Chapter 56: Split into Two, the Man-Eating Kiln
There is a legend circulating on the grassland that an ancient overlord has cast a curse.
Everyone will be trapped here, unable to escape.
That overlord was called the 'Sun God', and his body was buried where the grassland met the sky, so close that it seemed as if he could touch the sky directly.
Ajiri never thought that anyone could break into that area.
She lowered her head and said to Wu Enqi, "Go prepare three bowls of milk tea."
Wu Enqi nodded, turned around and ran inside.
On this side, Liang Yuzhou had some guesses in his mind after hearing what Ajili said.
The current situation must have occurred because of where the master and the others have gone.
The residents of the town were in such a panic that they must have found the location of the evil ghost.
Ajili looked at Liang Yuzhou and the other two and explained, "If you eat food from the town where the Sun Never Sets, you'll vomit it out after drinking the milk tea."
She didn't tell the three people that the sheep raised in the town of 'The Sun Never Sets' were all transformed from humans.
…
The black water squeezed his body, and Yu Qing emitted a faint light all over his body.
Until a minute later, her feet felt empty and the water that wrapped around her body disappeared.
Yu Qing landed steadily on the ground and looked up. The black water seemed to be blocked by a transparent barrier and not a drop flowed down.
There were hairless creatures stuck to the surface of the water. They were monsters with human faces and fish bodies.
At this time, the human faces of them were close to the water surface, as if they wanted to see where the people below had gone.
Yu Qing looked away. In front of her was a dark passage with torches on both sides.
It is 'it' that guides Yu Qing in the direction.
Yu Qing walked along the passage lit by torches. The road ahead seemed to have no end in sight.
After walking about two kilometers, I could faintly hear the voice of "people".
"Are we really going to do this?"
"My Lord said that we must root out the weeds at the root. If we keep his children, who knows if he will come back in the future?"
The voice came from behind her. Yu Qing looked in the direction of the sound and saw her back leaning against the wall.
Two men of similar height, wearing strange clothes, were walking towards this side.
Yu Qing paused for a moment and did not make a move.
The two men seemed not to see her, walked past her while talking, and walked into the dark passage.
She hesitated for a moment, then followed the two men, keeping a safe distance.
"But he's quite pitiful. He supported us, yet was betrayed..."
"How dare you say such things?" The man on the right snorted coldly, "The victor is the king and the loser is the bandit. It's his fate to be defeated by you, sir. It's his fault for not wanting to give up power!"
"I just feel sorry for him. After all, he was once a brave warrior and used his life to protect us."
"Okay, don't say that again. You're not afraid of being heard by the adults."
The person on the left sighed lightly. He was not as cold and heartless as the person on the right.
But I just felt sad for that person in my heart.
If he really wanted to do something, he wouldn't dare to do it.
"We're here."
The person on the left forgot his sorrow upon hearing the sound and pushed open a stone door with him.
There was a slight friction sound when the stone door was pushed open. Under the dim light of the torch, several people could be vaguely seen lying inside.
The man on the right lit the torch in the cave, and the firelight finally revealed the scene inside.
There were two women and three men lying on the ground, all of them breathing weakly.
Yu Qing was standing at the edge of the cave entrance, and no one noticed her presence.
On the left, there is something that looks like a monster's head, with its mouth wide open and its sharp teeth clearly visible.
On the right are two two-meter-high wooden boards facing each other, with a saw placed next to them.
There was a gap between the two wooden boards, which was just big enough for the saw to fit in.
Yu Qing suddenly thought of a cruel punishment mentioned in history books.
It's very similar to this.
But she had never seen a real picture and was not sure if it was the same kind.
She had previously told Qin Zhi the legend of the grassland, the never-setting sun.
The overlord married a beautiful wife who gave birth to the youngest princess on the grassland.
He also has three handsome sons.
Yu Qingqian cast a cold gaze at the five people on the ground. The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit?
So they fabricated a false charge to cover up their own sins.
It's really ridiculous.
The legend is false, but the curse is real.
It seems that the residents of the town are not innocent at all.
——Urentuya slowly opened her eyes, and through the light of the torch she saw the two men standing there.
Her voice was hoarse and she spoke with difficulty: "You will go to hell..."
"Whether we will go to hell is still unknown, but you will definitely go to hell today."
Wuren Tuya looked at the person who spoke, who was the man on the right at the beginning.
She tugged at her cracked lips and said sarcastically, "Bozhite, do you think that if you kill us, Zana will let you go?"
"He won't allow himself to leave any stain, but it's only a matter of time!"
Borit seemed to have heard a joke and couldn't help laughing a few times.
He walked up to Wuren Tuya and stepped hard on her foot.
Seeing that she was gritting her teeth and refusing to let go and cry out in pain, he felt bored and moved his foot away.
"My honorable Khatun, your idea is too naive."
Borit squatted in front of her with a vicious look in his eyes.
I really want to see if she would feel some pain if she knew that all her people knew about it.
"You and your children should go down first today. Your loved ones will be there to accompany you soon."
However, the result was destined to disappoint him.
Wuren Tuya was stunned for a moment, then smiled indifferently.
"Hahaha--"
Borit grabbed her hair and pulled it back: "What are you laughing at?"
"Kill everyone at all costs...Haha...Are you that afraid of us?"
Wuren Tuya was extremely sad in her heart, but her face remained noble and cold.
As his wife, she never loses her beauty even when she laughs.
He sacrificed his life to protect his people, went to the battlefield himself, and never regretted it until the last moment.
But it was those people who betrayed him!
Bozhite completely lost the desire to tease, turned around and said to the person behind him: "Go ahead."
The man behind him frowned and hesitated for a moment before helping him to drag the still unconscious person up from the ground.
Place the person between two wooden boards, tie them up tightly, then put the saw teeth on them and have each person hold one side.
They wanted Wuren Tuya to witness the child's torture and death before they could be tortured themselves.
Yu Qing did not continue watching the following scene, she turned her back to the cave.
A new passage appeared on the left and she walked into it.
A shrill scream echoed from the cave, echoing in the darkness and lingering for a long time...
…
Liang Yuzhou, Chen Yingyu and Cheng Yunbao were sitting at the table with three bowls of milk tea in front of them.
They ate the dry food they brought with them and did not easily believe Ajiri's words.
