Chapter 30: Inference

Everyone held their breath in shock, and the whole space was instantly silent, like a cold morgue. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

It reminds me of a fairy tale I heard when I was a child, about a child who got lost and found a wooden house in the dark and misty forest, and the wooden house opened a crack in the door, and there was a faint light in the fire. He imagined that there was a kind old woman living inside, but when he entered, what awaited him was a strange ugly and evil old witch. I was clever at this thought, and I couldn't help but feel a chill down my spine.

After standing for a long time, we relieved ourselves, stood up straight, and the treasure trembled in this darkness: "Tai...... It's horrible, this ...... This bronze wall ...... itself Crack a ...... on your own A mouth...... Isn't it a ghost...... "Just as he spoke, I heard a strange wheezing sound, coming from a cramped place, but then vanished again, and just as I wondered if I had heard it wrong, my sensitive nerves beat and I heard a very dull sound like a thump on the ground.

I was puzzled, and hurriedly made a silent gesture, and said to Baocai: "Don't speak, there is movement......"

When Bao Cai heard this, he glared and covered his mouth, like a comedian, if it weren't for such a nervous situation, I really wanted to tell Bao Cai: You have such a rich expression, you should change careers to become a comedian.

However, as we pricked up our ears to listen without moving, the space returned to an abrasive silence.

Chen Yu frowned and asked me in colloquial language, "What's the situation?" His reaction made me think that the movement just now might just be my hallucination.

I sighed and asked, "I said, didn't you hear any strange sounds just now?"

"Voice, what sound?" said Baocai, confused.

I looked at him with a frightened look, shook my head, and said with a wry smile, "No...... Maybe I've been too nervous lately...... "In fact, this kind of nervous sensitivity is not good, and it makes me feel that I am not in danger enough, and I always make a fuss."

Alas...... I sighed deeply in my heart, after a little adjustment, I regained my composure, thinking that I was going to open the door in front of me just now, but I didn't expect the bronze wall on the west side to open inexplicably at this time, this situation is too puzzling, the first thing I didn't expect is that this bronze wall with no gaps and high precision is actually a door, and according to my original calculation of the "five spirits" mechanism, there should be no mistakes.

Facing the glimmer of fire revealed by the bronze wall, I controlled my breathing and approached the bronze wall of the white tiger position.

As I moved forward, the witch reminded me, "Eternal light is a slight fire, and extinguishing is death...... I advise you not to go in......" With the reverberating space, she kept her voice low, but even so, in this kind of square bronze antechamber, no matter how small her voice was, would be infinitely amplified.

I stopped, her eyes shining with a slight fire, her facial features deep and misty at this time, she was preoccupied all the way, her brows slightly locked, as if she knew what was about to happen.

Lao Yu was the least believer among us, and after listening to the words of the Miao witch, he disdainfully "cut" it, then took out the machete on his body, and said: "Don't listen to her! The ancient tomb is already in danger, if it is really as she said, 'the lights go out and die', then we should die now! Let's go in and see for ourselves, and see what is inside, it's better than not knowing what is going on like now!" Before we could answer, Lao Yu took the lead in getting down and cautiously moved to the bronze wall, and just as he stretched out his hand to open the bronze wall, the little Taoist priest shouted urgently: "Wait!"

On weekdays, Lao Yu is a bold person, but in this weird atmosphere and space, his spirit is also highly concentrated, which is not inexplicably startled, his machete instantly landed, making a deafening echo. The sound was very harsh in the front room with a good pitching effect, and it made my heart tingle, as if I had been exposed to the most obvious position in this strange place, without a trace of security.

After taking a moment to control the frightened heartbeat, Lao Yu returned to his soul and asked the little Taoist what was wrong, and the little Taoist said: "We were originally going to open the bronze door of the Xuanwu position, but now this west gate has opened unexpectedly, there must be something wrong inside." The little Taoist priest said, looking at me.

I was in agreement with his, so I nodded, he pondered for a moment, and continued: "Just now I thought that there were other outsiders here besides us, but if you think about it carefully, this person is familiar with the ancient tomb, and it should not be someone who has just come in to dig the ruins. ”

"This ...... How do you know for sure?" said Lao Yu, who felt a rare sense of tension.

The little Taoist priest looked at us and said, "Because Brother Feng found that there was new soil in the sacrificial vessel, I checked the broken soil on the Yellow Dragon Mechanism, and it was not placed for a long time, and the most important thing is that I heard the wheezing sound except for us just now, based on these, I speculate that there are long-term residents here, that is, tomb keepers!"

Hearing the little Taoist priest talking about the wheezing sound, my scalp exploded, and I hurriedly said, "It turns out that what I heard just now was not an illusion!"

The little Taoist priest nodded, and I said with a hint of complaint: "Then why didn't you say it just now?"

"I don't want to startle the snake, I don't want to cause panic, and I've been thinking about this issue since I heard the voice......" The little Taoist priest said lightly, looked around, and said with a hint of vigilance: "In addition, that living person may be hiding somewhere and quietly spying on us now......

When he said this, I was furious, and Baocai gasped and said, "That half-immortal means, this ...... This door was opened by a man?"

The little Taoist priest didn't answer, but his heavy expression said it all.

I frowned secretly, looking at the appearance of the little Taoist, and suddenly felt that the ancients were young, but they all made themselves very deep, just like my ancestors. At this time, he was only in his early twenties, but he held the position of the highest head of the Inverted Dou Sect, which made me sigh to myself.

Besides, having said that, in this case, we have extrapolated the opening of the bronze wall on the west side to man, and that is not such a simple matter as my misjudgment.

We still have to be prepared to deal with the dead, but it is really not at all pleasing to deal with the living who live here for a long time, because they are in the dark, and we are in the light, and if they have evil hearts, and if one of them does the slightest harm, we don't know how to die.

A few of us reorganized the matter of the cracking of the bronze wall, and finally came to the conclusion that the tomb keeper stored in the ancient tomb probably did not want us to enter the main coffin, so he opened the door of the white tiger position, but it is unknown what is inside the door and whether it is dangerous. And through the reminder that the shrine maiden just reminded us, it shows that she knows a lot, but she can't explain everything to us clearly, so she can only advise us.

After this analysis, I suddenly felt that the scene behind the gap was terrifying, and the faint light of the fire seemed to carry a hint of conspiracy.

Does that person really exist?

Is his purpose as simple as diverting our goals?

What's behind the bronze wall?

This thought, I have a great headache, recalling the picture of the shrine maiden statue holding a scythe, my heart is indescribably uneasy, that feeling is in modern times, Xue Wei and Baocai in front of the stone gate, I feel the tension and fear, that seems to foreshadow the death I will face next, and the first death between us may be the curious Chen Li......

I glanced up at the cold and ghostly bronze witch elephant, and the adventurous spirit in the bones of my male compatriots burned in my blood. I bit my lip, and the mood at this time was like a girl watching a horror movie, obviously scared to death, but still couldn't help but want to feel the most exciting shot.

"Going to meet that living person?" I looked at the gap, I didn't expect this sentence to pop out of my mouth, I smiled bitterly in my heart, maybe this is because in the danger again and again, my mind has been honed out of the cocoon, and now in the face of fear, although I am afraid, I will not always think about hiding, and I have to rely on my teammates.

"I could have gone in a long time ago!" I said, "If I stand so indecisively, my heart will burn in a hurry!"

I turned my face sideways, turned to look at the little Taoist priest, he and we had a heart-to-heart, nodded and said, "Okay, it's easy to dodge open guns and difficult to defend against dark arrows, yes!"

At this point, the three of us looked at each other and smiled, as if there was a tacit understanding.

At this time, only Bao Cai was cringe, he glanced at us, and said: "It's obvious that there is a problem inside, why do you have to go in hard, isn't that death?"

Chen Yu sneered and said: "Coward, you haven't watched that horror movie, there really must be a living person in this ancient tomb, he is allowed to pick a single person, let's all go in, you have to pestle here, don't wait for anything to happen, don't let grandpa save you when the time comes!"

Hearing this, Baocai was obviously panicked, and he suddenly jumped behind Chen Yu, and said with a smile: "Enter ...... Get in...... Let's unite ...... strength."

Looking at his flattering face, I couldn't cry or laugh, but when my eyes were on the Miao witch, her expression was extremely anxious.

"What's wrong?" I asked her.

She groaned for a long time, and said to me with a pair of beautiful eyes: "Don't go in......" This tone is sad, as if there is a feeling of retaining a lover.

"Do you know anything?" asked the little priest.

She shook her head and repeated with a sad face, "Don't go in, you'll die...... I'm going to die!" she said in a soft voice, as if she had just said it to us.

"Have you been here?" Chen Yu was annoyed, the witch didn't answer, she suddenly walked to the bronze door, blocked the gap with her body and said: "Feng Gongzi, you have saved me a few times, believe me, I will not harm you, this tomb is not as simple as you think, I advise you to go......"

"Why isn't it easy?" Chen Yu asked.

The witch changed her usual cold arrogance and said, "I can't help myself with many things, and there are only so many ...... I can tell you."

She said it very sincerely, and when she said the words "involuntarily", her tone was choked, very bitter, and there was a feeling that she couldn't say it and couldn't explain it. Faced with this situation, I realized that as the descendant of this ancient tomb, the shrine maiden's words of persuasion were all she could say, and if she said too much here, I am afraid that people like her who believed in ancestors would definitely feel that they had blasphemed the spirits of the ancestors.

I am grateful that she was able to say this, whether it was to get us out of her ancestors' graves or for the real purpose of saving us, because in her repeated help, I found that this girl was not cold-blooded to a certain extent, and that she was probably just wearing a mask to disguise herself.

However, we had made up our minds, and there was no choice but to retreat, when we told the shrine maiden that we wanted to go in. Her face froze, and she looked at us in disbelief, but then she seemed to accept the fact and silently retreated, which was pitiful.

At that moment, I couldn't help but grab her hand, like a big brother grabbing his sister, her hand was wrapped by me, her shoulders shrunk, her body was completely frozen, I grabbed her tightly, and said with a slight smile: "Hey, girl, you are scheming, if you know the mechanism inside and trap us inside, it's not good, you follow me!"

The witch was stunned for a moment when she heard me say this, and then looked at me tightly with those big eyes, silent, but there was nothing she could say.

At this moment, I felt confused for a while, because the Miao witch stared at me with a little gentleness, which was completely different from the cold appearance on weekdays.

I smiled at her awkwardly, but unfortunately, this girl's hands were not as smooth as ordinary girls' hands, and she had a lot of thick calluses on her hands, and I think she had suffered a lot. I grabbed her, and when I turned around, she was looking at me, and there was a hint of shyness on her face that only a little girl would have.

Seeing this, I immediately turned around and thought bitterly: Damn, you won't really like me, right? I don't want to owe a love debt in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, but I can't pay it back if I want to!
