  Chapter 22 Curse

  The rickety back looks much shorter than yesterday's hanging corpse, but the face is indeed the one with the tongue stuffed back into the mouth, and the blue face is no different from a normal person at this time.

  He has a heartbeat and breathing, and is a living person.

  The hanging rope was still thrown aside, and the lock on the wooden door was broken.

   Even Xu Huo couldn't believe it. He checked yesterday and found that the person was definitely dead. After a night, he actually came back to life.

  The woodcutter turned a blind eye to them and turned his head to continue chopping wood.

   "Is he a man or a ghost?" Abel held up the cross.

   "It's a person, he has a shadow." Wan Zhikang said hesitantly.

   "I think he is the beheaded demon last night, his grandma's, and he dares to pretend to be a ghost!" Zhang Xiong clenched his fists and wanted to rush over, Huang Junjie frowned and stopped him, and looked at the woodcutter.

  Fu Erdai sneered, picked up a piece of firewood, weighed it, and winked at Liu Yuanyuan, and the two walked towards the woodcutter whose back was facing him.

   "Brother, how long have you lived here?" Suddenly, Xu Huo stepped in from the side, interrupting the two of them talking to the woodcutter.

  The firewood chopper looked back and saw that he was passing the cigarette, hesitated to take it, then lit the cigarette with Xu Huo's lighter, sat on the tree stump and hesitated before saying, "It's been many years since the villa was built here."

   "I think the villa has been around for some time, but no one lives there now. It's boring for you to live here by yourself, and you don't plan to go out for a walk?" Xu Huo sat down next to him.

   "What are you going out for? I haven't gone out with my family before. Now I'm dying of illness and don't have the strength."

  Xu Huo glanced at his neck, "Now that medical technology is advanced, terminal illnesses can be cured."

  The woodcutter pointed to the new grave not far away, "My daughter went there, but she died. The whole family is buried here, and I will be buried here sooner or later."

   "The most important thing is to have a neat family." Xu Huo nodded, "I will live here for a few days. If you die, I will bury you."

  The woodcutter looked at him blankly, and after two seconds he continued, "You guys are here to explore, right? I advise you to leave quickly."

   "Old man, do you know the legend in the villa?" Xia Guo leaned over, "I heard that there is a beheaded demon here, aren't you afraid?"

"What are people afraid of dying?" The woodcutter shook his head, "You young people are so courageous, you dare to do anything for the sake of stimulation, let me tell you, this villa is cursed, anyone who comes for the beheading demon All die."

   "I remember that a few young people came here not long ago, and finally the corpse was taken away by the crematorium."

  There were two sounds of "cuckoo" swallowing saliva, and Xia Guo asked: "Is there no one to care? Why do you ask the crematorium to take it away?"

  The firewood splitter drooped his eyelids, "I can't find my head, and I don't want to go to the crematorium."

"I think you've lived here long enough, so you should know a lot of rumors about beheading demons. Tell us about it." Xu Huo beckoned to Yuan Yao, and gave the firewoodcutter the half pack of cigarettes hidden in his body .

  The woodcutter reluctantly accepted it, as if he didn't see the vigilant eyes of the players, and slowly told the rumors about the Beheaded Demon.

Fifty years ago, when this place was not yet developed, there were still some residents. At that time, the previous owner of the mountain had bought the mountain and wanted to open a leisure villa. Those households refused to leave, and had trouble with the logging workers There was a conflict, and without knowing what happened, one of them hit the axe, and his head and neck were chopped off.

After talking about the compensation, the project that had been put on hold for a period of time was restarted. However, strange things happened frequently after that. It is said that there were more than a dozen people involved in the project, including the workers who participated in the project, the designer, the aunt who cooked the rice, and the driver who drove the food. I have seen a headless figure haunting the neighborhood with an ax in hand.

The former boss hired an expert to do it, and spent a lot of money to build a stone carving town. Unexpectedly, a worker died on the day after the ceremony was finished. It happened to be one of the workers who had a conflict with the deceased, and the body fell on the tree stump. The head was missing.

  Then followed by the second and third, both died in the same way, the body was left there, and the head mysteriously disappeared. When the officials searched the mountain for heads, they saw a black shadow holding an ax and put the rotting heads on his shoulders. However, the fog in the mountains made the shadow disappear in a flash, and only a few heads were found in the end. Rumors that the villa was cursed by a beheaded demon spread like wildfire.

The investigation was in vain. The expert hired by the former boss said that the deceased would only kill people when he was looking for a head. It can be seen that he was not satisfied with other heads. The former boss was quick to think and carved a mask for him, so that the statue with a head but no face would be released. It actually calmed things down.

   Later, the former boss failed in business and sold the villa to the current boss.

  The new boss broke the head of the Beheaded Demon Statue when he was rebuilding the villa. Not long after, a tourist of the villa died in the hot spring. His blood soaked the pool, but his head disappeared.

  The new boss understood the cause and effect, but he couldn’t find the head of the statue. Since then, people died in the villa from time to time, first the guests, then the expert who came to exorcise the demon, and the detectives and police officers who investigated the truth.

So there are rumors that anyone who enters the villa will be cursed by the beheaded demon. The incident is so uproar that no one dares to come here anymore, even the staff resigned. Here come some curious hunters who are not afraid of death.

   "Have you seen those corpses?" Xu Huo touched his neck, "Is it really headless?"

  The woodcutter stared at him sullenly, "Not only do they have no heads, some of them don't even have complete bodies."

   "It's terrible!" Du Lanlan folded her arms and said to Huang Junjie, "You're so lucky."

  The players think so.

With this story, the background of the beheaded demon dungeon that was missing in the game introduction can be considered complete. Since the incident started fifty years ago, it proves that the possibility of this incident being man-made is very small, and there must be supernatural power Intervene inside.

   Besides, this woodcutter looks old, but he was only a few years old fifty years ago. Even if he has been living in the villa, he cannot be a beheader.

  On the contrary, his inexplicable resurrection from the dead proves the existence of supernatural power.

  If it has nothing to do with the beheaded demon, then there is no need to kill him.

  The players exchanged glances and planned to go back.

   "I saw you hanged yesterday." Xu Huo suddenly said again.

   The players, including the woodcutter, turned to stare at him at the same time.

  Xu Huo smiled and put out the cigarette butt, "Aren't you surprised why you were locked in the wooden house?"

   "People who are obviously dead come back to life, how did you do it?"

  The players present not only admired his boldness, but also looked at the woodcutter curiously. Perhaps the resurrection of the NPC is the key to their fight against the Beheaded Demon!

  The woodcutter suddenly became angry, "Nonsense, what resurrection of the dead! I said that I would be locked up in the room because I slept soundly. It turned out to be you bastards, get out!"

   "Patient, don't be so angry," Xu Huo stood up and said lazily, "It's not worthwhile to be so angry."

  The woodcutter raised his axe, "Go away!"
