Chapter 309: Washing the Skin
The secondary personality returned to the ground indifferently and slowly replied: "Pain is a very low-level sensory nerve. Its purpose is to protect yourself and let you know that you are being hurt.
I don't need its protection, so it is dispensable. I usually block it."
The secondary personality didn't care about the broken neck at all, and continued to move forward in the valley at a constant speed, but Ye Tingbai was a little panicked. He hadn't seen anything yet, and he broke his neck. This was not a good sign.
After passing through the dark sky and entering the valley, the view suddenly opened up. The terrain in the valley was even lower, as if a pit was dug out by someone. It looked about the size of four or five football fields. Looking up was a golden full moon.
Ye Tingbai: "It shouldn't be a full moon today, right?"
Subpersonality: "Well, it's cloudy outside the valley, so I can't see the moon. Even if I can see it, it should be a crescent."
Subpersonality took out his phone again and checked it. The signal directly showed that it was out of service area. In this world full of black technology, there are only two possibilities for no signal on the phone. One is that the phone is broken, and the other is that the signal is blocked.
Because mobile phone networks have long been popularized in every corner of the world, there is no signal in remote mountainous areas. So this valley is really a big problem. It may be a separate small space separated from the outside world.
Looking down the mountain road, there is a small village with only a dozen houses. The whole village is blue-gray and looks lifeless. Under the feet is a gravel road paved with some strange white round stones.
These stones look very oily and regular in shape. In the moonlight, they look like a road paved with jade.
The secondary personality: "It's not a stone, it's a skull, a specially treated skull. The road under my feet is full of skulls."
The secondary personality hooked his finger, and a few pieces of stones that Ye Tingbai thought were stones floated up. They were indeed polished skulls. The internal structure of the bones could be clearly seen from the cut.
Ye Tingbai: "Is it human?"
The secondary personality: "Not sure. It is estimated that there are more than 3,000 skulls. It is unrealistic to collect so many ape skulls. It is most likely human."
Now that the valley under his feet has not yet revealed its true appearance, Ye Tingbai has already retreated. He is not a person who likes adventures. He came here purely because he was fooled by Yuwen Ergou and Si Youxu for too long.
But before Ye Tingbai could think clearly, the secondary personality had already rushed down.
Secondary personality: "Let me see what these people are doing. I'm a little curious. If something goes wrong, I'll try my best to save my life."
The secondary personality went down along the skull road and rushed directly into the village. But strangely, he went around the houses several times and didn't see anyone. The whole village was empty. There were no living materials, no signs of life, and it was scary clean. There was not a speck of dust on the ground or the table.
Secondary personality: "There is a river over there. I'll go and see."
After thinking this, the secondary personality just walked out of the door and was surrounded by a group of people. The village that was empty just now was now crowded with people. These people were pale, their steps were weak, and they looked like dead people.
They stared at the secondary personality, looking extremely scary. They didn't attack or make any sound, but their eyes kept looking at a house that the secondary personality had checked long ago.
Ye Tingbai: "They seem to want you to go into that room?"
Subpersonality: "There's nothing in that room either. I searched it carefully."
"Tear down these houses and look underground. Don't forget that this can block your perception."
Many times, the subpersonality relies too much on his radar-like perception. As long as he walks by, he can clearly know everything inside in his mind. This was really useful in the past, but in this city, his perception is almost useless.
The subpersonality began to smash the house, and Ye Tingbai kept paying attention to the expressions of those resentful souls. He saw a familiar face among them, the ceramic man he had smashed before.
Subpersonality: "There really is a secret compartment!"
There is a thick bone layer under the ground, all of which are the appearance of human bones after being smashed. Some finger bones and ribs can also be seen. It is these bones that isolate the perception of the subpersonality. Under this bone layer, there is a cellar door. The door was locked from the inside. The subpersonality picked up a dagger and pried it open.
As soon as the door was opened, there was a strong smell of blood mixed with some strange irritating gases.
"Wash Baibai, wash Jingjing, you are all good kids, be good!"
The voice in the cellar sounded like a mentally retarded person singing a nursery rhyme. There was a faint candlelight below. The secondary personality jumped down without hesitation. As soon as he landed, he was splashed with blood. Facing the candlelight, they saw a monster with a white body, rubbing something in a basin of blood.
"Hey, how did you come in? You are not good, let me help you wash Baibai!"
The man who seemed to have albinism stood up and picked up the things he was rubbing in the water. It was a scalp that was peeled off from the neck. The hair and the skin were completely peeled off. When you look closely at the basin of blood, you can see the fat tissue floating on the water.
Now he understands why those ceramic people are so real. This tm is basically covered with a layer of human skin.
The albino-like monster pulled out a skinning knife from nowhere and gently slashed at the secondary personality. Although it didn't touch, a blood mark appeared on the secondary personality.
The secondary personality's attack was also launched synchronously. The divine bone dagger pierced the man's forehead almost at the same time. There was no blood, only the sound of ceramic shattering. This was not the real body of this person. The ceramic body fell straight to the ground, shattered with a bang, and turned into fragments on the ground.
Bang~
The cellar door was suddenly closed at this time, and there was a sound of moving heavy objects from above.
The secondary personality didn't rush up, but visited the cellar. The whole cellar was full of human heads that had not been processed. The skins of these people had not been peeled off. The heads cut off by sharp objects were thrown casually in the corner of the wall. Dirt and blood mixed together and attached to their faces.
Secondary personality: "There should be such cellars under these houses, just like small workshops, where every body part must be processed before it can be made into a ceramic man.
Although the ability of that thing is weird, its strength is very poor, and the quantity does not mean much to me."
