Chapter 1305: A Twisted World (1)
Cherish what you have now, and maybe the next second, it won't be yours anymore.
This sentence perfectly corresponds to my current mood. If you know it earlier, you don't hesitate much, even if it's a second, I'm afraid the exit won't disappear. Or, I shouldn't have come in at all, reason told me it was dangerous, but I still subconsciously wanted to run in to see what was going on.
Now that I see it, I have become a turtle in an urn.
After the exit disappeared, I looked at Bai Qing.
"Why don't you walk around the tomb and see if you can find the exit?" She weakly suggested.
"That's all there is to it." I sighed, thinking to myself that I would casually look for Mu Ru and the two of them again to see whether they were dead or alive. These two guys hadn't screamed since we came in, making this weird-looking deep underground space even more dangerous.
With the stone tablet engraved with a 100-character mantra as the center point, the two of us carefully circled in circles. After walking cautiously for about five minutes, the stone monument that obscured the view revealed the scenery behind it.
I couldn't help but stop.
Behind the stele is a raised bluestone platform, like a huge stone coffin. Next to the coffin were many offerings, as well as an ever-bright lamp. There is also a wooden coffin next to the sarcophagus, the surface of the black coffin is coated with a layer of red blood, and it exudes an evil aura under the illumination of the everlasting lamp.
Bai Qing's psychological endurance was obviously not as good as Bai Shan's, she grabbed my arm tightly and swallowed her saliva quietly.
Not far from the wooden coffin, two people fell upside down. One is Mu Ru and the other is Zhou Yu. The two of them did not move, not knowing whether they were alive or dead.
"Night handsome guy, look at that wooden coffin." Bai Qing whispered nervously: "It seems to have been turned on." ”
The wooden coffin had obviously just been brought in, and the lid of the coffin had indeed been lifted, and upon closer inspection, the nine-foot-long coffin nails were scattered all over the ground. The lid even flew to the east more than ten meters away.
"Really cheated the corpse?" Bai Qing hid behind me in fear: "There are zombies!" ”
"There are no real zombies in this world, I think there is another reason." I suppressed the fear in my heart and watched silently. Something unusual was soon discovered.
"The lid of the coffin was opened from the outside." I licked my dry lips.
Bai Qing poked her head out and took a look, although the coffin lid was far away, she could barely see the traces of brokenness on the outside. Someone or something must have lifted the lid directly.
How much power does this require? The coffin wood is made of local wood and is heavy. Although the lid is not big, it is also full of materials, at least dozens of pounds. Moreover, the nine-inch-long coffin nail was secretly nailed to the lid, and it was definitely not possible to do it by manpower to separate it in a single blow.
In the tomb, there are not only me, Bai Qing, Mu Ru and Zhou Yu, but also the corpse lying in the coffin. I'm afraid there's something else!
I was wary and quickly scanned the space around me. However, the surroundings were quiet, there was a sound of landing, there was a dead silence, and there was no wind in the sealed space. I don't hear any unusual sounds in my ears. We stayed for more than ten minutes and didn't see any danger.
"Let's go over and see." I pointed to Mu Ru and the others, who fell to the ground about fifty meters away from us, not far away. In this place where there is no exit, there is no way to escape, so you can only look for clues first.
Bai Qing didn't object, her current personality likes to be startled, but from her exaggerated expression, she really has a deep coldness and calmness in her eyes. It shows that she doesn't really care.
I approached Mu Ru step by step, and first walked to the coffin lid. The entire coffin lid is made of fir wood, which is characteristic of temperate semi-arid climates. The paint on the surface is new, but the lid is indeed coated with blood, which is chicken blood. There are still pinches of chicken feathers on the chicken's blood.
"It seems that the human corpse in the coffin is also a tribute." I quickly understood why the wooden coffin had been specially brought in and placed next to this huge ancient stone coffin: "It was to sacrifice to some evil creature in the stone coffin that had been suppressed by the Hundred Characters Mantra." ”
"Something else with a human corpse?" Bai Qing blinked: "It's a little interesting, generally speaking, if you sacrifice, shouldn't you use a living person?" ”
"Human sacrifice occurs only in the age of ignorance. In fact, in Chinese customs, the appeasement of evil objects, the longer the corpse of the long-lived, the more effective it is. Because it has been aged over time and over time, it is valuable even if it is a corpse. To be clear, the old man in the coffin has lived for more than 130 years. "I sank down and found something again. On the side of the coffin lid, there are also a few lines of small letters. The Shaanxi dialect is used, and the method of engraving the text is also very ancient. These writings and engraving techniques have been lost for a long time.
The approximate meaning of the full text is: Zhang Xiuquan died on March 21. He was 132 years old. Zhangjiaya Village is the worship of the reincarnation village, and the full-time breeding of the elderly over 100 years old is allowed to send their bodies to the reincarnation village as sacrifices for the ancient tomb after their death. Samsara Village is the guardian of the ancient tomb, which has been guarded here for 700 years.
This line of words made my whole body go into a trance. What's going on? I thought that my current location should be Zhangjiaya Village, which is far away from Samsara Village, but after a long time, it turned out that this is still the boundary of Samsara Village.
Where is this mountain? Where is the Reincarnation Mental Hospital?
Looking at the payment again, it says the time: March 21, 1987.
In 1987? I was surprised, and I was even more confused. Looking at the coffin lid, it was obvious that it had just been painted for a long time. How could it have been twenty-six years ago? What does the engraver have to do to engrave 2013 into 1987? The problem is that the year is wrong, and the date can't be wrong. It's been April since I entered the mental hospital, and I've been locked up for so long, time must have passed until May.
No, what's wrong? The weather, the climate, the air, or this weird and twisted world?
Thinking is like a mess, no matter how you reason, you can't figure it out. Bai Qing tugged at my sleeve: "Your face is a little wrong." ”
I glared at her fiercely, then shook my head vigorously, "Let's go see those two first." ”
I didn't want to think too much, and the two of us slowly came to the vicinity of the fallen Zhou Yu. He was dead of rage, and something had eaten his neck. Looking at the wound marks, the tooth marks are difficult to distinguish, but each tooth is as sharp as an iron nail. This reminded me of Bai Shan, who I met by the lotus pond before entering the seventh floor.
