I gradually woke up a lot in my confusion. In front of me, an obscure flame danced high on the fire. Next to me, Zhang Sanju looked exhausted and leaned side by side against a cave wall with artificial traces.
I thought to myself: "What a fucking shame. A big guy like me actually fainted twice along the way." I felt an inexplicable sense of humiliation.
I saw Zhang Sanju was in a daze, so I patted him and said, "Hey, Lao Zhang, what just... happened?"
I'm still a little grateful to Zhang Sanju for saving me, but this old guy broke my grandma's dream in order to blackmail me. I really can't forgive it, so I went with the situation, so I compromised by calling him Lao Zhang.
Seeing that he didn't respond, I was still looking ahead blankly, so I followed his line of sight. My scalp immediately became numb and my heart immediately beat violently.
I saw a black shadow squatting motionless in front of us, resembling a human figure. Since it was outside the halo of fire, I couldn't see what he looked like. My heart began to beat wildly.
After a while, I couldn't help but poked Zhang Sansui, and whispered: "Is this a lamp-holder? Have you had enough rest... I'm so fucking broken."
Zhang San grabbed my hand suddenly and lowered his voice: "Stop talking, this is... Li Sanzi, remember... don't look at him or say hello to him, otherwise you will be killed." He said silently The ground burst into flames again, and at that moment I quickly closed my eyes. In my memory, this was the first time I had such close contact with... a ghost.
Zhang Sanju took out a pack of compressed biscuits and a small bottle of Laoshao from his backpack and placed them next to Huozhezi. Zhang Sanju pointed to the passage on the right and said, "Guo, your mother, go first, don't look back."
A sense of fear filled my heart, but I knew I had to move forward to have a chance of survival.
I had just taken two steps when someone behind me knelt on the ground with a plop. I immediately sped up and ran, and then I heard a pleading voice from behind, it was Zhang Sanzhi.
"Third son... don't be naughty. Third master, I am very tired now. Look, we have been walking for so long and haven't eaten anything yet. You and I have been together for so many years. Why don't we have a drink and chat..."
I thought to myself that Jiang Lao is still spicy. I stumbled a few times and turned on the flashlight. A dull breath hit my face. The particles in the air made me cough when I inhaled it, and it was accompanied by a burst of dizziness.
In a daze, a white waterfall appeared in front of me, and suddenly someone grabbed my ankle at my feet.
"Master Zhang, it's him, it's him!" A familiar voice sounded at my feet, and I was so scared that I almost knelt on the ground.
Take a quick look, huh? Yes, this is Li Sanzi!
I subconsciously looked back. Axiu crawled out of the robbery hole behind me, stood up and glared at me. Then he came up with three arms and beat Li Sanzi. From the beginning to the end, I never saw Scarface.
What's going on here? Why am I back?
At this time, Axiu was attracted by the white waterfall in front of her, and she shined a flashlight on it. Then a thunderbolt flashed through my mind. I immediately hugged her and jumped off the cliff, because I knew there was a plank road below, and we There is a black blind man spying on us above.
Sure enough, we landed firmly on the stone plank road. Axiu pushed me away, kicked my calf, and said angrily: "What are you doing! You scared me to death. Believe it or not, I will push you down."
I said angrily: "Shut up! Stop talking nonsense, run down the river, run! Run!" There was a black blind man peeking at us from above. I was just about to ask Zhang Sanju and Li Sanzi to come down, but who knew The two of them jumped down with a "mom" sound and started running desperately down the plank road. I quickly grabbed Axiu and followed them.
On the way, I asked Axiu for my cell phone and played music to hold him back. In about thirty minutes we arrived at Dragon Water Absorption, but strangely the round hole above did not cast any moonlight.
At this time, my mind was spinning, and my thoughts were in chaos. I looked at Li Sanzi, and he looked lifelike, not like a dead person. So I said to Li Sanzi: "Brother Sanzi, come here and see what is carved on the wall of this cave."
Li Sanzi blushed, probably a little uncomfortable with me being so humble to him. He scratched his head and said, "Yeah, Brother Li, let me see."
I thought to myself that if the previous one was a prophetic hallucination, at least I could save his life now. He walked over with a flashlight, and under the strong light, a black outline appeared. I was so scared that I ran back because it was a black blind man, clinging to the wall of the cave, breathing up and down with its belly. The whole body was wet with water, covering up its stench.
I quickly went to greet Axiu and Zhang Sanji and asked them to quickly enter the cave behind the dragon sucking water. When I got closer, I saw Zhang Sanju kneeling on the ground. There was a female corpse floating in the water. Her head had been bitten off, leaving only half of it. I could still recognize it, it was Axiu.
My brain went numb instantly, and I felt dizzy. I couldn't help but cover my head with my hands. It was really hard for me to accept it for a while.
While he was hesitating, he heard Zhang Sanju scolding: "Old boy Guo, leave quickly and don't look back. I'll hold Axiu back."
It's getting more and more confusing. What's wrong? I really knew the horror of the soft rice dumplings and the black blind man, so I entered the dark cave alone.
I turned on the flashlight and suddenly discovered that there were two roads on the left and right in this cave. It was Zhang Sanji who got me into the cave at that time. So how should I go now? Also, I was thinking, how could a person die twice in this world? If the same thing happened repeatedly, why would there be two results?
In an instant, my heart dropped. Fei Long had told me many stories about rural rumors and ghosts in tombs. Judging from the current situation, I was beaten by a ghost. So when did I get attacked by ghosts? I was haunted by a ghost. I thought about it, and it was probably not me who was being haunted by Li Sanzi, because Zhang Sanji was dragging Li Sanzi at this time, so it should have been the time when I was escaping from Li Sanzi.
Also, the second time I returned to the cliff, I didn’t see Scarface! Is it Scarface?
Breaking ghosts and walls is not a difficult task for tomb robbers and those who have some skills. In the past, there were some wealthy families in the world whose homes were haunted by ghosts, so they had no choice but to secretly invite the descendants of the four major tomb robber sects. Legend has it that touching gold has talismans, hair mounds have seals, moving mountains has skills, and removing mountains has armor. If ghosts and monsters encounter it, they will move away.
I glanced at my watch. It was now past two o'clock in the night. I had been working non-stop all day yesterday. Fei Long had called me Guo Zi for three years, but yesterday Zhang Sanju and his gang called me Guo Pian. In that situation , it is absolutely impossible to joke, and Fei Long did not refute. If I were Guo Zan, then I would be a descendant of the Wu Zan sect. There is no record of the ghost-exorcism skills of the Wu Zan sect in that old autobiography.
To be honest, I found that dilapidated autobiography book among my grandma's belongings. It only has about 180 pages. The lower part seems to have been corroded by water. The paper is rotten and the writing is messy. It is impossible to read. I only read it part by part. I had the patience to watch it, and it only lasted a few days. Every time I watched it, I felt a little dizzy.
But there is a passage that says:
In my early years, when I first broke through the weak crown, I realized that I was a descendant of the tomb robbers. Since I had never really gone down to the tomb when I was a child, the first few times I went to the tomb and encountered ghosts breaking the wall, I used to bite the tip of my tongue to dilute the evil spirits. Qi, thus clearing the eyes.
Is this something I've experienced before? I believe it more and more. As soon as I was cruel, the upper and lower rows of white teeth squeezed the tip of my tongue. The pain on my tongue was different from the pain in other parts of my body. It was a heart-wrenching pain that made my soul tremble. I took off my strength and went down, and a stream of hot blood filled my mouth.
The flashlight in my hand was still on, but the scene in front of me was completely different. I didn’t know where I came. It was an underground passage with a texture like tree bark. My lungs were a little depressed. It must be very underground. In the deep place, it is damp and hot. There are many small cracks under the feet, and the gas coming out makes people's throats very uncomfortable.
When the ghost was beating the wall, I guessed that I must have done some strange things and walked many unknown and unimaginable roads. It was almost three o'clock in the morning. I guess I had just walked blindly for more than half an hour. .
Just when I was puzzled, a white figure appeared inexplicably at the end of the flashlight, like a graceful woman in white gauze. I almost dropped my flashlight to the ground.
He thought to himself: "If you are timid, you will not go to the grave. If you go to the grave, you will not be timid. I don't even know how to get out of the current situation. If I am so afraid, I may die faster."
As soon as I gritted my teeth, I gained a lot of courage in an instant. I pulled out a folding saber from the side pocket of my backpack. This was given to me by Zhang Sigui. I didn't dare to run forward too excitedly, but stuck to the irregular I walked forward steadily on the wall of the cave, just like a cat spying on a mouse. If I don’t clean up this unclean thing, I will be secretly killed by it sooner or later. No matter it is a soft or hard rice dumpling, today I will I'll fight with you.
After just a few steps, the white shadow suddenly disappeared. At this moment, there was a sudden hissing sound behind me. I was excited and immediately shined the flashlight behind me. A white shadow disappeared not far away.
Damn, this feeling is very bad. If you are walking on a country road in the middle of the night, and a white shadow appears in front of you and then disappears, and then another white shadow appears behind you, you will feel that there is a ghost in front of you, but you can't see it. , and what makes people even more uncomfortable is that there may be a ghost staring at the back of your head right behind you.
Almost instantly, I turned the flashlight behind me again, and sure enough, the previous white shadow appeared again at the end of the flashlight, and then disappeared again. This was a feeling of being insulted. I ran towards the white shadow. I was very fast. I arrived in a few seconds. I looked around with my flashlight and found nothing suspicious. It was not cracked. The cave wall is an uneven cave passage.
At this time, white smoke hissed out from the crack under my feet. I quickly covered my mouth and nose, but still inhaled some. My eyes blurred. In an instant, my leg was kicked down, and I fell into When I got into the robber's cave, I cursed my mother, and I was so angry that I was about to stab behind me with my saber.
After being poked in the butt a few times, a delicate voice scolded: "If you scold me again, my aunt will bury you alive, hurry up!"
Axiu? Something's wrong!
I quickly bit the tip of my tongue again, and my eyes were clearly distorted. I rubbed my eyes. I don’t know when I had already climbed up a section of blue stone steps. Every few steps, there were white skeletons that fell apart. It didn’t take long for me to Climb to the top of the stone steps.
Before I could see clearly, there was another hissing sound behind me. When I looked back, I saw that it was white smoke coming up from a crack in the ground. This should be a strange substance that can cause hallucinations when inhaled. I ignored it and turned my head back to see what was strange on the stone steps. A familiar and hoarse voice sounded from not far behind my head.
"Brother Guo, where are you?"
Scarface!
I immediately looked back, and it turned out to be Scarface, Scarface with only half of his face! I was so scared that I screamed and fell backwards, but as soon as I sat down, I slid down. I wiped it with my hand and saw a thick layer of kerosene. In a hurry, I took a flashlight and saw that I had fallen in. There is an ear canal that slopes downward (it is a small tomb passage, often with hidden mechanisms, and sometimes it may be a secret passage to escape from the dead).
A fire stick was thrown from the hole where I fell. In an instant, the fire oil was ignited, and the fire waves rolled up instantly. The shape of the flames was like a skeleton ghost rushing towards me.
