Reading Pavilion 『 』, the full text is free to read.
Hu Junjie walked around the black coffin with his hands behind his back, and then he walked around among the corpses, then looked at me and said, "Chen Yuan, do you believe that these corpses came up by themselves?" ”
I said, "The second master won't lie to us." ”
Hu Junjie said: "I also believe that the old man will not deliberately lie to us, but have you thought about it, maybe he is hallucinating." He said the corpse came here on its own, and what about the corpse? ”
I also found it strange that I had also looked around this coffin and did not see the body. Could it be that there is moisture in what Er Ji'er said?
I looked at Huzi, who shook his head and didn't say anything. I know that Huzi is also skeptical of Er'er's words.
It is a bit strange that a corpse can stand up and walk on its own after being smoked by the fog. Whether it is a corpse or a blood gourd, or a big dumpling, it is different from what Er Picker said, after the corpse he said stood up, he was still a little conscious, and even a little remnant of humanity, after taking a look at Er Pickup, he did not attack Er Pickup, but went directly to this fairy cave.
Whether it is a corpse, a blood gourd, or a large zongzi, they are all kinds of beings with almost no intelligence, and they are just acting instinctively. Moreover, it is extremely aggressive and has violent tendencies.
Bai Hui said, "Chen Yuan, what about the corpse? Didn't you say yes, come to this fairy cave? ”
I said, "You ask me, who do I ask?" You lost the body, why did you ask me? ”
Hu Junjie said: "Now it is meaningless to say who lost the body. The most critical issue now is to find the corpse, and it is always bad to let the corpse go into the wilderness. ”
Huzi said: "This is like a human saying. Let's go, we can go out now and get down the mountain before dark. If you don't leave, you'll probably have to spend the night here. ”
Hu Junjie smiled and said, "Go? Why go? ”
I said, "Not leaving?" I can't find any firewood here, so I'm afraid it's not safe to spend the night here. ”
Hu Junjie shone a flashlight around and said, "There is no firewood, but there is a permanent lamp here!" ”
I looked out, and sure enough, there was a copper lamp sticking out of the wall, I went over with a flashlight, and saw that there was a lamp bowl on the copper lamp, and there was oil in the bowl, and I used a match to do it, and the oil in it suddenly caught fire.
Then, everyone lit up the lights around them.
After the lights were lit, everyone turned off the flashlights, and they could immediately see the whole picture of the underground palace.
The dungeon is surrounded by natural cave walls, and there are no traces of artificial excavation, which means that the cave is naturally formed.
Due to the relatively smooth walls of the cave, it is supposed to be a natural cave formed by a volcanic eruption. The cavern is supposed to be a passage for eruption/magma.
On the four walls here, there are many carved stone statues of gods and ghosts, which are life-size and are not very conspicuous on the four walls. Sometimes you can't see these stone statues at all, but in a trance, you feel something, and if you look closely, a lifelike stone statue is attached to the stone wall, which is terrifying.
At this time, Huzi pointed to the dome with his finger, and on top of this dome, there were some stone statues, which were integrated with the dome, and the carving was a fairy in the sky, looking down on all beings on it.
Just above this black coffin, there is a carved Vermilion Bird Divine Bird, which is longing to form a disc. At first glance, you can see that this represents the sun.
I muttered, "This is a condensed world, this is the worldview of the ancients!" ”
In the center of the bottom is the large/large black coffin, which is placed on a square stone platform with five steps on all sides. There are four lampstands at the four corners of the steps, and there is oil in the lamp bowl.
The shape of the lampstand is in the shape of four imps from the underworld, kneeling on the ground, holding a bright lamp!
Underneath this stone platform is a square field, which is paved with strips of stone. There were dozens of bodies kneeling on the grounds, separated by a long time.
I walked around the coffin again to make sure there was no body that Huzi and I had carried out. After that, I walked up to Huzi and whispered, "Huzi, is your second father fooling us?" ”
Huzi said: "It's possible, my second father didn't dare to come up, maybe he was afraid that we would demolish him." ”
I said, "Let's not guess what his old man thinks, if we spend the night here tonight, I'm afraid it won't be too peaceful!" There's nothing to burn here, if only a fire could be lit. ”
Huzi said, "Isn't this oil lamp good?" ”
I exhaled and looked at the oil lamps around me. The light emitted by these lamps is orange and blue inside, and it is said in "Eyes into the Earth" that this is a yin fire. It is likely that this oil is a refined oil mixed with corpse oil.
I said: "Shen Kuo mentioned in "Mengxi Writings" that it is very bad to use oil for lighting, the smoke is too big, and everything in the house is blackened. Later, people made stone candles from oil. The lighting is better than that of a candle and it burns for a long time, but the smoke is still very large. Today, the oil smoke here is much smaller. It should have been artificially refined. Looking at the color of this light, most of it is added with corpse oil, this kind of fire not only can not ward off evil spirits, but also attract evil spirits! ”
Huzi said, "General Hu, do you hear that?" I think we'd better go down the mountain, and we'll come back tomorrow with firewood on our backs. ”
General Hu's people have already lit the four lamps on the stone platform, and the four little ghosts are holding the four lamps and facing the huge/large black coffin, giving people a strong sense of ceremony.
General Hu said, "Huzi, are you afraid? Do you still believe in your second father's theory of ghosts and gods? ”
Huzi did not answer General Hu's words, but whispered to me: "Lao Chen, should we go down?" I had a very bad premonition. ”
In fact, I also have a very bad premonition, but I also understand that General Hu will not let us go. He couldn't have taken us out of his sight at this time. He is wary of us, after all, we are not people on the same road.
Bai Hui snorted and said, "What is there to be afraid of, it seems that you were frightened by the words of that bad old man!" ”
Grandpa Bai smiled and said, "It's going to be fine, there are so many of us." Now you two go down the mountain, it is estimated that it will be dark before you get to the bottom of the mountain, and if it is foggy, you will be touched by the monster if you don't do it well in the fog. You also saw that big hand, I'm afraid it's not black blind, right? ”
I said, "That's not black blindness." The black blind son does not have a hand of that shape, it is clearly a human hand. ”
Hu Junjie walked to the front of the coffin at this time, as soon as he reached out and grabbed the edge of the coffin, he pulled himself up with a force, the three-meter-high coffin, he actually climbed up in a few clicks, obviously, he still has some kung fu.
He reached the top of the coffin, and stood on it as if he were the king of the world.
I looked at the whiteness around me at this time, and the adoring eyes were already filled with tears.
Hu Junjie said: "This coffin has nine nails on the left and nine nails on the right, five nails in the front and five nails in the back. This is a set of coffins. ”
I said, "There are coffins and coffins, and the people in here have a very high status." ”
"There is a gossip diagram on the lid of this coffin, and there is a Taiji Pisces diagram, indicating that he is a Taoist heir." Hu Junjie said, "In this, the eight achievements are the alchemist." I'm curious, where is his alchemy room? ”
I said, "It's possible that it's in the Iron Tile Oolong Temple." ”
Hu Junjie shook his head and said: "Impossible, it should be here, there is definitely a secret room, but we haven't found it yet." ”
As he spoke, he looked around and glanced around.
The people below began to grope around, but never found the location of the secret room.
Hu Junjie said loudly: "Don't look for it, let's open the coffin first." The nails in this coffin are all seven-inch copper nails, all of which are barbed. When you go in, it goes well, but when you come out, the barbs will hang on the coffin board, and the more you pull, the more you have to open, and the more you pull, the tighter it becomes. This is also the wisdom of the ancients! ”
Bai Hui said, "Junjie, what can I do then?" ”
Hu Junjie said: "Don't worry, I have an agreement with the dragon that if you encounter difficulties, you can send a signal flare." The Earth Dragon will let the Dragon Four Seas come to our aid. This kind of thing, Captain Jin is the best at it. ”
Hu Junjie's body squatted at this time, and he slid down directly from it, and after landing, his body popped out like a spring, and he rolled on the ground and stood up very chic.
As soon as he stretched out his hand, Bai Hui took out the flare gun from his satchel and handed it to Hu Junjie.
Hu Junjie held the flare gun in his hand, he looked at me and said, "I'll go back when I go!" ”
