Book 1: The Cave of Snow Ridge Chapter 32: The Tomb (6) The Last Battle

If you want to say that the house leak happened to rain overnight, and the boat was late and encountered a head wind, this person was unlucky to drink water and stuffed his teeth, this is not! Seeing that I was about to reach the entrance of the passage, I suddenly stumbled under my feet, and I don't know what I tripped "Ping Pong" sounded, and the earth monkey heard the movement and immediately pounced.

Seeing this, all of us fled for our lives, because the black light was blinding, and it was really inconvenient to rely on the wolf's eye flashlight in my hand in the case of urgency and fear, in order to make the tomb brighter, I took out a cold firework from my backpack and threw it next to the earth monkey, the earth monkey heard the movement and first pounced, and then was frightened by the cold fireworks and retracted back.

Seeing this, the fat man and the other three also took out cold fireworks and threw them at the earth monkey after each of them, scaring the earth monkey into the corner, but the cold fireworks did not last long, and they would soon be extinguished, so I took advantage of the cold fireworks to look around the environment of the main tomb.

The area of the main tomb is almost more than 200 equal points, the wall of the tomb is densely carved with the prosperous street scene of the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty, there are several groups of people dressed like merchants and scholars in relief, it does not look like a Tang Dynasty from the costume, it is estimated that it is a foreign country sent to the Tang Dynasty to pay tribute and study the envoys, and there are several teams like the envoys of the Nanzhao Kingdom.

I didn't take a closer look due to the urgency of time, but there were some Yuan Dynasty elements on the ground of the tomb in addition to the feces of the ground monkeys and the headless corpses, as well as a set of armor used by the ancients for war, it turned out that I had just tripped over the armor.

There is a big hole in the top of the main burial chamber, which should be caused by the collapse, and I was surprised that there was a sarcophagus suspended on the hole, but after a closer look, I knew that the sarcophagus was not suspended, but was tilted and was about to collapse on the top of a stone pillar, and I suddenly thought of a way to deal with the earth monkey when I saw this.

I picked up a helmet on the ground, rushed to the slanted pillar, struck the helmet with a scimitar, and ran under the sarcophagus to attract the earth monkeys. Demon, sir, I'm here. ”

After hearing the earth monkey, he went on a rampage, I immediately jumped up, my body hugged a side flip to dodge, after landing only to see the earth monkey hit the head on the inclined pillar, but unfortunately the sarcophagus on the top of the inclined pillar did not fall down, just crumbling, the earth monkey staggered, shook my head to try to stabilize myself, just when I was angry and scratched my ears and cheeks and did not know what to do, only to hear a deafening gunshot "呀".

It was Uncle Zhang who immediately made up a shot after seeing this, hitting the hanging coffin and the oblique pillar close to the connection, after the gun, I saw the hanging coffin with a loud sound of breaking wind smashed down, just smashed the hind feet of the earth monkey, the earth monkey roared in pain, the roar was like thunder and terrifying, the earth monkey held the sarcophagus with both hands, ready to lift.

"Run! The earth monkeys are going crazy! Seeing this, I yelled at everyone and ran to the only passage, this time I ran first, followed by Uncle Nine, the fat man, and Uncle Zhang broke off.

There is a landslide at the end of the passage, the bottom is not visible, I ran to the edge of the collapse and saw it, so I stopped the car in time, Uncle Nine was close to me, and when he saw me stop, he immediately stopped, and shook on the edge of the collapse before he stood firm.

The fat man ran very fiercely and because of his own weight and inertia, so although I let him brake in advance, the fat man failed to brake, and fell into the depths of the collapse, and the fat man grabbed my arm at the moment of falling, and I was pulled by the fat man and lost my center of gravity.

"I'm grass!" I scolded, and while falling, I grabbed Uncle Nine, and Uncle Nine grabbed Uncle Zhang, and in this way, everyone was connected into a parabola, one after another accompanied by a voice "Ah! ~" fell into the depths of the collapse.

Everyone fell into a deep pool, which made us happy, not only did they not fall to their deaths, but they were finally able to wash away the sticky and smelly ground monkey feces on their bodies.

Uncle Nine and Uncle Zhang are not good at swimming to the shore with their hands on the shore and their bodies are soaked in the pool, I and the fat man are floating on the pool and soaking, I was going to take a bath or something, but there seems to be something floating on the water in the water, I took a picture with a wolf's eye flashlight and found that it was an old flashlight that seemed familiar, I picked it up and took a look, this flashlight is not the one that I fell into the river from the waist bag I picked up when I entered the tomb.

It can be seen that the bottom of the waterhole in the sinkhole where the water monster is hidden is connected to this place, and I was shocked when I reacted, and immediately shouted to everyone, "I grass!" Hurry ashore and there is danger in the water. ”

Uncle Nine and Uncle Zhang were on the shore, and after hearing my cry, they went directly to the shore with both hands, and the fat man saw that I was swimming desperately and felt that something might be wrong, so he also swam desperately.

As I approached the shore, I was suddenly grabbed by a force at my foot and dragged into the pool, and I was about to use my hands to reach for the scimitar on my waist, but my hands were also grabbed by the two monsters.

I saw that the water monster that grabbed me was covered with green hair, and its body shape was about the same as that of a child of three or four years old, at first glance it looked like a human but closer to an ape, with a cloak and a dark red head hair on its head, and the whole head was slightly tapered like the head of a wild boar, with a groove on the top of the head, and the eyes were swollen with red light, and the upper and lower jawbones of the mouth were particularly prominent, and the three points were like an eagle's hooked beak.

There is a protective shell like a turtle shell on his back, four are especially slender, there are only four fingers on the palm, and the slender fingers have sharp green nails, and there is a knife cut on the arm of the water monster on my left hand, which is the one I was injured in the sinkhole pool.

The water monster is so strong that I can't go back to the sky at all, and I was caught and dragged to the bottom of the pool, and I was so good at the water that I held my breath until the fat man came to save me. As soon as the fat man came to my side, he directly took out the scimitar on my waist and stabbed the hands of the water monster one by one, and then took the scimitar to me and took out the sapper shovel himself, I and the fat man both knew that we couldn't fight the water monster, so we used the wolf's eye flashlight to shine directly on the water monster's eyes, as I said earlier, if the wolf's eye flashlight directly irradiates the subject's eyes at night, it will make the eyes temporarily blind for three minutes, and three minutes is enough for me and the fat man to swim to the shore.

After I went ashore, I gasped for breath, and the big characters were lying down, and Uncle Nine hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Yes...... It's a water monkey! I gasped and replied to Uncle Nine, presumably Uncle Nine's book "Hundred Ghosts and Evil Arts" should have a record of water monkeys, and I and the fat man are also familiar with water monkeys, and our children who grew up along the coast have basically heard the older generation say since childhood, "Don't go to the river or the sea to swim, there are water ghosts." ”

In fact, this water monkey is the water ghost of folklore, the water monkey has great strength in the water, even if the adult male with excellent water nature can not fight a small water monkey in the water, and the groove on the head of the water monkey is very magical, according to legend, when the groove is filled with water, the water monkey will be infinitely powerful, but once the water in the groove is empty, it will become a soft monkey with no power to tie the chicken.

Water monkeys can dig holes at the bottom of the water, shuttle between rivers, feed on human and animal blood, usually drag live creatures into the water and drown alive before sucking the blood dry, only in special cases will water monkeys launch a lethal attack on their prey, because of the mysterious whereabouts of water monkeys, and there is a slippery liquid on their bodies so it is difficult to catch.

After the fat man and I breathed a sigh of relief, the four of us used a wolf's eye flashlight to observe the surrounding environment, it was a cave, the area of the cave was estimated to be more than 20 square meters, and the area of the waterhole was enough to cover more than 10 square meters, and the cave had nothing else except the waterhole in front of it and the sharp cone rock that fell downward.

Just now in the pool I saw a faint light at the bottom of the pool, presumably it should be a pool hole leading to a certain place, there is no other way to go, it seems that I can only explore the pool hole at the bottom of the pool to lead there.

But there are three water monkeys in the pool, this is really nerve-wracking, in the water I and the fat man are not even sure to kill a water monkey, let alone three, if you deal with the water monkey on land it is much simpler, but the water monkey is not easy to go ashore, and everyone can't think of any countermeasures for a while.

"Ngawang! You say water monkeys and earth monkeys dry fight! Who's amazing? The fat man spoke suddenly.

I slapped the door of the head, this is indeed a good way, the sharp teeth on the sharp mouth of the water monkey, tearing up the flesh so powerful that even the frightened piranhas are in awe, let the water monkey and the earth monkey and their cranes and mussels compete, and we sit on the fisherman's profit, it is indeed powerful.

After everyone discussed, they decided to use the fat man's method, the four of us matched in black and white first, Uncle Nine and Uncle Zhang won successively, leaving me and the fat man rock-paper-scissors, and I was hammered to death by the fat man.

Because the cave is a karst cave, there are a lot of drooping rocks on the top of the cave, and many holes on the rock are not difficult to climb, in fact, even if the fat man loses, I have to come, the fat man's skill I don't expect, we used the previous encounter with the bear, I dragged the fat man up the tree, this time the fat man dragged me up, I grabbed the rock and climbed up, to the collapse mouth where we fell, I used the climbing nail, the threaded iron lock, the climbing rope, made a protection point, the main role is to prevent me from falling into the pool.

After the protection point was done, I tied the climbing rope to the safety belt on my body, and then climbed up to the general's tomb in one breath, standing at the collapse of the general's tomb, I illuminated the passage with a wolf's eye, black and pressing, eerie, I couldn't help but feel furious, I hit with a sapper shovel and scimitar to make noise, in order to attract the earth monkey over faster, I shouted "Brother Monkey!" I'm here, come and catch me! If you catch it, the brain is yours. ”

After half a ring, I didn't see the earth monkey appear, I stopped beating, the tomb was silent, I stared at the pillar of light thrown by the wolf's eyes as hard as I could, and everyone around me could hear my heartbeat "banging ......".

"Ngawang! Are you a second goods? Go on! The fat man suddenly screamed below, and because I was so engrossed in the movement of the tomb that the fat man's cry almost scared my soul away.

"I'm grass! What are you screaming, scared the baby to death. I yelled at the fat man incoherently.

"What? Baby? Ngawang, do you still want to be shameless, such a big person, with a healthy body, and a baby? Why don't you say that you scared the slave family to death, it's shameful to sell cuteness, you know? The fat man was babbling down there.

I was trying to refute the fat man, the tomb suddenly "whoosh" a huge sound of breaking the wind came, I turned my head to look, almost not scared to pee, only to see a large sarcophagus flying from the darkness, I immediately threw myself on the ground tightly, the sarcophagus flew above me, hit the wall and exploded directly, from the sarcophagus fell out of a Yuan Dynasty corpse, the corpse fell directly into the pool under the collapse, and then the earth monkey limped towards me.

At the moment when the poisonous claws of the earth monkey were about to catch me, my body rolled and rolled directly down the landslide, the earth monkey had an inertia, and the huge body also fell directly from the landslide, and the earth monkey did not give up waving its claws at me when it fell.

I had a climbing rope prepared in advance and hung it directly onto the rock at the top of the cave, while the earth monkey fell directly into the pool and exploded into a big splash, I untied the climbing rope, climbed down the top of the cave and ran to the fat man to wait to watch the fierce battle between the water monkey and the earth monkey.

The earth monkey did not float up after falling, only to see the water of the waterhole rolling violently, and from time to time red blood and green blood gushed out of the water, accompanied by a smell of blood.

"Ngawang! Who do you think will win? The fat man asked me with a look of God.

I also couldn't take my eyes off the fat man, and replied to the fat man, "This is like three British battles against Lu Bu, it's hard to tell the difference!" It's hard to say. ”

The fat man suddenly took out fifty yuan and said, "I'll pay fifty yuan, and the monkey wins when I buy water." ”

I don't think the earth monkey is built, so I also took out fifty yuan and said, "Then I'll buy the earth monkey to win." ”

Uncle Nine on the side saw me and the fat man betting, and approached us with a serious face, I thought that I and the fat man were going to be scolded again, but as soon as Uncle Nine's first sentence came out, I almost didn't faint. "I'll pay a hundred yuan, bet on them to die together" Uncle Nine said and took out a red hairy grandfather out, Uncle Zhang was relatively poor and didn't give up, so he didn't participate, just said, "I really admire you guys, when is this." ”

When the fat man heard Uncle Zhang's words, he responded, "Hey! If you come to the old man, there is a cloud: "People! We are born to grow through suffering", so we must know how to be happy in time. As he spoke, he took away all the money in my hands and Uncle Jiu, and then added, "I'll keep it first." ”

When the fat man collected my money, I asked curiously, "Fat man!" Did you say that? The fat man took the money, waved his hand and said, "Whatever, it's the Buddha anyway." ”

Just after the fat man received the money, the waterhole exploded a big splash, and a water monkey flew to us from the waterhole, only to see that the protective shell on the back of the water monkey was scratched with four large paw prints, the stomach was broken with a big blood hole, and the intestines were exposed, bloody, and dying.

Seeing this, I clapped my hands and shouted, "Okay! Looks like I'm going to win. The fat man angrily took out the sapper shovel and hit the water monkey's head, while ending the life of the water monkey, he scolded "You are a bad thing, I trust you so much because of the fat brother, damn it, wasn't you a dick when you bullied me and Awang before!" Now it's so cowardly. After the fat man finished breathing, the water in the pool rolled again, and then the earth monkey struggled, and suddenly surfaced, only to see that it was covered with scaly wounds, and a piece of flesh was torn off from its left shoulder, and blood continued to gush out of the wound.

The right paw of the earth monkey plunged into the rocky layer by the waterhole, and I was in a hurry to climb up! patted his thigh and scolded, "Useless things, you have to fight for Lao Tzu!" Before the curse was over, I picked up the sapper shovel and cut off the right arm of the earth monkey to prevent it from climbing up.

Seeing this, the fat man also hurriedly rushed over and waved the sapper shovel to help, and under the messy shovel of me and the fat man, the earth monkey screamed and sank again, leaving only a wave on the water.

After a long time, the surface of the water returned to calm, as if nothing had happened, except for the muddy pool of green blood and red blood floating on the surface of the water.

I threw four or five glow sticks bought by the fat man, and under the fluorescence, I saw the huge figure of the earth monkey at the bottom of the pool, and the figure of the two water monkeys, it seemed that they were all dead, and it was time to go down to the bottom of the pool to see where the hole with light led to, and the fat man and I went down to the pool first to find out the situation.

Before entering the water, Uncle Nine stopped us and said, "Be careful." The fat man and I patted our chests and confidently said in unison, "Don't worry!" Uncle Nine nodded, and then said, "And! Give me the money first, and I won. ”

"I'll go!" I cursed in my heart, and then jumped into the pool, with the fat man following closely behind.

The waterhole was illuminated by the glow stick I fell, at a glance, the waterhole is not very deep, almost more than ten meters or so, the bottom of the pool lies the corpses of the earth monkey and the water monkey, and there is also a dead body of the Yuan Dynasty that has just fallen out of the sarcophagus, the earth monkey is still bleeding non-stop, there are blood holes everywhere on the body, some are big and some are small, the water monkey is not much better, one has been cut off by the waist, and the other head has been cut off in half.

I and the fat man roughly looked at it, just drill into the hole at the bottom of the pool, the hole is not long, about ten meters, quite wide, I and the fat man can swim side by side, swim out of the hole only to see a pool of small pool, the light is projected from the small pool, I and the fat man swam up, after seeing the scene on the pool, I was really dumbfounded, breathtaking.

On the pond is a big cave, there are dozens of meters high, there are four huge giant sculptures on the four sides of the cave, the sculpture can be called a ghostly axe, the skill is superb, it is done in one go, there is no more than the details, it is very whole.

The charm of the sculpture is vividly embodied, the four giant sculptures support the top of the cave, hugging their shoulders and bowing their heads, their blazing eyes are staring at the ground in unison, and the sculptures are all blue-faced and fanged, like people and non-people.

The scene in the cave is unobstructed under the green light of the fireflies, the fireflies in this cave are the ones in the sinkhole before, and I stand in the cave, I can feel the breeze blowing in the southwest direction, it seems that there should be an exit in the southwest direction, I am very happy! Taking off the gas mask, the fat man hurriedly stopped me and said, "Are you looking for death?" Aren't you afraid of inhaling corpse poison? ”

I took a deep breath and said to the fat man, "Don't worry! The air here is circulating," I said and lit the fat man's lighter, and the flames swayed left and right, and they couldn't be extinguished. There is wind here, which means that the air is circulating, and you see! These fireflies can move here, which means that there is oxygen here," I said, pointing to the fireflies in the sky.

After hearing this, the fat man also took off the gas mask, breathed heavily, and after a while, I asked the fat man to pick up Uncle Nine and them, and the method was still the same as last time, using a rope to pull Uncle Nine and them over.

When the fat man went, I pulled the rope with my hand, and my eyes never left the four giant sculptures, from the technical point of view, the sculpture does not belong to the Qin Dynasty after the things, more like the Qin Dynasty or even the Xia Dynasty, a bit like the product of ancient times, what is the position of the giant sculpture? I'm curious.

At this time, the rope in my hand was pulled, it seems that the fat man's side has been fine, I pulled over is Uncle Zhang and our backpack, Uncle Zhang went to the pool and the fat man swam back to pick up Uncle Nine, I asked Uncle Zhang to pull the rope, and then curiously ran over to see what the position of the sculpture was.

The place where the sculpture looks is a staircase, which is very old, with some special runes and reliefs carved on it, as well as some words like bone archaic or hieroglyphs.

These words are the same as Uncle Jiu's Qiankun tube, the tattoo on my back and the pattern on my scimitar, although I can't recognize these fonts, but there are a few general meanings that can be guessed, plus the content of some relief paintings, I can understand a little bit. The text and relief seem to record the burial of a revered figure, is there an ancient tomb here? I looked around, but I didn't find anything special except for runes, words, and reliefs, could it be that I guessed wrong? It doesn't look like there's a tomb.

I swept the dust off the steps again, and when I examined them carefully, I saw that there were several thin lines on the steps that converged from the four sides to the middle of the steps, and there was a small groove in the middle, and the groove was blocked by dust, so I didn't see it just now.

I used the tip of a scimitar to dig out the dust, and found that the size of the groove was about the same as Uncle Jiu's Qiankun tube, and the Qiankun tube should be able to be stuffed in, and the text on the Qiankun tube was the same as the text on this step, so I guess there must be a connection between the two, it is estimated that this step should be a mechanism, and the Qiankun tube should be the key to start the mechanism.

At this time, Uncle Zhang seemed to have a situation on his side, and shouted: "Ah Wang! Come over and help. ”
