lost to time

"What did you find?" Zhang Qishan asked.

"This mountain is weird." Wu Xie said and reached out to touch the inner stone wall again. "The inner stone wall also maintains the same slope. If it is a single stone, I can understand it. But here you can only reach in with one hand. How was the place excavated? Moreover, the outer layer of this mountain is hard granite, but it is orthoclase here, which is completely unreasonable. Soft orthoclase will not appear under the granite, which is not in line with the laws of nature. .unless--"

"Unless this mountain is artificially piled up." Zhang Qishan understood it at once.

"Yes, but I've only heard of moving mountains to fill the sea. Why did you build mountains? In other words, the Feng Shui of this cornucopia is artificially created."

"You just said that this rock is very soft?"

"Well, orthoclase, except for talc and gypsum, is the lowest hardness."

Zhang Qishan nodded, put down his backpack and said to Kun'er, "Connect the Luoyang shovel and dig."

The ortho-feldspar was brittle but soft, and the two men moved quickly. The excavated stone was pressed to the side, saving the time of transportation, and a downward passage was dug in less than half an hour.Sure enough, after a few meters, the passage widened again. It seemed that the dead end was just an illusion, and there was indeed a lot of heaven and earth in this cave.

After digging a passage for crawling, the three put away their shovels and continued to climb forward. The ramp turned sharply downward for more than ten meters. Wu Xie felt that his brain was about to congest, and he had to pay attention to the little white mastiff in his pocket.The stone wall looks like it has been mothed, and there are thumb-sized holes all around, which looks very uncomfortable.Because of digging the hole, Wu Xie fell to the end, the passage was narrow and he couldn't lift his head up, so he could only stare at the soles of Zhang Qishan's shoes and climb forward.

With the long-term boring fixed movements and the posture of hanging upside down, Wu Xie felt that his mind was starting to get muddled, so he didn't care about the itching of his ankles.After a while, the itching became more and more intense, but there was no way to scratch it, so it could only rub against the stone wall.But I didn't expect that the more it rubbed, the more itchy it became, and there was a little prickly scratch.Wu Xie woke up and felt something was wrong. Why did he still feel like something alive was scratching his skin with its claws, so he hurried forward and shouted: "There is something behind!"

"What?" No matter how capable Zhang Qishan was, he couldn't smash through the rocks, and he couldn't turn around in a hurry. Stopping now was even more of a hindrance, so he could only ask, "Can I still climb?"

"Hurry up, hurry up! Go!" Wu Xie could feel that thing crawled up to his calf in an instant. This thing was also strange. It had already hooked Wu Xie, but it didn't make trouble, but just stabbed and scratched Wu Xie with its claws desperately. Wu Xie was itchy and painful, and the pain was that he couldn't see or feel it, not to mention how sad it was. "Can you hurry up, it's almost on my waist."

"Grab my feet." Zhang Qishan shouted.

"Scratch your ass, stop talking nonsense and hurry up. What the hell is this? It's designed to scratch the soles of your feet. I'm dying of itching, sir!"

Why isn't Zhang Qishan in a hurry, it's okay if he's in pain, but if it's itchy, it's probably more troublesome if it's some kind of poison.There is no way around this, except to quickly climb to a more open place.Fortunately, the passage was not too long, Zhang Qishan realized that when Kun'er disappeared in front of him, his body was already out of the air, and he rolled in mid-air and landed on one knee.It was estimated that it was two or three meters high, and in case Wu Xie fell down without noticing, he immediately jumped up and went to help him.

Speaking of which, Wu Xie really did as he wished and fell down with an ouch, right in Zhang Qishan's arms.

"Kun'er, look what it is!" Zhang Qishan squatted on the ground holding Wu Xie.Wu Xie had no time to think about anything else, rolled up his trouser legs and started scratching vigorously, cursing, "It's so hard to get to the next grave, it's tickling me to death, what the hell, what is this!"

"Don't grab it!" Zhang Qishan held down his hand and took a photo with a flashlight, only to see dense red spots all over his fair skin, and when Wu Xie grabbed him, there were red scratches one by one.On the part above the ankle bone, white fluff protruded from the red spot.

"What is this?!" Wu Xie grabbed Zhang Qishan's arm tightly, and his legs were still rubbing against each other, "This is not the hair of the young master, it is almost growing into a kiwi fruit, come on!" Think of a way!"

"Don't move!" Zhang Qishan was also annoyed, grabbed his leg, took out a lighter to light it, and moved closer to the white fluff, and sure enough, the fluff curled up and made a squeaking sound as soon as he got close to the fire source.

Wu Xie kicked him down with one kick, "Get out, nonsense, the ones that aren't hot are pigskin, you want to burn me to death?!"

Zhang Qishan was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, slipped on the ground and jumped up and directly grabbed him from his waist, clamping his legs under his armpit and firmly restraining him.

"Hey! What are you doing!" Wu Xie lost his balance and could only stand up and shout.

twenty chapters

"Shut up!" Zhang Qishan pulled his clothes and quickly took off his clothes, lit his shirt with a lighter, pulled out the dagger attached to his back and sterilized it on the fire. "Hold on! If it hurts, just bite my hand." Zhang Qishan said and used the hot dagger to scald the skin that had grown white hair.

"Fuck you, you think you are having a baby!" Wu Xie knew that he wanted to keep his legs, and now there was only this way, so he pinched his hands tightly into Zhang Qishan's back and cursed against his forehead, "Two people are not as painful as me alone!" It hurts, I can bear it, young master, you should move faster!"

The hot dagger was pressed against the skin, Wu Xie seemed to smell the smell of his skin being roasted, and bit his lip to count silently to distract himself.But the unbearable scorching heat lasted only a few seconds, Wu Xie saw that Zhang Qishan had no intention of making another move, and said: "Can you do it, if you can, I will do it myself, but hurry up, the fire is almost extinguished!"

"No, look."

It was only then that Wu Xie realized that the itching feeling was gradually subsiding. She grabbed Zhang Qishan's arm and saw that the white fluff on her leg was slowly falling off. The fluff that fell on the ground had a small fusiform root, like It was a hair follicle, but it was twisting slightly on the ground.

"What is this?" Wu Xie hurriedly slapped his trouser legs and stepped back. These things made him have bad associations. Thinking about how many tadpoles burrowed into his body just now, it was really disgusting.

The fallen fluff twisted and climbed in the direction of Zhang Qishan. Zhang Qishan picked up the still burning shirt with his toes and burned them clean. He found a small roll of bandages in his bag and wrapped Wu Xie's ankle well.

"I don't know, it's a good thing you're fine, otherwise how would I explain to Lao Wu. But why did you fall out by yourself?" Zhang Qishan helped Wu Xie up, a big stone fell to the ground in his heart, and he thought of something suspicious.

Wu Xie remembered the matter of the bronze tree and the old itchy, and said, "Some people say that I may have eaten the dried unicorn, maybe it has something to do with it."

"You actually ate that kind of thing, can you still go?" Zhang Qishan did not let go of Wu Xie's hand, nodded in surprise, and had heard about such things.

Although Wu Xie stomped his feet, although the pain did not go away, it was much better than the itching just now.It happened that Kun'er jumped back from the upper passage, and said with an uneasy expression, "Buddha, I didn't find anything, but the road was blocked."

"Is it Xie Jiu and the others?"

"It's not like." Kun'er hesitated, doubting what he saw with his own eyes, "It's the stone growing out, and the white crystals blocked the road. It's like this mountain is alive, and suddenly It’s like what I secreted myself, I dug a bit, and it’s so hard, it’s impossible to turn back.”

Wu Xie bit her lip, "Could it be that this is a trap?"

The place where the three of them are now is a narrow crack in the mountain, and the depth of the crack is pitch black. I don't know how deep it is, but so far, all traces of man-made have disappeared.Wu Xie regretted it too much, believed in his intuition too much, and took it for granted as soon as he found the traces, which had to be said to be a bit reckless.

As if seeing through Wu Xie's thoughts, Zhang Qishan rubbed his hair casually, "Don't think too much, no one can predict 100% if things don't happen, you're just suggesting, I'm the one who decides."

The crack in the mountain is as wide as a person, and there is absolutely no problem in passing. Zhang Qishan had already put on his clothes, and went forward more than ten meters alone, then turned around and said: "I don't think this is a trap, but more like a defensive mechanism. Once it is triggered, This road will be blocked to prevent outsiders from coming in and those inside to take things out. Your guess is not wrong, there is a faint airflow in the crack, it should be open, let's continue Go forward."

"It's just that the second master can't find us." Kun'er said.

"It's better for him to go another way, everyone has more chances." Zhang Qishan's previous words were half speculation and half comforting Wu Xie, and he patted his drooping shoulder, "Come on! There is no impossible road for me, Zhang Qishan." The Nantian Gate is closed, and I can still blow it open even if I want to go in!"

"Well, I understand, thank you." Wu Xie frowned rarely, and nodded with a stern expression. He was too careless, just thinking about getting angry with Zhang Qishan, and then there really was an irreparable mistake, dragging him down and being laughed at. He said that it is true that his life is in danger, so why should he die decades ago?

"You go in the middle." Zhang Qishan said to Wu Xie, motioning Kun'er to explore the way ahead.After he walked in, Wu Xie was about to follow, Zhang Qishan raised his hand to stop him, his head lowered, his mouth happened to be next to Wu Xie's ear, and he whispered, "Don't be afraid of making mistakes, I'm here."

The more Zhang Qishan was like this, the more Wu Xie felt guilty, biting his lower lip and said: "It's my problem, I will pay attention to it. At this time, I'm not focused on the business, I'm enough."

"It's me, thinking that maybe you won't be here for long, so I want to leave some more joy from you." Zhang Qishan smiled and shook his head with a self-deprecating smile. After all, he must be too tired for the past few years. Sometimes the cute and foolish people follow behind him coquettishly every day, like a life-saving straw.

Wu Xieyuan still lowered his head, and when he heard this, he suddenly raised his eyes, seeing that there was no joke or tease on Zhang Qishan's face, he didn't know what to say for a while.

"Okay, let's go." Zhang Qishan gently pushed Wu Xie's back, "I said I would send you back—of course you should—" Zhang Qishan seemed to be speaking the last sentence to himself, otherwise What else can I do, people like too many things, do they just want to do whatever they want with that bit of greed?Stop dreaming, Zhang Qishan thought to himself: If it is a star, even if it is Master Zhang Dafo, I really have no way to pick it off.

What's more, Zhang Qishan himself was a little hesitant about what kind of mentality he had to say such a thing, but he couldn't help saying it when he saw how aggrieved and self-blame he was.It's not that Zhang Qishan has never been a woman, but after all, war is the most important thing, and it will be over after several times.But it was the first time for Zhang Qishan to experience such ups and downs of worrying about gains and losses.

Looking at Wu Xie's slightly slender back in front of him, Zhang Qishan's heart pounded. Was what he said just now too reckless?I have said that I am not good at masculinity before, but now I say this again, what if I scare this little fox away.Even if he can't go back by then, he will run away. It's not like he hasn't done this before.Besides, now that he and Old Dog Wu have met each other, it's useless to have a grandpa and grandpa!Do you want to kill Old Dog Wu?Zhang Qishan's eyes flashed, and he pursed his lips and smiled again.

Hearing his unreasonable laughter, Wu Xie looked back at him in surprise.

Zhang Qishan scratched his neck in embarrassment, thinking that he had been with this little fox for too long, why did he become so thoughtless.

21 chapter

The cracks are sometimes wide and sometimes narrow, and sometimes you need to rub your sideways to squeeze through the stone wall. As you go in, you can faintly hear the sound of ticking water, which echoes in the quiet and narrow space, which is particularly gloomy.As we got closer and closer, the sound of the water gradually became clearer, but there were no accidents, and we arrived at a stone room smoothly.

The stone room is about half the size of a basketball court. The most striking thing is that on one side wall of the stone room, there is a head that looks half like a python and half like a dragon.At the height of a person, the whole head protruded from the wall, the mouth bared with fangs was slightly opened, and water droplets dripped down from the lower edge of its mouth.The flashlight swept across the ferocious face and shook it brightly and darkly. The python dragon looked like it was alive, making people worry that it would break through the wall in the next second.The body of the python dragon was not depicted on the stone wall. The three of them stood at the entrance and looked around, only to find that the tail protruding directly above the crack was the tail of the python dragon.Whether it's the ugly shape of the python dragon, or the carving method, the three of them have never seen it before. It looks like a living monster is forcibly trapped.In the center of the stone chamber is a sunken shallow tank, which holds a little water, and the water is densely covered with gray-white pebbles the size of two fists.

Wu Xie was taken aback at the beginning, then looked at it again and said: "The construction period of such a large mausoleum must have been very long. Maybe this is a reservoir, which attracts groundwater to supply workers with life. This is because the groundwater has dried up over time."

"Buddha, this thing looks very evil, is it a mutated dragon?" Kun'er asked.

Zhang Qishan was particularly concerned about the cobblestones on the ground, he kept looking for something in the water with his flashlight, and replied, "No, it's a kind of phosphorus python, which should have been extinct long ago, I saw it once in the underground of Vietnam earlier. "

Although I don't know how many years have passed, the water surface is very clear. You can clearly see the pebbles arranged one by one. Although the sizes are different, the spacing is even, and the middle is about the shape of a foot.

"Don't worry about it, there doesn't seem to be anything under the water, let's swim through it." Wu Xie always felt that the phosphorus python didn't look right and felt very uncomfortable.

Opposite the stone chamber is the entrance of a well-organized corridor. It seems that Zhang Qishan's speculation is still very likely, and Wu Xie is eager to verify this point.

"Well, be careful where you step." Just as the shallow water covered his feet, Zhang Qishan headed down and walked carefully through the cobblestones.When passing the python's head, Wu Xie glanced carefully, the closer he looked, the more oppressive he felt, even if it was hidden at the edge of the light, he could clearly see the scales layered on top of each other, Perhaps it was some kind of paint on the surface, and the scales were still glowing with a dark blue luster, so they were extraordinarily realistic.

Wu Xie stared at him all the way, which made Kun'er, who was following behind, also tense up.

Just as he passed the python's head and was about to reach the entrance of the tunnel, Wu Xie was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but found that the eyeball of the python's head rolled, and now that eye was looking straight at him.

"Big, big, grandpa, live well." Wu Xie stammered, thinking that it would be fine to open the coffin to produce rice dumplings, and now even the stone carvings should come to play together?

As soon as Zhang Qishan turned around, he noticed something strange, the eyes of the phosphorus python rolled, and looked at Kun'er again with sinister eyes.

"Let's go." Zhang Qishan beckoned the two of them to step forward quickly, the phosphorus python's eyes were fixed on the three of them, Zhang Qishan was at the end, staring at each other and slowly retreating.A gurgling sound came from the phosphorus python's throat, but there was no other movement. Zhang Qishan felt that something was wrong, and he came to his senses in a flash.Just as he was about to say something, Kuner took a breath of air, and there was a cracking sound under his feet.

I thought it was a cobblestone, so I didn't pay much attention to it. I didn't expect that the hard stone was just a layer of shell. After it was broken, a puddle of black water overflowed from the middle, and there was a group of things that looked like hair, floating in the water. stop floating.Seeing this scene, Wu Xie crushed the two in a hurry, raised his eyes and Kun'er looked at each other helplessly.

Coupled with the angry low growl from the mouth of the phosphorus python behind, it seemed that it would rush over and tear the three of them to pieces at any time. "Run, what are you waiting for!" Wu Xie yelled and rushed into the corridor with Kun'er on tiptoe, looking back at Zhang Qishan who was still squatting there, using a dagger to pick up the entangled black hair, After seeing that it would be thrown into the water, he quickly walked towards the corridor.

"Grandpa, hurry up." Wu Xie was very anxious at first, and felt that something was wrong when he stood far away. As the voice gradually increased, the eyes of the phosphorus python turned faster and faster, and finally spewed out a stream of water from his mouth with a splash. , poured into the shallow tank below.

It seems that the groundwater is not dry up, but because the groundwater is intermittent, the artisan took advantage of this to make the eyeballs of the stone carvings into movable organs, which are driven by water flow.But it's so vivid, it looks really creepy, maybe its original intention is to scare away people who accidentally break in.

"Fortunately, it was just a false alarm." Wu Xie said.

"Not really, but luckily we came at the right time." Zhang Qishan signaled Kun'er to move on, "This is an underground hot spring, and this is a hatching pool, using the temperature of the hot spring to hatch those pebbles."

"After such a long time, the things inside must have died."

Zhang Qishan shook his head, "It's hard to say, it's better to leave quickly."

"What was that black thing you saw just now?"

"I can't tell. No matter what it is, the size and quantity of this kind of thing are enough trouble."

"Too."

In the current situation, try not to provoke those who can not be provoked. I thought I was lucky to escape the catastrophe, but I didn't expect the reality to slap the three of them severely.The corridor of 30 meters is a dead end at the end. The stone wall is polished smooth without joints, so there is no possibility of any mechanism.Kun'er still didn't believe it, so he and Wu Xie checked almost every inch of the stone wall, and finally sat down on the ground discouraged.

Kun'er said: "Buddha, you can't turn around and blow it up with dynamite. The second master and the others should be there by now. We just go out and meet them."

The sound of the hot spring in the back gradually subsided, and Wu Xie suddenly jumped up and said, "No, there must be an exit! Otherwise, this place would have been submerged long ago, and there must be a drain in the sink."

But not to mention that the sink is full of those strange eggs, but whether the drain can accommodate a person is still a problem. Thinking of this, Wu Xie fell silent again.

Zhang Qishan had the same thinking as Wu Xie, so he understood why Wu Xie was suddenly silent, but he and Wu Xie had different opinions on this point.

22 chapter

"It should be fine, let's go and have a look." Zhang Qishan said.

"No." Wu Xie denied Zhang Qishan's opinion, "This kind of water only needs a small drainage hole. If you can use a slightly wider rock gap, you don't even need to install drainage."

Although Wu Xie said so, he still walked back to the stone room with nervous Qishan.The water sprayed from the python's head has turned into a trickle. Perhaps because of the rise in water temperature, the gray-white eggshell has become translucent, and the black liquid inside can be faintly seen flowing with the temperature.

"No, I said there must be." Zhang Qishan let Wu Xie stay in the corridor, and he and Kun'er carefully touched the water, looking for the drainage hole with the flashlight.

"Grandpa, do you know what it means to have such a big drainage hole?" Wu Xie squatted on the edge of the corridor, and took out the white mastiff and a small bottle of milky yellow liquid in his pocket.This was given to me by my grandfather when I was about to leave. The white mastiff is not allowed to eat indiscriminately. It must be the milk of the first litter of a pure white, hairless little bitch.

"Well, it's not for drainage at all." Zhang Qishan raised his hand to brush away the falling hair, "It's for something to pass through, you know why I said there must be."

"Because it's too clean here?"

"Well, there is nothing except the complete package shell, the remaining traces of survival, and the traces of hatching. It took so much effort, but it has not been successfully hatched once, so there is no need for the existence here. Then those hatched things Where did it go? According to an adult body of this size, that passage can accommodate a person to pass through." Zhang Qishan said.

After hearing this, Kun'er was more careful about her steps, and said, "Could it be that he ran out of the mountain?"

"No, the blocking agency there is not just to guard against us, but to guard against all things that pass through there. They also don't want these things to go out and attract the attention of outsiders."

Because she has been growing up abroad, it is actually the first time for Kun'er to go to the tomb. She saw so many things without even touching the door of the tomb, so she felt a little guilty.The enemy is not scary, the scary thing is that you have no idea what the enemy is.

"Buddha, here!" Kun'er did not act rashly after discovering the covered cave entrance.

Wu Xie then stood up and looked around. It turned out that in the direction of the southeast corner of the sink, there was a cobblestone egg slightly larger than the others. The shadow covered more than half of the hole, so it was difficult to detect.The size of the hole is just one shoulder width, and you have to shrink your shoulders to get in. It seems that crawling is very difficult and hidden in the water. If the passage is too long, it is impossible to climb to the end in one go, and it is still useless.Unless it was a last resort, Zhang Qishan didn't want to use explosives to attract the attention of the Japanese soldiers outside. With the addition of Xie Jiu and Huo Xiangu, this trip would most likely be for nothing.

Kun'er took out the climbing rope from her bag, wrapped one end around her waist, and handed the other end to Zhang Qishan. Without further ado, she got in to have a look, and agreed that if she pulled it three times, it would be safe and passable.

The two people who stayed behind stared at the rope nervously as they pulled deeper and deeper. These few minutes were so long. If the other side still couldn't find an exit, Kun'er might not be able to hold back the breath she held.

"Buddha, it's been too long!" Wu Xie couldn't help reminding, seeing that the rope was still being pulled in.

"Wait a little longer." Zhang Qishan's hand holding the rope tapped his thumb rhythmically on the joints, silently patiently waiting for Kun'er's limit time.

The white mastiff that had been lying on the ground suddenly jumped up and let out a low cry, the sound was like a knife cutting the tight string between the two.Wu Xie was startled and didn't say anything, even Zhang Qishan tightened his hands and was about to take back the rope in his hand.

"Wu Xie! Look!" Zhang Qishan's eyes were still fixed on the entrance of the cave, and he began to use force in his hands to pull Kun'er back.As soon as he pulled, he found that the force on the other end was pulling and fighting against Zhang Qishan. Zhang Qishan had a bad heart, so he quickly wrapped the rope around his waist a few times with both hands, and when his lower body sank, he would use all his strength.But suddenly Zhang Qishan heaved a sigh of relief when he pulled three times in a row from the other end, and responded with another three tugs worryingly, and the other end immediately gave the same signal again.

"You can go." Zhang Qishan turned around and said, and added another sentence worried, "Let's meet up quickly, what is the white mastiff calling?"

The white mastiff was shaking its short legs back and forth and barking in the same direction. If the situation hadn't been too tense, the whining sound would have broken Wu Xie's heart. No wonder grandpa had missed this little white mastiff all his life.Wu Xie took a flashlight and found that it was the place where he and Kun'er had crushed a few cobblestone eggs just now. He saw that the black hairs that were originally separated had become entangled, floating and twisting with the slight shaking of the water waves. moving.The white mastiff kept barking, so Wu Xie took a few more glances, and immediately found that the twisting direction of the thing was not the same as the diffraction of the water waves, or even completely opposite, that thing was alive!And it looked like they were wrestling and suppressing each other!

When Zhang Qishan was talking, Wu Xie just discovered this problem, picked up the white mastiff and ran to Zhang Qishan, grabbed the rope and said: "Wrong! Wrong! Those things are alive! Kun'er is in trouble!"

"Get in!" Zhang Qishan immediately understood what Wu Xie was referring to.

"You go first! I climb slowly and will block your way!" Wu Xie said and grabbed the rope in Zhang Qishan's hand, "You can go ahead and drag me in front!"

Zhang Qishan grabbed Wu Xie's wrist, and said decisively: "I will never let you fall behind again! Kun'er is still safe for the time being, I trust him. If you are really worried about him, hurry up and leave!"

Wu Xie hesitated for a few seconds, knowing that Zhang Qishan would never let go, and it would be nonsense to say any more, so he gritted his teeth and frowned and said, "Zhang Qishan, you are sick! I don't need to take care of you, sir!"

"It's up to me to decide whether you need to take care of me! Go!"

Wu Xie understood his character, and since he was so determined, he would not change it, so he crawled into the cave without his urging, delaying time would only be detrimental to Kun'er.

The walls of the irregular circular passage were covered with black moss, and the arms fell off in pieces, mixed into the water and blurred the vision, and it was very slippery to climb.The passage has a concave arc, and in the second half of the upward walk, Wu Xie climbs two steps and slides one step. It should not be far from the exit, but this distance seems to exhaust the breath in Wu Xie's lungs.

Gurgling bubbles overflowed from his mouth. Wu Xie didn't want to drown in the sewer hundreds of thousands of years ago, so he grabbed the rope that was still dragging in the passage and shook it forward vigorously.Soon the rope from Wu Xie's hand to the exit was stretched tightly, and Wu Xie used this force to climb out of the cave, almost dragged and dragged.

23 chapter

As soon as his head came out of the water, a hand lifted Wu Xie out of the passage.Wu Xie shook off the water from her hair and face, panting heavily.

"Where are you—the Lord Buddha?"

"Call me Wu Xie!" Wu Xie said as he pulled the rope in his hand to signal, "The Buddha is behind."

"Oh." Kun'er was not familiar with him, so she sat back on the ground after answering.

Wu Xie looked around vigilantly. This should be the ear chamber of the mausoleum. It is located on the left and right of the main tomb. Generally, the left general and the right concubine are buried with the emperor's favorite people.

It's just that the place where the coffin should have been placed is empty now, maybe the whistle coffin was moved from here by the Japanese soldiers.There are still some scattered funerary objects left in the stone room, and there is a pillar with a single person's arms in each of the four corners, which symbolizes that the general will shake the world and calm the world.The pillars look black and have lines, and two of the stone pillars are engraved with an upside-down line from top to bottom——

Wu Xie couldn't describe it any further. Dragons engraved on the stone pillars in the ear chamber were considered impolite. In the ear chambers of generals, most of the funerary objects should be decorated with white tigers, while phoenixes and phoenixes should be the main ones for empresses or concubines.But what's wrong with the two giant caterpillars carved like dragons and snakes? Did the emperor forget to take his medicine?

Wu Xie was thinking about it and wanted to take a closer look, but Kun'er stopped him and said, "Wu Xie, don't go far, we'll talk about it when the Buddha comes."

Wu Xie thought about it, the things in the water just now indicated that there might be living things here, so it's better to be careful.When I came back and squatted next to Kun'er, there was a shallow groove along the wall around the stone chamber. The passage for Wu Xie and the others to climb out was in this shallow groove.At the bottom of the water in the shallow tank, there are a lot of light blue and white debris, which looks like pieces of Ru porcelain. If it is Ru porcelain, it may really be a large tomb of the Yuan Dynasty, but why smash it when it is buried with you?Wu Xie felt a little distressed. If this product is finished, half the city will be bought, but if you grab a few bags and go back to make cracked porcelain, you can still change a few houses.Because of the nature of profiteers, Wu Xie reached out to pick up the pieces to see if there was any possibility of splicing them together.

As soon as I started to use it, I knew it was wrong. One side of these fragments was still covered with a layer of film, and the texture was not like porcelain fragments. They were the fragments of those cobblestone eggs just now, but they were so thoroughly broken that Wu Xie couldn't tell them apart for a while.

It seems that all the things in the last incubation room rushed here in the end, and Zhang Qishan hadn't climbed out yet, so Wu Xie couldn't help but look around again.There are murals painted on the walls, most of which are mainly bright ocher red, which has become light brown because of the age.The content of the screen is nothing more than some leading soldiers fighting in all directions, which is similar to what Wu Xie speculated.The general's face can no longer be seen clearly, but the strange ones are the little soldiers following him, with the head of a bull, the face of a horse, the face of a bird, wings of a beast, in short, there are all kinds of strange shapes.

There are mythical generals, but Wu Xie has never heard of such an exaggerated part on the soldiers.The flashlight just moved over bit by bit, and then retracted until it was out of sight. Wu Xie suddenly felt a strong sense of unease and fear as the light flickered.It was soon discovered where this intense fear came from, and one of the caterpillars that had fallen upside down on the stone pillar was missing!

"Kun'er—If Zhang Qishan doesn't climb out, the two of us will confess to being here." Wu Xie said as he stepped back tremblingly, looking around for the missing big caterpillar.

"What's the matter?" Kun'er heard the danger in Wu Xie's tone, and immediately jumped up.

"That thing is really alive." When Wu Xie said this, there was the sound of water splashing behind him, and Zhang Qishan was getting out of the water.Hearing this, he snatched the flashlight from Wu Xie, twisted it to the maximum and threw it into the darkness in the center of the stone room.

With a bang, the flashlight rolled and stopped in the stone room, but was trampled out almost at the same time.

"Turn off the flashlight." Zhang Qishan pressed Kun'er's hand that was holding the flashlight, and the whole stone room was plunged into complete darkness.

When the sense of sight is turned off, the sense of hearing becomes extra vigilant. There is a slight rustling sound in the dark, and it is difficult to distinguish the direction from left to right, which brings great psychological pressure to people.Wu Xie reached out to touch Zhang Qishan's arm, and leaned towards him subconsciously.

Zhang Qishan patted the back of his hand, took the flashlight from him, pushed him back slightly, and drew out the long knife at his waist, and groped towards the center of the stone room.

Compared with the rustling sound, Zhang Qishan's footsteps were barely audible, and Wu Xie was really sweating for him.Time passed by, Wu Xie felt that the rustling sound was getting closer and closer to him, and there was a handful of oil paper wrapped around his waist, but Zhang Qishan took the flashlight away, so he couldn't hit it or hide Can't hide.Wu Xie lowered his body and tried his best to distinguish the direction, and slowly moved towards the other direction where the sound came from.

Only then did Wu Xie realize that even Kun'er had gone somewhere, imagining himself in a dark room with two fluffy worms one or two meters long, cold sweat dripping down his forehead, The more anxious and flustered Wu Xie heard the sound of his heart beating over the rustle, no matter how much he ordered himself to calm down, it was useless.

No, Wu Xie forced himself to stop and squat on the ground.Don't worry, Zhang Qishan is here, there must be a way, nothing will happen, that's Master Zhang!So comforting himself, Wu Xie felt a little relaxed in his heart, and couldn't help but let out the breath he was holding in his chest.Before he could finish breathing, a gust of wind blew, and Wu Xie felt something brush against the back of his hand. Goosebumps immediately appeared all over his body, and he sat down on the ground in fright, turned over and got up and ran.A gust of wind blew through the back of his head, Wu Xie was in a bad mood, and threw himself forward with all his strength, rolled a few times on the ground, stood up and couldn't tell the difference between south, east and north, and saw a rapidly shaking light in the corner of the stone room.Wu Xie got up and ran towards the direction of the flashlight regardless of 21, and vaguely saw Zhang Qishan and Kun'er wrestling with a black shadow.

When I ran closer, I saw Zhang Qishan retreated a few steps to the pillar, jumped up and stepped on it, turned over and slashed at the black shadow with the knife on his back, the blade was embedded in the long fluffy worm's body, writhing on the ground, thinking Close to Zhang Qishan.Zhang Qishan took a look twice and took out the pistol from his bosom, but he didn't know where he hit it twice, the bug didn't move anymore, only the hair all over his body was still rustling slightly on the ground.

Just as Wu Xie was about to slow down, he felt something running past him. This direction was heading towards Zhang Qishan's back. Wu Xie was anxious, and without thinking about it, he took a few steps and jumped, pressing on the ground. On the body of the thing covered with long black hair, the tentacles were covered with greasy hair-like things. Wu Xie forcibly held back the feeling of nausea and did not dare to let go. He only yelled: "Zhang Qishan!!"

Looking back, Zhang Qishan saw Wu Xie and that thing rolling into a ball, bent over and drew back his saber, and rushed over.

"Wu Xie! Let go!" Zhang Qishan shouted while jumping into the air, flying over Wu Xie's head, grabbing the long worm's hair with one hand, retracting his hand and throwing it back, the saber in his hand pointed at the long worm's hair His head was stabbed hard, and then he held the handle of the knife with both hands and gave it another section.Although the worm was dead, the hair all over his body was curled up, he turned over suddenly and wrapped Zhang Qishan in.Within a few seconds, Wu Xie was close and Kun'er arrived at the same time, trying to cut off those hairs with a dagger, and the hairs trembled greasy as the blade touched.These were not hairs at all, but long and slender antennae, which couldn't be cut off all at once.

As time passed, Wu Xie became more and more flustered. This kind of panic was worse than being alone in the dark. His subordinates had lost their way, and they just kept calling Zhang Qishan's name.
