Bang!

The entire pentagonal dining table was overturned by Gu Jun to the ground, and all the plates and food on the table fell to the ground.

There was silence in this secret room for a few breaths, and everyone let out another shock, Zu Ge hurriedly jumped on Gu Jun's head, Jin Zhuzi went to pick up Feng Wei on the ground, Gu Jun and Lou Xiaoning both held pistols and pointed them around.

As soon as the food that was fresh and fragrant just now fell to the ground, it quickly changed into another shape as if the illusion had been shattered.

The plump and tender chicken leg turned into a puddle of yellow pus, another apple-like fruit turned into a bloody white pus, and there were other brown, black ...... It was sticky, like it had just been squeezed out of a purulent wound, and it flowed all over the ground.

The indescribable stench had already filled this secret room one step at a time, polluting every drop of air.

"Oh my God, it stinks." Catherine was almost instantly stinking, and if it weren't for the peacock's forced endurance, she would have vomited everywhere.

Not to mention Catherine, even Gu Jun, who was no stranger to the smell of formalin and the smell of corpses, and had the highest spiritual power here, vomited almost all at once at this time, purely because of physiological reactions and a disgust in his heart.

The people around them endured very hard, there was no fresh air coming in here, and it suddenly became more and more stinky, and it didn't take long for them to vomit.

"Stinks worse than cat!" Zu Ge patted Gu Jun's head and said bitterly, I really didn't dare to imagine if I had eaten these pus just now, I would still have my life.

"What the fuck is going on...... Lou Xiaoning gritted his teeth and said angrily, he was already manic, and he was about to explode at this time, "The bastard of Laisheng Company, come out!" Suddenly, the rational monitoring stone on her wrist reacted, and her spirit was being eroded.

"Calm down!" Gu Jun immediately drew out an old spiritual seal and hit it, making Lou Xiaoning sober his mind.

"......" Lou Xiaoning was beaten back a few steps before she stabilized, the light of the rational monitoring stone went out, she came back to her senses, "These smells will also affect mental ......"

"I guess it's not the smell, it's the environment." Gu Jun said in a deep voice, and his seriously consumed spirit was shaking slightly.

The room was full of malice, and the pus that was gradually turning the floor into a foul swamp was just one of the things they could see.

And those purple wall coverings and carpets...... Gu Jun suddenly remembered a little bit of knowledge about color, and he had only checked the relevant information a few days ago because he was monitoring the color of the stone. Purple has a noble meaning in both Eastern and Western civilizations, representing emperors, sages, and gods......

He glanced around, and the people who set up this place might be those evil cultists from the earth world.

But Zugo said that those people are spiritually dreaming, so everything here is both real and illusory.

This hall is not equal to the House of Worms. He had the feeling that this was just one of the rooms in the House of Worms, the room where the cultists were active.

"We've got to get the exit quickly." Zu Ge slapped Gu Jun's forehead in distress, "Otherwise, you will suffocate here." ”

"So please hurry up and find it." Peacock said, "You ancestors are better at finding those crevices than we are. Lou Xiaoning also shouted: "There are passages above the five fireplaces, you can climb up one by one to see what the situation is." ”

"This ......" Zugo squeaked, his sneaky little eyes shivering at the dark fireplace, as if he were looking at the gates of hell.

But a sudden change made it impossible for everyone to blame Zugo's timidity, perhaps it had sensed something before.

After all the food on the ground had turned to pus, a human corpse hung upside down from each of the five fireplaces, tied with thick linen rope.

When they examined it just now, there were no of these bodies.

In an instant, Gu Jun's heart swelled, both angry at this scene and afraid that it would be Uncle Dan and them.

Catherine and Tom exclaimed, but it wasn't Uncle Egg, it couldn't be, because the five corpses were all children, all of them were six or seven years old like the pigtailed little girl in the fog before, and as for their appearances......

"Ahh Catherine was about to vomit, and the peacock covered her mouth stiffly, "Think of something else, think of something else!" ”

"It's pathetic." Lou Xiaoning gritted his teeth and muttered, and the rational monitoring stone flickered slightly, "It's miserable......"

"Is it because of some kind of illness that they look like?" Mo Qing asked coldly.

"It should be ......" Gu Junji looked at the corpse of the child in one of the fireplaces, "The deceased seems to be a leper." ”

He had not seen a leprosy patient with his own eyes. Since the beginning of modern times, leprosy has been gradually eradicated, and it is in a state of low prevalence, with very few new cases every year. But leprosy has plagued mankind for thousands of years, and even now, there are still some leprosy villages in the country that were established decades ago to isolate patients.

Leprosy is caused by the leprae bacillus, which causes lesions of the skin and peripheral nerves of the patient, becoming deformed, and disabling the extremities.

The corpse in the fireplace was like that, its face drooping and twisted, and its neck and hands were jutted with clumps of pus......

Gu Jun suddenly thought of something, turned his head to look at the corpse in the other fireplace, smallpox...... He was a smallpox patient.

The corpse's facial skin was covered with dense small blisters, some still white membranous, some blackened. The visible skin is covered with fine blisters, as if they have been scalded by boiling water, typical of smallpox.

He looked at the other fireplace, where the corpse's eyes were purulent, and there were herpes and pustules on its skin, except that there were patches of black crust underneath.

Is that a plague patient...... The plague was the so-called Black Death.

His heart was restless, and Huo Di looked to the other side, the corpse was scrawny, with traces of feces on his body, it was cholera, a cholera patient.

Leprosy, smallpox, Black Death, cholera

It's all ...... The plague has had a huge impact on humanity, and cholera still hits countries with poor sanitation every year.

There was also a fireplace, a corpse. Gu Jun looked over, and there was a sense of familiarity, a sense of familiarity from those patients in Jiangxing Town Hospital...... The skin is cyanotic, the lips are dehydrated, and the face and body are covered in bloody phlegm...... It's Legionnaires' disease, I just don't know if it's old or new.

"Here's an altar." Gu Jun understood something, and his heart trembled with extreme anger, "Those corpses are the arrangement of the ceremony. ”

Five different diseases, five plagues.

What purpose is this ritual? Are the corpses of the sick a tribute to the House of Worms......

"Rituals? So the food is not for us to eat," said Zugo, exclaimingly, "and it is also a ritual sacrifice." ”

It is one thing to throw the ritual sacrifice like this, and what the believer who performed the ritual thinks, and another thing what the unknown being who received the sacrifice thinks.

Everyone looked around, back to back in the middle of the pentagonal hall, and felt a growing stench and danger rush in.

It's as if there are countless eyes watching them.
