Chapter 43: Desperate
The big white girl and I worked hard against the stone gate, the stone door in this side room is already our last line of defense, if we let the white snake in, then we can only be captured. After the big white snake hit the outside a few times, the stone gate calmed down, and the big white girl and I had time to catch our breath and rest.
The two of us looked at each other, and we both had a sense of the aftermath of the catastrophe. Now that the monks are gone, the two of us are on our own. However, the big white snake no longer slammed against the stone gate, which made my heart even more uneasy. Because there's that two-faced baby hiding in the shadows, and who knows if it's going to come up with something to do us.
But there was nothing we could do at this time, so we had to look at the words on the stone tablet while facing the stone gate. The first sentence on this stele indicates that this is Zhu Chun's tomb, could it be that the coffin in the middle tomb is Zhu Chun himself? But isn't this tomb too shabby for a vassal king?
I continued to read, and when I finally finished reading the words on the stele, I was shocked beyond measure. Although people in ancient times were fond of superstition and nonsense, most of the time there was some basis for it. However, after reading the things recorded on this stone tablet, I didn't dare to imagine the truth of this matter at all.
This stele says that Zhu Chun came to this island with a team of soldiers under the guidance of a senior monk. After many tribulations, an ancient ruin was found in the center of the island and the Buddha was seen there. Zhu Chun talked with the monk in detail all night, and then Zhu Chun went back alone and left the soldiers to build an ancient tomb here.
After Zhu Chun got the guidance of the senior monk, he buried himself here, and it turned out to be a living burial! This Zhu Chun buried himself here before he died. At the end of the stele it is said that Zhu Chun will be reborn as a Buddha in a thousand years and ascend to Elysium.
Who is that monk is not recorded on the stone tablet, but this Zhu Chun was able to give up his identity as a vassal king or even his own life to pursue an ethereal death, what did the monk tell him? No matter what they said between them, Zhu Chun would never bury himself here alive because of a monk's empty flickering, and that monk must have let Zhu Chun see what evidence worth believing made this vassal king of the Zhu family so aggressive and desperate.
If what is written on this stele is true, then there may be a shocking secret hidden here. I adjusted my breathing and brought myself back to reality. We've been cornered now, and whatever secrets are here, it only makes sense for me to live them.
The big white snake didn't know where it went, and for a while, I didn't know what to do with the big white girl. Just as I was about to open the stone door and look out, there was a sudden noise behind the stele, and before I could react, a white snake's head poked out from behind the stele.
It was too late to open the stone gate and run out, so I stood in front of the big white girl and lifted the sapper shovel. At this time, only I will block this big white snake first, and let the big white girl have a chance to shoot, and we will have hope of survival.
While staring at the movement of the big white snake, I whispered to the big white girl: "Lisha, if I confront this big worm for a while, you have to see it clearly, don't hit it on the head for a while, and call it all to my ass." ”
Lisa gave me a soft gnew behind me, but I wasn't very sure about her marksmanship, she was able to miss two shots just now, and now that she was on guard, it was even more difficult to kill her. But now she can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and all her hopes are pressed on the gun in her hand.
Before we could lay out our tactics, the big white snake had already raised its head and pounced on us. Having seen its terrifying speed, I had been prepared for it this time, and when it raised its head, I was ready to jump to the side. But I can't let it rush over, because the big white girl is still behind me, and if something happens to her, we'll really be wiped out.
I took a step to the side, and before it could rush over, I picked up the shovel and sliced it directly at the snake's head. Last time, because I had no experience, I slapped it on the head of a snake. Although it was also stunned by me, I was hurt more and flew out directly.
This time, I directly split the head of the big white snake into a bloody mark, and its body in the air was directly stopped by me. But I didn't feel good either, this guy weighed too much, and I used all my strength at that moment, and both wrists were numb.
Before I could react, the big white snake shook its head and arched me out. When I was still in the air, I heard a gunshot and before the gunfire was over, I had a pain in the back of my head and fainted.
When I woke up again, I saw the big white girl sitting next to me and I didn't know what I was thinking. I whispered softly, trying to sit up but I didn't have any strength in my body. When the big white girl saw that I was awake, she came to my side and helped me up.
After feeding me a few sips of water, I slowly came to my senses. Rubbing my numb head, I asked, "Is that big worm dead?" ”
The big white girl nodded and said to me, "Dead, or the two of us will have to chat in the belly of the snake." ”
I don't have the heart to pay attention to the ridicule of the big white girl now, so I took a few sips of water to recover myself. It took about ten minutes before I was able to stand up.
I looked at the big white girl and said, "Where did that dead kid go?" ”
The big white girl shook her head and said, "I don't even dare to open this stone door now, so I can only wait here for you to wake up." But luckily it didn't come in during this time, otherwise, the two of us would be in danger. ”
I spent more than half an hour in the stone chamber to regain my strength, and then the two of us slowly opened the stone door and walked towards the main burial chamber. There was no change in the main burial chamber, and the humble coffin was still in the center of the burial chamber. Because I knew that it might be Zhu Chun lying here, I couldn't control the urge to open the coffin immediately.
It took me a lot of effort to convince myself that if I opened the coffin now, I would be looking for my own death, and I didn't have the skills of monks and pangolins. If this vassal king of the old Zhu family did not become a Buddha but became something else, then I would simply die by myself.
We mustered up the courage to go into the side room on the left, but we didn't find any sign of the two-faced monster, and the guy didn't know where he had gone. It's almost an enclosed space, and we can't get out of it if we can't find the two-faced baby.
I don't know if the monks have found out that we were brought here by this two-faced monster baby, if they can't find us, with the level of me and the big white girl, the chance of finding a mechanism from here is almost zero.
While I was still struggling with how to get out, there was a sudden noise in the main burial chamber.
