Book 1: Snow Ridge Maze Chapter 68: Thousand-Year Gu Spell
Since the last time Uncle Jiu said that he didn't know the details of the thousand-year-old Gu curse, I asked the mysterious Shanzi for a solution, and told Shanzi about the strange reliefs found in the cracks of the Tianpit in the ancient tomb last time we were in the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain.
"Millennial Gu Spell!" Shanzi muttered to himself after hearing this, and then fell into a deep thought, as if he was constantly recalling something, and only opened his golden mouth after a while, "If you want to talk about this thousand-year-old Gu curse, there are a lot of rumors, and I don't dare to pack a ticket for some specific situations, but I once heard my great-grandfather say that this matter has to start with the incorruptible female corpse in this sarcophagus......"
Shanzi pointed to the inscription, and everyone gathered around to listen, as if this mysterious and ancient secret always aroused everyone's curiosity.
"As this inscription says, the Gu Girl fell in love with a man named Fu Demon Man back then, but the good times didn't last long, and no one thought that the Fu Demon Man would like someone else later, so the Gu Girl gave an incomprehensible thousand-year Gu curse, and the gist of the Gu curse was to curse the Fu Demon Man and her beloved woman to never stay together." Shanzi said here and looked at me, "Just like you saw the content of the relief before, as long as the demon man pulls the masked woman's hand, the masked woman will be destroyed.
And the Gu curse is far more than that, the Gu girl also cursed the demon man for immortality, so that he could only look at the woman he loved, but he didn't dare to be together, and let him watch his friends, relatives and all the people around him grow old one by one and leave the world, while the demon man has to bear the price of immortality and eternal loneliness, this is the punishment of the Gu girl for empathy and love for the demon man. ”
Shanzi said and looked at everyone, "That's all I know. ”
"What the most poisonous woman's heart!" The fat man couldn't help but sigh after hearing this, but it aroused the dissatisfaction of all the female compatriots present.
Seeing this, the fat man knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he hurriedly smiled and said with a smile, "Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue." Then he changed the subject and asked Shanzi, "Then where did the demon man go?" Isn't he immortal, isn't he still alive? ”
Shanzi said, "I don't know, no one has ever seen the figure of the Demon Protector again, but because the Demon Hunter has helped too many tribes, many tribes have built various tombs to pay tribute to the Demon Hunter, and the ancient tomb you found in the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain was just one of them." ”
Suddenly, it dawned on me that I had finally solved the mystery of why there were only stone statues in the suspended blood sacrifice coffins in the ancient tombs.
But as Shanzi said, this can't explain the mystery of Yanyu's identity, but I suddenly have a bold guess, that is, Yanyu should have something to do with this thousand-year-old Gu spell, could it be that she is the woman that the demon man liked back then?
In this way, hasn't Yanyu lived for thousands of years, and suddenly this absurd idea shocked me, making me tremble, and I quickly waved away these thoughts, because Uncle Nine said that Yanyu is not a demon, so what else is there besides the demon can live for thousands of years?
Just when I wanted to ask Shanzi if he knew who snatched the demon man, I found that at this time, the fat man on the other side was staring at me with a strange look, like looking at some kind of monster, "Fatty, what kind of nerves are you making, withdraw your eyes." ”
The fat man ignored me, but deliberately gloomy face, made his anger nervous, and said in a strange voice, "Ngawang, you hide it deep enough, say!" Are you a demon man? Why did you abandon this flower-like girl back then? ”
When I heard this, I was stunned for a moment, then reacted, pointed at the fat man and said, "Fuck it, you stretch your face over to me, I promise not to cripple you, master." ”
The crowd was amused by me and the fat man.
The fat man coughed twice, got up seriously and said, "Ngawang, don't think I'm talking nonsense, think about whether you are different from others." The fat man stretched out his palm, made a finger counting motion, and said, "I'll give you a wisp, you see!" First of all, your blood can open the blood sacrifice coffin in the ancient tomb.
Secondly, on the first day we set off for Jade Dragon Snow Mountain last time, your inexplicable body injuries were healed, even if your Uncle Rong gave you a panacea, then you would have to rest for a few days to heal! But you've been fine all night, and didn't you say that Bing'er said that you have a special breath on you.
Moreover, in the maze at the intersection of yin and yang just now, you intuitively went the right way, do you say these strange things? ”
When I was about to defend something, the fat man waved his hand and said, "Shut up, listen to me first, the most important thing is that you also like women, just like the demon waver," the fat man said and couldn't help laughing, "Do you say yes?" ”
"Get out of the way! Who the hell told you that the demon man recruits girls to like. "I didn't want to joke with the fat man, but his words touched my heart somewhat, and these things that seemed to me to be pure coincidences now seem to be strange.
The fat man added something that surprised me even more: "Ngawang! If you think about the old woman in white at the ghost monument, don't you think that she is not like your family except for her appearance, no matter in terms of figure, back, temperament and feeling, there is nothing that is not like it, right?
And didn't Brother Shanzi say just now, as long as the demon man is with his beloved woman, he will make that woman disappear, I guess the old woman in white is because you kissed someone, so she looks old. ”
"Ahh The fat man's words made me secretly scream in my heart, "This...... This ...... "I can't answer the fat man's question at all, and the fat man adds fuel to the fire" Awang! Whether you are a demon subduer or not, give me an honest explanation. ”
"Alright! Dead fat man, have you fucking made enough trouble, I was born to my mother in October, how can I be the old immortal demon man. "Maybe I couldn't explain the fat man's problem, and I felt inexplicably scared, so I was a little excited.
So I looked at Shanzi with a puzzled look, and Shanzi smiled when he saw this, "Don't look at me, I don't know if you're a freak like you who should be studied by scientists." ”
I said solemnly, "Brother Shanzi, how can you learn from the fat man's nonsense, I'm serious." Saying that, I asked Shanzi seriously, "If you don't know, then why did you say that the Qiankun Knife of the Demon Conqueror should have been mine?" ”
Shanzi put away his smile and said, "Because every part was brought by you, that's why I said that it should have been yours, and it was just a simple return to the original owner." ”
"It's true," I was skeptical.
Shanzi should "be true in every sentence".
At this time, Uncle Jiu, who had been silent, spoke. "Nephew, I think what Xiaopang just said should have something to do with the mysterious tattoo on your back, or you can show Brother Shanzi your tattoo."
How did I forget this stubble, after Uncle Jiu reminded me of this, I showed Shanzi my tattoo, and after Shanzi saw the tattoo on my back, he first said, "Ah! He sighed softly, and then his eyes became solemn, dumbfounded, and all that appeared on his face for a moment was an incredible look.
"What's wrong? Any questions? Seeing Shanzi's reaction, I immediately became energetic, presumably Shanzi had something to do again.
Shanzi did not answer my question directly, but asked rhetorically, "Brother Ngawang, tell me first, where did your tattoo come from?" ”
I told the truth, and after Shanzi heard it, he had a strange expression on his face, and kept muttering to himself, "What should this be, it doesn't make sense, could it be just a coincidence?" ”
When the fat man saw Shanzi like this, he was anxious, so he pushed Shanzi who was in a daze, "I said, Brother Shanzi, you are talking, don't chant the scriptures, I feel itchy in my heart." ”
Shanzi came back to his senses and said, "As far as I know, it is rumored that this tattooed demon man has one on his back, and the location is also at the seventh section of the vertebrae. ”
After hearing this, the fat man became excited, "I grass, dare to love Ah Wang, you have lived a fucking life for thousands of years, you are a demon, and you actually kept everyone in the dark." ......" The fat man joked halfway, and when he didn't say anything in the second half, he was interrupted by me, "Okay fat man, don't you fucking act like you didn't take medicine, don't you see that I'm annoyed?" ”
Then asked Shanzi, "Shanzi, are you true?" Didn't hide it? ”
"I can be responsible for everything I say." Looking at Shanzi didn't seem like a joke, I thought twice and asked, "Shanzi, what is your identity?" Can you tell me? ”
"Yes! Oh, yes! Your water is deep enough, and it's not easy for my brothers to see you. "When the fat man saw that I asked Shanzi's identity, he suddenly became energetic.
Shanzi just smiled evilly at the corner of his mouth and said, "Let me keep some privacy!" Don't ask, I don't have anything to say. ”
When the fat man was about to ask more, Shanzi stopped him in time and changed the topic, "With his identity as a researcher on me, it is better to continue to study and study the corpse of this Gu girl, and see if there are any clues, from Wu Nian's brother's tattoo, to the girl you said in Yanyu, the answer to all these mysteries has to start from this corpse of this girl" Shanzi said, looked at everyone, and asked, "What do you say?" ”
What Shanzi said is also that the top priority is to first find out what the relationship between the incorruptible female corpse in the sarcophagus and Yanyu is.
Before we could turn our attention to the sarcophagus, the ghost closest to the sarcophagus suddenly said, "Something's wrong!" ”
"What's wrong?" Everyone looked at the ghost, but instead of answering, the ghost pointed to the sarcophagus, realizing that we could see for ourselves.
I'll take a look! The whole person was a bolt from the blue, and the female corpse in the sarcophagus actually disappeared, silently disappearing out of thin air.
This strange scene made everyone present uneasy, including Uncle Jiu and Shanzi.
Odd! Where do the corpses go? Since everyone had just focused on the inscription on the sarcophagus lid, no one knew how the female corpse disappeared, could it be that she walked away by herself?
The fat man said, "It's not that this female corpse saw us and exposed her old bottom, so she was unhappy, so she tricked the corpse to move the rescuers to clean us up." The fat man's remark made Xiao Jing, who was already uneasy, even more nervous, and patted the fat man and said, "Dead fat man, can you stop being scary." ”
"You don't speak, no one treats you as a dumb person." Lao Jin threw such a sentence to the fat man, which made the fat man very unhappy, so the two rivals began to pinch each other again, and no one let anyone, and I even doubted that they would quarrel with each other.
Just as the two of them were about to use the knife and gun again, Yanzi found a strange place in the sarcophagus, so they stopped, only to see that under the position where the corpse of the incorruptible woman was lying before, there was a small spring with a half-warp of less than three centimeters, strange! Why is there a small spring in this sarcophagus?
Everyone stepped forward with wolf-eyed flashlights and took a closer look, everyone was curious about what was in this spring and what it was for? Could it be that the mysterious disappearance of the female corpse has something to do with this strange spring?
Another man in Shanzi's team couldn't help but be curious, and when he wanted to touch the spring with his hand, he was stopped by Shanzi in time, "Don't touch it, we are the only ones left in the team, I don't want anyone to die." ”
The man saw Shanzi's serious expression, realized the seriousness and withdrew his hand, and it was really a shame that he put his hand in time, because at this time a beetle the size of a baby's palm came out of the spring, the beetle was extremely ugly, at first glance I thought it was an alien creature, the whole worm was in the shape of a fat football ball with two pointed ends, round and bulging, and the back was a superimposed and long carapace, the carapace was a faint brown and dark red, a face with an embarrassed expression, a pair of oval eyes were red, and a pair of front feet with sharp hooks under the limbs-like tentacles, And there are no less than twelve legs, all of which have hooks at the ends of the feet, and the tail is like that of a lobster.
At first glance, this beetle is ugly, not like a fierce insect, but who knows that when it jumped into the hands of the man in the mountain team, its true nature was revealed, and it fell into the man's hand without paying attention.
Seeing this, Shanzi took out the Qiankun knife from my waist at a lightning speed, and cut off the man's arm with a knife, and after the man screamed wolf, the arm fell to the ground, and the beetle also drilled out, and the man stepped on the beetle in anger.
Just when everyone thought that the beetle would die, only to hear the man's scream again, and then lie on the ground in pain, then we saw a hole in the man's sole, presumably the beetle drilled into the soles of the man's feet, and the speed was as fast as possible, this scene can be said to scare everyone present.
Just when Shanzi was about to pick up the knife again, I grabbed his hand in time, snatched back the Qiankun knife, and stopped, "Shanzi, don't cut it, you can't cut off his foot with this knife, won't it make him suffer two kinds of pain at that time." ”
I don't know if my decision was right or not, but after all, my feet are thicker than my hands, and the constant slashing not only does not drive away the beetle, but instead makes the man suffer alive.
When we didn't have to rush to see the man struggling in pain, Xiao Jing screamed, so that we knew that at this time, a large number of beetles were constantly gushing out of the spring in the sarcophagus, and thousands of beetles were like a flood breaking through the river dam, unstoppably gushing out of the sarcophagus.
At first, Shanzi was reluctant to let his teammates go, but he was dragged away by me and the fat man.
In less than two minutes, the surging beetles had covered the sarcophagus for several miles, and when we saw that we could only survive by exiting the tomb, a strange scene occurred, only to see these marching ants-like beetles directly ignore us, but instead divided into several ways, climbing from the pillars and corners to the top of the tomb, crawling into the cave we found earlier.
Isn't the cave that the beetle crawled into the lair of the giant Ma Lu, this scene made us all as confused as a monk.
Soon! There was a sharp and piercing squeak from the cave, and then a female corpse fell from the cave, the female corpse was the incorruptible female corpse in the sarcophagus, and the strange thing was that the skin of the female corpse was obviously as if it had been drained, and all the skin was wrinkled.
After a while, the cave at the top of the tomb was like a hailstone, and swarms of beetles fell down in piles, and the falling beetles burrowed under the female corpse's body, and I was stunned that since the beetle got under the female corpse's body, the female corpse's skin miraculously bulged again, and gradually returned to its previous appearance when it was not decomposed.
Immediately, I understood the meaning of the inscription on the sarcophagus cover, "Because I don't want to be ruined, I practiced the stone lice Gu to protect the corpse and sleep forever".
It turned out that these beetles were stone lice Gu, and the reason why the female corpse did not rot when it came into contact with the air before was because of these stone lice Gu, if I hadn't seen this scene with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it was true if I had killed it.
And at this time, the squeaking sound in the cave at the top of the tomb was getting louder and louder, and it was getting closer and closer, soon! Under the illumination of everyone's flashlight, I saw a dark red body falling out of the cave, that body was not another creature, it was the tail of the giant Ma Lu, but it was obviously much larger, and the exposed giant Ma Lu's body was densely crawled with stone lice Gu, it seemed that the stone lice Gu and the giant Ma Lu had done it.
"Don't look at it, if you don't go out now, I'm afraid that after all the giant horses appear, it will be difficult to walk on thin ice if you want to go out." Uncle Nine shouted, calling everyone back to their senses.
Just as we were about to evacuate, the giant horse in the cave all showed its true body at once, this giant horse was so huge that everyone was frightened, and when the fat man saw the fat giant horse Lu that was nearly fifteen meters long, he couldn't help but blurt out "My grass, this fucking giant." ”
When the giant Ma Lu came out of the cave, his body blocked the entrance out of the tomb, and he saw that his writhing corpse was crawling with stone lice Gu, but the stone lice Gu didn't seem to be a big threat to the giant Ma Lu, the giant Ma Lu was in the cave before, and he couldn't show his body, but now he went down to this spacious tomb, and his body could swing at will.
Just look at the giant Mac Ma Lu first shook his body and swept away a large area of stone lice Gu like a thousand troops, and then turned his head and opened his mouth to eat no less than twenty stone lice Gu, really as I said earlier, the giant Ma Lu has not many heavenly battles due to the advantage of innate conditions.
We wanted to take the opportunity to slip away, but the giant Ma Lu was guarding the exit while cleaning up the stone lice Gu that attacked it, and it was angry when it saw the big and small giant Ma Lu hanging up outside the entrance of the tomb.
Everyone saw that the giant Ma Lu was about to finish cleaning up those stone lice Gu, and the next object to be cleaned up would be us, and this was worth it.
But there is a giant Malu town guarding the exit, how can we say that it will be broken, and they all say that it is wise in a hurry, but at this moment, my fucking brain can't stir up a trick and a half to come out.
The fat man probably was really anxious, kicked my ass, and said urgently, "Ah Wang, don't you call yourself a little encyclopedia?" You can think of a way, and if you can't tell us about the habits of this giant demon, you can do it. ”
Yes, yes, yes! The fat man reminded me that he must be able to find a way to deal with it from the habits of the giant horse, "If you want to say that this horse, it smells like a carrion, because there is an alkaloid in the carrion that can satisfy the venom secreted by the giant horse, so in the case of a carrion, this product usually chooses carrion corpses for food." ”
As soon as I finished speaking, everyone looked at the female corpse of the Ke clan, only to see that the female corpse had been moved by a lot of stone lice Gu, and it seemed that it was about to move into the sarcophagus.
And everyone looked at the female corpse with bad intentions, and when the discerning people saw it, they knew that they had the idea of fighting the female corpse, except for Shanzi.
Immediately, I regretted it to the extreme, and I couldn't wait to give myself two slaps, not to mention whether this female corpse has anything to do with Yanyu, just because they look exactly the same, I also have to protect the female corpse, so I stood in front of everyone, "I don't know what you think, tell you, don't even think about it." ”
Shanzi actually stood on my side and said to everyone, "I support Wu Nian, let's stop beating the idea of female corpses, in my opinion, it can be done in another way." ”
Listening to Shanzi say this, I like Shanzi more and more, and when I was about to take one more mouth, I saw the fat man's eyes widen, looked behind me, and shouted, "In my opinion, run first and then speak." ”
The fat man's reaction made me realize that there was danger behind me, and I immediately turned my head to look, and suddenly my whole body trembled in fright, only to see that the giant Ma Lu had come behind me at some point, hunched over, and stared at me with its round and black eyes......
