Chapter Ninety-Three: A Terrible Hope
When Lu Yong saw that the three of them were here, he didn't talk nonsense, and said with a sly smile, "If you decide, follow me." ”
With that, he walked out of the hut and came to a tightly sealed wooden hut next to it, took a key from his bosom, and opened the door.
The three of them glanced at each other and followed, but as soon as they entered the house, they were shocked by the situation inside.
All the people in this room are corpses!
Some were haphazardly laid out on the floor, some were stripped naked, their shoulders pierced by iron hooks, and hung from the beams.
The bodies were male and female, some intact and some decomposed.
In each of the four corners of the hut, there was an incense burner, and the fragrance wafting from it covered up the stench of the corpse, so that no one outside could find anything.
Liu Yiyue exclaimed in fright, and ran directly behind Gu Qiuyu, although she had already made up her mind, she could see this miserable situation like purgatory, and she couldn't accept it, and she couldn't bear it, and she couldn't bear to vomit.
Meng Jingchu's appearance was not much stronger than Liu Yiyue, his face was pale, and his whole body trembled a little.
Gu Qiuyu frowned deeply and looked at the corpses in the house.
I feel in my heart that these people should be martial artists, but I don't know if these people were killed by Lu Yong, if so, then what does he want to do, it is difficult to be the enemy of the whole world?
Thinking of this, Gu Qiuyu was worried about the two people who got up, turned around, and wanted to continue to dissuade the two, but found that Liu Yiyue's expression had recovered, but there was no blood on her face.
Lu Yong ignored the expressions of the three people, went straight to a bed in the hut, stretched out his hand to get off the bed, and a secret passage appeared in front of the three of them.
He looked at the three of them and giggled and walked straight in.
The three of them looked at each other, Meng Jingchu was the first to walk up, Liu Yiyue followed behind, and Gu Qiuyu walked last.
I saw that this was a semi-natural tunnel, and the stone steps disappeared after a short walk, replaced by a slippery stone path that extended to the depths of the secret passage.
Gusts of cold wind came out of the secret passage, apparently communicating with the outside world.
Lu Yong walked in front, not with a torch, completely relying on his eyes to see the dark stone road, in the rear, Gu Qiuyu was in front, holding Liu Yiyue and Meng Jingchu in his hands, now he can barely see Lu Yong's position.
The secret passage was very long, and everyone walked for a long time and didn't see the exit, Gu Qiuyu only felt that after they started to walk down for a while, they now began to walk upwards again, and they said in their hearts, they should be almost at the exit.
Sure enough, at this time, I saw that there was a little light above the slope of the secret passage, which was where the exit was located, and Lu Yong had now walked out of the secret passage.
Gu Qiuyu took the two of them and walked over quickly.
It is a mountain forest, surrounded by towering trees, and the dense branches of the trees block out the sunlight, making everything in the forest look gloomy.
Gu Qiuyu rubbed his eyes and looked into the distance, only to see that the village where Lu Yong lived was not far from the bottom of the mountain, and the villagers in the village could be faintly seen.
There are many plains in Mingguo, and the mountains and forests where they are now are also a very small area of Mingguo, and they are located in the border land, so few people will come here.
Not far from the exit of the secret passage, there were several simple wooden houses, which were not large, and in some places they were so badly eaten by insects and ants that they were already dilapidated.
Meng Jingchu and Liu Yiyue were also inevitably curious in their hearts, and looked around.
"Come with me, don't wander around. ”
Lu Yong led the three of them to the wooden house, stopped in front of a door, and then pushed the door in.
The wooden house is simple, but there is a hole in it, a large bluestone pool firmly occupies the whole wooden house, it is said to be a wooden house, but it is not a place to live in at all, because there is nothing else except the central pool.
Gu Qiuyu looked at the pool and froze in place, and a chill rose in his heart.
"It's not a pool of water, it's a pool of blood!"
The bottom of the pool has long since dried up, but faintly black blood stains can be seen at the bottom of the pool, and this is a shocking sight.
Looking at Liu Yiyue and Meng Jingchu again, the two stood in place with pale faces, resisting the urge to rush out of the door.
First the house full of dead bodies, and then the huge pool of blood in front of them, such an encounter is something that ordinary people have never seen once in their lives, but the two of them have met again and again today.
"This is where the two of you practice. ”
Lu Yong pointed to the blood pool in the center of the room, ignored the two who were stunned, and turned to leave.
Gu Qiuyu settled down and whispered to the two, "Don't worry, there is me." ”
In the evening, the three of them and Lu Yong hastily ate some food in a room next to them, except for Lu Yong, the rest of them obviously had no appetite.
Liu Yiyue didn't even eat, her mind was full of the scenery she had seen during the day.
"Little girl, eat a little, otherwise you will be able to eat less food after tomorrow." Lu Yong handed over a piece of dry thick steamed buns, and his impression of Liu Yiyue was still good.
There are no cooking utensils here, there is no way to make a fire to cook, and the food eaten by several people is the same here, and I don't know how long it has been sealed.
Liu Yiyue didn't take the steamed bun, but looked at Lu Yong and said softly, "Old man, I want to ask, does this magic skill of yours really make people age instantly?"
Anyway, she is also a girl, although she has made a decision in her heart, but after arriving here, she is a little hesitant.
The girl's mind is very careful, and she has also thought about it, if she becomes an old woman in the future, will Gu Qiuyu abandon her, and will she gently stroke her head as before? Maybe after seeing her old face, even Meng Jingchu will stay away from her.
Now that she has arrived here, there is no turning back, Liu Yiyue asked this question at this time, which is also like erasing her last illusion and facing the reality well.
But after Lu Yong heard Liu Yiyue's question, he actually pondered.
"There's a way to stay young, but ......"
"But what!"
Liu Yiyue still doesn't understand what kung fu is, and she doesn't know what she wants to do, or thinks that after she finishes learning martial arts, she is still her original self. But I don't know if her appearance has changed or not, even after she learns martial arts, she can't have the life she has now.
But hearing this good news gave her a glimmer of hope, which was almost desperate, and her voice trembled a little.
Gu Qiuyu on the side knew that this was another unacceptable price.
Lu Yong was still clear at this time, he had little contact with people over the years, but he had lived in this village intermittently for many years, and he could get along with the villagers normally, and there was also a trace of pity in his heart, and he said quietly, "But after using this method, your remaining lifespan is only ten years, or maybe more, it depends on whether you can collect some valuable medicinal materials within ten years." ”
"I'm willing!" As soon as Lu Yong's voice fell, Liu Yiyue gave an answer.
