Chapter Ninety-One: Beautiful Corpses Are Fragrant
There was a raised button on the stone wall, Lingzheng pressed it, the button turned, and a one-meter-high cave appeared on the stone wall, Lingzheng took the lead in it, and I hurriedly followed.
As soon as I got through, I heard a bang, and the door immediately shut.
I looked around and suddenly I felt like I had come out. This is a wild cemetery, full of half-exposed coffins, there is no human population nearby, the weeds are knee-high, and the spirit is leading me slowly through the weeds, and I have come to the middle of the whole wild cemetery.
"Lingzheng, are we out of the Narcissus Cave?"
"Nope."
"And what's going on with this wild graveyard? There is still grass growing, and we saw that there is no grass in the Ten Thousand Snakes Pit before. And also...... What about the tomb of King Ling? Why didn't anyone see it? ”
Lingzheng shook his head and didn't answer.
As we walked on, we saw a huge stone tablet with many small characters written on it, and I took a closer look at it, and found that it was actually written about the life of Narcissus, which was similar to what we had learned before, but there were many other things. The general meaning of what is written above is that after Narcissus died, the villagers renamed the village Narcissus Village in order to commemorate her. Later, a sudden natural disaster broke out, heavy rain and landslides, burying the village of Narcissus.
Although Narcissus Village was buried, no one died.
Several mountains form an upside-down bowl that covers the village, and people cannot go out, but they can continue to live here.
Gradually, a separate living space was formed, like an underground city.
Later, as the earth's crust changed, the vegetation on several large mountains gradually changed, and the stones formed water and soluble limestone, which dissolved the soluble bedrock into calcium carbonate. Time is like water, the sun and the moon are like shuttles, and the space of the tunnel is constantly increasing, constantly increasing, and finally ...... The top could not bear the weight of the entire mountain, and began to collapse, changing the spatial shape of Narcissus Village. The collapse flows out of the underground river, and the water continues to dissolve the bedrock.
In this way, the people of Narcissus Village slowly died, and in the end, only this huge stone monument remained.
I looked overhead, and sure enough, it was exactly as described on the stone tablet, with a circle of invisible circular light on it, which should be the sky outside. The soft white light shone downward, barely illuminating everything around them.
I pulled Lingzheng's clothes: "Lingzheng, can we still get out if we fall into such a deep pit?" ”
Lingzheng looked at me gently: "Don't be afraid, I'm here." ”
"Hmm."
Ling Zheng led me, bypassed the stone tablet, and walked to the back, there was a crystal coffin, and there was a beautiful woman in ancient costume in the coffin, and if you looked closely, it actually looked exactly like Narcissus. I looked at her carefully, her face was lifelike, her face was painted with a faint palace makeup, and she was wearing a phoenix crown and a veil, as if she was married.
I walked around the crystal coffin: "Lingzheng, wasn't Narcissus skinned and bone-removed?" Why is her body here? ”
Lingzheng didn't speak, and split the lid of the crystal coffin with one palm.
Suddenly, a nice fragrance came out of the air, and I couldn't help but inhale it, it seemed to be the scent of sandalwood with rouge added to it, it was very strong, it smelled good, and it was very familiar.
Lingzheng took out a silver needle and stabbed it into Narcissus's body, poof...... With a soft sound, Narcissus's body quickly deflated like a punctured balloon, and in the blink of an eye, a beautiful corpse turned into a withered skin.
Originally......
It wasn't a corpse, but a layer of human skin pockets with something wrapped in it.
Lingzheng took out a knife, scratched, and cut the whole skin, there were nine pillars of incense inside, lying horizontally, and it was still burning, and the strange fragrance emanated from the nine pillars of incense, which was very weird.
I looked at this scene in amazement: "Lingzheng, what is this?" ”
"The incense corpse technique, using the beauty skin as a technique, trapping the soul for thousands of years will not be dispersed, and it will be used to trap thousands of souls and ghosts for its own use."
"The name of the incense corpse technique is beautiful, but this magic is too evil, right? No wonder you said before that there are so many ghosts in Concubine Liang's Tower, it turns out that this is the case, the means are really cruel! I sighed, "Who did this incense corpse technique with the skin of a narcissus?" Hey? No, if this skin is from Narcissus, then whose skin is the one that Li Mo took out of the wall before? ”
Lingzheng replied lightly: "Lidesert deceived us. ”
"Huh?"
"The real skin of Narcissus is here."
"You mean, the first skin is indeed that of the sister of the desert? Is the story between Limo and Narcissus fake? Limo is not a woodcutter, is he really out of the desert? ”
"Nope! It's all fake, he's not deserted, and he's not chopping wood. ”
"Huh? I don't understand, Lingzheng, if Limo is not chopping wood, why does Narcissus recognize him and call him Limo? What was his purpose in lying to us a few times? Ah! Don't...... Narcissus is also fake? ”
"Narcissus is true, she should be trying to find her true skin, so she cooperated with Limo to act, tricked us into carrying out the zodiac sacrifice, and came here to take her skin. As for Limo, in order to get the three magic weapons of Narcissus, they made a deal. ”
"Yes, you're smart."
Suddenly, Narcissus's voice came from the crystal coffin.
My mouth opened wide in shock.
The skin in the crystal coffin, which had been flattened, slowly bulged out, regained her flower and moon appearance, she crawled out of the coffin, looked at us, and was full of energy: "Thank you, two." ”
Lingzheng took me behind him and looked at Narcissus coldly.
Narcissus raised his hand lightly, and the fragrance overflowed: "Sir, don't be in a hurry to kill me first, in terms of magic, Narcissus is not as good as Mr., and it is really a last resort to use you to come down to Narcissus Village." But...... We're using each other, aren't we? ”
I asked her, "You've been cheating on us?" ”
Narcissus replied: "No, I didn't lie to you, it's all true, my story is true, my Ah Lang is also true, my beloved Ah Lang is long gone, I always knew it, it's just that my skin was sealed here by the magician, trapped for thousands of years, I can't leave." As long as I find the skin, I can leave the Liangfei Tower. ”
"What about the desert? Why do you want to lie to us together? ”
"I said it, I didn't lie to you, as for Limo, he is the son of a coffin, didn't you see it a long time ago? The coffin gives birth to a son, and he is a yin soldier, what is the role of leaving the desert, do you not know? ”
My heart tightened: "Someone sent him to deliberately fix us?" Who will it be? ”
Ling Zheng took over the conversation: "Limo is the person from the Yu family who walks in the Yin Hall. ”
Narcissus looked at Lingzheng appreciatively: "Sir is really extraordinary. Narcissus turned around, "The identity of Mr. Narcissus is not clear, and please don't embarrass Narcissus again, don't leave it at that, take care." ”
"Hmm."
Lingzheng nodded, and Narcissus slowly left, her figure gradually fading and disappearing.
I was shocked and anxious: "Lingzheng, why did you let her leave, at least let her take us out of here?" Whining...... How are we going to get out now? ”
Lingzheng looked at me gently: "Don't worry, get the copper coin first." ”
"Hmph."
I stomped my foot.
"Squeak......" A mouse cry came from the crystal coffin.
Ling's face was shocked, raised his hand, and quickly put the lid of the crystal coffin back in place, then took out the mahogany nails from the backpack, nailed them to the ground at the four corners of the crystal coffin, and then took out the red thread and wrapped the crystal coffin criss-crossed.
I looked down and saw a black rat in the crystal coffin, wandering around inside.
The red line is like a huge net, sealing the crystal coffin tightly, no matter how much the mouse runs, it can't escape, and it is so anxious that it screams.
I asked curiously, "Lingzheng, it's just a mouse, why do you want to be trapped by the red thread?" ”
"The aura here is extremely strong, weird and unpredictable, and it is better to be careful."
Ling Zheng explained a few words lightly, then turned and walked in one direction, and I followed him closely. After walking a short distance, there was a faint white mist around me, and I was a little scared, holding Lingzheng's arm tightly.
After walking for more than ten minutes, the white fog gradually faded, and a pile of fire was seen in the distance.
Lingzheng and I exchanged glances and quickly walked towards the firelight.
King Ling's tomb sat in front of a fire, holding a skinned mouse in his hand, which was roasting on top of the fire, and the smell of meat wafted everywhere, and I couldn't help but feel sick in my stomach. Shen Yan sat opposite King Ling's tomb, her hands on her cheeks, looking at King Ling's tomb in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.
I walked to King Ling's tomb: "Hey, why are you so hungry that you roast mice?" ”
King Ling's tomb was startled, his hand shook, the mouse fell to the ground, he turned around, glared at me fiercely, and then picked up the mouse from the ground, "Dead woman, dare to scare uncle, you will feel good in a while." ”
I stuck out my tongue: "I didn't mean to scare you, who made you feel like you lost your soul." ”
King Ling's tomb roared: "It's not that I'm worried about you and Senior Brother!" ”
Suddenly!
King Ling's tomb was stunned, Lingzheng was also stunned, I was also stunned, Shen Yan looked at King Ling's tomb in surprise, time seemed to be frozen at this moment, the air no longer flowed, and everyone's heartbeat stopped at this moment.
This is the first time that King Ling's Tomb has called Senior Brother Lingzheng!
After a long time, Ling Zheng took a step forward and patted King Ling's shoulder: "Senior brother." ”
"Go away!" King Ling's tomb slapped Ling Zheng's hand indifferently.
King Ling's actions and words were very cold, but his eyes flashed with a sparkling light, I could see clearly, he had deep feelings for the spirit, but he couldn't let go of the obsession in his heart.
I sat down next to King Ling's tomb, took out the water, drank a few sips, and came to my senses.
I asked, "King Ling's tomb, isn't Limo with you?" ”
King Ling's tomb replied: "He took the magic weapon of the narcissus and ran away. ”
"Lingzheng said, Limo is a person sent by the Yu family to go to the Yin Hall, maybe they came for the copper coin, why did you let Limo run away like this? Didn't you chase it? ”
"It's not to wait for you!"
"Oh......"
I rolled my eyes secretly and rested my head on Lingzheng's shoulder: "Lingzheng, you are so fragrant, it seems that sandalwood is mixed with floral fragrance and rouge...... Yes! Speaking of which, I suddenly remembered that there is a similar fragrance on the body of the narcissus, the narcissus has received thousands of years of incense and has been cultivated into a god, it is not strange that there is this fragrance on the body, why does Lingzheng also have this fragrance? Could it be that the Spirit is ......?
I turned my head in surprise and looked at Lingzheng: "Lingzheng, I've known you for more than ten years, and I still don't know which school you are studying from." ”
Lingzheng pinned the broken hair on my forehead behind my ear: "When it's time to tell you, I will naturally tell you, now is not the time, the first day of junior high school, believe me, I am all for your good." ”
"Well, I won't ask, hee-hee."
I hugged Lingzheng's arm, and kissed him through my clothes, his fair face quickly turned red, and I covered my mouth and snickered. Suddenly, Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Shen Yan, she was looking at me, there was a resentful light in her eyes, and I shivered coldly.
I don't have the tomb of King Ling, why does she look at me like this?
"Giggle......
A shrill woman's laugh suddenly rang out.
Ling Zheng pulled me to stand up quickly, Ling Wang Tomb took the roast rat meat, looked around with disdain, Shen Yan didn't move, still sitting on the ground.
"Giggle...... Squeaky ......"
The female voice laughed and laughed, and suddenly squeaked strangely, like the cry of a mouse.
