The ghosts were of different shapes, some were hooked by chains and hung in the air, some were nailed to the reef, and some were hung upside down on the reef.

Strangely, none of the ghosts were hanging from the same location, each of them was about ten centimeters above the sea, and very few were hanging above the reef.

I only glanced at it a few times before I heard a terrible scream coming from behind me. I looked back and saw on the highest reef a hanging ghost, sunburned in the fierce sun, but in a moment his body burned with a puff of smoke that turned to ashes.

A few minutes later, a ghost reappeared on the reef, exactly like the one before, except that this time he was scorched by the sun from skin to bones.

Even if he was dead, the flesh and bones burned in the sunlight were clearly visible, and I had never seen a ghost like this. It's like someone deliberately nailed a person to a reef and trapped him here with a very special secret method, so that he will suffer every day in the agony of life.

However, the ghost has always only acted at night, and what kind of method is used to make it manifest during the day, and the soul has not yet been burned by the sun.

I was being fascinated by the ghosts on the reef when I heard a heart-rending shout from the boat. I turned my head sharply, only to see a sailor caught around the neck by a chain that appeared in the sky, and he clung to the chain with both hands, and kept shouting: "Help me! Help me! ”

"Don't even go there!" Old man Liu scolded the sailors who were going to save people, and the sailor who was caught in the chain was dragged into the sea in the next second.

I walked quickly to the side of the boat and looked over, and the moment the sailor fell into the water, a ferocious fish jumped out, bit off half of the sailor's body, and then sank into the sea again.

The fish was huge and attacking, I had never seen it before, and one after the other pounced on the sailor, and after a while the sailor was left with only a pair of bones.

Old man Liu suddenly turned to look at us, looked around among us, and asked, "Who brought him in?" ”

Everyone looked at each other, obviously no one admitted it, but I was more curious why Old Man Liu asked like this.

I leaned beside Xiao Cheng and asked, "Xiao Cheng, do you understand what Old Man Liu meant?" ”

Xiao Cheng pointed to the reefs where the ghosts were chained and said, "Those things are called the Punishment Rock." These reefs are naturally formed, and legend has it that God built them to punish those who have committed the most crimes, and they have a bit of history. In ancient times, anyone who committed an unpardonable sin would be brought to the Condemnation Rock, tied to the reef, and burned alive by the sun. ”

Xiao Cheng continued: "The Punishment Rock is the place used by the emperor to punish crimes in the past, and no one dares to approach the families of those who died here, so their souls will be trapped here day after day year after year, but this Punishment Rock looks a little strange. ”

It was indeed a little strange that the Punishment Rock was able to pull out the chain and arrest the man, and it was evident that it was able to tell which of us had committed the most heinous crime.

Old man Liu was obviously a little angry, "I told you before I came, don't come in with me if you do something immoral." How did Zhang Hai get in? ”

Old man Liu was angry, those sailors didn't dare to say anything, and when Old Man Liu saw them like this, he was even more angry: "Don't you even want to say yes?" ”

Although Old Man Liu was angry, no one came out to say how that person got in, after all, the tragic situation of the sailor was still in front of him.

"You guys! Are you really not afraid of death? Let me tell you, the Punishment Rock was not triggered before we came in, it was you who brought Zhang Hai in, which triggered the Punishment Rock, you can watch it, I don't care about you! ”

Old man Liu was really angry this time, so he simply turned his back and stopped looking at them.

The tomb robber Lao Yu leaned up to play a round: "Everyone, everyone is now in the same boat, this crime rock is not a simple place, if you really bring it up, it is better to make it clear to Mr. Liu as soon as possible." ”

"The scariest thing about the Crime Rock is not the ghosts that are trapped, but the executioners who guard the Crime Rock." Xiao Cheng whispered.

The so-called torture is used in ancient times to call the executioner of the great crime, has been guarding the crime rock, even if they die, the anger on their body will be condensed into a soul, swear to guard the place of the crime rock, they are neither human nor ghost, let alone immortal, because of this, there is no way to compete with it.

The peculiarity of the torture is that they obey the punishment of ancient times, and use the punishment of that time to punish the guilty, and when the punishment is formed, they only hunt down some people who deserve to die but are not dead, and pull their souls to the punishment rock to be punished.

And their abilities will also increase after killing again and again. At first, when the wicked were punished with punishment, they would be worshiped as gods by the common people. But with the help of the common people, the torturers will feel that every time they kill someone, they should be taken for granted, and they will eliminate harm for the people, and after a long time, they will be executed even if ordinary people break into the crime rock.

I once saw a record of torture in a Taoist book, and that Taoist book was the one that was stolen by Yang Tianbao. It is recorded that every time the torturer appears in the world, it will set off a bloody storm, and even slaughter an entire city, in order to make an example of a hundred.

I don't understand why there is a crime rock here, and I am even more curious about what Old Man Liu is looking for, Liu Jinghuai can put the place where the East Plateau is guarded by the torturers, that thing must be very rare.

To tell the truth, not only was I scared, but even I had lingering fears, if they didn't say it, the torturers would definitely pull them out of our crowd one by one, and after the torturers were red-eyed, they would kill us as if we were in the same party.

Those sailors looked at each other, and some people were thinking about Old Man Liu and Old Yu's words. Everyone here should have heard of the Punishment Rock and the Torture Stone, but they are still waiting, and they may not say it until they have to.

At this moment, there was a sound of chains dragging from underneath the ship, and we each took defensive postures, and in the blink of an eye, a sailor was suddenly caught in the chains and dragged on top of our heads.
