Chapter 285: [284] Nine Souls Painted Skin

Views:

It turned out that ** and his team had a smooth entry into the tomb at first. They could barely deal with the traps if they were careful. After tinkering in the tomb for more than an hour, they finally entered a room through a stolen hole. This room was similar to an ancient Chinese wooden house and looked like a woman's boudoir. At that time, they were afraid of traps and dared not touch anything. They just observed carefully. Other things in the room were fine. ** felt a portrait looking at him as soon as he entered. The painting was of a very beautiful woman. ** felt weird and asked the other four if they felt that they were being stared at by the painting, but the other four laughed at him for being too sensitive. â• Text first published

** took a sip of wine and said, "You can't imagine that the painting is made of human skin!"

"What human skin? Instructor Wang, you must be kidding. Have you seen too many painted skins? How can human skin be made into a painting?" I said with a smile.

"I'm not lying to you." ** shook his head and continued, "What am I? A scout. How could I not recognize human skin? I originally felt that the painting was very strange. Later, I went up and touched the painting. I was even more scared when I knew it was human skin. What's more terrifying is that the ancient tomb has existed for at least two thousand years. Even if the human skin has rotted, the skin feels very smooth, just like a woman's skin. After so many years, I can still remember the cool feeling of that skin."

"What happened next?" Cui Zuofei asked with a frown.

"When I touched the painting, the woman in the painting actually crawled out of the painting."

"Then you killed your three comrades? No, you soldiers are not that weak. Were you scared?" Cui Zuofei guessed.

"I don't know. At that time, I felt like I couldn't move my whole body. Then the woman dragged the other three of us into the painting. My other comrade-in-arms had to bite his tongue to move, and then he dragged me out. His arm was cut off by the mechanism because he was scared when he came out." ** sighed and said, "After I got out, I asked the army for support, hoping to save the three of them, but the senior military officials at that time would never agree to enter the ancient tomb, and later the matter was left unresolved. If you want to go in this time, I will go in with you. Even if they die, I will pull out their bodies and bury them!"

"I think I have some knowledge of the painting you mentioned. If I'm not mistaken, it should be the 'Nine Souls Painted Skin Picture'." Cui Zuofei thought for a moment and said, "You can understand the 'Nine Souls Painted Skin Picture' as a painting that has become a spirit. It needs to constantly kill living people and devour their flesh and blood in order to survive, and its soul will always be sealed in the painting."

"Is it difficult to deal with?" I looked up and asked Cui Zuofei.

"It's hard to say. We'll have to wait and see. But I'm not worried about the 'Nine Souls Painted Skin Picture'. I've heard a little about Taoist Qingfeng's abilities. Such a painting shouldn't pose much of a threat. What I'm worried about is the real owner of the tomb, or the danger inside. It's obvious that this painting was used by the tomb owner to guard the tomb, but it's impossible for there to be only such an evil thing guarding the tomb. As soon as we entered, we saw the 'Nine Souls Painted Skin Picture'. Alas~" Cui Zuofei sighed, then whispered, "You bastard, I knew you had called me here for no good reason. I'll get 40% of the results of this archaeological excavation, and you can divide the rest among yourselves."

"We are going to rescue people, not to do archaeology. You can take as much as you want when the time comes." Then I looked at ** and asked, "By the way, Instructor Wang, have you really decided to go down with us?"

"You two shouldn't be ordinary people either." ** looked at us and smiled. "I've heard before that the government is setting up a special action team and recruiting people from the army. I was going to take the exam, but later I found out that only soldiers from the special forces are eligible. The name seems to be the Paranormal Investigation Team."

"I can't say anything else. Let me be frank with you. The souls of your three dead brothers are still sealed in that painting, and they can't be reincarnated." Cui Zuofei said. I also understood what he meant. He naturally wanted to continue talking after saying that. After all, his understanding of these mechanisms is definitely better than ours.

"It's okay, are you leaving today?" ** asked.

"The sooner the better. Let's take action tonight. This time our main goal is to save people," I reminded him at last.

"Don't worry." ** nodded: "I will tell the store employees to take a holiday these days, and also go get some equipment."

"Instructor Wang, that's not necessary. We have prepared something." I said to **. Fang Yaozu had already helped us get a set of equipment a few days ago. Of course, it was not for tomb robbing, but some night vision glasses and the like.

Then ** returned to his shop and told his employees to take a two-day holiday. Cui Zuofei and I waited for him, and it didn't take long. Anyway, he said that the shop would be closed for two days. Then we took a car to Fang Yaozu's villa.

Fang Yaozu has taken great pains in preparing our action this time. After all, Fang Pengguang is his only child. It has been more than 20 days since he started acting like this and he still hasn't gotten over it. Although he has always appeared calm, anyone who has been in contact with him for a while knows that he has been upset recently.

I looked at the three travel bags on the ground and said to Fang Yaozu, "Uncle Fang, there are too many things."

At this time Fang Yaozu was sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed, and said: "It's okay, you just need to get Pengguang out for me. As long as you rescue him, you will get two million per person! If you bring back his body, you will get 500,000. Remember this." After saying that, he rubbed his temple.

"Uncle Fang, don't worry too much. They will be fine." I sighed, and suddenly felt a little distressed when looking at Fang Yaozu's appearance. I had never seen Fang Yaozu so anxious before, and he just said that he would give money if he brought back the body. It seemed that he was a little desperate. I guess I would be desperate too.

"Don't worry, Director Fang. Wu Jiu has a rotating stone in his stomach. Even if Fang Pengguang is dead, as long as we bring his body back and he hasn't been reincarnated yet, we can resurrect him," Cui Zuofei comforted at this time.

I came to my senses when I heard this. That's right, even if they died, as long as their souls hadn't been reincarnated and their bodies hadn't rotted, it would be fine. I was suddenly glad that I had swallowed the Wheel Stone back.

"Really?" Fang Yaozu looked up.

"Well, the reason I was able to be resurrected is also because of the stone in my stomach." I nodded.

"Okay, okay, okay, then I'll leave Pengguang to you!" Fang Yaozu said a little excitedly.
