Chapter 394: The Clasp of the Jade Belt
If the camels don't go, we can't go, the wind and sand are getting bigger and bigger, and the clothes on our bodies are also blown to 90 degrees, hunting in the wind and sand, like countless hands are dragging us into the air.
Cheng Xinghe tied up his horse, grabbed the camel tightly, and his face became the same color as the yellow sand: "Fuck, I knew that I was going to die, but I didn't expect to die in this place, and I had to be with those dead people—I knew that I had climbed and made friends with them just now, and I was good neighborly and friendly." ”
Okay, you're big, when are you still in the mood for a crow's mouth.
And the big black mole obviously couldn't stand it, so he yelled at Lao Xu loudly, making Lao Xu hurry up and think of ideas.
But now that the black wind and sand are in front of him, Lao Xu can't take care of them anymore, but lies on the ground and doesn't get up, keeps saluting, and chanting the local dialect, which means to pray for forgiveness from the god of Khalba.
The strong man is also impatient, but it is useless to be impatient, we are like ants thrown into the toilet, facing the black wind and sand, there is no chance to struggle.
The wind was getting stronger, the soles of my feet were getting more and more vain, and the flesh was about to be washed off the skeleton, and the dumb Baran grabbed me and asked if I could lie down with the camel, but it was not the same way, it was like an ostrich burying its head in a pit, it was simply self-deception—I had heard before that many travelers were buried alive in the sand.
The strong man knew that I had made up his mind, and when he saw that Lao Xu didn't take care of it, he yelled at me: "Then what do you say?" ”
My brain was spinning rapidly, and I suddenly found that the surrounding sand dunes were actually a "jade ribbon shape".
I am a northerner, and I have never left the county much in my life, so the feng shui I see is mainly mountains and rivers, about the desert, the old man only mentioned one mouth, saying that the sand dunes become a jade belt, what is the next sentence? Damn, I can't remember, I just remember that he said later that it was useless to tell you, and no one in the desert invited you to see Feng Shui.
And at this time, Bai Huoxiang suddenly hugged me and said loudly: "Li Beidou, now that we are going to die, I am unwilling to say something to you." ”
What?
Ah, I remembered coldly, that sentence is that the sand dunes become jade belts, and the buckles are buried underneath!
Buckle ...... Coincidentally, the buckle of this "jade belt" is five steps square under my feet!
But now the wind and sand are so big, you can't bury it in one step, let alone five steps......
You'll have to try anyway.
So I didn't hear what Bai Huoxiang said, I buckled her on my chest with my backhand, and stepped over to the buckle, the big black man and the strong man saw me running over there, and they were a little surprised, dumb Balan squinted his eyes in the wind, and barely saw clearly: "Brother, what are you doing?" ”
"Hoo ......"
The wind and sand became more intense, and with a "snap" sound, a kettle tied to the camel's head was directly rolled up to the sky, and it was gone, probably because the god of Khalba took a fancy to soak wolfberries.
Four, three, two, one...... It took out my strength to breastfeed, and I walked to that position, but that position was a small piece of unremarkable sand, and I couldn't see anything unusual, and the white herb struggled out of my arms, puzzled, and didn't know what I was going to do.
I yelled at her, "Dance with me." ”
Bai Huoxiang was stunned for a moment, and even thought that she had heard it wrong—what does this mean by having no head or end?
But she really watched me jump up and down on a patch of sand, and could only show a strange expression and jump with me.
Under the weight of more than 200 pounds of two people, there was a reaction under the soles of the feet, and the soles of the feet were loosened, as if something was broken by the weight of the two of us.
There are long stone steps at the bottom, I protected Bai Huoxiang's head, I was knocked several times, my eyes were full of Venus, so I barely stood firm, raised my head, and the sand on my head was still falling continuously, and Cheng Xinghe reacted quickly, seeing that I and Bai Huoxiang suddenly disappeared, I immediately followed, and I saw that there was a hole in the ground below, and I tried my best to bring our camel team down.
This place is already under the sand, and of course it can hide from the black wind and sand.
This can make Cheng Xinghe very happy, dumb Balan is also happy, Lao Xu is look confused, after coming in, he suddenly reacted, and while going down the steps, he made a strange salute, kissed the steps, and said thank you for the manifestation of the god Khalba.
Cheng Xinghe was very dissatisfied with this, saying that Lao Xu couldn't figure it out - it was obviously a seven-star manifestation.
The strong man and the black man were not stupid, and did not wait for our invitation, and the boss unceremoniously followed, and when the last camel came down the steps, I turned back and touched it for a long time, and touched a raised stone, and when I broke it open against the stone, a stone slab rose up violently, blocking the opening.
At this moment, the sound of the wind roaring outside was blocked out.
The last rays of light were cut off, and in the darkness, a group of people exhaled in unison.
Old Xu Yao kept talking, and pulled us, saying that this life was rewarded by the god of Khalba, let us hurry up and salute, I didn't bother to respond, and turned on the flashlight.
When we looked around, we were all stunned, this place was so big, even a bit like a street, with a horse-drawn carriage running in the middle.
Lao Xu followed and looked at it and muttered: "It's really the manifestation of Khalba City-this, isn't this Babuletan?" ”
Cheng Xinghe asked, "What kind of blanket is this?" ”
Lao Xu sighed and said cautiously, this is the largest Letan built in order to avoid the black wind and sand when Khalba City was still prosperous, but in a black wind and sand, it disappeared and never appeared again.
There are even those who suspect that this Babulitan is a legend, after all, no one has ever seen it.
As he spoke, Lao Xu also took out a flashlight and shone it around.
It was empty, flanked by various caves, and inside each cave there were some suspicious black shadows.
Seeing those black shadows clearly, Lao Xu was even more excited, and bowed down to the cave, saying that it was really the manifestation of the god of Khalba, which was a miracle.
The light pillar of the flashlight swept on it, and we saw that in those caves, there were some strange statues, teeth and claws, all of which had never been seen before.
The black man and the strong man didn't believe it even more, and directly squeezed in with the camel team domineeringly, and began to set up camp and repair.
We almost put our lives into it just now, and we were so tired that Cheng Xinghe couldn't help it for a long time, and he started the idea of dried fish again, and I beat him down.
Lao Xu was very dissatisfied when he saw that we did not salute, and he was muttering again, saying that if the life given by the Khalba God is not cherished, it will attract other disasters.
At this time, Bai Huoxiang was holding a blanket, and I suddenly remembered that before entering this entrance, she said that she would tell me a word before she died, so she asked what the hell was it?
As soon as I looked up like this, I saw that her nose was red, and I remembered it instantly, and I was afraid that I was too strong when I pressed her against my chest, and I couldn't help but be very embarrassed.
Bai Huoxiang was in a state of mind, and she didn't know what she was thinking, but when she heard me ask, the red spread from her nose, and her whole face turned red, and she turned around and said coldly: "I forgot." ”
It was normal to be so frightened just now.
At this time, Cheng Xinghe said happily on the side: "Qixing, come on, there is Chai He here, damn, finally there is no need to open the air, it is not beautiful to light the fire as well as the New Year." ”
I immediately followed, but the flashlight lit up those things, and Cheng Xinghe's scalps and I all exploded.
That's not Chai He—it's human bones.
Those people don't know how many years they have been lying here, and the clothes on their bodies have long been rotten, at this time, Dumb Balan became excited on the other side: "Brother, there is a big zapong here!" ”
The large Zapong is a large, thorny plant used for fuel in the region, and is believed to have been left behind by the ancestors when Letan provided a place of refuge.
We didn't want to look at it more, so we wanted to go to Dumb Balan to make a fire, but the light of the flashlight flashed so that I instantly felt that something was wrong—this time, I could see that the posture of the corpses was a little strange.
Their bodies twisted, as if they had died a desolate death after a violent struggle.
Strange, how did you die?
If you die of starvation, you should die very weak, so that you will not be so miserable. It doesn't look like he was killed, the skeleton is intact, and there are no obvious injuries.
Cheng Xinghe guessed my mind and said, "Did you say you were suffocated?" ”
Suffocation is indeed painful, but after we came in, the air was very circulating, and it should have been reserved for ventilation, not suffocation.
Cheng Xinghe followed me to take a closer look, and said that it might be a competition for resources and was poisoned, but before the words fell, both of us suddenly widened our eyes.
I saw that there were many holes on the white bones of these corpses, densely packed.
At first glance it looks like it has been sprayed by ghosts, but on closer inspection, the holes are much larger than the gravel, and even more terrifying—the holes are not from the outside in, but from the inside out.
It's as if a lot of things have come out of their marrow.
We both looked at it, and we both got goosebumps.
At this time, with the sound of "Peng", Dumb Balan and White Huoxiang had already collected the big Zha Peng and lit it, and the orange-red firelight jumped, and it was suddenly much warmer inside.
The strong men were still the same as before, they lit a fire not far from us, and looked at us with fierce eyes.
Cheng Xinghe and I combined, if you come, you will be safe, no matter how weird it is, it is better than being swept away by the black wind and sand-I later realized how ridiculous this idea is.
The mellow and sweet hot cheese tea went down, we recovered our health value, and the whole person was in good spirits, Cheng Xinghe took a poker and fought the landlord, while Lao Xu held the hot cheese tea and looked around.
Lao Xu still understands this art?
I followed Lao Xu's line of sight, and I also saw that on the floor and on the wall, there were some strange mantras, very similar to hieroglyphs, I could only barely make out, some looked like the sun, some looked like stars, astrology charts?
I was interested, so I asked Lao Xu, what does this mean?
Lao Xu frowned and said, "It's strange - it stands to reason that this should be a hymn engraved to the god of Khalba, but it's not like it, but it looks like ...... Seal the evil mantra. ”
Evil?
