The Sacred Spring Chapter 19: The Ghost Horn (3)

Qin Siyan crawled around the cave a few times, and finally got used to the underground environment. The majestic shrouds amazed him, and the delicate barrister suddenly asked a philosophical question: "If every witch doctor crawls into the cave alone and waits for death, who wrapped their bodies after they died?" -

Qin Siyan's question made the hairs on my body stand up. It stands to reason that the Witch Doctor of Cremo would climb up to Malik's lair alone when he had a premonition of death, and wait here silently for his soul to return to heaven. No one else is qualified to set foot in this land except for the witch doctor, so how can the witch doctor be wrapped in a camel and arranged in a calm and neat manner inside the cave after his death?

For a moment, the three of us shuddered at the question, and stood silently in the cavern surrounded by shrouds, feeling like we were being watched by a pair of eyes from nowhere. It would burst out at any moment, wrap us in a camel blanket with its large, invisible hands, and line us up as dead and Morrick's corpses.

The fat man gasped heavily: "Let's not keep scaring ourselves here. Why don't people wrap themselves up before they die? ――

The camel blanket is not a burlap bag, how do you tie the knot on the outside when you put yourself in it? -Qin Siyan's lawyer was sick again, and he didn't think about his situation at all, so he walked straight forward, picked up a shroud and threw it in front of the fat man, - You see the knot on the rope that binds the corpse, not only is it strong, but it also has all kinds of flower heads. This shows that someone has carefully concocted it. Just ask a dying person, where is he in the mood to wrap himself in a body while taking a rope to weave patterns-

This was a reminder to me, and I immediately looked through several of the outermost shrouds, and found that the ropes were not of the same color, not like the same person. Some knots have rotted and rotted because they are too old; Some are still as strong as new. This shows that the appearance of these shrouds is in order, and the farthest time between them is probably thousands of years old.

An idea came to me, and I rummaged through the cavern for evidence, and if I could find it, the secret of the Kramo Witch Doctor's auto-cocoon after death was a mystery that even a three-year-old could solve.

When the fat man saw me flipping through the items in the burial cave, he suddenly became happy, and ran to my side to look through them together: "Old Hu, what's the matter, have you figured it out?" Looking for something of value? What does it look like? I'll help you! -

As I searched for the crucial piece of evidence, I described to him: "It's hard to say how old it is, but if nothing happened, it would have retained its original external features." It's a big item.

Oops, it's still a big piece, I didn't see it before, you have a lot of research on foreigners' antique things. Don't worry, I won't tell Shirley Yang when I change the money when I turn around, count the private money of our brothers-The fat man picked up the gravel on the ground, raised his flashlight and groped in the dark, I asked Qin Siyan to help, and the two of them worked together to remove a corpse cocoon that was blocking the outside, trying to find some clues from inside. Somehow, the flashlight in the cave suddenly shook for a moment, and I just wanted to turn around and call the fat man, but the light went out all at once.

In the darkness, I crouched down and heard the fat man gasping for air beside me. I asked him what was going on. He held a flashlight and hurriedly said, "There's a guy standing in the corner, he's watching us-

Qin Siyan has never experienced this kind of sudden situation, and for a while, the whole thing was stuck behind my back, and his hands pinched my shoulders painfully, I said This happens often, don't be too nervous.

I don't want the fat man to shake his head: "But, we've never met a person with horns on his head-

I've never heard of horns growing on a man's head unless it's not human. I asked the fat man, "Have you seen clearly, aren't you dazzled?" -

He didn't say anything, and pushed the flashlight off with a snap. We saw a round light radiating in front of us, shining straight on the gravel floor not far away, and a huge figure was projected on the uneven wall. The most incredible thing is that the head of the figure has a sharp protrusion, like a demon with horns watching us quietly in the corner.

The fat man and I looked at each other, as if to prove that he was right. As the saying goes, hearing is believing, and a shadow alone can't prove much, so I took the flashlight from his hand, stood up and walked towards the mysterious man with horns, and as the light of the flashlight shone more and more clearly on the man's outer outline, the more uncontrollable the fear in my heart. I saw a humanoid object standing upright in the corner, and said that he was an object, because this person did not have a single piece of healthy and intact skin on his body, and his body was covered with round spinning top holes, from his arms to his abdomen, and even on his dry cheeks. Countless spinning top holes of different sizes grow on the human body, and he is like a humanoid hornet's nest leaning against the corner of the wall, and his hands are pushed to the side of the body.

A person covered in potholes naturally cannot be a living person. But a person covered in holes, was he really a person? Or is it just the remains of a humanoid beast? I stepped forward and held up my flashlight, trying to get up close to see if it was a human remains.

I shone a flashlight, and a hideous ghost face appeared in the light. The corpse's face was shriveled and fleshless, his skin was a sauce-purple color, his cheekbones were high, his eye sockets were deep, and a series of small, dense gyro-shaped pits spread out regularly on his face, and if I hadn't looked at them from such a close distance, I would almost have thought they were ornaments embedded in his face.

At this time, the fat man and Qin Siyan also walked to the standing corpse one after another, and they were also startled by this incredible corpse. The fat man rubbed his arms and said, "What the hell is this, I can see that the hairs on my body stand on end." This man was a pockmark in his life, right? -

Qin Siyan pushed his glasses, almost touching his face to the corpse, he took a small sharp corner on the corpse's head with his hand: "Which pockmark has horns on its head, I suspect that this corpse is not human at all-

The fat man didn't agree with Qin Siyan's opinion, he asked my opinion and said, "Old Hu, what the hell is this, is it not a human being and can it still be a ghost?" - I looked at the deformed corpse in front of me and said to him: "In some sense, congratulations to you. That's the big piece you've been looking for-

The fat man looked puzzled, first looked at the corpse, and then asked: "I**, I have been with you for a long time just to find this monster with horns on his head?" -

I looked at the dried corpses in front of me, and my heart was full of emotions: "I originally wanted to find the corpses of the Witch Doctor Morrick, just to explain the secret that they automatically formed a cocoon after death. I just didn't expect them to be like this-

Qin Siyan's head was flexible, and he understood what I meant at once: "I understand, I understand, hahaha, it is not a secret at all to become a cocoon after death, but a kind of respect and inheritance."
