Chapter 54: Followed

In fact, most of the ancient tombs were not as dangerous as those written in the novels, and the deadly threats encountered by tomb robbers were nothing more than suffocation, falling rocks, quicksand, stagnant water, poisonous gas, etc., and the function of crossbow arrows and other types would decline with the passage of time.

The industrial level of Qingqiu country is not high, mainly fishing, bronze casting technology and other smelting levels are also limited, and the anti-theft technology of the mausoleum will not be bizarre and complicated due to its limitations.

I'm more worried about poison gas, but the air here is well circulated, and there is no poison gas, so I just need to be careful of traps or falling rocks.

Having experienced the threat of darkness under the canyon, I was not so scared of the artificially constructed passages, although I was also underground, and I was surrounded by darkness, but it still felt much worse.

We had passed the time before parting, fifteen minutes had passed since we parted, and nothing had happened on my side, but I didn't dare to be careless, and I still paid attention to every step.

Time passed minute by minute, and half an hour later, the exit was not seen, but the flashlight suddenly went out.

I took out the spare battery in my backpack and replaced it, but it still didn't light up, so I had to put it back in my bag, and it seemed that I had to tell Sanjiu to give the owner a bad review.

"You're here..."

A woman's voice sounded not far away, I cursed the unreliability of modern supplies, and quickly took out the lighter and lit it, and by the faint light of the fire, I saw a woman standing ten paces away from me.

burst

The flame of the lighter was blown out by a sudden dark wind, and no matter how I pressed it, it couldn't light up.

I wouldn't shoot, but a hundred steps through Yang was not in vain, and depending on where the woman was standing, my hand reached for the belt at my waist, where there was a special dart belt, and I drew a dart and threw it in that direction without hesitation.

With a ding, the dart hit the wall and fell to the ground, apparently missing the target.

"You're out..."

The sound was a little closer, and I threw two more darts in quick succession, depending on the position of the sound, and all I got was the sound of the darts falling to the ground.

"Hehe..."

This time, the voice appeared behind me, close to my ear, and I turned around in shock, and punched and struck, and the empty fist made my heart sink all the way to the bottom.

It also confirmed the guess in my heart that she was not a human at all, but a ghost!

In the light of the lighter just now, I saw a woman in ancient costume, white clothes and snow, hair like splashed ink, but she stood with her back to me and didn't let me see her face.

But the silence unnerved me more than the ghosts, and I leaned my back against one wall and shouted into the darkness, "Who is it?" Come out! ”

After waiting for a while, I didn't wait for anything, I just picked up my pace and ran forward, and when I was tired of running, I leaned against the wall to rest.

"Sure enough......"

The cold breath brushed the pinna of my ear, and I was shocked into a cold sweat by the close voice, could it be that she had been on my back all the time?!

I was so scared that I suddenly calmed down and stopped running around, if she could hurt me, she didn't have to talk nonsense, just act.

I sneered and said, "You don't have to scare me, I'm not going to be scared by you." ”

With a distant sigh, the passage became dead silent again, and I turned my flashlight again, and sure enough, it lit up when I pressed it.

I turned the flashlight forward, and found that the exit was only a few meters away, and there was a person standing there, and I was startled to see someone, but if I looked closely, it was originally a stone statue.

The stone man in armor wears a fox face mask on his face, exactly the same as the one engraved on the relief, and these eight achievements are the guards of the mausoleum.

The tall stone statue was blocked in the middle of the exit, and I wanted to bypass him and get past him, but I thought the backpack was too heavy and got in the way, so I threw it out of the exit first, and then I turned sideways to squeeze past the stone statue.

But just as I was about to get out of the way, its head moved and it turned its face towards me.

I was taken aback, and hurriedly took the last step, but the stone statue blocked the exit with its arm horizontal, and when I saw that the road was impassable, I bent my knee and tried to pass under its arm, but it grabbed me with its backhand and grabbed me by the back collar.

I backhanded the five stone fingers, but they clenched their fists tightly and grabbed the back collar of my coat.

I took off my coat and pulled it with both hands, trying to snatch back the only piece of clothing to keep out the cold.

The underground is different from the ground, and the hot summer wind can also turn into a biting yin wind in this dark tomb, so it is best not to cause casualties to clothing.

In the end, I found that I couldn't pull at all, so I simply used a dagger to cut off the part that was holding on to it, and finally rescued the coat.

It was only then that I had a chance to observe my surroundings, and the place where I had entered was supposed to be an ear chamber, and the floor was full of funerary goods.

But it is not a valuable thing, most of them are pottery, many of them have been damaged, although there are no hidden weapons here, but there is no road to the main tomb.

It's a dead end, but it's not dangerous, and since this road doesn't work, I have to go back as soon as possible, and maybe I can catch up with Sanjiu.

I turned back much faster than I had come in, and it took me almost half the time to get back to the fork in the road, and yet I saw someone I didn't expect.

I was surprised: "Bai Rui! Why are you here? ”

He wrote in a small notebook: "I don't worry about you. ”

I suddenly felt a chill, and hurriedly said, "I'm fine, you go out quickly!" ”

He quickly wrote down three words: "I'll be with you." ”

I waved my hand impatiently and said, "No, I'll go to my husband, it's not appropriate for you to follow!" ”

Bai Rui didn't write, but he didn't see any intention of leaving, I couldn't go on with him like this, it was daytime, so he was normal, and when he became that ghost at night, I couldn't deal with it alone.

He can't help it if he wants to follow me, so it's up to him to persuade me not to move, I saw the path chosen by Sanjiu and walked in quickly.

The speed of coming in is fast, but the walk can't be too fast, I haven't forgotten to pay attention to safety, but a road to the end found that it is a dead end, there is no exit at all.

This can't, if he doesn't exit Sanjiu, he will definitely have to go back the same way, if he chooses the road again, he will definitely choose the one I go, because I am the most inexperienced of the three of us, and it is easier to have accidents.

But now it seems that he didn't choose my path, he should have gone to Jin Sanfat.

I turned back again, and Bai Rui kept a distance of five meters from me, and as soon as I turned around, I could see him, and his behavior irritated me, and he was either a traitor or a thief, and I was very wary of him when I thought of the ghost bride in that room.

"You're welcome to follow me again!"

He didn't write anything, just looked at me, I raised the dagger in my hand, pointed at him and said, "You want to die here?" ”

He took a few steps back, and as soon as I saw the door, I walked forward with my dagger and forced him back, but the entrance became a wall, and the exits on either side were gone!

If it weren't for some mechanism in operation, it would never have happened for no reason, so I calmed my head down and carefully remembered if I accidentally touched the mechanism.

But the answer is no, then it is automatic? There are tomb doors that close automatically, and there may also be mechanisms that activate automatically!

But it's useless to figure it out now, I don't know how it works and how it works, I can only wait.

If I'm stuck here, it's okay to say, the food and water in my backpack are enough for me to eat for a few days, but now there is an irregular bomb/bomb trapped with me, and I only have time to be safe during the day, and he will become a monster at night.

Should I strike first and kill him before he is ready?
