Chapter 72: People live in a thousand forms, and people die in a cup of loess
At this time, I will worry more about the fat man than other things, to be honest, I know the fat man very well, no matter how the seaweed thing drags down in the waterway, that time alone is not enough to kill him. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info but then again, the psychedelic scene from before has always left a lot of shadows in my heart, and I will inevitably fear that such a tragedy will happen.
I didn't wait for Emma to say anything and pressed the fat man's chest, fortunately, I myself had just woken up, otherwise with such an abrupt attack, I was afraid that he would have broken a few ribs.
In fact, the matter was not as serious as I feared, the fat man woke up quickly, and I don't know whether he was choked by the water or because he was heavily pressed by me, he coughed a few times, and when he opened his eyes, he saw me, and scolded: "Zou Yi, your uncle, murder." ”
An Changwei still had a few cuts on his chest, which were stained with water, and Emma changed the medicine for him again, but it didn't seem to have much effect, the wound had begun to change color, and if he didn't treat it a few times, he was afraid that the wound infection would kill him sooner or later.
At this time, everyone had the heart to reminisce about the thrill in the waterway before, and it was obvious that there must have been no such thing in that place before, and of course it would not be seaweed, but this thing was somewhat similar to seaweed, afraid of light and pestering people, as if this was a means for it to survive and forage.
Why this kind of thing happened, everyone also does not know.
There are too many unknowns and secrets in this tomb altar, and I was a little stunned when I held the broken tiger talisman in my hand. This thing can't be said whether it is good or bad, the master left his grandfather to say that it is a piece of fragments, and his dying wish is also to let his grandfather find the remaining fragments, with the craftsmanship of the poison-eyed dragon, he can also see seven or eight points of the master's ability to look at things back then, at least it is not a star and a half stronger than being Professor Gu, if he looks away, it seems a little unlikely.
Second, the guy must also know the secret, since he can live until now, and his hand is never under me, it must be closely related to this tiger talisman, why did the master lie to his grandfather that this thing was fast and crippled, and not tell him directly, how did Guan Ji, the scum of the division who betrayed the master and killed his siblings, know the secret of this thing, all this seems to have become an unsolvable mystery.
The fat man saw that I was stunned, and slapped me on the shoulder: "Why are you stunned?" What's next? ”
I was stunned for a moment, and then I came back to my senses and looked around, this place was somewhat similar to the altar outside, except that there was nothing superfluous on it, and there was no corpse remains, the whole cave was closed, only the waterway we came down from before and the place directly facing the waterway had an arch that was level with the platform, and the waterway was exactly one on top and one below, but the arch above was not like the bottom was full of water, and it looked very dry.
After everyone rested for a while, I let the fat man walk in with An Changwei on his back like an arch, and scraped the wall with a sapper shovel inside the arch, and after scraping the originally dark wall, a layer of white powder was revealed, as if the wall was originally white and blackened by something.
I put the powder in front of my nose and smelled it, it turned out to be some lime, it seems that this place should be limestone, I don't know if it is originally here, or artificially made.
After walking a distance of more than ten meters all the way, the deeper it goes, the drier it becomes, and in some places the lime is simply exposed, which is very conspicuous. But that's fine, with these limes, at least there won't be any poisonous insects and beasts, and there will be no troubles.
The distance of more than ten meters was already at the end, and Emma suddenly grabbed me and whispered: "There is a sound of water ahead, it should be another waterfall." ”
There are waterfalls again, it is said that the place where Hunan and Hubei meet is indeed a large mountainous area, and most of the southern rivers belong to the tributaries of the Yangtze River, and it is normal to say that there are many waterfalls, but only about 100 meters away I saw a waterfall, which is really unbelievable, I tried to ask: "Are you sure it is a waterfall, not a small river and a stream?" ”
Emma nodded with great certainty, she is an expert in history and geography, much better than us semi-literate, so naturally she will have some doubts, but she will trust her ears more in comparison, after all, more than twenty years of practice is not in vain.
I looked at the black and white passage in front of me, and sighed in my heart: "I hope this is the end, after all, we have already got what we should hold, and we must not have any more moths at this time." ”
I was about to step forward, I suddenly saw a person standing in front of the fat man, smiled and waved at the fat man, the blink of an eye was gone, I hurriedly asked the fat man if he saw a figure in front of him, the fat man laughed and scolded me for being nervous, the previous fog was not good.
Even so, he must not have seen it, although I was puzzled in my heart, but I didn't take it too seriously, just thought it was a hallucination caused by the lack of oxygen in the water for too long, and the black and white of this place looked a little messy, maybe I was wrong.
However, this doubt did not last long, and Emma on the side suddenly threw the vajra umbrella behind me, and the vajra umbrella almost only grazed my cheek, and slammed into the wall of the passage, and the slightly trembling handle of the umbrella showed how powerful she was throwing. Looking at this scene, cold sweat kept coming out of my forehead, if it was a little off, I was afraid that my head would be pierced at this time.
The fat man stepped forward quickly, his jaw was so surprised that his jaw almost fell to the ground, and he couldn't help but throw An Changwei behind him to the ground, and as he spoke, he pressed Emma to the ground and couldn't move, and asked sharply: "Miss Duan, why did Zou Yi offend you, you want to do this poisonous thing?" ”
Emma looked up at the Vajra umbrella on the wall, which was still trembling slightly, and shouted, "What are you doing?" Let go of me. ”
Where was the fat man willing to listen to her, and said angrily and funny: "Joke, let you go, if you don't say that you are ugly, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out so easily." ”
Even though emma is a practitioner, but in the face of the fat man's body shape, where can a big man who has been on the battlefield move a little, and is pressed by the fat man's knees on his back with his hands behind his back, the fat man has always been against emma, and he doesn't know what it means to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, and he won't let go if he buckles it.
I looked at Emma's eyes for a long time, and suddenly she scolded: "Zou Yi, you bastard, let him let me go, I'm saving your life, do you treat your life-saving benefactor like this?" ”
I've always trusted my instincts, and my instincts tell me that Emma wasn't lying, at least she wasn't as deluded as I was, and there was still that kind of unyielding energy in her eyes. I waved my hand to the fat man and motioned for him to let go of emma, the fat man had never had any doubts about my words, but this time he couldn't rely on me, and shook his head again and again: "No, no, if this Nizi doesn't say something, I won't let go." ”
Under the pressure of the fat man, Emma finally gave in. According to what she said, what I just saw was the same as the things I saw before, a figure appeared next to me, but this time it was no longer a smile, it became a face full of horror and fear, this kind of cave where no living person suddenly appeared a figure, where can it be good, emma immediately threw out the vajra umbrella in his hand, I don't want that thing to be as if it didn't exist at all, the vajra umbrella hit the wall directly, because the force was too strong, the umbrella handle was still trembling on the wall.
The fat man didn't know why, and he didn't have a good impression of emma, so he naturally took her down without saying a word.
It seems that I am not the only one who has seen this same figure, and the path forward has become particularly strange in our eyes, and a feeling of indescribability arises spontaneously. I have always been a very adventurous person, but it was in the face of living people and living things, or some situations with predictable consequences, that after I was involved with the word tomb robbery, I suddenly found that what we were facing was simply unpredictable, and even something that our so-called common sense could not understand.
The fat man picked up An Changwei, who he threw on the ground, and everyone walked forward a short distance, and a huge underground space appeared in front of them, which was larger than any of the things we had seen before, about five zhang high, and at least seven or eight battles in length and width, but it was no longer as empty as before, and there were people standing everywhere, or it was more accurate to say that there were dead people.
All the people are wearing armor, these armor is not the metal and vine armor we understand in the conventional sense, but ceramic armor, but the people are real living people, holding spears and short swords standing there neatly, one by one looks like a real ancient soldier reborn, but the closed eyes all indicate that they are all dead people, lifeless at all.
Everyone looked at these ancient soldiers in front of them, and their eyes all revealed surprise. We have seen a lot of dead people, countless people were killed, hacked to death, and killed by bullets on the battlefield, and even we ourselves don't know how many such comrades-in-arms we have saved without arms and legs.
As the saying goes: "People live in a thousand ways, and people die in a cup of loess." "No matter how people live, after death is nothing more than the same appearance, even if it is as grand as the imperial mausoleum, and the burial goods are buried in half of the treasury like the Tang Emperor's mausoleum, but it is still impossible to avoid the result of the corpse corruption.
But what we saw in front of us completely subverted the cognition of normal people, and we went down here to get the confirmation of Emma and An Changwei, this ancient tomb altar was at least in the Warring States period, and it was only two thousand years ago, but the bodies of these soldiers were like living people.
