MTL - After Rebirth, I Returned to Miaojiang to Inherit My Family Business-Chapter 237
While Su Xiaomi and Old Man Coffin were on the move, Master Lingyun stayed to guard against the Federation's problems, while Wu Rong and Hongxiu arrived in the Miao village. It's just that he didn't go to the evil Miao Village in Fengze Ghost Domain, but returned to the Wu Family Village.
The Miao Village is quiet and deserted, as old and quiet as a deserted city abandoned by modern times. There was a cold rain in the sky, and the river was still flowing, but no Dong girl would stand by the bridge with an umbrella. Everyone in the village disappeared, but the strange thing was that there was no trace of fighting in the village. The door of the stilted building is open, and the dishes and chopsticks on the bamboo table in the hall can be seen vaguely.
I can imagine that at dusk, people in the Wu family village stayed with their families as usual, having dinner happily, but were suddenly taken away by some mysterious force. They can't resist this kind of power at all, and they may even pass out as soon as they come into contact with it, and become unconscious.
Not the Badmiao, they don't have that power. Unlike the Holy Wedge Society, if they were so powerful, they would not have been counter-killed when the ghost king of Yangjiaping crossed the border before, and even their strongholds would have been taken away.
Wu Rong sensed the aura of the Great Tiankeng, which was extremely weak, seemingly absent. It seems to be right in front of you, but you can't find it everywhere, as if you are separated from the world in front of you.
separated by a layer.
Wu Rong thought of the world of Lao Miao Cave, a world that was exactly the same as the scenery in the village, but lacked color. When I returned to the Miao village to inherit the Gu seeds, Wu Rong had just been reborn not long ago, and had seen too many incredible things in this spiritually revived world, so I was not surprised that he could enter another world that can be said to coincide with reality through the bonfire in the village .
Looking at it now, the world where Lao Miao Cave is located can be called a special sinkhole, and the Wu Family Village is actually built in this sinkhole, but it has no sinkhole consciousness and no ghosts in it.
But without the awareness of tiankeng, and without ghosts, why does this tiankeng exist?
Lao Miao Cave, Gu Seed Inheritance, Witch Family Legend, Wushan Big Tiankeng.
A series of clues were quickly shifted and reorganized in Wu Rong's mind, and gradually connected into a line. Hong Xiu, who restrained her evil spirit, pushed the wheelchair and sent Wu Rong to the firepit in the middle of the village. There was no sacrifice, and the firepit, which was enough for ten people to embrace, was pitch black, and the stones were all blackened by smoke. The wheelchair finally stopped under the old maple tree beside the firepit.
Under the cold rain in early winter, all the emerald green maple leaves have turned red and yellow, looking like burning torches in the distance. This old tree grew beside the firepit when Wu Rong's mother was born, no one knows how old it is, the bark is rough and wrinkled.
How can you enter the world of Lao Miao Cave without the great witch of the Miao nationality to hold sacrifices?
When approaching this maple tree, the leaves rustled, and the Gu species that had been silent all this time moved slightly, Wu Rong somehow realized something. At the time of the sacrifice, the slaughter of pigs and cattle presided over by the big witch, the strange Miao dances and songs, stone statues, etc., were just to make the sacrifice more solemn. The key to entering that world is to burn the maple branches with flames.
Maple trees and butterflies play an important role in the ancient legends of the Miao people in southeastern Guizhou. The maple tree is the ancestor of all life, and the butterfly is called the mother by the Miao people. What burns in the sacrificial firepit are maple branches, and the Gu seeds are butterflies. Wu Rong took a branch from the maple tree, when the Zhengyang fire ignited and the maple branch was burning, the Gu species seemed to move, and the air in front of them rippled like water.
There is a faint double image in the world, and behind the transparent ripples is the familiar three-color world of gray, white and black. Wu Rong originally planned to enter by herself, but Hong Xiu finally took her with her after pleading.
After entering that world, the breath of Tiankeng became clearer. Others cannot perceive the difference between the unique smell of Tiankeng and the reality, just like they cannot distinguish the difference between the smell of snowflakes in Heilongjiang and snowflakes in Liaoning. Wu Rong couldn't do it before, but now his perception of the unique smell of Tiankeng has become more acute.
Follow your intuition and head towards the direction with the strongest breath in the Tiankeng, as expected, it is in the depths of Laomiao Cave. The cave was quiet and quiet, just like when Wu Rong first came. But the Gu worms that originally lived and multiplied in Lao Miao Cave disappeared without a trace. The black rock tarantula huddled in Wu Rong's sleeve, obviously revisiting its old place, but the emotions it sent were full of vigilance and hostility.
Unknown changes took place in Lao Miao Cave, it was not until the deepest cave of Lao Miao Cave, where the Gu seeds were, that Wu Rong finally saw clearly what happened in Lao Miao Cave.
In the cave, which is spacious enough for ten people to walk side by side, the ancient murals on the stone wall are still there, but the statue of the ancestor of the witch family on the most central stone wall is cracked, and a stone crack that can only be passed by one person penetrates her body, splitting her body. face, making the beautiful expression that was originally a quiet smile become weird and terrifying, half smiling, half crying.
The four Gu totems around her were also cracked, the white stone platform under the four Gu totems seemed to be polluted by something, it was filthy, and the pots of different textures that used to be used by the Gu king on the stone platform also disappeared , only piles of carbon-like pitch-black decaying particles remain, without any life fluctuations.
An inexplicable sadness came from the Gu species, and rippled in Wu Rong's heart. Lao Miao Cave is 'dying', and this strange world will soon be polluted, the key lies behind the crack in the statue of the ancestor of the Wu Family.
The crack is so narrow that wheelchairs cannot pass through it. Throwing down the wheelchair, Hongxiu whispered, "The subordinate surpasses", and picked him up with Wu Rong's tacit consent. One person and one ghost passed through the crack and came to the world behind the crack.
It is the space behind the Emiaozhai mine, the space with the altar, where the crack in the Wushan Tiankeng is located.
This is the real secret hidden by Wu Ma, the owner of the Evil Miao village. It is a secret that only the village owner and the great witch knew in the past. Thinking back to the time when Wu Rong sacrificed, the witch fused the Gu species in danger, and took charge of the Miao Village at the cost of leaving serious sequelae. And among the Emiao people who chose to cultivate ghost Gu and split into the ghost domain, the leader was Wu Ma's father, once the great witch in the village.
This branch has been a great witch in the village for generations, he took away this secret, and the one who chose to stay in the village, Bai Gu's father is his own brother, but he didn't know it. Both he and the witch stood up in a hurry, exhausted their efforts to stabilize the situation, and were unable to attack the traitors anymore. No one knows the secret behind the statue of the ancestor of the witch family in Lao Miao Cave except Wu Ma and Ge Lang.
Hongxiu detected the imprisoned people from Miao Village, rescued them, and sent them back to reality, but Wu Rong found the unconscious grandmother in a sarcophagus in the middle of the altar.
Grandma's breathing was weak, and she was placed in a narrow and dark sarcophagus. There were wounds on her hands, and there were residues left after blood dried up in the strange spells on the altar. Thanks to the fact that she used to cultivate spiritual Gu with blood, and she is old, and the energy in her blood is insufficient. While saving his own life, it also prevented the curse on Wu Rong from being too serious. But she was too old, and she had to be sent to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible.
Moreover, the role of the blood of the Wu family is not just to curse Wu Rong.
"Dirty, weak human beings are like worms parasitic in this world. They will rot and stink together with the past world. And their only role is to become sacrifices to the new world."
The visitor had a gentle voice and said with a smile: "Are you right, Mr. Wu Rong?"
"Tong Fu Yuan."
Putting the unconscious grandma behind her temporarily, Wu Rong straightened up, faced the visitor dressed as a priest, and said in a cold and firm tone:
"You are not human."
"what are you."
