Snow Mountain Cloud Peak Chapter 68 Travel light
I thought to myself, but I couldn't figure it out at all, and it's hard to find a reason for this.
Tibetans are generally very trustworthy, and people who lie a lot will not be able to get along in the pastoral areas at all.
And I panicked at the beginning, if I continue to make it up, I'm afraid that the situation will get worse and worse.
At this juncture, I suddenly saw Xiaohua'er turn over and go down the mountain, probably to call someone.
I hurriedly walked over to Renqing and said, "Brother Renqing, please allow me to explain today's matter again, you let Xiaohua'er come back first, if this matter is known to outsiders, it will be a big trouble." ”
Ren Qing said angrily: "There are also good explanations, you liars, I have seen you use your guns!" Don't think I'm afraid of you when there are too many people, get out of my pasture! ”
I said, "It's not what you think, I'll admit that we lied to you at first, and I can tell you why, but you have to make sure you don't let anyone know." ”
Renqing glared and said with a look of disdain: "Friend, it's useless to tell too many lies, how do you want me to believe you?" ”
I deliberately sold a pass: "If you have lived in this place since you were a child, then you should have heard of the Thousand Faces Demon King, right?" ”
Ren Qingqi said: "Thousand-faced Demon King? You know this too? ”
I said, "That's right, we took the risk to come here for the Thousand Faces Demon King, and you must know exactly what that means." Legend has it that the Thousand-Faced Demon King will come out every few hundred years to plague the snowy region. If we can find it out and solve it completely, will it also be considered a great virtue? ”
Renqing suddenly said excitedly: "Ah, you said it earlier, if it was for such a thing, I, Renqing, would definitely help you!" ”
As he spoke, he whistled and shouted a few more words in Tibetan.
When Xiaohua'er heard the shouting, she immediately turned around and walked back.
I suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, originally I really didn't have any bottom, so I had the idea of giving it a try and said that this matter was to eliminate the harm in the snowy region, but I didn't expect Renqing to share the same enemy with me without hesitation.
It seems that this Thousand-Faced Demon King is really a big scourge in their minds, otherwise today's trouble would be unpredictable.
Then he asked me, "Did you find anything?" ”
I said, "According to what we know, the true body of the Thousand-Faced Demon King has been sealed around here, in a place we went to just now. ”
Renqing hesitated for a moment and exclaimed, "Are you talking about the Heavenly Burial Platform?" ”
I smiled and said, "It's still Brother Renqing's smartness, so he knows that he can't hide it from you." Just now I asked you to take me to the burial platform just now to find out what is going on there, but who knows that there are those lamas there, and I haven't found anything.
Now we have decided to go again, if you want to go with us, Brother Renqing, with your experience of living in the snowy mountains for so many years, you will definitely be able to help us. ”
Ren Qing immediately resolutely said that it was incumbent upon him to get rid of such a major matter as the Thousand-Faced Demon King, and he was willing to help us.
When Xiaohua'er came back, he gave a few words in Tibetan, asked the little girl to guard the tent, and then took a spear and stood in front of us.
Seeing that I had persuaded Renqing, Luo Sangui nodded and said, "Little brother, you really have you, if you are in the army, it is no problem to be a political commissar." ”
I didn't say anything, and my mind quickly went over the path to the heavenly burial platform just now, if Zhou Haozi wanted to avoid everyone's eyes and ears to go there, he could only go over the mountain and go around from behind, and the kung fu must not have arrived at this time.
I hurriedly asked Luo Sangui to beckon the people to leave, otherwise if Zhou Haozi entered from somewhere else, it would be difficult to find him.
Since the journey was not far, everyone traveled lightly, bringing only some water and food. The rest of the equipment was left with two people to guard and come back to pick it up when needed.
However, when we arrived at the place, we were surprised to find that the large stone slab in the middle of the burial platform had been lifted up, and there was a vertical hole with a diameter of less than one meter at the bottom.
I looked at a lot of blood stains around me, and it was estimated that Zhou Haozi had already come, and I didn't expect him to be so fast with injuries.
Luo Sangui immediately decided to go directly to the cave, considering the possible danger, he asked Huang Mao to go back to get the equipment, and we took the first step.
The vertical hole was almost five meters deep, and there was a stone platform on the edge, just enough to stand on one foot.
Renqing explained to us that this kind of vertical hole was a burial for nobles in ancient Tibet, and that the deeper the hole, the higher the status, but few people know about the situation below, because all the slaves involved in this kind of work would be buried alive as burial objects.
Hearing this, Yun Jin and Liang Zi were nervous for a while, after all, the two of them had never experienced such a thing.
But Jin Hu and Luo Sangui didn't think so at all, for them, tomb robbing is their business, and it is not surprising what kind of scene it is.
I'm a little worried about how long can Zhou Hezi's physical condition last?
If the following situation is more complicated, I am afraid that it will be difficult for us to find his trace for a while, in case something happens to him, then my trip will be in vain.
We climbed down from the entrance of the cave in turn, Renqing took the lead at the bottom, the golden tiger followed, and the tail of Luo Sangui was broken.
When I got to the bottom of the cave, I saw another narrow hole half a meter high on the left-hand side, and I didn't know where it leads.
Renqing Cat went in alone to explore the way, and came back to tell us that there was a fork in the road a little further, so he came back first.
This was obviously a bit unexpected, and we came to the fork in the road, which was exactly the same width on both sides, and there were traces of artificial holes on the sides, but there were straights on one side and curves on the other.
At first, I thought it was some kind of trick, but Jin Hu analyzed that he had also touched the ancient Tibetan tomb before, and many of the designs were the same here, and he could gain something no matter where he went.
However, our goal this time is not for the things inside, but for the Thousand Faces Demon King, which requires us to make a choice.
I watched carefully with a flashlight for a long time, but I didn't find any footprints, blood stains, etc., it seems that Zhou Haozi had been prepared, and after coming down, he wiped all his traces clean.
So I suggested that Luo Sangui go his separate ways, but he said that there was a faint evil aura in this place, and the Thousand-Faced Demon King was by no means a good stubble, and I was afraid that it would not be safe if everyone separated.
I know he's worried about us slipping away, so I'll have to let him do it.
Luo Sangui thought for a long time, and finally chose the straight road, he thought that no matter what, there would be a road ahead, and it was a big deal to retreat.
We followed it for a long time, and the more we went, the more panicked we became, for the ground was nothing but white bones covered in animal skins, mixed with many strange objects.
I saw something that looked like a prayer wheel, but instead of scripture plated on it, it was a demon with fangs and the body of a beast.
Half an hour later, we finally found a naturally formed stone cave, and Liang Zi was the first to notice a pool of blood on the ground, which meant that we had come to the right place.
Luo Sangui immediately asked one of his men to go out to pick up the yellow-haired men, while we squatted on the ground and rested for a few minutes.
During this period, Liang Zi accidentally discovered that there were many Tibetan characters carved on the walls of the cave.
Renqing studied it for a long time and told us that this script was very ancient, it was the first Tibetan language created in the Tibetan era, and even if he could read a few words, he could not fully grasp the true meaning of it.
However, he said that based on individual words, it could be inferred that there was indeed a nobleman buried here, and his status was not low, so he was a little skeptical of the statement that there was a thousand-faced demon king here.
I explained to him that everything had been discovered by Zhou Haozi from the ancient Tibetan book he had obtained, and that there should be no mistake, and I assured him that even if we couldn't find the Thousand-Faced Demon King, we wouldn't touch anything here.
When I said this, I deliberately glanced at Luo Sangui, hoping that he would also give a promise, because I know that Tibetans will never allow outsiders to act recklessly in their pastures, although they can entertain you with good wine and meat, but without the consent of the master, it is taboo for you to take away a single grass and tree.
Luo Sangui finally knew the severity, and said on the spot that he was only for the thousand-faced demon king this time, and nothing else would be moved.
After hearing this, Renqing completely eliminated his vigilance and beckoned us to start again.
Since I had little experience and didn't know anything about this Tibetan burial structure, I asked Jin Hu if there was still a long way to go.
Jin Hu told me that it depends on the status of the owner of the tomb, usually the higher the status, the bigger the project, there are thousands of rings in it, and he can't say anything about it.
Not long after we left, there was a sudden cry of misery, and everyone was startled, completely unaware of what was happening.
It was still the golden tiger ear spirit, and he was the first to hear the clue: "It should be that something happened later, everyone be careful!" ”
As soon as I thought about it, there were only Luo Sangui's subordinates behind me, could it be that they were entangled in some dirty things?
Luo Sangui immediately told us to retreat, because he was afraid that his subordinates would lose their equipment if something happened, and they couldn't do it without those equipment in the future.
This makes us very uncertain, and in case of any danger, we don't even have a weapon to use.
However, here he has the final say, and everyone can only do it.
But there was one exception, Renqing said that he would not go back, he felt that he was completely obligated to help us, and if there was danger, he did not want to wade into troubled waters.
So we left a flashlight for him, turned around and started to rush back.
Unexpectedly, after just a few steps, Huang Mao rushed in panting, and almost didn't cry when he saw us.
Luo San scolded angrily: "What are you panicking about? What the hell is going on out there? ”
Huang Mao said: "I don't know, I just came in with a backpack and a few of them, and suddenly something started chasing us, and then I heard someone shouting that it was miserable, and my legs were weak on the spot, so I didn't care about them, and ran in first." ”
Luo Sangui was dissatisfied: "Something that has no interest, such a little thing is scary?" Where's your gun? ”
But then, he suddenly lost his voice and shouted, "Run!" ”
At first glance, I panicked......
