Here Lies The Wicked

Heavy drifting rain in the sky is still falling, just as you turn around and look at the shopping building, in another dark, tiny house in this Southeast Asian city.

In the darkness, there is a little light flashing out, between the extinctions, seemingly invisible as if it were from a line of incense.

At this moment, this fragrance is embedded in an antique incense oven in front of a shrine.

As the incense fires burn, occasionally the ash dots spill, and… the air smells like corpse rot.

And the smell of rotten corpses comes from the fragrance of darkness.

Sasha...

This is the shadow of a tree blown by the storm, on a glass window outside the house, reflecting a strangely shaped black tree shadow, like a man climbing on a glass window and twisting it back and forth.

At first, it was thought to be a tree shadow, but if you look closely, you will find a tree shadow of one of the areas, very strange, as if it were a human face contour, motionless, unlike the shadow of a tree can be blown back and forth by the wind and rain.

Heron! That's a human face, I don't know when to stick it on the glass outside the window, I can't move, like laying my whole face outside the dark glass window at night, it seems to be peeking into the house.

Only because there was no light in the house, and it was raining heavily outside the house, and it was dark at night, did you not see the human face at first.

It is also because of the darkness in the night that it is not possible to see the face...

But it's still the weirdest, the weirdest thing is, that face, it's just the head, and there's no body under the neck... it doesn't look like someone was snooping out the window!

And more like, a head peeping directly out the window!! Leave the body floating in the middle of the sky!!

This is a very strange scene, without the head of the body, late at night, not knowing when, lying outside the glass window and peeking into the house, the more the situation is, the more furious it is.

And yet, at this point, there was an old, old voice coming out of the house.

“Huh!”

The old man's voice was chilling.

“The barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric barbaric baric barbaric barbaric baric barbaric baric ”

“Didn't your lord ever teach you how to be polite when you encounter people? Don't you think curiosity kills cats?! ”

The old man's voice is like a wildcat's pointy howl, extremely stinging and deafening.

There's actually one more person in this room.

It was only because the lights were not on in the house and the rainy nights were particularly dark that it was not possible to first find someone in the house.

But most surprisingly, what the old man said was Chinese, not Southeast Asian.

She's from the country.

Not indigenous South-East Asia.

Sasha...

The shadow of the tree outside the window, still shaking in the wind and rain, is the only person hiding in the shadow of the tree's face contour, always keeping the original motion on the glass window, motionless.

“I heard a rumor… that there had been a major snowfall in the East…” Outside the window, a shady middle-aged man's voice sounded.

Middle-aged men also speak Chinese, but bump and bump, not as smooth as the old voice. He speaks Chinese badly and is obstinate, with a strong accent from the local population of Southeast Asia.

And listening to that sound source seems to be coming from the direction of that floating face outside the window.

The sound of the yin test continues to say: “At that time... because the weather was cold, no matter what seeds were planted in the ground... it could not live... leading to famine... many people died, people ate all the animals and vegetables in the mountains, and then began to go deep into the mountains in search of food... Later, there was a hunter, who went deeper into the mountains to hunt... nobody knew what the hunter had been through in the deep mountains, and he had not returned for three days...”

“Just as the hunter's family thought he had been killed in the mountains, he must have met the tiger bear leopard beast. As a result, on the third day, the hunter brought back a lot of food and saved the lives of the whole village... From that day on, the village changed, became a day without going out, everyone couldn't close the door, read the scriptures at home all day and night, burning incense, worshipping God... no planting, no work, no hunting, but the whole village could starve, don't you wonder? ”

“At that time, the famine people began to wonder if the village had surplus food in the past and had a lot of food, so they couldn't die of hunger? And then somebody started sneaking into the village, trying to steal food, and guess what? Those who entered the village actually came back to the village with one car and one car of food. Since that day, those villages have become exactly like the first village. They don't have to work, they don't have to go out, they burn incense every day, they can read the scriptures, they can't starve. ”

“Ha...” The sound of the yin test outside the window made a sudden smile, which seemed to be ridiculous and ridiculous.

“Until one day, a Taoist passed by these villages, and his face changed dramatically, and he immediately approached the local government. Do you know why the Taoist suddenly changed his face? ”

The old man in the house, he didn't speak this time, and the sound measured outside the window continued to speak.

“Later, Taoists, with government personnel, drove several cars, one car and one body, from the villages to the outside, transporting the bodies of all the villagers for several days and nights. ”

“Turns out... hey, the villagers in those villages are already starving to death, they're all dead dead, they don't know they're dead, they're locked up in their houses, they're burning incense all day long... they're not worshipping God, they're a shrine. ”

“What food, what is full, is not revealed until the Taoist finds out that everything is false. Later, the Taoist led the way and took a lot of troops into the mountain to search the mountain. No one knew what was going on in the mountain. All they knew was that there was a fire in the mountain, and the forest fire burned all day and night..."

“It turns out that there is a group of people who, in spiritual exhaustion, want to continue practicing life, spreading the faithful everywhere, believing in them, worshipping them, practicing with incense flames, in this way retaining themselves in a special age when the spiritual exhaustion does not occur, because they cannot practise, leading to the collapse and extinction of their bodies. However, I have recently heard a rumor that the vast majority of those people have died and that very few have escaped to exile to South-East Asia, where they remain hidden until today. ”

“I look at the shrines in this house, just like the shrines worshipped by the villagers in those villages... can't you be one of those people? ”

Silence.

“How much more do you know?” The old noise in the house, rise again.

Sounds flutter in the house and are always difficult to locate.

"I've also heard that these people practice the Seventy-Two Fragrances of the Deaf. Let me guess, isn't that fragrance in the house one of the fragrances in the Deaf Seventy-Two Fragrances? What are you going to do when you light the Seventy-Two Fragrances of Disaster in the city? What's the purpose? ”
