Chu Yan looked along the direction pointed by Lin Miaoran.

Soon he saw a black line extending from the height of the stone pillar, forming an arc, and then dropped to the stone platform.

And there is more than one of these black lines.

From every stone pillar, several fell down.

These stone pillars are not just standing side by side on the stone platform, but are separated from each other and form an arc.

So these black lines, after falling from the height of the stone pillar, all converged towards the same position on the stone platform.

"Those are... chains." Chu Yan stared at it for a moment and then spoke softly.

Each chain should be about the same thickness as two of Chengrén's fingers put together.

It's just because the stone pillars are so thick that the chains look as thin as threads.

"There is something under the stone pillar." Chu Yan turned his head and looked towards Lin Miaoran.

Lin Miaoran obviously had the same idea as Chu Yan.

But at this moment, for some unknown reason, the place where the chains gathered seemed to be covered by a veil, making it difficult to see what was happening.

"Do you want..." Lin Miaoran pondered for a moment and then asked.

She wanted to get Chu Yan's opinion.

Now that we have come this far, if we don’t take a look, we will feel unwilling to do anything.

"Go over and have a look." Chu Yan nodded, took the first step, and at the same time said to Lin Miaoran behind him: "You walk behind me."

This was obviously done to buy time for Lin Miaoran in case of danger.

Lin Miaoran felt warm in her heart, hummed, and followed Chu Yan closely.

The moment they stepped onto the stone platform, the two of them suddenly felt an invisible pressure that suddenly fell on their hearts.

The source of the pressure is the four stone pillars.

Although these four stone pillars are just standing there, at this moment, it makes people feel like they are four dark giants, standing upright, standing there quietly, looking down.

An ordinary person would probably have weak legs at this time and would be unable to move forward.

The quieter the surroundings become, the pressure, like the continuous sea water, continues to accumulate and becomes heavier and heavier.

When Chu Yan approached where the chains gathered on the stone platform, he found that a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.

When he looked at Lin Miaoran again, Lin Miaoran's palms were already covered with sweat.

Moreover, Lin Miaoran's face was obviously a little pale.

Seeing Chu Yan looking at her at this moment, she smiled reluctantly: "It's okay."

A few steps further, Chu Yan and Lin Miaoran finally understood why they couldn't see where the chains gathered before, and what the specific situation was.

This area is shrouded in shadow, and there is a stone monument standing there.

Chu Yan and the others were standing at the end of the stone path, looking this way. Their sight was blocked by shadows and stone monuments, so naturally they couldn't see what was going on behind them.

"There are words on the stone tablet!"

Coming closer, Lin Miaoran let out a low cry.

Chu Yan looked up and saw a stone tablet almost as tall as a person with a big word "sin" written on it.

This character seems to have been drawn with a sword.

But that sharp edge almost cracked the stone with each stroke.

Just looking at each other at this moment, both Chu Yan and Lin Miaoran couldn't help but feel like a scimitar was pressing into their throats and they had difficulty breathing.

Chu Yan had only experienced this feeling from Tang Liang's extremely angry sword intent before.

But considering Tang Liang's extremely angry sword intent, the writings on the stone tablet seemed to be deeper and more powerful, with iron painted silver hooks, like a dragon lying in bed.

Under great psychological pressure, Chu Yan approached the stone monument and looked carefully.

After a while, he stepped back.

"How do you say it?" Lin Miaoran asked.

"The stone tablet must have been erected here for some years, but I can't tell the specific year." Chu Yan pondered for a moment and said, "It could be hundreds of years, or it could be thousands of years."

Lin Miaoran heard the words, pondered for a moment, and said, "Could it be related to what the corpse said before?"

Chu Yan was silent.

He remembered that when the corpse was walking towards him, he kept saying some incomprehensible words.

Judging from the meaning in those words, it seems that it was trapped here instead of being buried here on its own initiative.

And here there is a stone tablet with the word "sin" written on it, which can't help but make people think about it.

"Don't think about this." After a moment, Chu Yan raised his head.

"Um?"

"Look at what's behind the stone monument." When Chu Yan spoke, he had already walked around the stone monument and walked towards the back of the stone monument.

At the same time, his mouth was also explaining.

"Please pay attention to those chains. The place where they finally gathered is not this stone monument, but behind this stone monument. In other words, there are others behind this stone monument..."

Chu Yan's words stopped abruptly.

Lin Miaoran followed Chu Yan and noticed the change. She hurriedly took a step forward and stuck her head out.

Just one glance, and she was stunned.

"This...what is this..."

After a moment, Lin Miaoran came back to her senses and took a breath of cold air.

Chu Yan looked at what he saw in front of him, his eyes flashing: "I have learned a lot today."

Behind the stone tablet, in front of the two of them, where the chains gathered, there was another skeleton locked.

It's just that this skeleton and the previous image of him sitting high and high on a bone throne are really too miserable.

The hanging chains were nailed through its body, clasping its bones, shoulder blades, knees, etc., then placing it in a half-kneeling position, and finally twisting it into a single thread to fix it here.

This look makes it easy for people to suspect that when the bones were still alive, they were nailed here and drained of blood to death.

Then after an unknown number of years, its skin, flesh and internal organs weathered into ashes, and finally turned into this skeleton.

And even if he turned into a skeleton, he could not escape the fate of being trapped.

It's hard to imagine what kind of person would endure such torture.

At this time, Chu Yan's mind suddenly moved when he thought of the word "sin" on the stone tablet.

But at this moment, Lin Miaoran suddenly stepped closer to him and grabbed Chu Yan's arm tightly with both hands.

The power was so great that Chu Yan couldn't help but be surprised.

What surprised Chu Yan even more was that Lin Miaoran's body was actually trembling at this moment.

"Chu Yan...it..." Lin Miaoran took a breath and said in a trembling voice: "It's still alive..."

Chu Yan's eyes narrowed.

This skeleton had been huddled here for at least a thousand years, and he had never heard of a skeleton still alive.

Although the skeleton could move before, it still relied on those strange waxy things.

That's not coming back to life, it's just the will of the dead soul controlling it.

Chu Yan held Lin Miaoran's hand at this moment and looked at the skeleton trapped by the chains.

After a moment, he took a breath of cold air.

Lin Miaoran didn't lie.

This skeleton is really alive.

It's not the will of the dead soul that makes it move.
