Looking at the diameter and scale of the tunnel, it is not possible for a beast to dig it successfully, and this tunnel obviously has traces of artificial excavation.

Chen Yun raised the flashlight and shone it down, the tunnel had a turn, about five meters down, the flashlight could not shine in, Chen Yun stared at the entrance of the cave, his eyes flickered, I hurriedly turned around and shouted to Qianyong, "Old Qian, come and see, do you recognize this cave?" ”

Qian Yong has been holding a rifle, cautiously guarding the gate of the broken temple, only when he heard this he put the rifle back on his shoulder, strode towards us, looked down, his face was strange, I saw that he was silent and refused to speak, so I asked, "Tell me, do you recognize this hole?" ”

Qianyong shook his head, saying I don't know, this broken temple has been standing here since I was a child, and I don't know how many years, and then there was a disaster in Lao Yaogou, so someone moved all the corpses to this side of the town, and the old people in the village said that this temple is where the mountain god lives, it is very effective, and it is best to suppress and suppress the villagers who died in vain, and no one dares to approach here since then.

Qian Yong said so much, but there was only one useful word, that is, he had never entered this broken temple, and he didn't know that there would be a big pit behind this statue.

Ge Zhuang smashed his lips and whispered, "Little pumpkin, do you think it is possible that this is the case, decades ago, there was a wave of tomb robbers who targeted here, deliberately made a drought and caused psychological panic to the villagers, and then deliberately carried the corpse over, saying that it was to use the temple to suppress evil, so that no one dared to approach the broken temple." ”

I thought about it, and I also felt that Ge Zhuang's words were very likely, so I said, "Do you want to go down and have a look?" Qianyong frowned and said, "I think it's better to forget it, the hole under the broken temple is likely to be the place where the corpse is buried, we didn't see the corpse above, in case it is ...... below."

I interrupted Qianyong and said that we can't be so careless, even if it's a dead man's pit? The fight between me and the fat man can be worth the mass grave, the ghost is not as terrible as you think, don't be so alarmed.

Qian Yong couldn't persuade us, so he could only smile bitterly, "I thought I was bold enough, but I didn't expect you to be the real master who is not afraid of things, okay, then let's go down, go and see, if the legend in the village is true, even my grandfather should be buried below, and it's good to give him a pillar of incense." ”

We quickly took out the lights, tied them to their heads collectively to illuminate, and prepared all the arrangements for the pit, although the hole is relatively wide, but there are many twists and turns, people want to go down, can only crawl forward, I first small hole, light the torch diagonally into the tunnel, and then the cat's waist squatting, a little bit forward.

Although we have prepared lighting tools, according to the records in the second master's "Feng Shui Notes", there is no way for modern high-tech lighting equipment to illuminate ghosts, and only natural fire can react when encountering the flow of yin qi.

As soon as the fire shines, I immediately found that on the inner wall of the cave, there are actually a lot of traces of sharp weapons excavation, obviously such a large-scale hole can not be excavated overnight, if it is not a robbery hole, it must be a grave pit, but whether there are gold and silver treasures buried below, or rotten dried corpses and old zongzi, you can only go down to the depths of the tomb to find out.

In order to save space, Ge Zhuang and others put the rifle on their backs, dragging them down, so that the rifle can not be used, the hole is long and narrow, everyone uses their heads against their buttocks, lined up in a row, very crowded, once someone shoots in the back, I am bound to suffer when I walk in the front, while taking out * to open the road, I whispered behind me, "All give the rifle insurance, beware of not firing at my ass!" ”

We didn't know where this swishing hole leads, and we are very puzzled. The mud cave is narrow and long, and after passing through the statue, it continues to crawl forward for more than ten meters, and a karst cave is seen in front of you, which becomes much more spacious.

I took a deep breath and quickly squeezed out the cave, Ge Zhuang crawled out of the tunnel for the second time, holding the electric light and scanning back and forth, this meter is not a tomb, but a semi-natural tunnel, the cave wall has left a lot of traces of artificial excavation, presumably the previous landform is not like this, but after human transformation before the formation.

This place was probably once a cave, or there was a mudslide, or it was artificially rebuilt, to form this kind of natural tunnel, the old bell nose is the most effective, crawling out of the hole and sniffing everywhere, pointing to the deepest cave in the rock wall, saying that the smell of the wolf in front, eighty percent of the beast escaped through this hole.

"Let's go, follow along!" Without waiting for me to speak, Ge Zhuang squeezed past us and preemptively touched another crack in the rock wall deep in the cave wall, I was afraid that there would be any unexpected danger inside, and I was also worried that this dead fat man was fooling around, and he faced the head wolf alone, and he didn't say anything about it, and quickly beckoned everyone to follow in.

As everyone moved, the light on the torch flickered on and flickered, shining on the crack of the black stone wall, flickering, and the shadows of the people were also stretched indefinitely, and there was a cold wind circling around, blowing the light on the torch flickering, and the shadow we cast on the stone wall was also crooked, which was particularly weird.

Not long after we walked forward, we entered a huge stone hall, which was extremely wide, even larger than the previous ruined temple. There were originally two clay statues standing in the stone hall, I don't know whether it was man-made, or the age was too old, the stone statues had collapsed, the bottom line was broken bricks and tiles, a mess, and there were collapsed sealed soil everywhere, bulging into a small soil bag.

Everyone squeezed in almost at the same time, Ge Zhuang rubbed off some of the ash on the stone wall, spread in a fog-like manner, permeated the air, choked us couldn't stop coughing, quickly covered our noses with our hands, waited for a while, the dust and ash landed, the air quality was no longer so bad, we put down our hands to take a closer look, everyone was covered with a thick layer of ash, very embarrassed.

Qian Yong said, "How can there be such a big stone hall under the cave? It seems that there are a lot of years, and even the stone walls are so badly weathered, Brother Ge Zhuang, don't rub it, there is ash everywhere, and you want to choke people to death! ”

I waved my hand and said, "Lao Qian, it seems that the legend handed down in your village should be true, this is the dust is not formed after the weathering of the stone wall, but the lime sprinkled artificially, which can be used to restrain the corpse, it is estimated that many villagers were bitten by the corpse and there is a danger of getting the corpse, so Lao Yaogou will place the corpse here, sprinkle lime to seal the corpse, and prevent them from breaking the ground and crawling out." ”

Ge Zhuang interjected, "People are bitten by corpses, corpses are poisonous, corpses are only a matter of time, it is only a matter of time before the corpses become nailed, I am afraid that it is not enough to rely on lime powder alone, the safest way is to burn the corpses to save trouble, why spend so much energy to dig out a cave and bury the corpse in the ground?" ”

I said fatty, you don't know this, the Chinese have always paid attention to the soil after death, this traditional way of life and funeral has been rooted in the soul of the vast number of working people, even if it is possible to become a rice dumpling, it is not easy to light a fire until it is absolutely necessary, in the eyes of the older generation, burning the corpse is disrespectful, what does the stove you make up to burn the corpse like? Sprinkled with cumin, isn't it the same as selling skewers?

Ge Zhuang was in a cold sweat when I said it, this dead fat man likes to skewer beer the most, and I was disgusted by what I said.
