Chapter 8: Chance Encounters
Hearing the voices of Tie Niu and Yang Luowen, I raised my head and shouted loudly: "Hey, Uncle Yang, is Tie Niu you?" ”
When they heard me talking, they were ecstatic and shouted directly: "Yes, we are down!" ”
Just before I could react, suddenly, a black shadow fell directly from the corridor, 'bang', the black shadow fell heavily on the sarcophagus, I looked, it was no one else, it was the glasses, but the glasses at this time obviously did not have the previous heroic spirit, the glasses he was wearing were broken, the lenses stabbed his eyes, and as for his body, many places were a little like the marks of being scratched by something.
The glasses ** painfully: "Damn, why don't you tell me that it's so high down here, and I almost fell to my death." ”
I said helplessly: "Before I can say it, you jumped off." ”
Before the words fell, followed by two 'bangs' from the corridor, two black shadows jumped down, I looked, and saw that there were already two people lying on the sarcophagus at this time, one of these two people was Ling Xiao, and the other was Yang Luowen, but at this time, the two of them were wounds torn apart by something, seeing this, I raised my head and looked at the Yongdao above and shouted: "Tie Niu, hurry up and come down." ”
Tie Niu shouted: "This Yongdao crossing is too small, I can't get down, I want to open the door and kill it, leave a mark, I will come to you in a while." ”
Before I could say anything, I heard a heart-rending shout from above the corridor, and then it fell silent, and Ah Ting and I followed closely behind the three people on the sarcophagus.
Among the three of them, the glasses were the most seriously injured, the left foot was slightly fractured, the ribs were broken, the eyes were stabbed, and the skin was open everywhere on the body, which was unbearable, and Yang Luowen and Ling Xiao on the side were generally injured and walked normally, as for the glasses, they couldn't walk normally, they could only rely on people to carry him on their backs or crawl on his own little by little.
Ah Ting was a scout and knew a little first aid in the wilderness, he tore his clothes into strips of cloth to help him bandage it a little, we let him rest next to him, I asked Yang Luowen if he had seen this coffin, he told me that he himself only went down to the upper layer of the tomb, not down here, facing this huge coffin, to be honest, he himself was actually a little confused.
Ling Xiao glanced at the stone door, the passage outside the stone door was still full of silver spears, and it was impossible to get out at all, and there were no other passages and secret doors in this room.
Yang Luowen and I didn't pay attention to Ling Xiao and them at all, the two of us were gathered around the coffin at this time looking at the murals below, and the content of the murals he translated was almost the same as what I said, so I didn't translate.
But when he walked up to the words, he pondered, and I asked him, "How?" Uncle Yang, what the hell are you talking about? ”
Yang Luowen frowned and said: "I have been robbing tombs since I was twelve years old, and there are not a thousand but eight hundred tombs under the tomb, and I have seen countless words, almost all of which I have studied, but this text is very similar to that written by two people, and there are many ancient Shu words in the back paragraph, and there are no more than five people in the world who know these ancient Shu words, and they are only half-understood and half-understood." ”
I asked, "Tell us what you know!" ”
Yang Luowen took a closer look and said, "Okay, then I'll tell you what I know!" ”
It is recorded that there is a giant called Qiangu, he is several feet tall, understands yin and yang, knows the destiny of heaven, is very brave and good at fighting, and will invite heavenly soldiers and generals to fight, Qiangu helped the ancient country win the war, the people of the ancient country regarded him as the emperor of heaven, for several years the ancient country has been living very peacefully, but one day after that, the valley suddenly disappeared, the people of the ancient country said that he was taken away by the Yin soldiers of the underworld, and then a lot of demons attacked the ancient country, and many people died in the ancient country, and then there was really no way, and found a yin road to the underground, The country of Wangu sent many people down, but no one came back alive.
Later, the ancient country was defeated, and the country was also occupied by that group of demons, and the people of the ancient country were expelled to the end of the sky by the demons, and the people of the ancient country have always hoped that Qiangu could come back and lead them to kill back to the ancient country, so they have been sending troops down the underworld road to find Qiangu, but no one has come back alive, so many years have passed, one day, out of nowhere, a god came, and God gave them a disc, and the disc could fulfill their wishes, and then the god printed a symbol on the arm of each of them, After that, everyone got their wishes, but God said that if they wanted to maintain their wishes, they had to get more people to exchange their lives for their wishes.
When I said this, I interrupted Yang Luowen's words and said, "That symbol, could it be?" ”
I didn't say the latter words, but Yang Luowen confessed what I said, and nodded repeatedly: "Well, there are many words in the back that are written in ancient Shu characters, I can't understand it, but I know this word, this is the meaning of Chinese students, and then I can't understand the text in the back, only this passage I know, what is written is that the most terrifying thing in the world is not the demon, but the hot and beating heart." ”
After listening, Yang Luowen and I were confused, if the people of the ancient country did not find Qiangu, then why build such a huge tomb for Qiangu, and who is in this coffin?
Thinking of this, Ling Xiao, who had been quiet on the side, said: "Look at the decoration here should be the main tomb, and the most valuable thing here should be the dragon chair on the stairs and these clay figurines next to it, but these things are obviously impossible to move out, and such a large piece, it is not easy to sell, it seems that we can only open this coffin to see if there are any valuable things inside." ”
I glanced at Yang Luowen, and Yang Luowen said: "Well, there is only this one road around here, since we can't get out now, then we can only open this coffin first, and wait here for the iron bull by the way." ”
After finishing speaking, Yang Luowen gave me a look, as if telling me that the coffin must be opened, otherwise they will definitely be suspicious, you must know that the tomb robbers do not enter the tomb for money, then there is definitely a problem.
So I agreed, I, Atin, Yang Luowen, and Ling Xiao tried to push the lid of this coffin, and this push, we knew, damn, at least with the help of heavy machinery to open this coffin, but now we have nothing but a rope, a backpack of food, three pistols, a few machetes and a few military shovels.
After pushing for a while, everyone sat down on the ground to rest, after all, Ling Xiao was a child who had just become an adult, so it was inevitable that he would have many hands and feet, he took a step and ran to the dragon chair on the stairs, and shouted happily: "Mom, I have grown so big, but I have never seen a dragon chair or sat on a dragon chair!" ”
After speaking, he rushed up in a few steps and sat on the dragon chair, this chair made of gold is very large, even if Ling Xiao lies on it, there will be a gap, Ling Xiao sat on it and touched it around, and shouted: "My mother!" How much does such a big lump of gold have to sell for? ”
Just as the three of us were laughing at him, the glasses in the corner suddenly shouted, "Don't sit, hurry down, something is wrong there." ”
As soon as the words fell, everyone was startled, thinking that the eyes of the glasses were injured, how did he see it, but since he had spoken, Ling Xiao still got up obediently, but at the moment when he just got up, a dense array of spears suddenly popped up in the ground around the dragon chair, and the gap between each spear was only less than a hand wide, and directly above the dragon chair, a row of neatly arranged silver spears fell in an instant, and the speed of the silver spear fell extremely fast, it was as if Ling Xiao was going to be stabbed to death in an instant.
At this critical moment, Ling Xiao hid under the dragon chair due to his short stature, and only then did he escape the catastrophe, but this also scared us a lot.
Ling Xiao scolded: "Fuck! What's the matter, don't you just sit in your chair, what's the big deal, you have to fix me like this. ”
I just got up and was about to go to Ling Xiao to see if there was any way to help him, but at the moment when I put my right foot up the steps, Yang Luowen suddenly shouted: "Don't move, don't move, look at the feet and around." ”
As soon as the words fell, I looked around carefully, only to see that the originally empty wall actually emerged countless dense caves at this time, looking at the cave was still bubbling with bursts of cold light, it seemed to be a hidden weapon, I swallowed my saliva and asked: "Then what to do now, how long can I control, the head under my feet has sunk a little, once there is a little uneven force, it is very likely to trigger the mechanism." ”
Yang Luowen shouted: "You stand there and hold on for a while, and wait until I think about whether there is any way." ”
I was anxious, and scolded: "What the hell are you talking about, old man Yang, you don't have a backache when you stand and talk, and those who are here won't kill you, of course you don't care, come, come and stand here, I'll find a way." ”
I was scolding, but Atin behind me kept screaming, as if telling me not to speak.
But at this time, I didn't react at all, or continued to scold a few words, but just when I was halfway through the scolding, suddenly there was a 'gurgling' sound in my ears, I slowly turned my head to look, only to see the two clay figurines on the left and right sides turned their heads and bodies to my side at the same time, and then look at the top, these more than ten clay figurines are all like this, as if they are alive.
I was stunned for a moment and whispered, "Hey, what should I do?" What should Uncle Yang do now? ”
Before the words fell, suddenly, the clay figurines on the left and right sides suddenly waved the silver spears in their hands and cut at my head, I didn't care so much at the time, I directly bent down and dodged the fatal blow, but then, only to hear the 'creak' two sounds, followed by dense countless bows and arrows from the walls on both sides.
The power of the bow and arrow is very great, it is easy to shoot through those mud figurines, the arrows here are very dense, there is no way to live, the only way to live is above the huge coffin, because at this time, only the dragon chair and the coffin on the stairs have not been attacked by the bow and arrow, I think it should be that the ancients were afraid of breaking these two things.
The coffin of more than two meters is not very high, I climbed up in a few steps, and Ah Ting, Uncle Yang also climbed up, and when I looked at the glasses, he was hiding in the corridor at the entrance at this time.
Although there are silver guns in the corridor, but fortunately, the glasses are relatively thin, just enough to hide in the gap between the silver gun and the ground that is only more than 20 centimeters wide, the bows and arrows around them have been shooting for a long time, and the speed is getting faster and faster, and the bows and arrows are getting denser and denser, and the dozen or so moving clay figurines are torn apart, but at the same time as they are broken, I don't know where out of them actually ran out of a few jet-black, more than 5 centimeters long, more than 2 centimeters wide, with two slender whiskers on their heads, Beneath the whiskers was a whole mouth, which looked terrifying, and these insects somehow crawled on the ground motionless, but kept their heads facing us, as if they wanted to eat us.
