Chapter 95 The sound of the flute

The little ghost frowned, doubtful, Nuwa? The one who made up the sky and created mankind?

I nodded and said, "Remember that old man said this place was turned into a temple? It's not surprising that there's such a statue, but to be honest, many of the small temples in the country are an indistinguishable mix of Taoism and Buddhism, and apart from the Three Pristine Ones and some of the Buddhas, there's really very little belief in a god of the type of Nuwa.

The image of Nuwa in the legend is somewhat similar to that of a beautiful snake, with a human face and a snake's body. However, some cultures regard her as a god, while others call her a demon or a monster, depending on how one wants to define her.

But I never thought I would see her sculpture in such a place, my brain slightly consider for a moment, think that old woman may not have told us everything she knows.

From the attitude of the people in this village towards Mrs. Nine back then, we can see that they believe that ghosts and gods exist in this world. While harboring respect, they also harbor extreme fear. Since they believed in Nuwa, they must have known about the beautiful snake as well.

People's curiosity will not be dispelled because of anyone's words, just like the three of us, even if we are afraid, we still try to figure out what exactly is outside the house, perhaps because of curiosity, there are quite a number of people in this village who have died at the hands of the Beautiful Snake, but about them, under the rumor of word of mouth, everyone on the surface, although they are all unspoken, but in fact, they all know clearly what it is that's in this village The village is a place where people are not afraid to go to the devil's house.

Seeing this Nuwa statue made us a little surprised, but more or less able to understand some of the village is the situation.

We stood in the doorway and looked in for a while, this Nuwa statue was too realistic, a pair of eyes always felt like looking at us, making me very uncomfortable.

I slowly want to earlier walked a few steps, the little ghost busy pull me, said you do not still want to go inside, right?

I nodded my head, said why don't you and Tintin wait here, I will go in with the hanged ghost to take a look, there is something wrong with the situation, you guys also remind me.

Ding Ding clapped his hands, thinking that he didn't have to take any risks, and immediately said yes, so it was decided.

The little ghost more or less some hesitation, thought for a while, said, what is the situation inside we do not know, you so risky to go in, if something really happened, we will not be able to save you.

I said these I understand, just because the situation is unknown now, so let you wait here, I accident, also better than the group destroyed. Mrs. Nine asked me to come here, although the purpose is unknown, but she must have expected these circumstances. Besides, I have a big life, I won't die that easily.

Said, I towards the hanging ghost shot a hand, said not still have him follow me, I was saved by him is not once or twice.

Hanged ghost looked at me, first froze for a moment, and then patted his chest grin, seems to be saying let me rest assured.

My heart warmed, I am always lucky, although the words said so grand, to say not afraid, that is a lie, but one I do not want to let go of this opportunity, the second also do not want to Ding Ding and the little ghost followed me into danger, but there will always be who is still by my side, even if the dragon pool and tiger's den also dared to follow me to break into, this is already the most comforting thing for me.

I waved my hand at the two of them and said you guys pay attention here as well, then turned around without looking at what expression was on their faces and walked towards the courtyard.

This ancient building, in the center is a very spacious open space, the rooms are on both sides, forming a circle, there is no lighted lamps in here, it looks dark, but by the color of the moon, it is still able to see everything around clearly.

But the strange thing is, now in this ancient building, there is no sound at all, the beautiful snakes that crawled in earlier, all seem to have suddenly disappeared, and even the loudness of their crawling can't be heard in the slightest.

I slowly moved my steps, deeper into the courtyard. In the middle of the courtyard, there is a very large tree planted, I still can't tell the species, but this is different from the human face tree, this tree is much taller, the branches and trunks are so thick and indescribable, the crown of the tree almost covers the entire courtyard, and only the thin moonlight penetrates through the gaps, illuminating dappled shadows of the tree on the ground.

I looked up for a while, seeing the deep shadows of the trees, and couldn't see much.

I continued to take steps forward, but not yet out of a few steps, I heard behind me "plop" a muffled sound, as if there is a heavy object from the air fell a little.

My heart jumped, and my footsteps stopped. I slowly turned my head, with the corner of my eye, looked behind me, and found that a few steps away from me, a pile of black stuff smashed there, motionless.

I was just curious about what it was, and when I gazed at it, I immediately didn't dare to come closer. This was actually the corpse of that relative of Ding Ding's family, after such a fall, it had all changed shape! There was no trace of it just now, and now it fell out of thin air.

I glanced at him and took a deep breath to calm my nerves.

The little ghost and the others were standing outside the door, from that angle, they could see me, but they couldn't see the body falling. Just two people see me suddenly stop, inevitably a little anxious, I see them both have the intention of wanting to rush in, until see I waved my hand, signaling that they are fine, then stop.

I didn't dare to go through that corpse, for fear that he was still hiding some strange and weird things.

I just follow the place where he fell down to look up, but this night is too dark, nothing can not see through, in order to be on the safe side, I can only buy when I came to the portable flashlight out, although the brightness and range of illumination is limited, but the good thing is that it is easy to carry, toward the belt bag on a hang on the line.

We originally came here in the dark, because it is better to hide their tracks. But now it seems no longer work, want to probe deeply, we must first figure out the other side of the situation, can't just let themselves be exposed.

I opened the flashlight, took a look at the faint light, and then shone the light towards the big tree.

At first glance, there were only some messy branches and leaves, reflecting a dull green shadow under the light, I slowly swept over the branches above my head, but after a circle, I didn't find anything unusual.

I scratched my head in puzzlement, then turned the flashlight light downward, and looked toward the side of the body, this body in addition to being smashed a little twisted, but not too different from the time of death, the expression is still very calm, just slightly scary shape.

I breathed a sigh of relief, towards Ding Ding and the brat made a OK gesture, see the brat face a smile, raised his hand ready to respond to me, but also at this time, the previous kind of rustling sound once again sounded, my hand movements stalled, panicked and raised his head towards the top of the tree to see.

I am sure that the sound is from the tree, but only see the branches and leaves trembling up, but did not find other strange ground counter, only that sound unceasingly, let a person's teeth trembling.

I can't help but grip the torch in my hand tightly, as if at such a time, no matter what is held in my hand, it can be used as a weapon by me.

Little Ghost and Ding Ding's gazes also rose as the sound rang out, and they both looked up.

We just stared stupidly, not knowing whether a few minutes or ten minutes had passed, and apart from that rustling sound, we didn't find anything strange. This is also not like the sound of the wind blowing the treetops, in addition to the beautiful snake can make this kind of movement, I really can not think of what else.

This sound wanted to sound for a while, suddenly stopped, the sudden silence let us momentarily reaction, subconsciously thought that the trees are silent.

But the hangman pulled me and pointed towards the top. I followed the direction of his finger and pointed at that place with my flashlight, at first there was nothing, but after a few seconds, a woman's face suddenly turned out from behind the branches!

The face was very pale in the light, and the eyes looked hollow as they moved slowly, turning their heads toward me.

I tightened my fists and looked straight at it, thinking that no matter who called my name in a moment, I would definitely keep my mouth shut.

But I still underestimated their ability, immediately following that face, countless faces sighed out from behind the branches, densely covering the entire canopy. They had different expressions on their faces, either laughing or crying, or dropping a body from the branches like ribbons. A moment ago, there was no trace of them at all, but now, the shadows of beautiful snakes were everywhere above my head, hanging all over the treetops!

I heard Ding Ding curse from afar, saying Holy shit, you guys are camouflaging sphinx trees!

But those beautiful snakes didn't pay any attention to him at all, and a pair of eyes looked towards me, and the voice in their mouths was either joyful or sad, shouting my name over and over again, saying Tan Xi …… Tan Xi …… Tan Xi… …

I hastily covered my ears, trying to detach myself from the sound. But in the end I realized that this is not useful at all, their voices seem to be everywhere, as if there are thousands of people surrounding you, constantly shouting your name, just waiting for you to be impatient, yelling at them to let them shut up, in that case, waiting for you to end up, is to be eaten by these beautiful snakes.

At this time, I even sprouted a hint of retreat in my heart. Teeth tightly biting lips, can already feel the faint flavor of blood. I was afraid that if I couldn't hold on, I would open my mouth to answer them.

I glanced around, still not seeing that yin streamer come out, in my heart slightly consider for a moment, thinking about whether I should continue towards the front, but the beautiful snake hanging above my head, I was worried in my heart, and there was no motivation to continue at all.

Then just at this time, I suddenly heard a flute sound, in this dark night seems to be melodious and clear. This flute sound is not big, but it can pass through all the shouts into the ears, as if this sound, suppress all the voices.

The beautiful snake almost at the same time closed its mouth, and the surroundings returned to the original kind of silent and depressing state, only that flute sound did not break.

I quickly look for the source of the sound, just want to step forward, I heard a house on the left, faint footsteps, I quickly toward the big tree behind a hide, I heard "creak" sound, a house door was pushed open.
