Chapter 63, Skeletons
The preparation that Zhang Long said was actually to use a secret method to cover the breath of the living on our bodies, so that it would be difficult for the snake spirit to perceive us, and he didn't know where to use the material, it was black, it looked very disgusting, and it always smelled strange, he used this thing to steam it dry, and then made it into a powder and smeared it on us, this thing tasted a lot smaller after becoming a powder, otherwise Xia Qing and Ye Xin would not agree to anything.
Xia Qing, this girl is a master who likes to mess around, she has also heard her master talk about cultivation, the world's Xuanmen is decent, all to eliminate the devil and defend the road as their own responsibility, she has never gone down the mountain, but there is already a bit of chivalry on her body, she has to go to this neighborhood to see what demons and monsters, want to see it, so she went out alone, until the evening did not come back, the sunset, red as blood, is for dusk, giving people a sense of ominous.
"How long has this girl been out, why hasn't she come back yet, it won't really make her get into any trouble, right?"
I was a little worried, Zhang Long seemed to be very tired from preparing those materials, and he had fallen asleep a long time ago, Ye Xin and Lin Qiwei also went to prepare some materials to deal with demons, such as cinnabar, yellow paper, etc., at the moment, I was the only one free, and I had no choice but to search for Xia Qing's possible place.
After searching for about two hours, I had left the village and entered the mountains.
In ancient times, there were often wars and famines, and after these people died, many of them were thrown into these mountains, and over time, they became some dead souls, and these dead souls became lonely souls and wild ghosts, and they did not want to be reincarnated, and they suffered too much during their lives, resulting in great resentment after death, especially the graves.
In the evening, in the twilight, I walked on a road that had been deserted for a long time, and I felt a little cold, this cold did not come from the cold of the evening temperature dropping, but a kind of creepy cold, always feeling that something was following you behind you.
As I walked on, as I walked, a faint mist suddenly appeared, and although I had a flashlight, my vision was very limited under the influence of this fog, and I wanted to leave this place quickly, and I always felt that something very terrible would happen.
Walking and walking, I found a stone tablet, this stone tablet has been a long time, it is covered with moss, it has been abandoned for a long time, the words on this stone tablet are still very clear, engraved, "This is the burial of bones, do not approach the living", the burial of bones, in ancient times was not used to describe the tomb mountain, the tomb on the tomb is normal tomb, so although the yin is heavy, but there is no harmful thing, and the burial place is different, the burial place refers to the tomb group, is the place where a lot of corpses are buried, this kind of place is very dangerous, if you accidentally enter, Something big weird is going to happen.
When I was about to leave, I suddenly saw a rag on the ground, this cloth was on a person's clothes, and it was very clean, and looking at this color, I was shocked, who else could there be besides Xia Qing, how did she enter the place where the bones were buried?
I don't know what happened to her, but I have countless MMPs in my heart, where to go is not good, to go to such a dangerous place.
Saving people is like fighting fires, time waits for no one, so even if I know that the front is a dangerous and abnormal place to bury bones, I still choose to move on.
I made a choice, I didn't hesitate, I walked straight forward, farther and farther away from the stone monument, when I really got close to this place where the bones were buried, I felt a clicking sound around me, very clear, but I couldn't detect the movement, I couldn't help but feel a little weird.
It wasn't until the fog grew thicker and thicker, and white dry bones began to appear under my feet, that I realized that something was wrong, because the bones looked like human bones in both length and shape, and the fog was so thick that such white dry bones could be seen everywhere on the ground, and it was like a paradise for the dead.
Suddenly, a clicking sound sounded behind me, and I saw a skeleton moving in front of me, it obviously didn't have a piece of flesh on its body, it was indeed able to connect the bones, forming the shape of a human, it looked at me blankly, I also looked at it a little blindly, at this time, it suddenly strode towards me, stretched out its hand as if to hug me, I saw that he opened his mouth, the angle was almost 180 degrees.
I was so frightened that I stretched out my hand directly, Hanmei appeared in my hand, I slashed forward with a sword, the sword slashed at the skeleton man, making a loud sound, where it was cut, burst open, and dropped a lot of bone fragments that fell, my sword because it was a hurried shot, my posture was a little wrong, I didn't knock down this skeleton, but the reaction force of the attack almost didn't let the sword come out of my hand, I stumbled.
I was about to retreat, at this time, I don't know when I was grabbed by a skeleton hand, I didn't dodge its attack for a while, it hit my head hard, hit me in the chest, it didn't hurt very much, its strength was not very strong, but the sharp parts of the bones on its body made me feel a little numb scalp, I didn't want to be torn apart by a skeleton man who had been dead for an unknown number of years with bone claws.
I was a little anxious, my thighs turned wildly, twitched repeatedly, and finally broke away from the ghost claw, but because of this, my pants were scratched by this thing, and the rags fell to the ground.
There was a constant clicking sound around me, as if it was a thousand waves, countless skeletons began to appear in the fog, under my feet, around me, there were constantly skeleton people began to stand up, and the chill spread in my heart, how many people are buried, am I standing on human bones?
There was a lot of yin around me, but there were no ghosts, only skeletons everywhere, they were dumbfounded, unconscious, they couldn't even tell my direction, they could only walk around, these skeletons had no intelligence, and their speed was limited, so although my situation was very dangerous, there was still a possibility of escape.
What makes me desperate now is the white expanse in front of me, and I can't see the road at all.
Walking around at will may make my situation more dangerous, when I used my sword to deal with a few skeletons, I saw a white light, the light came from under my feet, I walked towards the light, and found that it was a cave, and around me were countless piles of bones piled up like small hills, this is not a cave, more like a gate, and this gate is full of moss, you can imagine how old it is.
The gate was simply made of stone, and inside was a regular tunnel, connected to a deep place, and inside was a burial pit, and at this time, I heard Xia Qing's voice, although it was very slight, but she seemed to be enduring some pain, it was a low roar.
I found some blood stains on the ground, it was still very fresh, it should have been left by Xia Qing, she was injured, it is not easy to be injured with her skills, what kind of place is this? I wondered, and I felt dangerous, that this place had formed a strange place, and it was clear that some force was influencing it.
Those skeletons are unconscious, and they are indeed able to send out some attacks on their own, not ghostly, but they feel more like they are affected by some force, like a magnetic field?
I followed the blood trail all the way down, the ground here is made of stone bricks, there are many pits around the stone chamber, these pits are placed in a lot of dry bones, compared to the bones in the outside world, these dry bones seem to be noble, there are brass rings on the fingers, this should be a status symbol, so the corpses placed in this underground cemetery are not as messy as the bones outside.
The bones are like a forest, that's the scene.
There is no defense in these stone chambers, obviously there is no protection against tomb robbers or anything, but I also didn't find anything valuable, it is estimated that the tomb robbers are coming, and there is nothing to steal, the only value here is the brass ring on the hand of the corpse, but the things on the corpse to take down, who dares to say that this thing will not move?
