Guanzhong Tomb Robbery Notes

Chapter 17 The girl is crying, who is she?

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Tuoye's voice suddenly became light and low.

It seems to be imitating the noise heard by tomb robbers.

The change in his voice made me even more nervous.

I even felt that the cool breeze blowing past my ears carried the sobbing sound of a young girl.

My hair stood on end and I got goose bumps.

"The sobbing sound penetrated from their ears to their hearts, and the tomb robbers felt that something was wrong."

"But a thief never leaves empty-handed. After all the trouble to find a tomb, he must take away some valuables."

"They entered the tomb, and the leading tomb robber prepared to light a candle in the corner of the tomb, as per the rules."

"But before the candles were even brought out, they froze!"

"The tomb chamber contained scenes they had never seen before, even after decades of tomb robbing!"

"The outer circle is densely packed with wooden boxes, and the middle circle is filled with nearly a hundred wooden boxes, surrounding the innermost coffin chamber."

"The wooden boxes and chests excited them, thinking they contained a large number of burial objects!"

"But what happened next made them regret it!"

"There were sobbing sounds coming from those wooden boxes!"

"It seems like countless girls are crying for help!"

"The crying sound rushed into my head, shaking my brain and making it dizzy and painful. The mental state of the tomb robbers was greatly shocked."

"Several tomb robbers knelt down with their heads in their hands, sobbing and saying things like 'Save me!' and 'I don't want to die.'"

"The scariest thing is, the voices coming out of their throats are female!"

"It's the voice of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl!"

"Wuwuwu, save me, save me, I don't want to die, I don't want to die!"

The camel suddenly imitated the girl's cry for help.

The voice was so lifelike, it really sounded like a girl crying for help.

Bang!

I was so shocked that I lost my balance and fell off the bench.

Uncle Tuo still looked focused, imitating a girl's voice to call for help, as if he didn't notice that I was scared and fell off the bench.

I held onto the bench and prepared to stand up, but was frightened by Camel Uncle's expression.

His eyeballs bulged out.

The eyeball seemed to be trying to break free from the eye socket and was about to pop out of the eye socket.

Heavy breathing sounds came out from his nostrils that kept flaring.

The nails left deep marks on the elm tabletop.

That’s a solid elm table!

Even though his nails were bleeding, he still kept scratching them with all his strength.

It looks like he's been possessed by a demon!

"Uncle Camel!" I shouted.

Not only did Tuoye not stop, but his facial features were distorted and he made the sound of a girl crying.

The distorted and terrifying face formed a huge contrast with the girl's voice, which made my scalp explode.

"Woo woo woo! Help me, help me!"

The crying changed from soft and sad to sharp and violent.

Tuoye's already distorted face became even more distorted.

His eyebrows were raised so high that they were about to be tangled together.

His eyes widened until they exploded at the corners, and blood rolled down like tears.

Most of his eyeballs protruded from his eye sockets, as if they would fall out at any time.

The nostrils wrinkled upward like two black holes.

His mouth was opened so wide that it looked like his jaw was about to dislocate, and his throat was clearly trembling.

I was really panicked at that moment.

My heart, which originally did not believe in the existence of demons and monsters, was shaken.

"Uncle Camel, wake up!"

My shouting had no effect at all.

The sound coming out of Tuoye's mouth became sharper.

Words like "save me" became inaudible.

Only a sharp humming sound penetrated my head.

It was so shocking that my brain felt like it was going to explode.

In an emergency, I don't care about respecting the elderly and loving the young.

He picked up the rag on the table and stuffed it into Tuoye's open mouth, trying to block the sharp sound coming out of his mouth.

But stuffing the rag in there didn't help at all.

It seemed as if the sound did not come from Tuoye’s throat.

I was completely panicked.

What should I do?

I don't even know who to ask for help.

I’m even more afraid that if Tuoye continues like this, he will die suddenly.

Just when I was at a loss, the story of Fan Jin passing the imperial examination flashed through my mind.

After passing the imperial examination, Fan Jin became insane due to phlegm and was later awakened by a slap from a butcher.

Now Tuo Ye looks a bit like Fan Jin.

But I'm not a butcher, so I don't know if a slap will work.

By the way, there is a butcher’s knife on the table!

I rushed to the counter and held the butcher knife that had slaughtered countless pigs in my left hand.

It is said that this kind of knife, which has touched countless lives, carries evil spirit and is most effective in suppressing strange things.

"Master Tuo, I'm sorry."

I held the butcher knife tightly in front of me.

Camel Grandpa's bulging eyes suddenly glared at the butcher knife.

The girl's crying sound coming out of her mouth became sharper and louder.

He jumped up as if on a spring, and with his fingers curled up, he grabbed my arm that was holding the butcher knife.

I was startled by his action.

His blood boiled and he swung the butcher knife as if it were a racket.

Snapped!

The blade hit Tuo Ye's cheek directly.

Knocked the skinny camel to the ground.

The hands that were originally reaching for my arms suddenly grabbed the table legs.

Deep scratches were left on the hard elm table legs.

The fingernails of Tuoye's hands turned up as he grabbed it, and blood dripped from his fingertips.

I was scared after watching it.

If you were to grab my arm, my skin would be torn and blood would flow.

"Ow!"

"Ten, ten!"

Because a rag was stuffed into his mouth, Tuoye let out indistinct screams.

I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw that he stopped crying sharply and his expression was no longer ferocious.

He walked over carefully and stretched out his arm to take the rag out of his mouth.

He said with lingering fear: "Uncle Tuo, you scared me to death just now. What's the point of singing that?"

"hiss!"

Grandpa Tuo gasped in pain and looked down at his hands with his fingernails turned up.

"What happened to my hand?"

"My throat is hoarse and my eyes, nose and face hurt."

I looked at him carefully.

The pain was mixed with a look of confusion, which didn't seem to be fake.

Did he forget what happened just now?

"You really don't remember?"

"Just now you told me a story about tomb robbers. A group of tomb robbers entered the tomb of the King of Bi State and heard a woman crying. Then something was wrong with you..."

I told him what had just happened.

After listening to this, Tuo Ye was silent for a long time.

He picked up the pipe with trembling hands and took several deep puffs.

Then he said in a hoarse voice: "She's here again!"

"who is she?"

I asked eagerly.

Wondering what the hell she is.

But Grandpa Tuo fell silent again.

I was worried that Tuoye was emotionally unstable and might provoke that evil thing again, so I didn't ask any further questions.

"Your hand needs to be bandaged, and there's blood coming out of the corner of your eye."

"Do you have any medicine or gauze at home? If not, I'll go find the village doctor."

Uncle Tuo stood up silently and walked into the inner room.

After a while, the corners of my eyes and fingers were covered with light brown medicine powder.

As if afraid that I would worry, Grandpa Tuo smiled and said, "It's just a minor injury, nothing serious."

"Did I scare you just now?"

"It's okay." I said stubbornly.

I was really scared by the appearance of Tuoye just now.

It even made me back off.

The tombs of kings and princes, and the tombs of monarchs, are not as important as your own life.

It's not worth risking your life for tomb robbing.

What's more, selling the gold and jade artifacts would be enough to pay for my grandfather's medical treatment or to go to Northwestern University as an auditor.

Just as I was about to say goodbye and pretend I had never been there tonight, I heard a series of banging sounds on the door.

"Open the door, you hunchback!"
