Chapter 58 The Moving Mountain
Chapter 58 The Moving Mountain
Master Sun Jiu was full of hatred. There was nothing he could not sacrifice for what he wanted to do. Shirley Yang, Fatty and the youngest girl, in his eyes, were like grass, and could give up without hesitation. What he did could no longer be measured by common sense.
Although I was wary of Master Sun Jiu and kept staring at his actions, at that moment, my attention was attracted by the abnormal phenomena that appeared in the "Dixian Village". Who would have thought that if he had a secret and a little bit of energy, he would take advantage of the loophole and completely cut off everyone's retreat.
I don't want to use the life and death of everyone to test the true "power" of fate. In a rage, I pushed Master Sun Jiu to the ground, but at this time the coffin worms were already swarming from the village, and I could also pay attention to him now. Looking around, I saw several stone archways behind me, spanning across the sky at both ends of the deep valley.
I guess that when I escape from the ancient wall of the deep valley to the Lingxing Hall, I will definitely be trapped by the coffin worms halfway, so I pointed my hand and called the fat man and others to climb up to the stone yard quickly.
Master Sun Jiu struggled from the ground to stop everyone again. The fat man had already been angry with him. Seeing this, he pulled out the engineer shovel and slapped Master Sun Jiu's head with a shovel.
Although Sun Jiuye wore a mountaineering helmet on his head, he still couldn't bear it because of the fat engineer's shovel. He fell to the ground with his eyes rolled.
I said let Sun Laojiu change his destiny by himself, let's withdraw quickly! Shirley Yang couldn't bear to leave Sun Jiu alone and shouted at me: "You must bring him with you." So he and his youngest sister pulled Professor Sun's legs down and dragged him to Shifang desperately.
I had no choice but to grit my teeth and help the fat man carry it. The four of them carried Sun Jiuye and dragged it under the pillar of the stone yard like a dead dog.
At this time, Yang Sui in the ring-shaped stone troughs were buried by the corpses of the coffin worms. The light nearby suddenly darkened. In the darkness, I found that many coffin worms had crawled to the soles of their feet. Although they were frightened and unintentionally gnawed on living people, the coffin worms were full of rotten poisons and rotted wherever they crawled. They could only avoid them from far away to survive.
I asked the fat man to carry Master Sun Jiu. Everyone climbed to a high place with the dragon pillars of the stone yard. As soon as they stepped up, there was a "hurrying" sound from the bottom. I looked down and saw the light of the tactical spotlights hitting the ground. Groups of coffin insects crawling past the stone pillars like black tides. There were also many gophers, earthen turtles, tombs, ferrets, poisonous snakes, and many strange insects and beasts that could not be called. Anyway, they were all things that were in dark environments such as "cemeteries, tombs".
The coffin mountain is not a netherworld as seen on the surface. Although it is wrapped in copper armor, due to the special environment, the rotten air of the hanging coffin breeds in the cliffs surrounding it like a coffin board, and many creatures have always survived, forming an opposing and completely closed ecosystem. Or these things are the "food" of Jiushi Jinglingjia. At this moment, the creatures near the immortal village in the survival area are as if they are suffering from a disaster and flee to the underground chalcedony cave.
Whether it is insects or animals, their keen intuition and premonition of disaster are far beyond human reach. This situation will occur in the mountain fairy village of coffin, which can only indicate that a terrible catastrophe is coming, but there seem to be more powerful drugs arranged between the cliffs below. All coffin worms crawled onto the wall and froze to death, and the raindrop-like corpses fell from the jade cave.
We were trapped on the stone yard, holding beams and pillars, and witnessing this scene that seemed to the arrival of the end of the world, we couldn't help but feel a chill in our hearts, but no one knew what would happen next. Just when we were helpless, I saw Master Sun Jiu, who was tucked in one arm by the fat man, suddenly woke up.
Master Sun Jiu found that the fat man was climbing up the stone yard with him, and immediately reached out to touch the "Emei Thorn" he carried with him. I could see clearly from the side. Seeing that he wanted to commit a crime, he shouted, "You are looking for death!"
The fat man also felt something was wrong and cursed: "I dare to play with Fat Master, and I will kill you an old turtle!" He raised his hand and let Master Sun Jiu loosen up and threw him down the stone pillar.
Seeing that Master Sun Jiu was about to fall into the abyss from mid-air, Shirley Yang threw down his flying tiger claws, and his claws were just placed on the backpack strap in front of Master Sun Jiu. The steel rope tightened and actually hung Master Sun Jiu in the air.
Master Sun Jiu's body, hooked by the flying tiger claws, kept spinning under the stone yard. Shirley Yang tried his best to pull him up, but under the violent sway, the junction of the pillars and beams of the stone yard fell, and the danger was everywhere. This ancient archway has at least hundreds of years of history. How could it be so hard? You know that it would collapse at any time when you hear the sound and trembling.
The stone yard is not strong, and the two pillars and one beam are extremely narrow. I climbed up and couldn't move at all, so I had to shout to Shirley Yang: "Don't worry about Sun Laojiu. Even if I save him now, we will be killed by him sooner or later."
Shirley Yang was gradually unable to support his weight and could no longer speak. But when I looked at her eyes, I knew that with her personality, she would never let go until she died. Seeing that her hands were blooming, she had been broken by the chain of "Flying Tiger Claws". Blood flowed down the ropes and fell on Professor Sun's face, and she couldn't help but feel anxious for her.
Master Sun Jiu hung in the air with his forks, touching the blood on his face, and shouting in a hoarse voice: "Miss Yang... let go. It seems that the destined thing... will never change. Before the destruction of the Coffin Mountain, we are destined to be safe." As he said that, he pulled out the Emei thorn and cut the strap of his backpack, trying to break free from the "Flying Tiger Claw" lock.
The fat man wanted Mr. Sun Jiu to fall into Shifang and fall to pieces. He even forgot the old habit of altitude sickness on his body. He lay on the Shifang and kept saying a reminder - telling Mr. Sun Jiu to use a knife to cut off a part of his backpack in order to make difficult "free fall" movements in the shortest time.
The youngest girl couldn't bear to see the tragedy happen. She scolded the fat man for fanning the flames and never had a good effect. She also advised Mr. Sun Jiu not to do stupid things. Although she was determined to help Shirley Yang, she was very afraid of the "coffin worm". Seeing the worms rushing on the cliff under her body, she was so scared that her hands and feet were soft, and she was anxious and powerless.
At this time, four people were lying on the stone yard one by one. The one at the front was Shirley Yang and the Young Meier, and then the Fatty. I was on the outside. I wanted to help Shirley Yang but was blocked by the Young Meier and the Fatty. It can be said that it was "out of reach" and was powerless, but when I saw Shirley Yang's hands were almost cut off, I could no longer hold back.
I had no choice but to risk falling down in the deep valley at any time, climbed over from the fat man and the youngest girl, moved to Shirley Yang, leaned over and caught the steel chain of the flying tiger claws wrapped in my hand. I wanted to lift Master Sun Jiu from below, but this was quite moving. I felt a sudden pain in my hand, and the entire stone yard was shaking and shaking.
Before I could pull him to the stone yard, Sun Jiu's backpack strap had already been cut off the side of the claws, and his body fell into the dark cracks in the mountain.
At this moment, I felt like fifteen buckets of water fell into my heart - I moved up and down, and couldn't tell what it felt like. I didn't feel "liberation" or "lost". I vaguely felt that Professor Sun might not die if he fell into the deep ravine. Moreover, from the various signs on him, it seemed that from the beginning of entering the "Wuyang King Underground Palace", he was like a "walking corpse".
In addition, if the "Apocalypse" deduced by the prisoners of the Earth Immortal Tomb really appeared, Master Sun Jiu would not have fallen to pieces. Perhaps the incident of his falling from the stone yard is destined to happen. What we know at present is only an uncertain "result", and in this process... it is also full of variables and unknowns.
I took a deep breath and looked up at the other three people. They all looked confused. Maybe everyone wanted to ask: "Will the final disaster in the revelation of the heavenly signs happen?" But except for the passing time, no one could give the real "answer".
At this time, most of the coffin worms that escaped from Dixian Village were already dead in the deep ravine at the entrance of Lingxing Hall. Except for the thick fog above the head, the trembling metal friction sounds of Jiude Jingling Armor trembled from time to time, and there was silent everywhere. But I knew very well that the quieter the air was, the more it indicates that greater danger was coming. This was a kind of dullness before the storm came.
Just as I thought about it, I felt a continuous and ominous sound coming from afar. The terrain of Coffin Mountain was narrow and long. We were in the rift valley on the abdomen of Pangu. The "Dixian Village" was built on the mountainous direction of Pangu's chest and abdomen. The source of the sound came from the upper head of Coffin Mountain, which was the direction of the neck of the Coffin Mountain.
As the sound came, there were continuous vibrations. When I saw that the stone yard was about to fall apart, I hurriedly called the other three people down. Everyone was disoriented. What was going to happen in the coffin mountain? Is this movement a broken sky and the earth cracked? Is it an earthquake caused by the breaking of the earth veins? Or is the Jiushi Jingling Armor crushing the mountain?
I was in a daze and said to myself, "Is it going to be an earthquake and landslide? In this way, we will be buried underground with Coffin Mountain forever..."
The fat man said, "Old Hu, I think the car doesn't fall, so I have to continue to retreat. Don't worry about what's going on in the mountains, we have to continue to run, and one run is one."
At this moment, I suddenly heard someone shouting loudly at us behind me. I quickly looked back and saw a figure across the deep valley. The spotlights could not shine on him. But the voice of the man was Sun Jiuye. It turned out that as soon as he fell from the stone yard, he was hung by the wooden stakes on the plank road between the cliffs. He did not fall directly into the jade cave and died, but he could only climb up from the opposite side.
This was not unexpected, and I ignored him. Now I always felt that the farther away from this person, the better. But when Master Sun Jiu's shouting, he seemed to be telling us: "Don't move the place, just stay where I am waiting for me. I finally know the truth about the apocalypse! What happened now is not an earthquake... not an earthquake..." As he shouted, he was shaking the mountain and actually climbed the stone yard and crossed the rift again.
The four of us never believed Mr. Sun Jiu's words again. Who knew if he wanted to use the lives of everyone to verify the authenticity of the "Apocalypse". I said to Shirley Yang, "Don't worry about Mr. Sun Jiu anymore. He is not a living person like you and me at all. He is probably a zombie running out of the coffin mountain. This mountain is about to collapse, let's go."
Then I didn't say anything and pulled Shirley Yang to take the lead and left. The fat man and the youngest girl followed and asked, "Where are we going?" I pointed to the cliff that was as tall as a sarcophagus board. The earthquake would cause large-scale collapse of the mountain. The coffin mountain was like a sarcophagus without cover. The rocks falling from above would completely bury the Pangu vein. In the entire coffin mountain, only the surrounding stone walls were relatively safe.
Amid the strong tremor and landslide of the mountain, we could no longer walk normally. We had to support the stone tablets and pillars beside us and jumped toward the cliff. As soon as we ran through the Yangmarid ditch surrounding the crack, we found that Sun Jiuye was also rushing over from the other side of the rift.
Before we could speak, Sun Jiuye said first: "It's not an earthquake..." Before he finished speaking, the earth seemed to be suddenly lifted, and the ground tilted rumbling. Everyone was unsteady and fell to the ground involuntarily. Moreover, the tilt of the ground gradually became larger. After falling, they could no longer stand up and could only lie on the ground.
At this time, it was like "the sky shook and the earth moved", and the coffin was full of rumbling sounds. We were lying on the ground and crawling desperately into the gap of the cliff. Finally, we were caught under the mountain wall. Everyone found the cave where the hanging coffin was hidden before and drilled in. The mountain wall was extremely thick, and the "Jiu Dead Jingling Armor" on the outside had not yet come in. We could temporarily avoid the collapsed gravel on the top of the mountain.
Seeing that Master Sun Jiu was following, the fat man cursed: "Who did he want to miss his grandmother? Even a fool can tell this situation. What is it not an earthquake? Judging from the amplitude, it is estimated that it is at least 8 or 9."
I said: "I have experienced earthquakes and should not be wrong. It must be the vibration caused by Jiushi Jinglingjia that destroyed the earth veins. But it is impossible to have a magnitude nine. The magnitude nine earthquake is almost a devastating land-sinking earthquake, and even the entire mountain range can sink into the ground."
Master Sun Jiu seemed anxious to tell us something, but he was out of breath. For a moment, he couldn't make a sound. I was worried that he would do something to tie him up. Unexpectedly, the ground was inclined more and more, and the sound of the rock wall was particularly loud, and the deafening trembled like a wave, which made people's ears almost break. The sound of speaking was completely swallowed up, and gravel kept rolling through the cave where we were hiding, with many tiles.
I was shocked suddenly. The tilt of the mountain would inevitably cause the houses in Dixian Village to collapse. If we had not left the stone yard on the jade cave of Lingxing Hall, we would have to be buried by the broken tiles pouring down along the terrain. We had just had a sudden idea to hide in the hanging coffin cave on the cliff, mostly because we didn't want to listen to Master Sun Jiu's words. Is it really my life worthy of being like this?
If there is indeed a "destiny" destined by heaven in the world, I seem to have felt the "gravity" that dominates destiny in the dark. In the huge catastrophe that will occur in the entire Dixian Village, no matter whether we make any action consciously or unconsciously, it is impossible to prevent the final disaster from happening. Invisibly, there is a mysterious force that cannot be seen by mortals control everything. And we, the people trapped in the "Coffin Mountain", are just a grain of sand in the desert storm, and like a drop of water in the vast ocean. No matter how hard we struggle, we will always be involuntarily.
But judging from this situation, the Coffin Mountain will be buried deep into the ground in an instant. The Coffin Mountain is surrounded by the mountains and ridges in the Coffin Gorge, just like the skyscrapers pressing on the top. If the earthquake is severe, it will cause a larger-scale collapse of the mountain. Even if the Qianren High Mountain cracks from it, the falling gravel and soil can bury the Coffin Mountain. If that is the case... How could countless dead people who were dead in the "dixian Village" predicted in the Apocalypse will climb out of the mountain, so how could it happen?
Master Sun Jiu suddenly stood up and grabbed my shoulder tightly, wanting me to listen to him, but the mountains kept roaring and shaking, I could only watch his mouth moving, but I couldn't understand what he wanted to tell us.
Seeing that Mr. Sun Jiu could not speak, he tried his best to gesture. At this moment, everyone seemed to be in a violently bumpy carriage. There were only a few faint spotlights in the darkness, but I quickly understood the message that Mr. Sun Jiu wanted to convey to us. After a moment, I couldn't help but be surprised, as if even the soul in the body was trembling with the earthquake.
I judged that Mr. Sun Jiu might want to say: "This is not an ordinary earthquake, but a mountain of coffin is moving. It will not be buried underground. This mountain filled with dead bodies and ancient tombs of various dynasties... will soon enter the Yangtze River."
The earthquake phenomenon in "Coffin Mountain" is unusual, unlike the movement of the rock formations of the "Jiu Death Jingling Armor" to crush the ground veins. At this time, the mountains were constantly subjected to the squeezing of copper armor, but it was not as violent as before.
