Chapter 256 Cause
Chapter 256 Cause
In the story of Village Chief Kang, an incredible thing is unfolding.
"I'm afraid of death...very scared..." Village Chief Kang's eyes were trembling and his voice was trembling, "So, I agreed to it...I agreed to that voice."
"Then I discovered that it was really exchanged! My soul entered that child's body, and that child's soul was locked in a decaying, old, and dying body. He died for me..." < br>
Bai Yanliang and Yu Wenxuan looked at each other and saw the suspicion in each other's eyes.
Is this the power of a ghost?
No...impossible.
It is impossible for ghosts to trade and cooperate with humans. The ghosts in this world only have the purest malice. Maybe they can talk, confuse people, and deceive and mislead, but they will never really allow Village Chief Kang to continue indefinitely. life.
From Village Chief Kang's description, the voice he heard before he died was obviously rational and definitely not a ghost.
Could it be that key?
Can the key talk? Generated the key to self-awareness?
Even Bai Yanliang found all of this a little incredible.
"Then, what does it require of you?"
Bai Yanliang asked.
Village Chief Kang shuddered, and the rotten smell all over his body became stronger and stronger.
"Rules...it made me make a lot of strange rules...shrouds are hung in front of the door, the dead are buried with water, villagers cannot be exposed to sunlight for a long time, but at night, everyone must bathe in the moonlight..." Village Chief Kang can tell He was confused and frightened, but he was also happy because...if he followed that voice, he could live forever.
You can imagine how tempting this is for humans with short life spans.
"I am the village chief of every generation...I made these strange behaviors into village rules, and they have been passed down like this...until twelve years ago." Village Chief Kang's expression became very strange, as if he was afraid, but also As if unwilling to give up, "I am about to die again... I must change into a young body. At this time, a baby happened to be born..."
Village Chief Kang's eyes widened, as if he had seen the scene from that year again: "The Wu family's daughter-in-law came to me with her newborn child in her arms. I was filled with joy, but... when I saw that child, the child didn't appear for a long time. The voice appeared again. ”
Village Chief Kang was shaking all over, and his eyes were darting around in horror, "It...it said, enough, I was born..."
"That baby is it! It's the voice that first appeared in my head! It's a monster, a monster... It will kill me, eat me... So, I have to strike first, I have to... strike first …”
His mood was very strange, his face was ferocious and twisted, but he was so scared that his whole body was shaking like a sieve.
So that’s what happened.
The strange encounter of the old village chief three hundred years ago was the source of all the strangeness. Yu Wenxuan stared at him closely and said, "I have a question, what is your agreement with us? Why do you want Mrs. Wu to receive us? ?”
This time, Village Chief Kang did not answer. It would be better to say that he was unable to answer.
The life of this old "ancient man" has come to an end. His whole body exudes a strong aura of death, and there are even patches of corpses on his skin.
His mouth opened silently, and his dilated pupils were full of unwillingness and despair.
Bai Yanliang stretched out his fingers and put them against his carotid artery. Sure enough... this "immortal" person was completely dead.
Moreover, I don't know if it was because his "soul" had lived too long. After his sudden death, the body decayed at an alarming rate.
Just like a gambler who has overdrawn his future, he will be completely bankrupt at the end of the game and will never be able to recover...
"We should be the next bodies he finds. After all, there are no young people in this village anymore." Bai Yanliang answered Yu Wenxuan's question for Village Chief Kang. "Threats, intimidation, cajoling, deception... there are many methods, and it is not surprising that we have deceived a few young people."
Looking at Village Chief Kang who had turned into a pile of rotten bones, Bai Yanliang's expression did not fluctuate much.
This is a ruthless man, and his cooperation with that voice is tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger. But when that "weird" was born, Village Chief Kang didn't know whether he was too scared or too ruthless. In short, he made a series of actions. "Weird" made a decision that even he didn't expect.
sink it into the well.
Although this caused an outbreak of plague in the village and caused heavy casualties, it did delay its arrival in the world.
But... in this case, the appearance of a person seems extremely strange.
Kangkang.
After thinking about the whole logic, Kangkang should not have appeared. If Kangkang was the ghost born back then, then he had been living with the village chief day and night for so many years, and there was no reason to keep him alive.
Moreover, now there is an extremely weird baby lying next to the corpse of Village Chief Kang.
No matter which angle you look at it, it is the ghost baby back then. It just came out of the well and has never grown up.
So...where did Kangkang go?
Or is this terrible baby really just Kangkang getting smaller?
No matter how you look at it...Kangkang is a point that doesn't make sense.
Not only Bai Yanliang noticed this, but Yu Wenxuan also seemed to have discovered something wrong. However, they had no time to dwell on it now.
Because... the changes around here are still continuing.
It was obviously daytime just now, but the sky suddenly darkened, and a strange moon... appeared.
Bai Yanliang and the other three immediately hid in Village Chief Kang's house.
This village, under the moonlight, has become extremely terrifying.
Cracks began to appear in the earth, and a fishy, rotten smell came out of the cracks.
The three people covered their noses. They noticed that it was not just the earth that was undergoing changes, but also the houses... the walls, even the dark mountains, and the high sky...
Everything... was cracked.
Everything in front of me looked like the scene of the end of the world, full of obsolescence and dilapidation.
And there was no sound at all in this village, as if it had been vacant for many years...
"Is it causing trouble..." Yu Wenxuan stared at the baby lying in the moonlight, with a dangerous light flashing in his eyes.
Bai Yanliang didn't answer. He had his eyes closed and his brain was running wildly.
At this moment, dense footsteps suddenly sounded throughout the village!
Yu Wenxuan's expression changed, it was those villagers who had changed...
All the villagers who would undergo strange changes at night have now come out and carefully identified the location of the sound. Those damn monsters are running towards the village chief's house!
