Chapter 416: Thousand Corpses Town
The black shadow disappeared from our sight in just a flash, and when we arrived at the place where the black shadow disappeared, we only saw a pitch-black stone slab falling on the ground.
I also found that the speed of the black shadow was indeed very fast, which may not be able to reach the speed of me and Qin Tian, but this was not what really shocked me, what shocked me was the words on the stone tablet.
The three vigorous and powerful characters of "Thousand Corpses Town" are engraved on the stone slab, the size of the stone slab is as large as the horizontal plaque at the entrance of the town, and it must have fallen from above, just tripped by the black shadow just now.
When he saw these three words, Qin Tian was as surprised as I was. What is the town of a thousand corpses, this name sounds chills down the spine, how can anyone name it with such a name, is it that all the dead corpses live here, or is this name changed.
Qin Tian threw the stone slab on the ground and asked me tremblingly, "Qian...... Thousand Corpses, do you think this name is a bit ...... It's a little weird?"
I smiled bitterly and said to him, "Don't be afraid, maybe someone is playing tricks, calm down, everything has me!"
Sometimes I really admire Qin Tian's courage, but he is particularly afraid of things like ghosts and dead corpses! The name Thousand Corpses Town, as long as you are not a fool, you can hear that something is wrong, I say this is nothing more than to comfort Qin Tian, in fact, I am not sure in my heart, there is always an ominous premonition.
I said how the shape of the house looked so much like a coffin, and there was an evil aura everywhere in this place, and I always felt that something was watching us, and I guess it wasn't psychological. This place has a very heavy yin qi, and it is the easiest to breed demons and ghosts, and from the perspective of feng shui, there is dead qi gathered here all the year round, and anger cannot enter, maybe it is because Qin Tian and I inadvertently broke in, and those corpses inhaled vitality, so they began to wake up.
Zhou Yi gossip, Feng Shui numerology I have read some, and I know a lot about the above records, one of which introduces the corpse raising place, which probably means that if there is a place where yin qi gathers all year round, it will breed weeds, and in the same area, the most lush place where the grass grows is the yin place, and the corpses buried here will not only not decay, but also hair and nails will continue to grow.
This kind of place is also called the corpse raising place, the corpse is buried in the ground all the year round, absorbing yin qi, and the corpse will change after a long time, which is what ordinary people call the corpse, the corpse inhales a large amount of yin qi, so when it sees a living thing, it will attack frantically until the other party is no longer alive.
I thought that zombies were just religious imaginations, and the zombies in the movie were made up, and it wasn't until I came to Taigu that I began to believe that there were indeed zombies in this world. I've seen one when the Stygian Star came, and to be honest, I was really scared when I saw a zombie for the first time, but it didn't seem to be difficult to deal with, it just looked scary.
When Qin Tian heard me say this, he patted his chest and said, "Who said I was scared, I just thought the name was a bit strange, did you say that there would be dead corpses living in this house, why don't you go in and take a look?"
I swallowed my spit, and went in to see, the black light was blind, and there was nothing to light in the house, even if I had the eye of heaven, I didn't dare to rush in, in case of danger, it was quite dangerous to see the opponent clearly, and besides, the shape of the house looked uncomfortable, and I didn't want to go in.
So I said to Qin Tian: "Don't be impulsive, maybe there are other people nearby, let's just rush in for fear that we will startle the snake, now that the enemy is in the dark, I am in the light, it is better to pretend that I don't know anything, first take a walk around, and see what tricks the other party plays." ”
I said this to appease Qin Tian's emotions, I was afraid that he would be too nervous, in fact, I had sensed it with my divine sense long before I came in, there was no one at all, I also used my divine sense to sense it when the black shadow appeared just now, but I couldn't sense a trace of the breath of living creatures other than me and Qin Tian.
I suddenly thought of the double-headed basalt, the last time I was at the bottom of the lake, it suddenly appeared, and I didn't even feel its breath, so that Xuanwu has nothing to do with Thousand Corpses Town. And that Xuanwu is probably also dead, no wonder it has a dead breath on its body! My divine sense can only sense anger and see the picture of the physical mapping, last time it was in the water, so I didn't find out early when Xuanwu suddenly appeared, now in this case, the light is even darker, I know that I can't see anything with my divine sense, it will only cost my internal strength in vain, anyway, now the black shadow has not appeared, it is better to wait for him to come out by himself.
Qin Tian and I stood back to back on the street, holding our breath and staring at everything around us closely, although I said so, but Qin Tian is so smart, it is not easy to deceive him, I know that he has also noticed the abnormality here, but he is just as calm as me.
We stood motionless for five minutes, and there was no movement around us, but the feeling of being watched was always there, and the air seemed to condense, and in this atmosphere, it was easy to drive people crazy. My body was covered with cold sweat, I had never felt so passive, the speed of the black shadow just now, it didn't seem difficult to take our lives, but he didn't make a move, I don't know what Lu Dao was waiting for!
The two of us don't dare to move at will, the black shadow is too fast, we must stalemate with him, the enemy does not move, I do not move. Qin Tian is worthy of being a partner who has been born and died with me many times, and we have a tacit understanding of listening to each other's heartbeats back to back, until I feel that my legs are gradually numb, and I am about to lose patience, there is movement around me.
The sound was so subtle that it was impossible to hear unless you listened closely, and it sounded like it came from the dark rooms, and it sounded like some sharp weapon scratching the glass.
Qin Tian asked me in a low voice, "Lao Li, did you hear it?"
I made a silent voice, signaling Qin Tian not to speak, this voice sounded unusual, thinking of the three big words of Thousand Corpses Town, that ominous premonition became stronger and stronger, this sound was not the sound of a sharp weapon cutting through the glass, but like the sound of a fingernail scratching on the coffin board.
After hearing this sound, we didn't dare to move, there was a very fast enemy hiding nearby, and there seemed to be something in the room that was about to come out, and we must not make a sound at this time, maybe these things have been in the dark for a long time, and have lost their vision, if we rely on hearing to distinguish things, then we can't move.
The sound of fingernails scratching the coffin boards grew louder and louder, and more and more sounds came from the rooms, and at the same time, the doors of some of the rooms began to shake violently.
