White Bone Monkey King

Is the body in the new coffin from the Zhang family in Lingqian Township?

The result Li Huwei said was like throwing a rock into a calm lake, causing thousands of waves to rise.

Everyone confirmed again and again, and Li Huanwei was very sure that he would not admit the wrong person.

The old man's body in the coffin is the old man of the Zhang family, the old father of Mr. He and his aunt Zhang. He followed the He family to Lingqian Township several times during the holidays, so he will never identify the wrong person.

Jin An asked Li Huwei to identify the other deceased people in the new coffins. Are they also from the Zhang family?

Li Huwei shook his head and said that he didn't know many Zhang family members. He only knew a few direct descendants of the Zhang family. He only recognized the old man of the Zhang family in this stone house.

So under the leadership of Jin An, a group of five people began to pry the coffin lid from house to house. The old lady of the Zhang family, Zhang's uncle and aunt, Zhang's brothers and sisters... more and more Zhang family members began to be identified by Li Weiwei.

The news surprised everyone.

what does that mean?

This means that the more than 100 people who disappeared in the Zhang family's mansion in Lingqian Township did not enter the Zhang family's belly... and then think about it, the Zhang family's mansion seems to have been deliberately cleaned, as if someone was deliberately cleaning it. Hiding the secrets in the Zhang family's mansion, Jin An immediately thought of those antique dealers.

Jin An expressed his conjecture, but there was one question that didn't make sense. There were more than a hundred people in the Zhang family's mansion. How could so many corpses be transported to Taoyuan Village without anyone noticing?

"The new headmaster, Pindao has observed the corpses in these new coffins. He found that each of their shoes and trouser legs were stained with a lot of mud. These corpses should have fallen to the ground. What the new headmaster said There should be a corpse exorcist among the antique dealers. Maybe these corpses came to Taoyuan Village on their own."

Corpses walking at night?

How did you hide it from everyone?

Li Weiwei's eyes widened and he called me mother. There were so many corpses walking at night. It was despicable to think about it. What if we met a living person, and how could a whole corpse be left behind?

When Jin An heard this, his heart moved. He raised his hand and scraped off a layer of hardened black mud on the upper part of the corpse's shoes. Then, under Li Weiwei's astonished admiration, Jin An put the black mud in front of his nose and smelled it. smell.

Although these black sludges often accompany the surface of corpses and have long been covered by corpse air, yin air, and rotten air. Fortunately, Jin An is a martial arts practitioner and his five senses are not as sensitive as ordinary people. He can still smell something from these black sludges. Special smell.

Jin An's eyes turned cold: "There is a rotten smell of fish, shrimp and aquatic plants in this mud. This black mud is river mud. The Zhang family should have been driven into Taoyuan Village through the water channel by the exorcists. "

After listening to Jin An's words, the old Taoist priest and Li Wei also scraped off a layer of mud from the surface of the corpse and put it in front of their noses to smell it. Naturally, they didn't smell anything.

"The water in Taoyuan Village is probably very deep. Come on, let's continue searching deeper into Taoyuan Village and see if we find anything?"

"We still haven't figured out why we haven't encountered a headless corpse feast in Taoyuan Village for so long!"

After Jin An finished speaking, he led everyone to continue walking deeper into Taoyuan Village.

As Jin An and the others walked along, everyone looked solemn and vigilant, worried that a sudden attack by a group of headless corpses would occur. On the contrary, Guard Li was nervous and excited all the way, looking here and there and touching here and there.

I am curious about this headless village, it is very strange.

"New Headmaster, I don't know whether to say something or not. There seems to be something wrong with your friend." Looking at Guard Li who was not afraid of getting into trouble along the way, Yu Youzi quietly walked to Jin An and said.

Hearing this, Jin An glanced at Guard Li who was looking at a collapsed stone house. Even the door of the collapsed stone house was missing. The doorway was pitch black, and a few rotting coffins could be faintly seen. This book Li Huwei was not afraid of the eerie midnight atmosphere at all. Jin An nodded with deep sympathy: "Uncle Master, Li Huwei's brain circuit is indeed different from ordinary people."

He only wants to kill evil and fantasizes about coming to the Headless Village to become the Headless Corpse King. This is a big-hearted person. Can he be a normal person?

Even if it is not neurosis, it is better than neurosis.

At this time, suddenly!

Dong Dong——

Dong Dong——

In the dead village with mass graves at night, a strange rattling sound suddenly sounded inexplicably, like the sound of someone shaking a rattle in the dead village at night?

At first it was still a faint sound, but as we went deeper, the sound started to get louder and louder. The sound of this rattle seems to have a kind of demonic quality, filling the ears like a demonic sound, making people's hearts beat faster and making them feel inexplicably irritated.

Um? Where did the rattle sound come from?

Everyone was alert.

The deeper you go into Taoyuan Village, the more weird things it becomes.

"Taoist Master Jin'an, look in front of us. Is there anything floating in the sky? Could it be the heads from the headless village floating in the sky?"

Li Huwei was the first to notice new movements in the village. He ran back to Jin An and others with a squeak, and said nervously with a desire to survive.

Everyone looked in the direction Li Huwei said.

Under the dark night sky, under the dim moonlight, I saw some black shadow floating in the sky. The black shadow kept circling back and forth in the void, and the sound of the rattle came from that direction.

When he encountered some black shadow floating in the sky in Wutou Village, Jin An mistakenly thought it was some kind of flying head barbarian at first, but when he took a closer look, he saw that it was not some flying head barbarian, but a flag hanging high on the flagpole. The drum above is spinning in the night sky.

Every time the drum rotates, there is a thumping sound, echoing over the deserted and desolate village, and the coldness spreads far away.

"drum?"

"Where did the drums come from in Taoyuan Village?"

"Even the stone houses and beams collapsed in the wind and rain. This Taoyuan Village looks like it has been abandoned for a long time. Even the cowhide drum has been damaged by the wind and rain, right? Could this be the work of the antique dealers? Is it something unclean?"

Everyone did not move forward rashly, but were fully vigilant and approached cautiously. As a result, when everyone saw the flag clearly, everyone's hair stood up and a chill ran down their backs.

As an ordinary person, Li Huwei almost screamed.

Fortunately, Yuyouzi beside him covered his mouth and nose in time.

Li Wewei, whose mouth and nose were covered by Yu Youzi, suddenly couldn't breathe, his face was black and blue from the cold, and he was trembling.

Taoist Priest Yu Youzi's body is so ice-cold.

Li Weiwei's face suddenly turned bitter.

Jin An naturally also noticed the abnormality on Li Huowei's face. Seeing that Li Huowei had calmed down, he continued to make Li Huwei suffer a little and kept quiet. Then, he turned his head and looked at the flags and drums in front of him.

Said it was a flag.

It’s no longer accurate.

Only when people got closer could they see clearly that under the thick darkness of the night, two complete human skins were peeled off and made into skin drums, hanging on the flagpole.

This is a human skin flag.

The human skin flags and drums have a man on one side and a woman on the other. The man has a crying expression and the woman has a laughing expression. After the skin is peeled off, a rope is put around the neck of the human skin and hung on the flagpole. It rotates in the dark night with the wind. His arms also swung left and right, swaying, and beat the opponent's leather drum behind him over and over again, making a sound like the rattle in his hand to attract business when a rural hawker sells things in the streets.

This is the truth about the black shadow that Jin An saw spinning in the void before.

There is also a human head sacrifice under the banner of human skin. Some of the human head sacrifices have completely rotted, leaving only withered and yellow bones. Many of the skulls are incomplete, and you can tell at a glance that they are several years old.

There are also heads that have not completely decomposed, and some heads are almost completely decomposed. They must have been dead for more than a month.

Some people's heads have just appeared as giants, probably just a week after their death.

There are not many human heads that have not yet completely decomposed.

Several people in Jin'an were silent for a while, thinking that these people were the victims who had recently walked back to Taoyuan Village during the rainy season, because he saw the dead head of Xue Xiong, the eldest son of the Xue family, on the top layer of the pile of heads.

"Supreme Taiyi is too late to save Ku Tianzun." The old Taoist priest bowed to Xue Xiong's rotting head.

"Little brother, those on the ground should be human head sacrifices."

"There is nothing better than hearing a ghost cry. There is nothing more ferocious than the female ghost in red. Mother, the most ferocious thing here is the male and female skin flag and drum hanging on the flagpole. That human skin flag and drum is the combination of two of the most vicious things. It’s all put together.”

However, when he got closer and saw more details of the human skin, the expression on the old Taoist priest's face turned angrily and he cursed: "It's so unconscionable! It's so heartbreaking!"

"Little brother, look at the facial expressions of the two men and women on the flag and drum, smiling and crying, so lifelike. Such a complete skinning technique should be to stun the person with medicine and tie him up while he is still alive, and then tie him up. A small slit is made on the person's forehead, and mercury is injected along the wound. Because the mercury is heavy, it will flow all the way down the skin, slowly separating the flesh and human skin layer by layer. This process is extremely cruel and slow, and the victim will It was very painful, and in the end, a complete piece of human skin was peeled off.”

Skin-picking is already inhumane, and this slow and torturous method of skin-picking is even more inhumane. The deceased suffered the most brutal torture during his lifetime, slowly feeling the pain of peeling off the flesh and skin, and finally saw his own human skin being separated with his own eyes. The pain is so painful that it bleeds dry and the person is tortured to death.

No wonder the old Taoist priest couldn't help but curse when he saw it.

"Head sacrifice, this technique does not seem to come from the Kangding Kingdom, but it seems to come from a foreign technique..." Yu Youzi looked at the male and female human skin flagpoles and said with a frown.

Yu Youzi recalled as he continued: "I heard my senior brother mention that the grassland tribes outside the pass like to use human heads as sacrifices."

"Every time they conquered a tribe, they would kill all the men in that tribe who were taller than a wheel, and then cut off their heads and put them in human head sacrifices. This was used to frighten the resistance of other tribes. It was also a kind of black witchcraft among grassland tribes. "

"Whenever the life of the grassland tribes is about to get hard, the grassland tribes will often raid the border towns of Kangding Kingdom before winter, burn, kill and loot food. Every time they plunder a village or a city, they will massacre the city. This is a display of Head sacrifice. Some people say that this prairie custom is that prairie tribes use black magic to sacrifice human souls to the patron saint in the sky, praying for good weather in the coming year, fat cattle, horses and sheep, and praying that the children and women in the tribe will not freeze to death again. In the cold winter on the grassland, it’s too cold because of the heavy wind and snow on the grassland.”

At this time, Jin An also noticed that the human skin on the human skin flags of men and women was filled with black, twisted and ugly evil curses.

This man and woman's skin flags and drums are standing in Taoyuan Village, banging like rattles, which is very strange in itself. Moreover, there are also human heads sacrificed under the human skin flags and drums. It seems that some evil sacrificial ceremony is being held.

Several people were walking and chatting.

They are all speculating that all the anomalies in Taoyuan Village are related to the strange man and woman in front of them.

"There seems to be something on the ground! Everyone stop!"

Jin An suddenly called everyone to stop.

Surrounded by men and women, a large net was woven by someone. The big net was made of ancient copper coins and red thread.

They are like stars, like a dragnet, surrounding men and women.

Because this large network of copper coins seems to have existed for a long time, buried under the soil by the wind and sand, it is easy to be ignored.

"Is this the Five Emperors Copper Coin that has passed through the hands of common people in five dynasties and has been stained with the luck of five dynasties?" The old Taoist priest knelt down to study it carefully and screamed in surprise.

At this time, Jin An was not in a hurry to approach the men's and women's leather flags and drums first. Several people gathered around the flagpole and began to clean up the floating soil on the ground. This was a large network painted on the ground that used a total of nearly a hundred Five Emperors copper coins.

The old Taoist priest became more and more astonished as he counted: "So many Five Emperors copper coins, this is a big deal that even an old Taoist has rarely seen in my life."

"With so many Five Emperors copper coins, I'm afraid it will take a lot of time to accumulate information."

"Those red lines are not ordinary red lines, they are cinnabar pure Yang red lines."

At this time, even Yu Youzi squatted down to study the large net of Five Emperors copper coins on the ground. As a result, Yu Youzi became more and more surprised as he looked at it: "This is the plum blossom buckle with round sky and square place that is unique to my Five Zang Taoism!"

Yuyouzi's eyes showed confusion and confusion.

Are there any ancestors or fellow disciples of Wu Zang Taoism who have ever been to Taoyuan Village to punish evil spirits?

This person should not be junior brother Yuyang.

Could it be that the eldest brother has been to Taoyuan Village before?

It's just that this dragnet was not completely completed in the end.

There was a hole in the net bag, and the ground was soaked red with a large area of ​​blood that had dried and turned black. The expert who tried to use the Five Emperors copper coins to use human skin as a barrier to trap the mischief was obviously about to complete it. At the last moment, it failed...

"Unfortunately, the dragnet was not completed in the end. When the last step was about to be completed, it fell short."

Yuyouzi said regretfully: "I don't know who this disciple of our Wu Zang Taoist sect who fell short in the end is? I don't know if he finally escaped from this extremely vicious place."

Why……

Jin An, the old Taoist priest, and Li Huwei looked at Yu Youzi squatting in front of the Five Emperors Coins, and they all sighed softly in their hearts.

Even after entering Taoyuan Village, he had been silent all the way, sharpening his sword in a daze, but he rarely turned his eyes to look at Jade Youzi.

"Uncle Master, my third junior brother and I are going to cut down the flag together."

Jin An and Jiajian were just about to chop down the flag, when something unexpected happened!

The cries and laughter of men and women, which had been floating in the wind and beating like a rattle, suddenly stopped in horror.
