Chapter 32: old woman 32
Seeing Ning Qiu giving him a meaningful look, Liu Zhu immediately shook his head and said, "Don't tell me to walk alone, I will never agree."
"You think too much." Ning Qiu just glanced at him, and then settled on the few stones lying in the corner next to him.
"Go pick up three stones and throw them down the first passage on the left."
"Oh, good." Liu Zhu immediately followed suit.
The sound of the rolling stones was very clear in the empty and reverberating underground space.
The stone rolled for a long time, and the sound became smaller and smaller, but even if it was very weak, it continued to roll as if it had no end.
Then Liu Zhu tried two other paths, the middle one rolled for a while and then stopped, and the one on the far right also rolled for a long time.
Liu Zhu wondered if Ning Qiu would choose a different one in the middle, but she turned and walked to the one on the right.
Liu Zhu wondered, "Why choose this one?"
Just when he thought he would hear some explanation, he heard Ning Qiu say casually, "Random selection."
This is what he said, but Liu Zhu knows that there must be a reason, but he will not break the casserole and ask to the end.
The road ahead is dark, only the footsteps of two people are left.
Being in an environment that is too dark will expand the fear in his heart, Liu Zhu tilted his head to look at Ning Qiu, and found a topic that he had suspected for a long time, "Our brothers and sisters have been in this period for decades. You've changed a lot over time."
"So, what do you think?" Ning Qiu asked indifferently.
.
The old lady's family will definitely find the difference, but they don't mention what they pretend they don't know, and she won't say it.
"Haha, I'm at this age, of course I don't care about many things, so I don't have any thoughts." Liu Zhu smiled, but was silent for a while after laughing.
The old lady is just an ordinary old lady in Sanwan Village, nothing more. He told himself so in his heart.
And no matter what, the old lady was very good to them and did not choose to hurt them.
Live very transparently, this is Ning Qiu's evaluation to Liu Zhu.
In front of a stone gate, I think the passage on the left can lead to here, and it has always been a steep **** to ensure that the stones can roll down accurately.
"How do we get in." He wondered, and Ning Qiu had already stepped forward. She knocked on the right wall of Shimen, then reached out to Liu Zhu, "Put the dagger Bring it here."
Liu Zhu hurriedly handed over the dagger wiped on his belt, and then consciously raised two lanterns to illuminate Ning Qiu.
Before he came, Ning Qiu told him to prepare it. Although he didn't know what it was, he still prepared it obediently. I didn't expect it to be used now.
wrench.
"It's hidden so deep!" Liu Zhu was stunned and exclaimed, "How did you know it was here?"
"This piece is the last one, and it's not the same as the surrounding texture." Ning Qiu turned the wrench, the stone door slowly opened, and the moment it left the ground, a cloud of dust was raised, choking Liu Zhu's nose was itchy and he was coughing in a low voice.
I heard a slight click, and the stone door was raised.
It broke with a bang, and then a ball rolled to his feet.
"What is it?" Liu Zhu took a small step on his back. He crouched down and picked up the ball at his feet. what.
However, in the next second, a head appeared in front of me, and in the dim light, it looked particularly eerie.
Liu Zhu's eyes widened in fright, he gasped, his hands trembled, and his head fell to the ground.
"Why, why is there a head here!" He stammered as he spoke, and hurriedly stepped back for several steps, obediently hiding behind Ning Qiu, this time he would never dare to walk in front.
Ning Qiu was quite speechless, "Your courage is a little out of sync with your age."
"This has nothing to do with age." Liu Zhu lost face, but he still had to be tough.
"Go and light the lamp on the wall on the left." Ning Qiu said, turning around and lighting the wick on the right.
Until all the lights were lit, the situation in the secret room was revealed.
Liu Zhu walked against the wall and slowly moved to Ning Qiu's side, looking at the white bones forming a hill, he was more shocked than scared, "How come so many people died here? !?"
He never knew that there were piles of corpses under the majestic ancestral hall, and there was no place to continue walking forward.
Does my father know what's going on here? Liu Zhu was a little suspicious this time, whether the so-called "can't come in" rule was because he was afraid of being seen.
"They starved to death and suffocated to death." Ning Qiu squatted down and pushed aside the corpses on the ground with the pole carrying the lantern.
Liu Zhu hurriedly asked, "How do you know?"
"There is no harm or poison, and it is useless to live by eating other people. It can be seen that this is the only possibility. They know their destiny and give up struggling." Ning Qiu half bent. Waist, used a pole to move the corpse to the other side, and opened a road to go forward.
The speed is very slow, but she is not impatient, but try not to destroy these bones, after all, the dead are big, and the grievances after death are also very heavy, a little more respect is etiquette.
"Who killed them in such a cruel way?" Liu Zhu followed closely behind him, he did not dare to look aside, a living person was starved to death here, waiting for death How tortured the process is, I shudder to think about it.
The ants still steal their lives, but they are doomed to accept death without even having the chance to steal their lives. How sad.
