Chapter 67 The Ancient Pagoda
Chapter 67 The Ancient Pagoda
From a distance, came an old man with gray beard and disheveled hair. The old man was leaning on a cane. He was not tall and had a ball head.
His gray clothes were so dirty that the original color could not be seen clearly.The top is worn and short brown, and the bottom is the trousers that ordinary peasants and soldiers are used to wearing, but the top is patched too much, and it is almost becoming "hundreds of trousers".
When the old man saw He Miao, he opened his squinted eyes.Immediately, he saw the big pancakes being baked by the fire in He Miao's hand, and sniffed hard, the air was filled with the smell of big pancakes.
"Little girl, let me discuss with you, old man, I have been hungry all night, how about giving me a piece of pancake?"
The old man took a step forward, his eyes were full of smiles, and the creases squeezed out of his wrinkles could kill a fly.
Seeing that the surname was not Zhang, He Miao breathed a sigh of relief.
I looked the old man up and down, and I was sure that this country can be seen everywhere, and the ordinary old man would not do me any harm, so I smiled and said:
"Okay. Wait a moment, I'll bake the other side."
He Miao lacked everything, the only thing he didn't lack was big cakes.In her wooden hairpin, the most hoarded pancakes.
When He Miao was roasting the pancake up and down in the fire, the old man squinted his eyes and stood less than three feet away from He Miao, looking at He Miao carefully.
"Come on, old man."
He Miao baked the pancake until both sides were golden and warm, and then he stretched out his hand to greet the old man.
The old man narrowed his eyes, and with a smile on his face, he said suddenly: "Girl, you should throw it over, old man, I dare not go over."
It was only then that He Miao noticed that the array arranged beside him had not been cancelled, and unexpectedly, the old man could see it.
Thinking of this, He Miao's eyes flashed a gloomy, it seems that this old man is not as simple as he looks on the surface.
"Little girl, this is an entry-level formation, although the arrangement is not bad. But I'm not afraid of this."
Unexpectedly, the old man actually directly explained what He Miao was thinking.
This made He Miao puzzled, he was not afraid of his formation, but what he was afraid of.
"Little girl, do you know where this is?"
The old man narrowed his eyes, raised his head and looked behind He Miao, a trace of sternness and suspicion flashed in his eyes.
Naturally, He Miao didn't know, she went to the doctor in a hurry last night, and she didn't know the direction when she left.
She felt that she came from the human world, but the black mist that enveloped her last night made her suspicious again. Could it be that she came to the demon world by accident?
Shaking his head immediately, he pretended not to care and said, "Last night was dark and moonless, so I rested on the spot and didn't care."
Naturally, the scene of the desperate struggle with Zhang last night was hidden, and the strange black fog was not mentioned.
Seeing that the ignorant expression on He Miao's face did not seem to be fake, the old man sighed and said:
"You are the first one who can spend the night here unscathed, little girl. You really are ignorant and fearless."
He Miao looked back, and behind him was an ancient pagoda made of clay bricks, which had been in disrepair for a long time. The bricks were damaged in several places, the walls were broken, and there seemed to be traces of fire. The weeds were luxuriant, and few people came.
Now He Miao can confirm that this pagoda is by no means a Buddhist pagoda.
After all, if the pagoda is located, not to mention the blessing of gods and Buddhas, at least it will not be like last night, where the black mist prevails.
"I still hope to enlighten me."
He Miao couldn't figure out what this place was, so he threw a warm pancake to the old man, hoping that he would stop playing tricks and give some pointers.
The old man stretched out his hand and took the big cake straight.
He tore it apart, blew on the hot air, and stuffed two halves into his mouth without thinking, it seemed that he was very hungry.
Then he chewed and said inarticulately: "The little girl is... pretty, polite, and speaks like a scholar... Have you had breakfast yet?"
Another prevarication.
He Miao began to suspect that the old man didn't know what the tower was used for, but just to deceive himself into eating big cakes.
But seeing that he is not young anymore, with a thin body and dark skin, he looks like he is living and sleeping in the open. It is not easy to mix in the rivers and lakes at such an advanced age.
It was inconvenient to worry about it at the moment, so he just raised another big cake in his hand and said, "Here."
Seeing this, the old man nodded and said: "Eat first, don't worry, I will tell you after I ate your pie."
He Miao didn't care, even if the old man lied to her, as far as she was concerned, she would lose at most a pie.
She had also been hungry for a long time, and now she had a big appetite, and swallowed this big pie.
Looking back, the old man had already finished his big pie and was looking at him eagerly, obviously not full.
As a last resort, He Miao baked two more pancakes and threw one to the old man.
From the beginning to the end, the old man didn't take a step towards He Miao.Always stand three feet away from He Miao.
He Miao keenly observed that last night, when Zhang was attacked by the black mist, he was closer to her.
It seemed that the old man did know something.
Seeing that the old man had eaten and drank enough, his dry face seemed to relax, and now it was He Miao's turn to look at him eagerly.
He Miao really wanted to know where this place was, what that inexplicable ancient pagoda was for, and what was the black mist last night.
The old man looked at He Miao first, and after noticing the mahogany sword in He Miao's hand, he said, "No wonder."
Then he pointed to the towering tower behind him, with a dignified expression, and only opened his mouth to explain: "That's a baby tower."
"Baby Tower?"
He Miao suddenly realized, thinking of those piercing cries of babies last night, it seemed that this place was a gathering place for many babies who died young.
Most likely, the baby died and could not enter the ancestral grave, so the family members had to abandon it here.The soul cannot enter reincarnation, and can only wander here.
Thinking of this, He Miao nodded and said, "It seems that what I met last night were these unlucky infant spirits."
The old man nodded first, then shook his head, and said, "What you said is also right, and it's also not right."
He Miao blinked her eyes, she didn't understand, and waited for the old man's further explanation.
There wasn't even a hint of a smile on the old man's face, which made He Miao feel a little solemn, or sad?
"This is indeed where the babies who died young were located. Only these babies were not thrown in after they died, but were thrown in when they were alive." "This tower is not so much a baby tower as it is Yes, the Tower of Abandoned Baby Girls. Because all those thrown into it are baby girls, without exception."
What the old man said shocked He Miao, and He Miao was so shocked that he couldn't even speak.
"You see, the reason why this tower is built so high is because there are too many baby girls to be lost..."
"Look why there are traces of fire on the tower, it's because once it's full of baby girls, no matter if they're dead or alive, all of them will be burned..."
The old man kept talking, and in He Miao's ears, it seemed as if he had discovered something he had never heard before.
Not knowing what to think, she bent over and retched.
Really, really too cruel.
He Miao looked up, there was no ancient pagoda, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a hell on earth.
