Chapter 40: Human Skin Evil Shadow

Looking along the flashlight, I saw a palm tightly dug into the pillar of the archway, with half of the forearm attached to the back, and a gray sleeve on the ground. The body was not attached to the back of the forearm, although it was already a bone.

But from the analysis of the degree of decay and the color of the bones, it was obvious that it was not as old as the Later Jin Dynasty. Zhang Guozhong squatted down and carefully looked at the fracture of the forearm bone. It looked like it had been chopped off with a sharp weapon. A bloody scene immediately emerged in his mind.

In front of Zhang Guozhong, a half-dead man was being dragged down the stone steps behind the archway. When he reached the archway, he did not forget to grab the pillar of the archway with his hands, but the person who dragged him cut off the arm holding the pillar with a knife.

"Brother, whose arm do you think this is?" Zhang Guozhong was furious. He wanted to ask "Is it the arm of a tomb robber?" but ended up asking "Whose arm is it?"

"I'm not from the public security bureau..." As he said this, Old Liu Tou also squatted down, "It's weird, it doesn't look like it was chopped with a knife from the Qing Dynasty..."

"Mr. Liu, I don't understand what you mean..." Qin Ge said, "Does the edge of a knife also have age?"

"Look, the fractures of the bones are all aligned..." Old Liu Tou carefully studied famous weapons and sharp blades. For him, this bit of common sense seemed to be nothing. (China's sword-making technology is the same as other special skills. The later the era, the more advanced it is.

, the more unique skills are lost, the real historical famous swords have never appeared again after the Tang Dynasty. Before the Tang Dynasty, China's smelting technology even impressed modern people. The sword of King Gou Jian of Yue has been used for more than two thousand years.

It is still extremely sharp despite the years. The "chromium salt oxidation" technology used on its surface is a modern anti-oxidation technology invented by Germany in 1937 and the United States in 1950. However, such sword-making technology was gradually lost after the Tang Dynasty.

The Tang Dynasty's swords were unsatisfactory in terms of smelting technology, oxidation resistance, toughness, metal strength and many other aspects. When cutting human bones, they would at most be "chopped" or "smashed", and the broken bones would feel very uneven.

, some "mixed blades" even have to be chopped several times, just like the owner of a pork stall using a kitchen knife to repeatedly chop pig bones. However, the half-cut bone in front of you has neat fractures and no unevenness. It is obvious that it was chopped with a precious blade.

)

Qin Ge touched the section of the broken bone with his hand, then looked at the dark stone steps, his face turned pale. "Cannibalism?" Qin Ge thought of the two ancient corpses from the Ming Dynasty at "Xingshu Terrace"

.

"It's not killing each other, it's a deliberate sneak attack." Zhang Guozhong said, "If you are fooled, it is absolutely impossible to know how to cut off your hands. (There is no reason for people to go crazy after being knocked out of the body. Only with huge strength, even if they can't pull it,

I didn’t have the consciousness to cut my hand with the knife when I was doing it, at most I just kept pulling hard)”

Old Liu also nodded, thinking that this was indeed a deliberate sneak attack. Logically speaking, Shi Jingtang should not have done anything fancy in the formation. Those nine platforms were already ruthless enough.

, no matter how complicated it is, it will be troublesome to get the treasure by yourself. It seems that this may be caused by tomb robbers in the Qing Dynasty who attacked their accomplices in order to steal the treasure.

Although there should be no danger according to reasoning, Old Liu Tou still stood up and made a "please" gesture towards Qin Ge, implying that he should go first. Qin Ge did not hesitate, took out the butcher's knife, turned on the flashlight, and said nothing.

Not to mention going down the stone steps.

About forty or fifty meters down, the end of the stone steps suddenly opened up. It was a huge stone chamber. It was still a large cave that was half artificial and half natural. The floor was paved with square bricks, but the four walls seemed not to have been treated much.

It is a natural rock wall.

Not even two steps forward, Qin Ge suddenly stopped, squatted down, slowly raised his head, and looked around with his flashlight.

"Master Qin, are your shoelaces loose?" Old Liu Tou seemed to be fighting Qin Ge to the end.

"Headmaster Zhang... do you really think that... the severed hand just now... was not caused by gods and ghosts...?" Qin Ge's tone was a little trembling, but he was still trying to stay calm.

"What...?" Old Liu Tou quickly stepped forward and saw a corpse on the ground that had turned into white bones. But what was shocking was that the bones were chopped into several sections with a knife, and each knife cut off the entire corpse.

, the interval may be long or short, to be precise, it looks like he was hacked to death by a group of people.

"Damn it, even if there is a deep hatred for annihilating the family, there is no need to avenge it here..." Zhang Guozhong looked at the bones carefully and murmured. At this moment, Old Liu Tou took out the compass, but the pointer did not react at all, "Guozhong

Ah, let's not scare ourselves, maybe the person who killed the person has suddenly gone crazy..." Old Liu started to make random guesses.

"Then why did he go crazy suddenly?" Qin Ge really got to the bottom of it.

"How the hell do I know why he's crazy!?" Old Liu Tou also became impatient.

At this moment, Zhang Guozhong stood up and walked slowly to the side. The visibility in this large cave was not very good, and it was also foggy, but it was much better than the original Xingtai. With this American flashlight, the visibility was about

It's about ten meters long.

As soon as Zhang Guozhong left, Old Liu Tou and Qin Ge also followed. This cave was much larger than the Zhentai Cave they had visited before. After walking along the cave wall for at least thirty meters, a layer of light suddenly appeared in the flashlight.

layers of boxes.

Walking to the box, Zhang Guozhong checked the box carefully and found no mechanism connected to it. He pulled out Qin Ge's pistol, smashed the severely corroded chain with a single shot, kicked open the lid of the box, and used his hand to

There was a flash of lightning, and the three of them were immediately stunned. There was a whole box of gold bricks in the box.

Old Liu Tou couldn't help but took a piece and weighed it. It weighed ten kilograms. The folds on his face immediately turned into a slit with a smile. "Guozhong... look at this..." He put the gold brick into his pocket.

Here, Zhang Guozhong is not a saint, so he couldn’t help but take a piece and weigh it in his hands. Well, if you build two Tongtian Temples, you will be rich...

Qin Ge was not interested in gold, but continued walking along the rows of boxes by himself, shining his flashlight around from time to time. His goal was not the gold bricks, but the national treasure seal. As he walked,

, Qin Ge's flashlight suddenly focused on a human-shaped black shadow, and Qin Ge was also startled. "Who!?" Qin Ge shouted, took four or five steps back, and his whole body suddenly went crazy.

A layer of cold sweat.

After loading two gold bricks, Lao Liutou was also worried. Her mother's thing was too heavy. With the rag bag she was wearing, she could hardly carry it anymore after loading two gold bricks. She thought that the current banknotes were more convenient.

, at this time, I suddenly heard Qin Ge shouting, which shocked the old man. He didn't care about loading the gold bricks anymore, and hurriedly took out the compass, only to see the compass pointer swinging wildly, one circle from time to time.

It was spinning in a circle, like some kind of pointer that was constantly spinning before the plane crashed. Old Liu Tou had never seen the compass spin like this in so many years since his debut. He was so frightened that he immediately threw away the third gold brick in his hand, took out his dagger, and

Shouted Zhang Guozhong's name, "Guozhong! There's a situation! Stop taking it!"

When he heard the shouting, Zhang Guozhong had already arrived next to Qin Ge and shined a flashlight on the figure in front of him. There seemed to be no movement.

"What the hell...?" Zhang Guozhong also had a layer of sweat on his forehead.

"Guozhong, please be careful, this cave is too evil...!" At this moment, Lao Liu Tou also caught up and looked around with a flashlight, almost leaving his soul.

"What the hell is this...?" Wherever Old Liu Tou shined his flashlight, many identical figures appeared.

Everyone has a fearful mentality. Old Liu Tou and Zhang Guozhong know how much they weigh. Maoshan Shu has been passed down to this day. There are more things that have been lost than things that have been passed down. There are more extinct materials than can be found. In the past,

Master Maoshan, there are more than one person who has fallen into the hands of ordinary evil spirits and beasts, let alone the treasure cave he is in now, which was built with all the efforts of the Jin Dynasty. With these two actions, he has been able to survive until now.

Great fortune telling.

The three of them each had a living talisman affixed to their bodies by Old Liu. They stood back-to-back and shined a flashlight on the figure opposite them. They saw that the figure seemed to be slowly approaching. Under the flashlight, it seemed to be as thin as a kite, and the two figures were as thin as a kite.

Feet in the air.

"Headmaster Zhang... what is this?" Qin Ge was sweating on his head. He put the flashlight under his arm and pulled out the pistol with a squeak. Although he knew that this thing didn't work, as a modern person, holding a gun in

After all, it is more reliable in hand than a butcher knife.

"It seems to be the Eight Immortals Game..." Zhang Guozhong replied. This was what Ma Zhenren mentioned when explaining the game of Jiangsu when he broke Zhao Le's "Three Evil Game". In addition to the "Mass Evil Game", there is another kind of Jiangsu.

The evil curtain game specially used in "cave tombs" is called "Eight Immortals Game", also known as "Roupi Game". As the name suggests, it is a curtain game with human skin descending. The layout is in Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Li,

Gen, place a piece of human skin in each of the eight directions. If there are any intruders, they will be inexplicably covered by these human skins. If there are any accomplices, they will see their companions suddenly covered with a layer of human skin and turn into

The other person doesn't know how scared he will be. Although the "Eight Immortals Game" is only a legend, the role of this tomb game is definitely not just scary.

"Isn't that... something about surrendering?" Old Liu Tou has also heard of such a thing as the "Eight Immortals Bureau", but the thinking of the elderly is always more conservative. The technique of surrender is something that came out in the late Song Dynasty, and here is the post-Jin Dynasty

There was a gap of nearly a thousand years between the treasures, so I didn’t think about it that way. Although I couldn’t be sure whether it was a magic trick or not, and I didn’t know much about it, judging from the wild swings of the compass pointer, I encountered more things this time than before.

It’s amazing, it can even be said that it’s not on the same level.

"Calm down... you must be calm..." Zhang Guozhong kept reminding himself that this is the way to face danger that his master has always taught him. There is a way to solve everything. Thinking calmly is the only way to solve the crisis.

"We must first find out how big this hole is!" Zhang Guozhong gritted his teeth and said. Although it is difficult to explain the appearance of the descending technique in the late Song Dynasty in the treasures of the later Jin Dynasty, at this moment, these few shadows that look like floating human skin can only be temporarily classified as "Eight Immortals Bureau"

"To deal with it, if this is really the "Eight Immortals Bureau", and if you want to find the "center of the Bureau", you must understand the shape and size of the tomb.

Hearing what Zhang Guozhong said, Qin Ge immediately took out a strange "barrel gun" from his bag. After a while of hurried work, he "pounced" on the opposite side, and a flare immediately illuminated half of the cave. At this time,

Qin Ge fired another shot diagonally forward. The flares were powerful. At this moment, the power of the military flashlights of the three people was reduced, and they could only illuminate about ten meters at most. But as soon as these two flares were fired, the layout of the entire cave was revealed.

In front of the three people, it turns out that the hole is not a square as the three blind people guessed like an elephant, but an irregular figure similar to the shape of a cat's paw. At this moment, the three people are standing on the side of the "cat's paw", looking forward, but

Thirty meters out, there are layers upon layers of boxes, which must be gold bricks, ranging from hundreds to dozens of tons. On the middle finger of the "Cat Scratch", there is a dark square door, which must be the "entrance"

”.

Some people say that money can make people forget death, and Old Liu Tou is a typical example. At this time, Old Liu Tou's attention had long been diverted from the few figures around him. Seeing so many "gold boxes", he was stunned for a while

I was excited, and then felt depressed for a while. In my imagination, the treasure cave should be full of antiques, calligraphy, paintings, pearls and jade, but now it seems that it really fits the saying "Antiques in prosperous times and gold in troubled times". If these boxes are full of

It's gold. If you can take away one or two pieces, it's good. Alas... just cry while guarding the golden mountain...

At this time, Qin Ge also shifted his attention from the figure to the surroundings of the treasure cave, hoping to use flares to find a place where the national seal might be passed. Only Zhang Guozhong carved the outline of the hole on the ground with a dagger as quickly as possible.

After taking a careful look at the shape and measuring it with his fingers, Zhang Guozhong tugged at the corner of Lao Liutou's clothes while sweating coldly, "Brother... look at this terrain..."

As he was talking, Qin Ge suddenly noticed a stone platform in the middle of the treasure cave, with a jade box placed on it.

"Headmaster Zhang! What is that?" Qin Ge pointed at the stone platform.

As soon as Qin Ge spoke, Zhang Guozhong did not look at the stone platform. Instead, he thought of the figures just now, raised his head suddenly, and looked around. Strangely enough, the flare illuminated the treasure cave, and the figures were unconsciously there.

Disappeared, and after a few seconds of distraction, when the three of them looked for those figures again, they had disappeared.
