The Tomb of the Yellow Skin Chapter 25 The Ghost Lingers
This duck row hunting gun is an old antique, dumb fire from time to time, this time it should also be Ding Sitian's life, the gunfire saved her life, although the old sheepskin was worried that the musket hit Ding Sitian, and raised the muzzle a lot when he shot, and this hunting gun has long lost any lethality, but the sound of spitting smoke and spitting fire is amazing, the brocade scale oyster that strangled Ding Sitian was shocked by the hunting gun, let go of Ding Sitian and retreated, but it panicked and did not know the direction, and crashed into the crematorium opened by the furnace door, I just rushed to the front and pressed the furnace door with my back, homeopathic pulled the iron bolt.
The rest of the four of them were in a catastrophe, panting and no one could speak, as soon as I stopped, I felt cold all over, and then I noticed that the clothes were almost soaked through the sweat, and I didn't know if it was the cold sweat that came out of the shock, and the hot sweat flowing in the fight, stopped for a while, I and the fat man and Ding Sitian were shocked for a while, the violent heartbeat and heavy breathing finally slowed down, only the old sheepskin held a torch in one hand, and a hunting gun in the other, grinning motionlessly, that expression seemed to even stand up with a beard.
The fat man went over to pull Ding Sitian up first, and then he was relieved to see that she was not injured, and then he patted the old sheepskin on the shoulder: "Okay, old man, you are worthy of being a poor middle peasant." The old sheepskin was slapped by him, and he sat on the ground with a blank face, as if he didn't believe that he had saved Ding Sitian just now.
The brocade scale oyster that was put into the crematorium again hit several times, but the furnace door was half a meter thick, and no matter how strong it was, it couldn't rush out, but I still didn't dare to slack off, and the iron bolt that held the furnace door tightly did not let go, because I clearly remembered that just now when the torch was completely extinguished and there was no light, someone opened the furnace door, and it was the fifth person besides me, Ding Sitian, the fat man, and the old sheepskin, it was this hidden guy who released the brocade scale oyster, if there was such a time, we might not be as lucky as just now. It seems that there must be something hiding in this building, and he deliberately doesn't want the searchers to get out alive. If we don't find this guy as we can, we'll have no chance of life.
I knew that there must be something hidden in the crematorium, and if we didn't find it, we would have more trouble, so I put my back on the door of the crematorium and swept the underground crematorium with my eyes, but the torches in the hands of Ding Sitian and others were not bright enough, and the far end of the basement and all corners were still dark. The more I couldn't see what was in the dark, the more uneasy I felt in my heart, at that time there was no such thing as claustrophobia in the closed room, but the four of us really stayed in this cement coffin enough, especially there are some inexplicable strange phenomena in this building, and after thinking about it carefully, I feel hairy in my heart.
The fat man came up with an idea and said, "You are blocking the door of the furnace at the bottom, and I will go up to the second floor and throw the torch into the crematorium, and burn the brocade oyster that the son of a bitch raises lest it come out again to play hooligans." ”
I nodded in agreement, I didn't do it, I couldn't climb out of the flue without burning it, but Ding Sitian stopped us and said: "Don't burn, the fire in this furnace is big, and there are no ashes left after burning, and there are two treasures on the brocade scale oyster." One is the ruyi hook on the tailbone, and the other is the water beads on the skull, I heard that they are all precious medicinal materials that can bring the dead back to life, our cattle and horses are afraid that they will not be able to get back, and the loss is irreparable, but if these two things can be brought back, maybe they can be exempted from accountability. ”
The fat man and I both doubt that the oyster bone such as the Ruyi hook is really so valuable, but it is better than going back empty-handed, as for how to catch the oyster, Ding Sitian once heard his father say that the brocade scale oyster likes to haunt the tree, the top of the tower and other extremely high places, there must be "Guanyin vine" nearby, only with the Guanyin vine can it be killed, I don't know if there is this plant near the left side of this building, if you can't find it, try to leave here first, and then bring more people back to capture it.
In a blink of an eye, I decided that this matter was absolutely impossible, and said to Ding Sitian: "No, when the interruption continues, there will be trouble, we must burn it to death now, this thing comes and goes like the wind, people can't stop it, if we let it out of the crematorium again, we should really go to see Marx, and how can there be any other exits in this building except for the flue?" "In fact, there is the most important point, this is a haunted ghost building, and through a series of events experienced by guò tonight, it can be seen that the unjust soul in the building definitely wants to put us to death, from the air quality in the basement, the iron gate at the exit of the crematorium, not necessarily always closed, maybe the same is after we enter the building before it is closed, now there are a few torches to light it is good to say, once the things that can be burned are burned out, the undead in the building will open the crematorium again, That's a knife on the grave, and it's going to scare people to death.
I really don't want to tell Ding Sitian and the others directly about this concern, because the mental pressure of everyone is almost to the limit at the moment, but even if I don't say it, the rest of the people can also think of the benefits at this time, so I dismissed the plan to kill the oyster and take the wishful hook.
I asked the fat man to take the torch to the second floor, and asked Ding Sitian to follow to make a connection, and immediately went back to the basement to meet us after lighting the fire, and the fat man found the Kangxi treasure knife that fell on the ground and stuck it on the belt, and walked towards the staircase with the torch.
Ding Sitian also followed, but as soon as the two of them raised their feet, when they passed in front of me, Ding Sitian's face suddenly changed color, stretched out two hands, and dragged me and the fat man away from the crematorium. But in a blink of an eye, it was already clear to this sudden situation, it turned out that in the gap of the crematorium door, a dense yellow fog was emerging, and the brocade scale oyster could vomit poison at two o'clock in the meridian, which may be just the middle of the night, this poisonous miasma was fierce and thick, condensed in the basement with air circulation, and the hearth was not far from the staircase, and it was covered by poisonous smoke in an instant.
I saw that the yellow fog was so thick that it seemed that it couldn't be dissolved, and I suddenly remembered that I had just changed my clothes in this crematorium, and the cremator's clothes were all protective suits with trousers, and there was a simple filter mask on the hat, which could prevent choking on the stench of soot corpses, because clothes were very important assets at that time, and they would not give up until they had to, so the fat man and the others did not change their clothes, and there were only two sets of protective clothing hanging in the corner of the basement, and the other set hanging at the staircase had been covered by poisonous gas.
I thought to myself that so far only I put on a filter mask to break through the poisonous fog and set fire to the second floor, but when I touched my clothes, my heart was half cold, and it turned out that the melee with the brocade scale oyster was very fierce. The filter mask hanging from the protective suit has long since fallen off and is long gone
Seeing that the exit was blocked by the poisonous mist, I knew that the general trend had gone, and the other three people each covered their mouths and noses with their hands, and quickly retreated to the far end of the incineration room, which was undoubtedly to drink pigeons to quench their thirst, and the farther away from the staircase.
There is no ventilation in the basement. Although most of the mist formed by the oyster poison dispersed from the corpse furnace, most of it condensed near the furnace door, and the speed of spreading to the depths of the incineration room gradually slowed down, but the poisonous mist was still gradually approaching us.
In the oppressive basement, there is no way to go to the sky, there is no door to enter the ground, and there is less and less oxygen in the indoor ground. The flames of the torches became more dim, and the four of them had no choice but to keep retreating to the corner, the fat man suddenly remembered something, and said to Ding Sitian recklessly: "I said Sitian, before we go to see Marx, I still haven't had time to ask you, you see me and Lao Hu, who is likely to further sublimate the pure revolutionary friendship with you?" ”
Ding Sitian was behind us, I couldn't see her expression clearly in the dark, I don't know if she was scared or blushing when she was asked about it in this desperate situation, thinking that she was about to die in this gloomy crematorium, I also looked forward to listening to Ding Sitian's heart before dying, but Ding Sitian said to us: "I............ Water ............, look at the sewage flowing out of the pipes! ”
Her voice was astonished and delighted, as if she had seen a glimmer of light in the darkness, and the old sheepskin carried a torch to the place where she had spoken, and it turned out that we had unconsciously retreated to the corner where the pipes were laid. The water pipe that was cracked by the brocade oyster flowed out a lot of sewage, and it was already exhausted at this time. There is still a lot of black water on the ground, there are more than a dozen small whirlpools in the water, and the water in the room has seeped down from here, because the drainage hole has not been dredged for many years, the sewage seeps very slowly, if it is not for the rupture of the water pipe, it is difficult to detect that it is stored on the ground.
We saw a ditch, it was like grabbing a life-saving straw, the fat man reached out and touched it in the sewage, and said happily: "It doesn't look like a floor drain, it's a iron cover, I'll see if I can open it............
I saw that the oyster poison was approaching, and I couldn't delay for a moment, so I urged the fat man to hurry up, and the fat man picked out the sludge on the drainage holes of the iron cover, stretched out his fingers and dragged it up, he fought with both arms, and pulled it up a few times, and the iron cover did not move at all as if it had roots.
The dim yellow oyster poison is like smoke, and the position we are in will be shrouded in poisonous fog in a few moments, and now we have begun to feel that it is difficult to breathe, and the blood in my chest is tumbling and I want to open my mouth to vomit, and I see that there is a sewer, but I can't escape no matter what, so anxious that everyone stomps their feet again and again, I have an idea, and I remember that this building is strangely built, and all the portals are either sealed or opened outward, all of which are the same as the lid of the corpse furnace, could it be that this sewer is the same?
Ding Entian also thought of a place with me, her fingers were slender and could reach into the drainage hole, so she hurriedly squatted down to reach out and grope, and sure enough, through the guò drainage hole, there was a horizontal pin bolt inserted on the inside, although it was rusty, but it was still a little loose, she didn't care about the pain of her fingers being rubbed off the flesh, and pulled it several times, and finally pulled off the iron bolt, and the drainage iron cover on both sides suddenly fell.
Under the drainage cover is a very deep drainage ditch, are connected by a large cement pipe, where do we still tube the inside is damp and smelly, immediately fish into it, the height of the drainage ditch is nearly a little more than two meters, I jumped down the last one, splashed a stinky water, want to close the open drainage cover, but just in the chaos, the iron bolt that was pulled down has been thrown by Ding Entian where, I am not very willing, but under the urging of the old sheepskin and others, I have to do it.
There is not too much sewage in the underground waterway, but the bottom of the cement pipeline is a layer of black and foul-smelling sludge, which is extremely muddy, and there are many tide insects in it that are frightened by people, crawling back and forth quickly, although the environment is bad, but after all, there is still water movement, there is no deadly biogas, but it is easy to slip by the mud, and the two ends of the waterway can not see the head, and it is impossible to distinguish the direction, it is said that the water source is scarce near the desert north, why the cement pipe that has been abandoned for many years is still draining, which is really incomprehensible. I had to stop thinking about it, and now I can only take one step at a time.
I pointed to the water and said to everyone: "I see that all roads lead to Beijing, let's just pick it up and walk, anyway, I finally came out of that building, even if I was smoked to death in the sewer, I will never go back to that hell place." “
Although there is no absolute isolation measure between the sewer and the crematorium, but the oyster poison has its limit after all, as long as the depth of the space is large enough, there is no need to worry about poisoning, in the narrow cement pipeline, the four of them walked along the way, although the future is slim and unknown, but after all, there is no distance from the crematorium full of resentment, the pressure in my heart has been somewhat reduced, I and the fat man, the old sheepskin couldn't stop praising Ding Sitian, if it weren't for her brave expression just now, everyone would have been poisoned, The way to die is that of a Jew who died in the Nazi gas chambers, but there was no one to collect the body, which was really miserable.
Ding Sitian said: "I admire the Soviet Union Hero of the Present generation Ostovsky the most, and I just hope that as he said, when a person looks back on the past, he will not feel regret for wasting his time, nor will he be ashamed of doing nothing." ”
I learned to recite on the radio and joked to Ding Sitian: "When I look back, I don't feel regret for not crawling out of the chimney of the crematorium, nor do I feel useless because I got through the stinking sewer." Then Zhengse said to everyone: "We are uncertain, I don't know what will happen ahead, everyone has to cheer up, this long march has just completed the first step............
The fat man sighed after my words: "The road ahead will be longer............ Ding Sitian said: "That's why we have to save and make a revolution, it's too wasteful to light two torches, just use one, okay?" ”
After Ding Sitian finished speaking, he extinguished the torches in his hand, and there were only a dozen or so simple torches tied in total, and now there are only four or five left, and the burning time of each one is very limited, and it may not be able to burn for half an hour, but I don't know if it can last until I crawl out of the gutter.
