Madam let me die

Chapter 63: Leaving Dust Temple!
Bypassing a towering rock wall, Li Nanke entered a cave that was not easy to be found.

The space inside the cave is not very large, and the gaps in the rock wall are densely covered with opaque moss, and the scattered stones on the ground verify the scene of the monster smashing violently in the memory fragments.

Li Nanke walked to the corner and pushed aside the gravel.

Sure enough, a cuboid wooden box wrapped in rags was found.

After untying the knot, the long wooden box made of ebony came into view of the man.But the long wooden box was severely damaged, and the small porcelain bottle inside was also broken.

The porcelain vase is so fine that it can be held in the palm of an ordinary child.

Even the bottle stopper is made of porcelain, which fits perfectly, wrapped in a layer of red cloth and tightly wound with gold thread.

Li Nanke counted, and there were fifteen porcelain vases in total, seven of which were broken.

Only a few grain residues remain in the broken bottle.

According to the investigation records of the Night Patrol Division, the pure 'Red Rain' can only be stored in porcelain vessels, and it will solidify into tiny grains by itself, and it will disappear when it is contaminated.

Even if it is poured into the palm of a person, it needs to be solidified by porcelain first.

Li Nanke poured the red rain crystal grains from those broken porcelain bottles into the palm of his hand, and observed carefully, these deep red crystal grains were like tiny blood-colored diamonds, glowing with halos, all exuding a strange and charming atmosphere.

"This is the red rain." Li Nanke whispered.

He lightly stuck two of them with his fingers and put them near his mouth, but he still didn't dare to try after thinking about it.

It is not timid to fall into the red rain dream, but I am afraid of turning into a monster.When the time comes to turn into a monster with 'Diao Chan on the waist', it will be really deadly.

After confirming that there were no other objects scattered around, Li Nanke opened one of the complete porcelain vases.

There is at least half a bottle of 'Red Rain' inside.

Li Nanke carefully put the remaining grains in.

But when there were only a few grains left, he stopped again.

Looking at the strange and evil crystal grains, Li Nanke's eyes were glowing, and there seemed to be an inexplicable emotion in his body urging him to do something out of the ordinary.

After hesitating for a long time, he opened his mouth slightly and licked a few grains of red rain with his tongue.

The tiny grains melt in your mouth without any taste.

Li Nanke's nervous heart was pounding, and he held the handle of the knife tightly with one hand, carefully feeling the changes in his body.

But after waiting for a long time, there was no abnormal change.

However, the soreness all over his body seems to have eased a little.

Recalling the memory fragments, the night patrol officer directly poured a bottle into his mouth, and eventually became a monster. Li Nanke couldn't help laughing, complaining about his cowardice.

With this amount, let alone a mutation, it is even difficult to fall into the red rain dream.

"How about... more?"

Li Nanke looked at the red rain in the porcelain bottle in his hand, and was tangled in his heart for a while, but in the end he didn't take the risk to try the red rain again.

He unscrewed all the remaining eight porcelain vases, and then mixed them with each other, filled three porcelain vases, sealed them and stuffed them into his arms.

The other empty bottles that were vacated were smashed and mixed with those broken bottles, sprinkled with red rain grain residue, put them back into the dilapidated wooden box, wrapped them with cloth, and covered the stones.

To be honest, even Li Nanke himself didn't know why he did this, maybe he just wanted to cheat.

Walking out of the dark cave, the dazzling sunlight came directly.

The man subconsciously raised his hand to cover his eyes.

I don't know if the cave is too cloudy, and the glaring sunlight makes Li Nanke inexplicably uncomfortable, with a nauseous feeling of wanting to vomit.

He took two steps forward, and suddenly he was in a trance, and double images appeared in the surrounding scene.

The turquoise grass, the brown-black rocks... everything is gradually stained red, and the fresh air also has a bloody and pungent smell.

"My head is so heavy."

Li Nanke shook his dizzy brain and tried to look around.

At this time, he felt that he was wearing a pair of glasses with red lenses, and the surrounding scenes were all red.

It's as if a big aunt has come to this world.

Li Nanke turned his head unconsciously——

I saw disembowelled corpses hanging from the entrance of the cave that was covered by lush vegetation just now!

Looking inside the cave again, it was dark and dark.

Thick blood-red cobwebs were formed on the four walls, worms with thick arms crawled on them, and several nests wrapped in thick cocoons hung from the ceiling of the cave.

There were even more skeletons piled up on the ground.

And in the middle of the cave, an old and ugly old nun with blue skin and only one huge eye, dressed in sea blue, was sitting cross-legged on a pile of white bones.

Her huge red eyes were staring at Li Nanke faintly, with a kind smile on her mouth with her ear pierced.

And on the stone wall behind him, there are four words written in big letters:
Be merciful!

呲味——

Suddenly, there was a strange sound in my ear.

Li Nanke, who was drowsy at first, stood up with hairs on his back, and suddenly became a little awake, and the sword from his waist was naturally cut out!

Swish!
The blade flashed across.

Taking a closer look, it turned out that a small snake was split in two, wriggling unconsciously on the ground.

Li Nanke quickly looked around and found that everything had returned to normal.

The entrance of the cave is still lush with vegetation, and the inside of the cave is also quiet.

The annoying feeling of vomiting has disappeared, replaced by the comfort of fresh air entering the lungs.

The breeze came slowly, and the leaves rustled.

Everything is at ease.

Li Nanke touched the bottle in his arms, and murmured: "This pure 'Red Rain', will people have hallucinations if they eat too little? Or will they see the dark side of their hearts?"

In order to verify his conjecture, the man finally couldn't resist his curiosity, so he took a risk and tasted a few more pills.

But this time he waited for a long time and nothing unusual happened.

Not even nausea.

Li Nanke couldn't figure it out, and he didn't bother to continue guessing because of the headache. After disposing of the snake's corpse, he simply took 'Red Rain' out of the forest.

As soon as I went down the mountain, I happened to meet two acquaintances on the way.

It was the two monks from Lichen Temple:
Chang Ming and Chang Yu.

In the case of Lin Jiaoyue last time, the two monks provided quite useful clues, which greatly helped the investigation.

"Mr. Lee."

When they saw Li Nanke, they quickly saluted.

"Call Master."

Li Nanke corrected.

The two monks were taken aback for a moment, and then they called Master in unison.

Li Nanke nodded in satisfaction, looked at the wooden bucket on the other's shoulder, and asked in confusion, "Are you going to fetch water from the river? I remember that there is a small river in the mountain behind Lichen Temple?"

Chang Ming explained: "Master Li, the river in the mountain suddenly dried up in the past few days, and my brother and I had to go to a farther place to fetch water."

"Exhausted?"

Li Nanke frowned. "Why did the good ones run out?"

Chang Ming shook his head helplessly. "We don't know what happened. The water flow has become smaller a few days ago. It has completely dried up in the past two days, and the nearby streams have also become much smaller. It may be that there is too much water in the upper reaches, or the climate is dry."

"oh, I see."

Li Nanke nodded without thinking too much.

After walking a few steps, what the woman in the bamboo hat said in the restaurant suddenly appeared in his mind: I don't know if it will rain heavily these few days...

Li Nanke stood still abruptly, frowning.

"It's raining...the river is drying up...does it have anything to do with it?"

The more the man thought about it, the more suspicious he became, and he muttered a few words in a low voice. He looked up and saw that Chang Ming and Chang Yu hadn't gone far, so he hurriedly chased after him and said, "Take me there to have a look."
