Chapter 6: Malice
"Don't move!"
I grabbed Xu Jinxiu with one hand, and waved my other hand behind me to stop the people behind me.
Everyone suddenly didn't even dare to breathe, looked at me, and then looked ahead.
The screams in front of him were intermittent, and it was Liu Bao's voice.
I squinted my eyes and looked ahead, only to see the light in front of me flickering, getting brighter and closer.
Liu Bao stumbled back in a strange posture, facing away from us, all the way backwards.
As he moved, the air in the tomb flowed, and I suddenly felt a slight prickly sensation on the skin on my face, as if it had been burned by something.
Liu Bao soon arrived in front of him, and while letting out an inhuman scream, he kept pulling around his face with his hands, trying to remove something from his face.
Still clutching a flashlight in his hand.
The electric light flickered, illuminating clearly in front of him, and there was nothing there!
"It's over, Liu Bao has suffered 'no face'!" Behind me, Liu Siyuan couldn't help but exclaim.
Xu Jinxiu turned her head to look at me, her face pale.
For her, this pot was too unsmooth, she had just gone to the ground, and she met a ghost after a few steps!
I frowned, disapproving.
But I didn't care about explaining, I dragged Xu Jinxiu behind me, stepped forward by myself, and blocked Liu Bao.
Although this Liu Bao is strong, he is not tall.
As soon as I reached out, I grabbed his shoulder, tugged and pushed, and turned the person over to face me.
Then he lifted the flashlight and shone it directly into Liu Bao's eyes.
Before Liu Bao could react, his whole face was suddenly illuminated white, and several hideous blood marks lay in the center of that face, scarlet and shocking!
"What's that?" Xu Jinxiu also saw it behind me, and blurted out,
The tone is frightened, afraid that it is really a ghost.
Then this trip will be dangerous.
I frowned, didn't answer immediately, and only asked Liu Bao:
"Did you run into anything up ahead?"
Liu Bao is not a soft egg, he seemed to be just in pain just now, and after being shaken by me, he has come back to his senses, and he only gasped for a while before he froze.
"Neither do the ghost hair." Liu Bao said and spat on the ground, "As I walked, there was no road ahead, and suddenly my face was as if I had been scratched, and the fire was burning." β
"Holy, Yin Wind! Brother, are you scratched by a ghost? "Liu Siyuan, this guy probed his brain from behind me again, fanning the flames.
Liu Bao's face was not very good at that time, and he was so painful that he inhaled cold air while glancing at me with his eyes.
"Chen Changyan, do you think this road can be walked or not? We all listen to you. β
This is to provoke me with words, which means that this is the way you chose, and you have to be responsible for any problems.
Xu Jinxiu's expression was a little fixed, and she looked at me with concern, waiting for me to give me an idea.
"Go, what's not to go? There is the entrance to the tomb in front of us. β
Seeing that my tone was firm, Xu Jinxiu breathed a sigh of relief, but Liu Bao was unmoved.
"How to get there? How do you know that the tomb is ahead? β
I shook my head and sneered, "Let me ask you, did you feel a gust of wind just now, and then you were scratched?" β
Liu Bao was unimpressed at first, and then as soon as he thought about it, the expression on his face loosened a little.
He didn't speak, but I could see the change in expression.
When I saw Liu Bao returning, I already had a guess in my heart, and now it has been confirmed.
"The air is not circulating underground, where does the wind come from? There must be a wide space ahead, for the hole we have opened has formed a convection current with the air outside. What is that not a tomb? β
After listening to my words, Xu Jinxiu's face was clear, and he was completely calm, but he still asked, "But what's the matter with this scratch?" Even if there is miasma in the tomb, it will not be so powerful. β
I nodded, Xu Jinxiu has seen a lot of people, and even if I haven't seen the burial organs in the north and south, I've heard of some, and this guess is not far from ten.
"You take it." I handed the flashlight to Xu Jinxiu and asked her to help carry it, then took out a lighter from my pocket, tore a piece of paper from my notebook, lit it, and held it in the air.
Sneerββ!
The paper burned rapidly, emitting a bright flame, the flame was bright yellow, and instantly illuminated a small patch of darkness.
I gently waved the note so that it came into contact with something floating in the air.
Sure enough, the flames seemed to ignite something, and many small sparks suddenly erupted around them, crackling and making a subtle popping sound, which could be heard clearly in the silence!
Liu Bao and the others were all breathing, as if they suddenly didn't know whether to continue breathing.
"Poison spores. This is a spore of a poisonous plant. The note burned to ashes in an instant, and I shook my hand and retrieved the flashlight.
"It must have been brought out of the tomb by the wind when we opened the tomb. Mixed with miasma, it blows and melts, which can erode through cowhide, not to mention human skin. I glanced at Liu Bao.
Liu Bao's expression was stunned for a moment, Xu Jinxiu hurriedly asked him to find Da Lian, and asked her to treat the wound and disinfect it with alcohol.
"Fortunately, the concentration here is not high, and it's fine, but to move forward, something must be done. This old tomb is prone to the accumulation of corpse gas and poisonous gas, so let's put on a gas mask. β
In the past, there was no protective measure, and when you went to the grave, you took a sparrow and put it in a birdcage, and when you left, the bird was in front and the person was behind.
Birds' lungs are small and sensitive to poisons in the air, so they can detect something wrong before a human. If the bird suddenly makes a noise, the person covers his mouth and nose with a damp cloth and continues walking; If the bird dies suddenly, then it can't move forward half a step anyway, and the trip will be in vain.
However, now that technology is advanced, there is no need for such means.
When I went to the tomb just now, just in case, Da Lian prepared gas masks in the carry-on equipment for everyone, just in case.
At this time, they listened to my instructions and quickly put them on.
After checking each other, they were still in the same formation as just now, with Liu Bao taking the lead, Cui Yong breaking off, Xu Jinxiu, Da Lian and Liu Siyuan in the middle surrounded me, and everyone continued to move forward.
Behind the gas mask, my expression became solemn when no one was looking.
This tomb is really a bit evil.
It's just a matter of choosing a good position, this is human nature.
Tomb feng shui pays attention to "ten non-burial", site selection requirements are quite many, the more tricky the location of the tomb, the more prominent the identity of the tomb owner may be, the bigger the "stuffing" in the tomb.
It's just that this poisonous spore shows a kind of yin poison.
Eight hundred miles of Qinling Mountains are rich in species, but after all, it is still in the Central Plains, this tomb is located in Shanyin, belonging to the north, there is no plant with this poisonous spores, and it is impossible to grow naturally in the underground tomb.
The only explanation, it's something artificially implanted.
The owner of the tomb put this kind of invisible and colorless thing that melts into the wind at the sight of the wind, but is extremely lethal, in his tomb.
The purpose is very clear, that is, to prevent theft.
We haven't even arrived at the main tomb, and we haven't even seen the broken mountain stone, but we have already seen the malicious intent of the tomb owner, and I'm afraid it's just a drop in the bucket.
I don't know what is more dangerous waiting for me yet.
The three claw marks on Liu Bao's face, although they were not ghostly scratches, were exactly the deceased's declaration to our group of uninvited guests:
Grave robbers, die!
