Chapter 068

Shen Manlian took a few steps back until his back came into contact with a cold wall. Stammered, "Why are you eyeing me again, Miss Tang, can my unlucky temperament really attract ghosts?" ”

Tang Jiuyue looked around, "There are no ghosts in this world. ”

"And what do we see hidden in the mist?"

Tang Jiuyue glanced at her contemptuously and did not answer.

"Tick-"

"Tick-"

There was already a lot of water vapor in this damp and foggy cave, and it was normal for the water vapor in the air to condense on the walls of the cave, and the top part dripped down the protruding rocks. But---Shen Man wiped the water stains on his forehead, and felt a little sticky and fishy, needless to say, according to the usual scary routine, this must be blood. Shen Man rubbed the corner of his clothes, hoping to get rid of this slimy liquid, Tang Jiuyue hated dirty, if she was found to have these things on her hands, she might not hold her hand later.

"Tick-" Another drop fell on Ding Lou's head impartially, and then slowly flowed down his forehead. If it weren't for Ding Lou's eyes still rolling, and the person was still standing, Shen Man would have thought that this person was dead.

Ding Lou wiped the blood from his forehead, and then made a jaw-dropping gesture for Shen Man. He lowered his head slightly and stared at the blood on his fingertips for a moment, then lowered his head as if he couldn't help but be attracted, and his hand rose at the same time, and then he greedily stretched out his tongue, and was about to lick the bright red blood!

"Smack-" Tang Jiuyue didn't know when she had walked over, raised her hand high, and then simply slapped Ding Lou neatly. It's obviously beating people, but there's no violence at all.

The corners of Ding Lou's mouth slowly overflowed with blood, and just now, Shen Man felt pain for him.

"What are you doing?!"

"What are you doing?" Tang Jiuyue's voice was cold, "Do you want to drink human blood?" ”

Ding Lou was shocked, looked up, and his pupils suddenly dilated. "This ...... It's ......"

Shen Mangang was about to look up, but he heard Tang Jiuyue say softly and gently, "Xiaoman, don't look up." Shen Man then listened, and continued to just glance ahead, looking at Tang Jiuyue.

On the top of their heads, there is a recessed circular top, which here suddenly grows larger because of the depression at the top. It is inlaid with colorful gemstones, like a starry sky, with a large yellow agate stone in the middle to symbolize the sun, and a slightly smaller crescent-shaped gem on the other side should be the moon.

But what shocked and frightened Ding Lou was not these brilliant jewel starry sky, but the densely packed corpses in the center around the circular depression! These were men of all ages, dressed in all sorts of clothes, some of whom had rotted reads; Some people not only have rotten clothes, but also their bodies have rotted and given birth to bugs. Their backs were attached to the round, recessed wall, in a circle around the jeweled starry sky.

The deaths were horrible, some opened their mouths, some had round eyes, and all of them looked frightened. And what's even weirder is that these corpses, like the hanging corpses below, don't have arms!

There is a groove under their feet, this groove is like a track for transporting blood, gathering blood in the middle of a vessel, and then this vessel is now hanging above the heads of Shen Man and the others, the fog in the hole is very large, and the vessel is already full, so some blood overflows and drips on people's bodies.

Shen Man didn't look up after hearing Tang Jiuyue's words, so it wasn't enough to be frightened by the scene above his head. But gradually, the thick fog in front of her seemed to come alive, making her joke, and it was faintly reflected in the scene overhead. Shen Man's lips trembled, he walked to Tang Jiuyue's side and grabbed her sleeve, and asked, "What's on it?" ”

Tang Jiuyue was obviously stunned for a moment, but since Shen Man saw her, he would be even more frightened if he didn't explain. "It's a spell."

"Spells?" Shen Man muttered, "I look like some kind of sacrifice. She remembered that when she was in Chenzhou, she had also been spelled by Lian Yi, and she almost made a sacrifice. According to today's form, the spells in this cave are far greater than what they have encountered, and they are far more vicious than those they have encountered. "Some of the people up there seem to have been dead for a long time, but the blood we just saw is still fresh, isn't-"

Ding Lou's pupils shrank suddenly, and he found a cliff that was easy to climb and climbed it with his bare hands, standing on one of the broken stone pillars. The pillar was still some distance from the human sacrifices that had died, but it was better to see inside than from below. He squinted his eyes and searched for a while, and finally his eyes were fixed, his lips were pursed tightly, and a sentence burst out from between his teeth, "The elder is also here......"

Shen Man finally couldn't help but look up at his voice, but he didn't want a pair of cool hands to cover his eyes at this moment, Shen Man thought for a moment, and couldn't say the feeling, "Miss Tang, I'll take a look." ”

"It won't help you if you look at it, you don't need to see such a thing." Tang Jiuyue's voice was indifferent, revealing a hint of displeasure.

Shen Man reluctantly gave up and said, "Okay, I promise you won't watch it." ”

Tang Jiuyue withdrew her hand at this time. She looked at the figure crouching at the top of the pillar, and her heart was a little gloomy. Although this is what happened in the past, if she experiences it again, it is inevitable that her heart will still be in the same mood as before. He was finally dead, in this dark corner, where the wolf was buried alone as a sacrifice. Later, I found out if his people were just as suffocating and sighing as he was, and that a person like him would die so undignified in the end.

"The blood is still fresh, and he just died." When Tang Jiuyue spoke again, her voice was already steady, as cold and ruthless as ever. "If you're going to take him back, do it now."

At this time, Ding Lou found a large transparent net spread out in front of him, which was composed of seemingly tough fine silk threads, spread out at the bottom of the concave cave roof. He vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it.

"Who brought the Elder here and killed him?" Ding Lou looked at the elder's corpse, his face turned slightly blue, and there was a hidden anger in his eyes. The man who had been alive a day ago was now lifeless and tied there, looking down with his head hanging feebly and with a pair of empty eyes.

Tang Jiuyue sighed faintly, "It was he who brought him here. ”

"What?!" Ding Lou's eyes were bloodshot, and he glared at Tang Jiuyue, "The elder knows the rules of our village, how could he come here alone?" ”

"Because-" Tang Jiuyue's eyes flashed with a fine light, as if he had seen through it, "He also made the same mistake as your predecessors, he greedily wanted things that didn't belong to him here;." ”

Ding Lou came down from the pillar and rushed to Tang Jiuyue's face, staring at her eyes and saying fiercely, "Don't slander the elders!" ”

At this moment, the fog had dissipated for no reason, at least the place where they were was empty, and they could already see the surrounding scene and the murals that had been obscured by the fog before.

Tang Jiuyue took a step back, pointed sideways at the wonderful mural on the wall, and said, "The painting on it is enough to prove that what I just said is true." ”

Shen Man and Ding Lou walked over at the same time and looked carefully along the mural.

At the beginning of the mural, the colors are dazzling, and inside is a delicate court scene, and everyone is singing and dancing, so lively. The temple was full of gold, and on the high platform and high seat, there was a man wearing a bright yellow robe and a crown on his head, and in his arms was a woman with a beautiful appearance and a red hairpin wearing a ring. The woman smiled skillfully, although she was not the best-looking, but her temperament was not bad, and she must be the legendary concubine buried here.

In the second painting, it is a scene of a woman in a boudoir, still a temple of the same tone, except that there is only one woman in fine costumes, who is sitting upright behind a screen, holding a silk thread in her hand and hanging her head to embroider seriously. Outside sunlight shone in through the windowsill, giving her side face a faint glow in the sunlight.

Shen Man looked at her arm, and a thought suddenly popped up in his heart, but it didn't seem to be real. So I plan to continue reading and then make a judgment.

In the third painting, the tone of the mural has turned gray, and it seems that it depicts the scene of the destruction of the country. The young emperor fled with the young concubine, slept in the open air all the way, and finally arrived at the place where the Miao people later settled. The emperor and the concubine parted ways, and his subordinates rebelled, forcing the emperor to kill the concubine. In the end, Shen Man saw many soldiers wearing armor hanging the concubine's coffin here. But at the same time, a black figure appears in the picture, wearing a black cloak and covering his whole body, he is here to direct the funeral of the concubine.

Shen Man's temples suddenly ached, and his brows furrowed tightly again.

"Xiaoman?" Tang Jiuyue called out with concern, "Are you okay?" ”

Shen Man seemed to be much better when he heard her voice, and shook his head with a forced smile, "It's okay." ”

Tang Jiuyue stared at the man in the mural, "The concubine is buried here, although the emperor has been defeated, but he still has a certain amount of financial resources, he will bury a treasure with the concubine here." When the Miao people heard this rumor, some people came to steal the treasure with bad intentions, but they didn't want to discover another secret. ”

"I warn you-" Ding Lou rushed up suddenly, wanting to grab Tang Jiuyue's collar and question, but Tang Jiuyue flashed over, he grabbed it with one hand, and could only point at Tang Jiuyue and said, "If you say one more word, I won't show mercy to my subordinates anymore!" ”

Tang Jiuyue looked at his arm and said for a long time, "Do you know why they don't have arms?" ”

"What do you mean?!"

"Because your ancestors coveted the arms of the noble concubine, she has the most aura in the world. And your ancestors listened to someone's instigation, thinking that by replacing the body of the concubine with a replacement arm, future generations would be honored. So driven by the desire for profit, he sneaked into the burial place of the concubine, opened the coffin of the concubine and amputated the arms of the people inside, and also moved her out, and then lay down in the coffin of the concubine, amputated his arms and replaced the concubine's ......"

"No, it's impossible to ......" Ding Lou shook his head desperately, "No one will be confused so much......"

"If you don't believe it, let's go to the concubine's coffin and see who is lying at the moment."
