Chapter Seventy-Four: Martyrdom


"Knock knock."

There was a knock at the door in the depths of the darkness.The sound broke the dead silence of the house.Voices, noises, and footsteps rang out together.The world seems to come alive at this moment.I don't know if it's her delusion, the tight darkness around her seems to have shrunk a lot, the cold is receding, and the lights are swaying warm.The woman breathed a sigh of relief.The darkness and dead silence just now, she didn't want to experience it again, and she wanted to find the hustle and bustle.before turning his head.Scare!

An expressionless face in the dimness.She stumbled back a few steps, opening her voice to shout for help."

Mrs.

Huyan, are you okay?"

Speak?

Is it human?

If you look closely, isn't this one of the wooden servants of this house?

Why is this person walking silently?"

Nothing."

She clutched her chest, gasping for a few quick breaths, barely composed."

What's the matter with you?"

The servant made a salute."

My master asked me to take Mrs.

Huyan to another courtyard for temporary refuge.""

Avoid?"

The woman was stunned, "What avoid?"

”The servant remained wooden and stood in the dark, like a stone statue with only a moving mouth."

A Taoist leader just came, and he insisted on drinking in this courtyard.""

Drinking here?"

The woman frowned, "Didn't your master tell the Taoist priest that there are female dependents in this courtyard?"

”"My master said it, but ......"

The servant's stone-like face finally had a different expression."

The chief said, the night is long, and there is a beautiful woman as a companion......

Isn't it beautiful?

”"How can it be!"

The woman's face was flushed with anger."

How can there be such a brazen Taoist priest in this world?!"

At this time, there was a commotion in the hallway.The woman looked away.In the courtyard, a short-haired Taoist priest with a long sword at his waist broke in...............................

"What do you call a lady?"

”The woman responded with a cold face: "The husband's surname is Huyan." ”The Taoist priest was unimpressed, and said with a smile: "It was Mrs.

Huyan in person." ”The woman snorted coldly and turned away from him.This Taoist priest was really rude and rude, and he actually forcibly pulled the woman and didn't let her go.The old man couldn't, so he had to prepare food and drinks in the room.At this moment, seeing that the two were about to clash again, he quickly took out a small wine jar, opened the lid, and suddenly the mellow aroma of wine filled the room.The old man poured it for the two of them one by one, and opened his mouth to adjust the atmosphere: "It's not that the old man is boasting, my wine ......"

"What does this mean, old man?"

”The Taoist priest suddenly thought to his words, "Poor Dao is not a noble guest, and he can't be fooled with such bad wine?"

”After that, untie a gourd from your waist.He poured the wine back from his glass and landed at the feet of one of the servants, who said nothing, but moved his steps away from the wine."

Let's see."

The Taoist priest shook the small gourd proudly, "Is this a good wine?"

”After speaking, raise your hand and pour yourself a glass.The woman glanced at it, but she scoffed.But I saw that the wine in the glass was cloudy and yellow, and there was still some black residue floating in it.I thought I could see what kind of elixir and jade liquid, but it turned out to be a hillbilly who was not ashamed, and he thought that his own country soil was better than the old man's mellow wine."

Don't believe me?"

The woman's disdain was displayed on her face, which seemed to arouse the Taoist's brute temperament, and she took the wine glass and stuffed it into the woman's face.The woman was startled by this abrupt movement, raised her hand and slapped it, and it landed on the hand handed by the Taoist priest.With such a crooked hand, the wine spilled out, splashing the face of the old man next to him.The atmosphere immediately became awkward and eerie.The Taoist priest Shi Shiran, who started the crime, sat back, and the old god was there.The servants who witnessed their master's embarrassment remained motionless, like ignorant puppets.The old man was silent, only raised his wide sleeves and lowered his head to wipe them.Only the woman apologized in embarrassment.A moment later.The old man finally lowered his sleeves and said in his usual kind tone: "A little accident, don't mind. ”The woman's heart was relieved with guilt."

Old ......

Hiss!

”As soon as he raised his eyes, all the words turned into a breath of cool air in his throat.What kind of face is in front of you?!

The lips are turned outward, and the corners of the mouth are cracked all the way to the base of the ear; The nose collapsed and moved to the forehead, one eye stood up in place, but the other eye moved to the center of the face!

When he wiped the wine, the old man actually wiped his facial features distorted and displaced.Seeing the change in the woman's expression, the old man didn't notice it at all, but laughed with this distorted face: "Mrs.

Huyan, what's the matter?

Is there anything wrong with the old decay?

”"I—I......"

The woman's voice trembled, not daring to look at the strange face again.Looking away, she saw the servants staring at her expressionlessly on the dim edge of the room, motionless.The woman felt that the light was getting fainter and the cold was getting stronger, and she turned her head to look at the other guest at the table.The Taoist priest smiled and nodded, stood up and poured a glass of turbid wine."

How?""

It's better to drink poor wine."……………… In the dimly lit room, the lights and shadows flickered.silent and solemn servants; an old man with misplaced facial features; the frightened woman; A Taoist priest who calmly pours wine.There was an eerie calm in the field.Until."

Huh?"

The old man finally saw the clue, he snorted softly, raised his sleeve and sniffed."

Fu wine?

I see. ”He beckoned, and the servant next to him handed him a bronze mirror.He looked at the mirror left and right a few times, and sighed several times, as if ordinary people had seen their eyebrows thickened.Finally, he couldn't bear to reach out and carefully knead his face, but unfortunately for a long time, he only restored the appearance of three points.The light on the oil lamp was like a bean, and the old man or the old ghost put down the mirror and sighed faintly."

You Taoist priest doesn't know anything, this smiling face, but the old man invited the 'Xu Bodhisattva' with the best craftsmanship within a radius of 100 miles to mold it.Kindly let you stay overnight, but you ruined my good face. ”"It doesn't matter."

Li Changan tied the gourd back to his waist, and his tone was as relaxed as if he was at home, "Wouldn't it be enough to ask the craftsman to shape it again?"

”"That's not going to happen."

The old man turned his face and grinned: "For a while, the craftsman has sacrificed the old man's five internal organs temple." ”As he spoke, he suddenly turned his head and turned his strange face to the woman.She immediately let out a scream and fell to the ground, not caring about the pain, and crawled to the wall with her hands and feet."

Madame, don't be afraid."

The old man was still smiling, but under this face, it looked different and terrifying."

I just want to give you a good marriage.""

A good marriage?

Do you have a relationship with the stomach of your old ghost?

”Li Changan sneered, picked up the wine glass, and walked to the woman's side."

This Mrs.

Huyan is already a wife, I'm afraid I'm going to blow off your 'kindness'.""

Oh, why don't young people listen to the kindness of old people?"

The old ghost sighed in a similar way."

In that case, then the old decay can only be offended!"

As he spoke, the servants standing around him had gathered around, and the old ghost was still sitting on the seat, fiddling with his facial features with a bronze mirror, and only waved his hand and said, "Take them down." ”At the end, I added another sentence."

Don't spoil that Lady Huyan, as for that Taoist priest......" he poured himself a cup."

I'm going to use his heart and liver with wine!"

…………………… Madame Huyan covered her mouth and sobbed quietly in the corner of the wall, and in front of her, the grim-faced servants gathered around."

Wait.""

Oh."

The old ghost, who was struggling with his own nose, raised his eyelids and secretly thought that the Taoist priest had to confess his last words.But he saw the man spilling the wine out of the cup.When the wine fell to the ground, there was a puff of smoke, the space distorted, and everything in the room changed.The table became an altar, the bed became a coffin, the windows and walls were mixed together into stone walls, the corners were piled with bones, and the ornaments on the walls were nailed to death!

This is the side house of the mansion, which is clearly a tomb.When the old ghost saw this, he was first startled, and then he burst out laughing.He was shocked that the Taoist priest Fu wine was so powerful that he could return the original appearance of this big tomb, but he smiled ......, "You Taoist priest really killed himself, if it is a house, you still have some hope of escaping, and now you turn back into the tomb, you can't escape!"

”Looking at the effectiveness of this glass of wine, Li Changan was also a little smacked, this guy from the Zhenfu Division is amazing.This wine was given to him by the bearded man after he separated from Yan Xinglie, saying that it could return to the appearance and remove the illusion and retain the truth.Now it's just the right time, he gave it a try, and it's really a good baby!

Li Changan ignored the old ghost's provocation, let alone the approaching servant, but turned his head and called."

Mrs.

Huyan.""

Huh?

At!

”The woman looked up with tears in her eyes and replied blankly.Li Changan pointed to the dried corpses nailed to the wall, and asked with a smile: "Do you know who these are?"

”The woman sobbed twice and stammered, "Martyrdom?

”"Not bad."

Li Changan nodded and continued to ask, "Do you know why you want to be nailed to death with iron nails?"

”The voice fell, and Mrs.

Huyan didn't have time to answer, and the old ghost over there had already changed his face."

What are you doing?

Kill him!

”He shouted.However, the servants who had been at his mercy like puppets did not obey his orders at this moment.The old ghost hurriedly stood up, took out a bronze bell in his hand, and struck it with a small wooden hammer."

Bang."

The voice was crisp, but the servants looked pained.In this bell, Li Changan continued: "It's because I'm afraid.The owner of the tomb was afraid of the servants who were buried. ”The bell rang more and more urgently, and the servants fell to the ground in pain, overflowing with blue, which was the image of the damaged body of the resentful ghost.But none of the servants took a step forward, but looked at Li Changan with a bit of hope in their eyes."

Before his death, the master's family was high, and the servants were as cheap as mud and dust.But after death, everyone is just a ghost in the same cave, can they still abuse people with power?

”"So if you want to keep the respect in front of you, you can only nail the corpse with iron nails, use magic to control the soul, and force them to continue to be slaves and servants, but if you ......"

Li Changan glanced at the old ghost with a bleak face and moved to a dried corpse."

What if you take off the nails and set them free?"

What will happen?

This is naturally the old ghost knows best."

No!"

He shouted, threw down the bronze bell, and turned into a yin wind and rushed towards Li Changan.But Li Changan had already grabbed the iron nails on the corpse, and pulled them out with force in his hands.The old ghost had already pounced in front of Li Changan, but at this moment, among the servants, a yin wind suddenly rushed out and became entangled with the old ghost.Immediately, in the tomb, the wind was miserable, and the ghosts were crying and howling.But after a few clicks, the servant gradually ran out, but Li Changan pulled out the iron nail of the second dried corpse.So, another yin wind rushed towards the old ghost.Then, the third, fourth........................

Inside a narrow burial chamber.A huge cloud of yin qi occupied most of the space.In the midst of a terrible howl, I saw a dozen angry faces chasing and biting a twisted and strange face.After a long time, the yin qi dispersed and turned into servants, but the old ghost was no longer visible.As soon as the servants took shape, they were led by a middle-aged man-like servant and prostrate on the ground in front of Li Changan."

Dao Da Ende, I will not be unforgettable."

Li Changan didn't answer immediately, just rubbed the hilt of the sword, and was speechless.After a long time, I asked the leading ghost."

What's your name?""

The villain's name is Ma San.""

Ma San......"

Li Changan hesitated for a moment, "Have you ever harmed someone?"

”Na Ma San hurriedly replied: "So that the Taoist chief knows that this cave is the place where the earth and qi meet, and this tomb is arranged by a master.Although we are trapped here, we don't have to do the evil thing of greedy blood and food that harms people's lives.As for the old ghost, it is only because he is greedy by nature. ”Li Changan held the hilt of the sword and was silent.It is true that among these servant ghosts, there is only resentment, but no blood, and it seems that there is indeed no cannibalism.But under the mud and sand, who can be innocent?

Perhaps guessing what Li Changan was thinking, this Ma San said again: "But it is indeed difficult for me to get rid of my sins, and under the coercion of that old ghost, I have also committed evil consequences......

But we really don't have the intention of harming others!

If the Taoist chief lets me wait for a horse, we will definitely be committed to goodness, and even help passers-by within our ability. ”With that, he leaned down and bowed."

We only want to have this place, to preserve the remnants of the soul in this miserable world."

Alas!

The Taoist priest sighed faintly, and it was this that made him hesitate.It is impossible to say that these servants are completely innocent; But it would be unfair to attribute the consequences of sin to them.So......

To chop or not to chop?

There was another awkward silence.The ghosts were prostrate on the ground, the Taoist priest stood by the sword, and the woman was at a loss.After a long time, the Taoist priest stared at the group of ghosts and said slowly: "What if I say 'no'?

”"The Taoist is kind to me and reinvented, and we don't dare to do anything to the Taoist leader."

After all, that Ma San is another kowtow."

I can only dissipate my soul to prove my intentions, and ask the Taoist chief to make a decision.""

Why bother?"

Li Changan shook his head."

Why don't you fall into the Netherworld?""

The Taoist chief doesn't know."

Ma San raised his head and smiled bitterly, "We are the ghosts of the burial, and the Yin is also tied to the owner of the tomb, if the master does not enter the underworld, we will not be able to reincarnate." ”Tomb owner?

Yes, they have already eaten it."

This is really ......"

Li Changan was having a headache."

Bang bang bang!"

There was a banging on the door outside.This night, this haunted house ushered in a second visitor.
