"There are so many people going to such a city, and they are all desperate to escape? But you said that the entry fee is fifty taels per person."
It's nothing to a wealthy family like theirs, but it's a big expense to the people and the world.
In addition to the three of them, there was another person on the table, Tengu. He knew Mingdai's identity and replied: "Most of them are this kind of people, but there are also people who come here to find special treasures. Although there are many monsters, ghosts and snakes, they also have some temperaments.
A strange master lives here in seclusion. I heard that Grandma Butterfly, the medical sage, is in Linzhou. Look, there are a few sickly faces over there, they are probably here because of her."
Experts all love this tune, and Ming Dai has also heard of it.
"Pack up some of these food and take them away later." Ming Jin suddenly said.
Tengu nodded cautiously, "There's nothing wrong with eating these."
Mingdai, who was eating steamed buns, froze for a moment, so after entering the city, she might not be able to find any good food?
Her eyes drifted towards the distant mountains where Linzhou City was located, which could not be fully seen in the dusk halo.
It is obviously a beautiful scene, but it always gives people an illusion and unreal feeling.
The outlines of the mountains changed in the dim light, like demonic phantoms.
————————
Gu... Gu...
Outside the dead wood forest outside the abandoned city of Linzhou, there are probably a lot of owls in the forest. There are only ten people in Mingjin's group, neither too few nor too many. As for the clothes, it's not strange. Look at that.
There are strange people with sheep heads hanging on their sides who look like monsters.
But aren’t these people afraid of something happening?
I'm really not afraid. It's just broken down into parts. There are so many people here, and many of them are actually led by the Tengu.
But even so, they did not dare to reveal their whereabouts easily.
"coming."
Tengu whispered, and several people heard a strange sound.
Change ringtone.
Densely packed but disorderly, everyone saw a group of strange people wearing strange robes in the dark night, with masks on their faces and black and red makeup.
They came over, holding prayer wheels with Buddhist characteristics in their hands, but they were very strange. There were blood-red skulls painted on the surface of the wheel. They were supposed to be offering sacrifices. There were no rules, and they were like the crazy dancing gods among the people.
It makes one's scalp feel numb.
Mingdai had never seen such a scene before, and she tried hard to control the fear in her heart. Suddenly her hand was held by Ming Jin, and the palm was warm and comforting. Then she calmed down and stabilized without revealing any flaws.
Many people here are very sophisticated and don't say anything, just waiting for them to come to them like dead people.
This group of people was separated from front to back, and there was a large gap in the middle. Those who were waiting to enter Linzhou City all walked in obediently, and Ming Jin and others were naturally among them.
Mysterious and weird.
In the past, no matter how mysterious it was, Ming Dai would not take it seriously. After all, she was born in an orthodox family and would have the least regard for these evil spirits. But now it is related to her father's safety, and she does not dare to take it lightly.
After paying money to a guide, everyone was led away by this group of weirdos, but they didn't want to enter the dead wood forest.
Detour?
Ming Jin guessed that there was an ambush in front of the city gate. If anyone forced his way in, he would die. The real entrance was somewhere else.
Sure enough, in the dark and ghostly forest of dead trees, in the tiny light of the lantern, Ming Jin turned around and saw an owl squatting on a tree trunk, but this owl was probably too big, big enough for a child...
wrong!
When Ming Jin's eyes widened slightly, he heard someone exclaim, "That looks like a child!"
A child wearing an owl quill grinned, showing an evil and cold smile to everyone, and then took out something from his back.
A severed hand, and then he put the severed hand in his mouth and chewed it, there was a crunching sound, and blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth.
Scary!!
Eat human flesh!!
Shaoyao was frightened, what the hell is this place.
Ming Dai's body froze, her nerves tightened, she withdrew her gaze, and subconsciously looked at Ming Jin, only to find that this woman was as calm as the indigenous people who have lived in this ghost place all year round.
Not wanting to lose to Ming Jin, Ming Dai also tried her best to ignore such horrific scenes.
Fortunately, such a scary owl child never appeared again, but Mingjin glanced around and caught a glimpse of one of them who always walked close to the trees on the roadside. She raised her eyebrows slightly, thoughtfully.
When passing by the swamp in the forest, four or five meters in front of Ming Jin and others, one of the people walking in front was suddenly grabbed by a muddy hand emerging from the swamp. "Ah!" he screamed.
, the man was dragged directly into the mud. The underground muddy water bubbled and squirmed a few times, but he made no sound.
"Dead...dead?"
Everyone was frightened and did not dare to leave. Of course, many people showed their weapons and some did not.
Tengu and the others were not. Because they were well-trained and had seen some tricks, they were not frightened by this battle. Mingjin and the others were also well protected by them and there was no danger at all, so they did not take action.
But...is this really a good thing?
At this time, Ming Jin's eyes quickly swept over those who were ringing the bells, as well as those who were entering the city. She found that these people were also observing them. Lowering her eyes, Ming Jin deliberately moved a step as if uneasy, and moved her wrists.
Touch the waist.
This action is in line with the emotions of ordinary people, but in the eyes of the tengu, it is a physical command - pretending to do something, showing weakness.
"Damn it, what are you doing! You are taking advantage of others!"
The Tengu roared angrily, and then he and his subordinates all drew their weapons and pointed them at the group of guides in front.
The weapons are average, the reactions are average, but there is some ferocity, and he is a charlatan.
Ming Jin heard that the person leading the way suddenly stopped turning the prayer wheel, but the person behind him did not stop, but instead sped up.
Then the person leading the way with his back to the front clicked in the eerie silence.
The neck...the neck is completely twisted!
Look straight at them.
Shaoyao and Mingdai: "...."
My eyes are going blind.
They were not the only ones who were frightened. Several of them shouted, but they all covered their mouths, leaving only a dead silence.
After a while, I didn’t know which guide made the sound.
"He's marking the road. Damn it. You guys, be good."
Then with a click, his head turned back and he continued walking.
But under the swamp next to it, where the person was dragged down just now, a head emerged from the muddy water, and slowly, most of the person stood in the swamp.
I don’t know if it’s a dead person or a monster killing people.
The group of people behind were so frightened that they dared to disobey, but they still refused to take back their weapons and walked the road tremblingly.
The clay figure's mouth was hooked and it gradually sank.
After walking for about a tea time, the guide in front finally stopped.
arrive?
Ming Jin looked at the large city wall stone in front of him. The stones were lumpy and very large. It was also night and it was impossible to see clearly.
"Hey, what is that person doing?"
Although it was unclear, there was indeed a man among the guides who was bent down and groping around in the grass, making rustling sounds. At first glance, he looked like a wild boar hiding in the grass.
But no one dared to laugh.
