Monument of Life and Death

Chapter 163: Incense

Chapter 163 Incense smell

"Yu Xuan!"

Xiaolan's eyes were piercing, and she excitedly called Yuxuan's name.

Yuxuan, who was moving the table aside forcibly, stopped and stepped to Xiaolan's side in two steps.

"Did you find it?"

"Here, it's a bit strange here," Xiaolan squatted on the wall, grabbing something with both hands, "I'm pulling it, come and take a look, can you see it clearly?..."

The light is almost gone. This portable small flashlight has gone through too much, and it will soon run out of power.

Yuxuan watched hard with the last light.

It is also black here, and it is also black there.

"Uh..." Yuxuan's eyes widened, "It seems...it seems to be different from other places."

can only be recognized by the degree of black.

was grasped by Xiaolan with both hands, and prying up the opposite side of the wall panel a little bit, indeed revealing a deeper darkness.

Xiaolan actually lifted the wall panel directly? !

Yuxuan was stunned, but did not dare to show it at all.

"Really!" Xiaolan's bright eyes became more excited, and he held it with both hands fiercely, "Then this should be the door!"

Accompanied by the "crack" sound of the wooden structure being torn apart, a whole wall panel is like a fragile fabric that has been torn apart and left its original position.

Dust and wood chips were flying in the air.

"It's really a door." Xiaolan's curious voice came.

What kind of door is this!

Yuxuan desperately fanned away the dust in front of her.

What's the matter with this little girl.

Does it count as a door if you make a hole by yourself?

What’s more important is that this is not a hole-making process. This is clearly a violent demolition!

"Huh? There seems to be light inside."

Xiaolan’s words brought Yuxuan back to reality for the time being. Although this inexplicable strange power scared her, she felt very relieved to have such a person with her for some reason.

I saw a faint red light swaying in the hole (?) that should have been black.

Yuxuan's heart shrank instantly.

Breathing seems to be stuck.

"Xiaolan..." Yuxuan unconsciously grasped Xiaolan's hand and tried to pull her back to her side with a slight force.

"Huh?" Xiaolan turned her head, smiling warmly and patted the back of Yuxuan's hand, "Don't be afraid, I will protect you!"

"Can't you feel it?" Yuxuan retracted her hands in disbelief, and hugged her arms tightly, "It suddenly became cold all around, and there was a feeling of suffocation..."

"Ah..." Xiaolan looked at Yuxuan and muttered, "It seems a little bit."

Actually, I didn’t feel it at all.

"In this case, there must be a problem in there, let's go in now..."

After finishing speaking, before Yuxuan expressed her disagreement, Xiaolan plunged in.

The smell of candlelight.

In addition to the dust that I created, there seems to be fine paper dust floating in this room.

Yuxuan leaned close behind Xiaolan, and moved forward a little bit.

The blood-red candlelight brings a rare light to this space, although it is not strong.

Xiaolan narrowed his eyes, the space here was also very narrow, and the cramped hut was blocked in the middle by a black cloth and divided into two halves.

The smell of red light and incense ash all come from the other end of the black cloth.

Xiaolan and Yuxuan stepped on the wooden wallboard fragments on the ground and approached the black cloth.

"Hey? Is this the door?"

The concentrated Xiaolan was frightened by Yuxuan's words, and when she turned around, she saw Yuxuan pointing to the position next to the cave to signal to herself.

It turned out to be the original door of the cottage next to the "door" made by me.

was hiding behind the desk Yuxuan was about to move away.

"It's too cunning," Xiao Lan stamped her foot, "I was planning to use another door to confuse us."

Speaking and pulled Yu Xuan back to her with questioning eyes.

"Don't care about these details, Yuxuan, have you smelled this?"

Yuxuan sniffed hard.

"This smell is very familiar!"

Xiaolan's eyes lit up, "Where did you smell it? Who did you smell it?"

"It seems...like when my mother took me to the temple to worship Buddha when I was a child..." Yu Xuan recalled, raising her chin, "The smell in the temple...eh? Isn't this just the smell of incense?"

"Incense?"

Xiaolan bit her lower lip in confusion.

Why is there incense here?

Meng Fuling is enshrining something?

"You stand here and don't move, I'll take a look."

Xiaolan left Yuxuan at the end of the black cloth, and decided to take a look first.

Just taking a step, Yuxuan hurriedly posted it and shook her head aggrievedly.

Xiaolan probably understood what she meant.

"I know you are worried about me, then let's go in together, but you have to hide behind."

"It's not..." Yuxuan shook harder, "That air conditioner... that kind of very cold feeling is right there, let's not go... It seems dangerous..."

"Then we are here, are you standing here?"

Yuxuan didn't know what to say, but stubbornly grasped Xiaolan's arm.

"No matter how dangerous it is, can Meng Fuling be dangerous?"

"While he is not here, what are we waiting for?"

Yuxuan was a little moved, but still refused to let Xiaolan commit the risk alone. The two were close to each other and slowly opened the black curtain.

The red flickering candle light lit up the pitch black.

Everything over there came into view.

A white candle stands alone in the center of the line of sight.

is erected on a huge platform.

This platform seems to be a bed, which is wider than ordinary beds. The stone bed occupies almost the entire space. The gray cement color makes the bed look cold.

doesn’t even look like a bed.

But why does it seem to be a bed?

Because a thin and pale person, like a corpse, lies motionless on it.

And the white candle was placed in front of his head.

As soon as the black curtain was lifted, this scene appeared in front of my eyes.

was so scared that Yuxuan immediately pulled the black curtain back.

"You respond very quickly."

"Someone! Someone!" Yuxuan shook Xiaolan's arm vigorously, her big eyes almost falling out.

"Hmm...Yes..."

Xiaolan nodded, making a gesture to open the curtain again.

How could be so calm? !

This is not normal!

Yuxuan was already wondering whether Xiaolan was calm and calm or simply unresponsive.

"Don't worry, if a bad guy had done something early," Xiaolan opened the curtain again, "the dead and the living have nothing to fear, they are better than bad guys."

Xiaolan stepped into the area illuminated by candlelight.

Yuxuan didn't dare to let go, she also sneaked in.

Why is there another person in Meng Fuling’s lair?

Two people, four eyes, curiously focused on that person.

Yuxuan covered her mouth in shock.

It was pale, and had lost his blood-colored face and body.

My eyes closed tightly, and the corners of his mouth fell stiffly.

Without a trace of movement, he lost all his vitality.

This is indeed a dead body.

The two noticed his face.

Yuxuan yelled dryly

Xiaolan also frowned and groaned deeply.
