"Red Yin?"
Suddenly heard Hong Yin's voice, Bai Wu ignored the fire and became energetic.
The surrounding scene began to change, as if returning to Jing Liu's phone booth area again, Bai Wu watched everything around him disintegrate bit by bit.
The fire in the Zhao family at the moment, the chaos caused by the mutated livestock outside the house,
Since Bai Wu left the witch's residence, the direction of the story has completely changed.
It should be the same as before, Bai Wu found the monster's obsession, and then moved the monster with some words. It was like the first time he faced Hong Yin, but this time Bai Wu underestimated the degree of distortion of this spiritual world.
There are too many obsessions here, Zhu Jin and Zhao Kuan, the father of the Cui family who lost their child, Feng Haiping, the owner of the funeral business...they are all part of the obsession.
To completely heal these obsessions can indeed make a group of people leave this world.
The white mist is indeed in the mind of a certain monster, but in this monster's mind... there are two strands of consciousness.
Hong Yin appeared beside Bai Wu, her feet were bare, black spots appeared on the red dress on her body, but she looked extremely haggard.
Hong Yin with a pale face sat beside Bai Wu, and a mirror appeared in front of Bai Wu.
Bai Wu noticed that the balloon that Hong Yin always held in his hand was gone. He didn't know what it meant, but he felt a great sense of crisis in his heart.
All the stories, following the picture in the mirror and Hong Yin's voice...began to surface slowly.
"The big sacrifice in the lake is to sacrifice a child between the ages of 12 and 15. This custom has been passed down for thousands of years. For thousands of years, people in Zaohu think it is a matter of course."
"My brother must be hard to imagine. In that era, there were still such remote and closed villages. Cui Zhengping of the Cui family was a craftsman, and he had an ugly son named Shitou. There will be floods in the future, so the name Stone came into being."
"The fortune-teller was actually right. The stone was indeed flooded. The sacrifice in the lake was the stone. On that day, they tied the stone to a wooden frame and placed livestock around it. The sorceress chanted a set of incantations to pray for the blessing of the lake god. Everyone laughed and laughed, only Cui Zhengping was bleeding."
"When the stone sank into the middle of the lake, he heard the desperate cry of the stone before he died. He was calling, Dad, save me."
The picture in the mirror at this time was the stone tied to the wooden frame shouting, his hands and feet were tied and he couldn't move around, he just kept his head up, yelling at Cui Zhengping in embarrassment.
"No one rescued him, the stone just sank into the lake bit by bit. In fact, there was no need to tie him up, because at that time, those things in the lake had already begun to wake up..."
"For thousands of years, in fact, every household has been a victim of the great sacrifice in the lake. They have long been accustomed to it. In fact, some people have thought of banning it. Cui Zhengping of the Cui family sighed all day long, making all kinds of paper figurines at home.”
"But the idea of banning it was stopped by the sorceress, because in the next fifteen years, the Zhu family will contribute sacrifices. Counting the time, it will start after Zhu Jin and Zhao Kuan got married. My brother may not know, The girls in this village are going to get married at the age of twelve or thirteen...they...they are miserable, they will be mothers when they are very young."
Of course Bai Wu knew that before coming to this world, there was such a completely closed village in the world he was in. The people in the village seem to be living in the last era.
"The sorceress said, someone else's family sacrificed, but in your generation, you can cancel it if you say so? Then what do you do to the Cui family who just finished the sacrifice? You have all seen the lake god, thousands of years Come on, have any ancestors seen the lake **** appear? This is the fairy fate accumulated by our ancestors for generations, how can we ruin it here?"
"The old man of the Zhu family thought about it again and felt that everything was indeed like this. The lake **** was born like auspicious auspiciousness. Anyone who sees the flower-bearing antlers will feel that the lake **** can bring happiness to the village."
"Only Cui Zhengping didn't think so. After the stone was sunk into the lake by everyone, he began to question all of this. He is indeed not a good father. At least he chose between customs and his own children. Old custom."
"But also because of this, he began to feel that maybe the lake **** is fake, maybe the world is slowly changing... How can a deer have flowers on its antlers? He doesn't care how magical that deer is, he I only know that the stone will never come back."
The antlers of the deer are blooming and walking on the water sounds like a fairy, but Bai Wu knows that this deer is just degenerate, which is not surprising.
Only a little bit of Bai Wu thinks it is necessary to pay attention-this deer is the first evil fall in all the timelines that Bai Wu knows so far.
Because according to the sorceress, many people have seen it as early as 20 years before the lake festival.
This is earlier than Dandelaire, than Violet, and any evil depravity known to Bai Wu in the Ninth Mental Hospital.
The reason why it was so early was that before Professor Tao and Xie Yingjie realized that the end of the world was coming, an evil fall was born, which made Bai Wu suddenly feel... maybe it has something to do with the well.
Because in the traveler's map, this area is actually considered the periphery of the well area.
The deer itself is also very strange.
It did not show any desire to attack humans. As Hong Yin talked about this deer, a corresponding picture would appear in the mirror.
Bai Wu also saw the deer.
The whole body of the deer is white, pure and flawless, the antlers are majestic and majestic, and the white flowers that bloom seem to be illuminated by the moonlight.
Although the Eye of Prell didn't give any information, Bai Wu always felt that... this deer is indeed not some evil thing.
No wonder the villagers believe so firmly in the existence of the lake god. This deer is so beautiful.
The white jade-like body is tall and stalwart, and the antlers make people feel infinite vitality.
So that Bai Wu was thinking, why can the deer be so beautiful? So far, including himself, which evil person is not crooked? Except for Shen Shuyue who maintains a human form.
"Could it be that...the mutation in the earliest period actually had a positive mutation?"
If you don't care about the appearance and look at it purely in terms of strength, there is no positive mutation. As long as you can maintain your sanity and not affect your survival, Bai Wuyan's degenerate evolution is an alternative evolution.
But maybe... there is some kind of more advanced form?
All of this is just Bai Wu's speculation, purely due to the fact that this deer is so beautiful, the reverie about this deer was quickly interrupted by Hong Yin's words. Bai Wu can now understand why the people in this village believe so firmly in the existence of the Lake God.
"Cui Zhengping didn't like that deer, and he didn't like all of this. Although his child was born ugly, Shitou was very sensible. He really missed Shishi so much, so the sorceress told him that being a paper man can resist mildew. Luck.”
"He began to make paper people constantly, not only to ward off bad luck, but also to think that if one day, Shi Shi came back, he would have a group of paper people to play with him."
"The stone... has indeed come back, and he has changed into another form, which is what you saw, brother, that monster covered in mud. Compared with the deer, one became the lake god, and the other It becomes an evil in the lake."
"But the stone...he has become a monster like me..."
When Hong Yin said this, she suddenly stopped, and Bai Wu could feel that something was wrong with the little girl's mood.
She has a kind heart, and the tragic experience of Shi Shi makes her feel sad. Bai Wu held Hong Yin's hand, and he suddenly felt that Hong Yin's aura became very clean.
The huge resentment in the past seemed to have completely disappeared.
"The stone is really like me. I didn't expect to meet a person who was very similar to me. It became a monster, but it never forgot those people. It should hate them, because it is this group of people took their lives."
Bai Wu suddenly remembered that Hong Yin should have hated those doctors back then.
But she just wanted to play with the doctors, but her appearance at that time was too terrifying.
Stone's situation is very similar to hers. He had no ill will towards the villagers who killed him.
"The stone has gained the ability to predict the crisis. It appeared in front of everyone in an ugly manner. It first reported to the royal family, but it... it couldn't speak, it was just a very low-level evil, it didn't It has all the abilities of an intelligent species. Even its memory is incomplete..."
The evil degeneration of non-smart species is probably considered evolution except for physical fitness and supernatural powers, and other aspects are considered mutation and degeneration.
"It was so terrifying that everyone was terrified, and instinctively felt afraid of it. It chirped in front of everyone, telling everyone that the Wang family and Li family would be in danger soon, but... no one could Understand what the stone is saying."
"No one knew how anxious Shi Shi was. The people of the Wang family finally plucked up the courage and drove Shi Shi out with sticks. This is also the first time Shi Shi has appeared in front of everyone."
"Stone's premonition of the crisis soon came true, and the Wang family soon encountered accidents. And starting from the Wang family... more and more accidents happened in the village, such as mutated beasts, items with unknown uses after sending spirits, and more. With diseases and changes in people's hearts, this village seems to be cursed, and people have died frequently this year."
Hong Yin's other small hand clenched into a fist,
"Every day before death...the stone will appear in the homes of the dying, telling them that the disaster is coming. But no one believes it...because the stone is not a white deer, it is just an ugly water ghost Monsters, disasters and death came again and again, and the whole village panicked."
"The stone is not very smart. I don't know that everyone has regarded it as some kind of disaster. Although it can feel it, everyone doesn't like it because it is too scary... But whenever someone When there will be a disaster of blood and light, it will still appear stubbornly."
"Every time it appears, everyone thinks it is evil, and it becomes more firm. It is as lonely as a human being, sitting by the lake like a different kind... waiting for everyone to thank it .”
"Obviously even its father, Cui Zhengping, hates him..."
This picture appeared in the mirror, a stone like a water ghost, hiding behind a bunch of paper figures, it misses father so much, but it knows that its ugly appearance may scare father.
So Shishi hid behind the paper man, gouged out the paper man's eyes, and looked at Cui Zhengping through the holes in the paper man's eyes.
The irony is... What Cui Zhengping wrote on the red pillow was also the words of missing his son.
"Cui Zhengping finally found out that Shishi was hiding behind the paper figurine. Cui Zhengping was so frightened that he was scared out of his wits, and Shitou had to leave here due to the scream of fear."
Bai Wu remembered that in the first scene, in the iron box, it was Cui Zhengping who wrote many things on the old calendar.
Cui Zhengping made a lot of paper figurines, at first to persuade the sorceress, and later to let his son's dead soul have someone to accompany him when he returns home.
"I knew it would be my turn one day, but I didn't expect this day to come so soon... I saw that thing, it was black all over, with long, long hair, **** it! Damn it!"
Bai Wu still remembered this part, but he still didn't know that Cui Zhengping later prepared a lot of talismans for restraining water ghosts.
Cui Zhengping became the first person...to see the stone but not die, because the stone came to see Cui Zhengping, not to tell Cui Zhengping that there was danger, the child just missed his father too much.
"The stone never appeared again... because one day, the stone saw the talisman paper pasted on the back of the paper figurine. It was indeed not smart, and it couldn't speak human words, but it could feel his father's disgust for him."
"Brother... the stone at that time must have been very hard..."
Bai Wu can somewhat feel the pain of being loathed by his father, but now he just feels that it's good to see each other and hate each other.
But what Shitou experienced ~IndoMTL.com~ was actually more hopeless. It clearly yearns for his father's love.
It is the one who is really cursed. No matter what it does, it seems that it can only go further and further away from the villagers... further and further away.
Hong Yin's tone seemed quite remorseful,
Bai Wu heard the meaning of self-blame here, and thought of Hong Yin saying that she did something wrong, and the resentment on her body became extremely thin, and she looked weak. It was even worse than I expected.
"Actually, it's not that even one person doesn't understand Shitou. Brother, you play the eldest son of the Zhao family, as well as Zhu Jin... and Uncle Feng from Baishidian. They all sense that Shitou may not be a disaster things."
No wonder it comes out of the cellar of the paper figurine, which means that the story begins with the Cui family’s sacrifice, and it’s no wonder that the entrances to escape and enter the next floor are in the red house and the white house.
Because the owner of the coffin, as well as the married couple in the lobby, may have played the role of one of the few good people in the life of the stone.
Bai Wu's expression became serious, this story is about to usher in the final turning point, he said following Hong Yin's words:
"I'm afraid the fate of these people...is not good?"
"Yes...brother, like them, I also made the mistake of judging people by their appearance. I miss my grandma so much."
Hong Yin suddenly mentioned grandma, which made Bai Wu a little astonished. Naturally, this story has nothing to do with Hong Yin's grandma.
But when he remembered, Hong Yin seemed to come to this village because she missed her grandma. The person who combed Hong Yin's hair when she was a child...
Just continuing to think about Hong Yin's words, Bai Wu suddenly understood.
