Chapter 176: The Ghost Cave Tomb
There are a lot of things, and the update still comes very late. There's only one chapter left today, and I'll make it back tomorrow. Hey, I've been working too much overtime these days, forgive me.
Ghost cave tomb, this name Lu Ming and Huang Ling'er are not unfamiliar.
It is better to call it a cave of the dead, or a dead city. Because according to the legend and the records on the lone book, it seems to be a huge underground ancient city made of nature, with countless buried buildings inside, and dead people's corpses and white bones everywhere.
Judging from the things that adventurers and tomb robbers got out of it, the dead inside are people from the Ming and Qing dynasties thousands of years ago, and there are also traces of the modern Republic of China, which is very messy and weird.
From the accumulation of bones, it looks like a pit burial place for a massacre during the war, that is, the so-called mass grave, but there are also a few precious burial goods inside, with traces of the construction of the mausoleum organ.
There are countless dead people in the ghost cave tomb, which is eerie and terrifying, as if there will be a miserable and desolate cry from time to time in every corner of the ghost cave, like a ghost crying wolf, which is creepy, so there is such a name as the ghost cave tomb.
There have always been people exploring the ghost cave tombs, but few people know the specific location, and its name is scary, so it is very famous, Lu Ming and Huang Ling'er have also seen it, so when they heard Zuo Musen mention this name, it seemed that when they were in this vast and boundless barren forest, their hearts moved slightly.
Everyone would probably show a look of surprise and curiosity when they heard the news of the Dragon Tomb and the Ghost Cave Tomb, and Lu Ming and Huang Ling'er did not deliberately hide it. looked at Zuo Musen. Lu Mingqi said: "Could it be that Brother Zuo Musen know where the ghost cave tomb is?" To tell the truth, the two of us came here to try our luck when we heard the news of the Dragon Tomb, but the opportunity to make a fortune is the same everywhere. ”
Seeing that Zuo Musen's team was not very strong, Lu Ming said with a sneering look on his face: "I heard that although the ghost cave tomb is lucky, if you are bold, you may be able to touch something valuable from it and make a small fortune, but it is also full of dangers inside, and the number of people is small, I'm afraid it is not very safe." If you can, why don't you take us with you? Since I can touch it. It's also fate. Don't worry, if you are lucky enough to touch something good, you will divide it according to the rules, and the requirements of the two of us are not high. But it's just bolder. ”
Lu Ming took the initiative to join. In fact, it was a last resort. The situation is stronger than the man. Now he and Huang Ling'er are both extremely weak, and they are at an absolute disadvantage if they have no firearms on their bodies to defend themselves.
Like Zuo Musen and his group. Experienced, definitely a decisive veteran, since he proposed the ghost cave tomb, it is obvious that there is a faint threat in it. Everyone knows that compared to the treasures, the location of the tomb will be ten thousand times more precious, and he has already pointed out that the location of the ghost cave tomb is in this barren forest, revealing such an important information, if Lu Ming is not on the road, no one can guarantee that they will suddenly kill the mouth to ensure the secret of the location of the tomb.
However, I'm afraid that even Zuo Musen doesn't know that Lu Ming and Huang Ling'er are really interested in ghost cave tombs. It is clearly recorded in the unique collection of the sect that there are two rare treasures in the ghost cave tomb, which are real things that are hard to find.
One is a thousand-year-old blood jade, it is said that it only exists in the terrifying place where the blood of the bones gathers, in the long period of thousands of years, the spirit jade absorbs the blood, and gradually has spirituality, for the cultivation of ancient martial arts, it has an incomparably huge help, and can greatly improve the skill.
The other is a glass night pearl, which is said to be a treasure used by Cixi, which can not only maintain the appearance and maintain health, but also wear it on the body for a long time, which can warm the body meridians and get rid of all kinds of diseases. Moreover, just its own collection value and monetary value are enough to make countless people's hearts move.
What Lu Ming wants to get is the glazed night pearl, Huang Ling'er's meridians are seriously damaged, and it is difficult to heal with manpower, if there is the assistance of the glazed night pearl, maybe Huang Linger's injured meridians can be restored.
These two treasures are extremely rare to know, and only a first-class ancient martial arts sect like the Liuyun Sect has a complete record. Huang Ling'er's face was calm, but her heart had already become irrepressibly hot. Seeing that Lu Ming offered to join, he already knew Lu Ming's plan. I was inexplicably moved in my heart, and I couldn't help but quietly reach over and hold Lu Ming's rough big hand, and smiled softly at him.
Of course, Zuo Musen took the initiative to bring up this topic with the intention of inviting Lu Ming and the two to be together, they originally had other cooperative companions, all of whom were those who were keen on taking risks and making a fortune, and even the four of them were slowly getting together. But as soon as the other dozen or so people heard about the dragon tomb and the ghost cave tomb, they immediately retreated.
The almost legendary magic of the Dragon Tomb, everyone's heart is full of blood when they hear it, but they are not inexperienced, just with a passion for rolling up their sleeves and desperate to do it. On the contrary, because they have touched a lot of tombs and had a lot of life and death experience, their courage has become smaller.
Or it can't be said that he has become less courageous, but he has become much more rational. Treasures are never seen and obtained casually, the more evil the tomb, the more terrifying it is, and almost all of the people who go to the dragon tomb this time are strong people who can only look up to and tremble in their hearts.
Which of those strong people is not a figure with blood on his hands? Grab food from them, and weigh how many catties you have! Money certainly makes people's hearts hot, but life is more important, isn't it?
Although the ghost cave tomb is far less magical than the dragon tomb, it is also a place of death, although it is not clear how many dangerous and terrifying traps there are, but just those countless rotting corpses and white bones are enough to deter many people.
Some of Zuo Musen's other companions found their own reasons, withdrew one after another, and went to some smaller mausoleums to make some small fortunes, and just get something out of the day, so it was enough to live without being so tight.
Zuo Musen saw that Lu Ming and the two of them actually came to the Erya Jungle. You don't have to think about it to know that these two people's courage is absolutely enough. Anyway, there are more than a few items in the ghost cave tomb, and if you are lucky, you can share a little bit for one person. And Lu Ming and Huang Ling'er are only two of them, and they don't have firearms on them, so it doesn't seem to be a big threat, if something really happens, just solve the two of them ruthlessly.
Seeing that Lu Ming and the two showed enough heat and interest, Zuo Musen smiled, his sense of Lu Ming was still very good, he had a bold personality and was willing to make one more friend. However, after listening to Lu Ming's words, he was not in a hurry to express his position. Instead, he looked at the obese fat three.
Fat San's eyes seem to be a slit forever. He looked at Lu Ming's right chest without a trace and said, "Brother Yongming's injury doesn't matter?" ”
Lu Ming smiled slightly bitterly: "The power of the Vimo people's arrows is really terrifying, and the injury is indeed a bit serious, but I am afraid that this rainstorm will not stop for a while, let me rest for three more days." The rain should be clear. I didn't have any problems then. I just don't know if you can wait for three days, three fat brothers? ”
"Huh. Let's see when this rain stops. Fei San didn't immediately agree, but his attitude was obviously much looser. As Zuo Musen thought, even if Lu Ming was given three days. It is also unlikely that he will fully recover from his injuries, and there is not much of a threat.
Enthusiasm also needs to be stopped in moderation, Lu Ming was very upright and did not continue the topic, but naturally asked about the news of the Dragon Tomb. On that day, the map of the Dragon Tomb on the Ulamo Mountains had been clearly imprinted in everyone's hearts in the vision of heaven and earth in the sky, and the location was no longer a secret, but this Eya jungle was vast and complex, and it was probably not easy to find it.
He and Huang Ling'er have been hunted down and besieged involuntarily since then, and they don't know the movements of the others. Zuo Musen and his party are experienced at first glance, and the most important thing is that they are well-informed, and they should know something.
Sure enough, Zuo Musen did not disappoint Lu Ming.
They were also aware of the magical visions of heaven and earth above the Uramo Mountains that day, and from that day on, more and more people went to this Eya jungle, known as the Jungle of Death, as if they were all going in the same direction. But that direction requires crossing the swamp that is thousands of miles wide. The swamp is filled with fog and poisonous gases, and there are countless ferocious beasts, which have always had the highest mortality rate.
Zuo Musen and his party were originally going to follow those strong people and slowly pass over to see if they could enter the Dragon Tomb and pick up some cheap ones. But what made them feel extremely strange was that thousands of people who came one after another suddenly disappeared, and they couldn't meet half a figure along the way!
They had never seen the scene when the remnants of the Dragon Tomb were united, and they did not know the specific location of the Dragon Tomb, and after losing the traces of those strong people, they struggled and groped in the swamp for several days, without any gain. At this time, Fei San finally knew the location of the ghost cave tomb from a piece of broken bronze.
For those of them who venture to make a fortune, as long as there is something good, it is the same everywhere they enter. Now that they had no trace of the dragon's tomb, it was useless to wander around the foggy swamp, so they simply turned around and came to this vast and vast barren forest.
In the jungle of Eya, the climate is harsh and changeable, just in time for this endless pouring rain, it is hard and difficult to travel in the rain, it took several days to get here, tired and exhausted, cold and sleepy, I happened to pass by here tonight and saw the fire raised by Lu Ming and the two, so I came in to take shelter from the rain and rest.
********
All the people seem to have disappeared?
Lu Ming and Huang Ling'er glanced at each other, and they also felt strange.
The two of them had personally seen the remnants of the dragon tomb on the Uramo Mountains, and they knew very well that the location of the dragon tomb was not in that swamp. It's really strange that all the powerhouses disappeared there.
But it's useless to think about it now, don't look at Zuo Musen and the others seem to be able to get along harmoniously for the time being, but Lu Ming and Huang Ling'er are very clear that since they have already proposed the location of the ghost cave tomb, if they don't agree to go and see it together, I'm afraid the two of them won't be able to get out.
Everything has to wait for the body to recover and have enough self-protection ability.
For Zuo Musen and the others, there can also be no carelessness. The so-called people die for money, birds die for food, in such the most primitive wilderness, power determines everything, if Lu Ming and the others have any movement to leak the news of the ghost cave tomb, I am afraid that Zuo Musen and the others will not mind wasting two more bullets
Under the precaution of mutual understanding, the group rested in the empty cave for three days.
The rain finally stopped, the sun hung high in the sky, the scorching temperature was like the height of summer, and the weather was extremely unpredictable. After a day of sun exposure, the muddy ground has dried.
"Brother Yongming, you are really good! Damn, if I'm so badly injured like yours, I'm afraid I'll have to lie in a crazy bed in the hospital for a month or two! However, Ling'er's sister-in-law is really rare, hehe. ”
Lu Ming and his party had already set off and began to move deeper into the barren forest. At noon, when he was resting in a dense forest to escape the heat, Zuo Musen gulped a mouthful of cold water, panted roughly, and looked at Lu Ming sitting beside him in admiration.
Lu Ming's face was still extremely pale, but after three days of rest, his body had recovered some of his spirits, and he followed Zuo Musen and a few people to walk in the barren forest for a morning, although he was tired and sweaty, but finally did not drag everyone back. Such a quick recovery ability is truly amazing.
Lu Ming and Huang Ling'er each got some simple tools from Zuo Musen, and the kettle was naturally the most basic equipment. At this time, Huang Ling'er was helping Lu Ming wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, and felt distressed and gently held the kettle to let Lu Ming drink water, full of the appearance of a good woman and a good wife.
The cool water flows down the dry throat and stomach in the abdomen, taking away the heat from the body and making the whole body feel very comfortable. Lu Ming kicked a big breath, coughed a few times and said with a wry smile: "No way, people are poor and miserable, if the body is not strong, how can it be done." ”
Huang Ling'er smiled and quipped: "How about it, wooden mallet, seeing people so gentle and considerate, won't you be envious?" Who told you not to take your wife out with you! ”
After getting along for a few days, although it is still inevitable that there will be wariness between each other, Zuo Musen, who has a bold temperament, is indeed a friend who can be worth making, and talking to him is also interesting, no scruples, Huang Linger and Lu Ming are also more familiar with him.
Zuo Musen suddenly made a bitter face, touched his rough beard and sighed: "Hey, there is no such a good life as Brother Yongming!" In these years, there are many women who know how to enjoy, and it is rare for a woman who is willing to endure hardships like Ling'er's sister-in-law! I won't hide it from you, I still have a lot of women, but they are all waiting for Lao Tzu to send them money to spend, which one of them feels sorry for Lao Tzu who is working hard in those dead people's tombs. Man, it's hard! Hey, damn it, it's all tears when you talk too much! ”
Lu Ming suddenly laughed involuntarily.
Although Huang Ling'er's face was very ordinary after a simple disguise, her eyes were still charming and moving, and she couldn't help but glance at Lu Ming proudly, and said with a meaningful smile: "Xiao Mingming, did you hear what the wooden mallet said!" A good woman like me doesn't know how to cherish it, and she often thinks about other women, hmph, be careful that one day the old lady is on fire, and she is too lazy to accompany you, a poor bastard, to earn hard-earned money here! ”
Zuo Musen smiled, patted Lu Ming's shoulder, and squeezed his eyebrows.
The three of them were joking and chatting, and the quiet man who was called by Zuo Musen as four-eyed came over and said: "I met two Vimo people, damn it, I don't know what to do, it's like crazy, and when I saw us, I didn't say a word about the attack, but fortunately, we were clever and didn't get hurt." was shot by a fat three-in-one, and it was overturned! ”
Lu Ming suddenly stood up excitedly and said, "What about them?" Are there any that aren't dead? ”
