Chapter 67 Make the best use of people

"Master Zhao! Let's go.... Let's go! ”

The rest of the people looked at the few corpses next to them, and then looked at the scraps of cloth under Zhao Zhoujian's body, as well as the rock pit half a foot deep under his feet, at this time, how could they not understand that Zhao Zhou was not a rich child at all, but a 'ghost and god figure' whose personal strength was simply indescribable, and his skills were like demons and immortals! ’

In particular, visiting the tomb will not necessarily die, but if you don't go, you will really die in the barren mountains and wilderness.

They couldn't do anything, so they gritted their teeth and followed, as if the eight thousand oceans plus some gold and silver jewelry were the ones who bought their lives.

Zhao Zhou saw that he stood still and did not move. When these people saw it, they were ruthless again, and they walked towards the gaps in the cliffs on both sides, making it clear that they were risking their lives and paving the way.

This is also what Zhao Zhou said.

Taking people's money and eliminating disasters for others, they just had the idea of leaving, and they are not righteous themselves, and they are risky in this trip, which can be regarded as atonement for their sins.

When Zhao Zhou saw it, he also moved forward with the birthmark man and goatee in parallel.

And the birthmark Dahan was on Zhao Zhou's side from the beginning, not because he was smart and benevolent.

It was the ghost ancestor who had been dissolved before when he attached himself to his body and told him: 'Boy, I will eat two drops of your blood and tell you a secret. This estimate next to you is a "Bodhisattva who descends to the earth", if you want to live, follow closely! Don't provoke this "Bodhisattva to open his eyes"! At that time, the cause and effect will be retributed, and there will be no regrets. The ancestors can't protect themselves now, and they can't save you! Farewell....'

This ghost ancestor has been practicing Taoism for more than a hundred years, and he is also a 'great warcist' in front of him, he has seen many big people, and his eyes are vicious, especially after he died, he opened the 'Yin Yang Heavenly Eye', and the same as the Ninth Uncle opened the magic eye, and realized that Zhao Zhou was a little wrong, giving him a terrifying feeling.

Therefore, this ghost ancestor was also reluctant to talk to Zhao Zhou, for fear of touching something, and after returning the birthmark Han's 'grace of feeding blood', he finished leading the way and left.

Subsequently.

Everything that the birthmark big man saw was similar to what this ghost ancestor said, Master Zhao, who hired him, was indeed a god!

It's just that if there is no ghost ancestor's words, the birthmark man will not leave.

Because he not only has a terrifying black and purple birthmark on his face, but also a black and purple birthmark on the left side, he has been regarded as a monster since he was a child, has no friends, and has no respect. It also led to his thinking being a little extreme, and his personality was naturally more eccentric.

In addition, in addition to Wu Laogou knowing his 'ability' and treating him as a friend, he saw Zhao Zhou being polite to him a month ago, which was not a fraud, and he also gave him a large sum of money.

Of course, he cherished this friend who did not look down on him, understood Entu, and did his best.

"If I hadn't opened the 'yin and yang eyes', these peers would not have disdained to be with me."

As the crowd walked towards the canyon.

The birthmark man followed Zhao Zhou, recalling all kinds of previous years, quite emotional, feeling that his appearance was not welcome, and also feeling that his appearance was what many people called 'yin', that is, people who can communicate the separation between yin and yang.

And he has been ostracized by the people of the same village since he was a child, and likes to play alone in the mass graves, because no 'people' laugh at him here, but they all regard him as a friend, telling interesting stories hundreds of years ago.

The word 'yin' was also told to him by a Taoist wandering spirit, and he also taught him a lot of mystical techniques. And gave the birthmark Han who grew up on Baijia rice as Li Yin, following the surname of this Taoist chief.

And when the birthmark big man, that is, Li Yin recalled the past, Zhao Zhou and others walked into the depths of the sky and found that the cliffs on both sides were gradually narrowing, and only three or four people could be allowed to walk side by side, especially the peaks and streams above were gradually closing together, and the two sides were steep and uneven, and the light was getting darker and darker.

Hula-

At the front of the line two people took torches from their baggage and lit them, one at the end of the line and one in front of the leader.

After walking for about two or three hundred meters, the sunlight basically disappeared, and it was dim and dim, only the light of the fire.

But the gap in the mountain gradually widened, as if a 'cave' had been carved out between two cliffs.

Especially as a few people in front of him walked in, there was an exclamation, with some surprise, "Huh? This is a man's hand?! Wrong! It's carved in stone, which scares Lao Tzu! ”

"Sun Liu, what happened?" While this person was scolding, Zhao Zhou and others also walked in one after another.

In the light of the fire, they also saw a huge gray hand in the cave, spread out, a single finger was thirty centimeters in diameter, nearly a meter long, and the whole palm was larger than a person.

In particular, the fire in this cave is erratic, and if you don't look closely, it is really like a person being crushed under the mountain and trying to climb out of the ground.

"Amazing."

Zhao Zhou took two steps forward, took Li Yin and a goatee and glanced at the giant hand, and saw that the carvings on it were delicate and even the fingerprints were lifelike, which was very realistic.

"The one who forges this thing, creates the carving skill, must be superb." Zhao Zhou exclaimed. The goatee beside him heard this and hurriedly nodded yes.

"Master Zhao, let...."The others are not so elegant, but they feel that this place is becoming more and more mysterious, a little depressing, and they want to finish exploring as soon as possible and leave this infiltrating place.

"Master Zhao." After Li Yin glanced at the giant hand a few times, he also pointed to a not-so-obvious stone ridge above the giant hand, on which there was a ghost statue, "That ghost ancestor said that the passage is behind this statue. ”

'Bang' The fire flickered, and the two people in the team also found that there was a swarthy hole behind the statue above their heads, which was similar in size to life, according to the place Li Yin pointed out.

There's not much to say.

One of them climbed the stone ridge, then took the torch and lit the entrance to the cave, and then, while guarding against any dirt in it, he picked up the rest of the people and walked slowly towards the passage that looked like a bomb shelter.

Also deep into the cave, about 100 meters.

The passage is getting wider and wider, and there are many puddles on the ground, but the water in this pit is a little cold to the bone, and everyone accidentally steps into it, just like stepping into an ice pool in winter, and the soles of their feet are numb from the cold.

Also at this time.

The person leading the way in front of him was walking and walking, as if the soles of his feet were empty, and just a frightened roar came, and his body suddenly slammed, and the whole person fell into a puddle of water, as if he had been pulled into it by something.

"There are dark pits, big guys, be careful!" The people nearby roared vigilantly, lit two more torches, and some people took out magic weapons and Dao talismans.

"Master Zhao, I'll take a look."

The goatee next to Zhao Zhou also saw that the situation was wrong, and he also wanted to behave in front of Zhao Zhou, tapping the ground with his toes, like a martial arts master, stepping on the rocks next to the nearby puddle, and a few longitudinal steps came to the edge of the dark Tan twenty or thirty meters away.

At the same time, he also leaned over to see if he could save his companion who had fallen into a puddle, only to find a blister in the water, accompanied by blood gushing, and a mouth the size of a basin biting at him!

"What is this...."

Also exploded in the goatee's heart, and when he wanted to retreat reflexively, Zhao Zhou took a leap of steps, pinched a cannon hammer, and directly shook the nearly three-meter-long strange fish out of the water and fell under the light of the fire.

"Thank you, Master Zhao...."The goatee took a long breath, and after seeing that the head of the strange fish had a big hole rotten and there was no sound, he stopped his steps to escape.

Zhao Zhou didn't pay attention to him, but looked at the strange fish with everyone who was also frightened and surprised, and found that the strange fish's mouth was full of dense barbed fangs, like a fish hook, and it was full of minced meat, especially in its throat, and the person who fell into the water before could be seen beyond recognition, with bones exposed on his head, and brains flowing out of the fish's mouth.

However, it was not that Zhao Zhou had shocked this person to death, but that he had been squeezed and suffocated to death when he was swallowed by this strange fish.

"What kind of strange fish is this?" There was a lot of discussion, and some people even took out a dagger, cut off a piece of fish, and put it in a porcelain vase for preservation.

"Alas...."Some people looked at the dead companion in the fish's mouth, and sighed in their hearts, "A few people died just now, when is it a head...."

These people sighed, not pity their dead companions, but felt that if one more person died, there would be one less person to explore the way, and they would be more dangerous.

It was also at this time that Li Yin saw that Zhao Zhou had finished looking at the strange fish, and he didn't care about the people who had their own thoughts, and then pointed to the direction of the cave in front of him and said, "Master Zhao, go a little further ahead, there is a puddle in the center of the water and dive down, and there is a layer of steps in the water that can lead to a cave."

"Yes." Zhao Zhou replied, and looked at the people who were a little timid nearby, "I don't know how many of these strange fish there are below." Be careful, masters. ”

The meaning of Zhao Zhou's words is very clear, let the masters take the first step, and when he dives down first, these people ran away, and they had to chase them one by one.

"Master Zhao, don't worry!" Everyone glanced at each other, and after seeing Goatee take out a boning knife from his arms, he also reluctantly bowed his hand to Zhao Zhou, took out some blades, and then tied the burden to death, ready to enter the water. And most of their baggage is made of waterproof animal leather, which prevents all kinds of crisis situations and spoils their own eating guys.

Puff –

also followed everyone to the front 100 meters, and after killing a few strange fish.

One of them came to the puddle that Li Yin said, checked it, looked under the water again, noticed that there were no strange fish nearby, greeted everyone, and then entered the water.

The rest of the crowd didn't say much and jumped into the puddle.

Zhao Zhou was not afraid, took a deep breath, let Li Yin follow his side, and dived into the puddle, and also saw that the few people who went into the water first seemed to have found the 'steps' and were stepping towards it step by step.

Seeing this, Zhao Zhou not only held the Qinghong Sword in one hand, but also pulled Li Yin beside him with the other, like a fish, on one side of his body, he followed behind everyone, and in a few seconds, he stepped on this underwater step, kicked a few meters, got out of this big pool, and came to a cave.

And this place is only hundreds of square meters, littered with rocks, and there is a passage in front of it, which is estimated to be the next road.

At the same time, when everyone came to the cave, they were also shivering with cold, twisting their clothes and sorting out their burdens to see if they were soaked.

Zhao Zhou shook his sleeves, threw off the water droplets, and put one hand on Li Yin's shoulder, and shook it, and the water droplets on his clothes also fell seventy-seven-eighty-eight.

"This person is good luck...."Everyone saw Zhao Zhou treating Li Yin so kindly, and they were envious in their hearts, but not a taste, and regretted that they had not followed Zhao Zhou closely.

Also under crankiness.

After a little tidying up, they continued their journey towards the cave.

Especially as they walked, they also noticed that the terrain here seemed to be going downward, because there was also water in the passage, which was flowing towards the other end of the passage.

'Bang la la'

After everyone walked for about ten minutes and replaced a few new torches, the passage became wider and wider, the sound of running water became louder and louder, the river channel became wider and wider, and the water flow became more rapid, so that everyone walked on both sides.

Not only that, but it is as if there is a lava hot spring underneath the passage, and from time to time hot steam erupts from the cracks in the stone of the passage.

There are two people who accidentally caught the road, and they were not killed by the demons and monsters, but they were steamed by the heat.

"There's not going to be a waterfall in front of here, is there? Or a hot spring at the bottom of the mountain? Some people speculate that they also liven up the atmosphere, and they don't want to smell the smell of the steamed skin and meat of their companions behind them.

It's just that I didn't expect that after everyone walked a hundred meters, although there was no magma in front of them, there was a platform that looked like the peak of a mountain cliff, and there was a waterfall in the center of the cliff, and there was no road.

However, when Li Yin saw this situation, he said to Zhao Zhou: "Master Zhao, the rest of the road is under the waterfall." And the waterfall has a pool, as long as you jump accurately, there is no problem, you can swim to the shore safely. At that time, it was almost to the place where the ghost ancestor was trapped, a place where thousands of coffins were trapped. ”

"It's not a long way off." When Zhao Zhou heard this, he was also facing the people who were standing on the edge of the cliff and waterfall, and their scalps were numb when they heard the words 'bad ground, trapped and dead': "Masters, please."

"Are you right?" a person hesitated a little about Li Yin's words, and just wanted to say something, Zhao Zhou took a step forward, lifted his body, and threw it towards the seventeen or eighteen-high cliff.

"Shake the morale of the army, and be punished." Zhao Zhou turned to look at everyone, and at the same time, as Zhao Zhou's words fell, there was a 'click', and the person just now was not smashed into the water by Zhao Zhou, but on the stone shore.

"Jump!" When the rest of the people saw this, they also clenched their fists, gritted their teeth, and jumped down with their eyes closed.

'Puff, puff....'

For a while, with the sound of entering the water, except for one or two people who jumped on the rocks at the bottom of the water and broke alive, the rest of the people also successfully jumped into the waterhole and surfaced, and they were all swimming towards the stone shore on the left, where there was a broken and twisted corpse, and a few corpses in the distance.

And Zhao Zhou saw that everyone had successfully fallen into the water, and he also saw the position where everyone had fallen safely without rocks just now, and jumped down with Li Yin.

'Puff'

After entering the water, Zhao Zhou swung his legs again, and after surfacing, under the surprise of everyone's wide eyes, he took Li Yin to tread the water and landed on the shore.

Such a strange scene of treading water also made everyone forget to sort out their clothes for a while, as well as the detection of those corpses, and even made several people subconsciously think that Zhao Zhou was really a fairy!

However, Zhao Zhou ignored everyone, because his eyes had long been attracted by the scene of another cliff in front of the rocky bank.

"Master Li, is this what you call a thousand coffins?" Zhao Zhou walked to the edge of the cliff, reflecting the light of the fire, and could vaguely see the bottom of this not too steep cliff, densely packed with coffins, not to mention more than a thousand, layer by layer.

"Exactly." After Li Yin came here, he also took the torch from the hands of others and glanced at it a few times, pondered for a while, and wanted to say something, but he glanced at Zhao Zhou a few times and didn't say anything.

"If you have something to say, you can say it." Zhao Zhou saw that he couldn't hide his embarrassed look, and he was also curious, so he motioned for him to say it.

And Li Yin thought about it, and this time he didn't say it directly, but lowered his voice and said: "Master Zhao, there are more than a thousand dead souls in front of you, all of whom have become evil ghosts in this evil place. But the ghost ancestor also figured out that the center of the Thousand Coffins Array was where the next intersection was. ”

Li Yin said, and faintly pointed to the corpses and said: "But if we go down now, plus this thousand coffins array, I am afraid that we will be like those predecessors, even if we don't die, we will be damaged by those evil ghosts." If you don't have the strength to climb the waterfall cliff, you'll be trapped here. Or like the ghost ancestor, the soldiers fled. ”

When Li Yin said this, he looked at the people behind him who were cleaning up their soaked clothes, pondered for a moment, and said in a lower voice: "But I have a way to drive away..."

"There is no intention to say more."

When Zhao Zhou saw the goatee coming, he also glanced at Li Yin, signaled that he knew, and looked at everyone again, and directly burst out with qi and blood, crossed the two of them, stepped in front of everyone in an instant, and waved with one hand, like an angry King Kong Buddha, and seemed to be blessed with the power of a dragon elephant, throwing everyone down one by one like ears of rice!

But there were mostly rotting coffins underneath, and with the sound of 'poof', everyone was rarely injured.

But when they got up from the sawdust and bones, looked at the coffins nearby, and the yin wind whistling in their ears, they knew that they had been thrown by Zhao Zhou in a bad place! I'm probably going to die here!

"Zhao Zhou!" Seeing this, everyone's eyes were split, but they also hurriedly played out their magic weapons, wanting to climb towards the top of the cliff to see if they could survive.

And with the desperation and roaring of the crowd.

After a few breaths, Li Yin, who had been staring at the bottom of the cliff, suddenly clasped his fists and said to Zhao Zhou: "Master Zhao, those ghosts are all rushing in their direction, let's do without further ado!"

"That's exactly what I mean." Zhao Zhou returned the salute, took out the charm given by the ninth uncle and pasted it on Li Yin's body, and took out the Tang Dynasty jade pendant and put it on his body, and then his footsteps did not stop, and he directly took Li Yin to step away from another cliff and rushed towards the center of the tomb.

I also came here in three or four breaths.

Zhao Zhou bent down and made a fist, and with a 'click', like a cannonball, he blew the ground of this black tide out of a deep depth, and the earth flew away, and several punches in a row directly opened a passage three or four meters deep down, and jumped in.

At the same time, a few people who had not yet been haunted by evil spirits also lost a few Dao talismans, tried their best, ran here, jumped down, and the goatee was also worthy of jumping in.

And when they came in, reflecting the torches that Li Yin had lit again, they also saw Zhao Zhou standing in this cave passage, and arched his hand towards them: "Masters, don't come unharmed."
