Chapter 191: Bones Full of Pits
The entire temple covers a very large area, almost the width of a football field.
Presumably, when this temple was built, it took a lot of effort.
Looking at the ruined temple in front of me, I couldn't help but sigh: "At first, I thought it was just a small place, but I didn't expect it to look so big." ”
Xie Daocong couldn't see how big this temple was, but he still took the crutches in his hand and knocked on the door: "Didn't someone say that there were people fleeing here before when they came here before?" And in order to increase those unjust souls, this temple must be as big as possible. ”
Without saying a few words, I walked in with my legs raised first.
As soon as I walked in, I saw a very large dead tree at the door, but only half of the dead tree remained, but I could still see through his thick branches that this tree must have been covering the sky and the sun at the beginning.
The whole temple doesn't seem to have anything special, a main hall and then a side shop, and some places to live in the back.
And in the entire main hall, I don't know what is enshrined, it looks like a very fierce and vicious rakshasa.
Next to it is the legendary Wong Tai Sin and Hu Da Sin and the like.
There are many temples like this in my hometown, but I have never seen them on such a scale.
"Xie Daocong, you said that this temple is so big, when will we be able to find the three-legged toad?"
There is a temple the size of a football field, and then there are large and small rooms, even if the two of us find it, we may not be able to find it, not to mention that Xie Daocong is still a blind man.
Xie Daocong stood in the corner with a cane: "Let's take a look first, I don't believe that those toads can disappear on the spot." ”
Wang Mazi said very clearly before we came over, there were three-legged toads everywhere.
So we just need to look carefully, and we should definitely find the toad.
I walked with him, and there was nothing in the main store, and then I came.
It's the middle of the day, but the whole store looks a little eerie.
I was standing in the doorway, about to walk in.
The clothes were pulled, and I turned my head to see Xie Daocong behind.
"Don't go in first, let me see what's inside," he said, and after he said this, he took his crutch and drew a circle on the ground, and then he said that he didn't know what he had done, and finally walked in.
I walked in with him.
As a result, when we walked in, we saw a coffin in the middle.
And next to the coffin is a human skeleton scattered around.
The man kept hitting the coffin, apparently slamming into the coffin headlong because of some stimulus.
Especially the coffin in the middle, although it looks very ordinary, it faintly exudes a very eerie smell.
"This person can't be the one who died in this temple before, right?"
I saw that the man was wearing a flower dress, and at first glance it was a woman.
After Xie Daocong walked into the whole room, he didn't say a word from beginning to end, and the whole person stood quietly in place.
I said a few more words, and seeing that he still didn't pay attention to me, I turned my head and reached out and tugged at his clothes.
Xie Daocong finally had a hint of reaction and pushed his glasses up.
"I'll just stand here and wait for you, you go in first and see what's going on inside."
He was blind and couldn't see anything even when he walked in.
I said a few words to him and went inside.
I cautiously walked around the coffin and the skeleton, and when I got to the back, I took a deep breath.
At the back of the room was a pit, densely packed with bones.
And those white bones were all human skulls, very neatly stacked together.
The bottom skull was shattered, and the top skull still looked very fresh.
Seeing this picture, I couldn't help but weaken my legs, and quickly reached out to hold the pillar next to me.
Before this place, it was really war.
So many people were killed here!
Xie Daocong heard something strange and said, "Liang Fan, have you seen anything?" ”
"Skull." After saying this, I took a deep breath and tried to calm my mind, and added, "There is a pit here that is densely packed with skulls. ”
Xie Daocong frowned slightly when he heard this, and then walked up.
He tapped the ground with the cane in his hand, stretched out his left hand and gestured a few times, and finally looked at me: "Don't make too much fuss, here...... Probably hundreds of people died. ”
He spoke in a very heavy tone, obviously not expecting to see such a picture.
After saying this, he turned around and went out: "It seems that we can't look for things today, so let's go back and find a tool to take advantage of first, and we can't step on other people's bones." ”
I followed him all the time and walked out with him.
It was getting dark.
The villagers who were looking for toads in these four areas also returned home one after another.
I also followed behind Xie Daocong without saying a word, and my mind was still immersed in the pit behind me.
I don't know how much pain those people went through before they died.
War is indeed something that should not exist in the world, and we absolutely must avoid it again.
"You're not going to be scared, are you?" Xie Daocong finally spoke, then stopped and looked up at me.
I quickly shook my head, and finally let out a long sigh: "No wonder that guy doesn't want to come, you look at the bones of that pit, as long as you are a normal person, you will definitely have nightmares when you see this scene." ”
Xie Daocong nodded and continued to walk forward.
Halfway through, I thought of one more thing: "Lao Xie, why don't we go back and find an iron pit and bury all those bones." You see, it's not the same that they're just alone and exposed. ”
Xie Daocong didn't say anything, but continued to walk forward, but I saw a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Walked into the village and walked a few steps further.
A villager stood on the side of the road and waited until he saw us and hurriedly walked up: "How is it?" You two didn't go in, did you? ”
He's the same villager who stopped us going up.
Seeing the worry on his face, I waved my hand: "The two of us didn't go in, we just stood outside and looked at it from a distance." ”
The villager nodded when he heard this, but was silent for a moment, and then opened his mouth to continue asking about something.
I didn't want to reveal too much to him, so I said a few words casually and turned away.
I returned to the village chief's house.
Zhao Yun was cooking, and after hearing that we had gone to the temple, she was very excited to ask us about the situation at that time.
Xie Daocong didn't say a word since he walked in, and sat on the chair as if waiting for the meal to start.
I could only briefly explain the situation in the temple, and then said my plan.
Zhao Yun opened her mouth for a long time after hearing this, and only came back to her senses after a long time: "I didn't expect you two to be so bold, you are not afraid, if it were me, I would definitely be stunned in it now." ”
"Zhao Yun, I don't know if I can borrow your hoe."
Zhao Yun nodded, stretched out his finger and pointed to the corner: "All the tools are placed there, and you can take anything you want directly." ”
"And if you're okay, can you help me light the fire, I'm cooking and lighting the fire at the same time, it's really a bit too busy."
I quickly nodded in agreement and accepted the fire-burning job.
Zhao Yun's cooking skills are still very good, and the one that is made in one meal is sweet and delicious.
It's just that because I saw the things in the temple during the day, I lost my appetite, and even if I was online, I just ate a few bites.
Zhao Yun saw that I hadn't eaten much tonight, so she turned around and grabbed a few more kimchi and handed them to me.
After eating, Xie Daocong said a few words and turned around and went back to rest.
It's still early.
Zhao Yun found a bunch of wool and began to knit a sweater.
"Zhao Yun, it's still summer, and you've already started knitting sweaters, are you a little anxious?"
Zhao Yun shook her head: "Knit the sweater first, since my father will be able to wear it when he comes back." ”
Hearing this, I was a little curious, and the village chief did not show up.
