1157. Tomb of the Tusi King (100) Ghost-headed Sword



Is there something in the water? ?

"With such a heavy rain, there might be some rotten wood and rocks washed down from the mountains."

An Xuefeng fixed all three wooden boats in front of the main room. The tourists crowded around him and entered the room, feeling a little nervous. Wang Pengpai calmed down the atmosphere and said a few words pretending to be relaxed.

But it's a pity that the only thing that can row a boat is definitely not wood or stone. An Xuefeng put the thing in his hand next to the fire. Everyone came up to take a look and couldn't help but gasped. It was a big fish with long arms. It was black and strong, with fine scales all over its body, and a swollen head and a thin tail. , the fish head was slashed deeply with a knife at an angle, almost cutting off the entire fish head. At first glance, it must have been An Xuefeng's hand.

The strange thing is that the pectoral and caudal fins of this fish are extremely short, and the dorsal fin is only a little bit. At first glance, it does not look like a fish, but looks like a black club. Now the fish's head is tilted to one side, and it can be seen that there is a tumor-like thing on its head, which is partially ulcerated and flowing with black water, but it is not smelly or fishy, ​​but it exudes a cold aroma.

But now the passengers are considered veterans. As soon as they smell the fragrance, they feel something is wrong. They subconsciously hold their breath and take a few steps back. If it weren't for the security team still standing firmly here, I'm afraid the passengers would have retreated far away. However, someone took a few steps forward instead of retreating, bending down to look at the black fish with great interest. It was Yi Ling. He circled the black fish twice and made no sound when walking. It reminded Wang Pengpai and the others of the time they just broadcast live. The big white cat I saw.

No wonder Captain An wants to bring back a fish.

Wang Pengpeng dug out the medical bag and thought about it while treating the wound. This fish looked abnormal, which made people feel a sense of resistance in their hearts. They were unwilling to touch it. Team An actually carried it all the way back to the B\u0026B. This ghost thing needs to be carefully verified to be real, but Captain An probably also thought that Director Ling would be interested in it, so he brought it all the way back.

Otherwise, why not carry those bugs and snakes?

"There's so much in the water, not just fish."

When Director Ling looked at the black fish, the passengers whispered and asked about the people who went out with him. Wang Yushu smiled bitterly. His face was pale. He looked like he was frozen by the rain in the dark outside, but when he returned to the main room, he was hit by the fire. , there was still no color on his face, and his eyes were a little dazed, obviously frightened. Even after drinking half a tank of hot water, he still hadn't recovered, and his voice sounded a little weak.

"First came a swarm of bugs, then a bunch of fish, and then a bunch of snakes swam behind the boat."

Before the water rose, they also went around the back. Although the ground was very muddy, there was nothing strange at all. Who knew that once the water flooded the land, all kinds of ghosts would come out.

"Insects are in groups, white thorns are still glowing with fluorescence, and they are gathered together like dirty foam, floating and swirling on the water. It's fine if they don't touch, but if they touch, they will explode the nest, and the water will crackle like cockroaches. Crash on the boat.”

Wan Xiangchun also rarely opened his mouth and said a long series of words: "Use a stick to shoot down a large area from the boat. It's like bran skin. The bugs are soft and have no hard shell on the outside. If you sweep them hard, they will rot into a puddle of water, but this It attracted the fish.”

They couldn't smell the smell of dead bugs in the heavy rain, but the effect of making nests was amazing. As soon as a piece of them was swept into the water, the water started to boil as if it was boiling. The jet was too dark to see clearly, but An Xuefeng's sharp eyes were able to tell that they were groups of big black fish. The dorsal fins exposed out of the water were also black, and they couldn't be seen without light.

I don’t know where so many fish came from when the water rose in the mountains. I think they ran out of the surrounding rivers after the water rose. These fish were also very big and very energetic. When they were fighting to eat insects, they occasionally bumped into the wood. The collision made the boat bang, as if it was pushed by a small wave. It's not enough to eat the bugs that fell on the water, so they have to rush to the boat.

Not only do they look like cannonballs, but they are also very destructive. The wooden boat shook violently when they hit it, and you can almost hear the rattling sound of the wood being overwhelmed.

"My grandma was really flustered at that time. Lao Wang, I have never been out of trouble in my life. I have been down-to-earth since I was a child, but at that time I thought I was going to die in the water."

Wang Pengpai was obviously better at speaking than Wang Yushu, and he spoke vividly, with a hint of fear in his tone: "These fish are very ferocious, they eat bugs so well, and their teeth are so sharp that a strip of flesh fell off the back of my hand after being rubbed off." , my fat body is not enough for a fish to take a few bites if it falls into the water."

He exposed the back of his hand. His fat hand, which was red from the cold, was covered with mud and water. There was an ugly scar on the back of his hand, like an earthworm. The wound was so deep that you could almost see the bones, and the flesh and blood turned white by soaking. . He had just wiped it with alcohol, and he should have grinned in pain, but the back of his hand was numb and he couldn't feel the pain at all, which was actually worse. When they saw Miao Fangfei, they all frowned and looked worried.

There were too many fish and they were vigorous, not unlike a swarm of insects. Even if An Xuefeng killed very fast, he couldn't kill them all. He almost couldn't pull out the knife when he pierced it. Their three wooden boats were originally tied together, but they were hit by a school of fish and almost fell apart.

"It was really dangerous at that time."

Wang Yushu was also frightened: "Then the school of fish surrounding the boat suddenly retreated in disorder, and another group of big anacondas came, which should have scared the fish away."

"No, those anacondas came later."

Wang Pengpai laughed and patted his belly: "Old Wang, I scared them away. It was too dark at that time and you didn't see it."

The situation was really dangerous at that time. The three wooden boats were swaying and were about to capsize at any time. An Xuefeng killed a lot of fish. Wang Yushu and the others also kept hitting the fish with wooden sticks to scare them, but the fish became even crazier when they saw blood. , and was not afraid at all. He ran towards their boat with all his strength, and bumping into people hurt as much as being hit by a stone. There was nothing that could be done at that time. An Xuefeng was ready to turn into a white tiger and fight, but Wang Pengpai brought a turnaround.

The fish was covered in fine scales and was very slippery. It jumped on the boat and jumped lively. When Wang Pengpai slapped the water with a wooden stick, he accidentally stepped on the fish, and it fell straight down and almost fell into the water. It was An Xuefeng who had quick eyes and quick hands. He grabbed the clothes on his back and pulled him up. Even so, Wang Pengpai almost fell into the water with his face. He was almost face to face with the group of crazy fish, and the fish tails slapped him in the face.

But he also smelled the strange cold fragrance, which reminded him of something recorded in his family's old book.

"Ghost-headed sword, this fish looks like a ghost-headed sword."

Wang Pengpai said with some fear: "It's a very evil thing."

The book passed down from his family should normally have been passed down by word of mouth. Each item in the book was only recorded in a few strokes. The half-written handwriting was unclear, and there were only a few records about the Ghost Head Sword.

"It is said that deep in the Shiwan Mountains of Hunan, Hubei, Guizhou and Chongqing, in the tombs of the old princes, nobles, priests and wizards, there are big pythons buried with people in some coffins."

The higher the status, the bigger the pythons buried with them, and their names are also different. From small snakes and pythons to dragons and dragons, the big pythons are carefully prepared and fed, which is more like a kind of witchcraft. Even in the environment where there is lack of oxygen, food and water. It can survive for more than ten years or even tens or even hundreds of years in the coffin. The great witch used special means to make the python and the human corpse grow together. If the python is alive, the person buried in the tomb is also considered "alive". In the case of dragon python, Provide support to the deceased until the time and place are favorable, and the deceased will be resurrected many years later.

"These dragon pythons were cooked and raised by the great witch. It is said that they are ghost-headed knives. Ghost-headed knives eat fragrant meat and have a kind of cold fragrance. They are the dragon python's favorite food."

Wang Pengpai's parents went to a large tomb in western Hunan when they were fighting. The journey was difficult and dangerous, and they couldn't reach the tomb in the end. Instead, they found the ghost-headed knife that was still alive in the underground river in the middle of the tomb. They almost died, but luckily they had it with them. The things saved my life and were not broken in the tomb.

"The ghost head sword is afraid of cinnabar. At that time, I used the dead horse as a living horse doctor and sprinkled the cinnabar powder. Unexpectedly, the fish retreated immediately."

Wang Pengpai groaned and said distressedly: "I didn't expect it to be a ghost-headed sword. This thing eats evil people."

According to legend, people who are eaten by fish will have their souls eaten by the fish and die a bad death. The great witches deep in the mountains use insects and special herbs to cook slaves. After the slaves turn into fragrant meat, they are fed to the ghost-headed knives. When the cold fragrance appears on their bodies, they have eaten their souls. If you then feed the dragon python with this kind of ghost-headed knife, the dragon python will grow into an extraordinary size. When it has eaten its soul, it will shed its skin for the last time and then fall into a deep sleep.

Dragon pythons that fall into deep sleep and do not resist tormenting can be used for burial.

"Those in the water can only be regarded as small pythons, not as big as the dragon python. Perhaps the descendants of the dragon python in the past were attracted by the meaty smell of the ghost head knife."

Wang Pengpai frowned: "Those white bugs, I think they might be the bugs in the stone figurines."

As we get closer to Wuluo Mountain and the Tomb of the Tusi King, we can already see many stone figurines obscured by weeds and shrubs in the wild. Yi Ling had seen a few on the first two mountains. Some of the stone figurines were smashed, with only a thin layer of stone shells on the outside, and dense gray-white insect shells inside, with a few dead bones here and there.

In the old days, slaves may have been stuffed with insect eggs and herbal medicines, and they could be sealed alive into stone figurines to breed fragrant meat. After so many years, those cruel and ignorant sacrifices in the past have been crushed by the wheels of history, but there are still people deep in the mountains. Moss-covered stone figurines. The seemingly dead eggs of the scale insects were submerged and soaked in polluted water, and they quickly hatched into new 'flavored meat'.

The passengers felt heavy and even more anxious when they thought of going into the mountains tomorrow. The breath of living people attracts swarms of insects, the swarms of insects attract swarms of ghost-headed swordfish, and the swarms of fish attract anacondas. Tomorrow, it will be a tough battle to enter the mountains by water. The key is that none of them have any experience in 'combat' on water, and none of them were born near the sea and are good at water. The feeling of fighting and fighting on a boat is different from that of stepping on the ground. There is a feeling of uncertainty and uncertainty on the boat.

Although only An Xuefeng, Wang Pengpai, Wang Yushu and Wan Xiangchun went out tonight, their overall combat effectiveness was probably stronger than if they all went out tomorrow, especially since Mao Xiaole, Bai Feibai and Wei Xun are all children now, and they are a little more powerful. Just thinking about it makes me so worried that I can't sleep.

But in order to maintain energy, An Xuefeng undoubtedly asked everyone to rest for two hours before discussing anything else.

Who can think about sleeping in this situation? It's just resting for a while with your eyes closed. The sound of the heavy rain outside became hazy at some point, as if separated by a layer of water. Miao Fangfei suddenly felt heart palpitations in her sleep. She woke up in a daze and saw Leader Ling and the vigilant security team still sitting around the fire. Her heart was beating so fast. Gradually calmed down. She was about to close her eyes and go back to sleep when she saw Leader Ling and Captain An leaning together, with the ghost-headed sword in front of them. Director Ling was holding a burning branch in his hand. There was a red rope tied to the end of the branch, which was slightly swayed by the wind——

No, not a red rope, that's a worm, a red maggot. Miao Fangfei's mind was not yet fully awake, but her eyes were already wide open as she was about to close them. She watched helplessly as Director Ling took the branch and put the red maggots into the fish's mouth of the Ghost Tou Dao!
