Chapter 187: Nu Qing Xiangxi Defends the Heavy Gate

Chen and Luo heard that the engineers over there were in a commotion, saying that they had dug up "human heads and watermelons". Knowing that there was something strange, they led the people over to check. By this time, it was getting dark and the heavy rain that had fallen all night had stopped. , the ground gate is in the shade of the mountain, "the terrain is high and dry, and the running water flows around." After the rain stops, there is no water flowing in again, but the ground has been dug by the engineers and is uneven, except for mud and sewage, bypassing several When Chen Xiazi separated from the crowd and looked inside the ditch under construction, he was also very surprised. He couldn't help but said "Huh" and said to himself, "It's weird."

It turned out that more than ten feet underground, there were many watermelon-like things with branches and vines and leaves, but they were buried deep in the soil. The undulations on the melon skin looked like human faces, and the spots on the faces looked like blood stains. If someone were unaware and saw it, they would inevitably think it was a "human head" in the soil.

Luo Laowai crushed one with his foot. The flesh inside was as red as blood, and a lot of red juice splattered out. It was not like ordinary watermelon flesh. He whispered to Blind Chen: "Mr. Chen, my brother did it in western Hunan." There was a business of sending corpses for smuggling. Although there are many weird things in the mountainous area, I have never seen anything like this before. Now I have found it, I wonder if it is good or bad?" Although he is a murderous warlord leader, he is used to "deceiving people's business, concealing things from others" "God's work", but after all, he was from the bottom of the old society, and he was still a little afraid of things in the dark. He felt that digging up melons like human heads was definitely not a good sign, so he asked.

Blind Chen picked up a melon from the soil, looked at it for a long time, and then said: "Brothers, you don't know something. There are only winter melons, watermelons, and pumpkins in the world, but why are there no north melons? In fact, it's not true that they don't exist, but very few people know. Because the northern melon only grows in the barren mountains and rivers of Yidong, it is also called corpse head. It is the result of the resentment of the deceased. It is often produced from the ground. It is rarely seen in the world. What is dug out now is the corpse head in the soil. quite."

In the early years, there was a saying that the ghosts of those who died would go down. For example, there would be a section of black carbon in the ground at the feet of the hanged ghost, and a melon with a human head would grow out of the ground of a decapitated corpse. Before death, a wave of resentment is difficult to extinguish, and the knot is formed into an object. It is usually found in execution sites and ancient battlefields. It is rare to see this object when digging graves. Blind Chen knows all the objects in the world. Although he can recognize them, it is difficult to find them. Good or bad, but the vicinity of Pingshan Mountain was an ancient battlefield. Countless barbarians in the Seventy-two Cave were slaughtered. The souls of the dead under Pingshan Mountain must be full of resentment, so it is not surprising to dig up corpses of barbarians in the ground. On the contrary, it shows that the mountain The yin energy was deep under my feet, and I was not far from the tomb door.

Although Luo Laowai is an illiterate and cruel warlord, he also knows that sometimes you cannot rely solely on the gun leader. Now that the engineers and soldiers are frightened when they see the foreign objects dug out, they must stabilize the morale of the army to prevent more and more deserters from deserting. His eyes After thinking about it twice, he moved a human-headed melon out of the mud pit, and said in his mouth: "Bridges return to bridges, roads return to roads... Clothes go to the pawn shop, no one in the East China Sea is afraid... Young people are most afraid of keeping an empty house... ..." He wanted to recite a few words of the spell he learned as a corpse transporter to save the souls of the dead, so as to make the engineers feel more at ease and not delay the important event of tomb robbing.

Those gags had been used for many years, and they had long been rusty, so I had no choice but to talk nonsense. Unexpectedly, after Luo Laowai had just finished talking nonsense, the corpse head he was holding suddenly fell from his hand as if it was alive. Come and immediately roll up the slope.

The group of thieves and the soldiers were all shocked. Luo Laowai was even more frightened. He sat down in the muddy water on the spot. Blind Chen beside him had quick hands and had already waved the "Little Divine Blade" in his hand, and hit the The head of the corpse was cut into two halves with one knife. It turned out that there was a black centipede in the melon, which wanted to stay in the melon for the shade. It was cut into two pieces by the sharp blade. There were dozens of pearls the size of fingernails inside the centipede. This was The thing is called a centipede spider and should not be brought close to the mouth or nose. However, if there is scabies poison on the body, it can be rubbed repeatedly on the affected area to remove the poison. It is a rare medicinal material.

Luo Laowai thought it was Ye Mingzhu, so he hurriedly asked his men to dig out all the corpses from the ground, and dig them out one by one to examine them. However, they found nothing, so he couldn't help but lost his temper and had no intention of doing his dojo anymore. He ordered The engineers continued to work, and unless the door of the Pingshan Ancient Tomb was dug out today, his grandma would not allow him to stop and rest.

Most of the soldiers in the engineer digging camp were heavy smokers. After digging all night, they were exhausted and rested for days. Some of them couldn't help but became addicted to cigarettes. They collapsed on the ground on the spot and were immediately dragged to the forest. He was killed, and this method of killing one person as a warning to others was indeed effective, and the rest had to continue digging with big shovels and big hoe.

If there is anything to say, it will be long, if there is nothing to say, it will be short. This digging continued until noon, and sure enough, deep in the underground where there were corpses and barbarians, a majestic large stone gate was dug out.

It turned out that there happened to be wind, rain, thunder and lightning last night, and Chen Xiazi's skill of listening to the wind and thunder was put to use. During the thunderstorm, he heard the endless echo in the ground, and concluded that the tomb door was at the foot of the mountain, but it was buried very deep, so he dug all the way down. There must be something to be found. If ordinary tomb robbers don't have the ability to "listen to holes to find hidden objects", otherwise even if hundreds of engineers vomit blood from exhaustion, they would not be able to dig to the tomb door so quickly.

Luo Laowai was overjoyed and ordered each of the engineers who dug up the stone gate to be rewarded with two taels of high-quality "luck and longevity ointment". While talking, he and Chen Xiazi led a group of thieves to go over, pushing away the tired engineers who were staggering around. I saw two dark blue stone gates, both of which were more than three people tall. They were also very wide horizontally, like a closed city gate. The stone gate buried deep in the ground was extremely heavy, probably weighing no less than three to five thousand kilograms. There was a gap between the doors. It was poured with lead, water, and iron, and was cast so tightly that even if you wanted to use a steel drill to pry it, there was nowhere to work. The ancient cemetery palace was very large. Although there were no jewelry and jade in the side hall, according to local legend, the Daojun Emperor used to pay tribute to the gods. All the precious things were hidden in a deep well in the main hall. Luo Laowai was so greedy that when he thought of this, his throat felt dry and he swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva.

At this time, a group of sharp-eyed thieves discovered ancient characters chiselled on the stone gate. After clearing the soil, they did not recognize it. The group of thieves in Xiling were all thieves in the forest. Although some of them had ink in their bellies, after all, their knowledge was shallow and they could not recognize it. I can’t tell what ancient seals were carved, but this curiosity is common to everyone. The more I can’t understand, the more I want to know what it is. Many ancient tombs have been robbed in the past, but I have never seen anything on the tomb door. If there are words, this is not suitable for the burial system.

Among the group of thieves, only Chen Xiazi, the leader of the bandits, was a well-educated man and often boasted that he was full of economics and allusions. At this time, the group of thieves invited him to the front and looked at the ancient seal script on the stone door. After just one glance, Chen Xiazi felt like "Fifteenth Five-Year Plan" in his heart. "I was moving up and down with a bucket to fetch water." It turns out that the line of large characters on the door of the tomb is not a seal script inscribed on a stele, but a "curse" from the owner of the tomb to those who touch gold in the hair mound. Although the person buried in the tomb is Tartars, but tomb robbers have always been Han Chinese, so these characters are engraved in Chinese characters. They are the seal script on the stele, but not ancient seal script. The content is a lot of vicious and sinister curses on the tomb robbers who dare to touch this haunted house.

Chen Xiazi is the leader of the Xiling Mountains. He has dedicated his life to visiting ancient tombs and tombs in various places. He has never believed in the nonsense that robbing tombs will lead to retribution. However, standing in front of the big stone door of the tomb passage, he felt strange and ominous in his heart. As a student, I vaguely feel that there is a huge danger hidden in the netherworld behind this door. Once the door is broken in, what awaits everyone will be a nightmare. There is a saying that "the heaven cannot be deceived, think before you act, everything will end in the end" "If there is a reward, it's just a matter of whether you come early or come late." He has done so many tomb robbing activities that even if he is a bandit in the Xiling opera that is rampant all over the world, he will inevitably feel guilty sometimes.

But how can there be an arrow to turn back when you draw a bow? Hundreds of pairs of eyes were fixed on Blind Chen, and they did not allow him to hesitate or fear. These thoughts just changed, and he pointed at the tomb door and said to the group of thieves: "Read the inscription on the stele, it is the English... …These are the names and titles of the tomb owners. Engraving them on the stone door is exactly the custom of those from the Western Regions. We don’t need to be surprised.”

After hearing this, the group of eavesdroppers nodded repeatedly and raised their thumbs in their hearts. Mr. Luo smiled crookedly and said, "Sure enough, Mr. Chen is the wise man. I can't even recognize half of the bird characters in these ghostly symbols." After saying this, he nodded and called the engineers. Battalion Commander: "Come on, prepare explosives for me and blow up these people's dicks!"

Since ancient times, Xieling tomb robbers have used long hoe and big shovel, and they destroyed every tomb they dug without worrying about anything. They immediately left twenty or thirty engineers who were familiar with burying blastholes and asked them to drill holes in the tomb doors to blast them. The bluestone door was so hard and heavy that only a white spot was left when the chisel went down. This kind of work could not be completed in a moment. The rest took the opportunity to eat and sleep in the forest, recharging their energy and waiting to fight in the tomb.

In the afternoon, the blasts of the last few blast holes resounded through the mountains, and the tomb door weighing several kilograms was finally blown open. A lot of smoke was rumbling out from the tomb door, and it only stopped when the Jade Rabbit rose to the east. The thieves were sure The bad luck in the tomb passage had been blown away by the mountain wind. When I went in to explore, I cried out in pain. It turned out that the depths of the tomb passage were blocked by stone bars. The stones were surprisingly large, and the small ones weighed more than two hundred kilograms. The tomb passage However, it was difficult to use explosives to blast it, so we had to send engineers to cut out the cow's nostrils in the stone, tie them with thick ropes, and drive the mules and horses to forcefully drag them out. ".

This was quite time-consuming, and a whole day and night of energy wasted. Old Luo was so anxious that he scratched his head and scratched his head, but Chen Blind had long known that this kind of ancient tombs of the Yuan Dynasty that "cut the mountain into a coffin and pierced the stone to hide it" should be like this. If there hadn't been With such an arrangement, wouldn’t it have been stolen over the past few hundred years? So he calmed down and directed the group of thieves to excavate step by step. After all the stones were transported out, a stone door on the inside was cut open, and the long tomb passage was exposed. Judging from the material structure of these huge stone tomb doors, They all demolished the Taoist temples on Pingshan Mountain, and blocked the tomb passages with stone steps and beams to prevent thieves. However, the tomb passage at the entrance is far away from the Underworld Gate of the underground palace. I don’t know how many portals there are, and some mechanisms are indispensable in the process. , immediately ordered everyone to be more careful and not to be careless.

A group of thieves lined up in front of the door. Some were carrying bags of temporarily transported herbs and lime to deal with poisonous insects and mirages lurking in the tomb; Inside the cemetery palace, ladders were built across the mountains and bridges were built across the water; each person in the front row held a large bundle of straw with nine layers of leather hidden in the middle, all of which were soaked with water. The other group of thieves all carried shields to shield the inside of the tomb. Luo Laowai's troops had also smoked enough, and their guns were loaded with bullets, just waiting for the leader's order.

When Blind Chen saw hundreds of his men standing in front of the tomb passage, he couldn't help but feel proud. Although this formation was not comparable to the hundreds of thousands of troops who excavated the tombs of the Han Dynasty emperors, it could still be considered a considerable scale. It looked like the Xiling Mountain was already in the sunset. The thieves seemed to be reviving under their own leadership. They suddenly felt heroic and said loudly to everyone: "We are not born to be thieves. It's just because the world is in chaos today. It's better to suffer in dire straits than to suffer in the heat." Go to the Green Forest Road to be a hero and do some actions to gain strength, so as to impress the world. The underground palace behind the tomb passage is full of gold and silver treasures buried in the tomb. Are these artifacts really belonging to the ancient corpses in the tomb? I want to ask which one they didn't collect from the people? They were used during their lifetime, and they will be left to rot with them after death. Do you really think that the old man above your head has no eyes? Now is the cycle of heaven, and we are taking it as a substitute. Heaven is the way, and this is called retaliation for retaliation. Brothers, those who can do extraordinary things must be heroes. As the saying goes - if you are bold, you can conquer the world, but if you are careful, you will not be able to move forward, so don't be afraid to fight me!"

The group of thieves responded in agreement and followed the leader into the tomb passage. Luo Laowai also pulled out his gun and added a few words for Blind Chen as he walked, shouting: "Everyone who moves forward will be rewarded, and whoever retreats... It’s inevitable that he will take advantage of me, I’ll fuck his grandma, don’t keep any of those dick-like weapons, I’ll take them all back to the handsome man’s house!”

Blind Man Chen is good at reading people's faces, and knows that although Mr. Luo Wai is a quick-tempered King of Hell, he also came from the Green Forest Road and is very loyal. Also, he will have to count on Blind Man Chen when robbing tombs in the future, so he will not betray him. At this time, he, a warlord who is "addicted to tomb robbing and has a penchant for voyeurizing corpses", wanted to follow him to the underground palace. Naturally, there was no problem. However, some of the pistol company soldiers guarding the tomb gate were commanded by one of Luo Laowai's adjutants. , although he was his confidant, he was not very reassuring. He was very cunning and ordered Miss Hong to stay with a group of bandits from Xieling to avoid sudden changes.

A group of thieves covered their faces with black cloth and poured into the tomb passage. In the front row were the thieves "holding long bundles of straw and pigeon cages hanging on their waists." There were people at the back who carried lamps to illuminate, "fire candles, The tomb passage was originally the dome figurine passage in front of the Alchemy Palace. The ancient passage was wide and flat, and could pass a carriage. Every ten steps on both sides, there were gorgeous stone pillars, about the height of a person. They were originally placed Lamps are used for lighting.
