That hand had a strong earthy smell. I was so cuffed around my neck that I couldn't breathe for a while.

I tried to call for help, but I couldn't make a sound. At this time. I saw the man in the shadows slowly crawl out. It was Li San.

The expression on his face was cold. When he looked at me, I felt that I was not a living person, but a lifeless thing.

He walked over slowly and waved his hand. Immediately, the man behind me began to pull me out of the yard.

I kicked the ground with both feet, trying to make a muffled sound. However, Mr. Lui still did not move as he did last night.

I've been dragged to the gate. I stretched out my leg and kicked the two big iron doors hard.

The iron door made a crunch. I felt that arm relax a little. I opened my mouth wide and breathed hard. Immediately, the arm tightened again.

At this time, the people in the house finally heard the movement. I saw the oil lamps come on. Then a figure with a hunched back walked out slowly with an oil lamp. It was Li Mugu.

However, at the very moment when he was about to step out of the house. There was a flicker of people in the room. Someone stopped him.

I saw the man wearing a yellow robe. It's clearly the Taoist priest. The Taoist priest was young and strong, and he stopped at the door, and Li Mugu couldn't get out at all.

I heard him shouting, but no one around me answered.

I saw that I was dragged out of the gate, and my heart was cold: "The Taoist priest wants to stop it." I'm afraid it's not just Li Mugu, his real purpose is Mr. Lu and Xue Qian. ”

As soon as I figured this out, I was dragged out of the door. I turned around the corner. The brick walls blocked my view, and I couldn't see it anymore.

I was dragged upside down and walked quickly down the street. When I got to the intersection, the man behind me kicked me in the leg hard. Dumb group brother.

As soon as my leg hurt, I fell to my knees. I was shocked: "It's over, this is going to be beheaded." ”

At this moment, suddenly a series of sounds sounded behind me, densely packed, as if someone was knocking on something. The voice was fast and urgent, and it came far and wide in the quiet of the night.

I felt my neck loosen and the person behind me let me go.

I took two steps forward. Look back. Xue Qian was holding a broken iron basin in one hand and a wooden stick in the other, and was standing in the corner and knocking vigorously.

And Mr. Lu was wandering around, beating Li San and Wang Wu. The two of them seemed to be stunned by the noise next to them, and their reactions were a little slow.

Presumably, these two were the ones who caught me here.

Mr. Lu pushed the two of them to the ground, and then shouted, "Zhao Mang, lift off their shirts." ”

I said yes and went to unbutton.

Mr. Lu shouted: "Just rip it off." ”

I hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, yes." What do I unbutton. "I felt like a rapist at this time, I grabbed Li San and Wang Wu's clothes and pulled them hard. Expose their chests.

When I saw their chests. I was taken aback. Shouted. He sat down on the ground.

On the chests of both of them, without exception, there was a figurine. I don't know what kind of material the figurines were made of, they were clinging to the chests of the two men, and they looked at me with hideous eyebrows and grinning teeth.

Li San and Wang Wu were struggling violently. Mr. Lu called, "What are you rubbing? I can't catch them anymore. Take the figurines down. ”

I held back my nausea and reached out. Grabbed the figurine on Li San's chest. Then I tugged hard. Li San screamed miserably. Subsequently, I took down the figurines. His body shook twice, and he fell to the ground.

Solved Li San. Mr. Lu finally freed his hand. The five kings were held to death. I did the same, grabbed the figurines on Wang Wu's body again, and pulled them down hard.

At this moment, Xue Qian suddenly shouted: "Be careful." ”

I haven't reacted yet to why be careful. Suddenly, I felt a heavy blow to the back of my head. I heard a buzzing sound, and my brain went numb. Then, the world swirled, and his eyes turned a little black.

I could feel my body fall to the ground, and the stones hurt my face.

Actually, I didn't faint. After more than ten seconds, I barely opened my eyes. I saw that Mr. Lu had already knocked Wang Wu down, and then joined forces with Xue Qian to capture the yellow-robed Taoist priest.

By the time I got up, the figurines had been removed from all three of them. The three men were slumped on the ground, their faces pale, as if they had a serious illness.

Mr. Lu waved at me: "It's okay." It's time to relax. ”

The three of us stood on the ground panting. At this time, a trembling voice asked, "What's going on?" ”

We turned around and saw Li Mugu walking over with an oil lamp with a complicated expression.

He saw Li San fall to the ground, and he didn't care that the oil lamp was from the Guangxu period. I saw him put the oil lamp on the ground, and with a crunch, a small piece of it collapsed.

Li Mugu didn't seem to hear it, and he didn't look at the oil lamp. just pounced, lay on Li San's body, and shouted loudly: "Son, what's wrong with you?" ”

He looked up, and there were tears in his old eyes: "Little brother." I'm kind enough to keep you overnight. Look, how did you hurt my son? ”

Mr. Lu looked calm: "Old man, even if you haven't seen all of what happened just now, you should have seen part of it, right?" Don't you see that? Tonight, something is wrong with your son. ”

Li Mugu finally nodded, and he whispered, "I saw the two of them kidnap Zhao Mang away. I wanted to call someone, but no one answered. ”

Then, he asked a little nervously, "Is the dirty thing still there?" Got on them? ”

Mr. Lu shook his head: "Dirty things, I'm afraid the three of them brought it back." Since you like antiquities, you should know about such things as meat maids. ”

Mr. Lu said the name. Li Mugu immediately became anxious. His eyes widened and he said, "Meat maid, you mean, someone made my son a meat maid?" Who is this man? ”

Mr. Lu waved his hand and said, "Don't worry. I've taken it off for him. Wait for him to rest for the night, and it will be fine. ”

Li Mugu's expression was moved, and he no longer had the intention of asking the teacher before. He arched his hand to Mr. Lu, and then said: "The grace of life, the old man is grateful. Please bow down to me. ”

Then, he was about to kowtow to Mr. Lu.

Mr. Lu hurriedly stretched out his hand and held him up. Then he said, "Don't be so polite, they will wake up after dawn." I still have something to ask him. ”

Li Mugu nodded, and stood up.

I saw silence around me. Only Li San and a few people were left lying on the ground.

Xue Qian asked, "Do you want to move the three of them back?" ”

Mr. Lu shook his head: "This place is right at the crossroads, and yin and yang are connected. Let them slow down here. ”

I asked curiously, "What do you mean by the meat maid just now?" ”

I picked up the figurines I took from Li San and looked at them carefully, this thing was carved from clay. On its back, there was a claw carved, and it was this claw that grabbed Li San's body just now. Although it was taken off at this time, there was some blood on the claw.

I pointed to the figurine and said, "Isn't this made of clay?" ”

Mr. Lu said: "The previous emperors and generals were all martyred, you know this, right? ”

I nodded, "Yes." ”

Mr. Lu continued: "At that time, some people wanted to be martyred, but they didn't have so much financial resources, and they wanted to be buried with figurines made of clay, and they were a little unwilling. So someone invented this method. Claws are carved on the back of the figurines and a secret spell is cast. If a grave robber breaks in. This terracotta figurine will catch the tomb robber and arrest him. Then come and give the tomb owner a burial. In this case, the tomb robber is called a meat servant. ”

Later, martyrdom was abolished. But some people still secretly keep this terracotta figurines in tombs. On the one hand, he wanted to capture two living people and bury them. On the other hand, it can be regarded as an anti-theft measure. ”
