C1402 Blood Dwellings

Since ancient times, Miao Renlong had always held the theory of ghosts and gods in high esteem. In fact, from their point of view, when a person died, their soul would carry a dustpan, making it inconvenient for them to walk.

Most of the time, when the Corpsemancer was older and could not handle the pressure anymore, he would become a Zhai Master of the Zhai Clan's offering. A-Wen and the other old ladies of the Zombie Clan were no exception, as she had once been one of the Zombies.

Although the stronghold of A'Lu and his group were extremely remote, they revered these claims more than the strongholds of the outside world. Even though the village was rather poor, the ancestral tomb's ancestral hall was still extremely magnificent. Not only that, the village even had a sacrificial offering that was responsible for the teachings of ghosts and gods.

In addition, there was a saying that women were not allowed to enter the ancestral hall. If those words were spread to the outside world, they would certainly be viewed by some feminists as a form of discrimination against women.

Although this argument appeared to be biased, in reality, there was an extremely special reason behind it. Heaven and earth were divided into Yin and Yang, and humans were also divided into Yin and Yang. Of course, the Yin energy within a woman's body was completely different from Yin Sha, Yin Qi, Yin Xie, and the like. It was just Yin energy.

However, regardless of whether it was the ancestral graves or the shrines, they were all places where clan members paid homage to their ancestors. Furthermore, in a place like Miao stronghold, the clan affairs were all handled. In places like this, there would be an extremely thick aura of masculinity that would form over time. Even when the yang energy was accumulated to a certain degree, it would still form a fiendish aura!

The combination of Yin and Yang referred to yin and yang energies, and the combination of Yin and Yang was precisely referring to yin and yang energies. A female's body was considered yin. Once they entered this place filled with yin qi, they would naturally suffer some injuries. Furthermore, men were born with a Yang attribute, and were naturally able to block the attack of this Baleful Yang qi. Even if they were attacked by the baleful aura, they wouldn't be harmed in the slightest.

This was even true for ordinary ancestral halls, not to mention Miao stronghold, which highly valued sacrifices. They paid their respects at festivals. The Yang Sha formed inside the ancestral hall far exceeded that of ordinary ancestral halls.

Perhaps it was because of this saying that no woman was allowed to enter the ancestral hall in the stronghold. This was a saying that no one dared to go against due to the fact that within the stronghold, the authority of the Sacrifice was sacred and could not be violated. However, no one knew why the little girl, Soo Soo, would suddenly barge into the ancestral hall and cause such a disaster.

But whatever the reason, the horror of the sacrifice had come to pass. Ever since Soo Soo had entered the ancestral tomb's ancestral hall, the normally gentle and adorable lady had now become a completely different person. Her entire body was exuding a chilling aura and her face had a cold smile that could scare a person to death.

By the time Ah Run and Mu Mu rushed to the door of the old woman's house, there was already a crowd gathered outside. There were quite a few people chatting and mumbling, and some even had weird mouths. Facing the sky, the sun was rising, and the sun was setting. It was rare for something new to happen in the village, but today, something like this happened. How could there not be people watching?

"Brother Mu Mu, this is even more lively than when we first arrived in the village …" Seeing the black mass of people, Ah Lu could not help but stick out his tongue. He saw that she was too late and could not see anything, so he rolled his eyes and said, "Brother Mu, carry me and squeeze further in. Let's see how Grandma Zhu will treat Xiuxiu's evil spirits."

"Wood..." "Wood …" Hearing this, the young man muttered a few words in a low voice. He wrapped one of his arms around A'Run, who was on his back, and began pushing him towards the crowd with the other hand. This guy was as strong as an ox, so how could the villagers stand up to his poking?

The little girl was overjoyed when she saw this. She used the few remaining praises in her stomach and said, "Brother Mu is so powerful!"

"Wood has come to watch the show as well." The people who were pushed aside felt unhappy at first, but after seeing this young man, they knew that this fellow was just like a piece of wood, so they couldn't make sense of it and smiled as they greeted him.

"Wood..." "Wood …" The young man was quite enthusiastic. He continued to mutter to himself while grinning.

"What do idiots know? Stand behind him, don't get in his way." However, there were also those who did not like to cause trouble. They thought to themselves unhappily, "I wonder what kind of crazy people left such an ignorant fool at home!"

"Who are you calling a fool? My family's Brother Mu is not a fool. He is smarter than all of you!" Upon hearing these words, An Lun pouted. With a layer of frost on his face, he glared angrily at the person who was muttering to himself.

Although the people in the stronghold all treat this young man as a fool, in the eyes of Ah Run, he, Mu Mu, was the most kind-hearted person in the world. Not only did he obey her every word, but he also doted on her, often sneaking into the mountains to pick wild fruits for her. What family they were, they were people that could depend on each other in the world, how could A-Run allow this person to insult Brother Mu like that.

Moreover, in the little girl's heart, she felt that only she could call Brother Mu a fool, since no one else was qualified.

"A fool is still a fool. If not, then why do you know how to use the word 'wood' …" That person curled his lips when he heard this. He was just about to make some sarcastic remarks when he noticed the unfriendly gaze from the young man and recalled how he had the strength of an ox, afraid that he would be beaten up by this foolish and powerful fellow. Then, he comforted himself by saying, "What's the point of arguing with a fool?"

"Humph!" After glaring at him, he patted the young man on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Brother Mu Mu, let's not bother with him. We'll wait and see what you have to do."

"Wood..." "Wood …" The young man laughed heartily and mumbled to himself.

Sigh, what's wrong with Brother Mu Mu? Why would he mutter this? I can't blame others for calling Brother Mu a fool. Hearing the young man's mutterings, A'Run couldn't help but lightly sigh, a trace of pity in his eyes. But after a moment, her eyes suddenly became determined. If Brother Woodpass is really a fool, then I'll protect him for the rest of my life and not let him be bullied!

But according to what his mother said, he will marry her sooner or later. Once he marries someone, he won't be able to accompany Brother Mu. If he isn't in the village, then what will happen if someone bullies Brother Mu?

Just as the little girl was thinking about these random thoughts, the bustling crowd suddenly quietened down.

The only person who could make the crowd so quiet was the old granny Zhu in the stronghold. Upon seeing the change in the crowd, that little girl An Lu immediately broke free from her chaotic thoughts. Blinking her large eyes, she stared intently at the black door. She wanted to see just what kind of appearance elder sister Xiu Xiu had changed into.

There was a violent cough, and an old woman with a stooped back and a full head of white hair came out of the gallows. Moreover, she was dressed in black. If it wasn't for her face being as pale as a corpse, no one would have realized that she was standing in front of the door of that pitch-black hanging tower.

However, the focus of the crowd was not on the old woman, but on the hemp rope in her hand. In Miao Village, hemp rope had always been used to bind animals. No one knew what Grandma Zhu was doing with a hemp rope in her hand. Could it be that she was planning to pull out an animal from the gallows? But you haven't seen any beasts inside this building?

Heh! Just when everyone was puzzled, something appeared on the other end of the rope. After seeing something on the other end, those spectators couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.

However, under this strange scene, no one noticed that the moment the silly looking wooden log appeared, its eyes suddenly shone with a bright light that did not match its previous appearance. It was the light of intelligence.

On the other side of the rope was not an animal, but a living person. To be more precise, it should be a blood man.

As for the bloody figure that was tied up by the hemp rope, that was Sister Soo Soo. However, there wasn't a single trace of 'Xiu' on the blood figure. It was extremely terrifying.

The snow-white face was covered with dense bloodstains as if it had been scratched by an insane cat. However, looking at the flesh that remained on Soo Soo's fingertip, one could tell that the one who had scratched her was probably herself.

"How can there be such a heartless person who can be so cruel to himself!" Staring at that bloody face, the people in the crowd immediately felt a little afraid. Even Ah Run couldn't help but raise his hand to block in front of him. He only dared to peek through the gaps between his fingers.

However, the even weirder picture was still behind it. The tied up 'Blood Man' Soo Soo walked out of the gate. When she saw the crowd of onlookers, a ghastly smile appeared on her face.

Not only that, while sneering, this' Blood Man 'Soo Soo's body was still struggling. She did not know how her tiny body could have so much strength to actually make the hemp rope clank. It was a good thing that the hemp rope was tied tight. No matter how hard she tried to struggle, she couldn't break free from it. Even so, it was still very scary.

Seeing Soo Soo constantly struggling, the scrawny old granny Zhu's eyes turned cold. She suddenly lifted her foot and kicked down towards Soo Soo's knee. With a crack, Soo Soo fell to her knees. It was clear that her legs had been broken.

He was indeed a strange person who had once been a Corpsemancer. Even though he was old and decrepit, he was still incomparably fierce.
