Chapter 42: Overlord Xuan
This palace is really too magnificent, can not be described with luxury, all kinds of decorative techniques, yellow tile glazed top, blue and white stone base, brilliant color paintings, gilded treasure top, is a rectangular palace of pure phoenix ornamentation, in front of the palace are respectively the kiss of the owl, the phoenix, the fox, the pig stone carving majestic and stands.
It's a pity that time is a bladeless sword, ruthless and real, such a huge dragon tower treasure hall still can't stand the measurement of time in the end, and after washing away the lead, it reveals its original face, which is the glory built by countless people with blood and life, and now it is just an underground mausoleum full of dust and rubble.
"Lao Cui, are those two eggs coffins or something, they look quite appetizing" Big Mouth held the statue of the pig with one hand, and swept vigilantly in the dungeon with a gun in the other, his eyes were green.
Even if it is me, I dare not say that I can be calm at this moment, there are too many valuable things inside, the tomb wall is inlaid with countless gold and jade gems, and the underground silt is full of golden things, flashing in the flashlight like a waterfall, I believe that more things are still lying quietly in the mud bottom, and there are corners and corners.
Big Mouth is so busy now that I don't know what to take, I can only smile bitterly, money is really a good thing, it can make people forget themselves.
"Brother Big Mouth, take a long-term view, gold is priceless and jade is priceless, have you seen those two egg coffins? The real baby is in there."
I glanced at the big mouth with disdain, even though the gold and silver cups are very valuable, but how much can you take away, it is better to pry open the two egg coffins happily, according to my estimate, any one of the things inside is priceless.
The ancients paid attention to treating death as life, and after their death, they wanted to continue the luxury of their lives, so the items used in their lives, even the maids, had to be taken away for them to enjoy in the unknown underground world, so the real treasures were carried with them. In fact, as everyone knows, the life they hope for is endless, after all, it is just a spiritual pursuit, and in the end, it is cheaper for me and Big Mouth.
Of course, the main reason for opening the coffin is because of Gu Yi, and almost all the places that can be found so far have been found, and not even a single hair of Gu Yi has been seen, so the coffin is the last position, and I hope to find some useful clues.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable Grandpa bless, two beautiful and kind sisters, Yu Guangrong just needs a little something, no matter how much he can't take away, I hope the two of you will be convenient, I will return it in the future, a little bit of it."
Big Mouth pretended to be religious, muttered a few words to the two ovoid coffins, and walked straight over.
I have become accustomed to the false seriousness of the big mouth, from the initial nausea to now being able to laugh, so I had to pretend that I didn't hear anything, and stepped forward to look at the two coffins, the shape is very special, I haven't seen it before, even if there is no record of this in the inverted bucket scripture. The egg coffin is like two eggs, and the color is about the same.
I really don't want to think about it anymore, no matter what shape it is, it's a coffin anyway, and no matter how exquisite the workmanship is, it also contains a few corpses that have long been decomposed, to put it bluntly, we are thieves, not to archaeology, so we don't need to think about it so much.
"Big mouth, pry away" My words carried a lot of grief and indignation, you didn't let me feel better, I won't make you comfortable, and even I thought about pulling the body out of the coffin and feeding it to the dogs.
"There are no taboos, the coffin is raised to make a fortune, the two sisters are offended" The big mouth muttered again, and danced with his hands, which reminded me of the great god of dancing in the Northeast.
Only then did he hold the sapper shovel and insert it into the gap of the oval coffin.
"No ......"
However, just at the moment when the big mouth was about to exert force, a dull and short voice sounded, this voice was not very bright, and it could even be said to be very low, only because it was too quiet in this tomb, so the low voice was unlimitedly elongated and amplified, like a person who was choked by the throat, roared in danger, and then fell silent again.
"Who?" I shouted at the same time as Big Mouth, and the voice was just that, and the silence of the tomb returned.
This roar really frightened me and Big Mouth, and Big Mouth dragged the sapper shovel towards me, and his face turned white in an instant. As I turned the flashlight, the muzzle of the gun turned to the place where the sound came from.
Two white flashlights pierced the dark curtain of the tomb. Where is the zenith of the burial chamber, criss-crossed between the carved beams and painted columns, a huge head covered with red hair is hanging low, close to the lower part of the head, there are three white things, it should also be hairy, like a king, and like three eyebrows, above the eyebrows is a reddish one-eyed half-open, it seems that this pore instantly enlarged thing hangs upside down on the zenith.
I don't know if it's a hallucination, I feel that the three eyebrows on the big head are twisting up little by little, just like people are going crazy after being angry, I guess the big mouth also found out that something was wrong, and after being stunned for a moment, he raised the gun and was about to shoot, but unfortunately it was still a step too late.
After listening to the big mouth, the whole person suddenly disappeared from me, so fast, so fast that I didn't even notice how it moved, and even I forgot to pull the trigger for a while, only to feel a black shadow flash in front of my eyes.
"Lao Cui, save ...... Save... I ......"
I didn't know that Big Mouth was suddenly taken there, and it was too late to shoot again, and it was possible to indiscriminately shoot Big Mouth, because after the black shadow flashed before my eyes, the huge head disappeared in its place. I could only hear the intermittent cries for help from the big mouth, and it was a little bit away.
At this time, my mind was in a mess, and it took less than two minutes from the time I didn't say a word to hearing the big mouth cry for help.
Now, I feel that I am so small and useless that I can't even see the whole picture of the enemy, and my brother around me has been taken away. And that word came out of Gu Yi's mouth, and now there is no doubt that Gu Yi is still alive, but I can't bring up the slightest bit of joy.
If I can't save them in a short time, they will still die, including me, and it is only a matter of time before they die.
In the quiet and strange burial chamber, I was the only one left to survive, as if I was being played by the monster that disappeared. I'm so annoyed and impatient, and I don't even know where to go to save Big Mouth and Gu Yi.
I sat down the ground along the ovoid coffin, laughing at myself, and kept saying that I would take care of Gu Yi for the rest of my life, and I would find a good mother-in-law for Dazui, but in fact, I am just a fish under the knife.
Sitting in the shade of the ground, I thought for a long time, whether the other party is a human or a ghost, or something specially raised to guard the tomb, since it is hiding in the tomb, it is very likely that this is its old nest, it is guarding its nest, guarding the corpse here, its owner.
"Since you don't let Lao Tzu live the rest of his life, Lao Tzu also makes your master immediately turn into a pile of bones and scum" I scolded secretly, and the nerves in my body immediately swelled to the extreme, which was a pleasure of revenge.
The pleasure was released to the extreme with the crisp sound of the eggshell falling to the ground, and all 72 bullets were fired into the oval coffin without any deviation, then 72, then 72, and then 72, and the two ovoid coffins were fired by me in a burst of rage, almost falling apart, and I was all shot with the bullets I carried. But my excitement has not yet passed, and my brother and woman cannot be exchanged for a few bones.
I picked up the sapper shovel that had fallen from my mouth, and cut it down indiscriminately on the elaborate openwork doors and windows of the burial chamber, and with the splashing of sawdust, I had collected piles of wood in one place, all of fine wood, even if it was rotten, it did not prevent it from loving fire.
"Shuangfei Mountain, to hell"
The fire that broke out in an instant, making a crackling sound, and the dancing flames burned bigger and bigger in my eyes.
"Don't you like to play with fire? I'll play with you enough."
While scolding vulgar words, I led the fire everywhere, here is basically all wooden structures, ear rooms, back rooms, warehouses, corridors, at this time have become my target for venting, less than half an hour, the original extremely luxurious Shuangfei Mountain Palace, has been as bright as day, only the long corridor is not hot.
I sat quietly on the head of the stone beast next to the corridor, admiring my masterpiece, silently reciting the names of Big Mouth and Gu Yi in my heart, and suddenly heard a whining sound behind me, very familiar, as if I had heard it somewhere. As I remembered, the sound was the one I heard at the mouth of the well, a bit like a woman's sobbing, and at the same time a very strong fragrance wafted into my nostrils.
Looking back violently, under the flickering firelight, an eight-clawed monster was lying opposite me, three whitewashed eyebrows almost twisted into one, and the originally half-open red one-eyed was bursting with angry light.
To say that it is not afraid is fake, because it is too big, so big that it is terrifying, and the five or six meters wide corridor is completely blocked by its body. Originally, there was a big mouth fighting side by side with me, and there was a brave man by my side, but now that I am alone in the face of this behemoth, my heart is really weak, and my legs are trembling without fighting.
What monsters? Spiders?
To be more precise, it should be the overlord mentioned in the inverted bucket scripture, a super-large Cancer spider that only spins silk and does not form webs, domesticated with the soul of a virgin girl, full of spirituality and extremely aggressive, especially on its first pair of chelicera, the chelicera are sharper than knives, and once the venom gland at the tip of the chelicera is injected into the human skin, it will be anesthetized instantly, and it will soon die if the amount is large.
It seems that Lao Tzu has met a strong opponent today.
