Chapter 149: The Tongue
I see that the sky is strange, and tomorrow is a special day, it must be opened at the time of the child, otherwise there may be a great change, but Shirley Yang does not believe this, I said that I will come out, and let her laugh at it in vain, on the top of the glass of the "Lingyun" Heavenly Palace, I have already lost a person, or don't say it for the time being, but I hope that this action can be successful and retreat.
When I thought of this, I pointed to the pool and said to the fat man and Shirley Young: "I fell into this pool of water once, although I was in a hurry, but I have a general grasp of the terrain here, and now we are near the nose of the wreckage of the heavy bomber in the pool, which means that the hole I saw at the bottom of the pool is in the direction of our deviation of twenty degrees, which is very close. ”
Shirley Yang said: "Old Hu, do you estimate that there will be a tomb down there?" If the entire dungeon is flooded, it will be troublesome, the key is that the capacity of our oxygen cylinder is too small to last too long underwater. ”
I said to Shirley Yang, "I saw that in the gap in the mountain, there are many remnants of strange beasts sunk under the water, even if it is not near the tomb gate, most of them are the tomb road leading to the Xuan Palace, at least it must be some underground facility of the mausoleum, I guess that the underground palace dedicated to the tomb of the king is a tic-tac-toe, or a hollow shape, rather than a plane straight paving, even if this section of the tomb is soaked in water, the Xuan Palace is still in an absolutely closed environment." ”
We had already formulated a variety of plans for the various possibilities of the structure of the king's tomb in advance, and now that we were fully prepared, we put on diving goggles and took out a few sips of liquor to increase body temperature.
Shirley Yang held up the special underwater lighting equipment, the "Poseidon dazzle" diving searchlight, and launched the water first.
I was about to follow her down, but when I saw that the fat man was left behind, and he seemed a little hesitant, I pulled him and beckoned him to hurry up. Then plunged headlong into the water.
For some reason, I felt that the water in the pool at night was much cooler than during the day, and it was even colder and darker underwater. Because there is a big "water eye" in the pool, it is extremely dangerous to be caught in the dark, so we only stick to the edge, and from time to time a large number of fish that are alarmed by us pass in front of us, and the bottom of the pool, which was originally like a turquoise crystal, seems to have completely turned into another world in the dark.
Shirley Yang, who was swimming in front, suddenly turned around and gestured to us, she had already found the gap that had been broken by the plane, I swam two meters forward, only to see Shirley Yang holding the "Poseidon dazzle" in his hand, shining its beam in the hole connected to the nose of the plane.
Although the "Poseidon's dazzle" is of little use on the ground, its special properties can play a strong role underwater, the pitch-black pool water, does not make its beam out of shape at all, and the area within 16 meters, as long as it is illuminated by the "Poseidon's dazzle", it will be clear and bright as day.
In the cave as I saw during the day, there are several stone beasts of the tomb with teeth and claws, the outside was broken by the bomber, it is a layer of stone walls, it seems that this place is connected with the tomb road, but I can't see the stone gate of the tomb of the king, the characteristic place at the bottom of the pool, may be blocked by aquatic vegetation, the dragon claw at the whirlpool, I am afraid it should echo the beast head of the tomb door, if you look at the giant claw, you can probably find the tomb door, but since there is a gap here, it saves us some trouble.
I nodded to Shirley Yang, whether it was a tomb or not, Y Yang wanted to go in first, but I was worried that there would be something unexpected inside, so I took the "Poseidon's dazzle" in his hand and went to the cave entrance first.
I swam along the waterway in the graveyard for a while, and when I looked back, Shirley Yang and the fat man followed, and then I suddenly felt in my heart, if in the past, in this case, the fat man would always volunteer to rush in first, but this time, for some reason, he always lagged behind, keeping a distance from us, which was very abnormal, but it was difficult to ask what was going on underwater.
This section of the tomb road is not too long, it is a gentle upward large stone steps, there are some simple stone carvings on both sides, are some contents of the town tomb, the stone road slowly passed the water level, I also poked my head out of the water, only to see a large stone platform exposed in front of me, the shadow on the platform seems to stand many horses, "Poseidon's dazzle" here lost its role, I had to replace it with "wolf eyes" again.
It turned out that there were some green bronze chariots and horses partially soaked in the water in the stone platform, and Shirley Yang also came out of the water at this time, and when he saw the bronze chariots and horses on this stone road, he immediately asked me: These bronze men are the chariot and horse honor guards displayed in front of the Xuangong Gate?
I was intimidated by the dark green bronze terracotta warriors, we were on the side of the stone path, and the water was scattered with many large blistered stones, and it seemed that the state of preservation of the king's tomb was not optimistic. So he paused for a moment before nodding and said, "That's right, it is the bronze chariot and bronze horse that escorted the king to the sky, plus thirty-six generals and colonels."
It seems that the place where we came in was a road for earth and stone work during the construction of the king's tomb, because at that time, it was necessary to intercept the large and small water veins in the insect valley and dig the mountain from the bottom of the pond upward.
At this moment, I heard the sound of water splashing behind me again, and I turned to see that the fat man was coming up from under the water, and did not have the spotlight on the opening cover, nor did he meet us as usual, but stood silently in the water, inseparable from us, and the body exposed to the water hid in the dark, and the light on my helmet did not shine on his face.
When I saw his abnormal behavior, my heart was half cold, and I hurriedly jumped at him in the water, and asked, "Why don't you turn on the tactical spotlight of the helmet?" What do you want to do in the dark? ”
Without waiting for the fat man to answer, I had already jumped in front of him, the light on my helmet was just shining on the fat man's big face, the fat man just sneered at me, and the hand that was not in the water suddenly beckoned, and at some point in his hand, he had already taken out the bright "paratrooper knife".
The laughter made my skin shudder, and I was horrified, how could the fat man smile like a woman, who was this person? At this moment, I realized that it seemed that after the sky was completely dark, the fat man had never spoken to us, and he was always hiding behind not far behind and muttering something, but on the top of the glass of the heavenly palace, I had tried it with glutinous rice, if it was really possessed by a powerful ghost, why was the glutinous rice useless? The blade of the "Paratrooper Knife" was reflected by the light source on me and Shirley Yang's body, like a pool of autumn water, wrapped in a silver light, and cut down from it.
All this happened for a short moment, and Shirley Yang was also frightened by this sudden turn of events, and exclaimed, "Be careful."
I saw the fat man swinging his knife at me, and I knew that if I really fought with him, it would be difficult to put the fat man down, and I had to shoot quickly, without the slightest hesitation, and immediately used the "grappling hand" that I had practiced in the army, and I took advance as retreat, rubbed my body and threw myself at him, grabbing his right shoulder with one hand. The other hand slammed his elbow joint, and before his arm could exert his strength, he first eliminated his force point, and as soon as his hands touched him, he concentrated the strength of his whole body on his right shoulder, and slammed it into it, knocking the fat man to the ground.
I took the fat man's "paratrooper knife" and clamped his body between my legs, only letting him expose his head to the water, thinking that this fat guy must have been caught by a ghost, and as soon as it was dark, he revealed his original form, and wanted to murder our lives.
I shouted at the "fat man" and asked, "You ghost-turned-bitch dare to hurt people, let you eat a black donkey's hooves first." As he spoke, he wanted to take out the black donkey's hooves from the carrying bag, but he touched it and touched it, and the glutinous rice was gone, and it turned out that my share was thrown out in the "Lingyun Heavenly Palace", and there was nothing left.
The fat man was still laughing on the waterway, and the ghostly woman's laughter echoed between the stone walls of the tomb, and I scolded: "If you fucking laugh again, don't blame Lao Tzu for being unkind, I still have a bunch of peach wood nails that I haven't made......"
Shirley Yang saw me and the fat man fighting together, although the fight was fierce but very short, but there was a lot of weirdness in it, so he blurted out: "Old Hu, don't do it first, the fat man is very weird."
I pressed down on the fat man, who was struggling and squealing loudly, and said to Shirley Young in the midst of my busy schedule: "Of course he's weird, he'...... He's *** ghosted, you have to think of a way, I can't hold him down. ”
Shirley Yang said: "It's not a ghost, it's his vocal cords or tongue problems, the birthplace of the head lowering technique in ancient times is in southern Yunnan, and there is a kind of tongue drop that controls people's vocalizations, similar to the tongue cup in Thailand." ”
As Shirley Yang spoke, he had already taken out the dark red "corpse cord", wanting to work with me to catch the fat man first, and then look at the pry open teeth to see what was on his tongue.
I just saw the fat ghost on his body, a little anxious, at this time I heard shirley Yang said, only to find that the fat man is indeed strange, he kept laughing in his mouth, but the expression on his face was very panicked, and the ghost laughed completely, didn't he lose consciousness, just now he wanted to pull out a knife and cut his tongue? I thought he wanted to stab me with a knife and threw him to the ground, but since he didn't lose consciousness, why didn't he make it clear to me, but hid behind him and made trouble?
When I thought of this, I immediately understood, stopped Shirley Yang, there was no need to tie him up for the time being, I knew too well what the fat man was, and scolded the fat man: "Are you *** poor and crazy, let me ask you, have you taken the sheep by the hand and taken out something from that witch robe?" ”
The fat man smiled angrily, but his eyes slanted over, looking at the leather bag on his chest, blinking again and again, that was the "treasure bag" we found in the fishbone temple, always taken by the fat man's side, I immediately reached out to the bag and touched it, and took out a black and swarthy item, narrow and flat, one side is a flat head, the other side is a sharp semicircle, touch it with your hand, it feels hard and tough, the surface has been a little jade, and there are a few milky white circles on the flat head, which are illuminated by the light of the mountaineering helmet, There was a faint layer of red and yellow dull color inside.
I didn't see what it was for a while, and I held it up and said, "Is this some jade?" Black jade is quite rare. ”
Shirley Young said, "No, it's the human tongue...... The tongue of the woman in the Yi people.
I heard that this was a human tongue, and I almost accidentally dropped it into the water, and hurriedly threw this dehydrated and blackened, jade-like "tongue" to Shirley Yang, and said to her: "I am a little allergic to this thing, you can take it first......"
When Shirley Yang was about to reach out to pick it up, in the depths of the tomb road, probably in the direction of the underground palace, there was a piercing shrill laugh, as if the ghost in the "Heavenly Palace" had entered the lair of the Hades Temple, Shirley Yang was also frightened by the strange laughter and withdrew his hand, and the "tongue" fell into waist-deep lacquer water.
