Chapter 155: The Depths of the Iron Chain (Text)
"What are these locks for?"
Zhang Meng was a little dumbfounded, the entire space was almost full of arm-thick iron chains, and the openings connected by those iron chains were all locked with hundreds of torture instruments.
This kind of lock is specially used to detain prisoners in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the internal structure is very complicated.
"There's a monument in front, fat man, look at what is written on it?"
Zhang Mengyan suddenly saw a small stone tablet at the corner of this pile of iron chains, and his heart moved, there wouldn't really be a coffin buried here, right?
"Hey, this text seems a little weird, it seems to be a ...... of the text."
The fat man didn't dare to get too close, and he stared at it vigorously, and only after a long time did he turn around and say uncertainly.
"Death?"
Zhang Meng was shocked, but soon a touch of excitement swelled up, it seems that the uncle is right, there must be some kind of connection between this tomb and Liu Qu's tomb, maybe he can really discover the secret of the ghost vein on his body.
"Fatty, can you read what is written on the stele?" Zhang Meng asked anxiously.
"No, those words are too small, if you want to read them, you can keep reading." The fat man shook his head and said, his attention was all on the golden ladder at this moment, and he was comparing how to dismantle the ladder there, so he was naturally not interested in these impractical questions.
"Fat man, look at me, I'll go down and see what else is written on the stone tablet......" Zhang Meng really couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart, and couldn't help but say to the fat man eagerly.
"Comrade Zhang, don't mess around!"
The fat man was startled, and he looked a little bad: "Why do I think there must be some evil things in this chain?" In ancient times, iron chains were mostly used to connect war horses, or to torture prisoners, and iron-smelting technology did not improve significantly until the Ming and Qing dynasties, so these iron chains generally have symbols such as "battle" and "ominous". The number of chains here is so huge, and I don't know what they lock......"
Zhang Meng listened to the fat man's strange words, and he also retreated a little in his heart.
"But it's really an evil door, this wind seems to come out of those miscellaneous chains, could it be that there is a passage here?"
Chen lame stared inside, and asked thoughtfully.
"Otherwise, I'll go down a few steps, Uncle Cripple and Fatty, you two help me keep an eye on it, and if there's any movement, tell me quickly!"
Zhang Meng said just do it, he threw a few stones below, and after seeing that there was no reaction, he cautiously walked down the golden steps.
A cold breath made Zhang Meng couldn't help but shiver, the slightly cold breath here was even worse than above, fortunately, the clothes they were wearing were not very thin, otherwise they would probably freeze at this time.
Zhang Meng slowly approached the chain, he held his breath, for fear of alarming something unknown, the faint heartbeat was particularly clear in the small space opened up.
Whoa!
Suddenly, there was a slight sound from the iron chain, but for Zhang Meng, who was in a nervous state at the moment, it was undoubtedly a bombshell.
His body was frightened and twitched, and suddenly the whole person stiffened and didn't dare to move, and after a century, he didn't hear the warning of the fat man and the cripple man, so he relaxed a little.
"Could it be that there's really something in there?"
Thinking of the fat man's words, Zhang Meng couldn't help but feel furious in his heart, he approached the pile of iron chains, stretched out his trembling hand and touched it.
With a slight pull, the big lock connecting the two iron chains, I don't know if it was the reason for the disrepair, actually cracked directly.
Hearing the sound of the big lock suddenly breaking, Zhang Meng's heart tightened, but after finding that there was no movement, he relaxed a little.
Seeing that there seemed to be no mechanism here, Zhang Meng's courage also increased, and a curious thought couldn't help but swelled up in Zhang Meng's heart, Zhang Meng stared at the pile of swarthy chains, and he had the courage to fiddle with it!
Zhang Meng found that the ingredients of these things are very sufficient, a complete chain weighs almost hundreds of kilograms, even if Zhang Meng tries his best, he can't pull it even if his face is flushed.
Poof! Poof!
The surroundings were so quiet that only the sound of heartbeats remained, and the silence was simply breathtaking.
"Isn't that right? I was so loud when I pulled these chains, why didn't I make any sound at all? Zhang Meng finally felt that something was wrong.
He has been immersed in the things inside the iron chain, but he did not notice the abnormality of the surrounding atmosphere, and at this moment he saw the two iron chains slamming together, but there was still a strange calm around, Zhang Meng finally realized where the source of the problem was.
Zhang Meng's scalp exploded, he looked back and saw that the fat man and Chen Cripple were jumping and jumping at the entrance more than a dozen steps away, the expressions on their faces were distorted, as if they had seen something terrifying, and their mouths seemed to be shouting something. But Zhang Meng could only see the two of them open their mouths wide, and they couldn't hear any sound at all!
This scene is so bizarre, as if he has come to another dimension alone, and he can't hear a word of what others say.
Zhang Meng only felt that he was trapped in the ice cellar, and the feeling of fear overwhelmed him, and he looked back to see that the focus of the flashlight just shone into the chain!
In the depths of the chain, a huge monster face is staring at him, this face has only one eyeball, the eyeball occupies more than 70% of the face, and that eye seems to carry the grievances of countless animals before death, Zhang Meng looked at each other, and felt as if a cold hand pinched his throat, making him like an ice sculpture, and he couldn't shout a word!
Zhang Meng wanted to retreat, but at this moment, his thoughts seemed to be controlled, and it was difficult for his body to move even a little.
I don't know how long it took, Zhang Meng only felt that his head seemed to be hit hard by a heavy object, and his body involuntarily fell to the ground, and then he walked out of the entrance.
"There are only three of them, and an old man who is going to die!"
An indifferent voice made Zhang Meng suddenly come back to his senses, and he found that six men in camouflage uniforms and rifles appeared around him.
These people are all fierce, and their hands holding guns are very steady, Zhang Meng quickly twisted his head to the side, and found that the fat man and Chen Cripple were also pointing at him, looking at him helplessly.
"I said what kind of nerves did you kid, touch it there for a long time, so that you didn't react, and Lao Tzu died in a hurry! How else can you let those puppies take advantage of the situation? ”
The fat man couldn't stand it after all, and pointed at Zhang Meng and scolded.
