Holy Bone

Chapter 1658: Finding the True and False Gewu Xianding

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Behind the storage room was an even deeper darkness and the sound of more people whispering, as if every inch of air in the small dark room was packed with people, and the whispers were so loud that one's head seemed to be about to burst.

"Luckily I don't have a brain now."

Wutou Jinan couldn't help but smile in his heart.

He was amusing himself to relieve his boredom and to relieve the numbness that comes from being in the dark for a long time.

The floor, walls, and ceiling of the storage room are also covered with Bible verses, but the Bibles in the storage room are written in blood. The densely packed bloody Bibles fill every corner, making it impossible to step, indirectly reflecting that a very tragic exorcism had taken place here.

The ending is obvious. The exorcism fails, good prevails over evil, and in the end everyone on the boat is killed and no one survives.

Thinking of this, and listening to the dense voices in the storage room, it is easy to associate a bad result with the crew being eaten, and now all of them are crowded in this small storage room.

No wonder the noise was so deafening that it made one's head seem like it was going to burst. It gave one the feeling that every inch of the air was packed with people. Hundreds of people were crowded in a small storage room. The scene was hard to imagine.

But in reality, the storage room was empty and there was no one in sight.

It was a very contradictory and strange feeling. The invisible air was filled with people, and it was much more lively than what could be seen with the naked eye...

but!

A headless Taoist priest standing on a ghost ship is absurd and evil enough in itself, so when compared with the two, the weird experience in the storage room no longer seems weird, and it did not scare Headless Jinan from going deeper into the storage room.

He wanted to see what kind of monsters and demons were hidden in this dark storage room.

The further you go in, the more frequent and louder the voices of people around you become. These voices are the resentment of people, and when people enter them, their minds are inevitably polluted and affected.

But what can truly devour people's hearts is the even more claustrophobic darkness here. When a person is alone in the darkness, he will eventually be devoured by it.

The darkness here was so great that even the soul-guiding lamp was affected. Not many steps into the room before I saw that the soul-guiding lamp had almost lost its lighting function. It couldn't even illuminate the headless Jin'an himself, who was nearby. It could only illuminate the small half of the person's hand holding the lantern.

However, these could not scare Headless Jinan, so he continued to go deeper, while silently casting the wind-borrowing spell, once again using the wind to detect the surrounding environment.

This time, he was able to sense his surroundings clearly even though he had lost his head and was in darkness thanks to the fourteenth transformation of the Wind Borrowing Technique he had practiced.

Let him be at ease in the dark.

The storage room is not big and is slightly narrower than an ordinary room. Something strange happened when the wind passed through a corner of the storage room. It was completely airtight and could not blow in.

The one that is airtight is a wall.

But it's not a wall.

Wutou Jinan's heart moved and he walked towards that direction.

As he approached that corner, the temperature dropped sharply. Even the wind he borrowed using the wind-borrowing technique became much colder when it reached here.

If you smell it carefully, you can feel the coldness and chillness filled with resentment.

Headless Jin An looked intently, but could not see anything in the darkness. He stepped on the bloodstains and blood-colored scriptures on the ground and continued to move closer, wanting to see it clearly.

Nothing strange happened along the way, the process was surprisingly smooth and direct. He stopped when he bumped into something in the dark. Only then did he notice that there was a black thing in front of him.

The thing had a vague outline in the darkness, and it was hard to tell what it was. It was as tall as a human, and it exuded a strong, pungent smell of blood, corpses, death, and resentment...

At this moment, he was at zero distance from the thing opposite him, almost sticking to it. Gradually, there was a different smell in the air, which was the smell of death.

He just stood there next to the thing opposite him. "People?"

Headless Jin'an stood in the darkness and observed calmly. For him, who was used to seeing mountains of corpses and seas of blood and had experienced many life and death situations, this scene was not enough to disturb his mind or scare him to the point of panicking and retreating.

It's hard to say that there's a person on the other side, but it doesn't look like a person, because it's just the outline of a dark shadow, not the outline of a person.

The former is big and the latter is small.

There is a clear size gap.

At first glance, he suspected that the person standing opposite him might be a person, but after calmly observing the outline and shape, his reason told him that it was a large object, not a person.

So he held up the soul-guiding lamp, and the green candle lantern was placed against the opposite side, using the faint light in the darkness to illuminate the opposite side bit by bit.

This process is very slow because it is shot from high up. The first thing that comes into view is a dead person's facial features twisted in pain, with his mouth open and roaring silently in pain.

The soul-guiding lamp illuminated the body muscles inch by inch, and shone down along the mouth, neck, chest..., revealing the distorted and grotesque shapes of several people whose bodies were twisted into a ball in pain.

The air was filled with a depressing atmosphere at this moment.

There is an invisible sense of oppression like a heavy rock pressing on the heart, making people hold their breath involuntarily. Even though Headless Jin'an has no head, it does not affect the sense of oppression on the mind that is pressing step by step in the darkness.

With a bit of solemnity, he raised the soul-guiding lamp again and circled it around the twisted corpse.

When he finished reading and returned to the starting point, an incense stick of time had passed. It was not because the corpse in front of him was large, but because it was extremely dark here and not conducive to lighting.

At this moment, the dead man's facial features, with his mouth twisted in pain, were once again reflected in the halo of the soul-guiding light.

This is a multi-legged human-shaped tripod, which is made up of many deformed and distorted human tissues. There is only one human face, which is the one in front of you.

He originally thought that these were the twisted bodies of the shipwrecked crew members, but when he returned to the starting point, he saw clearly that there was actually only one person in this multi-legged human-shaped tripod, and the rest of the bodies were swallowed by him.

He counted and found that there were ten human feet in this multi-legged human-shaped tripod, which meant that at least four or five people were swallowed.

  Or rather, being eaten!

Hundreds of people died on the ship, it is impossible that there are only these few bodies in front of us. Where did all those people go? What about the five people here?

Could these be crew members who have developed cannibalism?

After they finished eating, they came to the bottom of the cabin to feed their common owner, that painful and twisted dead face? Wu Du Jin An guessed in his heart.

Ordinary people would have been frightened by the darkness and the strange and twisted corpses and would have avoided them. Only Headless Jinan continued to stick his body close to the person and hold up the lantern to observe.

Without a head, he is a bizarre and strange existence in himself, so no matter what strange things happen on this ghost ship, they cannot shake his mind.

Headless Jin'an was still holding the lantern close to his body, carefully examining the multi-legged humanoid tripod in front of him inch by inch of its muscle. He felt that this tripod should be the Gewu Immortal Tripod he was looking for.

To be more precise, this is what the Gewu Xianding looks like.

He had heard King Zun Yi describe the appearance of the Gewu Xianding. It was a bronze tripod, and was not the human flesh tripod in front of him at all.

The late emperor would never allow a human flesh tripod that went against the will of heaven to board the Shenzhou and tour various countries as an envoy of the State of Kangding.

Therefore, this is a human flesh cauldron that looks like the Gewu Immortal Cauldron. At best, it can only prove that someone has seen the Gewu Immortal Cauldron and that it has some connection with the Gewu Immortal Cauldron, but it is definitely not the Gewu Immortal Cauldron itself.

As for the painfully twisted dead face on the human flesh cauldron, it should be the first crazy cannibal on the ship, and the source of all the shocking changes.

There were not so many cannibals on the ship at the beginning. At the beginning, there was only one person.
