Strange national destiny: My Chinese-style horror scares the world
Chapter 187 The Dead City
Picking up the paper money stuck on his shoes, Su Yi looked behind him and did not see the old woman following him.
After thinking for a while, he stuffed the paper money into his pocket and continued walking towards the city.
As he walked, he saw a temple on the side of the road.
This was something he had seen in a strange landscape painting in reality.
The strange landscape painting has two faces. One is a normal painting in the real world, and the other is a strange painting seen in the underworld after the strange lantern is lit.
In the normal scroll, everyone is in human form, but in the weird scroll, their original weird appearance is revealed.
He remembered that in the normal painting, there was a woman in white clothes next to the temple.
But on the Netherworld scroll, it was a completely different scene.
The woman in white turned into a piece of human skin, floating in the air. It was only a thin layer on the outside, and the inside was empty. It was very scary.
Just when Su Yi was thinking, a pretty woman in white clothes suddenly walked out of the temple.
After seeing Su Yi, she lowered her head shyly.
"Sir, please come in and sit down."
Su Yi was startled when he heard this, and immediately quickened his pace and left.
If you are someone who doesn't know the inside story, or if you don't observe the strange landscape painting carefully,
Then I am afraid that I will really be confused by the appearance of the woman in front of me.
I thought I would have a romantic encounter.
But Su Yi knew that this was not a human being at all, but a ghost in human skin.
If I follow the other party into this dilapidated temple, I don’t know what will happen to me.
"It's really a dangerous world."
Along the way, more and more people appeared on the road.
People looked at Su Yi with strange eyes.
After all, his clothes were strange.
What was even more strange was that in broad daylight, he was holding a lantern in his hand and holding the hand of a woman.
But no one spoke to Su Yi, they just looked at him and left.
This made Su Yi feel relieved.
It seems that he, a living person, will not be found abnormal in this world. This may be related to the female corpse beside him, or it may be related to the strange lantern in his hand.
Thinking of this, he glanced at the candle in the strange lantern again.
Now he was sure that the candle would never burn out.
Because at least twenty minutes had passed since he entered the world in the painting, but during such a long time, the candle showed no sign of shortening.
There was even no wax dripping, which was very abnormal.
It is possible that this candle will not burn out.
This should be the special feature of strange items.
After entering the ghost city, it was very lively and full of people.
There are hawkers hawking their wares, children jumping around, and farmers wearing straw hats carrying vegetables, which is full of the breath of life.
However, when seeing so many people, Su Yi did not feel the lively and popular atmosphere at all. Instead, his body became stiff and he was a little confused.
The scene before my eyes did appear in a normal painting, and it looked just like the Qingming Shanghe Tu, full of life and energy.
However, in the strange scroll seen in the underworld, this city is a dead city, with dead bodies everywhere, filling the city. It is a ghost city.
So these so-called "people" before our eyes, don't even think about it, they are not people at all, but ghosts.
So the more "people" there are, the more scared Su Yi becomes.
He is now like a sheep entering a pack of wolves, which is very dangerous.
Fortunately, these ghosts had no intention of attacking him, otherwise, no matter how many cards he had, he would be eaten to the bone in the blink of an eye.
"Maybe I should leave. Why do I always have a bad feeling?"
As Su Yi walked, he became more and more uneasy.
Although everything seemed normal at the moment and he was safe, he still felt something was wrong and that he should probably leave as soon as possible.
No matter how safe or normal this place is, it cannot escape the fact that
That is, this is not the real world at all, but a world in the underworld, a world in a painting.
If you stay too long, something unforeseen might happen.
For example, if you stay in the world in the painting for too long, you may become a native of this place forever and never be able to leave.
As a designer of weird copies, Su Yi is very familiar with these rules. That is why he is full of awe for weirdness.
"It's so lively up front, what happened?"
At this time, there was a crowd on the roadside, and no one knew what they were doing, so someone asked the people around them.
"Don't you know what day it is today? There's a prisoner being executed at Caishikou, and everyone's rushing over to watch the excitement! If you're lucky, you might even get a piece of meat!"
An old man with a sallow complexion and weed-like hair, who looked to be in his forties or fifties, said with a smile,
He smiled, revealing several missing yellow teeth.
Su Yi's scalp went numb after hearing this. He knew that in ancient times, after beheading a criminal, their meat might be sold as a commodity.
But I didn't expect it would actually happen, and I encountered it myself.
As a person who grew up in a modern civilized society, he could not stand such a scene and wanted to leave immediately.
But the crowd around him was crowded and wanted to go and watch the fun, so he was pushed to the front.
"Are you kidding..."
Su Yi was 1.8 meters tall, standing out from the crowd, so he quickly spotted the Caishikou.
It is very similar to a copy of Caishikou that he once designed, except that it has added a lot of details and has a breath of life. It is much more realistic than the copy he designed.
In the middle of Caishikou stood a wooden platform, on which three people knelt, their hair disheveled, their hands and feet tightly bound, like dumplings.
A tall and strong man stood next to him, holding a knife in his hand and wiping it with a rag.
The crowd didn't dare to move forward and could only form an arc around. Many people held bowls, wondering if they would receive blood later.
At this moment, a middle-aged man in official uniform on the stage said something, but Su Yi couldn't hear it clearly because of the noise around him.
But then the strong man took a few steps forward with a knife, and then the three kneeling men began to tremble, and their crotches quickly became wet.
There was a "puff" sound, and a big head fell to the ground, and blood flowed like a fountain.
Then the strong man struck while the iron was hot and chopped off the heads of the remaining two people one after another.
The movements were as smooth as flowing water, and it looked like he had chopped off hundreds or thousands of heads.
The crowd cheered and wanted to move forward, but Su Yi stood still like a stone in the river.
A drop of blood had just splashed into his eyes, and they were burning with pain. His only way was to wash the blood away with tears.
But he was not worried about his eyes. He was worried whether there was any virus or something in the blood.
When the pain in his eyes subsided, he suddenly saw that the world before him had changed.
Perhaps because the blood hadn't been washed clean, the world he saw was completely different from before. Everything was filtered through a faint blood-red filter.
There weren't that many people around anymore, the ground was filled with corpses, and the air was filled with a strong stench of corpses.
The whole city seemed to have turned into a dead city.
