"Second Brother Qiao?" Qiao Er felt a pain in his body, and opened his eyes to find himself lying on the ground in the backyard.

"Ying'er?!" Qiao Er's mind was filled with Xiao Feiying's bloody face and mutilated corpse last night, and he was so frightened that he shook off her hand. Looking left and right, there were only some weeds around, and there was no trace of corpse blood.

"Are you having a nightmare?" The little warbler pulled him up and patted him with dirt.

"I woke up yesterday night and found several leopards around the back of the house. In cannibalism.."

"Second Brother Qiao, it must be your nightmare, we are ready to go"

Qiao Er ignored Shen Yan and walked towards the city by himself. According to what Shen Yan said, the Pavilion of the Dead Life only opened in the middle of the night, and now it is Yang Dun, and it will take a few hours to walk in the city, and go in the daytime, those evil qi may be weakened a little, Wang Tiehammer, you must not die, brother, I am here to save you.

The three of them spoke very little along the way, and Shen Yan led the way, from morning to noon. It turned out that the street where the Afterlife Pavilion was located was very prosperous, taverns, cloth shops, grain stores, candy blowers, shadow puppets, shouting to buy sugar gourds, selling buns, people came and went, but the Afterlife Pavilion was isolated, and even the children who were running and playing with rattles stopped to look at the front of the Afterlife Pavilion for a while, and then ran around the road.

"Little Flying Warbler, you are not allowed to enter, wait here well, if there is a fight, you will distract us." Qiao Erliang and Shen Yan glanced at each other, Shen Yan nodded at him, and pushed open the dusty wooden door.

The Pavilion was very dim, and when the door opened, the sunlight shone in, and the only light was the cloudy air in front of them.

"What kind of smell, I don't remember it that night" Qiao Er sniffed and picked up a white incense candle.

"It should be the smell of sandalwood and other incense, you smell it carefully, this smell is very similar to the smell of the Qinglou inside, I'm afraid it is used to cover up what smell" Qiao Er inspected the whole house, it seemed that the shopkeeper was not here during the day, he walked and walked, and turned his head to see the cabinet that displayed those small objects. Most of these ornaments are on men's bodies, stacked neatly, Qiao Er counted them, there are eighty-four, and Wang Tiehammer's bracelet is also among them, he took it out and carried it in his arms, "Let's go"

Shen Yan rubbed a pair of rings on his hand, and then sparks, he lit an oil lamp in his hand, and said to Qiao Erliang, "Qiao Er, the next thing is not simpler than in the tomb, be more careful"

"Good"

The two walked in the direction of the back room, and the boss's counter still had the blood and bone wheel that the boss showed him when Qiao Er came, Qiao Er and Liang thought that what they saw that day was only red wood, but now they took a closer look, it was really a wheel spliced with human bones and copper ornaments, and the red pieces of traces were not removed from the flesh and blood, stuck to the bones.

Qiao Erliang couldn't help but feel sick to his stomach, fortunately, the things in the tomb have been stored for a long time, they are all dried corpses, how can there be such a perversion, the skull cup is forgotten, and the human bones are used as wheels, and it is like a bone that has just been cut off. The intuitive impact of the scarlet flesh and white bones reminded Qiao Erliang of the scene of falling into the Qinglou that day.

Last time, it was the black light that blindly entered the corridor, but this time it was good, with the oil lamp, Shen Yan walked behind Qiao Er with the lamp, and Qiao Er and the others thought to themselves that it was fortunate that they didn't let the little flying warbler come in, otherwise they would have to be scared. And this time, as they approached the corridor, a chill came, mixed with the rancid stench of corpses and the pungent smell of incense candles, which made the two of them retch. The flame in his hand also weakened a little.

"Qiao Er, look!" Shen Wei raised the oil lamp, and the faint flames illuminated a corner of the wall in the corridor, only to see a corpse condensed by lime and wax oil, with a hideous and panicked expression, as if it had been stuffed into the wall alive. The two continued to walk forward, and found that some of the corpses had their eyes gouged out, some had their tongues cut out, and some had half of their faces torn apart... The only thing they had in common was that their ribs had been hollowed out, revealing stripes of ribs. The further the two walked, the more terrible their deaths became.

"Tick, tick...."Qiao Er felt something dripping on his head, and when he looked up, it turned out that the fire in his hand had melted the wax block on the top of the wall, and those bloody and blurred sticky substances dripped down with the wax oil.

"Here" Shen Yan grabbed Qiao Erliang and brought him into the room inside. It turned out that behind this narrow corridor was a huge palace-like space. Because it is

It was empty during the day. The scene that was originally a scene of flowers and wine is now very clear, and the red tents that were originally hung are of different shades, and some of them are still congealed into lumps, afraid that they are patches of blood.

Shen Wei turned around, stopped in front of a carved wooden door, he gestured to Shen Wei, motioned for him to follow him, and then pushed the door open.

"Who!" As soon as the door opened, bursts of aroma wafted out of the house, and there was a screen not far from the door, with ten big characters inscribed on it: "If you want to break the soul, you will be in the middle of the life pavilion". The owner of the voice is illuminated by candlelight, and the graceful figure is projected on the screen. Qiao Erliang and Shen Yan looked at each other, at a loss.

"Oh, two masters, you came to have fun so early" The girl walked out with a smile, she was only wrapped in a piece of cloth, and a string of bells around her waist, and with bewitching steps, she twisted straight in front of the two. She looked Qiao Erliang up and down with her arms crossed, and rolled her eyes at him: "Yo, it's you, how dare you come, how do you want to die here this time", and then tiptoed to look at the people behind Qiao Erliang. I saw Shen Yan turn around and close the door, and the pair of slender Danfeng eyes looked at the woman for a few seconds, and the woman's impatient arrogance was suddenly extinguished, and she turned into a docile kitten.

Qiao Erliang didn't see the expression of Shen Yan behind him, he took out a dagger and pointed it at the woman.

"The two masters... Can.. But what's the matter..... Little..... I don't know anything, little girl."

"Let me ask you, what the hell is this place" Qiao Er stepped forward and put the dagger on the woman's neck.

The woman was hesitant and didn't dare to say anything complete.

"You must have also been abducted, my brother is now imprisoned here, life and death are uncertain, now that so many people have died here, you don't want to add another life here" Qiao Er grabbed the woman's neck with one hand, and pressed the knife against Rou Skibai's neck with the other, leaving a light red faint scratch.

"Speak quickly!" Shen Yan echoed Qiao Erliang, but this tough tone was more like giving an order to this woman.

"I and a few sisters from the same township have been brought here for half a year, and the boss said that instead of sleeping outside, it is better to eat and drink spicy food in this building, isn't it just a matter of drinking and singing two songs."

"Don't talk nonsense, tell me where those people are locked up"

"Don't.. Don't don't, if you have something to say" Qiao Erliang's hand increased, and the woman's voice became weaker when she was pinched.

"Right here" The woman patted Qiao Erliang's arm and told him to let go. Then he led them to the bed in the house, pointed to the red satin embroidered quilt, and said:

"Right down here!" As soon as the words fell, Qiao Er quickly lifted the quilt, and there was nothing in it.

"Under the bed" Shen Yan squatted down and took a look, and found that there was a wooden board about one zhang long and one zhang wide under the bed, and a copper ring was decorated on the board, which should be somewhere underground.

"Go" Qiao Er put a knife on her neck, and the woman led the way and led the two into the cellar. The cellar was as cold and damp as the corridor just now, but it was cleaner, and there were a few black dogs in it, and when a few black dogs were grabbing food, they immediately became alert when they heard someone coming, and their mouths gurgled and gurgling.

After walking a few steps, I saw iron cages with many men imprisoned inside, the smell of alcohol mixed with the smell of vomit and excrement, and some of them were already unrecognizable and covered in blood. Qiao Er recognized Wang Tiehammer in the corner at a glance.

"Fatty! Fatso!! ”

When Wang Tiezhu heard this, isn't this the voice of Qiao Erzi, and got up excitedly and said, "You're finally here!" I knew you were coming."

"I haven't seen you for a few days, but you've lost a lot of weight."

"Don't tease me, if you don't let me go out, I'm going to gnaw on the wall" Wang Tiehammer's speech slowed down, "Quick, is there a way to save me out?"

Qiao Er looked left and right, reached out and pulled the thin hairpin off the woman's hair, and fiddled with the big lock a few times, but the lock was still firmly locked.

"You can't do it, Qiao Erzi, hurry up, try it with acid"

Qiao Er took out a bottle of liquid from the placket and poured it on the lock, which immediately locked a layer of white foam, but still couldn't open it.

"Qiao Erliang! Hurry up, it's time for the patrol to come in a moment."

"You dodge a little" Qiao Er took out a few firecrackers from his arms

Wang Tiehammer shook in front of him, then turned his head to Shen Yan and said, "Brother Shen? ”

As soon as Shen Yan rubbed the ring in his hand, a spark erupted, and Qiao Er and the two inserted the firecracker into the keyhole. With a snap, the lock was blown to the ground.

"I see that the house in this place is dark, wide and deep, I'm afraid it's a demon house, Brother Shen, let's go find Brother Ling together."

"No, this is my third time here and I've never seen him. I'm afraid I can't find it. ”

Qiao Erliang was slightly stunned, sighed and patted Shen Yan's shoulder, Wang Tiezhu looked at a loss, but seeing the serious expressions on these two people's faces, he didn't dare to speak loudly, so he dragged Qiao Erliang aside and bit his ear: "Who is this?"

"Shen Yan, Brother Shen, I almost died when I came here that day, thanks to Brother Shen's rescue." After speaking, he looked at Shen Yan, who was gloomy and worried. It is estimated that it was because of the tragic death of the Shen family brothers here.

Wang Tiehammer nodded as if he didn't understand: "Brother, you and I are born and die, and we have to rely on you at this critical time!" ”

Qiao Er pulled up Wang Tie Hammer and was about to leave, only to see the woman who had been hiding behind Shen Yan suddenly raised a handful of dust, choking the three of them coughing one after another, tears and snot falling together. Then she shook her body, causing the bell around her waist to rattle. Shen Yan quickly pressed the woman to the ground

ground, shouted at Qiao Erda:

"Run"

I saw that the black dogs heard the sound of bells running from the corner, and their mouths were still full of bloody saliva, and one of them ran very fast, jumped up and bit Wang Tiehammer's buttocks.

"Oops! Oh my god!"

Qiao Er hurriedly punched the dog's head.

This dog is indeed more vicious than ordinary hunting dogs, and its size seems to be much larger than that of hunting dogs. Wang Tiehammer just ran, didn't look at Qiao Er stopped, and a fierce man hit Qiao Er.

"That's really ...... Raise everything" Wang Tiehammer wiped a handful of snot, "Brother, don't be afraid, haven't we even beaten a lion, these are kittens......"

The road they ran on seemed to be like a corridor in a tomb, the candles on the road wall were dying, emitting a faint light, Qiao Er looked at it, wasn't this the black panther he saw behind Shen Yan's house that day! The leader of the front body lay on the ground, constantly pacing in front of Qiao Erliang. Qiao Erliang took out the dagger he was carrying, and put himself in a posture ready to meet the leopard's attack, only to see the black panther roaring in his throat and took a few steps forward, the palm of his hand holding the knife was already full of sweat, and suddenly someone patted him on the shoulder.

Qiao Erliang hurriedly glanced at it with his spare eyes: "Brother Shen"

Wang Tiehammer turned his head and found that Xiao Feiying was also following behind Shen Yan. "Alas! Ying'er, how are you...! ”

The little warbler didn't speak, but put her finger to her lips and made a silent gesture.

Shen Yan pulled Qiao Erliang down and said, "I'll come."

I saw that Shen Wei took a torch out of nowhere and waved it at those leopards, but it also worked, and those leopards saw the fire as if they had seen a nemesis, and ran away after taking a few steps back.

"This night animal is afraid of fire, and the road behind it can't be walked, so it can only go forward" Shen Yan took the torch to the head, and the road along the Yongdao became more and more cold, like arriving at an ice cellar.

"Brother Shen, we won't freeze to death in this basement, right?"

Shen Yan turned his head and looked at Wang Tiehammer quietly, and did not say anything, Shen Yan's eyes glowed yellow under the reflection of the torch, and he looked very frightened in this dim and narrow corridor, Wang Tiehammer did not dare to say more, this sharp eyes were just like those black panthers just now, trying to eat him alive.

"Oh, fat man, since Brother Shen is leading the way, he will definitely let us out, don't worry about it," said the four of them to the end of the road.

"Dead end" Wang Tiehammer whispered, and Qiao Erliang was also looking around and groping to see if he could touch any mechanism. Shen Yan shook the ground with a torch, and found that the green bricks under their feet were very strange.

Qiao Erliang squatted on the ground and looked at it for a while, muttering "The earth has four potentials, and the qi comes from all directions", and then used a dagger to pry open a loose brick on the ground, and then moved the brick next to it, and finally the brick was filled in another position. Then a ladder fell from their heads with dust.
