At that time, I was pulled by Sonnier and woke up from the nightmare.
My arms and legs seemed to be filled with black vinegar.
They were sore and heavy, and my head was hit hard.
I was still dazed.
Under the wavering beam of the flashlight, I saw Zhang Juwa still Lying on his back, his life and death unknown, there is a protruding outline of a palace maid in the mural on the side of the tomb, as if the wall is moving.
I said to Saunier: "It doesn't matter to me, let's run away quickly."
Before I finished speaking, a piece of dust suddenly fell from the top of my head.
When I looked up, I saw several sack-like objects moving high up.
I couldn't see clearly what they were.
What, but the colorful murals in the ancient tombs, They were all painted on them.
For some reason, they came alive at this time and broke free from the murals, leaving holes one after another.
The Khitan ancient tombs under the old ditch on Kangyan Mountain were well sealed, and there were no holes before we dug the tomb passage.
Through the wind, there may be ghosts in the murals that are thousands of years old After being stunned, something like a piece of wall fell in front of us.
This thing has a flat body, soft as if there are no bones, a big head and a narrow tail, and looks like a pipa.
I only have a flashlight in my hand, and it is difficult to deal with it with my bare fists. , then I grabbed the pickaxe that Zhang Juwa had thrown on the ground and swiped it fiercely, but it seemed to have hit a broken sack.
The thing had wall coverings on it and suddenly bit the pickaxe.
I was extremely shocked and hurriedly snatched it back with all my strength.
At this time, Sonnier picked up the shotgun, pointed it at the broken sack-like thing and pulled the trigger.
The sound of the shotgun blast was deafening deep in the tomb.
The thing was knocked to the ground by the shotgun, and I felt my hand loosen.
I snatched back the mountain pickaxe and looked at it.
The pickaxe head was covered with putrid ichor, and the mountain pickaxe was corroded by it.
Half of the pickaxe head melted away, and the wooden handle could no longer be connected.
I took a breath of air-conditioning, and what kind of monster was hiding in the murals of the ancient tomb that had not died for thousands of years?
Able to spit out aqua regia that is as strong as acid Sonnier was surprised: "You look like a lute snake."
I remembered what the Land Master had said about this.
According to legend, in the old days, there was a pipa snake in the primeval forests and wilderness swamps of the Northeast.
Rather than resembling a lute, the thing looked more like an incredibly large toad sapling.
After death, it turned into withered mushrooms underground.
Like a mummy, it is said that this thing is the same body from generation to generation, and the hind body is attached to the corpse of the previous body.
It lives by yang energy, and the process of birth is similar to that of a reptile hibernating.
It wakes up when the weather gets warmer.
The Khitan, Xianbei and other ethnic groups regard it as a sacred snake.
Because it has been extinct for a long time, no one can tell whether this thing is a snake or not.
The name is just a name passed down from old generations to hunters in the mountains, and some people say it is a grasshopper.
Listening to what Sonnier said now, I realized that the thing in the Khitan ancient tomb might be the Pipa snake.
Maybe the Khitans nailed the mummy of the Pipa snake to the tomb wall and painted it with white gray murals.
The underground tomb was cold and cold. , just seal the earth without moving.
If a tomb robber breaks into the underground palace, lights a candle and adds The heat of the tomb robber's breath was enough to make the Pipa snake in the mural come alive and eat the tomb robbers who disturbed the Khitan female corpse one by one.
The two masters allowed us to leave within the time of one stick of incense.
Obviously, they had known about the Khitan ancient tomb.
There is a divine snake in it, but they are worried that we will not dare to come in to rob the tomb and obtain treasures, so they deliberately hide it.
The traces in the old ditch along Kangyanzi Mountain were probably left by the Pipa Snake.
This is where the rumor that there was a local ghost eating people in the old ditch came from.
I secretly cursed the old thief for being a man who suffered a thousand cuts, but now he is trying to kill people as soon as possible.

It was important to escape.
The lute snakes in the ancient tomb murals crawled out one after another.
This thing was in front of its body.
It looks like an open broken sack, and can swallow anything much larger than it.
In Sonnier's hand is an old-fashioned shotgun.
I only hold half of the pickaxe handle, and it is absolutely difficult to fight against it.
Fortunately, most Pipas The snake has just crawled out of the mural and is not very flexible yet.
We still have a chance to escape.
Zhang Juwa had previously bumped his head against the mural, causing the Pipa snake in the wall to open its mouth and swallow half of it.
Then he was pulled out by Sonnier and I.
His upper body was bloody and bloody.
When we tried to escape, we heard him snort, which showed that he was still alive.
He was still alive, but I couldn't bear to throw him in the ancient tomb and be eaten alive by the Pipa snake.
So Nier and I immediately dragged Zhang Juwa's thighs and ran out.
We didn't have time to pick up the snakeskin bag containing the treasures of the underworld. .
I kicked over the lantern on the ground, and the oil flowed out, and a fire broke out on the ground.
I dragged Zhang Juwa upside down and took the opportunity to escape into the tomb passage.
At this time, the pipa snakes buried in the murals broke free one after another.
The Khitan Tomb is located in In a dustpan-shaped depression at the foot of Kangyan Mountain, the top is covered with silt and water plants, and below is a mound with a tomb.
The chamber was dug into a mound, with bricks and pillars on the four walls to support it.
Those Pipa snakes crawled out of the murals, leaving many large and small holes in the wall.
The muddy water outside the mound immediately poured into the ancient tomb, and underneath the ancient tomb It is also an unfathomable mire, half submerged in the mounds of mud.
A large amount of silt is suddenly poured into it, and it immediately sinks into the depths of the mire.
Sonnier and I looked at each other in despair.
We never expected that today we would be accompanying the Khitan female corpse in the ancient tomb and plunged into the depths of the swamp.
We were afraid that in another thousand years, there would be no chance of seeing the light of day again
