The old man suddenly said, "No matter how old this photo is, it is only a matter of decades, but the portrait of the Cong Yu family is hundreds of years old." Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info I think this has nothing to do with the return of the nine souls, and the people in this village have the pendant of the nine souls on their necks. There is a good chance that they are the faith. ”

"Don't take a walk around the village? "It's already to this extent, if you don't understand the role of the Nine Souls, it's really hard to sleep.

We packed our backpacks and wandered around the village for a long time, but we didn't find anyone. Brother Qiang casually pointed to a courtyard wall, "Go in and take a look, all the people in this village died overnight?"

After Brother Qiang finished speaking, he climbed into the wall. This wall is too low, and it is very simple to stack it with a pile of stones, and Brother Qiang is already standing in the courtyard without much effort.

There is a strange musty smell when you enter the house, which is mostly seen in the homes of the elderly who are lonely and widowed in rural areas. And this house is not old, the ground is still dirty, and it has been trampled on and shiny.

Entering the house is a kitchen, Brother Qiang lifted the stove and took a look, inside were two pieces of cold sweet potatoes left. Although it tastes a little, the whole house is still in order. There was only one curtain in the inner room, Cong Shuya and the old man went in and walked around, I glanced out of the curtain, although the quilt on the bed did not look very clean, but it was very neat.

"No one lived here last night, was it underground?" I looked at the old man. The old man snorted, "Why don't we go underground again?" and study what your monster friend has become in the end." ”

Brother Qiang can't stand this kind of detective-like work the most, and he can't wait to go underground to take a look. We didn't dare to take any other way, so we went into the hole from the well of Sanwa's house. The familiar car came to the end, and Brother Qiang stretched out his head to look down at the front.

None of us turned on our flashlights, just lit a candle, and the palace below was also a black hole. Brother Qiang directly turned on the flashlight and shone it down, I wanted to pull him, but the old man waved his hand, "There's nothing down there, let's go down and take a look." ”

When I went down to the palace, I saw what I couldn't see the night before. Above a stone platform, at this time a monster was hanging from a chain, sparkling with blood, with its head bowed, and it seemed to be a god.

The old man walked over, pulled his head and examined the corpse, "No, he's different." "I asked why it was different, this monster was different from us, and it had a tail.

"He's not in this situation, he's trapped in a monster. The old man dragged his calculating head hard, and pointed the flashlight at his chest, so that I could see more clearly.

A big hole was cracked in his chest, and the whole person was sparkling with blood in it. The outer layer of his body was like a thick layer of snake skin, enveloping him in, and tube-like tissue pierced into the flesh, revealing only one head. It's as if a person is wearing a strange layer of clothing, but this layer of skin is obviously some kind of creature.

The old man used his hand to pick open the wounds on Shen Shuzhang's body, which were full of fist-sized tumors, with noses and eyes.

I took two steps back, and my heart was clouded, this image of God is not the only one, there are such monsters in this village, could it be that this strange skin like something swallowed people into it?

"God must have wanted to tell us something before he died, but unfortunately his death, many things may always be a mystery. At this time, the palace was empty, and some were just hanging gods.

Brother Qiang looked at it, "Old man karma, did he look like this by himself or was parasitized by something, how does it feel like a snake swallowed half of it, and one head is outside." ”

"It's definitely parasitic. I stood up and went back to see what we saw when he died, and how long it had been since he died until we saw him under the reservoir. Unless it's a Transformer, how can it be possible to grow a dragon's tail in such a short time. ”

"This old thing has a word on its neck, old man, what is this word. Brother Qiang almost shouted, the old man turned around the god and looked around, and Brother Qiang reached out to wipe the blood stains on it in order to see more clearly. "It's a Miao word. "No need to be an old man, I know this word, and the deciphered word on the golden seal is almost imprinted in my head.

"Looks like we're going to have to go to Miao Village. The old man stared at the Xia seal character, as if he was talking to himself.

"This is how the monsters in this village are formed?" I suddenly thought of the strange tradition of choosing the patriarch of this village, "The patriarch of this village has never changed, this monster has lived for a long time, and when a person is not suitable to continue to parasitize, he will re-elect the patriarch." ”

"There's some truth to your analysis. "Old man Ye sat down, I lit a cigarette with Brother Qiang, and the old man said to him, "If this patriarch is parasitized, then the selection process is probably the time for this monster to change its host." As for going to the tomb, it is not only convenient, but it may also have other purposes. ”

"What purpose?" Cong Shuya asked, in fact, she didn't understand it from the outside. The old man continued, "I don't know exactly what the purpose is, but it is possible in many ways. Snake molt, this thing must have been brought out before, otherwise I wouldn't have been stunned in the cave. Nine Souls Return, that monster has a Nine Souls Return in his hand, but why does he still rob this one in our hands, and how does it know that we have this thing in our hands. And the bloody coffin in the cave, I don't know what's inside, I think it has something to do with it. Also, the three babies are extremely devout to the Nine Souls, and our appearance is probably not a secret in the eyes of that monster at all. He knew what we were here for, and it was likely that the whereabouts of the villagers had been arranged by the monster all along. ”

Cong Shuya turned around and groped for the wall, "Didn't you find a problem, there is no door to the outside here." Those people came in through the same hole as we did?"

"Looking for their way in, I want to know where they have gathered and where the people of this village have gone. As he spoke, the old man groped around.

Brother Qiang is also knocking and touching this, and he is making a lot of trouble.

I kept finishing my cigarette and throwing the cigarette butt away. With a snort, a ball of fire erupted from where the cigarette butt landed. With a bang, a flame burned to my face, and after a burst of heat, my eyebrows were gone, my whole face was hot, and the hairs in my nostrils seemed to be burned.

I fell to the side, in a bit of a trance, "What is this?" ”

The old man reminded everyone to cover their mouths and noses and try not to smell the smell: "This is the flame that burns us at night." The monster doesn't know what is burning, it's hallucinating, and the monster is controlling the villagers. ”
