Opened the zipper of the tent and found that Brother Zhang was not sleeping, but just sitting there with his back against the box and his eyes closed.

"Brother Zhang hasn't slept yet?" I asked politely, not expecting him to answer.

"Is the formation broken?" Brother Zhang asked.

"It's broken, and the old man says that he will be able to go to the grave tomorrow." I undressed and prepared to get into my sleeping bag.

"Oh!" In the end he said only one word, and then sat there without speaking. His temper has also been understood in these days, and I wrapped myself in a sleeping bag and slowly fell asleep.

"Little brother, it's time to eat." I heard someone barking, rubbed my eyes, saw the old dog eating with a rice bowl, saw me wake up and said, "Little brother, get up for lunch."

Is this sleeping until noon? I thought to myself, and asked the old dog, "Uncle Dog, will this be noon?" The old dog took a bite of food, chewed it a few times, swallowed it, and said, "Have you slept well?" Everyone is opening the tomb gate on the mountain, so let's get up and eat! After eating, go over together. As he spoke, the old dog prepared to go outside, probably because he had no more food in his bowl.

I got dressed a few times, sat down on the wooden box and put on my shoes before I left the tent.

"Did Uncle Dog stay specifically to call me?" I was a little embarrassed and slept until noon.

The old dog had already sat back at the pot, and said while picking up vegetables: "No, we still have a horse to feed, I just let the horse come back, come and eat." As I spoke, I sat down and picked up a bowl of rice to eat.

"Did they eat it?" I took the meal, thinking that it would be just me and the old dog eating, and I don't know if anyone else had eaten.

The old dog chewed on the food in his mouth and said, "I ate it, and I finished it when I came back." "After lunch, I went with the old dog to the hole I found yesterday.

Before he reached the entrance of the cave, he saw a stranger talking to the third child there. The stranger seemed to be a local farmer, with a headdress wrapped around his head and a navy blue coat, and his lower body was not clear.

The old dog also saw the man, and then squatted down, turned his head and whispered to me, "Don't speak, go find a place to hide." I looked left and right, went around to a crack between a tree and a stone, and hid behind the bushes, keeping an eye on the old dog.

After about ten minutes, the old dog stood up and waved with his back to me. Turn out of the bushes and come to the old dog.

He looked back at me and lowered his voice and said, "Let's go, let's go." Coming to the third child, the third child asked, "Did you two see the person just now?" I nodded, and the old dog asked, "How's it going?" Is there something wrong with that person? The third looked at the woods on the right, as if the man had left from that direction, and he replied, "No problem, just a person who went up the mountain to cut wood." Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, and then continued: "Old dog, you better quietly follow and see, after all, it will be a day or two away, in that direction." He gestured to the spot he had just looked.

The old dog nodded, then turned and went downhill. I asked on the side, "Third brother, everyone else is inside?" The third nodded and said, "Well, they are all tearing down the wall inside, this toast is really ruthless, and the passage is sealed with a good wall." "I looked at the hole in the high cliff behind the third child, and it seemed that the cover I made yesterday had worked, and I couldn't see the situation above from below.

"Then I'll go up and help." I looked back. The third child waved his hand, and then walked down on his own, seemingly planning to change places to watch the wind.

I went around the hole from the side, lifted the sheltered branches and thatch, and walked in. By the light from the outside, you can see that there are many large and small stones on both sides of the road, continue to walk inside, turn a little to the left, and see a kerosene lamp on the ground in front of you, the dim light does not fluctuate in the glass cover.

At this time, I could already hear the noise in front of me, and I turned a ninety-degree turn to the right behind the oil lamp, and saw two light sources not far away, one was also a kerosene lamp placed on the ground, but it was obviously brighter than the one outside, and the other was a flashlight, which should have been held in the hand of the old man, and was shining everywhere.

The movement of me coming in caught their attention, and the light of the flashlight hit my face.

"Oh! Little wind, you're here. The old man said, and then removed the flashlight.

"Well, I'm sorry to sleep until now." I approached and said. The old man shone the flashlight back on the wall that was being demolished and said, "It's okay, I worked hard with me yesterday, so I'll let you sleep more." When I approached them, I saw stone bricks of the same size stacked on both sides of the passage, and the bricks seemed to be made of lime between them.

Lao Wang and Lao Hu are using flat chisels to raise stone bricks one by one, and after Brother Zhang receives his hand in the back, they are neatly placed on both sides of the passage.

"Why do you have such a thick wall here?" I asked, a little confused.

"It's waterproof, and the passage from the outside gets lower and lower, and the flash flood will come in in the summer." The old man looked at the water marks on the cave wall and said.

I was helping to stack the stone bricks on the side, and the old man stood behind us. At this moment, Lao Wang suddenly said: "Old man, it's through." The old man immediately shone a flashlight, and saw that a black hole the size of a stone brick appeared on the uneven sealing wall, layer by layer.

The light from the flashlight was still pitch black, and I couldn't see what was inside.

"Plug it with something first, and now give priority to removing these stone bricks on the surface." The old man said solemnly. Lao Wang stuffed back the stone brick he had just taken down, and then dismantled it from the brick with Lao Hu to the surroundings.

After seeing the bottom, the speed of work was also faster, and after ten minutes, a door that was wider for one person appeared, but it was still blocked by the last layer of stone bricks.

The old man shone his flashlight on the whole door, and then said, "Let's go out first." Then the four of them walked out along the road, and the kerosene lamp was still there.

When they got outside, the old man waved to the third and the old dog, and when everyone got together, the old man said: "Now there is only one layer of stone bricks left, for the sake of insurance, the old man will bring a mask, go in and knock it, and come out immediately after knocking." The third nodded and said, "Understood, I'll go now." Then he took a sledgehammer from the snakeskin pocket he had hidden aside.

The old man didn't mean to explain, just said what to do next;

"After the third child comes out in a while, we will wait another hour and go in." Everyone has no opinion, and the old dog still goes back to continue to look at the wind.

Lao Hu thought for a while and said to Lao Wang: "Lao Wang, I'll go to the camp and get some snakeskin bags, and bring some water and miner's lamps." ”

"Oh! Okay. Lao Wang and Lao Hu went to the camp. At this moment, I heard a message from inside the cave

"Bang... Bang... Bang", the old man turned his head and said, "Let's go down and wait." Then he also walked down, and Brother Zhang and I followed behind him.

The sun is not good this afternoon, and there are occasional clouds to obscure it. The weather in early spring is mostly light rain and cloudy skies, and it is rare to have complete sunshine.

Just as he was approaching the flat below, the third man followed from above, without a sledgehammer in his hand, and it seemed that he had put it back in his snakeskin pocket.

A group of three people stood in place waiting for the third child,

"How's it going?" The third child asked as soon as he was old.

"Everything is fine, I knocked off that layer of bricks and ran out." The third replied. The old man nodded, but didn't say anything.

"Third brother, did the old dog find anything after following him?" I suddenly remembered what happened when I came with the old dog.

Hearing me say this, the old man turned his head and glanced at the third child.

"It's okay, the old dog didn't see anyone else in the past, and then the man carried the wood down the mountain." The third replied.

"Oh! Did you come across locals going up the mountain to chop wood? The old man asked.

"Well, when I was looking at the wind, a local saw me and came up to ask about it, and I said that I had come up to the mountain to find the ancestral grave. The man didn't speak Chinese well, and it took several explanations to understand. The third child said.

The old man looked ahead and muttered, "It's good that I'm not Han..." ”

"What's wrong with the Han people?" I asked curiously.

"This is probably a Miao village, and they don't care much about the Han people. If it is a Han Chinese, then maybe you will ask the east and the west. The old man said.

The four of them were chatting in the woods, and the old dog was watching the wind not far away. It didn't take long for Lao Wang and Lao Hu to come over, and everyone returned to the cave entrance almost an hour later.

"I'll go in front after a while, Xiao Zhang is the second, Xiao Feng is the third, and the third, Wang, and Hu are behind." The old man commanded.

Brother Zhang, who has always rarely spoken, said: "It's better for me to be the first." The old man waved his hand and said, "It's okay, just do as I say." After saying that, the first one walked into the cave.

After everyone entered the hole, the old dog covered the branches and thatch again, and finally I don't know whether it was Lao Wang or Lao Hu who turned on the mining lamp above his head, and the third man also carried one on his head, and the old man in front still used the flashlight just now.

It was only after the first turn that I realized that the kerosene lamp that had been placed at the first turn was extinguished.

However, the old man just said two words lightly: "Point on." "Just turn the corner and keep going. Brother Zhang in the back took out the lighter and re-lit the kerosene lamp, and then followed.

Not surprisingly, the kerosene lamp in front was also extinguished. I asked the third brother suspiciously: "Third brother, did you extinguish this kerosene lamp?" ”

"What am I going to do with it, I don't have time at that time." The third child said. I was even more puzzled and said, "Then did this kerosene lamp go out on its own?" Before the third child could speak, the old Hu in the back answered: "It's yin, don't you think this will be colder than the first time you came in?" It dawned on me that before I could say anything, I heard the old man in front of me say, "Stop talking, pay attention to the situation around me." "Now we have come to the door that has been smashed open, and the old man has already taken the lead in entering, and I see that this door has only been smashed out by the third child, a hole the size of a person, and I have to bend down to enter.

In the dark cave, I couldn't see the whole situation clearly through the two mining lights behind me, but I could still see that the stone road in front of me was gradually widening.

The six of them walked slowly, and no one knew what would happen ahead. At this time, I looked back at the back, Lao Wang and Lao Hu were passing by the side of the road, and a kerosene lamp was placed every few meters, and the road behind them had been illuminated a lot.

Just when I turned around, Brother Zhang in front of me suddenly stopped, and I was thinking that I had arrived at the place, but at this time I heard a strange sound.

"Squeak.. Chirping... Boom.. Boom... "Knock" seems to be the sound of scratching glass and kicking the door.

With

"Bang" sound,

"Get out of the way..."The old man shouted immediately, only to see Brother Zhang in front of him leaning sideways, sticking straight to the leftmost wall.

Just when I was still stunned, the third person behind me pressed my head and squatted me down.

Then I felt something fly overhead, the person at the back

He screamed "Ahhh The third child shouted behind me: "Lao Wang, are you okay?" ”

"Oh, my dear mother! Not.... It's okay to hit my chest. Lao Wang replied in the back.

"Lao Hu, you take Lao Wang out first." The third child said. Lao Hu turned on the miner's lamp

"Hey", put down the snakeskin pocket, turned around and walked towards Lao Wang. Just then, I heard it again

"Bang", the old man in front of him had already turned off the flashlight, and he said in a somewhat surprised tone: "Oh! And more than one. Then there was the sound of fighting.

The third child didn't know what kind of lamp came out in the back, and the white light illuminated the entire cave at once.

I saw four figures mingling together in the middle of the spacious cave in front of me, and there were two destroyed coffins against the wall at the end.

At this time, I saw clearly that it was a zombie who fought with the old man and Brother Zhang. This zombie is not dressed in Qing Dynasty official clothes like in the movies I watched, but in tattered sackcloth.

The action is not like in the movie, only jumping and poking, but like a person, and even more flexible.

I was shocked by what I saw, my legs began to shake, and I fell to the ground. The third child behind him walked up with a white lamp, put the lamp on a small stone platform in front, turned around and patted my face and said, "Hey boy, don't be afraid, it's just two zongzi." Seeing that I didn't react, he shook his head, then drew his machete and rushed forward.

After being slapped a few times by the third child, I eased up a little, looked at the scene in front of me, and the first thought in my mind when I came back to my senses was to get out quickly.

But it was very difficult just to stand up, and my legs and even my whole body were still shaking. I saw that the old man was there, and every time the zongzi grabbed him frantically, he was melted away, and it looked like he was playing with the zongzi, and I also knew the kung fu used by the old man, which was Taijiquan.

And Brother Zhang's side is more violent, every time he shoots, he opens and closes, and every punch hits Zongzi's body.

It was also seen that there were teeth, and carrion fell and splashed from time to time. But I don't recognize what kung fu is, and of course I don't know much martial arts.

The third child waited for an opportunity to move on the side, and from time to time went around to the back of the zongzi and slashed it. It seems that we have the upper hand, but no matter how many punches and knives Zongzi takes, they just don't fall.

Just as I watched the chaos and gradually return to normal, the old man spoke.

"It's not okay to go on like this, you can restrain it, and wait for me to cast a spell to draw their ghosts."

"Okay," the third replied.
