The text of the ghost lang
Wedge. Bone snake
I turned on my flashlight, looked at the white fog all around, and regretted a little in my heart, I shouldn't have been greedy for the road, and I missed the night's sleep, not even if I went the wrong way. It is imperative to find a way out as soon as possible.
Since I was eight years old, I have studied medicine with my master, and I am fifteen years old this year, and it is not once or twice that I have gone into the mountains to collect medicine, but I am really not familiar with this mountain road, and I have heard advice from people in the afternoon, saying that there is such a shortcut road, and I can cross the mountain in half a day's effort—because I was worried that my elderly grandmother at home had no one to take care of me, so I wanted to rush back as soon as possible, but I never thought about taking the wrong road, getting lost in these mountains, and encountering such a rare fog.
My parents are working in the provincial capital, I have lived in a mountain village with my grandmother since I was a child, when I was eight years old, the only old Chinese medicine doctor in the village, accepted as a disciple, usually follow the old Chinese medicine to study medicine, go into the mountains to collect medicine, the days are also leisurely, but the old Chinese medicine is now also old, the legs and feet are not very convenient, the task of collecting medicine on weekdays, it falls on me.
I looked at my watch, it was about seven o'clock in the evening, it was impossible to go out of the mountain tonight, and my only hope now was to be able to find a family to borrow for the night.
Suddenly, in the originally white mist, a dazzling white light crossed the sky and landed on the distant mountain, and immediately, I heard a huge roar in my ears—
Thundered...... Thundered......
"Thunder? It's going to rain? "I was stunned, this matter is in the late spring and early summer, the weather is fickle, it is going to rain, it is also a normal situation, it's just that I am miserable!
Before I could think of it, I heard a loud rumble in my ears, and then the raindrops of beans fell—and as the raindrops fell, the fog around me dissipated considerably, and my eyes opened up in an instant. I was busy opening the umbrella I was carrying, looking around for a place to hide from the rain, the rain was too heavy, and once it rained, I was afraid that the mountain road at night would be slippery and difficult to walk. Once you stumble and fall down the hill, you will break your bones and break your bones, and you will die at worst.
I thought to myself, while looking around, it happened that there was a flat hillside next to it, a large protruding stone, like a natural stone pavilion, I thought that I didn't expect to find people in this vicinity, so it was better to go under the stone to hide in the rain for the time being, than to stand in a daze in the rain.
While thinking, I carefully walked down the hillside, waiting to stand under the big rocks on the flat hillside, I breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately - this rain looks like it is going to fall for a while, once the mountain encounters a heavy rain, it will form a short flow of water, and the force of the impact from above is very large, if the rain is heavy enough, there is a possibility of washing people down the hillside.
I put away the umbrella, put it in the medicine basket on my back, and raised my hand to take a photo, suddenly, I was a little stunned, on the rock wall of the mountain, crawling some climbing vine plants, through the leaves, faintly saw blurred handwriting.
I was very curious, and I was busy taking out the medicine shovel and eradicating those climbing vine plants, and the stone wall revealed its original appearance, and sure enough, there were some vague handwriting, but it was too old to distinguish, and it looked like a pre-Qin bird seal, and I didn't recognize it.
What surprised me even more was that there was a swarthy hole on the stone wall, which allowed a person to bend over to enter and exit - I held a medicine shovel in one hand and a flashlight in the other, and I took a picture of it, and it was so dark that I couldn't see anything clearly.
Suddenly, at this moment, a thunderbolt flashed in the sky, the thickness of a bucket, with a purple electric light, and smashed the hillside, and my eyes lit up, and in a trance, a little golden rabbit flashed in front of me and broke into the dark hole.
Without giving me any time to think, the electric light dimmed, and my eyes darkened, and then a deafening thunder rang out—
I shuddered, and secretly sighed at the fierceness of the sky, but in my heart I was curious, where did that rabbit come from? The light of the flashlight was too dim to see the situation in the cave, I looked at the entrance of the cave, there was no fishy smell, there should be no beasts entrenched.
Moreover, since the rabbit dared to go in, there would be no danger in it - I have lived in the mountains for many years, and I still know a lot about this kind of small animals, and generally this kind of small animals are more sensitive to potential dangers.
I thought to myself as I held my flashlight and walked towards the entrance of the cave, holding the medicine shovel quietly just in case.
The entrance to the cave was not too deep, and the inside was much wider than the outside, and suddenly, a bright light came over, dazzling my eyes—in front of me, a skeleton, leaning on a coffin, with two empty eye sockets, staring at me coldly, with white teeth and a hideous smile.
Immediately, the lightning outside was annihilated, and the cave ** returned to darkness, but I couldn't help but shiver, and was busy holding a flashlight to shine, and sure enough, not far in front of me, there was a coffin horizontally, a skeleton that had decayed when I didn't know when, half-sitting and leaning on the side of the coffin, with an eerie cold air in the empty eye sockets.
On the ground, there were still some scattered white bones, as well as some broken porcelain pieces, I shivered excitedly, and immediately the vest was cold, and cold sweat broke out, but, out of curiosity, I still held my dim hand and took a photo-due to the age, most of the paint on the coffin was peeling, and it seemed to have dragon patterns faintly......
Dragon pattern? I was shocked in my heart, in ancient China, the dragon pattern symbolized the supremacy of the emperor, could it be that the owner of this coffin was actually a member of the royal family of a certain dynasty in front of him? However, this burial chamber is too simple to look like a royal mausoleum.
The lid of the coffin was pushed open halfway, and I knew in my heart that if I was sensible, I should leave this place as soon as possible, but I couldn't suppress my curiosity to see what the owner of the coffin really looked like.
I raised my hand and walked towards the coffin step by step, my hands trembled due to too much nervousness and fear, causing the flashlight to be unsteady and the light flickering......
Another bolt of lightning illuminated the tomb—a small golden rabbit flashed before my eyes in the intense white light......
After the lightning, it dimmed, not only did I have doubts in my heart, but for the first time, I suspected that it was a visual error caused by electric light, and people's eyes often cause some color errors under strong light, such as the rabbit, which may be white, but I see it as golden......
But this time I promise to be right, the rabbit is golden, and, in the bright light of the lightning, I can see clearly, the rabbit, running into the coffin - this is too unbelievable, a rabbit's nest, inside the coffin?
I fixed my mind and forcibly comforted myself, I didn't say anything, I was not afraid, wasn't it just a coffin and a corpse? A hundred years later, I'm not like this, what's there to be afraid of?
When I thought about it, I calmed down a lot, and with a dim flashlight, I cautiously walked to the coffin - inside the coffin, there was also a corpse, but it was old, and the corpse had long since decomposed into a white bone, and two dark eye sockets were staring at me like this.
People who have been dead for a long time, but I don't know why, I always feel that whether it is the half-seated skeleton outside the coffin or the corpse lying inside the coffin, their empty eye sockets always seem to stare at me, and the cold hairs on my body stand up one by one. I really wanted to get out of this place quickly, but I couldn't move my feet.
I could clearly hear my heartbeat, bang-bang-bang-it seemed to jump out of my mouth, the grave was small, narrow and depressing, partial, I didn't know what bear-hearted leopard gall I ate, and I leaned forward again, there was no rabbit in the coffin, and I knew where the rabbit had gone.
Hey...... What is this?
I took a picture with a flashlight, and the skeleton that had turned into white bones had a swarthy wrench on the phalanx of the thumb of my left hand.
"Would you like to take it out and have a look?" I asked myself in my heart, thought about it, thought about it again, and couldn't suppress my curiosity, but I was inexplicably nervous in my heart, and my heart was pounding hard.
I hesitated for a moment, but I bent down and reached out to touch it, but the thumb of the corpse was actually buckled inward, showing a state of clenching a fist, so that it was a little laborious to remove the wrench......
I was too nervous and didn't realize that a faint red mist, along with the broken phalanges, had been silently snorted along my nose and inhaled into my body.
The black and faint ring is a little heavy in the hand, I don't know what metal it is made of, and there are some strange patterns on the surface, I like it very much, and I say to myself: "Your old man is dead, it's useless to want this thing, just borrow me to play!" ”
Amitabha, I'm not a tomb robber, I'm just passing by by accident...... I picked it up! I know that even in the middle of nowhere, tomb robbing is still a despised practice, but I really like the ring with its strange pattern.
I have a strong desire to take it for myself—it seems that it was born to belong to me...... I don't know why, I have such a ridiculous idea.
I carefully hid the ring in my pocket, and when I moved, under the skeleton's finger bones, a tattered old book was revealed—I wondered in my heart, this corpse had turned into white bones, even if there were burial goods, unless it was gold, silver and jade, otherwise, I was afraid that it would have already rotted along with the corpse, why was there still an old book hidden here?
Anyway, I took the ring with me, so I didn't do it, I didn't do it, I bent over the coffin, I reached in and took the old book, and when I took out the old book, something seemed to sting me, I held up a flashlight and shone it, and suddenly my scalp began to tingle - what the hell is this?
I am a doctor, so I know the basic bones of the human body, and I can guarantee that no one's bones will grow like this......
The one that stabbed me on the white bones, in a vertebral state, connected in strings, from the spine, two rows of barbs protruded neatly, like human ribs, but naturally much smaller than human ribs. I didn't pay attention to it just now, all my attention was attracted by the wrench on the thumb of the corpse and the broken book, and now I raised the flashlight and looked closely, this strange bone, in a long bar, ran through the ribs of the corpse's chest, wrapped around the corpse's neck, and extended into the skull.
If I'm not misjudged, this should be some kind of snake bone? Thinking about it this way, I am even more scared in my heart, a snake that died in a coffin? How did the snake get into the coffin and wrap around the corpse?
I took a flashlight and shone it at the brains of the corpses, trying to see what was going on in the empty eye sockets of my brain, but the empty eye sockets were actually like a nightmare from the Nine Shadows City, staring at me so coldly, staring at me terrified......
Forget it, this snake is none of my business, I'd better not be nosy!
I was so frightened that I took a step back and looked at the tattered book in my hand with a flashlight.
I flipped through it with my hand, and inside, the dense small characters of the fly's head came into view, but the more I looked at it, the more frightened I became—this turned out to be an incomplete medical book, according to records, it was from Shennong's strange prescription.
I have been studying medicine with my master since I was eight years old, and it has been seven years since I was a little successful, but the strange prescription recorded in this green sac meridian supplement is too simple, it is really incredible, I was fascinated by it for a while, and I completely forgot that I was in the tomb.
A dazzling purple light, if it was a sharp sword, stabbed into the dark tomb, and I instinctively looked up - on the opposite wall, a huge black shadow pounced on me viciously.
I screamed in fright, and turned to run, but my feet tightened, and I seemed to have tripped over something viciously, and I instinctively looked down, and was suddenly frightened.
I don't know when, the snake that has turned into white bones actually wrapped around my feet, and the white bones of Sensen, like barbs, seem to strangle me to death, and what's even weirder is that the head of this snake is actually alive, really...... I don't know how to describe it, the snake's body has turned into white bones, but the snake's head is still in its original shape, not rotten at all.
I didn't dare to move, and looked at the strange dark blue triangular snake head, with a dim light, and pounced viciously at me.
I screamed, snapped, the flashlight fell to the ground, the electric light flashed, in the dark, my head suddenly dizzy, my body involuntarily fell softly, memory, only the snake that has turned into white bones, but the head remains in its original shape, with a dark blue strange snake head, spitting out a forked black letter, pounced on me.
…………
I don't know how long it took for me to wake up again, and when I opened my eyes, the faint sunlight was shining through the tomb, and less than a foot away from me, a skeleton stared at me coldly......
A cold sweat broke out on my back, and I only felt the unspeakable evil door, so I hurriedly got up from the ground, packed up the medicine basket, the medicine shovel, the umbrella, the flashlight and other things, and it was dawn outside? The sun came out, probably because of the sun, which dispelled the gloomy horror in the tomb, and I picked up the scroll of the green sac meridian from the ground, and carefully packed it up, but there was some amusement in my heart.
I actually slept in a grave with two skeletons for the night? I'm afraid that if I say it, no one will believe it. And that weird bone snake? Wasn't I bitten by a snake? How can it be okay?
I stood up with a slight tremble, and looked into the coffin again, the corpse that had turned into white bones, just lying quietly in the coffin, but the corpse was a very normal human skeleton, and it was not in the strange state of snake bones that I saw last night......
The bone snake is gone—is it all my hallucination? Come to think of it, yes, if I do get bitten by a snake, how can I die? These snakes that cling to corpses are extremely venomous, and I feel that there is nothing unusual about myself, but I am relieved.
It's just that there is an evil aura here, and it is not suitable to stay for a long time, so I took a deep breath, and was busy carrying the medicine basket on my back, and crawled out of the grave in a hurry.
Outside, sure enough, it had rained and the sky was clear, and the rising sun was shining golden, dispelling the darkness and evil spirit, I took a deep breath of the fresh air in the mountains, turned around, bowed three times to the swarthy hole, and prayed in a low voice: "Grandpa, please rest assured, I will take this book out, and I will definitely use this to save people, and I will never dare to do anything wrong, but I hope that Grandpa Zu will bless me......"
I thought that the master in the tomb was buried with a medical book, and he must be a master of the apricot forest, and he should be the ancestor of my generation of medical scholars.
Immediately, I pulled some climbing vines to cover up the entrance of the cave, these climbing plants are very vigorous, as long as they occupy a little bit of soil on the rock wall, they can multiply and spread, and it will not be long before these climbing vines will firmly cover the hole again.
