Chapter 8: The Cliff Crack
It seems that the spider did not notice the threat of the soft body, and only thought that it was a moving object. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Info saw that the soft body was getting closer, as if he was going to compete with himself for the food in front of him, and eight limbs covered me in the middle, if it weren't for the cockroach more than half a foot thick on my body, I would have already killed me. It was leaning over to push away the cockroach, and I was about to stretch out my dagger to cut its mouthparts, just as the soft body came to kill it. Just as the soft body was about to approach the spider's limb, the spider saw that it could not enjoy its food quietly, and stretched out a limb to bounce the thing away, but the limb was sucked by the mollud. The spider hurriedly shook its limbs, but the more it shook, the deeper it sank, and now the spider was in a hurry, gave up on me, and all the limbs went to struggle with the soft body. One twisted so hard that he twisted off a forelimb, and the spider was in pain, curled up and fell. At this time, the soft body was only two meters away from me, I quickly climbed up, shaking off a lot of cockroaches on my body, and many cockroaches were crushed by me when I grabbed the plant, but I couldn't take care of it, just desperately climbed up. After crawling for a moment, I felt that I was moving upwards without force, and it turned out that these cockroaches were pushing me. There were more and more of them, and under me and between the soft bodies they had formed a lump the size of a house, pushing me upwards and upwards. It's effortless, although it's not as fast as I can climb on my own, but I can still land the soft body for a distance, and I just need to open the cockroach on the head to breathe.
Riding this cloud of cockroaches that grew larger and larger, I slowly found that the cockroaches were transporting me to a gap in the cliff. The cliffs on both sides were getting narrower and narrower, making the cockroaches more powerful, and I was able to rise a little faster. In fact, it is not easy for these cockroaches to do this, each individual must know where he is, understand in which direction he should exert himself and what to rely on, the wisdom of weak creatures is incomprehensible to humans. As there were more and more cockroaches, I could actually pace on the clouds, and I could no longer feel the condition of the soft-bodied guy below, so I could leisurely think about the next encounter and response, although I still had to push off the cockroaches on the front to keep breathing.
After rising like this for more than half an hour, a hole appeared in the gap of the cliff wall, which turned out to be a cave. The cave is four or five meters wide and high, but the width of the bottom is less than one meter, and it is just a gap in the mountain. The cockroaches carried me into the cave, and I quickly got up in the wave of bugs and walked briskly into the depths of the cave. The ground is not easy to walk, the height is very rugged, the height difference is also very large, sometimes it is climbing, sometimes it is vertical descent, fortunately, it is basically a very narrow gap, and both hands can support both sides. After traveling like this for more than a kilometer, there were fewer and fewer cockroaches around me, and I felt that the soft body behind me was a distant threat to me. Regardless of whether the guy was still chasing me or not, the cockroach colony had already filled the hole behind me so full that it couldn't even circulate air. I stretched my body for a while, and the problem I was worried about was not obvious but it was serious, so I simply rested for a while and moved on. The worry is whether there is an exit in front, because the cockroaches behind him have sealed the cave, and if there is no exit in front, then the air has become a problem.
The overall feeling is still upward, which gives me more hope and is getting closer and closer to the ground. The cliff in front of it suddenly became more spacious, four or five meters wide, and the height became unattainable, but it was jammed with a huge thing. If you look closely, it turns out to be the skull of a dinosaur, which has long been petrified. Actually, I haven't seen dinosaur fossils, but I just saw a little bit about them on books and TV. But this skull is so big that I can only think of dinosaurs, and no animal in the world has such a big head except dinosaurs. The front end of the upper and lower jaws is aligned, and there are no sharp canine teeth, so it seems that it should be a herbivorous dinosaur, and only a plant-eating dinosaur would have such a large body size. A single skull is the size of half a house. I drilled into the mouth of the evolution stone through the gap next to the tooth and tried to drill back from the throat, but there was a coffin between the upper and lower jaws in the dinosaur's mouth! I was stunned, who was so capable? I was able to find the skull of a dinosaur as a coffin? In order to save power, it was not necessary to build a coffin, or was it a very good character to be used as a dragon vein to take its feng shui with the help of a dragon's head? Can a dinosaur be used as a dragon vein as feng shui for burials? I am ashamed of my lack of relevant knowledge, but since I have seen it, it is also a chance meeting, how can I not open the coffin and get the treasure at such a great opportunity! Only this time except for a dagger, I really have no tools in my hand, not even a minimum of nail drivers, ropes, and masks, not to mention candles, what if the zongzi comes out?
Determined, I found a way to open the coffin. Dagger in hand, look around for something usable. When the coffin is nailed, there is always a nail that cannot be nailed, and it can be driven up to half the depth of the nail. First, because there is a rule when mourning, the last nail can only be smashed with a hammer, and how deep it is calculated. Therefore, in ancient times, mourning always had to find a good carpenter, just for this last nail. If the hammer is smashed well, it will be lucky, if it is not smashed well, it will be unlucky if it is crooked or the coffin is nailed. Therefore, there are many coffins that reserve a suitable nail hole when making coffins, and the hammer can be smashed very satisfactorily when the final nail is made. Groping along the coffin, I found the half-exposed nail of the coffin. Although the wood was very good, I sharpened and dug with a dagger, and it didn't take much effort to pull out the nail. This is obviously an iron nail in ancient times, and the nails at that time were all forged, and they would have obvious pointed and thick roots, and they were four-edged, just like the railway nails on the rail sleepers that are rarely seen now, but they were more slender. This is actually for tomb robbers, and such pointed thick roots are just used to open coffins. But this iron nail could not withstand any beating at all, and it had long since rotted like a handful of mud and sand. In this case, the rest of the iron nails should not be difficult to solve, I pushed the coffin lid hard, and the coffin lid actually moved! Could it be that this coffin has also been opened by the third uncle?
The third uncle is not as unsuccessful as me, and there are ways to deal with the coffin. Even if he takes away something, I have to see what is going on in it, and whether it has anything to do with the third uncle's current situation. I turned to the opposite side, stuck a dagger on the top of the wooden coffin, and pulled hard, staggering the lid of the coffin to reveal more than half of the coffin mouth, and then turned back and pulled up my clothes to cover my mouth and nose, and looked into the coffin. As my gaze fell into the coffin, a glowing green glow was released from the coffin. The light comes out of nothing, as if the contents of a coffin fluoresce when it comes into contact with air. But it doesn't seem to be, because inside the coffin is a pool of green fluorescent liquid with more than two-thirds of the volume. The liquid is translucent, and the inner corners of the coffin inside the liquid can be seen, and there is a female corpse inside the liquid. The female corpse is as beautiful as a living person, the whole body is ****, the whole body is like translucent, the figure is exquisite, the skin is delicate and silky, the skin is like ice and snow, the skin is delicate and silky, a pair of beautiful eyes are half-open and half-closed, the long hair is scattered on both sides of the fragrant shoulders, and the hands are inserted in the upper abdomen under the beautiful breasts, and the demeanor is serene and quiet and extraordinary, which makes people feel refreshed. I was holding my breath and taking in the view, but the gradual change in the scenery made me so stunned and frightened. The tranquil state was only a few minutes, and the female corpse slowly moved. There was still no expression on her face, but her eyes were completely open, and she slowly got up gracefully, but what was exposed on the surface of the liquid was miserable white bones, and her face was hideous and terrifying, and when she did it, half of her body was exposed to the water, but it became a whole bloody skeleton, and the fluorescent liquid also turned into black and purple plasma. When the skeleton stood up from the coffin, there was no liquid in the coffin, and it turned into extremely dry dust, which fluttered up with the skeleton's movements and flew into the surrounding space. The space inside the dinosaur's mouth was already very small, and for a while, the skeleton in the flying dust got up and opened its mouth to pounce on me!
I was astonished, because the gap between the situation and the situation was so great that no one could psychologically accept such a big change, just as the eyes of a person who suddenly entered a dark room in the strong sunlight outside would suddenly lose sight.
But my current state is not as sensitive as I used to be, and the sensory nerves in my body seem to be not my own, and any sensation seems to be very distant, and it seems to be transmitted to me through a very thick leather. But the moment the skeleton pounced on me, I felt a shock, and I took a few steps back from my body, watching my own body curl up in the small space and staring stupidly at the skeleton that pounced on me. But at this moment, the skeleton was focused on me and not on my body, looking at me as it left my body, and threw itself into scattered dust on the dinosaur skull and rock wall, which frantically reverberated through the entire space, and then disappeared like an illusion, along with the dust and liquid, as if there was no such thing at all.
Almost involuntarily, I exhaled back into my body, recalling in amazement what had just happened. What the hell is going on? Is what I just seeing a real occurrence or an illusion? Could it be that the beauty and the skeleton are only aimed at me or one of my bodies? And once we are separated, the situation is invalid?
I can't figure it out, I just don't think about it, everything is normal anyway, I haven't seen the real situation inside the coffin. Cover your mouth and nose with your collar again and look into the coffin. This time, there was no suspense inside, just an almost petrified skeleton, perhaps because of the vibration of the coffin lid, the dry dust inside quietly dispersed, slowly filling the space inside the coffin. A slight sense of consciousness seemed very suspicious in my mind.
"What are you?"
I couldn't answer, "What do you think?"
"Why did you come back when you left?"
"You've mistaken someone!"
"Even if you come back, it's the same!"
I don't seem to understand the nonsense at all, although I'm not sure if the consciousness is talking to me, "Maybe you're overestimating me!" I said.
"End it all, you can do it. ā
I was a little angry and yelled at the darkness, "You ghosts! can't you make me understand what you're talking about!"
I don't know if my roar scared the ghosts, or if they found out that my stupidity was disdainful of communicating with me, and I didn't get a response from them, and I didn't realize it at all.
There was really no suspense in the coffin, nothing but weird shrouds and skeletons. There were no ornaments around his neck, no money in his mouth, no bracelets on his hands, and no dog whip. Since there is nothing, what do you want to protect by doing such a ruthless illusion corpse? I really wanted to turn this coffin over and search it carefully! But I suddenly noticed that there were several rows of neat words on the outside of the coffin: "The coffin of white coffin, the clothes that are perishable, the copper and iron are not entered, and the pottery is not hidden." Sorry for the descendants, don't hurt me!".
I read it for a long time, and the understanding is to say: simple tombs, nothing, people who come, please don't hurt me. What a painstaking effort! Since there is nothing left, what protection can there be? I have found such a rare dinosaur as a coffin, and such an awesome setting is still crying here, who can believe it! Don't hurt, don't hurt, seal it for you, anyway, even if I take something and don't have my life to go out, it's not certain, I just want to see if it's the cause of my third uncle's illness. I suddenly thought that the third uncle had also seen the scene of the beautiful woman I had just seen turned into a skeleton? Could it be that he was really frightened by this? After thinking about it, it should not be, the third uncle would not have been deranged by such a simple fright if he dared to rob the tomb, and even I was not scared and still wanted to scare my third uncle? What a joke!
I had just closed the lid of the coffin when there were suddenly more cockroaches around me. Looking back, the cockroaches that were crammed into the road were messing around, and it seemed that the soft body was chasing after it again. It's really ghostly, but if you die, you can still keep running, anyway, I don't plan to return the copper coins. Crawling out of the neck bones through the gaps in the dinosaur's neck, those neck bones are linked to each other one by one. When the dinosaur died, it had muscles in its body, and now only bones remain, so there are gaps in the stone where it was buried, and I crawled through these gaps. I guess the gap between the dinosaur's body can be larger, but what about after that? I don't have a score, I hope the soft body can't get through such a narrow gap, so I can live a little longer!
I dug up the soil in front of me and kicked it behind me, and in some places I simply buried it tightly, so that there were very few cockroaches that followed. There was a distance of about ten meters, and after climbing for half an hour, I finally reached the sternum of the dinosaur, and gradually the inside of the fossil became spacious. I found a gap and got in, there was space for two houses, but it was half buried in the earth. Like a spindle-shaped cavity, a dinosaur's vertebrae are connected from between the two tips, and the ribs and spines of the spine support the four walls of space in all directions. I walked underneath the skeleton, my ribs long and crooked in the dirt beneath my feet, and I could see less than half the length. As I was walking, my foot was pricked, and I felt that it was not a stone, and it almost pierced the sole of my sneakers. I couldn't see it clearly when I looked down, but I reached out and touched it, and I felt that the shape was very special, so I grabbed it and pulled it out, so I finally got it out of the soil. I felt it carefully, it looked like the helmet of an ancient general, and the tip of the helmet pierced my foot was very exquisite. The spire is about 20 centimeters long, and the helmet is carved with delicate patterns, and the edge is like a straw hat.
I think there's something down there, but the soft body behind me is already chasing after me, and even though I'm blocking the way with dirt, it still doesn't seem to be able to stop the guy from chasing after me. But I should be able to resist for a while, and I have no other way out to continue to escape. I thought about it, and when that guy chased after me, I fought with him, why are you so unrelenting, isn't it just a little stinky copper coin? I'll give it to you!
I gave up on running for my life, so I was relieved to come down and try digging into the dirt under my feet. There were no tools, only the dagger, so I sat down and dug slowly. It doesn't matter if you dig this one, there are really a lot of things. A Mongolian waist knife, bent like a crescent moon that saw the light of the previous day. A decanter, shaped like a nightjug, except that it has no top lid and a handle on the buttocks. All are delicate, with very fine embossed patterns. There's still something to dig down there, but I'm basically waiting to die, and I'm not in the mood to dig anymore. The important thing is to dig up an iron spear, which is a red tassel spear used in ancient wars. The red tassel has long been rotted, and the rust on the tip of the gun is not serious, and it seems that the craftsmanship is good. There are also exquisite carvings on the barrel of the gun, with a diameter of three centimeters and a length of more than two meters, which should be more than forty catties. The guy is good, when the soft body comes, it seems that we can use this guy to fight it. There's also a scimitar, which I'm not used to, but it's better than nothing. I simply stopped and lay down to rest, clearly feeling that the soft body was getting closer and closer, and the distance from the skull to this place was only about ten meters, which should not be more than three meters.
"Do you need help?" I shouted.
Waiting is always boring, and I seem to be as insensitive to fear as those feelings. Thinking about what to do now? I suddenly remembered that those ghosts told me that they wanted me to break the keel, could it be this keel? What does this keel have to do with them here? If I interrupt, I will interrupt, and the chaotic environment here will cause more inconvenience to the software attacking me, so I will do it. I picked up the iron gun and looked at the two-meter-thick dinosaur vertebrae, which could not be shaken by smashing it directly, so I had to find a gap and try it. Finally, in the section without ribs, there was a joint gap, and there was a period of movement, and a section of the vertebrae fell down. It's broken, but what if it's broken? I was thinking about it, and the few joints that had no rib support slowly fell off one by one, and then the joints on the other side of the tailbone were moving. At this time, an unexpected situation appeared, the spines of the vertebrae were against the rocks above, and now the rocks had no support, and some large and small stones fell, and finally the whole rock on both sides closed to the middle and supported together, and the two rows of ribs were crushed and broken, and the earth and stones fell down in a clatter.
