Chapter 3 Corpse Language(1/2)
"Lin."
The voice was deep and seemed particularly cold.
He is a weirdo who doesn't want to communicate with others and often closes himself up and isolates himself from the world.
What's even weirder is that each sentence can only say three words at most, as if one more word will lead to death.
Anyway, in my impression, I never heard him say a complete sentence.
It's no different than a dull gourd.
I nodded in response and then asked:
"Do you know what kind of tomb is inside?"
He shook his head and at the same time said the word "we" in his mouth.
It means that the tomb is an unknown territory, and he doesn't know whether it is a disaster or a blessing.
"No matter what he is, we have explosives, so what are we afraid of? If we have rice dumplings, we can blow them up. Maybe there is a Japanese saber inside and we can use them!"
The fat man's eyes were glowing green, staring straight at the burglar's cave.
A silly character like Fatty would never survive two episodes in a TV series.
I glared at the fat man and then looked at Zhang Tianyi:
"Can this tomb... be lowered?"
It's not that I'm afraid, but Zhang Tianyi was picked up by my father in the tomb. My father said that he was the "living dead" in the tomb.
It can travel back and forth in the tomb chamber with extremely heavy Yin energy without being harmed.
So whether he can go to the grave or not is entirely up to him.
He lowered his head and pondered for a long time, as if he was using his consciousness to survey the situation inside the tomb.
We didn't dare to disturb him, so we could only wait quietly.
After about one cigarette, Zhang Tianyi suddenly raised his head and said in a still low voice:
"Down here, I'm here."
Hearing this sentence, I couldn't help but feel a sense of security in my heart.
Even if a thousand-year-old rice dumpling pops out of the tomb, he will not be afraid at all.
"I'll be at the front in a moment, Tianyi will be in the middle, and Fatty, you'll be in charge of the rear!"
"Don't worry, leave it to me later!"
The three of us nodded to each other.
Then I started to inventory the equipment and prepared the flashlight, fire extinguisher and engineer shovel for going to the tomb.
After getting ready, we lined up in a "one" column and descended into the tomb one by one.
As for why I arranged the order of burial in this way, the main reason is that Zhang Tianyi is the better among the three of us.
Let him be in the middle. If one of us is in danger, he can reach out and save us.
The other one puts the fat guy at the back simply because he is bigger, so if he is put at the front.
If there are rice dumplings behind and the fat man happens to get stuck on the exit, it will be game over.
Let him be at the end of the line and sacrifice at most one person, thereby saving everyone, which is simply the best policy.
Although it is a bit unethical...
The three of us soon went to the grave.
I walked at the front with my flashlight on, and after descending into the tomb, I first entered a narrow tomb passage.
The walls of the tomb passage are made of bluestone, and the bluestone is also engraved with various runes and patterns.
The fat man said that the grenade was picked up in this tomb passage.
The tomb passage is not long, and we soon arrived at the tomb chamber.
The tomb is very open, and you can see under the flashlight that there is a sarcophagus lying across the middle of the tomb.
In the four corners of the tomb, there are four ever-burning lamps, but they are all extinguished.
The fat man took out the fire stick and lit four ever-burning lanterns.
Instantly the tomb became bright.
I also saw the entire tomb clearly.
The entire tomb is square in shape. Perhaps because it was robbed by the Japanese, the entire tomb is very empty.
It was so empty that there seemed to be only one sarcophagus.
"Look! There's a tripod there!"
Looking in the direction the fat man pointed, there was indeed a cauldron placed behind the sarcophagus.
However, it is just blocked by the sarcophagus, so it is not easy to find it without looking carefully from the front.
The fat man ran over to the cauldron, lay down on the edge, and looked into the cauldron.
"Arlene! There is a mummy in here!"
Hearing this, my expression changed. Could it be that someone got there first?
When I got closer, I saw that there was indeed a mummy inside. Just like what was recorded in my father's notes, it was also all dark green.
But it shouldn't be from ancient times.
Judging from the clothes that have not completely rotted, he should be a Japanese pawn during the Anti-Japanese War.
But why did he die in such a cauldron?
You must know that ancient cauldrons were used for sacrifices, and they were placed on the ground to worship gods.
But if it is placed in a tomb, it will be a sacrifice to the evil things in the tomb.
However, at this moment, the fat man kept groping around on the mummy, and after a while he took out a gold pocket watch from his coat.
"Hey! Look, this thing is so bright!"
The fat man was overjoyed and immediately put it on his wrist and started shaking it.
"Fat man! What did you say above! How dare you wear dead people's things? You don't want to live!"
"Don't be so reactive. I'll just wear it and not take it away. I'll see what else is in here first..."
After saying that, he jumped up and jumped into the cauldron in the blink of an eye.
"This cauldron of yours is used to offer sacrifices to the dead. What's the point of jumping into it? Do you want to be a sacrifice?"
This damn fat guy is so obsessed with money, I was so angry that I yelled at my mother!
The fat man chuckled.
"Hehe, Arlene, Fatty, I was not fooled into hearing this. You are purely feudal superstition and nonsense!"
I was immediately angered and speechless.
He groped around on the mummy for a long time and suddenly took out a jade pendant from the mummy.
"Look, what am I talking about? There are a lot of treasures here. Look at the color of this jade. It's definitely worth five of your Land Rovers."
The fat man threw the jade pendant over and said:
"When I throw this mummy out and search it carefully, I guess there are still a lot of treasures."
The fat man rubbed his hands, his eyes glowed green, he had fallen into Qian's eyes.
"Are you looking for death? Come out quickly!"
At the same time, I noticed that Zhang Tianyi's face turned pale in an instant.
He stared straight at the sarcophagus, as if something evil was about to break out of the coffin!
Suddenly, I heard a "whistle" sound.
It was like a sound coming from a sarcophagus.
I turned around and looked.
The picture in front of me will be unforgettable for the rest of my life.
That "squeaky" sound didn't come from the sarcophagus at all.
But it came from Zhang Tianyi's mouth.
Zhang Tianyi was still staring at the sarcophagus, making "swift" sounds from his mouth, as if he was negotiating with the evil things in the sarcophagus.
"Arlene, what is Tianyi shouting this time? It's so weird."
The fat man also jumped out of the cauldron at this time and asked in a low voice.
"She should be communicating with the owner of the sarcophagus."
