Chapter Seventy-One: The White Tiger Obstacle (Part II)
Before Tang Qianlin entered the cave, he took out the phoenix noodles in his bag and gave one to each person, and at the same time advised: "I think something is wrong, I will send a signal to you, you all have to put on the mask." Even if there is no poison here, there is no guarantee that there is no inside, there are so many bones here, if it is brought in before it becomes a bone, there will definitely be miasma after the accumulation of decay, everyone be careful. ”
Ni Xiaowan pointed to the jelly beans that smelled at the entrance of the cave: "What about jelly beans?" ”
Tang Qianlin said: "The cat is more sensitive than us, and if it finds something wrong, it will remind us, let's go." ”
After walking into the cave, Yi Mochen looked at both sides and said, "This is the center point of the White Tiger Fierce Barrier Acupoint, there are two roads on the left and right, how to go?" ”
Tang Qianlin held a torch to observe the cave, and found that countless skulls were embedded in the dirt behind the wooden frames on the walls on both sides, and there was a headless skeleton hanging above the head, and some strange tools were placed under the bones.
Tang Qianlin squatted down and asked Jelly Bean, "Hey, what do you think of going?" ”
Jelly Bean looked at Tang Qianlin blankly, obviously indicating that it didn't know either.
Yi Mochen smiled: "You're not, right?" Hunt Qianlin and ask a cat. ”
Tang Qianlin said: "In this kind of place, animals are much more sensitive than us, and it is better to rely on animals than on our intuition." ”
As he spoke, Tang Qianlin took out the phoenix tail compass, looked at it and took it back: "Sure enough, the compass is out of order, it's completely useless, let's go, then follow your instinct and go to the left." ”
Tang Qianlin combined the upper and lower phoenix guns, held the torch and walked slowly ahead, and before he went far, he found that four skeletons appeared in front of him in the middle of the road.
Tang Qianlin motioned to the people behind him to wait first, and he slowly stepped forward, observed for a while, and said: "It seems that he has been dead for many years, and what he has on the back of his head is a pig's tail braid, at least it was during the Qianlong period." ”
Yi Mochen stepped forward and looked: "The three skeletons pressed below are wearing the armor of the Eight Banners, holding an official knife, and a shun knife at their waists, they should be Qing soldiers, and they are not ordinary troops." ”
Tang Qianlin nodded: "The person above is strange, he is wearing leather armor, and the armor is also painted with the pattern of the shaman money leopard god, and he is holding a Mongolian straight knife, and the blade is not rusty." ”
Tang Qianlin said, taking the straight knife from the skeleton's hand: "It's really sinking, Boss Yi, look at this knife handle." ”
When Yi Mochen took the straight knife, he almost fell: "So heavy? After a hundred years, it does not rust, it must be a treasure knife, the handle is wrapped around the cow tendon, what is made of it is not clear, but there is a fragrance on the smell. ”
Li Yunfan and Ni Xiaowan stood behind and watched, and Jelly Bean was also very quiet, squatting between Tang Qianlin and Yi Mochen to stare at the skeletons.
"It seems that the Qing soldiers fought with this person, and this person killed the three Qing soldiers with one enemy and three enemies." Tang Qianlin analyzed, "Judging from the way this person is dressed, it should have something to do with the shaman, could it be a sacrificial soldier?" ”
Ni Xiaowan said: "Maybe it's really a sacrificial soldier." ”
Yi Mochen just stared blankly, and then looked behind him: "We seem to be going the other way." ”
Li Yunfan raised his eyes and looked at him and asked, "What do you mean?" ”
Yi Mochen looked at the four skeletons and said, "Obviously, the sacrificial soldier is here to stop the three Qing soldiers from going this way, so the purpose of the Qing soldiers is to pass through here and go in the direction we came from." ”
Tang Qianlin nodded and said, "What Boss Yi said makes sense, let's turn around." ”
Yi Mochen looked at the knife in his hand: "I'll laugh at this knife." ”
Tang Qianlin said: "Do you know how to use a knife?" ”
Yi Mochen shook his head: "No, I like to use guns, but this is a baby." ”
Tang Qianlin said: "Give it to Xiaowan, she doesn't have weapons, it's good to keep it for self-defense." ”
Yi Mochen hid the knife behind him, like a child: "Why." ”
"I've already made you a B-brand foreign businessman." Tang Qianlin looked at Yi Mochen, "You will have to earn it in the future, just a knife, are you going to do it?" ”
Yi Mochen thought for a while, handed the knife to Ni Xiaowan, and said with a smile: "If you don't feel comfortable, you can sell it to me, and I promise to give you the best price on the market." ”
Ni Xiaowan rolled her eyes: "Neurotic." ”
Tang Qianlin walked back with a torch, and said as he walked: "When I have time, I will make you a scabbard, but I have to ask Boss Yi for the materials." ”
Yi Mochen was stunned again: "Why?" ”
Before Tang Qianlin could speak, Ni Xiaowan said as she walked: "Because my uncle made you a B-brand businessman." ”
Yi Mochen lowered his head and muttered: "Yes, this favor can't be repaid in this life, and you two will have to go to the toilet first when you have diarrhea in the future." ”
After returning to the place where he entered the cave, Tang Qianlin observed the front, and was just about to leave, when he remembered something, he turned around and asked Yi Mochen: "Boss Yi, if this is the center of the White Tiger Fierce Barrier Cave, arranged according to the evil star, where should it be?" ”
Yi Mochen thought about it, walked out of the cave, came to the location of the mine, looked around and stood still, walked towards the inside step by step, and said at the same time: "Shenbei is one zhang and three feet, the same way is three inches less than the ox, and Zhang Bei is five ...... shorter."
After thinking for a while, Yi Mochen raised his eyes and said, "This should be the corner position." ”
"The arm market, the Guanjiao, the heart, the daily change, and the ghost willow are the five evil stars." Tang Qianlin stood there with his eyes closed and recalled, "This is not only the burial place of shamanism, but also the cave of the corpse. ”
Yi Mochen approached and asked, "I understand the Five Evil Stars, but what is this Evil Evil Star Cave you are talking about?" It's unheard of. ”
Li Yunfan looked at Ni Xiaowan, and Ni Xiaowan also shook her head and said that she didn't know, after all, she had followed Chu Lekang for all these years, and what she had learned was less than one-tenth of what she had captured.
Tang Qianlin said: "This is a kind of Xingmen acupuncture point that has been self-improved by sewing thousands of corpses through Taoist alchemy in the past, and it is the first time I have come to this kind of place, I have only heard my master say before, saying that the purpose of sewing a thousand corpses is to use this kind of Xingmen acupuncture point to open the gate of the earth, that is, the gate of the underworld, and the result is that a hundred ghosts are chasing the sun." ”
Yi Mochen shook his head: "What the hell is that hundred ghosts day by day?" ”
Tang Qianlin walked forward with a torch, explaining as he walked: "The legendary ghosts can't come out during the day, but if the ghosts summoned by the gate of the earth yin opened by the star gate acupuncture points can be active day and night, so it is also called a hundred ghosts chasing the sun." ”
Li Yunfan frowned and listened, feeling that all this was simply too weird, he was an atheist, and he had already experienced too many things that would completely subvert his three views, but according to Tang Qianlin, these still had nothing to do with ghosts and gods.
Ni Xiaowan asked in the rear: "Uncle Shi, why do you want to open the Xingmen acupuncture point when sewing a thousand corpses?" Is it just trying to harm the world? ”
"Of course not, from the beginning to the end, I just wanted to study the secret between death, just like we saw in the Seven Star Cave." Tang Qianlin held the torch and looked at the front carefully, "My master said that before they open the Xingmen acupuncture point, they will first look for volunteers, let the volunteers die in a specific place, and then refine their corpses into zombies, and then open the Xingmen acupuncture points, drag the ghosts of the volunteers back, and then find a way to put them back into the zombies' bodies." ”
Speaking of this, Tang Qianlin turned to look at the person behind him: "Think about it, what will happen if a ghost encounters a zombie and finds out that the zombie is his own shell?" ”
Yi Mochen thought for a while and said, "It will be made up into a story, and then told like you to scare people." ”
Ni Xiaowan kicked Yi Mochen: "Believe it or not, I stabbed you to death." ”
Tang Qianlin smiled and shook his head: "What will happen, except for sewing a thousand corpses, no one knows, I think, this is also the reason why sewing a thousand corpses chose to cooperate with Evil Sa, their purpose is the same, they all want to understand the secrets between life and death, after all, people live for a lifetime, in the final analysis, nothing is more important than life and death." ”
After passing through the passage, everyone came to a cave full of large pieces of pyrite, because there were countless fine holes at the top of the cave that reflected the golden light of the pyrite in the cave.
Tang Qianlin extinguished the torch and said, "It seems that this should be the home that Yushi said." ”
Ni Xiaowan jumped onto a rock with a knife, looked behind her and said, "Uncle Shi, there are traces of people living here." ”
Tang Qianlin jumped on the rock, and sure enough, he saw a bed made of straw and rags behind the rock, and there were a lot of empty jars around him.
"Yunfan, Boss Yi, pay attention to the surroundings and don't leave." Tang Qianlin jumped off the back of the rock, picked up an empty jar, looked at the Japanese on it, and then threw it out, "Yunfan, then, look at what it is." ”
Li Yunfan took the jar, looked at it carefully, and then said: "It's the Japanese army's canned red bean sticky rice, and it is also written that it was distributed by the Yokosuka Navy Quartermaster's Department." ”
Tang Qianlin was stunned: "Navy Quartermaster Department? ”
Li Yunfan said: "That's right, that's how it is written, the manufacturer is made by the Onomichi Factory of Hiroshima United Canned Food Co., Ltd. ”
Yi Mochen also found some unopened square cans next to him at this time, picked them up and asked, "What is this?" ”
Li Yunfan took it and looked at it, "This is canned miso juice." ”
After speaking, Li Yunfan squatted down and looked at the other cans: "There is also pork juice, which is a soup that has been boiled together with pork, green vegetables and miso, and it is written that it was issued by the Naval Quartermaster Department." ”
After listening to this, Ni Xiaowan asked: "Uncle Shi, does it really have anything to do with the Japanese Navy?" ”
Tang Qianlin shook his head: "Who knows, there is only one possibility of the source of these things, that is, they were obtained from the base above, and how can there be cans from the Japanese Navy Quartermaster Department in that base?" ”
After Tang Qianlin finished speaking, he climbed out and asked Li Yunfan: "Yunfan, does the Japanese Army also have this kind of canned food?" ”
Li Yunfan said: "As far as I know, there are, but it will not be written that the Navy Quartermaster Department, in fact, I heard that the Japanese Navy's food is better than that of the Japanese Army and the Kwantung Army, and now the Kwantung Army's military rations are basically solved on the spot, and the puppet Manchurian government is supplying. ”
Yi Mochen looked at the depths of the cave at this time: "There seems to be something inside." ”
With that, Yi Mochen walked inside.
Tang Qianlin, Li Yunfan, and Ni Xiaowan squatted there checking the cans, and suddenly the jelly beans made an attacking "whirring" sound, Tang Qianlin immediately grabbed the Xia Feng gun, but at the same time, he found that Yi Mochen was gone.
"Boss Yi?" Tang Qianlin looked around and shouted.
Ni Xiaowan stood beside Tang Qianlin with a knife: "Hey, Yi Mochen, don't you play pranks?" You're not too small! ”
Li Yunfan took two steps forward with a gun: "Something is wrong, how could he suddenly disappear?" ”
At this moment, the sound of hurried footsteps came from behind, and as soon as Tang Qianlin and the others turned around, they saw Ma Yanqing walking over from the road they came from with a group of men......
