Chapter 103 The Ancient Shu King's Mischief
Because Mr. Liao's repeated strange laughter was frightening, the mice in front couldn't bear it and confronted him, openly expressing their dissatisfaction.
But Mr. Liao ignored them, only responding with a cold snort.
One of the mice couldn't stand it and simply complained to the zhi guo de (one who sets up the pot, the leader), saying to Boss Wang, "Zhi guo de, I know Mr. Liao is a distinguished guest you invited, but he can't always be so eccentric, right? How can the brothers concentrate on the road? You should say something."
I was behind and couldn't see the expressions on Boss Wang and Mr. Liao's faces. I could only hear Boss Wang reluctantly saying to Mr. Liao, "Mr. Liao, what's wrong with you? Are you too tired from moving corpses? Or do you have any opinions about us? If you have any opinions, you can raise them. Let's talk it out."
But Mr. Liao still didn't answer, just snorted coldly again: "Hmph!"
The mouse next to him became unhappy and scolded sharply, "Old codger! What the hell is your attitude? I'm telling you, I can tolerate you being disrespectful to me, but if you dare to be disrespectful to our zhi guo de, believe it or not, the brothers will bury you alive!"
After being scolded a few times, Mr. Liao not only didn't get angry, but started laughing strangely again. This laughter was even more arrogant and terrifying than before. Listening from behind, it was like a madman laughing.
"Heh heh heh... Heh heh heh..."
The mouse in front probably couldn't bear it anymore and raised his hand to slap Mr. Liao's face. There was a "smack" and the mouse cursed loudly, "You motherfucker, you don't appreciate a good offer? You're really asking for a beating!"
Seeing this, Boss Wang quickly shouted, "Dajun, what the hell are you doing? Calm down!"
Unfortunately, it was too late. After being slapped firmly by Dajun, Mr. Liao suddenly went berserk. With a strange roar of "Aww," he actually pounced directly on Dajun.
Me, Uncle Mei, and Sister Hong were behind them in the tunnel, only able to vaguely see the headlamps in front shaking constantly. Then we heard someone anxiously shouting, "Stop fighting! Stop fighting! Don't collapse the tunnel! We'll all die!"
Boss Wang also quickly took charge of the situation and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Liao, Dajun was wrong to do this. I'll have him apologize to you, okay? Please, give me some face. Harmony brings wealth, harmony brings wealth!"
But the next second, I heard Dajun's scream. He shouted desperately, "Damn it! This old codger is biting people! He's biting me! He's biting me!"
Then came the sound of a diving knife being drawn. Dajun roared, "I'll fucking kill you, you old bitch!"
Sister Hong was frightened by the scene, hugging my neck and shivering, constantly saying, "They're crazy, they're all crazy! The ancient Shu king must be showing his power. He wants to kill us all in this ancient tomb!"
Uncle Mei turned around and told me, "Mr. Liao and Dajun are fighting. Mr. Liao bit off a piece of flesh from Dajun's shoulder, and Dajun is going to chop Mr. Liao."
In the chaos, I heard Boss Wang shout, "Quick, stop Dajun, stop Dajun. Don't let him kill Mr. Liao!"
But with the sound of several knives, the tunnel began to fill with a bloody smell. I guessed that Dajun had succeeded and definitely cut Mr. Liao a few times.
Next, I heard Mr. Liao roar again, seemingly struggling in his death throes, followed by Dajun's screams.
Because this tunnel was too narrow, and Mr. Liao was dragging an ancient corpse, the other mice couldn't go up to break them up at all. They could only watch them kill each other.
Me, Sister Hong, and Uncle Mei were at the end of the team, eight feet away from Mr. Liao and the others, so it was even more impossible to help.
Seeing Mr. Liao and Dajun fighting more and more fiercely, both clearly wanting to fight to the death, I suddenly felt the ground shaking under my feet.
Someone shouted, "Damn it! The tunnel is collapsing! The tunnel is collapsing!"
The next second, I felt a lightness in my body and suddenly lost my balance. I actually fell down from the current tunnel!
The tunnel really collapsed!
But it wasn't the top that collapsed, but the bottom.
I never expected that the tunnel was hollow underneath!
I rolled a few times in the darkness and fell to the ground with a "thump." Just as I was about to get up, a warm and fragrant body rolled down and landed on me. It was Sister Hong, who was in front of me.
Not long after, Uncle Mei also rolled down from above and landed a few steps away from me.
Fortunately, the drop wasn't too high, and none of us were injured.
I pushed Sister Hong off me and looked around. I saw that this seemed to be a tunnel as well, but it was much wider than the one Baiyi Xiangu (White-Clothed Immortal Woman) had dug. Its scale was comparable to the tunnel that Boss Wang and the others had dug.
At this time, Uncle Mei also said, "It seems that this is also a tunnel. I didn't expect there to be so many tomb robbers searching for treasure in this mausoleum."
After speaking, he walked to the edge of the tunnel, touched the chiseling marks on the rock wall, and deduced, "Gu yuan jin fang (ancient round, near square). The four walls of this tunnel have been polished very smoothly. It looks like it's been around for a while, at least several hundred years old."
Uncle Mei had learned this trick from Jiang Yongguang in the Tuojiang tomb. He could deduce the age of the tunnel through the smoothness of the tunnel.
Sister Hong immediately looked at Uncle Mei with new eyes and praised, "Oh ho, you even know gu yuan jin fang? I didn't expect you to be so knowledgeable."
Before she could finish speaking, another roar came from not far ahead. I looked up and saw that Mr. Liao was still fighting with Dajun.
Mr. Liao was covered in blood. I couldn't see clearly where his wounds were from this distance, but Dajun wasn't doing any better. His face and neck were also covered in blood, a truly terrible sight!
Seeing this, Sister Hong couldn't help but gasp and exclaimed, "They're crazy! They're all crazy! The ancient Shu king must be causing trouble! We shouldn't have brought that evil thing out!"
But in this tunnel, the space had become much wider, and the mice could go up to break them up.
Xiao Liu, Biantou, and the others turned back and went to control Mr. Liao, who was biting Dajun like a mad dog.
But even with these two taking action, they couldn't hold down a frenzied Mr. Liao. When he struggled, the hemp rope on his body came loose, and he threw away the bamboo pole, leaving the ancient Shu king on the ground.
He shouted and yelled, biting anyone he saw!
With the light of the headlamps, I saw that Mr. Liao's eyes had turned blood red, and his pupils were full of dense blood vessels, so ferocious!
Xiao Liu's body was relatively thin, and in the blink of an eye, Mr. Liao overturned him to the ground. Mr. Liao straddled him and bit his neck without saying a word.
With a scream, Xiao Liu's blood gushed out!
Mr. Liao's bite must have hit the carotid artery!
Seeing this, Biantou was startled and quickly kicked Mr. Liao away, but Mr. Liao was still not reconciled and struggled to get up again, rushing towards Biantou!
I was dumbfounded. Why did I feel like Mr. Liao had really turned into those zombies in horror movies? Could it be that what Sister Hong said was true? Was all this caused by the ancient Shu king?
