Naturally, the dead skeleton would not reach out to touch him. Instead, he sent out an oil lamp to shine on the skull's head, and even slightly leaned over to shine a light on the skeleton's face.
Due to the steps, his standing position is higher than the hanging position of the skeleton.
Upon closer inspection, it can be found that the skeleton is indeed somewhat abnormal. There are many dense scratches on the bones. It is unknown what caused it. It does not seem to be man-made, but it is definitely not natural.
The skeleton didn't touch him, but he couldn't help but touch it. He tried to touch the skull's head with his fingers. He couldn't understand it with his eyes, so he wanted to feel what the fine scratches were with his hands.
Datou suddenly dodged and jumped onto the bone. Yu Qing caught him back. Is this something you can eat?
With this touch, the skeleton started to move.
It's shaking.
Yu Qing looked up and saw that the rope hanging the skeleton was also strange. To be precise, the place where the rope was hung was a bit strange. It turned out to be two interlocking rings. The shaking also came from that position, and it also made a weird friction sound of "Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong. .
His eyes returned to the skeleton. He could feel that it had not been too long since the corpse had turned into a skeleton, otherwise it would not have emitted the stench.
The stench comes more from the skeleton's clothes, probably because they are stained with blood, the smell of decayed blood.
Because of this, he was surprised, how could this corpse, which had not been dead for long, turn into such a clean skeleton?
Looking at the scratches on the bones, could it be that someone had scraped them clean?
How could someone do such a cruel and inhumane thing in the underground secret passage of Wen Mansion?
How could someone do such a thing in such a secret passage? Looking at the condition of the bones in the pit below, I'm afraid this place has existed for many years. If the head of the Wen family didn't know about it, he wouldn't believe it.
If he knew it and still let it happen, or maybe it was done by someone with knowledge of the matter, he was a little horrified when he thought about it. There was something so bad hidden behind the prosperity?
But the strange thing is, the bones are shaved clean, why are they still wearing clothes?
Can't you put some clothes on your skeleton after you've shaved it clean? I'm afraid only a pervert can do this.
There are also those piled up skeletons in the pit. It can be seen that most of them are wearing clothes. The difference is that the skull and torso are separated.
The skeleton hanging in front of me was confirmed by the oil lamp again. It seemed to be the clothes of Wen's servant. After careful inspection, it turned out that yes, it was still the clothes of the servant in Qingyi, but the color was changed due to blood staining.
So he squatted down and tried his best to let the oil lamp illuminate the clothes of the skeletons in the pit, and found that there were clothes of all kinds of men and women.
His eyes suddenly focused on the sleeves of a piece of clothing, which seemed to be embroidered with the symbol of a green lotus. He recognized it at a glance as belonging to some sect. After thinking about it for a moment, he was secretly surprised. Could it be the bones of a disciple of Qinglian Mountain? ?
There was a Qinglian Mountain disciple who died tragically in Wen's underground secret passage. What is going on in this ghost place?
He stood up again and looked at the hanging skeleton. He suddenly looked at his feet and felt a little strange. Judging from the matching height of the steps and the hanging rope, it felt like the steps under his feet were built to match the hanging rope.
Otherwise, the steps built at this location would be a bit awkward. This step feels like a ladder specially used for people to hang themselves.
The swaying sound of "Goo Chi Ko Chi" was still there, the skeleton was still swaying gently, and Yu Qing was surprised by the lubrication of the hanging ring on it.
Suddenly, there was a subtle, rustling sound, like grains of sand flowing.
After listening for a while, without deliberately using the firelight to illuminate it, I could already see it. A white shadow surged out from the bottom of the pit, quickly swarmed around, and climbed up the stone wall in a spreading manner.
what? Yu Qing, who was on high alert, sent out an oil lamp to take care of it, and found that there were actually a large number of ants, which looked a bit like spiders. They were pale white and slightly larger than mung beans. Following the ants that poured out, there was also a faint mist.
"Di di di di..."
At this time, Da Tou screamed again, startling Yu Qing again and hurriedly squeezed Yu Qing, but Da Tou just screamed.
Because of this reminder, Yu Qing felt that these ants must be unusual. Seeing the ants climbing up the steps, he quickly dodged back and fell to the ground.
I wanted to find out what was going on with these ants, but I was also worried that the big head's cries might attract someone, so I looked back from time to time.
Countless ants climbed up the wall, even climbed upside down to the top of the wall, gathered together on the hanging ring, crawled all the way down the hanging rope, swarmed up the hanging skeleton, and drilled into the holes of the skull and clothes. Drill inside.
Yu Qing suddenly understood why the fine scratches on the skeleton were all caused by the bites of these ants.
Being able to leave traces on the bones, the bite force of this ant is obviously extraordinary.
Click!
Maybe there were too many ants climbing on the skeleton, and the withered bones were overwhelmed by the weight. The neck bones were broken, and the head was smashed into the deep pit, which made him understand why the bones in the pit were all moved with their heads.
There were also a large number of ants spreading on the ground and walls, crawling towards him quickly.
The ants could make the big ones scream. Yu Qing couldn't figure out what was going on with these ants, so he didn't dare to provoke them easily and quickly retreated away.
Soon, the white shadows spreading from the ground, walls, and tops suddenly stopped advancing, and the ones stacked behind them also stopped at the same position, as if they were blocked by some invisible object.
what happened?
Yu Qing was stunned for a moment, suddenly thought of something, and slowly let go of his breath. Sure enough, he had retreated to the area where the fragrance was emitting.
This fragrance can actually stop these ants from spreading?
After thinking about it, it was not surprising. Those corpses were obviously eaten by these ants. Without the means to control these man-eating ants, how could they dare to keep them under the ground of homes where a large number of people live? If they crawled out, what would happen? Incredible.
Therefore, it can be absolutely confirmed that everything in front of you is deliberately man-made, and these man-eating ants are raised here.
Not long after the stalemate outside the area where the fragrance was emitted, the ants retreated like a tide, as if flowing back into the pit.
Seeing the light and filling fog, Yu Qing did not dare to stay in it for long.
I also feel that I have been down for a long enough time this time. When I go back to check the situation, I cannot grasp the external situation. It is not appropriate to be down for too long.
Then evacuated quickly.
On the way, I stopped by the secret passage leading to the family temple. I stood in the hole and peeped out again. I found that the light of the oil lamp outside had dimmed a lot. The futons behind the yellow curtain were piled up again. As for the naked Naturally, the men and women were also missing.
Thinking of that naked scene, Yu Qing's face turned red, his mouth and tongue went dry, and he felt restless in his body.
After confirming that no one was in the temple outside, he retreated and began to turn the rotating wall. After it was in place, there was a slight click and it got stuck again.
After resetting the scene, he quickly evacuated.
Pulling out the tags from the cracks in the wall all the way, and running back to the intersection leading to the utility room, he raised the light and shined a light on the tunnel that led to the outside world. He was curious and wanted to take a look, but then he thought about it. , or restrained his curiosity.
Anyway, I have plenty of time, so it’s not too late to come back next time.
After calming down, he quickly got back into the warehouse, extinguished the oil lamp and crawled back to the warehouse.
He silently held his breath and concentrated at the entrance of the cave for a while, confirming that there was no abnormal movement, then slowly closed the iron plate and slowly reset the bricks.
After finishing everything in the dark, I left the warehouse and tiptoed to the door. I touched the dead branches under the door. They were still there. It seemed like no one had been there. Then I safely removed the dead branches and gently inserted the door bolt. Then he quietly returned to his room.
After sitting down cross-legged on the couch, he sorted out the situation of entering the cave. Judging from the forks he found underground, the entrance and exit points he explored tonight were probably only one out of ten.
Thinking of the locked warehouse door, the waterway stacked with rocks, and the pit where people were hanged, I wonder how many secrets are hidden underground in Wen Mansion.
I wanted to sit cross-legged and meditate and continue practicing, but I found that it was difficult to calm down and there were always pictures in my mind.
It wasn't the scene of men and women having fun in the family temple, but Wen Xin's appearance turning over and over in his mind.
The more I think about it, the more confused I become, unable to concentrate on my practice, and I have no intention of sleeping even though I toss and turn.
Then he went out, moved a chair and sat in the yard, looking at the moonlight, sometimes smiling, sometimes sad, sometimes melancholy and sighing.
When the little Taoist priest came out of the mountain, he met for the first time a woman of a similar age, good-looking, and whom he felt he was compatible with in every aspect.
Just by the temperament, he felt it was really good. Even if he looked at it more, he would find it pleasing to the eye.
All in all, I feel like everything is good.
However, when he thought that she was already engaged, he couldn't help but scratch his heart.
For the first time in his life, he felt heartache because of an unfamiliar woman. Now he really wants to see who Wen Xin's fiancé is. Damn, he probably doesn't have much ability. He just has a better background than me. He dares to play with me. Pick?
Under the moonlight, Headmaster Yu sometimes covered his face with his hands, sometimes crossed his arms across his chest, and sometimes sighed. The murderous boy became so abnormal...
Jade Garden.
At dawn, Wen Xin got up early and squatted in front of the iron cage under the eaves.
The little guy in the cage would fall asleep when he was tired from all the tossing, and would wake up with his stomach growling and growl again.
The whole people in Yuyuan were almost going crazy because of it, and it was so noisy that people in Yuyuan couldn't sleep peacefully.
Night after night of noisy, Wen Xin got dark circles under his eyes, and Xiao Hong, who followed him and crouched down and yawned, became even more haggard.
The little guy who was screaming was already weak.
When he saw someone coming, he immediately lay down on his back and started fussing. His four short legs kept kicking up in the sky, tossing and rolling around, and threw himself on the cage to fuss. His head desperately tried to get out, but he couldn't get out. , actually nestled in the corner, sobbing and crying, the hair at the corners of his eyes getting wet from crying.
Ouch, the sad and tearful scene of the stuffed little guy almost broke Wen Xin's heart.
Really unable to stand it any longer, she said to Xiaohong: "Go and ask Sister Pingping to come."
Xiaohong went there immediately, and soon dragged the listless Song Pingping, who also lived in the Yuyuan, with disheveled hair.
"It's too much trouble. I won't raise it anymore. I'll kill it, stew it, and eat it." Song Pingping, who looked reluctant to come, muttered and complained.
Wen Xin stood up and discussed with her: "Sister Pingping, let's let it out."
Song Pingping suddenly became more awake and sighed: "My third lady, my master has said that now is the time for weaning. Just like a child, it will make trouble. You can't always rely on it. It will become a habit. If it doesn’t make trouble if it doesn’t want it, then what’s the point?”
Wen Xin grabbed her hand and said, "No, Sister Pingping, that's what I think. Every time it escapes and is found, it becomes better behaved. Is there any reason for it? Let's let it go and follow it to find out. Is the reason good?”
