After saying that, he waved his hand, signaling her to follow him.
The torch in his hand crackled, and every now and then a spark would fly up.
Gu Zuozuo led her to the desolate backyard. With a tap of his toes on the ground, countless vines sprang up and snaked toward the hidden cellar.
In the blink of an eye, the carefully concealed things were completely uncovered by the vines.
One by one, the stone slabs were carried away by the vines, and the soil was rolled away by the vines. A pungent stench wafted over. Gu Zuozuo, whose five senses were very sensitive, had moved ahead to block out her sense of smell. However, Ma Su, who was standing next to her and was shocked by the vines, was completely unprepared and was knocked over by the smell, her face turning pale.
“Σ_(꒪ཀ꒪」∠) Ugh! ……Ugh”
What is this?!
Her tearful eyes widened as she looked toward the source of the smell, her shock as if she had seen a legendary ghost.
The area widened by the vines, having lost its cover, revealed the evil hidden within.
Rows of distorted skeletons lay scattered about, some sprawled, some lying down, their dark eye sockets silently gazing at the long-unseen night. The topmost skeletons were the not-yet-fully-decomposed bodies of girls and children.
Ma Su felt as if her throat was blocked with layers of cotton, unable to speak or swallow, and her eyes were red and swollen.
"These beasts!"
The vines carefully lifted the not-yet-completely-rotted corpse down. The girl was probably not even eighteen years old. Her face was swollen and congested with blood, her clothes were torn to shreds, and her hands and feet were twisted abnormally. The entire corpse appeared to be in a gigantic state.
The children's bodies varied in size, mostly girls, and their deaths were so gruesome that the two men nearly ground their teeth to dust at the sight.
The huge backyard was filled with skeletons, the oldest of which were even carbonized, indicating that more than ten years had passed.
"This is?"
The vines coiled around a star-shaped plaque, which was held in the palm of a skeleton; the iron material had begun to rust and rot.
Ma Su's expression changed slightly. She wrapped her hands in her clothes, took the plaque, and examined it carefully.
"This should be a red star brooch that became popular not long after the founding of the People's Republic of China. People who wear this are usually government officials..."
(This is made up by the author; don't take it seriously, or you'll lose.)
The two looked at each other, staring at the skeleton.
"Judging from the skeleton, it should be a man, but we don't know who he is."
Of the hundreds of skeletons on the surface, the majority were women, with children and infants making up a small portion of the remaining skeletons, and only two or three adult male skeletons.
brush!
Leopard, who tried to use the pain to stimulate his body and gather strength to escape by stabbing himself in the thigh, had his hands and legs dislocated, and his jaw was twisted out of his shoulder. He was drooling and unable to utter a single word.
"Keep your thoughts to yourself; it's not your turn to say anything yet."
The uniformed man glanced coldly at the man in our yard whose hands and feet had been removed, then turned and walked into the house.
Qi Meng, who had been retied inside the room, stared at a room full of girls and children, but finally couldn't hold on any longer and lowered her head.
"Don't worry, Zuo Zuo is very capable. She said she would let us leave after dealing with those people, and she will definitely do it!"
She was prepared to cut the rope herself and escape at all costs, but then Zuo Zuo suddenly appeared out of the sky and gave her a big surprise.
That's right, this surprise came at a price. Who told her to trust people so easily and get kidnapped? All that self-defense training was for nothing.
So Zuo Zuo tied her up again, saying that she would only come in and let her and these people who only had good intentions but no brains out when she untied the ropes herself.
So, these people have been watching her ever since she woke up. Whenever she slacks off, they all stare at her silently, making her feel very uncomfortable.
Who is Qi Meng?
The man pushed open the door, his indifferent gaze sweeping over the girls who were tightly bound.
Qi Meng's big eyes dimmed at first, thinking that Zuo Zuo had failed, but they lit up when she saw the man's face. If she hadn't been tied up, she probably would have jumped up.
"Me! Me! Me! It's me! Were you sent by Zuo Zuo to help me?"
Zuo Zuo said, "Your appearance reflects your heart. Someone who looks this good must not be a bad person!"
