Feng Long's body tensed even tighter when he heard this, and I now regret using the flashlight to shine on it, although the human ghoul shadow that Chen Shuangtong said relies on sound to distinguish things, but its weird movements still make me feel creepy.

The three of us each stood silently, and time passed little by little, when suddenly there were some scattered chatting voices in the distance, and the figure of the human ghoul suddenly raised his head down, looking at the sound in the distance.

I thought to myself, "No," but it was too late, and just as I was about to reach out and pull out the ancient sword behind my back, the ghoul figure rushed into the nearby woods and disappeared into the dark night.

"I'll save them, be careful yourselves." As soon as the ghoul shadow disappeared, I knew that something was going to happen, so I hurriedly said hello to Tianyou and Chen Shuangtong and ran behind me.

"Wait," I didn't run two steps before I was stopped by Chen Shuangtong, his movements were obviously not proportional to his soft body, but I didn't have the heart to think about that at this time, "Don't fence me, if it's too late, I'll die again..."

"Don't be impulsive." Chen Shuangtong obviously didn't care about my anxiety, but grabbed me tightly, until he saw me looking at him with solemn eyes, he said slowly: "Human ghoul shadow, it's not as simple as you think, that thing is not an ordinary evil, but something in the tomb." ”

Speaking of this, Chen Shuangtong let go of the hand that was holding me, because of such a delay just now, it is estimated that the ghost thing has already approached those who came in, even if I catch up now, it will not be enough time, and to be honest, I am not sure how to deal with that thing, and now I heard Chen Shuangtong say this, my heart calmed down even more.

Chen Shuangtong saw that I had stabilized my emotions, so he said, "Although my family is a tomb keeper for generations, the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum under the ground is not something that can be passed down casually, and the family has been passed down for thousands of years.

There is still a little record of the strange things in the tomb, my grandfather told me that his grandfather was my grandparents who had seen this thing, and our family would go down to the imperial tomb every ten years to make sacrifices.

My grandfather met this ghoul in the tomb, it should have been in the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, when our family was still very large, and there were more than 30 people who went in to worship that time, and my grandfather was one of them.

But in the end, he was the only one who came out of the tomb, that is, from that time my family began to be lonely from the hundred-person clan, and the tomb of King Qin was not as undug as the world said, but there was a shocking secret inside. ”

"What's the big secret?" Tianyou couldn't help but exclaim in surprise when he heard it.

"I can't tell you this." Chen Shuangtong was not angry when Tianyou interrupted him, but obviously he didn't want to tell us the reason, but I knew that he couldn't tell us.

It is estimated that there is less than one person in China who knows the reason for these things, and he has no reason to tell us, and the less people know about these things, the better, so I didn't ask much after he refused to be blessed by God.

Chen Shuangtong glanced at me, paused and continued: "I heard my grandfather say that after my grandfather came out of the tomb, he passed down the order that every generation must have two sons, one to inherit the position of the patriarch of the family, and the other to give up the identity of the tomb keeper.

This was done because the ancestral teachings could not be violated, but my grandfather did not want us descendants to really be completely exterminated in the ground in that generation, and my grandfather encountered three human ghouls back then.

Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I know from my grandfather's sketch that the thing we encountered just now is that thing, the ghoul shadow is not a corpse or a ghost, it is a human skin, a whole character pulled from the human body. ”

"Hiss," I immediately gasped when I heard this, according to what Chen Shuangtong said, if the human ghoul shadow is a human skin, then this is too terrifying, you can imagine that when you see a corpse, you will be scared, and even tremble with fear.

But if you meet a human skin, and this human skin will move, the feeling in it can't be described as terrifying, and I finally know why Chen Shuangtong is holding me down.

At first, I thought that the ghoul shadow was at most a mutated corpse, and the ancient sword in my hand and the charm given by the master were enough to deal with it, but now I feel a chill down my spine when I think about it, just a human skin, my ancient sword may not really work on it.

"My grandfather prevented the ghost of the human ghoul inside when he entered the tomb again, so he consulted a lot of information on this subject, and really let him find out the origin of this thing in an ancient book.

Legend has it that in the Western Zhou Dynasty, there was the punishment of cannon branding, which was to tie people to a huge iron pillar, and then put firewood in the iron pillar to burn red, and it was torture to burn people to death.

And this human ghoul shadow is something made by referring to the punishment of cannon branding in ancient times, and the person is also tied to a red-hot iron pillar first, but it is not like cannon branding that kills people.

Instead, the person's skin is slowly burned until it loses sensation until it completely loses the pain, and then starts from the head and pulls off the whole person's skin little by little.

The human skin that was plucked off, because the owner had been burned by the cannon, had lost his sense of pain, and when the human skin was cut off, the ancients would use special medicine to prevent him from bleeding too much and dying at once.

In that way, the circumcised person was awake the whole time, and he would slowly die until the whole human skin was cut off, which made the circumcised person angry.

After death, all the resentment gathered on this human skin, and the ancients put the human skin into the coffin, and finally sealed it in the tomb by an unknown means.

The ghoul shadow has gone beyond humanity and already belongs to the demon class, and these things will linger in the tomb, like a ghost, and will not rot for thousands of years.

If it weren't for the fusion in the tomb, the ghoul shadow would not have escaped from the tomb, this kind of thing my grandfather traveled all over China in the second half of his life, trying to find a way to deal with it, but he has never gained anything.

The only thing I know is that there have been two ancient tombs in Shandong and Sichuan, but those are just legends, because those who encounter the shadow of the ghoul must be the tomb robbers, and those tomb robbers either died at the hands of the ghoul shadow, or they did not dare to do this business again.

My grandfather didn't find a way to deal with this thing until he died, and he told me that if I came across this thing again in the royal tomb, I must not move or make a sound, and the only thing he knew after so many years of research was that human ghouls judge things by sound. ”

"I'll it, your grandfather spent most of his life can't solve this thing, so won't we suffer." Tianyou couldn't help but swallow saliva in his eyes after hearing this.

"I don't know." Chen Shuangtong shook his head and pointed to a pool of blood next to the security booth at the foot of Liancheng Mountain, "You and my villagers were very surprised that they died before, and there were all the things in the body that were emptied, including blood and internal organs, and only a human skin remained, right?" ”

After that, Chen Shuangtong looked at me, I didn't know what he meant, I thought about what Jiang Fu told me before and nodded hurriedly, Chen Shuangtong saw this and said: "Then you can basically determine which villagers were killed by human ghouls."

My grandfather told me that when my grandfather escaped from the underground palace, he saw many people along the way who were taken out of their internal organs, and only a pair of human skins were left in the flesh and blood in the body. ”

Tianyou shuddered, and said with a somewhat unfavorable tongue: "Then, what should I do, I don't want to be a human skin." ”

"Don't worry, everything is inseparable, since it still has a body, then it proves that it is still a physical object, even if it is a demon, there is a way to deal with it, we will leave it now, ghosts and ghosts are mutually exclusive.

There is a human ghoul here, and there will be no other evil, and those things are territorially divided like animals, and I don't know how to deal with this thing yet.

Why don't you go out first and tell Jiang Fu these things to let his people be careful, and they should be in a hurry to seal the dragon, I think these evil spirits and ghosts are all from the underground palace.

We hurriedly took back the dragon seal, got the things to change the dragon vein, sealed the spring of the earth, and completely cut off the exit of the underground palace, even if those ghost things are powerful, they can't come out again. ”
