Volume 3 Chapter 7 The Secret Path
Volume 3, Chapter 7, The Secret Path
Ye Hai took the lead and walked in the front, Chen Zhan Hu Gang followed, Hua An followed behind, and when the four of them walked out of less than a meter in this different tomb passage from before, Chen Zhan suddenly felt that the green bricks under his feet were sinking, Chen Zhan said badly, knowing that he had stepped on the mechanism, he hurriedly shouted "Retreat!"
As soon as Chen Zhan's words came out, the four of them heard a sound of opportunity in the tomb, Hu Gang immediately grabbed Hua An, who had not yet reacted, and stepped back at once, making room for Ye Hai and Chen Zhan in front of him to retreat, seeing that Hu Gang and Hua An had made room for the back, Chen Zhan wanted to retreat, when suddenly a dry and dark arm stretched out from the side, and the sharp claws on the arm grabbed Chen Zhan's arm.

"Oops!" The arm that suddenly appeared was in front of Chen Zhan in an instant, Chen Zhan knew that it was too late to dodge, at this time a white palm had been pressed on Chen Zhan's chest, Chen Zhan immediately felt a great force coming out of the palm of his chest, and in an instant Chen Zhan was suddenly knocked out of the tomb, fortunately Chen Zhan was carrying a backpack, and when he fell to the ground, the backpack landed first, so that Chen Zhan was not injured.
It turned out that the white palm belonged to Ye Hai, Ye Hai was alert to the imminent danger around him when Chen Zhan just shouted, and when Hu Gang withdrew from this tomb with Hua An and made room for the two of them, Ye Hai found that the evil ghost on the wall next to Chen Zhan actually moved all of a sudden, the ghost's dry and dark arm actually stretched out of the wall, and the sharp claws on the arm grabbed Chen Zhan, and Ye Hai instantly shot Chen Zhan out of the tomb.
When Ye Hai knocked Chen Zhan out of the tomb, the evil ghosts carved on the wall beside Ye Hai also moved, stretched out his arms and grabbed Ye Hai, and the evil ghosts carved on the walls on both sides of the place where the four of them walked stretched out their arms from the wall one by one, Ye Hai's body shook and dodged the claws of the evil ghost, and at this time, the hideous and terrifying head of the evil ghost also stretched out from the wall.
The demon's head opened with a big black hole mouth, revealing a mouth full of fangs, and bit towards Ye Hai's face. If it were an ordinary person, he would have been stunned when he saw this strange situation, but Ye Hai still remained calm in this situation, the way back had been blocked, Ye Hai avoided the bite of the evil ghost with a short body, and the evil ghost on the wall on the other side suddenly stretched out his foot, and kicked towards Ye Hai with one foot.
Ye Hai raised his eyebrows and rolled forward, and when he was about to get up, the heads and hands and feet of the evil ghosts instantly stretched out from the walls on both sides, Ye Hai's reaction was extremely fast, he jumped forward, and instantly dodged the attack of the two evil ghosts, and then he heard a "bang" behind him, and the heads of the evil ghosts sticking out of the two walls collided together and shattered.
"Damn, Brother Ye is in danger!" Hu Gang, who was outside the tomb, looked at Ye Hai who was dodging the attack of the evil ghosts, and was anxious, thinking that if he was there just now, his head would be smashed like those two evil ghosts, Hu Gang was about to go to help, but he was stopped by Chen Zhan, "Don't go, you still can't believe Brother Ye's skills, you will only distract Brother Ye in the past now!"
"Hey!" Hu Gang understood what Chen Zhan meant, and looked at Ye Hai, who was dodging the attack of evil ghosts in the tomb road, and could only be anxious.
Ye Hai didn't have time to think about this, but paid attention to the movements around him, dodged the attack of the two evil ghosts, and before he could stand firmly, the evil ghosts in the two walls beside him stretched out their hideous heads and thin claws just like just now, Ye Hai lowered his head, dodged the attack of the evil ghost's head, and then immediately turned sideways and drilled through the gap between the demon's hands and feet.
The evil ghosts in the wall appeared one after another, Ye Hai reacted one after another to avoid the outstretched head and hands and feet, and finally Ye Hai finally passed through the tomb carved with evil ghosts without danger in the eyes of Chen Zhan and the three of them, after Ye Hai passed the tomb road, the ghost carvings on the walls on both sides of the tomb road slowly retracted into it, and then this tomb began to vibrate, and I saw that the tomb carved with evil ghosts gradually began to move closer to the middle.
"Oh no, this is to block the tomb road, let's get over there!" Hua An hurriedly shouted.
Chen Zhan and the three of them didn't care about the attack of the evil ghost carving when they passed through the tomb, and hurriedly ran forward, Chen Zhan found that when the three of them ran into the tomb now, the evil ghost carvings on the walls on both sides did not move and did not come out to attack the three of them.
"Quick! Run faster!" Seeing that the walls on both sides were getting closer and closer, Chen Zhan hurriedly shouted, and finally when the walls on both sides became the width of only one person, Chen Zhan and the three of them finally passed through this tomb road.
"Obviously, I didn't use the compass to find a mechanism before, how could this be!" Hu Gang was very angry at the moment, blaming himself for not discovering the mechanism.
Hua An explained: "Brother Hu, this should be the inkstone mechanism, and the inkstone used to drive the mechanism, so you used the compass to find that there was a mechanism!" When I used the clay pot as a pathfinder stone and threw it into the tomb, nothing happened, and it did not touch the mechanism, but after walking a few steps in the tomb, I stepped on the machine, and the ancients had already taken into account the habit of tomb robbers to throw stones to ask for directions when they designed this kind of mechanism, so this mechanism will only be activated when something greater than or equal to the weight of the human body passes through the tomb. ”
Hua An paused and continued: "The evil ghosts on the walls on both sides of the tomb are not carved at all, but hide the stone statues and machine brackets in the wall, as long as someone triggers the mechanism, the machine bracket in the wall will pull the stone statue, and the heads, hands and feet of those evil ghosts will stick out of the wall and attack the tomb robbers who trigger the mechanism."
Chen Zhan nodded, then frowned and said: "I didn't expect that there would be such a sophisticated design of the mechanism, we underestimated the wisdom of the ancients, and today we almost fell into the way of the designer of the mechanism." Now that this tomb road is blocked, there is no way back, and after exploring the ancient tomb, we have to find another way!"
Hua An didn't panic, and said: "Brother Chen, you don't have to worry about getting out of the ancient tomb, if you really can't find another way, we will fight back to steal the hole, this kind of thing I have done with Master and Master before."
After the thrilling scene just now, the four people now dare not underestimate the danger here, cheer up and continue to move forward cautiously, the tomb road is over, leading to a tomb, the door of the tomb is closed, the four people bring an oxygen mask, open the door of the tomb, a musty smell paves the surface, fortunately with an oxygen mask, otherwise inhaling this gas must be poisoned, because the air in the ancient tomb is not circulating, naturally for a long time the air will produce toxic substances.
The four of them walked into the tomb and asked the four of them to observe this burial chamber, this burial chamber seems to be a study, there are a large number of books piled up on the four walls, and there is a platform in the center of the tomb, on which a stone table is placed, but now the four of them are also not interested in these books, because they found a very strange problem, this tomb has only one entrance, just where he stands, together with the tomb road just now, and the walls of the other three directions of the tomb are all full of books, There was no other exit at all, and the road was cut off here.
The tomb road has been blocked, and now the four of them are trapped in a space, "How is it a dead end, what should I do now?" Hu Gang said with a frown.
"Don't worry, no matter how strange and weird the structure in the ancient tomb is, it is also used to bury people, so all tombs should have passages to other tombs, and there is only one tomb passage when we come to this tomb, so there must be something strange about this arrangement." Ye Hai carefully looked at the situation in the tomb and said.
Hua An reconsidered: "Brother Ye is right, it's not that there are no other exits in this tomb, but that eighty percent of the exits are hidden, and we may be able to find the exit if we look carefully in the tomb."
The four of them each walked to the wall where a large number of books were stacked to check, because this was the most likely place to hide the exit of the tomb, Chen Zhan began to move the bamboo slips and books stacked against the wall of the tomb, and after ten minutes, he finally cleared one of the walls of the tomb.
The bamboo slips and books stacked on the other two walls were moved away by Hu Gang and the three of them, but in addition to the entire tomb that was connected to the tomb road that they had just entered, the entire tomb was bare on all sides and the walls made of blue-gray tomb bricks were presented in front of the eyes of the four people, but there was still no trace of the second hole, and the four of them also knocked on the wall of the tomb and found that they were all solid, and there was no hidden passage.
"How could it not be?" Without finding an exit, Huaan was a little anxious.
Chen Zhan also felt strange in his heart, the place where the exit could be hidden had been searched, how could there be none, at this time Chen Zhan saw the stone table in the center of the tomb, his mind flashed, he walked to the stone table and looked at it, and said: "Let's move this stone table away and see if the exit will be hidden here!"
Hearing Chen Zhan's words, the three of them were overjoyed, because there was only a stone table left here, maybe the exit was really hidden here, the four of them moved the stone table from the underground stone platform reasonably, Ye Hai knocked on the stone platform with the handle of the bronze short sword in his hand, and heard "Dong Dong Dong!" The sound came.
Ye Hai said: "The underground is empty, and the exit is here!"
Now that we know that the exit is here, all we need to do now is push the stone platform open, "I'll come!" Hu Gang handed the compass in his hand to Chen Zhan, squatted down, and pushed the stone platform to the side with both hands, and the stone platform slowly moved, revealing a trace of black hole from below.
Seeing the exit, Hua An also helped push the stone platform together, and after a while, a square hole in a black hole appeared in the center of the tomb.
Chen Zhan used the miner's lamp on his head to shine down, and found that there was a stone staircase leading to the bottom, it was a dark passage, or Ye Hai's first formation, the first to go down first, carefully walked down the steps, Chen Zhan and the three of them also followed, and walked for a while and found that the steps and the secret passage did not hide the mechanism.
