Chapter 14: Sneak back to the temple
At this time, we saw a figure swaying on the ground, looked up, and found Liu Lao Er on the beam of the lobby. He was hanging high above the ground, drifting with the cold wind blowing into the house. Immediately, we were terrified and didn't know why this was happening. Later, we discussed putting Liu Lao Er down, so it was not a matter to hang there.
But the beams were too high, and the torches weren't bright enough. We had no choice but to wait until dawn to make plans. Not knowing what's going on here, we fear that someone is scheming us. So we sealed all the doors and windows of this lobby, leaving only one door, and blocked it inside, so that we could prevent others from framing us in secret. Then we checked the cheats of the wooden box and found that it was okay, so we all sat on the ground and waited for dawn. Later, it was so sleepy that everyone dozed off one after another, and I don't know who suddenly screamed that the wooden box was gone. Everyone woke up, and indeed, we found that the wooden box that had been placed on the desk had disappeared under our noses, while the doors and windows were intact. At this point, we thought that one of us must be doing something wrong. So they took up arms and looked at each other on guard, suspicious of each other. But there was no direct evidence of who did it, and we were all at a standstill there. That's when the deadlock between everyone happened."
Due to the long time of quarreling, Wang San felt a little thirsty, so he picked up his bamboo tube and drank water. Unexpectedly, he was poisoned and died as soon as he swallowed the water in his mouth. And the poison in it is still the poison we carry ourselves. This poison was originally used to poison beasts, it can kill beasts quickly, and after twelve hours of the beast's death, the poison will disappear automatically. Therefore, it is a poison commonly used by hunters.
Everyone didn't expect Wang San to be poisoned and die, but he was poisoned and murdered by his own people. At this time, an idea invariably arose in everyone's minds, that is, to kill the other party before being killed by the other party. As a result, everyone became very cruel, attacking each other like fierce beasts.
In the end, only the three of us and the Wu Dachara brothers remained. The two Wu Da Scara brothers are taller and more ruthless, and the others were killed by the two of them. Since the three of us did not participate in their struggle from the beginning to the end, and promised not to use any gold coins, we were not killed by them.
Even so, the two brothers tied the three of us to a pillar. Since they couldn't find the whereabouts of the cheats, they started beating us up. But we really didn't know the whereabouts of the cheats, so we stayed in the lobby for four or five days, and they tortured us for four or five days.
Until one day, the two brothers seemed to have fallen into evil, pinching each other's necks, saying that everything is mine, and no one wants to take it. In the end, both were strangled to death by each other. Later, the three of us managed to break free of the ropes, and we couldn't bear to look at the corpses of our companions in the room, so we buried them one by one in the courtyard.
When we thought of Liu Lao Er in Fangliang, we found that his body was gone, and no one paid attention to when his body was missing. The three of us sensed that this was a bad place, so we decided to leave it without anything.
But when we walked out of Putuo Temple, we found that there was fog everywhere, and we couldn't distinguish the direction at all, so we could only take one step at a time. I don't know how long we walked, but we faintly saw a person moving slowly around a corner of the street. We were so happy that we went to ask for directions, but when the man turned around, he found that he was a moving corpse.
At that time, he turned around suddenly, and before we could react, your grandfather was bitten on the arm by him, and he bit off a large piece of meat. Where have we ever seen such a terrible thing, directly hitting the head of the dead corpse with an iron rod, but I didn't expect to blow the head of the dead corpse in one fell swoop.
Just as we were at a loss, we found more and more dead bodies walking, slowly moving towards us. So we fled and hid in Tibet. However, no matter where we go, it seems that we can't escape this town.
Then we heard the cries of others, so we found you", Brother Niu said with a lingering heart.
After listening to Brother Da Niu's words, Qin Zhan and Ling'er didn't expect that so many things would happen in the middle, and the Soul Devouring Taro Flower would be able to do so many strange things.
However, nesting in this small courtyard is not a long-term solution. Qin Zhan looked at the wound on Grandpa Ling'er's arm, there was no sign of healing, and from time to time there were black pus and blood flowing out.
Obviously, there was something unclean on the bodies of these dead bodies, which caused Grandpa Ling'er's wounds to not heal. Since they didn't have any herbs, they could only burn the blade red and burn it directly on Grandpa Yu'er's wound for a simple treatment. At this time, there was still a period of time before dawn, and everyone hurried to rest and wait until dawn to make specific plans. If it drags on like this, they will all die sooner or later.
In this way, after Qin Zhan and the others simply rested for a few hours, the sky began to brighten. However, the whole town was filled with fog, and people's vision could only see five zhang meters away at most. This is already the limit of their line of sight, but it is obviously extremely dangerous to go out in this situation, and if you are not careful, you will crash into the mouth of a dead corpse.
Fortunately, Qin Zhan had already initially stepped into the threshold of spiritual cultivation, and at this time, his advantages were undoubtedly reflected. The scene within a radius of ten miles could be clearly seen by his spiritual power, let alone this town. And Blood Raven Town is definitely not as big as Ten Miles. Thinking of this, Qin Zhan had some confidence in his heart, and then he concentrated on spreading his spiritual power and probing the environment they were in.
It turns out that this town is only four or five miles within a radius of four or five miles at most, and Putuo Temple is located in the center of the town. To Qin Zhan's surprise, they were very close to Putuo Temple, only one street away. Unexpectedly, they wandered around the town for a long time, and they were so close to Putuo Temple. Qin Zhan didn't see a few dead bodies in his mind, but his subconscious told Qin Zhan that they must be hiding somewhere. As long as Qin Zhan and a few people appeared, those dead bodies would emerge from all over the place and surround them.
Through observation, Qin Zhan found that only the area around Putuo Temple was the cleanest in the entire town, while there were obvious signs of dead bodies moving in other places. However, this does not mean that Putuo Temple is the safest place, on the contrary, it is very likely that it is the location of the Soul Eater Taro. In addition, it is very likely that the dead corpses outside are Soul Eater Taro manipulating their movements, driving people or animals who have strayed into Blood Raven Town to Putuo Temple. The Soul Eater then kills these people and animals by creating various illusions. However, when Qin Zhan searched the location of the Soul Eater in Putuo Temple, he found nothing, which made Qin Zhan very puzzled.
