Chapter 38: Under the Hanging Coffin

As we walked on, there were abandoned wooden barrels at the end, and snow dripping into them, and the cold wind howled wildly from the house. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

It was shivering cold, and he said, "It seems that this is a bathtub for people to bathe." ”

He looked inside, the bath water was even more turbid, and if he looked closely, there were still some yellow, yellow, green and green sticky things floating on the water, and Jing'er said: "This seems to be a human molt, but this is a pure human molt, and there is no trace of other creatures." How could there be so many ......"

"Yes, the guy who can fill a whole bathtub has to be three feet tall. Sixteen flicked the rosary in his hand, and he said, "This should be the bathroom, let's go and look elsewhere." ”

"Eh, master, is that you, master?" came the faint voice of the cannon from next door, and it turned out that the cannon saw him through the crack in the wall. Sixteen: "It's me, how are you doing over there?"

Cannon Qiang said: "Hey, it's a deserted guest room. ”

The wind and snow were still blowing, and the cannon was so cold that it shrank back, and it was seen that the middle of the two aisles was very narrow, leaving only a slit to blow into the wind and snow, in order to make the right passage more wide. Sixteen looked at the wall to the right, which was so dense with bricks that it was impossible to hear the sound.

Sixteen: "The cannon is strong, you go back to the lobby to build a bonfire, it will be night soon, and the weather will be very cold." ”

"What about you, Master?"

"The road to the second floor should be on the far right, I'll go to the second floor to investigate, and I'll be back in the lobby soon. ”

"Well, you all hear that? The cannon pulled his rough voice and commanded the hunters to go back. They rubbed their bodies, and the weather was freezing even in the house.

Outside the lobby, there was a gust of ghostly air!

The cannon beckoned the men to close the door, and they both worked together to close the heavy door in the wind, and some of them smashed the floor and lit a bonfire in the hall.

"Wow, I'm freezing to death. ”

"People have been sleeping here for decades and don't shout freezing, what qualifications do you have to call indiscriminately. ”

"But people have coffins. ”

"You can use it too!" Orion gestured with his hand, "Oh, the empty coffin." ”

"How many coffins are there?"

"That's fourteen pairs in all...... But there were only thirteen coffins before!" The hunters looked at each other, their eyes wider than lanterns. I saw that there were indeed thirteen pear wood coffins lying honestly on the ground, but the fourteenth coffin was underground. The planks cracked a terrible crack in the coffin, and it was only then that the jet-black coffin could be glimpsed. This coffin is about three feet long and one foot wide. "Wow, it's so big, are there still people locked up here?" Orion's voice began to tremble, the outside of the coffin was pitch black, but the inside and inside of the coffin lid were bright red.

The coffin looked so new and so huge that it was weird.

Cannon Qiang said: "The arrows are all well wound, I'll go to the master, be careful around." He remembered that the master had said that the entrance to the second floor was on the far right, and that was the path where the ghost knife had taken in the first place.

The corridor on the far right is particularly warm, much wetter than the other two.

It's a wonderful liquefaction phenomenon.

Because the aisles are warm and the outside is bitterly cold, the water vapor is all liquefied, and it becomes a drop of water that adheres to the masonry and even salivates, as moist and warm as a cave deep underground. The cloth soles of the Ghost Knife boots were also creaking, and she looked down as if she had stepped on something sticky, and picked it up with a short dagger to look, "Tsk, isn't this human skin?" She looked back and realized that she had walked so far. She must have walked so far, why is there no end to it? There are no roundabouts in the corridor, it is a straight road, she is the first to enter, and her steps are very fast, and she should have come to the end a long time ago.

The ghost knife suddenly stood here.

She narrowed her eyes and estimated the distance between the road ahead and here, there was a statue of King Kong in front of her, and it was about twenty paces ahead of her. She took a few tentative steps, but the statue was still so far away, and a few steps back, so far away, as if no matter where she went, the statue of the Arhat always kept a distance of twenty paces from her.

"Ghosts get in the way."

A terrible slang rang in her head.

It's like a ghost standing in front of you, making you lose sight of your route, and even if it's a straight road under your feet, you'll eventually go back to square one. In an instant, the ghost cried wolf, and countless bright red resentful spirits rose around the ghost knife, they either opened their teeth and danced their claws, or wept and screamed, and even locked the ghost knife's ankle with their thin fingertips, making her unable to move. These resentful spirits suddenly converged into a huge hideous human face, and it opened its huge mouth with interlaced canine teeth, and was about to bite the ghost knife, but it was frightened away by the ghost sight on the waist of the ghost knife. The ghost knife glanced at his waist, remembered the effect of partridge grass, and held it to his nose and sniffed it violently, and suddenly came to his senses.

"Whew......" She found herself soaked in cold sweat, and saw Sixteen coming slowly from behind.

Sixteen said: "Seeing that you are motionless, you should not scream, is there something in trouble?"

The ghost knife said, "Thanks to your ghost sorrow and partridge grass, I was attacked by evil spirits and almost couldn't get out. ”

"How can there be a resentful spirit?" Sixteen was puzzled, although there were thirteen coffins here, they had long since lost their breath, otherwise he could feel it. So Sixteen sniffed lightly, he smelled a very strong corpse gas, and said, "It's not good, this guy tastes so heavy, it must be very powerful." ”

The ghost knife unloaded the black cloth and quickly took a small cloth bag from her waist, which was filled with Persian gunpowder, and she began to sort out the first machine spring of the Eight Soul Chasing Blades.

Persian gunpowder is her most commonly used mechanism, which needs to be reloaded every time it is used, but its sheer power is difficult for even the great demon who cultivates the flesh to compete head-on. Sixteen remembered that she had already filled it in once, and then she saw that the first spring had a small round hole, and the amount of gunpowder could be seen in the hole. Originally, gunpowder occupied 30% of the capacity of this round hole, but the addition of the ghost knife actually compacted the round hole, which is 10% of the firepower.

Sixteen: "I'm afraid this dose will break your arm." ”

"I'll trade one hand for one life, it's worth it. ”

There was a dark figure in the aisle rushing over, and the ghost knife almost came out, but fortunately she was not a reckless person, and she could see clearly that the person who came was a cannon. Cannon Qiang said: "Great, master, you are all here." We found the fourteenth coffin from under the thirteen coffins, it was so wicked. ”

Sixteen hurriedly asked, "How many coffins are these fourteenth coffins underneath?"

"I ...... I didn't count it, but it should be in the middle, like six or seven coffins. ”

"Hurry back to the lobby. As soon as the sixteenth word came out, everyone rushed towards the lobby, but there were violent fighting sounds and wails in the lobby. By the time they arrived, the fighting had subsided, and there was a mess of it, with crossbows and crossbows everywhere, and everyone was dead.

It looked like they were shooting at each other with waterfall crossbows, and the arrows burst open, blasting all over the ground with arrows.

The ghost knife noticed that some people were not dead, and their fingers holding the crossbow seemed to twitch a little, and they pushed Sixteen away! The three of them were pretending to be dead, and they secretly shot three arrows! The child and mother arrows were special arrows in the Sixteen study, and the big arrows would explode about seven sharp small arrows after hitting the target, and the ghost knife didn't have time to avoid it, and the shoulder was still injured by the small arrow, but he roared angrily, "Close your eyes!" The Eight Soul Chaser Knife burst out with earth-shattering white light.

The white light had just dissipated, and three heads fell to the ground.

It all happened so fast that sixteen saw three headless corpses slowly fall to their knees, blood spreading all over the ground. The ghost knife gripped her shoulder tightly, and she tore off the black cloth to bandage the wound, expertly tying a dead knot with her mouth.

Sixteen sniffed lightly, but could no longer smell the corpse.

"Master, what's the matter with the coffin?"

Judging from the arrangement, the thirteen coffins on the ground are called "hanging coffins", which are used for suppression, in order to absorb the aura and resentment of the underground coffins through each of the thirteen coffins. So what this huge coffin in the ground is nothing short of. Sixteen looked at the ghost knife, "She was also attacked by resentful spirits just now, I am afraid that it was the owner of this giant coffin who caused them to hallucinate and attack each other." ”

Ghost Knife glanced at the corpses, and there were seven or eight people who did not wear Ghost Sorrow and Partridge Grass, and three or two people only hurriedly stuffed a Partridge Grass into their waists. Who would have thought that they would bury their lives for the sake of such a small comfort! They must have died in vain.

It seems that the resentful spirits first confused these unworn ghosts, and the others fought back, but the general trend was gone, and the whole army was wiped out.

Cannon Qiang fell to his knees all of a sudden, "Wow! You died so miserably~ I will avenge you!"

Sixteen: "It's not gone yet." ”

The cannon shrank behind sixteen with a strong "wow", "Big, big, master, that, that, that, that, where is it?"

Sixteen: "Everywhere." ”

He saw the people on the ground still steaming, the viscous and yellow substance apparently extending from the coffin, and the corpse qi emanated from these fresh people, which quickly diminished with the passage of time.

"You said this guy is suspicious!" "The ghost knife was a little angry, at this time the hand of a corpse suddenly moved, it turned out that there was still a hunter who pretended to be dead, he quietly stood up from the ground, picked up the crossbow and aimed at the head of the ghost knife, "boom" sounded, it was a short dagger with a stainless steel handle that shot through the head of the hunter first. Orion fell to the ground with a bang, and the ghost knife head didn't return, and the other two didn't even notice the action.

Sixteen said, "It must be eating people all the time before it has a lot of energy for it to molt." ”

The cannon was strong enough to point at the corpses of these hunters, "One less person must have been taken by it." Thinking of this, the cannon was strong and there was a chill.

The ghost knife said: "Then this place is safe for the time being, we are here to find the Gu people, don't let it mess with the direction." ”

Sixteen said, "That's right." There is not only the human skin of the coffin corpse here, but also the "molt" of the Gu man, I think the Gu man is hiding somewhere on the second floor. ”

The ghost knife said, "Then go find it!"

Sixteen: "But your hurt ......"

Even if the ghost knife deliberately suppressed it, Sixteen could see the severity of her injuries. The ghost knife himself also understands that if it is not cleaned quickly, wound infection is a trivial matter, and tetanus is dangerous. After all, it was bruised by an iron arrow.

Sixteen said, "Let us not be too far apart, so that we may take care of one another." ”

The ghost knife said, "I don't want you to care!" and left with his head stiffened.
