Chapter 2: The Mysterious Village (11) Human Skin Envelope Sohu Read Book Digging for a better look at Sohu

  I crept up to the front of the deserted grave, carefully observing this thing, but unexpectedly discovered that the soil around the deserted grave had an unusual color. What made me feel strange was that the surface soil was black, which is normal, but after digging about an inch, the soil color suddenly turned purple, and another inch or so deeper, the soil color turned blood red, and another foot or so deeper, the soil color turned cyan green, and with each layer, I felt the soil layer becoming more solid. The final cyan green soil layer was as hard as rock, and when I used force, the knife broke into two pieces.

  I held the remaining half of the knife handle, slowly digging forward bit by bit. After this layer of soil was opened, I surprisingly saw a red coffin. The red color of this coffin was eerie, like flowing blood, and the tip of the knife had already been deeply embedded in the coffin.

  "At that time, I immediately understood that it must be the strange coffin that brought bad luck. So I got up and ran back home to get a hoe or an iron shovel to dig it open. But just as I reached the door, I heard my daughter screaming inside the house."

  I gripped the half dagger in my hand, kicked open the door and rushed into the room. Only to see Hongying lying on the bed, hugging her shoulders and shouting, but Jin Douzi was nowhere to be seen.

  "I hastily asked: 'What's going on? Where is Jindou?' My daughter was now pale with pain, her lips bitten through. She said that a hairy monster had jumped in from the window and taken the child away in an instant, and she had been injured by the monster while desperately protecting the child. At this moment, I suddenly felt as if the flesh on my shoulder had been cut open with a knife."

  She said that, and I knew it must be the work of that monster. But I didn't dare to continue with the idea of hitting the coffin anymore. Tang Jun was not in the house at this time, where did he go? At that time, I couldn't take care of so much, just worrying about Jin Douzi's whereabouts. Until evening, Tang Jun came back, his face worried and said that he followed the monster rushing out, searched the entire mountain, but still didn't find any news of his son.

  "In the following days, all sorts of strange noises kept coming, but I and Tang Jun stayed in our daughter's room, moving that jar into her room. No matter how chaotic it was outside, I refused to leave the room half a step."
