Chapter 34: The Old Man's Whisper

When the paper people flocked into the alleyway of the housing area, the crowded garden square also became empty, as if everything he had seen before was a dream and an illusion, and the empty picture in front of him made Chen Xian dazed for a moment, but his mood quickly stabilized, and he knew what he should do at this time.

Now is the opportunity.

Chen Xian clenched the weapon in his hand, habitually hunched his waist slightly and tensed the muscles of his body, the whole person seemed to have turned into a beast that had entered a hunting state, and even the eyes that were faintly shining in the darkness gradually lost the calm and peace they had before, but instead looked extremely aggressive and aggressive, like a hungry eagle that had found traces of its prey......

Silently, Chen Xian had already rushed from the shadows in the corner of the square. stabbed out, and the whole person's figure became blurred in an instant.

In this wide area without obstacles, Chen Xian's running speed can be stretched to the limit in an instant, which is much more terrifying than the speed he showed in the alley before, and even Chen Xian himself was a little puzzled at the end of the run...... When did you run so fast?

Chen Xian has a deep understanding of his strength, at least in terms of physical function, he knows very well where the limit of his running speed is, even if he increases his speed to the limit of 100 meters in 8 seconds, and the speed limit of an instant explosion will not exceed 1 second and 15 meters, but now, ......

In the square full of embers, Chen Xian's running speed has far exceeded the previous limit speed, and the distance he moves per second is at least about thirty meters!

"I remember I haven't been exercising lately......" Chen Xian was muttering in his heart while running, with a puzzled face, "Am I still in the development period?" ”

Running at top speed, Chen Xian soon entered the central area of the Garden Square, where the scene was even more unacceptable than the outer ring area, and there were many strange and twisted human stumps on the ground in addition to embers.

Like the limbs of a paper figure being crumpled, many severed limbs are twisted to an unimaginable extent for ordinary people, and there is a strong smell of blood at the broken wounds.

How many people were killed in this disaster?

Chen Xian couldn't help but hold his breath when he looked at the stumps everywhere, judging from the characteristics of these body stumps, whether it was from the abnormal phenomenon of the stratum corneum of the skin or from the abnormal phenomenon of the bones, they should not belong to the paper figures that appeared before, but very much like the appearance of the victim after being infected with the "virus".

What does it feel like to walk in hell?

Chen Xian had never been to hell, but in his opinion, hell might be nothing more than that.

"Could it be that all the residents in the house have been killed....... Chen Xian muttered, his running pace slowing down slightly, and he was full of vigilance against the central fountain sculpture a hundred meters away.

Previously, the paper figures stood side by side around the fountain sculpture, and the source of the "signal" of the talisman detected by the wooden figure was located in the sculpture...... That can basically prove that there is indeed something unknown in the sculpture, whether it is the stranger behind the ghost, or the origin of this disaster, the answer should be found there.

As he gradually approached the fountain sculpture, Chen Xian vaguely heard a whisper coming from that direction, like the drunken whisper of an old man, hoarse and low with a strange aura.

"Sanqing Road...... Five buckets rise ...... Taiping Cave Yan Wanfa True ......"

"Shi Zhi Taiping repeats the technique...... Death without destroying flesh and bones....... The five fighting techniques collect the soul without dispersing its form...... Three Pure Dharmas to cast talismans and spells......."

"Sanqing Road...... Five buckets rise ...... Taiping Cave Yan Wanfa True ......"

The strange whisper was intermittent, and it made people feel creepy, as if it wasn't the person who wanted to say this, but every word crawled out of his throat, and he could only open his mouth uncontrollably and let the words jump out, as if it had become a machine that could only repeat, and only said these few words over and over again.

In these whispers, Chen Xian noticed a few key words.

Three Qing, five buckets, Taiping.

"Sanqing Dao should refer to Taoism...... Five buckets....... Could it be the Five Bucket Rice Sect created by Zhang Daoling during the Eastern Han Dynasty? Chen Xian secretly analyzed in his heart, and when he heard that someone was indeed talking over there, he didn't dare to walk too fast, so he could only approach that side lightly, "The Taiping Sect seems to be also the legal lineage of the Eastern Han Dynasty...... The founder should be Zhang Jiao, the leader of the Yellow Turban Army, right? ”

Taoism is the religion with the most legal lineages, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a hundred schools of thought in ancient times, but most people only know the most famous sects, so that the other legal lineages have slowly died out with history, and now they can only barely be left with a little sporadic inheritance, and have become a folk law school that is biased towards witchcraft.

Sanqing Dao should refer to the overall prototype of Taoism, and the founder should be Lao Tzu Li Er.

As for the Wudou Rice Sect, it is the predecessor of the famous Heavenly Master Dao, which was founded by the Heavenly Master Dao patriarch Zhang Daoling in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and there are many believers in China, so that their inheritance has not disappeared in the long river of history, but has been passed down to this day.

Taiping Road.

This lineage of Taoism can be said to be the most obscure, because it appeared and disappeared early, and it does not leave as many shadows in history as other sects.

Of course, Zhang Jiao, the founder of this sect, is still very famous, especially the sentence shouted by Zhang Jiao when he led the Yellow Turban Army uprising is even more popular.

"The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand, the age is in Jiazi, and the world is auspicious."

Similar to other Taoist sects, the Taiping Dao also pays attention to the principle of the five elements of yin and yang, the art of spells, although in most rumors that the Taiping Tao is to give believers medical treatment to preach, but what the truth is, no one can say clearly, at least in the internal literature of the Secret Bureau, there is a record of the Taiping Dao to control the ghosts and gods.

At this time, Chen Xian had already walked to the very center of the garden square, that is, the location of the fountain sculpture.

The shape of this fountain sculpture is very ordinary, belonging to the style that can often be seen in the last century, but I don't know if it is because it is covered by too many embers, the surface of the stone sculpture is covered with many black patches of different sizes, looking like a patient with skin disease, revealing a strange and indescribable feeling.

Perhaps this fountain has not been opened for many years, and there are a lot of gravel and dust piled up in the pool, and there are some things that resemble human organs, but they are all broken into pieces of flesh that are difficult to distinguish from the shape, and Chen Xian can only barely distinguish them by the smell...... It smells pretty fresh.

On the right side of the fountain pool, there is a cave that has been excavated by man, and next to the mouth of the cave is a sapper shovel with English letters and a well-made hoe, which seems to have been dug by the man with these two tools.

The diameter of the entrance to the cave is about one meter, and when you look at it from the entrance, it should be a cave that extends downward and has a steep slope, and the angle in the passage is almost vertical, and you may not be able to come up if you go down, because there is no extra space for people to turn around and change direction halfway, and if the person who goes down has claustrophobia, he will be scared to death if he is not stuck in the middle of the road.

"Sanqing Road...... Five buckets rise ...... Taiping Cave Yan Wanfa True ......"

"Shi Zhi Taiping repeats the technique...... Death without destroying flesh and bones....... The five fighting techniques collect the soul without dispersing its form...... Three Pure Dharmas to cast talismans and spells......."

The strange whispers continued, and the person who spoke was in the deepest part of the cave, and even Chen Xian could faintly hear the echo inside even lying at the entrance of the cave.

"Is this guy stuck inside?"

Chen Xian looked at the narrow and deep tunnel on the ground and muttered, if the space here was a little bigger, maybe he would not hesitate to climb in to find that person, but ...... What if you don't find someone and you get stuck in the tunnel? Even if you don't die, it's not comfortable to be stuck in it for ten days and half a month! Who knows when the Bureau will clear this area? How long will it be before they get themselves out?

Do you want to go in?

Chen Xian hesitated, wanting to observe more before making a decision, but the reality did not allow him to do so, because he heard many small footsteps coming from the room, and the footsteps were getting louder and clearer, as if hundreds of people were approaching this side.

Those paper figures are back?!

Chen glanced back in a hurry, and vaguely saw some familiar figures appear at the edge of the room, and sure enough, some paper figures came back.

"Give it a go."

Chen Xian gritted his teeth and carved a line of big characters on the cement floor with the sawtooth of a meat saw, which probably means that I went down to find the murderer behind the scenes, you must not seal the hole.

After doing all this, Chen Xian took a few deep breaths.

He first reached into the cave with the saw, and then slowly climbed in, maintaining a position that could crawl slowly with his hands stretched forward, and gradually disappeared into the darkness........
