Chapter 193 My childhood sweetheart can’t be a fool! (29)

On the wall hangs the fur of an animal, which looks like a wolf or a dog.

In the middle is an altar, and no one knows why it was set up, but it looks like a strange ritual.

In the center of the altar is an animal’s head, which is well preserved, with gray eyes and gray fangs, showing the wildness of a beast to the visitors.

This head is enshrined on a dried pool of blood, but there is a pool of fresh blood in it. This should be what Jia Ran did when he found this place alone not long ago and used it to awaken the curse.

In this space, there are dried bloodstains everywhere. No one knows how many lives have been sacrificed here. The atmosphere is depressing and the air is gloomy, making people feel uncomfortable from the bottom of their hearts.

Just in front of them, a figure is sitting in a wheelchair.

Qi Xiao shouted: "Father!"

He was anxious to show his filial piety and rushed over first. He turned the wheelchair around and saw a dried corpse. He was so scared that he fell to the ground.

Everyone was shocked.

Qi Yuan looked at Butler He, "What on earth is going on?"

Butler He said calmly: "Every sixty years, the head of the family changes, and every time there is a change, only one person in the Qi family can survive. Only this person can walk in here to hold a ceremony to inherit the position of head of the family. The person who can walk into this basement is naturally the most powerful person in the Qi family."

Butler He looked at the others, "The ceremony is over. After the ceremony, the soul of the previous head of the family will have a healthy new container. "

Qi Xingyun asked: "What do you mean by this?"

Butler He said: "Since the first ceremony began, every new head of the family has been the same person. The corpses in this blood pool are all members of the Qi family from generation to generation."

This matter was too unbelievable and too terrifying. Many people present did not react for a while.

They were fighting for the position of the heir of the Qi family, thinking that they could become the heir of the Qi family with unlimited glory, but in fact they were just sending themselves to the gibbet.

Qi Yuan's expression was stunned. He looked at the dry corpse, "Aren't we his children?"

Butler He said indifferently: "Is there family affection among the Qi family?"

Yes.

Didn't Qi Yuan never give Qi Ye any fatherly love?

Qi Yuan looked unhappy.

Qi Xiao trembled and said, "Then, how did my father become like this?"

Butler He lowered his eyes to hide the emotions in his eyes. "The old man is in poor health and has needed medical equipment to maintain his vital signs for many years. His condition worsened some time ago and he could no longer bear it, but he planned everything before he died. This is something I only found out later."

Qi Xingyun stared at Butler He, and he also looked at her, but soon retracted his gaze.

If they didn't know the existence of the basement, they would be affected by the power of the curse in this mansion and kill each other, and then only the last person would walk in here with a beautiful dream.

But I don't know which link went wrong, and they knew the rules of this cruel game in advance.

Qi Xiao was facing the threat of death. He said excitedly: "As long as we destroy this altar, the curse will not work, right?"

As he said that, he rushed over and kicked over the altar. Suddenly, the flashlights of several people went out and the basement fell into complete darkness.

Qi Xiao shouted: "What's going on...ah!"

His scream was like turning on a switch, and there was a crazy movement around him.

Qi Xiao was stabbed in the waist. He took out a lighter and grabbed Yin Mo, who was closest to him, by the light. "Bitch! You want to kill me!"

Yin Mo was shaking. "I didn't! I didn't!"

Qi Xiao said angrily: "I want you and your bastard to die!"

Yin Mo was struggling, and saw a figure approaching quickly. Qi Xiao was grabbed by the head and smashed against the wall. Before the fire went out, he seemed to see that the person was Ruan Fannan.

At the same time, the basement, which had been in disrepair for a long time, also made a sound of shattering and collapse.

Qi Xingyun was grabbed by the man's hand and ran out.

Bai Yao and Qi Ye came at the moment when the flashlight went out. There was chaos all around. Qi Ye held Bai Yao and wanted to take her away.

However, Bai Yao shook off his hand and ran forward directly according to her feeling.

Qi Ye was in darkness and his vision was not affected. He rushed over to pull Bai Yao back, but saw her bending down and holding something.

She couldn't see anything in the darkness, and could only hear the sound of something falling. When she turned around, she couldn't tell the direction. The noise above her head made her subconsciously hold the thing in her arms tightly. The next moment, she was pulled into a familiar embrace.

At the same time, a piece of wood fell to where she was standing.

Bai Yao called out: "Qi Ye!"

Qi Ye didn't say anything. He hugged her very tightly, then took off his coat and wrapped her up, then lifted her up horizontally, dodging the falling objects quickly and powerfully, jumping over obstacles one after another, and carrying her through the dark passage.

Bai Yao could hear the sound of the wind because he was running too fast. Of course, in such a dark environment, it is impossible for a normal person to run as if all kinds of dangers don't exist.

Rather than saying that humans are running away, it is more like wild animals galloping in the mountains.

Bai Yao's heartbeat was so strong that she couldn't see anything, but she could feel the warmth of his chest. No matter how cold the wind was, her wrapped body was warm.

The stairs were about to collapse.

He Ming was the one who was most familiar with the basement among this group of people. He brought Qi Xingyun to the stairs first. Qi Xingyun was particular about refinement, and it was inconvenient for her to wear high heels. She asked He Ming to let her go several times, but he didn't let go. He only said: "The road here is not easy to walk on. It's the road's fault, not the lady's fault."

He held Qi Xingyun's wrist tightly, which reminded her of their youth. He never dared to grab her hard, even when they were hanging out in the wine cellar, he didn't dare to violate the pitiful rules.

She raised her head, unable to see anything clearly, "You solved it."

He Ming replied, "Yes."

The Qi family's ancestors trained wolves and raised dogs. Perhaps old man Qi always thought that he could train every dog ​​well. In fact, this was true. Every housekeeper of the Qi family was loyal to the old man.

Perhaps Grandpa Qi, who has raised dogs for countless generations, has never thought that he would be bitten by a dog one day.

Like everyone else in the Qi family, He Ming has been afraid of Grandpa Qi's majesty since he was a child. Grandpa Qi is not just a father and master in the Qi family. He is a shadow in everyone's heart, and no one has the courage to resist him.
