The three of them ran towards the other end. There were many big rocks on the other side of the bamboo forest, which could be used to hide.
As the black shadow in the distance gradually approached, everyone finally saw what it was!
The man who came to the never-drying well... was actually a headless man!
"I'll wipe...!"
Liu Chengfeng cursed silently, and his heart that had just calmed down suddenly tightened again!
How many filthy things are there in this village?
Although their first bloody door was in the underworld, there was only one ghost, and that ghost basically only came out at night to actively kill people.
But Qiyu Village is different. The place is simply full of ghosts, and ghosts can attack them unscrupulously during the day!
The three of them were so angry that they didn't dare to take a breath. They saw the headless man walking smoothly to the wellhead, picked up the wooden bucket next to the wellhead, and swung it towards the wellhead, and the barrel fell into the wellhead.
Then...it started to fetch water.
However, as the barrel was slowly lifted up by the headless corpse, it was not filled with water, but... a rotten head!
The corpse held the head in both hands and placed it on his neck. The dead fish eyes on the rotting head began to rotate, but soon, the headless corpse took the head off and put it aside. , continue to repeat the previous actions...
This weird scene lasted for half an hour.
Until the headless corpse seemed to sense something, it stopped fetching water... and headed back along the path it had just walked, leaving fourteen rotten human heads by the ancient well...
Behind the boulder, Liu Chengfeng slowly poked his head out and took a look:
"Holy shit...what's it going to do? Find its head?"
No one responded to it. Ning Qiushui leaned against the boulder, her eyes were lost in thought, and she murmured to herself:
"The compassionate one cuts off his head and gives peace..."
He vaguely seemed to have grasped something important.
But at this moment, Liu Chengfeng, who was probing his head, suddenly shouted in panic:
"Grass, look at these heads..."
Seeing that Liu Chengfeng was not in a good state, the two of them also glanced at the ancient well.
This glance made them feel cold from head to toe!
I saw the rotten heads next to the ancient well turned around at some point and looked directly at the hiding place of the three people. Their dead fish-like eyes emitted a faint green light, and there was a vicious smile on their face!
It's like the next moment, these heads will fly over and eat them alive!
"It's so cold down there... Come down and stay with us..."
"Come and stay with us..."
"Come with us...come..."
"Never separate..."
These heads made emotionless sounds from their mouths, reaching everyone's ears like a reminder!
"Hey, do we want to..."
Just when Liu Chengfeng asked in a trembling voice if they wanted to run away, he suddenly found that there was no one around him.
Liu Chengfeng turned around and saw Ning Qiushui and Bai Xiaoxiao running away ten meters away!
"Holy shit...!"
Liu Chengfeng was stupid.
He also acted like a fool and chased after the two of them!
"No, you two wait for me!"
"Run away without saying a word?"
"It's too much!"
The three of them ran for several hundred meters until a high platform appeared in front of them, and they finally stopped!
Liu Chengfeng rested his hands on a tree nearby, breathing heavily.
"You two are really... going too far!"
"At least say something when you run away!"
Ning Qiushui glanced at him and shook her head:
"Big Beard, be smarter next time. Why don't you just run away...waiting to die?"
Liu Chengfeng couldn't help but shudder as he recalled what happened just now.
"But what's going on with that headless corpse? Is it looking for...its own head?"
Ning Qiushui replied:
"It was wearing something like a monk's robe. Although it was stained with a lot of blood, it didn't have as much violence as other ghosts. It felt like... it was just looking for its own head."
Mentioning the monk's robe, both Bai and Liu thought of the 'compassionate person' on the Blood Gate prompt.
"Could it be...that it is the Merciful One?"
Ning Qiushui touched her chin:
"It should be."
"I just don't know if he took the initiative to cut off his own head...or if someone else cut off his head."
"Also, is the wooden sign you got from Jinggui still there?"
Liu Chengfeng nodded, took out the wooden sign and handed it to Ning Qiushui.
"Sister Bai said this thing is quite valuable, so I kept it."
Ning Qiushui held the wooden sign with the word 'Ruan' engraved on it in her hand, looked at the word 'Ruan' carefully, and suddenly asked inexplicably:
"You think...are the Ruan family kind people or compassionate people?"
The two looked at each other, neither of them answered Ning Qiushui.
They don't have answers either.
Ning Qiushui looked at it for a while and then put the wooden sign on her body.
"This thing is unlucky, bearded guy, I'll help you keep it first."
Liu Chengfeng shrugged.
"It doesn't matter, just take it if you want it."
After putting away the wooden sign, the three of them looked around and confirmed their current location through a wooden sign.
"We actually arrived at Fangcuntang?"
Liu Chengfeng muttered, and his eyes fell on the high platform in the distance.
It is said to be a high platform, but it is actually not high.
The vines covered the bluestones and coexisted with the black algae spreading out from the center of the pond, which looked very much like human hair.
There are nine steps of stone stairs, surrounded by many thick rusty chains.
On the uppermost central platform of the four-sided stone staircase, there is a square pond with an area of about four square meters.
This is Fangcuntang.
"Hey, little brother, Sister Bai, tell me... is there anything strange in the square pond above the stage?"
Liu Chengfeng seemed to have recovered from the fear just now, and he was no longer as scared as he was at the beginning.
Both shook their heads.
"Be careful, this place... feels bad!"
Bai Xiaoxiao's voice became more serious, and his face showed a rare solemnity.
The fine hairs on her back were cold.
Although there was nothing unusual around him, Bai Xiaoxiao felt that something was wrong around him.
In fact, Bai Xiaoxiao felt cold all over as soon as he entered this place.
She rarely felt like this.
"Grass……!"
Ning Qiushui and Bai Xiaoxiao searched everywhere for the annotation, but they couldn't find it after searching for a long time. Instead, Liu Chengfeng suddenly let out a strange cry.
They followed the sound and found that Liu Chengfeng had an ugly face and was staring at the black algae on the ground with doubts in his eyes.
"Big Beard, what's wrong?"
Liu Chengfeng hesitated and said:
"Just now, I saw these black algae on the ground... seemed to be squirming."
"Maybe I saw it wrong..."
Before he finished speaking, the three of them heard the sound of water surging from the square pond on the high platform, as if... it was boiling!
