Chapter 16: Eight Coffins Carry Corpses
The bridge was very long, leading to the opposite cliff several hundred meters from itself. And under the bridge, there is an endless underground river!
The river was flowing slowly, and the surface of the water was fairly clear, but the moisture it brought with us made us feel cold, which made our movements a little slow.
"Damn, why is it so cold all of a sudden." The fat man complained, and at the same time put his foot on the chain bridge and stepped on it, "The plank is quite strong, come up, Wang Zhen, it can accommodate two people to pass at the same time." ”
I carefully climbed the foot tower, and the bridge suddenly shook, but it was not very shaky, and it was relatively stable. But the fat man walked in front of me and made me feel extremely uneasy, his weight was like a pile driver, he shook sharply in one step, and shook again and again, and almost saw me fall directly, which made me scared. That's why I didn't dare to play Pirate Ship later.
I tried not to pay attention to it as much as I could, or it would make me more nervous, so I turned my eyes to the surface of the underground river. As an "archaeology" enthusiast, I'm still interested in seeing the river in the underworld.
But soon, I realized that something was wrong with the underground river, because I saw that there seemed to be something under the river, square, red. Looking again, there are four on each side of the bridge, on the left and right sides, and it seems that they are arranged in order.
I cast the light of the flashlight at the thing, and by the faint light, I could barely but surely see that it was a coffin!
"Bustard!" I hurriedly stopped the fat man: "Look at the bottom of the river!" ”
The fat man looked in the direction of my flashlight, and was also startled, with a shocked face: "Damn, isn't that a coffin?"
"That's right, it's a wooden coffin, if I'm not mistaken, it should be rosewood."
"Wooden? Wood is less dense than water, so it is reasonable that it will float on the surface of the river. ”
"Look again." I pointed with my finger, "You see, the four corners of each coffin are chained by chains, and you can't drag it up. ”
The fat man was stunned.
Then he immediately became a little scared: "Wang Zhen, let's go quickly, this thing is weird, don't take a second look."
As he spoke, the fat man walked towards the end of the bridge, and after a few steps, suddenly there was a click under his feet, as if he had stepped on something.
Me: "What's wrong?"
Fat man: "It's nothing, it's mostly because the wood board is aging and hollow, and it can't stand stepping on ......"
Before he finished speaking, the chain at the head of the bridge suddenly snapped and broke!
The whole bridge went down in an instant!
"Bustard! Run forward! I quickly reacted, shouted, grabbed the chains on both sides of the bridge and ran forward.
It's hard to describe that feeling, because the bridge is falling down, and you are running forward, and anyone who has studied Newton's theorem in junior high school physics knows that it is a state of weightlessness. Because of this, the fat man and I couldn't run across the bridge in a short time.
The bridge was almost perpendicular to 60 degrees, and there was no way to run forward, so the fat man and I hurriedly grabbed the iron cable and fell down with the bridge.
Boom!
The chain bridge smashed against the cliff at the end of the bridge. The vibration from the collision made my hands tingle, but I held on to the chain and didn't fall into the river. The fat man also stepped on the iron rope with an arrow, grabbed it with his backhand, and almost fell off my head and smashed me.
"How's the bustard?"
"I think it's OK!" The fat man bowed his head and said to me.
When I looked up, the end of the bridge on the cliff was still at least a hundred meters away from us, and the planks on the iron cables had fallen to the ground, and it was almost impossible to find the pedals to climb on. I bowed my head, but fortunately there was a rocky shore not far from me, so I could land first.
I carefully slid down the rope, and the fat man followed suit, and it wasn't long before we both reached the rocky shore.
"What can I do about this?" The fat man asked as he gasped.
"Let's see if there are any exits to go through." I said. After speaking, I was about to look for an exit, when suddenly there was a pop next to my ear!
I heard the sound and looked, but I saw a large splash on the surface of the underground river, and a red thing floated up.
Then there were seven consecutive pops, and the iron cables that had been holding the coffins began to fall off, causing the remaining seven coffins to emerge in turn and float on the surface of the river.
", what kind of stance is this?" The fat man looked confused.
"Look!" I suddenly shouted. I saw that each coffin began to shake constantly, shaking very violently, and the surrounding water splashed continuously, and then, one by one, the coffin board was lifted open by a force, and a shriveled zongzi drilled out of it!
"Damn, it's eight coffins carrying corpses!"
The eight coffins in the fat man's mouth to carry the corpse is a rare formation in the tomb robbery, eight coffins, eight zongzi, are placed in the most vicious place in feng shui, once someone touches the mechanism, it will be released, the evil qi is very heavy, very evil!
Roar!
The dumplings roared with their heads up to the sky, their faces all wearing bronze masks, and they made the hoarse metallic sound of a cutter. Then a scene happened that I will never forget: a skinny zongzi about fifty or sixty meters away from me suddenly jumped up with an arrow step and jumped directly in my direction!
I didn't leave much time for myself to be surprised, so I hurriedly picked up the earthen shotgun behind my back, loaded it, pulled the trigger, and shot it at the snap!
This is a special bullet made by the Huo family's father, and the gunpowder is mixed with cinnabar, which can drive away evil spirits. The effect on this large zongzi is immediate.
The bullet flew towards the zongzi, and with a thud it passed through his head, and the zongzi fell directly backwards into the river due to inertia.
"Get one!"
The fat man also hurriedly took out his gun and fired several shots at the dumplings in a row, but unfortunately the marksmanship was too stinky and hit the coffin board.
"Bustard, don't fight blindly, bullets are limited!"
Before I finished speaking, the dumplings jumped towards the two of us, very agile, like a black mist scurrying around. At that speed, you can hardly see the outline, it feels like a blink of an eye, and you can see a black line in the distance, and then a black mist suddenly surges in front of you, condensing into the shape of zongzi!
I saw the dumpling looking at me with bared teeth, his eyes were rotten, and only a deeply sunken eye socket remained, and the bronze mask he was wearing was hideous, and the corners of his mouth were still dripping with disgusting white slime.
I immediately lifted the handle of the gun and slammed it a few meters away, followed by another shot that punched a hole in his head with a bang.
The fat man was not easy to deal with, and the remaining six zongzi were all pestering him left and right, and constantly approaching him.
I picked up the gun and snapped a few shots, but none of them hit the point. This time it was a lot more troublesome, a zongzi suddenly turned around, and then flashed in front of me in an instant, raised his hand and knocked over the gun in my hand, and then grabbed my neck directly with the other hand.
I could barely breathe for a moment, his hand was still strong even though it had been rotting for thousands of years, and the sharp claws almost cut my throat! It's the first time I've encountered such a domineering and evil zongzi!
I tried to break free, but to no avail, the hand was like a shackle that locked me firmly, and no matter how hard I struggled, I couldn't get rid of it.
"Wang Zhen!" The fat man shouted and wanted to rush over to save me, but he himself couldn't protect himself, and there were five zongzi around him.
The fat man didn't confront them, but went straight to it. kicked the zongzi in front of him with a big kick, and then raised the butt of the gun to use it as a stick to beat it around, looking like a crazy dog.
At this time, I also took advantage of the gap that the zongzi paid attention to, broke free, went over with a sliding shovel, picked up the gun that fell on the ground, and raised my hand to shoot it.
Rumble!
Due to the close distance, the power of the bullet was even more powerful, and it directly knocked off the head of the zongzi.
"Bustard! Hold your head! ”
I shouted at the fat man. Then he raised his gun and fired a shot at the pile of rice dumplings that were pressing on him. There was another bang, but fortunately the fat man was not injured, and the two or three zongzi that pressed on him were killed.
The fat man directly grabbed the few with both hands and threw them out like carrying chickens, then quickly got up, raised the gun again, and shot a shot at the head of a zongzi next to him, with a loud bang, and the head of the zongzi was blown to pieces.
There's one last one left!
After all, the zongzi is not a fuel-efficient lamp, it is directly a punch towards the fat man, that punch is bizarrely powerful, if the fat man is compared to a truck, then the brute force is a truck, directly hit his chest, and was shocked more than ten meters away.
The fat man rubbed against the ground for a few more meters, his clothes were torn, and after stopping, he coughed and spat out a mouthful of black blood.
I quickly turned my head and raised the muzzle of the gun to aim at the zongzi.
Rumble!
The zongzi fell down in response.
"Bustard!" I asked about his injuries.
He struggled to shake his hand at me, signaling that it was okay. Then he staggered up, with blood in his mouth, and said vaguely: "It's okay, don't worry about me, hurry up and find an exit." ”
The fat man staggered a few times, and the next steps became much more steady, I don't know if I was doing something wrong in my heart, I always felt that the fat man recovered quickly, and ordinary people were completely different. I looked at him suspiciously, knowing that he must be hiding some secret.
I didn't say anything more, and went to find my way next to the cliff. It didn't take long for me to notice a gap on the north side of the cliff that could accommodate a person!
I called the fat man, fortunately, the fat man's figure can barely pass, I turned on the flashlight and shone it inside, and the black one was gone, and I didn't know what was hidden in it.
After glancing at the fat man, I took the lead and walked sideways towards the gap, followed by the fat man, who leaned sideways and moved against the stone wall.
"Bustard." As I walked, I suddenly shouted at the fat man.
"Huh?"
"Be honest with me." I looked back at him earnestly, with an incomprehensible look in my eyes, "Are you a unicorn blood?" ”
