Chapter 20: The Gatekeeper
But this snake still really shocked me, and they all said that there are spirits in the deep mountains and old forests, and this snake may not be the largest in the world, but it is definitely the largest I have ever seen.
Stepping over the snake bone, we continued on our way.
After walking quietly in the dark ravine, I suddenly saw something faintly on the trunk of a large tree on the hillside on the left-hand side.
I quickly stopped Ah Jin and took a picture with my phone.
When I took a few steps closer, I was shocked to find that it was actually a straw man of some age, who had been nailed to the trunk of a tree by seven rusty five-inch nails.
"Seven doors of water leakage, enough poison."
I turned around and asked Ah Jin, "Is there a person in the village who is paralyzed in bed all the year round and can only eat, drink, and talk, looking at this yin body, that person should be over thirty years old." ”
Ah Jin didn't think about it and said, "The third aunt at the entrance of the village." ”
"What the hell is going on in this village, it seems that someone has specifically targeted it."
I took out the ghost and patted the neck and gently cut the epidermis on the outside of the artery, covered the straw man with my spell hand, and pointed the yang mouth (artery scratch) at it, and cast a disguising pot curse.
Blood flowed down my arm to my elbow, drop by drop, and with each drop of blood, the seven five-inch nails that had dug deep into the trunk pulled out.
A few minutes later, the five-inch nail hit the ground, and I took the straw man and scattered it into a handful of dead grass.
"Well, it's one if you can help one."
After speaking, I suddenly remembered what I had experienced these days, and I couldn't help but smile bitterly and laugh at myself, "I learned obviously curses, but I ended up thinking about how to save people all day long, which is really ironic." ”
I picked up the five-inch nail and put it in my pocket, and was just about to walk forward, Ah Jin suddenly made a silent gesture to me, and her usual facial paralysis expression turned nervous!
"What's wrong?" I asked her in a whisper.
Ah Jinyi stretched out his hand and carried me to her side like a chicken, and said softly, "Big snake." ”
"Orochi? Just that big snake? ”
Immediately, I thought of a huge colorful python staring at me with its head held high, and I immediately felt numb and uncomfortable.
Ah Jin held the firewood knife and pointed ahead, "It's bigger than a dead snake." ”
Bigger than a dead snake?!
Right now!
In the ravine not far ahead, a pitch-black snake head as big as a truck suddenly rose up!
"I'm grass! So big! "I pulled Ah Jin and wanted to run, but I didn't pull her.
Ah Jin was a little sweaty on his forehead, and said softly: "Locked." ”
I calmed down and looked over, and the big man with the big snake's mouth open was constantly trying to spit out the letter, and the reason why I used the word "try" was because I found that its tongue was broken.
And at the place of the two eyes of the serpent, there are two wooden stakes with strange lines drawn.
Not only that, but the snake's skull was also fastened with an iron ring attached to it with a huge iron chain, and the other end of the chain was attached to the ground.
The serpent raised its head to find our position, and after a moment to no avail, it slowly sank its head into a large pit in the ground that matched its head, and there was no trace of it at all.
I was scared, and I wondered what it would be like if I had just accidentally walked over and stepped on its head.
After thinking about it, I asked Ah Jin, "Do you encounter this snake every time you go to the Funeral Gu Hall?" ”
Ah Jin put away the firewood knife, "Ah Jin has only seen a big snake look at people once. ”
"Who is it?" I'm curious.
"Man."
I have to say that Ah Jin's answer is reasonable, well-founded and reasonable, and I really can't find anything wrong with it except that I choked enough.
"I mean the identity of that person."
Ah Jin turned his head to look at me, and suddenly leaned over and sniffed my nose, "People like you." ”
This "same", if it does not refer to gender, it must be an identity occupation.
I'm afraid that person like me is also an evil man.
Thinking about it this way, it is easy to say that the purpose of this big snake guarding here is to prevent those who have cursed blood from approaching, and it seems that we should not be far from the burial hall.
"Ah Jin, has it never looked up at you?"
"Ah Jin has stepped on it many times."
After saying that, Ah Jin took the lead to climb up the hillside, and with this big snake guarding the road ahead, we had to climb out of the human head ditch to bypass this section and then come back, the terrible black head, I really have no interest in visiting its mouth.
In fact, what I am more curious about is where the body of this big snake is, and what it usually eats.
Unexpectedly, Ah Jin answered my question - the body is underground, it should eat you.
Bypassing the snake's head for more than ten meters, Ah Jin wanted to go down, I was afraid that these ten meters would be just a matter of turning the head of the big snake, but Ah Jin told me that the snake's head was not locked, and it couldn't be twisted back.
After going down to Rentougou again, Ah Jin led me to the edge of a large rock.
I just wanted to ask, Ah Jin went directly over and reached out and grabbed the stone the size of half a car, and then blushed and began to exert force.
In this case, I couldn't stand still, so I helped her move together.
Ah Jin's strength is really great, and I can't even understand how the muscles on her small body can burst out with so much power, which is a bit against the common sense of the human body that I have learned.
Inch by inch, the large rock was removed, revealing a black hole the size of a manhole cover on the ground.
"This is the Burial Gu Hall?" I asked.
Ah Jin's stomach screamed, "I'm hungry." ”
I quickly fumbled through all the pockets of my pants and finally pulled out a piece of chocolate from my butt pocket, but it was all melted and distorted.
"Ah Jin, this is not fish, this is called chocolate, it is very sweet and delicious, it should be able to relieve a little." With that, I handed over the chocolate.
Ah Jin took it and dismantled it, and when he finished dismantling, he sent it to his mouth.
I looked at her, chirped, chewed a few times, and swallowed, and suddenly felt that this girl's eating appearance and appearance should be able to make a lot of money.
Ah Jin swallowed and washed his teeth with his tongue, and I was waiting for her evaluation.
Ah Jin said indifferently: "This is the road that Ah Jin discovered." ”
I thought Ah Jin would talk about chocolate first, but I didn't expect her mind to jump back to the Funeral Gu Hall, and I almost didn't keep up.
"Is the real entrance somewhere else?"
Ah Jin nodded, "At the bottom of the lake." ”
I thought about it, if only Ah Jin knew about this entrance, then we would definitely arrive at the Burial Gu Hall one step ahead of Qin Huai, so that I could meet her just by waiting there, and there would be a lot less risk of being ambushed.
"How deep is this, do we need rope?" I asked.
Ah Jin shook his head firmly, "Jump, more than six meters." ”
Six meters?!
I looked at Ah Jin dumbfounded, "Then I'll fall into sauce!" ”
