Tang Fang's common sense tells sΓΉ he, common sense tells sΓΉ Tang Fang, usually where it is written 'trespasser is dead', it should be the entrance of the cave. (Please search, the novel is better and faster!)
Tang Fang gently tapped on the bark, and a crisp sound penetrated in, Tang Fang smiled in his heart, sure enough, there was no mistake, this tree was hollow.
The tree is afraid of peeling, but it is not afraid of hollowness, so even if it is hollow inside, it will not die very much, and if it is used well, it can indeed be used as a nest, not to mention that it is such a large towering tree, even if there are thousands of people living in it, it is not surprising.
Tang Fang carefully peeled off the bark, and soon something similar to the mouth of an ant hole appeared inside, Tang Fang was afraid of alarming the people inside, so he carefully peeled off the bark little by little, and soon a small hole for a person to enter appeared, Tang Fang wiped it with his fingers, and then licked it in his mouth, there was no smell of earth.
It should be a long time since anyone has entered from here.
Tang Fang thought that this place was dark and damp, if someone often entered, it would be impossible not to leave half a trace of soil, and the smoother it was, the more it meant that no one had been here for a long time.
This cave girl is passed down from generation to generation, and many cave girls don't live for more than three years, so it may be that the cave girl of a certain generation, in order to save trouble, opened the hole below, and over time, it may be that the cave girl of a certain generation died, and the news was not passed on to the next generation of cave girls in time, so this entrance was permanently forgotten. Entwined with vines, it disappeared into history.
Tang Fang couldn't help but feel refreshed, if it was really as he expected, then the cave girl in this place would not know the existence of this passage, she had a mental calculation or not, if she entered through this passage, no one would show herself at all.
It's just that at this time, Tang Fang has begun to become hesitant whether he wants to go in or not......
If that person just now was really Zi Lingling, when the time came, the moment her identity was revealed, how would I face her?
Kill, or, destroy that piece of death?
If this is the only way to save Zi Lingling's life, how can he bear to watch Zi Lingling die like this, after all, many of Zi Lingling's injuries are because of herself!
Tang Fang sighed, with a complicated mood, carefully drilled into the hole, there is indeed a wooden ladder inside, but it is in disrepair, it seems that no one has passed by for many years, Tang Fang is afraid that his footsteps are noisy to the people in the cave, and he walks slowly, every step does not even dare to make a sound, it can be imagined that when Tang Fang flew on the tree ground, it took a full half an hour, at this time, you can hide your footsteps, and it will inevitably reduce the degree a lot, this tree ladder was originally built according to the tree, surrounded by layers, without a few efforts, Tang Fang was a little dizzy, but he still endured patience, Tang Fang is such an impatient person, can do this, it can really be regarded as the first time in history.
I don't know how long it took, and finally seemed to reach the end of the staircase, a huge tree blocked Tang Fangdi's way, Tang gently lifted the giant tree, Tang Fang couldn't help but be stunned: three or four meters below, looking up, is a huge hall, naturally composed of the heart of the tree, nearby, according to the trend of the tree, opened up countless small rooms, looking at the mountain like a beehive, Tang Fang looked at it secretly, if this big tree shows the ingenuity of the world, and the wonder in this tree hole is the display of the ingenuity of the master here, and even in every not far away, there is this sunlight penetrating in, every room is almost naturally formed, without any traces of axe chisel, the wooden tables, wooden chairs are made of local materials, frugal but full of atmosphere, there is also a trace of aura, the whole place, all look very clean, spotless, obviously someone deliberately cleaned every day.
But this qiΔ, for Tang Fang, who has seen big scenes and experienced countless strange pasts, is not worth mentioning at all, the reason why he has such a big reflex is entirely because he sees things that he shouldn't see.
Gold.
Countless gold, almost everywhere, like worthless stones, were discarded on the ground, on the branches of trees, and on wooden benches, the dazzling golden light made Tang Fang almost dazzling and couldn't open his eyes, among which there were countless seedlings of silver, jade, and many, many more Tang Fang couldn't name, but at a glance, he knew that it was a very precious thing, but just like that, he was abandoned by the owner here.
Tang Fang couldn't help but smile bitterly.
He probably guessed the origin of these yellow and white things.
The cave god is the biggest belief of the Miao people here, of course, they want to dedicate their most precious things to the cave god, for many years, thousands of years of accumulation, there are many gold and silver treasures in it, it can be imagined, but unfortunately, the owner of this room, but is a woman who can not leave the cave for half a step, looking at the countless gold and silver jewelry, but can not exchange for a bun that they want to eat the most, which is painful, it is estimated that only they know it.
No wonder these cave girls like to cry all day long, I see!
Tang Fang smiled bitterly and thought: "If you were to be yourself, I guess I would cry even more."
Suddenly, a sound of footsteps sounded, Tang Fang was suddenly alert, and carefully put the wooden board back into place, this place is three or four meters away from the ground, ordinary people will not look at themselves three or four meters above the ground, and no one here will know that there is such an entrance in this cave.
Tang Fang left a gap to facilitate his peeping, and soon the woman in purple appeared in the hall, Tang Fang recognized that this woman's lichen was definitely exactly the same as Zi Lingling, and even her face was as fake as Zi Lingling, but this walking demeanor was missing Zi Lingling's elegance, which was also Tang Fang's most suspicious place.
Tang Fang was silent, quietly waiting for this woman's every move.
The man walked to the front of the wooden table, swept away a stall of gold on the ground, revealing a small blue parcel inside, her eyes suddenly brightened, opened it and looked, it contained several of the most common meat dumplings in Xiangxi, the woman was immediately salivating, and she didn't even bother to wrap the dumpling leaves, and began to feast on it in her hand, looking at the woman's gobbling up food, Tang Fang suddenly put his mind at ease.
The day Tang Fang and Zi Lingling first met, Zi Lingling's extremely elegant eating appearance left an extremely profound image on Tang Fang, Tang Fang knew that the real Zi Lingling, no matter when, would retain her unique and elegant eating appearance, and it was absolutely impossible to make such a gobbling action, even if she was so hungry that she only had the last trace of strength left.
The appearance can be the same, the clothes can be the same, and even all the qiΔ can be imitated, but this innate, coupled with the noble temperament cultivated by the day after tomorrow, can never be imitated by others.
This woman in purple must be a fake Zi Lingling!
It's just that why did this person appear here, why did she look exactly the same as Zi Lingling, what happened to Zi Lingling in the past few days when she entered the cave?
The woman finished eating all the meat dumplings on the wooden table, and licked her fingers unsatisfied, and said: "Duanmu, this little baby, is still filial piety, every day is those disgusting insects for food, I haven't eaten such a delicious thing for a long time, but I don't know that this kid can send the cave girl this time to be able to mix these private goods, and I don't know when I will come next time." Alas......"
"I'll have to wait another three years. The woman in purple sighed and said, "Girl, aren't you going to accept your fate?" I have been here for almost a hundred and fifty years, and the people who came in, crying and shouting back, crazy, hysterical, trying to get into a way to escape from my hands, and some of them simply accepted their fate at the beginning and were at my mercy, but there are very few of you like this, who have persisted for so long, but you can still say nothing, and don't say a word from beginning to end, you must know that our so-called cave girl is just a good sound, and if you come here, it is equivalent to a death sentence, and it will never be possible to get out, die early and live early, beg to be a good person in the next life, and don't be thrown into the hole againγ β
The woman sighed and said, "Actually, what's wrong with dying, it's better than suffering endless loneliness and loneliness here, if I were you, I would admit it, it's all fate, and I can't complain." β
A voice said coldly: "Since it is so good to die, why don't you die but stay alone for a hundred and fifty years." β
As soon as this person spoke, Tang Fang was shocked, how could he not hear it, this was the real voice of Zi Lingling, but, what about Zi Lingling?
Tang Fang concentrated his eyes and looked towards the place where the sound came from, but he still only saw the tree wall, not Zi Lingling.
"I don't want to die, because I still have hope, I have the hope of going out, but you are different, you have no hope, there is no hope and you don't die, this is called stupid, do you understand?"
Zi Lingling sneered, "Your hope is to continue to use the cave girls sent in, slowly occupy their bodies, and then stop yourself from woodening the possibility?"
Tang Fang finally found the source of the sound, the source of the sound was actually a piece of wood in the hall, Tang Fang took a closer look, the shape of this piece of wood, the appearance was really very similar to Zi Lingling's body, and even the outline of the face was completely carved according to the appearance of Zi Lingling, Zi Lingling actually ......
Zi Lingling actually turned into a piece of wood!
Tang Fangdi's heart was shocked as if the sky had fallen, what other unknown secrets were there in this cave?
What the hell is going on in this place......
The woman looked at the ground and sighed, "Yes, look at this wooden table all over the floor. Wooden chairs, every table, every stool, are once a cave girl, the cave girl is selected every three years, the average cave girl can't last three years at all, she will be in the endless loneliness, and this big tree in the sky assimilated, become a part of it, and really give yourself to the cave god, but I survived, for thousands of years, I am the only cave girl, resisted loneliness, resisted the wood, survived, little girl, I know, you are not half of the Miao girl, you are a Han person, and even a very powerful disciple of a sect among the Han people, but, in the same way, as long as the woman who has entered the world, it is impossible not to miss the temptation of the world, and feel homesick all day long, The reason why I was able to support it is because I have never been to the world at all, and I have nothing to love. β
"Is it true that only those who have no love can live longer?" Zi Lingling muttered, and the woman smiled: "You can't let go at all, you already have someone you like, right? I have been here for many years, and I have seen a lot of cave girls who have been sent in, and I can see which one has love in my eyes." β
Zi Lingyu snorted coldly and said, "I want you to take care of it." β
The cave girl smiled and said: "The sentient person, even more unbearable loneliness, rather than suffering from the pain of lovesickness all day long, it is better to give birth early, although I don't understand the pain of the bone marrow, but I have seen, the affectionate cave girl, the shorter the time of woodening, it is a wonderful phenomenon here, I don't believe you can give it a try." β
Zi Lingling snorted coldly, noncommittal. The cave girl continued: " I admit that although I can copy your appearance, but if you yourself are not willing to give me your soul, I only have your form, but it is rare for you to be a god, but it is also covered with an ownerless skin, and I will still die of old age soon After all, I am almost one hundred and seventy years old, but I can give you a hope, that is, if I can go out and walk through that damned miasma, I promise you, take you out, and hand you over to your beloved, this is a promise I can give you, but I also know that if it is realized, I don't know what year and month it will take, but there is a glimmer of hope is always good, it is better than you like you who do not know how to woodγ β
Zi Lingyu was silent, and after a long time, she suddenly said, "Who taught you this set of evil skills." β
The cave girl smiled and said: "This has nothing to do with you, you just need to answer whether you want to or not You have been half-wooden, more than I imagined, presumably, you have a man who loves you very much, don't worry, I will take you out, hand you over to him, and tell her, this piece of wood in my hand is what you used to be, but I don't know if that man will cherish it." β
Zi Lingyu continued to be silent, and after a long time, she said, "If I don't get hurt, this hole can't stop me." β
The cave girl smiled and said, "I know you may be very powerful, but do you know that as long as the woman who enters the cave is the wife of the cave god, no one can get out, and it is impossible to even get out dead." β
The cave girl continued: "The matter has come to this, you have no choice, and I, for you, have given you a glimmer of hope, do you know how precious hope is? I have been struggling here for more than a hundred years for this glimmer of hope, and you, as long as you give me your soul, can also get a glimmer of hope, how to calculate this account, you are a smart man, you don't need me to explain again." β
The two stopped talking, and the atmosphere fell into a strange silence, Tang Fang looked at the two quietly, adjusting his breathing, as long as this cave girl made any move towards Zi Lingling, he would take action at any time and kill this hateful woman who sucked the child's brain.
Zi Lingling said slowly: "I want to die to understand, there are a few questions, can I ask?"
The cave girl smiled: "Yes, as long as I know, I will definitely sue you all." β
Zi Lingling said: "First question, who are you?"
"As I said, like you, I am a miserable person, a poor cave girl who was caught in a cave, but here I met a strange person, who taught me to keep exchanging bodies with the cave girl who came in, so that I could continue to live, so I just lived longer than you. β
Zi Lingyu continued: "The second question is, does the cave god really exist?"
The cave girl thought for a while and nodded: "Yes, the cave god really exists, and it's here." At this time, even Tang Fang was a little strange, he always thought that this cave god was just a spiritual totem made by the Miao people here, but he didn't expect that the cave girl who had lived in this cave for a hundred years really believed in his existence.
Zi Lingling took a long breath and said slowly, "The third question...... Cave God, is it from the corpse?"
As soon as the three words corpse ** came out, suddenly, the cave girl's entire face changed, and she shook her head nervously and said: "I don't know, I don't know, I really don't know this, in short, don't mention the three words corpse**, I don't know anything." Don't mention it......" The cave girl's expression was a little trance-like, and even with horror in her eyes, it seemed that the word corpse ** was an untouchable taboo for her.
Zi Lingyu said: "I guessed correctly, you are the person who is the corpse **, right?"
"Ahh
Zi Lingling's words sped up, and said: "It is rumored that the people of the four veins, once they reach the age, will automatically enter the cave and participate in the way of heaven, it is rumored that if these old-timers can break the way of heaven and man here, they can soar in the day and enter the corpse......! In fact, the cave is a passage connected with the corpse, this passage, can enter but not exit, so when you escape from the corpse, the corpse ** people are helpless against you at all, you think you can pass through the guΓ² here, enter the mortal world, how do you know, this outside a miasma forest has disrupted your wishful thinking, you only use this kind of evil magic learned from the corpse**, collude with people outside, use the corpse** The secret to seduce them, create the so-called legend of the cave god, and let Miao Jiang Lao Si continue to send underage girls and children into the cave, you are using this kind of evil magic to hit the idea of entering the cave girl here, and use both grace and power to deceive their bodies, so that they can continue their lives in the human world, am I right?"
"So, you're not a cave girl at all!
The cave girl slowly let go of her hand, then stared at Zi Lingyu tightly, and said, "You are really smart, smarter than all the girls I have met before. β
"But I still can't get out, I'm still going to die. β
"What my identity is, you don't need to be so clear at all, but since you have already started to wooden, you can't stop this result, it's still that deal, you give me your soul, and I'll take you out. β
Zi Lingyu said: "If you can take me out of this place and hand me over to a man, but please don't tell him the truth." β
"Many cave girls have asked me to take them out, but they all want to make their identity clear to their beloved man, but you, hehe, interesting, say, who is the person you love?"
Zi Lingling seemed to be thinking, and Tang Fang, who was eavesdropping on the side, was inexplicably nervous, and a layer of cold sweat broke out in his hands for no reason.
Zi Lingling finally spit out two words:
Tang Fang
