Chapter 316 Graveyard Monsters
We walked to the Wang family's cemetery and saw a strange scene.
Logically speaking, the snow on the mountain is thick now, and the grave has been buried long ago. However, not only the grave is exposed here, but the snow around it has melted, revealing a large piece of weeds and branches, which looks desolate and weird.
This is a gentle slope, with about seven or eight graves from top to bottom. It seems that they are really the tomb of their ancestors. However, around this grave, there are a circle of fist-sized stones arranged in a strange pattern, some like Bagua diagrams, and some like many irregular symbols, which just surround the entire grave.
Sure enough, there were many stones. I asked Uncle Wang, what was going on? He stared at the surroundings and felt his legs tremble a little. He said that since the first two months of fighting, the elderly in his family have passed away one after another, and several new graves have been added here. However, it had not snowed at that time, and no one had made these stones. What's the matter with that?
Everyone also started to talk. I told them not to move around, and then walked up alone and observed around the cemetery.
The size of this grave looks quite large. At the top is a large tomb. The tombstone is engraved with the tomb of the ministers of the Wang Family Xianzu Palace. It should be the white-bearded old man. There are several graves on both sides, including new and old, some erected monuments, and some without erected monuments. The snow on the ground melted and was very wet and muddy. It looked like it was the season of spring in March, and the ice and snow melting. It seemed that there had just been a drizzle here.
But when I left the cemetery, there was still snow all over the mountains. As I looked at it, my heart suddenly moved and asked Uncle Wang, how many days has the most recent heavy snow in the mountain been around?
Wang Pang snatched by: "Three days, exactly three days. I remember that the gentleman I went to the county and I to treat my brother that day, it was snowing heavily."
I asked again: "The last time you came here, were there any of these stones?"
Uncle Wang said: "No, absolutely not. The last time we came, his grandfather passed away. Not only was there no stones, but there was not such heavy snow at that time."
I nodded. Judging from the current situation, someone must have been making trouble, and it has been recently, but I have just looked around the snow around the cemetery and there were no footprints left. This shows that the problem may be after Grandpa Wang Pang passed away and before the snow fell.
But the melting of snow here is also a strange thing. I stood in front of the cemetery and felt it felt that the temperature in the center of the cemetery seemed to be higher than the surroundings, but it should not be possible to melt the snow. That would be too strange unless there was a stove buried under their ancestral grave.
Just as I was thinking, I suddenly saw the land suddenly turning under a grave mound in front of me. Immediately afterwards, a red monster worm poked out from it, about the thickness of a finger, more than one foot long, like a snake, but more like a big earthworm.
I was shocked. Why did such a thing come out of this grave?
Others had already seen the monster worm, and they were immediately in an uproar. The monster worm seemed to hear the sound and was about to jump out. I hurriedly shouted: "Don't let this thing run away!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the monster worm was actually very fast and had already jumped to the periphery, and was about to escape from a person.
The man was about to hide, but after hearing my scream, the sickle in his hand seemed to be subconsciously swinging, and his head was pretty good. He heard a slight sound, and immediately cut the monster into two sections from the middle, and a yellow-green liquid sputtered out.
The monster worm fell to the ground with a click, and the two and a half of the bodies twisted on the ground and then slowly stopped moving. Everyone hurriedly surrounded the man, but the liquid splashed by the monster worm, and he ran forward for two steps and suddenly screamed, fell to the ground with a plop, and his body twitched violently.
Everyone was shocked, but no one dared to step forward. A scream spread out. No one knew what was wrong with him. I could see clearly, and hurriedly ran up. When I looked down, I saw that white foam had appeared on the corner of the man's mouth, his eyes were rolling, his face turned red, and his body was twitching.
This is a sign of poisoning. My heart sank. It's bad, I won't detoxify.
Uncle Wang was stunned by the side, and everyone was also making noise. Unexpectedly, the monster insect was so poisonous. In this winter, wearing such thick clothes, he could get poisoned so quickly.
I squatted down and checked, but the liquid from the monster splattered on his hands. At this time, his hands were swollen and purple-black.
Looking at this horrifying scene, I subconsciously remembered a story I saw in the Taboo Notes last night. I gritted my teeth and couldn't care about that much, let's try it.
I turned around and asked the person for a knife, and cut the man's clothes from the sleeve. His entire arm had already turned purple and black, and it was almost swollen and thicker. When I unbuttoned the clothes on my chest, I saw that my chest was covered with purple spots.
I put on the blood jade ring, and the taboo notes recorded that there is nothing in the Han family that can be harmed, and there is no water or fire that can be soaked, and there is no harm to swords and guns. All poisons are easy to resist.
The blood sting popped out, and without hesitation, I immediately stabbed the blood sting into the man's swollen shoulder and quickly stroked it down.
A dark blood line appeared from his arm, and what was flowing out was actually purple-black blood, and it had a pungent and strange smell, just like a dead smell?
What's even more strange is that after these purple and black blood flowed out, the blood jade ring immediately emitted a dark red light, which seemed to have completely absorbed the blood.
I was very surprised, but I had no time to think too much. I slashed directly onto the person's palm in one breath. The light of the blood jade ring gradually turned purple and black, but in just a moment, it turned dark red again. I put away the blood thorn and looked at it again. The man's arm gradually swelled as the dirty blood flowed out, and the blood line on his arm had also turned red.
I secretly breathed a sigh of relief. I didn't expect that the blood jade ring really had such a magical effect. The process from black to red just now must be the blood jade ring slowly converting poisonous blood.
Seeing that the arm was not seriously injured, I stabbed the man in the chest with blood a few more times. Soon, the purple spots gradually disappeared.
This was so amazing. I felt secretly proud in my heart. I saw that the man had slowly calmed down, but he was still weak and weak, lying on the ground motionless, his chest was not moving, and he was still twitching slightly.
I guess the monster was too toxic just now, which had already hurt his nerve center. Although the poisonous blood had been discharged at this time, I still had to rest for a few days.
I asked the people next to me to lift him aside first, but no one dared to come forward. I had to tell everyone that the poison on his body had been relieved. As long as he bandaged his wound, he would take him back and take him back for a few days to recuperate. But be careful, he must burn his clothes stained with poisonous blood, and never touch him.
Then everyone carried him aside with fear and took off his clothes with all their might. Several people volunteered to carry him down the mountain and go back first.
Actually, I also know that these people are eager to leave this ghost place as soon as possible.
After doing all this, I had time to take a closer look at the dead monster worm and found that it was really something like an earthworm, with red body and body section by section. I couldn't tell which side was the head and which side was the tail.
The body of this monster worm was filled with a pungent corpse aura. I frowned and searched in my limited sea of consciousness, but I couldn't figure out what it was.
"Uncle Wang, have you discovered this strange thing in your cemetery?" I turned around and asked. Uncle Wang stood far away and didn't dare to get too close. He heard this and shook his head and said, "No, absolutely not. Our Wang family's ancestral tomb has been around for decades. It has been fine. No strange thing has ever happened. Why did such a thing suddenly come out?"
I thought, "Well, it seems that this thing should be related to your old man's rush to move, and there are these stones..." I leaned over and picked up a stone from the ground, weighed it in my hand, put it under my nose and smelled it, and it actually felt deadly.
"Uncle Wang, if you don't mind, I have to tell the truth." I looked up and said to Wang Pang's father.
"You say, you say." Uncle Wang kept nodding, looking at me with an anxious look on his face.
I pointed to the entire cemetery, drew a circle, and said, "There is no doubt that your old man is in a hurry to move now. He wants to leave this place, but usually, he should first give you dreams to your descendants and let you move for him. If I guess correctly, you didn't take it seriously, right?"
Uncle Wang looked embarrassed and stomped his feet and said, "Big nephew, you're really guessing it right. In the past two months, several people in my family, including me, dreamed that the old man said he was not living in the mountains and moving. At that time, we looked for the husband, but people said that this year's age is not good, so it's not advisable to move the grave. Besides, winter is about to begin. The ancestral tomb has been here for decades. It's not possible to complete such a big thing as a grave relocation in a short while. So, we thought, when the weather is warm next year, we'll find someone to take a good look, choose a day, find a place with good feng shui, and move the old man over. Who knew that something happened so soon..."
I nodded, "That's your fault. Since the old man has been urging you several times, no one has done it. Of course, he has figured out his own way. Look, this strange thing comes out of the grave, with a dead human flavor. This must be something that grows up from the corpse. Maybe your old man is disturbed by this thing and cannot live well, so he has to rush to move out."
Uncle Wang said with a confused look on his face: "But, my old man has been gone for decades. If this thing was eaten by the corpse, then the old man should have arranged to move a house long ago. Now there are still bones left and there are no corpses. What else can I move?"
Hey, what he said makes sense. I scratched my head. Could it be that his old man killed several people in his family to bury them here to feed the insects? But this is not right. If he did it on purpose, why would he move? Besides, those are his children and grandchildren, why did he do this?
I was a little confused about this problem, frowned, looked away, and wanted to find clues around me, but at this moment, a ball of snow suddenly shook off from a pine tree not far away.
I subconsciously looked up and saw a black shadow flashing on the tree, as if I was about to jump into the distance.
