Chapter 459: There are names on the stele
If the position where the shrine collapsed just now had gone further, I am afraid that my whole body would have fallen into this bottomless black hole with the shrine, and it would be impossible for me to still stand here.
Looking at the dark hole in front of me and the stone staircase spreading downward, I couldn't help but feel a chill in my back, and cold sweat was constantly oozing from my body.
Could it be that I accidentally touched some mechanism when I unwrapped the black cloth wrapped in the corpse of the ghost boy just now, so this is why this happened?
But I carefully recalled everything I had just done, and every movement I had been extremely careful in the whole time, and I had not even touched the surroundings of the spiritual bed except for the body of the ghost child, let alone anything like that.
The more this happens, the more unbelievable this sudden happens, and I still can't figure it out after thinking about it for a long time.
As expected, the hole that suddenly appeared in the middle of the tomb was the secret passage leading to the tenth tomb, which surprised me and made me a little worried.
The surprise is that now that the secret passage has appeared on its own, we don't need to waste any more time and energy to continue searching.
The worry is that the timing of the appearance of this secret passage is too coincidental, and the way the secret passage appears is too weird, it feels as if someone has arranged all this, deliberately trying to lead us to the tenth ancient tomb.
"Zhang Sansan, what are you doing standing there, quickly step back." At this time, Li Huiyan's voice sounded behind her.
Hearing this, I finally came to my senses, and quickly took a few steps back away from the dark hole.
I didn't stand at the entrance of the cave for a long time, but it was more than half a minute. I can clearly feel that the breath in the cave is very cold, even colder than the tomb we are in now.
What I want to convey is not that the temperature inside the cave is low, but that the environment inside the cave is very strange, and it belongs to the kind of place where the yin qi is extremely heavy.
"Xiao Yan, you help spread out this black cloth, and I'll put down the corpse of the ghost baby first." I said to Li Huiyan.
Hearing this, Li Huiyan took the black cloth from my hand and quickly spread it on the floor of the tomb, and I carefully placed the corpse of the ghost baby on it.
Because of the sudden appearance of the secret passage in the middle of the tomb, I don't have much to pay attention to what the ghost baby looks like, and I am more concerned about the tenth tomb.
But now that we've opened the black cloth, we still have to pay attention to the appearance of the ghost baby, otherwise we won't be busy in vain.
Just now, when the black cloth bag was opened, I took a look at the ghost baby's back and found that his body was extremely dark, as if he had smeared a layer of ink on his body.
When I saw the front of the ghost baby again, I was stunned again, and I couldn't believe what I saw in my eyes.
In general, the age of the ghost baby is not much different from what Li Huiyan said before, and it looks like a newborn baby or even a little premature.
This also confirms what Li Huiyan said before, saying that ghost babies need to be directly disemboweled out of the womb of pregnant women who are nine months pregnant, and then refined into ghost babies.
Because the surface of the body is not dehydrated, the body of the ghost baby still looks a little chubby, except that the color is almost identical to that of a normal baby.
Of course, this only refers to the body of the ghost baby. If someone turns their gaze to the position of the ghost baby's head, they will find an incredible scene, because there are two human faces on the ghost baby's head.
At first, I was dazzled, but after repeated confirmation, there were indeed two human faces on the ghost baby's head, and the two faces were almost identical.
The only difference is that the color of the two faces is completely different, the one on the left is the same color as the ghost baby's body, showing a pitch-black color like ink, while the face on the right is pale as paper, looking as if it has been bleached with bleach.
It's the first time I've encountered something like this, and I can't help but think of the occasional conjoined baby on the news.
Siamese babies with two faces have also appeared on the news. In addition to this, there are also conjoined babies with two bodies and one head, and two heads and one body, which are real in our lives.
Still, this is the first time I've seen such a conjoined baby appear in front of me, and it should have been a ghost baby who had been dead for more than a thousand years.
Could it be that there were conjoined babies in history, I couldn't help but mutter. Slightly different from the conjoined babies I mentioned earlier, the ghost babies don't look like conjoined babies, but someone deliberately installed an extra human face on his head.
After all, two people function one organ or body, which is very common in conjoined babies, but it is still too incredible to say that there are two completely independent human faces with different colors on one head.
"How the ghost baby can grow into this appearance is really unexpected." I said to myself.
Because I didn't control my voice, my words were also heard by Li Huiyan and Qin Gong on the side.
After I put down the corpse of the ghost baby, neither Li Huiyan nor Qin Gong spoke, and they were obviously attracted by the appearance of the ghost baby, forgetting what to say.
As long as you are a normal person, you will inevitably be attracted when you see the appearance of a ghost baby, which is also human nature.
People are curious about rare things, even if a well-informed person like Li Huiyan must rarely have the opportunity to see such a rare scene, and it is normal to be attracted.
"That's right, it's pretty much the same as I guessed before." After a while, Li Huiyan said.
"Huh? Xiao Yan, have you already guessed what the ghost boy looks like, is there a relevant record in the book you read before? I asked Li Huiyan.
"It's not documented." Li Huiyan shook her head and continued: "Do you remember the life and death and yin and yang faces I mentioned to you before, the records in the book are similar to the appearance of the ghost babies we saw. ”
"Of course I remember this, is it true that growing into a ghost baby is life and death?" I said. I will naturally not forget the appearance of life and death and the yin and yang face, and I have always kept it in my heart since Li Huiyan said it.
It's just that I only heard about it before, and I didn't know what Li Huiyan said about life and death, but now when I saw the appearance of the ghost baby, I finally understood what the so-called life and death looks like.
If as expected, the two strange faces of the ghost baby with different colors on the head are the life and death phases mentioned by Li Huiyan before.
Judging from the color of the two faces of the ghost baby, the white face mostly represents life, while the black face represents death.
Originally, one life and one death meant reincarnation, but now the ghost baby has been refined into such a form by the corpse chaser through special methods, and most of them will never be reborn, which is undoubtedly an irony.
Although I have fantasized many times in my head, until I see this life and death with my own eyes, I still feel that my imagination is not rich enough.
Two distinct human faces on one head were something I never expected.
Just seeing the terrifying and weird appearance of the ghost baby, my already vigilant heart became more vigilant, it was obvious that this ghost baby was not easy to mess with, we had to hurry up and get out of here.
The spirit bed that was originally used to place the corpse of the ghost baby fell into a bottomless black hole with the fall of the shrine, and without the suppression of the few runes drawn out by Qin Gong, no one dared to guarantee that the ghost baby would wake up immediately.
"How, are you scared by the appearance of a ghost baby?" Li Huiyan said on the side.
"I'm not scared much, I just think it's a little strange, I've never seen a human with this kind of look." I shook my head and said.
In front of Li Huiyan, even if I am really scared, I will not admit it, after all, it is too shameless.
"Well, the ghost baby's appearance is indeed a bit peculiar. Although I have seen records of ghost babies before, it is the first time I have seen them with my own eyes, and I also don't know what ghost babies look like before this. Li Huiyan said.
Looking at the ghost baby's black and white faces on the ground, I felt a panic for no reason, and I always felt that something bad was going to happen.
"Qin Gong, the spirit bed is gone now, this ghost baby won't wake up in advance." Just in case, I still asked Qin Gong.
"I don't know much about this, and I haven't encountered anything like this before." Qin Gong said.
"According to what you say, is it possible for Qin Gong to wake up immediately?" I said.
"It's possible, but it's not too likely. I just used the rune under the jade unicorn yin is slightly different from the ordinary rune, once it is printed on the spirit bed, it will directly suppress the body of the ghost baby. Qin Gong said.
Hearing this, my heart was still not at all relaxed, but the feeling of panic became heavier and heavier, and my heartbeat was much faster than at the beginning.
At this moment, I noticed that the white face of the ghost baby suddenly moved, as if it was about to wake up.
I didn't immediately tell Li Huiyan and Qin Gong about this matter, and took a serious look at the ghost baby again, and finally saw the ghost baby lying motionless on the ground.
"Zhang Sansan, there is a sentence I don't know whether to say or not." At the same time, Qin Gong suddenly spoke.
"Say whatever you want, and be embarrassed to say it." I said.
"What I'm going to say has to do with that grimace birthmark on your back, and it is said that people who have a grimace birthmark will walk with ghosts for the rest of their lives." Qin Gong said.
