The old ghost calmly ripped off the cloth bag on his back and threw it on the stone ladder, supporting it with one hand, and taking out a glass bottle from it with the other. He opened the cap and shook it at the rushing worms, then poured the entire bottle of powder into the river.

Then a miraculous scene happened, those scalp-numbing worms, moths rushed to the mysterious powder like a flame, jumped into the river one after another, were washed away by the river and were powerless to resist, and in the blink of an eye, there was not a single one left of hundreds of worms.

Chen Qiang and I reacted at the same time, and re-ascended the stone stairs to pull the old ghost up the steps, and there was a pungent smell of the powder lingering around us.

"Be careful, this is still one!" Chen Qiang pointed to a worm stuck in the gap between the steps and shouted.

The old ghost looked at him, patted him on the back and said, "It's okay, it's dead." It may have been squeezed here by other worms. ”

"I was disgusted when I saw it, so I threw it away."

As he spoke, Chen Qiang bent down to pick up the corpse of the worm and throw it into the river, but was hurriedly stopped by the old ghost and kicked him one step ahead of him.

"Don't touch it, it's poisonous."

The creepy scene just now made everyone present a false alarm, and after everyone regrouped, they all got into the hole above their heads.

We crawled out of the cave and there was a new burial chamber. This time it was a real burial chamber, with a bronze coffin in the center, and on either side of the coffin stood a row of bronze men in armor and holding large knives. The walls are snow-white, and two long-burning oil lamps hang on them, giving the room a dim atmosphere. As for the place against the wall, there are also some porcelain, clay pots and other funerary goods, although the texture is very ordinary, but their age alone is enough to cost 10,000 gold.

"Ahh Su Mo suddenly screamed again.

In the row of bronze men, there were two corpses lying on the bronze figures, their bodies pierced by large knives, and it seemed that they were mortally wounded. After confirming his identity, there was still no Su Mo's father.

"There are already six corpses, and there are still two people......" I looked at Su Mo regretfully, in fact, she also knew in her heart that her father should be more than lucky.

"Be careful, it's not like the bronze man will be resurrected and killed, right?" Chen Qiang was very cautious, staring closely at those bronze figures, ready to enter a state of combat readiness at any time.

Mrs. Guo, who rarely spoke along the way, suddenly said: "Don't be afraid of little dolls, just ordinary bronze people." ”

As I spoke, I had already stepped forward to check, and there was indeed no problem, just the bronze man who accompanied the burial. I can't help but admire Mrs. Guo's eyesight, which looks like presbyopia, but in fact, you don't need to get close to distinguish the real from the fake.

The old ghost nodded and said, "Some tombs and underground palaces will have a highly poisonous miasma, which can make people hallucinate and go crazy and die. ”

As soon as I heard this, I deliberately sniffed it, but fortunately there was no such miasma, but how did these two people die?

"This should be the main palace of the tomb, right?" Chen Qiang, who was a little more relaxed, looked around and asked.

"Not really." The old ghost shook his head lightly and pondered, "Usually the Song tomb sits in the north and faces south, and it is mostly 'head rests on the Yellow River, and the foot on Songyue', the main tomb is mostly built in the direction of Non Bing, there is a dark river under this tomb, not to mention, the direction is not quite right, the entrance is set up to guard the tomb coffin, the passage is so lengthy but there is only one tomb, it is really a bit overkill." ”

"Maybe you don't have any money to build half of it?" Ma Zhenren.

Seeing that the atmosphere was very awkward, everyone looked at him with caring eyes, Ma Zhenren had no choice but to laugh and say, "Just kidding, just kidding......"

I didn't bother to pay attention to him, turned to the others and said, "Let's find out if there is a mechanism." ”

The old ghost kept staring at the bronze coffin in the middle, which was nearly twice as large as an ordinary coffin, not counting the arc-shaped lid, which was more than half a person tall. The craftsmanship of the coffin is exquisite, it is by no means a vulgar thing, both ends, all around, and the coffin lid have the colorful depiction of gilt lacquer, which is painted with some flowers and birds, fairy and phoenix, in order to bless the owner in the coffin after his death to dissect into immortals, and the coffin lid is engraved with 28 star charts, although the color has not been so gorgeous after thousands of years, it is still breathtaking.

"This coffin has been opened!" The old ghost, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke.

I don't know why, no matter how you look at it, it's just a bronze coffin with a coffin lid, but the old ghost said with a serious expression: "Come here and help me push the coffin lid, maybe there is a secret passage mechanism." ”

I chose to believe the judgment of the old ghost, Chen Qiang also came up to help, but Ma Zhenren followed Mrs. Guo and Su Mo to the side, expecting and scared to watch us push the lid of the coffin together.

"How is it empty?"

As soon as the lid of this coffin was opened, we were taken aback. There was no stench in the coffin, no corpses, only emptiness and a burst of fragrance, and I suddenly felt a little in a trance when I smelled this aroma.

"It smells so good...... Hehe......" Chen Qiang was intoxicated by the aroma and laughed silly, and even the old ghost was stunned in place.

"Don't smell it! This aroma can be fascinating! "I quickly woke up the two of them, but fortunately the smell seemed to be lingering, not very concentrated, and it had not yet caused us to hallucinate, and I thought that the two people who died in this tomb were probably related to this aroma.

The old ghost who came to his senses immediately said nervously: "Oh no, the guy in the coffin is gone!" ”

The old ghost was right, there were some hairs and skin debris left in the coffin, indicating that there was originally a corpse inside.

"What do you see, and who is gone?" Ma Zhenren, who was standing in the distance, asked.

"The zongzi are gone!" Chen Qiang shouted.

Ma Zhenren smiled and said, "Hey, what do I think, I'll invite you to eat a pot when I go back, okay with red dates?" ”

Su Mo glared at him and said, "My 'master', stop it, people are talking about zombies!" ”

"Huh?" Ma Zhenren was startled and took several steps back one after another.

"We didn't touch it when we came, so it means that there is still a road behind us, so let's find a mechanism." Old ghost road.

"Perhaps...... Let the river wash away? Ma Zhenren said tremblingly.

I thought to myself, you are a zombie like you. But the priority is to find a way to the next place, and no one of us wants to deal with him anymore.

"There's wind down there, and the agency should be nearby." The old ghost lay on the ground and put his ear between the coffin and the ground, he must have heard a sound coming from under the tomb, indicating that there must be a passage under the coffin.

Mrs. Guo said in a deep voice: "According to the old woman's opinion, this organ may be on the bronze man's body. ”

We all looked at the bronze figures, and there really seemed to be something strange about them. Su Mo was the first to discover the problem, and said excitedly: "You see, there is a bronze man who has taken the knife upside down. ”

After saying that, she ran to the side of the special bronze man, fiddled with the bronze man's arm holding the knife twice, and said softly: "It seems that she can move." ”

Fearing danger, I hurriedly shouted, "Don't move, let me come." ”

But Su Mo just smiled back at me sweetly, and then with a "click", he broke the bronze man's arm in the same direction as the other bronze men. At the same time, a door was opened on the ground on both sides of the bronze coffin, and a long iron cable was tied to each door, and if you wanted to go down, you could only climb down the iron cable.

"I can't see the bottom." I looked at the darkness of the ground, and my expression was very grim.

The old ghost also said solemnly: "These two doors don't seem to be connected. ”

"What should we do, which one shall we go?" Chen Qiang asked.

The old ghost smiled bitterly: "Normally, when we encounter this situation, we will act separately. ”

"Isn't that weakening?" Su Mo asked puzzled.

"It's better than annihilation." The old ghost said meaningfully.

In the end, we agreed to the old ghost's proposal after deliberation, but how to group them was a difficult problem.

I saw Mrs. Guo move her muscles and bones, and then chuckled: "The old woman pretended to be dead all the way, and it is time to contribute." I'll take these two little dolls with me, you three men all the way. ”

I thought about this plan for a while, we have me and Mrs. Guo on our side, and it should be no problem to encounter ghosts and the like, while they are good and yang, and they are better at dealing with zombies. But if you change Mrs. Guo and the old ghost, the configuration on both sides will be more balanced.

Thinking of this, I was just about to speak, but Mrs. Guo grabbed my palm as if she had seen through my thoughts, and quietly shook her head at me.

The others didn't have an opinion, and the grouping was so done, and just in case, I threw the old ghost a short peachwood sword. Then the three of us chose the hole on the left, and they naturally went to the other side.

I looked at the bottomless dark hole mouth, and I was a little stunned, while the old ghost and Chen Qiang on the other side had already jumped down bravely, leaving only Ma Zhenren still staring at the bottom and hesitating.

As the only man in our group, I couldn't show weakness and plunged into the endless darkness. I grabbed the cold, solid iron cable, and it was pitch black all around, as if I were in the middle of an abyss, and after a long breath, I began to climb down cautiously.
