【Nanzawa / Once】
Nanze has always been known as the city of clouds, where dense forests and mountains are undulating.
Yi Huan's favorite is the deep and dense forest of Nanze, every time he enters the deep forest medicine of Nanze alone or after practicing the wood spirit, he will always sit quietly by the clear lake and rest, and wash his feet with the cool lake water.
Nanze is hot and humid, and the lake water is cool and comfortable.
At dusk, Yi Huan put the medicine basket on the stone and sat down on the shore of the lake as usual to enjoy the most pleasant time of the day.
Yi Huan is a young lady from Nanze Lian's family, her status is neither high nor low, and her spiritual power is also plain. However, he has a beautiful face and a demure temperament. The parents at home dot on their brother and hurt, and no one will say a few words when they leave their maids and wander around on the shores of Nanze's Linzi Lake on weekdays.
It was getting late, and Yi Huan should have gone home, but she was reluctant to leave today.
Perhaps this was the last time she wandered alone in the woods. The day after tomorrow, her parents will send her to the distant Zhongzhou Divine Land to enter the Divine Palace where the gods of the Canghuang clan live in countless times.
Then, if she is favored by the Heavenly Emperor and Empress of the Heavenly Ruler, it is estimated that she will not be able to return to Nanze in her life, let alone wander freely in this mountain like this.
Yi Huan understands that her parents' decision is right, like her, who is neither high nor low in the clan, and has mediocre abilities, and has an eldest brother who will definitely inherit her father in the future, if she can enter the palace and get the favor of the God Emperor, it is the best way out.
Yi Huan comforted himself that it was better than staying in the Lian family and marrying a man who was also neither high nor low in the future. The Heavenly Emperor is a virtuous monarch of the Ming Lord, and he will not harm his concubine, besides...... If he could become his woman, his parents would never have nothing to say in the family as they do now.
But for some reason, even if she comforted herself like this, her feet soaked in the lake today just couldn't lift up and walk ashore.
It was already dark, and the dense forest of Nanzawa at night was many times more dangerous than during the day.
Yi Huan secretly screamed in her heart that it was not good, she got up and put on the medicine basket on her back, and hurriedly walked towards the road she came.
The dense forest of Nanze is full of poisonous insects and miasma, and the crooked road that has been stepped on by people is like a labyrinth.
A cold bead of sweat fell on Yi Huan's forehead.
The most terrifying and terrifying thing in the Nanze jungle at night is not actually this labyrinthine road, nor is it a miasma of poisonous insects.
It's a spirit master.
A large part of the spirit masters who haunt the dangerous dense forests at night practice spiritual arts that cannot see the light.
They kill each other, or play with innocent lone spirits.
The puppet controls the corpse, the nine yin bone array, peels the face and shaves the bones, and the remnants are happy.
These are Nanze's unwritten but recognized four evil ways, the first two are spiritual arts, and the last two are cultivation methods.
And the evil spirit masters who advocate these four evil paths are most often haunted by the dense forests at night in Nanze.
Yi Huan remembered that not long ago, hundreds of residents of a small village next to a dense forest were brutally killed, and the Southern King Spirit Jie was furious, it seemed that it was the evil cult called Ghost Gate.
And this village, it seems, seems to be right away from here......
Yi Huan's heart beat her chest like a drumbeat, and she was drenched in cold sweat.
Her worst fears arose, and she got lost.
In fact, the dense forest sea that had just fallen at night was not so dangerous, and if she didn't get lost, she could go home safely.
But...... But......
Yi Huan raised his head, looked at the crooked ancient tree above his head, and spun in circles.
I've just been here?
At this moment, a few drops of water dropped from the twisted tree and landed on Yi Huan's face.
It's raining? No, the raindrops don't feel so sticky.
Yi Huan reached out to wipe it, and wiped it until his hand was scarlet.
I don't know when, not far in front of Yi Huan, there was a smiling skull on a stone.
In the moonlight, Yi Huan could clearly see that it was a bright red skull, obviously just scraped off its eyeballs and shaved flesh.
Peeling, peeling and shaving......
Then, she realized that at some point four or five piles of skulls had come out around her, not far from her.
Yi Huan's feet were weak, and he couldn't take a step when he had roots.
Nine...... Nine Yin Bone Array......
The Nine Yin Bone Array, an array made of the bones of the corpses killed by the person who set it up, it is said that the more the deceased suffered during his lifetime, the stronger the resentment, and the greater the power of the bone array.
It is rumored that this array can form illusions, can suppress the spiritual power of prey, and the array is full of poison, and there are even rumors that this array can make the trapped spirit master become a thing that is not human, ghost or ghost.
The Nanze Ling family had explicitly forbidden this evil spiritual technique, but because of the strength of the Nine Yin Bone Array, it was repeatedly banned.
Yi Huan's medicine basket fell to the side, and she fell to her knees, trembling like a leaf.
She is a young lady of your family, when has she experienced such danger, when has she faced such an evil spirit master lurking in the dark?
"Father, mother, brother...... Save ......," she subconsciously squeezed out a few words from her mouth.
"Yo, hooked a kitten?" a voice from the pubic side came from behind Yi Huan.
This is a man dressed in a woman's clothes and wearing heavy makeup, and he is trimming his long nails for a while.
Yi Huan turned his head sharply and took three or four steps back, and accidentally cut a few cuts in his skirt by the broken stones on the ground.
A few black feathers landed on her, and another person appeared in front of her, casting a shadow.
"It's still like that!" the woman's voice came, and she smiled, staring at Yi Huan up and down.
Yi Huan saw by the moonlight that this was a girl who was neither tall nor short, or a woman. The woman had a face that was blurred between a girl and a woman.
She was covered by a loose white cloth shroud and a white belt on her head, which was the dress of Nan Ze's dead man in the coffin.
Her long black hair covered half of her face, revealing the other half of her face cold and beautiful.
But what made Yi Huan even more afraid was not the woman, but the person behind the woman who was not a ghost or a ghost.
That's a ...... The human body, but by no means a complete person.
It seemed to be something that a man and a woman had been dismembered and spliced together. Half women, half men, covered in marks sewn with fine threads.
Puppet corpse.
Yi Huan looked at the thing twice in a trembling manner, and didn't dare to look at it a third time.
"What? You like it? That's my baby, I can't let you snatch it. The woman naturally noticed the girl's gaze, she approached Yi Huan for a moment, reached out and picked her chin, this woman with a clear face, didn't want to be a chatter, "Little girl, don't pretend to be garlic, is there a spirit master who is not a monster in the dense forest this night? Sister, I don't want to eat this set! Let me see, what kind of spiritual art are you cultivating? Are you a spider or a scorpion? Do you little girls like this thing the most, or do you have the same soft spot for the crippled body as Sister Mei?"
As she spoke, the woman seemed excited, her chest rising and falling.
Yi Huan retreated again and again, shook his head again and again, and couldn't say a word.
"Aren't they? Could it be ......" For a moment, the face of the smiling and bewitching woman turned iron blue, "You are the same as the old lady, practicing puppets?!"
"Qiongzhi, I think you're thinking too much. The man who was slowly manicing his nails spoke, "This kid doesn't seem to be from our side, and the aura on his body is not at all the same as ours." ”
"Shut up, you sissy! I'm talking to this young girl. The woman called Qiongzhi saw Yi Huan sitting on the ground and retreated again and again, like a hound facing its prey, crawling on all fours to the retreating girl, and the exposed half of her eyes stared at the girl's dodging eyes.
"Little girl, anyway, if you are caught by the array of the yin and yang people, you won't survive tonight, why don't you show your sister a hand before being played to death a little bit? Now the little girls have a lot of tricks!" Qiong Zhi said as if he remembered something, and turned back to the sissy and said, "Ru Yue, do you remember the girl who can gush poisonous insects from her ears, nose, mouth and thighs......?"
"Qiongzhi, Hugh mention it again!" At this moment, a man's thunderous roar came.
"It's fun. "The sissy named Ru Yue looks like watching a play.
Yi Huan found that there was a sturdy man covered with blood-red totems beside him at some point. The man was tall and muscular, not human, three meters fast, with a pair of yellow eyes as slender as snakes.
The man swung his fist, and Joan jumped out of the way with a clear eye, and the puppet reached out to catch the strange woman.
With this jump, Qiong Zhi covered his face with a long hand, revealing a face tattooed with a demonic totem on the lower half of his long hair.
This ghostly totem is not only the woman's face, but also the woman's bare shoulders, back, arms, and legs, all tattooed with this pale vermilion pattern.
"Ugly women!" the man said in disgust.
"Ugly, you deserve to call me ugly?" Qiong Zhi sat in the puppet's arms, giggling, she opened her arms: "These are all treasures given to me by Sister Mei, what do you know about a bad old man......?" My favorite sister charm, while lingering with me, painted on me with her nails, just thinking about it makes people want to stop......"
"Can you be a little more disgusting like a!" Jumen turned his head and snorted, staring at her viciously, "The face of the ghost gate has been lost by your!"
Yi Huan, who gradually calmed down, finally saw clearly that the totem on the woman's face was not a tattoo.
That's a special scar.
It's like being blunt little by little, patiently grinding off the skin and flesh, and then using a special method to make the scar never disappear.
Yi Huan couldn't imagine how the person who abused Qiongzhi could use the mood of painting to do such a thing.
What makes Yi Huan even more incomprehensible is that being treated harshly and cruelly, this woman actually looks like she is enjoying it.
Yi Huan was in a cold sweat, these demons said crookedly, this woman in white was crazy.
She took advantage of the woman's argument with her companion, and little by little she moved her body back, her legs regaining her instincts, and silently counting in her heart, three, two, one.
Run!!
Yi Huan got up and ran in an instant. The three spirit masters present seemed to turn their eyes to the girl who was desperate to flee for her life.
"......" Jumen frowned and didn't make a sound.
"Ah, this is miserable—" Qiongzhi said with some regret.
What a little girl, anxious to find death. ”
