Chapter Twenty-Three: Midnight Dawn
On the flat ground, the hand of the Great Elder who was about to grab the hemp rope was grabbed by Peng Sanyue. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Do what?" The Great Elder looked at Peng Sanyue puzzled.
Peng Sanyue said: "The elders are already high, let them go to these things." ”
The Great Elder seemed to be told something, and his hand holding the hemp rope loosened slightly, and sighed: "It's old, it's old..."
Although the Peng family can not die, they will still get sick from old age, and various physical functions will decline year by year, which is the same as normal people, so the Peng family will have the rule of cremating the family elders who are eighty or ninety years old, otherwise if they are allowed to grow old, I am afraid that they will only become an old monster paralyzed in bed all year round.
The Great Elder finally let go of his hand and turned his head to look at the Second Elder, "What do you say?" ”
The second elder still had a calm face: "Since there are people who can do what we can't do, let them worry about it, but," the second elder looked around the wellhead, "I'm afraid that if there is any abnormality, we still have to make some preparations in advance." ”
Peng Li breathed a sigh of relief, arched his hands and made a gesture to the two elders: "Sanyue, let's go and prepare." With that, he walked towards the house.
"It's time for the Peng family's affairs to come to an end." The second elder also walked back to the room as he spoke, leaving the Great Elder standing in place, staring at the mouth of the well.
・・・・・・・
It was a jet-black coffin, and the pestle was standing upright in front of the three of them.
"What about the walking corpse?" Xie Xiaolou looked around, the area of this well was not very large, it was about the size of his bedroom, and it was clear at a glance, so he didn't see any traces of the walking corpse.
"Got in." Peng Li said.
Obviously, the only thing that can enter from here is the coffin in front of you.
Xie Xiaolou found out that the coffin was not completely closed, leaving a gap that was wide for one person, and it was obvious that the coffin was pushed open from the side.
Peng Li put down the emergency light and stepped forward, trying to remove all the lid of the coffin, but he found that he only moved the lid a little distance with his strength to feed.
"Little monk come and try." Seeing that Peng Li was struggling, he went up to help.
I saw him take a deep breath, then put his hands into palms, and put his hands on the side of the coffin lid, and then with a force, the coffin lid made a "creaking" sound, and was slowly pushed aside by the unquit at a speed that could be seen by the naked eye.
The gap between the coffin lid and the coffin became larger and larger, and Peng Li's face became more and more solemn.
When the coffin lid was completely pushed open, Xie Xiaolou also found out that something was wrong: where was there still the shadow of a walking corpse in the coffin!
The most surprising was Peng Li, he was the first to jump down, and he also watched the walking corpse go in with his own eyes, but where did the walking corpse go at this moment?
He hurriedly lifted the emergency light and shone it over, only to see that the coffin was pitch black, and the light of the emergency light shone into it as if it had shone into a deep cave, and he couldn't even see the light point, and the light seemed to be cut off by the darkness.
"It looks like it's a deep passage, but I don't know where it leads." Peng Li stood in front of the coffin and analyzed.
"Let's go, this person has gone to great lengths, obviously he wants that walking corpse to take us here, maybe the other end of this passage is the source of your Peng family's curse." Xie Xiaolou doubted when he picked up the corpse, the maggot's method of refining the corpse, who else in the world today could there be besides the corpse Dao person? It seems that the curse of the Peng family is also inseparable from the corpse Taoist, and the walking corpse is like a key that the corpse Taoist deliberately left in the Peng family, and the ultimate purpose is to open the "door" in front of him.
Realizing this, even if Peng Li didn't go in, Xie Xiaolou would rush in desperately.
"Okay, act on the opportunity." Peng Li agreed, and then walked into the coffin first with an emergency light.
Xie Xiaolou and the non-quit fish entered.
When the three of them entered the coffin, they found that the emergency light was even more useless, even if Peng Li turned on to the maximum brightness, it could only illuminate a little range in front of the three people, and the line of sight was still dark.
On the left and right sides, there was no such thing as a wall, Xie Xiaolou reached out and touched it, only touching the air.
"This place is extremely mysterious, and the little monk can't feel the slightest evil spirit." If you don't quit walking in the end, you have silently used the word "chatter", and you can't sense the evil spirit, which is also a good thing, at least you won't be attacked by any ghosts.
"There's no wind here, so it's not going to be a dead end." Xie Xiaolou felt that there was no sign of turning after walking for a long time, indicating that this passage should be a straight road, and if there was an exit ahead, at least he would feel the air flowing.
"I can't care so much." Peng Li didn't know the bottom in his heart, but he was riding a tiger, and there was no other way than to continue to move forward.
The three of them cautiously walked in the dark, and there were no dangers along the way, and after walking for about half an hour, they finally saw a glimmer of light, and at the same time felt a gust of wind whistling in their ears.
I can't help but say that the three of them have a tacit understanding and speed up the pace together, and the bright spots in the distance are getting bigger and bigger.
Finally, the three of them walked out of the passageway, it was already daylight outside, and they were not used to the bright light in front of them, and they all squinted.
After a while, Xie Xiaolou opened his eyes and was surprised to find that the walking corpse was actually in front of him, just standing there motionless.
He stepped forward to take a look, there was nothing abnormal about the walking corpse, and after thinking for a while, he ripped off the corpse talisman with one hand, and the walking corpse instantly seemed to have been cut off by someone, and the bones of the whole body were shattered, and they fell to the ground in pieces.
It seems that his task is to lead the way.
"Where is this?" Bujie also opened his eyes and asked.
Peng Li looked at the busy scene in front of him in a daze, and slowly said, "This seems to be a small county town?" ”
Indeed, not far in front of the three of them was a road, and on both sides of the road stood various buildings of different heights, but the overall style was very ordinary, just like the usual small county towns.
And the weird thing is that the road is empty, not a single pedestrian, not a single car!
"Is there something nearby?" Xie Xiaolou looked at the non-quit.
As soon as he closed his eyes, he used the word trick, and after half a ring, he opened his eyes and shook his head.
"Have we been gone for a long time? It's dawn? Peng Li suddenly asked a question.
Indeed, the three of them felt that the time they had traveled all the way was almost an hour or so, and it was not yet early in the morning when they went down the well from Peng's house.
As soon as Xie Xiaolou said something, he immediately took out his mobile phone, and the numbers on it shocked him even more-
