Painted Skin: Girl Monster Hunter

Long Zu said: "I still don't know whether it is a human or a demon who built the pit here. If it is a demon, it would make more sense. Many things cannot be done with mere mortal strength."

"Wait..." Ruyi suddenly discovered something.

"how?"

"Cows, sheep, chickens..." Ruyi rummaged and kicked the corpses in the pit, counting: "Dogs, horses, pigs..."

After counting the names of these animals, Ruyi trembled violently.She felt a chilling breath for no reason: "This is Liuhu..."

Ruyi thought back to the past, before the ten capable men and strangers set off to attack Deng Zishuang by the lake, the boss once held a ceremony to sacrifice to heaven.Serious and formal sacrifices require the blood of six animals.

To offer sacrifices to the heavens is only necessary to have six livestock, so what are the countless corpses of livestock in this pit for sacrifice...

There are six types of livestock, no more, no less.This can't be just a coincidence.

Before the two could think about it, they heard a distant and low sound like a bell ringing from somewhere in the grotto.

After thinking about it, gusts of hot wind came through from nowhere.It makes the damp and cold cave suddenly become hot like summer.

The stench of the rotting corpse was even more pungent under the blowing of the hot wind.

The ghoul who had been hiding behind the stone began to become restless.They pushed and shoved each other, and withdrew from the stone, stretching out their black-haired arms and heading towards the other several long and thin corridors connecting the giant pit.

"The ghouls probably can't stand the heat anymore." Long Zu said.

Ruyi squinted at the narrow passages, then turned her head to look at the way they came from, and said, "These roads are exactly the same as the way we came here."

Long Zu said: "Come on, let's follow the ghouls to see. I want to know where they are going."

Ruyi Longzu kept a certain distance from the slow-moving ghouls, followed them not too far or too close, and followed them through the tunnel.

After passing the passage, and walking a little further, you can see the bronze tripod with light green smoke floating.

Longzu was surprised and said: "There are incense trees burning here!" He urged Ruyi: "You should cover your mouth and hold your breath, and don't let it go."

After these ghouls smelled the turquoise smoke from burning incense wood, they became manic.They looked at Ruyi and Longzu maliciously, intending to step forward and bite them, but they gave up because the tunnel was too hot.They could only scramble to crawl out from the small hole.

Looking at the ghouls who stumbled into the small cave, Ruyi suddenly understood: "The ghouls that appeared in the cave were not lured by the sweet kiss of the roasted hare at all. They should be the same as these ghouls." , were all forced up by the sudden heat wave.”

Long Zu nodded and said: "The design of this pit is very ingenious. Place the bronze tripod here, burn the incense wood to release the fascinated green smoke, and after a while, trigger the heat to drive the ghouls away. The ghouls Inhaling the hallucinogenic mist, going crazy, and wanting to harm people after getting out of the hole... Who made this pothole."

Ruyi said: "If I'm not mistaken, the ghouls are not gathered here at all, but are raised here by others."

Longzu agreed with this statement very much: "After the ghouls leave the pit, if the sun is shining outside, they will naturally not be able to bear it, and they will want to return to the underground pit again. Rotten objects are placed in the pit for Ghouls use it, so ghouls don’t have to leave to find things at all, and because there are enough things, they don’t conflict with each other. Such an environment is very suitable for raising ghouls.”
