Chapter 71 Chapter 71: The Monument of Seven Kills

There is something strange in it, Wei Ning secretly thought, and started to advance along the entrance of the cave.The hole is not long, only about ten meters.After exiting the cave, there is a huge valley. There is a towering tree growing in the valley. By the moonlight, it looks like it is about 20 to 30 meters high.It's just surrounded by fog, so it can't be seen clearly. The yin here is so heavy that it has been atomized. Could it be the legendary Ghost Valley?Wei Ning thought.He took out the cow's tears given by Ma Yi's mother-in-law from his arms, and applied it to his eyes. When he opened his eyes, Wei Ning was suddenly terrified by everything in front of him, and took a deep breath.

It turned out that there were corpses nailed to the tree all over the place, all nailed through the throat with locust wood nails, some of them had turned into skeletons, and they were still wearing clothes that had not been completely weathered, and it was unclear which dynasty they belonged to.In the middle of the tree, a large piece of bark was peeled off, and a line of bright red characters was vaguely written on it: All things are born to support people, and no one is good enough to repay the sky, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill. Monument of Seven Kills?How can there be such things here?

The "Seven Killing Monument" is a rumor about Zhang Xianzhong, the leader of the peasant uprising in the late Ming Dynasty, which has been circulated among the people for a long time.It is said that Zhang Xianzhong killed people like grass, and he even erected a stele to mark his ambition, writing "All things are born with people, and no one is connected with heaven, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill." This is the famous "Seven Killing Monument". Wei Ning estimated that there were 10,000 to 20,000 corpses crucified on the tree alone, and there were countless broken limbs piled up under the tree, it was impossible to calculate.

This is probably a group of people who died at the hands of Zhang Xianzhong back then. At that time, Zhang Xianzhong was afraid that these people would come to him for revenge after they died, so he nailed them to a tree, locked their souls with locust trees, and put them on the tree again. The "Seven Kills Monument" was erected to suppress the yin energy with murderous energy, the purpose is to prevent them from being reborn forever. No wonder it's so cloudy here. Wei Ning opened the little red umbrella that he carried, covered himself, and walked slowly into the valley. Suddenly, there was a sound from nowhere, Wei Ning's heart trembled, he found a tree where he could hide, and hid behind.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo up" the voice became louder and then softer again, "ooohhh..." Another sound! "Woo..." Another sound! "Woo..." Another sound!Voices began to come from all directions, and a group of people walked towards the big tree from a distance. The leaders are two big-headed dolls, about three or four years old, wearing red clothes, braided into the sky, each holding a white paper lantern, even the light is slightly blue, and their cheeks are painted Two balls of fiery red rouge.A group of more than a dozen "people" followed, all of them were wearing white one-piece clothes, and the four "people" wearing round and pointed top hats behind them carried a sedan chair, but the sedan chair was also made of white paper. Yes, there are a few large strings of white flowers hanging from the top, followed by an old-fashioned wedding procession, ranging from musicians, bearers to bearers of the ceremony.

Wei Ning counted, and said: "Today is really the day when the Ghost King gets married. I didn't expect that I would catch up with him by mistake." Wei Ning waited for the welcoming team to approach, got up, and quietly stood at the back of the welcoming team.The wedding party continued to move forward, Wei Ning took advantage of their inattention, covered the mouth of the little devil at the end, and dragged the little devil behind a pile of boulders. When the little ghost saw Wei Ning, his eyes showed a look of horror. Obviously, he would not find that there were "people" in this valley. He started screaming strangely, and Wei Ning quickly covered his mouth.

Wei Ning made a silent gesture with the other hand, pulled out a mahogany sword from the handle of the little red umbrella, and shook it in front of the little ghost. open. "Tell me, what day is today?" Wei Ning's lips trembled, and he uttered a series of strange notes, which were the common "nonsense" in the ghost world. Wei Ning usually needs to learn Yinwen and draw talismans, so he naturally learned "ghost stories" about dealing with ghosts from Wang Tuozi. The little ghost turned his head away, and did not answer Wei Ning's question, his mouth was still tight.Wei Ning smiled, took out a lamp from his arms, and lit it against the wind.When the little ghost saw the lamp, his expression turned pale, and he desperately wanted to blow it out, but no matter how the little ghost blew it, the flame never wavered and the lamp never went out.

It turns out that this lamp is lit with sun fire, which is specially used to deal with these dirty things. Therefore, ordinary ghosts are very afraid, thinking that it is the sun, and when they see the lamp, they usually desperately want to blow it out. This is also the origin of the legendary "ghost blowing lamp". Here comes the history. The little ghost seemed to feel that he was hot, and he kept screaming strangely.Wei Ning repeated the original words again, and the little ghost obviously succumbed, and replied: "Today is the day when the Eighth King gets married, and we all greet the Eighth King."

"The ghost king is married?" Wei Ning asked with a heartbeat, "Who is the bride?" The little ghost shook his head and said: "Only the Eight Great Kings know this, we only know about welcoming relatives." Wei Ning knew that it would be useless to ask this kid again at this time, and asked, "Where is the Eighth King?" The little ghost pointed to the back of the big tree and said, "It's right there." Wei Ning smiled slightly and said, "Lead the way."
