Jin An's eyes flickered, and he jumped into the cellar of the ancestral hall again with the red umbrella girl Zhi Zha and A Ping.
He had discovered a long time ago that the underground extends in all directions, and perhaps the disappeared Chen family was hiding in these tunnels.
The underground passage was narrow and was not conducive to the flexible movement of Shiwu's body. Jin'an kept Shiwu on the ground and was responsible for protecting the safety of the seventeen human bone lanterns.
There are four passages under the cellar, each at the four corners of the southeast, northwest and northwest. At this time, the great gray fairy with a good nose comes in handy again.
Everyone was simmering with anger. Without any delay on the way, three people and one mouse walked into one of the passages.
This underground passage is just like the ground. No lighting can be brought in, so a few people walked forward in the dark.
The tunnel is darker and gloomier than the environment on the ground. It also carries a weird corpse smell from burning corpse oil that accumulates all year round, and a feeling of suffocation and lack of oxygen due to the lack of underground air circulation. All in all, the experience is not pleasant.
This darkness did not have much impact on the red umbrella girl Zhizhao and Aping. Jin An pressed his tongue on the dark side of the Five Emperors Coin and opened his Yin and Yang eyes, and his vision was slightly able to adapt to the dark environment. It was the thin air that made Jin An
I had to lower my breathing rate to maintain sufficient strength.
However, the consequence of this is that people in an oxygen-deprived environment can easily become sleepy and drowsy.
Jin An felt that his head was getting heavier and heavier as he walked, and his eyelids were as heavy as lead. He tried to cheer himself up several times, but soon he would feel sleepy again. He didn't know whether it was because the underground space was narrow and the air was thin, or because the tunnel itself was different.
Ordinary.
Just when Jin An's eyelids became heavy and he was drowsy, a woman's cry suddenly came to his ears. Jin An became alert and suddenly woke up.
"This cry seems to be coming from behind the corner in front?" Jin An, who had the Five Emperors copper coin under his tongue, said with difficulty in speaking and his speech was a bit unclear.
As a result, when he turned around, he found that the red umbrella girl Zhizharen and Aping, who had been walking with him, was no longer around.
There was no one around, not a single soul around.
He shouted several times, but no one responded. Only the sound of the woman crying from the front of the tunnel continued.
Jin An approached carefully, turned the corner, and saw the injured red umbrella girl Zhi Zharen leaning against the wall crying, and A Ping's black-backed iron knife fell on the ground.
"Taoist Master Jin'an saved me. Aping suddenly went crazy and wanted to kill me. What fell to the ground was the weapon he used to hurt me..."
puff!
Before the girl in red umbrella could finish pleading for help, Jin An picked up the black-backed iron knife on the ground. It was a sharp cold knife stained with blood. His movements were crisp and sharp, and he slashed hard without any hesitation. The light of the knife split the air.
.
quick.
allow.
ruthless.
The broad kitchen knife smeared a thin red line on the neck of the red umbrella girl. The red line gradually expanded, and a beautiful head fell backwards and fell to the ground with a bang.
"You dare to do anything in front of me with this little trick, and you have to pretend to be a girl in red." Jin An threw away the iron knife in his hand and snorted disdainfully.
The hallucination in front of me disappeared, and there was a headless corpse and an iron knife on the ground. The headless corpse was sitting against the wall. The wall behind it was stained with blood. There was blood from it during life and black corpse blood spurted out after its head was cut off.
.
Spread a large area of ​​black, red, and red on the wall, which is disgusting and smelly.
However, this headless corpse is not a person stuck in paper, but a young member of the Chen family wearing the clothes of the Chen family. The head that fell next to it looks familiar to Jin An. It is one of the young children who stayed in the ancestral hall not long ago.
One person. This person's fatal injury was a penetrating wound to his chest, his heart was lost, and he died of excessive blood loss.
In fact, the red umbrella girl Zhizha Ren and Aping were still standing with Jin An at this time and were not lost. It was just an illusion.
At this time, Aping looked at Jin An strangely: "Taoist Master Jin An, did you see the girl in red when you were blinded by a ghost just now?"
After saying that, A Ping looked at Jin An again with a strange look: "Taoist Master Jin An, your sword is quick, accurate and ruthless. It's not sloppy at all. You just kill the girl in red when you say it. It's true."
Without any hesitation, fortunately, Taoist Jin An, you didn't kill the wrong person, otherwise you would have turned into a girl in red and lie headless... Taoist Jin An, you didn't use Baijiayi to ask the gods to get on top, how did you see through it so quickly?
Hallucination?"
A Ping didn't say it was okay. The red umbrella girl who had been observing the corpses of the Chen family on the ground turned around and looked directly at Jin An. She could see why Jin An felt a chill on the back of his neck.
Jin An laughed and then talked about the experience just now.
But it was obvious that the girl in red umbrella was different from ordinary women. She was smart and smart and was not easy to fool. She still looked at Jin An calmly with her eyes.
Jin An coughed dryly, and seemed to be explaining to A Ping seriously, but in fact he was secretly telling someone around him: "All good-looking skins are the same, but in this world, there is a lot of beauty and inner beauty. She is as refined as the Kunlun Fairy, and the red-clothed woman is extremely talented and intelligent.
There is only one girl! Not to mention that men are so stunning when they see her. She doesn’t know the taste of meat in March. Even if she sees a goddess, she will feel inferior to her. How can a small blind trick be able to conjure up the unique temperament of the girl in red?
The girl's humiliation! How can I tolerate such a little devil tarnishing the Kunlun fairy-like image of the girl in red in my heart? I am so dissatisfied with this and swear to death!"
squeak!
Such explicit and disgusting words made even the little beast like Gray Fairy feel goosebumps. He quickly ran into the basket and continued to accompany the little girl. Human beings are too complicated, but these two little ones are the simplest and most innocent ones.
A Ping looked at Jin An with a shocked expression.
He must have this eloquence.
It can bring life to the dead.
Why worry that the bun shop run by the couple will be out of business!
Next, Jin An changed the topic and began to ask himself what happened just now. In fact, the whole thing was not complicated. Not long after the three people and one mouse went into the tunnel, they discovered the corpse of the Chen family in front of them. Of course,
At that time, the corpse had not been decapitated by Jin An. Just as the two of them were observing the corpse for clues, Jin An, who seemed to be possessed by an evil spirit, suddenly cut off the corpse's head with a knife, and finally mentioned Hong in a disdainful tone.
Girl in clothes...
Ahem.
Jin An knelt down and dropped the topic in the name of autopsy.
"This man's fatal injury was a penetrating wound to his chest. Judging from the traces of the wound, it appears that his chest was penetrated by human hands with great force."
"Even because of the huge disparity in strength between the two, he didn't even have a chance to resist, because there were no signs of a fight in the aisle."
"Not long after I entered the tunnel, I felt drowsy and mentally exhausted, and then I had hallucinations. It should be related to inhaling the corpse poison emitted by too many corpses in the closed and narrow space. Because the girl in red and
Aping does not need to breathe air and is immune to corpse qi, so he is not affected."
Seeing that no useful clues could be found on the corpse, the three of them continued to move forward.
After what happened just now, Jin An was awake all the way and no longer sleepy. After walking for a while, they entered a dead end.
Jin An trusted Hui Daxian's nose very much and believed that Hui Daxian would not smell wrong. Since he directed them to come here, it must mean that there is something going on here.
In the end, Jin An discovered the abnormality. He faintly smelled the unique smell of pickled bamboo shoots in the tunnel. Although the smell was very slight, he definitely smelled it. As he asked A Ping to use a knife to split open an earthen wall in front of him, he found that the wall was
There is a mezzanine at the back.
Behind the earthen wall is a cellar containing many fruits, vegetables and smoked meats. However, these stored foods are rotten and the surface is covered with thick dust, indicating that no one has touched these things for a long time, and the sour smell that was smelled before
The smell of bamboo shoots leaked from one of the clay pots.
There was a wooden ladder in the cellar that led all the way to the ground above. Just when the three of them were about to step up to the ladder, huh? With a surprise, they found some recent footprints on the ground, leading to the direction of the ladder.
Jin An was overjoyed: "The Gray Immortal has made another great contribution."
When the three came back to the ground, they found that it was a dark room without moonlight or candlelight. As soon as they came out, they all smelled the smell of blood.
There were two people lying motionless in a pool of blood on the ground. When they got closer, they discovered that they were the two veterans of Laughing Corpse Village who had left the backyard at the beginning. Both of them had bled to death, and their bodies were still warm, indicating that they had just died.
Died soon.
One of the corpses was still very familiar to Jin An. It was the fat old man Xikelti who always had a smile on his face and forced them to eat camel meat in the Laughing Corpse Village.
Seeing how it took several generations of people to finally find the Kingdom of the Immortal God after going through countless dangers and hardships, but ended up dying quietly and miserably in an unknown corner, Jin An suddenly felt a little sad. It was not that he pitied these veterans of Laughing Corpse Manor.
But there is some lamentation about the impermanence of life and death.
Suddenly!
The amulet Jin An wore on his chest felt faintly hot!
Just at this moment, Aping said alertly: "There are other people here! Be careful!"
The Yin energy did not come from the two dead bodies on the ground, but from this room.
In the end, it was the red umbrella girl Zhizhi who was sensitive to Yin energy and found the source of Yin energy. The Yin energy came from a human bone mirror hanging on the wall in the room with a round sky.
A human arm bone stretches out from the human bone mirror, grasping the four corners of the mirror respectively, and four skulls of old, weak, women and children are lying on the upper, lower, left and right sides respectively. The posture of these four skeletons is very strange, twisted at a strange angle.
Half of the skull is reflected in the mirror and the other half seems to be looking maliciously at the outside world.
To be continued...
