Chapter 0001 It's not a waste of time.

  A bright light streaked through the passageway of the tomb, and the man with the bright flashlight shone around, exploring the stone walls and vaulted ceiling of the passageway and the darkness ahead.   As the bright light shone close to the stone walls, the darkness glowed with the man's appearance.   Middle-aged man, thin, back hair unruffled, white face, essence, two eyes very god, calm and relaxed demeanor.   The whole person cleaned up and dressed neatly, a black Tang suit, holding a straight cane.   So neat makeup appeared in this kind of tomb environment, do not know feel rare, know will feel very normal. This is a "underground archaeologist", known as the early years of the jianghu thief, and later with the jianghu seniority as well as the status of the growth of the people are honored as the master of the road.   Today, under normal circumstances, Master Dao are in seclusion and purification, really like Taoist priests in general, seldom personally horse, only to meet the more interesting places will personally walk, such as the shape of the tomb in front of you is very rare.   Walking stick with the pace of thud click on the ground, to the ground issued a "when" a metal impact sound, the master stopped, and did not rush to look at the ground, but the eyes with the flashlight light column scanning around the front, the eyes appeared in front of a huge underground space in the dark, the light column irradiation can be roughly distinguished to the tomb of the underground palace, so huge underground palace! Extremely rare.   Roughly observed around, flashlight light column to the feet, cane on the ground again "when when" knocked a few times, and with the toes on the ground rubbed twice, scraping away a piece of dust, revealing a slightly bronze-colored glossy metal ground.   Cane lift, clamped under the arm with a flashlight, free hand naturally hanging put, and slowly false palm, underground dust slightly appear cyclone, suddenly turned the palm toward the front of a push, the internal force of the spray, palm wind whistling blew out, all the way to swing away from the ground in front of the accumulation of dust, and even shoot a few palms, the dust flying.   Hand grabbed the cane and pestle at the side of the waiting, churning dust is difficult to get close to its body, strong flashlight toward the palm wind scrape away the dust on the ground, you can tell, a dozen meters ahead of the radius of the ground are paved with metal, not just a small piece of the place under the foot, the metal ground seems to have a carved pattern, not to remove all of the accumulated dust, then, it is difficult to see the complete true face.   When the dust settles, the Taoist master continued to lean on the cane forward, flashlight from time to time to look at the dome above, this dungeon around, there are several dark entrances, as he walked into the tunnel in general, but I do not know where to go, the end of the hidden what secrets.   "This kind of shape is really not seen, interesting ......" Master Dao smiled and muttered, but his feet issued a click, seems to step on the ground to sink a piece, followed by the underground seems to come from the buzzing sound, the movement of organic springs in the ring.   Boom! The direction of the tunnel that came in came from the shocking sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.   Master Dao's face changed slightly, with his experience, he knew at once that the passageway coming in had been blocked by something falling.   Immediately followed by a few other dark cave entrances came a dull creaking sound, as if some heavy door had opened.   Taoist master feet loose, retreated a few steps, flashlight quickly ring light around, know that is stepped on the mechanism, do not know what triggered the tomb of the mechanism arrangement, can break in and out of the channel, it means that this mechanism is not good.   He was highly alert to the surrounding, but after waiting for a while, the surrounding area was quiet, could not hear any movement.   On the contrary, in the direction of the entrance came "bam" an explosion of vibration, vibration of the ground here are trembling, buzzing sound echoed in the underground palace.   Soon, he sensed the buzzing reverberation sound came from a different movement, flashlight quickly shone toward a dark hole, seems to be something running movement, light under a pair of green eyes from the depths of the hole appeared, followed by the outline of the complete rendering of a ragged man appeared.   Also not like a person, dry corpse-like, covered with long white hair, sharp teeth, flashlight under the eyes of green light, ten fingers pointed claws green and black sharp, wildly rushed out of the hole, let out a roar and lunged straight at him, all around the hole have appeared.   Zombies! Master Dao flashed a thought in his head, hands did not stop, cane handle twisted, along the way a cold light from the staff within the sheath, the body flickered fast back a step, sideways to avoid the zombie harsh pounce, hand up a sword light, instantly from the zombie neck with a puddle of green blood.   Zombie head flew out, and body separated, body bam smashed on the ground, in the ground convulsions, climbed a few times can not climb up.   Master Taoist movement but did not stop, the hands of the sword light flashes, a pouncing silhouette was chopped down to the ground, only to see the flashlight in front of his body shaking.   Not only one zombie, the surrounding cave entrance inside the zombies constantly roaring towards him rushed wildly, more and more.   Under the siege, caught off guard, only in the hands of the sword has been too late to defend the enemy, hands and feet, in a hurry, a sword stabbed through the heart of a zombie, but found that stabbing through the heart part is useless, the zombie is still a claw shot to. Taoist body under a foot soared out, the force of the majestic, the zombie kicked backward flew out and knocked over the back of a few, not waiting for the feet to fall, the body of the air spinning back kick, and kicked a fly, and once again twisting the waist in the air and turn the leg leg kicking, quickly kicked off a few, and in the hands of the cold light and chopped down a few heads.   A little work, he has fallen around more than twenty strong fierce zombies, under siege, but not a zombie can hurt him, but his hands and feet can not stop. Normal people are afraid that they have long been beaten not dare to approach him, but these zombies are not afraid of death, attack and fierce, ferocious and difficult to deal with.   "Da da da da ......" The entrance suddenly rang out sharp gunfire, automatic rifles in the hands of a small, thin man spitting tongues of fire, bullets shot wildly toward the zombies pouncing on the Taoist master to relieve the siege.   A number of continuous shooting, the skinny man found that the bullet hit the target role is not very big, but attracted some zombies towards their own pouncing. He dealt with these things obviously also some experience, bullet point quickly adjusted, hit the zombie's head and knee joints.   Rushing zombies either lost the ability to run and flopped on the ground to crawl here, or were shot in the head, hit the brain burst out on the ground.   Under the tongue of the gun spit, shining with the skinny man's cold and expressionless face, extremely calm and cool.   Seeing the zombie bravely rushed to, he did not retreat instead of advancing, greeted, with a very fast action in the hand quickly changed a magazine, the gun bolt quickly pulled, the gun stopped and coherent ringing. Not slow and unhurried forward, change one-handed end of the automatic rifle, the other hand pulled out the waist pistol, the gun body to the belt on a rub, the bullet click loaded, do not even look at it, hand in hand according to the broken knee fast crawling to the front of the zombies on the head is "pop" two shots, direct headshots.   Pistol sometimes back to the hand "pop" back to open a few shots, will be from the back of the zombie pounced on the head to burst.   Automatic rifles and pistols in his hands freely one-handed replacement of magazines, the use of firearms and weapons is not generally skillful, those zombies simply can not get close to his body have fallen.   When the master dodged a sword in front of the last zombie chopped off the head, the thin man in the hands of automatic rifle also "da da" two sound knocked over the last zombie pounced. Master Taoist toes picked up the staff, the sky rolled down, and then returned to the sheath of the sword, turned back to the cane to pestle the ground, the action is clean, raised his hand to run down the back of the head of the flung messy.   The underground palace is filled with an odd fishy odor.   Skinny man around the Taoist master around a circle, encountered by the waist is not dead through or chopped off the legs of the zombies are still fluttering, automatic rifle barrels to meet the head of the fire out of the "da da" two bursts of sound, or pistol to meet up with the "popping" two sound.   To wait for all the zombies in the palace did not move, thin man alert to the surrounding area, quickly replaced the magazine, pistol by hand back to the waist, automatic rifle also hung on the shoulder, from the back to pull out a tube pull open, "snorting" lighting fireworks out, with burning smoke thrown out by hand, threw a few times to the surrounding area, the general outline of the palace in the fireworks Illumination probably showed up, ring-shaped dome, a zombie corpse on the ground.   The thin man walked to the side of the man who organized his clothes, indifferently said, "Master Dao, outside the followers of the dots are solved, the entrance has the brothers to guard, the sealing of the falling rocks also blew up, can be withdrawn at any time."   Master Dao hmmm, flashlight light on the ground zombie corpses survey, cane also rattled to look through the next.   Skinny man looked around the corpses, roughly calculated, estimated that at least over a hundred, more or less strange: "Where so many zombies?"   "Ghosts know, the previous errand time even if there is encountered, but also sporadic one or two, so much is really ...... this place is a bit interesting, did not come for nothing!" Master Dao laughed, strong flashlight again irradiated around, fixed on a nearly ten-meter high Guanyin sitting statue, close to the wall sitting, great mercy model.   The entire setup within the palace is empty, so an abrupt Guanyin sitting statue in that, want not to pay attention to it is difficult.   Flashlight fixed in the Guanyin statue's neck, found Guanyin neck hanging a pendant. The entire Guanyin statue is a one-piece carved stone statue, that pendant is obviously another with wear on, for the time being, I'm afraid that is the entire integrated construction of the palace is also the only one moving objects.   The master carefully walked over, suffered a loss, know that this tomb is unusual odd, cane all the way to knock on the ground, as if the blind man to explore like, in fact, is to listen to the ground echo is abnormal, to avoid stepping in the mechanism.   Came to the Guanyin sitting statue, head high to watch a little, cane again knocking sitting statue, listen to the sound, inhaled a breath, suddenly lifted the air vertical body gently leaped, landed in the sitting statue of the legs, and then gently leaped, quickly climbed to the sitting statue of the shoulders, squatting that pulling the chain on the neck of the Guanyin to look at it and found that it is a metal chain, that will be torn up the pendant, blow off the ash, flashlight light to see, and found that it is actually a palm-sized ancient copper mirror. The ancient copper mirror.   This copper mirror style he has not seen, but different from that pendant chain, the pendant chain has been rusted can not, copper mirror is antique not see any rust spots.   This place is not a slow study of the place, want to take off the mirror to take away, but found that the chain is attached with the statue of a one-piece, see the chain is also rusted almost, it is estimated to be strong not to where, put aside the hand on the thing, grabbed the chain to spit out the force, snapped, directly to the chain to be torn, but found that the chain pulled out a golden thread, seems to be tugging on the statue of the inside of the neck of what things.
