Chapter 13 [Undercurrent]
"Taozi, Taozi!"
The voice is a little suppressed and low, but it still does not hide the natural richness. This is the voice of a fat man. www.
I slowly opened my eyes, and the fat man's round face appeared in front of me. Seeing me wake up, he had an ecstatic look on his face.
He opened his mouth and was about to say something, when Hellen's pretty face suddenly came up to him, with a mix of anxiety and relief between his brows, showing a rare look of weakness.
"Taozi, are you okay?" Hellen asked softly, taking out a handkerchief and slowly wiping the cold sweat from my forehead.
I felt warm in my heart, struggled to stand up, smiled slightly, and said, "It's okay, you don't have to worry!"
It's indeed okay. Now, apart from my legs and feet being a little weak and my body feeling a little weak, and the coldness of my underwear soaked in cold sweat making me feel uncomfortable, there's nothing else.
Fatty supported me and looked at me for a long time. Then he felt relieved and said with a smile: "Taozi, you are really getting better and better. I'll stab you with a knife. I haven't seen you yet."
What happened? You fell down on the ground by yourself."
I rolled my eyes when I heard this. It really doesn't hurt to stand and talk! Looking at this situation, I understood. What just happened to me seemed as long as a lifetime to me, but to them, it was nothing more than a lifetime.
It's a matter of a moment.
"If you have the guts, just go and try it yourself and you will know. I'm too lazy to tell you." I poked my lips at the military thorns still inserted into the figurine, and motioned to the fat man to try it himself.
Although the experience I just had was terrifying, it was just mental torture and would not cause any physical damage, so I felt free to let Fatty try it. I would never understand what it felt like without trying it myself. Besides, there are
I'm by my side, and if I see something wrong, I'll just kick him over, and nothing will happen.
The fat man looked at me hesitantly, with distrust on his face, as if I was setting him up. I was really setting him up, and I didn't have enough confidence to turn away and not look at him. I didn't understand yet.
He, who is obsessed with saving face, wants him to admit that he is innocent, so it would be easier to kill him.
As I expected, the fat man hesitated for a while, and finally stepped forward, stretched out his hand tremblingly, and grasped the slightly trembling military thorn that was only half inside the body of the figurine.
I saw the fat man gritting his teeth, stamping his feet, and pulling hard...
Hey, it's okay. I retracted my half-kicked foot and stared at the fat man. It didn't make sense. I didn't carry it like that. Something would happen if I touched it, but nothing would happen if others touched it. Am I that bad?
The fat man was also quite confused. He looked blankly at the military spur lying on his hand, and then turned to look at me, looking at a loss. You know, even though he said something fierce, he understood in his heart.
Now, is our Lao Zhang that weak-minded person? There must be something evil up here. I guess I was prepared to be electrocuted when I touched that military thorn, but to my surprise, nothing happened.
The fat man looked at it for a long time without any clue. He suddenly raised the military thorn and stabbed it in the chest again. With a "swish" sound, it reached the hilt. Then he slowly pulled it out until the sharp tip of the military thorn came out of the figurine.
Body, he was still shaking his head, as if the old god was there.
Still no response? I slapped my forehead and was completely speechless. What kind of justice is there! These days, even ghosts are afraid of evil people.
I was still asking the sky silently, but the fat man was already walking towards me with a military thorn in his hand and a smile on his face.
Seeing the proud look on his face, I couldn't help but get angry. God is unfair! I snorted coldly and said, "Fat man, don't you feel that something is wrong with your hand?"
After hearing what I said, the fat man's face froze. He finally came to his senses and said hesitantly: "This is... my mother! This seems to be meat!"
Meat? Everyone was horrified.
"Yeah!" I nodded and said in a deep voice, "And it's human flesh!"
I kept my voice as low as possible and slowly described what I saw in the illusion.
"Those coolies who built this tomb were tortured while they were still alive, and then every piece of flesh on their bodies was chopped off and then pounded into minced meat to shape this statue of a human being. The talismans above should have been used to imprison people.
Their souls and boundless resentment, this may be a magic to protect the tomb!"
I have described it as briefly as possible, without daring to touch on the specific scenes, but despite this, everyone's faces were filled with disbelief and horror.
A gust of cold wind blew. Even though it was a hot day, everyone involuntarily tightened their clothes. Hellen even hugged his arms and leaned slightly closer to me.
Even with the fat man's nerves, he couldn't bear it anymore. He asked bitterly: "How do you know?"
I smiled bitterly, pointed at the figurines and said, "He told me that!"
"Taozi..., please, please don't talk about this." Hellen moved towards me again, and didn't stop until our arms were touching. Through the thin clothes, I could clearly feel her body.
trembling.
"It's such a tragedy. He's going to do such harm to guard the tomb. If he doesn't turn it upside down, my name will be written upside down from now on." The fat man said angrily. After finishing speaking, he still couldn't get rid of his anger, so he flew up and kicked the tomb.
The human figurine closest to him swept away.
No matter how strong the fat man was, this kick came out of anger. In addition, the human figurine was a boneless thing. After receiving the force of this kick, it broke into two pieces in the air and fell into the water with a "plop".
It's not surprising that the fat man behaved in such an angry way. I didn't know him yet. Despite his usual careless face and not caring about anything, he is the most unbearable person and has a soft heart! Unlike me, who is gentle and delicate.
, I always put on a good-natured face, but I actually have a heart of iron. As long as the people I care about are not harmed, I don’t care if the world falls apart and the sea of hatred is unstoppable.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but be glad that I was the one who saw those miserable things and not the fat man, otherwise I don't know what would happen to him! I was about to go up and comfort him, but didn't want to go over his body, and happened to see the rising water in the water.
The vision that arose.
The place where the two human figurines fell into the water was now like a spring, bubbling with gurgling water. After a while, the churning in the water became even more violent, as if it were boiling.
"This is..." They also noticed the situation in the water and got closer to observe.
"Fight for food." I spat it out word by word.
The turbulence in the water is the result of schools of fish competing for food.
"Ah! Then what we ate yesterday, wasn't it..." Hellen covered his mouth, and before he could finish speaking, he retched.
Not only her, but everyone else also figured it out. They all squatted on the ground, picked at their throats and vomited.
Can I still vomit what I ate yesterday? Even though I said that, waves of nausea still came uncontrollably. I barely suppressed the churning in my stomach and slowly sorted out my thoughts.
When there is sufficient rain every year, the water level in the cave rises and can overflow onto the beach, bringing these human figurines into the water and being eaten by fish. Along with the flesh and blood talisman, the resentment accumulated for thousands of years will also dissolve into the water, nourishing these figures.
Cave fish, therefore, are particularly delicious. Oh my God, if this were really the case, how many human figurines would have been in the cave? I dare not think about it anymore.
The corpse spots on their bodies probably come from this, using fish as a medium to transfer curses to people. This kind of transfer seems to be a kind of ancient witchcraft. I don’t know much about this, so I can’t.
Researched deeply.
The tomb builders put so much effort into raising fish, right? Most of these human figurines are incomplete. In my opinion, they should be defective products. The fish raising here is just waste utilization. The real finished products should be waiting at the front.
Following us!
After such a long time, they also vomited out the contents of their stomachs, and each of them stood precariously with livid faces.
"Don't worry about it. I don't know what dangers there are ahead. Cheer up, everyone. Let's go without delay." After saying that, I supported Hellen and got on the raft first.
Everyone staggered and jumped onto the raft one by one, as if they wanted to be as far away as possible. Looking at their looks, I sighed in my heart, is the business of reverse fighting so easy? For
To prevent theft, you can't do anything weird or tragic, so you have to be mentally prepared for it.
