Chapter 15: Mud Corpses
How did I get here? The question flashed through my mind, but only because fear had taken over my body. www.biquge.info Can you imagine what it would be like to be alone in a dark tomb with a coffin? Maybe you only know by experiencing it yourself. I stayed there for a quarter of an hour, staring at the coffin without blinking, as if I was afraid that a female ghost would suddenly jump out of the coffin and catch me.
Staring, I suddenly saw that the lid of the coffin seemed to move, and a chill immediately penetrated my body, from the top of my head to my heels. Am I mistaken? I closed my eyes and looked carefully at the coffin lid, and suddenly, there was a sound of "squeak, squeak", with this sound, the coffin lid slowly moved to the side, my head "buzzed", and I almost fainted, "Nima, it's not a corpse!" I thought to myself.
"Bang dang", there was a loud bang, the coffin lid fell to the ground, I shuddered, and then, slowly poked out of the coffin a round thing, as if it was a head, but it was larger than the average person's head, and then a round body in the middle of winter, I thought: "It must be a blister zongzi, all of which have been soaked." Unexpectedly, after the thing stood up from the coffin, he said to himself: ", what's going on?" What is this place? When I heard it, damn, isn't this a chubby voice? I felt indescribable at the time, and I was surprised and delighted, I finally saw my relatives, I looked at it carefully, this big head and fat Dun Dun body are not fat and who is it? I couldn't say anything excited, I stood up and ran towards the coffin, and the little fat saw something get up from the ground and run towards him, and shouted: "Not good, zongzi!" Turning around and about to run, I hurriedly shouted: "Chubby, it's me, Guo Xiangdong."
As soon as Xiaopang heard my voice, he came back to his senses and crawled out of the coffin to my approach: "Mom, I'm scared to death, Brother Dong, it turned out to be you, why are you here?" ”
I said, "I don't know, I remember sleeping in my room at the Kunlun Hotel, and when I woke up, I found this place." ”
"True Evil Gate", Xiaopang said: "I woke up that day and found that you were not in the room, I thought you went out for a walk, but you didn't come back at noon, only to find that you were missing, we looked for you all day, how did you sneak here by yourself." ”
"Damn, did I wander around on my own?" I said, "Fortunately, I didn't take off my clothes before I fell asleep, or you wouldn't think I came naked." It's weird, who got me here? What is the purpose? ”
"Gollum ......"
"What sound?" I exclaimed.
"It's your stomach calling", Xiaopang said: "Don't think so much, you have been missing for two days, you must be hungry, fortunately my uncle often tells me to be prepared, I have everything ready here", after speaking, he took off his backpack from behind him, opened it and took a look, it was really complete, what bread, biscuits, canned food, ham sausage, mineral water, everything. Only then did I feel really hungry, and I didn't care that this was a burial chamber, so I devoured it.
Xiaopang looked at Zhile from the side: "Damn, I have to be scared away by you when I see the zongzi, if you don't have to eat, you can't catch a few zongzi pawns (Beijing dialect, the meaning of eating), haha." ”
After eating for a while, I finally got a little bit of a bottom, and I asked Chubby, "How did you get here?" What about the others? ”
According to Xiaopang, after I disappeared that day, they looked for me all day and didn't find it, and then the girl named Cheng Jiao received a call from their boss and was told that she didn't need to look for it anymore, and acted according to the plan, Zhang Ziheng felt very strange, saying that if there was no Guo Xiangdong, this operation might be futile and could not be successful, that Cheng Jiao said that this was what the boss meant, and Zhang Ziheng didn't say anything more. After that, they were divided into two groups according to the original agreement, one group was Tang Ying, Hu Qi, Cheng Jiao, and the other group was Wu Lan, Xiaopang, and Zhang Ziheng, saying that they would go to Yuquan Mountain to meet, but when they arrived, how could they wait for Cheng Jiao's group, Zhang Ziheng called their boss, saying that Cheng Jiao's group was delayed on the road, and let their group act first, and told them that in Yuquan Villa under Yuquan Mountain, there will be someone from the boss to pick them up.
"We were not taken to Yuquan Mountain, but to a nearby dry rest house, a compound that was some years old, and it was empty, only a small building that seemed to be from the fifties and sixties, and there was no one else in it", Xiaopang said, "When we got there, it was already dark, and the soldier arranged us in three rooms, saying that we would rest there at night, and we would act after Cheng Jiao and the others arrived." ”
"Zhang Ziheng, their boss still has a connection with the military?" , I said: "That Yuquan Mountain is one of the eight views of Yanjing, it used to be the emperor's summer resort, after the liberation it became a military and political important place that was blocked layer by layer, and ordinary people were not allowed to enter, and Zhongnanhai was called Beijing's two major 'forbidden places', and the diary recorded the 'starting point' here, could it be that there are other mysteries in it?" ”
"I also think there's something strange in this", Xiaopang said: "I found that Zhang Ziheng's kid was sneaky, and seemed to deliberately avoid the soldier, and rarely talked to the soldier, as if they didn't know each other before, but I felt that he should be very familiar with the soldier, and I don't know why he felt this way, in short, I think he deliberately pretended not to know the soldier, it was for me and Wu Lan." ”
"Are you sure?" I asked.
"I can't be sure, but it's not far from ten", Xiaopang said: "In addition to food, my biggest interest is to read novels and movies about criminal psychology, and I have a very accurate grasp of people's micro-expressions, hehe"
I said in my heart, although this Chubby and Zhang Meng have many similarities on the surface, but the biggest difference is that this Chubby is very studious, through this period of contact, I found that he is far from being as simple as the impression given by appearance, in fact, he has a wide range of miscellaneous studies and understands a lot of things.
Xiaopang continued: "It's also a little strange, on the one hand, why did Cheng Jiao and them delay their arrival? Let's just say that the North Third Ring Road is a little more blocked, but it won't be blocked until dark, on the other hand, why not arrange us to rest in Yuquan Villa, but take us to the broken dry rest house? Their boss is such a rich master, it can't be because he is afraid of spending money. ”
I said in my heart, don't look at this little fat appearance seems to be so-so, big grin, the heart is really fine, I didn't expect this, maybe it really inherited the excellent genes of Wang Fatzi.
"How did you get here?" I asked.
Chubby was about to answer, but suddenly stopped talking, staring at me with straight eyes, staring at me straight hair. "What's wrong?" I asked, but Chubby didn't speak, just moved his eyes to the side, as if to signal something to me.
I suddenly heard a "grunt, grunt" sound, but this time it must not be my stomach growling, because the sound was behind me.
Suddenly, I felt a drop of cold liquid drip down my neck, then another drop, and I realized that there must be something terrible behind me.
I didn't dare to look back, and saw that Chubby's expression was getting more and more nervous, and suddenly, Chubby shouted: "Run!" When I was a software engineer, I was the last place in the long jump at the company's sports meeting, but this time I seemed to suddenly become a kangaroo, and with the shouts of Chubby, I had jumped more than three meters diagonally, and I was amazed at my skills. Chubby also ran backwards.
I looked back, and where I was standing just now, there was a brown humanoid thing, with no facial features, like a pile of mud, more than two meters high, and muddy water was constantly dripping down its body, and as it moved, it made a "grunt, grunt" sound, and I don't know if it came from its throat, and it was walking towards me step by step.
I've seen this anywhere before, and I'm stupefied.
Suddenly, a hand grabbed me, I was taken aback, and when I saw it, it was Xiaopang, and I only heard Xiaopang say: "Why are you still stunned, come with me." After speaking, he pulled me to the coffin and ran, saying as he ran: "This thing is so fucking shivering, it must not be here to greet us, there is a secret passage ...... in the coffin", just halfway to run, I saw such a strange thing standing up behind the coffin, and then, the other two corners of the tomb, also erected two monsters, a total of four, in a semi-encircled shape approached me and Fatty, forcing me and Fat to the root of a wall.
These monsters moved slowly, but they gave people a strong sense of oppression, we were leaning against the wall, there was no way out, and as the monsters kept approaching, my heart beat and breathing faster.
I saw the little fat next to me take out a book from a small pocket on the outside of the backpack and flip through it in a hurry. "Damn, I still have time to read," I said in my heart.
"Found it", Xiaopang suddenly exclaimed excitedly: "This thing is called'mud corpse', it is a kind of 'witch dumpling', which is common in the north, and it can be torn and bitten after being caught, and it can be poisoned by the corpse when touched, and it ranks seventeenth on my uncle's zongzi list, which is quite powerful." ”
"Damn, it's not a fucking draft conference", I said, "Don't introduce it, let's see if your uncle's book is written or not, how to restrain it"
"Yes", Xiaopang said through a faint light: "There are three ways for those who take this zongzi: first, stuff the black donkey's hooves into its mouth, the rigidity disappears, the corpse poison dissipates, and it can be turned into muddy water within a few minutes, second, stab the throat with a peach wood sword with a Maoshan talisman, the effect is the same as method one, and third, if there is no above thing, flee immediately." ”
"", Xiaopang finished reading himself and said: "Isn't my uncle foolish, where to get the black donkey's hooves and the peachwood sword, what is this 'escape'?" ”
"It means 'run,'" I said.
"Damn, why is the tomb robbery manual written like the Peach Blossom Spring, and the ancient texts are dragged, but where the hell are you running away now?" Chubby scolded.
At this time, the four "mud corpses" had already approached us, making a "grunt, grunting" sound, and their claws slowly raised and stretched out towards me and Chubby. As soon as I closed my eyes, my heart said, "It's over."
Don't look at Xiaopang, he hasn't been fighting, but he is worthy of being the nephew of Wang Fatzi, and he is really not soft at the critical moment, he took the backpack and threw it at a mud corpse, and at the same time dragged my arm, an arrow step, and took me with the backpack and ran between the two mud corpses, straight to the coffin.
According to Chubby, there was a secret passage in the coffin, and he came up from there, but when we ran to the coffin to see, there was any secret passage, the coffin was empty, and the bottom of the coffin was intact, and Chubby shouted: ", evil, what's the going on?" ”
The four mud corpses were like beasts of prey and instinctively turned around and moved slowly towards us, and Chubby and I ran around the tomb, trying to find where there was an exit, but we didn't see any other exit after running around. There are four stone lamps in the four corners of the tomb, which are lit with some kind of oil, glowing with a pale green light, which is the light I saw when I woke up, under the four stone lamps, each has a small pool, a black hole, and occasionally some water sounds come from it, and the sound of water I heard when I wake up should be from these pools. There was a mud mark on the ground around each waterhole, and the four mud corpses seemed to have crawled out of these waterholes.
We are like rats trapped in a box, caught by four cats at any time, and it is not a way to run like this all the time, and gradually, Chubby and I are a little overwhelmed, and we are running slower and slower. We fell into despair.
