Chapter 21 Chapter 20 It's Raining in the Tomb

Danger has been with us since we entered this tomb.This tomb is a closed tomb, and after entering, the tomb no longer has a door.If you don't follow the yin and gossip, you can't find a way out, but there are two gossip directions in each tomb. If you are not careful, you will open the mechanism and put yourself to death. After the fourth uncle saw the yellow box, it was obvious that this should be the key to the next door.But the sound of the beast inside the cave was getting closer and closer, making it impossible to get close to the cave. At this time, the fifth uncle threw another gun to the fourth uncle, and the fourth uncle took the pistol and immediately dodged to the other side of the cave.There are more and more roars in the cave entrance, and through the searchlights, the appearance of that thing can already be clearly seen.Four long tusks, like a wild boar, naked, but the legs are very short, like a crocodile.Perhaps this is the main characteristic of animals living in underground caves. Due to long-term exposure to light, the skin is smooth, greasy, and burnt black.Just looking at that appearance makes one's stomach churn.

There are not many bullets in the magazine. Uncle Wu counted them just now, and there are still five bullets left.It seems that these detonator bullets are too few, and I really don't know what to do when they run out.I walked around to my fourth uncle and said to my fourth uncle, "I'll lure that thing out, and you shoot it in the head, we need to save bullets." Fourth uncle nodded, telling me to be careful.I picked up the blade on the ground and kept throwing it into the hole, and the roar inside kept getting stronger.I shone the light into the monster's eyes, and the monster had never seen such a strong light, and stepped back.I think it is a potential danger for us to keep this thing here at any time. If it is not removed, it will definitely be a huge disaster.I scattered the light and shot it towards the side of the tomb, so as to ensure that the movement inside the cave can be seen, and to prevent the monster from being unwilling to come out because of the fear of strong light.

Looking at this monster, it was really frightened by the detonator just now, otherwise why weren't they afraid of the strong light of fourth uncle's searchlights in the first place?I continued to throw the blade in, and the monster slowly walked towards the hole with a low growl.Seeing that the monster was still hesitating, I took a few steps back.Unexpectedly, the monster standing at the entrance of the cave suddenly crawled out at a very fast speed. I immediately shone my searchlight on it.Affected by the strong light, the monster avoided the strong light and was ready to attack at any time from the side.Because it was relatively fast when it came out of the hole, and kept moving after it got out of the hole, Fourth Uncle couldn't hit the vital point instantly.The explosive power of this animal cannot be ignored. Remembering that a crocodile can bite off the head of a cow in one bite, the bite force of this monster should not be bad.

"Yishui, come to me." Fourth Uncle shouted. Hearing my fourth uncle call me, I immediately ran to my fourth uncle.However, due to burns on my feet, my movements were not smooth. I stepped on the blade with my heel, and accidentally fell to the ground.After the fall, I clearly heard the frightened sounds of Uncle Wu and Liu Ge.The monster seemed to have seized the opportunity. Seeing that I couldn't move, and the lights couldn't find its eyes, it rushed over immediately.At this time, the chance for it is once in a hundred years. I saw its short legs like a cheetah, kicking its hind legs on the ground and jumping over.Just as it jumped up, I heard a gunshot behind me. The short-legged monster was shot in the head and bounced back to its place by the force of the bullet.

I shone the light on the monster, and it was bleeding from the left eye, and it was hurting from the gunshot wound.I saw it baring its teeth, and it would definitely bite again, so I asked my fourth uncle to shoot it directly in the right eye.I didn't know that this direct shot made the beast even more ferocious. It rushed towards me, and the blades on the ground rattled.It was too late to say, but soon, the fourth uncle immediately shot another shot at the monster's head.The monster was shot twice in the head, and did not die immediately, but ran around the tomb twice before falling to the ground.

Seeing the monster fell to the ground, the fourth uncle took the dagger in my hand and immediately stabbed it a few times in the head to prevent it from standing up again. Only then did I understand why the air circulated immediately when the door to the "Jin" tomb from the "Huo" tomb was opened. It turned out to be because of these two holes.Since animals can live in these two holes, the hole must be connected to the ground.But looking at the narrow space inside, it is difficult to find the exit to the ground. After the short-legged monster fell, the fourth uncle found a longer blade and took out the box.Fortunately, the key in this box is still there and has not been lost.As for why this key appeared there, my fourth uncle and I were puzzled and confused.But now you can open the door of the tomb and go to the next tomb.

The fourth uncle turned the key, and the door opened on the right side of the tomb.Fourth Uncle supported Fifth Uncle, and I supported Liu Ge to the next tomb.Compared with other tombs, this tomb is slightly wider and has a greater depth to the rear. The most surprising thing is that there is a still water lake with a radius of about six meters under the tomb.There is a still water lake in the tomb is unheard of, let alone me, even the fourth uncle, he has never heard of it. The fourth uncle took the searchlight and shone it on the top of the tomb, only to see water dripping slowly from the top of the tomb.The fourth uncle walked around the Jingshui Lake and came to the fan-shaped edge of the tomb against the wall. There were mottled water marks on the wall.The fourth uncle nodded and said, "So this is the secret of the 'Shui' tomb."

I asked what was going on, and the fourth uncle said: "The construction of this tomb is not stable, and there is groundwater leakage in the upper layer. Therefore, the current pool is formed. I just don't know whether the groundwater leakage in the upper layer was intentional by the builder, or it was formed due to the special soil quality." .” Summarizing the experience and lessons learned from the previous tombs, every tomb will be dangerous. Now this tomb is quiet, which seems to make people feel uneasy.Because the more calm, the more unknown the danger. After arriving at this tomb, finding the exit is still the main task at present.I suddenly thought of a question, why are all the exit organs on the right side instead of the tomb on the left side?If the tomb with the name "Shui" you entered at the beginning was not entered from the right side, wouldn't you be unable to enter the other tombs?

At this moment, only a gunshot was heard, and the fourth uncle shot the gun into the middle of the still water lake.I'm curious, why would the fourth uncle shoot into the water for no reason?This question just turned around in my mind, and I saw a shallow vortex gradually rolling up in the still water lake. The diameter of this vortex was three meters, and it changed from shallow to deep, and became bigger and bigger. I also saw whirlpools in rivers as a child.Every time a flood comes, the water in the river bed is turbulent and often forms a vortex.At this time, no one dared to swim in the river.I remember that once a lot of big rafts floated up in the river, and these kind of big rafts usually belong to whoever catches them.But that time the water was so big that no one dared to go down.At that time, there was a villager in the village who felt that he was good at water and insisted on going down, but no one could stop him.As a result, when he swam into the middle of the current, a big wave rolled over, and then a vortex with a diameter of about five meters rolled up in the middle of the river. This vortex remained in the center of the river for three minutes before disappearing.But the people on the shore never saw the villager again, and they didn't even find the body, so they don't know where it drifted to.

After the vortex appeared, everyone immediately became vigilant, and even Liu Ge couldn't help standing upright, staring at the water.I was still holding the dagger, and my fourth uncle was holding the pistol, but the pistol in front of me only had four bullets. It was really hard to say whether I could survive this catastrophe. Everyone stood outside the water, watching the movement in the water, feeling very nervous.I saw that the vortex was getting deeper and deeper, and it was as deep as one meter.After about five minutes, the water surface leveled off and the vortex disappeared.Looking around, the horizontal line has dropped by half a meter, so where did so much water go?Just when everyone was having trouble understanding the strange phenomenon in the water, a bucket-thick water column sprayed from the center of the water surface.This jet of water rushed straight into the top of the tomb, sprinkled over the entire tomb, and watered everyone all over.

The water column lasted for three minutes before it slowly subsided. At this time, everyone's clothes were already soaked.However, due to the high temperature underground, the temperature in the water is not as cold as the ground, otherwise it will definitely frostbite the body. After the water column disappeared, the water surface did not calm down.At this time, two green lights appeared on the surface of the water, and these two green lights shot around, like flashlights, brightly illuminating the tomb.Seeing this situation, everyone was terrified, not knowing what would happen next. The two bright lights in the lake quickly shot at us, and everyone gathered together unconsciously, like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.The two green lights slowly swam towards us. When the fourth uncle saw this, he shot at the green lights.The green light was not hit, but huge waves rolled up on the surface of the water, and in an instant a huge body about two meters high appeared in the water.It seems that the fourth uncle hit other parts of this thing.The upper part of this thing's body is a table-sized head, and the lower part is a neck, about one and a half meters long.This head is shaped like a donkey, but has a beard like a dragon. Seeing such a huge monster appear in this small tomb, everyone felt incredible.What on earth is there in this underground, where so many strange things are raised.Looking at the water monster in front of him, the monster that just appeared in the tomb of the "Jin" brand really looks like a small pet at home.This water monster seems to be at least ten meters long. If so, there must be water under the bottom of the lake, otherwise such a small amount of water would not be able to support such a giant. The fourth uncle's shot obviously wounded the water monster in front of him, and it came to the crowd as soon as its neck stretched and stretched, and it could swallow everyone up in the blink of an eye. Seeing that the water monster was about to bite us, the fourth uncle shot again, hitting one of the water monster's green lights.It seems that these two green lights are the eyes of this water monster.The injured water monster rushed like crazy, stretched out two thigh-thick front paws, danced in mid-air, and everyone was almost hit by it. The water monster didn't seem to be reconciled to not biting everyone, it shook off its giant, and charged at everyone again.After one of the water monster's green lights was broken, the other green light was still shooting around like a flashlight.Seeing the water monster attacking in the direction of Uncle Wu and Liu Ge, I said something bad in my heart.I immediately pushed away Liu Ge who couldn't dodge, and was pushed into the corner by the water monster.The water monster didn't seem to give up, it wanted to swallow me wholeheartedly.At this time, I had no way out, so I had to take advantage of the situation and climb onto the head of the water monster. Seeing that I had reached the top of its head, the water monster shook its head from side to side, trying to throw me to the ground, but I clung tightly to the two green light-like eyes and did not let go.At this moment, the water monster sank slowly, wanting me to let go.I saw that the water monster couldn't move at this time, and thought this was the best time to kill it.So I hugged the water monster's eye with my left hand, and stabbed the other eye of the water monster with a dagger in my right hand. How could the water monster withstand such pain, and immediately lifted its body up. I thought the damage to the water monster was serious this time, so I hurriedly stabbed a few more times.Since the Husa Knife is sharper, cutting gold and breaking jade, it is invincible, so the water monster is naturally in great pain.At this time, my body was covered with the blood of the water monster, and my wet clothes were even more bloody. The trauma suffered by the water monster this time seems to be relatively serious. In addition, the fourth uncle shot two shots in front, and the water monster has already shed a lot of blood, and the lake is full of red blood.I saw that the water monster was about to fall, so I stabbed the wound with a dagger a few more times.The water monster obviously couldn't bear the pain, its whole body was getting higher and higher, and it was about to push to the top of the tomb.Seeing that if this goes on, I will be turned into meat sauce, the fourth uncle shouted: "One water, jump down quickly, jump into the water." To be honest, at this time, the water surface was already about six meters high, and I was really a little scared.The previous tombs are all about three meters high, but this tomb is round in the middle, and it is actually six or seven meters high.But his life was at stake, so he had to give it a go.So I let go of the hand holding the water monster's eyes and jumped into the water. After jumping to the surface of the water, I saw this huge monster on the water showing its gray belly and two huge front paws. It seems that this big water monster is at least ten meters long.I swam to the shore, and my fourth uncle pulled me ashore and hid in the corner of the tomb. The water monster without eyes could only roar in the tomb, and its head kept hitting the top of the tomb, as if only in this way could reduce its pain.But the life of this water monster had already come to an end, and it staggered and fell down in the tomb.It may be that the lower body of the water monster is relatively heavy, and it slowly slid to the depths of the pool, and then sank into the bottom of the pool with its whole body, as if nothing had happened before its eyes. The near-miss tomb made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, but it didn't end there.Although everyone did not add new injuries to this tomb, it is not a comfortable thing to be wet all over.Now that we have arrived at the tomb of the "Shui" brand, there are two doors in this tomb in the Yin Eight Diagrams, namely the "Shang" door and the "Sheng" door.Find the "life" door, then everything will be hopeful. Thinking of this, everyone's spirits lifted, even Liu Ge's spirits came alive.Speaking of injuries, I remember my fourth uncle said that Dahei was injured in the ancient tomb and had a corpse change, why we were all injured but there was no corpse change. I also asked my fourth uncle about this matter afterwards, and my fourth uncle said that these four tombs have no connection with the main tomb, and how many animals and plants in the tombs need oxygen to maintain the tombs, so there should be no heavy corpse gas, so everyone was injured. No malignant transformation occurred. Closer to home, the fourth uncle found two doors according to the eight trigrams azimuth map.These two gates are the "injury" gate and the "birth" gate.There is also a box under the positions of these two doors, but the problem at hand is that the "Mu" tomb and the "Huo" tomb are adjacent to each other, and the two directions are opposite. It became the "Du" door, and the "death" door became the "shock" door.If everything is the opposite, it's easy to handle, as long as you find the "injury" door.But in the tomb of the "Jin" brand, there is an opposite tomb. In this tomb, the "open" door is the "open" door, and the "xiu" door is the "xiu" door.That is to say, it is uncertain whether the location of the "Shui" tomb has not changed or vice versa. Just when the fourth uncle hesitated, a few bricks fell from the top of the tomb and fell into the water.A lot of water fell into the tomb.The fourth uncle said: "It's broken. The structure of this tomb is relatively poor. When the water monster hit the tomb just now, it broke the bricks on the top of the tomb. Now there is groundwater flowing down." After the fourth uncle finished speaking, everyone looked When they reached the top of the tomb, the water fell with a splash, as if it was raining from the sky.The rain was not only heavy, but also poured down like a washbasin. Everyone secretly yelled that it was not good.If the water potential is like this, the tomb will soon be filled with groundwater.Time is running out, because everyone can see that the hole is slowly getting bigger.Soon the still water lake was full, unable to hold the water that fell in the tomb, and overflowed on the ground of the tomb.Everyone's shoes were soaked quickly, but the water above their heads did not show any signs of diminishing. The fourth uncle asked me to stand by the "injury" door, while he stood at the "birth" door. He asked me to take out the key and put it in the keyhole so that it would not move.If he turns the key and starts not the real "birth" door, then I will immediately open the "injury" door.Seeing my fourth uncle taking out the key from the "Sheng" door, I immediately took out the key and made corresponding preparations.But surprisingly, when the fourth uncle turned the key, the door directly in front opened. It was exhilarating, to finally be able to actually open the door of life and leave the tomb for one time.But there is no time to rejoice over all of this, because more and more water in the tomb has flowed to the outside of the tomb, overflowing the entire corridor. Fourth uncle asked me to pull out the key in the tomb and walk out of the tomb together.I supported Liu Ge, and my fourth uncle helped my fifth uncle to walk to the door of the tomb.When we left the tomb, the water outside had already exceeded our ankles, and the water flow was getting bigger and bigger, and the sound of the water flowing from the tomb was getting louder and louder. Thinking that there are still many traps outside, with our current physical condition, it is impossible to pass through, especially the trap pit.But what the fourth uncle thought was that it was so hard to come in, he didn't even gain anything, and he was injured all over, so it was not worth it, so the fourth uncle wanted to go into the main tomb. But in the current situation, it is important to escape first, and how to escape such a large current is the most important issue.At this time, everyone came to the exit, and the water in the passage had already submerged the passage to a depth of 30 to 40 centimeters, and the water was flowing towards the tomb passage. Seeing this, my fourth uncle asked me to help my fifth uncle.He picked up the engineer shovel that had been kept by his side and threw it towards the trap pit, only to see a huge vortex rolled up in the trap pit, and the water rushed towards the trap pit quickly.Due to the powerful impact of the water flow, the stone path of the trap pit was not closed, and the water flow all rushed to the trap pit of the tomb path. Everyone stood on the side of the tomb of the "Mu" brand, not daring to move, for fear of being washed into the trap pit by the current.Standing on the edge of the tomb passage, I saw that the dead man who couldn't get out because of the leg injury and the man who was crushed to death by the barbed iron pillar were also washed into the trap pit by the water.This flow of water lasted for more than ten minutes before the water gradually became weaker. I looked at the "Shui" tomb inside, and the water flowing out of it was no longer so urgent.Right now we have only one searchlight left to illuminate.The flashlight can no longer be used at this time because of the water, but even if the water does not enter, the battery there will not last long. The trap pit was soon closed again.The water in the tomb was just up to his ankles.However, the water falling from the top of the tomb is different from the water in the pool. This water is very cold, and there are still some ice cubes.It appears that these waters are close to the ground, otherwise the water would not be so cold. The question now is whether to enter the tomb.If we entered the main tomb, our battery power was low, and it was too cold in the tomb, and everyone's clothes were soaked.But if you don't enter the main tomb, this time it will be in vain. The main tomb is the focus of the tomb. It would be a pity not to give it a try, thinking of the few keys that have been obtained through all kinds of trials and tribulations.This ancient tomb must have been discovered a long time ago. If you go out this time, it will be difficult to enter a second time.Besides, everyone is injured now, and it will take a while to recuperate before leaving here for the second time.But next time, it's hard to say whether the tomb will be sealed. After analyzing the gains and losses for everyone, the fourth uncle decided to try whether the key in his hand could open the tomb. Perhaps the questions raised in so many strange tombs will be answered here. In fact, Uncle Fifth and Uncle Four and I are a family, mainly because Liu Ge agrees or disagrees.But at present, it seems that her position can no longer affect everyone's attitude, that is, the decision to enter the main tomb. Standing at the mechanism on the right side of the main tomb, the fourth uncle observed the key socket of the tomb.And I pay attention to the surroundings to prevent any dangerous things from appearing again.When I saw the "Shui" tomb, the door of that tomb was open, but I always felt that there was something missing in that tomb.I looked carefully at the periphery of the tomb, wondering what was missing.At this time, the fourth uncle took out the key from his pocket and said, "Yishui, give me your key." It was only then that I remembered that there was no mechanism outside the "Shui" tomb, that is to say, it is very likely that other tombs do not have keys, only the "Mu" tomb has keys.Why it came out like this?According to what the fourth uncle said, "wood" governs life and belongs to yang, but it is in the west, how can it be arranged like this?But in this way, it is easy to explain why the organs in the tomb can only go to the right and not to the left.Since the main door of the tomb is in the "Mu" tomb, if you want to go to other tombs, you must open the keys from the left in sequence. I handed over the keys in my hand to my fourth uncle. There were six keys in total, one for the "Wu" tomb, two for the "Huo" tomb, one for the "Jin" tomb, and two for the "Shui" tomb.Among them, a key lost in the "Mu" shop was opened by Zhang Lei and fell into the ground.In the tomb of the "Jin" brand, after the random knife shot down, the original key was immediately covered, and it was not taken out when leaving. But the door of the main tomb requires a total of four keys. Could it be that they are really four of the eight?If not these four, where did you find these four keys?But if it is four of these eight, it is not in line with common sense. How can one key open two locks? The fourth uncle seems to have been prepared for this question. He thinks that in this tomb, although we have experienced many dangers, compared with the Guishan Han Tomb, this tomb is still not big.In the limited tomb, we can only find these eight keys, so that is to say, only these eight keys may open the door of the tomb. It's hard for me to understand Fourth Uncle's bold guess, but Fourth Uncle has a plan in mind.I saw him arrange the six keys one by one, facing the searchlight, and observe the characters on them.These keys have been in my pocket for a long time, but I have never seen any characters on them. I don't know how Uncle Fourth knows.Then the fourth uncle found the three keys of the "surprise, open, life" door according to the six characters "Du, death, shock, open, life, injury" marked on the key.At this time, a problem arises. In the yin gossip, "scenery, surprise, opening, and birth" dominate yang, and "du, death, rest, and injury" dominate yin. So which keys can be used to open it? The fourth uncle stood up and looked at the organ in the tomb in front of him. The four keyholes did not have any hints for reference.If only the four keys of the main yang are used, obviously these four are incomplete, and if only the four keys of the main yin are used, it is also incomplete, because there are only three of them. Now there is one combination that is more reasonable, and this combination is to find the four keys that open the next door.This is quite easy, as long as you find out "Du, Shi, Kai, Sheng", these are the real doors of life. After everyone discussed and agreed, the fourth uncle took out four keys, inserted the keys from "wood, fire, gold, and water" in sequence, and then turned the keys to the right in sequence.What is quite surprising is that the four keys actually turned.Just after the turning of the "Sheng" key on the far right was completed, there was a sound of opening the main door of the tomb.
