Looking at the blurry afterimage in front of her, Bai Lingmiao remembered that the child was her when she was a child. This was something that happened a long, long time ago.
Bai Lingmiao watched her grandfather pick her up and put it on his neck, running and jumping like a child among the ceramic figures, shouting something that made her childhood self giggle.
She silently followed them and watched, gradually recalling everything that happened to her in this place.
"Wow wow wow~ wow~~" Bai Lingmiao cried when she saw her childhood self. Wearing crotchless pants, she sat in the corner and raised her head and cried loudly. Her body and hands were all covered in mud.
"What's wrong? Nannan? Who bullied you?" An old woman with gray hair walked over quickly and stroked Bai Lingmiao up.
"Wow wow wow~~ wow wow" Bai Lingmiao, who was nestled in the old woman's arms, pointed at the corner of the wall with her chubby fingers, and said words that only she could understand in her mouth with three teeth.<
/p>
"Oh~ it scared our little girl, right? Don't cry, don't cry, grandma will take it out on you!"
The old woman took Bai Lingmiao's hand to the wall, and said while chopping her feet: "Hey! Let you scare our good girl, bad thing, trample you to death!"
When Bai Lingmiao saw her childhood self stopped crying under the comfort of her grandma, an extremely terrifying picture suddenly jumped into her mind, but her expression changed inexplicably, "I remembered it."<
/p>
"What do you remember?"
"I remember what scared me at that time!" Bai Lingmiao rushed forward and separated her past self from her past grandma.
She came to the wall, raised her sharp black nails and inserted them into the unusually strong rammed earth of the fortress and started digging.
"Miaomiao! What's wrong with you?" Chun Xiaoman came over and looked at the good sisters digging in the ground with worry.
After asking several times and the other party said nothing, she was heartbroken, took out her long sword, stabbed it into the rammed earth, and started digging together.
Gao Zhijian on the side saw this and rushed over. He also took off a piece of armor from his body, inserted it into the soil, and raised it with force.
"Is there a treasure? Is there a treasure hidden in the soil?" Gouwa also rushed over and helped with excitement.
This behavior did not last long, as Gou Wa let out a horrific scream, and everyone's hands stopped.
Bai Lingmiao's trembling hands reached towards the woman with closed eyes who was buried in the soil. Her eyeballs were shriveled and sewn up with thread, and her face was ashen and looked extremely scary.
A big hand stretched out and blocked Bai Lingmiao's hand, "...this...this...this is...the human pillar...the pillar...the pillar..."<
/p>
Before he finished, Bai Lingmiao continued digging, and more and more dead people were dug out from the soil. They were tightly next to each other, as if bricks were piled tightly together.
It’s not just adults, there are people of all ages buried in the soil.
After digging for a while, Bai Lingmiao stopped digging. She could already see that these people were not buried randomly. Their location was just at the edge of the entire hall, and there was a lotus painted on the back of each person's hand. It was obvious that they were passing by.
Specially designed.
"We are using people to lay the foundation. We are laying the foundation for such a big place. How many dead people have to be buried in the ground? Who can be so unscrupulous?" Gouwa said in shock as he looked at the shocking scene in front of him. As soon as Gou Wa said the words, he felt that he had said the wrong thing, and immediately subconsciously covered his mouth and looked at Bai Lingmiao.
This place is the ancestral hall of the Bai family. You can figure out with your buttocks who buried so many dead people underground.
Bai Lingmiao tried hard to hold back, but how could she hold back such a thing? She cried as loudly as she did when she was wearing a tiger hat, but this time there was no grandma to comfort her.
All the beautiful memories of her hometown in Bai Lingmiao's heart collapsed at this moment. What's even more sad is that she now doesn't even have anyone to question and blame.
They were all burned to ashes by Li Huowang, and no one was left.
"Why is this! Dad! Mom!! Why on earth do you want to kill so many people!! Why do you want to be bad guys!!"
"Don't you know that these people may be other people's parents! Maybe they are other people's grandparents? Do you know how painful it will be to lose a loved one!!"
Seeing Bai Lingmiao almost collapse, Chun Xiaoman quickly held him in his arms and comforted him softly. "It's okay, it's not your fault, it's not your fault..."
Gradually, Bai Lingmiao stopped crying. She had cried enough, but she also understood that crying would not have any effect.
Bai Lingmiao emerged from the other party's arms while wiping her suppressed tears. "No... this is my fault, this is our Bai family's fault! Since it is our fault, then as the Bai family, I have to take responsibility!" One after another, the stiff corpses were dragged out of the dark room, then pulled down on Niuxin Mountain on a cart and buried.
Their bodies were extremely stiff, as if they were filled with lead, and were as completely shaped as stones, so much so that even Bai Lingmiao couldn't give them a dignified burial.
When every corpse was buried and a monument was erected, Bai Lingmiao would kowtow to her head to apologize. She knew it might be useless, but it was the only thing she could do.
There were many dead people in the darkroom, and they were busy for a long time. It was not until the Lu family troupe who went out to perform opera came back that they finally finished burying them.
When he finished his work, Bai Lingmiao became very haggard, and his face became thin and disfigured.
Bai Lingmiao, who kowtowed three times to the tombstone, raised her head and looked at the tombs in front of her with bloodshot pink pupils. Her flaky lips opened slightly and asked Chun Xiaoman beside her: "Sister Xiaoman, since
They can do such evil things, so why do they teach me to be so kind-hearted?"
"If I become as bad as them, I won't be so sad..."
Chun Xiaoman can’t answer this question.
Lu Zhuangyuan, who was helping shoveling the soil at the side, stopped what he was doing, wiped his sweat and sighed: "Daughter, I am also a father. I guess I can guess what your father and mother are thinking.
”
"Actually, your father and mother know that you will be punished by God if you do this kind of thing too often, so they don't want you to get involved. Plus you are a girl."
"This married daughter is throwing water. As long as you keep it a secret and find a good family for you to marry, whatever happens to your family will have nothing to do with you. In the end, they are doing it for your own good."
Ah."
"Can you do it for me?" Bai Lingmiao opened her mouth awkwardly and wanted to say something, but she was stuck in her throat and couldn't.
Chun Xiaoman sighed and hugged her gently to comfort her. In this situation, anything she said as an outsider was in vain.
"Sister Xiaoman...."
"Huh? What?" Chun Xiaoman turned his head slightly and pressed it gently towards Bai Lingmiao's white hair.
"Even though my family are all such evil people, I still can't forgive Senior Brother Li who killed them..."
