Chapter 12: The Mysterious House
I was hesitating to go down and take a look, but Hu San also climbed to the top of the wall and asked in a low voice, "What about people?" ”
"I don't know, she's gone when I come up, huh? Look there! "Suddenly, I saw a light flickering in the distance. It wasn't the light of the building, because it was clear that the light was in the scenic area.
"What's that," Hu San muttered.
"I'll take a look, don't follow, you're so badly injured."
Hu San glanced at me, "Don't keep saying that I'm seriously injured, can't I still go, let's go together!" ”
I couldn't resist him, so I had to agree, seeing that there were no shrubs like the ones seen on the Tianqing Mountains under the cliffs, there should be no more worms.
But how to go down the cliff in front of me, I naturally have no problem, let alone more than ten meters, even if it is higher, I can jump down. Of course, this is not a problem for Hu San, but now Hu San's injury is too serious, and he must not be able to jump. Just as I was thinking, I saw Hu San jump, jumped to the bottom of the cliff lightly, and beckoned to me.
Wow, this kid is really not simple, I wonder if he is pretending to be screaming in pain. I jumped to the bottom of the cliff as well. When I looked at it again, there was indeed a small river here, but the grass was growing on the side, so I couldn't see it clearly.
We walked towards the light, and no one spoke, looking warily to the left and right as we went. Although there are no woods here, the possibility of worms or other unknown aggressive creatures cannot be completely ruled out. You must not let your guard down in such a ghost place.
When we got closer, we realized that it was a house that was shining brightly. The strange thing is that this house is very small, and to say small does not mean that the room or courtyard is small, but that it is very short, and the courtyard walls of the house are particularly low, which looks like an animal enclosure. Looking at this, if a person wants to enter the room, he can only do it with a cat's waist.
Although we were outside, we didn't dare to straighten up, for fear that the people inside would find out. In fact, we can't be sure if there's anyone in there at this point, but it's better to be cautious just in case.
When I got to the wall, I leaned against the wall to hear if there was any sound inside, but I didn't hear anything, but Hu San opened his mouth wide. I thought to myself, "This kid has heard something, and he has always heard a lot better in his ears than I do."
I leaned into his ear and asked in a low voice, "What's the situation?" ”
"Worm, worm sound." In the moonlight, Hu San's face turned white, and his voice trembled a little.
Listening to him say this, is this the hometown of the worm? I slowly stretched my waist, carefully raised my head, and looked into the courtyard, and the strange tomb in front of me almost scared me out.
I saw that there were four mini-houses in the courtyard, almost half the height of ordinary rooms, and there were four lanterns lit under the eaves, and the light we saw before should have come from the lanterns. The style of the house is a bit like a rural mud house, with a black tile roof and mud walls. The windows and doors were black and there was no light inside.
Looking at the four pots in the courtyard, I can't be sure what they are, and it's still steaming, so I don't know if it's boiling water. What struck me the most was that there were countless small worms crawling out of the steaming pot, which were the same size as ordinary ones. They crawl out of the pan, snap and fall to the ground, and then crawl around.
I saw countless small worms crawling around in the courtyard, but they were all far away from the courtyard wall, and there might be something that made them afraid to approach.
At this time, I saw two red lights appear at the door in the middle of the house, and the red light slowly floated out, and I saw that it grew on a person's body, and the red light was emitted by her eyes!
As soon as I saw this person, my scalp suddenly went numb, and my body began to tremble slightly involuntarily. Because this scene was so weird, I had never been so scared when I was lying in a coffin.
I saw that the person was lying on his body, like a Luo pot and it was very serious, looking at it, if the body was straightened, it could be half higher. Her face was so black that she could barely see her five visions, but her eyes were glowing red. The garment she wore was a long robe, very large, almost half of which was held up to the ground.
He moved forward step by step, unbelievably slow, taking almost dozens of seconds to take a step, and her hands slowly waved in front of her in claw-like shapes.
She didn't seem to see me, because her head was always lowered and never lifted. I didn't dare to breathe when I saw the atmosphere. At this time, Hu San had already stared at the strange person with his head exposed, his expression was even more exaggerated, his mouth was open, and his eyes were like cannons.
Then the person slowly walked to a pot, and out of nowhere she found a big fork, she put the fork into the pot, constantly stirring, of course, the movement was surprisingly slow. At the same time, it also makes a sound similar to coughing, why do you say similar, because it is indeed a coughing sound, but it doesn't sound like a human coughing sound. Listening to this voice gave me goosebumps all over my body.
At this time, countless worms in the courtyard crawled in the direction of the strange man, and finally gathered at her feet, scrambling to climb onto her robe, densely packed, I don't know how many layers were stacked. In the blink of an eye, the robe he held on the ground was covered with the worms. But the strange man didn't care, still stirring his fork there.
Seeing this, I understand a little, it seems that these worms are raised by her, and the pot may be the place where these worms are hatched. At this time, I thought of the guys who attacked us on Tianqing Mountain, and then I saw the person in front of me, I suddenly became angry, could it be that the encounter on the mountain was all instructed by her? Even if it wasn't at her command, it was inseparable from her. Thinking of this, I wanted to turn over and enter the hospital, get rid of that strange person, and vent my anger.
Hu San noticed my move, and he squatted down and pulled my clothes.
"What's wrong?" I kept my voice to a minimum.
"Didn't you notice something wrong with that person?"
I thought to myself, isn't it a waste of words, can a person look like this, her eyes glow red, and there are a lot of worms around her.
I looked at him and didn't speak.
"I mean, did you think she looked familiar?"
Familiar? I was stunned when he said this: "I don't think she is very familiar, but her robe is very similar to the robe worn by the old Taoist aunt." ”
"By the way, that's it, I suspect she has something to do with that old Taoist aunt!"
I chuckled in my heart, if this is the case, wouldn't it be very dangerous for us to stay in that Taoist temple, but when I think of Xiaolian, I don't know why, I have a great sense of trust in her. Since she is the apprentice of the old Daogu, the old Daogu should not be so bad.
