"I just walked around the whole village. I found a strange point. Every house has at most one old person to live in," Hu Bing narrowed his eyes, his expression very solemn.

Jin Hong also nodded, looking a little excited, "Yes, what's even stranger is that there is no woman in this village at all!" Speaking of this, her body could not help but tremble, she is the only woman in the whole team Moreover, the last dead Zhang Xiaojun was also a woman!

If this is the case, then her present situation is very dangerous!

Ma Hang nodded, and said nervously, "I also found a strange point when I just went to see it. Like ordinary people's homes, especially small towns and rural areas, the lobby of every household will be put to death. Ancestors photos! But I did n’t have the ones I just looked at !!! And I also noticed that there are n’t even graves here! So where are the dead people buried? "

Ma Chengcheng didn't say a word from beginning to end, did not participate in their discussions, and even looked a bit gloomy.

Huang Ke walked pale from the gate, sweating and sweating, even shaking his hands, feeling that his legs would soften and kneel in the next second.

Hu Bing frowned, struck his thigh, and went straight up, grabbing his arm before he let him fall.

"What's wrong?" Jin Hong was startled by Huang Ke's expression and asked quickly.

Huang Ke's throat moved, and the whole person was as frightened as he was. He gasped for two breaths and recovered, and his voice was a little slack, "I just saw those people eating ..."

He didn't say it completely, but everyone understood what he meant.

Huang Ke seemed to be crying, "And the village head! I saw it! The body of the village head was also eaten by them!"

! ! !

That all makes sense!

No wonder his body disappeared out of thin air!

Hu Bing thought left and right, let go of Huang Ke, his eyes turned, his expression was extremely serious.

No, no! There are still some things that cannot be explained at all!

How did the village chief die? Why can't they walk out of this village?

too weird! Not at all artificial!

Thinking of this, Hu Bing paused, "I think we missed a very important point!"

Everyone looked at him.

"That's where we live now!" Hu Bing narrowed his eyes and explained, "The house we live in is the village head's house. On the day we came, he had a key that clearly assigned us a room, and We were warned not to go to the second floor! Is it! "

Jin Hong and Ma Hang nodded quickly.

"So we haven't observed this house here in the past few days! No one has ever visited the second floor!" Hu Bing glanced at everyone's expressions and said solemnly, "I think if you want to explore the truth of this village! We must start from this house! "

Xiao Chen sat down against the wall, his eyes drooping, and Liu Hai half-covered his eyes. He also had gloves on his hands, his expression was light, and he seemed unintentional to participate in their conversation.

He suddenly felt a itch in his palm, like someone was writing on it with his index finger, Xiao Chen was stunned, carefully felt the touch of the palm, and tried to discern the words.

'go with. ’

Xiao Chen was stunned.

Hu Bing was planning to assign the task, pointed to Ma Hang, and hadn't waited for a voice, Xiao Chen suddenly stood up and looked at him, his expression was still faint, and his voice was also very clean, "I will go too."

Ma Chengcheng immediately raised his head when he heard Xiao Chen's voice, with a complex look in his eyes that could not hide. At the moment when Xiao Chen's eyes swept a little, he bowed his head in panic again.

Hu Bing glanced at Xiao Chen and Ma Chengcheng again, not knowing what he was thinking, and nodded, "OK, everyone go together!"

The staircase of this house is a ladder made of old wooden materials, with a thick layer of ash piled on it. There is even mildew on the handrails. The board does not look very firm and crooked.

A person will make a "creak" sound when stepping on it for a while.

Xiao Chen walked behind, the last one was Huang Ke, and there was a safe distance between them.

Xiao Chen turned around and glanced at Huang Ke, wondering why there was an indescribable sense of disobedience.

There are only two rooms on the second floor, but each room has a lock. This is a very old lock with an iron chain. The wall on the second floor is also cracked, and even black. Before they even set their feet on the second floor, they could even smell a very strange musty smell. The smell of dead fish.

Hu Bing and Ma Hang looked at each other and pushed the door vigorously. The result was obvious and could not be opened.

Hu Bing waved his hand, beckoning everyone back, intending to break in.

But despite the old doors, they were surprisingly strong, and no matter how they kicked or even smashed with a chair, they couldn't hurt anything.

"Damn." Ma Hang scolded, looking anxious.

Jin Hong and Huang Ke were also anxious.

Hu Bing frowned, and his brain began to search for clues.

Just as everyone had no choice but to plan another way out, Xiao Chen seemed to feel something was pulling his hand to the door.

Xiao Chen followed this feeling and walked to the door.

He glanced at the crowd, and looked at his palm again, blinked, and tentatively put his hand on the door handle.

"Kap." The iron chain fell apart instantly.

The door opened.

"......"

"......"

There was silence.

Ma Hang looked a little unbelievable, strode forward, picked up the iron chain that fell to the ground, and even pulled his mouth to bite with his teeth, but only a layer of rust could be bitten out.

He yucked, opened his eyes wide, looked at Xiao Chen's hands and arms, and looked at him like a monster.

Jin Hong opened his mouth, apparently not yet relieved from the picture just now.

Hu Bing responded quickly, and went straight up, glanced at Xiao Chen, intending to open the door.

Xiao Chen didn't make a sound and retreated to the side.

He felt something leaning against his shoulder, and rubbed his neck intimately.

Jin Hong followed Hu Bing's footsteps and planned to go in. He walked to the door and just screamed when he saw what was inside.

Ma Hang, who was standing next to her, was startled by her cry, and the whole figure trembled.

Hu Bing was the first to see clearly what it looked like. His face was a little ugly, and even pale.

There was no furniture in the whole room. There were straw mats on the floor and moldy spots on the walls. After opening the door, the smell was more intense, but there were four corpses on the floor!

These corpses are not complete, most of them are piecemeal, but it seems that someone purposely put together the shape of the bones to make a human figure, and the corpse has been almost completely eroded.

Jin Hong forced herself to calm down, patted her chest, and tried to make her heart rate lower. She pulled Hu Bing's sleeves and walked in. She carefully observed the body and said, "It's a man, A woman, an old lady and an old man. "

Hu Bing raised her eyebrows and looked at her.

Jin Hong didn't hide, "I study medicine!"

"Well, isn't this the village head's family?" Ma Hang covered his mouth and nose and exclaimed when he heard Jin Hong's words.

The answer is obvious.

"Did they be killed by the village chief?" Ma Hang raised his head, his pupils quaked, and looked at the crowd, looking like he was looking for a sense of identity.

Jin Hong calmly analyzed, "They may have been eaten by the village head!"

Hu Bing was a little silent, and it seemed that he accepted Jin Hong's opinion, but his anger could be seen in his eyebrows. Finally, he turned around and looked at the crowd, "Have you heard of the 'Witt effect'?"

Xiao Chen's footsteps stopped at the door. Surprisingly, when he heard Hu Bing's words, he made a noise, "The Witt effect is taken from the work of the German writer Goethe" The trouble of young Witt ". The ending is The protagonist's suicide ended. After the announcement, it even triggered a wave of suicide across Europe, so this effect is called the Witt effect. "Xiao Chen's voice was faint, and his eyes met Hu Bing's eyes.

Hu Bing nodded and said calmly, "Robert Theodore's" Influence "mentioned" the principle of social identity ", which distinguishes individual consciousness from collective consciousness, that is, when people are in a same belief , Value, behavior-oriented environment, collective behavior will affect individuals, this principle is consistent with the Witt effect! "

He paused with a solemn expression, "According to this principle, we can analyze these unreasonable behaviors in this village, because in their collective consciousness, cannibalism has become the norm in their lives!"
