The Tomb of the Yellow Skin Chapter 44 The Underworld

I couldn't hide it, so I briefly told her about the situation after she passed out, and the fat man added that the old sheepskin was a class enemy who infiltrated the people, Ding Sitian said how could this be possible, the fat man pointed at me and said: "What he said, I will go back and hold a reasoning struggle meeting to expose the gangster face of the old sheepskin." ”

I had no choice but to tell the truth: "We haven't closed our eyes for two days and one night, and I'm worried that the old sheepskin will do something stupid when we are too tired to bear it and fall asleep, so I found an excuse to tie him up." I can't think of a thousand cautions, ten thousand cautions, but something still goes wrong. Don't look at the old sheepskin who usually doesn't talk much, but he has a very right idea, and the nine cows can't pull the things that are accurate, I think he must be superstitious and wants to go to his brother and the sheep to summon spirits. ”

Based on this period of contact, I dare to assert that the old sheepskin must have woken up early, and then secretly returned to the underground chamber to find the mysterious copper chest. It's just that we slept too deeply, and we don't know how long he's been gone, and now it's too late to catch up with him.

The fat man said: "Okay, old Hu, you unlucky bastard and you have the ingenuity to use me as a big blade, I thought you were vigilant enough to find out the new trend of the class struggle, it turns out that the old sheepskin is still the old sheepskin, what now?" Shall we hurry back to the secret room to find him, or what's the matter? I...... I fell asleep just now, and I dreamed of the female corpse in the secret room, and that cold grimace was really evil, but my heavenly soldiers were furious, swept through thousands of armies, and kicked them into the big garbage heap that piled up the dust of history. ”

Ding Sitian listened to the fat man's words and exclaimed in a low voice: "Ah...... Why did you dream of that female corpse too, Chubby? I...... I dreamed it just now, I don't know if you feel it, but I think it...... The corpse of the woman...... She...... She's still alive......"

When I heard the fat man's dream just now, I knew that he had dreamed of the big Xianbei witch, but I didn't expect Ding Sitian to have the same dream. Two people may be a coincidence, all three of them dreamed, that is really hell. And the feeling that Ding Sitian said, I also really experienced, but it didn't seem to be a living feeling, it was not intuitive, it was difficult to describe in words, it was just a strong feeling, a feeling that made people hairy all over.

After a little discussion with the fat man and Ding Sitian, I made a decision, even if there are really ghosts in the secret, we have to go back, we must find the old sheepskin, see people in life, and see corpses in death, even if he was a tomb robber who had been fighting before. Divided by composition, it should also belong to the majority that can be united. It is the craftsmen who eat by their craft, and they have no production capital, at most they are craftsmen, and they belong to the internal contradictions of the people with us. Moreover, the tomb owners of the stolen tombs are almost all the exploiting ruling class standing on the opposite side of the working people, and in a larger way, the heroes and heroes of all walks of life who have rebelled and revolted have unearthed many heroic deeds of the emperor's tomb, from the Red Eyebrow Army to Zhang Xianzhong, there are not many ancient peasant armies who have not done this kind of thing. So at that time, none of us thought that there was anything unjustifiable about the craftsmen who fought backwards, and in the evil old society, how many poor people's blood and tears were feuding, could it not be done? The old sheepskin must be retrieved anyway.

I wanted Ding Sitian and the fat man to stay, and I went to find the old sheepskin by myself, but Ding Sitian gritted his teeth and wanted to go with him, regardless of his weakness, so he had to go back together with the three of them. At that time, we had a preconceived and subtle understanding of the incorruptible female corpse, although we didn't say it, but in the subconscious of our hearts, we regarded it as a female monster like a white bone spirit. So unconsciously, I read "The golden monkey rose up and did the stick, and Yuyu clarified thousands of miles." Hail Sun Dasheng today, only because the demonic atmosphere is coming back again, "give yourself courage." We walked and encouraged each other, and it was strange to say that there was no sense of horror at all, which shows that the spiritual atomic bomb was really not blown out. The three of them found their way and quickly circled back to the door of the chamber again.

The fat man was still reciting "A qiē reactionaries are paper tigers" to embolden everyone. I pressed his mouth and said to him and Ding Sitian, "Do you feel any changes around here?" It doesn't seem to be the same as when we first came. ”

Ding Sitian is naturally sensitive: "It seems to ...... It's as if the ghost in the secret room is gone, and there is no creepy feeling that I had when I first came......"

She was right, I already felt something different in front of the door of this secret room, the sense of intimidation that came from the darkness in the darkness no longer existed, not because our spiritual atomic bomb added to our own courage, but because the unsettling things in the secret room had disappeared, could it be that the female corpse wearing the mask was no longer there?

The anxiety of not knowing the truth is more unsettling than the direct threat, and instead of guessing in front of the door, it is better to see it and go in to see the truth. Thinking of this, the three of us called the name of the old sheepskin into the room a few times, and when we saw that there was no response, we went into the secret room close together, and the sapper lamps shone around, and it was still a mess all over the ground, and the dead corpses and those rotting corpses were piled up all over the ground, and when we looked inside, we couldn't help but let out a "huh".

Surprisingly, the masked shrine maiden's body was still lying peacefully on the stone table, but when you look at it again this time, it is clear that it is just a soulless shell, like the rest of the dead in the laboratory, and the haunting threat of the chamber is gone.

Something must have happened here when we were too tired to fall asleep. I took the fat man and Ding Sitian to look at the rest of the place, there was no old sheep's hair in the secret room, and the sheep and eggs who were wearing black clothes and had red tapess around their waists were still flat on the ground. The fat man guessed wisely: "The old sheepskin may have been afraid to hold his reasoning struggle meeting, and as a result, the soles of his feet were oiled - slipped, and I think it is most likely that he will flee to the border to join Su Xiu and eat butter bread." ”

I shook my head and said, "No way, if he wants to defect to the enemy, he won't come to this secret room again." When we left, I remember kicking the Wong Tai Sin box into the corner, but look at it, why is the copper box missing? It must have been the old sheepskin that came back and took it away. ”

Ding Sitian asked worriedly: "What is the old sheepskin grandfather doing this for?" Where is he now? ”

I said, "Maybe he still has something to hide from us about the soul box," Speaking ......of this, it suddenly occurred to me that the ghost feeling suddenly disappeared in this secret room, probably because the yellow-skinned copper box was gone. Perhaps from the very beginning, we made a subjective blind judgment wrongly, because when we saw the female corpse in this secret room, we felt as if there were undead wandering here, but in fact, the cold atmosphere that made people feel uncomfortable from the bottom of our hearts came from the copper box engraved with a yellow leather head, and the copper box was taken away by the old sheepskin, so there was no dark and invisible atmosphere in this secret room.

So far, we still don't know exactly what the box contains, but it seems to be a bad luck, we can't think of what the motive of the old sheepskin is, could it be that the corpse in this secret room is not a sheep egg at all, otherwise how could the old sheepskin leave him alone? Whatever the old sheepskin's intentions were, he was now a very dangerous uncertaintie.

I said to the fat man and Ding Sitian: "Now I don't know where the old sheepskin is going, the terrain of the Hundred Eyes Cave is complicated, and the danger is everywhere, just the three of us, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack to find him, withdraw first and then discuss a way." ”

The fat man said, "Before you leave, bring a fire to this place, so that you may not leave trouble." He had a soft spot for setting fires, and he didn't wait for anyone else's consent, so he went to find the fire. There are planks and sticks in this chamber. He took a white cloth for covering, found some alcohol and poured it, and immediately lit a fire.

I thought to myself, it is better to burn it, dust to dust, dust to earth, leaving a corpse that will not rot for a hundred years, not necessarily the deceased's wishes, burn the corpses, so as not to let them remain ugly. Seeing that the fire was growing, we had to start exiting the secret room, and as the female corpse approached, I could no longer control my curiosity, thinking that there would be no more danger, and I wanted to see why the dead man wore a mask. So he used the Kangxi treasure knife to pick off the mask covering the face of the female corpse, who knew that the corpse had no face, and the face under the mask was dug a big hole, which looked extremely terrifying.

I just looked at it and felt terrible, and then Ding Sitian saw me rubbing behind him, so he turned around to look at me. I hurriedly told her not to look back, but when she finished speaking, she also saw the hole on the face of the female corpse and was stunned on the spot.

My heart suddenly moved, this faceless female corpse may be very strange, but it was too late to look at it again, the raging tongue of fire had swallowed the body of the witch, in fact, it was a corpse, but it was only a human skin shell, and it was burned to ashes in the blink of an eye, only the metal mask glowed with a strange golden red brilliance in the fire.

Unexpectedly, the fire spread, burned so violently, and the smoke in the underground passage surged, the fat man and I grabbed the frightened Ding Sitian, and the three of them smoked and broke through the fire to leave, until they returned to the door of the ground building, and then stopped and discussed what to do next.

I covered the wound and said to the fat man and the others: "Under the Huangpizi Temple in the northeast, there are two weasels clothed in human skin, and the hollowed out body of the dead man is like a coffin with human skin. I just saw that the witch's body was also empty, and behind the mask it might have been a place for the old yellow skin, and it hid in the human skin and pretended to be a ghost and deceive people, and the so-called witch might be like that. It seems that the Huangpizi Tomb in Tuanshanzi in the Great Xing'an Mountains is almost a replica of this Hundred Eyes Cave, but the scale and shape are much smaller. ”

In the folklore of the Northeast, there are caves on the mountain where stone beasts rise, and in the depths of it is the gateway to the underworld. It is the world of the dead, and the cities and pavilions in it are no different from the world, but the world of the dead, not the living. ”

If there are ghosts in the world, my attitude has been a little vague recently, because some things are really difficult to understand, but when it comes to the palaces and palaces of the underworld, I absolutely refuse to believe it, hearing the fat man say this, I scolded: "Nonsense, broad daylight, the sky is clear, how can there be any door to the underworld." The so-called ghost yamen is just a large tomb with a group burial, and there are many dead people buried in it, so it is more and more evil, and it is said to be a netherworld where the undead gather. ”

Ding Sitian said: "When I was a child, I heard my grandmother tell many stories in the water and land maps, there were many tortures in the underworld, and the deepest impression was that there was a little daughter-in-law, who was stuffed into the grinding eyes of the stone mill by the little ghosts, and crushed into flesh and blood foam, there was a black dog licking the blood at the edge of the grinding, and the minced meat that was not licked was dripping into a tile pot, and in the next life, it will become maggots and mosquitoes and flies for the world to beat, and the upper body of the little daughter-in-law who was half ground is still alive. I heard my grandmother say that a woman who is not filial to her elders will end up with this kind of fate after death, and it really scared me to goosebumps all over my body. ”

The fat man said: "Si Tian, why are you becoming more and more timid, even if there is really a netherworld in the world, our revolutionary materialists will go there and kill Yama with a hundred thousand banners, and paste big-character posters on him one by one, and fight against the king of Yama." ”

I looked around at the fog, the sky was dark, and it was getting dark again, and it had been two days and one night since we left the ranch, and I didn't know if Chief Ni had sent someone out to look for us. I still have to find a way to find the old sheepskin, otherwise I can't explain it to the people in the pastoral area, so I interrupted the fat man and said, "Okay, okay, you haven't posted enough big-character posters?" I don't think any ghost yamen or what ghost gate is passing, it has nothing to do with us, but now we have to go to the cave in the back mountain, because the old sheepskin has already entered the back mountain, if the ghost yamen is really the entrance to the underworld, the old sheepskin is now afraid that he has stepped into this underworld. ”
