the last priest

Zamu couldn't describe what kind of face it was. In Tibet, there are also ghosts, but Tibetan ghosts are all included in the Lamaism system. Both humans and ghosts believe in Lamaism, which is Tibetan Buddhism.So Tibetan lamas are not afraid of ghosts, but this face really frightened Zha Mu quite a bit.

He gestured with both hands: "It's this big." After thinking for a while, he drew a bigger circle in the air and said, "No, no, it's this big. Well, it might be even bigger!"

Chaozi was afraid that he was talking nonsense, and the atmosphere was already tense, so he said angrily, "Who are you bluffing?"

Zha Brown quickly waved his Buddhist robe and explained: "Our lamas are not allowed to tell nonsense, it's really that big!"

Cha Wenbin thought for a while and said, "How big is the biggest face you've ever seen?"

Zhuo Xiong thought about it, the biggest thing he had ever seen was probably Da Shan's fleshy face, which was similar to the bottom of a medium-sized washbasin.But it is far from the one Zha Brown gestured, the one Zha Brown gestured is bigger than the tub.

"It seems that there is an unusual face here." Reminiscent of all the things before, everyone who saw it repeated the phrase 'what a big face', but those people were either crazy or passed away. The only one Zha Bei, who saw the reflection, was unable to describe it in words. What kind of face should this be?

It turned out that the new cafeteria planned to be built in the school was still in the piling stage. This part of the project was taken over by Cha Wenbin and the others. It was said to the outside that it was under construction, but it was not.The next day, Chaozi asked someone to get several excavators from the provincial capital, and the necessary detonators and explosives were already in place. Compared with a few years ago, it is much more difficult to get these things now.

The masters of the excavator are a few young guys. They have been doing engineering all year round, and they often dig out some weird things from the ground. Coffins and the like are very common, and they are quite courageous.The mud of Yangcun Middle School, once dug down, there is a thick layer of bones mixed with loess, and various pottery fragments mixed with rotten wood.

Chaozi had seen the pottery sherds that came out, and the time span was very large, but all of them were civilian products, and no precious official kilns were seen.That means that most of the people buried in this field are also civilians.

After three days of continuous digging, the depth was close to ten meters. Without exception, it was loess, and no decent stone was touched. At this time, the color of the soil began to change from yellow to red.

It is not surprising that there is red soil in the southern mountainous area, that is because the iron oxide content in the soil is high.But the water seeping out of the soil was also red, and later, it was like fresh blood, and it could scoop up half of the water with one paw.

They brought in the water pump again, and they had only one purpose, to dig all the way down, and no one could say where they were going to go, and no one knew.

On the fifth day, the surrounding soil looked like it had been splashed with red paint. The windshield of the excavator was completely blood red, and the water also began to look strange.

A fishy smell, a strong fishy smell began to appear.Not only Yangcun Middle School, but also the people of Yangcun where the middle school is located can smell a fishy smell in the air.Anyone who has raised pigs at home in rural areas and has seen bloodletting of pigs when they are killed will know that smell.

The fishy smell came on suddenly after one night, and several people in their sleep were woken up by the smell.The water in the pit began to flow out continuously, and the two excavators parked below were completely submerged, and the water pump was too late to work. The entire playground of Yangcun Middle School turned red, and the bloody smell filled the sky. People's scalp is numb, which makes people feel nauseous.

Zabu kept turning his prayer wheel engraved with the six-character mantra, saying "Om, ma, ni, bah, me, hum", and bluntly said that this is the Shura of the human world, and he would send all these demons and ghosts into the world. Avici hell.

Cha Wenbin frowned and said nothing. All the hired workers fled. They dare not take this kind of work anymore.The water in that pit does not rise during the day, but at night.The water level dropped extremely quickly during the day, but at night, the big pit was like a fountain, with blood-red water spraying up to two or three meters above the ground.

Chaozi went to borrow a few more water pumps, but at night, the red water still gushed out, and then receded by itself during the day.This kind of tossing lasted for three days, and everyone in Yangcun closed their doors and windows, and they were really scared by the fishy smell.

In those few days, nothing dirty appeared, and they couldn't sleep in the house, only Zhabi yelled that there were too many devils here all day long.

On the fourth day, the water stopped gushing, and the water level in the pit began to gradually recede. The bottom of the pit had collapsed and a large hole came out. The two excavators were stuck at the entrance of the hole, and it was too dark to see clearly. .

The geology in the pothole is extremely unstable at this time due to the continuous impact of water pressure, but no one can guarantee whether the water will continue in the future, because the weather forecast shows that there will be a flood in the northwest in a week. Extensive precipitation.The location of Yangcun Middle School is originally a mountain depression. With heavy rainfall and unstable ground subsidence, this pothole may be buried again.

After weighing several times, they decided to go down for a walk.

Loess is extremely viscous, while red soil is even greater, but after being exposed to water, these soils become very fragile, because the water content will double the weight of the soil, and whether it can support the pressure on the surface becomes the key.

The fishy smell inside the cave was stronger than outside, and Chaozi was the first one to go down, holding his nose.Because there is nowhere to focus, the equipment is first placed on the excavator stuck in the hole.The opening of the hole is very big, half the size of an excavator. When Chaozi was packing his luggage, he found that the iron rake of the excavator got stuck on a metal object with obvious broken marks.

It was a thick and broken water pipe, about the thickness of a bucket used in ordinary times. The broken marks on the surface were still new, and sporadic red water droplets were still dripping from the broken part of the water pipe.Chaozi wanted to go over and smell it, but he was immediately overwhelmed by the fishy smell. He realized that the pipe might not be that simple.

The remaining few people also got down to the position of the excavator one after another, and Chaozi told them what he found.The surface of this pipe was already covered with copper rust, and the red soil was extremely corrosive, and the state of the surface of the pipe could not be discerned at all, but the broken cut surface was five or six centimeters thick, and it was still as bright as new.

Chaozi pointed behind him and said: "The water is discharged from here. It should be the excavator who dug up the pipe, but it seems that the pipe ends here, and there is no other end."

"Is it the sewers buried by the ancients?" Zhuo Xiong asked.

Zha Wenbin thought to himself that even if it was a sewer or some kind of underground drainage facility, it is impossible for the pipe to disappear here, otherwise where would the water go? He said: "Probably not, it seems that the pipe ends here It’s the end, there is no pipe on the side where the excavator broke the hole, if it is a pipe, there should be an exit, not a half-way. If you can go down and find the broken part, maybe it will be clearer.”

Below is the part of the landslide. The huge potholes exposed make people standing on the excavator feel uncertain, like a beast with a huge mouth that can swallow the entire ground in a second.

If you don't enter the tiger's lair, how can you get a tiger? It's always been the behavior style of this group of people. Zha Brown was indescribably excited about this unknown. Holding the prayer wheel, he kept urging Chaozi to take him down first. It is said that this must be the devil's lair.

Chaozi didn't dare to make up his mind lightly. The risk of going down the whole pit is too great. Even if there is no landslide, if the pipe suddenly leaks water, the people below will definitely be drowned. He asked: "Brother Wenbin ,what do you say?"

Cha Wenbin picked up a stone and threw it, and there was a "pop" from below. "It's dry. If there is no water level, we can at least go in and stay until the evening. The weight of this excavator is several tons, and it can be stuck. It should last for a while."

From here, the distance was not as deep as they thought, but it reached the bottom within ten meters.The situation at the bottom was somewhat beyond their expectations. The whole lower layer was very dry, except for a little red water stain left in a low-lying place next to it.

Soon, they found the broken pipe, which surprised everyone.The other end of this pipe is not a pipe, but a utensil!

It is not accurate to say that it is an artifact. Chaozi found it in a low-lying place.Several of them adult men could not move a single bit, it was a huge dragon head, the broken part was the neck, and the whole dragon's head fell into the deep pit.After removing the attached soil, they found that the faucets were too big.

Chaozi measured it around with his hands and sighed: "My God, if this is the head, how big is the whole dragon?"

"At least over 100 meters!" Zha Wenbin said affirmatively, "This material, this weight and volume, cannot be poured in a temple. This is not a dragon, it is an Ao!"

"Ao?" Several other people thought it was a dragon's head. Dragon patterns can be seen everywhere in China, and both adults and children recognize it. But why did Cha Wenbin say it was an Ao?

"Look carefully at the broken part. If it is a dragon, the scales on the neck should be dragon scales, which are in the shape of blocks, but this one is vertical stripes and wavy. This pattern is to imitate the neck of a turtle, so, I It is determined that this is Aotou, not Longtou, and the place we are now is probably the legendary Aofu!"
