Chapter 80: Tomb Robbery Contest (1)
The husband sang and the wife followed, Xiaomu went to rob the tomb, and the sea lady couldn't do without him, and took the two children to sleep all the way.
The team walked for seven days and seven nights, and stayed overnight. Xiao Mu deliberately chose to live in the cemetery, practice the courage of the group, and take turns telling ghost stories at night, teaching various knowledge about tomb robbery, as well as the dangers that may occur in the ancient tomb.
After the White Deer Plain, Xiaomu had no time to go up to the plateau and worship from afar. Outside the city of Xi'an, along the Weishui to Xianyang County. According to the clues provided by Grandpa Heitu, the tomb of the Tang Dynasty is under the small hill behind the Guandi Temple.
It was night, coinciding with the Mid-Autumn Festival, the bright moon was hanging high, and it was a good time to rob tombs.
The hill is the sealed soil of the tomb, and Xiaomu found the trace of Brother Wolf - there are more than a dozen mules and horses at the bottom of the mountain, waiting to load the treasure, and an offspring is letting off steam. Grandpa Heitu set the rules, both sides dug their own, the well water did not interfere with the river water, and the victory in front of the coffin was to meet the teacher. This large tomb, the tomb robbery village has pondered for several generations, but has not found the tomb crossing. Brother Wolf used the method of punching holes in the top, hoping to drill directly from the top of the dungeon.
Xiao Mu avoided the hole that Brother Wolf had punched and looked for a place to start on the other side of the grave. By the full moon of August 15, he took out a long wooden tool, which seemed to be a shovel, but the shovel head was strange, not the usual flat, but semi-cylindrical, more like a murderous "pipe insert" - the shovel clamp was two inches wide and one foot long, made of extremely hard pig iron, and one end of the shovel was sharpened.
This is a tool made by Xiaomu himself, which has gone through nearly 20 processes such as billet making, calcination, heat treatment, molding, and sharpening......
He plunged the shovel into the grave, easily two feet deeper, and pulled it out again, and the shovel was covered with dirt. The distribution of soil layers can be clearly seen, including ancient filling, sandy soil in the past 100 years, rhizomes of barren grass vegetation, and even small animal bones.
Xiao Mu gave this tomb robbery tool a crepe name - Luoyang shovel.
"Luoyang relatives and friends ask each other, a heart of ice is digging graves."
He changed Wang Changling's poems without authorization, and was complacent about his invention. Aren't Westerners all kinds of tricks and tricks? Qin Beiyang called it "Sainz". But when it comes to the "Sainz" of tomb robbery, it is still the most powerful Chinese.
Using a Luoyang shovel to explore several sites, Xiaomu analyzed the soil layer and decided to go down from the northwest corner of the mound. He beckoned the group up, and each of them dug with his tools. The team is full of young men, digging pits without physical strength, just like a rat born to make a hole, in less than an hour, the hole has been ten feet deep. Xiao Mu instructed everyone to cooperate, three people climbed to the bottom of the cave to dig, three people carried the soil in the middle, three people set up a reel on top of it, dumped the soil on the grave, and three people stood up to watch the wind. The consumption of digging underground is the largest, and the people above must take turns to replace it, which improves the efficiency a lot.
Finally, the shovel hit the hard brick.
Xiao Mu jumped down, and it was already two feet down the mountain, almost the location of the underground palace. He cleaned the bricks with a brush and smashed them down with a hammer himself. The green bricks shattered, revealing the holes, and the smell of decaying tombs rose......
He lit a torch and tried it down, first extinguishing and then burning, indicating that oxygen had entered. He instructed everyone to cover their mouths and noses with wet towels, and according to the plan, seven bold ones followed him, and the other three guarded the holes in the underground palace were ready to be answered, and the remaining two guarded the exit of the robbery hole above the tomb.
As for the ama and her two children, they spent the night in the Guandi Temple.
The descendants relied on their breathing, step by step, stepping on their shadows, and came to the underground palace of the Tang Dynasty tomb.
Xiaomu raised the torch, and before he could see the murals on the four walls, he stepped on two corpses......
If you look closely, it's the fellows of the tomb robber village, Brother Wolf's guys - the shoulders are bare, and the heads are gone!
Faced with the headless corpses in the pool of blood, there was an uproar in Xiaomu's team. In the depths of the dark dungeon, there was a scream of ghosts crying wolves......
Xiaomu crossed out of the Luoyang shovel, so that the big guy should not panic, and use torches and horse lanterns to shine in unison.
They saw a woman.
With dark skin, a mantle, a bulging eye, fangs growing out of his mouth, and a man's arm, like a sheep's bone stick, he put it in his mouth and tossed and chewed it......
Not a woman, but a female ghost.
"The corpse has changed! Brother Xiaomu! ”
Someone was screaming behind him, and was about to climb up the thief hole to escape, but Xiao Mu said: "Don't be afraid, this is not a corpse, have you ever seen such a big corpse?" ”
Sure enough, the female ghost in front of her is larger than ordinary people, at least one foot tall, her breasts are bigger than a person's head, and her fingers are thicker than a child's arms. The corpse in the coffin will swell and will not grow to this extent. The firelight illuminates the female ghost's feet, but there are dozens of baby-like imps, holding her toes and playing. Like female ghosts, they gnaw on the corpses of tomb robbers, digging open people's chests, and devouring hearts, livers, spleens and lungs.
There are two or three surviving tomb robbers left, using shovels and swords to resist the female ghosts. But as soon as the female ghost slapped down, all the swords were broken, and when the slap came down again, Tufuzi's skull shattered......
Brother Wolf is still alive.
He had a box cannon in his hand, and first shot the female ghost in the chest several times, hitting several holes. He shot at the imps again, and beat them to tears. This completely angered the female ghost, and she grabbed Brother Wolf's calf at once.
Brother Wolf saw that there was a group of people in the dungeon, and the torches lit up Xiaomu's face.
"Xiaomu, get me out!"
He cried out hoarsely for help, Xiao Mu looked into his desperate eyes, but remembered that when he was a child, he was pushed down in a cemetery by Brother Wolf, and he took off his pants from behind......
Xiao Mu made a lip gesture at Brother Wolf: "Go to death!" ”
Although he didn't make any sound, Brother Wolf understood what he meant. He had no chance of being saved, and his lower body was swallowed into the mouth of the female ghost and bitten alive from the waist. Brother Wolf relied on his hands and dragged his large intestine to crawl a few steps in the dungeon, and was caught by a group of imps and ate it. For a moment, all he was left with was a pile of torn bones.
Brother Wolf's team was wiped out......
Tomb robbers are in the business of licking blood from the edge of a knife and pinning their heads to the waistband of their trousers, and such an ending is also the norm, since they have done this business, they must have such an awareness.
The female ghost saw Kogi.
Her gaze was not fierce, facing Xiao Mu and the descendants around him, opening her arms to hold the child. And the little ghosts around her climbed up to her thighs, waist, and even bit her nipples.
This time, Xiao Mu did not run away, but remained in place. He saw the mural of the underground palace - there was a solemn Buddha Shizun, with a kind expression on the lotus seat, and countless heavenly soldiers and generals guarded him. A little ghost was held under the bowl by the Buddha, and stretched out his little hand to call out for help. There is a tall female ghost, leading a horde of imps, trying to uncover the bowl to rescue the child, but in vain......
The female ghosts and imps in the mural are the same as the monsters in front of them.
"Devil Mother God!"
