Chapter 14: The Breeze Dragon
Zhang Chopsticks shook it carefully, it seemed to be a pull ring, although it was soaked in black water all year round, it revealed a little jade color.
This is supposed to be a secret passage, but it is strange that the pull ring is in the mouth of the tomb owner. Could it be that after the owner of the tomb melted away, the skin was printed on the pull ring? Zhang chopsticks laughed excitedly, didn't think much about it, put on gloves and carefully pulled up the pull ring.
It's a pull ring, it's very hard, it should be jade. Zhang Qiaozi was even more excited.
With a force on his hand, the pull ring was slowly pulled up, but Zhang Chopsticks' face changed.
The ring did not bring up a stone slab, revealing a secret passage. Instead, it was easily pulled up by Zhang Chopsticks, and under the pull ring, a crystal jade grape was revealed, emitting an emerald green light under the illumination of the headlamp.
The best beautiful jade, Zhang Chopsticks was a little excited in his heart. But I can't help but worry, is this a treasure hidden in this coffin? If so, even if he gets it, how can he get out?
Zhang looked back and forth, and was horrified to find that most of the roots of the tree that originally ran through the small space like chains had been wiped out.
It's not scary to die, it's scary to see it get closer and closer to you and you can't do anything about it.
Zhang Chopsticks pulled the ring even harder, and under the jade grape, there was another jade grape.
Zhang chopsticks continued to pull.
One by one, they are crystal clear and endless.
The headlamp shone up, illuminating almost the entire burial chamber.
At this time, Zhang Chopsticks was no longer in a hurry, he was completely attracted by this flawless jade. He had seen the jade grapes treasured by Cixi in the Forbidden City and the Forbidden City. All of them are crystal clear, with leaves and veins, and they are natural. Compared with what he is looking at, it is much inferior. A tomb robber can dig up such a heavy treasure, and it can already go down in history.
At this time, Zhang Chopsticks was no longer anxious about whether there was an exit under the sarcophagus, but wanted to see how many jade grapes there wereβhe had already pulled out eighty-three.
Zhang Chopsticks even thought that he would die with this heavy treasure, maybe someone would find this tomb tomorrow, and the archaeologists would come in, all of them marvel at the beauty of this jade grape, and naturally they would notice him, a tomb robber who was drilled by insects and was full of holes.
This treasure was discovered by him, and he should be counted in the history books. But the archaeologists didn't know his name, and Zhang chopsticks paused in his hand, he should have left a name
Zhang's hand slowed down, and he went to rummage through his bag, hoping to find a pen. Sure enough, he flipped to the pen all the time, and he had this habit. But what if you don't have paper?
Zhang Chopsticks was very irritable, he groped in private, and finally found the cigarette case. He picked up the cigarette case and tore it open roughly, not noticing that his hands were shaking.
Tremblingly, he picked up the pen and wrote his name on the cardboard box. "Chopsticks" is not right. He stopped, it was his nickname in the industry, his destiny was not this, and the news and history books could not only remember his nickname.
Zhang Chopsticks decided to write his real name as well. But just as he was about to start writing, he was stunned. What is his real name?
Zhang Chopsticks, what is Zhang Chopsticks' real name?
He slammed his head so hard that he could remember anything, but he was a little dizzy. He caught a glimpse of the tomb owner's dissolved face in the coffin, the corners of his mouth pulled up, as if smiling at him.
"What are you laughing at!" Zhang Shouting roared, picked up a crowbar and smashed it in the face. The shriveled skin that had adhered to the slate was slashed away by a stick, and from the eyes to the mouth, the face became even more terrifying and hideous.
The stick almost hit his jade grapes.
He screamed in distress, and jumped into the coffin regardless of the black water, stepped on the face of the tomb owner, and hugged the bunch of jade grapes and lay down in the coffin. Looking at the crystal light of the jade grapes, he said obsessively: "Didn't hit you?" β
Zhang chopsticks stroked the jade grapes like a first love. He suddenly didn't want to go out, to be precise, he didn't want to take this rare treasure out. Now the antiquities dealer is so rampant, he takes the jade grapes out, in case someone hurts this crystal smoothness
He didn't want anyone to hurt it, it was best to keep it hidden here, no tomb robber could break through these terrifying black worms.
But he didn't want to give up this bunch of jade grapes, it was too charming. More than anything Zhang Chopsticks has ever seen.
Zhang chopsticks held the jade grape for a while, and whispered to the jade grape, "Let's sleep here together, okay?" β
Of course, the jade grape would not make a sound, but Zhang Chopsticks felt it, and it trembled and seemed to agree.
Chongbao really has spirituality.
Zhang chopsticks grinned excitedly and pulled out all the remaining jade grapes. There was nothing in the sarcophagus except a small hole. Holding the bunch of jade grapes and lying in the coffin, he didn't expect that his posture coincided with the posture of the owner of the tomb. Beneath his head was the twisted and rotten face of the tomb owner.
Zhang Chopsticks closed his eyes and hugged the jade grape tightly, and the jade grape also entangled him, like a lover who wanted to get into his arms.
That's it, a lifetime is also vigorous, Zhang Chopsticks thought in his mind.
Zhang Chopsticks' consciousness became more and more blurred, his soul seemed to rise, and he felt an unprecedented lightness, which was called relief.
"Wang! Woof! β
Something suddenly came to his ears, and he couldn't help frowning.
"Wang! Barking!! β
Zhang Qiaozi suddenly realized that it was the wild dog, it barked so fiercely, what happened? Without the wild dog, he would not have found the jade grape, and Zhang opened his chopsticks to see the wild dog.
When he opened his eyes, a cold sweat suddenly broke out, there was no jade grape in his arms, and a green and cold thing wrapped around his body.
The green thing was still wriggling, with hard, cold scales on it, and Zhang Chopsticks suddenly remembered an animal.
didn't disappoint Zhang Chopsticks, a green snake head stretched out, his eyes were blood-red, his pupils were erect, and the black letter kept licking Zhang Chopsticks' face.
Zhang Chopsticks was stunned.
This is the jade grape he loved before.
Zhang Chopsticks subconsciously wanted to get up, but the green snake immediately tightened its body as if it had realized it, and wrapped Zhang Chopsticks like a rope, and the snake's head came to Zhang Chopsticks' face and made a dangerous sound. It seems that if the chopsticks move again, they will bite down.
The more colorful the snake, the more venomous, not to mention the strange snake that lives in the tomb of the dead all the year round, you can see it from the blood-red eyes alone. Zhang Qiaozi collapsed a little. If you usually encounter this snake, you may be able to save your life. But he secretly held it and lay it in the coffin! If it weren't for that dog, I don't even know how to die.
Thinking of this, Zhang Chopsticks suddenly remembered the distorted face of the tomb owner. Was he also bewitched by the snake and let the snake get into his mouth and die?
Or is he not the owner of the tomb at all, but a tomb robber like himself?
Zhang Qiaozi shuddered. No wonder this tomb can stand here for thousands of years unharmed. I am afraid that the sarcophagus here is an illusion at all, and the real coffin is hidden in another secret place of this burial chamber. And all the people who came in and tried to steal it were all fascinated by the jade grapes
I couldn't allow Zhang Chopsticks to think, the snake had already come to Zhang Chopsticks' face, and Nobuko kept touching Zhang Chopsticks' lips.
Zhang Qiaozi knew that it wanted to get in. Suck up his nutrients, and then he will also turn into a coffin of black water. Thinking of this, Zhang chopsticks gritted his teeth.
The snake kept arching its mouth with its chopsticks, but found that the hole could not be entered. Zhang Qiaozi's sweat became more and more, and he didn't dare to move.
Finally, the green snake took his head away. Zhang Qiaozi squinted his eyes slightly, and watched the green snake stand up, its head arched. Look condescendingly at his neck.
It couldn't get into the mouth of the chopsticks, and wanted to bite his neck, and it knew very well that the mouth of a dead man would not be so tight.
Zhang Chopsticks will not sit still like this. When the green snake's neck was raised, Zhang Chopsticks also secretly pulled out his arm. He understood that the snake's attack was fast, almost like lightning, and could bite through his neck in an instant, and the venom was injected into his body.
So his hands should be quicker.
Zhang Chopsticks exhaled lightly. The hand moved like lightning! The green snake also bit down like lightning as if it had received an order.
Zhang saw the snake rushing down, opening its mouth to reveal the fangs inside
Zhang Chopsticks closed his eyes, but immediately opened them again.
He was an inch from his neck, and two fingers pinched the snake's head. Zhang Chopsticks lifted the head of the green snake, and the green snake was threatened, unconsciously let go of Zhang Chopsticks, and wrapped his body around his arm.
Zhang Qiaozi stood up with his strength, laughed, grabbed the tail of the green snake with his other hand, and at the same time released the snake's head like lightning and threw it fiercely on the sarcophagus.
"Hahaha." "Bang bang bang!" Like a whip, the green snake was thrown to the ground and its flesh was blurred.
Zhang chopsticks threw away the green snake, wanting to see the condition of those black insects, but his palm was stinging. When I opened the chopsticks, it turned out to be black.
And then the world swirled.
At that moment, he realized that the scales of this green snake were also poisonous Just a thought, he fainted.
When he woke up again, he was lying alone on a river beach, and a river flowed past him, full of stones. Not far away is the dam, next to which a row of poplar trees grow.
He got up, his back aching terribly. Looking at his palms, they are still black. Zhang Qiaozi was puzzled, who got him out of the general's tomb?
He immediately thought of the magical wild dog, but there was no shadow of it around.
It's good to come out alive, Zhang Chopsticks has robbed the tomb for more than ten years, and has encountered a lot of strange things. He no longer struggled, but simply cleaned the wounds on his body.
Climbing up to the dam, he found that it was on the north side of the General's Tomb Village, and the General's Tomb stood quietly not far away, and he watched for a while and smiled.
The formation here is all dispersed, and the so-called Breeze Dragon Momentum, the nail nailing its dragon's tail has been pulled out. The roots of those cypress trees are devoured and soon die. At that time, the clear wind and dragon qi will soar into the sky, and the rui qi that bless the village will no longer exist.
Thinking of this, Zhang Chopsticks sighed, he didn't catch anything, he almost lost his life, and a village was broken by Feng Shui. It was really a chopstick patted his forehead.
Because he needed to heal his wounds, Zhang Qiaozi could only find the nearest clinic in the village and bandage the wound with the doctor's surprised face. But if you want to unravel the snake venom, it is obviously impossible in this small place, and it is not when it will be poisonous, so Zhang Chopsticks can only hurry to find a big hospital for treatment.
No one noticed the abnormality of the general's tomb and ate something, so he carried his things on his back and hurried out of the village.
At the entrance of the village, a man sat quietly under a big tree, with a dog squatting next to him.
Zhang Qiaozi walked past the man, glanced at it and immediately stopped, he recognized that the dog was the wild dog that spat last night, the gray fur seemed to have been burned, and a large piece had been dropped, and it was extremely ugly.
And the person sitting next to it was actually the old man who cultivated the land that Zhang Qiaozi met when he first entered the village!
When the old man saw Zhang Chopsticks, he immediately smiled: "Going to leave?" β
Zhang Chopsticks looked at the old man's old face, and suddenly felt a little terrifying, and said in a low voice: "En." β
The old man took a puff of cigarette, which was the Yuxi given to him by Zhang Chopsticks, and said with a smile: "I've seen the general's tomb, it's actually nothing, it's just a mound." β
Zhang Qiaozi lowered his head, "Uncle En, this dog"
When the old man heard this, he smiled even brighter. touched the wild dog, and the wild dog also squinted his eyes, but Zhang Zhang found that the dog's eyes kept looking at him, full of banter.
The old man said, "It's my friend." β
Zhang Chopsticks nodded and said, "Oh, it's very smart and cute, I'll go first." Zhang Chopsticks suddenly didn't want to say any more, and he suddenly had a strange illusion. The old man's voice was the same as the old man's voice last night.
The old voice, not the dog? Are they just playing a double reed? Could it be that he was silently watching in the dark when he was digging his grave? Could it be that he saved himself? With your own perception, it is impossible for someone to follow behind you silently.
Zhang Qiaozi suddenly didn't want to talk to this old man anymore.
The old man nodded and said, "You go, and you will come back in five days." He was in a commanding tone.
Zhang Chopsticks' mouth twitched, "Why?" β
The old man said, "You haven't gotten what you want yet." β
Zhang Chopsticks understood something in an instant. nodded to the old man again and again, and said, "Thank you, thank you, senior." β
The old man shook his head and said, "Actually, I should thank you." β
Zhang Chopsticks was stunned: "Thank me for what?" β
The old man smiled, leaning back and forth, and the mouth of the wild dog next to him cracked.
Zhang chopsticks stared at the old man, waiting for something to pop out of his mouth.
"Thank you for giving me this pack of cigarettes." The old man took out the box of Yuxi and raised it, his face proud.
"It should be, it should be." Zhang chopsticks bowed, turned his head and left. He didn't want to talk to this weirdo for a moment.
"Hey!" The old man shouted behind him, and he didn't look back.
The old man didn't care that Zhang Qiaozi walked farther and farther, and said lightly: "My name is Long Fengqing." β
Zhang chopsticks staggered and walked faster. After walking out of the distance, Zhang Chopsticks couldn't help but look back, where were such old men and wild dogs under the big tree.
