Chapter 8 Encounter the Cold Knife Again
I was surprised to see this sign, although I am not a mouse or a river digger, but the people who do our business are more or less familiar with these things, and they can also know some things.
This "triple life and death" brand, according to legend, is the ancestral heirloom of Wang Xuanling, a feng shui master of the Tang and Song dynasties. The brand has the effect of suppressing resentful spirits, and it is inevitable that they will often deal with resentful spirits in their business. At this time, the sign actually appeared here, and the person carrying the sign was dead, so it can be seen that the resentful spirits in it can't even use this brand.
I couldn't help but shudder when I thought of this, although my previous experience had made me feel that this place was extremely dangerous, but I didn't expect that the danger here was even worse than I thought.
I gritted my teeth to calm myself down, now is not the time to be afraid. I have to find the third master and the big head as soon as possible, the third master was pulled into the ground by the resentful ghost and life and death are unpredictable at the moment, but I was also pulled down, I am still alive at this time, I think the third master is also a blessed person, and he should be in trouble.
Turning to the pile of skeletons, I pondered again. The person wearing the bronze medal must not be Wang Xuanling, the Tang and Song dynasties are thousands of years away, and the degree of decay of these people is only a few hundred years, and they can be vaguely identified from the clothes that are about to rot, like people from the Ming Dynasty.
Since these people are not Wang Xuanling and others, nor are they buried with them, then it is possible that they are the same earth rats as grandpa and third master. After getting this conclusion, I felt a little relieved. If it is true that Wang Xuanling is trapped and died here, then our group of people may never be able to get out again.
But soon after I relaxed, I thought about a question, and I started to get nervous again, how do I get out of here? The people who suppressed the resentful spirit brand like the "Triple Life and Death Heaven" have all died here, can I get out? For the first time, I had doubts about my situation.
But as soon as I thought of Grandpa, Datou and Kong Sanye, I immediately stopped thinking about whether I could get out, because I had to find them.
After resting for a while, the pain in my body was much lessened, and my numb arm gradually regained its strength, so I decided to get out of here quickly. The smell here is so bad that the main thing now is to find someone else first.
I found the backpack that was dropped not far away, took out a flashlight, and looked around, only to find that this was indeed a tomb. However, at the outermost periphery of the cemetery, looking at the jagged tomb bricks, I am afraid that it is not less than a thousand years old, and this tomb should be at least before the Song Dynasty. But now is not the time to recognize the tomb as of that era, so I picked up the bronze plaque on the ground and walked along the tomb path inside.
There was a little water in the cemetery, deep enough to the knees, and shallow to the feet. I endured the pungent musty smell and walked deep with the dim light of the flashlight. The deeper you go, the more you feel scared, and the sense of unknown is the most fundamental source of fear.
After walking for about ten minutes, the front suddenly became dry and the water on the ground was gone, and then I realized that I had walked up a gentle slope, about a meter high and then a flat road. There was no water on the ground, and it was much easier to walk, so I quickened and walked forward.
But before he could take a few steps, he stepped on the air and fell down. At the moment of falling, I desperately tried to grab the edge, and I had heard more than once about the trap in the ancient tomb, and I might not be able to get out if I fell this time. But the edges were so slippery, and my arm was numb from the cold arms, and now I couldn't exert any strength, so it fell.
Just when I thought I would die here, I suddenly found that I had landed. Fortunately, his back hit the ground first, and there was a backpack pad, otherwise he would have been seriously injured if he fell down from a height of three or four meters. But even if there is a backpack padding, when I fall down like this, I still flash to my waist, and I feel a pain in my heart.
Grab a flashlight and take a look around to see where you are. But as soon as the light of the flashlight came out, my scalp was numb, my heartbeat intensified, and there was a "person" standing under the light of the flashlight, and that "person" was actually a cold knife with Zheng Wen and them.
I remember when I was on it, the cold knife came back with a rat possessed by a resentful spirit, and then was bitten to death by the mouse. How could he be here, could it be that he was also possessed by a resentful spirit. The glare of my flashlight hit his face, his eyes were open and he didn't react, and the shocking mark on his neck was clearly visible, and he was still bleeding scarlet.
He stood motionless, his knife still in his hand. If I'm not mistaken, shouldn't that knife be in the hand of Kong Sanye, when the mouse's body pulled Kong Sanye down the crack, I also saw the third master holding this knife in his hand. But now, how could it be back in the hands of the cold knife.
I didn't dare to move for a while, and I was a little scared of the cold knife when I was alive, not to mention the appearance now, which made people even more frightened.
I didn't move, but the cold knife moved, and a strange smile appeared on his pale face, and scarlet blood spurted from his grinning mouth, this smile was too familiar, familiar and frightening. Because the grimace in the hotel and the dead river digger Zhong Ah Si appeared on his face, it was this weird smile.
This weird smile scared me to sit on the ground. It was this frightened sitting on the ground, just dodging the knife cut by the cold knife's hand, and the knife swept past my hair.
This knife is very powerful, and I can hear the whirring sound of the knife, if it weren't for this sitting on the ground, this knife would definitely be able to cut me in two.
Seeing that the cold knife missed, he slashed again from top to bottom. Now he didn't care about the pain in his lower back, so he hurriedly rolled on the ground, dodging the general again, and the knife cut right under the strap of the backpack, sinking deep into the ground. Taking advantage of the cold knife to draw the knife, I hurriedly got up and ran forward desperately in one direction.
I ran in front, and after the cold knife was drawn and chased after it. Before, due to a fall on the waist, now every step is a pain in the heart, the cold knife behind me is getting closer and closer, once caught up by the cold knife, my life must be explained here, so he must not be chased.
I thought so, but I couldn't run. Just when I was exhausted, a large stone gate appeared in front of me, three or four meters high, which looked at least a thousand pounds in weight. There was a gap between the doors that was a man's width and just enough for me to pass sideways.
When I got to the crack in the door, I threw my backpack along the crack in the door, and then I turned sideways and started squeezing through the crack in the door. As soon as I was halfway inside, I saw the cold knife throw the knife directly at me. I hurriedly squeezed in with all my strength, and as soon as I squeezed in, the knife of the cold knife had been fixed on the stone door with the corner of my clothes, making a huge noise, and the stone gate weighing no less than a thousand pounds actually trembled, and the knife had already sunk more than half of the stone door.
Xindao said that it was so dangerous, and hurriedly tore off the corners of his clothes, picked up the backpack on the ground and continued to run forward. Hearing the movement behind me, the cold knife had already drawn the knife on the stone gate, so I didn't have any mind to look at the environment in the stone gate, the flashlight shone on a road, and I ran along the road.
I don't know how long I ran, but there was no movement of the cold knife behind him, and it seemed that he had already thrown him off, and I felt a little more relaxed in my heart. As soon as I relaxed, I began to feel uncomfortable, and I sat on the ground against the wall with my backpack panting.
I didn't have time to check my body when I ran just now, but now when I sit down, I find that my waist hurts even more. And when I squeezed into the stone gate, I had abrasions on my arms and legs. I ninja the pain in my lower back, opened my backpack and took out the medicine and wiped it on the wounds on my arms and legs. I took out another bottle of water and took a sip of it, and then I felt more comfortable.
I didn't expect the cold knife to appear, but thinking about what I've experienced in the past few days, it's not surprising. However, the cold knife will appear, so will Kong Sanye also be around here, after all, after Kong Sanye was pulled down by the body of the mouse, me, Datou, and Datuan all turned around and ran away, only the body of the cold knife stayed there.
In fact, I really hope that Kong Sanye is here, because finding Kong Sanye will make me feel more at ease. After all, Kong Sanye was also a well-known earth mouse back then, and he is more familiar with the situation in the tomb than us.
Now I don't know what happened to Datou and Datuan, whether they will also look for me everywhere, whether they will also encounter the same situation as me. But the cold knife wasn't on their side, and I felt a little lucky. If Kong Sanye encounters a cold knife, then Kong Sanye is afraid that he will be more auspicious.
Just as I was about to close my eyes and rest for a while, I heard footsteps in the graveyard. The sound was even, heavy, and every step seemed to be stepping on my heart, and my heartbeat beat followed the footsteps. And my mind seemed to be lost in the footsteps, and I gradually felt that the footsteps were so beautiful, more beautiful than any sound I had heard before. As I listened, I couldn't help but close my eyes and start enjoying it.
As soon as I closed my eyes, the half of the jade pendant on my chest and the bronze medal on my waist became hot at the same time, and I was instantly awakened by the high temperature, and the footsteps did not stop, thinking about the scene just now made me break out in a cold sweat.
It seemed that I couldn't stay any longer, so I stood up against the wall, put my bag on my back, and walked towards the opposite of the footsteps. To be honest, I don't really have the courage to see what the footsteps are all about.
After walking for about half an hour, what I saw made my scalp start to tingle again. Forcibly picked it up, put it in a backpack, put something there with a different thing, and started walking in that direction again.
After about half an hour, I saw the thing I had just replaced again. The ghost hit the wall, and it was unfortunate that I met it.
