Chapter 44 The Blood-sucking Parchment
Time passed like this, minute by minute, night fell quickly, and the sky slowly became dark. I sat on the steps outside Sanqing Hall, staring blankly at the cardboard box carrying sin in front of me.
Taoist Priest Changyun did not choose to talk to me, but sat alone in the main hall and silently recited Taoism.
Standing up, I carried the cardboard box and walked towards a guest room next to me. Staying here tonight, my mood finally calmed down a little bit, at least I won't experience any more scary scenes tonight. I opened the door.
The door and the inside of the room are the same as when I first came here. The whole room is in a plain color, which still gives people a very simple feeling.
Putting the cardboard box on the small table next to the bed, I sat on the edge of the bed and began to look through the contents of the box. The bloody photos appeared in front of me again. Taking a deep breath, I picked up the box
I began to observe the photos carefully. The scenes in the photos were so shocking.
"Pindao has made dinner, please come out and have some."
Taoist priest Changyun's voice rang out in the yard. I responded quickly, threw the photos back into the cardboard box and ran out of the yard. Outside the yard, Taoist priest Changyun was standing at the door of the Taoist temple. I saw
I came out, pointed with my right hand to the door, then turned around and walked out. I also quickly followed out. After crossing the door, I saw a small table on the green brick path outside the door, and the small table
There are two small stools placed next to it. Above the table, two steaming bowls of some noodles are placed there.
After seeing me, Taoist Master Changyun quickly asked me to sit down, and then placed the chopsticks in his hands on the bowl in front of me.
"Pindao usually eats relatively simple meals, so Yuanzhu will just make do with two bites."
I waved my hand quickly, then picked up the chopsticks and started to devour it. It had been 12 hours since I last had a hot dinner, and the vegetarian noodles in front of me now, without any meat or fishy ingredients, seemed like nothing to me.
It can be regarded as a delicacy in the world.
Soon, not a drop of soup was left in the bowl in front of me. Putting the chopsticks on the bowl again, I looked at Taoist Changyun. After feeling my gaze, Taoist Changyun also stopped.
The movements in his hands, and then he looked at me quietly.
"Master, do you have anything else you want to ask?"
I nodded and then said:
"Does the Taoist think that I can escape the trial in two days' time without any damage?"
Taoist priest Changyun raised his head and looked at the sky. After a few seconds, he lowered his head and looked at me.
"The secret is unpredictable. However, based on the things you have mastered now, you have no chance of success. But the secret has been deceived, and it is not possible to draw a premature conclusion yet."
Hearing this, I let out a long sigh, put the bowls and chopsticks into the Taoist temple, and then returned to the previous room. I sat on the edge of the bed, picked up the pile of photos, and started to look through each photo one by one.
The contents were roughly the same, and they were all real photos of the corpses of various victims. Putting the photos beside the bed, I picked up the book with a big red cover. But no matter how I looked at it, I couldn't tell from the outside.
The mystery of this book. Maybe there are some unknown secrets recorded in this book, but now I don’t have the key, and I can’t open the lock on the cover of this book by external force alone.
My eyes moved, and I saw Wu Jian's diary in the box again and the book made of animal skin that turned red when exposed to blood. Holding it in my hand, I felt a very tender and smooth feeling on my fingertips.
Touch. Raising my hand, I slowly opened the book, but it was the same as when I first flipped through it. It was blank without any writing. But as I flipped through it, I suddenly saw a few pages above.
Stained with brownish-red patches, when he brought it close to his nose, the smell of blood hit his nostrils.
Is this blood? Looking at the blood spots, I hesitated for a long time, then gritted my teeth, took out a piece of broken glass that had not been cleaned from the box, and slid it towards the index finger of my left hand, feeling a pain
A feeling came from my fingertips, and slowly, blood seeped out from the scratched area. I quickly turned the picture album in my hand to the first page, and then let the blood on my fingers flow to it.
The moment the blood touched the page, I suddenly discovered that a few small words slowly emerged on that page. Seeing this, I quickly squeezed out a few more drops of blood and dripped them on it, and then used the fingers of my right hand to
Slowly smoothing out the blood, until the entire page was soaked with donated blood, all the words on the paper emerged. So, I looked at it carefully and saw that it read:
"Are you afraid of death? Don't panic. When you open that book, that's when you really get a glimpse of the true meaning of death and life. By then, you will be the creator of death and joy. That is a book
A suicide note is also a great gift from the messenger of hell to you."
After reading this sentence, I fell into deep thought. What exactly did this sentence want to tell me? Which book was it? Suddenly, my eyes stopped at the big red cover that I had just placed next to the bed.
book. Could it be that this sentence is talking about this book?
Without hesitation, I turned over the first page and dripped the blood from my fingertips on it again, only to see a few more words appear on it:
"He died..."
Just when I was about to continue dripping blood on the page, the door was suddenly pushed open. I looked up suddenly, only to see Taoist Chang Yun standing at the door, staring directly at my hand.
book, and the expression on his face finally changed.
"This is... the cursed book! Why is it in your hand?"
Without stopping, I saw Taoist Priest Changyun walking towards me, and then he stared at the book in my hand and my fingers that were bleeding.
"Do you know what will happen if you sacrifice this book now?"
Looking at Taoist Changyun, I looked confused, then shook my head.
"It will bring bad luck, bad luck, and extremely terrifying things."
I was immediately shocked. Taoist Changyun was very powerful, and the extremely terrifying things he said from his mouth, I couldn’t imagine what it would be like. But at this moment, I have deeply realized the seriousness of the matter.
sex.
Seeing that I didn't understand why, Taoist Changyun's expression gradually softened. He sat by the bed, took the parchment in my hand and threw it into the box. After about half a minute of silence, he slowly spoke.
:
"I have been the only one since this Taoist temple was first built, and there is a reason why this Taoist temple was built here. And among the many reasons, the biggest one is that the place where the Taoist temple was built is
It is within the boundaries of Yongan Paradise."
Looking at Taoist Changyun, I finally asked the question in my mind:
"Taoist Priest, what exactly is Yong'an Paradise? Why is everyone so shy about this place?"
Taoist priest Changyun sighed, and then slowly spoke:
"It won't do you any good to tell you these things. But I have a piece of advice. You must not go near the depths of Yong'an Paradise in the future. The horrors there are far beyond what ordinary people can imagine."
After hearing this, Taoist Changyun's words really refreshed my previous understanding of Yong'an Paradise. I didn't expect that it is such an ordinary-looking place, and even just looking at the name, I might mistakenly think that it is an amusement park.
