Chapter 32: The Corpse of Terror
One Zhang...... One foot and three ...... One zhang six ...... There is a height of more than two zhang, the spiritual fire talisman suddenly rushed in, so it seems that to reach the bottom, it takes more than two zhang, which is equivalent to the height of the superposition of three people, so jump down, if it is not a strong body, if it is not a person who has practiced a hard kung fu, it will inevitably fall into a fracture, I know my own situation best, I have practiced the basic skills for a few years, the late Qing Dynasty was full of wars, thefts were everywhere, the children of poor families in general, there was no other ability, only to practice brute force, and try to save their lives in the troubled times.
However, my ancestors were heirlooms with Taoism, so I cultivated more than martial arts, a bit of brute strength, but comparable to ordinary people, at most I was a qualified crop man, doing farm work and moving a wine jar was okay, but if I jumped down from such a high hanging stone step, I was really a little frightened!
"Whew!"
Soon, a spiritual fire talisman burned in the master's hand, and then swayed and floated in the air, but this time, the master stayed on the surrounding stone wall, but the stone wall was smooth and vertical, and there was no place to put his feet at all.
"Jumping down at a height of more than two zhang, designated to fall into a cripple, Zhang Zhenren, is there a better way to go down?" Shen Datong bent over and sat on the stone steps at a loss, glanced left and right, and couldn't help but sigh lightly.
"I have, you don't!" The master blew his beard and said impatiently.
"How's that going to work? You can jump like this, you are an old immortal, I am a flesh-and-blood living person, although I have practiced it when I was a teenager, but I have long been rusty, it is a matter of being able to climb into bed every night, let alone jumping from such a high place, it is incredible......" Shen Datong pursed his lips and said with a look of embarrassment.
"I've got a way!" The master suddenly raised the Xuantie heavy sword in his hand, pointed to the stone wall on one side, and said, "Later, I will go down first, and make a gap, and you will use the gap as a point of strength to jump down, how about it?!" ”
"Yes, yes! Zhang Zhenren, you really deserve to be a generation of high Taoism, not only profound Taoism, but also a great martial arts ......"
"Stop, stop! Don't be poor, just pay more attention to your feet when you go down! The master didn't wait for Shen Datong to finish speaking, he stretched out his hand to stop it, frowned, instantly jumped up, jumped down towards the stone wall on one side, and at the moment when he approached the stone wall along the way, he swung his sword and split a gap, lightning and stone fire, only to see half of the bluestone fragments, suddenly flashed down, and the master also kicked the stone wall violently, and his body fell lightly.
Seeing that Master jumped down smoothly, I looked back at Shen Datong and smiled: "Sergeant Shen, you are older in terms of age, so you should please first?" ”
"I was before me!" Shen Datong sneered, glanced at me lightly, and said: "Anyway, you can't play tricks alone, and you won't go back by yourself, that is equivalent to a dead end, your master is going down, I look at you...... Hum! ”
As he spoke, Shen Datong stared closely at a gap in the stone wall, gasped slightly, then rubbed his hands, and jumped down violently towards the stone wall on one side-
"Ahh
With a frightened scream, Shen Datong accurately pointed one foot on the gap, but due to gravity, one leg was almost broken by him, but fortunately, he took it back stiffly, jumped down, and borrowed force between the two zhang, as if he had lost a zhang of gravity, but there was still more than zhang below, even if it was not as dangerous as more than two zhang, but it was not much worse after all.
Shen Datong also went down, I unconsciously burst in my heart for a long time, now it is coming to me, but my legs are weak, it seems that the more I think about it, the more scared I become, but at this moment, it is not possible to go down, gritting my teeth, I took two steps back, clenched my fists with both hands, and jumped down towards the gap in the stone wall on one side.
The eyes are staring straight at the gap, and they are connected to the toes in an oblique straight line, so you must not step into the air...... I shouted hard in my heart, and although the harsh wind blew me physically and mentally, rows of fine beads of sweat still appeared on my forehead.
"Poof!"
"Ahh
At the moment when my toes were about to point to the gap, I clearly saw the part of the gap, and suddenly flashed a piece of bluestone to fill the gap, which instantly filled the gap, restoring the original smooth vertical, so that the soles of my feet were tightly scratched on the stone wall, and with a scream, I fell down on my back, fell in the air, and the gravity increased sharply, I opened my mouth and screamed, hoping that the master could hear it below, so as to catch me, but the truth ...... Always contrary to wishes.
"Bang!"
The buttocks, the back, and the back of the head fell almost simultaneously on the three key points, and with a dull cracking and exploding sound, one side of my body suddenly stuck into a dark groove, and at this moment, a strong musty smell stirred up, so that I rolled my eyes, but gasped for breath weakly.
"I'm okay? I actually fell down a suspended stone staircase more than six meters high, okay?! Hahaha...... cough cough...... "I laughed happily, but soon, those strong musty smells made me cough violently, and I struggled to stand up, and before I could slap the filth on my body, I was already shocked by the scene in front of me!
I saw that the three key points I had just hit were actually ...... It turned out to be three decaying human heads, and their headless corpses were in a kneeling posture, forming an arc, shoulder to shoulder, arranged together, not only these three depleted corpses, left and right, front and back, a big circle with a small circle, nine circles inside and outside, all of them were kneeling corpses, bowing their heads, clinging together, forming a big circle, Master and Shen Datong, standing between the corpses not far away at the moment, the master was expressionless, and Shen Datong was pale!
At this moment, my body was tilted sideways, almost fell on the corpse, immediately looked down, only to see that under the head of these corpses, there is a dark groove, before and after the corpse head, there is a dark groove of the same scale, this is incredible, this way of burial, is simply unheard of, even if the person who accompanies the funeral wants to bow to the emperor, but there must be the emperor's dragon coffin, at least any token of the emperor, it can be said that it is reasonable, but these kneeling corpses, surrounded by a circle, in the middle position, but there is nothing, and I can't figure it out......
"Master, this ...... What the hell is going on?! "I looked at Master anxiously, and at this moment, I was completely confused.
If you want to talk about the pilgrimage bureau, it is not like it, the mother and son pilgrimage bureau outside is facing the direction of the emperor's mausoleum, and the corpses here seem to be facing themselves.
"Are you two hurt?!" Master didn't answer my question directly, but asked a question out loud.
"I didn't, when I happened to fall, I was caught by the heads of three corpses, I was fine, but three heads were smashed off by me." I honestly told Master about my situation, but Shen Datong, who was not far away, was pale and constantly wiping the beads of cold sweat, and the distance between him and Master was similar to mine, and the distance between the three of them was five or six feet apart.
"I ...... I accidentally rode on the neck of a corpse when I fell, and it happened to be pierced by the guy's cervical vertebrae at the base of the thigh, as if ...... It doesn't seem to be a big problem......" Shen Datong barely squeezed out a smile, kicked the corpse away, and clapped his hands as if nothing was wrong.
