Chapter 238 Snake Marsh Ghost City (Part 2) Chapter Six / Seven / Eight

Chapter 6 Orientation of Stone Statue

Suddenly my scalp numbed, my heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and I was nervous.

Pan Zi swallowed and said, "I didn't pay attention ... but definitely not on this side."

The fat man said: "His mother, there is a ghost, does it turn around by itself? Or did we touch something?"

I said, "Impossible. When I approached just now, I saw clearly. It was obviously stone. And it was a whole piece. It was unlikely that there would be an organ trap."

Pan Zi stared at the stone sculpture and said, "I didn't look carefully just now. Maybe the statue is two-sided."

"Two sides of your head. When I left, I looked back a few times. There is absolutely no face on the back of the stone statue." The fat man said. "And, this face is also a bit wrong."

Indeed, compared to the front, this face of the stone statue makes people feel weird, and also has no expression, but the expression on that face is full of gloom and resentment, which makes people shocked when they see it.

"His mother must have turned it by himself. Is this thing alive?" Pan Zidao said, "We have run into stone essence."

I said: "We're not walking in a straight line, maybe it's a matter of angle, don't scare yourself."

The fat man scolded: "The shit angle, this must be a problem. You think you are deceiving yourself."

I was a little embarrassed, the fat man said: "Would you like to go back and see?"

Pan Zi shook his head, suddenly pulled out the gun, loaded it, aimed at the giant face, and wanted to shoot.We were taken aback by this move, and almost didn't have time to respond. The fat man immediately raised the gun, slammed a bullet, and hit the dragon wood on the side of the stone statue, and the whole tree was shocked.We went to see the stone statue immediately, and we said that it was too horizontal. If it was really alive, you would not provoke things directly.

The fat man is ready to fight, his hands are touching his waist.Several people looked at the stone carving and were prepared for any changes.

However, the statue did not respond at all. The strange face was still cold and expressionless. There was no change at all. It seemed to be just an ordinary stone statue.After a long wait, Pan Zi returned his gun and said to us: "Look, it's okay, it's stone. It may be wrong. The road here is full of twists and turns. Let's go and don't bother."

I was also relieved to say that I was really scaring myself. In such a place, I was nervous, and I couldn't even judge correctly.

The fat man frowned, still not believing: "When Lao Tzu was on the sideline, he had worked on the lathe and his eyes were so poisoned. How could this be wrong?"

"The lathe is a lathe, here is a forest, the reference is complicated, it is not strange to read it wrong," I said.

Pan Zi hurried to go, but the fat man refused. He wanted Pan Zi's gun, put down his equipment, and said to us: "Don't move, I'll go and see, it's only two minutes." go.

We knew the fat man's temper, and we had no choice but to let him go.I sat down to rest and Pan Zi scolded "Trouble".

Just looking at the fat man carrying his gun on his body and walking back carefully, halfway away, he suddenly stopped and took a step back, not knowing what he saw.

Pan Zi was very impatient and shouted and asked him: "What the hell are you doing? Hurry up!"

Before he had finished speaking, the fat man suddenly turned around, turned and ran and yelled to us: "It's alive! Run!" At the same time, he saw the "face" of the strange bird in the distance. , The corners of his mouth rose incredulously, from that expressionless expression to an extremely grinning smile.

Chapter VII Rupture

My scalp felt numb, and I said that I still encountered ghosts. Is this thing really alive?

The fat man has rushed in front of us, and he did n’t stop. He pulled us and ran, yelling: "What is it!"

We took out a few steps for the fat man, but at this time, there was no response. Looking back, we saw a more bizarre scene. The face of the stone sculpture was broken, and the facial features shifted. It seemed that something was wrapped in the stone. Out of it.

"God's day!" I yelled loudly, saying that my hunch was indeed true, and immediately ran away.

We are in a large area of ​​ruins, underneath the rocks and vines, it is really difficult to accelerate, so we have to follow the mountainous terrain of the ruins, where it is convenient to run, where we fell, and our knees were broken, and we ran until we were exhausted, and then turned back Looking at it, I realized that I didn't run far, but the stone carving was still there, and I didn't chase it. This distance could not be seen clearly.

When running wildly, physical strength has pulled us out of the distance. Both Fat and Pan Zi ran farther than me and were still running forward. I stopped them.They rushed back and pulled me. I grabbed them and told them to hide first and then look at the stone carving in the distance.

They found that the stone carving did not chase them. They were quite surprised. We gasped and looked at it for a while. The stone carving in the distance was still.

We just let it down, the fat man panted like a bellows and struggled: "What's going on? Xiao Wu, it doesn't move, will this be an institution?"

"We didn't touch that thing at all, how could it be an institution? And the institution can't do that."

This is definitely not an institution. The overall stone carving, plus it is sandwiched between two giant trees, if it wants to turn its head, it will produce huge movements, and the two trees may even be twisted, so Even if there is really an organ, it can't turn, this is beyond doubt.But no matter what I think, it is obviously turned around, which is really weird.

I'm actually psychologically prepared for what might happen to the West Queen Motherland, but such a thing is still beyond my imagination.

At this time, Pan Zi took out the telescope from the equipment and looked in the direction of the statue. I quickly asked, "How is it? What is it?" But Pan Zi showed a very surprised expression and said: "I fuck !Gone!"

"What?" I immediately grabbed the telescope and looked towards it. Sure enough, the back of the stone sculpture appeared in front of us. However, the grim face disappeared.

Before I put down the binoculars, I was snatched by the fat man. My brain was in a mess. Do we just see hallucinations?Impossible, the three of us were almost scared to pee pants, so what's the matter?What about the face we just saw?Is it a ghost?

"His mother, is anyone playing with us?" The fat man stood up.

We were afraid of his recklessness, and immediately pulled him down again, where the rock was unstable, the fat man slipped a bit, and we hurried to pull him again.Unintentionally, I saw a huge human face relief on the boulder about a dozen meters behind him. It was exactly the same as what I just saw, and I looked at the front without expression, just like the expression of a corpse.

When I ran just now, I ran all the way and didn't pay attention to the remains around, so I don't know if the relief was originally there.

Fat men and Pan Zi immediately felt uncomfortable when they saw it, and they stood still one after another.The fat man said: "I rely on, this is not alive."

"More than one!" Pan Zi said, pointing to one side. When we looked at it, we found that there was a face relief on the boulders around us, ranging from three to five.But most of them are hidden by the vines. If you don't look carefully, you can't see the difference clearly. If you look carefully, you will find the scale is amazing.Almost everywhere.The place where we lie less than ten meters is a huge human face. The strange thing is that all the reliefs here are human faces, and there is no bird body pattern.

Seeing so many dull stone eyes looking at him, the fat man couldn't help panicking and picked up Pan Zi's gun. I immediately held it down and told him not to act lightly.I already feel something is wrong around, it seems that these are not reliefs.

But I hadn't waited to understand what these were. Suddenly, one of the reliefs was cracked, and then I saw a wonderful scene. The broken stones all floated up.

I watched dumbfounded and said: Do I finally get nervous?Has hallucinations begun in the daytime?He heard Pan Zi shouting, "His mother is a moth!"

I suddenly realized that when I looked closely, it turned out that the floating stones were all black moths. These human faces are arranged by these moths. No wonder they will suddenly appear and disappear suddenly.Immediately, I saw that the human face reliefs around them all began to twist and crack, and flew into the air in large numbers and scattered around.

These moths are obviously lying on the ruins here. After being disturbed by us, I do n’t know why they arranged their faces.

Soon the sky was almost covered with black debris. These moths did not know if they were poisonous. We all subconsciously covered our muzzles with our clothes. However, the use of protective colors is generally non-toxic, watching the moth gradually Scattered, like the black petals in the sky, there is quite a feeling.

The fat man grabbed a few and said he wanted to take a closer look. These moths didn't know what species they were, but a few did not.Our hearts gradually let go, which is also a false alarm.However, this is not to blame us, this situation is really terrifying.

We stayed where we were and did n’t dare to act rashly for a while. The moths flew away one after another, leaving only a few sporadic. At this time, we saw that the original ruins had changed, where the moth had just covered, A large piece of white appeared, and after a closer look, it was found that all the snakes of white flowers were decayed, entangled in the vines of the plants, and looked at the white intestines of what seemed to be animals.

The fat man jumped down, saw the vine, and scolded when he picked up one.Most of the snakes have rotted and rotted, extremely disgusting, a large number of vines interspersed through it.Looking around, the snake sloughed everywhere. There were hundreds of thousands in the gaps of the ruins and the gaps between the roots of the trees. All these moths just stopped on the snake slough, which may be attracted by the smell of the above. Here It may be the hiding place of these snakes when they shed their skin.

When we looked at it, we were all cold. This ruin is huge in scale. How many snakes need to survive here to molt to such a scale?

The fat man climbed up and showed us the snake skin he picked up. The head of the snake skin was swelled, and the shape of the cockscomb could be seen. It was indeed the skin from which the poisonous snake had shed.This snakeskin foot has a calf thickness that is thicker than the snake we saw before. It seems that the shape of the snake here cannot be estimated.

The fat man was obviously disgusted and frowned, not even looking.

Snake slough is a very expensive Chinese medicine, which can be sold for more than one hundred yuan per kilo. The scale here is at least a few tons, and the value is amazing. If the fat man knows it will not feel so disgusting.However, I just know that I have goose bumps.

Pan Zi touched the snake skin and said, "This skin is still very tough. It seems that it has just shed its skin. This is where they shed their skin. Snakes usually shed their skin where they think it is safe. If they encounter one or two here, They will think that their territory has been the most seriously violated, and they must have attacked us. I do n’t think this place should stay for long. "

I looked backwards. If I want to go backwards, I have to walk through these areas where snakes are decayed. That is extremely unpleasant, but Pan Zi ’s worry is correct.There may be those poisonous snakes in the hiding place here.

We set off immediately and walked out of the area urgently. I thought at least one or two snakes would be encountered, but the process was surprisingly smooth, and we found nothing.Recalling that it seems that snakes are rarely seen during the day, it seems that these snakes are nocturnal animals, which also shows that this forest will definitely be very lively at night.

I went deep into it and smelled a disgusting smell, which was very weird. When I walked out of the ruins and returned to the forest along the terrain, something in my stomach was already stuck in my throat.

After re-entering the rain forest, the feeling of covering the sky and the sun came again, but after a while, I felt that the air in the rain forest was simply enjoyable. The moist air with the swamp smell is much better than the snake, and soon, My feeling of vomiting disappeared.

After a period of delay in the ruins, Pan Zi walked extremely fast, but his physical strength had reached his limit, and we stopped talking.After walking for four or five hours in this way, we obviously felt that the terrain was lowering, the water in the swamp was turbulent, and the sound of waterfall rapids could be heard everywhere, but we didn't know where we were.

Pan Zi took out the dry food, and we went on while eating it. Soon afterwards, we finally encountered a waterfall, a fault with a sudden drop in terrain. I do n’t know what the ancient ruins are.

Along the way, I can almost be sure that the valley is concave. The center of the valley should be the lowest, so that all the water will flow there.I feel that the West Queen Palace should be there, but it is not important at this time.

After we passed the waterfall, the whole person was soaked. When we reached the waterfall, there was another cave. The water seemed to infiltrate into the ground, the vegetation was denser, there was almost no gap between the passages, and there was no sky at all. We were almost crowded Moving forward for a distance, he lost his sense of direction.

Uncle San, their smoke was very thin, and even though we adjusted the compass, we were worried that we would go too far. Pan Zi had to stop and climb the tree to identify the direction.

I was completely gone now. As soon as Pan Zi turned up, the fat man and I leaned against the tree and took a breath.However, it didn't take long for Pan Zi to point out the direction and said that he was close to the three uncles and let us move on.

Looking at the watch at this time, I have been walking non-stop for a day. I have never experienced such an intensive trek in such an environment. Now I can still stand, thinking that I am really strong.But now that I have exceeded my physical limit, I feel that as soon as I sit down, I can sleep.

After discussing with the fat man and Pan Zi, the march started again.The fat man looked at me with a pale face and knew that I was overstretched. However, in the current situation, it is impossible for him to come and help me. He can only talk to me non-stop and let me divert my attention.

The surrounding scenery was monotonous, and there was no topic. The fat man looked at the water and asked me: "Xiao Wu, do you say there are bright objects in these broken houses flooded by water?"

I said: "According to the exploration experience of the ancient city of Loulan, there are naturally some things, but because this ancient city is buried by water, you don't have to think about silk and bamboo slips. Pots and pans may still be left. What do you want to do? Should it be itchy again? "

The fat man said, "No itching, no itching, how can you look at your fat man and me with an undeveloped vision, this time our goal is to get a big ticket, and I will retire when the things are in hand, these bottles and cans are worth a few For a little money, we have to touch something that can be put in the Beijing Hotel for auction. "

I listened and sighed. I said so many annoying things. You still have to worry about this.

As I walked, I said that at first it was still useful. Later, I felt more and more blurred, and things in the distance could not be seen clearly, and the trees became blurred.The heart said it was going to faint, which is really embarrassing.But the fat man said: "I'm leaning on, why is it foggy?"

I set my nerves hard, rubbed my eyes and looked around, and found that it was indeed mist, not my eyes were blurred.I don't know when the mist got up. It was gray. The forest in the distance was completely invisible. The trees a few meters away had turned into strange shadows one by one.A cold breath began to envelope the surrounding forest.

I do not know whether it is excessive fatigue or the reason for the temperature drop. I began to have extremely disturbed heart palpitations, like a nightmare, entangled with the pressure on my heart.

Last night it was outside the sea of ​​trees. We did n’t know if there was fog inside the sea of ​​trees. We did n’t know if the fog was toxic, but we could n’t ignore it so much, and no gas masks were brought in.

We pulled a little bit of clothes, wet our mouths and noses, and walked some distance, and didn't feel anything uncomfortable before we put them down.But at this time, we found that the fog was so thick that we could not see anything.

Chapter 8 First Night: Heavy Fog

Originally, according to Pan Zi's estimate, if we rushed all night and walked for another five or six hours without much accident, we could reach the location of signal smoke before midnight today.But people are not as good as the sky. What I did not expect is that the temperature changes before sunset, and the sea of ​​trees will be fogged after heavy rain.

As a result, we simply cannot move forward.We relied on the north arrow to persevere in the forest for another 20 minutes. Although Pan Zi was anxious and corrupted, he dared not move on.

Although our direction can be kept right, we cannot travel in a straight line in the forest. Now the visibility is lower. It is very likely that we will not notice through the third uncle's camp, and may even have been taking the S-shaped route.

In addition to the reduced visibility, the physical exertion of traveling in such a rainforest is extremely high, and it has reached an unbearable level. If you can't walk a few meters, you must stop and gasp, and the gray surroundings are extremely disturbing.

The fog became thicker and deeper, and when we stopped, the visibility almost dropped to zero, and one meter away, we could only see one shadow.Originally it was ridiculously dark under the canopy. Now it is like night. We have to light up the miner's lamp and feel that we are not in the jungle, but in a cave full of trees.

Pan Zi said that it was impossible to reach Sanshu according to the original plan. Now I can only find a safe place to rest temporarily. Wait until the fog has subsided a little before starting to travel. Generally speaking, this fog will fall into the night. After that, it gradually dissipated.Come fast, go fast.

Pan Zi has jungle experience, and I ca n’t refute it. I really feel relieved. I feel that I have come back from the gate of the ghost door. If I want to go on, I might be overworked and exhausted.

We found a withered and decayed tree that collapsed in the mud. When this giant tree collapsed, it overwhelmed the nearby trees. The surrounding space was slightly larger, and we rested on it.At first Pan Zi said that he couldn't make a fire, but in the end it was really uncomfortable, so he collected some dry branches and vines nearby and poured oil to make a bonfire.

These dry branches and dry vines are said to be ignited, but they are all wet. At the beginning, the black smoke started. After the roast was dry, the bonfire only rose. The fat man took the opportunity to put more dry vines aside to roast. Throw it inside.

It was so exhausting that even the fattest people were silent and we rested separately.

I took off my shoes and found that the socks were worn out, like a net pocket, and the soles of the feet were all blisters.After returning from Changbai Mountain, a thick layer of old worms formed on the soles of my feet. At that time, I felt that it would never be possible to wear blisters again. I didn't expect that there would be no hardest parts on this road, only harder ones.

Massaging the muscles on the soles of the feet and calves, Pan Zi recalled the route we had just traveled, saying that the smoke could not be seen at night. Tomorrow morning the smoke would definitely be extinguished. Now we can basically clarify our position.The fat man redistributed his equipment and moved the things in my backpack into their backpack.

I'm a little embarrassed, but it's impossible to lose face at this time. I can't keep up with my physical strength. The fat man made me sleep for a while and said that I would rest tightly, the more tired I get.I didn't want to be brave and closed my eyes.

However, it was too tired at this time, and the surrounding environment was really difficult to calm down. After squinting for a few minutes, I couldn't sleep awkwardly, so I closed my eyes and calmed down.

Just a little sleepy, I heard the fat man softly ask Pan Zi: "Da Pan, to be honest, if we get to that place, your three grandpas are not there, what are your plans?"

Pan Zidao said: "If you live, you will see people, if you die, you will see corpses. Of course I have to find them. What are you doing?"

The fat man said: "Laozi is here to make a fortune, not for your third grandfather to wipe your ass. Your third grandfather is not acting according to plan now, and the whole thing has been smashed. When Xiao Wu is awake, fat grandfather, I take care of him. , But now I wo n’t say no, I ’m going to say the ugly words first, if your grandfather is gone, I ’ll take my equipment, but I ’ll just do my business, this forest is so big, I wo n’t follow you Find them. "

Pan Zi sneered: "Party? This forest is a mysterious anomaly. We haven't encountered a situation yet. If you can handle it alone? Besides, there are hundreds of kilometers outside of the Gobi. Even if you feel something alive, one person can Get out of the Gobi? "

The fat man laughed, didn't answer, and said: "What kind of person are you fat man, these old men have their own plans, talk to you in advance, you don't have to worry about your work." However, listening to his tone, it seems right This matter is well established.

Pan Zi shook his head and sighed, "I don't force you to get this thing, you have to get the equipment, you have to follow you, but don't expect us to save you when you are in trouble, don't expect to get a copy of the things we touch. . "

"You still bluff me, you don't ask me, bluff fat man, I'm an ancestor." Fatty said, "Fat man I want to understand, this time your three lords came in, they didn't come to touch the weapon at all. When I feel good things, I can only do it alone, and I have to play like the younger brother. The first two brothers dumped us, maybe we touched our brains, and we do n’t know. "

I couldn't help laughing when I listened, and I said that I can be sure that the stuffy oil bottle dumped us not for money.

When the fat man saw that I hadn't slept, he didn't say anything. He just said: "What do adults listen to and what children listen to, go, sleep, and sleep."

I feel that the fat man knows that I am sleeping, there is something in it, it should be for me, but I do n’t know what he wants to say, it seems to remind me that the stuffy oil bottle disappears every time. Is it because he noticed What do you want to tell me alone?

However, on this occasion, I can't avoid Pan Zi. I can only do nothing and wait for the opportunity. I am too tired to think about these complicated things.

After that, everyone fell into silence again. I leaned on a branch next to me and gradually calmed down. I slept to the past and didn't even know how to fall asleep.

I should have had some dreams during the period, but I slept too much and the dreams were all confused.I didn't know how long I slept. I woke up and found that the fog around me was much weaker. I looked at my watch and slept for less than three hours.

I slept quite well and recovered a lot of energy all at once, but my body was sore like rust. It looked worse than before. I also thought that this kind of muscle soreness would never happen again in the future. There is still no way to escape.

I moved a bit, relieved my muscles and bones, and felt much better. I saw the fat man sitting there, looking up at a tree.Pan Zi was not seen all around.

Strange in my heart, I asked him, "What about Panzi?"

The fat man immediately made a gesture of not speaking to me and pointed to the tree.

I pressed my waist, stood up with the pain in my body, walked to his side, and looked up. I saw the blurry shadow of the moon in the mist, there seemed to be someone on the tree, and Pan Zi seemed to have climbed on the tree.

I asked what happened, this kid is learning monkey now and likes to rest in the tree.The fat man whispered: "There was some movement just now, he climbed up to see."

Before the words were finished, the tree shushed, let us not speak.

We quickly calmed down and looked at him. After waiting for a while, we saw that Pan Zi was gesturing towards us, and let us immediately climb the tree.(To be continued, if you want to know the future, please visit www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!)
