The evil wind came unexpectedly and was extremely strong, blowing on everyone like a sickle, which was very strange.
But as soon as the candle was extinguished, a stream of warm liquid was sprinkled on my face, which was full of fishy odor.
I wiped a handful on my hand and realized that it was actually blood. My heart skipped a beat. Someone was injured?
"Quick, light the candle." I shouted quickly.
Shen Ming did not dare to delay, and quickly lit the candle again. The light illuminated the surroundings, and there was a headless corpse in front of me. Blood was gushing out of the broken neck. Like a spring, there was a head on the ground. , it belongs to Old Man Jiang. His eyes are not closed, they are wide open, and he will not close his eyes!
Old Man Jiang is dead! And he died miserably!
There are no ordinary people here, so even with such a horrifying and bloody scene, no heart-rending screams were heard, but everyone's face turned completely white and extremely ugly.
At this time, there was silence, and everyone was silent. Looking at the headless corpse and Old Man Jiang's head, everyone was more or less frightened.
The number of people we came in was not five, but eight, because in addition to Shen Ming, the other three families also brought one person, and the person Old Man Jiang brought was a middle-aged woman, about forty years old, but she seemed to be a The mute, who was a little short and fat, saw her master die tragically. Her body softened and she knelt on the ground, looking completely lost.
I don't know what she was thinking, but she looked very sad. She couldn't speak, but she cried loudly.
The followers of Yin people are usually deaf, mute and blind, because such people with incomplete destiny are suitable for this line of work, and they are sincere to their master. If you give him a bowl of rice, she will treat you like a dog, without any second thoughts.
"How, how could it be possible? Isn't the birth gate the correct answer?"
Xu Chunxue was the first to speak. She licked her dry red lips. She was extremely nervous because if she chose the wrong answer, she would die!
"No, the door of life is the wrong answer. It's too dark here. You should choose the door of death and live toward death."
At this time, the man who had been silent finally spoke. He was the last one. From the beginning to now, he basically didn't speak much.
This man is about thirty years old and about the same height as me. From the conversation, we can learn that his name is Yan Bei.
The four major Feng Shui families, Shen, Jiang, Xu, and Yan, have always monopolized all business in Yinxing. As for their strength, it is unknown.
The Yan family seems to be a new addition, because the previous Lin family was exterminated by the old beggar, so now it is replaced by the Yan family. However, the Yan family should be quite powerful in this city, otherwise it would not be his turn to take the position.
The people from these four major Feng Shui families may not be top-notch in strength, but their backgrounds and financial resources are definitely great.
Yan Bei's words reminded everyone that this place is like a dead end. You can't get out through the door of life. Only by choosing the door of death can you live towards death. Don't forget, this is a place of death!
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Shen Ming was a little annoyed. I told you earlier, didn't Old Jiang need to die? It was really unlucky to have someone die in the first place.
Yan Bei shook his head: "He acted too fast and didn't give me a chance. He was looking for death himself."
This is indeed true. Old Man Jiang may have been too confident. As soon as he finished speaking, he put his hand on the fingerprint. We didn't even react, and then he died.
This old man died of self-confidence!
"What should we do now? Press death?" Xu Chunxue looked at the eight palm prints on the ground, as if there were eight gates in front of her.
Qi Men Dun Jia is unpredictable. When it was first created, there were 4,320 rounds in total. Later, it was improved to 1,080 rounds. By the time of the Zhou Dynasty, Jiang Shang reduced it to 72 rounds due to the need for marching and formation. In the Han Dynasty, it was reduced to 72 rounds. After Zhang Liang received the teaching from Huang Shigong, he reformed it again and became the nine rounds of Yin Dun and nine rounds of Yang Dun that are currently used, for a total of eighteen rounds.
If you want to crack the Eight Gates, you may need to combine a lot of Feng Shui knowledge and various Dunjia layouts.
"Press!" Yan Bei was as confident as Old Man Jiang. The difference was that he didn't dare to take action himself, he just gave orders.
Shen Ming couldn't stand it anymore and made a gesture of invitation: "Then you should press it!"
Yan Bei looked back at him, as if extremely dissatisfied: "Then why didn't you click the button?"
Dele, no one dared to press the button now, so they could only talk on paper. Old Man Jiang's death was a shock to everyone, and the body was still in front of them.
At this moment, the mute girl suddenly stood up. She seemed to have seen her master dead, and she didn't want to live. Without saying a word, she pressed her hand directly on the door of death.
At this moment, a ghost shadow passed by and the candle was extinguished again. It seemed like something came out. It was extremely gloomy. At the last moment, I seemed to see a female ghost in red, with a strange look on her ferocious face. smile.
"There is a ghost, be careful." I warned, and the dark Tomb of Thousand Corpses immediately became commotion. I guess everyone was trying to take precautions.
Shen Ming quickly lit the candle again, but when the darkness subsided again, we saw that the mute girl was dead. She was split in half, her intestines splashed out all over the floor, and the blood stained her palm prints, but they seemed It's like sucking blood. The blood is quickly absorbed and then disappears. It's extremely weird.
The mute woman's body fell down, half on the left and half on the right. There was a crash, and many "parts" inside the body spilled out one after another, which was very disgusting.
Everyone was so frightened that they took a few steps back, and their faces became even paler. Looking at the scene in front of them, their eyes were filled with fear.
Another person died, neither the life gate nor the death gate, and there was a question, who killed him?
Both Old Man Jiang and the mute girl died instantly. It is estimated that even the deceased person did not react. Forget about the mute girl. Old Jiang has been practicing Taoism for decades, so he will not be killed by some evil spirit, right?
I think differently from them. One word appears in my mind now, that is eight! And the number of people we come in is also the same number. In other words, if we insist on trying until we get the answer right, then eight Among individuals, only one can survive!
Can only one person survive? Is it destined, or can it be solved? Or is there something already arranged for us from the moment we enter the door?
Among the three auspicious gates, the life gate is the most special, and among the three evil gates, the death gate is also the most special. The two opposite gates represent yin and yang, which means life or death, life or death, or life or death.
If neither of these two doors is right, it will be difficult to choose the remaining ones, and the tragic death of the two people has cast a psychological shadow on everyone, and no one will dare to try this again.
In less than ten minutes, the representatives of the Jiang family had been wiped out, leaving only the other three families and me.
"How about we go back? It's so scary."
Xu Chunxue breathed quickly, indicating that she was beginning to panic. Her chest was rising and falling, and there was cold sweat on her forehead and neck.
As long as one person takes the initiative to retreat, everyone will definitely start to respond.
Shen Ming also nodded: "I agree, it's too dangerous here. We don't have enough people with us, so we might as well come back another day."
Shen Ming was naturally afraid of death. He didn't want to take advantage of his bastard brother. If he stayed here, the Shen family would belong to Shen Ye.
Originally he was afraid of losing face, but now that Xu Chunxue has made a good start, he doesn't have to worry anymore.
Yan Bei still didn't speak. He didn't know what he was thinking. His eyes were fixed on the eight palm prints.
I didn't say anything, but I had no intention of going back. I came in, and there was no reason to retreat. Although the Eight Gates were complicated, there must be a way to crack them. In fact, the key was not the Eight Gates, but that this place was too weird and evil.
I'm thinking, if it were me, would I be killed instantly? What exactly is the thing that appears, and why can it kill people instantly without us even noticing?
As Old Man Jiang, we were unprepared, but as a mute girl, I had already begun to pay attention, and we did see a female ghost in red.
But she appeared very quickly and disappeared very quickly without a trace, as if she appeared and disappeared out of thin air.
There are many mysteries in this place, and the Eight Gates are just one of them.
I took out a yellow talisman and started doing the magic, but except for the extremely heavy Yin Qi, there were no ghosts at all. I opened the Yin and Yang Eyes but found nothing. I am not the only Feng Shui master here. If there are really ghosts, they should have been discovered long ago. Already.
But with so many people dead, why is there not a single resentful soul in the Tomb of Thousands of Corpses? There may be only one answer, and that is that all the souls were sacrificed.
The practice of sacrificing souls may be to pray for rain, or it may be to feed river demons to ensure safety, or it may be... to summon something, such as summoning ghosts from the eighteenth level of hell to kill people, and it also requires the blood of living people. soul.
Evil laws never change, and murder is the fundamental one! It’s just that the things offered are different.
Xu Chunxue and Shen Mingze didn't want to continue. They stepped over the many skeletons and corpses and walked towards the door, wanting to open the door and go out and leave this terrible place.
But at this moment, I saw two skeleton ghouls standing behind the two of them. The two ghouls were completely fleshless and had no eyeballs in their eye sockets. They were like black holes. They were wearing silver armor and holding ring-shaped swords. He raised his heads high towards Shen Ming and Xu Chunxue.
But the strange thing is that the two of them are completely unaware. No matter how good they are, they are still sinister people. How could they not notice these two terrifying corpses?
Evil, so evil!
"Be careful, lower your head quickly." I shouted quickly.
The two people's reaction was not too slow, and my voice was already loud, so they immediately realized that something was wrong.
Xu Chunxue immediately lowered his head, but Shen Ming was a little slower. The knife cut off a layer of scalp on the back of his head, and blood immediately poured out, but his life was saved.
"What?" Xu Chunxue rolled on the spot, then took out a magic pestle and looked behind her, but there was nothing behind her. Fortunately, Shen Ming was injured, otherwise the two of them would probably have said that I was playing tricks on them.
Chapter completed!
