Chapter Eighty-Six: Old Acquaintances Passed Away
Seal! This is what came to my mind at this moment, and after the experience of the underground ruins, I knew that there should be a back hand left here, so that I could seal the abyss again after the seal was broken.
But how is this sealed? The method of sealing the Evil Eye of the Abyss in the underground ruins was engraved on the stone pillars of the abyss, and even predicted who would enter the ruins countless years later.
The eyes on the surrounding tree walls radiated brilliant beams of light at the same time, converging in the deepest depths to form another eye of hell, and the black iron chains that locked the stone pillars were also mysterious, and all the spells glowed brightly. Gradually, the yin wind stopped, the stone pillars also stopped shaking, and the closed eye of hell below slowly dissipated, disappearing along with the abyss.
Sealed? I was shocked, but before I could recover from the shock, many black things suddenly flew up from the depths of the darkness that gradually became silent, and the speed was extremely fast, and in an instant they flew up, caught me and dragged me down.
I didn't even have time to scream, the whole person was wrapped like a dumpling, the thing that was entangled in me fell quickly, and there was a whistling wind in my ears, but it was dark all around, and I couldn't see anything clearly.
I thought it was the fibrous roots of the Hell Tree that were entangled in me, so I struggled and dragged the thing around my waist with my hand, and my whole body suddenly felt cold! It wasn't the fibrous root that was wrapped around the waist, but a soft sticky thing, like a wet tongue.
Oh my God, this can't be the big-headed monster outside the sinkhole, right? There was a buzz in my head, and I instantly remembered the encounter with the big-headed monster, damn it, is there more than one big-headed monster?
I was about to pull my tongue down, but my head hit a black iron chain and I lost consciousness.
……
"Hey, wake up, wake up!"
I don't know how long it took, but I woke up in a groggy state, with a sharp pain in my forehead, and my whole body felt like it was falling apart.
"Yikes! You're finally awake. ”
As soon as my consciousness was revived, before I could figure out the situation, a sweet voice came into my ears, and when I looked up, I saw a very beautiful little girl wiping the wound on my forehead with a blue silk handkerchief.
She smiled sweetly, her pretty cheeks had cute little dimples, and some red, and her black hair was wrapped in a headkerchief embroidered with a beautiful pattern, revealing only a few strands of bangs under her forehead, which looked very playful, setting off her appearance, and looking very delicate.
"You are? Here...... "I was a little surprised how such a beautiful little girl could appear in front of me, the last memory in my mind was obviously the picture of falling into the darkness, I was about to ask her, but my eyes swept all around, and my heart was suddenly horrified, white bones, eyes full of white bones, this turned out to be a bone cave I had experienced before.
I sat up in horror and found myself lying on top of the broken bones on the ground, and I was sweating all over my body.
"Who are you? How did it end up here? ”
Shocked, I looked at the little girl in front of me, who was less than twenty years old, and I was extremely puzzled.
The little girl smiled sweetly, pointed to it and said, "Hehe, my father and I went into the mountain and got separated, and I broke into here in a daze, and when I saw you hanging on it and being injured, I tried to save you!" ”
The place the little girl pointed to was the top of the bone cave, where there was a large pit where I had unraveled a corpse. There was a large eye-like depression in the pit, and a dead tree-like root was sticking out of it, but it had been truncated, and it was dripping with scarlet liquid.
This scene made me feel creepy, and I hurriedly grabbed the little girl and asked, "You mean, I was put down from above by you?" ”
The little girl still smiled sweetly and nodded, and I sat down with weak legs. It's so weird, the thing that entangled me at the last moment actually brought me to the bone cave, at this moment I thought about a lot, and suddenly understood how these bone caves came about, these caves with mountains of corpses must be connected to the Hell Tree, and the corpses here are probably the places where the Hell Tree disposed of the scraps after digesting blood and eating.
The third child, and the Taoist priest, I don't know what happened to them! I was stunned in my heart, the scene of the third man rushing into the abyss with the Taoist priest was deeply engraved in my mind, will I never see them again?
"Yikes! What happened to you? The little girl continued to wipe the wound on my forehead and asked, very gently.
I sighed, said it was okay, and asked her if she had seen a man with bare thighs and a big black dog. She shook her head strangely, as if sensing that I was feeling down, and she didn't ask anything more. At this time, not only did I have severe pain in my head, but I couldn't even move my feet, and even if I wanted to move, I needed the help of the little girl, probably because I fell and dizzy and hit something else.
I don't know why, but staying with the little girl in front of me, I always have a very strange sense of familiarity, as if we have known each other and met somewhere.
"That, what's your name, thank you for saving me!"
The little girl sat beside me, looked up at me, smiled sweetly, and did not speak, but the familiarity in my heart became stronger and stronger.
I didn't give up and continued to ask, "We... Know? ”
This time the little girl spoke, and she looked at me with some surprise, and after a while she blushed and said, "Ah! You don't remember me? Hee-hee, people always remember you. I still looked puzzled, "Dadun Bay, Qingshitai!" The little girl reminded.
When I heard these two names, I instantly understood. Datun Bay is a river bay four or five miles away from Dingyan Village, and there are many fish, and we used to go to fish in groups when we were children. Qingshitai is a very beautiful place near Datun Bay, there are many reeds by the river, very hidden, there is a big rock in the river, the water there is not too turbulent, and it is not deep, so the little girls in the nearby villages like to go there to bathe.
When I was a child, I mixed with my playmates such as Erhu, and often went to Dadun Bay to fish with adults behind my back, originally we didn't know that there were girls bathing in Qingshitai nearby, but once, Erhu teased me and threw my pants into the river to let the water wash down, and I went along the river to pick it up before I found out.
I was still young at the time, but I was also ashamed, when I saw several little girls playing in the water on the bluestone covered by the reeds, I immediately blushed, and people stayed by the river in a daze, and they were discovered at once. At that time, one of the girls by the river happened to have just come out of the water, and I saw all of them, and the subsequent experience was indescribable, I was beaten three mountains with my head and bare ass, and the girls did not listen to my explanation at all, if it were not for the pants that floated to the side of the rock and were hung up to prove my innocence, otherwise my reputation would really be resounding all over the village.
At that time, we were all little children, and no one remembered anyone's grudges, and I quickly became acquainted with a few girls, and soon became very good friends, knowing that they were from a nearby village, and that incident became a little secret between us. Now that she mentioned it, I remembered that the little girl in front of me was indeed somewhat similar to one of the playmates.
Looking at the girl's clothes again, I suddenly had no doubts, this was indeed the costume of that village, very special, and the body I put down from the roof of the cave before and buried it came from the same village.
"Ahh I remember, I haven't seen you in years, you've grown so big! I cried out in embarrassment, pretending to be surprised, and even I thought it was a little fake, and although I recognized her as my former playmate, I could not remember which of the people she was.
She was very happy, smiled sweetly, and still wiped my wounds, I didn't recognize who she was, I didn't know how to answer, so I simply changed the subject: "Alas, there was also a person from your village here before, who was also hung on it, I saw that she was pitiful, and helped her to bury her, do you want to take a look and take her out?" ”
As soon as these words came out, I suddenly felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't understand it for a while, but when I saw the little girl's face, I was shocked, and I saw that the expression on her face became extremely hideous, evil, and looked at me with a resentful face. I was frightened into a cold sweat by her expression, but in the blink of an eye, I found that the resentful expression disappeared again, and the little girl's delicate and beautiful face had a faint loneliness and sadness, which was completely untouched by the evil expression just now.
Am I mistaken?
I suddenly felt uneasy, but after seeing the sad expression on the little girl's face, my heart suddenly tightened, and I felt a sense of distress.
The little girl quickly restrained her sadness, put on her face the sweet smile she had just now, blinked her eyes wide, made a grimace at me, and said with a mischievous smile: "Hehe, Brother Xiaoyi, you have to go out safely!" After saying that, she quickly kissed me on the face, and before I could react, she suddenly ran out and disappeared into the hole.
I was shocked, the stone path outside the cave was broken, and I would definitely fall down from the hole, and I struggled to climb to the edge of the hole, only to see that it was empty below, only deep darkness.
"Fell?" My face turned pale, and I suddenly collapsed to the ground, and a kind of sadness suddenly rose in my heart, as if I had been caught by something.
At the entrance of the cave, a simple small tomb stood lonely, and at this moment, I suddenly seemed to see a little girl with a sweet smile waving at me, as if to say goodbye.
At the same time, there was a strange sound under the sinkhole outside the entrance of the cave, which was exactly the same as the sound in the fog I heard before entering Yeling, I didn't care about the sadness, stretched out my head to look, and suddenly found that a large area of thick white mist was rising, and the strange sound was approaching, I was cold, and I wanted to escape, but I couldn't even move my feet, and the fog had already poured to the edge of the cave.
brush, the hand that had been stained with blood reached out and immediately grabbed me......
……
"Journalists, journalists......"
I was awakened by a soul-like voice, and I opened my eyes suddenly, but the first thing I saw was not the scene in front of me, nor the mysterious fog in the sinkhole, but a small tomb, an innocent and cheerful little girl, waving at me.
Tears spilled out of the corners of my eyes, but instead of running down my cheeks, they reversed direction and spread towards the top of my head.
"Immeasurable your grandmother's Tianzun, it's over, this guy is stupid, you see him like this, crying and laughing, eighty percent of the demons are stunned!" A lewd voice sounded in my ears, the familiar voice diluted the sadness in the dream, I was shocked, and I wanted to turn my head to look at the owner of the voice, but I found that I couldn't move, my whole body was wrapped, wrapped in a thick 'cocoon', and it was hung with my feet facing the sky.
"Dead dog, look! After waking up for so long, his expression is still sluggish, and he may have really pretended to be stupid. ”
"Woohoo!"
"Damn, what's the use of you yelling at the poor road, the fuck is like this, don't let your dog be right, there is a kind of you coming to bite the Taoist."
"Woohoo!"
……
The arrogant voice of the Taoist priest and the angry roar of the third child came into my ears, which made me react completely, and I struggled to move, but I felt as if I had been sealed in cement slurry, unable to move at all.
"Dead dog, look, the reporter has reacted!"
"Woohoo!"
The Taoist priest's voice came from my right, and I couldn't see him, but he knew my reaction well, indicating that he could see my appearance from a good position, and I hurriedly shouted, "Holy shit, what the hell is going on?" What kind of thing is this, why is Lao Tzu sealed inside? Find a way to let me out. ”
"Damn, don't make any noise, you also want to know these questions, you are not the only one who has been blocked, and his mother's son also wants to go out, but now even the dead dog has been sealed, and our brother and wife are all wiped out!"
"What the hell is going on? What happened? ”
The Taoist priest sighed, "Dao Ye is the same as you, just woke up and found that he was locked up here, these things that sealed us should be the corpse cocoon on the hell tree, the thing itself is not very hard, but those wax are not ordinary, the strength of Dao Ye seems to have been drained, even the mana has been sealed, there is no way to get out of the trap, it is estimated that the situation of the dead dog is similar." ”
"Woohoo!" The third child barked wildly, and he didn't know whether he was dissatisfied with the Taoist priest scolding him for being a dead dog, or agreed with the second half of the Taoist priest's words.
I looked around with the vision I could now, and made sure I had left the inside of the tree, which was probably on the branch of the Hell Tree, for I saw the blue light, and the rest of the corpse cocoons around me.
I don't know what happened inside the trunk, but surely something that came out of the darkness swept us all out, hung us from the tree, and sealed us with wax, was it the subconscious instinct of the Hell Tree itself, or was something else at work trying to kill us?
We don't know, no matter what the situation is, we can't sit idly by.
I tried to open the wax cocoon, but as the Taoist priest said, whenever I tried to exert myself, the wax cocoon would emit a suction force, sucking all the strength out of my body. I was shocked, and just as I didn't know what to do, I suddenly felt something move in my right hand.
