Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Eerie Palace
I squatted on the ground and sorted out the little girl's clothes, although my face was calm, my heart was already turbulent, and I just forced myself to calm down.
"These dog mongrels...... Fucking cannibalism! The fortune-teller's breath was like a beast, and he roared in a low voice.
I got up from the ground, walked to the entrance of the cave, listened quietly for a while, turned my head, and came to the three Taoists. The fortune teller had already grabbed a man by the neck and shouted in a suppressed voice, "What the fuck are you guys? ”
But no matter how he shook and questioned, the man's expression did not change in the slightest, and his eyes were empty, like a puppet. I saw that the fortune teller was agitated and almost crazy, so I immediately stepped forward and grabbed him by the neck and carried him over. The kid was so angry that he opened his mouth to yell at me, but I slapped him on the back, and immediately swallowed back the scolding that came to his mouth.
"If you quarrel again, you'll be ruined!" I didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, so I threatened him and threw him aside immediately. stepped forward and pinched the chin of a Taoist, opened his mouth and looked inside, and saw that only half of the tongue was left in the person's mouth, and the wound was not neat.
When the fortune teller saw it, he also ran over and pinched a person's chin to take a closer look, and after a while, he said to me in a suppressed voice: "It's the same." ”
I put a finger under the man's ear, pressed it a few times, and then took a three-edged needle, sealed it several times under his ear, and pulled out the silver needle. Not only was his tongue broken, but his eardrum was pierced, and he was deaf and dumb.
Squatting down and looking at the feet of several people, I saw that although these three people were restrained by me and could not move, their toes were still standing on the ground, their heels were volleying, and their posture was very strange.
"What the fuck is this?" The fortune teller whispered at me.
I didn't pay attention to it, untied the clothes of one of the Taoists, stripped them naked, laid them horizontally on the ground, and inspected them inch by inch. This man's skin and flesh were like ordinary people, his chest was heaving, and his pulse was beating as usual, although it was far weaker than that of ordinary people.
I made a cut in my skin with a knife, and I saw crimson blood flowing out.
It was a living man, but he had no sanity to speak of, more like a walking corpse without a soul.
I got up and took a turn, and saw that there were two other little girls lying on the ground, both of whom had died of bleeding from their mouths and noses.
I pondered for a while, and when I turned around, I saw the fortune teller's fingers pinching and calculating, and there were words in his mouth, and after a while, he said to me: "Southeast fierce!" ”
I was about to speak, when my heart suddenly moved, and I rushed forward, and took him to the side and avoided the darkness. The fortune teller's reaction was also fast, and he immediately covered his mouth and kept silent.
Then two figures floated in silently on tiptoe, and when they saw the situation in the cave, their bodies stopped for a moment, and then floated to the cauldron, and one of them reached out and teased the pot. The water had already been boiled, and as soon as the hand went down, it immediately snorted, and the skin and flesh on the outer edge of the palm were instantly cooked.
The man's face was not moving, and after a few strokes, the two of them turned around the cave in a daze, and when they saw the three Taoists who were restrained by me, they also turned a blind eye. At last he touched the little girl, touched her, and then began to pick off the little girl's clothes, and took off her fine.
I watched from the sidelines, thinking that these two were going to throw people into the pot again, but who knew that they were not. One person went over to the side and pulled a black iron plate out, and the other person lifted the little girl who was ** on the iron plate, and the two of them held one hand and lifted the iron plate out.
The fortune teller let go of the hand covering his mouth, and after a long time, he cursed in a low voice: "What the hell! ”
I couldn't help but say, I grabbed him by the neck, picked him up and followed. The two men carried a man, still unhurried, and I was far behind. The fortune teller left the stone cave, and the surroundings were pitch black, and he became blind again, and he could only hold my arm tightly, and his palms trembled slightly, I don't know if it was nervousness or what.
Passing this way, I saw the two Taoists turning a few corners in a row, and I saw some light in front of me. The fortune teller pinched my arm, rolled his mouth, and said a few words silently. I glanced at him, he was talking about southeast, and then I pointed ahead.
That is, the hexagram he just had: the southeast is fierce!
I didn't pay attention to what was fierce or not, and when I saw the figures of the two people disappearing into the light, I silently calculated in my heart, waited for a while, and then quietly hid it. After a few more corners, I saw a huge space in front of me, although the eyes were all earth and stone walls, but after the axe and chiseled excavation, the shape of the house was outlined, and it looked faintly a bit of the grandeur of the hall.
A large brazier in the center, the flames rise and fall. The two Taoists were already kneeling in front of the brazier, and the little girl and the iron plate were placed in front of them.
When the two men knelt down, they remained motionless, except for the swaying flames in the brazier, which made occasional stabbing sounds.
The fortune teller covered his mouth, and he didn't dare to come out, but his eyes were boneless. When I gazed around, I saw that this earthen hall was quite deep and wide. Dozens of steps away from the brazier were steps. From a distance, there are about ten steps, and there seems to be a stone couch on it, and there are people lying on the couch.
I pressed my thoughts, lay motionless in the dark, only felt an itch in my arm, it was the fortune teller who wrote a few more words on my hand, and then stretched out his hand and pointed to the depths of the earth hall. He meant that there was a lot of murder in there.
The air here was extremely dull and turbid, mixed with a disgusting rancid stench. I have been dealing with dead people since I was a child, and I don't know how many corpses I have seen, so I can naturally immediately smell the smell of corpses.
The thoughts in my heart turned sharply, silently looking at the surrounding terrain, and secretly remembering it in my heart. Since I entered the stone forest with this fortune teller, everything I have encountered is strange and unbelievable. What are these Taoists, and what do they have to do with Daomen? The girl from Shui Sheng said "Wuling Mountain" in a daze, does it mean here?
Thinking about it in my heart, I saw the two Taoists kneeling on the ground, motionless, and I also pressed still, watching the changes in the dark. Glancing at the fortune teller, he wrote in the palm of his hand: "Who are you?" ”
The fortune teller immediately replied, "Let's be in a group." ”
I groaned in my heart. However, although this person is Shinto, he is not necessarily pretentious, and seems to know something. At this moment, I heard the sound of "Sisuo" from the depths of the earth hall.
My heart was slightly cold, and the fortune teller also opened his eyes wide and didn't dare to move. I heard a slight sigh from the depths of the earth hall. The voice sounded faint, but it was clearly heard in the silence of the earthen hall.
I couldn't hold back. I saw that the two Taoists suddenly got up from the ground and lifted the little girl forward. I looked a little surprised, these two people must be the same as the previous ones, they should be deaf and dumb, they should not be able to hear this sigh, and I don't know what the instructions were based on.
The fortune teller wrote a few more words in my hand, asking me what I saw.
Although there is fire in this earth hall, the hall is extremely deep, and as soon as the two of them walk in, their backs are gradually engulfed by darkness. I stared and heard another sigh. The two Taoists stopped in front of the stone steps.
After a while, I saw a figure sit up from the rockfall, raised his hands above his head, as if stretching, and then heard a hoarse and lazy voice say, "Did you eat raw today?" ”
The two Taoists did not respond, nor did they make any moves.
The figure must have asked and answered himself, and sighed slightly, but sat there but did not move. I breathed a few beats slightly, held my breath, ran the fetal breath meridian, stared at my eyes, and looked towards the depths of the earth hall. I saw that this person was wearing a rather old Taoist robe, with a cloak that hung down on his face, and he couldn't see his face clearly. But looking at the countless silver strands in his hair, he should be quite old.
The man sat on the stone couch for a while, yawned, beckoned, and saw the two Taoists lift the little girl and walk up the stone steps. I smelled the strong smell of corpses in the air, and looked around the stone steps, and saw that the sides were covered with white bones, some of which were connected to pink flesh fascia. It's shocking, it's like hell.
