Nightmare Attack
v3 Chapter 961: cursed land
The latest website: It was the missing Jiang Zhao. He was hanged from the ceiling by a rope. It was not clear whether it was a coincidence or not. At this moment, he lowered his head, and his blood-red eyes were just staring at Miao Qing's face.
His eyes were full of despair and resentment, as if asking why the person who died was himself.
"Jiang Zhao..." Bai Xiaojie raised her head to see this scene, her body couldn't help trembling.
Ouyang Huanbin was sitting on the ground, looking up at the corpse hanging on the high place, a terrifying chill came from all directions and enveloped him, and he hadn't recovered from the attack just now.
Miao Qing glanced around, and suddenly found that there were many books scattered on the top of the bookshelf, and several books were stacked crookedly together. With reference to the height of Jiang Zhao's hanging, and the position of the stacked books, he had a strange guess in his heart. .
Jiang Zhao first climbed to the top of the bookshelf, then stepped on the stack of books and hanged himself.
In the struggle, he kicked down the stack of books again, which is why this scene is in front of him.
After coming down, he told everyone what he saw and his guesses. Jiang Cheng took the initiative to climb up to confirm the clues. What he saw was consistent with what Miao Qing described.
"Jiang Zhao climbed up through this ladder." Jiang Cheng swiped his fingers on the ladder, which was covered with dust, obviously it had been here for a long time, and there were clear shoe prints on the ladder when irradiated with light.
Fatty's expression became unnatural when he heard the words, "So the woman he saw..." He looked at Ouyang Huanbin out of the corner of his eye, and saw that the other party looked lost, and he didn't say the rest.
According to Ouyang Huanbin's previous description, the woman in the black dress who was stepping on the ladder put her toes on her toes and stacked the books one by one on the top of the bookshelf, and Jiang Zhao was hanged by stepping on the books stacked by the woman.
This bizarre way of killing people is disturbing.
Bai Xiaojie hesitated for a while, then said with a pale face: "There is a saying in my hometown that those who choose to hang themselves are bewitched by those unclean things. You have heard of the water ghost grabbing a substitute, and it is similar to this."
"Those... those unclean things will find things to put on the feet of those who are going to hang themselves. As long as you step on these things, it means that you agree with the other party. After you die, you must give up the place for reincarnation. If you want to be reincarnated, you must lure the next person to hang yourself." Bai Xiaojie's voice became weaker as she spoke.
"Ghost footsteps." Jiang Cheng frowned slightly, "I've heard this statement before."
"I said... Do we want to put him down." Fatty focused on Jiang Zhao's corpse. A corpse was hanging above their heads. He felt uncomfortable all over, and it was pitch black.
When Liu Hui raised her phone and illuminated the corpse again, Ouyang Huanbin, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, screamed and fell to the ground again.
At some point, Jiang Zhao's body actually turned in a different direction. At this time, his protruding eyes were turning down strangely, facing Ouyang Huanbin's position, as if he could not rest assured.
Fatty's eyes were sharp, and he noticed at a glance that the clothes in front of Jiang Zhao were bulging, as if stuffed with something. Jiang Cheng asked everyone to help him stare. He quickly climbed up the ladder, and after tearing off the clothes of the corpse, a book fell.
Jiang Cheng reacted quickly and caught it.
The outside of the book is covered with a black hard shell, and the pages are yellowish when viewed from the side, which has a sense of age.
It is unlikely that the ghost will put a book in his clothes after killing Jiang Zhao, so Jiang Cheng speculates that this book was found by Jiang Zhao before his death, and there are clues in it. end.
"What is written in the book?" Bai Xiaojie asked curiously while taking advantage of her neck.
Jiang Cheng put away the book, and didn't mean to open it, "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, let's leave first." After speaking, he looked at Ouyang Huanbin, "It's your master after all, you're a master and apprentice, do you want to go up and collect his corpse. "
Ouyang Huanbin was frightened for a long time, but he didn't want to end up with a ruthless name in front of everyone, so he was ruthless, knelt down in front of Jiang Zhao's corpse, kowtowed three times, and said in a sad tone. : "The master is above, it's not that the disciple is unfilial, it's really more than enough but not enough, I believe your old man can understand."
Fatty looked up at the corpse, thinking that this time the master was really there.
Huai Yi originally planned to kill this old guy, but now that he is dead, it is a matter of his mind, "Let's go quickly, this old guy has a small mind, don't cheat for a while."
Ouyang Huanbin's face was full of grief, as if he didn't hear what Huai Yi said, he stood up and said, "Let's... let's go." He felt a little guilty.
I don't know if it was because of Jiang Zhao's light, but the way out was smooth. After stepping out of the library gate, Jiang Cheng opened the book, which recorded the history of this town and various events that happened.
It is also from this book that everyone finally confirmed the name of the manor.
"Dakrossa Manor..."
Liu Hui stared at the line of bold words on the top of the book. There was a line of small words under the eye-catching title. The font seemed to have been soaked in water, and it was a little blurred. "Liu Hui said in a low voice.
In this way, the history of Dakorossa's manor is gradually presented in front of everyone. The person who wrote the book only wrote the name of the manor in the title, and used words such as the cursed land or the witch's cemetery in the entire narrative. describe it.
The book records a tragedy that happened in Dakorossa Manor many years ago.
The Pope at that time issued an edict saying that the witches must never be forgiven. They were heinous and shameless. The frequent natural and man-made disasters at that time~lightnovelpub.net~ were all related to them. The land they walked on could not be cultivated, and the The springs dried up, and all the clergy were called in to take part in the suppression of the witches.
In this vigorous extermination operation against witches, a large number of witches were captured, and crazy people stuffed wood chips into their mouths, and then sewed their mouths with fine linen rope, so that they would not be caught by them. Cursed with the most filthy spells.
Then they were hanged in groups from trees, and crows pecked at their rotting corpses.
Others would be burned, and thick black smoke could be seen for miles.
And this kind of tragedy was also being staged in the town at the same time. At that time, the surviving witch hid in XZ and lived a life of fear, maybe she would be caught and hanged tomorrow.
At that time, the owner of Dakorossa Manor sympathized with these witches and kept many witches in the manor in private.
But it didn't take long, and I don't know who leaked the news. Crazy people rushed into the manor and seized the owner of the manor. After some torture and torture, they hanged him and the witches hiding in the manor from a tree.
