That night, Xie Wangyan took Peacock and the remaining two people to the place where the dead people of Sifang Town were buried.
In order to prevent others from knowing about it, Xie Wangyan did not tell Senior Brother Yanlu about this——
In addition, there is Ye Qingxue, a thug, so there shouldn't be much of a problem.
Soon, the group of people bypassed the buildings in the village and came to an open space that looked very flat, with nothing around.
Xie Wangyan looked at the peacock and stared at him with big eyes and small eyes.
After a while, the peacock's voice sounded in his head——
'underground. ’
When Xie Wangyan heard this, he immediately looked at the ground under his feet. After stepping on it a few times, he felt something was wrong. He used his feet to slightly push away the soil above, and soon he saw a layer of templates below -
"Basement?" Xie Wangyan knelt down and looked at the board.
Meng Xiuyan always felt that something was wrong, "Didn't you say that the ever-bright lamp should be lit all night?" He looked at the ground, "Someone still needs to guard it to prevent the ever-bright lamp from extinguishing."
But this place doesn't look like anyone can stay.
If someone could face so many corpses hidden underground and stay there all night, that would be a very brave person.
The three of them obviously couldn't enter together at the same time. After some discussion, they decided to let Meng Xiuyan stay above to report the news, while Xie Wayan and Ye Qingxue temporarily entered the underground.
……
As soon as he jumped to the ground, Xie Yanyan immediately covered his nose.
The underground space doesn't look too small, and it doesn't look like... it can be completed in a short time, it will take at least a hundred years.
The entire underground space extends in all directions, and the place they are in seems to be just the entrance to a branch. As soon as Xie Wangyan entered the underground, he felt that the air was very turbid, with some stench that could not be dissipated.
He knew that since this was a place where dead people were kept, it would obviously not smell good.
Ye Qingxue frowned and looked at the space in front of her. Just when Xie Wangyan was about to move forward, she immediately grabbed him by the collar——
"Be careful."
He said, looking at the peacock in Xie Wangyan's arms, "Put it in the beast bag."
"Something's wrong here."
Xie Wangyan carefully explored for a while, but still couldn't find anything strange. But since Ye Qingxue said so, it was obvious that he had discovered something.
In order to prevent the peacock from having an accident, even though the other party kept protesting, he still stuffed it into the beast bag.
"Go first."
Ye Qingxue said as she took Xie Wangyan's wrist, "There should be more than just corpses in this place."
? More than that?
Ye Qingxue took out something similar to a luminous pearl from her arms, which could illuminate the surrounding space. When the surrounding light lit up, Xie Wangyan saw a room in front of him.
The two walked along and soon saw the corpses arranged neatly in the room.
These corpses were all placed on wooden boards, and there were ever-burning lamps placed at their heads and feet. At this time, there was enough lamp oil in the lamps and there was no intention of burning them out.
Xie Wangyan counted the corpses in the secret room and found that they were exactly the same number of people who died suddenly as rumored that day.
The smell in the whole space is not the smell of decay, but on the contrary, there is a very restrained incense... It makes people feel groggy the moment they step in.
Ye Qingxue walked over and opened the body closest to her.
He saw a well-dressed young man lying on it. His face was black and blue, and he had obviously been dead for some time.
He seemed to be extremely disgusted, so he took out the dagger he had used that day and cut off the other party's clothes. Xie Wangyan was about to say to Ye Qingxue to be careful, so as not to be noticed by the people in Sifang Town.
I fell into deep thought after seeing the upper body of the corpse exposed...
He looked at the huge scar on the opponent's shoulder in surprise, which was as big as a bowl. It looked like a scar left after someone cut it off with force.
"This is……"
Ye Qingxue didn't waste any time and directly opened up the remaining white cloth and cut off all the clothes of this group of people.
It was seen that these dead men and women all had huge scars on their bodies. Some were on their shoulders, some were even on their necks, and some were on their legs. Almost everyone had such marks on their bodies.
The ever-burning lamp was still burning... Xie Wangyan looked at the scars on these corpses and couldn't help but think of Butcher Zhang's fingers and tail hidden in the beams.
Ye Qingxue saw that the observation was almost the same, so he covered the corpses with white cloth again.
These corpses were without exception, and each of them had a very ferocious expression when they died, as if they had seen something extremely terrifying.
However, what Xie Huanyan couldn't understand the most was that none of the corpses showed signs of decay. Even the corpse from a month ago was still intact.
……
The two people quickly left the secret room.
Ye Qingxue glanced behind her with disgust, "The spices burned there are called soul-returning incense."
"...The soul-returning incense?" Xie Wangyan didn't expect that it was the soul-returning incense.
When the soul-returning incense in the world of cultivation is burned, it can keep the corpse from decaying for a long time.
But because of this, this thing is rare and rare. How come a mortal village in Sifang Town actually has such a thing?
"Maybe all the people in Sifang Town should die." Ye Qingxue smiled.
"The soul-reviving incense and the ever-burning lanterns are clearly meant to extend longevity."
"Human death is like a lamp extinguishing. As long as the ever-lasting lamp remains extinguished and the soul-returning incense is added, there will naturally be a way to extend life." He did not look back at the secret room, but looked at the underground space in front of him, "Maybe that There are other surprises inside.”
Xie Huanyan did not hesitate after hearing this, and walked directly deeper into the underground space with Ye Qingxue.
……
The two of them had just walked a few steps when they heard a sharp meow.
Xie Wangyan knew that this was the signal sent by Meng Xiuyan to the two of them - Ye Qingxue directly dragged him into the space near the right.
Then he immediately stuffed Ye Mingzhu into his arms.
The two of them stood in the secret room. Because of the darkness, even the monks had difficulty seeing the furnishings in the secret room. He wanted to raise his head to look around carefully, but Ye Qingxue covered his eyes in the next second.
"Don't look."
There was a light fragrance on Ye Qingxue's body, which slightly diluted the subtle stench around her.
Xie Wangyan could hear footsteps. Fortunately, the man came to check whether the ever-burning lamp was still burning and whether more lamp oil needed to be added. Seeing that nothing was abnormal, he did not dare to look any further and hurriedly left with the lamp in hand.
After the man left, Ye Qingxue let go of Xie Huayan.
Xie Wangyan just opened his eyes and found that Ye Qingxue had already taken out the Night Pearl——
He looked around the illuminated area.
Then I discovered rows of mummies standing in the corner of the secret room.
