The dead are the most common thing for Chen Pi Asi. Not to mention the mummy rice dumplings coming out of the tomb, even if he kills people, he can't even count them casually. When he turned over and saw that it was a corpse, he felt relieved. He wondered where the unlucky ghost could have died here. He had dried up like a squid and was still trying to scare people.

Even though he was thinking this way, Chen Pi Ah Si still had the iron bullet stuck in his hand. His skill in hitting the iron bullet with his bare hands was something he had practiced since he was a child. He was able to hit it 100 times, and he could throw the iron bullet extremely fast. , ordinary people may have been blinded without even seeing the movements of his hands.

Looking at the clothes of this Miao people, it seems that they have been dead for not more than ten years but also for two or three years. The clothes are basically in tatters. It is only because they are wrapped in a large number of ferns and creeping vines that the characteristics of the Miao people's clothing are preserved. But it was exposed to the sun and rain, so why didn't the body rot completely, but instead felt a little dehydrated?

The belly of the corpse was still rumbling, and the more Chen Pi Asi looked at it, the more he felt something was wrong. People like him have their own special way of doing things. If it were me, Brick would have run away at that time. But Chen Pi Asi believed in striking first to gain advantage since he was a child. As soon as he thought about it, he had already fired three iron marbles in his hand, all of which hit the corpse's belly. He said in his heart, I don't care who you are, I'll kill you first. .

The iron bullets were so powerful that they almost broke the body into two pieces. As soon as the lower body fell off, Chen Pi Ah Si saw a ball of unknown yellow mucus inside, wrapped in a large number of eggs. Many of the eggs had hatched out, and there were piles of them. White bugs were writhing inside, and there were some things he was very familiar with hanging around - hives. Then a large number of ground wasps crawled out from the holes in the body.

Chen Pi Asi cursed, thinking that it was bad luck. It turned out that a wasp had made a nest in the corpse. The wasps were extremely poisonous and ferocious, and now he was going to be in trouble.

Seeing a layer of black mist rising, the wasps began to swarm. Chen Pi Ah Si was so anxious that he took out the People's Liberation Army folding shovel he carried with him from his bag, shoveled a handful of wet mud from the ground, patted the broken wound of the corpse, sealed all the wasps that came out, and then turned around and left. run.

The wasps that had rushed out swarmed up to him, and he was slapping them with his clothes while running around mindlessly. Fortunately, he was very quick with his shovel, so he only paid a few bags. When he stopped panting and dusted off the remaining wasps on his body, he no longer knew where he had run.

Chen Pi Asi pulled out the stinger from his body, grinning from the pain. He was still wondering why wasps were making nests in human corpses. This kind of poisonous bees usually live underground, like ants. Deep in the rain forests of Guangxi, you can sometimes see hives like hills. Others thought it was an ant nest, and when they opened it to look for ants, they were wrapped into bee balls before they realized what was happening.

In places like Guangxi and Yunnan, the world doesn't know much about bugs. Chen Pi Asi can only blame himself for his bad luck. He looked around while treating the sting. After climbing over a hill, he suddenly froze.

I saw only a huge stone tower,

Falling at the base of the hill in front of him, the tower is probably hexagonal (unrecognizable), majestic, with dense eaves and wide beams. Use a knife to scrape away the moss and entangled plants on the top. The relief stone carvings on the tower are very exquisite, but it is obvious that the tower has been burned. There are black burn marks on all parts, which may have been a fire.

The tower body, tower top and tower brake have all cracked and fallen to the ground, and broken into n sections. Because the tower was so heavy, a large part of it was pressed into the soil of the rainforest, and countless trees were crushed under the tower.

Chen Pi Asi has rich experience and knows that pagodas generally consist of an underground palace, a pagoda base, a pagoda body, a pagoda top and a pagoda temple. The pagoda at the top should have a Sumeru base, a lotus, an alms bowl, a phase wheel and orbs. There are also some that add a treasure cover, a round light, a Yangyue and a orb on top of the phase wheel. In short, there should be a bead-shaped thing on the top of the pagoda. , quite valuable.

He followed the tower body to the edge of the Tasha. When the Tasha fell, it may have knocked down a huge "spruce" tree. As a result, the Tasha broke in mid-air, and the Tasha was inserted head down. Entering the ground, the Xumizuo shattered. Chen Pi Asi looked at the extent of the damage and determined that the orb must have become a "treasure cake" and was scrapped.

He returned to the base of the tower and exited. Half of the wall was still there. He climbed in and found a mess of stones. There must be an underground palace below. Unfortunately, not only was this place sealed during the construction of the pagoda, but it was also covered with a large amount of rubble and broken bricks scattered during the collapse. It might take half a year to dig into the underground palace with a folding shovel.

Chen Pi's Asi looked at the compass. It was evening when he came down, and the sky was already very dark. The moon had already risen. He didn't have a torch. He had walked so far and didn't know how to get back. It looked like he was still pretending to be lost. It seems that he is waiting for the Miao people to come to rescue him. Thinking about it, he first used broken branches and dead leaves to burn a large bonfire at the base of the tower to attract other people's attention. At the same time, he climbed to the highest point of the participating part of the tower base to see what was surrounding him. What kind of situation.

According to what he saw from "Wofo Ridge" and what he saw now, the area he was in at this time should be an area with very messy trees. The ground should be a little lower than the surrounding area. This is because when the underground palace was backfilled with "mixed soil", due to the special climate in Guangxi, the soil had too much water and was not solid. As the water seeped down, many bubbles were formed in the soil. After a lifetime of shaking, the mud layer collapsed like steamed buns.

In this way, Chen Pi Asi judged two things. One is that the underground palace is very big, but not deep. It will definitely be dug in less than 20 minutes. The second is that the soil should be relatively soft, so it won't take too much physical effort.

At this time, he was hesitating whether to enter this underground palace now or come back later. Now it seems that it is not too difficult to come back again. However, Chen Pi Asi, like all tomb robbers, knew that there was something underneath and could not resist his curiosity.

Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "What the hell, I have to decide what's going on here. If those temple barbarians come here later, I'll kill them all and throw them into the underground palace." No one will know.

Chen Pi Asi took apart the folding shovel. He didn't bring a Luoyang shovel, and he couldn't locate it. Besides, the pagoda is a rare thing. There was no coffin inside, and there was no one that could be determined. He followed his intuition and started digging a hole close to the base of the tower.

Soon he dug out the roof of the underground palace. It was not made of stone, but a wooden roof made of the entire trunk of bent wood cut into squares. He was so happy that he cut off a corner with a wire saw, and the withered wood fell into the underground palace. Soon there was a sound of falling, and he hurriedly shined a flashlight into it.

"Jing'er Palace" is symmetrical from top to bottom, that is to say, there should be as many floors of underground palaces below as there are towers above, so the underground palace is extremely deep. Looking from the top down, there are no floors between each floor, and the bottom is completely dark.

When I shined the flashlight, I saw something like a white mist. I really couldn't tell what it was.

Chen Pi Asi thought about what those Miao people said about the monsters under the tower, and couldn't help but feel a little worried. But this worry was fleeting, and now his head was burning with blood. At that moment, I felt that there was no problem with the air in the underground palace. I put my feet on the roof of the bentwood palace and fell headfirst into the underground palace with an upside-down golden hook. All my strength was put on my two feet.

After falling in, he adjusted his movements first and took a look at the other side of the curved wooden roof of the underground palace. This kind of underground palace is functional, and it does not hesitate to set up mechanisms like ancient tombs or add a lot of decorations. After Chen Pi'asi took a look around, he discovered that there were a large number of scriptures on the other side of the curved wooden palace roof, on the ceiling.

The scriptures are carved on curved wood, sealed with vermilion lacquer, and are in Sanskrit. Chen Pi Ah Si didn’t know a few Chinese characters, so of course he couldn’t understand what scripture it was about.

But he instinctively felt that this should be something to suppress demons or demons, and he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could there really be something sealed underneath?

Looking below, he could see more clearly. On each floor, there was a circle of protruding extensions. From top to bottom, each floor looked a bit like a staircase. On each floor, there was a circle of colorful carved arhats in monk robes. Like, the colors are radiant and very delicate. All the statues face downward, overlooking the bottom of the underground palace. The entire underground palace has a dozen floors, filled with hundreds of Arhat statues in various movements.

The nearest Arhat statue was not far away from him. Chen Pi Asi was hanging upside down. When he saw the expression of the Arhat statue, he suddenly felt a chill. It turned out that all the Arhat statues had the whites of their eyes rolled up, and their expressions had an indescribable seriousness. It's different from the ones you usually see.

After taking a closer look, I realized that the color of the eyes was too realistic, and when illuminated with a flashlight, the reflection was too strong, causing the illusion. But when his flashlight swept over them, those Arhats suddenly became extremely ferocious, as if their expressions had changed. They looked extremely terrifying. I really doubted whether this was what they had considered when designing them.

So Chen Pi Asi felt very uncomfortable when he looked at these Arhats, but he didn't understand what he was afraid of, so he couldn't help but have the idea of ​​retreating.

His flashlight continued to move underground, hoping to see something other than the Arhat statue. At this time, his hand suddenly froze, and the flashlight's light spot stopped in one position.

On the protrusion of the floor about six or seven floors away from him, he saw a strange Arhat statue. This Arhat statue was different from the others. His face was not looking down, but with his head raised, and his face was facing Chen Pi Ah Si stared straight into his eyes. When the flashlight shined on it, a ferocious white face was revealed in a flash. If it hadn't been motionless, one would have thought it was a ghost.

Chen Pi Asi was so frightened that his whole body went cold. He couldn't even move for a while until he felt that his feet began to become weak and he began to slide down.

Speaking of ghosts, Chen Pi Ah Si is really not afraid. He has killed so many people. It can be said that he has committed a heinous crime. How come he doesn't see a single person to take revenge? However, people of their time had more or less superstitious thoughts. Chen Pi Asi believed that he had been able to survive for so many years because of the blessings of his ancestors.

(People must have some faith. People in the outer world worship Guan Gong. Tomb robbers, the northern sect worships Zhong Kui. The southern sect generally does not do this, but there is a saying in Changsha that they worship Zhong Kui for a period of time. The "Yellow King".)

(What is the Yellow King? The Yellow King is Huang Chao, the one who "wears golden armor all over the city". Why do you worship this man? According to the elders, there are several reasons. First, this man can be said to be the murder champion. According to folklore : Huang Chao killed eight million people, and those who are counting are doomed. What do you mean? He has a target for killing. If he doesn’t kill eight million people, he will not complete the task. I don’t know if it is a notebook novel or with Chinese characteristics. According to folklore, Huang Chao is the reincarnation of Mu Jialian Arhat (not Yi Jianlian). This Lord released eight million hungry ghosts from hell to save his mother, so the Buddha let him reincarnate and kill them one by one. That is to say He went back to recruit migrant workers for Buddha.)

He wasn't afraid of the statue with its face up, but he felt something was wrong when the face happened to be facing him. Could it be that the builders at that time were sure that he would dig a robber tunnel from this location and placed such a thing here to scare him?
