Chapter Seventy-Three: The Stone Statue Foreshadows 3
I kept writing and drawing in my notebook, and the cold sweat kept pouring down, and I didn't feel anything when I didn't discuss or associate it, but this analysis suddenly appeared so many things that we ignored. www.biquge.info I can't help but feel deeply ashamed of our "idiot" combination, and if I didn't know these things that were buried behind the scenes, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Wu Ming also saw my thoughts, he smiled lightly, and then adjusted the posture of sitting on the ground, the whole person was completely relaxed, and leaned on the wall of the earth cave with all the strength of his body, one hand along the body on the bent body, and the other hand drooped naturally, boringly playing with the broken pebbles on the ground.
"It's true that we didn't think about these things well, but it's not too late to think about them," he said. Although Wu Ming seemed to have such a sentence, the shock in my heart was extremely great. When he said this, his expression was very relaxed, his face was no longer the usual flat look, his eyes were slightly open, not smiling but there was an indescribable peace, as if he was chatting with an old friend.
Thinking about it this way, I also subconsciously think that what we have ignored before should really not have much effect.
But what we said at that time was not wrong, the only thing I got wrong was that He Beichen was not Wu Ming, and Wu Ming was not He Beichen at that time.
In other words, what Wu Ming can ignore and not value does not mean that I can also ignore and not pay attention to it. Of course, this is also the truth that I only figured out after a few years, but after a few years, I didn't grow up according to Wu Ming's standards, I just obeyed myself and grew into the He family's shop.
After Wu Ming finished speaking, he readjusted his sitting posture, the hazy and lazy just now seemed to be non-existent for a moment, and he became the head of the Wu family who made others more taboo at a young age on the road.
I lost my mind for a moment, Wu Ming's transformation will also directly illustrate the seriousness of the situation, his behavior is just an indirect reflection of the things we are asking to encounter in front of us, we don't need to worry about the things we missed before, but what about the things we encountered later?
At this time, Wu Ming said: "Go on, let's go on." β
Everyone nodded thoughtfully.
Fifth, not long after entering the mountains, we encountered those bully stone statues cast around the mountain, and in an expanded sense, it should be the first time we have seen about ancient tombs in this tomb robbery. Strictly speaking, it should be the only time we have seen something related to the ancient tomb, but the scope is too wide and the amplitude is too large, and naturally, we didn't pay too much attention to its existence when we entered the mountain.
I still remember walking forty or fifty meters to the east around the building of the stone statue out of curiosity, but I saw the exact same stone statue and gave up.
When I think about it now, I remember a point that I unconsciously misunderstood. In fact, those bully stone statues are not all the same, it is just a visual effect. The reason why I feel that they are exactly the same in my mind, and that they have not even changed, is because the builders have done something to the stone statues.
In layman's terms, it is the builder who changed the "appearance" of those stone statues. The same stone statue has not changed, but the stone statue is placed around the mountain, since it is necessary to form a circle or have a trend, the "placement" of each stone statue will not be the same.
Therefore, there are two situations reflected by the bully statue. First, assuming that the stone statue is in a circle around the mountain, then our initial guess is correct, this is a symbol of dominating territory, and the purpose of this is naturally to warn future generations not to act willfully. Second, if the bully stone statues do not form a circle, it is just a trend, then in the placement of those stone statues, there is a hidden university question. If I had been careful to see where the eyes of the stone statue were looking, I would have been able to peek into the little secrets.
But in either case, it's certain that there must be a reason why the bully stone statue is placed, and that is guarding.
Now that I think about it, the appearance of the stone statue and the image of the cannibal in my mind still somewhat overlap, especially the eyes. It is often said that the eyes are the windows of the soul, and this sentence is true, a person's heart can indeed be reflected from the eyes. The stone statues I looked at had cold, cold, no warmth, and glowed with bloodthirst. And then it's empty, no confusion or joy, complete numbness. Shouldn't the cannibal's eyes be like this, it's a consequence of transcending the ontology and the spirit, a walking corpse-like existence.
Sixth, after a long walk through the dense rainforest, we unfortunately got into a cannibalistic situation again. There are clearly traces of people around the man-eating flower and the ground spider, otherwise where did the red blood stains in the white bones and the body of the ground spider come from?
This also directly verifies our previous guess, the people in Uncle Guide's village have entered this forest in the future, otherwise we wouldn't have seen so many piles of bones. Tomb robbers like us alone would not have been able to create such a grand occasion in any case. If all the people in these piles of bones were here in search of wealth, then it would not have been possible for this matter not to be revealed to the Tao at all, in which case this mountain would have already had a name, such as "Cannibal Mountain" or something.
And the guide uncle also asked us to help him find his lost friend after we entered the mountain, and when he opened his mouth, I felt strange, the person who was lost at his own door could not go back? Furthermore, can a normal person be lost at his own doorstep? The answer is undoubtedly yes. So, in other words, the lost person does not want to go back, but because he can't go back for some reason, he can't go back at all. Looking at the pair of white bones next to the man-eating flower, the lost person must be one of them.
In fact, in the countryside, people are relatively simple and kind, and once something happens, they will definitely be able to unite. But I am afraid that the only thing that can be separated from unity is money and life and death. If not, why don't they join forces to find the inexplicably lost villagers? Thinking about it this way, all kinds of theories confirm that the villagers know the horror of the forest, and this horror is the man-eating flower and the ground spider.
Seventh, it's the final level of our tomb robbery, and we have found the clues prompted by the black box. If we take the clue literally, our current position is absolutely correct, in fact, we are not sure of the description of the center, after all, we only came in through a small opening in the forest, but the existence of the artificial lake is a proof of the existence of the most center, the three fat men climbed a tall tree out of boredom and looked around, and what he said at that time was: "I'll go, the damn thing looks like all around now, and I'll go down to the tomb and fool around for a while to see how you get out in the end." β
At that time, I also teased him a little: "I don't know if Mr. Lu Xun said that there is no road in the world, and after people have walked it, it will become a road?" β
Besides, encountering the Scarface gang should be regarded as an accident within an accident, and if you have to say that the source should be that kind of pleasant episode or something. I've never seen a person in the tomb robbery business be so "naΓ―ve and indifferent", this type of person is nothing more than two states, either pretending not to understand anything in order to hide some bigger secret, or really stupid.
On this issue, the three fat men and I both agreed that they were really stupid, and it was impossible for a normal and discerning person to pretend to be stupid and believe it casually. But as the saying goes, a person who pretends to be asleep will never wake up, so you should still be skeptical about the existence of these people, and their appearance by the artificial lake is not necessarily accidental, and it must be because of some "inconvenient disclosure" reasons.
Then after Wu Ming's "seeing" hole, he entered the tomb and encountered corpses and piranhas. This is an essential part of the tomb robbery operation, and it is normal. But I was still a little surprised when we went down to the entrance of the tomb, to say that the membrane between the tomb and the lake was a sticky thing, which closed when it was exposed to water and opened when it was pressed by external forces. But where there is water, wind, and woods, it is inevitable that there will be some natural phenomena of wind and rain, can it be said that this thin diaphragm has not cracked under the pressure of the water column at the bottom of the lake?
Or is it not at all what we think, to count it as a paranormal event. Once you have the consciousness to go inside, it will follow the consciousness to help you get to the state you want. Then I would like a crate of gold, but I don't know if it will follow my consciousness to me. The third fat man saw that I was smiling treacherously, so he slapped me on the head and said: "Big pillar, don't blame the fat grandfather, I didn't remind you, now is the critical moment to think about the problem, don't always think of some good things that can be expressed by facial expressions." It's a shame that you've been claiming to be some kind of highly educated person, so don't you hurry up and use my brains for me. β
I put away the "stupid smile" on my face and said: "Nothing, so far we have encountered such a little thing, it seems that it has nothing to do with what we are looking for, but there is a deep connection behind everything, if you want me to say, the most powerful point is that the stone statue indicates that it must point to this ancient tomb."
