MTL - Half Immortal-Chapter 38 Ankang Ancient Town (No. 17th)

According to the customs of Ankang Town, Hu Ayun is a girl chosen by the mountain god.

But Hu Ayu, who is a twin sister, knows that her sister had a relationship with her lover long before the wedding.

Hu Ayun almost naively believed that such a trivial thing as being chosen by the mountain **** would not happen to her, so she and her lover had long failed to obey the rules of the town and crossed over before they got married Bottom line.

The mountain **** is the belief that Ankang Town has continued for many generations, and Hu Ayun and Hu Ayu also firmly believed in it.

But when she became a sacrifice, Hu Ayun found that she didn't want to die. She didn't want to be skinned and boned into a cool white umbrella, and she was also afraid that the goddess would find out that her body was no longer pure, and she was afraid of angering the mountain god.

So after Hu Ayun was taken to the mountain temple, before the sacrificial ceremony, together with her lover, the two secretly left here.

Hu Ayu knew about this plan, and she even took the risk to bribe the townspeople who were guarding Hu Ayun at the mountain temple in private to facilitate communication between her sister and her lover.

But on the day of the sacrifice, Hu Ayun and her lover agreed on the time, but she did not see the man.

Subsequent results are the same.

Like those "selected" girls in the town before, Hu Ayun was taken as a sacrifice, skinned and boned by the goddess, and the skin and bones were used as an umbrella, and the body was taken to the deep mountains.

Hu Ayun and Hu Ayu's parents thought it was a happy event, not happy, and even held a banquet to celebrate after Hu Ayun's death. And the man who was supposed to be Hu Ayun's husband... still lives in Ankang Town safely, and within a few months he engaged another girl. I don't know if this man missed his mouth. I don't know when it started. There were rumors all over the town that Hu Ayun was not pure when he sacrificed to the mountain god.

Rumours spread, people die and the lights go out.

Except for Hu Ayun's death and the rumors flying all over the sky, nothing seems to have changed in Ankang Town.

But after a few months, people suddenly began to die in the town—the first to die was the man who was supposed to marry Hu Ayun.

The death of the corpse is horrific. At night, the man's screams penetrated the neighbors, and some people went to check, and saw a bloody, skinless female ghost pressing on the man, tearing his flesh, scared to see that. People ran away immediately. The next day, when the early morning came, the townspeople went to see the man and found that the man had been skinned and boned and died in the blood all over the floor.

—The exact same way of dying as being sacrificed to a mountain god.

Afterwards, Hu Ayun and Hu Ayu's parents, the man's current wife, other people in the town... all died in this way one after another.

Everyone felt that this was because of Hu Ayun's uncleanness, and the mountain **** was angry and brought them retribution.

From that day on, the people in the town began to be more and more afraid of the mountain god. What happened after that happened to be merged with all the clues Yan Wei had investigated in the past two days - the goddess discovered that every time a person died, the skinless ghost would throw the dead skin and bones to the bottom of the well, and let the goddess make an umbrella. The goddess later found out that as long as there was a skin-bone umbrella at the door of the house, the skinless ghost would kill those people first, so she began to attract travelers to live in the temple and exchange the lives of the travelers for the lives of the townspeople.

Yan Wei and others are the latest group of travelers.

Hu Ayu spoke, and the whole picture of this copy was displayed in front of Yan Wei.

Lou's prompt sound also sounded, Yan Wei alone won this point, and this story clue was also announced to other players. Yan Wei and Yan Mingguang both scored 4 points at the moment, reaching a tie for first place, and after this clue was announced, the players returned to the same starting point again.

In the past few minutes, Yan Wei has already obtained the rush points, and the players in the kitchen naturally have no need to continue fighting, and they all withdraw their hands and rush here.

"Where do you believe in mountain gods? It's almost the same as mountain ghosts." Yan Wei asked, "That's all you know?"

Hu Ayu nodded: "Yes...so people in the town don't like to see me... They think that these disasters are brought by our family."

Yan Wei smiled: "Thank you, these days are not peaceful, you have to be careful."

Since Hu Ayu said that she has no other information, whether she is true or false, it means that there are no more points to ask from her.

The rest of the players glanced at each other, didn't hesitate, didn't stay here at all, and left each other - they went to other places to look for points.

Yan Mingguang swung the whip in his hand, dragged Yan Wei to his side neatly, and said indifferently: "Let's go too."

Yan Wei and Yan Mingguang went down the mountain.

Emotions are necessary.

But Yan Wei is different.

His years of experience in the three religions and nine streams played a role, coupled with his harmless appearance, Yan Wei didn't put any effort into it, he just kept him close to people The well-behaved appearance, the townspeople have some good feelings.

The two came to the cemetery in Ankang Town in almost no time.

【Why didn’t you ask me why I came here first and didn’t go to the well? After all, there are phalanges under the well that we haven't collected yet. 】Yan Wei threw the whip and pulled Yan Mingguang as a prank, 【always keep silent, suffocated, dead ice. 】

Yan Mingguang was not pulled by him at all, he still walked steadily ahead, and said cooperatively: [Well, why? 】

Yan Wei: "..." I don't know why there is no sense of accomplishment.

method, the clues in the hand are most likely related to the phalanges. But she came to the kitchen the first time this morning. If she knew the phalanx, she would not waste this time coming to the kitchen at all, but would go down the well at dawn. So I think, even if she has clues related to the phalanx, she doesn't directly mention the phalanx. 】

, what is their death order, and my debuff, I don't believe it fell on my head randomly. 】

Yan Wei even had a little doubt about Hu Ayu. After all, the name of this debuff is "Girl's Love", and Hu Ayu really likes him the most among the players.

But as soon as Hu Ayu is twenty-eight years old, Lou should not define twenty-eight years old as a girl, and he also has a skeleton eye prop, which can be seen in the dungeon once dangerous, He can look at Hu Ayu with the eyes of the skeleton when no one is there.

So Yan Wei chose to come to the cemetery of Ankang Town first to confirm who the townspeople were killed by the skinless ghosts in the past ten years, and the order of these people's death - since the first one died It is the man who betrayed Hu Ayun, so the identity and order of the deceased can never be random.

He can't let go of any possible clues now, because the ladder clues have no clear direction until now.

He and Yan Mingguang made this clear, and the two of them have already walked into this cemetery.

Ankang Town, which is isolated from the outside world, still maintains the ancient funeral customs. The cemetery is at the foot of the mountain. Tombs with piles of earth and monuments were scattered here and there, apparently burying them wherever they saw an open space. But only one was particularly crowded and tidy, apparently built in the immediate vicinity.

—the tombs of the skinned dead, as the townspeople said.

"Strange..." Yan Wei murmured.

These graves are in the most remote corners, as if they are afraid of bad luck. And on each tombstone hangs a stone-carved umbrella, with the names of these people written on the tombstone, along with the time of their birth and death.

This crowded cemetery is overgrown with weeds and barren, and there is not even a trace of worship, which is enough to show that the townspeople are very secretive about the dead.

The tall weeds swayed gently, and Yan Wei felt a little cold on her neck.

He walked over to the graves one after another, broke the weeds in front of him, and read out the name on the tombstone in front of him: "Li Yishu..."

"Hu Ayun's original fiance." Yan Mingguang said.

"That seems to be him..." Yan Wei pulled out the weeds in front of him, leaned slightly and approached the tombstone, intending to take a closer look at the information on the tombstone, "Then he really Died so early, but why are these tombstones so dirty and old, these mounds don't look solid at all—"

Yan Wei's voice came to an abrupt end.

In front of him, on the old and desolate grave, the slightly raised mound seemed to sway slightly.

The skinless head moved slightly...

—gives him a sinister smile.

Teacher help!"

Gambling area.

After Jiang Xiu and Zheng Mao died, Yuemang was the only one left, Ning Yi, who turned off the projection from beginning to end. The other players quarreled.

"Jiang Xiu is dead. No matter who wins the best player this time, he will be upset. Yan also killed Jiang Xiu himself. Isn't it the most likely?"

"Don't forget, it's the right place and the right place for yan to kill Jiang Xiu, if it wasn't for the fact that he happened to go down a well, and Lin Zhen and Yu Feizhou happened to help, how could he complete the whole scene? Control points? That three points are actually taken by Yan Mingguang, Lin Zhen and Yu Feizhou together?"

"Actually, I think, four people took it together, right? The player Yan Wei beside Yan Mingguang seems to be not as trash as everyone said. Although he did not contribute before, he also I didn't hold back, I even got a point for a quick answer today-although it's because of the NPC's goodwill, but it's also a contribution."

"You don't forget who got the first two points. It is possible that this Yan Wei has never opened his perspective. Now he is not afraid to slap his face, in case it is a hidden What about the boss?"

"Also—"

These people's discussions suddenly stopped.

In the live broadcast of Yan Mingguang, Yan Wei, whom everyone thought might have potential just now, was followed by a skinless ghost crawling out of the soil. He quickly ran towards Yan Mingguang, While running, he shouted, "Teacher Yan, help."

"I think you are right," a player sighed, "Running so fast, he is really a hidden boss with potential."

Other players: "…"
