Chapter Seventy-Three: Touching the Golden Talisman
Seeing that we were about to catch up with the big gold tooth dragged away by the human spider "black cane", I didn't expect that our only light source, the fat man's "wolf eye" flashlight, ran out of battery at this time.
I knew in my heart that if there was a slight delay, the big gold tooth would be dragged into the depths of the spider's nest, and he would never be able to be saved......
I didn't think much about it, so I took off my clothes, the back of the clothes were worn out on the ground, I pulled a few hard hands, then tore them open, three times and two times to remove the sleeves, took the kettle with half a pot of wine from the fat man's hand, sprinkled it on the clothes, and lit the clothes with a lighter, I was wearing a 78-style military uniform, this kind of clothes are easy to stick to the skin after burning, so when the army fights, the troops are still issued 65-style and 65-change, these military uniforms can be bought brand new in Beijing as long as you want to wear them.
Because we wanted to drill the thief hole, we all deliberately found a few sturdy clothes, and I put this military uniform on my body at that time, and I didn't think that it would come in handy at this time, so I set the clothes on fire, and soon they burned, and I was afraid that I would burn myself by sticking to my hands, so I didn't dare to slack off, so I threw this lump of clothes in front like a fireball.
By the flickering light of the fire, I saw that the big gold tooth was being pulled into a triangular hole, and the fire was about to be extinguished again, and I saw the direction clearly, and ran forward with the fat man, undressing, and lit everything that could be burned on my body and threw it out to light.
Seeing that the big gold tooth was about to be dragged upside down into the hole of the triangle, I ran two steps and pounced, grabbed the big gold tooth's arm, pulled him back, and the fat man also arrived and cut off the spider silk that was entangled in the big gold tooth, and the big gold tooth was only about two meters away, and was about to be dragged into the triangular cave.
Looking at the big gold tooth, he had been knocked by the stones in the cave, his nose and face were swollen, and his body was covered in blood, but he still maintained his sanity, which was a blessing in misfortune.
I thought to myself that this cave is a spider's lair, I have to leave quickly, so as not to be attacked again, the clothes on my body and the fat man have been burned almost, and if we continue to burn, we should be bare-assed, and we were dragged by the spider in the cave I don't know how far, the path has long been lost and difficult to discern, but at the moment I can't care so much, first touch the dark and escape far away before making plans.
I was trying to carry the big gold tooth away with the fat man, and before I could get started, I suddenly flew out a few spider silks from the hole in the triangle opposite, the front end of this spider silk was like a cake thrown by India, and it couldn't be shaken off when it was attached to the body, and the speed was extremely fast, the three of us couldn't dodge, we were all sticky, the fat man wanted to block it with the sapper shovel, but I didn't think that the sapper shovel was also entangled in spider silk, the fat man couldn't hold it, the sapper shovel fell to the ground with his hand, and he wanted to bend down to pick it up, but his body was stuck and couldn't move.
It would be better if he was wearing clothes, he was naked and glued to spider silk, and he couldn't get out for a while, so the three of them made a bunch and were slowly dragged into the triangular hole.
I was right, the hole must be the nest of the human-faced spider "black-cheeked", I don't know how many there are in it, whether it is a large one, or several and a half large, no matter how many human-faced spiders there are, as long as we are dragged into the hole, there will be no one.
The thick and sticky spider silk is getting tighter and tighter, seven or eight twisted into a strand, and the "black canad" in the hole continues to spray spider silk outward, and it seems that before we enter the hole, we will be wrapped in human meat dumplings.
I remembered in a panic that I still held a lighter in my hand, and hurriedly turned the flint and used the flame of the lighter to burn the spider silk that entwined my body.
In just a few seconds, the big gold tooth and the fat man were dragged another meter towards the entrance of the cave, and if I wanted to continue to use the lighter to burn the spider silk to save people, I am afraid that I would only have time to save one person, but I would not have time to save the other one.
I was in a hurry and pulled off the pants of the big gold tooth, and the belt of the big gold tooth was dragged off as early as when we were chasing him, and the pants were also worn to the bare cheeks, and half of them were torn off when I pulled them.
I plugged the hole with his trousers, and then lit them with a lighter, trying to burn all the spider silk that had been twisted into a large strand, but I didn't expect that as soon as a few sparks came out of my trousers, the whole triangular hole burned at the same time, and the fire grew bigger and bigger.
In an instant, the whole cave was illuminated by flames, and the spider silk sprayed out of the cave mouth was also burned, I hurriedly dragged the big gold tooth and the fat man backwards, and the three of them each started to shake off the spider silk on their bodies.
At this time, it seemed as if half of the cave had been set alight, and the sound of a horn was coming out of the fire, and then I saw that the triangular cave was a man-made building, made entirely of wood, and it was probably mixed with pine resin and butter to keep the wood strong.
This wooden building, about the size of seven or eight private houses, I don't know what it was built here for, the wooden building is surrounded by a corpse that has been sucked dry by the "black cane", there are people and various animals, the "black cane" sucked up all the water in the body, which is equivalent to a dehydration treatment of the corpse, although the outside of those corpses are wrapped in the spider silk of the "black canadian", you can still see the painful and distorted expressions on their faces, and they all maintain the tragic state of being slowly tortured to death before their death.
As the wood burned and collapsed, I saw three huge fireballs writhing and struggling in the fire, and after a while, they slowly did not move, I don't know whether they were burned to death, or they were stoned to death by the collapsed wood and stones, and gradually turned into charcoal.
I and the fat man and the big gold tooth were terrified, and wanted to run away, but they kept calling under their feet, so they had to sit down on the spot, and when they saw the fire, they couldn't help but look at each other, what is this building composed of big trees and big stones? Why did the "black clumped" think of this place as a nest?
The fat man suddenly pointed to me and the big gold tooth in the fire and said, "Old Hu, old gold, look at the two of you, there is a human face." ”
The big gold tooth and I looked at the place where the fat man had said, and sure enough, a huge human face appeared in the fire, several times larger than the human face formed by the pattern on the back of the "black belly", and a larger human face carved on the stone coffin.
The face in the fire was illuminated by the firelight, adding a bit of mystery to its already grotesque expression, and the huge face was located in the middle of the building, and as it burned and collapsed, it was revealed, and it turned out to be a huge bronze tripod, and the tripod had a strange human face cast on it.
The fat man asked me, "Old Hu, is this also part of the ghost mound of the donkey day?" ”
I shook my head and said to the fat man: "It shouldn't be, it may be that the ancient people worshipped this cruel human-faced black-cheeked worm as the incarnation of the gods, and specially built such a temple at their old nest for tribute. Today, we have destroyed their nests, which can be regarded as doing the right thing for heaven. ”
The ghost tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty is probably related to this altar with a human face.
It is possible that after the ancient tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty was destroyed, it was preserved because it was located in the depths of the cave and was extremely hidden. But these things have become the dust of history, and I am afraid that only those who study the history of the Western Zhou Dynasty know a thing or two.
I said to the fat man, "Now let's not discuss these useless things, are you injured, let's pick up the big gold tooth and get out of here as soon as possible, maybe there will be a black belly that is not dead, if it attacks, we will now have only pants left all over our bodies, and we will not be able to deal with it at all." ”
The fat man said: "It's a pity to leave now, when the fire is extinguished, find a way to get the copper tripod out, if this thing can be moved back to Beijing, it is estimated that it can be replaced by a few buildings." After speaking, he pushed the big gold tooth again: "Old Jin, how is it?" Has it been relieved? ”
The big golden tooth was frightened, and was hit by the mountain rock a few times, staring at the fire in a daze, and was pushed twice by the fat man, before he came back to his senses and said: "Ah, fat man, Hu Ye, I can't imagine that the three of us brothers will ...... again The underworld has met, this ...... Where is this place? Have you crossed the Nai Ho Bridge now? ”
The fat man said to the big gold tooth, "Are you confused? This is not dead, if you can't die, you will have to continue to suffer, but I have good news for you, we have made a fortune, and there is a bronze man in the temple in front of you...... Oops, this thing doesn't burn, does it? With that, he stood up and wanted to go closer and have a look.
I lay on the ground and shouted to the fat man, "I said can you stop for a while, now I don't even have clothes, and I still think about the scrap metal with my bare ass." ”
The fat man's eyes lit up, and he turned a deaf ear to my words, but the fire was extremely strong, and after taking a few steps forward, he could not stand the scorching breath, so he had to retreat, and stepped on a dead man who had been sucked by the "black belly", and his footing was unstable, and he fell squarely, and threw himself on the dried corpse.
The dry corpse doesn't know how long it has been dead, with the big mouth of the black hole, there are only two black holes left in the position of the eyes, the fat man pounced on the dry corpse, just face to face with the dry corpse, Rao is he is bold, and he is not scared, he shouted, his hands are supported on the dry corpse, and he wants to struggle to get up.
The fat man hurriedly planned to push the dried corpse away, but inadvertently ripped off an object from the neck of the dried corpse, the fat man felt that there was one more thing in his hand, so he raised it up to watch, and found that the object was like an animal's claws, shining in the firelight, dark and transparent, and there was a circle of gold thread inlaid at the bottom, the fat man turned his head to me and said: "Old Hu, do you see if this is a gold talisman." After speaking, he touched the dead man's body again: "Hey, there is a big bag of good things here......"
