Chapter Sixty-Eight, Human Skin
At this moment, suddenly a piece of clothing fluttered in the white robe, I hurriedly beckoned the master to point to the direction of the change just now, the master also responded solemnly, looking at the outline in the dark, a white robe did seem to have something, but it happened to be blocked by a vertical pillar, and it was not real.
I was about to climb over the beam with my umbrella sword to take a look, but the master gestured at me to tell me not to move yet.
I am anxious in my heart, since I entered the hall, the white-robed ghost has been pestering us, and almost made us suffer a big loss several times, and at this moment I found that there is no reason not to make it? .
The master saw my thoughts and whispered to us: "Don't worry, although the umbrella sword in your hand is sharp, if you encounter a powerful ghost, it will have no effect on them, and the mercury will not be able to spread for a while, you stay here, I will go up first to see if it is a witch robe or a powerful ghost hiding in it."
Since ancient times, witches, wizards, most of them have mastered some evil arts to demagogue, if some powerful witches, can communicate with gods and ghosts, want to become a witch or witch, there are strict requirements, first of all, to ensure that it is a woman born in the lunar year, the moon and the cloud, but also the body of a virgin who is not ordinary, once the first witchcraft is started, if you have sex with people in the future, it will be considered disrespectful to the gods and ghosts and lead to backlash, and you will die violently within three days.
Like this kind of person, because he often deals with ghosts and monsters in his life, he is destined not to get married and have children, and he is also known as a broken root person, but he has a very high position in the powerful people and has a certain right to speak.
I didn't worry about the master, so I asked the little monk for the demon pestle, looked at the mercury under the ground, held my breath, and followed the master to climb from the wooden beam towards the white robe.
The clothes turned out to be windless automatic, and at first glance it was strange to seep people, and the master held a peachwood sword and saw that he groped in front of him, and stabbed forward. There was indeed a corpse in the clothes, but it was not that terrible ghost, and after the master stabbed the sword, it suddenly dried up like a deflated ball.
Seeing that there was no danger, the master beckoned me to come and look, and this sight suddenly made my heart beat wildly, it turned out that this was not a corpse, but a complete human skin, the face was covered by scattered long hair, only a narrow slit in the middle was exposed, and the head hung down and did not move at all.
After the master poked the sword just now, the air in the human skin was quickly released, so that it dried up. Now I was holding the torch and looking towards the nearest ones, and most of the white robes had an inflatable human skin.
The distance just now, coupled with the limited lighting of the torches, we always thought that it was just the white robe we saw at the beginning, but we didn't think that there was a human skin inside.
The little monk and Nini suddenly screamed, and the master and I hurriedly looked back, and the little monk pointed to a white robe and shouted at us with a pale face: "Corpse...... Corpse? ”。
It turned out that the two of them slipped towards this side in fear when they saw us walking, but they accidentally found the human skin in a white robe next to them, and they screamed in fright.
I shouted at them, "It's okay, it's just some human skin, be careful and come first".
I discussed it with my master and decided to find out what these skins were doing first, so that I could feel at ease, the ghost just now didn't know where to hide, but we could only remain vigilant, in case it found an opportunity, we would be in danger. ‘
The little monk and Nini also climbed over smoothly, and after we were together, I said, "His grandmother's, I have to see what these things are today, if I find that the piece is wrong, we will just give him all a fire, so as not to leave trouble, I don't believe that even if he is a ghost, he can still not be afraid of fire?"
Although the darkness in the hall and the human skin in front of me are so weird, after all, Zhang Daoyi, a descendant of Maoshan Mountain, is standing behind me, thinking of this, his courage is also strong, so he rubbed half a meter forward on the main beam, planning to pull back a relatively close human skin corpse to study and study.
I reached out and grabbed a humanoid corpse next to me, which was just about the same height as the corpse as it hung over the beam, and the face was full of air and expressionless in the light of the torches. I saw that the face was flushed with air due to the loss of skin and bones, and it looked a little puffy, but it was so white, not the kind of dead man white without blood, but because of the heavy makeup, a thick layer of powder, two pieces of red rouge on the cheeks, and the red lips were closed.
Just as I reached out to grab the female corpse's hair and let him pull it over like a balloon, suddenly the female corpse's swollen eyes suddenly opened, and a weird smile appeared on the corner of her mouth and sneered at me: "Hey, hey, hey, hum, giggle......" In the silent darkness, the laughter made the blood almost freeze.
Although I had been on guard against ghosts, I didn't expect this human skin to suddenly open his eyes and smile at me, so frightened that he quickly let go and hurriedly retreated, but unexpectedly lost his balance, his body shook, and he fell off the main beam. I thought to myself that it was over, this time, as the little monk said, I had to become a mercury doll if I fell.
But the body was suddenly pulled, and when I opened my eyes, it turned out that Nini grabbed me at the critical moment, Nini's strength was already small, plus the inertia of my fall, and suddenly fell down, and at the critical moment, I hooked the beam with my legs, so that the two of us would not fall together into the mercury that was still rising below.
But the torch in my hand fell at this moment, and as soon as I touched the mercury, it was annihilated in it, and in an instant, I saw the mercury shaking in the firelight, and a thought suddenly appeared in my heart. There are many strange and dangerous places in the apse of this cemetery, especially the mercury mechanism accidentally triggered by the little monk, although the exit is blocked, and most of the halls are gold brick and stone walls, but most of the tiles on the top are made of white marble, as long as you climb the beam, you can easily break through and escape.
The mechanism here is like a box surrounded by iron walls and without the slightest defense on it, even if there is mercury filling the apse, but there is no way out, so what is the point of filling the apse with mercury? Isn't it to deal with invading tomb robbers, but to bury a certain ...... hidden in this apse with a large amount of mercury Secret.......
I fell off a large wooden beam and was caught by Nini and hung in the air. As soon as I thought of the mercury mechanism in this apse, maybe I wanted to keep some secret, I felt my waist loosen, and then I heard Nini's hard shout: "Stinky boy, why are you so heavy, why don't you hurry up and think about something?" I'm about to run out of you? “。
As soon as I heard this, I came back to my senses and hurriedly said to Nini: "Good senior sister, beautiful senior sister, don't let go, if you let go, I will die."
The master dragged Nini back to the beam, grabbed my hand and scolded: "I'm about to die and I'm still in the mood to joke, I found that your kid is getting more and more like the little bald man, and I haven't learned how to talk but practice very well, and I have to clean up when I go back." Scolding and scolding, but slowly dragging me back to the wooden beam.
