Chapter 14 Chapter Fourteen

I was confused all of a sudden, I just crawled all the way through this coffin hole, but didn't find anything?Apart from the dead body that didn't know how long, where is there anything good? "What good thing?" I hurriedly asked, and then remembered that we were still in that coffin hole, so it was really inappropriate, so I hurriedly said, "Let's go out and talk about it!" "Okay!" Fatty Hu agreed with a big grin. I was busy curling up on the ground, turned my head, and then, holding the flashlight, I wanted to crawl out. But at this moment, the beam of light from my flashlight fell on the opening of the coffin, and I clearly saw a human face—it was a khaki face, with overlapping layers, wrinkles, and cloudy eyes. Now, under the beam of the flashlight, there is a strange luster.

Yes, it was a human face—and, at the same time, someone I knew well.Even last night, I personally handed him a cigarette. Old man ginger? That's right, the owner of this face is old man Jiang, but didn't Professor Qian say that old man Jiang died early this morning?It is impossible for Professor Qian and Xiao Zhang to be so old that they can't tell the difference between the living and the dead. But when Fatty Hu and I rushed to the loess house behind, the old man’s body disappeared—only a row of disgusting stench of rotting fish was left behind. How could this old man appear here?No, this person is already dead...

"Uncle Jiang?" I held up the flashlight and called out tentatively - firstly, I was afraid of accidental injury, and secondly, I also tried to see if he was dead or alive? However, that old man Jiang's face disappeared at the entrance of the coffin in an instant. Fatty Hu was blocked by me, but he didn't see this, so he asked impatiently behind me: "What's wrong?" "I saw old man Jiang!" I whispered. "Isn't he dead?" Fatty Hu asked. "Well, this old man is really weird!" As I said that, I quickly crawled towards the opening of the coffin. Regardless of whether the old man Jiang is a man or a ghost, anyway, once the old man is bad, I don't believe in this evil anymore. What's wrong with me?

I was only five or six steps away from the entrance of the coffin hole. Just as I was about to climb out of the coffin hole, a huge stone suddenly fell from the sky and hit me hard, making me tremble in fright, and hurriedly shrank my head. Still, the boulder fell almost against my head. If it weren't for my fast speed, I'm afraid that I would be the same as Xiao He Huang Chang, who was smashed beyond recognition by the stone and had my brain burst. "What's going on?" Fatty Hu asked hurriedly when he heard the sound from behind. "Someone blocked the hole with stones!" I said.

This damn old man Jiang, what does he want to do?Fatty Hu asked from behind, "Is that the old man?" "I guess so!" I said hastily. "This old man is really hateful!" Fatty Hu snorted, "He'd better pray that his life will fall into my hands, Fat Lord, otherwise, I will break his hand!" "You should think about our current situation!" I was depressed, now that the way out is blocked, how can we get out? "Can you try to push the stone away?" Fatty Hu was anxious behind me, but there was nothing he could do. In fact, needless to say, I have already tried to push the stone, but the stone was heavy and tight. I pushed it up with all my strength, like a dragonfly shaking a pole, and the big stone did not move in the wind...

"I can't push it!" I whispered, "What should I do?" "Boss Xu, get down, I'll crawl over you, I'll do it!" Fatty Hu shouted in a low voice, "You're really useless, you can't move a rock that an old man can move?" I wanted to justify a few words, but then I thought about it, the old man is so weird, I don't know if he is dead or alive?However, the way I looked at him, he was clearly a living person?But if he was alive, why did he come to this weird ancient tomb?Regardless of that, why did he block us in with stones? Harmful people need a little purpose, harming people without purpose really makes me feel incredible.

I lay on the ground, and it took some effort for Fatty Hu to crawl over me. In order to let him use his strength, I just lay on the ground, rubbed my feet, and took a few steps back. Fatty Hu retreated towards the boulder desperately——I sighed in my heart, if it wasn't for being in such a robbery hole, the two of us could push together, but now, I can only work hard for Fatty Hu. Moreover, Fatty Hu and I both know that if we can't push away the big rock, we will be trapped here to death. I lay down on the ground and held up a flashlight to illuminate Fatty Hu—but at this moment, someone suddenly grabbed my ankle with unusual force.

In an instant, I was scared out of my wits. Fatty Hu is now crawling in front of me, and there is no one else behind me. This thing grabbing my ankle is probably... not a good thing. I opened my mouth to greet Fatty Hu, but I couldn't say a word. It seemed that my throat was also blocked by a pair of invisible ones. Gradually, my consciousness began to blur, and it seemed that someone was saying something in my ears. I wanted to hear it, but I couldn't understand a word. In a blur, my eyes were dark, and I even had difficulty breathing. In a trance, I seemed to think of my childhood——I was only about ten years old at that time, and I was very naughty. I lived with my grandma in the country. During the busy season of farming, I stole my family's broken bicycle and rode it on the road for fun. As a result, I fell headlong into the ditch beside the road.

There are dense water peanuts growing in the ditch, covering the whole ditch. After I fell headlong, I felt dark. , but densely entangled hands and feet... The water peanuts on the top of my head are heavier than a thousand catties. I try my best to push it up, but I can’t hold it up——under the water, something grabs my ankle, which hurts my heart and makes me move. no. Only rotten smelly water was poured into my mouth and nose, and I had difficulty breathing, and I was unconscious... "Dang——" There was a death knell beating fiercely in my mind, the voice just now was still talking in my ears, I couldn't hear anything clearly...

There was a loud "bang", the sound of the death knell, interrupted by this sound, I only heard vaguely: "The heaven and earth are missing——" In an instant, I had an idea, the clothes that were already a little dry were drenched in cold sweat, and Fatty Hu shouted in front of him: "Damn it, I don't believe in this evil, a piece of broken stone, just trying to trap Fatty!" Lord me?" Outside, there was fresh air blowing in, I took a deep breath, Fatty Hu had crawled out, reached in, and shouted: "Boss Xu, don't pretend to be dead, come out!"

I almost used my hands and feet, and crawled out in a panic. Fatty Hu was really good. The huge rock was pushed to the ground by him. The loud bang just now was the sound of the stone being pushed away. This guy actually has a lot of strength in his arms, and it seems that he is not just bragging. I crawled out of the coffin hole, but I was full of anger, and I didn't appreciate Fatty Hu pushing the big stone away. If this guy hadn't dawdled in there, I would have come out a long time ago, and I wouldn't let that damn Jiang The old man blocked it with big stones, so I said angrily, "Fatty Hu, you'd better explain to me clearly, what did you do in there just now?" While I was talking, panting heavily, Fatty Hu wiped the sweat off his brow, and cursed: "Fatty, I pushed the stone, didn't you see it?" "I mean, why did you turn off the flashlight and go somewhere when I came out first?" I asked. "Look, Fatty, I found this!" Fatty Hu said while handing me a Luoyang shovel, and at the same time took out a paratrooper knife, gestured twice in his hand, and said, "Inside Is there a robbery hole?" "Stealing a hole?" I was stunned, these are all stone walls, and it is definitely not an easy task to dig a thief's hole. "That's right!" Fatty Hu nodded and said, "The white bones we saw inside just now presumably did the same thing as the two of us, but luck was not as good as ours. It’s just that this guy is so poor that he only has such a little property.” "Our luck is not so good!" I smiled wryly. "Hey..." Fatty Hu laughed strangely, gestured to the paratrooper knife again, and said with a smile, "Although this thing has rusted a little, it can still be used anyway!" "Why did you turn off the flashlight just now?" I asked with a frown. If Fatty Hu hadn't turned off the flashlight, he wouldn't have turned back to find him in a hurry, and was trapped to death in the coffin hole by old man Jiang. "That damned flashlight doesn't live up to expectations, it won't turn on if it doesn't light up, it's more coddled than girls!" Fatty Hu scolded, "By the way, what about that damned old man Jiang, fat man, I'm going to skin him, Twist his tendons, dare to rape me?" "You came out first, didn't you see him?" I asked. "No!" Fatty Hu shook his head and said, "Boss Xu, you can see clearly, is it really that old man?" "Of course!" I agreed, just now under the beam of the flashlight, I could see clearly, how could it not be the old man?While talking, I already held up the flashlight and looked around. This should be a passage?It is about 2.2 meters high and about 1.5 meters wide. Relatively speaking, it is quite narrow. In front, there is cold wind penetrating in. Could it be that there is an exit in front? "Boss Xu, what kind of place is this?" Fatty Hu asked, "Why is there wind?" "I don't know, look for it quickly, maybe there is a way out!" I said hastily, and then I couldn't help turning around, looking at the coffin hole, remembering the thrilling scene inside just now, if it wasn't for Hu Finally, the fat man pushed the stone away with all his might, and the loud noise dispelled my inner demons. I am afraid that at this time, I would already be dead inside. After a hundred years, I would be like the original tomb robber, turning into bones... Fatty Hu is not stupid anymore at this time, he said with a smile: "We are going to the windy place, don't you often say, Feng Shui Feng Shui - where there is wind and water, there must be a way to survive?" "I said something else, why didn't you remember?" I was like Fatty Hu. I turned on the flashlight and looked around. The tide is high, and even the ground is full of water. I hope that Fatty Hu is really a lucky star, so that we can turn bad luck into good luck. "I still remember one sentence - is the golden scale a thing in the pool, it will become a dragon when it meets the wind and moon..." Fatty Hu took the backpack from his back and rummaged through it. As soon as I heard about the dragon, I immediately became furious and cursed, "Long, your mother's head!" "My mother is your godmother!" Fatty Hu laughed strangely. I really don't know what to say. I made friends with Fatty Hu, so I recognized his mother as a godmother. There is nothing wrong with that. After thinking about it, I can only sigh: "It's just Fengyun, not Fengyue..." "Whether he is Fengyun or Fengyue, they are all good things anyway!" Fatty Hu laughed. This Fengyun and Fengyue are related, but if I want to explain to Hu Fatty what is Fengyun and Fengyue, I’m afraid I can’t explain clearly, so I honestly shut my mouth, and Hu Fatty is in the backpack After rummaging through it, I found a sealed plastic bag, handed it to me and said, "I'm confused, just take it!" "This is a miner's hat?" When I saw it, my eyes were red. This guy was wearing a miner's hat, but he didn't take it out?Damn Fatty Hu, he just let me fumble around in this underground world. "It took me a lot of effort to steal it from someone else, hehe..." Fatty Hu smiled dejectedly. Steal... come here?I just feel like my head is getting bigger, this damn Fatty Hu can really do anything. I didn't bother to be polite to Fatty Hu, so I immediately put the miner's hat on my head, screwed up the wolf eyes on it, and a bright beam of light immediately shone in the dark corridor. "Haha..." Fatty Hu suddenly laughed. "Fatty, are you crazy?" I looked at him puzzled, full of complaints, it didn't matter if this guy smiled, but it surprised me. "No..." Fatty Hu laughed even more presumptuously when he heard this, "I just thought about it, you are a firefly in the darkness now, Fatty, I can find you wherever you go!" I was so angry that I kicked Fatty Hu. Fatty Hu was busy carrying his backpack, turned around and ran away. "Don't walk around, be careful there are traps!" I hurriedly told Fatty Hu, don't rush in, there are many traps in this place, if you are not careful, you may be doomed, "Fatty Hu...your ass..." The wolf eyes on the top of the miner's hat are very bright. I saw Fatty Hu's buttocks at a glance. The pants have been torn, and there are black scales on the exposed bare buttocks, revealing an indescribable weirdness. I remembered that in the coffin hole just now, Fatty Hu once said that the monster that Xiao He and Huang Chang twisted into bit his ass? Could it be that Fatty Hu has turned into a dead body? "Fatty, stop!" I yelled sternly. Seeing that I was speaking cautiously, Fatty Hu stopped quickly and asked, "Fatty Master, what happened to my ass? We are not a big girl's butt, so don't fumble around..." "There's something on your ass..." I said urgently. "Where is it?" Fatty Hu said while reaching out to touch his buttocks. "Don't move, let me see!" As I said, I grabbed Fatty Hu and told him to lie down. I didn't care too much, and asked him to take off his pants for me to see. Fatty Hu was also a little anxious. He didn't care about so much, so he took off his pants immediately. I could see clearly under the miner's lamp that black scales grew densely on Fatty Hu's originally fat buttocks, like snakes. scales, and exudes a rotten fishy smell... "Boss Xu, what's the matter?" Fatty Hu asked me anxiously, "I was bitten by that monster, and it hurt at first, but then I didn't feel anything." I stomped my feet and sighed, the problem was because I didn’t feel it. The monster that Xiao He and Huang Chang twisted into was indeed poisonous. This fat man was obviously poisoned by corpses. However, there is no medical equipment in such places nowadays. But what to do? I thought about it, and said in a low voice, "Fatty, don't be afraid of the pain, I'll peel off the snake scales for you!" "Snake scales?" Fatty Hu, who was not afraid of the sky and the earth, not only shuddered at this time, if anyone had snake scales on their buttocks, they would panic. If it were me, I would be even worse. . "Boss Xu, just do it!" Fatty Hu gritted his teeth. "Yeah!" I agreed, and for a while, I couldn't find someone to take advantage of, so I took the ancient bronze sword and carefully scraped off the snake scale with tenacity. Who knew that the snake scales seemed to be fused with Fatty Hu's skin. As soon as I shaved it, Fatty Hu cried out in pain. "Don't call!" I scolded, "Do you want to become monsters like Xiao He and Huang Chang?" It was a monster with two people twisted together, and it was covered with ugly snake scales... I don't know about these things, but my grandpa——from his description, he should have also encountered such a strange change, probably because he was poisoned by a corpse, so in the end, my grandpa also turned into that kind of snake all over the place An ugly monster with scales, grandma saw the bag on his head, it should not be a bag, but someone else's head, fused with him. However, I don't know what method my grandfather used, but he still retained his original consciousness until his death.It would be fine if there was complete ignorance of such terrifying mutations, but if the whole process was clear, people would have the desire to go crazy in the boundless panic and helplessness.Under such circumstances, grandpa was still able to figure out what kind of consciousness was supporting him when he sent things home. "Boss Xu, hurry up!" Fatty Hu grinned in pain and shouted. "Okay!" I didn't care about Fatty Hu's pain, so I raised the ancient bronze sword and slashed at the scale of the snake, waiting to make a cut. A snake scale the size of a snake was torn off forcefully. Fatty Hu screamed in pain, and I pretended not to hear it—it was really strange to say that the snake scales seemed to be fused with Fatty Hu's buttocks, but there was no blood, just under the snake scales that I peeled off. , the skin showed a strange light red, and in this light red, because the miner's lamp on my head was relatively bright, I actually saw a thumb-sized black shadow hidden in the skin, which was constantly twisting and struggling. "Boss Xu, are you alright?" Fatty Hu asked anxiously. "No, hold on!" I said hastily. While speaking, I hastily pulled out the rubber gloves and put them on. Then, I directly cut open Fatty Hu's skin with the ancient bronze sword. Sure enough, under the light of the miner's lamp Next, a black thing looms. I didn't care whether Fatty Hu was afraid of the pain, so I put on my gloves and poked my fingers into the wound. Finally, I grabbed the thing and pulled it out desperately. Fatty Hu yelled like a pig being killed in pain, and while yelling, he cursed: "Boss Xu, you... this is murder for money..." I didn't bother to pay attention to Fatty Hu who was talking nonsense, and pulled the thing out of Fatty Hu's ass with all my strength. Like, soft and sticky, it looks like a locust in a rural ditch. It's just that the leeches are all yellow and black, unlike this thing, which not only has scales, but is also completely black. I felt nauseous for no reason, I used that thing on the ground fiercely, pointed at it and shouted: "Fatty Hu, take a look for yourself, take a look - did I murder myself for money?" It wasn't until this time that the blood flowed from Fatty Hu's buttocks. I was relieved when I saw the bright red blood, and I was busy taking out the spare gauze to wrap Fatty Hu's wound. "Fatty, my ass—" After I finished tossing, Fatty Hu pulled up his pants in a hurry, and at the same time stomped on the black thing hard, and immediately smashed it to pieces. "Probably this is the thing that killed Xiao He and Huang Chang!" I sighed. "What the hell is this?" Fatty Hu kicked it hard on the ground twice. The thing had already been trampled to pieces by him, and now, the scum was even stuck to the blue floor tiles. "I don't know, it looks like a leech!" I said. The leech is a scavenger and likes blood. I heard from the old man that when transplanting rice seedlings, once a little bit of a leg is broken and the leech gets in, it will burrow in desperately. If it is found early, You can also dig it out, but if it is too late, it will be troublesome. This thing is very extravagant, even if it is torn apart by life, it refuses to come out - although looking at the little guy, it is really terrifying. Moreover, the leech is a common mollusc in mountain ditches, which is not unusual.It is said that the most powerful thing is that this thing can penetrate into the internal organs of a person along the blood vessels. Every time I think of it, I can't help but sweat all over my body. "Be careful!" I have lingering fears, Fatty Hu discovered it early, if it is too late, I am afraid that he will end up in the same end as Xiao He and Huang Chang, no!And I…… Once Fatty Hu loses his mind, and I am defenseless, I am afraid that I will be the first to bear the brunt of it, and I will be infected by him. "You ass, it's better not to get wet!" I instructed. "I don't want to get wet either, it's just—" Fatty Hu shook his head and hurriedly picked up his backpack and said, "It's important that we find Dandan quickly." I nodded, that girl has been separated from us for such a long time, I'm afraid it's a bad luck.While speaking, Fatty Hu was already stroking his buttocks and walking forward. I was also busy following up - I hope there will be an exit at the end of the corridor, but God knows what is waiting for us at the end of the corridor? At the end of the corridor, the terrain suddenly opened up, without the original crowded pressure, I took a deep breath, God knows, people are in an extremely low and sealed environment, and they will go crazy even if they don't die.When I was in the coffin hole, if Fatty Hu hadn't been so powerful and pushed the big stone at the entrance of the hole desperately, I was afraid that I would kill myself before I could suffocate. I really can't stand that kind of narrow claustrophobia-I suspect that I may have a slight claustrophobia. Of course, as an archaeologist, I am afraid no one will believe that I have claustrophobia. Archaeologists often need to go deep into the catacombs to investigate, not just stay in the laboratory and play with antiques. The further I go, the lower the temperature feels. Moreover, the air is indeed flowing, and it feels like wind, but it is not the feeling of the wind blowing on my body outside, which is really weird and tight. Fatty Hu who was walking in front shivered shiveringly, and asked, "Why is it so cold?" "The further you go underground, the colder it will be, and there is an underground river here, so it will be colder!" I could only explain this, and after thinking about it, I said, "Besides, our clothes were soaked just now. Can it not be cold?" "You're right!" Fatty Hu said. However, the more we wanted to move forward, the colder we felt. Our shoes made an unpleasant creaking sound when we stepped on the ground. I looked down and was stunned. The original green brick floor now seems to have a thin layer of ice. ice?How can there be ice in this place?Could it be that this tomb was built using underground glaciers?That's right, what better way to preserve a body than freezing it? However, such a temperature is absolutely not enough-I admit that it is very cold here, but it is not enough to use this temperature to preserve the remains. "Boss Xu, there is someone in front!" Fatty Hu suddenly whispered. I followed Fatty Hu's gaze, and sure enough, not far ahead, along the walls on both sides, stood a person on each side. Under the unbearably bright miner's lamp, the figure was in a trance, and it looked more and more ghostly. . "Could it be old man Jiang?" Fatty Hu asked me in a low voice. "No!" I shook my head repeatedly, old man Jiang was alone, but there were obviously two people here, "Be careful, let's go and have a look!" "Maybe it's the professor and Xiao Zhang!" Fatty Hu was optimistic, thinking of Professor Qian and Xiao Zhang, he said in a low voice. "It doesn't look like—the clothes don't look like it!" I shook my head, but I knew in my heart that those two people could never be Professor Qian and Xiao Zhang. Immediately, the two of us boldly took a few steps forward, and I could see clearly that the two of them were wearing battle robes, they were clearly not modern people, but two servants, but this one was so weird, Unlike the bronze servants I saw just now. "It's a servant!" I whispered. "Scared the fat man!" Fatty Hu gave a strange laugh, and strode forward. The closer I get to those two servants, the more I feel something is wrong. This is definitely not like an ordinary servant. An indescribable feeling comes to my heart. I can't tell whether it is fear or panic... "Xu...boss, this is too similar..." Fatty Hu took out the flashlight from his pocket, and took a photo of the servant. Indeed, the servant was lifelike, and even the skin color and hair on his face were the same as the real person's. It's the same, with a pair of pale eyes, full of endless panic, unwillingness... anger... As soon as my gaze touched those eyes, my heart trembled, and my whole body couldn't help trembling for a while. I see, this is not a servant - this is a living person! Of course, they were alive hundreds of years ago, but now, they are definitely dead... "Fatty Hu, this is a wax man!" I whispered. "What?" Fatty Hu boldly stretched out his hand to poke the wax figure, and asked, "That's what you said, the wax figure from the wax figure hall?" "No!" I shook my head and said, "The wax figures in the wax man museum are all made of wax using superb technology, but this one is coated with a special layer of wax on the body of a living person. !" I finally understood why the temperature in this place is so low. It was originally to preserve these wax figures-indeed, it is impossible to preserve the remains intact at such a low temperature, but to preserve the layer painted on the living people Wax does not melt, but there is absolutely no problem. "God, look, there's still..." Fatty Hu said while pointing the flashlight ahead. "Go, let's go and have a look!" As I spoke, I pulled out the ancient bronze sword, and walked forward together with Fatty Hu. We had just walked a few steps, when we suddenly heard a thud behind us, as if something had fallen in a low voice. I shivered in fright, and hurriedly turned around to look, only to see that the wax figure that was poked by Fatty Hu just now, the clothes all over his body had been turned into ashes, and the entire wax figure fell to the ground. "Is this clothes made of flour?" Fatty Hu asked puzzled, "I just poked it!" I shook my head. The clothes on this wax figure are just ordinary fabrics, and have not undergone any special treatment. Therefore, although they are placed here for hundreds of years, although the color looks fresh, they have actually decayed long ago. The fat man poked it for a while, and it naturally melted... "It's moving—" Suddenly, Fatty Hu whispered, "Look, its hands..." I was busy following Fatty Hu's gaze, looking over like a wax figure lying on the ground, the wax figure was indeed moving—but, it wasn't some corpse change, but the wax figure was destroyed by Fatty Hu and preserved for thousands of years His corpse began to rot the moment it saw the wind. Soon, some black-red rotting liquid flowed out from under the body of the wax figure—this wax figure was definitely made into a wax figure while alive, and what preservatives might have been forced to eat before he was alive? "Let's go, don't pay attention to this wax man!" I said hastily, because of such a sealed occasion, God knows how many poisonous bacteria are there in the rotting corpse?The most urgent thing is to leave as soon as possible. Fatty Hu looked at the wax man, shook his head, turned and walked forward. These wax figurines should be funerary objects, and they are all in pairs. Judging from the clothes they are wearing, they should belong to civil and military officials?If so judged, wouldn't there be hundreds of wax figures?And the owner of this tomb, could it be that he is the supreme emperor? It's just that the absurd emperor will be buried with all civil and military officials? Looking along the way, the ages of these wax figures are also different. Some are in their prime, while others are already very old... If it is in troubled times, there are many absurd kings. When I think about it, I feel relieved. Suddenly, Fatty Hu who came to the front shouted in panic: "Boss Xu——" Fatty Hu has always been a person who is not afraid of heaven and earth, but this time, there was an indescribable panic in his voice, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying. I followed Fatty Hu's fingers and looked over. It was also a wax figure, wearing the unique robes of ancient scholar-bureaucrats, and his face was full of furrows and wrinkles. However, I am very familiar with this face - that person is definitely old man Jiang. "It's him, it's him!" Fatty Hu's fingers trembling as he held up the flashlight, he wasn't afraid of rice dumplings or any monsters, but no one would be able to accept such things as hell. "Maybe, it's just that they look similar?" I swallowed and explained with some difficulty. "No... no..." Fatty Hu shook his head again and again, "Damn it, it's really bad luck, hell!" I thought of old man Jiang's various eccentric behaviors. Could it be that the old man is really a ghost?And now, he is about to lead us astray step by step... Thinking of it this way, I broke out in cold sweat all over my body, and my palms were wet. "I remembered!" I suddenly shouted, "Fatty Hu, I remember that there is a scar on the back of old man Jiang's right hand!" "Yes!" Fatty Hu nodded and said, "I also asked him, and he said that when he was young, he went up the mountain to cut firewood and was accidentally scratched by a stone." "Look at this man, is there any scar on the back of his hand!" I took a deep breath and tried to calm down. There are many people with similar appearance, but they will definitely not have the same scars. I don't know how long this wax figure has been here. How could it be old man Jiang? Yesterday evening, Old Man Jiang talked to us and smoked a cigarette—even if he was a ghost, how did he crawl out of the black hole before it opened? It's just that this wax figurine is wearing a long scholar-bureaucrat robe, and his hands are hidden in the sleeves, so he can't see it at all.Fatty Hu took out the Luoyang shovel he had just snatched from the corpse, and carefully opened his robe. The next moment, both of us were stunned. Even Fatty Hu, who was not afraid of anything, trembled in fright. The Luoyang shovel in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter. On the back of the wax figure's right hand, there was a scar, which was exactly the same as the scar on old man Jiang's hand. Yesterday evening, I once lit old man Jiang's cigarette - that was absolutely unmistakable. After calming down for a while, Fatty Hu bent down and picked up the Luoyang shovel from the ground, staring at Old Man Jiang.I groaned in pain, my God, what happened to us? Suddenly, I suddenly remembered all the things I experienced last night. The loess was dark and the lights were shining brightly. Could it be that the whole Huangtu Village is a ghost village? Fatty Hu stared at old man Jiang's wax figurine, and gripped the Luoyang shovel tightly, but after all, the Luoyang shovel in the fat man's hand did not fall. I dragged Fatty Hu and ran away - I only have one thought now, and that is to get out of here quickly, and I can't care about anything else. Running all the way, there are wax figures with different expressions on both sides, but they have one thing in common. They all stared at a pair of pale eyes, staring coldly at us, the uninvited guests who broke in. "Fatty, there is light ahead, we are saved!" I gasped heavily, pointing at the blue light ahead. "That's a will-o'-the-wisp!" Suddenly, a cold voice came from behind me, but it was definitely not Fatty Hu's voice. "Fatty?" I turned around suddenly, and Fatty Hu was standing behind me. "Fatty Hu, what nonsense are you talking about?" I couldn't help saying angrily. "I didn't say anything!" Fatty Hu looked at me blankly and said, "Didn't you say there is light ahead? Where is the light?" That cold voice just now wasn't Fatty Hu, so who was it?Will-o'-the-wisp?Thinking about it this way, I turned around again and looked forward. It was dark in front of me. Where is there any light? Could it be that it's really a will-o'-the-wisp? "I just saw something with light!" I explained in a low voice. "You're blind——" Fatty Hu didn't say the word "ghost" after all. After experiencing such absurd things as old man Jiang, he probably believed it in his heart—the legend about "ghost"? I gritted my teeth, fear is nothing, we can't find a way out, we will turn into ghosts sooner or later, probably because we were overly frightened, I actually shouted: "Go, go and have a look!" Fatty Hu nodded, and we walked a few steps forward. Suddenly, under the lamp post of my miner's lamp, a piece of white cloth suddenly appeared on the ground. "What is this?" I asked puzzled. "Dandan's handkerchief!" Fatty Hu picked up the white cloth from the ground with a Luoyang shovel. This white cloth must be a modern item, definitely not an ancient one. Moreover, Fatty Hu recognized it immediately, it was Dandan's handkerchief . "Are you sure?" I couldn't help touching the cold sweat on my head, Dandan—this girl whose whereabouts are unknown, did she also enter here by mistake? "I saw her use it!" Fatty Hu hurriedly said. "Go!" Without saying a word, I strode forward. I was very scared, but no matter what, Dandan came in with us, we can't leave her alone, it's fine if we can't find her whereabouts, since we found her, we absolutely can't miss it. But just after we took a few steps forward, I saw a person leaning against the wall - Dandan? I whispered, "Dandan, is that you?" The man didn't say a word. I remembered that when Dandan was with us, he was a little delirious because of the snake poison. I was afraid that it would be even more useless at this time, so I walked over quickly. The miner's lamp above my head seemed not as bright as it used to be. Under the beam of light, I could clearly see that person—where is Dandan?It turned out to be a scarecrow, wrapped in navy blue cloth, leaning against the wall. scarecrow? I immediately remembered that I had seen this scarecrow before, in Huangtu Village—and those green eyes, but why did this scarecrow come to this ancient tomb? "Isn't this scarecrow the old man's scarecrow?" Fatty Hu also recognized it and called out in a low voice. "Nonsense!" I gritted my teeth and cursed, "Elder Jiang can come in, let alone this?" "You said that wax figure is really old man Jiang?" Fatty Hu shrank his head, and his originally burly figure looked a little short now. "God knows!" I shook my head and said, "It doesn't matter if it's a person... It's important to find Dandan first, and then find a way out quickly." "We've been looking for a way out!" Fatty Hu said, "Boss Xu, don't be so clueless, okay?" 我听得出胡胖子语气中的抱怨,这家伙不久前还想着要开棺发财,这个时候大概是被姜老头下破胆子了,也想着要找出路离开,当即低声道:“我都不知道这是何人的墓葬——到底处于什么年代,你让我如何下手?” “那我们难道就听天由命?”胡胖子瞪着我道。 “现在,也只能够走一步,算一步了!”我摇头道,“我们还活着!”说这句话的时候,我心中苦涩,早知道,钱教授管我叫“爷爷”,我都不来这该死的黄土村。 但是,这世上没有后悔药,所以,我大步的向前走去。 前方,一个巨大的空间,就这么出现在我们面前,我举着手电筒,愣然的看着展现在我们面前的怪物——这是龙,还是蛇?或者都不是?只是某种怪物? “这是什么东西?”胡胖子也震惊住了。 在矿工灯下,我看的分明,这应该算是一棵树——树干的直径大概有着三四十公分,很是粗大了,但是,这不是让我们震惊的缘由。 让我们震惊,甚至难以言喻的,是这棵树的形状,它蜿蜒缠绕,整个形状像极了盘在地上的蛇,不——它的树冠,并不是蛇首,而是像极了传说中的龙。 我头顶的矿工灯晃动了一下子,我清楚的看到,那说不清楚是什么树的东西,竟然在缓缓蠕动。 “它在动!”胡胖子低声道,“这难道就是龙?” “当然不是!”我用力的摇头道,“现在的园艺工匠,如果精修修缮培养,也绝对可以弄出这样的怪物来的……只是……只是……它会动……” 说实话,我震惊莫名,这到底算什么东西?没有枝叶,只有一杆光秃秃的树干,偏生——这树干扭曲成龙…… 我之所以没有说它像蛇,而是像龙,因为它唯一的分枝,就是头部的龙角。胡胖子眼尖,突然叫道:“徐老大,快快——那丫头被它缠着了,你看……” 我顺着胡胖子手指的方向看了过去,那该死的怪物,扭曲中果然缠着一个人,看那衣服的模样,确实就是丹丹。 胡胖子取出枪来,对着那怪物的头部就是重重的一枪,但是,那怪物只是扭曲了一下子,子弹根本就奈何不了它。 它的本质应该是不知道名称的树木——子弹自然是奈何不了它。 胡胖子把枪插在裤腰带上,举着洛阳铲,大步向前走去,丹丹不知道是死是活,但也不能眼睁睁就看着她被这怪异的大树给缠死。 “等等!”我忙着一把拉住胡胖子道,“我知道这是上面怪物了!” “上面怪物?”胡胖子皱了一下眉头,问道。 “藤龙!”我低声道,“我看过一本书上有记载——” 如果我没有记错的话,姥姥留给我的葬龙诀上,曾经有过这样的记载——幽冥之界,黑鳞藤树,食腐而生,断根而亡,往气成龙! 照字面意思分析,这应该是一种叫做藤龙的怪树,依靠腐烂的尸体而生存,要断了它的根系,才会死亡,我调整了一下矿工灯,照在树身上,那一块块剥落的树皮,看着就向是一块块黑色的鳞片,可不就是黑鳞? 但是,最后一句望气成龙,我却是一点也不明白是什么意思?是不是意味着,一旦望气成龙,就算是断了它的根系,它也不会死了? 我对胡胖子解释了一下子,胡胖子瞪着眼睛白了我一眼,哼了一声道:“这不没说?” 我跺脚骂道:“你知道什么?这藤龙树根下面,势必埋葬着大量的腐尸,否则,也不会形成这样的怪树!而且,根据葬龙诀记载,这树质坚硬如钢铁,刀斧难损其分毫,吐黑液,沾者糜烂化脓……” 说白了,这就是一颗食人树,我却是越想越是心惊胆战,也不知道丫头被这怪树缠住多久了,还有没有得救? 这藤龙能够分泌出一种黑色的液体,沾染到人畜身上,就会糜烂化脓…… “把丫头救出来就好,不用和它纠缠!”我嘱咐道。 我把青铜古剑收好,伸手向胡胖子道:“把你的斧子和洛阳铲给我,我去挖它的老根,你去想法子吸引它的注意力。”这青铜古剑可是上古神器,要是不小心被我乱砍乱弄的,折断了可就罪过了。 “它还会动啊?”胡胖子问道。 “明摆着的,你没见它在蠕动?”我低声道,“你要小心,这树分泌出来的液体有着强烈的腐蚀作用,别让它粘着。” “没事,看胖爷我的!”胡胖子一边说着,一边已经大步向着藤龙走去。 胡胖子怕鬼,可不怕这怪物藤龙,我趁机握着洛阳铲,向着藤龙的树根走去,这家伙盘旋在地上,这树根可不是好挖的。 但要是不把树根挖出来,丫头就彻底没得救了。 事实上,丹丹那丫头现在也不知道是死是活——一切只是尽人事,听天命了。 走到近处,我越发感慨造物者之神奇,这藤龙明明就是一颗树,长得像龙就算了,居然还会缓缓的蠕动? 走到藤龙近前,我的鼻子里闻到一股腐烂的鱼腥味,证实了我原本的猜测,这东西果然是依靠腐烂的尸体做养分的。 抬头,它扭曲的身体里面,依稀卷着一个人,看衣着,应该就是丹丹没错。 我一咬牙,举着斧子就对着藤龙的根部狠狠的砍了下去,但是,我手中的斧子宛如是砍在了石头上,铮的一声大响,震得我虎口发痛。 被我用力的一砍,异变陡生——藤龙竟然不断地扭曲起来,同时,龙首向下,一瞬间垂下无数的触须,胡胖子惨叫道:“徐老大,这是什么东西?” 我抬头看过去,只见胡胖子的手上脖子上,都被藤龙的触须死死的缠住,也亏得是这胖子,换成普通人,只怕老早吓得魂飞魄散,不知所措了。 而这胡胖子居然挥舞着伞兵刀,对着那些触须砍杀过去,这胡胖子完全没有防备之心,只一下子,就被龙须缠住,顿时就处于劣势。 那些触须都不粗,大概是新生的,倒没有老根系那么坚硬,胡胖子能够轻易的砍断,只是那触须实在太多太多了,密密麻麻、层层叠叠的缠着胡胖子。 大概我处于藤龙的根部,倒还好,虽然也有几根触须过来,但被我几斧子过去,全都砍断了。
