"So in order to ensure that no matter when the coffin falls, the sound will not be detected, the designers estimated that the simplest method was adopted: deliberately designed the fall of stalactites to be staggered to meet the needs of this purpose."

"This also avoids the situation that if someone starts the stalactites to fall in the middle of the formation, and there are accomplices in the corridor on the edge who have not entered, it will be easy to find out the secret of the coffin's 'disappearance'. At the same time, because the coffin will definitely make a sound when the stone slab closes again after it falls, such a design is even more important and important. The younger brother withdrew his hand that was constantly gesturing in the air to cooperate with the explanation, "So according to my speculation, the coffin is probably underground." With the technology of the time, there was no way to hide this coffin far. ”

It dawned on me at once: "So let's just go over and find a way to pry open the stone slab later, and we can see the coffin, right?" But how do you pull it back up? "After all, since the designer tried to prevent others from coming into contact with the coffin, there must be no mechanism designed to bring the coffin back to the ground......

"No, the coffin is so heavy, and we don't have the tools we need, so it's basically impossible to pull it up with just the two of us." My brother waved his hand, then looked at my face with some caution, "So...... We'll have to go down and check the coffin ourselves......"

"What?!" I was so shocked that I almost choked on my own saliva, "You mean?!" …… We went down on our own, and then in that small, dark space. Alone with a coffin that has been stored for hundreds of years?! And at the risk of not being able to climb up again?? Yu Luo, have you ever watched a zombie movie?! ”

"I know, I know." My brother hurriedly reassured me, "But this is also the most feasible way in this situation...... And, in order to avoid the danger of never being able to climb up again, only one of the two of us can go down to the coffin alone, and the other must be ready to deal with any contingencies at any time. ”

"Alone?!! I'm going to have nightmares!! And according to what you say, I'm relatively lightweight, so you must want me to go down?! Your ability to deal with emergencies in such a dark place must be better than mine, and it must be more reasonable to leave you there!! But I don't want to be alone with the coffin?!! I don't even dare to go to the haunted house in the playground!! "I almost broke down and screamed.

"It's okay, it's okay, there's no need to follow this fixed and rigid routine. If you're really scared, I can go down without a problem. Anyway, just go down and take a look. It's coming up right away, and you don't have to wait long, and if I'm fast enough, nothing unexpected will happen. My brother immediately began to comfort me again, and said that he could do it alone without me having to do it.

But it was too dangerous for him. I'm an older sister. I can't drop the chain like this at the critical moment - I've been holding us both back a lot since just now. That's what I say at this time. Even I can't help but spit on myself.

I took several deep breaths, forced myself to calm down, and then calmed down. Summoning the greatest courage, he grabbed his arm: "...... No, I'll go down. You are up there and ready to come and save me as soon as I scream or make any strange noise. His voice and hands were still shaking.

"No, no need sister, if you faint down like this, I won't be able to get you out, but it's even more difficult. I'd better go down, okay? You wait for me obediently up there, don't run around, just tell me as soon as you have anything, I know this kind of place is what you're not good at, you don't have to force yourself, I'm your own brother, it's no problem to show me the weak side, I can understand it. Sensing my intense fear and uneasiness, my brother grabbed my arms with his backhand and spoke to me very seriously.

I looked him in the eye and suddenly it really calmed down. Then he shook his head equally seriously: "It's okay, let me go down." I'm not pushing myself, it's better to say that if I don't go down at this time, I'll be very entangled and uncomfortable for a long time, so you better let me go. I know you're thinking about your sister, but it's better for me to go down this situation. My sister also promised you that I wouldn't faint, otherwise I'd be too inferior as an elder, wouldn't I? After saying that, he showed a big smile.

My brother saw that I was indeed not as nervous as I was just now, so he relaxed a little and nodded in agreement, "Okay then." But if you feel wrong or scared, don't hesitate to let me know. ”

I nodded my head to indicate that I understood. At this time, the rockfall around me had largely subsided, and my brother and I made a tentative re-attempt in the direction of the flat ground where the coffin had been placed.

Due to the fact that we were all very careful this time, or because there was only one trap set up here, we didn't trigger any other strange traps along the way.

When I finally got to the flat ground, my younger brother took the lead and walked to the center of the flat land. As he walked, he tapped his heel on the floor around him to see if there was any hollow sound, to find out where the coffin had fallen, or if there were any other traps or something, to avoid being ambushed.

As we approached the center, we suddenly heard an empty "knock" on one floor, different from the thick "click" sound we made when we hit the other floors. The younger brother immediately pointed to the bottom of his heel at this time: "The coffin is under here." ”

I suddenly started to get nervous again: "So how are we going to open this slate now?" "There's no metal rod or wrench around that we can use to pry the slate.

"It's very simple, use smashing." The younger brother pushed back the large pile of newly formed gravel outside the flat ground, "The material is abundant, and you can't break it if you don't believe it." ”

"......" is really simple and crude, but I have to admit that this is indeed the most practical and effective idea we can use at the moment.

So we began to carry the stones back and forth along the same path, repeating the actions of "moving", "smashing", "moving", and "smashing" indefinitely, until the right side of the stone slab finally couldn't stand such a strong blow and collapsed. (To be continued.) )
