"This is the shadow puppet." I exclaimed.

As if hearing my words, the shadow puppet looked at me, jumped on the cliff with a stone with vigorous movements, climbed on the cliff like a gecko, burrowed into the gap, and disappeared without a trace.

Uncle Niu knelt beside the stone and said with difficulty: "I don't accept it." ”

After finishing speaking, there was a bang, his body was torn apart, and lonely souls poured out of his body, what I didn't understand was that those lonely souls floated around Uncle Niu in a circle, and they also disappeared into pieces.

"How so?" I muttered.

Yu Hao walked up to me and explained, "They are lonely souls devoured by Niu Chongtian, because there are too many of them, he can't control them all, but the life of these lonely souls is also destroyed by him. ”

I nodded and looked up at Yu Hao, "How did you get out of the cave?" ”

Speaking of this, he also looked confused, and said: "I don't know, I heard your voice a long time ago, but I just couldn't wake up, and I didn't open my eyes until I felt that you were in danger just now." ”

I suppressed the joy of reunion, looked at him suspiciously, turned my head to the other end of the stone, and when I entered the stone door, I was shocked.

The furnishings and arrangements here are roughly the same as those places in the Yin Tomb, with a rune on one side and a Buddha seal on the other, a bronze mirror hanging above the head, a soul-controlling talisman painted on it, and a stone box in the middle.

The only difference is that there is an extra circle of wooden maids.

I walked to the stone box, dared to open it, and suddenly rushed in a few people, I turned my head and saw that it was Qian Zhenghao and the four of them.

They were all disgraced, and they had injuries on their bodies, and they didn't know what they had encountered.

"I'm afraid there is a mechanism, and I can't move it." Qian Zhenghao said nervously.

Fan Rou waved her hand and said, "Impossible, my grandfather and sixth master have said that this is an ordinary stone box." ”

After speaking, she ignored Qian Zhenghao's obstruction and opened the stone box.

When I looked inside, it was still a wooden box.

It seems that this stone chest is the same as the one I have seen before, and further inside are iron chests, silver boxes, and gold boxes.

I whispered to Zheng Huanying, "Didn't you go out a long time ago?" Why did you run back again? It's still like this. ”

Zheng Huanying glanced at me with some guilt, and said: "When we first fled down, we didn't notice that you didn't follow, until we came out of the gap and didn't see it, when the four of us were discussing whether to come back to you, the wooden maid on the Shinto outside the general's mound suddenly moved, and it turned out to be like a human being and could fight, and that thing was wooden, not afraid of pain, and the four of us were forced back here if we couldn't fight." ”

I smiled, but I didn't complain about them in my heart, they were all meeting for the first time, and they didn't have any friendship, if it was me, I would think that I would escape first in the face of life and death.

However, she said that the carpenter can move?

I immediately looked at the wooden maids around me, these won't move, right?

Just thinking about it, Fan Rou exclaimed, I looked over and found that she had taken out the gold box, and after opening it, what was placed inside was still pure gold Ashoka Pagoda and bone beads.

I looked at Yu Hao and saw that he had been staring at the Ashoka Tower.

"Let's ......" Fan Rou turned her head, and before she finished speaking, the wooden maid standing behind her suddenly moved, waving her arm and hitting her back.

"Be careful." I tried to go over and help him, but I found that the wooden servants on all sides had moved, and they were walking towards us with stiff steps.

Fan Rou couldn't dodge, and was beaten by the wooden maid and stumbled, and the Ashoka Pagoda in his hand fell to the ground, falling apart.

I hissed, and my heart ached.

"Back off." Qian Zhenghao said.

We were forced back to the big rocks by the wooden maids, but the wooden servants did not let us go, and continued to go out.

I noticed that the maids had a small hole in their eyes, and if you looked closely, it looked like there were real eyeballs in the holes.

"Go down from the stone wall next to it." Qian Zhenghao said, taking the lead in climbing the stone wall and jumping onto a stone that could accommodate two people to stand.

Only then did I realize that the stone wall here was not smooth, and there were many protruding stones on the stone wall, as if they had been specially set aside.

I also jumped down, and after jumping on the cliff for a long time, we finally saw the flat ground and hurriedly jumped down.

Yu Hao floated to my side.

I glanced at the four of them and made sure that none of them noticed Yu Hao, and I was relieved.

"This is the sacrificial ground." Yu Hao said.

I looked around with a flashlight and found oil lamps on the stone walls on all sides, and when I reached out and touched it, there was kerosene in it, "Quickly light this oil lamp." ”

When I lit the oil lamp in a circle along the stone wall, I always felt that the road under my feet was uneven, and when I completely lit the oil lamp, I couldn't help but exclaim when I looked at the situation on the ground, and along the root of the stone wall there were carved four divine beasts.

Different mythical beasts are carved in different directions, and a dragon is carved in the middle of the flat ground, but it is not colored, and the dragon body is the color of rock, slightly whitish.

Isn't this the same as the pattern on Yu Hao's coffin?

I looked up and saw that the middle of the mountain had been hollowed out, and the cracked crack was tied with iron cables to serve as steps leading to the top of the mountain, and the place where I had fought with Uncle Niu just now was halfway up the mountain.

Based on this distance, our current position should be at the bottom of the mountain.

I was horrified, "I can hollow out the mountain." ”

"You see, there are holes in the stone walls on all sides." Zheng Huanying said.

I looked down and saw a semicircular hole that had been dug out at my feet, and there was a stone platform in the innermost part, just like a kang in a cave.

Caves, caves!

It dawned on me that these holes looked like caves, but they could also be the deformation of cave dwellings, just like the pit villages.

Suddenly, there was a few rumblings, and the ground began to shake, and at the same time, one bag after another appeared on the ground, undulating and undulating, like a dragon swimming on the ground if you didn't look closely.

A chant came from the ground, and dark shadows began to appear on the ground.

Yu Hao said: "Hide in the hole." ”

I didn't hesitate to get into the hole at my feet, and the four of them saw me doing this, and they all got in.

As soon as I entered, there was a burst of mourning outside, and then I saw the team of people carrying Yu Hao's coffin in and resting it in the middle of the flat ground.

After the coffin was lifted, the phantoms on all sides gradually became clear, and they were all a group of people wearing ancient clothes, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing to the coffin.

The chant from the ground was getting louder and louder, and it made my ears hurt, I looked at Qian Zhenghao and them, except for Fan Rou, who was still awake, the others had already fainted.

At this time, Fan Rou stared at the coffin, her eyes revealing unprecedented eagerness.

I chuckled in my heart, she was afraid she knew something.

Yu Hao was originally next to me, but then he actually went to the coffin, I called him, he turned his head to look at me, smiled lightly and said, "Wait for me." ”

After saying that, he floated directly to the coffin and lay down on the coffin board.

The moment he lay down on the coffin, the people who were originally sitting cross-legged next to the coffin all knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the coffin.

This is, another black shadow came out of the ground, wide-sleeved and wide-armed, I could vaguely see that it was a Taoist robe, holding a wooden staff in his hand, and a handful of hair tied to one end, I couldn't tell what kind of animal it was.

He walked up to the coffin, placed the wooden staff in his hand diagonally on the coffin, spread his arms, and began to chant to the top of the mountain.

It turned out that he was the one who sang just now.

Are they sacrificing or praying?

If it is a sacrifice, Yu Hao is the sacrifice; If they pray, they are praying for Yu Hao.

I've never learned this before, and I can't figure it out for a while.

The man chanted for a long time, and the inside suddenly became brighter, and I couldn't help but stretch my neck to look, and found that the direction of the moon was just above the top of the mountain, and the moonlight shone in through the gap in the top of the mountain, covering Yu Hao's coffin.

As soon as the moonlight came in, the man flicked his sleeves and yelled, "Woohoo." ”

The surrounding black shadows raised their arms and shouted, "Woohoo." ”

Listening to it, they were excited.

I shrank in the cave and watched this extremely shocking scene, after thousands of years, I was fortunate enough to witness such a grand ceremony with my own eyes.

With their "whin", those dark shadows gradually turned into bright lights, and after a while, even those who carried the coffins turned into bright light and rose to the top of the mountain along the gaps, and the chanters picked up wooden sticks and walked up with iron ropes in a leisurely manner.

When he arrived at the piece that was broken by Uncle Niu, he paused, turned around and climbed the stone wall and jumped to the top of the mountain with agility.

Fan Rou hurriedly crawled out of the hole and chased after him.

I didn't care about them, so I ran to the coffin as soon as possible and called Yu Hao carefully.

As soon as the words fell, there was a slight clicking sound from the coffin.

I hurriedly lifted the lid of the coffin and saw him lying in the coffin, looking up with a blank face.

When I saw his eyes, I chuckled in my heart.

His eyes were turbulent, as if he suppressed outright hatred, and seemed to be filled with extreme sadness.

"Yu Hao?" I couldn't help but call him.

He looked at me slowly, his eyes moved, and he said in a dumb voice, "From from? ”

I nodded hurriedly, "It's me, it's me, are you okay?" ”

He held the coffin wall up, shook his head and said, "I'm fine." ”

I stared at his face and muttered a little that look really wasn't very good.

Still, he's still alive.

He came out of the coffin, stretched out his hand and touched his heart, stunned for a few seconds, and when he looked at me again, his face was already on the gloomy smile that belonged to the one I knew, warm and warm.

It's just that under this smile today, I felt a cold killing intent.

Yu Hao is back, but he has changed.

He held out his hand to me and said, "Go? ”

Without hesitation, I shook his hand and said with a smile, "Go." ”

No matter what he becomes, I'm going to follow him.

He led me through the gap to the top of the mountain, and then held me in his arms until he got to the top of the mountain.

The blood moon in the air was dark red, and the person who sang stood in the moonlight, leaving only a layer of phantom, as if he felt Yu Hao coming up, he turned his head to look.

An old man's face full of wrinkles came into view, and he looked at Yu Hao and smiled with satisfaction, and his figure disappeared completely.

Yu Hao stood with his hands in his hands, looking up at the blood moon in the sky that was gradually fading, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Ouch, why didn't you record it?"

I suddenly Fan Rou's disappointed voice, looked over and saw her holding a mobile phone in her hand, and said disappointedly.

Seeing me, she said, "Yuan Congcong, did you record the video just now?" ”

I shook my head, I couldn't even care about holding my phone in that situation just now.

Fan Rou said to me with a swagger: "I recorded it, but unfortunately I didn't record the old man, only the blood moon." ”

Yu Hao hugged me up just now, did she see it?

Just thinking about this, Yu Hao said, "I'll wait for you in the store." ”

With that, he jumped down from the top of the mountain.

I want to call him too late, I'm so helpless, why doesn't this dead ghost let me say more, I don't live in the store now.

Fan Rou smiled and said, "What's the matter, the little ghost you raised ran away?" ”

I turned my head to look at her, not admitting or denying it.

She didn't care, clapped her hands and said, "Let's go, let's go down." ”

The two of us climbed to the bottom of the mountain along the iron cable again, and when we went down, we saw that the coffin where Yu Hao was lying had rotted into a pile of wood, and the bones inside had turned into ashes.

Fan Rou said: "The blood moon has returned to the soul, this time I really saw a good show." ”

I chuckled in my heart and casually asked, "Resurrection?" Wasn't that a sacrifice just now? ”

She replied: "What a sacrifice, it is a prayer to the moon to restore the soul, I heard my grandfather say, some ancient families worship the moon as a god, and the blood moon is a symbol of honor." ”

I'm quite curious about this, but after thinking about it carefully, now is not the time to ask, so I didn't speak, and after waking up Qian Zhenghao and the others, I discussed what to do later.

In the end, he came to a unanimous conclusion, went out first, and then notified the sixth master to let him send someone over to deal with the aftermath.

After all, no one wants to stay in this weird place any longer.

We walked through the gap again to the low pit, and the coffins in the caverns that had been dug out around the pit should be rotting, and we did not stop long, but went straight out through the stone gate of the general's mound.

Before going out, Qian Zhenghao also said that we should be careful of the wooden maids outside, but who knew that after we went out, the wooden maids outside had already fallen to the ground.

In order to test my previous suspicions, I broke open the head of one of the wooden maids and looked at it, and found that there was indeed a pair of shriveled eyes inside.

However, this is not quite right.

I looked at the wooden maid on the ground, frowned, and said, "Is there one less wooden maid?" ”

When I came in before, I saw a wooden maid with a look very similar to my father's eyes, but I was too nervous at the time to turn my mind for a while, and now I want to make sure but I can't find the wooden maid.

Zheng Huanying said: "I really didn't pay attention to how many wooden maids there were. ”

I got up from the ground, thought about it, and didn't dwell on it anymore, it didn't get better, at least it means that my dad didn't have an accident.

When Qian Zhenghao contacted the sixth master, there was a sudden rumbling behind him, and I turned my head to look at it in hindsight, and found that the general's mound had collapsed just now.

In addition to being afraid, I also breathed a sigh of relief, at least they would not find out about Yu Hao's existence again.

After the sixth master's people arrived, the five of us took the car back to the city, simply packed up and flew back to see the sixth master, this time the sixth master didn't ask much, after hearing us say that Uncle Niu's soul was scattered, he let us go, and didn't mention letting me see the sixth face.

I have some drums in my heart, is the sixth master not satisfied?
