Head?
Hearing these two words.
For a moment, everyone at the table was shocked.
It was as if there was an invisible pressure enveloping them, making them feel suffocated.
"Just a head and no body?"
Wu Sansheng frowned.
He had traveled extensively for so many years, but he had never encountered such a strange thing.
"Yes."
"They've already rotted into white bones."
"I was curious and went to take a look. I wasn't afraid that you would laugh at me. I came back and had nightmares for half a year.”
"Now that I think about it, I feel terrified.”
The old man picked up his tobacco pipe and smoked half a bag of tobacco before slowly recovering from his emotions.
"It should be the Skull Bone Sacrifice!"
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little silent, Zhou Mu said casually.
"Similar to Jing Guan?"
Wu Xie thought for a moment and guessed.
"Something like that. However, this kind of method was more common before the Qin Dynasty. Killing captives and slaves to be buried with the tomb owner was extremely cruel.”
"Yes, yes, it can't be wrong. At that time, the old man was close and heard the old professor mention something.”
The village chief seemed to have thought of something and echoed.
"What about after that, Old Master?"
Wu Sansheng did not dwell on this matter.
To him, the most important thing now was to figure out the aftermath of this matter.
If someone else had already taken the lead.
Their trip would be completely wasted.
Pan Zi and the others had obviously thought of this as well. They looked at the village chief in unison and did not say anything. Even their breathing subconsciously slowed down.
" More than a hundred heads. This is a big deal. Many people from the county have come to dig up the entire mountain and find the ancient tomb below, but..."
"But what?"
"Old Master, you should finish it in one breath. Don't keep me in suspense.”
"That's right. I'm almost dying of anxiety.”
The hearts of the group were almost in their throats, but the old man was neither fast nor slow. He picked up his pipe and smoked a few more times before waving his hand and continuing.
"But something happened a few days later."
"I heard that several young men died down there.”
"Although this matter was concealed, there are no walls in the world that are completely airtight. It was said that he died in an extremely tragic manner. His flesh and blood were gone, and when he was brought out, only bones were left.”
"The county is afraid that if this continues, there will be more accidents, so they can only get people to refill the mountain soil.”
"After that, it was over."
White bones?
After listening to the old man's words.
The few of them looked at each other.
He couldn't figure out what had appeared below that could actually swallow a living person until only bones were left.
However, Zhou Mu was well aware of it.
The King of Lu's palace was filled with corpses. Unless it was Zhang Qiling who had the Kylin's blood, it would be difficult to escape death if he rushed in.
Hu ~
She heard him say that it was over.
The few of them heaved a sigh of relief.
"Old Master, there's something else. I don't know if I should ask.”
Wu Sansheng clinked glasses with him and laughed.
"If there's anything, just ask directly.”
"If this old man knows, he definitely won't hide it.”
Hearing this, Wu Sansheng couldn't help but give him a thumbs up." How did you know about our backgrounds?”
He had been hiding these words in his heart for a while.
Logically speaking, he had been in the martial world for more than twenty years.
Few people could compare to his ability to speak human words in front of people and speak nonsense in front of ghosts.
Moreover, he had not left any flaws along the way.
Why was he able to see through it with a single glance?
He really couldn't understand what the problem was.
Who knew that the moment he asked, the old man could not help but laugh out loud.
Seeing this.
Not only Wu Sansheng.
Wu Xie, Pan Zi, and the others were also confused.
"Old Master, don't just smile. Tell us what happened so that we can remember.”
The village chief took the tobacco pipe and knocked it on the table leg a few times.
"You can't blame me for seeing through this.”
"Ever since that cauldron was dug out, countless waves of foreigners like you have come over these years.”
"Some say they're here for inspection, some say they're here to pick up mountain treasures, some are here for tourism, and some are here to build houses.”
"I've lived here my entire life. How can I not know what's in the mountains?”
The village chief snorted coldly." Bullsh * t mountain delicacies. Why didn't they come a few years ago? Why do they have to run away in groups now?”
"They're obviously here for that ancient tomb.”
After hearing what he said.
Only then did they realize.
For a moment, he could not help but feel a little awkward.
Especially Wu Sansheng, whose face reddened.
When he thought about how the performance he thought was flawless was just a farce in the old master's eyes, he wanted to dig a hole and bury himself in it.
"I don't care where you came from.”
"Have a good sleep tonight and go back tomorrow morning. That place is evil.”
The village chief advised seriously.
However…
This time, no one made a sound.
It took him a lot of effort to rush all the way from Hangzhou.
If he were to go home because of a sentence.
Wasn't this too childish?
"Alright, Old Master, we'll consider it carefully.”
In the end, it was Wu Sansheng who spoke.
Hearing what he meant.
The village chief knew that they were determined to go and would not turn back until they hit the south wall.
He sighed." In that case, it's getting late. You guys should go back and rest early.”
"If you need anything, just come to my house to get it.”
"Then, Old Master, we'll take our leave first.”
Since he had already sent the guests off.
It was not good for the group to stay any longer.
They all stood up and bade farewell.
Pan Zi, who was walking at the back, casually took out a stack of hundred-yuan bills from his wallet. He estimated that there were at least a thousand yuan.
How could the old man dare to take it?
The village was poor, and this money was enough for the family to live for several months.
He had just eaten a meal and said a few words of nonsense.
How could it be worth this money?
"Old Master, take it. Help us get some more game. We'll come back to the village to eat in a few days. This money will be your salary.”
Wu Sansheng wouldn't care about such a small amount of money.
He stuffed the money into the village chief's pocket.
"Alright, this old man will go into the mountains to look for it tomorrow. I guarantee that you will have enough to eat.”
He sent them downstairs.
Just as he was about to leave the courtyard.
Wu Sansheng suddenly turned around.
"Old Master, let me ask you something else. What happened to those who came later?”
"They're either dead or crazy. There aren't many who survived.”
