law, who was lying next to the body and crying her heart out, stopped crying now and stepped aside in embarrassment, crying completely lonely.
Everyone looked at it for a long time, but they couldn't identify who the body belonged to, so in the end they just made random guesses.
"Why do I think he looks like your man? There is a mole on his neck."
"Nonsense, my man was at home just now."
"I feel like a village chief, as thick as a finger."
A woman said and looked back at the village chief.
The village chief's expression suddenly changed, and he shouted loudly: "Stop guessing, we'll find out when they come back!"
Everyone stopped now, and if they continue to make random guesses, whoever's man has a few hairs on his legs and a few moles on his thighs will probably have to turn out.
After waiting for more than half an hour, the few villagers who went to inquire from house to house all came back, but the strange thing is that there are no men missing from any family in the village, not a single one.
This is a bit unreasonable. Could it be that this headless corpse fell from the sky?
"Are you sure every household has gone to see it?"
I turned around and asked the few villagers who came to inquire.
"After seeing it all, it turns out there is nothing missing. This corpse may not be from our village at all."
Li Fulin frowned and said.
He is also an uncle in the village, ranked sixteenth, and is the only bachelor in our village.
Suddenly, a headless corpse appeared in the village for no apparent reason. This was very strange. The atmosphere in the village, which had originally relaxed, suddenly became tense again.
"Eleven, you are more knowledgeable. What do you think should be done with this corpse?"
The village chief looked at me sadly and asked.
"Let's burn it. Since we're not from the village and we don't know where it came from, it's safer to keep it for fear of something bad happening."
I suggested.
Naturally, other people have no objections. They are not members of their own family anyway, so just burn it!
Besides, this corpse appeared inexplicably in the village. It's very evil no matter how you say it. Burning it will definitely be a clean slate!
The reason why I suggested burning it was mainly because I was afraid of a situation like Ergouzi. If the body disappeared again, wouldn't it be scary?
Besides, Er Gouzi's headless corpse disappeared two days ago, and now there is another headless corpse in the village. I wonder if there is any connection between the two?
So I burned the body directly to avoid this happening again!
The village chief directed several people on the spot and asked them to collect some firewood, pile it into a pyre, then place the headless body on top and light the fire.
The body was quickly engulfed in fire, and it took nearly an hour to burn completely.
The villagers dug pits and buried all the ashes, so that when they saw the ashes in the future, they would think of corpses being burned here, which would be scary.
