Huo Xunyan was imprisoned in the dungeon of a temple outside Hualing City. It sounds strange, but it is very normal for the people of Hualing City and even Huo Xunyan. The temples of the Dainichi Sect have dungeons.
The dungeon of the Mahāinichi sect temple is a place used to "suppress evil spirits and destroy demons", so it is very reasonable.
But for Huo Xunyan at this moment, everything was meaningless. He knew that anyone who entered the temple dungeon was a "demon or evil spirit" and they only came in but never left.
Whenever he thought of the scene where Anya followed King Zhengshan away in the Shaman Forest, and his own efforts and dedication over the past few days, his heart felt incomparable pain.
My parents' money was spent, but my wife didn't get it back. Instead, she became someone else's concubine...
Thinking of this, Huo Xunyan thought of his parents again in pain. He wondered how they were doing now and whether they would be implicated by him.
As Huo Xunyan was thinking, a drumbeat suddenly sounded outside the cage. The drumbeat was very clear and ethereal, but Huo Xunyan heard bursts of mournful and mournful crying from inside. The sound was ethereal and ethereal, and very familiar, a bit like...
"Mother's voice?" Huo Xunyan looked in the direction where the drum sound came from.
The drumbeats continued to sound, accompanied by the voices of some monks talking:
"The skin is very good, very suitable for drumming."
"Well, send it back to the temple for sacrifice."
"good."
Then, the sound was getting closer and closer, and soon Huo Xunyan saw two monks walking out from the depths of the dungeon. Under the dim light, Huo Xunyan saw that the leading monk was holding a leather drum in his hands.
Huo Xunyan recognized the leather drum. It was a kind of magical instrument used by the masters of the Great Sun Sect. When struck, it could produce pleasant and ethereal sounds that penetrated the soul.
But Huo Xunyan was very puzzled at this moment. He was puzzled because the upper and lower drumheads of the drum had been made, but traces of water kept seeping out from the edges of the drum.
Is it water? Huo Xunyan squinted his eyes, and in the dim light he gradually saw clearly that it was not water, it was red blood!
The drum is naturally made of leather. The masters of the Great Sun Sect use the skin of monsters to make the drum, but where are the monsters in this dungeon?
'Dong' 'Dong' 'Dong'
As the two monks slowly walked past Huo Xunyan's cage, the leather drum suddenly started to sound automatically.
Huo Xunyan heard that familiar voice again, just like the gentle whisper of his mother when she was coaxing him to sleep when he was a child.
Hearing the drumbeat, tears suddenly flowed from Huo Xunyan's eyes for some reason, "Mom..." At this moment, he felt very depressed and painful, and inexplicably uncomfortable.
He felt his mother's presence, as if she was right beside him, yet also as if...she was moving away. It was not until the two monks left the dungeon and the drum sounds disappeared that Huo Xunyan's inner feeling slowly dissipated.
"Why do I have that feeling?" Huo Xunyan muttered blankly as he looked at the direction where the two monks left.
At this moment, there was a noise from the dungeon door. Soon, four or five monks came to the cage where Huo Xunyan was. The leading monk looked at Huo Xunyan and said, "Huo Xunyan, you stole the Buddha's treasure and blasphemed Ming Fei, but Pu Yuan Shen Monk Ci
Sadness, I will give you a chance to atone for your sins. I will rip out your intestines and cut your bones into tools. You will be converted to the Mahavairocana Dharma for eternity, devoting yourself to Buddhism and fulfilling your duty to all living beings."
Huo Xunyan was stunned when he heard this. He had seen the masters of the Great Sun Sect perform magic before. Some of the spells required the use of several bundles of "wet intestines", but everyone thought that they were the intestines of monsters. But now it seems that they are using human intestines.
As soon as the monk finished speaking, the cell door where Huo Xunyan was imprisoned was opened. Then the monks immediately walked in, took Huo Xunyan away, and led him directly out of the cage and into the depths of the deep and dark dungeon.
When Huo Xunyan was brought into the stone chamber deep in the dungeon, he felt a cold wind blowing towards him, and he shuddered immediately.
At the same time, along with the gloomy wind came a strong and disgusting smell of blood.
There is a huge stone platform in the center of the stone chamber, with undried bloodstains on it. Two monks are cleaning up the stone chamber.
When Huo Xunyan saw what the two monks were cleaning up, he was shocked because they were two corpses.
The body on the left was a male. His skull, leg bones, and hand bones had all been dug out, leaving only the skin piled loosely there.
The one on the right... seems to be a woman. Why do I say that? Because the skin of this corpse has been completely peeled off, and one of the monks is cleaning up the fallen skin fragments on the ground.
Huo Xunyan's eyes were filled with shock, but when he came to his senses and saw the bloody clothes piled next to the two corpses, Huo Xunyan let out a scream of fear, horror and grief.
"Dad! Mom!"
Aren’t those clothes in that pile exactly the ones his father Huo Xun’an and his mother Mi He wore when they attended the banquet that day?
At this moment, Huo Xunyan thought of the leather drum in the hands of the monk in front of her. Could it be that... that was a drum made of her mother's skin?
At this moment, Huo Xunyan immediately struggled frantically, but the monk who was holding him had magical powers, and no matter how he struggled, it was useless.
Instead, the monk beside him smiled at Huo Xunyan and said, "Your mother's skin was made into a spirit drum, and your father's bones were made into a magical instrument. It is their honor. How many people would wish to slay demons and monsters in the hands of the masters, and do good deeds and accumulate virtue."
Huo Xunyan collapsed instantly upon hearing this. He struggled like a madman and shouted, "Evil monk! Evil monk! I will kill you! I will kill you!"
