Chapter 1
"Quick! No time..."

One night 25 years ago, Daxinganling, Fotou Village.

The mountain fire was like a roaring beast, sweeping towards it with a force of thunder, and a sea of ​​flames was ten meters away from the sealed mound. A few Tu Fuzi stood on it like ants on a hot pot.

Looking at the growing flames, Tian Modou was burning with impatience. The bursts of smoke choked him to tears, and he didn't bother to wipe them off. His eyes were fixed on the half-meter-square robbery hole on the ground.

Gou Tou Geng was squatting on the side, and was using a dustpan to steal the soil from the hole. The purple five-flowered soil around the ground formed a small hill, which was particularly eye-catching and bloody red.

Gou Tou Geng Le was a bit lost in this situation, muttering: "Cousin! Don't worry, I'll buy you a color TV when I finish this deal. This fucking is a death sentence And then give birth, seven eat and chuckle and take this fat bucket with pot, and when you dig out the golden bumps, go home to marry a wife, cover the kang, and have a baby! I'm so excited."

Tian Modou didn't feel relaxed. Beads of sweat dripped down his forehead. He adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, "Er Gouzi! There's blood in the soil, and gold in the corpse." , can you be more careful, don't be so uneasy all day long.If it doesn't work out, all of our business will be left here. "

Gou Tou Geng was a little impatient when he heard this, "Look at how cowardly you look, the youngest with squinting eyes, sour scholar and poor scholar, how many times have you passed the field exam, how many times have you passed the oil bucket? Don't pretend to understand, It's okay to fool around there, except for my master Xia Jiu'er, I don't have your turn to teach me my master!"

Tian Modou was about to have an attack, but his fiancée Chu Weihong pulled the corner of his clothes, gave him a wink, and was busy trying to smooth things over: "You guys are brothers from the same school anyway, and now you're so anxious, why don't you have the time to talk about it here?"

The sky was dry, and the vegetation in the surrounding forest was "crackling", and the wind blew through, and a large area was burned. The raging fire illuminated the night sky, and the bright light burned the faces of the three people full of fear.The robbery hole had been dug to a bottomless depth, and if Xia Jiu'er hadn't dug all the way to the tomb, one could imagine the situation of the three of them.

Gou Tou Geng didn't dare to slack off, Tian Modou hurriedly stepped forward to help, the rope was pulled out from the robber's hole, and the soil in the dustpan seemed to have turned blood red.

"Damn it, it's not a problem! I can't stop anything!" Gou Tou Geng cursed, but his hands remained numb, "Fuck! Who the hell set fire in secret, this is determined to burn to death Let's, do you think it will be from the village?"

Tian Modou's heart trembled, he thought to himself, complaining endlessly, it's likely that someone discovered their evil plan and was the black hand behind it.Just as he was about to ask Gou Tou Geng's opinion on this matter, the rope in his hand became heavy and he couldn't pull it anymore.

At this time, Xia Jiu'er's slightly old voice came from the depths of the robbery cave, "Quick! Pull up."

The three of them worked hard together, and when they pulled up the dustpan from the robber's cave, there was a thin dwarf sitting inside, who was their master——Xia Jiu'er.

Xia Jiu'er looked at the situation on the ground, and her face darkened: "Hurry up, get down into the bucket to avoid the fire, or you will be sure to roast taro in a while."

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, their foreheads were dripping with sweat, knowing that the situation forced them, they hurriedly got into the bucket one by one.Xia Jiu'er was the first to retreat back into the robber's cave, followed by Goutou Geng and Chu Weihong. Before leaving, Xia Jiu'er specifically told Tian Modou to use a sickle to cut off all the thatch that was taller than a person in the sealed mound to prevent the The strong wind poured thick smoke into the robbery cave.

The robbery cave was built obliquely downwards, and only one person could crawl in. After Tian Modou cleaned up the thatch on the ground, he climbed into the robbery cave.

After crawling for about four or five meters, Tian Modou bumped his head against a piece of earth. He touched it with his hand, and suddenly there was a thud, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead in an instant, thinking that something bad happened.

Fortunately, Xia Jiu'er can be considered an old native, and unexpectedly, at such a critical moment, something went wrong. The time was short, the burglar's hole was dug unreasonably, and the front collapsed.When Tian Modou climbed here, the robbery cave was blocked. He was so anxious that he listened carefully and found that there seemed to be whispering voices coming from the depths of the robbery cave.

"Huh? What is this?" Gou Tou Geng's voice was full of surprise.

"Looks like an egg." Tian Modou didn't really hear it, it felt like Chu Weihong said it in a muffled voice.

"Wait!" Xia Jiu'er's voice suddenly increased, "There seems to be something moving inside!"

"Er Gouzi, don't touch me!"

……

Immediately afterwards, like lightning and flint, there was a weird sound from the depths of the robbery cave. At first glance, it sounded like a baby crying, and it hurt people's eardrums. "Srustly" fell straight down, and it seemed that the whole thing was about to collapse!

"Xiaotian, hurry up! Go back to the ground..." Xia Jiuer yelled this sentence with a drake-like voice, and then felt as if someone was covering her mouth or being choked Neck, before the half of the sentence was finished, it fell silent.

Then there was deathly silence.

Tian Modou was lying in the robber's cave, not daring to vent his breath. He just felt that something was wrong, and Xia Jiu'er might have guessed it from below.He has grown up so much, it's the first time for a big girl to get on the sedan chair in Xiadou today, unexpectedly something happened before he got down to the tomb.Tian Mo's heart was almost in his throat, although he tried his best to restrain himself, he still couldn't restrain the fear in his heart.Thinking that Chu Weihong was still deep in the robbery cave, he swallowed, touched the soil with his hands, and found that the soil was very soft, so he dug on the spot and began to push and pull the soil with his hands.

There was a rancid smell in the robbery cave, and a strong breath of death lingered all around. Tian Modou was so desperate to save his sweetheart that he was almost in a state of madness.Both hands were bruised, and the nails were turned over, but they didn't feel any pain.Just like that, after digging for an unknown amount of time, he suddenly touched a wet mass.

The touch from the palm of his hand told him that it seemed to be a mass of wriggling things. He withdrew his hand abruptly, took out a torch from his pocket, and put it tremblingly in his mouth to blow it on. Looking at the photo in front of him, a disgusting face suddenly appeared in front of him.

What a frightening face that is!The entire head was rotten and deformed severely, concave on the left and convex on the right.Fat maggots were wriggling all over his face, bloody and bloody with stinky pus, and a pale eyeball was hanging out of the eye socket, swinging from side to side.The maggot corpse was only exposed above the neck, and the countless maggots on its body were "fluttering" down, facing Tian Modou like that, staring at him with its head tilted.

The distance was so close that it seemed that he could feel the breath of the maggot corpse. Tian Modou was so startled that he almost peed on his pants, and wanted to back away from that thing as much as possible.

But it turned out that it was too late. The maggot corpse opened its big black mouth, and a blood-red mist suddenly spewed out from it. Gradually blurred.

In the haze, the maggot corpse seemed to crawl on his body. Slowly, he felt as if he was tied up with more than a dozen ropes and couldn't breathe. In the numbness, there seemed to be a heart-piercing pain, as if he was suffering from the pain. The punishment of being late.

When Tian Modou woke up, he found that he was still lying in the robbery cave, surrounded by pitch-black darkness, and the maggot corpse had crawled to nowhere, so he couldn't help but secretly rejoice.Just now in a panic, he lost the fire pocket and searched around but failed, so he had to rely on his own memory and continue to dig deeper into the robber's cave.

It was probably raining outside, and the rainwater flowed in along the robbery cave, making the cave walls extremely slippery.Tian Modou's two palms had lost a piece of good skin, and they were so numb that they didn't even look like his own. He pawed at the dirt with his hands and slowly crawled deep into the robber's cave.

Suddenly, he felt as if he had grabbed a rope again, and in ecstasy he wanted to pull it up.Because he remembered that when his master Xia Jiuer was fighting, he was indeed wearing an "earth fairy rope". If he pulled it up, it would be better to die than to die in the tomb.

In fact, Tian Modou's heart was half cold at this time, and he didn't dare to have too much hope for the three people below the robbery cave to survive. After such a long time, he was suffocated to death, and he had even prepared the worst plan.Tian Modou pulled the rope up vigorously, and felt that the rope was coated with a layer of glue, which was slippery and greasy.The hole was slippery and he had no leverage, so he backed away and rubbed against the ground.

The mountain fire outside has already been extinguished, the thunder is deafening with the downpour, and the dazzling lightning seems to tear the earth apart.Tian Modou was already exhausted when he climbed out of the robbery cave, and the cold rain poured on him to wake him up a bit. When he was about to pull out the rope from the robbery cave with all his strength, he didn't want to use too much force. All of a sudden, the rope broke strangely with a "snap".

The rope was brought from the village. The ramie was twisted to be as thick as a thumb, and it took a long time to cut it with a paratrooper knife.Tian Modou was stunned for a moment, and looked down at the cut rope in his hand, feeling the creeps on his skin, and threw it out like an electric shock.

That is not a rope at all, but a section of human intestines!The other end was at the entrance of the robber's cave, where a pile of heart, liver, spleen, lung, and kidney were bloody and steaming.

Tian Modou couldn't bear it anymore, his stomach was overwhelmed, and he vomited all the contents in his stomach.Everything around him was tormenting his fragile and sensitive nerves wantonly, and he couldn't help but want to stay away from that ancient tomb. He was terrified from the bottom of his heart, and the strong sense of fear made him shiver.

Tian Modou walked slowly under a big tree with decadent steps.When I moved my limbs, I felt like I was imprisoned, and I panicked.It's just that I am physically exhausted and tired, so I want to sit down and rest.

But the neck felt itchy, as if some insects were crawling. He scratched it off and saw that it was a fat maggot.

And almost at the same time, a strange laughter that made the scalp tingle suddenly exploded in his ears.He straightened his neck and looked back, an unprecedented fear instantly filled his whole body.

The maggot corpse has been lying on his back, never leaving, and he himself is completely unconscious!
There was a sudden sharp pain in the chest, Tian Modou looked down and couldn't believe his eyes.The ribs of the maggot corpse behind were piercing into its own chest one by one, like two huge withered hands dunking into the flesh, it actually wanted to become one with itself! !

"Don't!" Tian Modou yelled loudly, his desperate cry echoed in the pitch-black sky...
