Chapter 25 Maoshan Taoist
Sure enough, as soon as the black sunglasses finished speaking, more than a dozen pairs of dirty big hands grabbed the jade bowl almost at the same time. The mob scrambled to claim the most valuable bowl for themselves.
Uncle Nine shouted: "Don't rob!" Stop it! Don't rob! ”
Originally, Uncle Nine was very prestigious in the hearts of these mobs, but these mobs were carried away by desire at the moment, frantically snatching the treasures in their bags, and even fought later, and the whole fishing boat began to shake violently, screaming and scolding, and the scene was very chaotic.
I suddenly understood the purpose of Black Sunglasses, it turned out that Black Sunglasses was just a small trick, and with a single sentence, it easily stimulated the greed in the hearts of these mobs, making them fight in the nest and weakening their own power.
We don't even have to do anything, we just need to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, which is a real bloodless battle.
I looked at Black Sunglasses with adoration, and his image in my mind suddenly became much taller.
Greed is the eternal weakness of human nature, and when greed prevails over reason, it will act madly.
Those treasures made these mobs all red-eyed, they are all the lowest beings in this society, and now the opportunity to turn over is in front of them, and no one can let go of this opportunity. Even if they risk their lives, they will not hesitate to do so.
At first, they just wanted to snatch the most precious jade bowl, but later, these people fell into a state of complete madness. They both wanted to kill each other, capture as much wealth as possible, and one less person could get a piece of the pie, so a bloody slaughter soon took place.
The mob at the head of the mob preemptively drew his knife, his eyes were red, and he slashed down the villagers who stood in front of him, and the blood splattered on the jade bowl, reflecting some demonic beauty.
The mob who made the first move had ecstasy in his eyes, and he reached out to grab the jade bowl, but the other two people next to him roared, and they all drew their knives and pounced, slashing into a ball with the mob in the lead.
Thump! Thump!
There were screams of people falling into the water as blood stained the red deck and slowly dripped down the edge of the deck into the river.
The ugliness of human nature is vividly interpreted by this mob, and we don't want to look at their ugly faces anymore. Although I am not a cold-blooded animal, I am indescribably happy in my heart at the moment, in the words of Black Sunglasses, these people deserve to die, and it is not a pity to die.
What's even more ridiculous is that the mob who was originally responsible for detaining those little policemen finally couldn't bear it, for fear that they would be late and wouldn't be able to get anything. So he left the little policemen, jumped on the fishing boat, and suddenly sailed over to join the warband.
"This bunch of garbage!" Uncle Nine shook the hem of his clothes and pulled out a colorful token from his waist, which was full of strange runes.
I saw Uncle Nine constantly waving the token, and there were words in his mouth.
A thick fog suddenly rose on the icy river, and then a frightening scene appeared. Countless river drifts emerged from the water, standing in the water like wooden stakes, and the faces of those people took on a terrible dead gray.
I opened my mouth wide in horror, and the sight was almost the same as that night at the West Moon Pier.
Black Sunglasses looked at the ninth uncle, with a strange look in his eyes, and whispered to himself: "I actually met Maoshan Taoist here!" ”
"Maoshan Taoist?" I asked.
Black Sunglasses didn't explain too much, and only said: "This kind of soul control Dao technique must be a branch of Maoshan Technique!" ”
The scene was terrifying, and hundreds of river drifters suddenly appeared in the waterhole, staring lifelessly at the mob vying for treasures. People were all frightened, and subconsciously stopped fighting.
"Ghosts! Hell! Someone screamed and swam desperately to the side of the boat.
But it was too late, and the river drifters in the water suddenly stretched out their arms, and the hands of countless white dead people clung to those who were struggling to escape. More than a dozen sturdy men were unable to move, and in the midst of a terrible howl, the dead bodies dragged them slowly into the water.
The fog cleared, leaving nothing on the surface of the river, as if nothing had happened.
I shivered, looked at Uncle Nine with deep fear, and said secretly in my heart: "Fortunately, I didn't provoke this guy just now!" ”
There were also a few villagers standing on the boat, who immediately dropped their weapons, immediately knelt down in unison, and kowtowed to Uncle Jiu: "Uncle Jiu spares his life!" Uncle Nine, spare your life! ”
In the midst of the chaos, Black Sunglasses urged us to get out of the place, the perfect time for us to escape from the predicament and danger.
We were about to turn around and leave, when Lian Mingche suddenly grabbed my hand from behind: "Wait, did you hear anything?" ”
I shuddered: "Don't be surprised, people are scary and scared to death!" ”
"Don't speak!" Lian Mingche gestured, and after a few seconds, he pointed to the ancient corpse lying in the coffin: "It seems to have come from the body of the ancient corpse!" ”
"Won't it?" I looked at Lian Mingche in disbelief, then leaned down and put my ear to the stomach of the ancient corpse. At this time, I heard a strange sound from the ancient corpse.
I was startled, quickly stood up, and blurted out, "He has something in his stomach!" ”
At this moment, the ancient corpse's stomach had quickly bulged a small bag.
I looked at Lian Mingche a little nervously: "What is in his body?" Could it be those bugs that control corpses? ”
Ever since the last time I saw the terrifying corpse control bug at the police station, I have been left with a serious psychological shadow. Now whenever I see that reptilian thing, I feel inexplicably terrified and disgusted.
The pouch moved rapidly, and soon reached the throat of the ancient corpse. Before we could react, the ancient corpse suddenly opened its mouth, and a strange mass suddenly erupted from the ancient corpse's mouth, so frightened that we almost fell off the bronze chain.
We settled down and looked back into the coffin.
I saw that the ancient corpse was still lying quietly in the coffin, and a strangely shaped blue-purple flower emerged from the mouth of the ancient corpse. The strange flower was about the size of a fist, and it was blue and purple all over, blooming layer by layer. Soon it became the size of a basin, covering the face of the ancient corpse.
Curious, we craned our necks over and looked at the strange flower with bated breath.
The petals of the strange flower have seven layers, and when fully bloomed, it looks like a dazzling lotus platform. In the center of this red lotus platform, the light blue flower core resembles a clenched fist. As the petals opened, the pale blue fist seemed to slowly loosen. Then we were surprised to find that in the palm of this fist, a delicate and small wooden box was placed.
It's so strange that an ancient corpse of an unknown year and month actually hides such a strange flower. What is the origin of this strange flower? Why is it hidden in the body of an ancient corpse? After all these years, what nutrients did it absorb to survive? Why does this demon flower bloom after the coffin is opened? There are many wonders in the world, and even if we collect all the knowledge and experience of the three of us, we can't tell the origin of this strange flower.
Of course, we are not more interested in this strange flower, but in the wooden box. Why is there such a wooden box wrapped in the core of the strange flower? What's the secret in this?
I licked my dry lips and slowly reached for the wooden box in the center of the core.
The wooden box glowed faintly, and as soon as my fingertips touched the lid, I could still feel a slight chill coming from the top of the box, even through the tactical gloves.
My heart was pounding, and I was nervous about it coming out of my throat.
Just as I was about to pick up the wooden box, I heard a thud, and a cloud of dark purple mist powder suddenly erupted from it. I couldn't dodge it, I was sprayed squarely, and I was covered in pollen. Even Ming Che and Black Sunglasses couldn't dodge, and their hair and eyebrows were covered with powder.
I couldn't help but sneeze a few times and rub my nose, not to mention, the smell of this pollen was not very bad, and even a little strange, I couldn't help but sniff two more sips.
Black sunglasses patted the powder on his clothes and said: "You are too careless, fortunately this is not a hidden weapon poison arrow, otherwise you would have confessed all of them here even if you have ten lives!" ”
Although the black sunglasses didn't reprimand me harshly, I still felt my cheeks burn, and I was really impulsive just now. If the person who was buried had a hidden arrow in the flower core or under the wooden box, then I am afraid that I would have been dead on the spot. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
"Did you get it?" Lian Mingche asked me.
I spread out my palm, and the delicate little wooden box was lying in the palm of my hand. A closer look at this small box reveals that the workmanship of this thing is really exquisite. Right here; Nearly 10 small reliefs are carved on the two-inch wooden box, and it is difficult to see the contents of these reliefs even if you are close to the naked eye, and it is estimated that you need a professional machine to see them clearly.
On the top of the wooden box is carved a very familiar Hydra pattern, around which there are also some mysterious words the size of rice grains, which we can't understand.
On the side of the box is a small lock, the head of which is made of pure gold and is inlaid with a small opal. From the outside, this wooden box looks a lot like a beautifully shaped, antique women's makeup box.
