Chapter 214: Bull's Head

Under the twilight shrouded in the "Evil Luohai City", there are countless lights in the city, which appear to be extremely hazy in the mist, as if the residents of the ancient city have lit the fire candles, ready to welcome the arrival of the night, but the city is deathly silent, I don't feel the slightest bit of anger, just a few glances, I have already broken out in a cold sweat, legend has it that the residents of this city have disappeared inexplicably, and even if the reincarnation sect in the later generations has been extinct for hundreds of years, how can there be lights in this city? The city, which can accommodate tens of thousands of people, has no movement, and it seems that it is either a "dead city" or a "ghost city".

Just when I was amazed, the rest of the people climbed to the top of the green rock one after another, and they, like me, were speechless for a long time when they saw this ancient city with two great contrasts between "death" and "life".

Legend has it that the ancient city of Pompeii in the Roman era was also destroyed overnight due to the disaster of a volcanic eruption, and later archaeological excavations found that when the inhabitants of the city died, they still retained the normal life at home before their deaths, and the posture of "Pompeii" was frozen forever at the moment of destruction.

However, the ancient city in front of us, the inhabitants in it seem to have all evaporated, only the beehive-like "Evil Luohai City", the lights stand brilliantly in the twilight, it is so well preserved, that it seems to have broken free from the shackles of time, and nothing has changed in these thousands of years, what disasters have happened in this city? It's scary just to think about.

We will inevitably think that this city is a "ghost sting", but after asking Ah Xiang, we got a negative answer, this devil's lair does exist, not a "ghost sting" created by the dead and undead.

We were about to discuss how to enter the city, when we heard the water churning in the "Wind Erosion Lake" under the rocks, and it was not yet dark. Looking down from the heights, the glass-like transparent wind erosion lake is vivid, but it is relatively vague and hazy, the "white-bearded old fish" and the two "spotted Jiao" have been divided into winners and losers, thousands of white-bearded fish, in order to help their ancestors, desperately hit the "spotted Jiao" with their bodies under the water.

The "whitebeard fish" has a red mark on the top of its head. There seems to be their strongest part. Their body shape is about half a meter on average, and they bounce up in the water, which is enough to knock people out of blood, and although the pair of "spotted Jiao" is fierce and tenacious, they don't feel like being hit by ten or eight big fish. But it couldn't stand the bombardment of tens of thousands of big fish, and the old fish took advantage of the situation to fight back, and the "spotted Jiao" couldn't parry, so it had to jump back into the woods on the shore. The trees were knocked to the ground by them, and disappeared in an instant.

The old fish with bruises floating in the lake, and a lot of flesh scales were bitten off by the "spotted Jiao". A large piece of the gills of the fish was torn off, and its roe and fish grandchildren gathered around and blocked its wounds with their mouths, and the "white-bearded fish" gathered more and more, and after a while, they formed a "fish formation" again. A large area of black pressure obscures the surface of the "Wind Erosion Lake".

I saw the "fish array" slowly sinking to the bottom of the lake, and thought to myself that it looked like there was a "white-bearded fish" and a "spotted jiao". There must often be fierce conflicts, "Spotted Jiao" seems to just want to kill the fish, rather than simply dog food wrapping, but the fish have the command of the king of fish, although the "Spotted Jiao" is powerful, it is difficult to take advantage of anything, is the contradiction between them, just want to snatch this rare "wind erosion lake"? What is so special about this lake? There may be a lot of ancient secrets involved, but I can't take care of these in front of me, and while the sky is not completely dark, I should go to "Evil Luohai City".

Shinley Young asked me if I was going straight into town? There are obviously lights flickering in the city, but they are surprisingly quiet, and the strange signs of planting us are intimidating.

I said to Shinley Yang: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get the tiger, since Ah Xiang said that there is nothing unclean in this city, I think we have lost thirty-six defeats, and there is nothing to be afraid of until now, but this ancient city is indeed full of evil spirit from the inside out, and it seems to hide some unimaginable things. ”

So everyone took the remaining belongings, looking for a way into the city, the big beehive-like ancient city, deep in the ground, the barrel-like white city wall, it seems to be just a decoration, there is not much military defense function, but the scale is very large, it takes a lot of effort to go around, there is a strange mist floating in the city, the houses here are all caves on the beehive, which extends in all directions, we are afraid of getting lost, we dare not venture in, only look in a few holes, the more we look at it, the more we feel frightened.

There was not a single figure in the city, but seven or eight of the ten miles were already lit, and those lamps were not permanent lights, they were all ancient fuels made of the dried dung of wild beasts mixed with grease, and they seemed to have just been lit, and although the city caves were ancient, they were by no means as dilapidated as thousand-year-old monuments, and some of the utensils and animal skins in the caves seemed to be new, and there were even half-polished skull wine cups.

The time in this city really seems to be frozen, and its frozen time seems to be the moment when the residents of the city disappear, we discussed it, it is easy to get lost in the city in the dark night, and the streets in this "Evil Luohai City", including those political and religious institutions, sacrificial institutions and important buildings, may be in the depths of the big beehive, there are thousands of households in this city, and it is completely different from the ordinary city structure, the safest way at the moment is to wait until dawn to see the structure of the hive in the periphery, and find a shortcut into the altar in the depths, You must not be reckless in the city, you must not be vague when you should be a bastard, but you must not act rashly when you should be cautious.

We were going to spend the night in the wall, but when we passed through a hole in the wall, the fat man, like a hound smelling a rabbit, sniffed and said, "What smells so good?" It's like who's stewed beef, the bull demon king and his sister, this really scratches the itch of the fat man. ”

Listening to the fat man say this, I also seem to smell the aroma of boiled beef, which came from the cave house, I am worried that there is not much food left, not enough to distribute, just now in the wind erosion lake said that it can deal with two or three days, that is to comfort everyone, in fact, it is not enough to eat, at this moment smell the meat is naturally to go in and see. At that moment, the two of them took the lead in the cave house, and in the stone kettle inside, there was indeed yak meat that was being cooked, and it was steaming, which was really fragrant and delicious, and the five flavors were harmonious.

The fat man swallowed his saliva and said to me, "Commander Hu, we really want to come here." Although the ghee is sweet, it is not as good as the tsampa to eat, although the tsampa is good, but it is not as good as yak meat to fight hunger, this pot of beef is prepared for us, right? This one...... Can you eat it? ”

In this ancient city, where there is no half of a human figure, there is even a pot of freshly cooked beef. This is really difficult to guess with common sense, I think of the time when I first joined the queue, in the "Ox Heart Mountain" with nine dragons and jade lotus, I ate the fruit of the old lady. Isn't this also a ghost market with ghosts and the like? It's all a trick for frogs and earthworms to change, and you have to make a stomach when you eat it, thinking of these, I can't help but hesitate, the situation of these meats is unknown, or don't eat it, although it looks like beef, maybe it's human flesh cooked in the pot.

Uncle Ming was also so hungry at this time that his heart was close to his back, and the two of them stared directly at the yak meat in the pot, and after a while, the two of them had probably eaten several pieces with their eyes, and I asked Shinley Yang if he had any opinion on this pot of meat?

Shinley Yang shook his head and shook it very simply, and confirmed with Ah Xiang again that the yak meat cooked in this pot was indeed real and not fake.

When the fat man heard Ah Xiang say this, he couldn't wait any longer, and he wasn't afraid of being hot, so he reached out and pinched a piece of meat and swallowed it in his mouth: "I will sacrifice my life for righteousness, taste it for my comrades first, and the poison and medicine in the meat will greet me first." He said while eating, and before he finished a sentence, he had already eaten seven or eight pieces of beef in his neck, and he couldn't stop it if he wanted to.

We waited for a while, to see that he finished eating and there was really no problem, at this time the fat man himself had already made half a pot of beef, I think I can't observe it anymore, and then wait until even the cucumber vegetables are cold, since it is not poisonous, what dare not eat, so everyone turned their minds to the heart, and would rather die than starve to death, so they all used paratrooper knives to pick out the beef from the pot and eat it.

As I ate, I suddenly remembered something, and said to Uncle Ming: "Tomorrow at dawn, we want to go into the depths of the big beehive, what dangers there are in it, and it is not expected to be peaceful, you and Ah Xiang are still safer to stay outside the city, and we will come out to pick you up when we are done." ”

Uncle Ming was stuffing several pieces of beef in his mouth, and he couldn't speak if he wanted to, so he simply swallowed the meat in a hurry, choked and rolled his eyes for a long time, and then said to me: "We are all a family sooner or later, why do you say anything outside of sight?" Although Ah Xiang and I don't have much skills, we can help you somewhat......"

In the past, Uncle Ming said that he wanted to marry Ah Xiang to me, and he discussed it privately with the two of me, and I never agreed, but then Uncle Ming said that sooner or later it would be a family, Shinley Yang heard it, and immediately asked Uncle Ming: "What family?" Do you want to climb relatives with Lao Hu? ”

Uncle Ming said: "Yes, I don't have to say anything about Brother Hu's character, the male should be married, the female should be married, my junior will naturally have to worry about them, even if my goddaughter marries him, even if she has a lifelong trust, I can close my eyes when I die, and I am worthy of Ah Xiang's biological parents." ”

I quickly interrupted Uncle Ming's words: "For thousands of years, the blood of the Chinese working people has flowed into the sea, the struggle has failed, and the struggle has been defeated until the final victory is achieved, in order to overthrow the three mountains that have pressed on us Chinese people, I have lost half my life, and in the end I still want to arrange an arranged marriage under the feudal system for me?" Do you want me to suffer twice and create two sins? I am resolutely against it, and whoever mentions me again will rebel. ”

The fat man just had enough to eat, he was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, and when he heard us say this, he immediately followed and coaxed him, and said to Uncle Ming: "Uncle Ming, my own uncle, you can take care of Bayi and tell him a daughter-in-law, this is a good thing for pies falling from the sky, but he is stunned that the pies that fall down are not three fresh, why don't you give me Ah Xiangyun?" My parents left early, can I go to your house and plug the door? In the future, I will treat you as my father, and when you return to the throne, I promise to howl you from Tiananmen Square to Babaoshan, and promise Chairman Mao that you will not stop for a word, and you will be sad as much as you want...... Just how sad. ”

The fat man smacked Uncle Ming, I almost squirted out all the beef in my mouth when I listened, and at this moment a cow roared from the depths of the cave house, interrupting everyone's laughter, and all the people in the house heard it, the sound of the yak was not strange in Tibet, but it was heard in this silent ancient city, plus we had just eaten beef, which was enough to make people's scalps tingle.

I asked Shinley Yang to stay and take care of Uncle Ming and Ah Xiang, waved his hand to the fat man, the two picked up their weapons, and touched the depths of the cave house with the "wolf eye", when I came in, I had a cursory look inside, the structure is similar to the rest of the cave houses, but there seems to be more stone doors, because I saw a few cave houses, there was no one inside, so after this, I just looked casually, and didn't pay much attention to it, and then walked to the stone gate, and I felt that the situation was wrong.

The stone gate is slippery and greasy, there is a bloody human-shaped handprint, it seems that someone has blood on his hands, when he left, he hurriedly took the stone door up, touched it with his hand, the blood seemed to be still very fresh, and the time left was not long.

I nodded to the fat man, the fat man took two steps back, sprinted forward, slammed the stone door open with his shoulder, I followed the gun inside, but there was still no one inside, I saw blood everywhere on the walls around me, the stone case and the wooden stake in the middle were also bright red, and I saw the piles of fresh yak meat, this is the slaughterhouse in the city, and there are a few bloody cowhides that are still steaming, as if they have just been peeled off the cow.

The fat man and I had just eaten boiled beef, and at this time we both felt a little disgusting, and suddenly found something on our heads, and suddenly looked up, a bull's head two or three times larger than an ordinary yak, hanging upside down, there was no skin on the cow's head, the eyes were round, the flesh was dripping, the two nostrils were still breathing, and most of the cow's tongue was spit out, as if it was still alive, and let out a heavy muffled snort at me and the fat man.
