Old Miao felt somewhat strange: "Whats going on?"
Zha Wenbin stood by the door and pointed, "Look, theres something stuck on this door. This is a zombie-suppressing charm. Someone among those people must have recognized it and left. And Miao Grandfather, I think the hole you crawled into might not be in this main hall. Otherwise, you wouldnt be here now."
"Whats going on?" As for what happened back then, Old Miao himself had always felt that something was off. How did they suddenly stop when they got to that point?
"Take us to that hole we dug into, I think its safe there. Listen to my advice, this place is really not accessible, and it will cause trouble."
Seeing him speak so solemnly, we had all already decided not to go in. But that fatty suddenly laughed and said: "Make trouble? Youre speaking like a little adult. If you want to learn from dogs digging holes, I dont mind. Anyway, Fatty me has always only walked through the main gate. Besides, I was born in New China, grew up under the red flag, Marxism has always taught us to oppose feudal superstition, how can you still believe in this stuff?
Shi Baozis words immediately shut up Miao Dajie, who knew that we were all from families with problems, especially Cha Wenbin, whose family had someone involved in feudal superstition. If he acknowledged this, wouldnt it be the same as having a typical class thought error? If this got out and people found out, his reputation as an old revolutionary would be ruined for life.
Miao Dage started to hesitate, and Shi Pangzi became even more provocative: "A small piece of paper scared you all like that, look at you, one by one, standing up straight, still thinking youre men. I think youre not even as good as Xiao Bais daughter. Get out of my way, tonight Ill sit here at the gate and watch over everything. If anything happens, its on me!"
After finishing, he lifted his 43-code large feet, "Dangdang" sound, the door responded and fell down, "Dong" crashed to the ground, the dust that was shaken up floated everywhere, and everyones eyes were suddenly narrowed...
Inside the temple, it was pitch black and a pungent musty smell filled the air, probably due to the lack of ventilation for a long time. Old Miao had an electric torch in his hand, while we were all holding fire torches, staring at each other outside, none of us dared to make the first move. To be fair, that Shi Baozi did have some guts, he shouted loudly towards the inside: "Hey, fellow villagers inside, dont be afraid, were good people! We have policies and are educated by the Party to not take advantage of the masses even a single thread, our military and civilians are united, were all one family..."
I thought to myself, "What a ghost wants to be with your family?" This fat guys words are getting more and more out of line. He yelled at the door for half a day without any movement, my hanging heart temporarily put down a bit, only Zhu Wenbins face looked quite ugly.
The fatty turned around and smiled at us, "Hey, hey! Youre all good revolutionary kids. In the Jianghu, we help each other out in times of need. Theyre all sensible and upright young people. Ill report to the organization tomorrow and get some incense money to cover their expenses for this big favor." After saying that, he jerked his thumb and said, "Lets go, brothers!"
We went in with torches and took a look, its about the size of one and a half basketball courts, empty and deserted, no Buddha statues or shrines, quite different from the usual temple halls. However, there were three black coffins in the corner of the back wall, with a thick layer of dust on top. The coffins were placed on long-legged stools, with the middle one being the largest, and the two on either side slightly smaller.
This thing, whoever sees it wont think its good. Although Ive seen coffins before, that was when there were a lot of people around. To say that someone is left in this kind of environment, I think most peoples faces wouldnt look good. Maybe Shi Baozi didnt expect the scene inside to be like this either. The atmosphere on the scene suddenly became oppressive. Miao Lao Die is an experienced person after all, and he immediately shielded us behind him.
Everyone held their breath, staring at the few coffins in front of them. If it werent for Wen Bins words earlier, Lao Miao wouldnt have paid attention to this matter at all. Why? Because he had been through battles, really rolling around in piles of dead bodies, with broken arms and legs scattered everywhere. Whats a big deal about that?
Lao Ye Miao observed carefully, this place is indeed different from the house he came to that time. He remembered that the place I went to had a Buddha statue, and he hid behind the Buddha statue and slept for a whole night. Where does it look like here? Moreover, coffins appeared in the temple, which was already a bit off, so he thought about whether to take us out or not.
"I see you all have that in mind, so I said: Lets go out, I dont want to spend the night here, Id rather sleep in the woods."
Shi Baozi probably didnt want to stay here either, and immediately followed my words, saying: "Okay, its comfortable in the woods, at worst Ill keep watch for you tonight."
Miao Lao Die looked at Yuan Xiao Bai, who was already hiding behind me. He knew that these children were still young and didnt say anything about superstition or not. After all, the fear of death is human nature. He patted my shoulder and said, "Alright, lets go."
"No way!" said Cha Wenbin, his face still slightly immature, but with a tone that brooked no argument. "I told you not to come, and now that youve come in and stirred up trouble, you want to leave? Isnt that just trying to harm people on purpose?"
Shi Baozi was displeased as soon as he heard it, and immediately retorted: "Hey, cant you speak clearly? Who did I harm? Its just that I kicked a door, how did I cause trouble?"
Shi Baozi had an expression that said he was ready to take someone to task. He wasnt a bad person, but if you really wanted to get into it with him, he would still be more cunning than us. Cha Wenbin was forced by him until his face turned bright red, and could only huffily say: "You wouldnt understand even if I told you!"
"And, pretending to be a god!" After saying that, he patted his own chest and said: "Im a hero, Im a good guy! Im a counter-revolutionary, Im a scoundrel! I guarantee to Comrade Marx that General Shis red heart will always face the sun, holding on until it shines brightly!" After saying that, he pointed at those coffins and cursed: "You poisonous insects left over from the feudal dynasty, thinking you can avoid the great proletarian revolution by hiding under the eaves of these stinky old houses? I spit on you! Prepare to accept the peoples trial! The great leader Maoism teaches us to overthrow all the evil spirits, to make them never rise again!"
When shouting the last slogan, it was about coordinating with his own movements. The fat man clenched his fists and made a standard Red Guard forward charge action, and then lifted up those 43 yards of big feet and stomped them heavily on the floor...
A loud crash, I dont know if Shi Baozi regretted it at that moment, but I did, I regretted staying with such a jinx.
The floor cracked instantly, and then I felt the ground beneath my feet start to shake violently. I heard the screams of my companions, and then the entire floor of the grand hall collapsed in an instant. The years of neglected wooden structure couldnt withstand such turmoil. All I knew was that when everything finally stopped, there were two egg-sized lumps on my forehead, and Yuan Xiaobai was pressed right against my chest, making it hard for me to breathe.
I dont know where I got the courage from, but I really couldnt take it anymore with that fatty. Under a pile of rubble, I shouted at the top of my lungs: "Shi Baozi, Im going to screw your mother! Whats wrong with you, do you want to bury us all alive and have us meet Marx?"
That fatty is not far from me, I hear his voice saying: "Unexpected, purely unexpected, ah, little Yi, hurry up and help me out, my thigh is being pressed by something..."
"Are the kids still okay?" It was Old Miao, who was now prying up the floorboards that were pressing down on him. Fortunately, the layer below wasnt too deep, and before long, he pulled Cha Wenbin over to our side, and after confirming everything was fine, finally let out a sigh of relief.
"Hurry up, ah, Im going to die from the pain!" The fat guy next door was still yelling, and he was separated from us by a relatively intact wooden board, so we could only hear his voice but not see him.
Below was pitch black, Miao Laos flashlight had fallen four or five meters away and got stuck under a pile of wooden boards. We tried to reach it several times but couldnt. The torches in our hands were also nowhere to be found. Cha Wenbin had a few matches in his pocket, which was a skill taught by his master. He lit one with his mouth, but the flame was too small. I suddenly had an idea and shouted at the fat man next door: "General Shi, its too dark, we cant see you. Why dont you take off your clothes and throw them to me? Well make a torch so we can see clearly and then come to rescue you."
"Ah, whats the point of this? Youre still trying to take my clothes off? Fine, you go ahead!" Before long, I saw a piece of clothing flying over from the direction of the wooden board. Without looking closely, I found a plank in the ruins, tied the clothes onto it and pushed it towards Cha Wenbins fire pit.
"Wait a minute, Xiao Yi, where did this clothes come from?"
He said: "That fat guy is going to take it off."
"This is wrong! This isnt Fatsos clothes, this is a funeral dress! Only dead people wear these!"
"Ah!" I was so scared that I quickly threw away the clothes, but Cha Wenbin wasnt afraid and took them over to wrap around the wood. With a light strike of the fire starter, "Boom" - a big fire started burning. All I could hear was the fat guy next door shouting: "Ahh, brothers, can you hurry up? Ive taken off that guys clothes, now hes starting to take off my pants... please, hurry..."
