Chapter 40: The Land of Immortality

The fat man spat in the direction where the mandrill left, "Damn, these turtle sons are quite smart, and they know that Dark Chen Cang is here to calculate people." ”

Wu Xie also breathed a sigh of relief, put the small remote control back in his pocket, and said to Dafu: "Collect the body of Brother Tietuo, if you have any requirements, just mention it, I can't live with Brother Tietong." ”

Dafu choked up with grief and said: "Thank you little third master, Tietuo still has a younger brother in junior high school at home, and it seems that he is about to take the high school entrance examination." ”

Wu Xie nodded, "Okay, I will talk to Xiao Jiu Ye and give him the compensation he deserves for him to finish college." ”

Dafu sighed and thanked him again and again, "Brother Tietuo has a spirit in the sky, and he will definitely be grateful to the little third master." ”

Wu Xie waved his hand, said a word of "festival mourning", and said no more.

Nie Xiaoba patted Dafu's shoulder and went with him to collect the bloody corpse of Tie Tuo.

In the scorching heat, in this wilderness, the corpses do not last long before they decay and grow maggots, and in order to prevent the living and the dead from suffering, the corpses need to be immediately incinerated and disposed of.

But when they put the scattered bones together, Daifuku was shocked to find that this corpse was not Tie Tuan!

"This, this, this...... What's going on? Is Tietuo still alive? Daifuku couldn't believe it, and hurriedly picked up the remaining half-pulled cheeks on the corpse's head to confirm.

When Wu Xie heard this, he immediately took a water bladder over, unscrewed it and poured water on his face to rinse, "Take a closer look, this person is really not an iron lump?" ”

Daifuku hurriedly wiped the blood off the corpse's face with water, and repeatedly confirmed that there was no familiar black mole on the root of the man's sideburns, and immediately cried with joy.

"It's not an iron lump, it's really not an iron lump, I grew up playing with mud with him when I was a child, he has a finch here, it was pierced by a flying nail when he was a carpentry apprentice when he was a child, and then the wound healed and left a little black mark, I remember it very clearly."

The fat man also leaned over to look at it and asked, "If it's not Brother Tietuo, who would it be?" Where did the Tietuo brothers go again? ”

As he spoke, he groaned, "Those monkeys aren't going to take the Tietuo brothers back to their nest as a reserve of food." ”

Wu Xie immediately said: "Spread out to find it, if the iron lump is thrown here by them, it will definitely not be too far from the camp." ”

The crowd divided into two groups and searched the neighborhood without any trace.

"It's numb." The fat man couldn't help but burst into foul language, "In the end, we still lose." ”

Wu Xie said a few words to calm everyone's emotions, and at this moment, Luo Wenbing, who had been stunned before, woke up slowly, rubbed his head and sat up, and rolled his eyes at the unknown corpse with blurred flesh and blood by the fire, and was about to faint.

The fat man pinched the Hegu point of his tiger's mouth with one hand, pinched the middle of the other man with the other, and worked hard, "Damn, you kid hurry up and wake up Lao Tzu, if you don't wake up, the big-eared melon seeds will whip you." ”

Luo Wenbing took a breath of cold air into his trachea and woke up immediately.

The fat man rudely pulled him to the corpse and urged: "Keep your eyes open, do you recognize this grandson?" ”

Luo Wenbing and the bloody and blurred face came to an intimate face-to-face, the bloody gas on the face suddenly impacted, the stomach suddenly surged, the originally paralyzed body suddenly had strength, he immediately pushed the fat man away, ran to the side of the tree and squatted and vomited, and all the mutton that had not been completely digested after eating it at night was vomited, and only bitter sour water was left in the end.

When Nie Xiaoba handed over the water, he saw Luo Wenbing squatting there sobbing and crying quietly, "Mom, it's really good, I don't want to make a fortune, I just want to go home......"

Nie Xiaoba patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "Okay, don't cry and cry anymore, you've come to this point, how can you go back alone, aren't you afraid that the spicy black monkey will take you away halfway?" ”

Luo Wenbing's voice sobbed for a moment, and the next moment, the crying voice was even louder, "If you do it together, you will die, then I will die closer to the house, in case any kind person encounters me, I can still clean up my skull and cha cha bones, hard, big monkeys, they will definitely not be able to chew." ”

After speaking, he turned over, wiped his tears with his sleeve, patted the soil on Kexi Poleng'er, and was about to take his things and leave.

Wu Xie waved his hand, and Nie Xiaoba and the others automatically surrounded them.

Luo Wenbing tightened the strap of his backpack with some fear, and bluffed loudly: "You want to do it?" Climb away, I'm going to break up with you! ”

"Can't you understand Sa's?" Seeing that they were indifferent, Luo Wenbing said angrily, "Climb away, I don't want to tell you how much spicy it is, today I hit this ravine and ravine, you don't know me, I don't know you, so I should never see it." ”

Wu Xie raised his eyelids and looked at him gently, but the words that came out of his mouth made people feel chills down his spine, "I'm afraid not, at least until we come out of the tomb, you can't leave, either continue to walk down with us, and we will try our best to keep you, or, you can only become a handful of grass ashes here, and people outside will never know that you died here, at most they will think that you are missing." ”

Luo Wenbing was so scared that he was going to die, his mouth was trembling uncontrollably, he wanted to say that you don't dare to do this, killing people is a crime.

But facing Wu Xie's indifferent eyes, he immediately realized that this group of people was not joking, once they didn't follow their ideas, they would really die here quietly, and the rotten flesh on the ground was still bloody there.

Even if he was aggrieved in his heart, Luo Wenbing didn't dare to make a mistake, so he could only cry silently in his heart, what kind of sin did he create, so that he would meet such a group of crooked pistachios who regard human life as a mustard.

Wu Xie patted him on the shoulder kindly, "That's right, oh yes, just now, I was just joking with you, I hope you don't mind, after all, we are good citizens who abide by the law, and we are here just to find something." ”

Luo Wenbing pulled the corners of his mouth stiffly, and squeezed out a smile with difficulty, "I know, I know, if you organize the Sazi thing, I will not see it." ”

Wu Xie smiled incomprehensibly, pointed to the corpse on the ground, and said, "You have suffered with us, and I want to trouble you to identify this person, you must take a closer look." ”

What else could Luo Wenbing say, he could only nod his head and say yes, endure the feeling of nausea, and cover his nose and approach the corpse to see.

The fat man next to him secretly poked at Wu Xie and gave a thumbs up, and said in a low voice: "You kid has learned a lot from that blind man, and the momentum that just scared people was pressed out, and I didn't dare to say anything about the fat man." ”

Wu Xie waved his hand indifferently, "Compared with the blind man, it is far worse, so it is useful to deal with people like him who have little knowledge and experience." ”

On the other side, Luo Wenbing endured his nausea and looked at the corpse's face carefully, looked at it, and said with some doubts: "What does this person look like, it seems to be that Li Shengbao, wait for me to take a steady look." ”

As he spoke, he picked up a stick from his feet and tossed the other crumbling arm on the corpse, turning it over.

When everyone looked at it, the tail finger of the left hand on that arm was missing.

Luo Wenbing pointed to the missing gap and said: "The face is rotten like that, I can't see clearly, I don't know if it's not, but look at that one-sided thumb, it's just broad, Li Shengbao's turtle was a rotten person when he was a young man, and everything was dirty, I heard that his was cut with a firewood knife when his father forced him to quit gambling." ”

It seems that the group of wild lamas who took the lead under the leadership of Li Shengbao have already encountered an accident.

Daifuku and another fellow put the body in a body bag and moved it to a distant place to burn it.

The two watched from a distance, and waited until the last trace of fire disappeared, and then poured water on the ashes to extinguish the fire completely, and then dug and buried it, so as not to burn again and set the forest on fire, which would be a great sin.

To make a long story short, in the next three days, Wu Xie and the others did not encounter any monkeys again, and it seemed that the mandrill really obeyed its reputation and did not come to harass them again.

They climbed to the mountainside part of Jigongliangzi, and the scenery here is too beautiful to describe.

The yellow flower meadows all over the mountains are vibrant and endless, and such a dense sea of natural flowers once thought that they would only appear in cartoons.

After that, there is the sea of clouds, all the flowers bloom in the clouds, the clouds ripple with the wind, when they blow over, the whole sea of flowers is like a silent ridge, very ghostly, the visibility of the whole sea of flowers under the clouds is less than three meters, and the distance between people is a little farther, and they will be submerged in it.

And when the clouds leave, the clouds see the sun, the sun falls directly like a waterfall, the golden sea of flowers unfolds endlessly, and all the flowers are instantly bright and dazzling, just like the Buddha's light shines.

The fat man sighed that this was a miracle of nature, and asked Wu Xie for a camera to shoot all of this.

Wu Xie asked him, "What are you doing with this?" ”

The fat man said without hesitation: "Take a picture and make an album, keep it for the two of them to see later, and the name will be, 'I have taken pictures of the scenery you have not seen before'." ”

Wu Xie took out the camera and handed it to the fat man, silently watching him keep taking pictures as if he was having fun among the flowers.

When everyone was tired of walking, they also stopped to rest.

Wu Xie sat in the gap between the flowers, quietly looking up at the sky obliquely, one after another golden corolla smeared in the sunlight with a blurred outline, separating the sky from the mountains and the earth.

From this direction to the direction where they were finally going, black clouds lay low on the top of the mountain, and a thick fog shrouded the mountain where the monkeys robbed the tomb, which had no name, and only the area of the mountain where it was raining.

The sea of flowers is on the mountainside, and from the mountainside downward, you enter the river valley, and in the river valley there are endless primeval forests, and near evening, the cries of night owls come and go.

The fat man came back in a hurry and told Wu Xie that he had found a strange hilltop in the forest on the edge of the river valley, which looked like a land temple from a distance.

That direction was exactly the direction they were going, and everyone no longer hesitated, and quickly walked there with their equipment on their backs.

When I got closer, I found an old tomb, which can't be regarded as an ancient tomb, but it should be a long time, Wu Xie went to see the tombstone standing next to the tomb and was covered by wild grass and fallen leaves, the text on it was blurry and couldn't be seen clearly, and it could only be roughly speculated that this should be something before liberation.

The surface of the burial mound is made of many irregular stone slabs, which are covered with moss.

The fat man shone a flashlight and muttered, "Lonely grave wild ghost, it turns out that there really are lonely graves in the world." ”

Wu Xixin said that this is too lonely, who is this person and why is he buried here?

Human beings must live in groups, and tombs are even more so, such as such a remote place where human hair can't be found, such a strange tomb suddenly appeared, which is somewhat strange.

The fat man was not interested in this old tomb, so he walked directly around the ancient temple that could vaguely see the edge of the back, and just walked out of two steps, the soles of his feet suddenly fell, and he almost fell on his stomach.

"What the hell stumbled on the fat man's feet." The fat man propped up on the grass mound with one hand crookedly, scolding.

Nie Xiaoba hurriedly came over to help him up, and the two of them took off their backpacks and squatted down to look at the thing.

The fat man recognized it at a glance as a petrified bone, and judging by the regular circle, it was probably a skull.

"Fatty, what did you find?" Wu Xie also walked over.

"Something good." The fat man smiled, untied the sapper shovel hanging from his backpack, and dug at the place.

After digging a few times, there was a clang, and the shovel head cut something hard.

Seeing this, the fat man moved back a little and continued to dig down, and Nie Xiaoba was also on the side to help.

Ten minutes later, they stood in a large pit with a diameter of two meters, and in the center of the pit there was a stone tablet that looked like a door, and the top of the stone tablet was a triangular protrusion, and the skull found by the fat man was inserted into it.

The stele is about more than a meter high, and there is a circle of relief carvings like door frames on the side, and in the center is carved a snake-tailed scorpion that has been corroded and blurred.

The fat man took off the skull and checked it in his hand, "Innocent, this thing doesn't look like a human head, you look at this big tooth, it's as sharp as an awl." ”

Wu Xie took the skull and looked at it, nodding, "It's a monkey." ”

Generally speaking, the monkey's skull structure and facial face are more convex, while the human is more flat, the monkey's nasal bone is lower and wider, while the human's is higher, and the monkey's mandible is also very different from the human's, rough and wide, while the human's is relatively narrow.

The fat man guessed, "Could it be that the old grave is not actually buried with a human, but a monkey?" ”

"If it's a monkey, the question is, who buried that monkey here." Wu Xie said slowly, "Although this stele is very close to the old tomb, the time that the stele has been standing here is obviously much older than the old tomb. ”

The fat man still felt a little strange, "You said it's good, what are you doing here?" ”

Wu Xie stretched out his hand and pointed to the bottom line of small characters on the stone stele, "Look at this, it says, Immortal Kingdom." ”

The fat man suddenly understood, "Did we find the entrance to the Gu King's Underground Burial Temple by mistake?" The ancient temple we saw just now could it be the place we were looking for. ”
