Chapter 469 Number of people
"Is it the demon hunter who lured away the people I sent to follow you?" Zou Jingping asked.
Yang Shan smiled sheepishly and said, "Yes."
"What's the name of that demon catcher?" Tang Su asked.
This was the first time Tang Su spoke out after Yang Shan woke up.
Yang Shan said: "His name is Qiu Hu, and I call him Lord Tiger." He saw Tang Su's thoughtful expression and asked, "Why, does he have a problem?"
Tang Su shook his head and said, "No, You can continue talking."
"Okay," Yang Shan collected his thoughts and said, "After I entered the secret passage, I found that the secret passage was very different from the last time, and there were some weird things appearing on the ground from time to time. pattern, I wanted to give up at that time. When I was walking back, a vine tripped me down. "
"I am very sure that when I walked over, there were no vines on the ground. . I immediately rolled to the other side, stood up, and ran as hard as I could toward the exit, but as I ran, I found that I was lost. I ran to a very strange place. I mustered up the courage to look behind me. I took a quick look and saw that there were no vines chasing me."
"The place was very humid and pulsating, like a living thing. I had to muster the courage to move forward. After walking for an unknown period of time, I heard. There was a sound of rustling behind me, and I looked back a few times, but there was nothing there. I thought I was too nervous. I took a few steps forward, and the gods made me look back again, and I saw a stick. I was startled by the vines hanging down from above, and then ran forward as hard as I could.”
"The rustling sound behind me became louder and louder, and the road under my feet became stranger and stranger. I knew I couldn't go any further, so I paid attention to the sound behind me. When I felt the vines approaching, I turned around and grabbed the vines with both hands. , press your body on it, and then use a hatchet to chop it."
"And I found that it is a bit stupid. As long as you don't move, it can't actually detect you. Keeping this in mind, he moved back while cutting it."
"Then..." Yang Shan paused and said, "I finished cutting the vines, and I don't know where the hatchet fell. And the scene around me changed again. I saw a tower, with a blue light flashing on the top of the tower. Somehow, I walked over, walked in, and walked into a piece of light. When I woke up again, , I heard many people shouting over there, he’s awake, he’s awake.”
“I tried to open my eyes and saw seven or eight little maids surrounding me, and some were running outside. The little maid I recognized was the one I rescued when I rescued my sister, so I quickly asked her where my sister was and where this place was."
"The little maid told me not to be anxious. , she said that my sister would be here soon, and then she asked me to drink water and eat snacks. I didn't dare to eat, so I just waited. After a while, my sister came, and we held our heads and cried. When I asked her what was going on, the little maids started shouting outside, as if someone was coming. "
"My sister hid me in a box, told me not to make a sound, and then ran out. I waited in the box for an unknown amount of time until my body became numb, and then my sister came back."
"Then she told me what happened to her after we separated. She said that she was in the nunnery, chanting scriptures and doing homework every day, and working in the vegetable garden behind her the rest of the time. This happened for a while Finally, a person came to the nunnery. After talking to the person for a while, the abbot told them that there was a complete solution to her illness."
"They were all very happy and got better while chanting sutras every day. Not long after, they were brought here. They found that the maids and servants who had been kidnapped before were all here and had been living here for a while, as well as people from the surrounding villages. , the host told them that the world will be in chaos when Prince Su is gone, and they will live here until the world is peaceful before going out. "My sister said that life here is very happy, and their illnesses have all been cured." I asked my sister why they ran out just now. My sister said that the person just came and he didn’t like outsiders coming here, so she asked me to hide for a while. After a few days, she would inform the host and ask him to go to that person. I was begged to let me stay here too."
Yang Shan lowered his voice, "After I agreed to stay, my sister was very happy. After a few days, she took me with her. I went to see the host, and the host agreed to her request. I felt something was wrong at that time, but I couldn't refuse it."
"What happened next? What happened next?" Li Chuan asked.
If Yang Shan was completely immersed in the illusion, there would not be such a strange scene when he peeled off the Devouring Sutra for him. He must have been through something else.
"Later..." Yang Shan was a little absent-minded. After a moment, he said: "After meeting the host, I had to chant sutras and do work every day. These two things are not difficult, and there are big questions every day. One day, I suddenly discovered that a villager I had gone to was missing. I even exchanged wild game for millet with him. I told my sister about this, but she didn’t remember that there was such a person here at all.” I counted the people here, one hundred and sixty-eight in total. I count them every few days. Once again. Until one day, a woman gave birth. On the day of delivery, my sister also went to help. After more than ten days, I went to count the number of people, but there were still 168 people, and the one with the smallest number was. Who, I can’t remember.”
“I knew it right then. Bai, this is not a place where I can stay for a long time. I want to take my sister and leave here. So one night, when my sister and I were alone, I told my sister that I went to the nunnery again, and the whole nunnery and the surrounding villages. Everything was massacred.”
"My sister was very frightened after hearing what I said, but she still agreed to come with me, and she said she would also take other people with her, and she convinced some people. The next night, we went to the place where daily sutras are chanted, and I At the same location, we found a passage. I knew that passage led to the outside world, and we walked in. "After the last person walked in, the host suddenly appeared and persuaded her to come with us. We walked together, but she refused, but she didn’t stop us. We walked in the passage for a long time, and I saw those weird patterns again, and then..."
Yang Shan rubbed his head and said: " Then, I heard someone say there was a fire, and the fire started. We ran forward desperately, and soon we couldn't breathe. They fainted one by one, and finally I fainted too. Later, I opened my eyes. , I saw you."
"How long do you think you have been in there?" Wen Guying asked.
"At least half a year." Yang Shan recalled the answer, and then he asked: "How long did I stay?"
"About twenty days," Wen Guying said.
