The elusive wolf king, like the white-haired wind in the snow, quietly disappeared under the moonlight, when I was in the northeast, I heard the hunters in the village say that the wolf has white hair, that is, it is about to become a sperm, the harsh living environment, so that the wolves are cunning and ferocious to the extreme, wolves have always been unwelcome in Tibet, people chase wolves to fight, dogs chase wolves to bite, survive in the cracks of nature, how tenacious and stoic will and muscles are needed. The wolf must have known the power of the firearm for a long time, and only showed signs if it was determined that the weapon would not pose a threat to it.

I don't know what strategy the wolves will adopt against us, but at this time, the only way to do this is to meet up with the lamas and the big men, relying on the ruined walls of the temple, and try to hold out until dawn, even if the reinforcements do not come, as soon as the morning dawns, the wolves will flee into the mountains.

With a gun in one hand, I kept looking around, alert for wolves that might come at any moment. With the other hand in his hand, the military doctor Gema quickly moved towards the remnants of the temple where the lama and the big man were hiding, Gema held her pistol in her hand, and her dizziness seemed to improve a little, and we bypassed the barren grass where the company commander and the messenger died, and finally returned to the red ruined wall, which was only as high as a man's chest, and I lifted Gema over the wall first, and I followed it.

The Iron Rod Lama, who was tending to the big man who was seriously wounded, saw that I had brought Gema back, so he said, "With the blessing of the auspicious Buddha Empty Walker, the army of Puse has finally rescued Gemalam." After speaking, he raised his eyes and looked at the bright moon in the sky, whether it was the Kagyu school (White Sect), or the Gelug sect (Yellow Sect), or the Yuma sect (Red Sect), they all thought that this kind of temple shrouded by the bright moon should be "empty and quiet". However, the grass is deep in the fog, and it is already a pitch-black hell, and the Demon Moon Dharma God has turned this originally sacred place into a group of demons dancing wildly, who is this punishing?

I anxiously said to the lama, "The wolves are gathering outside, and we don't have many bullets, so we must light a fire to scare them away, otherwise we will all have to let the hungry wolves eat before dawn." ”

The lama sighed: "It's all crazy, and now wolves dare to come into the temple to eat people." Then he led his old horse to the wall, which was startled by the constant howling of wolves from all sides. The wolves in several pastures under Kunlun Mountain may have gathered outside the temple. The lama and his old horse had never heard so many wolves howling together for the moon in their lives, and these hungry wolves who were cornered didn't care which of the Buddha's destined disciples was. At this time, it is useless to chant the scriptures.

The lama took off the dried cow dung and the wood of the fire pith and lit a fire in the remnants of the wall, where we were located, the ruins of an old house in a side hall, surrounded by different damaged walls on all sides, one of which was relatively high, and the wall was pressed down by the inverted girders. On the other side is the stone tablet of the hidden path of the town temple, which is engraved with the "Great Treasure Dharma King's Decree", the huge broken stone tablet is not less than five meters high, it is difficult for wolves to come from both sides, but it is also necessary to prevent them from jumping in from a high place by taking a wolf ladder.

Gema first looked at the big man's injuries, and from her look, the big man was more than lucky this time, so I picked up a few pieces of dry wood from the ruins, put them in the fire, and made the flames burn stronger, and then took the big man's semi-automatic rifle, handed it to Gema, and guarded the two low walls with her.

Suddenly, the wolf's howl weakened, I peeked outside the wall, more and more wolves descended from the ridge to the vicinity of the broken temple, only to see that between the barren grass and broken walls, there were several wolf shadows jumping, they obviously saw the fire in the wall, before the wolf king ordered, they did not dare to move, just around the broken temple.

I saw a pair of wolf eyes like small green lights about forty meters away, I immediately raised my rifle, three points in a line, aimed at the middle of the two green lights, and pulled the board machine, with a gunshot in the quiet night, the two green lights went out at the same time, although it was impossible to confirm whether it hit the target, but this shot played a role in knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger, the wolves in the wasteland, what they were most afraid of in these days, was the shooting sound of the five or six semi-automatic rifles, they were all frightened, for them, This semi-automatic rifle was an artifact that could shatter their souls and self-confidence, and the rest of the wolves no longer dared to linger in the vicinity, and they all disappeared into the darkness, but the low wolf howl indicated that they were only temporarily retreating, and would not stop there.

When I saw the wolves retreating, I also relaxed my tense nerves, and remembered what I had just encountered on the way to the ancient tomb behind the temple, and I felt very strange, the stone man who was half submerged in the earth, his whole body was full of rotten green flesh, so I casually asked the old lama, did the things that had happened to the disappearance of people and animals in the past have anything to do with it?

Unexpectedly, the lama has never heard of this temple, there is a smelly and rotten stone statue, the lama asked me to tell him in detail, I thought to myself that you asked me, but let me ask who again, I thought that the lama knew the situation in this broken temple very well, it turned out to be an ordinary bad old man, so while looking at the movement of the wolves outside the temple, while telling the lama what had just happened.

After hearing this, the lama recited the six-character mantra several times, and exclaimed: "In the past, it was only the ghost of the ghost mother and demon concubine in the ancient tomb, and the temple was built, and the golden steel statue of Dashengde was built, and the guò pagoda and white snail were used to suppress the evil spirits, but for so many years, the Buddhas of the past dynasties were helpless, but they did not expect that it was the stone statue in front of the tomb to do evil. ”

I didn't understand: "Lama Ak, what do you just mean?" How can a stone become a fine? It's a pity that there was no grenade around just now, otherwise I would have served it to the sky. ”

The lama said: "You Han people call this mountain Kunlun Pass, but in the Buddhist scriptures, it is called Rubai Jiaka, which means the eight-petal CPSU carried by the turtle dragon, the sky is like the eight-blessed wheel, the earth is like the eight-petal lotus, the location of this temple is just in the stamen of the lotus, the east of the Chema Mountain, the image of the Rakshasa woman's pubic part, the terrain in the south is like a demon scorpion to catch food, the rock of the West is like a water demon looking, the ghost lake in the north before it dries up, like a broken dragon mirror, originally built a temple on such a special terrain, deterring the demons of the Quartet, it can be full of merit. ”

However, due to the drying up of the lake, it became a place of fierce spirits, and the dry lake gave birth to demon scorpion fish that devoured people and animals, and the sky of Lang Ega became narrow, and it turned out that the "Budo" (the name of the demon in the water contained in the Buddhist scriptures) grew on the body of the ancient tomb stone statue, drowning people in the river, and taking their qi and blood.

I listened to what the lama said, it seems to be the tantric feng shui theory, and the half of the book I read, very different, maybe the purpose is consistent, but there are too many differences in the way of expression, at that time I was not deeply involved in the secret art of feng shui, too complex feng shui shape shì did not understand at all, so I didn't understand what he said, only heard him mention what "many departments", this word seems to have been heard not long ago, and then I thought of the time when I just went to the unfrozen spring with the advance team, I heard the transport soldiers talk about it, in Qinghai Lake, There is a kind of water monster that swallows people, some people have seen it say that it looks like a log, some people say that it looks like a big fish, the only thing that is the same is the smell of green, there are soldiers in the Tibetan area to tell us, that is all "many parts", the devil in the water, attached to what object, the switch is like anything, if it is caught, it must be smashed and burned, otherwise it has grown for a long time, except for the Buddha's Dapeng bird, there is nothing that can control it, at that time, just finished speaking, was heard by the company commander and severely criticized.

There are too many taboos and legends in Tibet, I can't know the details, and I secretly think in my heart that no matter what it is, I will find a way to burn it after dawn, and I must avenge my comrades-in-arms.

The lama said: "On the edge of this ghost lake, there are countless dead people and livestock, and the part on the stone statue is difficult for ordinary people to deal with, so we must ask the Buddha to open the light for the big salt, let the Dharma protector who has practiced for the fourth life carry the salt pot on his back, first bury the rotten stone man with salt, and then dig it out and smash it and burn it after three days, which is the safest way." ”

We were discussing in a low voice, and suddenly a thick cloud floated in the sky, obscuring the bright moon and the outside of the temple, which could not be illuminated by the fire, immediately turned into darkness, and the three of us and Gema and the lama immediately became nervous, and we knew in our hearts, and the wolves must also know that this was the best time to attack, and they would definitely pounce on them at any cost.

I only heard a terrible wolf howl from the heights, the howl was sad and desolate, and the resentment was unspeakable, it was the voice of the white-haired wolf king, it finally gave the signal to attack, the dark wind fluttered around, flashing countless small green lamps, I hurriedly grabbed a few wooden sticks and threw them out of the wall, so that the illuminated target could be shot.

This situation is a big test of the physical and psychological elements, only bite one by one, you must not be distracted by the many hungry wolves jumping around, but at the same time you have to withstand the fear of being gradually compressed and surrounded, plus the dark clouds cover the moon, the visibility is too low, I didn't hit the target with five shots in a row, and when I was sweating, a giant wolf jumped down from the huge monument of the "Great Treasure Dharma King's Holy Decree", and did not hesitate to the fire below, and pounced on the old horse hiding under the wall from mid-air, and the tooth knife in the wolf's mouth was all erected, I was about to bite the horse's neck.

The lama swung the iron rod and struck it, and the heavy iron rod just hit the wolf's mouth, and broke three or four of the hardest wolf teeth, and the wolf was beaten and rolled on the ground, and fell into the fire, and was immediately caught in flames, and then the horse was frightened, and neighed and struck me, and I hurriedly bowed my head, and the horse jumped out of the low wall behind me, and was immediately pounced on by several huge wolves rushing from outside the wall, and dragged behind the grass.

Another black-maned thin wolf jumped into the defensive circle, pounced on the big man who was seriously injured and unconscious, Gema raised his rifle and killed the black wolf, and at the same time two more wolves jumped in, I wanted to shoot to support her, but found that the magazine was empty, so I had to stand up and poke the bayonet, Gemma's gun was also out of bullets, threw away the rifle and pulled out the pistol to shoot, the lama also recited the six-character mantra, picked up the iron rod and smashed it at the hungry wolf who kept jumping into the wall, for a time shouting, wolf howling, gunshots, broken bones and broken tendons The sound of man-wolf fighting, in the broken walls of the temple, Mixed up.

The three of them originally rescued and supported each other, but in this chaotic and dangerous situation, soon formed a situation of fighting for themselves, the lama's weapon played an unprecedented role, this iron rod looked like this is cumbersome and old, but the wheel will get up, aimed at the wolf's head and smash a quasi, it is strange to say, those wolves seem to be frightened when they see this iron rod, and those who can dodge are often a step slower, and their skulls are shattered, and the lama blocks the stone wall alone, and the Gema military doctor retreats to the side of the big man and shoots the hungry wolf that jumps to the front with a pistol.

I stabbed with my rifle, and when I saw that Gema's pistol was running out of bullets and was reloading, I stabbed a bayonet into the ribs of a big wolf that pounced on her, and the bayonet was like a three-edged armor cone with a blood groove in stone, and poked the wolf to the corner of the wall, so painful that it couldn't even scream, and then another hungry wolf with a long scar on his face came in from outside the wall, opened two rows of toothed knives, and pounced on me.

I wanted to pull out the spear and stab it in the air, but just now I used too much force, and the bayonet was inserted into the half-dead wolf's body, and I took a step out for a while, I have never participated in the wolf fighting campaign, and I have only seen a lone wolf in the northeast, and I am not familiar with the wolf nature.

The situation was urgent, so I had to let go of the rifle and pounce on the spot, dodging the scarface wolf, but it was still a little slower, the sheep's sheared fur military hat was pounced by the wolf, the wolf's claws hung a hole in my ear, and the blood that flowed out immediately froze into ice slag, and the scarface wolf who jumped over his head did not stop, abandoned me, and pounced directly on the opposite lama, the lama's iron rod swept, hit its shoulder blade, whined and rolled aside, the wolf that fell into the fire first had been burned to charcoal, and the air was filled with the stench of banana paste.

These wolves are the most ferocious core members of the wolf pack, and the rest of the more vicious wolves are still hovering outside the temple walls, although the wolf king has given the order, they are probably still frightened by the fierce rifle fire just now, and they dare not swarm until they come to their senses. Otherwise, hundreds of hungry wolves will pounce at the same time, and even if we have three heads and six arms, it will be difficult for us to resist.

I was lying on the ground and was about to get up, when suddenly my back sank and a giant wolf trampled on me. The wolf's paws were on my shoulder, although I couldn't see behind me, but by feeling, this surprisingly big giant wolf, Bacheng was the one-eyed white-haired wolf king, this white wolf that had almost become a fine spirit, and only after the sound of the guns had sparsely subsided, it jumped in, and its grasp of the timing was so accurate that it was terrifying to think.

I kept reminding myself that don't look back, once I turn back, I will be bitten by the wolf king, then it will inevitably end up like the dog's Xu officer, the giant wolf behind me, is patiently waiting for me to turn back, drinking the blood of the living in one gulp, it is the most wonderful taste in the world.

My head was buzzing, my face was pressed against the cold ground, I didn't dare to make the slightest movement, my heart wanted to resist, but my hands were empty, and I didn't have any weapons, in this case. My iron fist of the proletariat does not do much.

The large black clouds that covered the moonlight were blown away by the air currents in the sky, and the bright moonlight sprinkled down like mercury, illuminating the barren smoke and artemisia grass in a silvery white.

The lama over there is also in a difficult situation, after all, he is old and decrepit, the heavy iron rod swings more and more slowly, the rod body is finally bitten by an experienced hungry wolf, and he has never been able to get rid of it, the lama is fighting with the wolf for the iron rod, in the moonlight, I saw that I was pressed to the ground by a giant wolf, I wanted to come to the rescue but I couldn't get out, I raised my leg and kicked a bag of things in front of me: "Puse army, quickly use your Han people's five lightning demon sticks!" ”

That bag of things almost hit my shoulder, and I wondered in my heart, what is our Han people's five lightning strike demon sticks? But then I touched it with my hand, and I already understood that this was the bullet belt of the big man, and at that time we were each given two grenades, and the two of mine were thrown into the pond to blow up the stinky mud, but the big man's one was never used, and after he was injured, the lama helped him to relieve it, and if it wasn't for the lama's reminder, he really forgot about it.

I immediately took out a grenade from it, but the wolf held down the shoulder, unable to make much movement, otherwise a broken ingot, will be sucked by the wolf's kiss, in a hurry, the bullet belt blocked the side of the face, turned around sharply, only to see that there seemed to be a white-haired hungry ghost behind him, sure enough, it was the wolf king, the white shadow in front of him flickered, it had bitten the bullet belt.

At this time, I also opened the fuse, and the grenade immediately emitted white smoke, and I wanted to throw it back, as long as the grenade exploded, it was enough to scare these hungry wolves away, and the wolf king bit the canvas bullet bag, and was angry with himself, when he suddenly saw the white smoke grenade, and the ominous snort, raised the wolf's claws, and swept the grenade in my hand aside.

The grenade didn't roll out far, I cursed in my heart, this white-eyed wolf is really good, I think although it doesn't know what the grenade is for, but with its experience of surviving in a harsh environment, it has already sensed the danger of this thing, the farther away from this ominous short stick, the better, although it uses the wolf's claws to pull away the grenade, but the distance is still too close, once it explodes, the consequences are unimaginable, and the lethality of the fragments will affect both the people and the wolves in the wall.

I was still pressed by the wolf king, at this time I wanted to give up my body to pounce on the grenade, but it was difficult to do, thinking that everyone was injured, and the subsequent wolves rushed up and tore the scene of eating the four people, my whole body seemed to fall close to the ice cellar, and the time passed second by second, and it was estimated that the outbreak would be within these two seconds.

At the last moment when the nerves were about to collapse, the hungry wolf that bit the lama's iron rod finally snatched the iron rod from the wolf's mouth, but it was too strong and couldn't hold its feet, and retreated to the grenade that was about to explode.

Three or four hungry wolves in the wall, including the wolf king, were stunned, and then jumped out of the wall, disappearing into the night without looking back, the old and weak wolves outside were originally frightened by the gunshots, and heard the explosion, especially the smell of gunpowder after the grenade explosion in the air, which made them even more frightened, and immediately scattered and put aside, the fierce wolves in this wolf pack died more than a dozen, and it was difficult to become a climate in a short time.

I rolled over, not caring to see what wounds I had, so I picked up the rifle that Gema had dropped on the ground, and stabbed to death the wounded wolves in the wall with a bayonet, and then sat down on the ground. It's like losing our souls, and we can't slow down for a long time, and if the wolves kill them back, even if they are all old and weak hungry wolves, we will be glorious.

When I was wheezing, I suddenly heard the lama shouting that it was not good, I hurriedly beat my spirit and got up, it turned out that Gema fell in a pool of blood, just now my eyes were blue, at this time I came back to my senses, and quickly started with the old lama, and helped the Gema military doctor up, and when I saw the injury, the lama and I were dumbfounded, and the intestines were pulled out by the wolf. The green whirring hung on the outside of the military uniform, and the top was frozen.

I was so anxious that I burst into tears, and I couldn't speak. Fortunately, the lama had studied medicine in the temple and did emergency treatment for Gema, and when he explored Gema's breathing, although he was like a gossamer, he was still alive after all.

I looked at the big man again, and although his injuries were serious, he had not lost blood, and he was in good shape, so he was fine. I asked the lama, "Can the Ga Red Army doctor last until dawn?" "Now that the horses are dead, in this barren mountain and wilderness, it is impossible for me and the lama alone to take out the two seriously wounded men under any circumstances, so we have to wait for the reinforcements to arrive as soon as possible. Fortunately, the wolves have fled deep into the mountains.

The jade rabbit in the night sky has been tilted, and the lama looked at the bright moon that was half blocked by the mountain peak: "The sky is about to dawn, as long as the temperature of the body of the army is maintained for two days, there should be salvation, although the Puse army can rest assured, I will chant the scriptures and ask the Buddha for protection." ”

I wiped my nose and tears from the frozen mess, and expressed my doubts about the way in which the prayers could save the lives of the wounded, and the lama said, "You just have to keep an eye on the fire, the more it burns, the better, the light of the fire will attract the auspicious empty mother, I will make a great wish, if the Buddha opens his eyes and makes the wounded safe, I will go to the lake for the rest of my life to turn to the lake, until my life is finally liberated." (Lathoram, the name of the place, the holy lake that blesses the recovery of the sick, means the lake of fairies hanging in the sky)

When I saw that the lama said solemnly, I couldn't help but be grateful, so I covered the big man and Gema with all the clothes that could be covered, and made a fire under the leeward wall, and smeared the lama's secret medicine on my wounds, and the clouds in the east gradually turned dark red, and the dawn had appeared.

At about 10 o'clock in the morning of the same day, we were found by the brother company who rushed to meet us, and the troops blocked the Kunlun Mountain Pass, and Gema and I, and the big man were all urgently evacuated. Do you want to find the Buddha to bury it with a big salt and then burn it, as he said before?

The lama nodded yes, and said that he was about to go to the lake to pray for the wounded, but he would go back first to tell the Buddha about it, and may the army be auspicious, and the Buddha would bless you with peace and happiness.

I said to the fat man and Shinley Yang: "Then I went with the army into the depths of the Kunlun Mountains to work, my comrade-in-arms is still alive now, but he has become a crippled soldier, but the Gema military doctor has never woken up, he has become a vegetative person, I will visit them when I have time, the remains of the ruined temple and the ancient tomb are still preserved to this day, I think back now, the rest is irrelevant, the key is the corpse in the ancient tomb, the special clothes and expressions worn, The local Tibetans say that it is the tomb of the ghost mother of the ancient demon country, but this is only based on legends, the ghost mother can be reincarnated, there should be more than one, the historical record of the demon country only exists in the long poem recited orally, and no one really saw what clothes the ghost mother and demon concubine were wearing. ”

Shinley Yang listened to my story and said to me: "The city depicted in the mural is enshrined with a huge eyeball totem, and the characters in it are the same as the corpses in the ancient tomb under the Phoenix Temple, maybe that city is the altar of the Demon Kingdom, I don't know what unknown connection there is between the Demon Kingdom and the bottomless ghost cave." ”

It seems that after returning to Beijing, I will be busy again, first of all, I will cut open the head of the king to see if the dust beads inside are real, and I will also try to find the first half of the sixteen-character yin and yang feng shui secret technique, so that I can decipher the information about the dust beads in the keel, and finally we must collect some information about the mysterious dynasty of the demon kingdom, because once the sixteen characters cannot be pieced together, the dragon bone book will not be able to decipher, and the information about the dust beads may all fall on this, and then the two-pronged approach will be carried out. It depends on which link can make a breakthrough, I don't know if the iron-roded lama is still alive, maybe go to the shore of the fairy lake "Latsoram" hanging in the sky to find him to catch up with the past, more or less we can learn some things we want to know.
