Chapter 460 Breaking Through the Secret Realm 7
Excited roars came and went, at this time, no matter the old, the weak, or the young, they all seemed to be possessed by divine power, with infinite power. They wished they could vent all their strength at this moment. That kind of stimulation and excitement made everyone Their eyes were red and their breathing was heavy.Excited onlookers rushed into the ancestral hall like a tidal wave at some point, kicking and hammering, blood and finely minced flesh splashed across everyone, but they were all in a daze. If you don't feel normal, rush to join...
The meandering blood slowly soaked the ground of the ancestral hall, and amidst the lightning and thunder, the roar of excitement never stopped.
Suddenly, the surroundings became quiet.
Yes, quiet, except for the sound in the ancestral hall, there is no other sound around.
Jiang Shuzhi recovered from the bewildered absence, he was suddenly startled and looked beside him, only to see Liu Yelan's expression was extremely ugly.
But Jiang Shuzhi didn't know when, the lightning, thunder, and thunder disappeared, and there was an excited roar that was not like a human voice, and an endless stream of blood-colored mist gushed out from the Shen's ancestral hall, but in the blink of an eye, everything around him was annihilated. , so that people can not tell any direction.
The mist came too strangely and suddenly, with a very strange crimson color, but there were countless fishy smells in it, as if countless dead fish and shrimps were behind the mist.
At this moment, Jiang Shuzhi, his attendants, government servants and others all looked terrified at this moment. They looked towards the direction where the fog was thickest, roaring excitedly accompanied by dull beating sounds. Everything around them seemed very ominous. The blood-colored thick fog, the entire Shen's ancestral hall seemed to have been swallowed by the blood fog.
All of this looks so terrifying, as if they are no longer in Xitu Town, but have been moved to a certain place in the legendary hell. The legends of gods and ghosts that were originally mentioned as jokes emerged in everyone's minds at this moment , those roars of excitement and the muffled sound of beating flesh and blood caused all sane people to be terrified. Those who make such sounds... can they still be considered "human"?Perhaps, those in Shen's ancestral hall were already a group of monsters who had lost their minds.
Just now, if Liu Yelan hadn't pulled all of them away hastily, would they have turned into such terrifying monsters like those excited guests?
In this terrified atmosphere, Liu Yelan only heard each word: "Everyone, hold hands and don't be separated! Follow me!"
Jiang Shuzhi took a deep breath, lowered his voice as if he was afraid of alarming the group of monsters who were no longer "human" behind him, and said, "Quick!" Then he had an idea: "Take off the hoods and tie them on each other's wrists, never Lost!"
Liu Yelan returned an appreciative look, and then, regardless of the blood behind him, Liu Yelan groped for the way in the Shen family's old house with a solemn expression. They gradually stepped into the bloody fog, and the excited roars behind them Gradually, it seemed to disappear, and there was a dead silence around.
And the more they walked into this mist, the colder Jiang Shuzhi's heart became. They had all witnessed the size of Shen's ancestral hall, so how could it be possible to walk for a long time without touching the wall?Are they...really still in Shen's Ancestral Hall?Are you still in Xitu Town?
Thinking of the blood-stained water-respecting shirt on the ground just now, for some reason, Jiang Shuzhi felt another layer of fear in his heart.
Suddenly, Liu Yelan paused.
Uncle Jiang asked anxiously: "What?" Everyone behind him held their breath and looked at Liu Yelan intently. At this moment, in such a frightening and strange situation, the calm Liu Yelan had become their only hope.
Liu Yelan focused her ears: "Listen."
Jiang Shuzhi and the others paid attention, vaguely, it seemed that there was really a low whistling sound lingering not far away.
Liu Yelan nodded and said, "Let's go."
Then he moved towards the howling sound.
Under such a situation, Jiang Shuzhi hesitated anxiously and said, "This..."
Everything that happened now has exceeded everyone's imagination. No one knows whether the whistling sound is a devil or a ghost, good or bad, but Liu Yelan can so easily determine it?
Liu Yelan glanced at Jiang Shuzhi, and said calmly, "The fog is lighter over there."
Uncle Jiang was startled, and then he looked around, feeling a little ashamed, he was frightened by the gloomy atmosphere around him just now, so he lost his mind, he couldn't even understand such a simple situation, and even questioned Liu Yelan's choice, It was... so embarrassing for him.
Liu Yelan paused, then said in a low voice: "Third Brother, I'm a little worried about Young Brother."
Uncle Jiang's expression changed: "What?"
Liu Yelan shook his head and didn't say any more, but simply said: "In short, we should find a way out as soon as possible."
They were trapped in this weird blood-colored mist, not to mention that Shen's ancestral hall was the source of the weirdness. After traveling for so long, they couldn't be sure whether they were still in Xitu Town, so what about the people in Xitu Town?
Tong Qing trekked all the way and was already unwell and rested at the place where she stayed. If she really encountered the same weird thing as them, how would Tong Qing deal with it?Furthermore, if Tong Qing's luck is even worse, what he encounters is not just such a thing, but a bad situation...
Jiang Shuzhi didn't dare to think about it anymore, he just followed Liu Yelan's firm and quick steps.
The low whistling sound fluctuated, but it always pointed out a direction in this bloody mist. Gradually, the whistling sound became clearer and clearer. Liu Yelan stood still, looked at the figure not far away, and bowed his hands Said: "Young Master Shen."
Jiang Shuzhi also stopped and looked in surprise at the source of the howling sound - Shen Tianyun.
Just now it was clear that Shen Tianyun was standing in the center of the Shen family's ancestral hall. Logically speaking, the blood-colored thick fog had engulfed the entire ancestral hall. Those members of the Shen family and the guests in the ancestral hall all fell into a terrifying state of madness. How do you look at this Shen Tianyun? But when he appeared here, even seeing that he was neatly dressed, he obviously hadn't touched anything, his expression was sober, and he didn't have the slightest influence from the Shen's ancestral hall.
Hearing Liu Yelan's greeting, Shen Tianyun also paused, and returned a salute to Liu and Jiang.
It's strange to say that since meeting Shen Tianyun, the faint whistling sound has disappeared instead, and Jiang Shuzhi couldn't help but have many speculations in his heart.
Liu Yelan said: "Young Master Shen, the situation is so weird now, and the road ahead is unpredictable, I wonder if you can take me with you."
Shen Tianyun frowned, Jiang Shuzhi also felt weird, Shen Tianyun and them were just acquaintances for the first time, and everyone was lost in this weird mist, why Liu Yelan's tone seemed to ask Shen Tianyun to help them out?
What's even more weird is that Shen Tianyun was silent for a while and actually said: "But I have to find the clumsy thorn first."
Liu Yelan was even more surprised, she nodded and said: "Okay, let's find Mrs. Zun first."
Jiang Shuzhi and the others were all at a loss when they heard the two people's conversation, they didn't know what mechanism Liu Yelan was using.
Immediately, they heard a crisp low whistle, and then Shen Tianyun stepped forward without looking back, and Liu Yelan followed behind him without any hesitation, Jiang Shuzhi couldn't help but feel too shocked, could it be that the voice actually Did it really come from Shen Tianyun?But it was too strange, the voice seemed to have a direction, guiding Shen Tianyun to move forward step by step, I don't know if it was his illusion, but wherever Shen Tianyun's steps went, the blood-colored thick fog did lighten a little.
Uncle Jiang couldn't help but asked Liu Yelan in a low voice: "What's going on here?!"
Liu Yelan glanced at Shen Tianyun's back in front of him, and explained: "In ancient times, there was a divine sword called 'Evil Exorcising'. It is rumored that wherever this sword goes, it will ward off evil spirits and make strange noises..."
Jiang Shuzhi couldn't help looking at the long sword in Shen Tianyun's hand. Liu Yelan didn't say that he didn't feel it yet, but when Liu Yelan mentioned it, he really felt that the sound came from the sword, and when he looked at the sword carefully, it was ordinary. Not even the swords sold in the blacksmith shop in Anping County have any radiance on them. They are as ordinary as an old sword that has been used for too long and has lost its brilliance. I did not expect such a big origin.
Shen Tianyun in front of him paused, and turned around to take a deep look at Liu Yelan: "Dare to ask this young master's name, Bowen can remember it, but Shen admires it."
When we met before, the patriarch Shen only introduced Jiang Shuzhi and Shen Tianyun. After all, Jiang Shuzhi had different identities and represented the Jiang family, while Liu Yelan looked like a group of friends with Jiang Shuzhi. The scene was hurried, and Shen Tianyun didn't know Liu Yelan's name .
"Under Liu Yelan, an idler in the country, Mr. Shen praised you absurdly." Liu Yelan replied with neither humble nor overbearing expression.
Shen Tianyun smiled and said: "It's not necessarily absurd praise. In today's world, the avenues of the heavens have long become the theory of gods and ghosts. Brother Liu can still recognize this 'exorcism' under such circumstances, which shows that he has a good vision, and the future will definitely be different." Mediocre people."
These words are a bit of a commentary, originally it should be condescending to make people uncomfortable, but Shen Tianyun smiled openly, walking side by side with Liu Yelan and Jiang Shuzhi at this time, showing a more heroic and vigorous appearance, which really made Jiang Shuzhi feel disgusted , At the same time, he was also surprised by Liu Yelan's judgment. Could it be that Liu Yelan guessed that there was an evil sword here just after hearing the whistling sound from a distance?
Liu Yelan glanced at the surprised Jiang Shuzhi, and said helplessly: "There is nothing wrong with the countryside, I just like to read a few more casual books and gossip. I was in the Shen's ancestral hall just now, and when I glanced from a distance, Brother Shen, the long sword in your hand is called I thought it looked familiar, so I chased after him, I’m sorry.”
Shen Tianyun smiled sassyly: "Since Brother Liu can recognize this sword, it is destined, why bother to stick to this mundane etiquette. I don't know what is going on in front of me, what advice does Brother Liu have?"
Liu Yelan glanced at Jiang Shuzhi, and the two of them exchanged a look, and they reached a consensus: I'm afraid I have to tell Shen Tianyun the cause and effect of the investigation.
Firstly, they could see the water-respecting shirt in the mad woman's hand just now, and if they expected it right, the strange and sinister blood mist in front of them might be inseparably related to the extermination of Zhang and Wang's families; secondly, Since Shen Tianyun was able to recognize the master of such an ancient divine sword as Pixie, he would not be an evil person, so he could be trusted; thirdly, Shen Tianyun must have superb martial power with his hand holding Pixie. It would also be in their interest to inform him of the cause and effect.
Then, after hearing about the affairs of Zhang Wang's family and the clues they found in Xitu Town, Shen Tianyun fell silent amidst the roar of swords, and after a while he sneered and said, "I'm afraid that my clansmen haven't found this town. told you many things."
Jiang Shuzhi frowned and said, "Brother Shen, what do you mean?"
Shen Tianyun said indifferently: "Although Xitu Town is also under the rule of your father, Xitu must have been located in a remote place for many years, and has never had much contact with the outside world. Your father only feels that this place is safe and peaceful under the rule of Shen, and there is nothing to do. Pay attention."
Jiang Shuzhi couldn't help showing embarrassment, Shen Tianyun's words were tactful, but his tone was straightforward: the order of a county, the land under its jurisdiction, whether it is big or small, a place like Xitu Town, there are no more, no less, and three. There are more than ten of them. Jiang Heng, as the county magistrate, naturally cannot spend a lot of energy everywhere. Among these many towns, there are some places that are more complicated than Xitu, some that are poorer than Xitu, and some that are easier to produce talents than Xitu. In short, in the eyes of a qualified county magistrate, a place like Xitu is remote and has little production, and there is no bad thing that needs to be taken care of so that it does not go wrong. It can be said that everything is inconspicuous everywhere, even if Jiang Heng is He is a good county magistrate, and it is difficult to pay too much attention.
It can be said that if it hadn’t been for the fact that Zhang Wang’s extermination of the two clans had not happened in the county town and had followed the clues to find this place, even Jiang Shuzhi, who likes to travel around the most, would not have set foot in Xitu Town, a remote village with no characteristics. .
Therefore, Jiang Shuzhi couldn't refute what Shen Tianyun said.
But he also felt aggrieved, even though he paid less attention, it was not his father's fault!
Liu Yelan said: "According to brother Shen's words, is there anything special about this stream in the land under the jurisdiction of County Magistrate Jiang?"
Shen Tianyun said indifferently: "Aren't you investigating the case of Zhang Wang's extermination? In this town of Xitu, such things happen every year."
Jiang Shuzhi's eyes widened, how could it be possible?This is simply appalling!There are extermination cases every year? !How could this town of Xitu hide it? !
Shen Tianyun looked at Jiang Shuzhi's expression and sneered, "Don't worry, I won't be so disrespectful, it's not about exterminating the family, it's just about killing a few people inexplicably."
There was an indescribable sarcasm in that expression, but in the depths of his eyes, there was an indescribable coldness.
Liu Yelan's heart moved, and he couldn't help looking at Shen Tianyun, thinking twice, but finally he only asked: "Oh? There are at least a few hundred families in Xitu Town. No matter where it is, birth, old age, sickness and death are as unstoppable as the cycle of the four seasons. A few dead families...doesn't seem like a big deal?"
Shen Tianyun looked at Liu Yelan with an unpredictable expression: "Brother Liu, since you are investigating the case of exterminating the family, don't you know the weirdness in it?"
Liu Yelan was silent.
The door is closed, and there is no trace of entry.
The deceased looked terrified, but there was no scar around him, and there was no trace of poison on his body.
Then what kind of secret poison used in the small tribe in ancient times could cause such an effect... It was just something he said to comfort people's hearts. In fact, until now, Liu Yelan didn't know the exact cause of death of those people.The implication of Shen Tianyun's words is that every year people in Xitu Town will die like this?But why has no one reported it to Anping County?What is the reason for this?
The mystery of Xitu Town is becoming more and more puzzling.
After thinking about it a few times, Liu Yelan couldn't help asking: "Then what will happen to the people in Shen's ancestral hall?"
Shen Tianyun said indifferently: "I don't know."
The expressions of Liu Yelan and Jiang Shuzhi couldn't help being a little weird. The death of dozens of members of the Zhang and Wang clans was so strange that they seemed to be right in front of them. Could it be that the Shen clan's ancestral hall also...
Shen Tianyun said again: "I really don't know, maybe they will wake up like a big dream and continue to live their lives in Xitu Town, day after day, maybe they will die inexplicably like in the past A few, maybe . . . none left, who knows."
This last sentence caused Liu Yelan and Jiang Shuzhi to shiver involuntarily.
Looking at the expressions of the two of them, Shen Tianyun couldn't help but sneered and said: "Everyone, good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and what you sow will reap what you reaped. Although it is just nonsense in the ghost story book, it is not completely unreasonable." of."
Jiang Shuzhi couldn't help but said: "Brother Shen, you seem to be very clear about many of these things, can you solve the doubts for the two of us? After all, so many lives are involved..."
Shen Tianyun was silent for a while and said: "Didn't you just say that the county has announced the case and pushed everything to the three horses? The result has already been reached, so why bother to say anything more?" Then he said vaguely: "Some things, the less you know, the better."
Liu Yelan frowned and came again.
The old woman surnamed Dou was like this before, she knew the origin of the Jingshui shirt, but she was terrified and unwilling to tell it, and now Shen Tianyun is the same, she clearly knows something, although she lacks the frightened expression, but judging by his appearance, she is not afraid. I am willing to say more, and even have a sense of "it is for your own good to hide from you".
Liu Yelan took a deep breath and decided to find the truth by himself, he only said: "Brother Shen, some of our companions are also in Xitu Town, in this thick fog, is it possible to find them?"
Shen Tianyun couldn't help frowning at this time, let alone Liu Yelan was thinking about Tong Qing, he was also thinking about his newly married wife at this time, but he still couldn't tell the direction in this thick fog, he was about to say something when suddenly a sharp long When the howl sounded, Shen Tianyun suddenly changed his color, protected Liu Jiang and the others behind him, and flew forward with the evil sword in his hand.
In the next moment, Liu Yelan and Jiang Shuzhi saw something that they couldn't believe. It was a bloody thing, which could only be described as a thing, because the thing was bloody and bloody, dripping blood continuously. I really couldn't see anything, but there was an overwhelming disgusting smell, even though they lost their sense of smell due to the stench in the fog, they still felt that life would be better than death under this smell ! ,
This kind of monster, not to mention fighting with it like Shen Tianyun, ordinary people just look at it more, and after a while, they will immediately fall down. Jiang Shuzhi directly fell to the side. At this time, he has completely believed that the ghosts and gods in this world It is not false to say, otherwise how can explain all the monsters they encountered today!
This thing was a mass of blood and flesh, but it was menacing. It kept rushing towards Shen Tianyun, as if it would swallow up Shen Tianyun's belt and bones at any time, which made people shudder.
Jiang Shuzhi tried his best to look in that direction, only to see that Shen Tianyun was so powerful, the evil spirit sword in his hand shone brightly, causing the monster to let out a horrific scream, spilled a pool of blood, and suffered heavy injuries!
What Jiang Shuzhi admired even more was Liu Yelan. This guy was obviously just like him, an ordinary person, and even weaker than himself in force, but he was so brave and fearless. In the fierce and inseparable fight, Jiang Shuzhi looked at Liu Yelan's figure and couldn't help but feel terrified. He had a premonition that if something happened to this guy here, his cousin would definitely not forgive him.
He hurriedly covered his mouth and nose, and took the risk to step forward to pull Liu Yelan away, but he saw that in the current battle situation, even Shen Tianyun was gradually defeated by the roar of the group of monsters , this monster is actually getting more and more ferocious amidst the ferocious roar!
Jiang Shuzhi felt terrified, pulled Liu Yelan and shouted: "Aren't you afraid of death?!"
At this moment, he only had one thought in his mind, where to run with Liu Yelan, if Shen Tianyun was defeated, escaped, or died, what would they do to escape from this monster!
All of a sudden, the billowing blood mist became more aggressive, as if there were countless undiscovered dangers hidden in it.
But suddenly he only heard Liu Yelan yelling: "I see!"
Jiang Shuzhi really wanted to split open Liu Yelan's brain and see what was inside!You knew already!You know shit!This is a life and death situation, what do you know!
If it wasn't for the fact that this guy has such a good relationship with Tong Qing, Jiang Shuzhi would like to kick this guy directly to the monster's mouth right now!
But Liu Yelan suddenly pushed Jiang Shuzhi away, and said straight to Shen Tianyun who was retreating under the monster's hands: "Brother Shen, seize the opportunity!!!"
Jiang Shuzhi was really confused at this moment, he came to hide Liu Yelan from danger, what does this scholar mean?Why did you push yourself away instead?What else did you say to Shen Tianyun?
Liu Yelan suddenly yelled at the monster: "Zhuer!!!"
Jiang Shuzhi and his followers really wanted to tie up Liu Yelan and beat him up.
You call a girl's name to a monster, even your beloved girl can't save you!
However, in the next moment, the monster really seemed to be frozen in place by the shout, and stayed in place.
Liu Yelan's expression was full of determination: "Pearl, tell me, how did you die?"
The monster suddenly let out an unprecedented sharp roar, and the stern and murderous aura in it made everyone in the field tremble even with the evil spirit sword.
Jiang Shuzhi's mind was blank at this moment, he just thought: If I had known, when my cousin begged him to take them into Wang's haunted house, he should have broken his cousin's leg, and then strangled Liu Yelan to death, the world would inevitably be destroyed. Much cleaner.It's not like now... Does this scholar know what the hell he's doing?! ! !He's so frightened that he wants to go to the bathroom, okay? ! ! ! !Does this scholar know that it is a monster that eats people, not the kitten next door who teases and scratches your paw the most! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
At this moment, not only Jiang Shuzhi, but even Shen Tianyun's heart was a little broken.
He imagined that maybe a guy like Liu Yelan who knows the evil sword would come up with some tricks to cooperate with him, but he didn't expect that it would be such a horrifying trick. Seeing the horror that spurted blood all over his body, the blood mist around him was like a mountain torrent. The tumbling monster broke out, Shen Tianyun squeezed the trembling evil sword in his hand, stood beside Liu Yelan, and said with certainty: "If it becomes stronger again, I will hide behind you."
Liu Yelan: ...
Why does everyone have no confidence in him?
But at this moment, he and the monster stared fixedly at each other, and could no longer pay attention to his unreliable companions.
Then, Liu Yelan calmly said: "You have been wronged."
Winding blood flowed out from the two holes in the lump of flesh and blood, and then, they heard indistinct words: "...No... Steal... No... No... Steal..."
Liu Yelan thought about it and guessed, "You were wrongfully stolen?"
The meandering blood water gradually gathered on the ground into a blood spring, the bloody monster squirmed, and the voice became more and more sharp: "...No!...No!...No stealing!..."
This horrific sight terrified everyone, for fear that the monster would explode again and turn them all into identical monsters.
Jiang Shuzhi followed Liu Yelan's words, and suddenly said "ah": "I know who Zhu'er is now! That maid of the Wang family! The one with Ma San's childhood sweetheart!"
The monster fell silent suddenly, and murmured repeatedly: "Ma San...Ma San...brother..."
Although the scene in front of me is weird and dangerous, for some reason, everyone feels sore and sad in their hearts. Even though they died unjustly and turned into a monster without sanity, they only remember the wrongs and injustices they suffered, but there are still one or two The name, I still can't forget it.
Even Jiang Shuzhi was silent at this time.
But Liu Yelan said to Shen Tianyun beside him: "Brother Shen, get ready!"
Shen Tianyun clenched the Evil Resisting Sword tightly, his toes were already accumulating energy, but he heard Liu Yelan say to the monster word by word: "Ma San is already dead."
The monster stood still for a moment, as if it had turned into a stone. In the next moment, the stone erupted like a mudslide. The turbulent blood mist and countless flesh and blood crazily came towards Liu Yelan. Liu Yelan was torn into tens of thousands of pieces, Jiang Shuzhi's eyes widened, he wanted to step forward and pull Liu Yelan away, but it was too late, too late, as Liu Yelan was about to die here, a clear sound resounded throughout the world When the chime sounded, it was like a long wind breaking through the waves, and a thunderbolt fell from the sky. The turbulent blood mist frenzy was split into two, and the flesh and blood whirlwind was also cut from it, and everything around returned to silence.
Jiang Shuzhi stared dumbfounded at the blood and flesh spewing out to both sides with Liu Yelan as the center line, and then sincerely said to Shen Tianyun who retracted his sword and fell to the ground: "Brother Shen, you must be my invincible general in the next year."
With this kind of force, it is unreasonable not to be a general.
And Shen Tianyun only smiled calmly: "It's also thanks to Brother Liu for distracting it's attention, otherwise this monster has a strange aura, and the evil spirit sword would not want to confront it head-on."
Liu Yelan was lost in thought while looking at a red gold object at his feet.
When Jiang Shuzhi saw that thing, he suddenly understood why Liu Yelan could call out the monster's name. There was also such a thing on top of Ma San's body. The two things were in pairs, and it seemed to be a token of love.
Liu Yelan looked up at the heavy fog of blood: "It seems that the Wang family did something shameful back then, Zhu'er was beaten, killed and pushed into the river after being wronged by them for stealing something. I'm afraid it was to kill people and silence her." ?”
The entourage behind them had gone through so many strange incidents, and I don't know if they had the courage to practice, and they asked aloud: "How do you know that they were killed and pushed into the river?"
Liu Yelan said calmly, "Otherwise, there is no way to explain why it stinks so much."
"Ouch~" "Ooh~" There was a sound of vomiting behind me, I really don't blame them, thinking that Zhu'er was beaten to a bloody mess and then pushed into the river... Thinking of the shape just now, it's really hard not to vomit .
Jiang Shuzhi got caught up in the case at this time, but calmed down: "According to what we found at the time, this Pearl should be the maid of Wang's eldest house, and seems to be the dowry maid of the wife of the eldest house. In this small town, Those who can make slaves and maidservants are rare, and the Wang family is considered to be doing a good job in business. The wife who marries in the door can also have a maid as a dowry. unless the matter to be covered up is too vicious and has to be done."
Liu Yelan nodded, agreeing with Jiang Shuzhi's judgment.
Jiang Shuzhi thought for a while, and suddenly thought: "Since this Zhu'er is a dowry maid, she is the eldest son, but she has a relationship with Ma San. Could it be that the eldest son of the Wang family is jealous..."
Liu Yelan gave him a supercilious look: "If that prince really wants to accept Zhu'er, just ask him directly, will his wife still refuse?"
Jiang Shuzhi chuckled: "It's hard to say, maybe his wife doesn't like him taking concubines, so she did it?"
Liu Yelan shook his head: "Even so, driving this girl out of the house, or selling her secretly, even if it is to be dealt with thoroughly, the method of killing people will not be so cruel, and after she dies, she will push her body into the river. Think about it again." After Zhu'er's death, the Wang family moved to the county, and then the family was wiped out... There must be other secrets in it."
Jiang Shuzhi frowned and smiled wryly: "Forget it, this kind of thing is really not my strong point, thinking about it makes my head hurt, alas, it would be nice if I had wine with me."
Shen Tianyun laughed out loud when he heard that, they were trapped in this blood mist at this moment, Jiang Shuzhi was still thinking of drinking, he was considered a strange person.
But Liu Yelan had an even worse speculation in his heart. Zhu'er died of injustice, but in the end she became such a monster and hid in the blood mist. Then, according to what Shen Tianyun said, people in this town die every year for no reason. , How many died unjustly, and how many turned into monsters and hid behind this blood mist?Then in Shen's ancestral hall... how many monsters were born?Will there be any living people?
But even though he felt that everything around him was getting more and more treacherous, Liu Yelan secretly felt that they were getting closer and closer to the truth. There might be a huge secret hidden in the whole Xitu Town. Hypnosis has been forgotten, but an insider like Shen Tianyun Dou is unwilling to mention the big secret.
I don't know if it was because of killing the monster, but when the Evil Resisting Sword resounded, the sound was much clearer. Looking at it, Jiang Shuzhi felt that the sword seemed to be brighter than before, and Liu Yelan couldn't help but come out. He praised: "Evil energy is washed away, it really is an ancient sword."
Shen Tianyun also lowered his head to look at his saber, raised his eyebrows and smiled, suddenly his smile faded, and his expression became a little anxious: "Quick! This way!"
Bixie Qingyue's buzzing seemed to be reminding the master of something important. Seeing Shen Tianyun's expression, Liu Yelan and Jiang Shuzhi naturally didn't bother to ask more questions. They only tried their best to catch up with Shen Tianyun's pace while ensuring that no one around them was left behind. , but the two of them were not surprised that Shen Tianyun, who hadn't changed his face against the blood monster just now, would show such anxiety, what happened?
When they saw the portal in front of them clearly, they all exclaimed in unison.
The gate in front of him is tall and lacquered, even if it cannot be compared with those of the great families, it is still quite grand, and with the decorations on the gate, it looks like a joyous scene, on the gate it is impressively written: "Shen's Mansion".
Liu Yelan and Jiang Shuzhi looked at each other with a bit of shock, this is clearly the Shen's mansion they visited earlier!
But they just came out of Shen's ancestral hall and walked for a long time in the blood mist before arriving here. The ancestral hall is obviously in the mansion!
All this is already so weird that it is difficult to explain it with common sense, Jiang Shuzhi stepped forward and grabbed Shen Tianyun: "Brother Shen! Be careful!!!"
The portal in front of me seemed to still have the warmth left by the excitement and joy, but the surrounding area was quiet.Who knows what will happen if you step into the portal that suddenly appeared in this blood mist.
Although Jiang Shuzhi believed in Shen Tianyun's skill, but everything in front of him was extraordinary, and he and Shen Tianyun just had a life-and-death battle, he didn't want to see Shen Tianyun make any impulsive decision that he would regret in the future.
Shen Tianyun paused for a moment, then calmed down and said: "The clumsy thorn is inside!"
Jiang Shuzhi's eyes are clear, no wonder Shen Tianyun suddenly lost his composure, it's inevitable that something involving a loved one will make people lose their minds, but he still reminded: "The appearance of this portal is too weird, brother Shen still needs to be careful."
Shen Tianyun nodded solemnly, and the Evil Resisting Sword in his hand uttered a clear and long cry, as if in response to the master's state of mind, but Liu Yelan stretched out his hand and pushed the door open, turned to Shen Tianyun and said: "Brother Shen, let me go in first, and if What's wrong with me, I have a close friend named Tong Qing, please take care of me, brother Shen."
Jiang Shuzhi was again shocked by today's Liu Yelan, even with Shen Tianyun's ability, he persuaded him to be more cautious, but a scholar like Liu Yelan went to explore the way? ? ? ! ! !
Without waiting for Jiang Shuzhi to say anything, Liu Yelan said first: "Third Brother, don't say any more, I am the most suitable person."
Shen Tianyun was in a state of confusion at this time, and his judgment was the most unsteady, and Jiang Shuzhi seldom dabbled in such weird things. Liu Yelan didn't feel that his decision was wrong. Yue, since everything happened in Shen's house, there must be a reason for them to come back to the gate of Shen's house, it is most appropriate for him to go in and have a look.Furthermore... among many of them, only he, Liu Yelan, had no worries and no relatives, so naturally he should go.
Before Shen Tianyun could say anything to Jiang Shuzhi, Liu Yelan had already opened the door and entered, and then he was surprised to see another person.
The pale Tong Qing seemed to be struggling even to stand, but she was staring at the old woman in front of her with a bad expression.
Liu Yelan blurted out almost immediately: "Brother Qing!"
But Tong Qing didn't seem to see him, her expression remained unchanged.
A fine layer of sweat broke out on Liu Yelan's forehead. Just now he said that Shen Tianyun's concern is chaotic, and so is he. From Qing's perspective, Tong Qing should be resting at the place where she was staying at this time, so how could she appear in the lobby of Shen's house?All of this is obviously unreasonable, but Liu Yelan is still very sure that this is Tong Qing.
Along the way, they had been together for such a long time that they almost never separated. Only then did Liu Yelan realize that he had remembered so many small things about Tong Qing, including the tiny mole under the earlobe, which was displeased. From time to time, the corners of the mouth are pursed, and even the way the clothes are dressed loosely and intentionally loose, you can outline them in your mind without looking at them with your eyes.
Liu Yelan subconsciously didn't think about why this was so, he just looked at the scene intently, the situation was too weird, not only Tong Qing, Shen Tianyun's wife, but also the Dou family was there.Looking at the crowded but tense hall, it seemed that everyone in Xitu Town was already here except for the men in the ancestral hall.
In the next moment, Liu Yelan suddenly realized that this is not impossible!
The people Shen's grand banquet hosted must be all the people who have acquaintances in the entire Xitu Town. What's the surprise that most of Xitu Town is included?Dou Shi is naturally also likely to be invited.Just now Shen Yingshi hastily left the ancestral hall to avoid the male guests, so why is it impossible to be with these people?As a newlywed, she naturally had to socialize with the women of the clan in the town.As for Tong Qing...if the blood mist descends, the place where they are staying will also be shrouded, Tong Qing drags his sick body to find the Shen family's courtyard in the thick fog... He and Jiang Shuzhi come to Shen's mansion, as long as Tong Qing asks his entourage, he will be able to He knew that he was worried about Tong Qing about such a weird blood mist, so how could Tong Qing not be worried?Will you come?
Looking at Tong Qing's pale face, Liu Yelan couldn't tell what mood he was in for a while.
But there are so many people in Shen's house, none of them saw him walking in, everyone was arguing fiercely about something, there were mostly women and children in the room, and from time to time someone was seen sobbing and covering their faces, making a commotion, but Liu Yelan couldn't hear it at all Hearing the sound, he couldn't tell what was going on at all.
Liu Yelan couldn't help but walked towards Tong Qing, but was surprised to find that no matter how he took steps, he couldn't get close to Tong Qing, as if there was an invisible wall between him and Tong Qing.
This situation made Liu Yelan stop involuntarily. He took a deep look at Tong Qing, turned his head and was about to walk out, and then found that there was a vast mist of blood behind him, and he didn't know where he would go when he walked in. Liu Yelan took a deep breath, then simply sat down cross-legged, pressed his forehead and thought about everything in front of him, waiting for Shen Tianyun and Jiang Shuzhi behind him.
He believed that if there was no news from him, the two of them would definitely come to him.
Sure enough, within a short while, he heard Uncle Jiang's joyful voice: "Yelan! Cousin! Everyone is here!"
Shen Tianyun even rushed towards Shen Yingshi with big strides, as if he wanted to confirm the safety of his wife at the first time, but the result was naturally the same as Liu Yelan, no matter how fast he ran, he just stood still and couldn't move forward. , this weird situation caused Jiang Shuzhi and all the followers behind him to look weird, and finally couldn't help laughing out loud, and then the next moment, when they realized what this matter meant, no one could laugh anymore come out.
If Shen Tianyun can't get through, it means that none of them can get through. They set out from the Shen mansion, encountered monsters in the blood mist, and returned to the Shen mansion, but they still couldn't enter the Shen mansion. Who would believe such weird things? , but they happened to meet!
If they don't want to solve it, then they can only look at the people in Xitu Town but cannot see each other. Everything in this blood fog is getting weirder and weirder, and they don't know what will happen in the next moment.
Shen Tianyun drew his sword angrily, but the evil spirit, which was incomparably sharp against the blood monsters, was like a stone sinking into the sea at this time, without causing any waves.
Liu Yelan said in a voice: "Brother Shen, don't waste your energy in vain, sit down and rest first, Mrs. Zun is still fine now, isn't she?"
Shen Tianyun took a deep breath, put the sword back into its sheath, he knew that Liu Yelan was right, Qing'er sat there, her expression was full of anxiety, maybe she was just worried about him, at least she was fine, nothing happened, at this moment he What should be done is to calm down, think about how to deal with everything in front of him, and get together with Qing'er as soon as possible, instead of wasting time in vain.
But Liu Yelan said again: "Actually, it's not in vain, at least brother Shen still proved one of my guesses."
Both Jiang Shuzhi and Shen Tianyun looked at him involuntarily, Liu Yelan looked at Tong Qing in the field and said slowly: "The one in front of you should not be a sorcery, but a formation."
Uncle Jiang asked in surprise, "Evil magic?"
Shen Tianyun frowned: "Formation?"
Jiang Shuzhi quickly asked: "Isn't sorcery an excuse used by those fools in the countryside to cheat...why..." Jiang Shuzhi couldn't speak anymore.
Jiang's family education has always been that the child does not talk about strange powers and gods. Regarding these ghosts and gods, Jiang Heng has been listening to them since childhood, and even brought the Jiang brothers to see many so-called gods in the countryside with their own eyes. In the end, those tricks were exposed. It's just a trick, but everything in front of me is definitely not those tricks.
The meandering blood slowly soaked the ground of the ancestral hall, and amidst the lightning and thunder, the roar of excitement never stopped.
Suddenly, the surroundings became quiet.
Yes, quiet, except for the sound in the ancestral hall, there is no other sound around.
Jiang Shuzhi recovered from the bewildered absence, he was suddenly startled and looked beside him, only to see Liu Yelan's expression was extremely ugly.
But Jiang Shuzhi didn't know when, the lightning, thunder, and thunder disappeared, and there was an excited roar that was not like a human voice, and an endless stream of blood-colored mist gushed out from the Shen's ancestral hall, but in the blink of an eye, everything around him was annihilated. , so that people can not tell any direction.
The mist came too strangely and suddenly, with a very strange crimson color, but there were countless fishy smells in it, as if countless dead fish and shrimps were behind the mist.
At this moment, Jiang Shuzhi, his attendants, government servants and others all looked terrified at this moment. They looked towards the direction where the fog was thickest, roaring excitedly accompanied by dull beating sounds. Everything around them seemed very ominous. The blood-colored thick fog, the entire Shen's ancestral hall seemed to have been swallowed by the blood fog.
All of this looks so terrifying, as if they are no longer in Xitu Town, but have been moved to a certain place in the legendary hell. The legends of gods and ghosts that were originally mentioned as jokes emerged in everyone's minds at this moment , those roars of excitement and the muffled sound of beating flesh and blood caused all sane people to be terrified. Those who make such sounds... can they still be considered "human"?Perhaps, those in Shen's ancestral hall were already a group of monsters who had lost their minds.
Just now, if Liu Yelan hadn't pulled all of them away hastily, would they have turned into such terrifying monsters like those excited guests?
In this terrified atmosphere, Liu Yelan only heard each word: "Everyone, hold hands and don't be separated! Follow me!"
Jiang Shuzhi took a deep breath, lowered his voice as if he was afraid of alarming the group of monsters who were no longer "human" behind him, and said, "Quick!" Then he had an idea: "Take off the hoods and tie them on each other's wrists, never Lost!"
Liu Yelan returned an appreciative look, and then, regardless of the blood behind him, Liu Yelan groped for the way in the Shen family's old house with a solemn expression. They gradually stepped into the bloody fog, and the excited roars behind them Gradually, it seemed to disappear, and there was a dead silence around.
And the more they walked into this mist, the colder Jiang Shuzhi's heart became. They had all witnessed the size of Shen's ancestral hall, so how could it be possible to walk for a long time without touching the wall?Are they...really still in Shen's Ancestral Hall?Are you still in Xitu Town?
Thinking of the blood-stained water-respecting shirt on the ground just now, for some reason, Jiang Shuzhi felt another layer of fear in his heart.
Suddenly, Liu Yelan paused.
Uncle Jiang asked anxiously: "What?" Everyone behind him held their breath and looked at Liu Yelan intently. At this moment, in such a frightening and strange situation, the calm Liu Yelan had become their only hope.
Liu Yelan focused her ears: "Listen."
Jiang Shuzhi and the others paid attention, vaguely, it seemed that there was really a low whistling sound lingering not far away.
Liu Yelan nodded and said, "Let's go."
Then he moved towards the howling sound.
Under such a situation, Jiang Shuzhi hesitated anxiously and said, "This..."
Everything that happened now has exceeded everyone's imagination. No one knows whether the whistling sound is a devil or a ghost, good or bad, but Liu Yelan can so easily determine it?
Liu Yelan glanced at Jiang Shuzhi, and said calmly, "The fog is lighter over there."
Uncle Jiang was startled, and then he looked around, feeling a little ashamed, he was frightened by the gloomy atmosphere around him just now, so he lost his mind, he couldn't even understand such a simple situation, and even questioned Liu Yelan's choice, It was... so embarrassing for him.
Liu Yelan paused, then said in a low voice: "Third Brother, I'm a little worried about Young Brother."
Uncle Jiang's expression changed: "What?"
Liu Yelan shook his head and didn't say any more, but simply said: "In short, we should find a way out as soon as possible."
They were trapped in this weird blood-colored mist, not to mention that Shen's ancestral hall was the source of the weirdness. After traveling for so long, they couldn't be sure whether they were still in Xitu Town, so what about the people in Xitu Town?
Tong Qing trekked all the way and was already unwell and rested at the place where she stayed. If she really encountered the same weird thing as them, how would Tong Qing deal with it?Furthermore, if Tong Qing's luck is even worse, what he encounters is not just such a thing, but a bad situation...
Jiang Shuzhi didn't dare to think about it anymore, he just followed Liu Yelan's firm and quick steps.
The low whistling sound fluctuated, but it always pointed out a direction in this bloody mist. Gradually, the whistling sound became clearer and clearer. Liu Yelan stood still, looked at the figure not far away, and bowed his hands Said: "Young Master Shen."
Jiang Shuzhi also stopped and looked in surprise at the source of the howling sound - Shen Tianyun.
Just now it was clear that Shen Tianyun was standing in the center of the Shen family's ancestral hall. Logically speaking, the blood-colored thick fog had engulfed the entire ancestral hall. Those members of the Shen family and the guests in the ancestral hall all fell into a terrifying state of madness. How do you look at this Shen Tianyun? But when he appeared here, even seeing that he was neatly dressed, he obviously hadn't touched anything, his expression was sober, and he didn't have the slightest influence from the Shen's ancestral hall.
Hearing Liu Yelan's greeting, Shen Tianyun also paused, and returned a salute to Liu and Jiang.
It's strange to say that since meeting Shen Tianyun, the faint whistling sound has disappeared instead, and Jiang Shuzhi couldn't help but have many speculations in his heart.
Liu Yelan said: "Young Master Shen, the situation is so weird now, and the road ahead is unpredictable, I wonder if you can take me with you."
Shen Tianyun frowned, Jiang Shuzhi also felt weird, Shen Tianyun and them were just acquaintances for the first time, and everyone was lost in this weird mist, why Liu Yelan's tone seemed to ask Shen Tianyun to help them out?
What's even more weird is that Shen Tianyun was silent for a while and actually said: "But I have to find the clumsy thorn first."
Liu Yelan was even more surprised, she nodded and said: "Okay, let's find Mrs. Zun first."
Jiang Shuzhi and the others were all at a loss when they heard the two people's conversation, they didn't know what mechanism Liu Yelan was using.
Immediately, they heard a crisp low whistle, and then Shen Tianyun stepped forward without looking back, and Liu Yelan followed behind him without any hesitation, Jiang Shuzhi couldn't help but feel too shocked, could it be that the voice actually Did it really come from Shen Tianyun?But it was too strange, the voice seemed to have a direction, guiding Shen Tianyun to move forward step by step, I don't know if it was his illusion, but wherever Shen Tianyun's steps went, the blood-colored thick fog did lighten a little.
Uncle Jiang couldn't help but asked Liu Yelan in a low voice: "What's going on here?!"
Liu Yelan glanced at Shen Tianyun's back in front of him, and explained: "In ancient times, there was a divine sword called 'Evil Exorcising'. It is rumored that wherever this sword goes, it will ward off evil spirits and make strange noises..."
Jiang Shuzhi couldn't help looking at the long sword in Shen Tianyun's hand. Liu Yelan didn't say that he didn't feel it yet, but when Liu Yelan mentioned it, he really felt that the sound came from the sword, and when he looked at the sword carefully, it was ordinary. Not even the swords sold in the blacksmith shop in Anping County have any radiance on them. They are as ordinary as an old sword that has been used for too long and has lost its brilliance. I did not expect such a big origin.
Shen Tianyun in front of him paused, and turned around to take a deep look at Liu Yelan: "Dare to ask this young master's name, Bowen can remember it, but Shen admires it."
When we met before, the patriarch Shen only introduced Jiang Shuzhi and Shen Tianyun. After all, Jiang Shuzhi had different identities and represented the Jiang family, while Liu Yelan looked like a group of friends with Jiang Shuzhi. The scene was hurried, and Shen Tianyun didn't know Liu Yelan's name .
"Under Liu Yelan, an idler in the country, Mr. Shen praised you absurdly." Liu Yelan replied with neither humble nor overbearing expression.
Shen Tianyun smiled and said: "It's not necessarily absurd praise. In today's world, the avenues of the heavens have long become the theory of gods and ghosts. Brother Liu can still recognize this 'exorcism' under such circumstances, which shows that he has a good vision, and the future will definitely be different." Mediocre people."
These words are a bit of a commentary, originally it should be condescending to make people uncomfortable, but Shen Tianyun smiled openly, walking side by side with Liu Yelan and Jiang Shuzhi at this time, showing a more heroic and vigorous appearance, which really made Jiang Shuzhi feel disgusted , At the same time, he was also surprised by Liu Yelan's judgment. Could it be that Liu Yelan guessed that there was an evil sword here just after hearing the whistling sound from a distance?
Liu Yelan glanced at the surprised Jiang Shuzhi, and said helplessly: "There is nothing wrong with the countryside, I just like to read a few more casual books and gossip. I was in the Shen's ancestral hall just now, and when I glanced from a distance, Brother Shen, the long sword in your hand is called I thought it looked familiar, so I chased after him, I’m sorry.”
Shen Tianyun smiled sassyly: "Since Brother Liu can recognize this sword, it is destined, why bother to stick to this mundane etiquette. I don't know what is going on in front of me, what advice does Brother Liu have?"
Liu Yelan glanced at Jiang Shuzhi, and the two of them exchanged a look, and they reached a consensus: I'm afraid I have to tell Shen Tianyun the cause and effect of the investigation.
Firstly, they could see the water-respecting shirt in the mad woman's hand just now, and if they expected it right, the strange and sinister blood mist in front of them might be inseparably related to the extermination of Zhang and Wang's families; secondly, Since Shen Tianyun was able to recognize the master of such an ancient divine sword as Pixie, he would not be an evil person, so he could be trusted; thirdly, Shen Tianyun must have superb martial power with his hand holding Pixie. It would also be in their interest to inform him of the cause and effect.
Then, after hearing about the affairs of Zhang Wang's family and the clues they found in Xitu Town, Shen Tianyun fell silent amidst the roar of swords, and after a while he sneered and said, "I'm afraid that my clansmen haven't found this town. told you many things."
Jiang Shuzhi frowned and said, "Brother Shen, what do you mean?"
Shen Tianyun said indifferently: "Although Xitu Town is also under the rule of your father, Xitu must have been located in a remote place for many years, and has never had much contact with the outside world. Your father only feels that this place is safe and peaceful under the rule of Shen, and there is nothing to do. Pay attention."
Jiang Shuzhi couldn't help showing embarrassment, Shen Tianyun's words were tactful, but his tone was straightforward: the order of a county, the land under its jurisdiction, whether it is big or small, a place like Xitu Town, there are no more, no less, and three. There are more than ten of them. Jiang Heng, as the county magistrate, naturally cannot spend a lot of energy everywhere. Among these many towns, there are some places that are more complicated than Xitu, some that are poorer than Xitu, and some that are easier to produce talents than Xitu. In short, in the eyes of a qualified county magistrate, a place like Xitu is remote and has little production, and there is no bad thing that needs to be taken care of so that it does not go wrong. It can be said that everything is inconspicuous everywhere, even if Jiang Heng is He is a good county magistrate, and it is difficult to pay too much attention.
It can be said that if it hadn’t been for the fact that Zhang Wang’s extermination of the two clans had not happened in the county town and had followed the clues to find this place, even Jiang Shuzhi, who likes to travel around the most, would not have set foot in Xitu Town, a remote village with no characteristics. .
Therefore, Jiang Shuzhi couldn't refute what Shen Tianyun said.
But he also felt aggrieved, even though he paid less attention, it was not his father's fault!
Liu Yelan said: "According to brother Shen's words, is there anything special about this stream in the land under the jurisdiction of County Magistrate Jiang?"
Shen Tianyun said indifferently: "Aren't you investigating the case of Zhang Wang's extermination? In this town of Xitu, such things happen every year."
Jiang Shuzhi's eyes widened, how could it be possible?This is simply appalling!There are extermination cases every year? !How could this town of Xitu hide it? !
Shen Tianyun looked at Jiang Shuzhi's expression and sneered, "Don't worry, I won't be so disrespectful, it's not about exterminating the family, it's just about killing a few people inexplicably."
There was an indescribable sarcasm in that expression, but in the depths of his eyes, there was an indescribable coldness.
Liu Yelan's heart moved, and he couldn't help looking at Shen Tianyun, thinking twice, but finally he only asked: "Oh? There are at least a few hundred families in Xitu Town. No matter where it is, birth, old age, sickness and death are as unstoppable as the cycle of the four seasons. A few dead families...doesn't seem like a big deal?"
Shen Tianyun looked at Liu Yelan with an unpredictable expression: "Brother Liu, since you are investigating the case of exterminating the family, don't you know the weirdness in it?"
Liu Yelan was silent.
The door is closed, and there is no trace of entry.
The deceased looked terrified, but there was no scar around him, and there was no trace of poison on his body.
Then what kind of secret poison used in the small tribe in ancient times could cause such an effect... It was just something he said to comfort people's hearts. In fact, until now, Liu Yelan didn't know the exact cause of death of those people.The implication of Shen Tianyun's words is that every year people in Xitu Town will die like this?But why has no one reported it to Anping County?What is the reason for this?
The mystery of Xitu Town is becoming more and more puzzling.
After thinking about it a few times, Liu Yelan couldn't help asking: "Then what will happen to the people in Shen's ancestral hall?"
Shen Tianyun said indifferently: "I don't know."
The expressions of Liu Yelan and Jiang Shuzhi couldn't help being a little weird. The death of dozens of members of the Zhang and Wang clans was so strange that they seemed to be right in front of them. Could it be that the Shen clan's ancestral hall also...
Shen Tianyun said again: "I really don't know, maybe they will wake up like a big dream and continue to live their lives in Xitu Town, day after day, maybe they will die inexplicably like in the past A few, maybe . . . none left, who knows."
This last sentence caused Liu Yelan and Jiang Shuzhi to shiver involuntarily.
Looking at the expressions of the two of them, Shen Tianyun couldn't help but sneered and said: "Everyone, good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and what you sow will reap what you reaped. Although it is just nonsense in the ghost story book, it is not completely unreasonable." of."
Jiang Shuzhi couldn't help but said: "Brother Shen, you seem to be very clear about many of these things, can you solve the doubts for the two of us? After all, so many lives are involved..."
Shen Tianyun was silent for a while and said: "Didn't you just say that the county has announced the case and pushed everything to the three horses? The result has already been reached, so why bother to say anything more?" Then he said vaguely: "Some things, the less you know, the better."
Liu Yelan frowned and came again.
The old woman surnamed Dou was like this before, she knew the origin of the Jingshui shirt, but she was terrified and unwilling to tell it, and now Shen Tianyun is the same, she clearly knows something, although she lacks the frightened expression, but judging by his appearance, she is not afraid. I am willing to say more, and even have a sense of "it is for your own good to hide from you".
Liu Yelan took a deep breath and decided to find the truth by himself, he only said: "Brother Shen, some of our companions are also in Xitu Town, in this thick fog, is it possible to find them?"
Shen Tianyun couldn't help frowning at this time, let alone Liu Yelan was thinking about Tong Qing, he was also thinking about his newly married wife at this time, but he still couldn't tell the direction in this thick fog, he was about to say something when suddenly a sharp long When the howl sounded, Shen Tianyun suddenly changed his color, protected Liu Jiang and the others behind him, and flew forward with the evil sword in his hand.
In the next moment, Liu Yelan and Jiang Shuzhi saw something that they couldn't believe. It was a bloody thing, which could only be described as a thing, because the thing was bloody and bloody, dripping blood continuously. I really couldn't see anything, but there was an overwhelming disgusting smell, even though they lost their sense of smell due to the stench in the fog, they still felt that life would be better than death under this smell ! ,
This kind of monster, not to mention fighting with it like Shen Tianyun, ordinary people just look at it more, and after a while, they will immediately fall down. Jiang Shuzhi directly fell to the side. At this time, he has completely believed that the ghosts and gods in this world It is not false to say, otherwise how can explain all the monsters they encountered today!
This thing was a mass of blood and flesh, but it was menacing. It kept rushing towards Shen Tianyun, as if it would swallow up Shen Tianyun's belt and bones at any time, which made people shudder.
Jiang Shuzhi tried his best to look in that direction, only to see that Shen Tianyun was so powerful, the evil spirit sword in his hand shone brightly, causing the monster to let out a horrific scream, spilled a pool of blood, and suffered heavy injuries!
What Jiang Shuzhi admired even more was Liu Yelan. This guy was obviously just like him, an ordinary person, and even weaker than himself in force, but he was so brave and fearless. In the fierce and inseparable fight, Jiang Shuzhi looked at Liu Yelan's figure and couldn't help but feel terrified. He had a premonition that if something happened to this guy here, his cousin would definitely not forgive him.
He hurriedly covered his mouth and nose, and took the risk to step forward to pull Liu Yelan away, but he saw that in the current battle situation, even Shen Tianyun was gradually defeated by the roar of the group of monsters , this monster is actually getting more and more ferocious amidst the ferocious roar!
Jiang Shuzhi felt terrified, pulled Liu Yelan and shouted: "Aren't you afraid of death?!"
At this moment, he only had one thought in his mind, where to run with Liu Yelan, if Shen Tianyun was defeated, escaped, or died, what would they do to escape from this monster!
All of a sudden, the billowing blood mist became more aggressive, as if there were countless undiscovered dangers hidden in it.
But suddenly he only heard Liu Yelan yelling: "I see!"
Jiang Shuzhi really wanted to split open Liu Yelan's brain and see what was inside!You knew already!You know shit!This is a life and death situation, what do you know!
If it wasn't for the fact that this guy has such a good relationship with Tong Qing, Jiang Shuzhi would like to kick this guy directly to the monster's mouth right now!
But Liu Yelan suddenly pushed Jiang Shuzhi away, and said straight to Shen Tianyun who was retreating under the monster's hands: "Brother Shen, seize the opportunity!!!"
Jiang Shuzhi was really confused at this moment, he came to hide Liu Yelan from danger, what does this scholar mean?Why did you push yourself away instead?What else did you say to Shen Tianyun?
Liu Yelan suddenly yelled at the monster: "Zhuer!!!"
Jiang Shuzhi and his followers really wanted to tie up Liu Yelan and beat him up.
You call a girl's name to a monster, even your beloved girl can't save you!
However, in the next moment, the monster really seemed to be frozen in place by the shout, and stayed in place.
Liu Yelan's expression was full of determination: "Pearl, tell me, how did you die?"
The monster suddenly let out an unprecedented sharp roar, and the stern and murderous aura in it made everyone in the field tremble even with the evil spirit sword.
Jiang Shuzhi's mind was blank at this moment, he just thought: If I had known, when my cousin begged him to take them into Wang's haunted house, he should have broken his cousin's leg, and then strangled Liu Yelan to death, the world would inevitably be destroyed. Much cleaner.It's not like now... Does this scholar know what the hell he's doing?! ! !He's so frightened that he wants to go to the bathroom, okay? ! ! ! !Does this scholar know that it is a monster that eats people, not the kitten next door who teases and scratches your paw the most! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
At this moment, not only Jiang Shuzhi, but even Shen Tianyun's heart was a little broken.
He imagined that maybe a guy like Liu Yelan who knows the evil sword would come up with some tricks to cooperate with him, but he didn't expect that it would be such a horrifying trick. Seeing the horror that spurted blood all over his body, the blood mist around him was like a mountain torrent. The tumbling monster broke out, Shen Tianyun squeezed the trembling evil sword in his hand, stood beside Liu Yelan, and said with certainty: "If it becomes stronger again, I will hide behind you."
Liu Yelan: ...
Why does everyone have no confidence in him?
But at this moment, he and the monster stared fixedly at each other, and could no longer pay attention to his unreliable companions.
Then, Liu Yelan calmly said: "You have been wronged."
Winding blood flowed out from the two holes in the lump of flesh and blood, and then, they heard indistinct words: "...No... Steal... No... No... Steal..."
Liu Yelan thought about it and guessed, "You were wrongfully stolen?"
The meandering blood water gradually gathered on the ground into a blood spring, the bloody monster squirmed, and the voice became more and more sharp: "...No!...No!...No stealing!..."
This horrific sight terrified everyone, for fear that the monster would explode again and turn them all into identical monsters.
Jiang Shuzhi followed Liu Yelan's words, and suddenly said "ah": "I know who Zhu'er is now! That maid of the Wang family! The one with Ma San's childhood sweetheart!"
The monster fell silent suddenly, and murmured repeatedly: "Ma San...Ma San...brother..."
Although the scene in front of me is weird and dangerous, for some reason, everyone feels sore and sad in their hearts. Even though they died unjustly and turned into a monster without sanity, they only remember the wrongs and injustices they suffered, but there are still one or two The name, I still can't forget it.
Even Jiang Shuzhi was silent at this time.
But Liu Yelan said to Shen Tianyun beside him: "Brother Shen, get ready!"
Shen Tianyun clenched the Evil Resisting Sword tightly, his toes were already accumulating energy, but he heard Liu Yelan say to the monster word by word: "Ma San is already dead."
The monster stood still for a moment, as if it had turned into a stone. In the next moment, the stone erupted like a mudslide. The turbulent blood mist and countless flesh and blood crazily came towards Liu Yelan. Liu Yelan was torn into tens of thousands of pieces, Jiang Shuzhi's eyes widened, he wanted to step forward and pull Liu Yelan away, but it was too late, too late, as Liu Yelan was about to die here, a clear sound resounded throughout the world When the chime sounded, it was like a long wind breaking through the waves, and a thunderbolt fell from the sky. The turbulent blood mist frenzy was split into two, and the flesh and blood whirlwind was also cut from it, and everything around returned to silence.
Jiang Shuzhi stared dumbfounded at the blood and flesh spewing out to both sides with Liu Yelan as the center line, and then sincerely said to Shen Tianyun who retracted his sword and fell to the ground: "Brother Shen, you must be my invincible general in the next year."
With this kind of force, it is unreasonable not to be a general.
And Shen Tianyun only smiled calmly: "It's also thanks to Brother Liu for distracting it's attention, otherwise this monster has a strange aura, and the evil spirit sword would not want to confront it head-on."
Liu Yelan was lost in thought while looking at a red gold object at his feet.
When Jiang Shuzhi saw that thing, he suddenly understood why Liu Yelan could call out the monster's name. There was also such a thing on top of Ma San's body. The two things were in pairs, and it seemed to be a token of love.
Liu Yelan looked up at the heavy fog of blood: "It seems that the Wang family did something shameful back then, Zhu'er was beaten, killed and pushed into the river after being wronged by them for stealing something. I'm afraid it was to kill people and silence her." ?”
The entourage behind them had gone through so many strange incidents, and I don't know if they had the courage to practice, and they asked aloud: "How do you know that they were killed and pushed into the river?"
Liu Yelan said calmly, "Otherwise, there is no way to explain why it stinks so much."
"Ouch~" "Ooh~" There was a sound of vomiting behind me, I really don't blame them, thinking that Zhu'er was beaten to a bloody mess and then pushed into the river... Thinking of the shape just now, it's really hard not to vomit .
Jiang Shuzhi got caught up in the case at this time, but calmed down: "According to what we found at the time, this Pearl should be the maid of Wang's eldest house, and seems to be the dowry maid of the wife of the eldest house. In this small town, Those who can make slaves and maidservants are rare, and the Wang family is considered to be doing a good job in business. The wife who marries in the door can also have a maid as a dowry. unless the matter to be covered up is too vicious and has to be done."
Liu Yelan nodded, agreeing with Jiang Shuzhi's judgment.
Jiang Shuzhi thought for a while, and suddenly thought: "Since this Zhu'er is a dowry maid, she is the eldest son, but she has a relationship with Ma San. Could it be that the eldest son of the Wang family is jealous..."
Liu Yelan gave him a supercilious look: "If that prince really wants to accept Zhu'er, just ask him directly, will his wife still refuse?"
Jiang Shuzhi chuckled: "It's hard to say, maybe his wife doesn't like him taking concubines, so she did it?"
Liu Yelan shook his head: "Even so, driving this girl out of the house, or selling her secretly, even if it is to be dealt with thoroughly, the method of killing people will not be so cruel, and after she dies, she will push her body into the river. Think about it again." After Zhu'er's death, the Wang family moved to the county, and then the family was wiped out... There must be other secrets in it."
Jiang Shuzhi frowned and smiled wryly: "Forget it, this kind of thing is really not my strong point, thinking about it makes my head hurt, alas, it would be nice if I had wine with me."
Shen Tianyun laughed out loud when he heard that, they were trapped in this blood mist at this moment, Jiang Shuzhi was still thinking of drinking, he was considered a strange person.
But Liu Yelan had an even worse speculation in his heart. Zhu'er died of injustice, but in the end she became such a monster and hid in the blood mist. Then, according to what Shen Tianyun said, people in this town die every year for no reason. , How many died unjustly, and how many turned into monsters and hid behind this blood mist?Then in Shen's ancestral hall... how many monsters were born?Will there be any living people?
But even though he felt that everything around him was getting more and more treacherous, Liu Yelan secretly felt that they were getting closer and closer to the truth. There might be a huge secret hidden in the whole Xitu Town. Hypnosis has been forgotten, but an insider like Shen Tianyun Dou is unwilling to mention the big secret.
I don't know if it was because of killing the monster, but when the Evil Resisting Sword resounded, the sound was much clearer. Looking at it, Jiang Shuzhi felt that the sword seemed to be brighter than before, and Liu Yelan couldn't help but come out. He praised: "Evil energy is washed away, it really is an ancient sword."
Shen Tianyun also lowered his head to look at his saber, raised his eyebrows and smiled, suddenly his smile faded, and his expression became a little anxious: "Quick! This way!"
Bixie Qingyue's buzzing seemed to be reminding the master of something important. Seeing Shen Tianyun's expression, Liu Yelan and Jiang Shuzhi naturally didn't bother to ask more questions. They only tried their best to catch up with Shen Tianyun's pace while ensuring that no one around them was left behind. , but the two of them were not surprised that Shen Tianyun, who hadn't changed his face against the blood monster just now, would show such anxiety, what happened?
When they saw the portal in front of them clearly, they all exclaimed in unison.
The gate in front of him is tall and lacquered, even if it cannot be compared with those of the great families, it is still quite grand, and with the decorations on the gate, it looks like a joyous scene, on the gate it is impressively written: "Shen's Mansion".
Liu Yelan and Jiang Shuzhi looked at each other with a bit of shock, this is clearly the Shen's mansion they visited earlier!
But they just came out of Shen's ancestral hall and walked for a long time in the blood mist before arriving here. The ancestral hall is obviously in the mansion!
All this is already so weird that it is difficult to explain it with common sense, Jiang Shuzhi stepped forward and grabbed Shen Tianyun: "Brother Shen! Be careful!!!"
The portal in front of me seemed to still have the warmth left by the excitement and joy, but the surrounding area was quiet.Who knows what will happen if you step into the portal that suddenly appeared in this blood mist.
Although Jiang Shuzhi believed in Shen Tianyun's skill, but everything in front of him was extraordinary, and he and Shen Tianyun just had a life-and-death battle, he didn't want to see Shen Tianyun make any impulsive decision that he would regret in the future.
Shen Tianyun paused for a moment, then calmed down and said: "The clumsy thorn is inside!"
Jiang Shuzhi's eyes are clear, no wonder Shen Tianyun suddenly lost his composure, it's inevitable that something involving a loved one will make people lose their minds, but he still reminded: "The appearance of this portal is too weird, brother Shen still needs to be careful."
Shen Tianyun nodded solemnly, and the Evil Resisting Sword in his hand uttered a clear and long cry, as if in response to the master's state of mind, but Liu Yelan stretched out his hand and pushed the door open, turned to Shen Tianyun and said: "Brother Shen, let me go in first, and if What's wrong with me, I have a close friend named Tong Qing, please take care of me, brother Shen."
Jiang Shuzhi was again shocked by today's Liu Yelan, even with Shen Tianyun's ability, he persuaded him to be more cautious, but a scholar like Liu Yelan went to explore the way? ? ? ! ! !
Without waiting for Jiang Shuzhi to say anything, Liu Yelan said first: "Third Brother, don't say any more, I am the most suitable person."
Shen Tianyun was in a state of confusion at this time, and his judgment was the most unsteady, and Jiang Shuzhi seldom dabbled in such weird things. Liu Yelan didn't feel that his decision was wrong. Yue, since everything happened in Shen's house, there must be a reason for them to come back to the gate of Shen's house, it is most appropriate for him to go in and have a look.Furthermore... among many of them, only he, Liu Yelan, had no worries and no relatives, so naturally he should go.
Before Shen Tianyun could say anything to Jiang Shuzhi, Liu Yelan had already opened the door and entered, and then he was surprised to see another person.
The pale Tong Qing seemed to be struggling even to stand, but she was staring at the old woman in front of her with a bad expression.
Liu Yelan blurted out almost immediately: "Brother Qing!"
But Tong Qing didn't seem to see him, her expression remained unchanged.
A fine layer of sweat broke out on Liu Yelan's forehead. Just now he said that Shen Tianyun's concern is chaotic, and so is he. From Qing's perspective, Tong Qing should be resting at the place where she was staying at this time, so how could she appear in the lobby of Shen's house?All of this is obviously unreasonable, but Liu Yelan is still very sure that this is Tong Qing.
Along the way, they had been together for such a long time that they almost never separated. Only then did Liu Yelan realize that he had remembered so many small things about Tong Qing, including the tiny mole under the earlobe, which was displeased. From time to time, the corners of the mouth are pursed, and even the way the clothes are dressed loosely and intentionally loose, you can outline them in your mind without looking at them with your eyes.
Liu Yelan subconsciously didn't think about why this was so, he just looked at the scene intently, the situation was too weird, not only Tong Qing, Shen Tianyun's wife, but also the Dou family was there.Looking at the crowded but tense hall, it seemed that everyone in Xitu Town was already here except for the men in the ancestral hall.
In the next moment, Liu Yelan suddenly realized that this is not impossible!
The people Shen's grand banquet hosted must be all the people who have acquaintances in the entire Xitu Town. What's the surprise that most of Xitu Town is included?Dou Shi is naturally also likely to be invited.Just now Shen Yingshi hastily left the ancestral hall to avoid the male guests, so why is it impossible to be with these people?As a newlywed, she naturally had to socialize with the women of the clan in the town.As for Tong Qing...if the blood mist descends, the place where they are staying will also be shrouded, Tong Qing drags his sick body to find the Shen family's courtyard in the thick fog... He and Jiang Shuzhi come to Shen's mansion, as long as Tong Qing asks his entourage, he will be able to He knew that he was worried about Tong Qing about such a weird blood mist, so how could Tong Qing not be worried?Will you come?
Looking at Tong Qing's pale face, Liu Yelan couldn't tell what mood he was in for a while.
But there are so many people in Shen's house, none of them saw him walking in, everyone was arguing fiercely about something, there were mostly women and children in the room, and from time to time someone was seen sobbing and covering their faces, making a commotion, but Liu Yelan couldn't hear it at all Hearing the sound, he couldn't tell what was going on at all.
Liu Yelan couldn't help but walked towards Tong Qing, but was surprised to find that no matter how he took steps, he couldn't get close to Tong Qing, as if there was an invisible wall between him and Tong Qing.
This situation made Liu Yelan stop involuntarily. He took a deep look at Tong Qing, turned his head and was about to walk out, and then found that there was a vast mist of blood behind him, and he didn't know where he would go when he walked in. Liu Yelan took a deep breath, then simply sat down cross-legged, pressed his forehead and thought about everything in front of him, waiting for Shen Tianyun and Jiang Shuzhi behind him.
He believed that if there was no news from him, the two of them would definitely come to him.
Sure enough, within a short while, he heard Uncle Jiang's joyful voice: "Yelan! Cousin! Everyone is here!"
Shen Tianyun even rushed towards Shen Yingshi with big strides, as if he wanted to confirm the safety of his wife at the first time, but the result was naturally the same as Liu Yelan, no matter how fast he ran, he just stood still and couldn't move forward. , this weird situation caused Jiang Shuzhi and all the followers behind him to look weird, and finally couldn't help laughing out loud, and then the next moment, when they realized what this matter meant, no one could laugh anymore come out.
If Shen Tianyun can't get through, it means that none of them can get through. They set out from the Shen mansion, encountered monsters in the blood mist, and returned to the Shen mansion, but they still couldn't enter the Shen mansion. Who would believe such weird things? , but they happened to meet!
If they don't want to solve it, then they can only look at the people in Xitu Town but cannot see each other. Everything in this blood fog is getting weirder and weirder, and they don't know what will happen in the next moment.
Shen Tianyun drew his sword angrily, but the evil spirit, which was incomparably sharp against the blood monsters, was like a stone sinking into the sea at this time, without causing any waves.
Liu Yelan said in a voice: "Brother Shen, don't waste your energy in vain, sit down and rest first, Mrs. Zun is still fine now, isn't she?"
Shen Tianyun took a deep breath, put the sword back into its sheath, he knew that Liu Yelan was right, Qing'er sat there, her expression was full of anxiety, maybe she was just worried about him, at least she was fine, nothing happened, at this moment he What should be done is to calm down, think about how to deal with everything in front of him, and get together with Qing'er as soon as possible, instead of wasting time in vain.
But Liu Yelan said again: "Actually, it's not in vain, at least brother Shen still proved one of my guesses."
Both Jiang Shuzhi and Shen Tianyun looked at him involuntarily, Liu Yelan looked at Tong Qing in the field and said slowly: "The one in front of you should not be a sorcery, but a formation."
Uncle Jiang asked in surprise, "Evil magic?"
Shen Tianyun frowned: "Formation?"
Jiang Shuzhi quickly asked: "Isn't sorcery an excuse used by those fools in the countryside to cheat...why..." Jiang Shuzhi couldn't speak anymore.
Jiang's family education has always been that the child does not talk about strange powers and gods. Regarding these ghosts and gods, Jiang Heng has been listening to them since childhood, and even brought the Jiang brothers to see many so-called gods in the countryside with their own eyes. In the end, those tricks were exposed. It's just a trick, but everything in front of me is definitely not those tricks.
