The temple of the platoon camp was far away from the residence of the men and the leaders of the platoon sect in front of it, and it was probably the quietest place in the entire platoon camp, but when this ancient shrine appeared in sight, a faint strange aura wafted out. Xiao Jiuhong came and went in a hurry, and she only met me for a while, and many things couldn't be explained clearly, probably even she didn't know about it, but I vaguely guessed that the mother of the red lady, that is, the woman named Tianqing, had been there for so many years, but for some special reason, she couldn't show up, and she lived in seclusion in this temple that was about to be forgotten.

The night was dark, and the whole temple was immersed in black and oppressive gray, and I watched for a long time until I was sure that there was no movement around me before I slowly walked over. The door of the shrine was locked, I climbed through the wall from the only back window, most of the people in the camp were from the river beach, this shrine was built similar to the Dragon King Temple in the past, the wide offering table in the middle was empty, presumably it was originally dedicated to the rotten mud fetus.

The shrine is so big that it can be seen almost through at a glance, and there is nothing. I didn't think things would be so simple, I continued to walk slowly, raising my senses to the extreme, walking and walking, the floor under my feet made an abnormal noise, and when I stepped on it, I could immediately tell that the bottom of the floor seemed to be hollow, I didn't move for the time being, and walked through the entire shrine thoroughly, indeed, only that piece of floor under it was different.

I crouched down and lifted the whole floor up with little and little force along the edge of the floor, and there was a hidden hole under the floor, which looked like it was often frequented, and the edge of the hole was very smooth. By this time, it was pitch black below, and I had to use light, but standing at the entrance of the cave, I could only shine on the corner of the cave, and I didn't know what was going on behind it.

I thought, the place Xiao Jiuhong said should be here, after she heard the conversation between the red lady and Tianqing, she wanted to come here to investigate first, but Tianqing lives in the dilapidated shrine all the year round, and if she doesn't go far, Xiao Jiuhong has no chance at all.

Just as I was about to lift my legs and climb down the ladder, a sound that made my scalp tingle came from some unknown corner under the hole, I really couldn't tell what it was, it sounded like a dull and hoarse moan that came out of a person's throat, and at this moment in this environment, the sound was especially piercing. I don't know what the situation is at all, and I'm in the platoon camp, but if I don't go down, I may never get the thing Xiao Jiuhong said.

After thinking about it for a long time, the strange sounds in the cave in the ground were intermittent, and the ghosts seemed to be endless. I held my breath and climbed the ladder all the way to the hole, and when I entered the hole, there was only a passage that stretched forward, and the sound was clearer. There was only one passage, and I was so immersed that my senses were sharpened, and I vaguely sensed that the corner of that passage was the source of the sound.

I try to make it as slow and light as possible, because I don't know if there's anyone in the aisle yet. In order to reduce the movement, I simply extinguished the light in my hand, little by little I held on to the wall of the cave in the ground and walked forward, the passage was only about ten meters long, and when I walked to six or seven meters, I suddenly touched something on my ankle, and then I heard a very light "boom" sound, and it felt like a very thin and thin silk thread was suddenly broken.

I didn't have time to think about it, and with this very soft sound above my head, something suddenly fell. My heart suddenly tightened, the Tang family in the seven doors has always been proficient in strange and obscene ingenuity, although I haven't had much contact with them, but when I was staying in the Tang family, the aunt of the Tang family had talked about some related things, I immediately felt that I had touched something, since I entered the hole, my nerves have been tense, and I reacted very quickly, shaking my hand and taking off my coat, and went towards the things that fell above. At this time, he didn't dare to hold it up anymore, so he turned on the flashlight. The inside of the clothes is wrapped in a glass ball the size of a fist, the glass on the outside is as thin as paper, as if it can be broken by blowing a breath, and there is a pale red smoke floating in the ball, although I don't know what this is, but as long as I think about it, I will understand that the ball will fall to the ground and break, and the red smoke inside will float out silently.

When I looked down again, my heart hung high, and all the silk threads under my feet were as thin as hair, densely criss-crossed, and a silk thread dragged a glass ball above my head, which shattered when it touched the ground. I carefully set the ball aside from my clothes, but before I could straighten up, the low, hoarse moans like a trapped beast suddenly amplified a lot. I immediately tiptoed through the staggered silk threads, and as soon as I passed the corner of the passage, I immediately saw an iron gate.

The heavy iron door only opened a small window of less than a foot, and before it really approached, the sound floated out again along the small window on the iron door. I could tell that there was something alive behind the iron gate, and that the man who had cast the iron gate had apparently no intention of releasing it, and the iron gate was doused with molten iron all around. Once such a thick door is poured out, it can hardly be opened by manpower, so I thought that no matter what it was, I would definitely not be able to escape, so my heart suddenly calmed down, and I watched for a while, and slowly approached the small window on the iron door, wanting to look inside first.

The iron door was black inside and out, only the flashlight in his hand emitted a little dim light, close to the small window on the iron door, before I had time to see the situation inside, suddenly a sound of chain shaking exploded in my ears, an iron cable only as thick as a finger, like a poisonous snake thrown from the iron door, the iron cable seemed to have eyes, through the small window on the iron door, wrapped around my neck.

The moment my neck was entangled, the power on the side of the iron cable suddenly increased, pulled me hard, and hit the iron door with a bang, I stretched out my hand and pulled the chain on my neck to relieve the pressure on my neck. When I was attacked, I was caught off guard, but as soon as I reacted, there was room for counterattack, and the force inside the iron door was not as strong as mine, and I was slowly dragged to the front of the small window of the iron door.

At that moment, I was a little surprised, because I didn't know if what I was seeing was a "person" or not. The man looked to be about the same age as his father, but his legs and one arm were gone, only one right arm was left on his bare torso, and his face was so scarred that he could barely see what it looked like. He was holding a rope in his hand, and was fighting me with all his might, and between his teeth, I saw that half of his tongue had been cut off, and both eyes seemed to be blinded.

This guy immediately reminded me of Renbi. It's hard for me to imagine how he managed to survive in this environment and state. But I couldn't be distracted at this time, so I dragged him to the side of the small window, and at last, the man couldn't hold on, and suddenly let go of the chain in his hand, and hid in the corner behind the iron door.

In such a battle, I also took the opportunity to observe clearly, the "thing" behind the iron gate was actually a person like this person, except for him, there was nothing.

Ren Yan hid in the corner, maybe the battle just now had taken some strength, and he gasped slightly. Originally, I thought that his tongue was gone, and he could no longer speak, but as we confronted each other through a small window, the rumbling of the man's belly sounded like a syllable that was not very clear.

"You're not a platoon!" Ren Yan was extremely vigilant, hid his body in the dead corner behind the iron gate, and said vaguely: "Who are you!" ”

His voice came from the abdominal cavity, which may be the same as the ventriloquist used by the people who used to play tricks, and it took careful listening to understand what he was trying to say. With just one sentence, I am keenly aware that this person should not be all the way to Pai Jiao.

"I'm not a platoon." I replied and asked, "Who are you?" ”

"Is the leader of the platoon still a red lady?" Ren Bi didn't answer my words, and when he heard that I wasn't a teacher, he immediately asked, "Or is it not her!?" ”

I don't know why, when this person mentioned the red lady, the tone was a little different, ventriloquism is just a simple way of vocalization, and it is impossible to speak with the same strong emotions as the mouth.

"You're not a Pai Jiao person, but you can touch this place, are you very familiar with Pai Jiao? Isn't it? Ren Bi asked eagerly: "I'll ask you about someone, you tell me, tell me!" ”

As soon as the two of them talked, the hostility of Ren Bi seemed to decrease instantly, and I did not let my guard down, but I felt that it was not a bad thing to talk to him.

"Who are you going to inquire?"

"She's a girl, she's nineteen years old, I don't know what she's like now." Ren Yu seemed a little impatient, and his ventriloquist was not so clear, and this impatience could not be expressed, and he repeated it several times before he slowly calmed down and said, "Her name is Xiao Jiuhong." ”

"Xiao Jiuhong" I frowned, no one has set foot in the shrine in the depths of this platoon camp for many years, but the people who are locked up here, why did they mention Xiao Jiuhong as soon as they opened their mouths?

"Do you recognize her? Do you recognize it? ”

"I recognize." I was determined, since the other party had something to ask, then he would definitely say it himself.

"How about her! Is she good!? Is she okay now!? As soon as the people heard that I knew Xiao Jiuhong, they didn't care about anything at that time, and quickly crawled out of the corner behind the iron door, and the only remaining right hand grabbed the small window on the iron door, and eagerly poked out his face, eager to get out of it.

It was at this time that I really saw that this person was unkempt, scarred, unclothed, and I don't know how long he had been locked up here, embarrassed and depressed. But his facial features are very good, and if he is an ordinary person, he should be considered handsome. What's more, looking at him at such a close distance, I suddenly found that there seemed to be a trace of Xiao Jiuhong on his facial features.
