Chapter 223: Encoffining
When Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe checked the corpse earlier, he noticed that there seemed to be something wrong with these prison guards killed by ghosts. The eyes, ears, mouth, nose, limbs, and body of the corpse, every part looked at separately was incomparably normal, but together they looked wrong, and there was a strange abnormal feeling.
Now he knew where the abnormality was.
Those corpses were completely reversed left and right. After this prison guard named Cao Huabin died, the bangs that were originally combed to the left became to the right, just like a person reflected in a mirror. At first glance, everything was right, but if you look carefully, nothing was right.
The human body is not symmetrical. Almost everyone's body has some subtle differences between the left and right sides, such as the dominant right hand being thicker than the left hand, the left eye being slightly deeper than the right eye, one breast being larger than the other... In daily life, even the person himself doesn't notice these subtle differences, and no one cares.
Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe keenly noticed the changes on the corpses killed by ghosts, but he couldn't determine the source of this abnormal feeling at the first time. Now he determined it, but the rope on the ghost had been untied.
"If the rule of that ghost is 'inversion,' how does it kill people?" Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe picked up the telescope again, looking at the ventilation duct on the wall of the second floor of the opposite building.
"Inversion" is a very ambiguous concept. Left and right are inversion, up and down are inversion, so what about life and death?
There is also the most important question: under what circumstances will that ghost's "inversion" rule be triggered?
Sitting here and not moving will not get the answer. Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe put the telescope back into his pocket, took off his travel bag, and took out two mouse-sized cameras from it.
Flying to the roof of the water room, Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe installed a camera next to the swallow nest under the eaves, facing the basketball court downstairs. The other one was placed on the top of the high wall, facing the ventilation duct on the wall of the cell.
The Chenyu Valley Prison, which was pulled into the strange world, had been disconnected from the outside world, and it was impossible to directly access the surveillance screen of the camera through the internet. Most of the recorded footage could only be viewed locally by accessing the port.
As for the prison's own surveillance system, it must have been destroyed by Fenwu long ago.
After setting up the two cameras, Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe crossed the closed factory aisle and jumped down to the ground.
Leaning against a wall, he poked his head out to look. Not far away was the entrance of the cell door where several corpses lay in a mess. The street light at the entrance was still on, and there was a large pool of bright red blood on the steps directly under the street light. That was left by the ghost.
"The ghost is inside, and may crawl out at any time." Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe leaned against the wall, took a deep breath: "Go over and re-check the corpses quickly. Can't stay too long. If there is any sign of something wrong, run away immediately."
He must go even if he knows there is danger. The world is shrinking, and he has no other choice. Every second of time now is precious.
Okay, let's go.
Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe walked out from behind the wall and walked quickly to the bottom of the steps. The prison guard's corpse lay motionless in front, not far away. He could reach it in two more steps.
A shocking sense of crisis suddenly welled up in his heart. Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe stopped his footsteps, looked up, and saw a thin, hunched figure squatting in the shadow above the street light, a pair of red eyes staring at him motionless.
The rich smell of blood drifted over, mixed with the faint smell of corpse, becoming a disgusting smell.
Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe lowered his body, and the boy's fair, slender hands turned into a pair of bright yellow claws with pink meat pads. A spotted tiger more than three meters long appeared at the prison gate, biting the neck of a prison guard closest to him with a bloody mouth.
Without any hesitation, Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe, who turned into a spotted tiger, lowered his head, picked up a corpse, turned, and ran.
At the same time, the ghost squatting above the street light jumped down.
Two figures, one in front and one behind, one fleeing and one chasing. The wide skeleton of the feline and the strong muscles full of explosive power gave Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe unparalleled strength. Even with a corpse of an adult male in his mouth, he still ran very fast.
Behind Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe, the corpse possessed by the ghost crawled on all fours, with its belly facing the sky, crawling at high speed in a terrifying posture like a spider, following closely behind the tiger. The skin on Old Li's palms had long been worn out by the rough cement ground. Every time the forelimbs landed, he left a bright red blood handprint on the ground, extending from the cell gate to
The tireless vengeful ghost followed closely behind Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe like a shadow, only a few meters away. No matter where he ran, the nauseating smell of blood and corpse stench always lingered at the tip of his nose. From time to time, the sticky sound of mangled flesh and hoarse low growls came from behind, as if a persistent vengeful ghost was following right by his ear, saying: I am following you.
Turning a corner, Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe, with the prison guard's corpse in his mouth, looked back. That eerie humanoid spider was clinging to the windowsill by the side of the road, its eyes blood-red, still staring fixedly at him.
Ghosts do not know fatigue, ghosts do not die or perish; once targeted by a ghost, one cannot shake it off.
Fortunately, his original goal was not to shake off this ghost while carrying the corpse.
"Leading it here should be enough." Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe loosened his mouth and threw the corpse he was holding onto the ground. With a shake of his tiger body, the three-meter-long variegated tiger instantly turned into a bee. It flapped its wings, passed through the gap in the drain cover, buzzed into the drainage ditch, and disappeared.
The humanoid spider with its belly facing the sky crawled to the drain, the expression on its hideous face twisted, stiff, and eerie.
On the other side, a bee flew out from the drain by the prison wall. Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe returned to the main entrance of the prison, where several corpses lay scattered about. He casually picked up a dead body, and with his other hand, drew a dagger from his waist.
Comparing the appearance of the dead body with the ID photo on its work badge, Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe confirmed his previous speculation: these corpses had indeed been "reversed" left to right.
Was this kind of reversal limited only to the surface? Or would it affect deeper places?
Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe held the dagger and sliced open the corpse's chest. With an expressionless face, he pried open the ribs and saw the blood-stained lungs and heart inside the blood-stained chest cavity.

The lungs were on the left, and the heart was on the right.
"It is not a surface reversal, but the entire human body structure, completely inverted from the inside out."
Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe used the corpse's clothes to wipe the blood off the blade, then closed the wound of the corpse he had dissected, buttoned the clothes back up, and gave the deceased a little basic dignity.
Today is suitable for 【Encoffining】; tidying up the appearance of the deceased can improve one's own luck. If one buries the deceased after tidying them up, it can improve it even more, because 【Burial】 is also a thing suitable to be done today.
But 【Relocating a Grave】 is not.
Taking advantage of the fact that the ghost had not yet crawled back, Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe washed his hands under the faucet, and the young man's figure faded into the night, disappearing from sight.
As if to verify Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe's thoughts, at the same time outside the prison, a thin figure quietly appeared under an unremarkable big tree.
Fen Wu lowered his head, looking with great interest at the wooden stick stuck in the ground, the police cap covering the ground, and the work badge hanging on the stick.
"This is, a cenotaph?"
Why would Yu Zi Qian want to set up a cenotaph here for the dead prison guard? Out of kindness?
No, Gridders do not do meaningless things. He must have a reason for doing this, and that reason is very likely...
"Today is suitable for burial."
