Chapter 260: Rare
The direction of the old Taoist's screams before his disappearance came from the bronze round belly ding.
Jin An rushed to the scene quickly.
As a result, I saw that the bronze tripod became tilted.
It turned out that a cave collapsed under one of Ding's feet, and the cave was so dark that I couldn't see how deep it was.
Jin An shouted a few times into the dark cave, but did not get a response from the old Taoist priest and the sword.
Nor did he respond to the mourning brothers.
At this time.
Everyone else hurried over.
When they saw the cave that had collapsed, several people were surprised and said: "How can there be a cave collapsed here?" Is it because the tomb here has collapsed once, resulting in the unstable structure of the tomb.
"I can't imagine that there is a cave under this bronze tripod, could it be that there is the real mausoleum of the lord of Teng Kingdom?"
Before they could finish speaking, they saw a figure running like a wind in front of them, and in a flash, the man grabbed a rope that had been tied and jumped into the bottomless cave.
Whew-
Whew-
Jin An's body was close to the tunnel, constantly sliding rapidly, there was a fierce wind whistling in his ears, and the torch he was holding in his other hand had already been extinguished by the wind.
It is equivalent to Jin An now being blind and sliding down in the cave.
Suddenly.
Jin An in the dark seemed to notice something, he threw the extinguished torch in his hand, and his five fingers turned into eagle claws, and he buckled it fiercely on the tunnel.
The black air cover rose up with five fingers, and the sharp air cover ploughed out a few feet away on the tunnel, stopping Jin An's body that was constantly sliding rapidly.
Boom!
Five fingers and hard rocks ploughed out violent sparks in the dark, and with the help of these sporadic sparks, Jin An finally landed steadily when he was about to hit a wall in front of him.
At the same time, he saw the torch that he had dropped earlier.
Poof.
Picking up the torch that fell on the ground, there was no fire spontaneously combusting, Jin An lit the torch with fire poison internal gas, and then began to look at the surrounding environment.
It's a burial chamber.
However, this burial chamber has deep traces of axe chiseling and iron wedges, which looks vigorous and clumsy, giving people a reckless scene of slash-and-burn farming.
The reason why I recognized this as a burial chamber in front of me was because there was a burial pit and many burial objects.
At the same time as Jin An lit the torch, several fat rats squeaked and screamed out of the burial pit, with black hair all over their bodies and tailless.
These black rats were very timid, and as soon as there was a stir, they immediately disappeared.
"Don't say it, this thing looks quite chic, it's the size of a groundhog, and it doesn't have a tail, is this a black dolphin?"
Black dolphins are good at burrowing.
"It's not right to say that this thing is a black dolphin, the black dolphin is herbivorous, except for the corpses and dead human flesh in this ancient tomb, there is only a single grass left, and they burrow here, unless they want to starve to death. ”
Jin An can no longer look directly at the black dolphins who escaped from the burial pit.
"However, the fact that rats of this size can be raised here means that no one has been here in this underground world for at least a long time. ”
There are two tombs in this tomb, and I don't know where they lead, Jin An searched around the tomb, and did not find the missing old Taoist priest and sword sharpening them, but found a few fresh traces on the ground, all of which led to one of the tombs.
It looks like someone has fallen down, not as agile as Jin An, and the person has been sliding into the tomb.
Jin An waited for a while, no one came down above his head, he was a little worried about the safety of the old Taoist priest and the sword, he groaned, he left the torch in place, and after making a mark, he entered one of the tombs.
Poof!
Poof!
Three yang fires are lit on the top of the head and on both shoulders, the yang fire is like a candle, and the brilliant fire is burning like the sun and the gods, reflecting the whole body, swaying fiercely.
Jin An rarely ignites his three fires of humanity in front of outsiders.
Because he always felt like a firefly, well, a firefly with a glowing butt......
Under the light of the three yang fires, Jin An began to explore this deeper world.
......
And not long after Jin An left the tomb, there was movement in the tunnel, and when he saw the fire in the tomb, the man stopped his body in time and landed smoothly.
This time it was the country goddess who came down.
As soon as the country goddess saw the mark left by Jin An, she was anxious to catch up.
Since then, they have come down separately to Duwei, Kuixing Kick Dou, the abbot of Bailong Temple, the monk Kongming, the monk Hongzhao... Under the guidance of Jin An, everyone landed safely, and then walked into the tomb along the mark left by Jin An.
......
After walking for a while, Jin An found a new clue in the tomb passage, which was the shoe footprints of four people.
Jin An looked overjoyed.
"It seems that there is a sharpening of the sword, and Lao Dao has not encountered any danger. ”
Jin An couldn't help but speed up his pace.
At the same time, Jin An's cheeks felt a subtle air flow, and there was really a way out of life ahead, and Jin An's face was happy again.
This time, the people didn't go far, and Jin An successfully saw the exit of the tomb.
Outside this tomb, there is a cliff, and he is standing on the edge of the cliff at this time, and outside the cliff, there is a naturally formed larger cavity.
On the cliffs beneath his feet, craftsmen drove up suspended stone steps, sloping downward.
Through the gap between the stone steps, you can see the bottomless abyss below.
This suspended staircase is definitely a nightmare for people who are afraid of heights.
Speaking of fear of heights, Jin An thought of the old Taoist, there were a few shoe footprints left on the hanging steps, and the old Taoist priest and the sharpening sword both stepped on this hanging step leading to the depths of the unknown underground.
......
Wow –
Wow –
I don't know how long I walked in the silence and darkness, the air gradually became humid, Jin An smelled the moisture of water vapor in the darkness, and heard the sound of running water.
As you go deeper underground, the moisture in the air becomes wetter.
At the same time, the cold air is very cold, and the temperature plummets.
At the end of this naturally formed hollow, there should be a cold pool or underground river passing by.
Suddenly, Jin An noticed that in the darkness ahead, there seemed to be many shadowy things floating in the air.
Jin An had more eyes, and this time he slowed down.
In the ancient tombs that have experienced all kinds of treacherous things along the way, don't pay much attention, Jin An doesn't know how many times he has died.
After entering the ground, a huge river channel appeared at the foot of the river, which is estimated to be a branch of the Yinyi River flowing into the belly of the mountain, and there is a rope suspension bridge on the river surface.
Drawbridges are complex and changeable, connecting to the dark depths of the unknown, and no one knows where they lead at the end.
And at this moment, Jin An finally cleared up, what were the shadows and shadows he had seen before, and there were black cloth prayer flags standing on the suspension bridge.
I don't know what material these black cloth prayer flags are made of, they don't rot for thousands of years, and the wooden planks of those suspension bridges are rotten, but these black cloth prayer flags are not rotten.
This does not bode well.
"Shhhh
Behind a cliff, a head wearing a nine-beam scarf sneakily poked out, which was the missing old Taoist priest.
The old Taoist priest beckoned to Jin An and made a silent gesture, signaling not to alarm those dead people.
And beside Lao Dao, Jin An also saw the two brothers of the mourners who fell together, and the pair of mourners stared at the black cloth prayer flags on the suspension bridge with their eyes, and they didn't even notice Jin An's arrival.
The only thing I didn't see was the sharpening of the sword!
