Chapter 708 Enemies Gather
Chapter 708 Enemies gather together
Compared with the long-lasting flames on the coffin platform, this tomb seems too small. Even if the fire has been extinguished, the scorching heat cannot be dissipated for a while. When you approach the coffin platform, you will feel uncomfortable under your feet.
The slipperiness was caused by the heat melting the soles of the shoes. Fortunately, the military boots purchased by Brother Yaozi were thick enough and the leather was durable, so the soles would not be burned through.
With such heat, I couldn't immediately jump onto the coffin platform. I carefully picked a place to stay and walked around the coffin platform to observe.
"Hey, it turns out to be this old onion!!"
Suddenly, Lao Bai, who was opposite me, shouted at the top of his lungs, his tone was sharp and full of ridicule.
In an instant, everyone gathered towards the other end with a roar.
However, they saw that after the melted lead coffin, only a huge silver-gray lump remained, like a low shelter in the jungle. Under the melted lead coffin, a small heart was exposed.
The head, looking at the situation, is somewhat similar to the Monkey King being crushed under the Wuzhi Mountain.
As for the little head that was exposed, it was bald and dark, like a burnt potato. There was something like rolled skin hanging on the face. The eyes rolled around from time to time, but there was no emotion shown.
When I came out, all that was left was despair.
"You're right, there really is someone in the coffin."
Wan Niang'er glanced at me and raised the corner of her mouth: "And he's an acquaintance!"
But no, the person in the coffin is the master Shen Laowu mentioned, the golden toad that protects this tomb!!
Lao Bai felt cramped the most and squatted down in front of the old man. It was probably because the ground was too hot and his crotch felt uncomfortable due to the roasting. He touched his crotch, quickly moved to another place, and then joked: "Hey, Master,
Isn’t it hot in there?”
The old man rolled his eyes, moved his head slightly, and ignored Old Bai.
I rubbed my chin and admired the old man's miserable condition, feeling quite happy. As the saying goes, every injustice has its own debtor. This guy's fart at the beginning caused misfortune to me and Brother Yaozi. Now he deserves this retribution.
After admiring it for a moment, I asked: "Tell me, I want to know how you were able to hold on to the fire for so long?"
The old man seemed to have accepted his fate, without any sense of resistance, and said mechanically: "During delivery in a meat coffin, there will be a layer of fetal membrane on the body of the baby, but it is a great treasure that can protect against water and fire. In the old days in southern Xinjiang,
Some people deliberately bury people in meat coffins just to get the fetal membranes, and then make them into clothes. Trafficking them to the Central Plains can bring huge sums of money, and princes will fight for them. I have lived for many years, and I have heard that later generations built the Ming Dynasty.
Emperor Wen got such a piece of clothing and set himself on fire in the palace. In fact, he was safe and sound, just to hide it from the truth. Then he escaped through a secret passage and went overseas by boat.
At that time, I was hiding in the coffin and wanted to kill you, but I didn't expect that you recognized my method and avoided it early. I wanted to learn from Emperor Jianwen's old deeds, but unexpectedly..."
"Unexpectedly, you didn't expect that I was more stubborn than you, and I also carried a pig's nose with me. I carried the lead poison and boiled you to death here. After burning for so long, even if you took away the fetal membranes from the female corpse, I'm afraid
You can't stand it anymore, can you? Look, the fetal membranes are torn, as if the skin on the face is exploding, tsk tsk, speaking of which, you are really bad. No wonder the female corpse jumped out early. How dare you be killed?
You can force it!"
I said with a smile: "Also, the old stories about Emperor Jianwen that you said are all nonsense. The cunning rabbit's three holes are just for comfort. After the nest was overthrown, you have blocked up all the holes you had."
The old man didn't refute. Perhaps he regained some of his energy after talking to me, and there was some vitality in his eyes. He changed the topic and gritted his teeth and said: "I knew it. From the first time I met you, I knew you would definitely
If you come here, you smell like a smell that only comes from people who have been underground all year round..."
I didn't respond, but Brother Yaozi didn't have such a good temper anymore. Compared to me, he was even more bitter and resentful, and he said solemnly: "There's no need to whine there, tell me, you come out on your own, or we invite you to come out."
?”
"I want to go out..."
The old man sighed: "But now except for one head, I have lost all consciousness."
I waved my hand at Wushuang: "Get him out of here, I have something to ask him!"
Wushuang raised the Mo Dao and stepped forward, slashing at the lump of lead.
The corner of the old man's eye twitched violently at that moment. It seemed that no matter how devastated he was, he was still a little scared when death was imminent.
The Mo Dao fell and cut on the hot lead block. It was as easy as cutting tofu with a knife. It was just right and fell right against the old man's body.
Afterwards, Wushuang swung his knife repeatedly, and finally opened up the hot lead that was pressing on the old man. The old man finally broke free from the foot of Wuzhi Mountain, but his body was even more miserable. Smoke curled up, showing a carbon color. It seemed that
He was completely burned out and couldn't get up on his own.
"The taste...is okay!"
Lao Bai shrugged his nose and looked at the old man with surprise on his face: "I'm just hungry. I said, old man, can you change yourself back to your original appearance? I can't bear to eat you like this..."
A flash of fear flashed in the old man's eyes, but he did not dare to refute. After holding back for a long time, he only squeezed out one sentence through his teeth: "I am not a frog..."
Lao Bai slapped himself on the forehead: "I have forgotten this. You are just a toad, you haven't eaten the head, so what use do I need from you!!"
After that, he pulled out his knife and was about to chop the other person, but the old man was so frightened that he quickly shrank his head.
I pulled Lao Bai and asked him to stop playing around. Seeing that the old man breathed a sigh of relief, he said again: "Lao Bai is right, useless things don't deserve to live in this world. To prove that you are still useful, please answer
I have a few questions, but you know what to ask."
The old man hesitated and asked tentatively: "Fan Huzi?"
"That's right!"
I asked: "This person Fan Huzi...is she still alive?"
The old man shook his head slightly.
I asked again: "Already dead?"
The old man still shook his head.
"Damn it, if you don't eat the toast, you'll be fined with alcohol!"
Lao Bai shouted: "I have eaten the Guanyin soil, but I really don't know what the taste of this thousand-year-old toad essence is. Little Weizi, get out of the way. I have to taste this thousand-year-old toad essence. Wushuang, come together and dismember this
I'll give you the strongest hind legs, which will definitely taste better than chicken legs!"
"I already said it!!"
The old man hurriedly raised his voice. Seeing that I was deep in thought, he hesitated and said hurriedly: "I have seen what you have done along the way, and it is different from the previous group of people. You are not here to ask for money, are you?"
The grave goods in this tomb are the richest. You don't even bother to take a look at it. It shows that you don't want this. So...you have something to do here? Everything is easy to talk about. As long as you open your mouth, I will answer it. It must be for you.
You do it, and you...just exit here. Of course, before exiting, if you like the things here, just take them. We will never bother you from now on. You go on your Yangguan Road, and we will cross our single-plank bridge.
, how about it? It’s better than continuing on and continuing to fight for your life!”
"Fight, what are you going to fight with us for?"
I sneered and said: "Fan Hu must have been bitten by the backlash by now, right? People who like to play with fire will be burned to death sooner or later, and people who like to seek death will definitely be killed by themselves in the end, don't you think so?"
The old man was originally looking at me with some hope, but at this moment, his expression suddenly changed!
In this way, I knew it in my heart, took a step back, and said calmly: "If you don't answer the question properly, you will bargain with me instead. In the end, you will still be useless."
The old man became angry all of a sudden, but after struggling a few times, he just pushed his chest upwards as if he was dying. He made no more violent movements, and shouted angrily: "I have answered everything that needs to be answered, and I have answered everything you asked."
Yeah, but I don’t know what to say!!”
"It seems that for thousands of years, you have helped Fan Huzi harm others!"
I shook my head, and the old man suddenly stopped resisting.
I had nothing to say to him anymore, so I stepped back again, and when I walked to Brother Yaozi, I whispered: "Aren't you always worried about being knocked down by a fart? Oh, by the way,
I also had some incontinence in the hospital and pulled out a long length of my finger. Ahem, I’ll leave it to you now.”
