Chapter 1 Forty-four Years Ago

Next Chapter

In 1936, deep in a snow-capped mountain in Changbai Mountain.

"Knock" "Knock" "Knock" ...... A slight crash came from the bottom of the snowy mountain, and the dozen or so people standing on the ground stopped all movements after hearing the sound, followed by the sound of neat bullets being loaded, as if waiting for something to arrive.

Ten minutes passed, and the sound of the impact at the bottom of the snowy mountain gradually ceased. The dozen or so people on the ground did not let this go. They are all veterans of the fight, and they understand that once they have to fight, it is sometimes not a good thing to calm down.

After a while, there was no movement. A man wearing a black round leather felt hat and a blue-gray gown said softly: "Brother Qin, it should have been the ice under the snowy mountain just now, and it is estimated that there is no danger. The man who spoke was Zhang Cunzhi, the patriarch of the Zhang family, one of the four gates of the capital.

The man standing in front turned around, he was Qin Cheng, the patriarch of the Qin family of the four gates of the capital. Qin Cheng was holding a dark yellow compass and a white painting scroll in his hand at this time, squinting his eyes and listening carefully to the movement for a while, seeing that there was indeed no movement, he said, "I hope so, Brother Zhang." According to the records in the landscape paintings, you are about to enter the underground palace, so you have to be extra careful. ”

A young man with a submachine gun in the back shook the gun in his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, boss, this time we are fully armed, if there is really any zongzi that crawls out without opening his eyes, we will fire it and cook it." ”

As soon as the young man said this, more than a dozen people with guns in the back also laughed. These people are no longer the hairy young men who have fought for the first time, and they have seen the dangers in the fight many times, and they are not very nervous.

The group followed the map and quickly found the destination of the trip, and came to a huge iron gate at the bottom of the snow-capped mountains.

Qin Cheng stood next to the iron gate and took a closer look, the iron gate in front of him was reddish-brown about ten meters high, nearly eight meters wide, the faΓ§ade was engraved with dense strange words, a giant dragon was lying on the iron gate, and the carving was lifelike. Although he already knew about the existence of this giant gate before he came, he was still very shocked when he saw it with his own eyes, and said: "This is it, this is the entrance to the underground palace." After speaking, he nodded affirmatively to Zhang Cunzhi behind him.

Zhang Cunzhi also nodded when he saw it, walked to a meter to the left of the giant gate, stretched out his right hand and pressed it to the iron door, his left foot was coiled on his right leg, he raised his head upwards with a strange posture, and snorted coldly in a strange posture and suddenly exerted force, and a palm-shaped depression appeared on the giant door, slowly diagonally falling upward.

The guys were dumbfounded, they had all directly opened the thief hole before, and they had never seen such a strange posture blatantly open the door of the underground palace.

Then Zhang Cunzhi straightened up, withdrew his right hand, took a few steps back, stood with Qin Cheng and the others, and said with a long sigh: "This is a special design of the Manchus back then, and the posture comes from Buddhism. It seems simple, but if the angle and strength are slightly deviated, this giant door will not be opened, and it will even cause endless changes. β€œ

A man with a gun in the back asked suspiciously, "Why is there no movement?" As soon as he finished speaking, a loud explosion came from inside the giant door, as if something had fallen from a height, and the entire ground trembled slightly, followed by a creaking sound of the mechanism turning.

With the operation of the mechanism, the giant gate slowly left the ground and rose, a light breeze mixed with a little bloody gas blew out from the door, Qin Cheng and Zhang Cunzhi stood in place and did not move, but they both squinted their eyes unconsciously, and the men behind them all raised their submachine guns for the first time, and their fingers were buckled on the guns.

Five minutes later, the sound of the mechanism ceased, and the door rose completely, and for a moment it was quiet again, and there was no danger.

Qin Cheng took out the compass, waved his hand and said, "Enter the door." The first to walk into the giant gate, Zhang Cunzhi and the man behind him followed closely.

As soon as the group entered the giant gate, there was a sudden snort in the dungeon, and then a lighthouse about two meters high lit up, emitting a yellow light. Then the sound continued to sound, and hundreds of lights came up one after another, some of them were lighthouses on the ground, some were embedded in the surrounding walls, and almost all the corners of the underground palace were illuminated.

Qin Cheng paced slowly towards the inside of the underground palace, the area of the entire underground palace is very large, because there are some lighthouses and stone platforms and other buildings that are not empty, a stone brick paved road starts from the giant gate and extends, and at the end is a large hall with a vermilion roof paved with glazed tiles.

Zhang Cunzhi walked to the steps in front of the main hall, looked up at a plaque on the head of the hall door, and read: "Seal ...... God...... After reading it, he turned his head to look at Qin Cheng.

Qin Cheng stood in front of the hall and pondered for a moment, then said: "This hall should have been built by the Manchus back then, and that altar should be at the back of the hall. Let's leave nothing else at that, just go to the altar. β€œ

Qin Cheng and Zhang Cunzhi were talking, but suddenly they heard a tight burst of gunfire from inside the underground palace, and a scream came out at the same time, listening to the sound of the gunfire was the sound of the submachine gun carried by their group, and the scream was made by one of the guys.

Qin Cheng and Zhang Cunzhi's faces changed, and they immediately ran to the place where the gunshots rang out, and just after running a few steps, they ran into the guys with panicked expressions running towards the two of them, Qin Cheng hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" Why shoot? ”

One of the guys said in a panic: "Zongzi, a zongzi crawled out of a crack in the ice." ”

Zhang Cunzhi was furious when he heard this, and shouted: "Then shoot it, you are all old people, a zongzi panicked like this, like something." ”

Qin Zheng waved his hand to stop Zhang Cunzhi, and then asked, "What the hell is going on, you finish slowly." ”

This guy is still an old man after all, and at this time he came to his senses and stumbled and said: "That zongzi is not an ordinary zongzi, it is a bloody corpse!" It's not your average bloody corpse, it's so agile that it's able to dodge our submachine gun fire. And the lethality is terrifying, one of us pierced one of our arms through the chest with one face, and before he died, he could only let out a scream. ”

Qin Cheng squinted his eyes and fell silent when he heard this, the group gasped and waited for him to speak, Zhang Cunzhi wiped the leather felt hat off his head, snatched the submachine gun from a guy and looked at Qin Cheng.

Qin Cheng gritted his teeth, pulled out a scimitar from his leggings, and said in a deep voice: "You can't just leave, kill back!" ”

Zhang Cunzhi was waiting for this sentence, raised his submachine gun and shouted: "Don't hesitate when you see a bloody corpse, shoot it directly and break it into a blood clot." After speaking, he took the lead and ran to the underground palace.

The light in the lighthouse was constantly flickering, and with the dim light, you could see the mottled blood stains on the ground, and the fishy smell appeared in the air at some point, and it was constantly spreading outward, and the nervousness rose to the extreme for a while, and everyone's hearts were raised to their throats.

The smell of fish became heavier and heavier, and from time to time there was a very strange clicking sound, as if a saw was constantly cutting bones. In such a dangerous environment, even with Zhang Cunzhi and Qin Cheng pressing the formation, there were still a few guys who couldn't stop shivering.

A guy finally couldn't suppress the fear in his heart, trembling and wanting to say a few words to strengthen his courage, he just wanted to open his mouth, he saw a humanoid monster covered in black blood, its body seemed to have no skin, and its muscles were exposed with dark red blood vessels, and at this time it was lying on a person and biting, and at the same time with a bloody hand with black nails tore off a piece of flesh with skin from the person below and filled it into his mouth.

Seeing such a scene coldly, this guy was suddenly so frightened that he almost turned his back on his back, his eyes opened wide, and he didn't care whether he could hit the bloody corpse or not, he was firing frantically with a submachine gun, and roared fiercely: "Rider, die for Lao Tzu, go to death!" ”

Zhang Cunzhi was the first to find the bloody corpse, and wanted to make a gesture to the guys, signaling to quietly surround the bloody corpse before firing, but at this time, he was a step too late, and he could only shout angrily: "Call me!" After speaking, he raised the submachine gun and fired at the bloody corpse, with him leading the way, the guys behind him were no longer as panicked as before, and raised the submachine gun to follow Zhang Cunzhi for a burst of strafing.

The reaction of the blood corpse was extremely fast, and his body rolled directly to the ground, and at the same time grabbed the body of the guy who had just died and threw it at Zhang Cunzhi. Zhang Cunzhi and the others had no choice but to put away their guns and retreat to dodge, and the blood corpse took advantage of this gap to jump up from the ground, not only did not escape, but rushed to the group at a very fast speed, and leaned out his right hand to take Qin Cheng, who did not have a gun in his hand.

Although Qin Cheng's reaction was not as good as that of the blood corpse, it was not a little slower, and his whole body leaned down to avoid the attack of the blood corpse, and at the same time, he held a scimitar in his right hand and stabbed the blood corpse's throat from below. The blood corpse missed a blow, and was forced to pause by the scimitar, and before he could turn around, Zhang Cunzhi, who reacted next to him, swept a few bullets on his back with a submachine gun, and the blood corpse staggered away with a roar, wanting to hide in the corner of the dungeon.

Zhang Cunzhi was willing to give up, and shot the bloody corpse's body and thighs again, and a black pus and blood burst out from the bloody corpse, exuding a fishy smell. At this time, one of the guys took out a grenade from his waist, opened the safety and threw it in front of the bloody corpse, while the other guys held submachine guns and fired intensive shots at the bloody corpse, blocking the bloody corpse's other paths.

The bloody corpse was hurt by the submachine gun, just caring about dodging the bullets, not knowing the power of the grenade, he actually stepped straight over the grenade, just ran out of two steps The grenade exploded, the bloody corpse was swept down by the air current, and the body was scraped off by the fragments of the grenade, revealing the broken red ballast, and the pain made a piercing roar, but he still got up and staggered forward.

Qin Cheng shouted: "Don't let it run away, kill it in one go." ”

Zhang Cunzhi immediately chased after him with a submachine gun, and shot the bloody corpse one after another. The bloody corpse was seriously injured, its speed had dropped a lot, and its body staggered forward.

Qin Cheng and the others chased out more than 100 meters to a huge altar, one of the arms of the bloody corpse had been knocked off, and they wanted to climb on the altar to avoid at this time, but they couldn't climb the altar because they were too seriously injured, leaned against the stone wall of the altar, and were forced into a dead end by Zhang Cunzhi.

Qin Cheng and others also chased and killed, and the group surrounded the bloody corpse with submachine guns. The blood corpse leaned against the stone wall and looked at Qin Cheng and the others, spit blood foam in its mouth and let out a low roar, looking at Qin Cheng with cold eyes, its injury started from killing Qin Cheng, and then let out a terrible roar, and suddenly bounced up and reached out to grab Qin Cheng.

Zhang Cunzhi and others also shouted angrily, at such a close distance, more than a dozen submachine guns fired at the same time, all the bullets swept on the bloody corpse, the bloody corpse was beaten back again and again, large pieces of flesh and broken bone ballast fell off the body, and finally fell to the ground and stopped moving.

After killing the bloody corpse, the group breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the beads of sweat on their foreheads. Zhang Cunzhi just wanted to speak, but his expression suddenly changed, and he flew to knock Qin Cheng down, and shouted: "Be careful!" ”

At the same time, more than a dozen bows and arrows roared, and Zhang Cunzhi was hit by an arrow in his right arm when he was just covering Qin Cheng, but at this time, he didn't care about the pain, and pulled Qin Cheng to hide behind the stone wall of the altar.

Qin Cheng reacted, turned his head and shouted to the guys, "Find cover!" This time I turned around and saw that all the guys had been hit by arrows and fell to the ground, some of them even had their throats blocked by an arrow, and the rest were lying on the ground groaning in pain.

Qin Cheng was suddenly shocked in his heart, others didn't know, but he understood best, these guys were all old guys who followed him and Zhang Cunzhi to the north and south, not to mention that they could take charge alone, but they were not much different, even when the four major families in the Pan family and various gangs fought for hegemony, they all crawled out of the pile of dead. However, today he was put down by people like this, and even he and Zhang Cunzhi almost lost their lives, and I couldn't help but have great doubts about the origin of the sneak attacker.

Five people in Taoist robes walked out of the corner of the dungeon, and one of them whispered, "There are two other leaders, don't let them run." As he spoke, he surrounded Qin Cheng and Zhang Cunzhi.

Zhang Cunzhi felt a sharp pain in his arms, a string of sweat appeared on his head, and he held a submachine gun in his left hand and said fiercely: "I didn't expect the boat to capsize in the gutter and fight with them!" ”

Qin Cheng also held the scimitar and prepared to rush out to buy time for Zhang Cunzhi to shoot. The Dao-robed people were getting closer and closer, and just as he gritted his teeth and was about to rush out, an old man suddenly appeared behind the five Dao-robed people, sighed and said, "Hehe, Dao Su, Shenglong Dao people...... It's time to come, and it's finally here. β€œ

Qin Cheng was shocked when he heard this, his inheritance had never been said to the outside world, how could this old man know?

At the same time, the five Dao robes also reacted in the same way, and then a frightened expression appeared on their faces, as if they remembered an extremely terrifying existence.

The remnant sun is weak, and the cold wind is still there. The iron door of the dungeon re-closed with the sound of the mechanism......
