After I was rescued by the fat man, I listened to him tell about his previous experience with Yue'er, and learned that Yue'er was lost again, so I went down to the tunnel with him to look for Yue'er. The two of us were surprised to find a gold mine in the tunnel, but it was important to find Yue'er, so we immediately continued to move forward in the cave without stopping, but we encountered a stone slab road painted with the pattern of the fierce god Xingtian.

I stood in the narrow corridor with a lamp, carefully admiring the ornamentation carved on the stone wall, the ornamental carving technique is very exquisite, not like the almost abstract texture decoration in ancient times, the clear and ingenious carving of the clouds and mountains, a bit of modern decoration techniques. The heart said: Could this slate be cast after the end of the Tang Dynasty?

And the most surprising thing in my heart is that I didn't expect that in my hometown in the northeast where I grew up, there would be a history of worshipping Xingtian. However, in my impression, the old people will tell some ancient myths of Yanhuang Chiyou, but they have never heard of anyone who has extreme worship for the fierce god Xingtian, and even carved his image on the stone slab. He is not like a door god, hanging at the door has the effect of warding off evil spirits, carved on the stone slab, there is no meaning at all, why do people still draw it on the stone slab, but also build it in this treacherous and inexplicable place.

However, since there is a stone-paved walkway, there must be catacombs nearby. Unexpectedly, we lost our way in the old woods, and accidentally stepped into the passage of the catacombs.

After admiring the ornamentation on the slate, I turned around and found the fat man dozing off, and I said, "Why did you fall asleep after a while?" However, he immediately said to himself: No wonder he, the two of us have been in this chaotic ghost place for many days, and we have hardly eaten a good meal, and we have never slept at all. Seeing that the fat man was asleep, I put the vertical lamp on the ground, crept gently close to the fat man and sat down, and then closed my eyes, intending to squint.

The moment I closed my eyes, a terrible cry suddenly came from the depths of the corridor, like the claws of a monster, and it instantly pierced the silence. I opened my eyes in fright, and the fat man next to me had jumped up from the ground, holding a gun in one hand, pulling out the ever-bright lamp on the ground with the other, looking around with the light, and then looking at the depths of the corridor vigilantly.

I looked into the depths of the dark corridor, and I was sure that the voice was coming from this unknown dark world. And to be able to make such a terrible ghost-like cry must not be done by humans.

The fat man's voice was a little tense and asked me, "Lao Zheng, what was the ghost screaming in the voice just now?" ”

I shook my head, and in order to ease the situation, I reluctantly smiled and jokingly said to the fat man: "How could I, an ignorant flat-headed little person, know about the problem that even the wise and martial comrade Qian Guangrong didn't know." Anyway, it was definitely not a human sound. ”

After listening to me, the fat man said to me angrily: "When is this happening, I said fake Sven, can you be serious." Hearing that ghost-like cry, you still have the leisure to laugh and joke, you can't have a snack! ”

I smiled and said to the fat man with a bad expression: "Anyway, the two of us have no choice but to move forward, just to meet the demons and monsters in front of us, and take him in by the way." In case there is a guillotine ahead, I will laugh and be brave and righteous, at most leaving a scar the size of a bowl, and thirty years later I will still be a good man, no big deal. ”

After listening to me, the fat man was not as nervous as he was just now, and said to me teasingly: "Fake Sven, I didn't expect you to be a lot bolder, I underestimated you before." You're right, this is not a battlefield, and there is no need to mobilize all your nerves at all times. Moreover, now that we have guns in our hands, we are not afraid of those demons and ghosts. If they dare to appear without long eyes, Lao Tzu will send them to the West Heaven with one shot, and let them accompany Tang Seng to the West Heaven to learn scriptures. ”

We made up our minds, so we took up our guns and headed towards the depths of the road, and I smiled easily as I walked and said to the fat man: "We both carry the amulet of thousand-year-old peachwood, and ordinary spirits and little ghosts dare not approach us." In case we happen to meet a little ghost who sneaks out of the underworld without opening our eyes, we will help Lord Yama accept them by the way, maybe Lord Yama will think of the good of the two of us, and he will not accept the two of us lightly. Then let's go down to the tomb in the future, aren't we fearless and invincible. ”

We both giggled and continued to move on, joking along the way to drive away the fear in our hearts. The two of us are now worried about Yue'er's comfort and the strange voice, and we wonder in our hearts, what kind of monster is it? to make that sound like it came out of the hell of all evil. In fact, whether Yue'er is in front of us, we both have no bottom in our hearts, this grim and cold question, we can only bury it in our hearts tacitly, and we can't ask lightly.

We walked in the narrow corridor for an unknown amount of time, and finally we were tired and had to stop to rest, and then ate the last bite of food left in the backpack, and the fat man said to me with a stern expression: "If we can't find Yue'er again, we will have to return to the ground again when we still have the strength." Otherwise, we might starve to death here, and I don't want to drink my own urine to quench my thirst, I'd rather die of thirst. ”

I smiled and comforted him and said, "Isn't there still a bottle of sorghum wine?" When you have to drink wine as water, it can also quench your thirst. ”

After hearing this, the fat man immediately happily took out the sorghum wine in his backpack, held it in his hand and looked at it, and then said to me: "Lao Zheng, why don't we take two sips first to warm up our bodies." Anyway, this thing will only get thirstier the more you drink, and there is no way to quench your thirst and drink it as water. It's better to take two sips now to refresh yourself. ”

I snatched the bottle from the fat man's hand, stuffed it back into my backpack, and said to him, "You better control the worms in your stomach first!" How can drinking refresh people, it will only make people more unconscious, what if we are drunk here, how can we find Yue'er at that time. Later, when we get back to the surface, I'll soak you in a vat so you can drink as much as you can at a time. ”

The fat man, who was still staring at the backpack and was reluctant to give up on sorghum wine, heard me mention Yue'er, immediately stood up and put on his backpack, then pulled out the ever-bright lamp plugged in the ground, and walked in front of him with the lamp to guide the way, and the two of us continued to move forward in the narrow and deep corridor. As a result, we had just walked a short distance in the dark corridor when we heard a chaotic noise in front of us, as if a group of people were fighting in front. The fat man and I looked at each other, and immediately ran down the narrow alley.

The long and low corridor made the speed of our running not fast, but we didn't run for a long time before we stepped out of the narrow and dark corridor, and our eyes suddenly became clear.

At the end of the original dark and narrow corridor, there is a short tunnel, the tunnel is very tall and wide, about ten zhang wide and seven or eight stories high, and there are nine patios above the top of the tunnel, and the two walls of the tunnel are also equipped with a one-person high dive.

My previous conjecture was completely correct, there is indeed a burial chamber underneath the strange and treacherous underground, and it is also the tomb of the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Because of the specifications of the tunnels built around the tomb, it is clearly stipulated that there are only seven patios for the prince's tomb, and the specifications of the nine patios can only be the emperor at that time.

The faint moonlight shone through the patio overhead, and the fat man and I clearly saw that at the end of the tunnel in the distance ahead, there were more than a dozen furry monsters that looked like wolves, not wolves, foxes, and foxes, besieging a person, and that person was the Yue'er we were looking for. I saw her flying up and down, flying left and right to dodge the attack of the hairy-faced monsters, seeing that the encirclement of the hairy-faced monsters was shrinking, and Yue'er's situation was becoming more and more dangerous.

Seeing this, the fat man hurriedly picked up the gun and ran forward, and I immediately ran after him, as a result, I didn't run a few steps, the wound on my right shoulder suddenly ached, this time the pain made me unable to grit my teeth anymore, the miserable wail continued to come out of my mouth, saliva from the mouth uncontrollably spilled out, my eyes became dazzling to see the front, my head was swollen as if it was about to burst, my body fell to the ground in pain, the tragic pain made me fall to the ground, keep rolling. I rolled on the ground in excruciating pain, when a fierce gunshot rang out in the distance, and the sound of gunfire rang out in my head, knocking me out like thunder.

When I woke up and became conscious, I found that the pain in my shoulder had disappeared, so I slowly opened my eyes, and vaguely saw Yue'er running back and forth beside me, shouting something at me with a nervous expression. Although I woke up and became conscious, my head was like countless bombers, bombing indiscriminately, bombing my whole head and feeling dizzy, and the sight of my eyes was completely out of focus, I couldn't see the surrounding environment clearly, and my ears couldn't hear the sound.

This feeling of chaos lasted for a long time, and I gradually became able to see my surroundings clearly. I found myself lying in the middle of the tunnel, and I guessed that the fat man dragged me here when I was unconscious. I saw Yue'er in front of me, her clothes were stained with blood, but I couldn't see where she was hurt. And the fat man was a few steps away from me, holding the extinguished lantern in both hands, waving the vertical handle of the lantern, fighting with a dozen hairy-faced monsters. On the ground under his feet, the guns seemed to have been brutally dismembered, and the parts were scattered all over his feet, and the ground at his feet was full of dead bodies of hairy-faced monsters, and the bright red liquid stained the ground around the fat man's feet, which was dazzling and unbearable to look at. Seeing such a tragic situation, I thought: It can be seen how fierce the battle just now was.

I lay on the ground trying to make a sound, but it sounded as bad to my ears as the sound of sawing wood. Yue'er, who was in front of me, heard the noise, turned around and saw that I was awake, and immediately squatted down and asked me, "How are you?" ”

I nodded with all my strength and signaled, "I'm fine." The fat man who was fighting with the hairy-faced monster in front saw that I was awake, and while wrestling with the hairy-faced monster, he fell back to my side and said to me excitedly: "I was scared to death just now, and when I turned around, I found you lying on the ground motionless, I thought you went to report to Lord Yama." ”

At this time, my body already felt a lot lighter, and my body seemed to be gradually recovering. Seeing the fat man and Yue'er's very nervous and worried expressions, he struggled to squeeze out a smile and said to the fat man: "You forgot, the master told us both our fates, saying that our lives were hard and ruthless." If you put a hundred and twenty hearts, Lao Tzu won't just hang up so lightly. ”

Yue'er saw that I had the strength to speak, and immediately said anxiously on the side: "You two still have time to talk nonsense here, so let's quickly find a way to solve the problem in front of you." ”

As soon as Yue'er's words fell, the fat man immediately shouted on the side: "Solve a fart, I can't stand it." Lao Zheng, can you stand up, I think we should withdraw quickly! ”

At this time, I found that the fat man's face was covered with blood, his forehead seemed to be injured, and his leg was also limping, as if he was injured very badly.

I saw that the hair-faced monsters that were desperately blocked by the fat man were slowly approaching us, their fur was stained red with blood, and they looked even more dazzling, tirelessly shouting and approaching us, and they were about to launch another wave of attacks.

Seeing this, I gritted my teeth and sat up with difficulty, and the moon next to me immediately helped me to stand up, and helped me to slowly retreat to the back end of the tunnel.

On the way to retreat, the fat man has been blocking in front of us, picking up the ever-bright lamp in his hand, hindering the advance of the hairy-faced monster group, dodging left and right while retreating, very wolf-bèi, and constantly adding wounds to his body.

And just as our wolf bèi was retreating, the terrible ghost cry that I had heard with the fat man in the corridor sounded again without warning

The sudden and terrible screams echoed in the tunnel, and the three of us couldn't help but tremble, chill with fear, and turn our legs and stomachs.
