Chapter 244: Evil Water

As a professional tomb robber, the fat man claims to be the top master of the Northern School, that is, the Captain of the Golden Touch, which is often mentioned in the novel, but he did not touch the Golden Talisman, Huang Tian and I often say that he is a copycat version of the Captain of the Golden Touch, even if it is fake, at least you should get a Golden Talisman to hang up, right?

The fat man said, that thing is useless at all, first, it is difficult to find the ancient one now when touching the golden talisman, and secondly, it is difficult to say whether the ancestor will be blessed or not, it is enough to have a magic technique, I can deal with the zombie demon myself, why do I have to wear that thing?

Although there is no Captain Touching Gold, among the younger generation of tomb robbers in the country, the fat man is still a famous figure, whether it is the Tufuzi of the Southern School or the Captain of the Northern School, they all recognize his skills.

Whether it is the southern school or the northern school, but anyone who does this kind of livelihood, the ability to divide gold and set holes, smell the soil and distinguish the taste is the first, and you can know what the soil layer below is when you shovel, and how deep the underground is the tomb.

The fat man dug down a few times and found that something was wrong, the soil layer here had been turned over, which means that before us, someone must have made a hole in the same position, which caused the soil layer here to change.

With the words of the fat man, we also hurried over to take a look, but after all, we are non-professionals, and we can't see anything, and we think that the soil is not all the same? What is the difference between being touched and not being touched?

"Hehe, it seems that although Lao Tzu hasn't fought for a long time, but this skill has not been lost, the position of the point is exactly the same as that of the previous masters, this is easy to do, follow the traces left by him to dig down, it must be much faster than we choose another place."

The fat man ignored us, waved the shovel and kept digging, and dug more than one person deep in half an hour, because the digging was relatively narrow, so the soil could not be thrown. We vacated a rucksack and tied it to a rope and hung it out.

Anyway, this is a deep mountain and old forest, and there is no need to make soil, so the soil we dug out is piled up not far away, and there is a big difference in robbing tombs in this plain area.

In densely populated places, the most important thing is to make soil and cover people's eyes and ears, some are to buy a house relatively close to the ancient tomb, pretending to be repaired, and some to build a house and a temple as a cover, in short, it is a purpose. Don't let anyone know what they're doing.

In any era, tomb robbery is a capital crime, the laws of the Ming and Qing dynasties have clear provisions, stealing graves and digging graves to be decided, that is, anyone who is caught robbing tombs can be executed on the spot, can it be done without doing some work to cover people's eyes?

"This old-timer is still an ancient, at least a person before the Ming Dynasty, looking at the thieves in a decent manner. According to the tradition handed down from the tomb robbery world, the ancient circle of the robbery cave is near, and his robbery hole is round, and he is definitely a master. ”

The fat man was digging underneath and snorting in admiration. Because robbing holes is also a technical job, the previous tomb robbery world had very strict rules, all of which were inherited from master and apprentice father and son, and the robbery hole was just enough for a person to get into. Unlike some tomb robbers who have no inheritance now, they dig up indiscriminately, and they steal holes like dogs. Explosives are used to blast them, and there is no tomb that has not collapsed.

After working for a while, the fat man climbed out to breathe, I continued to dig, the fat man pointed out and said, there are obvious traces of peeling of the surrounding soil layer, don't move those, dig slowly, we have time.

After I went down to the thief hole, I realized that it was so fucking aggrieved inside, and it was really hard for the fat man's spherical body to last so long in it.

The thief hole is filled with a smell of dirt, fortunately, I came out of the countryside before digging a sweet potato cellar, similar to this, although it hasn't dried for a long time, but the bottom is still there, and the digging is also very fast.

Bags of dirt were hoisted up, and I was sweating like rain underneath, and the fat man was smoking on top and teasing me, saying, "Ho, I don't see it!" Liangzi actually has a talent in this area, or you worship me as a teacher, I will teach you all the ways to rob tombs, and it can be regarded as an explanation to my master. ”

I snorted, ignored him, and continued to dig, now it has penetrated more than two meters into the ground and approached three meters, and there is still no rammed earth layer, it seems that this old man really hit the thief hole directly into the tomb, but I don't know if this product has succeeded, if he has already taken those ancestral magic weapons out of the magic, our trip will be in vain.

At this moment, the searchlight above my head suddenly noticed that the soil layer below was actually a strange red color, and it was unusually damp, as if blood was constantly oozing from below.

I was so startled that I didn't even need a shovel, and hurriedly climbed up, shouting the names of the fat man and Huang Tian loudly as I crawled.

"Oh no, fat man, there's a bloody corpse grave down here! Blood seeps out of the soil. ”

The fat man jumped over, grabbed the hand that had been at the entrance of the hole, pulled me out with all his might, and shone it down with a flashlight, only to see that the broken soil below really showed a strange red.

"What bloody corpse grave? It's all a story made up in a novel, do you believe it? I'll go down and see what's going on. ”

Saying that, the fat man jumped into the thief hole, picked up the shovel I threw down and continued to dig, just dug twice, suddenly there was a muffled sound, the fat man sighed and said: "Damn, there are bones in such a deep place, it seems that the predecessor is more than lucky!" ”

I can't help but admire the courage of fat people, the more you read, the more timid you become, just like the old saying, the older the rivers and lakes, the less courageous. However, the fat man has much more experience in the rivers and lakes than me, but he is not timid at all.

As the fat man moved below, we also carried up the soil one by one, and when we poured the soil, we found some white bones that had been cut off by the fat man with a shovel, mixed with the blood-colored soil, which looked particularly terrifying.

"Damn, it's here, and it's finally not in vain." The fat man let out a sigh of relief from below, waved the shovel in his hand and slammed it on the wall of the cave beside him, and suddenly a large black hole appeared, like the mouth of a monster, bubbling out with cold air.

The fat man crawled out, lay on his back on the grass, and said while panting: "It's been opened, let the air go first, I don't know how many years no one has touched the ancient tomb, there is very likely to be some poisonous gas in it, we will go down in an hour, and it is estimated that the air inside will be almost changed." ”

Tossed for so long. Seeing that it's almost noon, Huang Tian and I are not tired, but the fat man is tired enough, in his words, taking the two of you is equivalent to taking two novice apprentices, and you want to tire me to death!

We are noncommittal about this, because the fat man is telling the truth, I don't need to say it, the digging will, but compared to professionals like the fat man, it is far worse. Huang Tian is even more not, he is a first-class master by looking at feng shui, but this underground work cannot be solved just by looking at feng shui.

Took the military kettle to a nearby stream and poured some water for the fat man to wash his face, after all, I didn't do anything, basically the entire thief hole was made by the fat man, and it was also appropriate to serve this great hero, isn't there such a sentence? On the day of the return of the edict, I and the general untied their battle robes.

I fetched the water back, and Huang Tian had already built a fire. Set the hanging pot on top of the campfire and prepare to cook some instant noodles, and if you survive in the wild, you will definitely not be able to eat as moisturizing as at home.

There are a lot of streams in Helan Mountain, although the flow is not large. But it's still okay for people to drink and wash their faces and feet.

The fat man didn't even get up and just lay on the ground and started snoring, and we knew that this guy was tired enough to not bother him before boiling the water.

Taking advantage of the yellow day to boil water, I went to the nearby woods to find some wild fruits and other things. It's kind of adjusting the taste, but I'm still quite cautious, and I don't want any fruit I don't know. In addition, I found some mushrooms and planned to make a shiitake mushroom ham noodles.

When I came back, I found that Huang Tian's face was extremely ugly, and there was a faint smell in the air, and I didn't know what was going on.

The fat man was also awakened by this faint smell, rubbed his eyes and said, "Where did the smell of rotting corpses come from?" ”

I didn't know what this smell was at first, but as soon as the fat man said it, I immediately remembered, isn't this smell the smell of rotting corpses? I've smelled it before, too.

Huang Tiantie blushed and pointed to the water in the pot: "The smell comes from here, there is a problem with this water, and the upstream must have passed through a large area with corpses, otherwise it is absolutely impossible to have such a strong taste." ”

I gasped, the water looked clear and cold, but fortunately Lao Tzu didn't drink it at the time, otherwise something might have happened.

"Ryoko, where did you get this water, take us to see it."

The fat man also came to his senses and asked Huang Tian to pour out the water in the pot, and even this pot could no longer be used, so he could only use the tea jar to cook instant noodles.

I quickly put down what I was holding and led them to the nearby place where I had taken water, and it was a small stream that flowed out of the cracks in the rocks in the mountains and gathered together to form a babbling stream.

The fat man stirred his hand in the water twice, then put his hand under his nose and sniffed it vigorously, frowned and said: "That's right, the upstream of this water must have passed through a place with a large number of corpses, otherwise it would not have been possible to have such a strong smell, it seems that this ancient tomb is not simple!" After more than 2,000 years, it is said that the corpse should have ceased to exist a long time ago, how could it still smell like this? ”

This water source is no longer usable, we had to find another farther water source, the pot brushed no less than ten times, the fat man said, no matter how much brushing is useless, but the human psychology can not pass, in fact, it has long been clean.

Anyway, the water boiled in this pot is undrinkable, and it is disgusting to think about it, but it is still possible to boil water to soak your feet, so we used an enamel jar to boil a small amount of water to make noodles, and we can eat it hot anyway.

Just after the bonfire was doused with water in the yellow sky, we were holding the enamel jar and eating the boiled instant noodles, when suddenly the wind started, and a cold wind from Siberia whistled like knives.

As I passed through this valley, I suddenly let out a series of ghostly wolf howls, so frightened that I almost threw away the enamel jar, and the sound was really sharp and harsh.

The fat man stood up, looked around and said, "Damn, there is really something around here, what the old guy said is not wrong at all, but he dares to come out in broad daylight, don't let the fat man catch it, otherwise you won't even be able to do ghosts." ”

The fat man's words scared me, is there really something dirty around here? How many years old is this tomb, even if there are ghosts, they should have been reincarnated a long time ago, how can they still stay here?

Huang Tian was also stunned, put the enamel jar in his hand on the ground, chose a towering birch tree, and climbed up one arch after another, we were all stunned by Huang Tian's actions, what is this kid doing? Could it be that there are bears infested? But if there is really a bear, he should also warn us, and it is common sense that there are no bears in Helan Mountain.

After waiting for a while, Huang Tian had already climbed the branch, and he didn't stop at all, but continued to climb up, seeing that it meant that he had to climb up to the treetops before he would stop, but now the wind was strong, and if he fell down, he would have to break his arms and legs if he couldn't die.

I stood below and asked Huang Tian what he wanted to do, but he didn't answer me, just climbed up vigorously, almost reaching the top before stopping, holding the trunk with both hands and looking around.

At this time, the fat man and I realized that this kid originally wanted to see the feng shui pattern in this vicinity! If we don't say it sooner, we think something is wrong.

However, knowing that there is dirt in the vicinity and still being able to eat so calmly, we are proud enough, and we are much better than those who are scared when they hear about dirty things.

Because Huang Tian wanted to see the feng shui pattern, we didn't bother him, the fat man didn't care about the dirty things around him at all, he took out a bottle of two taels of Niu Er from his backpack, and ate instant noodles and ham while drinking, as for the mushrooms I picked, they were naturally thrown away, and there was no way to eat them.

After waiting for about ten minutes, the ham finally slipped down the trunk of the tree, and sat on the ground with one foot on the ground, his legs trembled, this guy himself has a leg problem, and his legs cramped when he was nervous, and he probably cramped again now, right?

"No wonder there are dirty things here, there is a problem with the feng shui here, I really didn't see it at first, this is a Nine Yin Gathering Array, but whoever dies here, the soul cannot be reincarnated, and can only guard this mausoleum for the rest of his life, which is equivalent to a place where tomb robbers kill each other, and it is impossible for anyone to steal anything inside."

After resting for a while, Huang Tian told us about his discovery, this ancient tomb looks ordinary, but it hides a murderous intention, which is formed with the power of feng shui, as more and more tomb robbers come here, there will be more and more ghosts here, and finally form such a ghost fence that no one can approach.
