Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Eight Coffins of Life and Death
Chapter 28: The Eight Coffins of Life and Death
The scene in front of me was exactly the same as in my dream, and I was terrified when I saw it, for fear that a white miserable hand would suddenly reach out from the black swamp and drag me down! From time to time, a series of bubbles rolled out of the black mud, wrapping a skeleton, emitting an unpleasant smell, and the eyes of the smoked people were a little unable to open, obviously there was a miasma here! Our approach to wet masks doesn't work here! But fortunately, Uncle Fu and the villagers had already prepared, took out some herbs, and let us crush them and put them in the mezzanine of the masks. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info we did so, the herb exudes a special smell, cool, resisting the overflowing miasma outside. None of the night falcons dared to approach this mysterious and strange black swamp, and they all circled over us, helpless against us, and soon dispersed.
"Let's chop some branches as canes, let's try the depth of this swamp and wade through!" Uncle Fu looked at the huge black rock that was important in the swamp, and his eyes were inexplicably excited. Obviously, the black rock that looked like a big toad was the entrance to the Cursed Lands! And now, after all our hard work, we have finally come to the cursed land, that is, the scope of the tomb of the king of Dian! But to get to the toad-like boulder, you have to wade through this black swamp! But...... God knows what's weird in this swamp! But judging by the number of skeletons floating in the swamp, it was clear that this was not a peaceful place! Only half of the white skeleton was exposed to the swamp, revealing a trace of dead air, smearing all sides with a touch of murderous aura! Let's understand that if we don't pay attention a little, we will become one of them!
We probed the swamp with our canes, good fellow, the shallow part of the swamp was shallowest enough to reach our knees, let alone deeper! Everyone's faces were all sideways, and the devil knew what unknown dangers would be hidden under this swamp! I knew that it was a natural instinct for people to fear the unknown.
At this time, Uncle Fu didn't know what to say, and he lost a few more brothers on the banyan tree, and now there are only fifteen people left, and now, even if we come out of the tomb of King Cong Dian out, it won't be long before Qingshui Village can recover. After all, for a mountain village, the death of so many people is not a loss of vitality!
"Well, I can understand everyone's feelings, and my mood is not the same as yours now! But for the sake of the ancestors, for the sake of our children and grandchildren, even if we die here today, it is worth it! The Cursed Land is just around the corner! The hitter also appeared! Can we coax it at this time! Yes? No! "Talking about Uncle Fu's call, I heard my blood boiling, this guy is just right, and he is even more sophisticated in commanding the imperial affairs! I suddenly thought of myself, and I somehow got the "Book of Luban", so I had some research on some mechanism pins, and other aspects were useless! I have been coming back with Ghost Hand and Lao Liu taking care of me, otherwise, I would have gone to see Marx a long time ago!
After Uncle Fu said this, his chest straightened, and those slightly straight branches probed, and took the lead in jumping from the big banyan tree into the swamp, and the black mud suddenly flooded his knees. After walking Uncle Fu to explore the road in front, everyone also took selfies with their chests, wading down the swamp in twos and threes, fifteen people holding their arms together to prevent them from sinking into the depths of the swamp. Although there are few of us, we not only have a bit of the courage to resist US aggression and aid Korea, but also have the courage to cross the Yalu River! There is also a heroic and magnificent "I smile to the sky from the horizontal knife, and go to leave the liver and gallbladder two Kunlun"!
Chen Jinrong looked around, out of me and Lao Liu, the others were not familiar with each other, there was no way, his face flushed, and he stretched his arm in front of me.
"What?" I pretended to be confused and asked her with a puzzled expression.
She raised her eyebrows slightly: "Is your kid itchy skin, and you want my sister to loosen your skin?" I don't know why! ”
I looked at her like this, and I was secretly amused in my heart, and I grabbed her with Lao Liu, so don't annoy her, otherwise she will throw off the whip, and we will suffer again, and there is no place to cry! Then there is a saying, good men don't fight women, do they? It's better to be a little self-aware.
The swamp was uneven, and we walked deep and shallow to the toad-shaped boulder in the center, and several brothers almost got stuck in the swamp several times, but we helped each other and pulled him up, otherwise we would have to take a few more men to ride the crane west!
Walking in this swamp is not fast. The knee-high mud was sticky, and with each step, it took a lot of effort to pull out the leg and neck that had fallen into the swamp. You also have to pay attention to stabilize your body and not fall down. In this kind of swamp, once it falls, it will be the name of Lord Yama! As soon as the mud covers your mouth and nose, even the gods can't save you!
But we didn't go far before we vaguely noticed that something seemed wrong! Turning his head to look behind him, there was a skeleton of Bai Sensen. After walking another four or five steps, I looked back and saw that the skeleton shelf was actually at the same distance from us!
"Wait!" I screamed, and everyone stopped, looking at me with a blank expression, obviously not knowing what kind of nerves I was experiencing! I pursed my lips and motioned for everyone to look at the skeleton frame behind us, only to see that as soon as we stopped, the skeleton frame slowly leaned towards us! This skeleton can move!
How can it be! How is that possible?! I've never heard of a skeleton shelf scamming corpses! But the facts are in front of you, this skeleton shelf is indeed moving! Everyone stared at the skeletal shelf that was approaching, and their faces were cloudy. Chen Jinrong is a girl after all, she is not afraid when she sees skeletons, but when she sees skeletons that can move, she is not afraid that it is fake! At this time, her little face was tense, like the tense nerves in her head!
Lao Liu thought for a while and said, "Don't panic, take a closer look, this dead man's bones are not moving by themselves, and they are ...... Pushed by something! ”
After speaking, Lao Liu raised his hand and picked up the skeleton shelf with a branch, only to see that the ribs of the skeleton shelf were full of piles of things, these things were covered with mud, and Lao Liu and the skeleton shelf picked out of the swamp, and they squirmed for a while, and it made people sick to their stomachs when they looked at it!
As soon as I saw that thing, my heart suddenly became a little hairy, and I couldn't help but think of what happened in the Futu Tower, and when I looked at it, it was nothing else, it was a fat toad, as for whether it was a dead man frog, then I don't know! I looked at the black toad-shaped boulder not far away, compared with the surrounding environment, and wondered in my heart: Could this tomb of the Dian King be countless dead frogs?
Thinking of this, my heart is creepy. hurriedly beckoned everyone to hurry up, stay in this black swamp for a while, the more dangerous it will be! But fortunately, Lao Liu and I carefully identified and found that these were just ordinary toads, not dead frogs, so I secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
We supported each other in a row and walked towards the important boulder of the swamp, the soles of our feet were sometimes deep and sometimes shallow, and when we stepped on them, fleshy and slimy, it was not a good taste! Everyone is similar, at first I didn't know that it was okay, but this time I knew that there were toads under my feet, and I couldn't help but feel a cold swish on my back, and my stomach was also rolling. This taste is not only a kind of destruction for the body, but also for the soul! I can guarantee that people who have experienced it once will definitely not want to experience it a second time!
Everyone endured the nausea and cautiously approached the black boulder. Just as we were about to climb the black boulder, the black mud around us tumbled violently, gurgling and blistering, and we felt a lot of bulging things squirming under our feet. There's movement now, and it's quite big! I saw that there was no wind and waves on the periphery, and a black wave came from far to near, thinking that we rushed over! When we got closer, we could see clearly what the waves were, and it was clear that a large group of toads were huddled into a heap and wanted us to rush over, and we immediately felt a shaking under our feet, and we were a little unsteady on our feet. The stability in this swamp is already very poor, and now it is so reorganized by these toads, and if we are not careful, we will know that we will fall into the extremely sticky mud and become that skeleton with Bai Sensen, and we will be accompanied by these toads for life!
"Quick, steady! Steady! ”
Uncle Fu shouted, took the lead and pestle the branch in his hand behind him, firmly against his body, and we all followed suit. The pile of toads rushed in, and the number was extremely terrifying, and the black wave swarmed up, hitting my legs and stomach for a while! Fortunately, Uncle Fu's method is quite effective, although we were hit by this group of toads, but no one fell. As soon as the black wave passed, we didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly quickened our pace and walked towards the black boulder! But helplessly in the swamp, the speed could not be fast, and we were about to climb the black boulder in the middle of the swamp, only to hear a noise behind us, and another black wave hit us, and all the toads around jumped up and crawled straight on us!
We tore off the toad and leaned desperately against the black boulder! It's fighting, see who's faster! For the black wave behind it was much bigger than the one before, and if we hadn't been to the boulder before they pounced on us, the fifteen of us who were left would have to give an account here!
People are forced out, this is indeed true! Sometimes, if you don't push yourself, you don't even know how good you are! Faced with the test of life and death, we used all our strength to feed, and finally climbed the black boulder in the moment before the arrival of the black wave. The black wave formed by the toad was blocked by the black boulder and scattered in all directions, and those bowl-sized toads jumped onto the black boulder with pimples covered in white flowers! And when we arrived at the black boulder, we were even more dumbfounded, and searched up and down the black boulder, here is such a bare stone, and there is no entrance to the tomb of the Dian king, so we haven't seen a single cave!
Looking at the more and more toads climbing the black boulder, our hearts suddenly sank to the bottom, are we going to work in vain, pay so much, but find such a big stone?
"This ...... What's going on? I'm not in the wrong place, that's what the ancestors instructed! Uncle Fu scratched his head and muttered: "Northwest Heavenly Wolf, the underworld road crosses, within the banyan wall, in the black pool, if the destiny comes, the toad stone is open!"
As soon as I heard it, the direction of the Northwest Sky Wolf is the direction where we are based with the Wulayan Temple as a reference, the Netherworld Road, the Banyan Tree Wall, and the Black Toad Pond, we have all experienced this way, and it should be right to reason. If the destiny comes, the toad stone is open! If the destiny comes, the toad stone is open! I thought about this sentence again and again, and I always felt that something extremely important was missing something. Seeing more and more toads climbing the black boulder, I suddenly understood that the Northwest Wolf was not just telling us the location of the Cursed Land, but also the direction of opening the Cursed Land, Sirius! The netherworld road behind, the banyan tree wall, and the black toad pond do not seem to have any connection, but according to the unusual Zhouyi gossip map recorded in the "Book of Luban", it is calculated that it is an elephant, and the gossip is nothing more than two kinds: congenital and acquired, and the direction represented by the innate gossip is:
Dry for the sky, the direction is south; Kun is the ground, and the direction is north; Separation is fire, and the direction is east; Kan is water, azimuth west; Gen is a mountain, northwest of the direction; Converting to Ze, southeast of the direction; Xun is windy, southwest azimuth; The earthquake was thunder, and the azimuth was northeast.
The day after tomorrow gossip: Kan hexagram in the north, Ligua in the south, Zhen hexagram in the east, the west opposite the Zhen hexagram is the Hui hexagram, the southeast is the Xun hexagram, the northeast is the Gen hexagram, the southwest is the Kun hexagram, and the northwest is the Qian hexagram.
In this way, it is the southeast of Sirius! I found the right position, and I didn't care about the toad rolling in the swamp, I jumped in as soon as I gritted my teeth, stretched out my hand and said that the edge of the black boulder was touched down, and sure enough, I touched a good mechanism, pressed hard, only to hear the sound of the black boulder coming out of the machine, and then the whole black boulder began to rise slowly, everyone saw the movement, and hurriedly went down to the swamp, looking at the black boulder rose five or six meters, and a huge carved stone door wrapped in silt was exposed to everyone's eyes, we were preparing to clean up a little, and the stone door was opened, The stone door made a series of dull noises, and it opened on its own! A peculiar aura came with a touch of vicissitudes!
We took a candle and walked in, lighting the candle not because we didn't have lighting tools, but because the candle could detect air quality. When all the fifteen of us entered it, the stone door closed suddenly, and at the same time, in the candlelight, I could see the situation inside the stone door, the stone room was octagonal, and there was a large black coffin on each side, which was painted with blood-red corpse charms, and there was a stone pillar in the middle, and there were two stone doors on the stone pillar, one black and one white!
As soon as I saw this posture, I, Lao Liu, Chen Jinrong, and the faces of the three of us were bloodless!!
