The vampire centipedes that were chasing us suddenly stopped pursuing, a change that none of the four of us expected.

The fat man put me down from his back, and after so many bumps, as soon as I landed on the ground, my legs were a little weak, and I couldn't stand up straight at all! And I was a little dizzy by the fat man's "exhaust", and I squatted on the ground and retched for a while!

The situation just now was more urgent, and the time was also relatively short, and the wound on the back of my neck was only treated by Yiyi briefly. Tossed by the bumps of the fat man's way, I felt the liquid flowing down my back, and when I reached out to touch it, I found that it was all dark red blood, and the color of the blood was obviously different from the normal blood color in my impression, it was obvious that after so many poisonous insects attacked the same wound, my body already had toxins!

Qian and the fat man were wary of the retreating centipede army around them, and Yiyi came over with a medicine box to carefully clean up the dirty blood and bandage the wounds.

The murmuring around was intermittent, and the centipedes were just as terrified of the eerie sound as the giant worms we saw in the "Hugh Gate".

I asked the fat man if they could hear the murmuring.

The fat man buttoned his ears, listened carefully, and shook his head like a rattle. Yiyi and Qian also shook their heads, indicating that they couldn't hear any murmuring.

The fat man put away the flashlight and asked me, "Sue, are you sure it's not your auditory hallucination?" ”

I was sure I was a little hesitant when he asked. Before he could finish his words, the murmuring around him came again, the same thing I had heard before!

I learned this voice and said to the fat man, "It will be destroyed... Return! ”

At the same time, the flashlight was directed towards the main hall where the sound came from, and it turned out that there was nothing but the skulls of the people who were neatly placed on the table in the center of the main hall!

When the fat man saw me looking at the location of the main hall, they all shone their flashlights there, and the beams of several flashlights converged together, illuminating a large area of the main hall space!

There is still nothing, this murmur and the ghost that keeps changing positions, it seems that it is really like the fat man, and it can only be conveyed to me alone! This situation may be the reason for the powerful "pineal gland" that our Su family has.

After accepting this fact, I said to the fat man, "We need to get out of here as soon as possible, these centipede armies, like those giant grasshoppers, only began to retreat after the murmuring!" Once the sound is gone, I'm afraid those centipedes will turn around and chase after them! ”

The fat man shone a flashlight on some of the centipedes that had receded like a tide, and nodded yes.

These centipedes are a rare blood-sucking centipede, and their toxins are relatively not very strong. The reason why the centipede army is staring at me is because they are attracted by the blood on my neck and ankles!

After my wound was bandaged, we started to continue on our road.

This altar appeared here a little abruptly, and I don't know what it was for. I remember the altar usually having a place for the offerings, but there are only a lot of candlesticks and incense burners! This should also be like the fat man, lighting candles and burning incense to pass yin and yang!

I had this idea when I first left the altar. But when we were some distance away from the altar, I felt the difference!

Under the altar, in front of the deep pit of the pool of blood, there are large halls on both sides where animal and human skulls are placed. But when you leave the altar and continue walking, both sides are empty! Except for a few abandoned candlesticks at a distance, I couldn't light them after the repeated efforts of the fat man and me! In addition, the road under our feet is also more finely carved!

This road is different from the streets we have walked before, it is very wide, but it is not straight!

Its width, even if you walk ten carriages side by side, there is room for it! The four of us walking here are like walking in a square, but a square of this size, I'm afraid that's it!

Walking on this road, it gives people a sudden feeling, where there is no flashlight, the darkness seems to have an invisible pressure, pressing towards the position of the four of us! It makes my heart feel a little stuffy!

I asked the fat man if he felt this way, and the fat man stroked his chest and said, "Su, you feel stuffy when you are so thin, will you and me, with our burly and strong bodies, not feel stuffy?" ”

So is my heart! While I was talking to the fat man, Yiyi, who was on my right, suddenly interrupted our conversation.

Throw the flashlight around the corner and let's see.

About a hundred meters in front of us, a dark hole appeared! The cave is about three meters high and five meters wide. The light of the flashlight doesn't shine inside!

After discovering the entrance to the cave, the fat man stroked his chin, which had almost grown into a goatee, and said: "This "Inner Country" can be ha, and it will actually build a tunnel!" Let's go over and see if there's a rail in there! ”

Me and him, don't run the train with your mouth full, if there are railroad tracks here, I'll eat this city!

The fat man quipped: "Don't eat it in the city, just catch a few big worms and eat them, look at how fragrant those rat spirits eat!" Crunch, I'm starting to drool when I hear it! ”

Yiyi never participated in our conversation, standing with Qian, looking at the dark hole in front of him in a daze!

From the time we entered to "open the door", until now, we haven't seen even half a figure. If, as the fat man deduced, Master Liu and the expedition members of the "Europa" company who disappeared together were in this city! Then most likely, they are inside the cave in front of us!

Obviously, Yiyi also thought of this, so she was very nervous about cashing in! Because we are not sure, after such a long time, after finding Master Liu and them, will there already be several corpses!

Before we stopped at the entrance of the cave, I shone my flashlight on the way we came. The position of the altar was no longer visible, and a winding path blocked the beam of the flashlight!

As I looked at my surroundings, the fat man suddenly stopped me and said, "Sue, don't you think this is like a place?" ”

I didn't know what the fat man wanted to express, so I said to him: "Don't sell it, just be quick if you have anything!" ”

Neither do fat people

After a lot of rambling, he said straight to the point: "You have studied archaeology, you should have heard of "Shinto"! Here, there are eighty percent similarities with "Shinto"! I didn't notice it before, but now I look back! This wide road is almost the configuration of "Shinto"! ”

Shinto: Also known as the way of heaven, since the Han Dynasty, Shinto began to be used as a way to open the way in front of the tomb! The words handed down in the Han Dynasty are called: "Open the road in front of the tomb and build a stone pillar as a mark". If, as the fat man did, this path here is Shinto, then the deserted menorah we see along the way is not a real candlestick, but a stone pillar!

As a fat man, I also feel that the characteristics of this path are similar to those of "Shinto"!

Yiyi came over and asked me and the fat man what they had discovered, and the fat man told her about Shinto again!

She had no knowledge of archaeology and didn't know what Shinto was! The fat man did not carefully explain the definition of Shinto, but pointed to the dark cave in front of him and said, "According to you, this cave that suddenly appeared does not look like a corridor!" Generally, such a corridor is called a tomb road! Do you remember the altar when we came? ”

Yiyi nodded, and the fat man continued: "Are there two stone beasts on both sides of the altar?" Those two stone beasts are the best evidence of this Shinto! At the time, I was still a little puzzled as to why there were grave beasts on both sides of the altar! Now that I think about it, it turns out that this is the effect! ”

Although I am not interested in archaeology, I know a lot about ancient tombs. I took the fat man's words and continued to explain to Yiyi: "The fat man is all the characteristics of "Shinto", and in addition to his own, there is one of the most obvious characteristics. That is, "Shinto" is not straight! ”

After listening to my words, the fat man gave me a thumbs up. I continued: "The reason why we don't build a straight road is because there is a saying in feng shui that "a straight road is an earth sword", and if you build a straight "earth sword" in Shinto, at the starting point of "Shinto", you will shoot a sword straight to the tomb, which is called a great evil! That is, the construction of mausoleums is taboo! ”

"What do you mean, behind that dark cave, a mausoleum?" Yiyi asked.

I nodded at her! I didn't expect that this city of sacrifice in the mouth of the fat man is not only a place of sacrifice, but also a place of burial in this "geocentric country"!

Knowing what the place behind the cave was, our spirits became tense! The fat man was the first to make a move, taking out the glutinous rice prepared in advance from his pocket! Then he looked at me, and I looked down at myself, and the donkey oil was no longer visible, mixed with my own blood, the unknown liquid from which the rats were pickled, and the lime that had not been washed!

I asked the fat man: "Well, if we run into a big zongzi in the cave in a while, will this little donkey oil on my body be enough to toss for a while?" ”

The fat man pouted his teeth and said to me, "Su, the donkey oil on your body used to turn you into a living donkey's hooves, but now, you can count you as a stove elbow flower at most!" If there are zongzi, I guess they will definitely like to nibble on you! But you're not useless in this state, you can help

We attract firepower! In this way, we are not afraid of big zongzi, and with you attracted, we can escape safely! As the saying goes, if you don't go to hell, who will go to hell! ”

I said to him, "How far you are, fly me as far as you want!" There is no serious word in the mouth! Then regardless of whether he agreed or not, he took a handful of glutinous rice from his hand, and then he was relieved!

We walked into the cave with our hearts, but the environment inside was not the same as we imagined, it was just a simple cave tunnel! Not even a single spider has been seen!

Not only is there no living thing, but this cave is still very long! The four of us walked in the cave for almost twenty minutes and didn't see an exit!

Until after a turn! There was a blinding light ahead! Let's stop moving forward at once!

(End of this chapter) I want to talk about "Tomb Hunting" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat to watch, talk about life, and find confidants~
