Chapter 25 Hundred-handed human bones
"Is this thing scary?"
Uncle Liao sighed and said, "Chuzi, you have seen Uncle Liao for many tricks. You may think I am very powerful, but all things in the world are higher than the other. You have Maoshan Dao. It has a thousand-year-old monster. Although the old fire bat is not a thousand-year-old monster, it always has a lifespan of hundreds of years. If a bat can live for hundreds of years, it will be a very terrible monster. I originally thought that the cave was a black ram, but I didn't expect it to be such a thing."
I subconsciously touched my neck, covered with saliva, and couldn't help but say, "It's so disgusting."
"If you look back, it will suck the courage of your throat from your mouth. With my ability, it may not be able to snatch the courage from its hands, so you will die of suffocation."
Unexpectedly, I actually walked on the line of life and death just now, and a layer of white-haired sweat immediately appeared behind me. Uncle Liao stretched out his head and looked left and right and said, "This old fire bat is the king of the cave, and it must be the monster sent by the Russians to harm Wangbei Village, because the fire bat is the thick-haired bat that grew in the extremely cold area of the Far East."
"So the treasure must be in the cave?"
"It must be so. It's just that there is such a monster, and the treasure is not easy to obtain."
"Is there really no way to deal with it?"
"There is a solution, but it's not very sure." Uncle Liao thought carefully and said, "Let's continue walking in. The old fire bat's nest may be where the treasure is."
We didn't dare to use the torch anymore, lit up two glow sticks, and walked towards the depths of the cave with the subtle green light.
The terrain in the cave changed from low to high, while the animal bones disappeared. It seemed that no animal could climb this slope. Uncle Liao told me in an extremely subtle voice: "Any terrain with a raised land is regarded as a grave site in Feng Shui. It can attract evil things the most, be careful."
However, this time, a gloomy face appeared in the green fluorescence. He was facing us motionlessly. The color of his pupils had changed to be similar to the whites of his eyes. He could only vaguely see a little trace. He opened his mouth slightly, maintaining a look of surprise.
From the appearance of this person, this person is a typical Caucasian race, tall, tall nose and deep eyes.
What's scary is that this man was not dead, because his belly was rising and falling, and there was also a sound of gasping, as if he was a walking corpse. Uncle Liao whispered: "This man's soul was sucked by the old fire bats. Needless to say, it must be those Russians who were hunting for treasures."
Then on the hillside we saw four or five Russians holding weapons. Like the one before, they all lost their souls and were still there in one breath. These people were all armed with weapons, and even had RPG rocket launchers. Compared with the tomb robbers outside the cave, these people were almost a group of tactical teams that performed special missions.
However, such a group of heavy soldiers were all caught in the old fire bats, which shows the terrifying ability of the old monster.
I was so nervous that I could even hear my heartbeat. At this moment, the bright green light shone on something similar to the unfolding of the broken canvas. I saw a thin layer of dark brown canvas spread horizontally in front of us. The surface of the canvas was covered with holes of different sizes, which seemed like a military tent that had been bombarded.
However, I soon felt something was wrong, because there seemed to be tendons on the surface of the canvas.
I put it on and looked carefully. Sure enough, the meridian blood vessels were dark black under the fluorescent light, and they were clearly visible and revealed in the slightest.
This must be the wings of the old fire bat. Its flesh wings as thin as a cicada's wings are like a broken rag. This shows how many years it has lived.
This monster is less than half a meter in front of us. What's so bad is that at such a critical moment, the glow sticks in my hands darkened at the same time until they fell into darkness.
I suddenly felt so dark that I couldn't see my fingers. I was panicked, but I didn't know what to do. Uncle Liao grabbed my hand, and then a smell of earth came to my nose. Uncle Liao blocked a handful of soil on my nose.
The mud was very loose and did not affect breathing. Of course, I understood the purpose of Uncle Liao doing this. I quickly reached out to hold it. Then I heard a slight crisp sound. After the glass inside the fluorescent rod was broken, the liquid and air contacted the air, which caused a chemical change. The green light lit up again.
Suddenly, a huge fire bat face was facing Uncle Liao.
The face of the fire bat looks a bit like a combination of a bear and a fox, but because it has lived in the dull ground for a long time, its eyes have completely degenerated into a pair of white beads. The pointed nose is only one inch away from the mud covered in Uncle Liao’s mouth, which is just like a encounter.
The fire bat is not taller than the human, but the fluff on the face is at least twice as big as a human. The wings spread like a broken canvas are probably five or six meters long. At this stall where people's nerves are broken, Liu Qingshan shouted: "Mr. Liao, where are you? We have already cut the hole."
His voice sounded, and a pair of hunter-like triangular ears on the old fire bat's head immediately turned to the direction where the sound came, and then the strange and terrifying face slowly moved with the movement of the ears.
Liu Qingshan shouted again, "Where are you two, are you still alive?"
With a "huh", the strong wind blew past my face, making me unable to open my eyes. The old fire bat flapped his wings and rolled up a stream of plush dust and flew towards the entrance of the cave.
Uncle Liao immediately dragged me into the cave and said as he ran: "We can't save him, Liu Qingshan is dead."
As expected, shortly after Uncle Liao said this, he heard a burst of angry shouts from behind him, and then the dull gunshot sounded like a ball of beans, mixed with the roars and screams of several tomb robbers.
Not only them, but also Wu Biao and the other four were also not spared. I had a good impression of Wu Biao. I couldn't help feeling sad when I thought of his miserable state of being sucked away.
Soon the cave returned to calm and there was no sound at all. A very large wooden shelf was erected where we had just passed. The wooden shelf was a bit similar to a cross. The old fire bat just hung his wings on the horizontal wooden strips. I guess this might be a way to reduce its weight. Because its wings are too big, this wooden shelf is also its nest. We will be safe for the time being as long as we have gone in the past.
As expected, the terrain began to gradually go downwards, and a sound of flowing water came from the dark cave. As long as there was a source of water, we could walk out of the cave in the direction of the water flow. However, the worst thing was that before we could find the source of water, the glow stick lost its effectiveness again.
This time, Uncle Liao sighed and whispered to me: "I have no stick on my hand, where are you?"
“No, either.”
Although they are equipped with flashlights and military lighters, these light sources will generate heat. The old fire bats are very sensitive to heat energy, so we dare not illuminate them. We touch them in the direction of the water flowing.
I don’t know how long I have been away, but we just can’t touch any moisture. Just as I was restless and felt thirsty, some light came out of the darkness, and my spirits were cheered up and helped each other to walk towards the light source.
Soon we found the light source, which was actually a cane inserted into the land. The cane was about half a meter long, carved in the shape of an old tree root, and was lifelike. At the top of the pole was inlaid with a night pearl the size of a goose egg, which shone in this dark place, illuminating a place.
I pulled my cane out from the ground. Although it was only the size of a thumb, it was extremely heavy. It should be made of pure gold. I barely raised it as a flashlight and continued to look for water.
However, further forward is a valley, with only one person passing through the crevice at the corner, and moss was covered with both sides of the crevice. I held a cane and passed by first. Behind the crevice was a naturally formed stone rock mountain road. At the end of the trail that was more than ten meters long, countless lights flashed, making people feel the illusion of entering the starry sky.
I suppressed my inner excitement and walked through the stone path. I saw a huge gray stone cave filled with various rare treasures and antiques. All the glowing gems were outrageously large. On both sides of the stone path were six golden men with corpse-suppressing talismans carved on the heads.
Uncle Liao said: "Songzi, there is a colorful skylight mirror here, which will open your eyes today." After that, he lit the light and saw a brass candlestick with a white candle inserted into the faint fire.
Uncle Liao lit the candle, and suddenly a round golden light shot out at an oblique angle. It turned out that there was a square bronze mirror behind the candle, and the reflection happened to be another purple mirror reflecting the light out again.
The light spreads extremely fast. In an instant, the huge cave was lit up by the light reflected from a small candle. In addition to the rare treasures in the colorful light, a huge human skeleton was placed on an artificially constructed bluestone platform deep in the cave.
The skeleton is completely preserved, and the deceased sits cross-legged on the ground. However, what is strange is that there are a circle of bone-shaped arms behind it, like a "peacock with open-screen" and each bone-shaped hand holds a white human bone skeleton. Some skulls have not yet completely rotted, with pus, blood and rotten flesh.
