Chapter 19 The Lost Soul

The cave has a large space, four to five hundred square meters.In the center of the cave, where Li Feng glanced over, is a small circular pool, which is filled with black viscous liquid.The liquid was exuding a sour smell, and even Li Feng could smell it in the passageway far away.

After staying in the small town for two years, Li Feng is very familiar with this taste. Isn't this just the bowl of porridge that he would drink every day at noon?

And the reason why Li Feng couldn't help vomiting was the source of this heart-clearing porridge.Just two or three meters above the pool, a strange-shaped beast was locked in the sky by eighteen chains made of unknown metals.The strange beast had no limbs, and was covered with scales, like an enlarged version of a pangolin. The only difference was the nine eye-catching black holes in the belly of the strange beast.

And the eighteen chains that trapped the beasts were distributed on the platform less than one meter wide around the pool.At the back of the platform stood an old man who was nearly sixty years old.

Eighteen chains, eighteen platforms, and eighteen sixty-year-olds.At this moment, 36 palms are touching the connection between the platform and the chain.I saw bursts of fluorescent flashes, and the fluorescent light emitted by the 36 palms entered the body of the strange beast along the chain.

The strange beast seemed to be whining in pain, its body was struggling and shaking, but it could only cause the chain to shake slightly.

Not long after, the strange beast seemed to be unable to bear the pain anymore, and a burst of fiery red light burst out from its body, which lasted for a few seconds, and then dimmed again.Immediately there was a "boom" from the nine holes under his body, and a large amount of sour and smelly liquid poured out.It was discharged into the circular pool under the body.

Li Feng couldn't bear to watch it any longer. First, he felt too disgusted. I'm afraid he would be the first person in this small town to be starved to death.Second, for some unknown reason, the wails of the strange beast always resonated with Li Feng's body, causing abnormal pain in his chest, and his spirit seemed a little dazed.It seemed that the one trapped in the air was not a strange beast, but Li Feng himself.

"No, I can't stay here anymore. If no one finds out later, I'm going to be driven crazy." Li Feng didn't have time to continue observing other situations in the cave.Taking advantage of the strange beast's breathing opportunity, the pain in his chest eased a little.He followed the way he came and slowly backed out.Under the cover of night, he returned to his familiar corner in the small town.

Leaning against the corner of the stone house, Li Feng couldn't calm down anymore.

"Who are these people? Why do they stay in the cave? And what kind of monster is that locked in the cave? Is it really the excrement of that monster that we eat every day?" One question after another continued. Flooding in Li Feng's heart, he felt as if someone was brewing a huge conspiracy. Although he couldn't touch it now, his intuition told him that all this was by no means as simple as he saw.

Li Feng looked up at the seemingly unchanging weather in the sky.Recalling the scenes I saw tonight, I couldn't help sighing in my heart: It seems that the sky in this valley is about to change.

After the cave incident that night, the life in the small town has not changed much from before.It's just that when drinking the bowl of pure heart porridge at noon every day, there will be a few more new faces in the stone house.Those gloomy eyes kept sweeping around the crowd, as if for surveillance, as if they were looking for someone.

Li Feng held the porridge in his hand, endured the nausea of ​​nausea, and drank it all in one gulp.This is not to hide anything.But I really don't want to endure the pain of hunger again.

On the second day after returning from the cave, Li Feng did not drink the black viscous liquid.Instead, he resisted with his own strong willpower.I was still praising myself in my heart: I can never drink this thing again, let alone any conspiracy, just thinking about the excrement of that thing already makes people feel nauseous.Even if I die of starvation, I will never take another bite of that so-called porridge.

Just one day, and only persisted for one day, under the condition of being starved to death.Before noon, Li Feng was the first one to reach the stone house. He lined up early and poured down a bowl of porridge before feeling the energy in his body again.And Li Feng explained to himself afterwards that, of course I would not eat porridge if I starved to death.No, I'm just starved to death, it seems that the person who is about to be entrusted with something, I still have to insist on eating, to hone my will.

Since then, Li Feng has learned to behave well, and he only feels a little sick temporarily after drinking it, and has no other discomfort.If you don't drink it, you will starve to death.

"Strange, what kind of monster is this? Why does its excrement alone have such a magical effect? ​​Then what exactly does the person who caught him want to use this monster for?" When he was bored walking on the street, Li Feng would always lean against the corner alone, thinking about these problems, but he still couldn't figure out what to do.Let him go to the cave again, but he doesn't have the courage that night.

In this unfamiliar place, Li Feng didn't even have anyone to talk to, not to mention that he was surrounded by half-dumb old people.You know, the most painful thing in the world is that you have a secret in your heart, but you can't share it with others.This matter has been lingering in Li Feng's mind, but he doesn't know what to do.

And ever since he heard the whine of the strange beast in the cave, every night when Li Feng went to sleep, it seemed that the whining sound would come from his dream, hitting his heart heavily, causing unbearable pain in his chest.But the black liquid at the seal part, following the wailing sound, was extremely active, continuously devouring the poison of the heartbroken grass around it.In just half a month, he occupied an ordinary position in the sealed space.Li Feng's character and temper are also subtly changing a little bit.It's just that in this small town where there is almost no communication between people, there has been no reaction for the time being, so there is no way to find out.

Just when Li Feng was about to be driven mad by the secrets and questions in his heart, he was about to go to the cave to find out.Finally, strange changes began to take place in the valley.

First of all, there are people who keep disappearing from the small town. Originally, no one in this small town cares about others.Only Li Feng, who is still sober and has nothing to do, will feel abnormal.

The first person who disappeared from Li Feng's sight was the old man who was going to give Li Feng a soul-locking porridge when he first entered the valley. It had been several days since he had walked the streets of the town with his burden.At first, Li Feng didn't pay much attention to it, but then the familiar faces gradually disappeared, and Li Feng realized that something was wrong. "What's going on, where are these people going?"

Just when Li Feng had doubts about the whereabouts of these people, there were bursts of ear-piercing wailing sounds in the air. This sound was very familiar to Li Feng. It was that night when he heard the strange beast in the cave. sound.

After a few days of whining sounded on the outskirts of the forest, it entered the center of the town. "Woo~woo~" The voice became more and more high-pitched, but it was mixed with countless sorrows and desolation.

Only three days after the sound entered the town, Li Feng found that the eyes of the remaining old people in the town had changed, became hollow, and became dull. Not to be obsessed with medical skills similar to self-mutilation.

And Li Feng also felt that his spirit was getting more and more in a trance amidst the wailing, as if the sound would take his soul away.Every time at this time, there will be a sharp pain in the chest, which makes Li Feng's mind slightly clearer.

"Woo~woo~" Finally, five days after the wailing sound hovered over the small town, everyone's souls seemed to be hollowed out.He walked in one direction involuntarily, but that pace was like a walking corpse.His legs and feet were stiff and his eyes were empty, as if his soul was being summoned by something.

"Where are these people going? Is... is it finally going to start?" Li Feng looked at the direction of the group of people in the small town, with deep worry in his eyes.
