Chapter 1233: Torture Chamber
Are there any ghosts in this dark room?
He sighed, walked around, then stopped in the corner of the darkroom and looked down at something: "There are surprises here." ”
He Lingchuan took a closer look, it was a wooden birdcage.
At least it resembles a birdcage, but it has no columns, no sinks, only grilles and a small door.
Dong Rui also came over to take a look: "This is a cage made of wood on the bottom of the sea." ”
Wood on the bottom of the sea can inhabit souls, and this alone makes this so-called "birdcage" not ordinary.
Fu Liushan raised the bell and approached the cage, and it rang softly twice.
"Come out." He put away the bell, "I don't hurt you, I just have something to ask you." ”
The cage was silent, and at first glance it looked empty and empty.
Fu Liushan took out a stick of incense and lit it, and blew the smoke towards the cage.
In the smoke, it seems that a vague shadow is raised.
"Show up, don't toast, don't eat, eat and drink!" Fu Liushan pointed the shiny cigarette butt at this shadow, "I don't want to torture you like the Xuanlu Ghost King. ”
Hearing the words "Xuanlu Ghost King", the shadow moved a few times, and finally got up from the bottom of the cage and gathered into a human form.
It inhaled a few hard breaths, and the smoke was sucked clean.
Fu Liushan's special incense is a tonic for weak ghosts, helping them stabilize their human form.
The shadow appeared to be a man in his twenties, but it was described as withered, and the right shoulder was empty.
It's actually a ghost with a broken arm.
Fu Liushan is also a person who can chat: "Such a big cage, you live alone?" ”
The Severed Arm Ghost spoke, and his voice was harsh: "There are more than thirty of them." ”
"It was a really cramped stay. What about them? ”
"Eaten." The Severed Arm Ghost took two steps forward, "They were originally Xuanlu's food. Before the ghost king escaped, he asked the ghost slave to catch them and feed them to himself to eat to replenish his strength. ”
Dong Rui raised his eyebrows: "The ghost king escaped?" Are you sure? ”
"It's so badly damaged, there's only a little ghost energy left, I've never seen it so weak, and it even needs a ghost slave to hold it in a box." The severed arm ghost said, "It doesn't escape, is it just waiting for you to come to the door to collect it?" ”
"The other souls in the cage have been taken by it to replenish, why did it leak you?" Is it a trap left by the Ghost King?
"I've been in this cage for too long, longer than any other unlucky man. I know how to disperse my soul, and I can hide it from the ghost slave for a while. The severed arm ghost said abruptly, "Xuanlu was too anxious to escape, and he hurriedly ate up the captives here, and left without looking closely." I've been waiting for 80 years for such an opportunity! ”
"Eighty years?" Even He Lingchuan was a little moved, "You have been in this cage for eighty years?" ”
"What about 'waiting'?" The Broken Arm Ghost gritted his teeth and creaked. Prior to this, Lingguang had only heard of "ghost grinding teeth", and today I was finally fortunate to see it, "At most for a month, or as little as ten days, Xuanlu will arrest me and be tortured, either gouging out my eyes, chopping my hands, or cramping, all kinds of tricks!" ”
"Then heal me. As soon as my injuries recover, the next round of torture will be repeated! The back of the hand of the broken arm ghost grabbing the grille was bruised, "Eighty years! I've been doing this for 80 years! Five days ago, Xuanlu put my arm into the grinding disc and spent two hours grinding it into powder! ”
"Whether it's the wailing of humans or ghosts, it loves it very much!"
Fu Liushan couldn't help but say: "It especially likes to torture you, why?" ”
The Xuanlu Ghost King specially left a ghost and tortured him for eighty years?
It's not like, it's hate.
"It hates me to the bone." The Severed Arm Ghost really said, "It hates my ancestors to the bone!" ”
"Who were your ancestors?"
"Eighty years ago, I was doing a small business in Yaopo, and I had already married and had children. Although the days are ordinary, where is the luxury in the troubled times? The Severed Arm Ghost whispered, "One night, the Xuanlu Ghost King sneaked in and killed my entire family, eating the souls of my wife and children in front of me. It said, "My ancestors betrayed it, and when it was at its end, cut off its head to make a sacrifice!" ”
"It searched for more than two hundred years, and finally found the descendants of the traitor. After it killed me, it imprisoned my soul and tortured me in a different way. I begged it to give me a good time, but the Xuanlu Ghost King said that if there is it for a day, there will be a day for me to suffer, and it will be neither early nor late. ”
He Lingchuan understood when he heard this. Three hundred years ago, Wang Xuanlu fled into the Howling Forest, and finally did not die in the hands of Bao Ning, but was cut off by his subordinates. With his temperament, he turned into a ghost after death, and of course he never forgot revenge.
Bao Ning's descendants were killed by it, how could the subordinate who betrayed him be spared?
The ghost king hates him even more, so he wants to torture his offspring for no end.
"Do you know how desperate I am?" The Severed Arm Ghost grabbed the grate and shouted, "Then I don't want to die, I swear, one day I will take revenge, and I will cut off its head like my ancestors!" ”
Fu Liushan took out the treasure pestle: "We just wish to do it for you." You should most of all ask for relief. ”
He is a heavenly master, and it is his duty to transform ghosts.
"Wait, wait!" The Broken Arm Ghost hurriedly waved his hand, "I can help you chase down the Xuanlu Ghost King!" ”
"You're stuck here, how can you help?"
"I know its breath best, and I can track it everywhere it has been in three hours!" The Severed Arm Ghost struggled to prove his worth, "Besides, its men are here to torture people, I've heard a lot of secrets, a lot! They never shy away from me, they think I can't get out. ”
"For example?"
"For example, this was once the Immortal Cave Mansion. The dark chamber we are in, which used to be the torture chamber of the immortals, is full of all kinds of torture instruments......"
"Wait." Dong Rui was surprised and interrupted, "This is the torture chamber of the immortals?" What does it mean that immortals punish others? ”
"Yes, that's what it means. I've heard them say that when the Xuanlu Ghost King first discovered this place, there were all kinds of torture instruments here, but the specifications were very large, and they didn't look like they were for people; Also, there were a number of corpses tied up here, some with their chests cut open, some with their heads cut off, but they weren't small, and they didn't look like ......."
Dong Rui thought it was speaking too slowly: "It's not like a human being? ”
"Yes, yes, it's not like a human."
Dong Rui's gaze showed a little fanaticism: "Like the two bones outside that were pierced by swords on the wall?" ”
"Uh, or, maybe."
He Lingchuan and Fu Liushan looked at each other when they listened:
What does that mean? The immortals who live in this cave house torture the heavenly demons?
The title of "immortal" sounds like a fairy. However, in ancient times, the war between immortals and demons had already been white-hot, and the two sides were red-eyed, what means couldn't be used?
The heavenly demons are ruthless, are the immortals very loving?
