The nails on the coffin door are all movable. Sometimes the executioner will pull the nails outwards to make the inmate die a little slower.

As for things like Jewish pointed stools and head crushers, I really don’t want to describe them too much. When I saw these torture instruments, I seemed to see something that I didn’t want to face very much. It was a distorted desire and the darkest side of human nature.

Even though he has been buried underground for so long, every torture instrument has a very strong resentment.

When that aura appeared, hundreds of unjust souls seemed to be crying at me in my ears, making me numb from my scalp to my soles.

In the end, I couldn't stay anymore, so I quickly left the torture room and sat on the edge of the hole we dug out and gasped heavily.

Liu Shangang walked up, patted my shoulder and asked me, "Brother Dao, are you okay?"

I smiled helplessly: "I have been tense since this morning. When I saw those torture instruments, I was really unable to hold it anymore."

Liang Houzai also came here at this time. He picked up a kettle from the edge of the pit for me. I unscrewed the lid and took a small sip. The clean water was filled with a cool air and soaked my internal organs along my throat, making me feel much more comfortable.

After a while, Senior Brother Bao also came up. When he came, he was holding a very strange-shaped knife in his hand.

The shape of the knife is a bit similar to the kitchen knife we ​​usually use, but the knife handle is long and the blade is short. The entire blade looks as big as the palm of a five or six-year-old child, and the blade is convex, forming a curved arc shape.

In addition, there seem to be some patterns on the blade, but because it is covered with rust, it is difficult to identify the specific content of those patterns.

Isn't this knife also a torture instrument?

I was curious and couldn't help asking Senior Brother Bao: "What is this knife used for?"

Senior Brother Bao was frowning at this time. After hearing what I asked, his brows frowned even more: "It can't be regarded as a torture instrument. This is a castration knife... it is the kind of razor that turns a man into a eunuch. Look here."

While speaking, Senior Brother Bao delivered the knife to me, and pointed at the knife handle with his finger. I saw the words "Thirteen Yamen" engraved on the knife handle.

I was wondering where the Thirteenth Yamen was, and Senior Brother Bao explained to me: "Thirteenth Yamen is the inner court organization of the Qing Dynasty's imperial court. This castration knife seems to have flowed out of the Forbidden City."

A castration knife from the Qing court was mixed into a pile of European torture instruments, which made people feel strange no matter how they think about it.

Senior Brother Bao carefully wrapped the castrated knife, then waved to Zhang Da, shouting: "Dafa, take a few people to get some food back, and the others rest on the spot for an hour."

It is indeed time to take a break. From daytime to night, we almost never stopped. No matter how good the physical strength is, we can't stand it.

Senior Brother Bao took the kettle from me, sat next to me, looked at the torture room not far away and said, "You said... Old Master Huang knows that there is such a torture room buried under the floor of his house."

I shook my head: "This kind of thing is hard to say, and I can't understand why such a torture room full of ancient European torture instruments appeared underground in Huangjiazhuang."

The expression on Brother Bao's face was as puzzled as I did: "Who can explain these things clearly? Maybe in addition to the resignation of the gods, there were also a group of foreigners who came to this place. In the late Qing Dynasty, it was not uncommon for Europeans to appear on this land in the northeast."

After that, none of us spoke. It was not until Zhang Dafa and the others brought food that we ate something and continued to dig.

Digging twenty meters down from God's yard should be where the blood pool is. We are not sure what is in the blood pool at present, so we dare not dig so deep. Senior Brother Bao estimated the specific location of the blood pool, and then he led us to dig a tunnel, and then continued to dig downwards after going around the blood pool.

We went through a lot of trouble at Mr. Huang's house to get the ground. The ultimate goal was to find out where the blood came from.

This excavation lasted for a few days. It was easier to dig at the beginning. With a shovel down, it was an ordinary soil layer. But slowly, some gravel and some trees that were rotten but still thick, which became very difficult to dig.

We are not Superman either. After the first night passed, many people couldn't stand it anymore. After that, Senior Brother Bao asked everyone to rest in batches.

Usually ten people go back to sleep, and the rest continue to dig. Only Senior Brother Bao stays at the excavation site, but by the next day, he rarely shovels himself.

I remember that it was about the afternoon of the third day, and I was resting in the back of the ancestral hall covered in mud. Brother Bao suddenly called my walkie-talkie.

Senior Brother Bao said that they dug up something amazing and asked me to go over and take a look. After that, they terminated the communication.

I barely supported my body, which was still a little tired, and sat up from the bed. At this time, Liu Shangang and Liang Houzai, who came back with me to rest, woke up. I saw that they had not had enough sleep.

"Stop sleeping, go." I stood up on the edge of the bed and patted Liu Shangang's back.

Liu Shangang looked at his watch and muttered, "I haven't slept enough" and "I have only slept for an hour", while getting up reluctantly.

Liang Houzai had already arrived at me at this time. He raised his chin outside the door of the back bedroom and said to me: "Look."

I saw Master Li leaning against the door frame, tilting his head, as if he was taking a nap.

I made a gesture of silence at Liang Houzai and Liu Shangang, and then walked to the door gently and crossed the threshold.

Just as I stepped on the ground on the other side of the threshold, Master Li suddenly spoke: "What are you doing?"

I was startled by him.

He straightened his body and continued, "You three are going to leave after only an hour? Did you dig something from Xiaobao?"

When we were digging in Mr. Huang's yard before, Master Li wanted to go over and take a look. At that time, Zhang Dafa refused Master Li on the grounds that he was injured and was inconvenient to move. The last time I came back to rest, Master Li kept muttering in my ears and asked us if we had dug out anything. I was so quarrel that he couldn't sleep, so he perfunctorily said that he hadn't dug out yet.

At that time, Master Li said that when he was digging out something, he must let him see it. He also said that he was more experienced than our masters and could help. I just wanted to calm down Master Li, so I agreed casually.

Even if I agreed, to be honest, I don’t trust Master Li and don’t plan to really take him with me.

At this time, Master Li asked me again: "Does your last time still count?"

I started to get frivolous: "Master Li, you can't see that your body is not convenient, so don't go. I promise that when I come back later, I will tell you everything about it."

Master Li said sarcastically: "Ha, you are planning to break your word when you say that. People from the righteous lineage don't keep their words? This is the first time in hundreds of years. The corpse Taoist religion has made a good disciple."

I originally thought that even if he really wanted to go, he would bargain with me, but I didn't expect that he would react like this. His words were too mean, and even my master scolded him in a roundabout way, which made me very difficult for a while.

I just thought, Taoist Li was also a well-versed person, but why did he say this like a middle-aged resentful woman?

But Master Li is an elder after all. I thought so in my heart, but said, "I don't mean that, Master Li, I just worry about your body. If you really want to go, how can I not take you with me?"

Actually, when I think about it now, I feel funny. That year, I was only fifteen years old, but I actually changed my honesty when I was a child and learned to be silly. But speaking of it, this should not be a bad thing. After all, when I move around in society, such social skills can be used occasionally.

After hearing what I said, Master Li's face improved a lot, but he still insisted on going.

In the end, I was left with nothing to do, so I could only carry him to the excavation site.

When I arrived at the excavation site, Senior Brother Bao squatted by the pit and smoked. This was the first time I saw him lit the cigarette in his mouth.

Senior Brother Bao doesn't seem to smoke often, and the cigarette was still a little overwhelming for him. He was spitting out smoke while coughing.

When I came to him, he was staring at a tunnel we dug out before and staring blankly.

When I put Master Li down, Master Li patted the back of my senior brother Bao’s head: “Why are you in a daze? Have you dug something?”

Senior Brother Bao touched his head and it took a long time to come back to his senses. He raised his head and looked at me, then looked at Master Li, and then he was stunned for a while before saying to me: "The source of blood is probably in the evil tomb in the back mountain."

I was a little puzzled: "What does it mean?"

Senior Brother Bao stood up, patted the soil on his body, and said to me, "Come with me." while climbing down the pit.

Liang Houzai and I also helped Master Li to walk down the pit from left to right. Master Li saw the torture room not far from us at a glance and asked me: "Where did the torture room come from?"

At that time, Master Li did not enter the torture room, and it was even more impossible to see the large number of torture instruments placed inside. I felt strange in my heart, so I asked him tentatively: "How did Master Li know that it was from the torture room?"

Master Li said: "Such resentment, coupled with the smell of rust and blood, isn't it the torture room?"

After saying that, Master Li asked me again: "Why did I feel like I always feel a faint anger under my feet? Is there anyone below?"
