Chapter 9: The sarcophagus
Early the next morning, one person ate a bowl of noodles, carried a bag down the mountain, and pretended to sneak in the mountain. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info Then, after going around the forest for half an hour, he caught a dirt butt, and after beating him to death, he skinned it and put it in a durable plastic bag to attract the red-tailed lin, and by the way, he also took off the clothes on the skeleton of a corpse he encountered on the way.
Arriving at the col, we had no trouble finding the entrance to the wormhole.
This entrance is in the woods halfway up the mountainside, and the entrance becomes very narrow because of the two ancient pines growing in front of it.
We took some of the local materials, picked up some pine resin from the ground, and then tore the dead man's clothes into strips and tied the pine resin to a stick to make a torch.
Everything was ready, Huzi was the first to walk into the hole, followed by the master, Liu Jingao, and the God of Wealth.
The cave was dark, damp, and silent, with a foul smell of bat droppings and a pungent smell like ammonia.
The God of Wealth suddenly slipped under his feet, and almost sat down, but he held on to the uneven stone wall in time. However, the walls are covered in a dirty layer of slime, which is translucent, and there are tiny white larvae wriggling inside. The God of Wealth looked at the disgusting thing that he couldn't shake off with one hand, and complained: "Fourth brother, I don't object to you killing those bastards, but don't make yourself so embarrassed." What are the places you chose? If you have a flashlight, you don't need a torch, and you can't see a pit in the ground. ”
I said, "There are several kinds of poisonous insects hidden in this hole, and there is no fire, and they will pounce on you and tear your face apart." "I chose this place for a reason, once I came, I took a trip here, I want to make them immortal and useless, and I am definitely not in the mood to trouble us again." Second, I designed to frame them if they were seen, and they would be in trouble, so I had to choose this kind of hidden environment to lure them in. Third, this wormhole is a secret place in bed theory, and I have long wanted to explore it. ”
The God of Wealth looked incredulous: "Really? The second and third reasons are understandable, but the first reason is that the bug is so powerful? What does that bug look like? ”
I asked curiously, "Don't you have it in your hands?" I thought you knew. ”
As soon as the God of Wealth heard this, he immediately understood that the larvae on his hands were the larvae of the red-tailed scales, and quickly wiped his hands vigorously on his clothes. However, it was not right to get the clothes, so I took off my coat and threw it on the ground.
The entrance to the wormhole is narrow, but there is a cave inside, and Liu Jingao, who was walking in front, was shocked by the sudden discovery. "Fourth master, come and take a look! Fourth master, look what this is! Liu Jingao urged.
The God of Wealth and I quickened our pace to keep up. It turned out that at the end of the entrance, at first glance, there was a stone chamber. However, it is more like a burial chamber, because a peculiar sarcophagus sits quietly in the center.
Let's call him the Stone Chamber for the time being. The stone chamber is about eight meters in diameter, and the chamber is empty, with only a stone coffin on the soft sandy floor. And this sarcophagus alone is amazing. The bottom of the coffin is not directly touching the ground, but four bronze statues of the baby are raised with both hands.
The four babies grinned and looked at them with a fierce light that made them dare not look at them directly.
The God of Wealth walked around the sarcophagus, holding his chin and looking up: "What kind of coffin is this?" Below are four babies, and on the lid of the coffin lies a woman with a snake-headed human body, and some completely incomprehensible inscriptions are engraved on the side. However, without looking at this woman's head, this figure is really okay. Hehe, the person who made this coffin must be an old color. Hell, everything is naked. ”
The master handed me the torch, took out her archaeological equipment, picked up the spider webs on the side of the sarcophagus with her hands, swept the dust with a small brush, read it carefully, and said: "This is the Qin seal, what is written on it seems to be a spell, it's best not to read it, so as not to cause trouble." ”
The master was a little appetizing, and the God of Wealth was not very happy: "Oh, I said master, we haven't heard or seen anything when we go south and north, hurry up and read it, as long as we don't recruit Lord Yama from hell, we can deal with it." ”
The master hesitated for a while and looked at the inscription and said: "There is a line of words on each side of the sarcophagus, the left side reads 'Death is only the beginning of new life', and the right side reads 'Hundred ghosts sacrifice gods and Buddhas to avoid'." ”
"Yo!" The God of Wealth was unconvinced: "Who wrote this, a hundred ghosts have to sacrifice to the gods and Buddhas?" I've got to see who's in this coffin box. "Huzi, take a hand!"
The God of Wealth thrust the torch into the ground, lifted his sleeves, and then grabbed the end of the coffin lid with both hands, and suddenly made a force...... However, the coffin was not moved.
"Hey. The lid is still tight. The God of Wealth urged: "Huzi, don't move the pestle." ”
Huzi glanced at me and wanted to know my attitude. I glanced at my master again, wondering her attitude.
There was a trace of concern on the master's face, but she was also looking forward to seeing the inside of the coffin, she usually worked hard to find historical materials and mysterious things, and now she was reluctant to leave. So he said, "Everyone bring gas masks, just in case, and ...... I really don't know what's in this coffin, let's take out any self-defense equipment. ”
What the master said made people suddenly feel very uncomfortable, what does it mean to not know what is in the coffin, this is not clear to say that there may be anything in the coffin. What's there?
