Volume 2 Southern Xinjiang Different Mounds Chapter 76 Velvet Wool
I explained, "According to legend, if a snake is treated three times by the same horse snake, it will open up its wisdom and become a demon. ”
"According to you, the horse snake is certain to die this time? And if that black snake comes back to life, it will also become a snake demon due to misfortune? Isn't that what it means? Ergou summed up what I said before.
"That's what it means." I replied.
"What's the matter?" "If that's all right," cried out, "then the snake that feeds the horses and snakes doesn't seek death every day?" That horse and snake can't be unjustly killed? ”
"Do you think they're all as smart as you are?" I sneered at the altar.
"If they're not smart, how can the black snake explain it? One came out to look for death, but he couldn't stop it! "When the altar said this, we also felt that there were indeed some problems in the middle. The black viper came back from the dead, but it didn't have amnesia, it should know how powerful we were, but why did it appear in front of us again and again? If it's for revenge, it's not like it? Which vengeful person will see that the enemy has rushed to the front of him, and he is still motionless?
"If you want me to say, in fact, all this is just Xiao Pei's speculation, and it hasn't been confirmed yet!" Ma Xiwen said aloud, "Just the two marks on the snake's body and a blind and lame lizard don't mean anything. Maybe it's just a coincidence? It is not impossible that all three snakes have grown into the same shape, and the two lizards are more crippled than the other, and the wounds are all in the left eye. Don't they all say that no book is written without coincidence, and this world is often so coincidental......" He saw that many of us were skeptical, so he continued: "Besides, even if the snake becomes a demon, it will not be as powerful as the legendary monsters, and those monsters in other people can easily cultivate for hundreds of years...... Look at that poisonous snake again, is that possible? Let's not worry too much, it's unfounded. ”
"Yes, Professor Ma is right! So many of us are afraid of it? Cheng Siyuan shouted, "I've killed it three times, and I don't care about another time." If it is really enlightened, then it should know that the farther away from us the better, and the farther away the safer. If you dare to appear in front of us again, it's really a light in the toilet - looking for death ()! ”
As soon as Ma Xiwen and Cheng Siyuan said this, everyone stopped discussing, thinking that it was just a little snake, and there was no need to make everyone nervous. As I was talking, my mind suddenly flashed the appearance of the horse snake before, remembering the fierce light that had appeared in its eyes, and now I think that it should be a hateful gaze, after all, if we kill the snake once, it is one step closer to death, can it not hate us...... If it really has emotions......
This burial chamber does not have a back door, but is connected to the tomb passage behind it. We walked along the cemetery road, and the more we walked, the more spacious it became. Gradually, something floating began to appear in the light from our flashlight. Those things were white, floating in the air, floating and heavi, like snowflakes. But we all know very well that there is no snow here.
At first, we didn't care, but there were more and more things, more and more, and there was a faint aroma in between.
Xu Yunshu caught a little white with her hand, and I leaned over with the jar to see, it was not so much snow as something like catkins. Xu Yunshu picked it up, put it under her nose and sniffed it.
"Be careful!" I kindly reminded her.
Xu Yunshu glanced at me and stretched out the white thing in front of me: "This should be just the fluff on the plant, you can also smell it, it's very fragrant!" I guess it's on the flowers. ”
"Still hairy on the flowers? What a rarity! The jar reached out and took it, sniffed and sniffed, "Hmm! There is indeed a scent, but the fragrance in the air is exactly the same. ”
"You see, all these fluffs are flying out of the tomb, a lot!" Xu Yunshu added another sentence, and it was this sentence that reminded us.
"That's right! If there was no wind, how could they float out of it? "I was happy.
"So that means there's an exit to the outside world?" Tanzi said, "I've watched a lot of movies, and they all act like this!" If there is wind, you can see the exit! ”
"Wind does not necessarily have an outlet, it may also be a vent!" I hit the jar and said.
"Even if there is no exit, with the strength of our people, we can make an exit alive!" Ma Xiwen said.
"Old Ma's words sound quite uplifting." Jar said. Ma Xiwen smiled when he heard it.
"When did you become so familiar with Professor Ma, and you were called by the old horse?" I asked the jar.
"Is this still cooked? We are a team, at least for now, the old name is Professor Ma, Professor Ma has more students, or the old Ma listens kindly. Isn't it, old horse? Jar said.
"Yes, yes." Ma Xiwen replied, but I obviously saw reluctance on his face. A dignified archaeology professor must be uncomfortable at first glance to let a young old horse and old horse bark like this. But even if he was reluctant, the altar was called like this, he couldn't say it, after all, there was nothing wrong with people.
At this time, there were more and more fluffs, and I saw them fluttering slowly in the air, and slowly falling on the ground around us. Soon a layer was laid, as if a thin layer of snow had fallen.
"How can there be so much fluff? How many flowers do you have to have? The altar said in surprise.
Indeed, there are more and more fluffs, and although there is no strong wind, they float in the air, often blocking our vision, and occasionally drifting into our eyes. As we walked forward, each step would kick up the fluff that had landed on the ground, and they would float again.
After walking a short distance, we found the birthplace of these fluffs - a sea of white flowers!
It was a place about the size of the front hall, except that the ground was not paved with ashlar, but ordinary land, presumably for the purpose of growing these white flowers. The sides of the hall were densely planted with flowers, at least a few thousand, and only a stone path in the middle of the hall was left that could only be walked side by side.
The height of these flowers is about one meter, three or four, the calyx is cylindrical, and the flower body stretches outward in a trumpet shape. Each one is in full bloom, the corolla is blooming, and it is particularly beautiful.
We scanned around with our flashlights, and everywhere we saw that the light was either white blooming flowers or fluffy fluff flying in the sky. Being here, your eyes are white and your nose is full of flowers. The scent used to smell good, but here it is a bit pungent, probably because there are too many flowers.
