Chapter 25 The Inside of the Coffin

The ancient tomb of Zhao Tuo, the king of Nanyue, is a mystery in history, even if there is really a map handed down, it must be extremely secretive, there is a story in it, but why are there two more?

I vaguely felt that this must not be simple, but I couldn't figure it out for a while, so I simply didn't think about it, and I looked through it again, and found that there was really no food and water that attracted me more than the funeral goods in front of me, and I was a little disappointed, so I put everything back in my backpack. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

I thought about it again, the backpack didn't look old, and it didn't have much dust, but I was afraid that the tomb robber who left it would not be long gone, but I didn't know why he left the backpack behind. Could it be that something had happened that made him have to leave such an important backpack behind?

Just thinking of this, but suddenly the "rustling" sound sounded again, I was stunned, this time I heard it very clearly, this sound actually came from the copper tripod in front of me.

This voice really made me uncomfortable, although I felt that it might not be a good thing, but after all, it was no match for the stubbornness of not detecting the heart and not dying, and I raised the torch in my hand and shone it into the copper tripod.

I don't know what this copper tripod was used for in ancient times, it was so tall and tight, I raised my toes, and I just showed half of my head, but I could just see the inside of the copper tripod clearly. It was just this sight that almost frightened me to throw away the torch in my hand, but fortunately I took a step back and grabbed the torch in my hand again.

I saw that in the copper tripod, there was a faint figure, wearing a sharp gray leather coat, half-squatting in the tripod, facing the wall of the tripod, and I didn't know whether it was dead or alive. I stood on the edge of the bronze tripod again, looked the figure up and down, and finally got the courage to ask, "Hey, hey, are you a human or a ghost?" Tell me back if you're panting? ”

Could it be that this person is the owner of this backpack? If he is still a living person, he can enter this ancient tomb alone, he must be a master of fighting and touching gold, as long as you follow him, you will definitely find a way out.

Seeing the hope of life, my heart was hot, and I was about to call him again, but I didn't think that he moved, but instead of standing up, his body shook gently, and I didn't know if he was injured or what's wrong, it felt like he was a little shorter, and the proportions of his body were extremely incongruous.

I would rather he just be injured and not be able to stand up, I changed sides, just within reach, but as soon as I stretched out my hand, a palm-long red thread popped out from under the man's clothes and landed on the clothes of my arm.

Isn't this the living creature of the lower body of those "informants" in the coffin? In less than a second, I recognized it, and with a "pop" in my heart, my hair stood on end, and goosebumps all over my body.

The red thread (because it looked like a red thread, I really didn't know what to call it) squirmed slowly on my arm, almost instinctively, and I threw it to the ground. The red line "snapped" to the ground, and it slowly crawled towards me again.

Professor Jia once said that it is actually a kind of Gu technique, a living creature like Cordyceps, it crawls towards me like this, does it treat me as a parasite?

I shook my head, and the red thread climbed faster and faster, almost to my feet, and I took the torch in my hand to burn it, but I didn't expect it to make a "squeak" sound in the fire, as if it was screaming in pain, but it was finally burned to char by the fire. Such a creature would be unimaginable if it had not been seen in person.

I was dealing with the red line living thing, I didn't think that there was a dense "rustle" sound behind me, I turned around and looked, and suddenly my scalp was numb, only to see that there was an "informant" crawling out of the copper tripod just now. It's exactly the same as what you see in the coffin of the Hundred Witches, except that the dry upper body is covered with a leather coat, and I don't know where it came from.

No wonder I mistook him for a half-crouching person, it turns out that the lower half of his body is actually a red-line living thing, and it is no wonder that I felt that the proportions of this person's body are so incongruous.

As soon as the "informant" Fang climbed onto the copper tripod, he landed with a "snap", like a big crab, and quickly crawled towards me, which was many times faster than the red line just now.

As soon as it hit the ground, I threw the torch in my hand, but it turned to the left as if sensing the danger of the torch, and avoided it, and the torch rolled on the ground a few times, and the fire weakened a lot, but it was not extinguished. Fortunately, it was not extinguished, otherwise I wouldn't have even known where to run in this dark tomb.

I cried out in my heart, and I turned around and ran away, but it was not slow, and it chased after me. Although the burial chamber was very large, it could not withstand my running, and after a while, I ran to the place where the sarcophagus had been placed. Squinted his eyes and glanced behind him, but he almost scared me into falling and eating, and the informant's speed was also extremely fast, and he had chased me to a place about two meters behind me.

At the moment of life and death, I didn't care about anything else, I jumped up to the sarcophagus, and quickly dodged to the side, but I jumped between them, and the speed slowed down, only to hear the "pop" on the sarcophagus behind me, and I didn't need to look to know that the informant jumped up.

The upper body of the dried corpse, the empty eye sockets looked particularly hideous under the flying red line, where did I dare to stop, jumped to the sarcophagus on the right, and suddenly my feet were thrown violently, my body suddenly lost balance, and my chest slammed heavily on the sarcophagus, so painful that I almost died on the spot.

Thinking of the death of "Glasses" in the coffin of Baishi Witch, I have no doubt at all that I will not avoid it, and in the next second, as long as it jumps slightly, it must have jumped on me, and the red thread pierced countless holes in my body.

I rolled sideways on the sarcophagus, and suddenly I heard the sound of "whirring" in my ears, and sure enough, as I expected, the informant jumped heavily and smashed into the place where I had just been lying. The force was so great that the lid of the extremely heavy sarcophagus coffin was also swayed diagonally to the side.

I lay on my back on the sarcophagus, and when I turned my head, I saw the red thread flying on the lower body of the informant rushing towards me again, which frightened me into distraction, and hurriedly rolled to the side again, hoping to roll down to the sarcophagus to dodge, but I didn't want to admit the wrong direction in a hurry, but rolled towards the big crack that was shaken open, and below was the black coffin.

At that moment, the speed was extremely fast, and it was too late to avoid it, so I fell into the sarcophagus, avoiding the pursuit of the informant, but unfortunately, the red line creature in the lower half of the informant's body pounced on me, and I used too much force, and I was struck heavily on the sarcophagus. The sarcophagus didn't move at all, but the lid of the coffin turned in the opposite direction, and I only felt the light above my head getting dimmer and dimmer, and the next second, I was already sealed in the sarcophagus.

The informant slapped the lid of the coffin heavily, obviously unwilling to let the prey escape, and the sarcophagus was staggered by it, just afraid that with its strange power, a few more strokes, the lid of the coffin would be shattered by it. But I was in the sarcophagus, and I had no time to care about the deadly Hades outside, because as soon as Fang fell down from the sarcophagus, the feeling from my body made me almost scared to death.

I thought that the sarcophagus was not a dry corpse that had been dead for thousands of years, or a zombie that would pounce on me when it smelled the breath of the living.

However, I came across a warm object.

As soon as Fang fell into the sarcophagus, I slammed it a warm object, and at that moment, the horror in my heart was worse than that of a zombie. I struggled to roll to the side, not thinking that the sarcophagus was narrow (in fact, I can't blame the sarcophagus for being narrow, after all, the coffin was originally designed to be laid down by one person, not two people), and as soon as I rolled my shoulder, I hit the wall of the coffin, and I gasped in pain, but the left half of my body was still leaning against the warm object.

I screamed in fright, but as soon as the sound came out of my throat, I couldn't see it in the dark, but I felt that the warm object next to me leaned towards me, and my mouth was blocked by something, and it became a "whine" sound.

The lid of the coffin on my head was swayed by the informant, and it could be opened at any time, but I was so shocked by what happened inside the coffin that I couldn't even make a "whine" sound, because judging from the senses on my mouth, it was another mouth that blocked my mouth.

Yes, you read that right, it's really another mouth, a pair of lips that feel a little weak.

There should be very few unthinkable things in this world, but this year, I have encountered them all. Words really can't describe me, and I felt that if I had to describe it in one word, all I could think of was ridiculous.

I only felt dizzy, and I don't know how long it took me to notice that the other mouth that was gagging my mouth was pulled away, and at this time, the lid of the coffin above my head seemed to be quiet. I don't know if there was not enough air in the sarcophagus or if my mouth was blocked for a long time, and my chest felt like it was about to explode, and I didn't know how to gasp for air until this time.

The air was inhaled into my lungs, and my mind suddenly cleared up, compared to the informant outside the sarcophagus, the fear of the unknown just made me tremble, I struggled, and I wanted to shout again, but I didn't expect that at this time there was a low female voice in my ears: "Don't make a sound, it's still outside." ”

My body stiffened, and I didn't know whether to listen to the woman's voice or because I was really surprised, and it took a long time before I whispered a few words out of my mouth.

"Are you a human or a ghost? Still zombies! ”

The female voice next to me was silent, I couldn't see anything in the dark, but I could hear her panting, if my hand wasn't squeezed into the sarcophagus at this time and couldn't be raised, I would have slapped myself hard, isn't this asking nonsense.

Sure enough, the female voice was separated for a long time, and she exhaled heavily, the two of us were facing each other, and this time it was all sprayed on my face, and there was a faint feminine fragrance in the warmth, and I dared to infer that the woman in front of me must not be very old.

"I'm a thousand-year-old female ghost, you broke into my home, I want you to accompany me." The woman whispered back angrily.

After confirming that the other party was a human, the fear in my heart disappeared, and my mind became clear, and he laughed in a low voice twice, and replied: "If you are a female ghost, then it is better for me to die in your hands than in the hands of that monster outside." ”

The woman moved, obviously trying to distance me, but after a few struggles, she found that there was really no room for her to move, so she had to give up the useless act, be still, and say, "Who are you?" ”

I was guessing her identity and what had happened to her, and when I saw her talking to me, I said, "I just wanted to ask who you are?" And how did you end up in a sarcophagus? ”

The woman was silent again, and after a while, she said, "I can enter here, but I'm afraid that everyone's identity is the same." I don't know what kind of incense is burning in front of the cabinet? ”

What she said was a secret mouth, that is, some jargon that the tomb robbers all understand, and those who generally touch the gold and sand will find out the identity of the other party when they meet, so as not to cause unnecessary friction.

But I am an ordinary person who was pulled to this sarcophagus by some inexplicable things, how can I understand these secret mouths at that time, I was stunned for a moment, and replied: "What did you say? ”

The woman may also be stunned, and tried to say: "Five pillars of incense are burned in front of the cabinet, facing southeast, and the incense is golden." What she said was her identity and origin, as long as she was an insider, she immediately understood that she was a child of this Taoist family, touching gold, and came from the southeast. Although I am also a child of a "family", the word "family" is to be put in double quotation marks, and I am really ashamed to say it.

I vaguely knew what she wanted to say, but I didn't understand anything at that time, so I had to be honest: "I don't understand what you're saying, I entered the ancient tomb because of some accident, I don't know how you got into the tomb and were trapped in the sarcophagus?" ”

After finishing speaking, I waited for her to answer, but after waiting for a long time, I didn't hear her speak again, I was in a hurry, and I just wanted to ask again, but I heard her sigh in a low voice, and said, "I see that you don't understand anything, and it is a miracle that you can enter here alive." Regardless of how I got here, I'm going to have to find a way out of here. ”

"Do you have a way?" As soon as the words came out, she knew that it was superfluous to ask, if she had a way to go out again, she would still like to lie here and become a dry corpse.

In the dark, Mo said that her expression was that she couldn't see what she looked like, so she just heard her say: "I was chased by the thing outside and fled into the sarcophagus, as long as there is no way to get rid of it, even if I go out, I will still die, and it is better to be safe in the sarcophagus." ”

"What the hell is that monster? Why, how is it so powerful? "Although I have seen it at the coffin of Baishi Witch before, Professor Jia's explanation is only a rough idea, and it is not very clear.

I also asked casually, not expecting her to understand, but I didn't expect her to be quiet for a while, but what she said surprised me.

"Who this tomb belongs to, I believe you can enter here and naturally know. This tomb was built on the feng shui treasure land where the indigenous people of Lingnan have buried their shamans for generations, in order to rob the spirit of the earth for hundreds of generations. And the monster outside was caused by the Gu art that had been passed down from generation to generation by the indigenous people of Lingnan. ”

"What kind of Gu technique is that, which can turn a dead person into such a powerful cordyceps?" I asked.

The woman was obviously stunned by my question, and when she answered, her voice actually smiled a little, and said, "Cordyceps, you can describe it, but it is quite appropriate." ”
