Chapter 33: The Human Skin Wall
You see, what is this? I shouted.
The Soldier Ghost was the first to rush to my side, and as soon as he came, his eyes suddenly turned red, and he looked very excited.
Strange, how did this wall provoke him?
"Hey, what's wrong with you?" I looked at his face, which was distorted with excitement.
"Pear...... Pear Dress ......" The soldier ghost reached out and touched the wall, muttering to himself, his eyes were red, and the mist on his body suddenly turned blood red.
No, it's a reaction to the ghost's mood swings, and blood red is generally the color of evil spirits.
Is he going to turn into a demon?
I immediately took a few steps back, a little distance from him, and looked at him warily.
The soldier didn't pay any attention to me, just kept looking at the snow-white walls, looking sad and mixed with a hint of anger.
"What's wrong with him? Can you react so much to the wall? "I asked Lingzheng and King Ling's tomb.
"I'm afraid it's not a wall in his eyes. Pear ...... Is it the woman he likes? King Ling's tomb said coldly.
Lingzheng was silent, not knowing what he was thinking.
I had no choice but to stand still and not speak, just staring at the soldier ghost closely, for fear that he would suddenly turn into a ghost and attack us.
"Pear...... It's my sister. The soldier ghost said slowly, his voice low.
"Your sister? So what does she have to do with this wall? ”
"......" The soldier ghost didn't answer, just looked at the wall in grief.
And so on, the slippery walls like human skin, the unidentified objects that protrude from them like human fingers, and the violent reactions of the soldier ghosts...... I seem to understand something.
"This wall...... Is that your sister? "I uttered my terrible conjecture word by word.
The soldier nodded silently.
I gasped, it really was.
Is it any wonder that the wall is so wrong, it turned out to be made of human skin, and the protruding thing is his sister's finger, someone has skinned his sister and filled it in the wall?
I felt a chill in my heart, looking at the appearance of the soldier's ghost, he should have been twenty-seven or eighteen years old when he died.
Then his sister should be so old, maybe even a teenager!
At this time, King Ling's Tomb suddenly strode over, he raised his right hand and gathered a cloud of black qi in his palm, and then slapped it against the wall.
The black gas broke away from his hand and turned into the shape of a dagger.
"Poof......
The snow-white walls were cut open by the tomb of King Ling, and the sound was like someone cutting human skin with a scalpel.
I listened to the voice and shuddered unconsciously.
Soon, the wall was cut with a long hole, and King Ling's tomb stretched out his hand and grabbed the crack and pulled it out hard. The entire human skin wall was torn down, and when I saw the scene inside, I subconsciously took a few steps back and crashed into a person's arms.
Lingzheng put his arms around me and smiled softly.
I suddenly felt my face burn, and I was about to tease Lingzheng when the soldier ghost suddenly cried.
"Pear! Pear! ”
Inside the wall, a snow-white skeleton was "standing" there, the skeleton's right hand was broken off and hanging limply to the side, and the left hand sat and pushed forward, as if resisting something. What we just saw from the outside was the index finger of her right hand.
What did she go through during her lifetime?
The human skin was ripped off before she died? Or was it peeled off after death?
If it was alive, it would be terrible.
The soldier ghost slowly stretched out his hand and took out the bones of Lishang and put them on the ground.
Then I realized that there were many wounds on the bones, and you know, these were bones, not flesh.
These deep wounds represent that the girl named Lishang must have experienced a very human torment.
"That, this big brother, your sister her...... What's going on? "I don't know the name of the soldier ghost yet.
"Desert," the soldier ghost said, and I was stunned for a moment before I realized that he was saying his name. He said, "Lishang is my sister...... When he died, he was twenty-nine years old......"
Twenty-nine? That's only eighteen?
Li Mo looked at the bones on the ground, and his eyes became erratic.
After a while, Limo told us that Lishang was very beautiful before her death, and their family was poor, and a powerful person took a fancy to Lishang and wanted to marry her as the thirteenth concubine. Lishang already had a crush at that time, so she was naturally unwilling, and later the powerful sent someone to get rid of her crush and forcibly married her into the family.
Later, Li Mo went to the barracks and became a soldier, and he didn't remember the things in the barracks clearly.
Two years later, when he returned, his parents had died, and the neighbors said they had died of illness.
As for Lishang, she is dead, she was tortured to death by the magnate, and she left the desert to make a big fuss at the magnate's house, and asked for Lishang's bones.
As a result, he failed and paid for his life.
I thought to myself, no wonder he would be in a mass grave or something, I think he was killed by the big family and then dumped in the wilderness.
But it's strange, how did Pear's bones end up here? And where did her ghost go?
Could it be that this is the mausoleum of that magnate?
Has Lishang's soul already gone to the underworld for reincarnation, or is it ...... What happened and the soul has been gone?
One question after another kept popping up in my mind, and no one knew the answer except for the dead Lishang.
After crying for a long time, Li Mo finally calmed down and said, "The door is in that coffin." ”
I looked at the cyan coffin, which was glowing green, and it looked a little weird.
"Let's take a look......," I said to myself.
I walked over and the coffin was tall and went straight to my thigh. It is about two meters long and one meter wide.
Except for the color, it is no different from an ordinary coffin.
The coffin was also carved with a strange animal, somewhat similar to the current elephant, but with a long, thin tail, like a mouse, and a mouthful of terrifying sharp teeth.
We looked at the strange beasts above and looked at each other, but we had never seen such creatures.
Could it be some kind of species that has long been extinct?
"Open the coffin and take a look." Lingzheng said.
He consulted with King Ling's tomb, and then the two of them teamed up to push the coffin open.
As soon as the coffin opened, we expected to see some ancient corpse, but it was empty, there was nothing.
"Where's the stuff?" I asked, pointing to the coffin.
Isn't there supposed to be an ancient corpse? Why is it empty! Can the ancient corpses inside still run out on their own and cover the coffin again? That's all fine.
"Look inside." Li Mo said suddenly, his voice a little hoarse.
I looked down, but someone suddenly pushed me hard in the back, and then I fell into the coffin.
"What are you doing...... I shouted in panic, and as soon as I finished speaking, the whole coffin closed without warning.
It was pitch black before my eyes, and there was silence all around.
There was a strange fragrance coming from the coffin, and I tried to hold my breath but inevitably inhaled a lot.
I don't know what this scent does, I'm going to find a way to get out quickly.
"Lingzheng! Lingzheng! Help me! ”
I stretched out my hand and patted the coffin, but I didn't hear the slightest movement, as if I was the only one in the world.
After a while, I finally gave up, and began to calm down and think about who had pushed me in.
Lingzheng? No way, how could Lingzheng harm me?
Tomb of King Ling? It's unlikely, after all, we're grasshoppers in the same boat, and no matter how stupid he is, he won't hurt me at such a time.
Then only the soldiers are left in the desert......
I suddenly thought of something, Li Mo seemed to know that the exit was in the coffin early on, and since he entered the ancient tomb, it seemed that he had changed as a different person. When he was outside the tomb, he was dumbfounded, repeating a sentence, and seemed sluggish, but once he entered the tomb, he became calm and agile.
This situation became even more obvious when we entered the room, and he looked very excited when he saw the bones of the pear dress.
If it was really what he said, Rishang was his sister, who was tortured to death by a magnate, and he was also beaten to death by a magnate and his body was thrown into a mass grave. Then his obsession should be to find his sister's bones, or to see his sister again, not "go home" that he kept telling me at the beginning. ”
Could he have lied to me from the beginning?
He also contributed to our entry into this ancient tomb?
So what exactly is his purpose?
I broke out in a cold sweat at my terrible thoughts, if that was the case, they would be in danger!
Lingzheng and Ling Wang's kung fu are not weak, and the communication between Yin and Yang and ghosts is not worse than mine, but there is an estrangement between the two of them, in case they are provoked by the desert and the two of them fight, what can I do? When the time comes, Lingzheng and King Ling's tomb will be injured by both defeats, won't Limo take advantage of the fisherman?
"Desert! Desert you bastard! ”
I gritted my teeth and read his name, and my grandmother was right, no one should believe in ghosts.
This time it was really my carelessness, I was deceived from the beginning!
It was pitch black in the coffin, and I couldn't see anything clearly.
The names of the formations and spells flashed through my mind, trying to find a way to get me out.
With that, I had a flash of inspiration and remembered a charm.
I was so ruthless that I bit my tongue with my teeth, and my mouth suddenly hurt hotly. I endured the pain and stretched out my right index finger to dip a little blood on the tip of my tongue, and then gathered the spiritual power of my whole body at the fingertips, and the blue spiritual power slowly turned into the shape of an ice pick, I spit out another mouthful of blood on the ice pick, and then controlled the ice pick to hit the coffin lid.
"Broken!"
I let out a loud cry, and the lid of the coffin shattered, and at the same time, two-thirds of the spiritual power in my body was drained.
I didn't care so much and hurriedly got up to look outside, Lingzheng was already fighting with Li Mo at this time, Li Mo was covered in red mist, his eyes were blood-red, and his expression was fierce and he sent out one attack after another. King Ling's tomb held a black sword that he didn't know where to find it and stabbed at Limo.
I gave Li Mo a vicious look, then squatted on the ground and began to draw a formation with the last bit of spiritual power on my body.
Damn the desert, wait for my formation to be completed, see if I don't kill you!
