Chapter 24: The Female Corpse of the Dragon Boat
After eating and drinking, I looked around, and saw that the road we were on was about the same width and narrowness as the previous road, paved with bluestone, and where we had just come ashore, the road was disconnected, and the road we had walked before had sunk into the lake.
Judging from the coordinates, I found that the two teams of Qi Ye and Liang Ruoyi also seemed to have deviated from the previous direction, could they also encounter some things?
The time had already pointed to one o'clock at noon.
"Alas......" I sighed: "This place is the most goalless one among so many tombs, and I don't know where Wu Jiangxian's tomb is!" How can I find this? No clue at all. ”
The toad's chest was painted again in the fight with the snake just now, and I even had a thought in my heart, will the toad be killed by those monsters or evil creatures in a certain operation?
Anyway, I don't have a good impression of Toad at all, and although his kung fu is not low, it is still a little worse than that of the Seventh Master and the Budai Monk, even compared with Liang Ruoyi, who is full of firepower, it is estimated that he will not have the upper hand.
"I don't know when this road will sink." The toad pondered for a while and suddenly guessed: "Boy, you say, will it be that when all the land sinks to the bottom of the lake, the tomb of Wu Jiangxian will be revealed?" ”
"Possibly." I said perfunctorily.
"Well, let's go. I've been in here for almost a day, and I want to get out soon! The toad stood up as he spoke, gathered his belongings, and continued to walk forward.
I also followed, and after walking for a while, according to the coordinates, our general direction was not wrong, and it was still in the direction of west-south, and it should not be a long time before we arrived near Beishan.
When I walked to three o'clock in the afternoon, I suddenly found that Liang Ruoyi and Monk Budai suddenly turned around and walked from the north to the south.
By four o'clock in the afternoon, I couldn't walk, and at the speed of the two of us, I should have really reached the bottom of the North Mountain by now.
"Let's take a break!" I stopped and leaned against a soil fort beside me: "I'm tired, the Seventh Master is estimated to be not far from us, Liang Ruoyi is now not far from the north behind us, and he should be able to catch up quickly." ”
The toad was injured, and at this time he also looked a little tired, nodded, and simply sat on the ground.
On the top of the cave one zhang high overhead, there are strange stones of different shapes hanging down, some long and short, some round and some square, it really looks like a huge karst cave.
"Let's wait here for the Seventh Master or Liang Ruoyi and them to come over!" I thought about it and proposed: "Our three groups of people have already walked more than half of the place, and the rest of the place is for us to walk together in three groups, and it is estimated that we can finish it in one day!" ”
The toad turned its head to glance at me, but didn't speak, not knowing what it was thinking.
"Gurgling ......"
At this time, a "gurgling" sound suddenly came to mind on the lake in the distance, which instantly reminded me of the huge dragon in Jinsu Mountain!
"What is it? If it's still the same ......" I didn't finish speaking, I suddenly felt a chill in the back of my head, and I felt bad, so I hurriedly walked to the toad: "There are evil things, be careful!" ”
The toad was stunned, but still chose to believe me, took out a piece of bloodstone from his pocket and stuffed it into his mouth, and looked at the "gurgling" place with a frown and intent.
After a few seconds, there was a "gurgling" sound in many places around us, like a symphony being played, which made my little heart suddenly tense up in the dark.
"What?!" After all, the toad had not been in the tomb a few times, and had hardly seen any evil things, and he was a little panicked when he saw this.
"No, I don't know!" I can only conclude that this thing is evil, and how do I know what it is!
As the "gurgling" sound got louder and louder, my head buzzed like crazy.
Ten seconds later, there was a muffled sound of "poof", followed by the sound of water splashing, and a flowery thing jumped out of the bottom of the lake, and then floated quietly on the surface of the lake.
"What ......?"
The white thing was about a foot away from us, and our flashlight was on with a weak low beam, so we couldn't see it clearly. I was just about to adjust the lights to look over, and there were several muffled sounds of "poof" and "bang" around me, and when it was quiet again, I and the toad hurried over......
When I saw these things clearly, I couldn't help but swallow my saliva: these white flowers were none other than a female corpse in a white Luo skirt, floating quietly on the surface of the lake, roughly looking at about ten bodies.
In the darkness, the female corpses lay face up on their backs on the surface of the lake, their arms hanging from the water, their black hair floating behind, their faces pale and motionless.
I was so scared that I didn't dare to take a breath, and the same was true of the toads around me! With so many corpses, if they rush up together, even if I am born to ward off evil spirits, I am estimated to be half scared to death. And the toad, there is almost no hope of survival...... Unless these things are paper tigers!
"Hey, there are so many, even if I spray bloodstone in one mouth, I can't take care of it, while they don't wake up, let's go!" The toad just picked up his backpack and was about to leave, but he didn't expect the ground under his feet to shake violently again, and this time he didn't give the two of us a chance to react at all, and instantly plunged directly into the lake.
In a panic, I saw the female corpses sitting up from the lake one by one! Oh no, it's standing up! They stood directly in the lake, their lower bodies still submerged.
Immediately, we felt that at the bottom of the lake, there was a strong undercurrent rushing towards the surface of the lake!
Damn, with such a strong impact, it can't be Ultraman, right?! What a big thing to have such an impact! I looked at the toad, I couldn't help but scream, and swam in one direction like crazy!
I didn't swim far before I heard a loud "bang" on my side, and a huge wave rushed in, and a huge black shadow rushed out from the bottom of the lake!
I froze for a moment, if it was a monster the size of a room, I wouldn't be able to escape, so I might as well save some effort and wait for death......
The whole time, the back of my head was chilling, and it was the first time I had seen such a big evil thing...... Could it be an elephant that has been turned into a corpse?!
But when the wind and waves calmed down, I and the toad floating in the water saw the original appearance of this thing clearly, and our eyes immediately widened!
What kind of evil thing is this, this huge thing is actually a black dragon boat about two feet long and six feet wide!
"Dragon boat?!" The toad turned his head to look at me: "Can you recognize what dynasty this is?" ”
"Of course it was made by Emperor Yang of Sui!" I said without hesitation: "Every time Emperor Yang of Sui made a southern tour, he paid special attention to pomp and circumstance, and this dragon boat should be built according to the dragon boat he rode during his southern tour. Besides, the palace girl Wu Jiangxian that Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty liked, wasn't she just pulling fiber for dragon boats! That ......"
Speaking of this, I was suddenly stunned: Wu Jiangxian is a palace foot girl, who pulls fiber for the dragon boat, and Wu Jiangxian is buried here, doesn't it mean that this dragon boat is likely to be Wu Jiangxian's tomb? !
The toad on the side seemed to have thought of this, and swam towards the dragon boat without saying a word!
"Hey, hey!" I shouted anxiously from behind: "And those female corpses!" You're really desperate for money?! ”
There is no doubt that these ten female corpses standing in the lake are the temple foot girls of this dragon boat going to the underworld, that is, the ......
I saw that the toad was still swimming towards the dragon boat at a reduced speed, I hesitated, but decided to follow, although I hated this man, but I still didn't want him to die.
After a few seconds, the toad had swam to the edge of the dragon boat, took a deep breath, stretched out an arm and put it on the boat, ready to climb up.
And at this moment, the dragon boat, which had been quiet, slowly moved forward.
I was stunned, and hurriedly looked at the female corpses, and saw that the ten female corpses were slightly arched, and their underwater feet seemed to be swinging violently, and I also found that their eyes, which were originally closed in the dark, had been opened at this time, and the white eyes without black eyeballs were reflected against the miserable white faces, which looked extraordinarily and weird......
