Volume 7 Chapter 37 The Swamp Demon Realm (Part 1)
After Muyoubing finished speaking, none of us understood what he meant for a while. Several people were stunned, and when they reacted, I felt inexplicable: everyone said that the corpse had been dead for a long time, so how could it suddenly become Ning’s corpse?
Several people were very confused, and A Ning frowned, not knowing what Mian Youping meant by that.
Mian Youping didn’t pay any attention to our looks, but carefully removed the bracelet from the hand bone of the corpse I had just seen and handed it to A Ning, making a look at her.
A Ning inexplicably took it, looked at Mian Youping, and then looked at the bracelet. At first, her expression was very puzzled, but when her eyes fell on the bracelet, her face changed after a few seconds, and she became pale.
We were watching from the side, and when we saw her expression, cold sweat came down. We thought to ourselves, “This is not right. What kind of expression is this? The fat guy asked without thinking, ”What? Is this corpse really yours?”
A-Ning didn’t say anything, but when she turned to look at us, her face had already turned a little pale. She handed us the bottle of oil and then held out her right hand in front of us.
On her left hand, Aning was wearing a bracelet made of copper coins. I had noticed this when I was in Hainan. When we got lost in the Devil City, the bracelet was used as a marker and was pressed under the stones. There were seven coins in total, all of which were ten-cent coins minted by the Anqing Copper Bureau in Anhui. At the time, I joked with her that this might be the most valuable marker in the world. She told me that the reason she chose to make a bracelet out of these coins was because there was absolutely no way that there could be a second bracelet like this in the world.
Because of this conversation, when she put her hand and the bracelet on the female corpse in front of me, I knew what she was trying to do.
I quickly took a closer look at the bracelet taken from the corpse. I hadn’t looked closely at it when I first saw it, but now I saw that the bracelet was bound together by copper rust. When I pushed away the surface of the copper mud, I found that there were indeed several rotten copper coins inside, all with the four characters “Guangxu Yuanbao” on them.
At first I didn’t believe it, but when I broke it open a little more, I saw the Manchu characters inside, and I was shocked. I looked up at Aning.
“There’s no need to look. They’re just ten-cent coins,“ said Aning to me. ‘There are seven of them.’
”This…” I was speechless. I thought to myself, how could this be?
The female corpse was also wearing seven ten-cent coins on her hand… However, ten-cent coins are very rare. The seven ten-cent coins in Aning’s hand were collected by her little by little over a period of ten years. Not to mention the possibility of such a coincidence in thinking, just the rarity of the copper coins alone makes it unlikely to explain this incident… It is not very likely that a woman would have the idea of making a bracelet out of ten-coin copper coins, and that she would also have the financial resources and channels to buy seven copper coins, and that she would also be a field worker and come here to discover the corpse for us.
Such a thing is not confusing, but it is simply impossible to happen…
The others still didn’t understand what was going on, so I told them about the preciousness of the copper coins. After I finished, they still didn’t understand. Pan Zi said, “That’s two strings of the same copper coin chain. Maybe it’s a coincidence. There are a lot of fake coins like this.”
Muyoubing looked at Ning and shook his head.
“Then what is going on?” Pan Zi smiled wryly: “This is unreasonable. Could it be that the young lady standing in front of us is a ghost? Did she die here more than ten years ago?”
Pan Zi said, looking at Ning and laughing, but after only two laughs, he couldn’t laugh anymore. Then, his face changed, and he stood up immediately to reach for the knife in his hand.
I was puzzled, wondering what was going on. I turned to look at Ning, and when I saw her, I almost fainted.
I saw Ning’s face in the rain, and I didn’t know what had changed. Her face seemed to melt and twist, her eyes staring out in a strange way, and her mouth was stretched at an impossible angle, revealing a mouth full of tiny fangs.
My brain “buzzed” and I yelled in my heart, “Fuck!” I reached for my dagger in my waist like lightning, and at the same time I retreated to the side, trying to keep as far away from her as possible.
In the panic, I forgot that I was in a tree, and when I retreated, I stepped on nothing. In just a moment, I fell.
I suddenly felt a sharp contraction in my whole body, and I thought to myself, “It’s over. This time I won’t die, but I’ll be seriously injured. I hurriedly grabbed at the branches around me with my hands, but I didn’t grab anything. At this moment, someone grabbed my belt. I felt a sharp pain in my waist, and I almost broke my neck.
The person holding me pulled me up. I looked back to see who had saved me. I saw that it was Ning, who was drooling and holding my belt.
This was really going to kill me. In a panic, I realized that if I let her pull me up, I might not survive. If I fell, I might have a chance of survival. I hurriedly untied my belt, but the belt was wrapped around my stomach and I couldn’t untie it. My scalp was swollen, and I pulled hard. As I pulled, I heard someone say, “Wake up, wake up, what the hell are you dreaming about?”
