Chapter 435 What Happened in the Village Back Then
"Until one day, a few strangers suddenly came and bought a room in our village. It was the last room at the far east end of the village. These people were very strange. They never went out. When they did, they would just fetch water or buy things. They didn't get too close to others. At the time, we didn't think too much about it. But then strange things started happening. People in the village would disappear for no reason, and we couldn't even find their remains."
First the elderly, then the children, then the young women, and finally even the able-bodied men would disappear without a trace. In just one month, more than thirty people went missing from the village. In those days, no one was in charge of our village. We cried out to heaven and earth, but no one answered. We tried every possible method, but we couldn't find any reason.
In less than a year, everyone in the village either died from poisoning or from being burned alive. I was the last person to die in the village. That night, a huge fire suddenly broke out, burning almost everyone who remained alive. From then on, the village became a ghost town.
Tang Wan'er finally understood why she hadn't understood when she first entered the village.
Then I felt a surge of heat; it turned out that a fire had occurred here years ago.
In cases where a fire has occurred and many people have died, a phenomenon called "yin fire" will eventually emerge.
Even a person with abundant yang energy would feel a strong heat while walking on such a street, but would not be able to see anything. Therefore, it is called yin fire, which is fire from the underworld.
Such things are rare for them. Usually, they only encounter the death of a few people or even the extermination of an entire family, but they have never heard of a village being massacred.
Everyone who heard about this was furious, and they probably knew that it must have been those strangers who entered the village and did it.
"And then what happened? Who were those strangers? Where did those people who had disappeared go?"
"We don't know who those strangers were, but after we all died, they were still alive and well, and they started experimenting on us dead souls."
We don't know exactly what kind of experiment it was, or what those people were doing.
Their goal is to kill us all and then collect our souls to do things for them.
For some reason, their experiments kept failing. Every time they conducted an experiment, we had to endure immense suffering—either being struck by lightning, flooded, or burned. We'd had enough of this and wanted to leave this hellhole immediately!
Shen Kun thought about it for a moment, and realized that he had indeed seen such an evil technique in an ancient book before.
However, she didn't pay much attention at the time, only glancing at it casually. After all, she didn't intend to practice evil magic, so these things were useless to her. She just flipped through them out of curiosity, and now they match up perfectly with what's in front of her.
The village chief continued, "Some of our bodies were buried underwater, so after these people disappeared, we couldn't find them. They dived to the bottom of the water and tied us to big rocks so that we wouldn't be discovered."
Tang Wan'er suddenly realized why there were so many ghosts in the river.
