In the silent darkness, there was a slight cough from a man. Immediately, a flickering flame lit up.

This is a quaint copper lamp, the shape is not complicated, the upper lamp plate is concave, inside is the lamp oil and burning wick, the main part of the lower lamppost is a human servant, the hands are raised and dragged the lamp plate, there is a connecting handle between the back of the human servant and the lower lampstand, the handle is polished to a shiny, it looks like someone is often in use.

The faint light slowly illuminated the surroundings, this is a closed secret room, the upper part of the secret room is surrounded by small ventilated openings, you can see a subtle air flow driving the flame of the copper lamp to sway gently.

The lamp was placed on a stone table, and beside it was a simple stone bed, on which sat a man with a long beard and hair hanging down, and his face could be seen by the light of the fire.

The long-term life in the secret room has made this person's skin a little too white, but his ears are unusually keen, and he is listening to something with his eyes closed.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes, and the bronze lamp next to him seemed to be frightened, and the flames flickered a few times, and it looked like it was about to go out......

Immediately after, the flame suddenly rose, and the color became as bright red as blood. And at this time, the man's eyes were oozing a little blood! If someone looked closely into his eyes, they would be scared.

This man's eyes turned out to be red!

Outside the chamber, a group of men carefully drilled through a hole in the wall with torches, scattering broken bricks and dirt under their feet.

The leader whispered: "It's all good, this is a fire hole, this pot, I will support it."

The pots and holes here are all black words in the industry.

In the past, among the tomb robbers in Shanxi and other places, they liked to use "branch pot" to represent tomb robbers. In the early years, people went out to make a living, and cooking was a temporary triangular table, put the pot on, and then make a fire to cook, so it was called "branch pot".

Tomb robbers borrowed the word to denote a gang of tomb robbers. If a large tomb is found in a place where there are too few people to eat, the tomb robbers will form gangs and cooperate. Correspondingly, if "the pot can't be supported", it is a failure to rob the tomb and return empty-handed, which is also called "empty".

The fire cave here refers to the well-preserved and unstolen ancient wooden coffin tomb, which is named because the tomb will spew out unknown combustible gas.

The corresponding water caves are ancient tombs that are poorly sealed, full of water, or have been destroyed by theft and excavation. The preservation of the burial goods in the water cave is poor, and the quality of the stolen antiquities is generally not very good.

This group of people should be a small gang of bandits, led by a middle-aged man, with a long braid and a horse coat, a long knife pinned to his waist, one eye covered with a black cloth, and a long scar slanted down from his forehead, probably blind, with a fierce look between his eyebrows.

A few people walked cautiously in the tomb, and a thin man with buck teeth raised a torch to shine on the tomb wall on the side, and said in a trembling voice: "Second master, this mural is so tight that I look a little uncomfortable." ”

"Something that doesn't make a living, how many murals can eat you?"

Another tall and thin man scolded angrily. It seems that the thin and tall man also has some status and identity in this group.

The second master ignored these two people, raised the lamp in his hand and illuminated the tomb road in front of him. This kind of lamp, than the ordinary torch shines farther, the shape looks like an ordinary lantern, the difference is that its lamp mouth is open on the side wall in front, the inside of the lantern, equipped with several copper mirrors, the use of light reflection on the mirror surface, so that the light can be concentrated, a bit similar to the current flashlight.

Since ancient times, bronze mirrors have been used to ward off evil spirits, and it is said that this lamp can illuminate the ghosts of the dead.

At that time, there were no flashlights, and such lamps became a common lighting tool for tomb robbers.

"Look at the foot of the point, such a long tomb road, don't make sure there are any dark guys, the tricks are all lit up for the master, I finally ran into a fire hole, don't TM explain here"

"Master, this mural is really panicked!"

After walking for less than a quarter of an hour, the bucktooth trembled again.

The tall and thin man turned around and kicked him in the ass,

"Look at your useless appearance, you coward!"

The second master looked up and looked around, the walls on both sides, including the top of the tomb, were full of murals, and the murals were all kinds of animals, as well as many people wearing strange costumes.

What is puzzling is that the eyes of people and animals are painted red, and they walk forward as if they have lost their souls.

"These things are specially painted on the wall by those princes and princes to scare people, there is nothing to be afraid of."

The darkness of the corridor was as silent as death, and a faint trace of green smoke filled the air, and under the damp darkness peculiar to the ancient tomb, the group in the distance did not notice it at all.

After a long time, they stopped.

"No, why is this tomb so long?" The second master turned around and shouted, "Ah Wu, how long have you been gone?" ”

A deep voice came from behind the crowd:

"Second master, it's almost two hours."

The man named Ah Wu is a very burly man, and the muscles of his body are very strong, if ordinary people are hammered by him, it is estimated that the bones will be broken three or five times.

The person who was called the second master felt a little bad in his heart, and was about to speak, but he heard a voice trembling and said:

"Lord... Grandpa··· Lord··· Wall··· Mural!"

The tall and thin man on the side raised his hand and slapped the buckteeth with two big mouths,

"Mural mural, wall you M size!"

The second master raised the lantern and shone on the murals around him, and his scalp couldn't help but tingle, and a cool breath spread all over his body along his backbone.

Gone are the old people and animals, replaced by the broken limbs and bodies of people and animals!

The scattered corpses twisted and twisted, and streams of blood spread from the pile of corpses. The heads with twisted faces were opening their bloody mouths, and the two ghost eyes were staring at everyone present.

The bright red, shining directly into the soul of the person under the light of the torch, made him feel a fear from the bottom of his heart, that is, the fear of facing death!

The people behind him also noticed the change in the mural, and the team instantly became a little flustered.

This second master is not an ordinary person, he quickly calmed down and pulled out a long knife from his waist, "Don't panic, Ah Wu, see if there are enough people!" ”

Ah Wu looked around left and right, "Second master, eight people." ”

"Eight people!" The second master was shocked, he came out this time and brought nine people, two of them stayed outside to guard the entrance of the cave, and only seven came down, how could there be eight people?

The two outside received their own orders, and they would never follow, even if there was an emergency, they would use the secret method to notify themselves, so ......

Where did this eighth man come from!

They had been walking under the tomb for almost two hours, when did this man start following them?

Thinking of this, a cold sweat broke out on the second master's forehead......

In thought, he turned to look at the back of the crowd, where a black figure was standing behind him.

It's the eighth man!

"Damn, it doesn't matter if you are a human or a ghost, if you want to cut off Lao Tzu, ask Lao Tzu about the knife in his hand first!"

This second master is really a ruthless stubble, and he instantly became murderous, and glanced at the tall and thin man behind him.

The tall and thin man comprehended, raised his hand and shot three short darts at the figure behind him with a whoosh.

The dart was quenched with poison, and only three pops were heard, and the person behind was instantly hit and fell to the ground with a muffled snort.

Watching the people behind him fall, the second master had an ominous premonition in his heart for no reason, everything seemed to be a little too simple!

He took the tall, thin torch and walked cautiously towards the eighth.

I saw the man lying on the ground with his head down, motionless. Looking at the clothes and body shape, I can't help but shout bad in my heart!

"Quick, help!"

After speaking, he hurriedly turned up the people on the ground.

At this time, the man's face was dark, trembling all over, his blood-red eyes were staring deadly, and his mouth was foaming at the mouth.

The person was brought down by the second master. The tomb road was too dark, and only the second master in the team was holding a walking lamp in front of him, and the followers behind were all lighting torches.

The torch illuminated the limited range, and the man followed at the end of the line, presumably frightened by the change in the mural, and trembling to slip back, but died under the poison dart.

When a companion dies, fear spreads in everyone's heart, not because of the dead person, but because of the extra person.

Everyone took a few steps back, looked around nervously, and soon realized that something was wrong......

There are only six of them now!

The hearts of everyone present were filled with uneasiness, a layer of white sweat appeared on their foreheads and palms, and no one moved, just looked at everyone around them vigilantly.

After a while, the second master spoke: "Ah Wu, do you remember what I said to you when I first met you in the back mountain?" “

"Second master, the first time I saw you, I was just a little guy who asked for food at the dock." The big man named Ah Wu replied.

The second master pressed the knife in his hand and stared at the others with fierce eyes.

Everyone instantly understood what the second master meant, and after some confirmation, they found that they were all their own people, and the extra person disappeared like this!

"Damn, this place is a bit evil...... Looking at the dead corpses on the ground, the second master spat fiercely,

"I finally came across a fire hole, it's impossible to just quit like this, that person killed our brother, and we must not spare it!"

A person trembled and said, "Master, will you meet a ghost......

"Hmph, people block and kill, ghosts come to kill ghosts! Nothing to be afraid of! Ah Wu clenched his fists and said.

The tall thin man stretched out his hand and closed his eyes for the man on the ground, and sighed deeply: "Alas, I'm sorry brother, that king and eight ghost cubs, I will avenge you by breaking his body into ten thousand pieces!" ”

The light of the lantern could not illuminate the depths of the tomb, and when you looked at it from a distance, the end of the tomb was like a dark abyss, bottomless.

The remaining six people walked in the tomb tunnel, and at this time, they were more cautious than ever, always on guard against the eighth person who had disappeared.

The murals around are still the kind of bloody pictures of chilling corpses entangled, and you can smell a smell of blood when you look at it.

After a long period of intense mental concentration, everyone seemed a little tired, and what was even more terrifying was that they found that they would never be able to walk out of this graveyard.

Counting the beginning, they have been walking non-stop for three hours! When the familiar mark on the tomb wall reappeared, they finally realized that they were trapped in the tomb.

"Second master, what should I do!" Ah Wu grabbed the torch in his hand.

The second master didn't speak, he could feel the change in everyone.

The extreme tension of the long period, combined with the pressure of the enclosed space of the cemetery, and the fear of death, had brought their emotions to the verge of collapse.

"You go to die!"

Suddenly, one of them went crazy and threw down one of his partners next to him, holding each other's necks with both hands.

It was a man with a stubble on his face, but his voice was as sharp and piercing as a mad woman.

His expression became extremely hideous, and his whole face became distorted.

"I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you, and none of you want to leave! No one wants to leave! ”

He shouted like a madman, his hands clutching the neck of the man below him, and the man below him resisted desperately.

Faced with the sudden scene, everyone was taken aback, and hurriedly went up to hold down the crazy companion,

I don't know where he got so much strength, he actually broke free from the block, turned around and rushed towards the second master, and pinched the second master's neck with both hands.

Seeing this, the second master dodged sideways, and reflexively swept towards the calf of the scumbag, and the scumbag man directly fell into a dog and ate, and several teeth were broken.

The man didn't care about the pain, howled and got up and pounced on the second master, blood flowed down his mouth, and the expression on his face was crazy and hideous.

"I'm going to kill you! Kill you! ”

His voice has completely changed, and everyone present is shocked, could it be that this person was possessed by the female ghost in the tomb?

Seeing that the man rushed straight towards him, the second master stepped forward with his right foot on the side of the tomb wall, and then kicked the wall with his left foot, taking advantage of the momentum in the air to rotate his legs and clamp the neck of the scumbag man, and put him to the ground with a backward flip at the waist, grabbed one of his arms with both hands, and clamped the man's neck with his legs to control it, and the other three people also came up to help when they saw the situation, holding down his legs and the other arm with all hands and feet.

The scumbag struggled hard, but he was pressed to the ground and couldn't move.

At this time, the person who had been pinched by him before suddenly rushed over, stretched out his hand and pulled out the long knife on the second master's waist and stabbed it into the stomach of the scumbag, the white knife went in and the red knife came out, and the intestines turned out!

"Assert ......"

Under the shocked gaze of everyone, the man with the knife let out a sinister ghostly laugh, raised the knife and slashed it at his neck, and immediately blood splattered everywhere, gushing like a pillar.

The head of a hideous woman on the mural next to it was instantly dyed blood red, and the blood slowly flowed down the wall, falling to the long knife on the ground drop by drop, splashing bewitching blood flowers. And the woman's head in the mural, under the light of the torches, a pair of bloody eyes are staring at everyone gloomily.

Everything happened so suddenly, and in less than a second, everyone got goosebumps. The bucktooth was scared to pee his pants on the spot, his legs and stomach were weak, and he sat on the ground. His eyes widened and he opened his mouth to say something, but he couldn't say a word.

"Live...... Alive...... Alive!! ”

Bucktooth pointed to the mural on the wall with one hand, his mouth was one by one, his face was suffocated, his whole body trembled violently due to fear, his body couldn't help moving back, after all, it was a hysterical scream, and the whole person rushed out towards the depths of the tomb.

As soon as the buckteeth rushed out more than ten meters, they heard a loud bang, and the entire corridor began to tremble violently.

At this time, the lantern was still on the ground, and the light shone straight on the tomb in front of it.

The bucktooth didn't know what mechanism he stepped on, so he saw that the boulder at the top of the tomb suddenly fell in its entirety, and the two masters and the three of them watched as the bucktooth was smashed into a meat pie in an instant, and the minced meat mixed with blood splashed everywhere like a persimmon that had been trampled on, and the road in front of the tomb was completely blocked.

Before they could react, there was another loud bang, accompanied by a violent tremor, and the tomb behind them was blocked by the falling boulders.

Seeing this, the hearts of the three of them were cold......

It's over, I'm afraid I'm going to plant it here today!!

At this moment, the only light on the ground flickered a few times, and with a bang, it went out.

The three of them groped their way to stand back to back, and in the dark and dead tomb, only the heavy gasps of the three were left......
