Chapter 69: Death to the Enterer
Three days later, new photos came from Siguniang Mountain.
Zhang Qixun led the team into the cave again, and the process was the same as the previous time, shoveling horse manure, opening mechanisms, and climbing the cave.
However, this time the passage was more than twice as difficult to climb as before, because of the stony in the robbery hole, the rocks were uneven, sometimes narrow and sometimes wide, they seemed to be crawling in a straw full of folds, and every time the folds contracted, the fat man had to be stuck once, and the angry fat man almost broke his mouth and scolded.
The group crawled in the thief cave in the dark, and there was finally an opening in front of them.
Zhang Qixun jumped down from the exit and looked at the cave.
The layout here is obviously much more elaborate than the first two, the whole cave has been repaired into a dome stone chamber, the ground is also very flat, and there are even two rows of humanoid stone pillars and figurines without facial features on both sides of the stone chamber.
The third sealing stone was in front of him, and the Huo family was already impatient to rush over, but was stopped by the little brother, "Wait, there are strange things here." β
Some people don't believe it, "It's been so smooth all the way, what's so weird?" β
Hearing this, Zhang Qixun turned over and kicked on the man's knee, and the man was caught off guard and stumbled forward, and Bo Linggai plopped down on a stone slab in front of him.
The stone slab instantly sank down under the force, and at the same time, the figurines and lampposts on both sides of the stone room made a click of stone friction, and the side without facial features suddenly turned to face everyone, and at the same time, the lamp brush held by the figurines lit up the flames.
The Huo family was shocked by this sudden change and kept retreating, and the one kneeling on the ground was even more frightened, stiff, pale, and didn't dare to move.
Zhang Qixun sneered, his eyes swept around the retreating Huo family, and he sighed and shook his head.
really entered the Zhangjia Ancient Building, these people are too cumbersome to be cannon fodder.
"It's not a good idea, a small mechanism scares you like this." The fat man sneered unceremoniously, "Get out of the way, don't get in the way, the fat man will go over and take a look." β
The fat man pushed away the Huo family blocking in front of him, walked to Zhang Qixun and the little brother, and looked at the stone slab where the firelight was concentrated, "Yo, there are still words here, what is written?" β
"Those who are not from my people, those who enter will die." Zhang Qixun read out the two lines of seals.
Fatty: "Huh? With a sigh, his eyes widened, "Death to the person who enters?" What does this mean? β
The little brother had a solemn face and slowly spoke, "This is a warning, people with foreign surnames can't enter the Zhangjia Ancient Building alive." β
A chill rushed up from the soles of his feet to his backbone, and the fat man rubbed the goosebumps on his body, feeling a little panicked, "I rely on my little brother, don't scare me!" β
The little brother didn't say anything, just stared quietly at the complete fire-stepping wind unicorn on the sealed stone, and his eyes were deep.
The entire stone room was silent, and everyone held their breath and did not dare to move.
The atmosphere was very depressing, and the fat man laughed dryly, "Haha, this little brother looks serious on weekdays, and he makes jokes to scare people to death." β
"No kidding." Zhang Qixun turned his head to stare at the fat man, "This is the last warning to the trespassers." β
"The Zhang family's rules are strict and extremely xenophobic, and there will be no forgiveness for anyone who tries to enter here in vain to steal secrets."
Seeing that the fat man's face turned white, Zhang Qixun smiled suddenly, and patted him on the shoulder, "Look at what scares you, the rules are dead, people are alive, isn't it still me and my little brother, I will definitely not let you have an accident." β
The fat man suddenly relaxed, took a big breath, and coughed twice when he inhaled too quickly, "I'm scared to death of the fat man, your kid's special mother's wilting is bad, and the little brother is such an honest stuffy gourd, all of which are damaged by you." β
"Just kidding to liven up the atmosphere." Zhang Qixun turned to stare at the Huo family with a grin, and tilted his head, "You guys...... I don't think so. β
The Huo family was stared at by his eyes, and immediately shuddered, hurriedly waved their hands, and flatly denied: "No, no, how can it be." β
"It's good if you're happy."
"yes, yes, we're not important."
Zhang Qixun snorted and laughed, didn't pay any more attention to them, and turned around with a touch of coolness in his eyes.
Of course, he and the little brother will not let the fat man die, as for the others, they can only resign themselves to fate.
Zhang Qixun was scaring the Huo family's gang, and the little brother had already bypassed the handwriting on the floor and walked to the edge of the sealing stone, stretching out his finger and groping on it.
It was a complete picture of a fire-stepping unicorn, but there were still some slight differences with the tattoo on the little brother's body, the position of the unicorn's head was carved in great detail, but the edge position was deliberately blurred.
The little brother's fingertips finally stayed on the eyes of the unicorn, pressed down hard, and there was a light sound of metal collision, and the unicorn diagram in front of him suddenly seemed to come to life, and it was divided into nine pieces in an instant, and at the same time it was translated and shrunk into the surroundings, revealing the square relief below.
The fat man hey, took a tentative step forward, and asked Zhang Qixun, "If I walk up, there shouldn't be any mechanism popping up suddenly, right?" β
"No, it's a scare machine, a wake-up call, a reminder to those who want to go in." Zhang Qixun smiled lightly.
The fat man was relieved, leaned over to look at the relief, and then turned around and greeted the Huo family, "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you come over and take pictures." β
Seeing that there was indeed no problem after the fat man passed, the Huo family was relieved and held the camera to take a picture.
Seeing this, the Huo family kneeling on the ground also wanted to get up, and as soon as the clinker's knees left the ground, the flames in the hands of the figurines flickered, and he was so frightened that he immediately knelt upright again.
Zhang Qixun chuckled, "It seems that our ancestor has a big opinion of you kid, or you won't come in next time." β
The Huo family, who was kneeling on the ground, stiffened their faces and smiled bitterly, not daring to act rashly.
Seeing that he was honestly kneeling, Zhang Qixun ignored him anymore and walked to the little brother and the fat man to observe the reliefs.
The little brother was staring at one of the pictures with a hint of confusion in his eyes.
Zhang Qixun followed his line of sight, it was...... An ancient tower that resembles a temple, with countless chains wrapped around it, as if something terrible is imprisoned inside.
The chains spread to the other two reliefs, the one at three o'clock was engraved with a funeral scene, nine people without right hands around a large coffin, the chains tightly wrapped around the coffin, the nine men each holding a gabala bowl in their hands, the bowl contained something unknown, and from the coffin extended nine thinner chains, directly connected to the bare right hands of the nine men.
This is - Kowloon carrying the coffin!
Zhang Qixun was shocked, and quickly turned his head to look at the last picture.
It was a bridge of chains, straddling the edge of two cliffs, and in the abyss below the bridge was a cloud of flames gushing out, and at one end of the bridge, the chains spread here and stopped, because there was a door there, much like the bronze gate on Changbai Mountain.
These three pictures are simply delicate and terrifying, Zhang Qixun only stood here, and some scenes began to pop up in his mind, as if he saw the eight most powerful people in the Zhang family back then, under the leadership of the patriarch, through the surging and endless karmic fire, and sent the huge coffin to the bronze gate at the other end of the bridge.
The tower that was imprisoned by chains was more like the heavy shackles that had been pressed on the Zhang family for thousands of years.
However, Zhang Qixun made it clear that the content on these reliefs was not the scene outside the bronze gate of Changbai Mountain, so there was only one possibility, this was the bronze gate in the depths of the Himalayas.
The fat man couldn't understand the content on it, and remembered what Zhang Qixun had said before, so he turned around and looked for the fire pattern in the corners of the stone room.
After two turns in the stone room, the corners and corners of the stone wall were found, and I didn't see any special patterns, and when I was about to go home, the air flow brought up by the turn fanned the flames on the lamppost, and the light and shadow flashed, and the fat man suddenly saw something, "Huh? "Yes.
Then he squatted down, squinted his eyes and looked carefully at the bell on the waist of the figurine, and said silently, and then said "piu piu" twice to Zhang Qixun and the little brother.
Zhang Qixun came back to his senses from his thoughts, and when he heard this, he immediately walked over with the little brother.
"Look at this, you just say it's not wonderful, it's not wonderful!"
The fat man pointed to the pattern on the bell hanging from the waist of the figurine, where there was a cluster of small fire patterns, which blended perfectly into those intricate patterns.
The fat man's fiery eyes are really not covered, and if ordinary people don't look closer, they can't see the clues on it at all.
Zhang Qixun patted the fat man's shoulder and gave a thumbs up silently.
The fat man flew his eyebrows, and when he turned his head to look at the Huo family who were eager to remove a layer of wall skin in the stone room and take it away, his face immediately lengthened, "Pat and pat it, Du Teniang has turned over and over for eight hundred times, and the shooting is endless, hurry up and pick it up, flash people." β
"I've been in the nest here for so long, and the fat man's stomach is going to be hungry." As soon as the words fell, the fat man's bulging belly cooed twice.
Although there is food in the backpack on the back, the fat man can't eat it, he is afraid that his stomach will stand up after a while, and he will go directly to the card when he passes the thief hole.
Seeing this, the Huo family did not dare to delay any longer.
The main reason is that I am afraid that these three big guys will be annoyed, and people will pat their butts and turn around and leave, in case there is something here that they can't handle, it will not be good.
After staying for about ten minutes, the Huo family returned the same way under the leadership of Zhang Qixun and the others.
Huo Jinqiu took the two Huo family members at the end, and after waiting for the people in front to climb over, he knocked down a few rock samples in the passage with a pickaxe, and went out to do expansion research.
The passage here is too narrow, if Mrs. Huo really gets a lot of age and crawls around in it, then they don't have to eat this bowl of rice, just roll up and leave.
Still the same as before, Huo Zhizhi went to the old lady's tent to report the situation, and then sent the photo to the bottom of the mountain to the side of Siguniang Mountain.
This is the last password, and everyone's mood is obviously much more excited than before.
Huo Jinqiu took people and various tools into the cave again, and people went in and out to carry gravel.
The fat man listened to the tattoo master's instructions and smeared medicine on his back every day, and the two clouds had already scabbed over in less than two days.
One of the playful little clouds is white, representing clouds, and the other is a little bigger, representing fat people.
Zhang Qixun and the little brother sat under the shade of the tree holding the fat man's perfect tonic soup, and when they were in a daze at the sky, the fat man rubbed the satellite phone and the cloud pot porridge in Hangzhou from Huo Zhizhi's hand every day, and his face was like touching honey, and his face was full of red light.
Zhang Qixun leaned against the tree, hugged his arms, bent one leg, looked up at the blue sky, squinted his eyes slightly, and wondered if he had missed anything else.
The gifts for the fat man and Panzi and their marriage have already been prepared separately, and they are all put in the safe in his house, and he will let Wu Xiaoxie send them out on his behalf when the time comes.
Part of his own plan was also written on paper in encrypted language, and placed in the white wood carved box left for Pan Zi, and the translation trick of the secret language was the set that Wu Sansheng had taught Wu Xiaoxie to split the font, and it only took some time to solve it all.
There are also some account property transfer agreements, he has already prepared, just waiting for Wu Xiaoxie and the fat man to sign, the house in Hangzhou he plans to leave to the little brother for the elderly, if he can't use it, he can also sell it.
There are more than 100 antique bottles in the underground warehouse in the house, which are reserved for Pan Zi, although Pan Zi said that he wants to retire, but Zhang Qixun knows in his heart that he is used to this line of work, and it will take a long time to really retire, at least when Wu Xiaoxie can afford the burden even if he does not wear the mask of the third master, otherwise Pan Zi himself will not be at ease in the first place.
There were also bits and pieces of things that he wrote down on stationery.
After the little brother recovered his memory, he went to the bronze gate, Wu Xiaoxiao and the fat man were sad for a while, and the passage of time and the busyness of life will always dilute everything.
After going through it from beginning to end, he found that there was nothing missing, and Zhang Qixun was relieved.
Originally, he came under the banner of looking for his father, but he didn't expect to be mixed into a more complicated mystery in the end, and learned from Huo Xiangu that his father did have this person, Zhang Qixun thought about it carefully, and it seemed that there were not too many regrets.
Thinking about it, Zhang Qixun's eyelids became heavier and heavier, and finally fell asleep directly in a daze.
The little brother stared sideways at his face for a while, not knowing what he was thinking, and then got up lightly, quietly left the tree, and went to the tent where Huo Xiangu was discussing.
Huo Xiangu was discussing things with her subordinates, and when she saw the little brother suddenly appear, a trace of surprise flashed on her face, and she immediately waved her hand to let those people go down.
"Is there something wrong with you?" Huo Xiangu poured a cup of tea for the little brother and pushed it over.
The little brother stared at the cup of tea for a few seconds, and then said, "You will die." β
Huo Xiangu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "I know that as long as Zhang Qixun can bring out the contents and hand them over to Xiuxiu, then my death will be worth it." β
The little brother's expression was still cold, "No one can take out the things inside." β
Huo Xiangu's expression changed slightly, and she hesitated: "You are, have you remembered something?" β
