Volume 4 The Stormy Waves Chapter 325 The Strange Tomb

Poplar's thoughts raced.

After all, this is underwater, and there is no time for him to ponder slowly.

But those two eyeballs seemed exactly the same as they were swarthy to him, and there was nothing else surprising about them around these two huge eyes.

What to do?

Should he take a risk and just choose one or the other?

However, his instincts, which had always been very accurate, were in a mess at this moment, making him feel that he should press the left eyeball for a while, and then he felt that he should press the right eyeball.

So much so that he stretched out his hand again and again, but retracted it again and again.

Just as he was about to give up and swim back before Tie Niu couldn't hold on, Tie Niu suddenly reached out and tugged at his arm.

Poplar turned his head to look at Tie Niu, but saw Tie Niu pointing to the eye on his left, and his face showed a look of horror.

Poplar immediately understood that Iron Bull saw the kind of flash that would cause panic again.

But why couldn't he see the flash?

He has been carefully watching the old man for a long time, is it because his mind is changing sharply, so the "mind confusion technique" is ineffective for him?

Or was it the jade pendant he was wearing that kept him awake?

Poplar could not make an accurate judgment and with the current scenario, there was no time for him to think it carefully.

Poplar immediately stretched out his hand and pointed to the right eye, but both eyes looked at the Iron Bull.

Iron Bull immediately understood what he meant, so Iron Bull quickly shook his head.

Poplar didn't know whether he was surprised or delighted, because since Iron Bull could only see a flash of light in one eye, it showed that these two eyes were indeed two trap valves as he had speculated before.

But the question is, do the eyes with sparkle represent life, or the eyes without sparkle represent life?

If you speculate according to common sense, it should be the eyes that have no flash, because that kind of flash will make people feel a very strong sense of panic.

So if there was only one Iron Bull now, he would definitely not hesitate to press the eye that didn't flash.

But, is it really that simple?

How could the tomb builder be so kind and deliberately remind the inverted people not to press the eyes that will only make people panic?

- Poplar reached out and pressed the eye on the left that seemed to Iron Bull to have a glitter.

Tie Niu had also seen that these two eyes must be the location of the mechanism, but he never expected that Poplar would actually press the eye with a flash on the left.

Frightened, Iron Bull instinctively reached out and tried to grab Poplar's arm.

But it was already late, and he felt a strong current of water, pushing him and Poplar upwards, only to hear a "bang", and the two of them fell on the dry ground-

In fact, it can't be said that it is dry ground, because the water washed the two of them out, and the ground was naturally wet and full of water stains.

Looking back, the ground was flat, and it was no longer obvious that they had been washed out of that place.

"Let's ...... It's actually coming out?" Iron Bull muttered, a little incredulous.

Bai Yang secretly said in his heart that he was lucky, but fortunately he didn't press the right eyeball, otherwise he didn't know what would happen at the moment.

Moreover, both of them still had javelins in their hands, and when they were rushed out, the javelins were not stuck in the narrow passage.

Poplar stood up, took a closer look around them, and soon saw that they were in a boxy burial chamber.

The area of the burial chamber is not large, only about thirty square meters.

And in the middle of the burial chamber, there is a black stone—

It cannot be said to be a coffin, because it is not the shape of a coffin at all, and at first glance it looks like a huge stone that has been cut into a box.

But if you look closely, you will find that there is a thin line on the upper part of the stone, which is about two inches thick.

In other words, this square black stone is likely to be a huge stone box.

"Why is there a stone box here, could it be that this stone box is full of antique treasures for burial?" said Tie Niu.

"It makes sense to assume that the antique treasure should be placed in the core chamber with the body of the tomb owner, but this thing is not like a coffin, but like a stone chest!" said Poplar.

"Then what will be in this stone box, do you want to open it and take a look?" Tie Niu asked, but without waiting for Bai Yang to answer, he suddenly called out again, "No! We don't think it's like a coffin, that's because we are Chinese, but Redbeard is not Chinese, maybe according to the customs of their country, the coffin is so boxy?"

Poplar made sense when he heard it, but he shook his head when he looked around.

"According to you, if this is Redbeard's coffin, then this room must be the core burial chamber! But this room is too narrow, isn't it? And there is nothing but this black box, it is impossible for Redbeard to pile all the burial goods on his own body, right?"

Tie Niu opened his mouth, but it was difficult to refute, and said, "Then do we want to open this black box and take a look?"

"If I don't open it, who knows if there's something strange hidden inside!" said Poplar.

"Then I'll listen to you, if you don't open it, don't open it!" said Tie Niu.

Poplar nodded, and then ignored the black box, but looked around the tomb.

The chamber was surrounded by walls made of black stone, and there were no openings in the walls, and even the flooded passage that had washed them out before was invisible.

The top of the tomb is made of large stone slabs of black stone, with a height of up to two meters, and the height of the poplar iron ox is more than one meter eight, so it is inevitable that there is a feeling of depression in this tomb.

The two of them searched for a mechanism in the tomb to get out of the tomb, and after searching for all four walls, Poplar was sure that there should be a mechanism on one of the walls.

So he groped around that wall for a long time, and could not help but be discouraged to be sure that this mechanism could only be opened from the other side of the wall.

In other words, the mechanism also came into this burial chamber, just like the flooded passage that had washed them into this burial chamber before.

"Could it be that this burial chamber is really the core burial chamber, so there are several passages leading here, but there is no further passage?" said Tie Niu.

"I still think it's unlikely!" replied Poplar, his eyes on the huge blackstone box, "I think it's more likely, it's the passage out, hidden in this blackstone box!"

"Then let's open this stone box and take a look!" Tie Niu said, waving the long javelin in his hand, "Anyway, we still have a javelin in our hands, no matter what strange thing it is, our brothers join forces, and we are not afraid that we will not be able to fight it!"

Seeing that he was ambitious, Poplar nodded and smiled, and first approached the boxy stone box, leaned his javelin against the stone box, and then the two brothers pressed the lid of the stone box and tried to push it hard.

With the strength of his brothers, this push had a thousand catties of force, but the stone box did not move at all, as if it was originally a whole big stone, and this big stone was still firmly fixed to the ground.

However, this situation is not special, so the two brothers pushed it in another direction.

Fortunately, with a soft sound of "whoop", from the fine lines more than two inches thick, a flat stone cover was pushed aside.

The two of them first smelled a strange smell, looked down and looked in, and couldn't help but cry out "ah" at the same time.

"Oh my God, this and this...... What the hell is it?" exclaimed Iron Bull.

The whole stone chest was full of liquid, and the liquid didn't look like water.

Soaked in liquid, there is a corpse -

No, at least two or three corpses that looked like people.

The reason why it looks like a human corpse is because the one that floats on top obviously has a head and limbs.

However, both the head and the limbs are covered with green fur.

And the fur was at least two to three inches long, and the fur covered the face and skin of the corpse, and it didn't look like a human, but like an ape orangutan, an animal that was closer to a human form.

"What the hell is this, old white? It seems...... It's disgusting!" Iron Bull asked.

He was so disgusted that he had to look up and stop looking into the stone box.

Poplar didn't know what it was, but whatever it was, it must have been dead for nearly a thousand years.

So Poplar endured his nausea, picked up the javelin and wanted to reach into the stone box, and look at the green fur, but at this time, a "squeak" sound came into the ears of two people.

The two of them turned around, and saw that a doorway was slowly revealing on the wall that Poplar had concluded to have a mechanism, but the mechanism could only be opened from the other side.
