"Jiahong, don't look for it, let's go." Long Fifteen, who had just gone out, shouted.

Hearing this, Jia Hong walked out and saw Long Fifteen, his hand dripping blood as if the faucet was not turned off, "Brother Long, what's wrong with your hand?" ”

"It's nothing, it's a trivial matter, I've found it, let's go first."

Long Fifteen and Jia Hong went to the cave first, and Jia Hong treated Long Fifteen's wounds, and Jia Hong was proficient in medical treatment. After a while, my master and I got rid of the mountain people and joined up in the cave, which was the place we had agreed with beforehand.

"Brother Fifteen, what's wrong with you? How did it hurt like this? I asked.

"There are hidden masters in this mountain, and I used one finger to change this drawing." Long Fifteen recounted what had just happened to him.

"Without further ado, Bayi, blow the whistle and call the zodiac chief to come and gather."

I felt my whistle from my pocket, and "woo~woo~woo~" three distant whines came out.

The four of them were walking in the middle of the mountain, "Zodiac chief, here, they are whistling and gathering." Binglan said.

"Come on, let's go."

Soon, the zodiac chiefs arrived. The first thing everyone noticed was Long Fifteen's severed finger, and hurriedly asked what happened. Long 15 recounted it in detail.

"I went into a room, and there was a very powerful old woman in it, and her movements were so sharp that I could not make a single move under her hands, and I had a finger cut off, and I used my dagger. Later, the old woman gave me a copy of the drawings, which I haven't even opened yet, and I don't know if it's true or not. ”

"It's okay if you're fine, how is your wound?"

"Don't get in the way, Jia Hong has already taken care of it for me, now let's take a look at the contents on the kraft paper first."

"It's okay, I also got a piece of brown paper and a book here, Ding Bai, come and translate."

Ding Bai walked over, "Let's take a look at the book in Brother Long's hand first." ”

Long Fifteen took it out, pulled off the rubber band, and flattened the paper. There is still a title on the paper, a picture in the middle, and a three and a four in the lower right corner.

The picture is pitch black, large and small eyes, free bodies, white people, black scenery and red blood constitute an extremely soulful painting.

"These small seals are the sketches of the second layer of the mausoleum, and the lower right corner is the third volume." Ding Bai said.

Then we opened the drawings in the hand of the zodiac chief, this is the fourth of the four books of vellum, and there is only one title, one picture, and then four/four, and there is nothing else.

The picture shows a coffin, the coffin is very huge, I don't know how big it is, anyway, it looks bigger than the average coffin from the paper, and the carving craftsmanship is very superb.

"It's a three-story sketch of the mausoleum."

"According to what, the fourth drawing should be the sketch of the second layer, but the old village chief clearly said that there are four layers of mausoleum, why is there only four pieces of brown paper?" Zodiac said.

"Could it be that the fourth layer is not written? Or is there no fourth layer? Long Fifteen said.

"Who's right? Isn't there another book? Look at that book. The master said.

Ding Bai opened the book, what was written on it was not a small seal, it was a modern text, it should be translated and written by later generations, so that the authenticity could not be verified.

The content of the book is roughly as follows: "The first page is written by Hu Ruishan. Then the text: In the twelfth year of the Ming Dynasty, in order to avoid pursuit, the people who repaired the tomb were hidden in the mountains, only twelve male carvers, eighteen male wallbuilders, seven female servants, three palace maids, a total of forty people, survived for ten years, seven men and two women died, but nineteen healthy boys and eleven girls were born, and the heirs were taught not to go out of the mountain, and they lived for another ten years, and ten old people died, but fortunately, the heirs were strong and gave birth to fifty new babies. ”

"A hundred years later, when I heard that the dynasty had changed in the world, it was the Qing Dynasty, and the relatives discussed whether they could go out to have a look, so they sent fifty young male babies and fifty female babies.

After the rapid development of reproduction, there were problems such as uneven distribution of land, imbalance between men and women, lack of food, lack of water, etc., and the leaders who occupied the mountains as kings and demarcated the boundaries of the land were divided into Hushan, Quanshan, Lingshan, Shushan, Jinshan, etc. The major tribes are fighting each other, and there is no longer the peace of a hundred years ago. ”

"After hearing that the Qing Dynasty was dead, the leaders discussed sending young people to the outside world to see, the major tribes jointly sent a thousand people, and then came back about 46 people, in short, less than 50 people, I am one of them, this expedition has caused the major tribes to decline a lot, leaving behind are empty nesters, young people and young girls are not much left, reproduction has been declining, and now the rest is almost extinct, it seems that God does not want us to live."

"Hu Ruishan, 1938."

The book is over, not so much a book as an autobiographical history, and the writing is worrying.

"Now that we have three volumes of drawings, I think it's imperative to find a second one." The zodiac chief spread out the map, and pointed his finger on the map as he spoke, "We have already been to this and here, and there is still this place that we have not been to, and we will go in and grab it directly this time, and we can't delay any longer." Huang Daochang said.

"Then now, what about the old woman with strong martial arts in Long Fifteen's mouth?" The master asked.

"It's a nuisance, too, and if she follows us, she'll be in trouble." The zodiac chief looked at Long Fifteen, "Fifteen brothers, this time I will avenge you first, we must kill this old woman first." ”

"Come here, this way, let's do this first, then this, that, understand?" Zodiac said.

I said, "Okay, but let's do it tomorrow, the sun is going down, let's set up camp and make a fire."

Nothing was said all night.

The sun leaped over the mountains, the dazzling light shone into the mountains, and our group had already packed our bags and were ready to meet the old woman, the people in the fields were already working, the birds in the trees were creaking, Long Fifteen had hidden his dagger in the palm of his hand, and the shotgun was loaded with bullets.

We snuck back to this village, and Long Fifteen pointed to a larger house, because there was no adjective to describe the houses here, only that this one was bigger, this one was smaller, and this one was more dilapidated.

The old woman's house can be said to be the largest around, there is a fence outside the door, and the windows are also tightly covered with some black cloth, and you can't see through the inside from the outside, Jia Hong carefully crouched under the east window, Long 15 has climbed to the roof, the zodiac chief also took out his green blade and stood on the left side in front of the door, Yi Bing Ding surrounded the house, I and the master, the two who don't know martial arts, stood far away, and I was responsible for handing the master some stones or branches that were thrown easily.

Jia Hong took out a bamboo pipe and quietly blew the smoke into the crack of the window.

After a cup of tea, in just a moment, the zodiac kicked the door violently, and rushed in with a big sword in his hand.

Long Fifteen directly broke the roof and jumped in, holding a dagger to get a headshot.

Jia Hong also tore the black cloth from the window and jumped forward.

Yi Bing Ding also rushed in, and the master and I were outside to control the wind, if they couldn't stand it, we would run, and the ghost would go to give them long-distance support! I winked at my master.

"Strange, why is there no one?" Long Fifteen and Huang Daochang glanced at each other.

Jia Hong also walked out, "There is no one in this room either. ”

Then the six of them looked at the room covered with a black cloth, "Go, whoever lifts the cloth, the old woman should be inside." ”

Everyone didn't move, most afraid that the air would suddenly be quiet, but Jia Hong spoke first: "What are you afraid of, I don't know the drug I prepared?" Dragons have to be stunned by me for three days. Then he went and lifted the black cloth.

Jia Hong jumped back, scaring everyone a few, and the zodiac chief almost slashed Jia Hong's head with a sword, "It's okay, that old woman is sleeping dead in it." ”

The crowd crowded into the room, and the six men surrounded the old woman, and suddenly there was no place to stay, and she stood shoulder to shoulder.

"Chop off your hands or your feet first?"

"It's too cruel, just cut her arteries!"

"She cut off my fingers and eyes without blinking, and she must be divided into five horses!"

"Just a bullet, this power will ensure that her body is incomplete!"

Huang Daochang raised his hand and said, "Don't you notice that something is wrong?" The only sound in this room was the breathing of the six of us. ”

Everyone fell silent for a moment, and the zodiac stretched out his hand to stop in her nostrils, then pinched her pulse with his hand, and pressed it on her chest, "Indeed, she is dead." ”

"Damn, she's cheap for her like this, didn't she still bounce around yesterday!" Long Fifteen said.

"How did you die? My smoke can't poison people to death, and I'll be dizzy for three days at most! ”

"Don't rule out this possibility, forget it, everyone is dead, don't move her, after all, the dead are big, search the room, such a master, he won't be so poor that he will be completely poor." Zodiac said.

I stayed outside with the master for a long time, and I didn't see them come out, and I didn't see the sound of fighting, "Master, they won't be ** anymore, right?!" ”

"What do you think! The mind is so dirty, just go in and take a look. ”

When I walked into the door, I saw a group of people rummaging through boxes and cabinets, "What are you doing?" Didn't you come to assassinate? ”

"The old woman is dead, and she's rummaging through her baby, so you two come in and help." I don't know who answered me.

My eyes, they were so sharp, I pointed to the floor in the corner of the wall, "There's a secret passage," and then I went over and turned the plank up, revealing a stone staircase that led to the bottomless, dark underground.

The crowd immediately gathered around, "Who will go down first?" ”

"You go first when you find it!"

"I'm not lean, I'm cowardly."

Long Fifteen lit a torch and handed it to me, but I was still in a daze, so he pushed me down, and the group squeezed me forward from behind.

I held up the torch and cursed in my heart, "A group of old men are so afraid of death, it is better for you to die than for me to die, I am still so young." ”

The stairs had already been lowered, and in front of me was a room in the extreme cold, and the sight was black from the torches, and the fragrance of the earth was inhaled into the nasal cavity. Sure enough, there were still torches on the wall, and the old woman came down to see things.

I passed the fire on the torch on the wall, and after a while, all four fires on the wall were lit for me, and the fire lit up the whole hole, the hole was very high, and in the middle there was a statue of 8 meters high, I don't know the name, and there was a futon on the ground, incense, kerosene lamp, and a four-legged table, how to describe it? I'm short on words, and I have nothing to say.
