Chapter 20: The Ghost Eye
Then Wu Ming told us that his eyes have been like this since he was a child, and if he has great mood swings or is seriously injured, he will emit a golden glow, which is a phenomenon that even science cannot explain. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
And these special eyes are also the hallmark of their family, and only one child born in each generation will have such eyes. Such children seem to be much smarter than their peers, and many things can be understood at a glance, but the only unfortunate person who has these eyes will die early, and some will even die inexplicably.
The Wu family has been the guardian of a secret for generations, but after thousands of years of continuation, the secret has long ceased to exist, and it can only be deduced from the words of the ancestors that this secret is very likely to be the shocking secret buried in the five cold irons cast by the swordsmith Ou Zhizi for the Yue King Goujian.
When he said this, I suddenly remembered the story about my grandfather that my second uncle told me, and the masked man who was with my grandfather and them at that time should be Wu Ming's ancestor. Originally, I wanted to say this matter in an instant, but no matter what the ancestors of the people said, they also died because of protecting their grandfather, and if I said it regardless of it, it might bring trouble to the second and third uncles, and it would also increase the estrangement between Wu Ming and them.
Just when I hesitated, he said that the reason why the eyes of the Wu family are like this is that it has a lot to do with this shocking secret. Just half a month ago, the bad old man came to him with half of the Southern Song Dynasty silk book, saying that he was coming to find the secret about Ou Zhizi's five cold irons.
What really caught his attention was that one of the eyes painted on the back of the silk book was exactly the same as the eye depicted on the wall of the Wu family.
The fundamental reason why he joined the tomb robbery this time is also to seek the secret of the eye, if the secret of the eye is found, then the secret that the family has guarded for generations will naturally be known.
But in this tomb robbery, his body will always suddenly have chills and heat, so that sometimes he can't control the reaction of his eyes at all, just like we can see that it will emit light, and then it will bring him a huge pain, and even a coma, just like when he first entered the tomb, which he has never seen in the past tomb robbery activities.
And then I just said that I saw an eye that appeared out of thin air in my sleep, which is very similar to him, and from this series of things, it seems that they will definitely be able to find the secret of the eye when they come to rob this Song Sleeve tomb this time.
Although I heard it a little foggy, I still understood it in general, after all, Wu Ming also came for the secret buried in the cold iron. The bad old man did not hesitate to say that he came for the secret of Han Tie, according to the blind man Chen, he is also for this purpose nine times out of ten, then my second uncle and third uncle should be it.
I couldn't help but wonder what kind of secret Oujiko had left in the ancient sword that attracted so many people to pursue it. And why does this secret have to be hidden in the ancient sword, does it mean that this secret can't be seen by people, then wouldn't it be better to bring it directly into the loess and bury it in the ground.
The third fat man was an outsider, and he listened to it even more inexplicably, so he said: "What kind of cold iron is not cold iron, how can I not know?" Besides, if that thing doesn't turn to ashes sooner, it's still waiting for us to use it. And what are you talking about eyes, are they such eyes? ”
I looked at the place he pointed, and I was suddenly shocked in place, and Wu Ming and the little brother in black also gasped. The stone walls on both sides of the dark passage are full of eyes at some point, dense and creepy. If you look closely, you can see that they are arranged according to the size of the open and closed eyes, and there are hundreds of them.
I was frightened too much along the way, and my head was naturally a little numb, but when I saw such a scene, not to mention panic, the diaphragm should still exist somewhat, and I also have a slight dense phobia, and when I saw so many pairs of eyes at once, I couldn't help but feel sick to my stomach.
The three fat men glanced at me and said: "I'll just say, you are not suitable for the big pillar to come to the next fight, you are like this when you see a few stone carved eyes, if you let you see that you are alive, you will not have to vomit yourself." Turn your face away and don't look at it, and let Grandpa Fat count how many there are for you. After he finished speaking, he touched those eyes, and at that moment I seemed to be in a trance, and I felt that I saw the hands of the three fat men and was eaten by the eyes in an instant, so I wanted to hold him. Unfortunately, he was a step too late, and his hand had already touched the stone wall.
Suddenly, he instantly retracted his hand, his face turned pale, and he said in a trembling voice: "If I say that these eyes are really fucking alive, do you believe it or not?" ”
I suddenly became terrified, and my eyes could clearly see that it was carved into the stone wall, and he did not blink, how could I say that it was alive.
Wu Ming first closed his eyes and was silent for a while, and then slowly stretched out his hand to the eyes engraved on the stone wall as if he had made some major decision, and immediately retracted after a slight touch, and said to us: "What Xiao Yu said is true. "I didn't react to who Xiao Yu was for a while, so I followed their example to touch those eyes, but just when I was about to meet them, I suddenly reacted that Xiao Yu is not a three fat man, Wu Ming said that what he said was right, that is to say, these eyes are really alive.
I immediately flicked my hands away and looked at Wu Ming in fear, while he stared at those eyes tightly. Under normal circumstances, the tissue cells in the eyeball will die if they are removed alone, and it is impossible for them to survive at all. And these eyes in front of me are indeed carved on the stone wall, why do Wu Ming and the three fat men say that it is alive, although I want to touch it in my heart, I still can't reach out my hand. All of a sudden, I was scared, what if I reached over and touched them and saw that they were pulsing?
We stood half-hunched down in the dark tunnel and looked at those horrible eyes, and everyone wanted to figure out what was going on, but none of us could think of anything.
After a while, the three fat men said: "Otherwise, if we pry open this stone wall and take a look, maybe we are scaring ourselves, there must be some mechanism hidden in it to control these eyes." ”
The three fat men are typical pragmatists, and they will find all kinds of ways to solve problems when they encounter them, but he obviously didn't think about the problem clearly, this stone wall is built up layer by layer, and it is not a simple thing to come up with, and this dark passage is also hollowed out of the mountain peak, if it is blown up with explosives, it will inevitably cause the collapse of the dark passage, and when the time comes, I can't see what is behind the stone wall, and we may be buried under the collapsed stones, so even if there is the power to return to the sky, it will not help.
Seeing that we didn't agree with his statement, he hurriedly said: "Then what else can we do, then we have to pretend not to see it?" But it is alive, and if we don't figure it out now, it will be us who will bring disaster and suffer when the time comes. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the little brother in black said vigilantly: "Look, it's changing." ”
I turned my head and saw that the eyes were really rolling wildly, in no particular order. And I also noticed that the eyes were constantly decreasing as they turned, from a few hundred to only a few dozen. But it turned faster and faster, dazzling, and finally so fast that it was impossible to see its movement with the naked eye.
This situation lasted for more than a minute, and the rotating eyes slowly coincided, and in the end, only one remained, which was infinitely enlarged, and the distribution of tissues inside the eyes could be seen clearly.
I leaned against the wall to prop up my body that was about to slide, the scene just now was really unimaginable, it was so unbelievable that I would not have believed it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes.
The third fat man was also frightened, and asked tremblingly, "What the hell is going on here?" ”
At this time, the eye on the stone wall began to turn again, and it moved to the left inch by inch, looking at Wu Ming who was standing on my left. I know that Wu Ming is also frightened, although he didn't show it like me and the three fat people, but it can be seen from the movement of his hands grasping the corners of his clothes that he is actually very nervous in his heart.
I looked at the huge eye again, it was still looking at Wu Ming, as if it was exploring, revealing a little doubt. After a while, my pupils opened slightly, and I knew that it was a physical instinct to see something I liked, a phenomenon of consciousness reflected through my eyes.
Wu Ming suddenly relaxed at this time, and I felt that the heavy atmosphere on my left hand disappeared all of a sudden. He looked at that eye calmly, without speaking or making any unnecessary movements.
A few seconds later, the eye vanished out of thin air.
The three fat men sat heavily on the ground, panting and said, "Damn, I really can't stand it." ”
I sat down on the ground with him and took out the water and poured it a few times, thinking that this kind of thing would happen a few more times, and it would have to scare people crazy.
Wu Ming said: "I don't think what we see is true, it's just an illusion. ”
The three fat men immediately retorted: "It's impossible, I really feel that those eyes are alive, and you can see that they will turn." ”
Wu Ming looked straight at him and said, "Think about it, how many illusions we have encountered along the way. ”
After hearing this, I was shocked, thinking that from the time we entered the mountain to the present, we have indeed encountered many illusions. The trick of the bad old man's men in the valley was caused by the illusion caused by the fog, and what I saw after the three fat men knocked me out was also an illusion, and the small palace we saw in the main burial chamber was also generated by illusions, and even the dream I had could be said to be a fantasy.
In this tomb, visions appear again and again, and disappear again and again, what is going on?
