"Ahh......h Call...... Phew, you ......" After a while, Du Mingjin recovered from the severe pain. He inhaled heavily, his forehead covered with beads of sweat the size of beans.

"Are you crazy? Or did the Privy Council let you meddle in this matter? If not, then you are finished, and the huge Shenzhou is afraid that it will not be able to tolerate it———————!"

Shangguan Cai pulled out the tip of the gun again, "It's me who asks you, not you who ask us." Have you figured out how to answer?"

"Whew...... I...... You guys...... Whew......"

She raised her weapon for the third time.

"Stop, stop...... Stop, please...... I said, I'll say everything!"

"It's long overdue, isn't it?" Shangguan Cai casually wiped the blood from the head of the gun, "Then hurry up." ”

"This is a place where corpses are dumped. He gritted his teeth, "But...... It's not just a place to dump corpses. ”

"What kind of dumb riddle are you playing?" Shangguan Cai looked at him coldly.

"Girl, spare your life, spare your life! I don't know much, it's all my own observation on a daily basis - Master Hu just asked me to bring people here and put them in those blocks!"

The square, which should refer to the hexagonal "honeycomb" on the bronze disc.

"Is there any benefit to putting it in?"

"Under that disc...... There is a hidden river with a strong current, and no one knows where it is going. And this disc ...... It will be pushed by the current, and it will be emptied every seven days, and all the people inside will be washed away, never to be seen again. ”

It turned out to be a dark river?

Xia Fan and the others glanced at each other, and suddenly realized in their hearts that this strange rustling sound did not come from some creation that was beyond the times, but from the turbulent water slapping against the river, but after being blocked and differentiated by the disc, it became less powerful and shocking.

But this alone can't solve the doubts that Xia Fan has always had.

"Who are you bluffing to bring people here just to throw away their corpses silently? Take this mountain as an example, just throw it in a hidden place, or the corpses will be eaten by wild beasts in a few days, why bother to pick such a place?"

In this era, as long as you go out of the city, the outside is basically a blind spot, and if you just want to dispose of the corpse, there is no need to bring it to the grotto.

And that bronze disc, obviously not something that can be made casually, to build such a large facility underground, just to flush the corpse every seven days? Xia Fan felt that this didn't make sense at all!

"It's not a corpse, it's a living person...... "and although some of them are dead when they arrive here, and we put them in......, it's mainly for the living!

"And what?"

He gritted his teeth, "And there are quantity requirements when you put it in." It is said that this disc may attract evil spirits, and when it is loaded into Sancheng, it can make evil spirits manifest. The more you pretend, the more terrible the evil becomes!"

As soon as these words came out, Wei Wushuang and Wang Renzhi both showed expressions of disbelief.

"How could it be ......," Xia Fan muttered puzzled, "This thing can produce evil? Doesn't evil need unrestful qi to form...... How the hell does it do that?"

Du Ming King Kong opened his mouth, but before he could answer, suddenly a low roar resounded throughout the cave!

The ground beneath his feet began to tremble.

"What's going on again?"

"Look at the disc!" Wang Renzhi exclaimed, "Circle, the disc is moving!"

How is it possible? Who can push such a big bronze?

Xia Fan fixed his eyes and found that the other party was really not wrong - he saw that the thing was slightly closed in trembling, compressing the hexagonal space a little bit. Such a huge casting is not a single unit, but a movable "instrument"! The edges of each opening are converged synchronously, and it is evident that there is an extremely delicate transmission device underneath it.

After about a few minutes of vibration, the disc stopped closing, as if they had just experienced an illusion, but Xia Fan knew that it was not an illusion, and after a simple finger gesture, the size of the opening had shrunk from the initial forty centimeters to about thirty-five, and the interval between the "hives" had widened significantly.

"I ...... Where is this?, hey, anyone!"

The vibration just now also woke Du Mingyin up, and before anyone could see it, his voice had already come from the hole.

"Brother Silver!"

"Brother, where are you, help me! My leg is stuck, it hurts—"

"That's enough, you two don't shout around!" Shangguan Cai interrupted sharply, "The phenomenon just now is what you called contraction, and to what extent can it finally receive?"

"Received...... There are no gaps. Du Mingjin closed his eyes with difficulty.

"Doesn't that mean—" Wei Wushuang gasped, "the people inside will be squeezed to death?"

"You mean, this thing is a torture instrument?" Wang Renzhi said incredulously.

"No...... Its original intention was not to torture, but to inflict endless fear and pain on the deceased. Xia Fan suddenly said, "I understand everything." ”

"Brother Xia?" Wei Wushuang looked at his fellow villagers in surprise.

"It's not going to kill right away, it's just going to shrink the size of the opening a little bit, and it's probably coming from the undercurrent below, probably some kind of energy storage device. When enough energy has been accumulated, the spring is pushed to move the disc. This operation is carried out on a seven-day cycle, and the cycle repeats. ”

"Those who are put in have no chance of escaping, they can only be imprisoned in this square inch, and they cannot even raise their hands or turn their bodies. This kind of small, stuffy, dimly lit space can cause a great deal of panic, let alone for days, even for an hour or two. ”

"But that's not the deadliest of all. As the contraction continues, the space inside the disc is no longer enough to fully accommodate the next person, at which point the arm is squeezed into the abdominal cavity, the chest expands with difficulty, and the person inside must struggle to get a breath of air. And such painful breathing did not last long, at most in a few hours, and they would die completely - only before they died, they felt the ultimate despair. ”

Xia Fan's voice became deeper and deeper, "There are corpses and strong qi, and the birth of ghosts is a natural thing. At the same time, it is precisely because the deceased was imprisoned in this immobile container before his death, that it will be the Yuan Ghost who appears in Gaoshan County!"

"What about the other female ghost?" asked the second son of the Wang family subconsciously.

"I'm afraid that one of the people who was thrown into the disc at that time was pregnant. Xia Fan slowly walked up to Du Mingjin, stared at him and said, "After a cycle, the body that has not been absorbed by the ghost will be thrown into the water, and the ghost will follow the breath of the living to Gaoshan County." The evil we are destroying is not a natural occurrence, but a deliberate creation of resentment. In this way, you still want to save your brother, and you don't want to see how many people's blood you have on your hands!"

"I, I'm just forced to be helpless, my lord!" Du Mingjin wailed, "All this was forced by Hu Zhixian to do it to our brother! He didn't tell me that this evil thing would produce evil spirits, this was all figured out by ourselves little by little! We don't want to have anything to do with evil things, and I beg you to let us die!"

"Loading Sancheng is also something you figured out yourself?"

Du Mingjin stretched out his hand tremblingly and pointed to the corner of the grotto.

Xia Fan walked in the direction he pointed and found that there were something engraved on the wall.

After he patted the dust off the surface with his sleeve, a pattern resembling an example appeared in front of him, and the handwriting on it was familiar.

He thought about it for a moment, only to realize that the glyph here was actually the same as the one on the Qingshan Town knife coin!
