I tried hard to recall my grandfather's diary, thinking that no matter how stingy he was in pen and ink and only briefly described what he saw and heard in the tomb, there should be some record of such an important discovery. But it's a pity that I have recalled it for a long time and still can't recall any relevant records.
"Did grandpa never come here at all?" I couldn't help but wonder, thinking that the location where I was now might not be the Han tomb that grandpa visited back then, but a third dimension that had not been discovered.
But then I thought about it and thought it was impossible. The reasonable explanation should be that we and grandpa took different paths, and he might not have made it here. After calming down for a while, I carefully observed the male corpse, but I always felt uncomfortable somewhere.
It took me a long time to realize that, looking through the eye holes of his pure steel mask, the eyes of the corpse inside were actually open, and those two eyes were staring at me coldly. The hair on the head stands on end!
I didn't dare to stare and turned my head quickly. Who would have thought that it would be okay if it didn't change, but something would happen if it changed. I turned my head and happened to see a hanging vine behind me. My eyes were pierced by the thing on it, and I couldn't help but take a breath of air.
I saw a mummy hanging on the vine. It was completely skinny and bones, and it was covered with a layer of green moss. It was unknown how many years it had been hanging like this. And I looked up along the vines, and as far as I could see, there were all kinds of corpses hanging there, with no end in sight.
It is not an exaggeration to say that there are hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands. These corpses swayed in the wind, looking like wind chimes made of many bones, which sent chills down your spine.
I took a closer look and found that there were some human beings and some animals inside. Most of them had been completely dried, and a few of them were also very rotten. A foul smell came from time to time in the air. And corpses of all sizes crowded on these corpses like flies and gnawed on them, including many strange-faced insects.
"Fuck." I knew in my heart that I was surrounded by thousands of insects. If they pounced on me all at once, I wouldn't even have a place to run. I might soon become one of these mummy wind chimes.
As for luck, sometimes you just have to be afraid of whatever comes your way. I just had a thought when suddenly, a strange-faced bug raised its snake-like tail. It seemed to sense the presence of prey and immediately crawled towards me.
I had a premonition that something was bad and hurriedly avoided it. But the bottom of this cliff is a cage, and I have nowhere to escape. The strange-faced insect moved quickly, jumped hard, and rushed towards me with a "swish". This thing not only looks like a face, but even when it attacks, it always targets the face.
In an instant, I saw a black object as big as my face covering my face. In panic, I must have tried every means to get this guy away. It just so happened that the male corpse had a sword on his waist. So, I didn't care about anything and just got over it.
To say that this sword is indeed a good sword, stainless steel for thousands of years, extremely sharp, it split the strange-faced insect in half with one strike. But before I could take a breath, two more strange-faced bugs pounced on me.
Perhaps because the sword strike just now gave me courage, I took my time and struck straight through them with one strike, skewering the two strange-faced bugs into sugar-coated haws. But before I could feel happy, a gust of wind blew behind me. I turned around in a hurry, but it was too late. I saw a piece of Tai Sui hit me hard on the back, just like a spinning top, knocking me around in circles.
It was supposed to be a sneak attack, but unfortunately, I stumbled and threw myself towards the female corpse on the jade bed.
"Fuck..." Due to too much inertia, it was no longer possible for me to keep a distance from the female corpse. My face was completely pressed against hers, and I felt so cold that the hairs on my body stood up.
I was stunned at that time, already anticipating whether a tongue would stick out from her mouth, insert it directly into my throat, and suck out all my internal organs. Thinking of this, I felt lucky. Fortunately, it was a female ghost and she looked pretty good. It would have been disgusting if it had been a male ghost.
But after staying there for half a day, no tongues were seen sticking out. I thought that I was lucky after all. I met a kind host who responded politely, so I slowly raised my head and wanted to sneak away. I only raised my head halfway when a sudden gust of fragrant wind blew my head. The two arms of the female corpse suddenly put their hands on my shoulders!
I was stunned, and my whole body was frozen with fear.
At this time, the corpse next to me also made a thumping sound. When I heard something bad, I screamed in my heart: "Brother, it's your wife who won't let me leave now. It's not that I'm frivolous towards her. Don't make a mistake!"
When he turned around, he saw that I had pulled out the sword with too much force and had knocked off a piece of his armor. I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The only thing I can be thankful for now is that it was this female corpse riding on me instead of the monster next door, otherwise I would have peed my pants.
The stalemate lasted for more than ten seconds, and seeing that she made no further movements, I couldn't help but want to sneak my head out from under her arm. But as soon as she moved, her hand also moved with my neck. When I moved forward, she moved forward, and when I moved back, she moved back. My heart skipped a beat, and I raised my neck suddenly, pulling her to sit up. And with a shock, the female corpse's mouth opened, revealing something she had in her mouth.
I looked down and saw that it was a brass key.
"What's going on?" I was a little confused. Judging from the shape, this brass key should be a set of Yan Yunshu's. Except for some differences in details, everything else is very similar. It can be basically determined. It's the same set of keys.
"It's strange. Didn't Lao Ji say that only the Canglong Qisu Key can open the Qiqiao Exquisite Lock? Why is there a key in the tomb? Isn't it deliberately not asking anyone to open it." I couldn't help but think about it.
Most people would take it for granted that the owner of the tomb would not want anyone to disturb him after he was buried in peace, so it is very reasonable to hide the key to the Qiqiao exquisite lock in the tomb. But the reality is exactly the opposite. The reason why the owner of the tomb set up the Qiqiao exquisite lock was actually to intentionally leave an opportunity to open the ancient tomb. Of course, this is definitely not for tomb robbers like us, but for the people he hopes to enter. Generally speaking, Said that the most likely ones are his descendants.
"It seems that the owner of this tomb must have left some treasure for his descendants, so he hid the key to unlocking the Seven Skills Lock here." I murmured to myself.
Thinking of this, my mind was suddenly stirred by something, and I suddenly realized something, "No, could it be that this place isn't..."
I suddenly realized that if the owner of the tomb deliberately hid the key here and left it for future generations to open the tomb, it means that the place where I am now is not in a real Han tomb. Otherwise, how would his descendants obtain this key?
"If that's the case, then there must be another exit here." I was looking for an exit in a hurry when I suddenly heard people shouting from far away. When I looked up, I saw a man screaming and being pulled by an iron-eating Tai Sui. Hanging on top of my head.
The visitor was none other than Fatty Yu.
"Let me strangle you. What's going on with you?"
"Stop being sarcastic. I'm not here to save you. Please help me think of a way to get down!" Fatty Yu squirmed his butt in mid-air, "I'm almost strangled to death."
"Okay, just wait!"
As I said that, I picked up the sword on the ground and smiled evilly. Seeing this, Fatty Yu yelled, "Wait a minute!" But how could I give him a chance to prepare? With an "ouch", the fat man fell down and was lying on the male corpse, and even touched the male corpse. The mask was knocked off.
"Are you okay?" I just wanted to go over and pull him, but the fat man turned around and said loudly: "Don't look at it, it's a ghost-eyed grasshopper!"
It's a pity that he called him too late. As soon as I turned my head, I saw the face under the mask. Just one glance made my head buzz and my hair stood up.
"What the hell is this!" I stammered.
It turned out that underneath the mask was a pale face. But the reason why he is white is not because of his good skin color, but because his face is made of paper. To put it bluntly, he is just a paper man.
But this paper man's fault lies in his eyes. The eyes of ordinary paper figures are drawn, and they look fake at first glance. But the eyes of the paper man turned out to be the same as those of real people, as if a pair of real eyes were dug out and installed on the paper man.
Seeing the two cyan eyes glowing coldly in the two slits, my heart was beating like a drum. To be honest, I can handle normal weird things, but I really don’t dare to look at this paper man, it’s too scary. If you see it without any psychological preparation, it will probably scare people to death.
Fatty Yu was so frightened that he turned over and fell off the jade platform, saying in shock: "I can't believe that that handsome young general is actually a paper man!"
"Is this really the young general?"
"Why not? Look, Princess Jade Rabbit and the young general cannot be together during life, but they will be paired up after death. Is this the case?"
"Well...that's not necessarily the case."
Fatty Yu glanced at the armored corpse and said, "Let me tell you, this ghost-eyed grass man is not simple. A long time ago, a mountain mover dumped an ancient tomb from the Tang Dynasty and opened the coffin. I found two corpses, a man and a woman lying inside. The female body had rotted, but the male body was intact. After taking a closer look, I realized that it was a straw man. The straw man also had a pair of lifelike eyes, which looked very strange. evil nature."
"Really? What happened next?" I asked.
"It stands to reason that when encountering such a situation, you should put the things back intact, but the Taoist who moved the mountains was bent on seeking the elixir and was unwilling to do so, so he took the elixir back from the coffin. Several years later, He washed his hands and returned to his hometown to marry his wife. Later, his wife was pregnant in ten months. When the stable woman was delivering the baby to her, she suddenly screamed and fainted. The guy rushed in and took a look. It turned out that the baby his wife gave birth to was long. A pair of red eyes. The mountain-moving Taoist priest did not notice that the straw man was causing trouble at first. He only thought that the child had a strange disease and sought medical treatment everywhere. Who knew that the child's disease not only did not heal, but the skin on his body became worse and worse. The child became more and more dry and became like a paper man. At this time, the mountain-moving Taoist realized the problem, so he walked a long way back to the ancient tomb and put the elixir back. From then on, the child's illness was no longer It's getting worse, but the skin problem can't be improved no matter what."
Fatty Yu smacked his lips, "This ghost-eyed grass man is very evil. If you take one look at him, you will be infected, and his face will gradually become like his. Did you just look at it?"
Although I didn't quite believe it, I couldn't help but shudder when I heard that he would turn into this monster, and cursed: "You are blind, I have never seen it before!"
