Chapter 313 Ten Thousand Bones Wither
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, due to the Yellow Turban Uprising of the Zhang Jiao brothers, the war spread rapidly in 28 counties in seven states across the country.
General Tiangong's ability to scatter beans into soldiers and drive the ghost clan is also boiling among the people.
At that time, I was working on goods in the county town, and I noticed that there was a war going on, so I hurried home. On the way, I met a group of Yellow Turban Army, and for some reason I followed them through several cities and counties in a daze.
In the end, I secretly left them and returned to my beloved village, Xinshui Village.
My name is Liu Yan, I am the only seedling of the Liu family in Xinshui Village, and during the time I went out, my grandmother had reached the limit and drove the crane west.
From the moment I arrived home, my father asked me to carry out the great filial piety at my grandmother's spiritual throne for 7749 days.
When the vigil was on the 10th day, my father told me something.
"Wu Shu came to you in a hurry this morning, and then ran away with a firewood knife. ”
"Didn't you say anything?"
The father said, "I heard that your Uncle Wu was bitten by a vicious dog, and he wants to take revenge." ”
"Oh, a vicious dog hurting people?"
"Bad things come to the door!" said the father, "you remember this sentence, the dogs in the village have been eaten by both of you!"
I used to like dogs very much, but then my father told me this, and Wu Shu and I did not pack up the dogs in the village, and the family also lost a lot of money because of this incident.
At night, my grandmother's spiritual lamp was still on, and my father came to take over at this time, and I went back to the room after three bows and nine knocks.
What my father told me during the day, I was a little unsure of what I was talking about, so I took advantage of the moonlight to go to Wu Shu's house.
Seeing that Uncle Wu was still looking at the entrance of the village, the first thought in my heart was that Wu Shu should have never returned.
"Uncle Wu, you go back first, I'll look for him. ”
"Little Monkey, it's so late, be careful on the road, don't enter those ten thousand bones!"
Ten thousand bones dry is the forbidden place in the village, listen to the old people in the village, this is the cemetery of the Warring States period hundreds of years ago, entering the cemetery of the ancestors is a taboo in Confucianism, we are all people who practice Confucianism, so this is something that must be careful.
I took out my broken sword from home and chased it all the way in the direction of Ten Thousand Bones, but what disturbed me was that when I chased it to the door of Ten Thousand Bones, I didn't find Wu Shu.
All you can see are messy footprints under your feet, along the dirt road that leads to the bones to the depths.
I immediately became nervous, could it be that Wu Shu had already entered the Ten Thousand Bones? I didn't dare to think about it anymore, so I could only follow in, and I must pull Wu Shu out.
If you really commit a big taboo, not only will you be scolded by the villagers, but you will also have the notoriety of stealing graves and digging graves and bullying your ancestors.
I followed the footprints all the way in, and when I reached the mouth of the tomb with ten thousand bones, I found a newly dug robbery hole, leading to the tomb, and a small shovel was thrown at the entrance of the hole.
As I continued along the cave, I suddenly spotted a figure.
"Wu Shu, what are you doing?"
When he saw Wu Shu, he once again stood motionless in place, not knowing what to mutter, because this thief hole seemed to be connected to the vent in the tomb, so it was very crowded for a big man like Wu Shu to enter.
I hurriedly moved two steps, approached Wu Shu and said, "Brother, let's go out, after all, stealing graves and digging graves is a big taboo, and I will really be infamous in the future, how can my family still walk around the village." ”
Wu Shu squatted there and still didn't move, his mouth was still muttering something, he didn't seem to hear my words, in the blink of an eye, Wu Shu's body began to tremble, and gradually let out a low roar, my hair was scattered, and that roar would turn into a weird laugh from time to time.
I suddenly felt bad, my heart was uneasy, and my heart suddenly rose to my throat.
I feel that Wu Shu is not evil, and he has just entered the tomb when he encounters such a thing. I didn't dare to slack off, so I reached out and grabbed the placket behind Wu Shu's shirt and pulled it back violently.
Actually, I want to pull Wu Shu back to the entrance of the cave, according to my calculations, after all, we haven't gone far yet, and I should be able to save Wu Shu when I go back at this time.
But when I pulled again, Wu Shu turned his head suddenly, his long hair covered half of his face, the corners of his mouth pulled down, he stretched out his long tongue, rolled his eyes, and his face was laughing for a while, crying for a while, and his mouth was roaring from time to time.
"Damn, don't let you in, it looks like I'm going to have to hack you. "I pulled out my broken sword with my hand, and raised it to slash at Wushu.
My sword is very fast, although the space in the passage is very small, but it does not hinder my sword technique at all.
Just as the broken sword was about to approach Wu Shu, Wu Shu's face suddenly burst into a silly smile, and he immediately waved his hand: "Stop, don't be serious, I just want to see how brave you are." ”
As soon as I heard Wu Shu say this, I immediately retracted my sword, and a ball of anger went straight to my head: "Bastard, can you make such a joke casually?"
"My fault, my fault, it's not that I haven't seen you for a few months, I just want to see if you have forgotten my brother, and it's good that you came to help me. Wu Shu smiled at me.
I calmed down for a moment and asked, "Did you find the vicious dog?"
"Hey, let it run again, why is this guy so familiar with this place?"
I said, "Then don't chase after me, go out with me." ”
"Oh, my feet don't listen anymore. ”
"Do you have to kick you before you come with me?"
Wu Shu immediately waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I'll figure it out myself." ”
But at this time, I don't know what Wu Shu encountered, there was a sudden sound in the thief hole behind us, and a bluestone blocked it.
"Now it's okay, my shovel is thrown outside, and I can't walk if I want to. ”
I tried to push the bluestone slab several times, but no matter how hard I tried, the slate didn't move. In desperation, he could only continue to go to the tomb with Wu Shu.
Along the way, the green bricks on both sides of the road became more and more visible, and the patterns on them were antique, most of them were daily necessities, and there were even carvings depicting farmland work.
It is very likely that these things were designed when the tomb was designed, and it was used to pray for the prosperity of the tomb owner after his death, and to have a field and a life.
But just as we were about to reach the end of the passage, we suddenly found that there was no road ahead, and squatted at the entrance of the passage and looked forward, and it was pitch black.
Wu Shu stretched out his hand to test the things next to the entrance of the passage, and looked inside through the faint light reflected from the outside of the passage, and it was actually a deep pit.
I looked down, and I don't know if it was because of the light, so I couldn't see anything under the passage at all.
The road was smooth, and although the space was limited, there were no other troubles. But we didn't take two steps, and the bluestone bricks under our feet began to loosen, and the center of gravity under our feet shifted.
I also felt myself lose my balance, and the ground beneath my feet was slowly sliding towards the entrance of the passage.
"Run, run, there's a trap. Wu Shu couldn't help but shout.
I also knew that the two of us must have been hit by the trap, and began to run desperately towards the entrance of the passage where we came, and the faster we ran, the faster the green bricks under our feet slid down.
Gradually, we see that the floor tiles are declining one by one, and the speed and area of the decline are increasing.
Seeing that the entrance to the cave was getting farther and farther away, the light gradually turned into a point of light, and the ventilation channel completely collapsed, and the falling green bricks piled up along the passage in the direction of the interior of the cemetery.
Wu Shu and I seemed to be floating in the air, falling rapidly, and I felt a sense of near-death in my heart, my chest was very tight, and when I fell, the wind in my ears was whistling.
I closed my eyes tightly, desperately breathing what seemed to be the last few breaths of my life, and I had given up hope of life.
But before we could get ready, we only felt that our body had hit the ground and fell hard. Suddenly, Wu Shu and I screamed in pain, and I felt as if my waist had been broken, rolling back and forth.
But fortunately, the distance between the passage and the ground was not as high as we thought, and although the pain was unbearable after falling, it did not hurt the muscles and bones after landing.
"Wu Shu, how are you?" I rolled on the ground for a while, holding my waist, and felt like I could still get up, but I found that I couldn't see my fingers in front of me.
"I'm not dead, I'm still alive, I really thought we were going to confess. ”
I touched it with my hand and relied on my voice to discern the direction of Wu Shu: "There is no light here, where are you?"
"Sand!" Wu Shu lit a pine oil stick, illuminating the pitch-black space.
"Where did you get this thing?"
"Don't mention it, I got it from Sister-in-law Li a few days ago. ”
I took a closer look at the environment by the light of the pine oil stick, looked up in the direction I came, and looked bitterly: "I can't leave even if I want to." ”
I then looked around the chamber. A tomb chamber that is not too big, the four walls are all bluestone carvings, and there are many strange things on it, which do not look very clear, and it seems that they have never seen anything in the carving.
Suddenly, a gust of wind swept by, "Listen, listen!" Wu Shu's face suddenly became a little nervous, and his head twisted violently to the place where the voice came from.
I was teased once by Wu Shu at the beginning, so I asked, "Okay, don't do it again, where's the voice?"
As soon as I finished speaking, the voice got closer and closer, and it seemed to be at our feet.
"Help me, help me!" the voice shouted childishly and long, and the atmosphere really became very oppressive.
I reached out and pulled Wu Shu, my eyes were fixed on Wu Shu's lips, and I noticed that his lips had not moved, but the voice kept coming.
Wu Shu slowly lowered the pine oil stick in his hand, and in addition to the green bricks that fell from the mouth of the passage, there were some strange things on the ground.
"That seems to be an altar!" Wu Shu said.
"Help me, save me!"
