death row

Chapter 18 The Four Ghosts Carrying the Coffin
My curiosity was hooked by him and I couldn't restrain it: "Hurry up and tell me, don't play tricks there."

"It's a pity that those neo-Nazis don't know either. They are just a group of rabble and their knowledge is extremely limited. I just thought of this question, because the situation of Yuriko proves the existence of the Orc Corps, which means that there is still a place on the earth. The level of technology is comparable to the alien ruins of the secret castle in Antarctica, otherwise, who will these people fight with?"

"Is this reliable? Will they fight in this way with such transcendent science and technology?"

"You are a soldier, don't you understand the current mode of war? If one day Russia and the United States start a war, will they throw nuclear weapons on each other's land as soon as they meet? It's not a conventional battle. Nuclear weapons are just used to scare people, no Who will use that thing at the last step."

I couldn't help laughing when I heard Xiao Liu's words: "Brother, you are really knowledgeable among tomb robbers, you are not an ordinary person, could it be that God sent you to guide me?"

"Thank you for your compliment. I graduated from the Department of Archeology with a master's degree. In addition to my undergraduate degree, I have also passed the English, Spanish, German, and Japanese foreign language exams by myself, so I can understand what these neo-Nazis are saying behind their backs. They think I don't understand In German, many confidential situations are not disclosed behind my back, otherwise I would not know."

"Talent, definitely a talent in this industry, thank you for explaining the secret of Yuriko clearly and unmistakably, can you tell me how you broke through the blockade of spiders and came to this cave?"

"I entered here through a secret tunnel. In fact, the entrance is where I just hid."

"Then should we go back the same way? The snow field is absolutely not safe for us."

"The snow field is indeed not safe, but the secret passage is useless, because both sides are dead ends. One side is the place where the Desi tribe sacrifices totems, and the other side is the secret place of Yuriko herself. That place is just as troublesome."

"What do you mean? What did you see again?"

"I'm a tomb robber, so I pay attention to Feng Shui. When I entered Yuriko, I noticed a very scary phenomenon, but this is also the most easily overlooked situation. Didn't you notice that the large pine forest here is all dead? species?"

"What? Isn't that the black pine forest? How did it become a dead tree species?" I said in great surprise.

The expression on Xiaoliuzi's face was as if the second monk was puzzled and said, "Black pine forest? Is this what someone said or did you take it for granted?"

"This..." I thought about the word "black pine forest" for the first time. I probably saw it in the action report. When introducing the landform of Yuriko, the relevant information used "a large black pine forest grows in the area". What is it? Didn't they know, or did they deliberately confuse the public?
Thinking of this, I said: "Based on what you said, let's continue to introduce the situation."

"According to the observation of Tianxing Fengshui, the entire Baihezi area is east-west, and the sun rises from the east and sets from the west. It stands to reason that we should be able to see the sun breaking through the darkness at the first time in our Desi territory, but I noticed that during the day The darkest time is exactly when the sun rises in the east, which is completely unnatural.”

"It's not surprising, the shade is too strong and blocks the sun."

"Wrong, the shade of the trees can only cover part of the light, but it can't block all the sunlight, so I walked eastward and found the reason at the end. At the end of the Desi territory is a mountain. Although the mountain is not high, it is rolling. In the morning When the sun rises and the moon sets, it will be blocked by this mountain, so the forest will appear very dark."

"The special situation created by the special terrain, what can this explain?"

"This can explain a very important point. When the yang is broken in other places, the yin is the heaviest in this place. Because of the long-term stagnation of the yin, this will evolve into a regional environment that grave robbers are most afraid of. ..."

Before he finished speaking, I subconsciously blurted out: "You mean that there is a yin evil here?"

Little Six's expression suddenly became extremely different: "How do you know Yin Sha? This is the most professional term for tomb robbers, and it has never been introduced in tomb robber novels."

"I was a grave robber before I joined the army, but I'm not as professional as you and your master."

"So that's the case. I didn't expect to meet my colleagues here. What a coincidence."

I didn't bother to listen to his nonsense, and said, "Yin Sha Land is a veritable place of great evil. What kind of vision did you see?"

"In addition to the dead pine trees in the forest, there is also a corpse breeding ground. It is in the cave I just came here. In the cave, there are four old white-haired zombies who have died long ago, and a blood-red coffin. According to the four corpses From the posture of carrying the coffin, it can be seen that they will walk out of the entrance of the grave at a specific time, and circle around according to the established route."

"This, this..." I didn't know what to say again.

"If you look at the position of the grave from the positioning compass, it should be at the position of the Eight Gates. This position is dedicated to destroying the local magnetic field. Therefore, when the four ghosts act, the local magnetic poles must be disordered. All tools that rely on magnetic positioning will fail. Instead, rely on primitive instincts to feel Animals at the magnetic poles, including the Desi people who will not get lost in the forest, will have a sense of direction confusion at that moment, and they will not be able to tell the north, south, east, west, so neither the beasts in the forest nor the Desi warriors will go out."

"And there are huge stones, dead wood, and traps in the tomb, which are all arranged according to the profound meaning of Zhuge Wuhou's Eight Arrays. If you don't know where the gate of life is, you will die without a place to die. The four ghosts carrying the coffin are a feng shui bureau set up by an expert. It has only one function, to prevent the Desi people guarding the forest from going out, and these four white-haired old zombies will walk out of the forest along the established route, but if you don't know the art of Qimen Dunjia, you will break I never imagined that such a terrifying four ghosts carrying the coffin could actually serve as a guide."

I was almost like a fool in front of Xiaoliuzi, so I admired him to the point of being completely overwhelmed, but I still asked: "Are you sure?"

He was also very straightforward, and said directly: "I'm not sure, so I don't dare to take risks by myself. It's not fun to be swallowed by these white-haired old zombies, but you don't have to be afraid if you have a gun in your hand, but I think my own The inference is absolutely reasonable, because the eight-array map has its fixed characteristics. Although I don't know how to lay it out, and I can't see through the gate of life and death, I can roughly see the layout according to the positioning compass. For hundreds of years, their fixed course of action must pass through the gate of life."

Xiaoliuzi's deduction is very reasonable, because the action report clearly records that "four men in white clothes are carrying a bright red coffin" at the entrance of the Baihezi Black Pine Forest.

We defined all potential dangers on them, but we didn't expect that these four monsters are the only guarantee for us to get out of the black pine forest alive.

When I took out the compass and found that the thing had returned to normal, it seemed that we had missed one bus. The question was when the next bus would leave.
