Chapter 214: Trap Arm

The murderous corpse was sealed in the relief, and the raid team was successful, and in less than a few minutes, we lost more than a dozen people.

The man in black wanted to pull out the dried corpses in the wall but couldn't, the relief was like a barrier to stop the footsteps of the living, and the rest of the people became two in a row, walking in the center of the passage to avoid being attacked by the dry corpses in the reliefs on the left and right.

It turns out that the dried corpses inside the wall can only stretch out their arms, and their bodies and legs do not come out, but despite this, the relief wall with dozens of arms stretched out after walking two steps is still chilling.

Sanjiu was parallel to me, and when he saw the dried corpses in the relief, he whispered to me, "Are they special?" ”

I wrapped a thread around a dry hand, and after some probing, I said to him, "It's mechanical control." ”

Sanjiu's brows moved slightly, he strode to the wall suddenly, grabbed an arm and pulled it vigorously, the arm was torn off by him, and when everyone saw the structure of the arm, they were all dumbfounded.

The so-called arm of the dried corpse is a mechanical arm wrapped in human skin, the fingers and joints are made of metal, and the arm bones are replaced by wood.

The people who entered the tomb saw the moving arm of the corpse, and when they saw the movable arm of the corpse, they thought it was a corpse, and like those who ran away, they couldn't help but be frightened and confused.

Hu Sanmao's eyes were almost attached to the arm of the imitation dry corpse, he asked the man in black next to him to illuminate him, and after observing it carefully for a long time, he smiled and said: "It's not a human skin, it's an animal skin." ”

The human psyche is so strange, the thing that I was afraid of just now, after learning its essence. Immediately it turned into a floating cloud, and everyone's expressions relaxed.

The owner of the tomb was a wise man, and if he had sealed the corpse inside the wall made of a human being, he would have to sacrifice thousands of people, to say the least, based on the number of arms.

The use of prosthetics is different, not only to intimidate tomb robbers, but also do not have to sacrifice human life, as long as a little mechanical technology, such as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period Mojia mechanism, can achieve the effect of ancient tomb security and anti-theft.

There was a false alarm. After listening to Hu Sanmao's explanation. No longer afraid of the arms in the relief, the next part of the road is extraordinarily smooth.

After marching for nearly 100 meters, someone in the team let out a terrible scream, and all the lighting tools gathered towards the sound source. on the ground. Two guards were broken into four sections. The screams were those who walked ahead of them.

The tomb behind him was dark and silent, and the two people at the back of the line died tragically, and the people in front didn't even see the murderer. He turned back when he heard the sound of the body falling to the ground.

The team stopped moving again, and the death of the two guards was so strange that no one wanted to walk at the end of the line.

Fei Hao squatted next to the corpse, he looked at the fractures of the two corpses, and said, "The cut surface is neat, it should be a very sharp weapon, but it is not man-made." ”

In the same way, different people's understandings will be biased, and Sanjiu and another person spoke almost at the same time:

"Trap!"

"There are ghosts!"

I glared at the benevolent brother who said that there was a ghost, the ghost who slashed people with a guillotine only appeared in the story of the eighteenth layer of hell, and now everyone is in the ancient tomb, Fei Hao obviously means that there is a powerful mechanism here!

The man was sturdy, wearing a one-piece suit for a man in black, and at some point he took off his hood, revealing a square face full of stubble, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, but he was a little timid.

For the sake of being Asian, I explained, "There is probably a mechanism on this road that is triggered by the people in front and the people in the back suffer. ”

This kind of mechanism is not uncommon, and it is designed to deal with gangs that organize tomb robbers, and if it is a duo or trio, its effect is basically zero.

Sanjiu observed the road we walked, and bent his index finger to tap the stone bricks on the ground, and the entire tomb was paved with stone bricks carved with patterns and patterns, each of which was 30 by 30 centimeters square.

Then he got up and checked the walls on both sides, and as if he had found a mystery, he said, "Pay attention to your feet, and don't step on any brick engraved with the moon pattern, and if anyone steps on it, the last person will immediately lie on the ground." ”

After his further explanation, everyone learned the cause of death of the two guards, the stone brick engraved with the moon pattern on the ground is the start button of the mechanism, the person in front stepped on it, and a sharp steel wire or something similar would pop out of the walls on both sides of the rear.

In other words, the two guards were cut off by a tightened steel wire or something similar, and Sanjiu's statement was accepted by everyone, and everyone began to pay careful attention to their feet.

Due to the different positions of the square bricks engraved with the moon pattern, the speed of travel was inevitably affected, and Hu Sanmao simply let the man in black carry him on his back, saving him from stepping on the wrong brick with short legs.

The 'Moon Road' is about 200 meters long, which is not a 'far' distance in normal times, but everyone is sweating, and the moon pattern on the road tiles below disappears, but everyone knows that this does not mean safety.

"That's... Big brother and big sister, don't you think it's strange? "The strong man in black probably took the initiative to talk to us because I had explained the mechanism of the tomb to him.

"What's strange?" I asked.

"Look, that section of the road was so dangerous just now, why didn't any of those people who were scared away by fake dry corpses be hit?" The strong man in black still spoke with a little accent, took off the bank robber-style hood, and his expression was particularly rich.

Sanjiu looked at him expressionlessly and said, "There are not only mechanisms on the ground, but also on the top of the head!" ”

After he said this, not only the strong man in black, but even Hu Sanmao and the others also tilted their heads and looked around for the legendary mechanism above their heads.

It doesn't matter if you look up, when the lighting beams on your mobile phones and watches hit the darkness overhead, everyone was surprised to find that the dark space above was like a black hole of nothingness, as if a monster would reach out from it at any time and pull the people below in.

Hu Sanmao lay on the back of the man in black, he straightened up, took off the pen pinned to the pocket of his white coat, raised it and carefully poked the darkness above his head.

"Huh? It's weak! Hu Sanmao's curiosity outweighed his fear, and he now wondered what kind of substance the pen touched with his weakness, so he put away his pencil and put his fingers into the darkness instead.

Under the illumination of the light, his retracted fingertips were stained with a crimson color, and he put it under his nose and sniffed it, his eyes widened in astonishment, and he cried out in a lost voice: "It's blood!" ”

With his shout, a bloody corpse fell, but fortunately, the black-clothed man with Hu Sanmao on his back was agile, he turned to the side, took two steps back, and let go of the smashed corpse.

The corpse has long been unrecognizable, just like the bloody man, this corpse that should have been completely dead, after falling, actually moved, as if it was trying to stand up! (To be continued.) )
