Chapter 39: The Snake's Nest



At this moment, the yellow sand has forced me and the fat man to accommodate, and in less than three minutes, the two of us will have to finish playing, maybe it will be discovered by archaeologists in the future, and then put it in the exhibition hall, and the sign reads: Desert Tufuzi Specimen.

The fat man was not as discouraged as I was, as soon as he heard that there was a door, he kicked me hard, and saw that I was sitting next to me motionless, so he kicked and scolded: "Innocent, what about your mother's baby, you have to move." I saw the fat man kicking his head sweating profusely, and when I thought about the life and death of so many years, I suddenly felt a little unwilling to admit defeat, so I bowed over and kicked the floor with the fat man.

I didn't think about it, I just kicked my feet, only to hear a bang, the stone under my feet actually cracked, the fat man and I stepped on the air, and the two screamed and planted.

It was only a moment before he hit the ground.

I landed on the ground with my back first, and before I could howl, the sand above smashed into my face along the broken hole, and I didn't care about the pain in my back, so I quickly closed my eyes and mouth, supported my hands and stepped back, shook my head violently, and wiped the sand all over my face.

When I opened my eyes, it was still dark around me, and I could only hear the sound of the sand flowing, and I didn't know where the lighter had gone. ”

The fat man said, "Here, look for a lighter." Then I heard a rustling sound, about the fat man touching the lighter on the ground, and I was blind, and my hands were touching the ground.

The ground is very flat, it seems to be paved with stone slabs, in the ancient Western Regions, the tunnel paved with stone slabs is very rich, I can't help but feel strange, what kind of place is this? Could it be true that my speculation is true, that Yabda is really underground?

After touching it for a long time, the fat man said happily: "Hey, I found it." Immediately, the fat man lit the lighter, and a faint dim yellow halo suddenly spread, and we immediately followed the fire to observe the surroundings.

It is a basement, and the ground is indeed paved with unknown stone, and the top is loess, which seems to be mixed with broken stones, which is probably also a means of artificial reinforcement.

There is no road on my right, directly on the loess layer, and on the left-hand side is a passage, which stretches somewhere, about two meters from the hole where we fell, not very high, but people can stand in it.

At this moment, at the entrance of the cave overhead, there is yellow sand pouring down, due to the destruction of me and the fat man, this underground space will eventually be swallowed by the yellow sand, but fortunately, the space here is large, and there is no danger for a while.

I was about to beckon the fat man to get up, only to find the fat man's eyes staring at the lighter.

I was about to ask him if he was distracted, but when I looked at the lighter in his hand, I suddenly felt a thrill, this is not the one we lost.

The fat man's lighter was lost when he sank into the sand, and he used my two-dollar plastic lighter to smoke along the way, but what the fat man was burning at the moment was a square iron sheet lighter, which was also carved with patterns and had a cover, which belonged to a professional waterproof lighter that could burn for a long time, and was generally prepared by people who camped in the wild.

Who left this lighter here? Who else has been here and where did he come in?

At this time, I found my plastic lighter in the corner, picked it up and hit it twice, it was about blocked by the sand, the oil was full, but there was no fire, it seemed to be scrapped, and I didn't throw it away, at this time, any equipment is precious.

The fat man looked at the lighter in his hand and said, "Naive, it seems that we are still late, and we have been stepped on a little here." ”

I kicked him and said, "This is not a fight, what to step on or not to step on, since that person can come in, there must be other exits here, let's look for it." "Fortunately, this lighter can be lit for a long time, so we took advantage of the faint light of the lighter, and began to walk towards the left passage, and the further we went, the more frightened I felt, because I found that this was not the underground grain storage room I imagined, but an armory storage room, and the farther we walked along the passage, the wider the road became, and at last we entered a circular armory room.

This weapon room, the left side has collapsed half, filled with yellow sand, although the loess at the top of the right has begun to crack, but it is still tenaciously supported, and I don't know when it will collapse, against the wall, all dense all kinds of weapons.

The fat man snorted and said, "We're in the armory." "I took a cursory look, and only the iron tools could still be seen, spears and arrowheads, all rusted and rotten.

I looked at these weapons and remembered the corpse jade bucket, so I reminded the fat man not to mess with the things here, the fat man patted me on the shoulder, and said: "These broken copper and iron, the fat man has a fart for it, and the people who sell scrap iron have to bump it, okay, it's important to find an outlet." With that, he took the lead, holding a lighter and starting to find a way around.

Due to the large space here and the relatively small irradiation range of the lighter, we could only look along the wall, but after looking around, we couldn't see an exit.

I don't think it's right, this basement is not a tomb, how can there be no exit, even if it is a tomb, there will be a sealed stone and a door, this lighter was actually thrown here, it means that someone must have come in, and then went out again, therefore, it must be me and the fat man missed something.

We held the lighter, and looked around, the place against the wall was full of rusty weapons, the wall was almost all covered, that is, there was an exit behind, a little smaller, I was afraid that the fat man and I would miss the past, so I let the fat man hold the lighter, and I walked into the pile of rotten iron weapons, where the fire shone, I threw away the weapons on the wall, and for a while, those spears, shields, and swords, as if throwing rags, flew around.

Soon, the fat man suddenly hissed in his mouth and said, "No." ”

What's not going to work? Before I could translate it, it was pitch black again, and my heart jumped, and I asked without tears: "Dead fatty, don't tell me I'm out of gas." ”

The fat man hissed in his mouth and said, "Don't be like a dead daughter-in-law, you still have gas, but this thing has been burning for too long, and it is so hot that you can't hold it, so you can put it out first and slow it down." "I immediately put my mind at ease, although the next bucket is often in the dark, but people don't like too dark environment, I don't give up to touch the lighter in my pocket, hit a few times, or only sparks without fire.

I turned the lighter upside down again, trying to shake out the sand inside, and so on and again, the fat man laughed at me heartlessly, and said: "Okay, naïve, don't toss, this time it's a lesson, the fat man has already told you, tell you to be generous, buy a good lighter, you fucking plastic stuff, don't you pit yourself?" ”

As soon as the fat man mentioned this, I remembered the pair of high-imitation sunglasses he sent, and even remembered the passer-by's armor, this bunch of messy things entered my mind, and I was suddenly upset, and I was about to scold, suddenly, the lighter in my hand was on fire, and the dim fire was burning.

I looked at the fat man's stunned face, grinned, shook the lighter in his hand proudly, and said, "Dead fat man, keep talking." The fat man's eyes widened, as if he had seen something unbelievable.

I think it's funny to see him like this, isn't it just that he has fixed a lighter? This dead fat man, as for the expression of seeing the Queen Mother of the West?

Wrong...... Queen Mother of the West!

I remembered the dried corpse next to the meteorite jade, and I shuddered. The fat man's expression was wrong, not like surprise, but as if he saw the Queen Mother of the West, and that expression seemed to be frightened.

I was shocked, at this time, the fat man made a silent gesture, and then pointed to my back and feet, I understood that something had changed, and immediately bowed my head cautiously.

Under my feet, there were rusty iron tools, a large black patch, and at this moment, between the cracks of those iron tools, small black snakes the thickness of a baby's finger were slowly crawling.

The color of these snakes is also black, you can hardly find it if you don't look carefully, the body is very thin, it seems that it has just come out of the shell, the eyes are still covered with a layer of white membrane, not fully opened, their slender bodies shuttle between the iron, and the black whirring iron is integrated, at first glance I thought there was nothing, but if you look closely, it is densely packed all over the ground, at this moment, there are many small black snakes are crawling slowly against the hem of my shoes and trouser legs.

I swallowed my saliva, and carefully looked at the back, this look, suddenly even the heart to cry, between the wall behind me, there are also countless small snakes crawling, his grandmother's, am I really a crow's mouth, just because I told the fat man to invite him to eat snake meat, let the master meet so many snakes, damn, no matter how big the fat man's appetite is, he can't eat so much.

It seems that from now on, I really can't talk nonsense, no wonder the ancestors like to listen to auspicious words, everything is good and not bad spirits, the ancients did not deceive me.

These little snakes seem to have just come out of the shell, most of them did not open their eyes, but the fire in my hand still stimulated them, the snakes like warm places, have gathered together to gather in a place where there is light, just this moment, under my feet, has formed several dense snake balls, black and round, from time to time there are tails and snake heads drilled out, and the snake wall behind me is getting thicker and thicker.

The fat man's face was almost dripping with sweat, and he gestured violently at me and shouted, "Quick, come here." "I swallowed my saliva, grandma's, so many human-faced birds have been seen, a few little snakes are afraid of a fart, and immediately hold a lighter to the direction of the fat man, fortunately, these little snakes have no offensive power, and the pants I wear are sturdy, even if there are a few bites, they can't bite through.

As soon as I got out of the snakes, the fat man immediately grabbed my arm and pulled me over, and then, when I turned around again, I suddenly found that the wall behind me was a passageway, where an arched stone passage was opened, and only half of the hole was exposed, and the other half was covered by iron tools, and then I realized that those little snakes had actually come out of the hole.

I and the fat man looked at each other, and suddenly couldn't speak, when the fat man swallowed his saliva, and said: "Damn, naïve, for a long time, this exit has become a snake nest, the fat man has been in close contact with the pheasant's neck, and now he is terrified when he sees the snake, no, and he won't go in to kill the fat man." ”
