Chapter 26: Tomb Robbers
At this time, I could vaguely hear their conversation.
One man said, "Finally inside!" It's so easy! No matter what it is this time, Lao Tzu has to take it away, otherwise he will be sorry for himself! ”
Another man said, "Can you remove this statue?" Let's hurry up, or the monsters will come back in a while, and we'll run out of bullets! And just a flare was wasted! ”
"It's not a waste! At least we've finally found our destination! ”
The monsters? Could it be that they were also besieged by the spirits?
Outside, there was the sound of iron tools clashing and digging.
I asked, "What are they doing?" It's like digging something. ”
Meng Yingjiu said: "Take this time, let's go around behind them. There were doors in front of and behind the wall, and we went out through the door at the back. ”
So we chose to give up looking for the secret passage and the coffin, stood up and walked out cautiously one by one. Because we couldn't turn on the flashlight, we could only slowly walk out of the stone tower in the dark. Walking outside the door, we could barely see a little bit by their light, and we walked quietly in the darkness.
The two men were digging under the giant statue. The light was not good just now, but now the hall was bright, and I realized that the giant statue was much bigger than I expected, almost 3 stories high.
We are behind the statue, and we can only see the back of the statue. It held its hands up in the air, as if it were holding something. The head of the statue is large and long, and it has large ears.
One of the men suddenly shouted, "Who's there?" ”
Depend on! Our footsteps were so soft that they could all be heard.
We immediately stopped, not daring to move, only to realize that they were pointing in the opposite direction to us. Relax a little, but who else is over there?
Then the sound of a bullet being loaded was heard, and one of the men raised his gun and pointed it over there and said, "Get out of here!" My guns don't like disobedient people! ”
A person slowly walked out of the darkness, but the distance was too far to see his face clearly, and judging from the figure, it should be a man.
He went to the light and said, "You can't dig up the contents of this sacrificial pit!" ”
Meng Yingjiu pulled my hand and signaled that now was a better time and that we should leave immediately. I put away my curiosity, pulled Zou Zhou, and motioned for him to start again.
He just looked at it and didn't move, and I raised my hand and shook it in front of his eyes. He came back to his senses, pulled me, opened his mouth wide with excitement and said, "That's my dad!" ”
Zou Xin? I was surprised and asked, "Are you sure?" ”
Zou Zhou nodded, this kid still cares about his father very much! I immediately grabbed Meng Yingjiu, pointed at that person and said, "That's Zou Zhou's father!" ”
Meng Yingjiu stopped, and we crouched by the wall to refocus on the movement over there, but we had already missed their conversation just now
I only heard the man with the gun sneer and say, "Humph! If we dare to steal from the dead, we are not afraid of what you say. “
Stealing the dead?! It turned out to be two tomb robbers! But what did Zou Xin say?
Another man said, "Kill him quickly, don't delay us." “
They actually wanted to kill people, and at this time, Zou Zhou suddenly threw a flashlight at the gate of the stone tower. The flashlight flew out and fell in front of the stone door, where it was smashed into flames.
The tomb robbers were startled by the sudden sound and light, and they immediately turned to look at the stone gate,
We quickly crept around behind them, but because it was so quiet, they still spotted us when we were about to get close to them.
A beam of light shone towards us, followed by a gunshot. Meng Yingjiu pulled me back, only to feel a strong wind blowing in my ears, and I fell to the ground. Zou Zhou shouted: "It's me!" ”
Almost at the same time, I saw Meng Yingjiu pounce on the man with the gun. Then Zou Xin also fought with another man, and Zou Zhou also ran over to help.
I hurriedly got up, but I felt that I couldn't help much, and soon, Meng Yingjiu grabbed the man's pistol, threw the pistol to me and said, "Lin Min, catch it!" ”
It was hard to imagine that he threw it accurately at such a moment, and I reached out and caught the pistol steadily.
Meng Yingjiu had already subdued the tomb robber, and he didn't know how he did it, he actually tied the tomb robber's hand with the tomb robber's clothes and pressed him under his knees.
At this time, hearing a scream from Zou Zhou's side, Zou Xin fell to the ground, covering his stomach. I raised my pistol and yelled at them, "Don't move!" Or I'll shoot! “
The grave robber immediately stopped, holding a dagger in his hand, the tip of which was still dripping with blood.
Zou Zhou ran to Zou Xin and asked, "Dad, what's wrong with you!" “
I picked up a gun and pointed it at the tomb robber, and walked up to Zou Xin to find that he had been stabbed in the stomach by the tomb robber. Blood flowed all over the ground, and Zou Zhou was already frightened, so he just helped to hold Zou Xin's stomach with his hands.
Zou Xin said something tremblingly, but I heard it clearly, and at the moment when I was distracted, the tomb robber with a dagger suddenly rushed towards me! I subconsciously avoided it.
Meng Yingjiu called: "Lin Min! Shoot fast. ”
I raised my gun again to the grave robbers, but I hesitated to look at him. If I shoot him now, I'll hit him right in the head! One shot ended his life. But I didn't dare, and I didn't want to kill.
The grave robber saw the cowardice in my eyes, and he stabbed me again with a dagger, but I still didn't dare to kill him, so I simply shot him in the thigh. The moment I fired the gun, the recoil of the pistol shook my mouth and I felt like my hand bones were about to shatter.
This recoil made my hand go up, and naturally it didn't hit. The grave robber saw that I didn't know how to use a gun at all, and he became even more bold and stabbed me in the face with a dagger.
I endured the pain and fired again, only to find that I had pressed the trigger and the pistol was not responding. The grave robber smiled and said, "Haha, there are no bullets!" Want it? Come to me and get it! With that, he continued to stab me with his dagger.
I retreated and dodged, and the grave robbers pressed in. One accident, I actually fell at such a critical moment, and the pistol was also dropped.
Seeing that I was about to have no time to dodge the tomb robber's dagger, at this time, Meng Yingjiu suddenly rushed up and grabbed the tomb robber.
Meng Yingjiu pulled the tomb robber back, kicked him in the face again, and then reached out to snatch the dagger. The tomb robbers were also very vicious, and they stabbed directly with a dagger, and in the chaos, Meng Yingjiu's arm was cut by the dagger.
When I saw the long wound, I felt my heart hit hard, and tears flowed out of my eyes. It's all because I'm too soft-hearted and hesitant, otherwise he wouldn't have been hurt.
Meng Yingjiu and the tomb robbers scuffled together, and I was only angry that I couldn't help. But soon, Meng Yingjiu grabbed the tomb robber's dagger. Without hesitation, he picked up the dagger and stabbed it directly into the heart of the tomb robber.
The grave robber struggled a few times before he died. It's the first time I've seen a person die so closely, and be killed. His eyes were wide open, and fortunately he didn't look at me, but I still felt scared.
Meng Yingjiu put the corpse on the ground and closed the corpse's eyes. At this time, the tomb robbers who had just been tied by Meng Yingjiu groped their way to their feet, trying to escape.
Meng Yingjiu pulled out the dagger inserted in the corpse's chest, and blood gushed out at once. Seeing this, the tomb robber hurriedly said, "Heroes spare their lives!" We are also just for life, and if you say you don't dig it, then you don't dig it! Let me go. “
Meng Yingjiu put away the dagger and said, "You go." “
The grave robber immediately turned and ran towards the gate of the wall, then suddenly turned and threw it at the place where the pistol had dropped ID. Not good, if he grabs the pistol and loads it, we're in trouble.
Suddenly, a cold light flashed in front of him, and the tomb robber fell down as soon as he picked up the pistol. Before I could react to what was going on, Meng Yingjiu walked to the side of the tomb robber, and I saw the tomb robber with the dagger that Meng Yingjiu was holding just now on his neck!
Meng Yingjiu's skills shocked me again, but what shocked me even more was that we actually killed two people here. The air was filled with the pungent smell of blood, and at this moment, my mood was very complicated, and suddenly there was no fear, and in its place was actually a kind of numbness.
I can only keep repeating in my heart that if we don't kill them, then we will be killed by them...... I don't want to die!
Meng Yingjiu pulled out the dagger from the corpse again, wiped the blood stains on the dagger with the clothes of the dead tomb robber, then picked up the dagger holster on the ground, put the dagger away, and said to me: "Take it and use it for self-defense." “
I was a little scared to think that it had killed someone, and that man's body was still lying here, so I said, "You might as well take it." ”
Meng Yingjiu thought about it and didn't say anything more, and put away the dagger himself. Seeing the wound on his arm, my mind returned to normal. I hurried up to look at the wound on his arm, only to find that his wound was no longer bleeding.
Meng Yingjiu said: "I'm fine, go and see Zou Xin." “
"Such a big opening! How can it be okay? “
Meng Yingjiu covered his arm and didn't let me see it. He pulled me to Zou Xin's side, and Zou Zhou was bandaging Zou Xin's wound with gauze. Zou Xin was sweating profusely, and his expression was very painful. Meng Yingjiu asked, "Are you okay?" “
Zou Xin looked at us and said, "Didn't let him stab the vital point... It's nothing. ”
I asked, "Where did the gauze come from?" Anything else? ”
Zou Zhou pointed to a backpack beside him with his chin and said, "There are still some here, you can take them and bandage your brother." “
I walked over to him and opened my backpack. It was found that there was not only gauze inside, but also disinfectant cotton balls and band-aids. He took out gauze and a cotton ball and said, "Whose backpack is this?" Everything is so complete. “
Zou Xin said slowly: "We often inspect outside, and these things are necessary. ”
I took something and bandaged Meng Yingjiu, but he was not very willing, but he still asked me to bandage it. But his long wound didn't look so scary now, and the blood had clotted. I wiped the wound with a cotton ball and found that the wound was just a thin red line.
I asked, "Isn't that scary looking?" Why does it seem like a little bit of skin is scratched now? "I still wrapped gauze around his arms.
Meng Yingjiu looked at his arm that was wrapped by me, and said with some grievance: "It's nothing, you have to bandage it." ”
I said, "Of course you have to bandage it, it's so dirty here, if it gets infected, it's going to be a problem!" By the way, what about the knife? Is there any rust? The way you look, you need a tetanus shot. “
Meng Yingjiu showed me the dagger, I took it, pulled out the dagger, and fortunately it was not rusty. I didn't look carefully just now, this dagger is exquisitely made, and the handle is decorated with coiled snakes, and there is a little bit of classical meaning.
I returned the dagger to Meng Yingjiu. Zou Zhou also helped Zou Xin bandage it, the strange thing is that he doesn't seem to have so much hostility towards his father now, this should be the power of family affection. Man. It is always when we are separated from life and death that we will remember these true feelings that are usually around us, and we will know how to cherish them.
We found a piece of clothing from the tomb robber's backpack, as well as bullets. Meng Yingjiu loaded the bullet into the pistol, he originally wanted to give the pistol to me, but I was afraid that I would drop the chain at a critical moment, so I asked him to give the pistol to Zou Zhou.
And the most important thing for me was to find food and water. Zou Zhou put his clothes under Zou Xin's head and let him lie down to rest, and then we also sat next to him to eat and replenish our energy.
