There was an accident on the secret passage platform

Choose one of the three bridges of life and death

Cold, biting cold, invaded my body in the yin wind mixed with the smell of rancidity.

I couldn't help but shudder, and it was as if the last shred of heat in my body had been taken away completely.

I wrapped myself around my clothes and tried to warm myself up.

The light came from the old German flashlight in my hand. It is faint and intermittent, and the range of irradiation is less than ten meters. However, fortunately, the incantations written in green liquid on the stone wall have a strong reflective effect, although it seems to have an indescribable eerie and terrifying appearance, but, in a way, it also saves the two of us a lot of trouble.

"Brother Tianyi, this is for you!" After I had walked a few steps towards the grave, Mei suddenly stopped me and said.

"What?" I asked, looking back.

Mei didn't answer me, but threw a backpack at me. I took it and took a look, this is Zhang Chengyong's backpack, and there are actually a lot of supplies in it.

Since the previous fight consumed a lot of physical strength, I took the backpack and picked two compressed energy bars in it and threw them in my mouth, then poured two more mouthfuls of water and said, "Let's go!" We don't have much time. ”

"Hmm!" Mei nodded in response.

With that, the two of us groped our way down the tunnel.

From the entrance of the wooden coffin to the position of the altar below, the two of us walked for about fifteen minutes, and I initially estimated that the vertical distance here was at least about 50 meters.

The steps down here are in a "Z" shape, and I counted the turns that occur every 127 steps, and in the time we went down, we had to turn a total of 21 times before we reached an extremely wide platform.

In fact, it is not accurate to say that this place is a platform, but it is more accurate to say that this place should be a platform. This platform is naturally formed, about two meters wide, more than ten meters long, there are three bridges in front of the platform, each bridge is about 10 meters long, but their style and material are completely different, under the bridge is a bottomless abyss, and the gust of cold wind is blowing up from this abyss.

", it's cold!" I couldn't help cursing, and after saying that, I walked to the edge of the platform, and looked up and down for a long time, and it turned out that the position where we were was was actually the center of a cliff, and if we wanted to cross to the other side at this time, then we could only choose one of the three bridges to pass.

"Brother Tianyi, what do you think it is?" Xiaomei's voice in the biting cold wind began to tremble a little, but it was the first time to go to the ground and fight, and Xiaomei was more like a veteran than me. At this point, she pointed to a rock not too far from us and said, "There seems to be someone somewhere!" ”

"What? Someone? Hearing Xiaomei's words, I couldn't help but become alert, thinking: How can there be people in this place! Grandma's, could it be those guys you met at the door?

Thinking of this, I first made a "stand still" gesture to Xiaomei with my palms down, and then lowered my body and touched the rock.

Sure enough, when he was about to reach the rock, a person's side face appeared in the position where the flashlight was reached, "What person?" I hurriedly asked out loud.

However, what I didn't expect was that I shouted five times in a row, and the guy in front of me didn't even move, as if he didn't hear me at all.

Although he didn't answer me, I didn't stop groping forward, and after a while, I walked up to him, and I shone it with a flashlight, and to my surprise, this guy huddled behind the rocks at this time was actually wearing a German military uniform from World War II, looking at the epaulettes on his shoulders, this guy's official position is not small, he is a major. It's just that at this time, he has already "returned to the west and seen the God in his heart", and his body has been darkened, dried up, and from time to time emits a putrid smell because of the long-term weathering.

"This guy turned out to be a dead man!" I said to Xiaomei as I shone a flashlight around the neighborhood.

At this time, I found that on such a small platform, there were at least a dozen German corpses lying on it, but what struck me was strange was that the death posture of these guys was extremely peculiar, they were all curled up, their heads were tilted high, their eyes were staring, and their mouths were long, as if they had seen something and were scared to death.

"Huh?" I couldn't help but frown.

"What's wrong?" Mei asked after seeing my expression.

"Don't you think it's strange how these guys died?" I muttered.

"It's really weird! It's like being scared to death by something. Xiaomei said on the side.

"I think so too. Looks like they must have met something here to be scared into this virtue! Moreover, according to this view, these German troops should have been here in 1940, and it is estimated that they came here to find something, but they were all wiped out when they arrived here! I said with a sigh.

"Brother Tianyi, what do you mean by that?" Xiaomei asked. "How do you know that they didn't even go inside the main burial chamber? But, look here! Xiaomei said and used a flashlight to shine a flashlight on the dark gray stone bridge on the far left, and then said: "However, there are obviously traces of people passing here!" ”

I followed Xiaomei's flashlight and looked over, it turned out that there was a tattered military boot somewhere, from my angle and distance, although I couldn't see it clearly, but I could still vaguely see that it was a military boot with obvious burnt marks.

"Which boot do you mean left there?" I asked with a smile as I looked at Mei.

"Of course!" Xiaomei replied lightly.

"Haha! Have you ever seen anyone who left their boots on the bridge after crossing it? I smiled and shook my head and said, "Maybe there is, but even if there is, there is only one kind of person." ”

"That kind of person?" Xiaomei asked.

"Dead man!" I said lightly.

After saying that, I lowered my body and prepared to check the cause of death of the German major in front of me, to see if this guy was scared to death as I guessed.

If it's really the same as I suspected, then what exactly did they encounter here? Is it zongzi? Or is it something else that would suddenly wipe out a well-equipped German rapid reaction force, without a chance to resist?

The more I thought about it, the more I felt in my mind that there were countless unclear threads entangled, and I tried to untie these intertwined threads, but the tighter they became.

So, I took a deep breath and simply stopped thinking about these things.

But just when I looked down and wanted to lift the clothes of the guy in front of me, the guy in front of me actually moved.

How can a dead man move?

However, he really moved.

And what's even worse is that not only did he move, but the dozen or so German corpses beside him that had long since decayed and dried up also moved at this moment.

"This ...... What's going on? Xiaomei shouted in surprise.

"I don't know! That's definitely not a good thing, though! Seeing these guys slowly sit up, I couldn't help but take two steps back.

However, when these guys sat up and turned their dry, dark, bacon-like faces, and looked at the two of us with their hollow and dark eyes, there was a sudden "boom" behind us, and a stone door suddenly came down, blocking the grave road where we came.

"Brother Tianyi, what can I do now?" Xiaomei groped around the stone gate for a long time, and then said: "This stone gate is the Xuantian Gate, I can't open it inside!" ”

"This is the only way to move forward!" I looked at the "zombies" walking towards us and at the three bridges. "Xiaomei, can you see any mystery in these three bridges?"

"This is the Three Conversion Bridge! I remember that there is a record in the Bee Mountain Xuan Yulu that the earliest origin of this bridge is from Taoism, and the meaning is that the first bridge is the bridge of refuge, and if you want to be too supreme, you need to get rid of reincarnation forever, and the physical body is an obstacle in reincarnation, and only the three flavors of Zhenhuo can resolve it. The second bridge is the bridge of refuge, and if you want to obtain the 36 Sutras, you need to hear the Dharma and understand the true scriptures, and the five senses are the obstacles that hinder the attainment of the Dao, and you need to let go of the five senses before you can ascend to heaven. Finally, a bridge is a bridge of refuge, if you want to reach the secret method in the Xuanzhong, not fall into evil opinions, and rank in the immortal class, then you must wash your body in the way of evil demons, if the soul is still white, you can get the Tao. ”

Xiaomei recited all the content about the Three Conversion Bridges in the record of Bee Mountain Xuanyu in one go.

"Xiaomei, at this time, you can still recite it word for word. I really admire you! "And as I spoke, several zombies still came to me.

The guys pounced on the two of us with their teeth and claws, their bones revealing from under their rotten skin, and as they opened their mouths and roared, I noticed that from time to time there were many black multi-legged reptiles crawling back and forth between their eyes, ears, mouths and noses, and they looked very disgusting. Although these guys are not very flexible in their actions, in such a territory, they still have the advantage of being outnumbered, and for a while, Xiaomei and I were forced to retreat several steps.

I ducked my head to avoid the bites of the two guys, then lifted my foot and plunged the nearest guy into the abyss.

"Xiaomei, do you know how we should cross this Three Conversion Bridge? If we continue to fight like this, it is estimated that the two of us will also return to the West! I shouted.

"I just know that I should take the bridge in the center! However, the book doesn't mention exactly how to cross the bridge, so I don't know how to cross it. Xiaomei shouted as she struck.

"Grandma's! In that case, we can only try! With that, I rolled forward to avoid the two zombies, but at this moment, several of those black bugs fell on me. These guys are not small, two one-dollar coins are the size of a coin combined, the head is small, with long antennae, many feet, very fast, the whole is black, crystal clear, there is a black blood bubble in the center of the back, and it exudes a strange light when it jumps.

To my great surprise, as soon as these guys landed on me, they went under my skin at such a rapid speed that some of them were even going straight to my eyes, ears, nose, and mouth. I was so frightened that I rolled over and stood up, and slapped the insects on my body to death, trampled them to death, and one of them had already gotten into my arm, and I could only grit my teeth and jump it out with a knife, and slammed it on the ground.

"Brother Tianyi, be careful of those bugs! These bugs are the Gobik bugs, also known as the Black Gold Turtle! They are a type of zombie bug from the Ancient Western Regions that will eat away at your brain as fast as they can, turning you into an unconscious zombie. Xiaomei shouted.

"! Lao Tzu almost fell asleep just now! It's not a matter to fight like this, Xiaomei, we can only fight, I'm in front and you're behind, and we rush over from the Conversion Bridge in the middle. With that, I ran towards the bridge in the middle.
