We all followed Zhang Rui subconsciously.The white coat and the turf head passed in front of me in a flash.

I was also confused, and I ran for a while and thought about it: "Hey, we don't know what's ahead, shouldn't it be safer to go back to the original place?"

They don't listen to me at all.

The white coat was almost gone, but he stopped suddenly for some reason, and his hand stretched out from the darkness in front of him to grab me: "Oh, I said brother! Stop talking nonsense, save your energy and hurry up , don’t cry after losing you and Zongzi!”

The words in the white coat are too unpleasant, but he is not bad.

He dragged me to quicken my pace.I was thinking wildly, and suddenly a strange idea popped into my mind.

I don't know if it's my delusion, I'm clearly an oil bottle, and I'm no longer useful to them.In this kind of near-death environment, everyone should put self-protection first, but no matter Zhang Rui or the white coat, they never forget to take me with them before escaping. Why is that?

Is there any particular reason why they seem to be afraid of losing me?

Inexplicably, the idea of ​​"human sacrifice" came to my mind at this time. It is difficult for me to think positively about these desperadoes. Even for a person like Zhang Rui, since he participated in the tomb robbery, he is breaking the law. Excavating people's graves is not a serious matter in broad daylight, and it does not belong to formal archaeology. This kind of people may also do one thing on the surface and another on the back, and do everything for their own benefit.

Maybe when I was negligent, I would get a knife.

Thinking of this, I felt a little timid in my heart, and I couldn't help but want to throw off my white coat.But the white coat was tightly grasped, and I wanted to stop, but I couldn't resist his strength, and I was still dragged by him and ran wildly involuntarily.

The white coat ran and said: "I said, little brother, why are you so awkward, we will not send you to death, you just cooperate, we are all on the same boat now! Damn, what Come so many scorpion dragons!"

I was out of breath and asked, "What is a scorpion dragon?"

"I gave them the nickname!" said the white coat, "Are ordinary dragon lice so vicious?! If we are stung by them, we will die. Regardless of their small size, they are more powerful than South African poisonous scorpions Thousands of times! The last time we had a lot of people fell into the hands of these little bugs! Damn it, I would rather fight with tigers and lions than run into these things!"

I heard it, and I was really ashamed of the tiger and lion rice dumplings.

Zhang Ruidao: "The smell of corpses is too heavy here. These dragon lice live here all the year round, and they have mutated long ago. The young master reminded us to be careful, but we are still too careless!"

Zhang Rui ran faster than us and had already opened up a long distance.His voice was originally soft, and it was almost indistinguishable mixed with the sound of a large number of insects.

What they said made me shudder, but I couldn't help raising the flashlight to shine on the top of my head. Human psychology is like this, the more afraid you are, the more you want to see it.

It’s okay if you don’t take photos, but when you take photos, you can only feel that there are densely packed small beetles, constantly squeezing out from the cracks in the stones, and some of them have been squeezed down by the waves of insects.

I felt that they might fall into my collar at any time, so I tightened my neck and said, "Isn't it a way to run like this?"

"Damn, they can crawl faster than we can run! - Sigh!"

"what!"

The white coat suddenly stopped for no reason, and I didn't have time to brake, so I bumped my head against his iron-like back, which hurt so much that my nose almost fell off.

Before I started cursing, the white coat scolded: "Damn it, why did you suddenly stop and block us!"

I rubbed my sore nose.Zhang Rui turned his back to us and said: "The front is blocked by bugs, we can't get through." He was right in front of the white coat, and it was he who stopped to intercept the white coat and the turf head, so I bumped into it.

In fact, I quite admire Brother Zhang. Right now we have no way out in all directions. Those dragon lice are like black cotton wools surrounding us, airtight, and the road we can walk has long been submerged by the sea of ​​insects.Both the white coat and the turf head were pale, let alone Lao Tzu, his legs were sore and weak, and he just wanted to sit down and wait for death.But Zhang Rui was still very calm, squinting his eyes and looking around, he didn't seem to give up.

The white coat remembered the machine gun on his back, picked it up and said, "Damn it, I'm fighting these bugs!"

Zhang Rui shouted: "Don't be impulsive! Insects have resonance, once you shoot, it will only attract more!"

"Let's set it on fire, bugs are afraid of fire, and I still have a few lighters on me." Caopitou said, he took out four or five lighters at once, and poked open the cover with his fingertips as if performing acrobatics, ready to ignite.

"No!" Zhang Rui slapped all the lighters in his hand, "I told you when I entered the cave that no fires are allowed here!"

Originally, we had more tools, so there was absolutely no need to be afraid of these bugs. Obviously, they in white coats had made full preparations for the situation in the cave after they had come to explore the way last time.Unfortunately, a flood washed everything away.

"Damn, it's neither left nor right, what do you think?!" The white coat was extremely impatient, shaking the barrel of the gun and could hardly bear it anymore, "It doesn't matter, I would rather die vigorously than be a **** What a coward, just wait for these little bugs to gnaw me into a hornet's nest!"

Zhang Rui said coldly: "Your gun can deal with zongzi, but it can't deal with so many dragon lice, so don't be reckless!"

He wanted the white coat to calm down, but the white coat didn't listen, and he had to do it.Unexpectedly, the two had an argument.

My impression of Zhang Rui has always been that he is a very gentle and cautious person. I didn't expect that Zhang Rui stopped in front of the white coat at this time, raised his hand and punched the white coat.

This punch hit the left side of the cheek, and the white coat staggered and fell several steps back. His burly physique is beyond the reach of ordinary people.I couldn't help being surprised.

I thought that according to the temper of the white coat, it is certain that sparks will hit the earth, and the sky will collapse.But he didn't expect that Zhang Rui's punch in the white coat made him wilt, and he only gritted his teeth fiercely without making a sound.

Zhang Ruidao: "Boss Cheng is not here, let me decide." He spoke extremely calmly, but there were turbulent waves hidden in the calmness.

I really didn't expect that a person with a gentle and elegant appearance could have such a bearing. The strength of that punch was amazing. The white coat held back for a while, and spat blood on the side.But in this way, we all calmed down a lot.

Of course, calmness alone can’t solve the immediate crisis. Those dragon lice are gathering at an alarming speed, sealing us inside. The scene is very horrifying. If I can get out alive, I’m afraid I will never forget this terrifying scene in my life .

2.

The white coat refused to put down the gun, but he didn't act recklessly anymore, and only cursed in a low voice: "Damn it, there are enough bugs here to turn us into bones in an instant!"

After listening to his and Zhang Rui's explanation just now, I know that let alone waiting for these bugs to gnaw us clean, as long as we are touched by them, we will probably be hopeless.

Seeing the worm walls hanging from the ceiling of the cave, Caopitou suddenly let out a "huh" and said, "It seems a little strange. Although the worms are gathering more and more, they didn't attack us."

When I heard it, I also felt strange.We have stayed for a while, and there was a quarrel, during which the bugs just gathered together, but there was no further movement.

It seems to observe the prey before launching an attack, but the dragon lice is not that high-end, right?

The white coat broke the pot and said: "I'm probably waiting for their dragon queen to come over and have a big meal together!"

Turfhead seemed quite relaxed, he patted the shoulder of the white coat with a smile, and said: "You are the most interesting among us, and you must be the first to appetize you."

"Fuck you, I'm so sour! If you can't eat them, you'll smoke them to death!"

I was already sitting on the ground, and Zhang Rui's flashlight shone at me, making my eyes hurt.I asked him what he was doing with me, but he didn't say a word. I thought there was something behind me, and I felt a chill down my spine.Zhang Rui had a serious expression on his face, and pointed his flashlight at the ground all the way to my heels.

"What?" The white coat and the turf head came over at the same time.

Zhang Rui looked at me, his eyes were a little strange, as if he was troubled by some problem.I had to froze, and said handsome guy, don't look at me with such eyes, I am a pure man, I will never eat this.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Rui narrowed his eyes, and suddenly raised the corners of his mouth into a smile, very captivating.I was taken aback again, feeling guilty in my heart.

His flashlight began to shine on me, slowly from the heel to the chest, and the light circle stopped at my chest.

I really didn't expect what he was doing, suddenly he rushed over and stabbed me, tore off my shirt, stared straight at me, looked up and down.I was wearing a close-fitting hoodie. I didn't know what he was looking at, so I reached out to touch it after looking at it.

Lao Tzu was itchy and embarrassed by his touch, and hurriedly asked, "What are you doing?"

Zhang Rui said with a straight face, "Master left something on you."

"Um?!"

The white coat and the turf head were attracted, and the three of them surrounded me.

Zhang Rui took out a package of things from me, wrapped it in cloth strips, and wrapped a few rounds of tape around it, which was originally attached to my waist.

I ran away in panic all the way, and I never realized that there was such a bag around my waist.

Zhang Rui looked at me, and smiled as vaguely as before: "It seems that he picked you up from the water."

I blinked inexplicably.

Zhang Rui disassembled the cloth strip, and inside was a waterproof bag, but there were many air holes, and some faint green powder spilled out from the small holes.

After I saw the powder falling on the ground, the dragon lice that were crawling towards us suddenly ran away in a panic as if seeing a nemesis, and crawled elsewhere.

Zhang Ruidao: "It seems that the young master has already prepared."

Turfhead said pleasantly: "No wonder the bugs didn't attack us, but surrounded us. It turns out he has this on him!"

I asked: "What is this?"

The white coat took a deep breath: "Damn, it was a false alarm. My little brother, why didn't you take out this kind of treasure on your body sooner! This is the powder ground by the bone-eroding golden lice. Scorpion Dragon is afraid of this thing. Young master is very kind this time!"

I know the dragon lice, but I have never heard of the "bone-eating golden lice". The name seems to be the opposite of the carnivorous dragon lice, which eat bones.The turf head later said that the bone-eroding golden locust is a kind of golden dragon louse, and it actually lives together with the water louse, but it is very rare and more difficult to catch.

Among the myriad things in the world, some things that grow together also restrain each other, which makes people marvel at the wonder of the universe.

The golden gnat is a kind of extremely poisonous dragon lice, and everything will rot wherever it goes, so it is called "bone rot".Now, the powder of this highly poisonous bug can keep us alive.

I'm a little curious about how these powders come from. It is impossible for ordinary people to come into contact with the bone-eroding golden lice, let alone catch it.But now is not the time to ask questions.

The grass head turned to the white coat, shook his head and said: "Old Zhen, this shows that the young master knows that you will cause trouble, so he reserved a way for us to deal with it."

"Nonsense, how could he know that I would drift with this little brother." The white coat was also a little puzzled.

"Okay, this is not a place for chatting." Zhang Rui had already opened the waterproof bag, he looked at me specifically, and said, "Hurry up and put the powder on your body, we can leave here."

The four of them divided a pack of gold lice powder and applied it on their bodies. I asked if the powder would have any side effects on the skin. Zhang Rui said yes, but did not say that there were any side effects. What, I think it is right.

The powder has a strange fragrance. After applying it on the body, it may be preheated and evaporated under the action of body temperature, and the fragrance becomes stronger and spreads to the surroundings. The dragon lice are really afraid of this thing, and they all disperse at once. , will not come near us at all.

Afterwards, we passed through the sea of ​​insects smoothly, and the road in front gradually turned into a narrow corridor, but the roof of the cave became higher and higher, and finally formed a feeling of walking in a canyon, with cliffs going up and down on both sides. A dark blue band of light can be vaguely seen above his head, like that kind of "a line of sky" landscape.

It was later discovered that what we had just walked through was indeed a gully between two cliffs.

After coming out, I arrived at the bottom of a valley surrounded by mountains.

Walking in the mountains feels like a roller coaster, you can't know where you will go in the next second.Just now we were walking the maze in the cave inside the mountain, and before we knew it, we had passed through a mountain and reached the other end of the mountain.

Both the white coat and the turf head breathed a sigh of relief, saying that they had finally come here.I know they were here last time.

This valley is not big, and you can see the opposite end at a glance, but the surrounding mountains are soaring into the sky, and all of them are steep cliffs. It is estimated that if you look into the valley from the top of the cliff, you may not see the bottom , like a "mountain well" that appears in the center of the mountain top and descends vertically.

The light at the bottom of the valley is very dark, but it is much better than in the cave.I looked up, and I could see a small piece of sky like "looking at the sky from the bottom of a well", with a faint bluish-white glow, clouds and mist shrouded in the cliffs, and were covered by plants growing in the gaps in the cliffs. Experience cannot judge what time it is.

The white coat pushed me from behind, urging me to leave quickly.I was stunned just now, and saw that Zhang Rui had already crossed a large area of ​​bushes and walked about 30 to [-] meters away.The three of us hurried to follow.Sodhead took out a Damascus knife, cleaned up some dead vines, and opened the way for us.

There are no tall trees in the valley, but vines and thorn bushes that grow close to the soil. There are dead branches and fallen leaves everywhere, making a crisp sound when we step on it. We walked very carefully.

Zhang Rui had been leading us before, but after arriving here, he ignored the three of us and went to the center of the valley on his own.

There is an ancient building in the middle of the valley.Zhang Rui was walking towards that building.

He looks like a white and artistic youth on the outside, but his skills are surprisingly agile, and he seems to be flexible in any terrain. I saw him jumping back and forth between the gravel with ease, and he arrived at the mountain in a short while. in front of the building.

Buildings are lifted into the air by huge stone piers.Because of the miscellaneous books I read, I also have a little understanding of ancient architectural styles. Although I am not an expert, I can at least see some famous buildings.I paid a little attention to it. The building is symmetrical about the central axis, like the style of Ming and Qing Dynasties, with red walls and golden roofs, carved beams and painted buildings, and the eaves are actually paved with glazed tiles sprayed with glaze.

Just the perfect color of the roof tiles and the ridge animals carved on the ridge and cornice of the roof are enough to surprise people.

This kind of color scheme is very common in one place, so it is very familiar - the Forbidden City.

In ancient times, there were also strict regulations on the color of buildings. What kind of status lived in what kind of palace.The Forbidden City was built and completed when Zhu Di moved the capital to Beijing. The building is dominated by "red walls and golden roofs", which looks resplendent and majestic, which also symbolizes the majesty of the emperor.So this kind of color is none other than the emperor.

I couldn't tell for a moment what it means to have such a building here, and I vaguely feel that this trip to the tomb robbery is not a trivial matter, maybe they in white coats are going to steal the tombs of the emperor's relatives.

The stone pier under the building is also made of a whole piece of white marble. There are six stones in total, each of which is about as thick as six or seven people surrounded by people. They are carved with birds and animals. It may be because the shrubs and jungles are relatively humid due to exposure to the sun and rain. Now the stone pier has been remnants beyond recognition, with thick moss attached to the surface, and branches and leaves growing in the cracks.

Between the two stone piers on the front is a stone step made of stacked granite, which is called "Ruyi Stepping", leading to the entrance of the building above.

Zhang Rui was walking up the path.

At the top of the stone steps stood a man with his back to us.I saw the man wearing a black knitted hat from a long distance, and his clothes were in tatters, as if he had been through a fierce battle.

I recognized that hat, the first time I saw it in the private room of the bar, and the second time I saw the person carrying me wearing such a hat when I woke up from a coma.

And the figure of that person was vaguely familiar to me.
