How can you become a devil if you don't work?

Chapter 139 This bat was a human in life! (seeking subscription)

The sky is like ink.

Yellow candles lit up.

The thick night in the courtyard was dispelled.

Song Ruyuan and others all surrounded the two Sombras.

The expressions on their faces were extremely solemn, even slightly terrified.

Su Mo also folded his arms and frowned slightly.

At this moment, his mental strength has been pushed to the limit.

In this case, even if these two weirdos were a little bit flustered, they would not be able to escape his detection.

However, their narration did not reveal the slightest abnormality from beginning to end.

Clearly, they were all telling the truth.

This makes people feel very scary.

In the narration of Liu Hanyan and Liu Huayu, they came into contact with the unknown dark side of the Liu family.

Unlike the Han family, the Liu family produced a large number of masters, and there were many strong ones.

Unlike the Chen family, which has the inheritance of the high priest, it has mastered many secrets.

He used the saintess and sacrificial vessels as offerings to the sacred furnace, and just now he secured the position of the three major families.

Therefore, the entire Liu family attaches great importance to both of them.

Not to mention the sacred stove, there has always been a family secret on weekdays, and it is guarded by special guards.

Even if the head of the family wants to mobilize the sacred stove, he has to go through as many as three procedures, and the use of it is strictly supervised by the family elders.

Only the saintesses can temporarily control the sacred stove when the ceremony really starts.

From this perspective, the status of the saint seems to be higher than that of the head of the family.

This is not the case.

The authority of the head of the family is far beyond what the saint can compare.

But apart from the Patriarch, the Saintess is already considered a privileged class of the Han family.

Even the alternate saintesses who are ranked below the saintesses can enjoy the power far beyond ordinary girls of the Han family.

Including but not limited to the right to refuse to marry, to enjoy better food, a high monthly salary, and even some medicinal products, etc.

Therefore, many girls of the Han family, especially those from a poor family, all flock to it.

But it is not that simple to become a saint.

The entire Han family, including the main family and branch families, has a population of several thousand.

There are at least 400 school-age girls who are eight years old.

But in the end, there is only one person who can become a saint.

Counting the alternate saintesses under the saintess, there are only nine people in total.

It seems that the probability is not low.

But the actual selection process often takes years and months.

Many girls have been trained in the direction of a saint since childhood.

In the process of nurturing and screening, people will be constantly eliminated.

It can be said that Liu Hanyan and Liu Huayu have put in a lot of effort to break through the siege all the way and become alternate saintesses.

From this, it is completely possible to imagine why they are still so persistent in the position of saintess after death.

And the weirdness and secrets they told were related to the selection of the saintess.

According to the two of them, the Han family's selection of saintesses is extremely strict and harsh.

They will arrange for all girls to undergo different levels of assessment in order of age.

And graded according to the examination results.

This kind of scoring is not one-time, but balanced to each month, every week or even every day.

Finally, the annual results will be aggregated to judge whether they are eligible to enter the next round.

Because of this extremely harsh test, the nerves of all the girls who participated in the selection of saints were tense.

They seldom have the happy and fun time of outside children, and they fall into depression and even go crazy every year, and suicide is not uncommon.

But the strange thing is, whether it is madness or suicide, it can always be saved in the end.

But after they are rescued, their temperaments often change drastically.

Liu Hanyan once had a friend who hanged himself to death because he was reprimanded by the instructor.

She even untied the other party's cold body from the rope with her own hands.

But the person who had died long ago, after being taught to take him away, came back to life the next day.

According to the instructor, they train day and night, their bodies and souls have been marked by the God of Saturn, and they can be easily saved even if they die.

At that time, Liu Hanyan only thought it was incredible, and even thought that the god of agriculture was worthy of being a god, and he could even resurrect the dead.

But afterwards, that little friend's behavior made her feel panicked.

She had always been gentle and demure, but she seemed to be a different person after she came back to life, with a moody temper, throwing bowls and glasses at every turn.

Moreover, she was only a vegetarian before, but after she came back from the dead, she began to eat meat.

It would be fine if it was just eating meat in general, Liu Hanyan once saw her eat a chicken raw.

Later, even the other party looked at her with an undisguised appetite.

Just when Liu Hanyan was about to report in horror, that little friend was eliminated by the selection of the saint.

Later, the contact gradually became less and less, and I heard that she was married to a certain street vendor, and she seemed to be living a stable life.

It wasn't until two days before the ceremony that she ran to inquire about it on a whim.

As a result, the people around had never heard of that vendor, and even her little friend seemed to have disappeared from the world.

If the evidence given by Liu Hanyan can only show the abnormality of the Han family.

Then what Liu Huayu said next seemed even more terrifying.

Her narrative is also related to the selection of the saint.

The difference was that she focused on an institution called the Correctional Facility.

Those who participate in the selection of saintesses are all young girls, and there will always be some stubborn people.

The Han family has also specially prepared a corresponding management organization for this purpose.

That is the correctional facility.

Girls who behave badly are often sent to correctional institutions for punishment.

Liu Huayu was also lively and active when she was young, and one day she accidentally violated the rules and was sent to a correctional center for reprimand.

There she came into contact with a tiny corner of the dark side of the Han family by chance.

The correctional facility has three floors.

The basement level is generally used to punish girls who have committed minor crimes.

On the second basement floor is the felony.

As for the third basement floor, almost no one came out.

Liu Huayu entered the basement floor, where she was subjected to unimaginable torture including waterboarding.

But that alone wasn't enough to scare her.

What really sent a chill down her spine was that she overheard the conversation of the punishers on the third floor underground.

During the dialogue, extremely special punishments such as the punishment of spiritual fat and the punishment of mermaid were mentioned.

Among them, the punishment of spiritual fertilizer is to turn people into fertilizer and use them to plant trees.

The mermaid punishment is to turn people into fat fish for stewing.

At one point, she thought it was an auditory hallucination in her trance.

Until later, she ate an unusually delicious fish fillet at a family banquet.

Then she remembered that a certain spot on the fish was very similar to the birthmark on her sister.

But before that, including herself, and even the people around her, they didn't remember that she had a younger sister at all.

Reflexively, Liu Huayu wanted to run home and ask her parents.

She finally suppressed her panic and waited until the banquet was over.

However, when the banquet was over, she forgot what she was going to do.

He even forgot that he had a sister.

Listening to Liu Huayu finished talking about these things with a blank face.

The surrounding Yao Wenkai and others felt chills in their backs.

They thought the world was dangerous enough right now.

But ancient societies didn't look much better.

Such horrible things can happen in a remote village and town alone.

It is difficult to imagine any other unusual state of affairs elsewhere.

But no matter what, that is already a thing of the past.

And now, they are about to unravel the puzzle here and draw an end to the countless undead wandering here.

After a moment of silence, after everyone had digested the information provided by the two alternate saintesses, Su Mo said:
"Well, anyway, it's still early in the daytime, let's check the underground correctional facility first, and see if we can get any other useful information, maybe we can have a deeper understanding of the ceremony, the Han family cultivated holy There must be other deep meaning behind the woman."

When everyone heard this, there was nothing they could do.

Before setting off, Su Mo chose Liu Huayu as the saint on the spot.

Facing the strongly dissatisfied Liu Hanyan, he directly knocked her unconscious with his mental power and sealed him up.

Of course, Liu Huayu was chosen not because she provided more and more effective information.

It's all because of her looks that are more acceptable.

At least there will be no more flying and crawling flies around.

After the matter here was over, a group of people walked directly to the location of the punishment station.

When I came nearby, I saw a ruined pavilion.

Su Mo was too lazy to clean up slowly, and directly used his talent for manipulating the air to form a giant hand.

Grab the ruins including the entire land on the spot, and open up the basement on the spot.

The vast underground space immediately appeared in front of everyone.

Although they are different in strength, they have different night vision.

But even Zhuo Ningning, who has the worst night vision, can clearly see the cruel scene in the underground space.

I saw that the huge underground space was divided into small compartments.

There are many old torture tools in each cubicle, or the whole room is built into a special torture room.

Just looking at this scene, many people only felt chills in their hearts, and goosebumps appeared on their skin, as if they could all feel the pain of being punished.

"It seems that this correctional center is a bit different from what Liu Huayu said. It's not only the saintess reserves who are punished, but obviously other people are also included, and they may even be people outside the Han family."

Su Mo looked at the thin bones left in one of the torture chambers and said.

It was obviously the skeleton of an old man, covered with a layer of patched coarse cloth, it didn't look like the Han family, and it was unknown what mistakes they had made to be punished here.

However, according to Liu Huayu, the punishment at this level is fairly simple.

Although in the obvious sense, waterboarding or other punishments of the same level can be said to be torture applicable to felonies.

But if punishment like the mermaid punishment really existed, torture like waterboarding might be acceptable.

Su Mo jumped into the flipped basement and walked straight to the passage on the side.

Seeing this, the people behind also jumped down.

As soon as they entered the basement, everyone clearly felt a chill.

In addition to being underground, this is obviously also related to the countless resentments condensed here.

Ordinary people are afraid that alienation will occur if they stay here for a long time.

This shows the weight of the resentment that once stayed here.

Song Ruyuan frowned and looked around.

He looked around for a while, without saying anything, raised his hand and took out a few Zhengqing talisman seals, and struck in all directions.

The talisman ignited, sending out magnificent invisible fluctuations, like a scorching sun scorching snow, and the resentment condensed underground instantly dissipated.

Su Mo didn't care about other people's movements, and walked straight down the stairs, and bumped into a spooky white-haired creature head-on.

He beheaded it casually.

Seeing a few more monsters rushing forward, Yao Wenkai and others behind them all eagerly went to kill them.

Instead, let him relax.

Taking this opportunity, Su Mo began to look around.

The second basement floor is different from the upper floor, and there are no prison tools for punishment.

Although they are still small compartments, these compartments look more like special prison cells.

"Didn't it mean that the punishment for serious crimes is more severe? What's going on here? Are serious criminals just locked up underground?"

Soon, Su Mo knew that this idea was outrageously wrong.

Because he saw an alienated skeleton left in the cell.

There were many bony spurs on the man's bones, at first glance it looked like a big tree with countless branches.

The further back, the more common such alienated skeletons are.

Some had another skull growing out of their necks.

Some foot bones dissimilated into hoofed feet.

Some have wings growing from their shoulder blades.

……

The design of the entire second basement looks like a large biological laboratory.

Those cubicles are obviously separate laboratories.

Su Mo could even imagine the tragic scene of those prisoners who committed serious crimes being used as experiments.

The so-called felony is actually only relative to the Han family.

Maybe it's nothing to the outside world.

Su Mo's gaze slowly moved away from a skeleton with two horns growing from the top of its head.

He stood where he was, and couldn't help but fell into thinking:
"There are so many alienated skeletons here, so are the girls who came back from the dead related to this?"

"Why did the Han family conduct such an experiment?"

"What kind of means did they use to induce human alienation?"

The answers to all these questions are hidden in the fog, making it hard to understand.

But what can be known is that the three underground floors must hide part of the answers related to it.

Thinking in his heart, Su Mo stepped forward and continued to walk forward.

But at this moment, a scream suddenly came from the front.

Immediately afterwards, Song Ruyuan raised his hand and beheaded a half-human-sized rotten bat.

"Why is there such a ghost on the second basement floor?"

Looking at the extremely powerful grimacing bat exuding a strong stench, Yao Wenkai was filled with shock and anger.

"This bat is not a product of the second underground floor, it came up from a deeper place!"

Song Ruyuan looked at the deep passage downwards in the distance, his brows were tightly frowned.

"A bat? This is no ordinary bat."

As Su Mo said, he stepped forward.

He looked at the crazy and surly rotten bat, and sighed:
"This bat was a human in life!"
