Chapter 155: The Same Nameplate
As I went deeper, the air became more and more humid, and the yin qi became more and more intense, but the corpse qi was still the same, so thin that it was not like words, and I still didn't smell the rancid smell.
I have read Master's "Examination of the Walking Dead", which says that among the evil corpses, only the corpses and immortal bones have no smell on their bodies because their bodies have stopped decaying, and the immortal bones with higher minds can even hide the corpse qi on their bodies. But whether it is a corpse or a boneless, once it appears, the black water corpse coffin can sense it.
And it was also mentioned in the "Walking Corpse Record" that once the black water corpse coffin senses the corpse and the immortal bones, the person carrying the black water coffin will feel great pressure. But at the moment, I don't feel that way.
Seeing that there was no one around, I tried to communicate with Xian'er: "Xian'er, are you awake?" ”
At first, Xian'er didn't respond, but after a few seconds, her voice came to my head: "What? ”
Her voice sounded a little languid, as if she had just woken up.
To be honest, in such an environment, I will be a little nervous in my heart, just want to talk to her and strengthen my courage.
I replied, "It's okay, just wake up." ”
But Xian'er got out of my shoulder at this time. In this place, there was no other source of light except the straight light from the flashlight, but when Xian'er came out of my shoulder, I could see her very clearly.
In fact, I discovered a long time ago that the Eye of Heaven can see spirits even in places where there is no light. It didn't seem to be seeing with my eyes in the true sense of the word, but the form of a spirit that could pass through my retina and project directly into my brain in a special form.
After Xian'er came out, she first glanced at me, then she glanced at the surrounding environment, and asked me with a wicked smile: "Yo, looking at the black lights in the place, you asked me to come out, it won't be that you have some crooked brains." Hmph, lonely man and widow, what do you want to do? ”
I also gave her a blank look, thinking that I didn't let you out.
Xian'er ignored me, she shrugged her nose, sniffed the air here, and suddenly said, "Why does this place smell of filth, has anyone ever stayed here?" ”
"Filth, what filth?" I asked Xian'er.
Xian'er looked at me angrily and said, "It's excrement." Alas, really, I have to be so blunt. ”
How can there be that smell here?
I wondered in my heart, and I also learned from the fairy, shrugged my nose and sniffed carefully, but unfortunately, my sense of smell and the fairy born from the fox demon are obviously not at the same level, and I didn't smell anything.
I asked Xian'er, "If you smell it again, where did that smell come from?" ”
"You treat me as a dog!" Xian'er was already glaring at me with apricot eyes wide at this time, but after she finished glaring at me, she stretched out her right hand again, pointed to my right side, and said, "Over there." ”
When she said these two words, she deliberately dragged her voice very long, as if she was reluctant to show me the way.
I said to her, "Do me a favor and go back and treat you to ice cream." ”
Xian'er sighed helplessly: "Alas, for the sake of the ice cream...... Walk five meters in that direction. ”
As she spoke, she reached out again and gestured twice towards her position.
She can smell even a few meters, this nose is definitely smarter than a dog's nose.
I took a few steps in the direction of Xian'er's finger, shining my flashlight on the ground all the time, for fear of stepping on something unclean.
But I was too careful, and all the way down, there was nothing on the ground except that pure black soil.
After walking about five meters, I was faced with an equally dark stone wall.
I touched it with my hands, and I found that this stone wall was very smooth, like a mirror, but other than that, there was no other abnormality, so I asked Xian'er, "Didn't you say that there is ...... here?" Is it filthy, how is it a wall that is blocked? ”
Xian'er raised her chin at the wall and said to me, "Right behind this wall." I said, what are you looking for those things for? It's weird, disgusting. ”
I said, "Don't you feel what's going on in my heart?" This kind of question needs to be asked. ”
Xian'er snorted sullenly and said, "Your Dao is so much higher than before, sometimes I can sense what you are thinking, sometimes I can't." Alas, I guess in another two or three years, I won't be able to perceive what you're thinking at all? ”
It turns out that as I improve my Taoism, it will become more and more difficult for Xian'er to perceive what I am thinking, which is tantamount to a great piece of good news for me.
Anyway, the feeling of being watched casually is really uncomfortable.
After that, Xian'er said to me again, "Don't look for those things, it's disgusting." ”
While groping around on the stone wall, trying to see if there was a mechanism on it, I said to Xian'er, "You think I'm looking for it." But in any case, I'm going to see with my own eyes what the filth you are talking about, and if it's really human excrement, it means that this place has been visited, and if not, it might be even more troublesome. I remember Master said that there is probably a big demon in the evil tomb in the back mountain, whether it is a big demon or not, there must be living beings in the evil tomb, otherwise I won't feel angry when I touch my teeth......
Speaking of this, I suddenly remembered the "carrying corpse" that Master had taught me, so I immediately resonated with the Black Water Corpse Coffin, and then concentrated the Qi field of the Black Water Corpse Coffin on my fingertips, and then used my fingertips to touch the stone wall in front of me.
I don't know if it's because my path is too shallow, or because I can't control the technique of carrying corpses well, when the fingertips of the black water corpse coffin Qi Field touch the stone wall again, I still can't perceive more things than I can feel the smooth touch on the stone wall.
Somewhat frustrated, I retracted the coffin of the Black Water Corpse and continued to fumble carefully on the wall.
I walked slowly to the left along the wall, and after a while, I felt a hole in the wall, because the color of the hole was the same as the stone wall, it was pure black, and it was indeed difficult to find it if I had not touched the edge of the hole.
The hole is very shallow, about a meter deep, but the horizontal space in the hole is very large, I walked into the hole, the beam of the rear flashlight to the ground on the right, I found that there was a large area of filth on the ground, fortunately I saw the picture at that time was not as disgusting as I imagined, because the ground was sprinkled with thick lime, and I didn't smell any disgusting.
After leaving the cave, I groped around the stone wall for a while and found three more caves.
The first cave contains some uneaten canned food; The second cave is filled with household garbage, mostly canned boxes and mineral water bottles left over from eating; The third cave is relatively large, with more than a dozen people's bedding and some washing things.
This place has indeed been inhabited. In terms of beds, at least a dozen people had boarded in this place, and I visualized the household garbage in the second cave, and judging by the volume of the garbage, I felt that those people had been boarding here for more than a month.
Senior Brother Bao had speculated before that the person who attacked Li Daochang that night was likely to have been ambushed in the village a long time ago.
It turns out that Senior Brother Bao is right.
The steel nail nailed to the wall of the well should prove that the people who stayed here before should have been the same group of people who attacked Li Daochang.
Then I went back to the cave with the beds, looking for any other clues, and before entering the cave, I asked the fairy to wait for me outside.
There's no way around it, Xian'er always talks to me when she's with me, and my train of thought is often interrupted by her.
The humidity in the air was so heavy that every quilt was damp, and the skin on my hands was quickly soaked as I turned over the quilts and pillows. I don't know how those people live in such a place.
I found that they didn't seem to be idle here, and under a few pillows, I turned out some damp playing cards, magazines, and the like, and there was an old photo of three people under the pillow, and in terms of age, it should be a family photo of a pair of parents and children, but what makes people feel strange is that these three people, both adults and children, have black watercolor on their faces, and I can't see their faces at all.
I searched for clues all the way to a bed in the deepest part of the cavern, and under the pillow of this bed, I found something I least wanted to see at this time.
It was a metal nameplate with a Chinese character and a number: Fu-981.
When I saw the words on the nameplate, all the goosebumps on my body rose in an instant.
I can't tell if I was shocked or frightened, but it felt like someone had punched an iron nail into my spine and kept me moving.
Could it be that the people who are now embedded in Huangjiazhuang belong to the same organization as those mercenaries in the Dragon King's Tomb?
At this moment, Xian'er suddenly ran in and said to me, "Come out and see, I have made a new discovery." ”
When she came in, she saw the nameplate in my hand and asked me, "What is this?" ”
I handed the nameplate to Xian'er and said to her, "The mercenaries we met outside the Dragon King's Tomb last time had such a sign on each of them. ”
When I was in the Dragon King's Tomb before, Xian'er was in a deep sleep the whole time, but she was not ignorant of the things I experienced inside and outside the tomb.
I don't know how Xian'er knew about that, I asked her, but she seemed to be very shy about talking about it, so she never explained it to me.
Xian'er took the nameplate and looked at it carefully, pursed her lips and said, "This is the kind of nameplate you said?" Nothing unusual. Aren't those people mercenaries, maybe Huang Changping or Huang Changgui hired them this time. ”
I said to Xian'er, "Don't you think it's too much of a coincidence? ”
Xian'er nodded: "It's quite a coincidence, maybe the evil tomb in the back mountain of the old Huang family has something to do with the Dragon King Tomb in Erlong Bay." ”
