Thousand Lantern Night

Wang Jianqiang finally let go of the hand that was pinching me, and there was a stabbing pain of blood flowing backwards on his shoulder.I bared my teeth, and let out a hard "bang", completely forgetting the fact that I couldn't speak.The standard is good, the kind of scar that forgets to hurt.Wang Qiangqiang went to the side to pack up the equipment, and looked at me with a half-smile, amused, "Little wild cat, doesn't it feel good to have your claws pulled out? Don't worry, as long as you do things obediently, it doesn't matter if you can talk."

I glared at him angrily, if I hadn't been tied up, I really wanted to pounce on him and beat his face flat.

Heisen fumbled behind the steps, holding a piece of rag in his hand, looking at it and comparing it, he seemed to be looking for something.He waved the flashlight and called Wang Jianqiang to go over, "Old Wang, come over and have a look. Is this the agency that the guide said before?"

Wang Jianqiang was fiddling with his bottles and jars, and said impatiently, "Not all of them are marked on Quedan's map, you can do it yourself!"

Hai Sen cursed, and squatted down next to the brass button that resembled a mechanism, not knowing what he was doing.After a while, he called Wang Jianqiang again: "Old Wang, come and help me! This thing can move!"

Wang Qiangjian had almost cleaned up and walked over in a few steps.Hai Sen asked him to pull the chain connected to the copper button together and pull it up. The two of them tried a lot but nothing happened. Wang Jianqiang stepped on the copper button and shrunk the button. Going down, "What's all this? Do you understand the map?" He said, grabbing the rag from Hai Sen's hand to look at it.

Suddenly there was a very crisp "click" under his feet, as if something bounced off.Then the whole porch trembled suddenly, and the place where the copper knob was nailed began to slowly rise up, forming a pillar.The steps on the square platform began to sink at the same time, until it sank below the level of the square platform and became an underground passage.

Hai Sen hurriedly pulled Wang Jianqiang: "Look! It's here! Hurry up and prepare to leave!"

Before he could finish his words, the porch moved violently again, and this time the entire square platform tilted.I originally planned to sneak away while the two of them were moaning, but because my hands and feet were tied, I could only roll a few times in the direction that Poker Bottle and the others left.The platform leveled suddenly, and I slid towards Wang Jianqiang along the slope.Hai Sen held me down and shouted at Wang Jianqiang: "What the hell are you doing, old Wang! What's going on!"

"How the hell do I know! Quickly pull that thing up!" Wang Jianqiang also shouted, stabbing himself while rushing to try to pull up the copper button again.However, he yelled for a long time, but the copper button did not come out again.What was even more chaotic was that after a few bumps, the platform suddenly started to turn.At first, it moved like a stuck gear, and then it became smooth and turned like crazy.I thought to myself, this is not Disney Park, okay?

The speed at the back can break me into molecules until it turns into dust. If Heisen hadn't hugged the pillar pulled up by him tightly, and at the same time firmly tied me to the pillar, I would have been killed. Centrifugal force threw it out, and then fell to death in the corner of the hall.

When I was about to spit it out, Fang Tai finally stopped.There was a "bang" sound as if the tenon and tenon were stuck into the incision. I was so shocked that I hit my head on the pillar and almost passed out.When Haisen dragged me away, I heard a heavy sound, it seemed that the pillar fell down.I was very surprised, wasn't I able to knock over the stone pillar?

Panting, Wang Jianqiang dragged the backpacks from under the pillar, and scolded: "What the hell did that bastard guide do? If his mother doesn't explain it clearly, it will kill me!"

"Don't fucking complain, find the way quickly, we have to find something before Qin Ai comes back, otherwise we might be killed together!" Hai Sen patted my face to wake me up, Remind Wang Jianqiang to finish the backpack quickly and get on the road quickly.When I heard him say that, I only felt that one hundred times it was not good, as if they were going to die with a stuffy oil bottle.

Wang Jianqiang wasn't so tough anymore. After taking out his backpack, he spread out the rags in his hand and continued watching with a flashlight.After a few comparisons, he pointed to the direction where the pillar fell and asked Haisen: "Look, Lao Hai, there is a place with light marked on this map, could it be there?" Untied the rope, and told Wang Jianqiang to turn off the light.

In the darkness, the place Wang Jianqiang pointed to did indeed scatter a few rays of light, but it was very weak.Like the first light of sunrise on the sea before dawn.And it seems that the light is far away, as if hidden in a very deep black hole.After Wang Jianqiang turned on the flashlight again, the faint light disappeared.

"It's probably there. Try it!" Heisen put the equipment on his back and pushed me to go with them.

Wang Jianqiang was still visiting with the flashlight, and said, "No, Lao Hai, the direction this pillar points to has no way to the other side!"

Hai Sen walked over to have a look, then looked back at me and said, "This kid must know how to get there. Let him lead the way!"

Wang Jianqiang seemed to be persuaded, put away his map, walked over to me and took out a gun: "Let's go, boy! There must be a reason why the boss asked us to get you, don't drag the old man to say goodbye You are rough!"

When I heard him speak like this, I immediately realized that Yinzhen told them to do this.That guy didn't abide by the original agreement at all. I thought about dumping them after I found the seal ring, but I didn't expect to be hacked by them first. "Get it", you don't want to just kidnap me until you find all three seal rings, right?What do they want Guixi for?

But at this time, I couldn't think too much. The fact before me was that Poker Bottle and the others were very likely to encounter some kind of danger. I didn't want to try the feeling of him almost dying again.Thinking of this, my whole body is about to explode, and the fire is very hot.Seeing Wang Jianqiang pointing a gun at me, I immediately gave him a sneer.Damn, since Yinzhen told them to hold me, forgive them for not daring to really kill me. Besides, these two bastards tied my hands. Can you roll around?Depend on!I will play with you to the end!

I tried not to start, which meant that I was not happy to leave, and I felt like hitting my head, so don't shake your hands!Just kidding, what else can you do to me if I don't leave?Have the ability to carry Lao Tzu all the way!

The atmosphere was silent for a while, probably Wang Jianqiang didn't expect this kind of reaction from me.After a long while he let out a laugh and said, "Look, Lao Hai, this kid is still acting like a bitch!"

X!You old boy is a bitch!All of you are pussies!When I heard this phrase used to describe me by a fat man, I became even angrier, so I just turned my head away and ignored them.

Heisen seemed to have considered it for a while, and probably also considered my bargaining chip, and said with a smirk: "That's enough, boy, I have a big temper. But we can't spend it here all the time, right? Tell me, what do you want?" ?”

explain?Talk about your ancestors!When I heard his words, I couldn't help but turned my head and glared at him, and at the same time, I struggled hard to shake my numb arm.

Now that I'm in their hands, I won't be able to escape for a while.It's better to start first, and then find a chance to meet Poker Ping and the others.But before I hit the road, I had to win my freedom.

Hai Sen saw what I meant and nodded to ask Wang Jianqiang to let me go. "Okay! We let you go. But don't try to run away, or I'll shoot your legs and you'll be disabled. Don't blame me."

As soon as the rope was untied, I quickly got up and patted my body clean, then grabbed the mask and tore it off violently, and threw it at Heisen's feet.He wasn't angry either, and moved his chin towards the place where the pillar fell: "Enjoyed? Then let's go!"

Wang Jianqiang cooperated with me and pushed me forward with a gun.I didn't want to entangle them too much, so I went straight to the direction of the pillar.These two stupid donkeys may not know about me and Poker Ping's inference about the "coincidence of different dimensions", so of course they don't know that there is a Tao that is invisible to the naked eye.Of course, this is just my guess. Judging from the way the platform moves, it is very likely that there is a mechanism that changes with time and space.

I walked to the other end of the pillar and groped around the extension.Sure enough, in the direction pointed by the pillar, there is a road extending upwards, which is in the shape of steps.After I took a step, I took another step with my foot, regardless of whether the two donkeys could keep up.Just as we walked up into that black hole-like place, I noticed that the copper chain that had been thrown under the entrance made a slight noise, and it seemed that someone was climbing up.I thought about it quickly, and remembered that the black glasses hadn't appeared, could it be him?

I put my hand into the pocket of my jacket. There was still a piece of the compressed biscuit that Poker Bottle gave me earlier. I crushed it calmly in my pocket, and sprinkled it on the ground part by part.Although it is not very hopeful, it can only try its best.

We walked for about ten minutes, and then we stepped on the real ground, in another very dark hole.The ray of light I saw before was still far away, and it seemed a bit unreal.The two donkeys kept comparing the rags as they walked behind me, saying that it was the map given by Quodan, and they also babbled about "the direction is right, but why can't they go to the end?" I really wanted to be right. They both raised their middle fingers.

To be honest, I myself have no idea about the layout of this place.Walking in this way, it feels like there are countless black holes, one within another, continuing and covering.Going further inside, there are upside-down branches on the top of the hole, long and short, like an upside-down forest.Hai Sen accidentally pricked one, pierced a piece of skin on his head, and bled a little.Wang Jianqiang suggested to rest in place for a while, and found a corner to release water.

Heisen pressed my shoulder, and we sat together on the ground next to the wall.He simply wiped the wound on his head, dug out something to eat, and handed me a piece.I shook my head to show that I was not hungry, and he ate it bluntly.I moved my buttocks, turned my back and sat down, shaking the flashlight in front of me boredly, thinking about how to get out.Heisen said "Aiyo" behind me, and I turned my head to see him scratching the wound, as if it was very itchy.

He stared at me and pressed the heel of his hand on the wound: "What are you looking at!" I thought to myself that you think you look good, so I turned my head and continued to shake the flashlight boringly, too lazy to talk to him.After a while, Wang Jianqiang came back, sat next to me and started eating.The two of them held me between them like they were afraid I would run away, and I felt like a chicken nugget in a hamburger.

A few minutes later, Hai Sen couldn't help but yelled: "Old Wang, help me see if there is anything on my head? It's itchy and painful!"

Wang Jianqiang stuffed the biscuit into his mouth and stood up to check Hai Sen's head.I also took a look because I was bored, but when I saw the thing on Heisen's head, I jumped up almost reflexively, and took a few steps back.

Hai Sen's wound actually grew an eye!It's the one I've seen in the Thousand Buddha Caves before.I quickly turn off the light, this kind of thing tends to light.It was dark in the cave, and Wang Jianqiang shouted furiously: "You are looking for death! Turn on the torch!" I thought it was my nervousness, so don't be afraid if there is only one, they are so tough Probably stabbed him to death with a knife.

When the flashlight shined again, I saw Wang Jianqiang grabbing the eye with his right hand and pulling it out of Haisen's wound.The tug nearly made me throw up.There is a long worm attached to that eye, which looks like a snake and is still writhing.Wang Jianqiang threw one end of it against the cave wall and crushed it to death. He took a closer look at the flashlight.It turns out that the eyes are the tail of this thing, and it gets thicker as it goes forward.But this worm has no head. Its head is just a hole with a circle of hard fluff poking out, which looks like a mouth.At this time, the "mouth" was bloody, and it must have sucked a lot of blood.

Wang Jianqiang threw the bug away, gave me a fierce look, as if to warn me not to run away, and then took the flashlight to clean Haisen's head.I saw a finger-sized hole on Heisen's head, bleeding out.Wang Jianqiang professionally sterilized and bandaged him.

Then Hai Sen insisted on walking forward, and after walking a few steps, he shook his head, as if he was very dizzy.Then we walked forward for about ten minutes, and the cave finally bottomed out.The outside of the cave is not the light source we imagined. Below is a deep ditch, and there is a very clear sound of water flowing.I compared the width of the ditch with a flashlight, and it was about 200 meters.On the opposite side is another stone wall with densely packed caves chiseled on it.

Wang Jianqiang gestured to the map: "There is a suspension bridge going down from here... After going up the suspension bridge, the mark is Thousand Buddha Caves... It should be here..."

While muttering, he used his flashlight to find a place on the opposite stone wall, when suddenly there was a loud muffled sound from behind, which startled us.Looking back, Hai Sen fell headfirst to the ground, twitching wildly.Wang Jianqiang hurriedly bent down to turn him over. I took a flashlight and saw Haisen's eyes turned upside down and his teeth rattling.Wang Jianqiang touched his forehead and said, "That's right, I'm convulsed by the fever!"

Then he pulled off Hai Sen's backpack and threw it to me, "Find some antipyretics!"

I did as I did, and handed him two pills and half a bottle of water. He opened Hai Sen's mouth and drank it, and said to me: "Rest here first, and wait for Lao Hai's fever to subside. You can also sleep, and I will come." Watch." He took out a kerosene lamp and put it beside him, motioning for me to turn off the flashlight and go to sleep.

I originally wanted to say that those bugs would attack with the light, but I thought that this is already the entrance of the cave, and it would not be difficult to escape, so I gave up.But I didn't dare to sleep against the cave wall, so I sat on the ground at the entrance of the cave, curled up into a ball with my legs hugged.I half-closed my eyes and saw Wang Jianqiang sitting next to Haisen playing with a few guns, and sighed helplessly in my heart.

At first I just pretended to be asleep, but then I was in a trance.I don't know how long it took, Wang Jianqiang suddenly shouted: "Lao Hai! Lao Hai!" I woke up with a jolt.I shook my head and moved over to see what happened to Hai Sen. I saw Wang Qiangqiang put his hand on Hai Sen's carotid artery. He froze and turned his head to me in disbelief, "He's dead!"

I too was taken aback.But after calmly thinking that it was unlikely, I wondered if it would be killed by an explosion, and maybe I could still be saved.Just as I was about to speak, I immediately remembered that I was made dumb, and I cursed these two stupid donkeys for their good deeds!I made a gesture and asked Wang Jianqiang to check the whole thing and try to see if he could be saved.Wang Jianqiang obviously couldn't understand my gestures, but fortunately he seemed to understand it too, and began to remove the bandage from Hai Sen's head.

What happened next was absolutely the most disgusting scene I've ever seen.

Hai Sen's head was originally just a scratch, but now it has deteriorated into a bloody hole!Countless insects the size of silkworms scrambled out of that hole, covering his face in an instant, and burrowing into every crack.They crazily got into Haisen's nostrils, mouth, and ears, and Wang Jianqiang didn't even have time to slap them to death.

"Use fire! Use fire!" I yelled anxiously in my heart, and rushed to the backpack to find a fire pocket, and rubbed it to burn the bugs.But a lot has been drilled in, especially in the ears, and I can't get it out at all.The scalded bug rolled beside it like dry wood, and ignited with a chirp.

The two of us were in such a hurry that we didn't notice that Heisen's eyes suddenly opened.He stood up like a corpse, and without warning, he punched me in the head.Stars flashed in my eyes, and Huo Zhezi flew out of my hands.Wang Jianqiang was more alert, and jumped away after relying on a word.

After following Heisen, I stood up. I realized that the situation was different, and I rolled twice on the ground and retreated to a place closer to the entrance of the cave.There was a very loud clicking sound from Hai Sen's body, it felt as if all the bones in his body were splitting, and at the same time he waved his hands and feet frantically, as if to attack.But after he wobbled for two steps, he suddenly bent down and vomited violently.

At that time, Wang Jianqiang and I looked at each other in surprise, Wang Jianqiang shook his head at me, motioning me to check the situation first.Then we saw the pile of vomit twisting and wriggling under Heisen's feet at the same time, it turned out to be a pile of black bugs!The worms were alive at first, and after twisting for a while, they slowly turned into a bunch of stiff branches.

Damn, is this still Cordyceps sinensis?

Just when I thought I was about to vomit, Hai Sen suddenly let out a shrill scream, and saw him straighten up suddenly, and rushed towards Wang Jianqiang!I was worried for Wang Jianqiang for a while, I was afraid that he would also contract this strange disease after being injured by Hai Sen, but Wang Jianqiang raised his gun and fired several shots at Hai Sen.Hai Sen screamed and writhed and fell down, twitching on the ground.

This is something I didn't expect at all.I stared at Wang Jianqiang's calm face for a few seconds, and suddenly felt a sense of fear in my heart.Then it immediately occurred to me that I must run away as soon as possible. This kind of person is really terrible!

As soon as I thought about it, I immediately turned around and ran towards the entrance of the cave. Taking advantage of Wang Jianqiang's time to focus on dealing with Hai Sen, I quickly found a way to go down.

However, I just ran two meters, and the gun was chasing after my heels, as if to warn me to stop.I ran faster, I don't want to die at the hands of Wang Jianqiang for no reason.Wang Jianqiang quickly started chasing me and shouted: "If you don't stop, I'm going to hit you!" Immediately after these words, he jumped and threw me down from behind.

I was already on the edge of the cliff at the entrance of the cave at this time, and he didn't think about the rush he made in a hurry. I just felt that I was pushed hard by him, and I flew out of the air!The bastard was lying on the edge of the hole, and his face was suddenly pulled away from my sight.

At this moment, I thought I was dead.Suddenly something jumped out from the darkness behind Wang Jianqiang, leaped over the stone wall sensitively, and grabbed my subconsciously waving arm.

I can't remember the first time I've been caught in the pull of a fall to the point where my arm nearly snapped, but I'm obviously grateful for not having to fall into a puddle.My body hit the mountain wall heavily, and I used my two feet to stabilize myself before I looked up and saw the person who saved my life.

Or rather, something.

It turned out to be the girl I met at the Broken Bridge before. Her eyes are stone beads like red rocks.

Shi Ji.At that moment, the title came to my mind.At the same time, another message flashed in my mind: she looks like the cloud in Banai.No wonder I felt like I'd seen her somewhere before.
