Chapter 12 Chapter Eleven

When I woke up, I was still dizzy.I looked around at the moment, only to see that the surrounding area was slightly dark and quiet.Only then did I realize that I was lying on a rock, and Hu Songshan and the others were also lying beside me.I woke up everyone one by one, only to see that they were all sleepy, as if they were still confused about what happened before them. I just heard Lord Dou say: "Hey, why didn't we sleep in the coffin this time? Could it be that the coffin is too small to hold the four of us?" Seeing that Lord Dou is still in the mood to joke, I couldn't help admiring him.

Jiang Qiankun said: "Master Dou, do you still have the gun on your body?" Master Dou touched his waist, his face immediately became strange, and he only heard him say: "It's broken, and the gun was confiscated." Jiang Qiankun saw Master Dou saying this, and said, "Oh, mine is lost too." I said: "Throw it away, just throw it away. I just ran out of bullets in the magazine and it didn't do anything to him. I think even if there is a gun, it won't do much." Master Dou said: "Although that is the case, with guns, we are still more at ease."

At this time, Hu Songshan pointed to the distance and said, "Look, there is a light over there." So everyone walked towards the bright place, only to see that the bright place is the entrance of a cliff cave, and the cave entrance is also flat, so it looks dim here.Everyone looked out of the cave, and saw that the cliff here is hundreds of meters high, and there is a deep valley below the cliff, and there are mountains and rivers in the distance. Obviously, this is the mountain where everyone was just now.It's just that everyone's position is relatively low now, not the cliff top where they were just now.

Jiang Qiankun said: "Which one of you still has a flashlight?" Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, it seems that they are all gone. Jiang Qiankun said: "It's bad, we don't have a flashlight, so we are no different from blind people. At night, the cave is darker than the outside. Even if there is no moon outside, we can't see the road, but here we can't see our fingers." " Everyone became anxious after hearing what Jiang Qiankun said.Jiang Qiankun continued: "I don't know how we got here? You see, it's getting dark, and while the sky is still bright, we must find something to light the fire, otherwise we can only wait to die." Hearing what Jiang Qiankun said, everyone just realized that this is a desperate place, and it is impossible to find the exit immediately, so they must find the source of fire.

At that moment, everyone started to walk into the cliff cave. Along the cliff, everyone found that there were many knives and ropes here.From the perspective of style, these props have a single style and are not beautiful, but from the perspective of hand feel, they are extremely sharp.Seeing this, everyone was overjoyed, and immediately distributed the knives to everyone.Since I already had two knives in my hand, I didn't need them, but at this time, each person is equipped with an average of two knives. In the middle of the cave, Lord Dou found a brazier. He lit it with a lighter, and the fire immediately ignited.We didn't expect that the brazier could still be lit here. It seems that the brazier is filled with a kind of oil, and it is very flammable.

There was a fire in the cliff cave, and everyone was relieved, at least there was light in the cliff cave now.Taking advantage of the bright lights in the cave, everyone continued to observe other placed items.In addition to the one-meter-high and five-meter-long stone platform on which we lay on just now, there are several wooden crosses in the cave.There are many ropes on these wooden frames, and the most frightening thing is that there are many iron hooks on them. The sky outside is slowly getting darker. Because it has been rainy these days, it gets dark very early.At this time, Hu Songshan shouted to the crowd: "Everyone, come quickly, see what this is?" When they heard the sound, they immediately walked away, only to see that the ground at the left end of the cave was full of bones.These bones were scattered in piles and piled up in a corner of the cave. If you don't observe carefully, you can't see it at all.

Seeing this, everyone has doubts in their hearts. Why are there so many bones here?Is it a sacrifice, or a sacrifice?Or the mountain people who strayed into the mountains before?Although everyone muttered in their hearts, they still couldn't think of an answer. In order to find the exit, everyone continued to search for clues.The hard work paid off, and after exploring the dark cave for a while, we found a small door on the other side of the cave.This small door is located in the right front of the cliff cave. It is less than two meters high and less than one meter wide. Because it is blocked by a stone wall, it has not been discovered.

Jiang Qiankun took a leg bone, dipped some oil in the brazier, and set it on fire.With the torch, the depths of the cave are much brighter.Everyone entered the small door, only to see that the inside of the door was deep and narrow.Continue to walk in, but everyone saw a fork in the road.There are two roads at this fork, one is a ladder going up, and the other is a passage leading to the cave on the right. Seeing these two roads, everyone hesitated, unable to decide where to go for a while.Finally, Jiang Qiankun said: "We came here, one is to search for Liu Xuan's whereabouts, and the other is to find Zhimin's whereabouts. Let's not go up the passage. Let's go to the cave next door and check the cave. , it won’t be too late to go up.” Everyone felt that it made sense, so they entered the next cave one by one.

It was already dark at this time, if the cave was the same size as the cave just now, then the cave entrance should be in front of it.Everyone walked forward, and they saw that this cave was the same size as the one on the left, but the furnishings inside were simple, with only hay and pottery.The color of these pottery is gray and mostly earthy brown, which is far from the level of the Central Plains of the same era.Walking to the entrance of the cliff cave in the distance, I saw some things piled up at the entrance of the cliff cave, like a pyramid.After everyone walked in, they realized that it was a pile of wooden coffins.The heads of these wooden coffins face the outside of the cliff cave, and the tails of the coffins face the inside of the cave. There are nine wooden coffins in the lower layer, and the number of wooden coffins decreases by one for each upper layer.Seeing the strange placement of the coffin, everyone unconsciously became alert.

Seeing this pyramid made of wooden coffins, I couldn't help but think of the Yuan Dynasty general's tomb in Beijing.In the general's tomb in the Yuan Dynasty, the coffin planted with blood-sucking vines is also pyramid-shaped, but the coffin is much smaller than this one.These nine layers of coffins add up to a full ten meters. In order to accommodate the nine layers of coffins, the designer also hollowed out the top of the cliff cave by ten meters. Seeing such a strange arrangement, everyone couldn't help feeling a little flustered.Because the coffin was placed too high, everyone couldn't see the scene outside the cliff, but based on their feeling, it must be dark outside.Fortunately, there was nothing weird about the Bo people's version of the pyramid. Although everyone felt goosebumps on their bodies, they didn't experience much emotional fluctuations.Jiang Qiankun took a self-made "artificial torch" and looked around the coffin tower, finally shook his head, and said: "I read so many books in the past, and I feel that the tomb structures of all dynasties in various regions should be similar. It is under control. But now I understand that what is written in the book is the experience of others. Those who wrote the book have not been there, and if they have no experience, they cannot be written in the book.”

Lord Dou said: "Brother Jiang, don't be so persistent in everything, let's just see what we see and do, don't care what books it is. I haven't read a book about tomb robbers, so why don't we go to the king's tomb anyway? You don't have to worry about the things in the book." Jiang Qiankun kept nodding when he heard Master Dou say so. Lord Dou said: "Brother Jiang, move the torch over here and shine it here. Yes, it's here. Look, there are pictures." Hearing Master Dou's words, Hu Songshan and I walked over.Under Jiang Qiankun's torch, he saw many small pictures on the wall.The content of these pictures is relatively simple. Although it is composed of a few strokes, the meaning is clear and clear.Some of these pictures depict one person washing another's feet, some depict a few people plowing the field, and some depict a person feeding a horse. In summary, these people are constantly working. Jiang Qiankun said: "Yishui, you are a college student, what do you see these pictures for?" I said: "This is a scene describing the labor of slaves in that era." Jiang Qiankun said: "That's right, you're right, that is to say, the coffins here are all filled with slaves. If that's the case, then the tomb next door is... No, this torch is about to go out, everyone leave quickly. "After speaking, Jiang Qiankun left first and walked towards the small door next door. At that time, I saw that the fire was still very strong, and I didn't understand why Jiang Qiankun said that the fire was about to go out.But seeing Jiang Qiankun leaving, I also followed, only Dou Ye and Hu Songshan walked very slowly. Seeing the two of them walking so slowly, I said, "Master Dou, Song Shan, hurry up, the fire is about to go out." Unexpectedly, Master Dou said in a strange way: "Hey, it can't be destroyed." After Master Dou finished speaking, he quickened his pace and got ahead of me.Then, Jiang Qiankun, who had been walking in front of me, was suddenly hugged by Master Dou and thrown towards the small door on the left. I shouted, "Master Dou, what are you doing?" Dou Ye smiled grimly and said: "Why don't you do it, hey, get fire, hey, get fire." Everyone quickly returned to the cave just now, because the fire in the brazier is bigger than the torch, the cave is much brighter. Back in the cave, Jiang Qiankun kept staring at Master Dou, and said, "Yishui, do you know why I said this torch is going to go out?" I shook my head, only to hear Jiang Qiankun continue to say: "Because I saw a blood corpse sitting on the coffin, he patted Lord Dou and Hu Songshan on the heads of each." Hearing what Jiang Qiankun said, I was terrified. I never thought that such a thing would happen behind my back.Only then did he realize that when Jiang Qiankun was walking up just now, he was stopped by Lord Dou, and it turned out that Lord Dou was possessed.Thinking of this, I suddenly turned my head to look at Hu Songshan, only to see that her eyes were red, and she was looking at me with a weird smile on her mouth, which was exactly the same as the smile of Lord Dou in the cave on the right. Hu Songshan held the knife he picked up in the cave just now, and while looking at me, he was grinding it on the stone platform. The rustling sound made people shudder.Looking at Master Dou again, this normally carefree tomb robber looked straight at Jiang Qiankun, smiling and busy.He walked to the cross and straightened the rope on the cross. The butcher's knife on his waist was very bright at this moment. Seeing the strange behavior of the two, I feel more and more frightened.It's fine if there are ghosts, the most feared thing is the upper body.If the ghost is exorcised, it will be exorcised, but the possessed one will often hurt the companion as well.But if you don't drive away, you will be injured by your companions.At this moment, I looked at Hu Songshan, and my heart was extremely complicated, because I really didn't want to hurt her.This girl has been very kind to me since she came down from that mountain this morning, especially with this kind of problem in front of me, whether I hurt her or she hurt me, I will not feel good. Jiang Qiankun seemed to have seen the situation clearly. He picked up two more leg bones, dipped them in kerosene again, and handed one to me, saying, "Let's find a way to get out of here and go to the top." Go there." I nodded, thinking, this is the only way to go now. Seeing that we were leaving, Master Dou and Hu Songshan were reluctant to let us go as if they were guests at home during the Chinese New Year.They quickly put down their work, held knives, stretched their arms, and stopped us. We see that it is impossible to walk away, so we have to find a way to deal with it.I asked, "Uncle Jiang, why didn't the two of us suffer from evil?" Hearing what I said, Jiang Qiankun reached into his neck with his left hand, took out the glazed dragon and phoenix jade that he carried with him, and said: "This should be the effect. It may not have much effect on zombies, but it is a little bit different when it hits evil and ghosts." effect." Hearing what Jiang Qiankun said, I remembered that the old zombie in the Yuan Dynasty general's tomb seemed to ignore this piece of ancient jade at all.So when I came here, grandma gave Qiu Han that other piece of ancient jade, and I didn't feel any regrets in my heart.But now, after what Jiang Qiankun said, I really should borrow the jade from Xiao Shengyun from my aunt's house, but it's too late to regret it! At this time, Lord Dou saw that the two of us were not leaving, so he went to straighten the rope again, leaving Hu Songshan to watch over us. Jiang Qiankun looked at me and asked, "Did you bring the jade from your family?" I shook my head and said that the piece of jade belonged to my cousin and had already been returned to him. Jiang Qiankun thought for a while, and then said: "Then do you have any other family heirlooms on you?" I thought for a while, then reached out and pulled out the dagger I was wearing, only to see that the handle of the dagger was golden yellow, the blade was black and shiny, and under the brazier, the fluorescent light flickered, showing a sense of arrogance. When Jiang Qiankun saw this dagger, he couldn't help being taken aback, and said: "A good knife, a good knife, it must be inherited from the ancestors, haha, I'm afraid it was bestowed by the imperial court. With this knife, you won't be afraid to deal with demons and ghosts. " I said: "My grandma said that this knife is called the Xingxiu knife, which was bestowed by the Empress Dowager Cixi. You can see that it also says 'The treasury of the Ministry of War, bestowed by the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty' on it." Jiang Qiankun looked at the saber carefully again, and he was even happier in his heart. He said: "With this saber, it is enough to establish your Li family's position among our twelve secret agents. Yishui, Later you use this knife to pierce the tip of their index finger, and when the black blood flows out, they will be fine." Before Jiang Qiankun finished speaking, Master Dou came over.It seems that his rope has been arranged. I saw that he put the knife in his hand into his mouth, and then his arms spread out. He waved his big hand and roared excitedly, like an eagle catching a chicken generally. Maybe it's because the knife in my hand is stronger, Master Dou set his target on Jiang Qiankun.Obviously, it is not easy to catch Jiang Qiankun, and I was helping Jiang Qiankun, Master Dou struggled for a long time but failed.Because I always made troubles, Master Dou finally got angry. He kicked me to the corner of the wall. I couldn't move at once, and the torch in my hand fell to the ground and went out.At this time, Hu Songshan came over, as if trying to catch me.Sure enough, without me, Master Dou's arrest went much smoother.He first snatched the two torches from Jiang Qiankun's hand, and then snatched the knife from Jiang Qiankun's hand, and quickly caught Jiang Qiankun.Because Lord Dou hugged him very tightly, Jiang Qiankun couldn't move for a while. Seeing Lord Dou succeeded, Hu Songshan quickly put the knife in his waist and went to help Lord Dou.She picked up the rope and quickly wrapped Jiang Qiankun's limbs, as if she was a professional executioner who executed the hanging. The two men's hands and feet were very neat, and it didn't take long for Jiang Qiankun to be tied tightly.I have a bad heart, if I don't get up again, Jiang Qiankun will die, once he dies, I will be next.At that moment, I endured the pain, propped my hands on the ground, and barely stood up. At this moment, I saw a painting on the wall behind me.The structure of this painting is just as simple, and it depicts a scene of bloodletting.A man tied up a man, and then cut his neck with a knife to bleed him.While the blood was flowing, there was another person next to it.When the man had bled partly and was still alive, the crowd carried the man to the stone platform, skinned the man, and took out the heart.The blood was used to worship the blood corpse, and the heart was used by everyone to share food. Seeing this, I was so cold that I didn't dare to look at the scene in front of me again.Unexpectedly, all these utensils are used for skinning.At this time, I saw that Hu Songshan had found a basin from nowhere, and was about to receive blood.I stood up hard and walked towards the three of them.Unexpectedly, at this time, the cave became brighter, and many people appeared on the walls of the cave. Although these people did not look like blood corpses, they all looked hungry and thirsty, as if they were waiting for fresh blood. I just remembered that this mountain has a huge magnetic field.Scientists once said that the human body is also made of magnetic fields. When the human magnetic field resonates with the polar magnetic field, those dead ghosts will reappear.I don't know if the physical magnetic field on this mountain is the human magnetic field claimed by those scientists, but the invisible things are somehow connected.And why there are so many ghosts here, and why they linger after so many years, I'm afraid it has something to do with the special geographical environment here. Because I stood up, Master Dou seemed very angry, and the ghosts on the wall around him also roared in dissatisfaction.Just as I was walking forward, a hand stretched out from the ground and held one of my legs firmly, making me unable to move.I was so surprised, I didn't expect something to appear on the ground, so I used a knife to slash at the ghost hand holding my ankle, only to hear a howl coming from the ground, followed by the ghost hand turning into a puddle of pus. Jiang Qiankun, who was tied to the cross, was naturally very frightened, but seeing him struggling continuously, it was obvious that he wanted to break free from the rope.Seeing Jiang Qiankun struggling, Master Dou kept laughing.And Hu Songshan also picked up the basin, as if he was waiting for Lord Dou to strike.At this time, I saw a red figure standing at the door of the small gate. He was no more than 1.6 meters tall, and his body was like charcoal on fire. This red figure is very likely to be the blood corpse Jiang Qiankun mentioned, I saw him staring straight at Jiang Qiankun, standing there with an evil smile on his face, motionless.With more and more hands pulling at my feet, it was difficult for me to continue walking, and even with a knife in my hand, I couldn't stop the claws that kept coming.Just when I thought Jiang Qiankun was going to die, Jiang Qiankun fell to the ground and stood up after him.It turned out that the rope was too old, rotten and not strong.Seeing Jiang Qiankun standing up again, there was another nervous roar on the wall, as if he felt very sorry for the blood flying from his mouth again. Jiang Qiankun tied the glazed dragon and phoenix jade to his feet. Wherever he went, the claws disappeared immediately, leaving an open space.Lord Dou wanted to catch him, but Jiang Qiankun kicked him onto the cross, and Hu Songshan was also punched by him to the side of the stone platform.Jiang Qiankun, who broke free from the rope, doubled his explosive power. He came to me in three or two steps, grabbed the Xingxiu knife in my hand, and walked towards Lord Dou. Seeing Jiang Qiankun go crazy, I couldn't help but regain my spirits, and immediately took out another saber and chopped around.But this saber has no effect, it is just an ordinary knife, and it can't play a big role.However, with Jiang Qiankun as a pioneer, I have no problem protecting myself. Jiang Qiankun, who took the Xingxiu Knife, threw himself on Dou Ye. Dou Ye is also a powerful master, how can Jiang Qiankun subdue him at once?As soon as Jiang Qiankun pounced on him, Master Dou broke free.Lord Dou didn't care whether Jiang Qiankun was on the cross or not, he would wipe Jiang Qiankun's neck with a knife.Jiang Qiankun saw Lord Dou swinging his knife, and he also blocked it with the knife.Master Dou's Butcher's Knife was naturally not as sharp as the Xingxiu Knife, so it was broken in an instant. After the knife was broken, Lord Dou had no one, so naturally he was no match for Jiang Qiankun.But he was still tenacious, I saw him throwing away the half of the butcher's knife, and strangled Jiang Qiankun's neck aggressively.Who knows that Jiang Qiankun didn't stop him, and let him pinch him. When Dou Ye's hand fell on his neck, Jiang Qiankun grabbed Dou Ye's left arm, and used my Xingxiu knife to touch the five fingers of Dou Ye. There was a knife on it.After Master Dou was scratched, he let out a howl, followed by his whole body limp, and fell to the ground with a plop. Following Jiang Qiankun, he came to Hu Songshan's side again.Although Master Dou was cut, it didn't affect Hu Songshan's fighting spirit.I saw Hu Songshan jumping up lightly, also stabbing Jiang Qiankun with a knife.Jiang Qiankun, who is familiar with this move, seems to understand this move well. He first blocked and cut off Hu Songshan's knife, then pulled the opponent's right hand with his left hand, and cut Hu Songshan's two fingers with the knife. . After Jiang Qiankun swiped their fingers, he immediately launched a peripheral attack on me.Seeing how brave Jiang Qiankun is, I am not far behind.I picked up the bone dipped in oil, lit it again, and swung it on the surrounding ground, and the ghost hands protruding from the surrounding ground disappeared immediately.Only then did I realize that these things are afraid of fire. I took the torch, and soon got together with Jiang Qiankun. Jiang Qiankun returned the dagger to me and said, "Good job, not bad." Following him, he also picked up the two bones he had just dropped on the ground, and clicked When it was on fire, there were no more ghost hands on the nearby ground. Hu Songshan and Lord Dou who had their fingers scratched quickly regained their senses. Although they still couldn't understand what was going on, they quickly got a general idea of ​​the scene in front of them.They straightened up and wanted to stand with us, but the ghosts on the ground stretched out their hands to them.
