"I have been in this tunnel several times. There are two in total. There is an open passage and a secret passage under it." Peng Delin motioned me not to go in. "Several students who came with me all died in it, or Don’t go in.”
I suddenly thought, "What? They're all dead!"
"Yes." Peng Delin shook his head and sat on the ground, "Dead, all dead, no one came out."
"Is there something in there?" I asked alertly.
"There is a gap between the two roads. It is not easy to find without walking up to it. I took my assistant into the underground passage on the lower floor. Unexpectedly, due to the lower terrain and serious water seepage, a landslide occurred and everyone was buried under the Inside."
I was about to catch my breath and thought to myself: "It doesn't look like I encountered anything. It should be nothing serious."
Suddenly, Peng Delin raised his head in fear, looked at me nervously, and said, "I ran away quickly, but when I came back, I found that there was no landslide in the passage and everyone was gone."
"Ah?" My mood took a 180-degree turn and my eyes widened. "Could it be because of the illusion?"
"Inside the Yin and Yang Gate, everything we see is true and false. To be honest, I am still doubting whether you are real." Peng Delin shook his head mockingly, "After I searched again, I was surprised to see their corpses in a tomb inside, all lying neatly on the coffins. I was so scared..."
However, this aroused my curiosity. Peng Delin couldn't resist him, so he led him forward. As Peng Delin said, the tomb was filled with coffins, but there were no bodies placed on them. I felt something was wrong, and when I took a closer look, I discovered that all the closed coffins had been opened by themselves, and the corpses were lying inside.
"This -" Peng Delin was frightened, "Let's leave quickly, this place is not clean."
I reached in to check. As soon as my hand touched the arm of the corpse, I felt something was wrong. It was wet and hard. It was obviously not the state of a newly deceased person. However, it was too late when he reacted. There was a person under the body, standing up suddenly.
Although the light was dim, I could still see clearly because I was so close. The wet body looked no different from a living person, but it was extremely stiff. This was completely beyond my expectation. I screamed in fright and quickly stepped back.
"This is -" Peng Delin pushed his eyes and said, "Living human figurines!"
"Living human figurines." I said in surprise: "I heard that living human figurines were used for burials in ancient times. This was popular at that time. It is said that the living human beings were wrapped in a layer of gauze, and then the clay was sealed into the figurines, and then placed in the kiln. Burning inside was especially popular during the Qin Dynasty, mainly for the burial of the First Emperor."
Just when the living figurine had just grabbed my arm, the situation suddenly changed. I quickly took out a bag of peach wood chips from my pocket and threw them out. The movements of the living figurine suddenly slowed down, and its strength was much weaker than before. It waved its corpse claws angrily, looking in agony.
At this moment, I let out a low cry, took a sharp step, and rushed straight towards it. In the blink of an eye, a rope had tightly locked its arms and body, making it unable to move at all.
I saw a fierce light shooting out of the living figurine's eyes that could not rotate, bursts of strong corpse gas spewed out of its mouth, and its feet began to move desperately.
There was a "creak" sound, and there was already a trace of looseness in the rope. When I saw this, I took a deep breath, gritted my teeth, smashed the backpack I was carrying, and then kicked it hard.
There was only a loud "bang" sound, and I kicked it directly in the abdomen, but the belly of the living figurine was as hard as iron. It basically injured the enemy by a thousand, but also damaged itself by eight hundred. I only kicked it once. I don’t want to play anymore.
"Why are these living figurines not dead?" I said angrily.
"Living human figurines are not burned. In 2015, the Dutch performed a CT scan on a thousand-year-old Buddha statue. The scan results showed that there was a living human figurine hidden inside the Buddha statue. This human figurine maintained a meditating posture."
In ancient times, living human figurines did exist, just like being buried with living people. In ancient times, after the death of emperors, living people were buried with them. The living people were wrapped in cloth and sealed with mud, and then burned in the kiln. Finally, they were painted with paint, and these living figurines were used for burial. After that, the emperors This has continued. At the beginning of the Warring States Period, the thousand-year-old system of human burial was gradually abolished by various countries.
"Damn, so he's become a spirit!" My eyes flickered at this moment, and I finally decided to sacrifice some money. After all, I still lack experience in dealing with this thing. "It seems that ordinary physical attacks are of no use. I can only Use a blood curse!"
I have to explain something about the blood curse. This is the unique skill of the Dragon-seeking Taibao. Its operation is similar to the yellow talisman used by Maoshan Taoist priests in the movie to catch zombies, but at most it only looks like it. In fact, it is completely a bluffing trick. But having said that, this set of fake tricks also has its use, especially when dealing with things like living servants, and the trick lies in the smell of fresh human blood and the special smeared on the talisman paper. Potion will make them scared.
As I said that, I took out a piece of blood-red talisman paper from my arms, then gritted my teeth and dripped blood on the talisman paper. The red talisman became brighter in an instant, and a moment later, it turned into a ball of blood mist, suddenly covering the head of the living figurine.
"I didn't expect you to be able to do this!" Peng Delin said in surprise.
After using the blood curse, the effect was produced immediately. The living figurines in the blood mist no longer struggled, nor roared or swung their claws, but just stood there blankly.
"Without further delay, if we don't hurry up, if this thing wakes up again, I won't evacuate." I thought to myself, so I said to Peng Delin: "Professor Peng, stay away!"
When Peng Delin heard this, he quickly stepped back until he was ten meters away before he stopped. At this time, I recited the incantation in a low voice. After a moment, a large cloud of black mist was sprayed out from the mouth of the living figurine, wrapping itself up, and then slowly curling up. The originally huge living figurine shrank a lot.
Finally, the body emitted a dazzling light and was instantly burned to ashes.
Seeing that the living figurines had been subdued, Peng Delin breathed a sigh of relief and was overjoyed. He quickly came over to thank him and said, "Thank you very much for saving my life, young man. I see that you are not an ordinary person with your special skills. You are -"
"To be honest, I am the Taibao of Xunlong."
"Xunlong Taibao!" Peng Delin was really shocked, "No wonder, no wonder..."
I took a long breath and said, "Okay! This living figurine has been dealt with, let's..." I looked at Peng Delin and said.
"For now, we can only find a way to find the way we came. Since we have found the chain before, we should be able to find it now." Peng Delin said respectfully at this time.
Along the way, Peng Delin told me about the living figurines, saying that a group of tomb robbers went to a deserted place in Shaanxi to fight. But they only found one terracotta head. They took the terracotta warrior's head back to the off-road vehicle and planned to spend the night in the vehicle without intending to drive any further.
"At this time, a member who was next to the window saw several pillars in the distance, and they were still swinging. He instinctively had questions. Everyone looked over there and discovered this abnormal phenomenon, and the whole situation suddenly fell into panic. and suspicion," Peng Delin said.
"Because of the guilty conscience, everyone was afraid that it was the police, but they felt suspicious as to why the police responded so slowly, so they took a few people over to inquire about the situation with fear but curiosity, but what they saw after they went there was shocking. They will never be forgotten in this lifetime.”
"Meet a ghost?" I joked.
"It turned out that a few people who returned to the original place to check saw a humanoid thing moving slowly under the dark moonlight. The movement was like a stiff robot, moving slowly and intermittently. When I got closer, I saw that it was a terracotta warrior and horse, coming back to look for its own head. Several people were so frightened that they ran away."
I just think Peng Delin's story is a bit exaggerated, like a ghost story, with no technical content. However, there are still people who can tell ghost stories in this lonely tomb, which can be regarded as a unique way to relieve stress.
After walking for about seven or eight minutes, we walked into a huge stone room, which was covered with moss and water drops were constantly dripping on the damp stone walls. As soon as we entered, I felt cold all over. My teeth chattered with the cold, and I just wanted to speak. , but was silent, with a feeling of coldness from the bone marrow to the outside.
The sudden coldness of this tomb was incredible. I looked around with a flashlight and said, "Professor Peng, have you been here before? Why is it so cold?"
Peng Delin trembled and said: "No...I feel strange too...Why is it so cold?"
"Yeah, it's like coming to an icehouse, but look at the water droplets on it, it doesn't look like it's going to freeze." I observed everything here and analyzed.
"What the hell." I cursed in my mind.
Peng Delin was about to speak, but the flashlight in his hand suddenly fell to the ground: "My mother, Li Rui, come here quickly, I saw someone running past!"
I hurriedly picked up the flashlight and shined it everywhere, but I didn't see even a shadow. "Where? Professor Peng, are you too nervous, or is it too cold here to make you uncomfortable?"
"I dare to swear to God, there must be someone who ran right behind you, just...ran inside. I could see it clearly!"
After listening to what he said, I saw a look on his face that didn't look like he was lying, and I got goosebumps. We tidied up for a while, and I pointed to a wall of the stone room: "Forget it, Professor Peng, I don't think it's appropriate to stay here for a long time. Let's leave here first."
However, we didn't walk long before we saw an iron gate in front of us. It was also covered with moss and had some strange swallow's nest-like things. It was probably soil, but it was definitely not naturally formed. I pushed the iron door hard, but it was rusty and difficult to open.
"Professor Peng, come and help." I was about to call Peng Delin to come over and open the door together, but I didn't expect that Peng Delin still didn't respond after calling twice. I became confused, and when I turned around, I found that he was squatting aside as if observing something. thing.
"Professor Peng, what are you doing?"
