Chapter Twenty-Four: When the Enemy Meets, His Eyes Are Red
I hurriedly ran over and untied the poison-eyed dragon, looked at the wound on his leg, and searched for a long time but couldn't find the gun's eye. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Poison-eyed dragon took out a broken jade product from his pocket: "Damn, little Japan, what Lao Tzu finally found was scrapped by you with one shot, and I can't use this leg." ”
Seeing that the poison-eyed dragon was fine, I also breathed a sigh of relief, something might appear in this ghost place, and a small injury could easily kill you.
The villager was trampled under the feet of the fat man, with an automatic rifle on his head, and I took out the half of the tiger talisman from my arms and handed it to him: "Mr. Murashi, if you are not so anxious, maybe this thing is standing in your hand." I've always been very fair, you shot my brother, and my brother shot you back, so we're even. Now your life is in my brother's hands, I want to know, what do you buy your life for? ”
In this situation, I thought he would compromise, but who knew that this Japanese villager's mouth was very hard, and he glanced at me obliquely: "Hmph... The great Japanese samurai did not compromise, and you have the ability to kill me. ”
After several years of battlefield, I can tell with the eyes of a person whether this person really sees death as home, I stared into the eyes of the villager under the mountain, hoping to see a trace of timidity in it, but in the end it still disappointed me, this guy has long been prepared in his heart to become a benevolent if he does not succeed.
I sighed with a little headache, waved my hand at the fat man, and the fat man gestured, searched his body, and stepped aside, but in order to prevent him from making any more small movements, the fat man's muzzle never left his head.
Seeing that I didn't kill him, Yamashita looked at me with a surprised face, thinking that I would have some other plans next: "What are you going to do with me?" ”
I glanced at him and said with a smile: "Mr. Villager, no matter what your background or background, I want to say that this is China, and since the boss behind you asked you to come here to find the tomb and steal the treasure, he has no intention of letting you go back alive." ”
Not only the villager under the mountain, but even the white-haired old man who was on the verge of coma widened his eyes at the moment, looking at me in disbelief, and the fat man held up the gun and said strangely: "What? There's a boss behind this kid. Damn, hand you over to the police, and I'll still get a medal after I get out of the army. ”
The villager didn't expect me to know so much, and was a little incoherent: "Zou, Mr. Zou, I think you have misunderstood, these are all your imaginations, I am me, I am a businessman, and our family has been a businessman for three generations..."
I directly waved my hand to interrupt the sophistry of the villager under the mountain: "Mr. Villager, since I dare to say this, there must be my reason, you can quibble, but what the facts, you know best in your heart, the methods of the Chinese police must be very clear, when the time comes, what to say, it is not as good as now." ”
The villager under the mountain looked a little flustered: "How do you see it?" Am I doing something wrong? ”
I said: "You are doing everything right, you just shouldn't follow into the cemetery as a boss, you know that entering this kind of place is almost the same as going to the battlefield, and you shouldn't care so much about your two bodyguards, as far as I know, there are special companies in the bodyguard industry abroad, employers spend money to hire bodyguards, bodyguards are only responsible for protecting the safety of the employer, the most important article in the bodyguard charter is not to leave an inch, but your two bodyguards can leave your side at the same time, and they are dead, no matter how you disguise, It's hard to change the joy of losing a comrade..."
This is how things in the world, the ancestor is right, there is nothing difficult in the world, only afraid of people with hearts, this sentence depends on how you understand it. The kind of fun that Yamashita Murato, after the loss of his bodyguard, tried to hide, did not attract my attention at first, and I only thought that he was habitually frowning, but when he ran up the stone stake after me and jumped over the last two-meter distance, I began to suspect him.
It seems too abnormal for the boss of a consortium to come and break through when he knows that the road ahead is difficult, and he only has two bodyguards, and even more, his hand seems to be no less than any of us, but he is deliberately hiding something.
All the things before and after had to make me start to doubt his identity, until the fat man and I came out of the winding passage, and the first sight I saw the village man standing there, and the other three people squatting on the ground, so I let the fat man hide for the sake of safety.
When it was clear that the three of them except for the white-haired old man who was seriously injured on the ground, the other two were tied up and fell to the ground, although the poison-eyed dragon was a literati and had average skills, but the woman surnamed Lan and the white-haired old man had been on the battlefield, and the Burmese jungle was even worse than the battlefield in Vietnam, not to mention the surviving Burmese guerrillas, and their skills were even better.
And looking at the appearance of the Yamashita villager, it didn't seem to take much effort to subdue her.
This confirmed my suspicion that Yamashita Murafu was not the boss of a consortium, and that there was a bigger force behind him, and that he was just a pawn.
After all, anyone has a chance to become a group boss, but it is by no means that anyone can easily subdue a battle-hardened warrior.
The village man seemed to be recalling all the details of what I said, and then sneered, and the gentleman was full of helplessness and unwillingness: "Mr. Zou, I am convinced of the defeat in the hands of people like you, what do you want to know, say it." ”
To some extent, I did see through his plan, but this does not mean anything, after all, there are still many objective factors. For example, although I and the fat man and the poison-eyed dragon have not had much contact with the Japanese, after all, the era we live in determines that we have been instilled with the idea that the Japanese are extremely sinful since we were children, so we have no good image of the Japanese from the bones; Second, the white-haired old man didn't doubt him, but when he and his brother were down, the other party helped him, so it is not difficult to understand that no one wants to doubt his benefactor from the bottom of his heart, not to mention that before entering the ancient tomb, the four of their companions were still safe and sound.
I breathed a sigh of relief, but I was afraid that he would still be stubborn: "Mr. Villager, before this, I think you understand one thing, maybe you don't care about your life, but I still want to tell you that every word you say now determines whether you leave safely." The first question I want to ask is, what is this thing for you? ”
The villager covered his bleeding arm, and his eyes were fixed on the half of the tiger talisman in my hand: "I don't need to say it, Mr. Zhao should know what this thing is." In your ancient China, this was called the Tiger Fu, which could command thousands of troops and horses..."
The poison-eyed dragon snorted his teeth: "Mr. Villager, I think you misunderstood, we don't need you to talk about our ancestors' things, Zou Ye and I want to know, what do you want this thing for, is it possible to summon heavenly soldiers and generals ******?" ”
Yamashita Murafu was speechless for a moment and shook his head: "No, my boss didn't tell me what the use is, and it's impossible for me to know such a secret." All I know is that they are determined to get it. ”
I was shocked, and then sneered in my heart, this old thing, it has fallen at such a time, and it is still playing psychological warfare with us, and I am too lazy to listen to him continue to talk nonsense, and the words changed: "What does that disease have to do with you?" ”
The villager was a little strange, and his expression seemed to be trying to recall something: "That... Pass through... Disease... The name is somewhat unfamiliar. Can you give us a hint? ”
The fat man had long been fed up with his bird-like appearance of garlic, so he couldn't help but turn the butt of the gun upside down and slam it on his stomach: "Old thing, ****** still pretending to be garlic, didn't you fucking hear this old man when he spoke?" At this time, I don't remember, why don't I think about it for you? ”
The fat man held the butt of the gun, and was about to smash it down, but I didn't reach out to stop it, but I saw the fat man raise his rifle, and it fell suddenly, and smashed it on the back of the village man under the mountain, and immediately he lay on the ground, panting in his mouth.
I know the strength of the fat man's hand very well, even if he doesn't die this time, it is enough for him to breathe for a while, and the fat man has no trace of stopping at this moment, just when I am thinking about whether to shout to stop, the villager lying on the ground raised a hand, and was speechless for a long time.
I waved my hand at the fat man, motioned him to wait a while, leaned down and leaned in front of the villager under the mountain: "Mr. Villager, I don't know if you remember what the relationship between that disease and you is." ”
The villager coughed twice: "I don't know who that Guan Ji is, last month the boss called me and asked me to find a way to spread the news in the black market, and that Guan Ji is going to do a big job in Sichuan." I haven't been in contact with this person from beginning to end, let alone know him. ”
I stared at his eyes suspiciously, and didn't speak for a long time, and the fat man thought that I was bewitched by his words: "Hey, Lao Zou, I can't believe this grandson's words, I must want to make some trouble, let me marry him as soon as possible." ”
As he was thinking about countermeasures, a gunshot suddenly broke the dead silence, and the villager in front of him fell to the ground. I yelled at the fat man, "Dead fatty, who wants you to shoot." ”
The fat man held the gun in his hand and spread his hands innocently: "It's not me, I was also startled, and the gun didn't have time to be raised." ”
I was shocked, hurriedly picked up the rifle on the ground, and turned to the darkness: "There are others, be careful." ”
When the fat man heard this, he immediately became nervous, and together with the woman surnamed Lan, he raised the rifle in his hand, surrounded the poison-eyed dragon and the white-haired old man in the middle, and the flashlight in his hand was divided into three directions and continued to strafe.
Suddenly, in the darkness of this passage, none of us had ever been, a figure appeared, and I hurriedly shouted to the two of them, and they raised their guns and looked in the direction I was pointing.
The figure in the darkness got closer and closer, but I couldn't see the face clearly, and I hurriedly shouted at the shadow: "Stop, I'll shoot any further." The shadow stood still, but said nothing, and I asked, "Who are you?" ”
The black shadow laughed twice, with an indescribable horror in the laughter, and the listener's scalp was numb, and then he spoke: "Haven't you been looking for me?" ”
I was shocked, as the saying goes, there is no place to find when you step on the iron shoes, it takes no effort to get there, I really want to find the disease, but the voice of the person in front of me makes me feel a little chilly.
Where is the voice of an old man who is in the age of a rod, it is clearly a young man who is no more than twenty years old.
Although my grandfather had already told me about this, and I was mentally prepared, I was still a little shocked at this time.
The fat man didn't fully understand this matter, and raised his gun and said angrily: "Where is the little hairy child, is there any adult to take care of, look for a fight." ”
The other party still had that gloomy sneer: "Little fat man, be careful when you speak, even your father doesn't dare to be an elder in front of me, don't you say, Jianbang, oh, no, your name is Zou Yi now, oops... Your grandfather's old thing, I didn't expect to be so stubborn, but he would think of such a bad move, found you a substitute for the dead ghost, and handed you over to his own guard platoon commander. ”
Although I didn't speak, I didn't dare to take my eyes off the guy in front of me who claimed to be sick, after all, he was the culprit who caused the destruction of my family, and the culprit who killed my father and grandfather.
At this time, even though a thousand thoughts came to my heart, when he said that sentence for the dead ghost, I was still taken aback, not only my grandfather, but even Zou Yanchang, who raised me, never mentioned this matter. And since he can mention his grandfather's guard platoon commander, he must have found Zou Yanchang's whereabouts.
I had a bad premonition in my heart, and I still forced myself to ask, "What is the substitute for the dead ghost?" What happened to Uncle Zou? ”
As if he had heard some joke, he burst out laughing: "Oops... I don't know if you still say that you are lucky or that you are unlucky, such a good grandfather, and I don't know which life you have cultivated the blessing, this Zou Yanchang is really dead-eyed, and when you die, you white-eyed wolf can't call people a father. ”
Hearing this, I couldn't help but feel sad, Zou Yanchang watched me grow up since I was a child, and my grandfather entrusted me to him before he died, which was already a great risk, and I only cared about finding the enemy, but forgot his safety.
Sadness from the heart, sad and angry, I couldn't bear it anymore, raised my gun and pulled the trigger on the figure in the dark, after a crazy shot, the figure in the darkness had already disappeared.
I don't know when tears fell from the corners of my eyes, and I roared angrily into the darkness: "That Guanji, I you, Mom, you have the ability to come out, don't you want what I have in my hand, the thing is here, you can take it if you have the ability, Lao Tzu is waiting here." That sickness..."
A roar, no echo could be heard, I held the gun and fired into the darkness, the automatic rifle kept hearing the sound of the firing pin empty, the fat man grabbed my gun and slapped me in the face: "Are you stupid, you also believe in this kind of agitation." ”
At this time, out of nowhere in the darkness, there was a voice that ran through the disease again: "Little fat man, you're very smart, but you also underestimate me too much, my master never tells lies, and there is no need to provoke you, I'll go first, you can play slowly, hahaha..."
A burst of yin and yang laughter gradually walked away, but unfortunately the hole was too dark to see the distance at all, I suddenly thought that the villager Yamashita still had the last few flares in his equipment, and hurriedly rummaged out of his bag, hurriedly reloaded, and pulled the trigger into the diagonal air.
The surroundings were bright, as if we had just entered, surrounded by two rows of stone statues, behind which was a row of spouts, but the water had long since dried up.
At this time, looking at it again, where is there still a trace of the disease, the poison-eyed dragon patted me on the shoulder on the side, and comforted: "Master Zou, when I was a child, I heard my father talk about this person, and my father also suffered the sin of this beast, we can be regarded as the same family, we are brothers, we must clean up the portal, you can't fall at this time." ”
I have thought of countless people leaving, but I never thought that one day Zou Yanchang would be affected by me and die, after countless lives and deaths on the battlefield, I deeply understand a truth, sadness can make a person strong, can also make a person cowardly, the key is how you choose. I've made this choice countless times, and I still do.
stood up and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and took a deep breath: "Brother Si, don't worry, I, Zou Yi, will not be beaten so easily, we are brothers who want to clean up the portal, and one day we will definitely kill this beast." ”
I turned my head to look at the white-haired old man lying on the ground unconscious, his feet were purple, and they were already better than before, and the glutinous rice on his feet was also blackened by the corpse poison that had been pulled out.
If there is enough glutinous rice, it is only a matter of time before the corpse poison is removed, but at the moment, there is not much glutinous rice left that I handed over to the poison-eyed dragon. If he hadn't gone out early, his best outcome would have been amputation.
The white-haired old man is still useful to me, this is not the time to give up on him, even if I want to avenge the old man Sun, it is not at this moment, and it is not too late to settle the account after he sobers up.
I asked the fat man to carry the white-haired old man on his back, and the four of them took the only equipment they had left, and ran towards the gate at the end.
The quaint gate is more than ten meters high, and it is engraved with all kinds of pictures and texts, and the poison-eyed dragon, a connoisseur, has an extraordinary insight into ancient pictures and texts.
He looked around the door from top to bottom, and said to me with a solemn face: "Master Zou, we really went the other way, this is the gate to enter the tomb." ”
The fat man said happily: "That's a good feeling, I haven't breathed fresh air for a long time, hurry up and find a way to get out, what are you still doing." ”
The poison-eyed dragon said: "The fat man doesn't know, this records the origin of this ancient tomb, and someone has cursed in this ancient tomb, if you want to go out safely, you will exit the same way, if the gate is opened, the consequences will be the same as the old and young in Sunjia Village." ”
I wondered: "What does it mean to be the same as the old and young in Sunjia Village?" Could it be that hundreds of people in Sunjia Village were cursed to death? What is it that curses so powerful? ”
The poison-eyed dragon said, "It's not the curse that's powerful, it's the consequences of the curse..."
The so-called curse is nothing more than some tomb owners in order to prevent tomb robbers from entering the cemetery to steal burial goods, the purpose of which is to scare off tomb robbers and preserve the peace of their tombs. Most of them are scary things, whether they are useful or not, that is also the opinion of the benevolent and the wise.
Until now, we have not heard anyone say anything here, which means that we have not gone to the place where Sun Denian's companions walked back then, and we have not even seen the half of the tiger talisman.
Looking at the half of the tiger talisman in my hand, I suddenly thought of the disease, so I turned to the poison-eyed dragon and said, "No, Brother Si, if the curse really exists, then the disease must have known a long time ago, since he dared to risk his life and walk into the cemetery, it means that there must be a way to avoid the curse, or to break the curse." ”
The poison-eyed dragon nodded: "What Zou Ye said is right, it's just that this gate doesn't say too much about the curse." ”
I handed half of the Tiger Talisman in my hand to the Poison-Eyed Dragon, and asked him to see if I could find any articles on the Tiger Talisman.
The poison-eyed dragon took the tiger talisman and looked at it carefully, I asked the fat man to put down the white-haired old man, at this time the purple on his ankles had faded a lot, but his mind was still half-asleep and half-awake, and the glutinous rice wrapped around his feet had turned black, and he scraped off the glutinous rice on his feet with a dagger, and replaced it with new glutinous rice.
The fat man was holding a gun in his hand and wandering around with a flashlight, and the woman surnamed Lan saw that I was so careful to help the white-haired old man pull out the corpse poison, and the black and purple on his feet also faded a lot. He lowered his head and said sorry to me twice in a row, thank you. I nodded, and didn't answer.
I always have a mixed feeling about them, they killed Sun Mingyi, and Sun Mingyi entrusted his granddaughter to me, and at this time they have an extraordinary effect on me. If you kill them, it will be difficult to have clues about the disease, and if you don't kill them, you will be sorry for the dead Sun Mingyi, and you will not be able to explain to Sun Mingyi's granddaughter in the future.
Weighing the pros and cons at the moment, we can only talk about it for the time being, after all, the future is long.
At this time, the fat man suddenly shouted: "Oops... Here's something, come and see. ”
I put down the dagger in my hand, knotted the gauze wrapped around the white-haired old man's legs, and walked in the direction of the fat man.
The poison-eyed dragon also followed when he heard this, and the fat man pointed to a one-meter-high stone platform in the corner of the wall, saying that it was a stone platform, but it was actually a larger stone pillar, octagonal, with a stone box on it.
The fat man tried to move the stone box, but he couldn't, and the poison-eyed dragon looked left and right at us and said, "This box can't be removed, there must be a mechanism." ”
The fat man said, "No, you can't take it off or open it, but you should look for where the mechanism is." ”
The stone box was carved with some strange reliefs, a huge disc, on which stood a man with something in his hand, one in one hand, held to the sky, as if performing some ritual.
The poison-eyed dragon found that the thing in the man's hand was very similar to the tiger talisman in my hand, but due to the size of the box, some of it was not clear to see, but the outline was there.
I held the Tiger Talisman and said, "What does this mean?" We only have half a piece in our hands, and besides, where are we going to find this disc? (To be continued.) )
