Chapter 22 "Bronze Armored Corpse"
At that moment, the fat man and I jumped down almost all at once, and suddenly a strong sense of weightlessness instantly enveloped me, but it was only two or three seconds, and my feet fell to the ground.
After I landed, I saw that this was indeed a passage, and it was dark and there was no end in sight, I was a little stunned, and at this moment the fat man urged me: "Why don't you run quickly!"
The fat man reminded me before I reacted, and when I looked up, I saw that the fat man was running inside with Yun Zhongzi on his back, as for Tang Jing, who had long since disappeared, I guess I should have run in to open the way when I was stunned, and I didn't dare to think about it at the moment and followed directly.
At this time, in the main burial chamber, the fighting was getting more and more intense, and the soil on the surface of the cave wall was only falling, so scared that I prayed that the passage would not collapse again, otherwise we would only be buried alive.
Fortunately, we only had a thrill along the way, but then again, we have nowhere to verify who dug out this passage, and we don't know where it will lead in the end, so we are cautious when we walk together, for fear that something will suddenly appear in front of us that will kill people.
In fact, it is not without precedent that this kind of secret passage will appear in the ancient tomb, if my guess is right, this secret passage, nine times out of ten, was secretly dug up by the craftsman who repaired the tomb, for no other reason.
Generally, after the completion of such a large tomb, in order to keep the location of the tomb from being exposed, the family of the tomb owner will gather the craftsmen who participated in the construction and kill them on the day of the burial of the tomb owner, or lock them alive for the tomb owner to be buried.
However, some craftsmen had already anticipated their fate, so they would unite and secretly leave such a way out when building the tomb.
If my guess is correct, then this passage is very likely to lead to the outside world, forget it, no matter what, at the moment we only have this road to go, and in the end, what awaits us is life or death, everything will be known when it arrives.
As for the designation to return the original way, it is not possible, Zhang Yuntian has actually made up his mind to kill us, then he will be in the end, I estimate that after he gets out of the thief hole, the rope will be cut together, thus completely cutting off our retreat, this is an indisputable fact, if we can get out alive, then his fate can be imagined, and he will not die and will take off a layer of skin.
But Yun Zhongzi is miserable, in fact, it is not to blame the old man for not being able to do it, at most it is unlucky, the most serious injury is the violent impact with the sarcophagus, fuck I only found out later, it was a direct collision with the sarcophagus with his head! Who can stand this?
Just now I just glanced at it, and my heart was sudden, and my head was not unexpected, you were already bleeding all over your face, and your breathing was a lot weaker, but fortunately, Tang Jing rescued and treated the wound in time, and in the end, the old man did not die of excessive blood loss, if you want to further treatment, it is not a place now, at least we need to find a relatively safe place to make plans.
Along the way, we each thought about our own thoughts, and before we knew it, we had walked out of the passage for thousands of meters, and later, in order to save our few electric energy, Tang Jing finally turned off the flashlight and walked in the dark.
Maybe time doesn't matter to us anymore because there's no day or night in this place, but I took my phone out of my backpack and turned it on.
At this time, it was already about one o'clock in the morning of the next day, that is to say, we stayed in Yang Guozhong's tomb for more than ten hours.
No matter how much I complain in my heart, but the road still has to go, at the moment and the fat man simply take turns carrying Yun Zhongzi on his back, although I myself admit that my physical strength is not comparable to the fat man, but I can't come alone!
If I tire him down again, it's over, my small physique can't bear it, and we are fat people who are experts in touching gold and pouring down, and I may not be able to use it later, so I can only grit my teeth and persevere.
In the end, even we didn't know how far we had traveled along the passage, but I estimated that it was at least ten miles, and we finally walked out of the passage at four o'clock in the morning.
At this time, the fat man and I looked at each other, and they both saw the joy in each other's eyes, but when we turned on the flashlight and looked around, we were stunned when we saw the surrounding scene, this is actually an underground cave, not only me, but even the fat man They were dumbfounded, I not only cursed in my heart, what the fuck meant!
At that moment, the fat man said: "What the hell are we going to, how can there be a cave!"
Me: "Who do you ask me, who do I ask?" Okay, don't complain, do you have this kung fu or hurry up and sum it up, which way do we go on these two sides?"
After listening to my words, the fat man was speechless, his eyes were round, and he didn't let out a fart for a long time!
It's okay now, we are all in trouble, and there is no way to do it in a hurry, so Tang Jing suddenly said, "Go to the right!"
I looked at Tang Jing's side when she opened her mouth, and I didn't know when Tang Jing ran to the right of the exit of the passage, squatting on the ground less than five meters away, as if she was staring at something, and at the same time I vaguely saw that the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, I looked at it again with some uncertainty, and then I completely understood that she was actually laughing.
That's right, she was really laughing, this crazy! I actually laughed at this time, I cursed in my heart.
I simply leaned over and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Yes"
Tang Jing said lightly, then stood up and said to me, "You better see for yourself!"
It is not practical for her to say that I have already squatted down and looked at it, and with the light of the flashlight, I finally understood what Tang Jing was studying just now.
Soot, that's right, soot!
When I got closer and smelled it, I suddenly began to feel a little irrepressibly excited, for no other reason, I was too familiar with it.
Because this is the kind of tobacco that my grandfather often smokes, my grandfather has no hobbies in his life, and the wine is basically not sticky, first of all, drinking alcohol is not good for the body when he is older, and he is not particular about eating, just eat delicious.
But the only thing I can't let go of is dry tobacco, in my grandfather's words, it's a puff of smoke after dinner! Anyway, I can't understand the thoughts of old smokers like them, so we know it's time to go that way.
Just when I was thinking about these things, Tang Jing was already stitching up Yun Zhongzi's wounds, and the fat man was also dealing with his own wounds, he was bitten by Yang Guozhong's corpse in order to save me, but fortunately, the treatment was timely, the corpse poison of the wound only flowed into the blood of the arm and did not enter the body, so it was very easy to pull it out, use glutinous rice to suck out the corpse poison, and then use medical alcohol, and it will be fine to bandage it after disinfection.
The air in this cave is circulating, so it is relatively fresh, so we can go out as long as we follow the cave, so we briefly discussed it again, and the final result was to listen to Tang Jing's opinion and go to the right.
Then we rested in place and got up, during which the unconscious Yun Zhongzi also woke up, and the fat man's mouth quickly told him what happened after he fell into a coma, but when the fat man finished speaking, Yun Zhongzi was just, he sighed and didn't say anything.
Just when we were still angry about Zhang Yuntiankeng, there was movement in the passage, and there was a faint sound of footsteps, and then a person slowly walked out of the passage.
It's Penghui!
I rushed up and grabbed him with a lunge, and asked with concern, "How are you alright?"
Peng Hui just smiled weakly, then waved his hand and said, "It's okay, this is a magic trick, the drawbacks after it are cast, it's okay to take a rest." ”
I know that Peng Hui is not lying, because when I was fighting the fox demon in Dingshuigou, I was taken on by the Blood Tiger Ghost King by chance, and after the battle was over, I was even more unbearable and paralyzed, if it wasn't for Jiang Yuan carrying me down the mountain, my buddy would have died on the mountain to feed the wolves.
Our team can be regarded as seriously damaged, the most powerful three in it ran and injured two, it really responded to that sentence, people are unlucky to drink cold water and stuff their teeth!
So we finally decided to wait for Penghui to get a little better before leaving, we gathered the equipment together, and after the inspection, we were all dumbfounded and asked for our own lives, we didn't have much food left, because we were in a hurry when we ran from Yang Guozhong's tomb, so some of the backpacks used to put food fell inside.
Then the problem also comes, now it is conservatively estimated that we will run out of food in two days at most, there is a way that people are iron and rice is steel, if we don't want to go out before the food is broken, waiting for us is really left with a dead end.
However, there is no need to worry about the water, because there is usually an underground river in the underground cave, so we can find the water source along the cave all the way.
At that moment, I asked Peng Hui: "What is this Yang Guozhong's corpse become, why is it so powerful?"
As soon as I said this, almost everyone looked at Peng Hui, Peng Hui did not hurry to speak, but fell into two long contemplations, and after almost ten minutes, he slowly said three words: "Bronze armor corpse!"
Penghui doesn't say it, but he has already said that he is scared to death!
Damn the bronze armored corpse, this thing is very rare, because this thing is not naturally formed but raised by people, coincidentally, this kind of walking corpse is some, the Taoist disciples with improper mental skills are raised alive, the bronze armored corpse is already considered to be a relatively high level in the training corpse, and this thing is invulnerable to the body as hard as copper and iron, which is extremely difficult to deal with.
I had a question in my mind about who had enough to make such a monster, but none of this was our business, and there were still the most important things waiting for us to do.
At the moment, we each grabbed a rest, and by the time we had recovered our strength, it had been several hours, and finally the fat man woke me up, and we simply packed up and set off as scheduled.
We walked about two or three kilometers away, and slowly we found that this cave actually extended downward, and the further we went, the more humid the air became.
But the road was quite calm, there were no moths, when we went deeper and about the same, five or six kilometers later, the cave disappeared, a diameter of two or three meters of waterhole, appeared in front of our eyes.
We turned on the flashlights one after another, and by the light of the flashlights, I could see the scene inside, the water is not deep, and it will not exceed five meters at most, which is not important, and the most uncertain thing for us is that there is a horizontal passage near the bottom of the water.
Fat man: "Fuck, I said that our luck is too bad, I just got injured in Yang Guozhong's tomb and didn't wait for Lisuo, and I want to go into the water again, I want to play the rhythm of Lao Tzu!"
Tang Jing: "Okay, fat man, don't talk nonsense, you are an expert in this area, tell me your opinion." ”
The fat man smiled and said, "What else can we do? Of course, we will go into the water! In my opinion, let's find someone to go down and explore the way first, and then make plans after finding out the situation!"
Not to mention that the fat man can go back, but he finally got to the point, and I immediately asked, "Then who is going to explore the way?"
As soon as I said this, the eyes of everyone present looked at me, and I didn't react for a while, and I was directly looked at.
The fat man grinned at this time, grabbed my shoulder and said, "Hehe, brother, take a look, can you help you go down and explore the way!"
Me: "Let me go?"
Fat Man: "That's right, it's you!"
I then understood why they were all staring at me, but my first reaction at the moment was to refuse, but when I thought about it, I took back the words that came to my mouth, and after thinking about it, I understood, and now it seems that in our team, there are only two people who are most suitable to go into the water, one is me and the other is Tang Jing.
The condition of the two of us is a little better than that of the fat people, although I also have injuries on my body!, but at least it is almost better, not to mention that we are still a big man, and we can't let Tang Jing do everything, a woman rushes to the front, so it is my turn to do something for everyone.
Thinking of this, I let out a long breath and said, "Okay!"
I began to take off my clothes, because Tang Jing is a woman turned around in order to avoid it, there is no way I have to take off all the thermal underwear inside, because I want to go into the water, so I can't wear anything about this warmth, otherwise it will be very inconvenient to move in the water when the cotton clothes are wet, not to mention that I have to wear it afterwards, and when I was almost cleaned up, I went directly to the water's edge, gritted my teeth and jumped in directly.
It's so fucking cold!
This is indescribable, it feels like someone is holding a needle and keeps pricking the skin of the whole body, and at this time my body began to be uncontrollable, trembling slightly!
Although this water is cold and biting, but all of it, the groundwater in the Qinling Mountains is very clear and delicious, just a few sips I drank just now, than fucking every day non-stop advertising, a well-known brand of bottled water is delicious, no way! This is called pure natural minerals.
I didn't rush to dive after adapting to the temperature of the water in the water, because the difference between the body temperature of the person and the temperature of the water is too great, and if I don't adapt to it, I will dive rashly, and then my arms and legs will cramp, which means that it is possible for a person to accidentally lose his life in it.
I was about a minute or two in the water, and after I didn't notice anything abnormal, I simply tilted my head and took a big breath of air before sinking.
