Chapter 169: The Four of the Year
As soon as Wu Qianqian finished speaking, my eyes lit up, and I caught a glimpse of a statue behind her who opened her eyes, but the next moment, it returned to its original appearance, and everything seemed to be just my illusion.
Is it really a hallucination? No way, my body temperature has risen, my consciousness is clear, even if it is dark here, I can't be mistaken, there is definitely a big problem with these statues.
"Nothing, I was just dazzled. You continue. ”
Wu Qianqian glanced at me suspiciously, and didn't ask, she was a smart person, and if she couldn't ask an answer, she wouldn't continue to chase and fight. I don't want to say more, but naturally I have my own reasons.
"There's a problem with the statue in the middle of every wall." She half-crouched, reaching close to the fading fires, "Each one has a trap hidden in it." ”
Predictable.
"Do you have a way to open it?"
She tilted her head to look at me, nodded and shook her head, "These are all very simple mechanisms, but the problem is ......" After a pause, she smiled bitterly, "The mechanisms of the four statues are exactly the same. ”
The implication was that she couldn't tell which of the four organs was the real exit, and what the consequences would be for the other three.
Her Wu Qianqian's expression seemed to be a little lost, and her face was full of sadness. A woman who has gone through so many things can still stand up and hold on until now, which is already admirable, how can she be forced to be as strong as an invincible person?
"It's going to be fine." This is for her, and for myself, if I don't even believe that I will get out alive. So what's the value of the effort? "You tell me how to open the mechanism, and I'll figure out the rest. Don't worry, we'll be fine. ”
Freeze to death? How could blue eyes make me die so comfortably? He said he was going to kill me.
The setup of each mechanism is indeed very simple, and even a little deliberate. The second time I looked, I found that each statue had a short dagger stuck in its chest, and just pushing the dagger in it would trigger the mechanism. It's really a simple and crude setup.
I shivered a few times, and as soon as I left the fire, I immediately felt the chill that kept surrounding me, and goosebumps all over my body rose again.
The first statue is clearly an image of a king. The costumes are cumbersome and gorgeous. He wore a jade pendant on the left and right sides of his waist, and a delicate crown of nine crowns on his head.
After taking a few steps, I saw the second statue, a minister in civilian attire. Voluminous robes. Clasp your hands around your chest. In his right hand, he grasped a piece of feldspar, probably the hand board that he held on to the court, called "Wat".
Opposite the second statue. It's the opposite of it -- a general. Wearing battle armor, a long sword at his waist, his eyes are closed, but his eyebrows and expressions still reveal a sense of heroism and oppression that cannot be ignored.
The fourth, arguably the most embarrassed of all the twenty statues, was dressed in an unadorned robe, with leg cuffs on his feet, his hands folded in front of his chest, his expression relieved, and the corners of his mouth seemed to be raised, like a believer about to be redeemed.
I stared at the last statue for a long time and couldn't take my eyes off it, my mind was like a crash, it was blank, and I almost lost the ability to think.
On his shoulder, above the blade of the knife stuck in his left chest, is the thing I am very familiar with - the ghost mask, the ghost mask of the man in Tsing Yi, the ghost mask of Yang Yun!
I understand! These statues are from that time!
The one who is in handcuffs is definitely Yang Yun, then the civil official is Li Wenhan, the military general is Baili Zhengyun, and the prince who looks like the king is King Shuliang.
If you look closely, the facial features of the last statue are really eight or nine points similar to mine.
A dagger was inserted in everyone's chest, indicating that the master here had a deep hatred for these four people, especially towards Yang Yun. What the hell is the origin of that mysterious man? There are only a handful of people who are related to a few people, but I never know who their colleagues are still hostile to.
In this way, I only know that Yang Yun led the bloodbath plan, but I don't know why, why bloodbath? Who is the main target of the bloodbath? In the end, how did the Qu Kingdom perish?
"I'm the only person in the world like you......
This voice suddenly came to my head, I had the same experience? Knowing the identities and appearance of these people, and claiming to be the same person as me, could he be a person at that time, who has lived in hatred for thousands of years.
"What's wrong?" Wu Qianqian saw that something was wrong with me, so she patted me on the shoulder, "Brother Lingyi?" ”
I immediately came back to my senses, shook my shoulders, calmed down a little, and pointed to Yang Yun's statue: "That's it, I'm sure, this is the mechanism to go out." ”
"Why are you so sure?" She glanced at the statue before staring into my eyes, "You seem to be a little out of your mind. ”
It must be the one, it can't be wrong, there is a grudge against these people, it is definitely related to the bloodbath tragedy, so calculated, in the final analysis, the other party should hate Yang Yun the most, and only Yang Yun was still handcuffed.
If it were me, I would also regard Yang Yun as an export. Just imagine how much pleasure it is to stab the person you hate the most in the chest every time you come here and when you go out!
"No, I'm fine, I'm sober." Rejected her in one mouth, staring at the statue with a calm face, "This must be the mechanism to get out, believe me, only this is the most special." ”
If she tries to thwart me, in this situation, I will have a tie with her at best, and without her trust, I will not have a chance to activate the mechanism.
"We don't have a choice." The fire was now extinguished, and only the light of the sparkling fire came out to say a final farewell to this world with the smoke curling. Either give it a go and try to survive; If you are slow and backward, you will only be frozen to death here, rather than this, it is better to be happy.
"Okay, I trust you."
As soon as the words fell, I breathed a sigh of relief, except for the four, the other sixteen statues all opened their eyes, and in an instant, dozens of long needles shot out of it, each of which was more than 20 centimeters long, and it didn't enter the body, which was a heart-piercing pain.
By the time he reacted and lay down, his upper body had been pierced with more than ten or twenty stitches, like a hedgehog. It lasted for more than thirty seconds before stopping, followed by the sound of gears running, and the stone statues in the middle of each wall began to sink. I screamed in my heart that it was not good!
The whole person pounced, and just as he was about to reach out and push the dagger on the statue's chest, the stone statue's jaw sank, and a long cone poked out of its mouth. I couldn't dodge it, and almost at the same time that I touched the mechanism, the thing pierced my body directly.
At that time, I was so cold that I was almost unconscious, but this time, I suddenly felt a tearing pain, a fishy sweetness in my throat, and I couldn't stop turning up a burst of sticky liquid.
The statue stopped falling, and I was half-kneeling on the ground, looking at my vague shadow, really like a death row prisoner who had been punished and pierced by thousands of arrows.
"Brother Lingyi!" (To be continued......)
