Chapter 5 The Coffin
In the early morning, the sun rises in the east, and a round of red sun slowly breaks through the clouds, and the light shines on the earth.
There was a dagger and a flashlight falling from the top of the mountain, and there were some chaotic footprints on the edge of the cliff, which Wu Hou had left before he fell down the mountain last night. The white tiger did not leave, lying quietly in the shade of a tree not far away, looking up at the place where Wu Hou had fallen off the cliff.
At this time, Wu Hou was unconscious on a large stone protruding from the mountainside.
Coincidentally, after Wu Hou fell off the cliff, he first landed on the wild tree that grew horizontally, and the tree slowed down the speed of Wu Hou's body falling, and then fell on this big rock.
Located on the southern slope of Pinghuang Mountain, the sun gradually shifted to the south as time passed, and the scorching sun shone on the unconscious Wu Hou. Wu Hou's clothes were all soaked with sweat, his hair was also wet, and a trace of sweat could be seen on his scalp in the sun.
A drop of sweat slipped from his forehead and stuck to Wu Hou's eyelashes, Wu Hou, who had his eyes closed, moved his eyes slightly, and gradually woke up.
The first thing I felt was the pain all over my body, the sweat flowing into the part of my body that was scratched by the branches, and Wu Hou, who was in pain, grinned his teeth. He sat up slowly, leaning against the mountain wall, snorting and panting. He had just woken up and began to try to remember what happened last night.
Wu Hou remembered that he encountered a tiger, which was white, and it was about to attack him, but he accidentally fell off the cliff in a panic because he was afraid. When he fell off the cliff, he saw a tree in a hazy way, and he hit it headlong, and then he didn't remember anything, until he was awake now.
Thinking of Wu Hou here, he looked up and looked up, and sure enough, a few meters above, there was a wild tree growing horizontally. If you look up, you can see the top of the mountain, and you are at a position that is 50 meters away from the top of the mountain.
This is really a blessing in misfortune, Wu Hou thought in his heart.
But it's not a way to stay here all the time, if you don't starve, you will die of thirst. With the scorching sun on his head, his lips were dry, and he was thirsty. "No, we have to find a way to go back. Wu Hou, who was sitting, muttered to himself.
So he began to look around for something he could use, but after looking around, he was disappointed. The big rock could only hold a few people, and there was nothing but a few gravels. Looking up at the top of the mountain dozens of meters away, the bare mountain wall has no place to put your feet, and it is impossible to climb it. If you look down, you can't see the ground, and even if you do, you can't just jump off it.
Wu Hou, who was disappointed, sighed, wondering if his grandfather could find him, but looking at the hot sun in the sky, his stomach also rumbled at this time, and he really didn't know if he could wait until his grandfather found him. Besides, how could my grandfather know that he had fallen off a cliff?
"Am I going to die?" Wu Hou suddenly had this thought in his heart. Wu Hou, who has nothing to do, never thought that one day he would be so close to death.
"I'm really unwilling!" Wu Hou, who was seated, arched his legs and kicked hard at a brick-sized gravel next to him.
The strength of this kick was very strong, Wu Hou thought that the stone would be kicked away, but the stone did not move at all, but it hurt Wu Hou's feet.
Wu Hou cursed the damn stone again and again, but he didn't expect this stone to be connected to the big stone under his buttocks, such a hard stone, he kicked it with all his strength, how much it hurt, you can imagine.
Wu Hou, who was rubbing his feet, couldn't help but look at this small stone, and always felt that something was wrong. He leaned to the side, brushed aside the other rubble around the stone with his hands, and looked closely, and found that the bottom of the stone and the large stone under his buttocks did not fit perfectly. There is a gap of about a centimeter between this stone and the large stone under the buttocks.
Wu Hou wondered in his heart, since it was not connected, why couldn't he kick it? Could it be that there was a bone in the middle? He didn't believe it, so he touched it with his hand, swaying left and right, and the stone didn't move at all.
"It's weird. Wu Hou had a question in his heart, but he couldn't find an answer, so he slapped the stone with his hand angrily.
"Smack. ”
The bottom of the small gravel and the big stone under Wu Hou's ass fit together, making a crunch sound.
Wu Hou looked at the stone in a daze, and before he had time to think about it, a small stone wall behind him suddenly made a sound, and gradually moved to the side, revealing a hole. This surprised Wu Hou, and said in his mouth: "Good girl, there is a mechanism!"
After waiting for a while, he saw that nothing had crawled out of the cave, so he had the courage to "feed" it inside. There was an echo of "Hey" from inside, but nothing else could be heard. Wu Hou was a bold boy after all, and he couldn't help but be curious, so he decided to climb in to see what was going on.
The entrance to the cave was not big, and Wu Hou knelt down before he barely climbed in. When I came in, I found that it was a long tunnel, and the front of the tunnel was pitch black, and I couldn't see my fingers, but I could only see this section by the sunlight outside. At the moment, I remembered my flashlight, if only it were still there.
Wu Hou, who was groping his way forward in the hole, felt more and more pain in his knees and palms because of the contact with the gravel ground. I don't know how long it took to climb, but Wu Hou finally saw the light and climbed out of the tunnel.
After leaving the tunnel, Wu Hou went to a very large stone chamber, which was dark and damp, with only two oil lamps, which were lit on two candlesticks of equal height, and the flickering flames were gently swaying and never extinguished. In the middle of the two candlesticks, about two zhang wide, there is a sarcophagus here.
Wu Hou saw the sarcophagus and thought: I'm afraid I didn't enter someone's tomb.
In modern times, breaking into the dwelling of the dead is a great bad luck, which is not only disrespectful to the dead, but also ominous to oneself.
Wu Hou, who felt fear, turned around and was about to climb out, but before he entered the tunnel, he heard a "knock knock" sound from the sarcophagus, like a knock on the door, and like a hallucination. He was stunned and continued to climb into the tunnel, but at this time, the sound of "dong dong" sounded again. This time, Wu Hou confirmed that the sound of "dong dong dong" came from the sarcophagus.
He looked at the sarcophagus in horror, and felt extremely frightened in his heart. How could there be a noise in the sarcophagus? Is there anyone in the sarcophagus? Oh no, is there a ghost?" Wu Hou kept thinking in his heart. If it's a ghost, you don't need to knock on the door, right? Is it a human? But if it's a human, how can it be here? What kind of person could it be? A series of questions came up, and the trembling Wu Hou slowly walked towards the sarcophagus.
He stretched out his trembling arms, pressed them firmly against the coffin board, and with enough strength, he fiercely pushed the coffin board back, and the sarcophagus was opened a gap. Wu Hou, who was still pushing the coffin board with his head down, didn't notice it, and above his head, a big hand stretched out from the sarcophagus and pressed it on the edge of the sarcophagus.
As Wu Hou gradually opened the coffin, a terrifying scene happened. I saw a figure, holding on to the edge of the sarcophagus, sitting up silently.
As soon as Wu Hou, who pushed off the coffin board, raised his head, he saw such a figure in the sarcophagus, and his head was instantly blank. "Ahh
Wu Hou, who was frightened, wanted to find the tunnel entrance and climb out, but because he was nervous, he couldn't find the tunnel entrance, so he had to keep running and turning in circles while screaming "Ahh
"Don't be afraid, little doll. The figure sitting up from the coffin made a magnetic sound.
"Ahh
The figure let out a soft laugh.
"Hehe, hehehe. ”
This smile made Wu Hou feel a chill down his spine, and it was extremely terrifying!
The figure looked at Wu Hou, who kept circling around the stone room, and got up helplessly and jumped out of the sarcophagus. He walked not far from Wu Hou, stretched out a hand, grabbed Wu Hou who was running, glared at Wu Hou and said, "Don't be afraid, I am human." ”
Hearing this person's voice, Wu Hou struggled a few times, but he couldn't break free from the hand that was firmly grasping him, and he followed the sound to look at his face.
This is a man, of moderate stature, dressed in a beautiful dress, with black hair tied up high by a hosta, his face is pale and frightening, without a trace of blood, but his eyebrows are picturesque, as bright as the stars. A pair of thin lips were slightly upturned at this time, pulling up a graceful arc, adding an evil charm to the handsome face, as cold as autumn hoarfrost, and as warm as the south wind blowing slowly after the spring equinox. With such a beautiful and moving appearance, he has already competed with many women in the world, and it is hard to imagine that this will be a man.
Wu Hou struggled and waved his fist, hitting the man, shouting, "Let go of me!
The man didn't care about Wu Hou's fist on his body, and tried his best to tell Wu Hou in a gentle voice: "Little doll, don't be afraid, I am a human, not a ghost." ”
"You let go of me first! let go of me!" Wu Hou still shouted.
The man asked, "You can let go, but don't yell, okay?"
Wu Hou's eyes rolled around a few times, and he nodded, "Okay." ”
The man hummed and put Wu Hou down. But who knew that Wu Hou, who had just landed, ran away, and ran towards the entrance of the tunnel as fast as a rabbit, ready to get into it and leave this ghost place quickly.
But Wu Hou, who was about to drill into the tunnel, was pulled back by a strange force. I saw Wu Hou's body, from mid-air, as if it was supported by something invisible, floated strangely in front of the man, and fell to the ground again, and Wu Hou screamed out "oops".
"Don't run again. The man said solemnly.
The frightened Wu Hou nodded hurriedly, and said in his mouth: "Don't run, don't run." Then he moved back a few meters, not daring to get too close to the man.
The man was sure that Wu Hou would not run again, so he didn't care about him anymore, but walked around the stone room, his hands tapping on the stone wall, as if he was looking for something. After walking around and finding nothing, the man held his forehead with one hand and said to himself: "I'm afraid that the years are too long, and the main gate is broken." ”
Then he walked to the sarcophagus, pulled out a crate under the sarcophagus, tapped his fingers on the cassett, and with a few sounds, the cassette was opened, but there was nothing inside.
The man's brows furrowed, and he could see that he was a little unhappy at the moment. Then he walked to the side of the tunnel that Wu Hou had just wanted to get into, squatted down to observe the tunnel, looked at it for a while, and sneered: "What a tomb robber, it has stolen me." ”
He got up and returned to the sarcophagus, blew out the two oil lamps, then closed the lid of the coffin, and turned to signal Wu Hou to enter the tunnel. Wu Hou obediently burrowed into the tunnel and slowly crawled forward. The man behind him took one last look at the sarcophagus and the two oil lamps with only wicks and no oil, and then burrowed into the tunnel.
