Book 2: The Bronze Hanging Coffin of the Ba People Chapter 61: Dead Corpses and Living Brains
The reason why the fat man was nervous just now was that he was frightened by this brain marrow, who said it wasn't! Looking at the corpse's clothes, you can know that it has been dead for a long time, only the shabby clothes on the body that can't distinguish the color, and Bai Sensen's skeleton, but the exposed brain skeleton still looks very fresh, even bloody, and the light pillar still has a slight reflection on it, as if it has just been dissected.
The fat man was neurotic, and after seeing this scene, he folded his hands and muttered to himself, "Nan no Amitabha!" Sins, sins, sins. Then he urged me to leave quickly, saying that it was better to be out of sight than to be clean of this kind of evil thing, so as not to memorize the words in the future.
But I didn't mean to leave, so I said, "Didn't you worship the ninth uncle's disciple and be the heir of the Maoshan Sect?" How can you say Amitabha, is this considered a betrayal of your master? ”
The fat man glanced at me and said, "I just said casually, go to the bad luck, don't you move to give me the upper and lower lines." "Don't talk nonsense, let's hurry up, this is not suitable for a long time." ”
I shook off the fat man's hand and said, "Don't worry! Walk! Go and look at the corpse, I always feel that the brain marrow of the corpse is weird, don't you feel that the brain marrow is very large, it does not match the proportion of the corpse at all, and it is not white, I think there is something strange! ”
Since we were also a certain distance from the corpse, and we couldn't see it very clearly, I proposed to go up and take a look, and I didn't care what the fat man thought, so I stepped forward and approached the corpse, and the closer I got to the corpse, the more I felt that something was wrong, and what made me feel wrong was the brain marrow that looked very fresh, it didn't seem to fall out of the corpse's skull, it was more like it grew on a rock, and it was indeed too large to be proportionate to the corpse, strange! How can the human brain grow on a rock, and the evil door will not be successful? I couldn't help but be curious anymore, and I couldn't help but quicken my pace.
When I got to the corpse, I saw clearly, it turned out that this cool thing was not a human brain, but a small rock that had been eroded, because the rocks in the deep caves of this karst landform contained different amounts of limestone, and the degree of erosion was also different, so it was gradually dissolved and divided into non-interdependent, various, and even strange-shaped shapes, just like this rock looked like something bad, it had to be like the brain marrow, and because the body died on the side of this rock, his head happened to be on this rock that looked like the brain marrow, Coupled with the long distance, so I had a preconceived idea with the fat man, and subconsciously mistook our subjective consciousness, so I thought the rock was the brain marrow of the corpse, as for it looked fresh, and the reason why it was bloody was because the rock had some red spots, and it was near the underground river, the environment was humid, there was water on the rock, and the light of the flashlight would naturally have a little reflection as soon as it hit it, plus it resembled the brain marrow, and there were red spots, so I and the fat man naturally thought it was a fresh and bloody human brain.
After the fat man saw it, he knew that he was scaring himself, so he couldn't help but mutter, "I grass, wasting Lao Tzu's expression, it turned out to be a broken stone, I really experienced thousands of demons and monsters, and my face didn't change, but I was scared to death by a stone." ”
"It's not the stone that scares us, it's ourselves, I think we were bitten by a snake for ten years and afraid of the well rope, just met those babies full of fat insects, and now the brain has not yet reacted from the horror, so everything I see is naturally in the horror side." As I spoke, I examined the corpse that struck me as strange.
Although the corpse has become a white bone, it can be seen from the skeleton that it is a man, and his dress has basically faded, but it can also be clearly seen that it is a formal suit, like a set of military * uniforms, the overall style of the military * uniform is similar to the middle * mountain suit, but there is no badge, just a hat that fell on his side has a hat mark, the hat mark is a circle, and there is a triangle on the side of the circle, this is the national * emblem of the national * national * army, but is it not that this corpse is the national * national * army ?
Looking at the military uniform he wears makes me feel that it is possible, the military uniform of the Kuomintang * Party Army * team follows the military uniform style of the Huangpu * Military * Academy Student Army during the Northern Expedition, and the early days are mainly gray cotton cut Zhongshan suits, this kind of clothing is basically used after the establishment of the Nanjing National * Civil Affairs * Government, and the tunic style of the Zhongshan suit has become the basic standard of the national * civilian * military * uniform.
The corpse was still holding a long-pole gun in his arms, at first glance it was a Mauser rifle, I picked up the gun and watched it before I knew that it was originally a Mosin-Nagant * M1891 7.92mm caliber * rifle * gun produced in Russia, but this gun has not been maintained for decades and is under this humid underground, so it has long been a waste gun, although I really * gun is not good, but I have some understanding of guns * weapons and Chinese and foreign military * teams, I can't be wrong, this gun is the standard gun of the national * national * army during the anti-Japanese period, but it is not true that this corpse is really anti-* * The national * national * army during the war, this is strange, how could a national * national * army die in this ghost place?
Although the fat man didn't understand the military uniform and guns, he could still understand the national * emblem of the national * army, and he asked puzzled, "Huh! Ask, "Wang!" You say how can there be people from the Kuomintang in this deep underground? Could it be that this man is here to rob the tomb? ”
I also shook my head in confusion, and didn't answer the fat man's question, the fat man ignored me when he saw that I was thinking, and continued to rummage on the body and the side of the corpse to see if there was anything that could prove his identity or prove the purpose of his trip, the fat man has always been rough, he really used rummaging, and turned the corpse over with his back to the sky, and it was this turn that made us see that there were two large patches on the buttocks of the corpse's pants, and the fat man said "Strange!" Wasn't the Kuomintang very rich in the past, how could this old Chiang let his soldiers wear patched uniforms? Could it be that during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, in order to deal with the intimate relationship between the two parties, we followed the line of the Chinese Communist Party? ”
I didn't pay attention to the fat man when he was messing around, but continued to check the clothes in the corpse's military uniform, although the corpse was wearing the military uniform of the national * national * army on the surface, but inside it was wearing a shabby and worn-out inner layer, this dress knew at a glance that it could not be the clothes of the national * national * army, so I said to the fat man, "It seems that this person is not the national * national * army ." ”
"Who could that be? You said! The fat man asked.
I was silent for a moment, thought for a moment, and then responded, "If I guess correctly, this person should be a bandit who gathered in the bandit ditch at that time, and as for this military * uniform and this Mosin-Nagant * M1891 type rifle, it should be the trophy after the bandits defeated the national * people* army that entered the mountains to suppress the bandits. ”
The fat man also felt that what I said made some sense, but he still didn't understand why this person died here even if this person was a bandit who gathered bandits? And there's such a corpse around here?
In fact, what the fat man was puzzled about was what I was puzzled about, and I said, "If he really came to rob the tomb, then the equipment on his body is not like it." ”
The fat man continued with my words, "What do you mean when I say that the equipment on this body is like a guard guarding the door?" ”
Gatekeeper!? I immediately took out the needleless compass, looked at the terrain here, and used a Qiankun knife to cut some powder from the rocks on the side, put it in the palm of my hand, smelled it, and then tasted it a little with the tip of my tongue, and the result was really as I expected, I blurted out in surprise, "Sure enough!" ”
The fat man was made like a second monk by my inexplicable behavior, so he was in a hurry, and hurriedly asked, "My brother Wang!" You don't want to sell it, why is that really the case? ”
I was just about to speak, when I was suddenly interrupted by a "sudden ......" sound, it was the sound of gunshots! The sound of the AK*-47 assault rifle was a natural reaction after hearing the sound of the gunshot, and the fat man and I naturally squatted down, and then unconsciously glanced at each other.
At the moment I thought to myself that it seemed to be the ghost who fired the gun, the ghost is a sniper who has no bullets, and it is rare for a well-trained and outstanding sniper like him to shoot so continuously, especially in the case of such a shortage of ammunition, unless it is a possibility, that is, there is some extreme danger threatening his life, and I reacted to this at the same time as the fat man, and immediately rushed to the source of the gunfire.
The sound of gunfire came from the lower reaches of the dark river, and when the fat man and I arrived, we saw from a condescending position several columns of flashlights sweeping around the bottom of the cliff, and eight or nine people gathered in a group
, or more accurately, surrounded by a dense group of black-body reptiles, these eight or nine people who are about to lose their foothold are ghosts, Professor Ouyang, Lan Xin and others, and these black reptiles are crawling out of a pool of dark rivers and pools, I and the fat man both know in our hearts that these black reptiles are nothing else, they are the monsters of those babies full of fat worms that almost killed us before.
The ghosts in the valley were using AK-*47 assault rifles to shoot at the monsters that had been approaching them, and the entire huge cavern was lit up by sparks from machine guns, and everyone else was using their tools to cooperate with the ghosts to chase away the disgusting monsters that could not be killed.
Seeing this, the fat man in the high place scolded: "Grandma's! I really can't finish destroying these monsters. Saying that, he took out the sapper shovel and called me down to help, I grabbed the fat man in time, and said urgently, "It's not a way for us to go on like this, there are too many monsters, even if you add the two of us, you can't finish it at all, don't make senseless sacrifices......" Before I could finish speaking, the fat man interrupted me, he stared at me with different and incomprehensible eyes, and then snorted fiercely, scolding, "Ah Wang, when did you become so greedy and afraid of death?" Our brothers are still down there, how can you escape? Fat man, I can see through you today. Saying that, I was about to give me a punch, but I blocked the fat man's fist and explained, "Damn, I haven't finished my words yet, sir, what the fuck are you chirping?" Saying that, no matter what the fat man thought, he pulled him hard, "Come with me, I naturally have a way to save the ghosts, time is pressing, hurry up." ”
As soon as the fat man heard that I had a way, he went from being reluctant to being willing to follow me closely, and I took the fat man back to the place where the body was found, and said to the fat man, "Quick! Find out if there are any secret tunnels around here. The fat man asked me anxiously and blindly, "I said death, Awang, don't you hurry up with me to save people, what kind of secret hole is you looking for here?" ”
Due to the lack of time, I really didn't have time to explain to the fat man, so I said to the fat man in a tough tone, "Don't fucking nonsense, the ghosts won't last long, if you want to save people, look for them." ”
Although the fat man didn't understand what I was doing to find the secret passage of the dark hole, he had always believed in me, he understood that my brain was turning a little faster than usual at a critical moment, I said that there was a way to save the ghosts, that was naturally a way, the fat man knew that I would not joke with my brother's life, just because I was angry and corrupted, I thought I wanted to escape, and now I looked around like a headless fly.
Under the division of labor between me and the fat man, soon! We found a cave in a dark place not far from the corpse, the entrance of the cave was wrapped in dense cobwebs so that I couldn't see what was going on inside, I and the fat man had eight hands and feet, and after cleaning up indiscriminately, we drilled into the hole with a wolf's eye flashlight, and we didn't care if there was danger in the hole, so we followed the zigzag cave to the depths, and didn't run out for a few minutes, and suddenly saw a wooden door blocking the way.
"Looks like everything is as I expected, fatty, quick! Kick the door. As I spoke, I kicked at the wooden door, which looked old, and the fat man, though in a fog, wanted to ask me how there was a man-made wooden door here. But when time was not possible, he had to suppress his curiosity and force him to break down the door with me.
Because the wooden door is too long, it has been corroded almost, I and the fat man kicked the wooden door to a few feet, a wooden door into the door, found that the inside suddenly opened, and there are many sealed wooden boxes, wooden boxes have seals, but after a few decades the words on it are almost corrupted, but it can still be seen that it is a traditional character, but it is no longer clear what is written, but the wooden box can also clearly see the national * national * emblem of the Kuomintang * party.
The fat man was stunned when he saw this box of sealed wooden boxes, and asked me, "What ......is this?" What is it? How can there be a national emblem of the Kuomintang and the Party? ”
"It's a firearm!" I was confident, answered categorically, and then pushed the fat man and said, "Don't be stunned, open the box!" "Saying that, I should first use the Qiankun knife to open one of the boxes, the box is a piece of oiled wax paper inside and out, layers of tightly wrapped guns, I quickly folded one and picked it up to inspect, the result made me overjoyed, it was actually an MP18* submachine gun.
MP18 * submachine gun is produced in Germany, the gun tow is similar to the Mauser * gun wooden gun drag, the head of the gun has many hollow round holes, can be used to fire bullets when better heat dissipation, MP18 * submachine * gun is the first submachine gun in the real sense, although its range is not far, 100 meters is its best range distance, but the firepower is strong, especially suitable for charging and counter-charge, in the first world * war MP18 * submachine * gun performed well, after the first World War the gun and Mauser * gun began to flow into China, Especially in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, our country is based on the MP18 * submachine gun * submachine gun, its magazine is divided into a straight magazine of 20 rounds and a snail-shaped magazine of 32 rounds, I checked the firearms, although the moment is decades, but because of the good sealing, so I am glad that these guns can still be used normally.
