Chapter 165: Heavenly Collapse

I stepped on the inner coffin of the king in the dark and slippery eyes, desperately climbing up, the anxious urging of the fat man and Shirley Yang was constantly coming from above, I don't know whether it was due to the impatience of the mentality, or the effect of the melted matter in the "Aconitum Meat Coffin", I felt that there was darkness all around, and the only faint beam of light on the mountaineering helmet seemed to have melted into the boundless darkness of the meat coffin, almost negligible.

In the process of climbing upward, I felt that there was something below that was also climbing up with me, and as soon as I noticed it, my heart was already half cold, and in the eyes of this meat coffin, in addition to the headless corpse of the king, where was there anything else, it must be that the old zongzi caught up to grab his head.

This thought flashed in my mind, and I felt that my left foot had been grabbed by a strong hand, and I was about to crawl out, but at this moment my body was pulled back to the middle of the eye, and I held the human head in one hand, and inserted the sapper shovel into the old fleshy wall with the other, temporarily immobilizing my body so as not to fall directly to the bottom.

I looked down, and in the trance light, I saw a black and miscellaneous headless corpse, struggling to crawl out of the inner coffin, the headless corpse seemed to be covered with a layer of black mucous membranes, almost integrated with the eye points of the "aconitum flesh coffin", and stretched out a big black hand to grab my feet and neck and pull it down.

Those peach wood nails seem to have no effect on the corpse at all, which shows that there is only one possibility, this corpse has been integrated with the "corpse hole" attached to the meat coffin, and the corpse of the king is the center of the corpse cave. No one can tell how deep it is. There is a widely circulated theory that the scale of the Paris catacomiosis is comparable to that of the civil air defense fortifications in Beijing, although this comparison is not absolutely reliable, but it is obvious that the tomb is very large.

Due to an unknown reason, in the depths of the Paris catacomies, there is a certain supernatural phenomenon of the "corpse cave", that is a "gap zone" between existence and matter and energy, the French "corpse hole" is said to be only two or three meters in diameter, and the meat coffin of the king is not less than 20 meters longitudinal and horizontal, if it is really completely formed a "corpse hole" that can devour everything, it will be difficult for us to escape from the blue sky.

But at this time, he was in a desperate situation. I didn't care much at all, so I had to try to get rid of the entanglement of this headless corpse first, so I shouted to the fat man above: "Fat man take the detonator, quickly take the detonator!" As he spoke. He threw the head of the king at it.

The fat man saw that there was a reunion and rolling things thrown up, and he didn't look closely, he raised his hand to catch it, and when he looked down, he was illuminated by the spotlight on the helmet, so that he could see that it was a strange human head with a face that seemed to have melted, and he was bold. I couldn't help but shrink my hand in fright, drop the head of the king to the ground, and no longer pay attention to it at the moment, and immediately start to take out the detonator.

I barely supported it below, threw the human head up, and had no time to care whether the fat man and Shirley Yang could see that it was the head of the king, and with one free hand, I immediately pulled out the sapper shovel and slapped down the headless black corpse below.

However, as soon as my feet were loosened, the feeling of being held by the iron hoop disappeared, and the headless corpse abandoned me, and climbed up from the side without a word, as if its target was only the human head.

Seeing that there was an opportunity, I didn't dare to relax at all, so I hurriedly stepped on the cavity of the headless corpse with my foot, kicked it back to the bottom of the hole, and I borrowed the power of the pedaling to jump upwards and grabbed the slippery edge of the eye point.

Shirley Yang on the top immediately grabbed my arm and assisted me to climb up, when I jumped down just now, it was really a moment of blood and courage, and now I feel scared when I climb up, both legs are a little trembling, and I quickly stomped my feet hard.

But I didn't even have a chance to think about the process of adaptation, and there was a spark in front of me, and the fat man had already lit a group of three detonators, cursed in his mouth, looked at the direction, and threw the detonator into the eye hole I had just climbed up.

My mood has calmed down a little, thinking that as soon as this detonator explodes, the headless corpse is copper skin and iron bones, and it can also be blown into broken flesh and bones, and the meat coffins around it have been completely deformed, as if they are the internal organs of cattle and sheep, and countless limbs in it are constantly squirming, it seems that within ten seconds, there will be a complete "corpse hole" here, fortunately, the entrance where we came in is still there, but it is also covered with black mucous membranes, I picked up the head of the king who was thrown away by the fat man, clamped it tightly under the armpit, and shouted to Shirley Yang and the fat man:" Are you still waiting for the thunderbolt to strike, let's watch the well go backwards. (Watching the well: from the inside out; Running away)

The three of them rushed out, and the fat man was so busy that he didn't forget to ask me: "Is that thing a human head or a bright weapon?" ”

I told the fat man as I ran: "This dedication to the king's head, the eight achievements are the life-saving beads we are looking for." Shirley Yang heard that he had taken the "dust beads", and his spirits were also lifted, and together with me and the fat man, three steps and two steps, rushed to the entrance, and quickly waved the sapper shovel to cut through the carrion-like mucous membranes that covered the entrance.

Just as he was about to jump out, suddenly a black thing, with a puff of white smoke, fell from the sky, just fell into the hands of the fat man, the fat man said strangely: "What are you doing?" Concentrate on it, but it turned out to be the detonator he just threw into the eye hole, where the headless corpse is located, a large amount of flesh is growing, before the detonator explodes, it popped out, the fuse has burned to the end, the fat man was shocked, hurriedly threw the detonator backwards, under the impact of an explosion of air waves, the three of them smoked and climbed out of the coffin.

The situation in the big hollow was still the same, but there were more corpse moths flying nearby, and Shirley Yang fired one last flare into the corner, attracting the scattered corpse moths everywhere, and then the three of them ran down the road they came, and just as they were about to run to the bottom of the big hollow, they only heard the sound of "clattering" nails scratching the wall overhead.

We didn't have any lighting tools that could go far at this point, and we couldn't see what was going on above, but we didn't have to look to know it. The "corpse hole effect" began to spread outside the aconitum meat coffin. And it came straight to us.

We didn't dare to stop at all, so we jumped into the burial chamber in the middle of the ground, and I said to the fat man and Shirley Young, "This human head for the king can't be returned, but then there is no way to get rid of the entanglement of the corpse hole." ”

The Yin Palace of the Tomb of the King is a three-story coffin, with the lowest wooden coffin, the middle stone coffin, and the highest meat coffin. There is a circle of corridors outside, looking down, it is a hollow word, but the perimeter is circular, and the three floors of the coffin are of different sizes, and it can even be said that it looks like a vortex, or the shape of an eyeball. This underworld palace is built deep in the mountain wall, there is only one exit, there is no void to break, only where to come from and where to go back.

The three of them ran out while discussing, it was not a game to keep escaping like this, the current time is estimated to have passed the early hours of the morning, we have not closed our eyes for a day and a night, and since we have eaten something indiscriminately on the glass top of Lingyun Heavenly Palace, we have not eaten water and rice until now. We must find a way to completely solve this huge corpse hole, otherwise there will be no life.

In this rush of escape, I can't think of any good countermeasures, and the only thing I can think of is to wear down the enemy in a big retreat, fully expose its weaknesses, and then act as an opportunity, but how far we can escape with our current physical strength and energy depends on how quickly the corpse cave devours matter.

Running all the way, I have passed through the third bridge and the long tomb road in front of the gate of the Yin Palace, and came to the huge and heavy stone gate, and climbed the heavenly gate with the copper eaves hollowed out, and the sound in the corpse cave behind me has been much smaller, and it seems that we have been thrown away for a distance, but it is still like a maggot attached to the bone, closely following behind.

The fat man rode on the door frame of the bronze gate of heaven and said, "There are still a few pieces of explosives left, why don't you blow up this gate of heaven and seal him inside?" ”

Shirley Yang said: "This stone gate can't stop the devouring of the corpse cave at all, but it can also block it for a while...... "Halfway through, he suddenly felt that the situation under the door was wrong: "Why did the water in the tunnel rise so high?" ”

I looked down and saw that one-third of the stone gate had been flooded, which meant that the water hole outside was blocked, I hurriedly asked the fat man to quickly load the explosives, it seems that the 10,000-year-old meat zhi is the convergence point of the feng shui rush here, it was alarmed, and the earth qi that has been accumulated here for two thousand years is probably going to pour out between this moment and three moments, maybe the entire worm valley will be flooded, if you can't escape before that, you must feed the carp and turtle at the bottom of the pool, until the leyline breath returns to normal, the water will recede. As long as the narrow gate of heaven can be blown up, the fat man has already filled the explosives in a moment, I looked back at the dark palace through the gap in the gate of heaven, gritted my teeth, and thought that the thirty-six defeats were defeated, and the last one was almost instigated, no matter what, I had to take this human head out, and as soon as I beckoned, the three of them dived back from under the gate of heaven and into the water to look at the original way.

Swimming to the vicinity of the eye of the water, sure enough, the suction of the vortex no longer exists, and the water is surging upward, we swim back to the waterhole outside by rolling upwards, and the water level here is also rising, but because of the funnel-shaped ring wall, there are many large and small crevice caves, usually covered by vines and mud, and at this moment the water level rises, all seep into it, so the speed of the water surface rise is not as bad as we expected.

We found a stone slab "boardwalk" near the surface of the water and climbed up. Although he was far away from the gloomy and dark underground tomb, he did not feel the sense of seeing the light of day, the sky outside was still as dark as the bottom of a pot, and the sound of the waterfalls in the darkness was like thunder, and the head was blackened and pressed to the top, making it difficult to breathe.

When I was about halfway up, I felt that the roaring water was gradually becoming quieter, and I could hear each other's conversations, so I said to the fat man and Shirley Yang: "Climb back to Lingyun Palace first, and then try to get out of the Worm Valley, the Toad Palace in the gourd cave, it's not too late to clean up later." ”

Shinley Yang also understood the current situation, the corpse cave would follow in an instant, we were still too busy to take care of ourselves, and we had to put other things aside for the time being, so we followed me and the fat man to continue to detour up along the "plank road", and suddenly our feet were soft and we knelt on the ground.

I hurriedly helped her up, only to find that Shirley Yang could no longer stand, and I was shocked: "Do you have thigh cramps?" ”

Shirley Young clasped his knees and said, "It's like a calf...... Unconscious. His tone trembled, full of horror.

The fat man held a flashlight to illuminate it, and I examined Shinley Yang's leg and found a palm-sized black bruise on the snow-white skin of her calf, so black that it seemed to be stained with ink, and the fat man and I exclaimed at the same time: "It's a corpse!" ”

I was so anxious that I said to Shirley Young, "My aunt, your leg was bitten by a corpse moth, and this is fatal...... Do we still have glutinous rice? ”

Suddenly, there was a sound of fingernails scratching the wall from the cliff under his feet, and the corpse hole, which looked like a big meat cabinet, unexpectedly chased after him, and the distance was already so close, only within ten meters.

If this ancient wall is like a cut, the ape and the bird have been chased in a desperate place, then it will be difficult to get out, I and the fat man looked at each other, and I knew very well that the last moment had come, weighing the pros and cons, I had to not want this head, but even if I lost the pawn to protect the car, I may not be able to get through the current difficulties.

But at this moment, suddenly there was a blood-red crack in the dark sky, it turned out that our estimate of the time was wrong, the sky outside was clear, but it was covered by the "black pig crossing the river", the cloud was too thick, in the funnel, I thought it was still night. But at this time, the black clouds were swept open by the rising earth qi, and the strange scene in the sky made people stunned for a moment, isn't this the scene of the sky falling depicted in the picture of Xianwang Tianling?

I haven't seen the real "dust beads", I have only seen a fake one in the exquisite ruins in the sea of sand, it is made of rare ancient jade, smaller than a human head a few times, the shape and texture are no different from the human eye, but I don't know the real size and geometry, can I just hold it in my hand.

But at this moment, he didn't have time to distinguish carefully, so he immediately took out the corpse rope and put a sleeve in the neck of the body of the king, trying to pull him out of the inner coffin and let the fat man drag him up, but the "corpse rope" in his hand was pulled back twice, and the corpse did not move at all.

I wondered in my heart, and I didn't know where something strange happened, so I had to raise my hand, slap the corpse of the king a few times, and then drag it out, but still didn't move.

It's best to have no choice, and it's too late to find a reason, so I had to solve the problem on the spot, took out a peach wood nail from the carrying bag, and inserted it straight into the heart of the dead corpse, and then stretched out his hands flat, and felt it from head to toe on the corpse of the king, and when I touched his left hand, I saw that it was the same as my right hand, and it was also tightly clenched into a fist, and there was obviously something in my hand.

I immediately took out two more peachwood nails, nailed the crook of the arm of the corpse of the king, broke his fingers hard, and secretly prayed in my heart, I hope that the "phoenix gall" is here, but after breaking it, it is like a basin of cold water has been poured on the head.

In the left hand of the corpse of the king, holding a spoiled peach pit, although unexpected, but it is not surprising that the Chinese have a special feeling for "peach", they regard the peach as a kind of sacred object to ward off evil, avoid disasters and increase life, so there are many objects in the shape of peach in ancient crafts. Legend has it that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is the longest reigning emperor of the Western Han Dynasty, the emperor has been doing it for a long time and wants to be a fairy, so he often moves the people to go to the three mountains and five mountains to worship, and also sends people to various places to find the medicine of immortality, this painstaking heart finally touched the Queen Mother of the West of Kunlun Mountain, on the night of the Qixi Festival in the first year of Yuanfeng, took the purple cloud to Weiyang Palace to see Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, on the occasion of the feast, the Queen Mother of the West gave Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty to eat four peaches, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty felt that the taste was sweet, the aroma was abnormal, and the worldly things were very different, so he planned to leave the peach pit to be planted in the world, As a result, he learned that it was difficult for this divine product to survive in the human world, and he was greatly disappointed. Later, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty finally failed to realize the wish of immortality, but people who lived to be seventy years old were very rare in ancient times, perhaps it was because they had eaten fairy peaches that they lived to be seventy years old, of course, this is just a folk legend, but after the death of the emperor, the wind of holding the peach pit into the burial has a long history, as early as the time of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, it was very common, but the peach pit is a plant, the easiest to decompose, so it is difficult to see the coffin in later generations.

I was stunned for a moment, then I remembered this legend, and I cried out again and again in my heart, so I had to break the right hand of the king's corpse again, and in that hand was a lot of black jade rings, which were mixed with some black impurities, and I didn't have time to think about what this thing was in a hurry, so I stuffed it into the carrying bag.

The fat man shouted from above: "Commander Hu, there is no time, go quickly, go quickly." ”

I know that the fat man shouted like this, it must have reached the point of urgency, but the life-threatening "dust beads" have still not landed, this is an inspiration, maybe it is because the king of dedication has the bead in his mouth, the head of this corpse will become so strange, do not do two endlessly, it is better to take the head of the king to go back to study and study.

So he shouted to the fat man, "Throw the sapper shovel down for me, and hold on for the last ten seconds." After speaking, he caught the sapper shovel handed down by the fat man, reached out and touched the neck of the king, which was not petrified like his face, and aimed at the position, and used the American-style sapper shovel to cut the side of the jagged side, and when he encountered the toughness, he used the paratrooper knife to cut.

This is the corpse that was about to be cut off by me, suddenly shook violently, I knew that something was wrong, first out of a body of white sweat, hurriedly pulled the human head, quickly climbed up, the cold smoke at the bottom of the cave has been extinguished, no need to look down, you can also know by feeling, the headless body of the king is chasing me.
