Chapter 642: Seafood Soup
The second master and my uncle didn't deal with each other, but his attitude towards Luo Youfang was quite normal, he nodded and said, "I was just about to talk about this." How do you know there's a coffin inside? When the burial sect went to the grave, you also went? ”
Luo Youfang shook his head: "I have not been very trusted in the Funeral Sect all these years, except for the underground palace of the old Huang family in the Northeast, I have not followed the other tombs." However, I have heard from the mercenaries of the Funeral Sect that they once went down to a tomb where there were such evil corpses, and every time the evil corpses appeared, there were three such coffins. ”
The second master asked him, "Are they talking about the Bohai Tomb?" ”
Luo Youfang: "No, it's another tomb, on the other side of the South China Sea." I think that since the nine tombs are all arranged by the first ancestor, all the sea tombs should be similar in structural details. ”
The second master nodded and said, "Actually, I have always suspected that there may have only been a coffin in the tomb, and there were no evil corpses. The corpses were put in by someone else. This underground palace should have been built in the Han Dynasty, but some of the costumes on the evil corpse only appeared in the Ming Dynasty. ”
I saw Liang Houzai rummaging through his backpack and taking out a document with the corners rolled up at the corners, and I raised my chin at him: "What is it?" ”
Liang Houzai: "Before we dealt with the flowing corpses last time, Brother Zhuang gave the documents. ”
As he spoke, he quickly flipped through a few pages, and then asked the second master: "Didn't this document say that the cause of the corpse has not yet been determined?" ”
The second master leaned over and looked at the document in Liang Houzai's hand, he looked at things very slowly, and after a long time he said, "The document in your hand should be sorted out by people within the organization." There were some things that were not recorded, it should be said that we did not report them, and the situation in the organization was not very optimistic at that time, and we did not dare to say many things. ”
I noticed that when the second master was talking, he glanced at Luo Youfang many times.
Seeing his expression, I knew what the so-called "the situation is not too optimistic" meant, it seems that as early as when the second master and they entered the Bohai Tomb, there were already internal ghosts in the organization.
He didn't tell me about the situation of the Bohai Tomb, probably because at that time, I was also the focus of the organization's suspicions.
I didn't want to delve into the past, so I just asked the second master: "It should be true that the Bohai Tomb was sealed, how can we get in?" ”
The second master said: "Use explosives." Once the tomb is broken, we must enter as soon as possible to prevent the corpses inside from coming out. There is another thing, Xiao Zhuang has always thought that the burial sect may have left something important when he went to the tomb last time, and recently, mercenaries have often entered the sea, and so far we have captured more than ten people. ”
Luo Youfang: "That shouldn't be a very important thing, if it's important, Luo Zhongxing will definitely let Hei Bai Ding come, they are not so easy to catch." ”
I nodded, and asked the second master again: "The people of the burial sect have entered the tomb again?" ”
"No," the second master responded, "they were caught by us before they could get to the grave, and we planted a lot of fishermen in the offshore area, and they couldn't cross that line of defense." I haven't been to the tomb during this time, but theoretically speaking, it is impossible for them to open it. Recently, there have been no rumors of corpses appearing in Bohai Bay. ”
When we spoke, the ship was already offshore, and there were still some winds and waves on the sea, and after entering the sea, the ship became fluttering, and Liu Shangang had been sitting on the ground with his hands crossed, looking a little nervous.
The second master and Wang Lei put away the map, I walked up to Liu Shangang and patted him on the shoulder: "What's wrong with you, seasick?" ”
Liu Shangang: "It's okay to just get seasick." When I first sailed with Lao Bao, I encountered pirates, and Lao Xiao died that time. Alas, I now think of that incident as long as I take the boat, and all these years have passed, but I still can't get over a hurdle in my heart. ”
I took a bottle of water and handed it to Liu Shangang, who took it and didn't open the cap, just hugged it in his arms.
Let him slow himself.
Thinking so, I went to Li Renfeng's side again, and before I could speak, Li Renfeng said to me: "The top game of the Nine Stars of the Yuxian lineage really shouldn't have evil corpses. ”
The second master also said before that those weird evil corpses were probably put in by others after the dungeon was built. The second master said that some of the costumes on the evil corpse came from the Ming Dynasty, and I remember that the last time I lived in the Yellow River Beach, I also found a Ming tomb.
This seems to mean that in the Ming Dynasty, someone once found the ancient tomb built by the first ancestor and rearranged it. As for whether that person is inappropriate, it is still impossible to draw a conclusion.
I asked Li Renfeng: "Is there anything special about the feng shui bureau you are talking about?" ”
Li Renfeng: "Of course there is, that bureau is the northwest Tianyao southeast earth fire, the five towers in the middle correspond to metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, and the four towers correspond to heaven, earth, people, gods and ghosts. ”
I said, "You mean, Yin Jade originally existed on that tower?" ”
Li Renfeng shook his head: "Yin jade is not good, that thing is too heavy in yin qi, and it will cause damage to the entire Feng Shui Bureau." If I were a first ancestor, I would definitely put something full of righteousness there. Oh, yes, this feng shui bureau was originally used to suppress evil spirits, if there is an evil thing in the underground palace, it should be hidden in the center of the Nine Stars Peak Bureau, and there must be something of the five elements of gold to suppress the game. ”
When I saw the second master coming, I opened my mouth and asked him, "Second master, did you encounter any powerful evil things when you went to the tomb last time?" ”
As he walked towards this side, he stuffed the folded map into a palm-sized bag, and replied to me nonchalantly: "There is a horse's belly, which I killed." ”
He handed the bag to Wang Lei, rolled up his sleeves again, and I saw a long scar on the inside of the second master's upper arm.
He pointed to the scar and said to me, "That thing is really powerful, it's the first time I've been in the industry for so many years, and it's the first time I've been injured so badly, and at that time, this arm was almost unsaved." ”
The last time I took a bath with him, I found that even if there were not hundreds, there were at least dozens of wounds on his body, but most of them were relatively shallow, like this kind of big scar that can make the skin and flesh obviously sink, it seems that there is only this one.
Subsequently, the second master called Liu Shangang to count the equipment together, and they divided all the equipment into nine parts and distributed them to everyone.
I counted the number of people in the warehouse, counting me, Liang Houzai, Liu Shangang, Shi Bo, Luo Youfang, Li Renfeng, Xian'er, Luo Fei, as well as Erye and Wang Lei, there were ten people, but the equipment was indeed only prepared for nine.
When Wang Lei put my equipment at my feet, he smiled at me: "My endurance is too poor, so I won't follow you." The second master asked me to stay on the sea to prevent any accidents from happening outside. ”
At this time, the second master waved his hand to everyone: "Everyone hurry up and rest, the tomb is very large, after we go in, it will take two or three days to come out if it goes well." ”
Wang Lei brought blankets to everyone, and we were not polite, wrapped in blankets one by one, leaning on the corner of the warehouse to take a nap.
Everyone knows in their hearts that at this time, it is the most important thing to take care of physical strength, and after going to the grave, abundant physical strength is the capital to save life.
At more than six o'clock in the morning, Wang Lei woke everyone up, and then walked half an hour by sea to the top of the tomb.
Wang Lei and two other crew members set up a large cauldron on the ship's board, and as soon as I left the warehouse, I smelled the smell of boiled seafood.
The second master took a few small aluminum lunch boxes from the crew and handed me one: "Eat first, and when there is movement on the sea, we will continue to move forward." ”
After me, Liu Shangang and the others also came out one after another, and the second master didn't seem to take the matter of going to the tomb to heart at all, he had already prepared a few bottles of spices, and sat in front of the cauldron alone and ate it.
I leaned on the edge of the boat and looked towards the sea, and at this time the rusty red morning glow had slowly risen at the end of the sky and the sea, and the sea was very calm after the wind and waves passed, but I always felt as if something was pressing down on my heart, and I could not relax at all.
Uncle Shi walked up to me, glanced at the sea in the distance, frowned, and said, "The dark tide is surging, I'm afraid this tomb is not so simple." ”
The big tomb arranged by the first ancestor has always been incompatible with the word "simple", and I gave my uncle a smile, which was a response to him.
The second master beckoned to us: "Everyone comes to eat, in the next two or three days, you will not have this mouth." ”
Everyone sat in a circle around the cauldron, poured some delicious seasonings into the lunch box, and ate silently.
Everyone's faces were a little nervous, but the second master seemed to be fine, eating while pouting everyone to talk.
This time the tomb is different from the past, after all, it is in the depths of the sea, it is estimated that there will be many emergencies that we have not encountered before, and I don't know where the second master got his confidence from, as if this time the tomb will be fine.
Before Wang Lei said that there was still a half-hour boat ride from the tomb, but from the time I shipped out of the warehouse to now, the ship has been moored in place, and there is no intention of continuing to move forward.
I couldn't help but ask the second master: "When will you act?" ”
The second master just waved his hand at me, telling me not to be anxious.
It wasn't until the morning sun rose from the sea level and extended a long and narrow band of golden red light where the sky and the sea connected that the second master got up with his lunch box and shouted towards the cockpit: "Release the torpedo!" ”
Wang Lei replied, "It's here!" Then I felt the hull of the ship shake violently, and in front of the cockpit, there was a faint sound of rapid water breaking.
Liu Shangang asked the second master: "There are torpedoes on this broken ship?" ”
"Modified." The second master first smiled at him, and then said to everyone: "Stand firm, the wind and waves are coming." ”
It was a long time after he had finished speaking, and a small splash burst on the sea in the distance, and after that, the sea was no longer calm.
I first felt the hull shake violently twice, and then I heard the sound of "hoho" running water far ahead.
At the place where the splash had just erupted, the sea water slowly stirred up, forming a small whirlpool.
As the surrounding sea continues to turbulent, the area of this whirlpool is gradually expanding, the hull is very turbulent, we have to grab what we can grasp around us, barely stabilize the center of gravity, only the second master is still sitting next to the cauldron and eating, the pot is fixed on the ship's board, it shakes with the hull, the soup inside, shells and everything is sprinkled everywhere, but this does not affect the second master's appetite, his body is like welded to the ship's board, no matter how the hull sways, it just can't shake him.
