Chapter 99: Into the Mountain
I felt Tuso's hand rummage through the backpack behind me, and in a moment something came out.
"What do you bother with him, your woman's kindness can't force others to stay." Tuso tussted the bolt of the gun as he spoke, and with great effort he turned around and shouted "Bend down!" After speaking, he shot directly at the Nine Punishment Heavens, and this time it hit the wings of the Nine Punishment Heavens. The Nine Punishment Heavenly Body slammed into the rift. Then he fluttered twice and flew over, heading straight for what Tuso was holding.
"Tuso! Be careful! I shouted. Tuso was unmoved, concentrating on aiming. Just as Jiuxingtian was about to fly in front of Tusuo, Tusuo shot again, this time hitting it in the head, and it was wiped out.
Although it didn't get a direct headshot, it was hit painfully and swooped down. Teng Jianmin and I hurriedly lowered our bodies, and the thing was stuck in the middle of the rift.
After a few seconds, he flapped his wings again. I flashed back, afraid it would fly again. But it seems to have hit its fateful door, stuck in the middle and dying.
Just when I was relieved, there was another scream from above, the same as the previous Nine Punishment Heavens...
"No, not good. How can this be returned, still, and another. The rooster stumbled in the back.
I saw a black shadow, flying from Teng Jianmin's direction, a dive, grabbed the Nine Punishment Heaven stuck in the rift, and flew up again. It seems to be a companion who came to the rescue. However, what I feared didn't happen, the second Nine Punishment Heaven didn't attack us, just took away its companion and flew away.
It should be that he was afraid of the gun in Tuso's hand, so he didn't dare to do it easily.
After Jiuxingtian flew away, Tusuo put down the gun he had been holding, looked at Teng Jianmin coldly, and scolded me in his mouth, "Don't use your mouth if you have a gun, grind and chirp like a girl, what a big deal." ”
Tu Suo pointed to Sang scolding Huai, and I couldn't fight back, so I put up with him for the time being. It's just that I never found this gun in my bag before, and it used to be in the middle compartment all along.
Tuso also watched someone in the team take it out and fiddle with it, so I guessed that maybe everyone had something in their bag to prepare.
Teng Jianmin's things this time are quite complete, they are flares and guns, I don't know how much movement he wants to make this time.
Teng Jianmin just glanced at us indifferently, "The one behind me is following, it's getting dark." ”
I realized that there was still a little bit of sunset shining in above, but now even the light is slowly fading. It's estimated that the time is about the same, and if we don't hurry up, we are likely to be trapped in a dark crack all night. I don't know what the situation is like in the back, but it looks like there shouldn't be much of a problem, the injury is certain, but at best a few scratches.
It is estimated that the Nine Punishment Heavens just wanted to drive us away, not really attack. I don't have the heart to worry about Teng Jianmin's death or not, just like Tu Suo said, I can't ask others with my own moral standards. What's more, my so-called standard is likely to kill itself in this environment.
The people in the back also sorted it out and said that there was no problem in continuing to walk. Fortunately, the length of the rift valley was limited, and when we were about 400 meters long, we walked to a huge cave. It seems a bit inappropriate to say that it is a cave, because it is so high that I can't call the word cave. It was like a small hole had been carved into the mountain, and the top of the cave was hidden in the clouds above, so I couldn't estimate the height.
It's like a huge black hole, waiting with its mouth open to devour each and every one of us. Teng Jianmin walked in directly without looking back, his figure in front of this huge cave, it looked extremely small, and slowly disappeared into the darkness.
I took a deep breath, greedy for the thin air outside. I don't know how long it will take to come out this time, but I'm mentally prepared for this journey. If it doesn't work, it's the last time, and it's the best. From now on I will escape this curse, away from these people and these things, and go back to live my little life. If it really doesn't work out... Phew, no in case.
When I first walked in, there was still a faint light in the cave, but after a few hundred meters of depth, the light disappeared completely. A few people behind me didn't know what they had taken out of their backpacks, and they lit up with two shakes. A man came from behind and held out his hand and handed me one. I looked back and saw that it was the fat man from before.
Tiger Head handed me the things in his hand, "Thank you just now." ”
I took what he handed me, "He is the one who should be thanked." I pointed to Tuso. Tuso hurriedly waved his hand, "Hurry up, stop it, it's convenient, don't thank you for coming and going, it's weird and crooked." ”
"I'm not an errand person, and if the two brothers have something to say in the future, I will definitely help if I can." Tiger Head said.
"Whether you can go out or not is two different things, it's too early to say this." Lao Meng said angrily.
I kicked him, "Don't say that frustrating thing. ”
Lao Meng rolled his eyes, "Don't be depressed, don't be depressed, let's go straight to the national highway along this way, and then stop the car and go home, wildflowers bloom all the way, and the sun is bright and bright." ”
Tiger Tou laughed twice, "It's a little interesting, no wonder it's a young man." The tiger head looked at Lao Meng's eyes, "I heard, you are Meng Laosi's nephew?" ”
Lao Meng's expression became serious: "Do you know my father?" ”
"In Jiangsu and Zhejiang, how can anyone not know Boss Meng. Looking at you now, it feels like he felt back then. Tiger Head recalled.
"What was my dad like back then?"
"It's okay." Tiger Head said.
I almost couldn't hold back my laughter, it turned out to be such a likeness.
"Let's go, I won't be able to keep up for a while." Yu Nian reminds us. I looked up and saw that Teng Jianmin had already gone far away, and I didn't know what he was rushing to.
Along the way, the tiger head talked a lot to the two of us, probably he had already entered here, and his guard was also relaxed, anyway, it was impossible for the two of us to run.
We followed the way we came in and went all the way in. I found that the space inside was not as large as it seemed from the outside, but it was getting narrower and narrower, but a few of us were able to walk away.
At this time, the rooster shined a flashlight on the corner of the wall and stumbled, "Old, boss, what do you think it is?" ”
We followed the light of his flashlight and saw a glass coffin on the wall of the cave.
"No, why is there no one in this coffin?" Lao Meng looked left and right and said.
I held up the flashlight handed to me by the tiger head and glanced into the coffin. It was empty, and there was no one in it. I was shocked and screamed badly. In my previous experience, this is most likely a corpse. But now that I've only walked so far, how can I see the coffin without even entering the tomb?
Later, I concluded that this corpse is not divided between inside and outside...
Teng Jianmin glanced at it and said coldly, "Be careful, this tomb is out of gas." ”
The people who followed behind were flustered, all talking about something, as if they had a great reaction to the fact that the tomb was angry. The tiger's expression was calm, and as soon as he looked up at me, he realized that I was looking at him, and grinned.
Tiger Head doesn't seem to be wary of me, which is quite rare.
"Eh, do you think I look good?" I asked Lao Meng next to me.
Lao Meng gave me a strange look, "What are you doing?" ”
"Tell me, am I kind?"
Old Meng Leng stared at me with a smile, "Good." ”
"How good?"
"The kind that emits Buddha's light."
。。。。。。
Teng Jianmin suddenly raised his hand as he walked, signaling us to pause behind him. Once again, he took out what he had taken out of his pocket. I stretched out the rooster and took a look, probably smaller than my fist, Teng Jianmin blocked it tightly, and I couldn't see what it was at all. After a brief look, Teng Jianmin put things back up.
The road ahead was much narrower than when we first entered, but we were quite far from the top of the cave. Somehow, a mist began to slowly rise all around. The deeper I went into the mist, the heavier it became, and the mist was accompanied by a spicy smell, and I subconsciously covered my mouth and nose.
I couldn't see the light outside at all, and the cave was pitch black, and the fog was so thick that I couldn't open my eyes. "Is there a fire in here, smoky and burning!" I said with a frown.
"Ahem, this, this is the same, it's like following up the corpse furnace." The rooster said with a tight cough.
"It's like you've been there." Tiger Head said as he fanned the wind.
"You, don't say it, I really built a funeral home two days ago."
"As long as you can do business, you will not let go of the dead and the living."
"We, we're not like you, we appreciate things, fire, and fiery eyes. If you don't have culture, you can't think of other tricks. The rooster said sourly.
"Quiet!! What are you doing here? Teng Jianmin yelled at the two of them angrily.
The rooster shut up and whispered, "Mom, it." ”
Looking at it like this, the tiger head and the rooster are also superficially obedient to this Teng Jianmin, and they don't regard him as the same thing at all in their hearts.
Teng Jianmin stared at the front tightly, motionless. I barely managed to find a way out of the fog and walked to Teng Jianmin's side.
"What's wrong, why did it stop."
"There's a door ahead." Teng Jianmin said.
"Huh?" I couldn't see anything but fog. I had to stretch out a hand and touch it. About five or six meters away from me, I felt a chill. There was indeed a door, and I noticed that the air visibility was now less than five meters. I snapped a bit of the scrap off the door and brought it to my eyes, and it was black-red powder. It's a bit like rust, but is this door iron?
Although iron itself is not as easy to preserve as copper, the casting of iron is much more time-consuming and laborious than copper, so in ancient times, when the casting process was not so advanced, iron became a status symbol. Because the process is cumbersome and difficult to preserve, there are not many iron tools left to the present. But I didn't expect there to be such a high iron gate here.
Imagining the height of the cave before, and the subsequent reduction on both sides of the cave, it is estimated that the iron gate is now at least five meters high.
"It's rusty." I rubbed the black-red powder off my hands.
Teng Jianmin was silent for a while: "This is not rust. After speaking, Teng Jianmin took a step forward and put his hand on the iron door. What time is it? Teng Jianmin asked me suddenly.
I raised my hand and looked, "Eight-twenty." ”
"Explode it." Teng Jianmin took a step back after speaking.
The next few men organized themselves and pulled out a kind of explosive from their bags that I had never seen before.
"Isn't it useless if you blow this door up?" I asked.
"Can you take it out without waste?" A buddy who came over with explosives said as he passed by me.
To be honest, I'm a little distressed. Such a rare thing, future generations have not even seen it and will be destroyed.
Several people quickly piled explosives in the lower left corner of the gate, and then hid behind rocks on one side. Teng Jianmin gestured, and a special lighter was thrown out. Before I could see how the fuse was lit, it exploded with a bang!!
A wave of heat hit from within, and my ears were buzzing. I rubbed one hand on the ground and shook my head. Next time I have this thing, I'll run a few hundred meters more, and I guess my ears won't be able to slow down for a while.
For the next hour, I listened to people talking with a beep-beep-buzz effect.
I followed the ambush man to take a look at the iron gate, only to see that the lower left corner had been blown down, but except for a pit, the door did not open.
"Then blow up." Teng Jianmin's tone was firm, and it seemed that he had to explode.
