"How did they come to be like this," I asked, grabbing Daito. , The Witch God Ji reads the latest chapter of this book #

"Get their bodies out first, and I'll explain to you slowly."

"Corpse," I exclaimed, an evil fire bubbled out of my heart, and I couldn't help but shout to Dadong, "You mean they're dead, why do you say that, aren't you here for the first time, why make a presumptuous assertion?"

Dadong glared at me coldly, didn't say a word, raised the Miao knife, stuck straight into the transparent part of the mound, and then made a backhand blow. Hearing only a "bang", the blade instantly cut a hole more than a meter long on the surface of the thing.

Before I could react, a foul smell hit my face. I held my breath, but soon realized that it was the stench of corpses

Although at this moment, my whole body is enveloped by a sense of despair, but I still do not give up. With a cold face, I stepped forward and grabbed the opening with my hands, tearing it with my bare hands like tearing cloth. The opening grew wider in my hands.

When the contents were fully presented to us, I looked at them and immediately understood why Dadong didn't need to look at them to know that they were dead

I saw a group of more than a dozen people, just like when Dadong was in a coma just now, standing stunned, the clothes on their bodies seemed to be torn and hung, and their skin was rotten.

"It's them," Dadong said lightly, "They died by illusion." ”

I don't know why, I didn't dare to respond to Dadong's words, I didn't dare to look at the faces of these people, my eyes didn't know where to go, but even so, I still recognized the clothes of that era.

I seemed to see my sister-in-law's face, even though she was already a cold corpse, she still looked so young. I remember that she was the most dressed of the aunts, and she loved to wear lipstick and smile so sweetly. I remember the year she got married, it was my dad who put her on the float

My heart was so sad that I didn't dare to think about my sister-in-law anymore. I don't know if I'll see my parents' faces, but if I do, I don't think I can stand it.

Although I kept telling Dadong that I had thought very clearly before I came, in fact, when everything happened, I realized that I was not prepared at all.

I covered my eyes, trying not to let the sour sensation continue to spread on my face.

Turning my back slowly, for a moment, my mind went blank

"This stinky skin-like thing is the seed of the horse chestnut tree that only germinated." Dadong explained lightly. Although it was none of his business to act as he tried to act at the moment, I could hear that his voice changed slightly as he spoke.

Did he also see the body of the man he was looking for?

What is his mood at the moment, is he as sad and depressed as me, Dadong is always cold in front of me, will he really be sad for someone or something

I looked at him cautiously, but if he hadn't disguised himself so well, I couldn't see any emotion on his face.

"The horse chestnut tree is the herb that those Xuanyuan people are looking for, although the leaves of this tree can save lives, but the seeds must not be close to the corpse. Because the seeds of this tree eat scavengers, they like to take root in the body of the carrion. If it is rooted in the soil, it will be fine, but once it takes root and sprouts through the corpse, it will change qualitatively, and I don't know what it will become. Some people say that they will turn into man-eating youkai, and that the eaten corpse will also become part of the tree, providing nourishment to the tree until it completely decays.

I guess there must be some of these 16 people carrying the seeds of the horse chestnut tree. It was precisely because the tree loved to eat scavengers that when I saw this thing for the first time, I knew that the person inside must be dead. ”

Dadong's words suddenly reminded me of the crooked-necked tree of "One Stone Bun". Speaking of which, could it be that the crooked-necked tree is the "horse chestnut dryad" who ate the corpse

I thought about something else in my head, and suddenly I didn't feel so sad. I rubbed my hand on my face, looked up at Dadong, and asked, "I don't want these people to be eaten by trees, what should I do?"

"It can only be burned by fire." Dadong said, suddenly turned around and pressed on my shoulder, "Okay, I didn't misread you." ”

I didn't know what he meant, I shook my head, "I know when to do something, you don't have to worry about me, I'm still holding on." ”

"That's good." Dadong nodded, "Yoko, you look weak and untouchable, but sometimes, doing some things and thinking about some problems, even I have to look at you differently." ”

Gotta get it, I said in my heart that it's okay to pat yourself on the back, I'm really not used to you saying this. So he shook his head and wiped his hand off my shoulder. I turned and whistled to the girls in the distance.

The group gathered together and explained to each other, and while getting the corpse out of the stinky skin, they discussed the next countermeasures. The group was very righteous, and no one complained about anything.

Right now, the first thing to do is to get rid of the corpses. But it's too risky to light the fire directly here, not to mention whether the oxygen will run out, and it will not be good in case the house burns down. So we researched it and decided to find a way out first, and then slowly transport the body out.

With a few of us, it is impossible to take all the corpses out of this garden, and the best choice is to cremate them, at most bring some ashes back, and give these ancestors an explanation.

The girl looks delicate, but at this time, she didn't say a word to help carry the corpse. I guess the corpse may have been affected by the stinky skin, and I can't tell how long it was dead. Although I am very sorry for the ancestors, the smell is so stinky that I plug my nostrils with a tissue given by the girl, and I still feel panicked.

It's easy to get all the bodies out and put them away. I counted it, and a flash of light flashed through my head.

"9 clubs" I said to the big host, "a few people are missing"

"Well, it's not going to all die here." Dadong said, "Maybe there are still people alive." ”

I nodded yes, and although I was sad on the one hand, on the other hand, I still kindled some small hope because I found that my parents' bodies were not among them.

My dad's mysterious whereabouts are not to be mentioned, but my mother is actually very recognizable, she wears long braids at all times, and although the corpses of the three women here have all been changed beyond recognition, none of them are like this.

Among the corpses of the 9 clubs, there were three people who were dressed exactly like those Xuanyuan people, and I knew that these were the people Dadong was looking for.

Dadong once said that he was looking for his adoptive father. I looked closely, and there was indeed an old man with a big beard. The old man was tall and muscular, I don't know if it was an illusion, although he was dead, but he always felt that his face, especially between Qi Yu, was still a little similar to Dadong.

Dadong looked at him stunned for a long, long time, and finally sighed deeply.

Dadong once said that there was something he wanted to ask this person, and I didn't know what he wanted to ask, and I thought to myself, so maybe he would never know the answer.

"Xiao Yangzi, you said that these people are really weird." Moistened the handkerchief with water, the girl wiped her hands and cheeks, and her dirty little face became white and red, and it was much clearer all of a sudden.

"I don't understand, they trekked through mountains and rivers, died nine times in their lives, and finally went down to this ground, for what they were looking for, it was such an empty house, and they ended up putting their lives into it."

"That won't be." I shook my head, "There must be a reason why they're here." ”

When I said this, I remembered that the "Ba" of the "Tulimen" reads, "All mysterious and unsolved things can be found in the Mizi Garden."

The "answer" that those 16 people are looking for will certainly not be just an empty room, and if so, it is also because there is something more special about this room, but we have not yet figured it out.

I pondered with my head bored, thinking about what happened to these 9 people after they came here, I sorted out the clues in my head again, and sorted out a rough idea that after they entered the Mizi Garden, they divided into two ways, all the way to Jiaxiu Tower, down to the ground, and did not hesitate to destroy the mechanism of the golden bell to enter this secret room. Unexpectedly, in the end, he fell for the illusion and died miserably here. On the other side was my second uncle, who died in the "One Stone Bun". There are also my parents and another person who are still missing. I don't know if they entered the chamber and escaped, or if they didn't come at all.

Countless clues were slowly pieced together, and the whereabouts of that group of people back then have become clearer and clearer. It seems that Dadong is right to ask me to "count people's heads", and although this method is rude, it is the simplest and most efficient.

I was still thinking about the problem in my head, but I heard a few Xuanyuan people shouting not far away. I couldn't understand what they were saying, but they stood by the wall talking as if they had discovered something. Dadong ran over and said a few words, beckoning us to go too.

Before leaving, I suddenly thought of my discarded flashlight, looked at the corpses again, and a greedy thought rose in my heart. I silently chanted "Amitabha" in my heart, reaching out and groping among the corpses, trying to find a flashlight to come out. I thought that if I borrowed it from my own family anyway, my uncles and aunts shouldn't blame me.

Looking at these corpses, I still have some fear in my heart, but my heart is already much stronger than before. As I touched it, I suddenly noticed a male corpse holding something in his hand. I was overjoyed, and I hurriedly reached out to take it, only to find out that it was not a flashlight, but a metal stick~ Search the basket color, and you can read the following chapters in full
