Chapter 20: The Statue of the City God

Walking inside, I wondered.

This kind of cold is too weird.

Even Fujun Village, where the snow was falling before I came here, didn't make me as cold as I am now.

But here, it made me feel the urge to turn around and leave.

If it weren't for my intellect telling me I couldn't leave now, I wouldn't have hesitated to turn around and leave.

I don't know how long it took me.

The further I went inside, the darker it became, and I was only sure that I was going all the way down, and that I was already walking far, as if I was really going to hell now.

I couldn't help but mumble to myself.

"What the hell is this, where does it lead?"

I didn't stop until the sound of corpses and coffins died down.

Not far in front of me, a glimmer of light finally appeared, and under that glimmer I could faintly see the figure of the corpse and the coffin, standing at the exit of the corridor, as if waiting for something.

Then there was the sound of water.

Tick.

Tick......

Tick......

There were several sounds, until there seemed to be a mist at the exit, and the body suspected of Zhang Huaiqing walked out of the corridor with the coffin again.

I followed again and stopped at the exit of the corridor.

It's just that at the same time, the sight in front of me makes me gasp.

If it was Fujun Village that hundreds of people were killed by the godfather overnight, it would have had a great impact on me, then the corpses everywhere in front of me, like purgatory on earth, made me feel a kind of fear that went straight to the heavenly spirit cover.

I'm bold enough.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to come here alone.

But at this time, my legs were still trembling subconsciously.

At a glance, it is densely packed with white bones.

I don't even know how many, I can't count.

The corpse and coffin were stepping on the white bones at this time, and in the center of those white bones was a statue, which looked solemn and majestic, like a god, but there was an indescribable weirdness in this environment.

In addition, there was a figure sitting on a futon in front of the statue.

The figure looked wet, with droplets of water constantly dripping from him.

A corpse and a coffin stopped behind the figure at this time, and after the coffin landed, the body suspected of Zhang Huaiqing knelt down directly, as if worshipping.

As I watched this scene, my heart jumped.

Is this a person?

I'm not sure, I can't breathe.

My subconscious mind tells me that I am on the verge of death right now.

Fortunately, he didn't seem to notice me, and after the body that seemed to be Zhang Huaiqing knelt on the ground, he finally stood up, and as he got up, the statue in front of him also seemed to come to life, and there was a faint voice that seemed to have the majesty of a god.

"City God's Amnesty."

"Open!"

It was just a few simple words, but when I heard it in my ears, it was like five thunderbolts, and I felt a sweet throat, if I hadn't endured it on the spot, I would have vomited a mouthful of blood.

At the same time, the lid of the big red coffin was finally opened.

And the wet figure walked towards the body that appeared to be Zhang Huaiqing at the same time, and then they merged into one under my nose.

This scene made my eyes widen, and a word appeared in my mind at the same time.

Resurrect the soul!

In some of the knowledge about sacrificial wine taught to me by my godfather, it was once said that the method of stealing the sky in the world, in addition to the opportunity to hide from the sky, there is also a method, which is to borrow the corpse to return the soul.

Name implies.

It is to resurrect a dead person with the help of a corpse in a special way.

This method can be called against the sky.

It's just that the person who is resurrected in this way, although he appears to be alive, is essentially a living dead, and the time that he can live again in this world depends on the amount of energy of the corpse he chooses.

And this energy.

In fact, it is the vitality of the corpse.

After the corpse is completely corrupted, the person is really dead, and even if he doesn't die, the soul will become a lonely ghost again.

What I saw in front of me, apart from the method of stealing the sky and resurrecting the soul of the corpse, I really couldn't think of anything that could make them one.

It's just that......

I looked at the big red coffin with the lid open.

I originally thought that the target of the Linjiang corpse was the body of my cheap wife, but now, it seems to be the corpse of Zhang Huaiqing?

Or rather.

At this time, with the help of the suspected corpse of Zhang Huaiqing, it was not the corpse of Linjiang?

Linjiang corpse, lame dog, city god temple.

These three words are the three clues that my godfather left me before he died, and they are also the three things I want to do.

Could it be that the real Linjiang corpse is the city god?

Thinking of this, my eyes couldn't help but shrink.

His gaze subconsciously fell on the statue.

This statue, if I'm not mistaken, is the City God.

The voice I heard just now seemed to be shouting some kind of forgiveness from the city god.

It's just that this is not a city god temple.

And in a place that is not a city god temple, there is a statue of a city god, which is not right in itself.

The more I thought about it, the more I thought it was likely, and the more frightened I became.

What kind of existence is a city god?

Rumor.

There is a yin god in the world, guarding the people of a city.

It's called City God!

In the homes of some ordinary people, they may not worship any Taishan Mansion Jun and Houtu Niangniang, but most of them will worship the City God and call it the City God.

Although the city god is not one, according to legend, there will be one in every city, but as the god of the yin, it is also a real god who enjoys the incense of the world.

"I must be thinking too much."

I mentally denied this speculation.

Although I believe that there is a God in the world.

My cheap wife also has an inexplicable relationship with Hou Tu Niang.

When I left the village, I had something to do with Taishan Mansion.

But at this time, I may have another City God now, and I am doing something that is very likely to have something to do with him, isn't it...... To die?

I had a toothache for a while.

I was thinking about slipping away first.

The big red coffin trembled even more.

Then I saw the remains of my cheap wife suddenly sit up, and after the jade-like skeleton stood up, a layer of red shadows appeared faintly around the body.

Although it was vague, I could still be sure that it was my cheap wife.

It's just that this is not the main thing, the main thing is that after my cheap wife appeared, the statue of the city god was directly shattered, and then a dog barked out.

A black dog appeared in the shattered statue of the city god.

It walked towards the skeleton of my cheap wife.

Limp.

It's a lame dog!
