Chapter 147: Dead or Alive

There was no color on Chen Leehom's face, and he was so shocked by the situation in front of him that he was a little incoherent: "This, this place is so strange, let's go out first!"

"Once you've come, let it be." Cheng Ranmo slowly walked towards the coffin. For him, the most threatening people in the world were S-level ghosts.

"Calm down! That's a coffin for the dead!" Chen Leehom wanted to grab Cheng Ranmo, but was held back by Zhang Xingyang next to him.

"This matter is fishy, ​​we should be cautious." Zhang Xingyang quickly advised: "We still listen to Captain Cheng for the time being."

Cheng Ranmo's knowledge is broader than theirs. They can question his behavior, but they cannot act rashly.

"The five rooms the old lady mentioned are five coffins, but she is not a human being. To her, the coffins are home." Cheng Ranmo looked calm, as if he had expected it.

"You should be able to understand what I said." Cheng Ranmo waved to the few people huddled behind, "Don't let these messy things disturb you, come here."

Luo Xiaoxiong looked confused, while Chen Leehom and Zhang Xingyang breathed a sigh of relief.

Only Xu Bai's expression didn't change much. Although she didn't want to sleep in the coffin, the person in charge was Cheng Ranmo.

The five of them walked to the coffin together and looked at it.

These coffins were rough in workmanship, coated with a dark-brown substance, and exuded a dull odor.

"Is this corpse odor?" Xu Bai covered his nose and looked at Cheng Ranmo.

"The corpse smell is much worse than this. It should just be the smell of rotting wood." Cheng Ranmo analyzed, and after speaking, he held the coffin lid with both hands.

Xu Bai took a step back nervously: "What do you want to do?"

"Open the library." As soon as Cheng Ranmo finished speaking, he pushed the coffin lid open little by little with both hands.

"You don't really want to sleep with a few coffins in this place all night, do you?" Xu Bai looked at the slightly opened coffin with a somewhat resistant expression on his face.

"Let's take a look at the situation first." Cheng Ranmo pushed the coffin lid halfway and looked inside.

Seeing this, Xu Bai stood on tiptoes and took a look.

Seeing a shroud placed at the bottom of the coffin, she couldn't help but frown: "Why is the shroud in this village so bright red?"

"Yeah, I find it strange too. There are white paper lanterns hanging on the door and white blessings on them, but the shroud is festive red. This village doesn't seem to be for living people."

Chen Leehom and Zhang Xingyang gathered around the coffin, looking at the red shroud in the coffin, feeling a little embarrassed.

Luo Xiaoxiong didn't dare to step forward at all, he just wanted to predict whether there would be danger later.

Fortunately, he firmly grasped the jade pendant around his neck and controlled his impulse.

While several people were hesitating, "Peng!" sounded.

The sudden sound startled the three of them.

It turned out that Cheng Ranmo had already pushed open the lids of the other coffins.

There were five sets of bright red shrouds in the five coffins, and the light of the mobile phone flashed, as if blood was oozing from the bottom of the coffin.

"The sizes are all different, and the workmanship is also different. There are men and women, maybe a family of five." Xu Bai stood in front of the coffin: "What I want to ask is, the family's coffin is here, the shroud is here, and the body

Where have you gone?" She tilted her head and asked doubtfully.

"Could it be that the person is not dead yet, but the custom in some places is to prepare a coffin for oneself before death." After Zhang Xingyang finished speaking, he felt like he didn't believe it.

After Xu Bai heard this, a smile flashed in his eyes, he touched his chin and said, "Do you think the owner of the house will come back tonight? What will happen if they come back and see us here?"

She said it casually at first, but Chen Leehom and the others felt a chill creeping into their hearts.

"It's not a good time to come back. I caught him and asked about the situation in this village." Cheng Ranmo spoke from behind.

"In this way, Captain Chen, you lurk under the window sill, and Captain Zhang, you hide next to the third coffin. I've already seen it, and this place is just right to block the opponent's sight."

"Xu Bai and Luo Xiaoxiong stand behind the door." Cheng Ranmo directed in an orderly manner.

He himself walked to the crack in the door and looked at the small courtyard outside. After making sure that there was nothing abnormal outside, he said: "Everyone, let's take a rest. We are tired from running all the way."

"Okay, then Team Chen and I will take turns for an hour each." After Zhang Xingyang finished speaking, Chen Leehom also nodded: "Yes, this way everyone can get a rest."

"No need." Cheng Ranmo looked away from the crack in the door.

In the courtyard that was just normal, several lights and shadows like a lake suddenly appeared.

He glanced at the people in the room who were getting ready, then reached out and touched the big fat hair in Xu Bai's backpack.

Da Fei sensed the crisis and instinctively wanted to run for his life, but unfortunately he said: "Keep your voice down, they are coming."

Zhang Xingyang and Chen Leehom stopped talking at the same time. They held their breath and hid.

On the dark long street, a faint cold light kept approaching.

"What it is?"

The pale light stopped outside the gate and shone along the crack of the door into the yard.

"Creak!" The door was pushed open.

Everyone continued to watch, but found that there was nothing outside the house, not a single person could be seen on the street, and it was so quiet that it didn't look like a village.

The only change they can make is to add a white paper lantern at the door of the room.

When Xu Bai and the others entered the courtyard, there was no such thing on the courtyard door.

In this strange village, white paper lanterns seem to have a special meaning.

"They're coming in."

The white paper lanterns shed pale light all over the ground. Although there was no one in the yard, three shadows, two tall and one short, were reflected on the ground.

They were wandering around in the yard, seemingly unaware of the few outsiders entering the house.

The dark wind blew and the door closed automatically, when the pale light disappeared outside the door.
