Ghost Blows Out the Light

灯影

The shadow of the candle flickered in the corner of the Hades, making the corner of the wall flickering. A huge and pale human face appeared on the edge of the shadow, and his body was hidden in the darkness beyond the candle's lighting range. .

Big Gold Tooth Fatty and I stood at the stone gate that connects the front hall and the Hades. The Hades is so bright that my wolf-eyed flashlight couldn’t reach there. Because of the distance, the face was even more blurred. , ghostly.

When we first entered the Hades, we carefully and thoroughly looked through every corner of the Hades. At that time, there was nothing in the Hades, only the unpainted paintings on the four walls. The lady in the palace definitely does not have this huge face, although it is relatively far away, we cannot see clearly whose face is that which appears in the corner through the candle.

The two sides confronted each other for a while, but there was no movement from the other side. The fat man lowered his voice and asked me: "Old Hu, I don't think the guy on the other side is a good guy. It's not suitable to stay here for a long time. Let's get out."

I also whispered to Fatty and Big Gold Tooth: "Don't act rashly, first find out whether he is a human or a ghost."

I can't tell whether the owner of the face on the opposite side is a man or a woman, old or young. There are no coffins in this Hades hall, so naturally there will be no zongzi. It is possible that the other party came in from a robber's hole while we were in the front hall. Yes, not everyone dares to drill into this robbery hole, maybe the other party is also a gold-motivated captain.

Thinking of Captain Mojin, I immediately thought of the senior who built the Fishbone Temple. Could it be...he hasn't died yet?Or he couldn't find a way out and was trapped to death near here. What we see now is his undead?

It's no big deal if it's a ghost, we all have the golden Buddha Jade Avalokitesvara to protect us, and if the other party really touches the golden school captain, he has a bit of a relationship with us, and maybe he can point us out.

Regardless of whether the other party is a human or a ghost, we have to break this deadlock first. It won't do us any good if we go on like this. Thinking of this, I said loudly to the person in the southeast corner with my muzzle: "Hei Zhe Tan Long carried Baogai, when you move mountains and open hills, there are holes in the sky, the stars suddenly open, and the Big Dipper gathers the southern light."

I said these few words in a very polite manner, probably meaning that they all ate in the pot of Mojin. Since they bumped into each other, there must be one who came first, and we were the last ones. , just walk.

As the saying goes, "360 lines, every line of work leads to the champion", these 360 ​​lines refer to all kinds of livelihoods in the world. In this world, you must have a skill to gain a foothold in society, earn a living with your ability, and don't have to worry about starving to death. Frozen to death in the street.

In addition to these 360 ​​lines, there are also eight other lines, which belong to the alternative, that is, they are not included in the list of businessmen, and they are not included in the category of workers, peasants, soldiers, students, and businessmen.

The state has state laws, and there are rules and regulations. Even the beggars are governed by the head of the beggar gang. The secret and mysterious business of Dao Dou has more rules, such as a tomb. , and then come out again, a Captain Mojin is never allowed to go back and forth several times in a robbery hole.

You are only allowed to go in once and come out once at most. After all, it is a resting place, not your own backyard. There are too many rules and regulations like this.

There is one of them, that is, between fellow travelers, two passers-by fell in love with a hill gate, and they both wanted to come and move the mountain armor, so whoever arrives first counts, and those who come later can also enter, but if there is anything, it should be done first. Those who go in choose.

Because Captain Mojin has strict rules and regulations, he is different from ordinary tomb robbers. He only takes one or two things from an ancient tomb before stopping, and the burial objects in the noble tombs are very rich, so there will not be too much conflict with each other. conflict.

Only one or two things are taken from a tomb. The origin of this rule is to avoid doing too much work, which cannot accommodate such a large pile of wealth, so as not to cause fire.

Another important reason is that no matter how many ancient tombs there are in the world, there will be a time when the excavation is over. You can't do everything. If you make a fortune, you have to leave a way out for your colleagues.

This is the biggest difference between the professional Mojin captain and the tomb robbers. Tomb robbers often fight because of one or two artifacts, and brothers and sisters are everywhere, because they rarely find large tombs and do not understand the meaning of them. Terrible, if you don't know that the bright weapon is the culprit, if you take too much, you will suffer retribution.

During the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Mengde set up the positions of Faqiu and Mojin to pay for the army. In fact, the ranks of General Zhonglang and Lieutenant were set up by Cao Cao. At the beginning, there were four Daedou sects in the world, but the disciples of these sects acted secretly, most of the world didn't know about it, and there were no records in the history books. The three Ling sects have been lost, so they were cut off, leaving only the Mojin sect.

In the school of touching gold, it is not necessary to be taught by a master to be regarded as a disciple. He has a whole set of special marks, incisions, and techniques. As long as he understands the rules and terms, he is all in the same school. Only the masters of Captain Mojin can do it. I learned part of these things from my grandfather before, and part of them from Shirley Yang on the way back from the desert.

So I think that since we are of the same family, there is nothing to discuss. Of course, this is on the premise that the other party is still a living person. up.

After I finished speaking, I waited for the other party to respond. Under normal circumstances, if that person is also an expert in fighting, and I have given the other party enough face, I think he will not make things difficult for us, even if he came here decades ago. The soul of Captain Mojin should not embarrass us.

However, after waiting for a long time, the other party did not respond at all, and the candle was more than half burned. The person in the southeast corner of the Hades was still as indifferent as before, motionless as if carved in clay or stone.

I thought to myself, don’t be a person in the industry anymore, and I couldn’t understand my lip diction, so I repeated it loudly in vernacular, but the other party still didn’t make any movement.

Now we are all a little hairy, what we are most afraid of is this kind of silent silence. I don’t know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd. If we want to leave the Hades, we have to go to the entrance of the robbery cave in the middle of the Hades, but Deng Ying The one behind looked at us straight, not knowing what to do, and we were not sure of the other party's intentions, so we dared not rush over.

I thought about it, maybe this idea is not Captain Touching Jin, but the owner of this ancient tomb, that would be difficult, and I shouted at the southeast corner of the Hades: "Hey...the one on the opposite side , What are you holy, we just passed by here, saw a robbery cave, so we went in to have a look, it's not just for the sake of it."

Seeing that the other party was still silent, the fat man also became anxious, and shouted: "We are going back and forth, if you don't speak again, we will take it as your acquiescence, don't regret it when the time comes..."

Big Gold Tooth whispered to us from behind: "I said Mr. Hu, Fatty, could it be the figures painted on the wall over there? We didn't see clearly. The light from this candle is so faint, it's easy for me to be dazzled by it." .”

When he said this, both of us were even more confused, and we doubted our memory for a while. Damn, if this is the case, then we will lose face. I almost scared myself to death in the past few minutes, but It really doesn't look like a painting.

This Hades, including the entire ancient tomb, is very evil. We did not find anything when we first entered the Hades, but when we entered the robbery cave, there were no huge stones on the way. Something will suddenly appear out of thin air, is it a person?Is it a ghost?Is it a demon?Or is it the painting on the tomb wall as Da Jinya guessed?

Seeing that the candles on the ground were about to burn to the end, and we couldn’t run any longer, I secretly pulled out the paratrooper knife in my hand. This kind of knife was imported from Russia into China, and it was specially used to cut ropes, such as airborne soldiers After skydiving, the parachute is hung on the tree, and the person is suspended in the air. You can use this special knife to cut the parachute rope. This knife is very short and sharp. The handle is long and the blade is short. It is very sharp and very convenient to wear. Shaanxi is in the interior, so we didn't dare to wear daggers, so we wore a few short paratrooper knives for self-defense.

Holding the Golden Buddha in my other hand, I winked at the fat man and the big gold tooth, and went over to see what the other was. The fat man also pulled out the engineering shovel, and handed the two big white geese to the big gold tooth.

The three of us formed an inverted triangle formation, Fatty and I were in front, Big Gold Tooth was leading the goose, holding a flashlight at the back, and walked slowly towards the candle in the southeast corner step by step.

Every time I take a step, my hand holding the paratrooper knife breaks out in cold sweat. At this time, I can’t tell whether it’s fear or nervousness. I even hope that the other party is a rice dumpling, jumping out and having a hearty fight with me. Standing in a dark corner with a spooky expression without saying a word, he is more bloody than a hairy rice dumpling.

Just when the person on the opposite side was about to enter the lighting range of our wolf-eye flashlight, the candle on the ground burned to the end, and a puff of blue smoke rose, and it was quietly extinguished.

As the candle was extinguished, the face behind the shadow of the lamp immediately disappeared into the darkness.
