The Tale of the Ghost Eyes Chapter 66 The Unrotten Baby Corpse (1)

Absolutely, it might be out illusion because of fear. But the old crow was indeed ferocious.

The old crow was flying over the mountain. Zhao Jie and I were frightened to stoop. However, Shang Haoming became so brave that he picked up one stone to throw towards the old crow. Although he didn't hit the old crow, the old crow was frightened.

"Croak..."

After the old crow croaked, it clapped its wings and flied away.

Shang Haoming looked back and said to me and Zhao Jie, "Why are you scared? It is an old crow. My grandma told me to throw stones towards them, because its croak can call on bad things. We throw stones to expel the bad thing."

Zhao Jie and I picked up one stone, throwing towards the direction of the old crows, yet we were late to do that. But we hopped it would work.

After we threw stones, we kept silent. The cries came out of the col. However, the cries became peaceful. It was like a baby's cry. There was not bad feeling inside the voice.

We never so scared. Absolutely, it was because that we got used of this voice. After all, the baby just cried, and it never hurt us.

I looked at the col and I said, "Should we go under the col."

Since I pretend to be brave, I would continue to be brave. Master Liu said I had something to protect me last time when I went under the grave with Master Liu. I thought my treasure would be helpful when I would meet Red ghost or the baby ghost.

After Zhao Jie heard my words, he was against me. But Shang Haoming became braver. He said directly, "Xiao Yong, I will follow you. I never meet ghosts before. I will be regretful if I just hear the voice instead of seeing its look."

I said Shang Haoming was not less curious than me.

However, Zhao Jie said, "Fine, I can accompany with you. We should die together."

"Knock on wood. Zhao Jie, don't say that. Do you forget I had learned from Master Liu?" I said to Zhao Jie angrily.

Although we decided to make it clear in the col, we became hesitated when we were about to start off. In fact, we were scared. And it was really difficult to clear away the thistles and thorns by hands.

Therefore, we went to find a locus tree, picking up a dry branch. And then I used it to clear away the thistles and thorns.

I brought them to here. Therefore, I decided to lead the way. Shang Haoming follows me. And the last one was Zhao Jie.

We should be careful when we were walking in the col, because the slope was steep. If we are careless, we would fall down along the thistles and thorns. Even if I would not die, I would hurt.

Although I have simple tool in my hand, it was difficult to continue to go. After dozens of meters, our hands were hurt. I wanted to go back when I see these hurts.

If we went down, we would be bloody.

Human beings were hesitated. Therefore, the curiousness and ambition supported us to continue to go.

We were experienced when we continued to go. Although the thorns were dense, I didn't feel hurt. Therefore, we walked along the thorns. Although we walked a long way, we need hurt by the thorns.

Therefore, we went to the col quickly. And the col was deep and dark. It was filled with sands, weeds and stones. However, we didn't find the corpse of the baby.

However, the col was not small. We began to search at the entrance. After several steps, we found black feathers. It might be left by the old crow.

However, we found nothing in the vicinity of its feathers.

After we walked forward, we found a big puddle which took up several square meters. It was cool. And there were several scorpions inside, creeping in the grass.

The winter was almost over. It was seldom to see active scorpions.

Soon, we found the source of puddle. There was a small mouth of the spring. It was normal to see the mouth of the spring in my village. Therefore, many streams were in the col. When it was rainy, there were fish and shrimps in the streams.

Therefore, we were not surprised to see the water.

To my surprise, there was a colorful cloth. It must be used to make cotton-padded trousers of baby.

We became nervous. That was to say, we were close to something we wanted to know.

"Ah..." At that time, cries spread out of the col suddenly. According to the direction, it should be in front of us. There was an echo. Others voice came from many direction, except the first cries. I could not know the direction.

Zhao Jie said, "Xiao Yong, it is so horrible. Can we go back? We will arrive at the wilds along the deeper col. We might meet wolves and wild pigs even if we never meet ghosts."

At that time, Shang Haoming kept silent. It was estimated that his braveness and curiousness disappeared because of the horrible scene.

I said in a low voice, "Keep going. If we find nothing, we can go back."

"Ss..."

At that time, a grey shadow came out of the grass. And then it jumped towards the slope. Ah, it was a rabbit.

However, we were frightened by the rabbit at the same time. We screamed out and jumped far away from it.

Zhao Jie said stutteringly, "R...r...rabbit!"

We were almost frightened to death, because we were bothered by surrounding voices and rabbits. I was sure that we would break down if we continued to seek the baby. Therefore, I said, "Let's go back."

Zhao Jie and Shang Haoming immediately agreed with me. So we began to run away. The cries became louder as soon as I ran away. And the cries became angry, sad.

We were almost broken down. I ran way regardless of the feeling of the cries. Soon we arrived at the entrance. And then we climbed up along the road which was cleared away by us.

However, the slope was steep. We were exhausted. And then we climbed up slowly. However, the cries behind us became louder. We were shivering. Therefore, we climbed up much slowly.

Therefore, we found we just claimed for eight meters.

At That time, I looked back to the col. I screamed out. I almost fell down. When I was climbing up, a baby in ragged clothes was crying and flooding us. And his face was hurt. One eyeball disappeared. There was black air coming from his eyes.

The bone of his little hand was exposed. And I could see the bone under the neck clearly.

After Zhao Jie and Shang Haoming heard my screams, they were frightened. And then they looked back. They screamed out loudly. And then they tied their best to climb up. Obviously, they saw that.

That was to say, it was no like the invincible spirit. It was entity. The horrible corpse was real...

I felt more scared to see the baby, because Master Liu said the ghosts hurt people by illusion. But the corpse of the baby would bite us.

When we thought about that, we climbed quickly regardless of the thistles and thorns and hurts on our bodies. But my speed was not fast. So the corpse was closer to us.

He was crying and creeping slowly. He was like a baby. He dared not to touch the thistles and thorns, because I saw thistles and thorns sticking his eyes. But he still got close to us.

In the end, the thorns took away the whites of his eyes.

After we saw this seemed, we felt it disgusting, horrible...

Were we eaten by the little baby? When I thought about that, I reminded of my treasure. So I calmed down and said, "Don't be scared. We have treasures. He dared not to get close to us."

Shang Haoming encouraged himself to wave the copper towards the corpse after he heard my words.

The corpse didn't creep forward anymore. However, it stayed at the same place, crying loudly.

"Wow..."

The cries were sad...
