After listening to the words of the madman Liu, Tian Liwen smiled miserably and said: "Even if you can't cure it, I will sue you, and now, I have nothing to hide." ”

Crazy Six nodded slightly, paused slightly, and said: "No, I'd better cure your illness first, it's fairer for you, it just so happens that this time is also the most suitable for treating your disease, let's start now."

After the madman six finished speaking, he took out a box of silver needles from his bag, there were more than ten silver needles in this box, the size and thickness were different, he asked Tian Liwen to lie down, because Tian Liwen needed to take off his clothes, so we men withdrew first, and there were only a few women left in the room, such as Hongmei, Kenya, Sister Li, and a female translator.

Although Tian Liwen was already very desperate, especially for the freak in her stomach, she was under great psychological pressure, and when she heard that the madman six could cure her, of course hope was ignited in her heart.

A few of us stood outside, listening carefully to the movement coming from the house, first hearing Tian Liwen's slight moaning, and then the moaning became louder and louder, as if it was very painful.

After about twenty minutes, the room suddenly calmed down, and after a while, Hongmei came out with a basin, I knew that in that basin, it should be the freak in Tian Liwen's stomach, I couldn't help but sweat and hairs stood on end, I wanted to look but didn't dare to look, but I couldn't help but glance at it, I only felt that it was a black thing, and it was only the size of a fist.

Hongmei brought the pot of things to the outside of the gate, and Xiao Lei dug a deep pit with a sapper shovel, and then buried the thing.

By the time we entered the house, Tian Liwen had already dressed and was half leaning on the pillow, although her face was tired, she had a sense of relief, and her face was bloody.

In order to make her recover further, we all came out, and my cousin said that Tian Liwen would be able to completely recover if she slept for a few more hours.

Everyone came out of the house for the time being, or washed clothes, or chatted and walked, and it was rare to have such a relaxing moment for so many days.

Until dusk, suddenly the door opened, Tian Liwen came out of the house, at this time, she was almost completely restored to normal, seeing that we were all standing there looking at her, she gently walked over and bowed deeply to us: "Thank you for saving me, especially this old man." ”

"You're welcome, you'll get better, your body has completely recovered to normal, your original mood is low and unstable, not only your psychological problems, but more importantly, your meridians are not normal", Maniac Liu smiled and waved his hand, and said lightly.

Everyone returned to the house at this time, this time, Tian Liwen went straight in, and before we could ask, she sighed and said: "I ask for forgiveness first, the reason why we didn't tell the truth at the beginning is because we also have hardships, and we have suffered so much because of the current situation, Professor Shan and I have suffered a lot, and we almost died, because everyone helped, I was fine, but Professor Shan is still uncertain about life and death, alas, this is also what we asked for, and we can't complain about others."

However, I really didn't lie to you about our identity, Professor Shan is indeed an expert in art history, and he is also one of the most outstanding experts in this field, and I am also his doctoral student, but as for the purpose of coming here, what we said before is not true, and the thing is like this:

I don't know if you know, in our provincial capital, there is a famous cultural relics and antiques street, although our area is a mountain, but the history is more peculiar, there are often some unique cultural relics, when Professor Shan is fine, he likes to go to that street, and from that street, he retrieves a lot of unique cultural relics.

One day, probably more than a month ago, Professor Shan went to visit the cultural relics street again at dusk, and after shopping for a while, he didn't find anything of interest, and Professor Shan was about to go home, when suddenly, in a corner, something from an old man's stall attracted Professor Shan.

That thing, it's a shadow puppet.

Generally speaking, the shape of the shadow puppet is a bit like a New Year's painting, which is a very Chinese shape, but the shadow puppet on the old man's stall is very unique, not a Chinese style at all, but a Japanese ukiyo-e style, if you are not an art expert, it is difficult for ordinary people to find this.

At that time, Professor Shan was taken aback, because he had specialized in shadow puppetry, and had written a monograph, and he was very familiar with shadow puppets of various genres, but he had never seen ukiyo-e style shadow puppetry.

So, Professor Shan leaned over and asked the old man, 'Old man, where did you get this shadow puppet?' How much does it cost? ”

When the old man raised his head, Professor Shan realized that the old man was actually a blind man, and when Professor Shan asked him, the old man replied in a hoarse voice: ?" I don't lie to you, it's from a grave, it's not worth anything, no one wants it, you look at it, it's okay to give fifty or a hundred. Hearing that it was picked up from the grave, Professor Shan was slightly surprised.

However, listening to the old man's words, it was true, so he gave all the money on his body, a total of more than 1,000 yuan, to the old man, and the old man groped for the money and thanked him again and again.

Professor Shan took the shadow puppet home, but when he looked at it carefully in his studio, he couldn't help but be shocked—for he could be sure that the shadow was made of human skin.

Professor Shan studied in Germany in his early years, and in the museum of that university, there is a very special collection, which is a variety of handicrafts made of human skin.

It was one of the heinous crimes committed by the Nazis during World War II, they used gas chambers to kill countless Jews, and used these Jewish hair, soap, human skin to make books, lampshades, wallets, etc.

A German scholar told Professor Sù Shan that there are obvious differences between human skin and the skin of other animals - first, human skin is very smooth, and there are almost no pores on it, while the skin of other animals has obvious pores on it; In addition, the touch is also very different from other fur, human skin products feel very good to the touch, just like touching human skin; Another point is that when rubbed vigorously by hand, human leather products will emit a burning smell, while other leathers will not.

Tong Guò personally came into contact with those human skin products, and Professor Shan found that the German scholar summed up completely correctly, and human skin products did have these characteristics.

Therefore, Professor Shan was able to quickly distinguish that the shadow puppet was made of human skin. Not only that, but on the inside of the shadow puppet, there are even dense words, although the shape of the shadow puppet is in the style of Japanese ukiyo-e, but the characters engraved in it are all Chinese characters, not Japanese.

The content of those words is even more terrifying, to the effect that this shadow puppet is made of human skin, and this human skin, which has become a spirit, will be like a ghost and a wild ghost, in the windy night, wandering around, and scaring many people to death in the local area.

Later, coinciding with the Japanese invasion and occupation of that area, this strange human skin was captured by the Japanese army, but no one knows how they captured it, but it is said that it was captured by a scholar named Inoue in the Japanese army, and after this human skin was captured, it was cut open by Inoue, and one of the pieces was made into this ukiyo-e shape.

In addition, the written record says that if this kind of human skin is not captured, it will eventually enter the "realm of immortality" and no longer suffer from the cycle of life and death.

It is said that these contents are too fantastical, but the text says that this kind of human skin still exists, and also writes the most detailed address, saying that somewhere in the mountain, there is a crater, and next to the crater, there is a big tree, there is this kind of human skin, hanging on it, and on that big tree, there are the most mysterious scriptures, after mastering these scriptures, you can make people enter a different realm.

After reading these written records, Professor Shan felt that it was both absurd and true, and full of great curiosity, he was usually very interested in meditation, cultivation, and the kind of mysterious scriptures on the human skin stimulated his curiosity, so he planned to come here.

In fact, you all know that although he is not too old, his health is very bad, and he has strict diabetic, so he needs to be taken care of in his daily life, because I am also his assistant, so he asked if he would like to come with him, alas, this is a rare opportunity to be alone with him, how can I let it go, and I agreed without hesitation.

We looked at the map before we came, and the closest to here was the hotel, so we chose the hotel and made our foothold, and the next morning, we came here, but I didn't expect that as recorded on the human skin, there were craters, big trees, and human skins on big trees.

The only thing that wasn't mentioned in the words on the human skin was that there were a few houses next to the big tree, and we were so excited that we were going to climb up the tree to see it.

As you all know, the tree is so thick that you can't climb it if you climb it hard, but you may not have noticed that on the north side of the tree, there is a large section of roots exposed, and if you step on the middle of the root with your foot, many grippers will pop up on the trunk, and these grippers are wooden, from top to bottom, like a ladder, which can be easily climbed up.

But when I saw the human skin fluttering in the wind, I was so frightened that I didn't go up, so at last Professor Shan went up on it himself, and he looked at it for a long time, and he didn't know what he saw, and when he came down, the expression on his face was very strange—one that was both happy, shocked, and very excited.

He only said 'follow me,' and then hurried to the entrance of the cave -- the hole where the human skin was, and when he reached the narration of the cave, he said something in his mouth, as if he was reading some scripture, but what he didn't expect was that the hole, which was not big, slowly became bigger and bigger, and then it was similar to the mouth of the well, and when Professor Shan saw that the hole had become bigger, he immediately wanted to go down, and I hurriedly went over to dissuade him, saying that the hole was too weird, and it might be dangerous to go down, and he didn't listen to anything. Still went down.

I waited on it for twenty minutes, and then I almost had to break down, thinking that he must have had an accident inside, so I shouted at the entrance of the cave, and if there was no response, I was about to go outside the mountain to call the police, but at this moment, something unexpected happened. ”
