the last priest

Zhuo Xiong and Chao Zi respectively used climbing ropes to tie up the people on their backs, and tied them up with marching belts in the army, so that even if any situation happened, the unconscious people would not be lost, and they truly shared life and death. ╠★ ╣Zha Wenbin thought, if Pharaoh's consciousness is clear now, he would agree with him to do so.

Cha Wenbin is still in the lead, and the two brothers are like right-hand men at the moment, standing on both sides of him. Since there is no way out, they can only go against the trend, and they can't wait here to die.

Walking through the bend just now, the scene in front of him made Cha Wenbin take a step back, Zhuo Xiong next to him couldn't help turning around and retching, and Chaozi also covered his mouth to keep himself from getting sick.

what did they seeSeeing that the bronze coffin that was left just now had its lid opened, the puddle that was originally covered with gravel was now completely white. What was even more shocking was that the "white" was moving, to be precise, wriggling.Countless white bugs came here from all directions. They rolled and entangled together. Their bodies were stacked on top of each other. They were so densely packed that they couldn't be seen or counted. The coffins are getting closer, and they form a huge pyramid shape. The insects next to them are still climbing up the "tower", and some insects continue to fall from the "spire", and they are instantly buried in the sea of ​​insects below, and there are new ones. Constantly rushing upwards, the "worm tower" was close to the top of the cliff a moment ago.

A bug that crawled up to them was picked up by Cha Wenbin with his sword. When he took a look, the bug was as long as chopsticks, but as thick as a rolling pin, with a plump white body on the ground. Twisting it back and forth, turning it over carefully, you can see that there are countless thin feet on the abdomen, wriggling non-stop, which makes people feel hairy.

What is even more frightening is that there is a pair of black pliers on its mouth, about five centimeters long. Cha Wenbin tried to pick up a branch on the ground to tease it. It snapped in two, and when I lifted it up, the cut was as smooth as if cut by a knife, enough to show the sharpness of its pair of pliers.

Zhuo Xiong pointed at the writhing bugs on the ground, his heart was always hairy, and he couldn't bear it until now: "Brother Wenbin, what is this thing? Why is it so disgusting? I grew up in Sichuan since I was a child, but I never I've never seen a bug like this before."

Cha Wenbin turned around and asked He Yichao: "Chaozi, you have been active in the wild all year round. What do you think this bug looks like?"

Chaozi covered his mouth and was retching. When he heard Cha Wenbin ask him, he put down his hand: "I saw this thing once in Tibet."

Cha Wenbin frowned and asked, "Have you seen it in Tibet? Tell me about it."

Chaozi pointed to the worm and said, "That was when I was a soldier. Once a herdsman in the Tibetan area lost his cattle and ran to the company to ask for help. Because Tibet has a small population density and there are many no-man's lands, what about the herdsmen? Livestock are often lost. When they can't find them, they will come to the company for help. We are the most particular about the military and civilian family, especially for these fellow villagers in Tibetan areas. The company attaches great importance to this matter, because The herds of cattle mean all the wealth to the herdsmen. Without further ado, the instructor asked me and the deputy squad leader to ride a horse each and lead the fellow to look for it.

Before setting off, everyone brought enough godmothers and water, because similar things happened in the past, and it often took many days to find them. Not only are the natural conditions in Tibetan areas harsh, but there are also many ferocious beasts. The three of us followed the cattle herd Footprints and feces walked to the foot of a snow mountain, looking at the footprints of the cows, it was up the mountain.

Cows rarely go up the mountain, unless they are chased by wolves and panicked, so the squad leader and I decided to go up the mountain to look for it, but the Tibetan fellow refused and insisted on going back.The two of us were in a hurry at the time. You said that we were all here, and there were clues, why didn't we go up and have a look?We didn't understand the fellow who squeaked for a long time, so we decided to go up and have a look, because the People's Liberation Army can't give up halfway when it helps you.Seeing that we insisted on going up, the fellow grabbed the rein of the horse and refused to let go. Finally, even beckoned and gestured, he finally understood the reason why he didn't let us go.

In the eyes of Tibetans, there are many mountains and lakes with gods, and this mountain is not only a sacred mountain in his eyes, but also a taboo place for him, because the top of the mountain is also the place of sky burial! "

Cha Wenbin interjected: "Sky burial?"

"Well, sky burial, you ask Zhuo Xiong about this, he also stayed in Tibet." Cha Wenbin turned to look at Zhuo Xiong, and he nodded towards Wen Bin: "I also heard that there is indeed a sky burial there."

"Oh? What kind of burial is that?"

Chaozi went on to say: "As for what the celestial burial is like, I have never seen it before. I just heard that the celestial burial master chooses a place, usually on the top of the mountain, and puts the corpse on his back to the sky. Shoulder forcefully tore off the skin to expose the muscles, and then backed away. Flocks of goshawks would come down and peck at each other. When the flesh was eaten away and only skeletons were left on the celestial burial platform, the celestial burial master would use stones When the skeletons are smashed into bones and kneaded into a ball, the vultures will once again overwhelm the sky, until they are all eaten, and then they will disperse, and then the people around will start to kneel and pay respects."

After listening, Zha Wenbin said: "We Han people actually have the kind of sky burial you mentioned. There is such a record about funerals in "Book of Changes? , No seal, no tree", what is being said here is that after death, people are encoffined, and they are directly discarded in the wilderness.

Chaozi added: "We were both young and courageous at the time. We had been in Tibet for so long and wanted to do something practical, so we made gestures to the fellow and told him that the cows were lost, and they were here On this mountain, if you don’t look for it, what will happen to your family’s life in the future? The mountain will be blocked by heavy snow soon, and if you don’t go up, the cattle will probably freeze to death. Who will bear the loss?”

The fellow in the Tibetan area really had no choice. All his property was left there, and he didn't dare to go up. After being teased by us for a while, he finally gave up and agreed to go up with us to have a look.Needless to say, the excitement of the monitor and I.The road up the mountain was not easy, so we had to lead the horse on foot. It took us half a day to finally reach the top of the mountain. It was already getting dark. Following the footprints of the cows, we saw a cow on the back of the mountain. The fellow said that this is a leading bull, and the herd must be not far away, we have to find it before dark, otherwise it will be separated again in a while.

Before we had walked a few steps, we followed the footprints of the cow’s hooves to the back of the mountain. The corpses of the cows were spread all over the area of ​​[-] square meters. The fellow saw that all his cows had died here. Immediately rushed over, the squad leader and I saw that there were actually enemies of our socialism here, holding the [-]-[-] bar, pulling the bolt of the gun, and then followed them. When we got closer, we couldn't see the bulls on the cows. When the scars came, there were a few cows that fell on the ground in the distance and were still panting there. All the cows had a common phenomenon: something was twitching on the belly of the cow. When the fellow saw this scene, he subconsciously backed away. No matter what you say, you are willing to take revenge again, and you are going to go down the mountain by pulling us.The squad leader and I don't understand, it's such a big cow that died, why don't you just take revenge, and why are you so busy going down the mountain?The fellow told us that there is a devil here, and all these cows were dedicated to the devil.

The squad leader and I were both materialists at the time. Although we respected the beliefs of Tibetans, we still didn’t believe in the existence of devils in our bones. Looking at the panting cows in the distance, they had stopped at this moment, thinking about the loss of the villagers this time. But it was serious, and I was not convinced, so I wanted to figure it out.The squad leader squatted down against a dead cow, pointed to the wriggling belly and said to me: Chaozi, look, this cow is dead, why is the belly still moving?I said, then you can open it and have a look.

This kid was even more stupefied than me. He pulled out the bayonet, and with a swipe, it was cut open, and a pile of white worms rushed out of it, one of which bit the squad leader's bayonet, which was made of pure steel. Later, when we checked, there was a tooth mark on the knife edge!

One of them crawled onto the squad leader's calf, and he yelled "ah" in pain. I quickly picked it up with a bayonet, but I couldn't get it off. In the end, he was cruel and grabbed the insect and pulled it hard. Guess what? .Even a large piece of flesh was torn off.

Ever since the fellow saw the worm, he shouted the devil in his mouth, led the bull, turned his head and ran away, and ignored the two of us. He had just bandaged the squad leader, and he saw that most of the dead cows just now were dead. The skeleton was broken, and piles of white bugs came to us. I took advantage of the situation and swept a shuttle of bullets, hitting those bugs, and the juice sprayed out covered my whole body. I watched more and more bugs In desperation, I could only run down the mountain with the squad leader on my back. When I met the fellow at the foot of the mountain, he applied some herbal medicine to the wound on the squad leader's leg. Before returning to the company, the squad leader started to have a fever, coma and Vomit.The company instructor sent him to the Lhasa Military Region Hospital overnight. In the end, the doctor said that his life was saved thanks to the little herbs, but the squad leader was amputated. He lost a leg forever. I remember the appearance of the bug, just like it! ", Chaozi pointed to the one in front of Cha Wenbin, "It's exactly the same as it! "
