Qin Yueyang bumped into Chen Zhi at this time, and a few people came to their senses and continued to walk forward with Qin Yueyang.

After a few people walked through the snow-white courtyard, they entered the back alley, where there was a dark path that led deep into the woods. Completely different from the elegant and beautiful style in the entire palace, there are no maids and guards here, and it feels eerie and closed, as if few people come.

They walked along the path, and at the end of the path was a tall black stone wall, very crudely built, with a very high wall and a large black iron gate in the middle. The gate was locked with thick iron chains, and the shade stood deep there, blocking their way.

In their current situation, they had to go forward in order not to deviate from the route due east, but in order to move forward, they had to pass through this high black wall.

Fat Wei saw that under this black wall, there was a very low door, about half a meter high, and he didn't know what it was for.

Chen Zhi bent down, poked his head in and looked, and the exit could be seen in front of him. So he made a color and took the lead in getting in, and the other three followed him into the low gate.

When Chen Zhi's fingers touched the wall, it was not as cold as expected, the wall didn't feel any texture to the touch, and he couldn't feel any temperature. In fact, everything here, including trees; Water; The land has no texture and temperature, and this feeling is very ingenious.

A few people quickly passed through the black wall and got into the courtyard inside, and after Chen Zhi stood up, he immediately felt that the atmosphere here was very wrong.

It's like a dark, deliberately sealed corner, devoid of the yellowish light of the outside, but dimly lit. Unlike the ornate palaces they had seen before, they were surrounded by black walls made of rough stone, and the black walls were very high, and the walls were full of sharp blades, as if to prevent the people inside from escaping.

Facing the gate is a large stone screen, the stone screen has no decoration on it, black and bald, only engraved with three big characters, "Royal Cannibal".

They saw that the ground under their feet was dark black, and they didn't know what was dyed on it, it looked sticky, and there was some redness in the black.

When Fat Wei climbed out, he tripped over something under his feet, accidentally opened his mouth, and almost exhaled. Qin Yueyang immediately jumped over and covered his mouth and nose, and this breath was swallowed back.

Chen Zhi looked at the ground, what tripped Fat Wei just now was a black thing, it looked familiar, but it was difficult to remember what it was for a while, after carefully distinguishing it, everyone was suddenly shocked, it was a human thigh bone that had been burned black.

Chen Zhi gradually realized the meaning of "Imperial Cannibal", bypassed the stone screen in front of him, and walked inward. A few people didn't dare to go too fast, and they saw that the surroundings were gray, and the light in front was very weak, but they could still see that this courtyard was very large, and in front of them was a black high-rise building. A "hiss~hiss~hiss~" sound slowly came from the front, the sound was small but very harsh, making people feel uncomfortable.

In the open space in front of the tall building, there is a large iron pot-like thing, and there are four feet standing high underneath, and the volume is like a large truck. Chen Zhi knew that it was called the copper tripod, which was the most important ritual vessel in the Shang and Zhou dynasties in China, and was mainly used to cook large pieces of meat. I saw that the bottom of the copper tripod was full of firewood, and a raging fire was burning. The top of the copper tripod is "purring" and steaming.

They continued to walk forward, and finally saw the real scene in front of them, and later Chen Zhi recalled this experience, it was really a terrible scene, more tragic than human beings can imagine.

Under the big copper tripod, a group of desperately struggling people were tied with ropes, shouting so wildly, the horror on their faces had distorted their faces, and some human legs were exposed on the top of the copper tripod, and some of the legs were still trembling. The previous "hissing" sound gradually became clear, it was the low groan of human beings in extreme pain,

On the iron poles around the big copper tripod, like grasshoppers, a string of people were strung with hemp rope, and the stomachs of those people were penetrated, but they were still alive, their mouths were gagged, and they were struggling in pain with blood.

Qin Yueyang trembled a little when he saw these terrifying scenes, and he didn't dare to go any further. Chen Zhi overtook her, stood at the front of the line, and led everyone to continue to walk forward. They didn't dare to look closely at the faces of the people around them, and quickly passed through the big iron pot that was boiling the living, listening to the screams that made people collapse, and continued to move forward due east.

Chen Zhi used to think that such a scene would only happen in the slaughterhouse, on pigs and dogs, but now seeing the bloody reality with his own eyes, he knows that when the same thing happens to humans, there is no difference between humans and animals. In this place, man is just a food, a delicacy that is cooked and put on a plate.

By the time they walked through this hellish courtyard, everyone's clothes were already soaked with sweat, and the green tendons on Chen Zhi's head had burst out at this time, and he only felt a burst of disgust and unforgettable hatred when he thought of the beautiful woman in the white kimono.

When they walked to the backyard, they found that there were a lot of people here, many soldiers in armor pushing wooden carts through here, and the backyard seemed to be a morgue for disposing of corpses.

There were rows of human bones piled up on the ground, the flesh on them had been eaten, and there was some flesh and blood left on the white bones, which was very disgusting. And a group of living people were locked in iron cages next to these bones, they were all tied hand and foot, and there were some children of a few years old, who were already scared stupid. They were thrown straight into the iron cage, looking at the corpses of their kind in front of them with dull and desperate expressions, silently shedding tears, like a flock of pigs and sheep waiting to be slaughtered.

In the middle of the courtyard is a large pool of water that appears to contain aqua regia (a very corrosive, yellowish mist) liquid.

A group of ancient soldiers in armor ran around pushing one-wheeled carts, transporting the bones in the carts and pouring them into the pool of aqua regia, where the bones immediately turned into ashes when they touched the aqua regia.

For some reason, when Chen Zhi looked at these soldiers in armor, he felt very strange, feeling that although they had human appearances on their faces, they didn't look like human beings. Chen Zhi couldn't tell what was wrong, he only felt that there was an expression on their faces that humans shouldn't have, an expression that was completely numb.

These soldiers pushing the cart, for some reason, moved amazingly fast, back and forth as if they were about to fly, Chen Zhi and several people cautiously walked through them, for fear of accidentally touching them.

At this moment, one of the soldiers, who seemed to be the leader, suddenly shouted, drew the whip in his hand and shook it on the ground. (To be continued.) )
