The cellar was very dark, weirdly black, Zhou Hexuan couldn't see anything, he could only grope his way down and climb down......

Fortunately, this cellar is not deep, it is estimated to be only three or four meters, and it didn't take long for Zhou Hexuan's feet to step on the ground.

Zhou Hexuan leaned on the ladder and turned around, and only then did he slowly see some things clearly, but compared to the outside, he was like an ordinary person in the dark at this time.

However, this cellar is not big, looking at the size of an ordinary cellar, there is nothing in the cellar, no, Zhou Hexuan quickly found one thing, the pot, a large iron pot twice the size of an ordinary pot was covered on the ground backwards.

Zhou Hexuan's heart moved, and he had an intuition that this pot must be the cauldron that disappeared on the threshing floor.

Could it be the old man's bones under the lid of the pot?

Zhou Hexuan couldn't help but think in his heart, with such a thought, Zhou Hexuan instinctively leaned towards the pot, and stretched out his hand to open the pot, but at this moment, a somewhat hoarse voice sounded in Zhou Hexuan's ears.

"If you don't want to die here, don't touch it......"

Although the voice was very peaceful and did not carry the slightest murderous aura, it fell on Zhou Hexuan's ears but made him freeze there, because this voice was too familiar to him, and the owner of this voice had just spoken to him not long ago.

Zhou Hexuan turned his head slowly, and the figure of the old man stood behind him, looking at him movingly.

Zhou Hexuan swallowed his saliva secretly, and the air in the cellar seemed to freeze instantly, quietly without the slightest sound, which made Zhou Hexuan's heart more and more impatient......

At this time, the old man finally spoke.

"Originally, I didn't want an innocent person to be involved, but she sent you here again and again, and now it seems that she doesn't want to let you go...... Eh......"

The old man seemed to be talking to Zhou Hexuan, and he seemed to be talking to himself, and a trace of loneliness flashed on his face.

But these words fell into Zhou Hexuan's ears, but he was a little unclear So, this old man seems to have some secrets hidden in his body that he doesn't know, or rather, the mother-in-law deliberately omitted something that she didn't tell herself.......

The old man didn't seem to care what Zhou Hexuan was thinking in his heart, or whether he was willing to listen to it or not, so he said it to himself.

"Four years ago, this was still a very simple village, up and down the sum of hundreds of families, all of which were handed down by an ancestor, so no matter who we talked about, we were relatives in this village, so there were few things in the village about the price increase and the Li family, but this harmony was broken four years ago......

There was a famine in the village, food could not be grown, everyone could only rely on the surplus to survive, and the days were so hard, at first the big guys could still help left and right, and they thought that it would be good to survive this time, but things were not as we thought......

A cold winter passed, everything withered, but we failed to usher in the spring flowers, drinking water cut off, we can only rely on the only well in the village to survive, even drinking water is gone, and the water brought to farm, the spring ploughing season has passed, at this time all people realize what they have to face, in the face of death, family affection is often the most fragile, the original harmonious village finally had a dispute, and to go to such a thing is still happening day by day, but fortunately I and my wife have no children under their knees, They are even more dependent on each other, and they don't get entangled with other people, and the outside world has little to do with us......

But the famine continued, and at this time some of the young people finally could not bear the days of gnawing on the bark and digging up the roots of the grass, and they decided to go out and see, maybe the outside was not the same as in the village, and when they left, they said, if there was no famine outside, they would come back and tell us, they were gone, and the people in the village had hope, and there was much less quarrel......

But the days did not last long, and the young men who had left the village returned, one by one, even more miserable than when they left, saying that the outside world was the same as in the village, that there was nothing to eat, and that they had nothing to say.......

But since that time, the young people who had left the village have always gathered, and the villagers did not pay much attention to it, and the time passed day by day, and soon all the grass roots and bark that could fill their stomachs were gnawed away, and now all that was left to eat was dirt......

Everyone in the village is starving, including my wife and I.

Hunger is a terrible thing, he can make people crazy, and soon, someone in the village can't hold it anymore, they commit suicide, everyone in the village goes, but no one grieves for him, everyone grieves for themselves, because they know that if there is no more food, they will end up like that person.......

The suicide did not change much in the village, and the corpses of the villagers were hastily buried outside the village.

But a few days later, someone suddenly found that the buried body was gone, and for a while rumors spread in the village, saying everything, but at that time no one thought that anyone would eat human flesh.......

But it didn't take long for this to happen again, because of hunger, people in the village slowly either couldn't hold on and committed suicide or starved to death, all of them were just hastily buried outside the village, and no one experienced any funeral, but the next day, people in the village found that the corpses they had just bought were missing again, and this time there was an uproar in the village.......

Everyone began to be suspicious of the people around them, after all, our village is the only mountain village within a radius of dozens of miles, and it is impossible for people from other villages to come and dig up the corpses overnight.......

If there is suspicion, the matter will naturally be hidden, after all, the village is so big, more or less related to the family, and soon the whole village will know that it is the young people who came back from outside to steal the body......

The village soon found them, and they did not deny it themselves, they said that the outside of the village had already begun to eat the dead to fill their stomachs, and if they didn't eat, then you could only sit and wait for death......

The people of the village couldn't accept it at first, but the thought that they would become meat in other people's mouths when they died made everyone's hearts change......

Dead people happen every day, and many old people and children die if they can't survive it, but this time...... But no one went to bury their corpses, and I don't know where the young men found a cauldron, and they set it up on the threshing floor at the east end of the village, where there was no longer any grain, and there was a pillar in the middle of the threshing floor, which was originally used to tie up the livestock, but then it became a bolt man......

Everyone had something to eat, and naturally no one died of hunger anymore, and when the dead were gone, there was naturally no food, and slowly, those young people had other actions......

One by one, the people in the village disappeared, and the cauldron in the threshing floor was set up again, and everyone had meat to eat again.......

But this does not include our old couple, such a thing is unacceptable to us, so we have been hiding in our own home, there is still some food at home, which was originally intended to be kept for spring ploughing, but spring ploughing has not been carried out, we can only eat these seeds as food, we can't eat human flesh......

Those villagers didn't care about our old couple at first, we didn't go, they could eat more human flesh, you don't know, the eyes of the people who eat human flesh are red, suddenly one day, everyone rushed into the yard of my house, they directly tied up our old couple, no matter how we shouted and scolded, they carried us directly to the threshing floor......

The water in the pot on the threshing floor was already boiling and boiling, and we were tied to the pillar, and when we went down, my wife's head was cut off by them, and the head was at my feet, and I could still look down to see her face, but those people ignored this, and just picked up my wife's head and threw it in the pot.......

At that time I thought that I was going to die, no, I was already dead, I didn't struggle anymore, I just waited for them to come down to me, but at this time, a stranger came to our village, no, it should be said that a strange monk.......

The monk's name is Sanhuan, this should be his legal name, we countrymen don't understand this, those villagers who have red eyes see people from other villages entering the village, and they immediately want to start to catch the monk Sanhuan, at this time they are not people at all, they are beasts, and those who kill this village may have some scruples, but a person from another village, in their eyes, is a pile of meat given to them by God......

But the monk Sanhuan is very powerful, he carries a ring knife with him, and he does not have the slightest compassion for the villagers, and soon, so the villagers are dead, all die under his knife, I thought I would also die, but he was sure to put it down from the wooden pillar, and the first thing he said was: "If the Buddha wants to punish the world, then all the sins will be punished on him......."

This monk Sanhuan not only didn't kill me, but also gave me some food, all of which were some bread, but he himself carried the names of the villages he killed to the outside of the village and buried them, not only did he kill them, but those who were eaten and only bones were also picked up by him one by one and buried outside the village......

In the end, only the headless body of my wife remained, and the head had already been boiled by the pot of hot water, and the monk Sanhuan fished my wife's head out of the pot, and said, "The cannibal enters the hell of Abi, and the dead will be in the world......

Because my wife was dead and her body was still there, he didn't bury her directly, he said that he would have to spend three days before he could send her to the Western Pure Land, but after three days, he shook his head at me.......

He left, but I was asked to bury my wife's body in the middle of the cemetery, and the head was to be left behind, and the pot was used to hold it down, so that the corpses could not meet, and all the resentment was left in this head, so that there would be a day of transcendence.......

When the monk left, I asked me to leave together, but I still chose to stay, I didn't want to leave her alone here, the monk Sanhuan didn't force it, only left me his ring knife.......

I locked up this cellar and I killed myself in the end, and in that kitchen, I waited here until one day she would come back, but two years had passed, and she never came back to see me, until you came, and I knew that she hadn't been .......able to put it down."
