Chapter 64: The Ancient Tomb
After Xiang Luyang walked down the steps, he didn't rush forward first, but carefully observed the surrounding environment with a torch, and within the scope of the torch, he didn't see the end of the steps, and knocked on the walls on both sides of the steps with the handle of the knife, and the sound was relatively dull, obviously it was not empty, and he looked up at the head again, it was also a ceiling made of square bricks, and there was no trace of falling off, and he checked it carefully, and then along the two sides of the wall, the handprints left by Li Shan and others slowly walked down.
While going down, Xiang Luyang silently counted the number of steps in his heart, and when the steps were counted to four hundred and ninety knots, the steps finally came to an end, Xiang Luyang calculated in his heart, at this time, everyone should have been more than sixty meters underground.
Although it has reached a depth of more than 60 meters, it is not damp here, and it seems that this tomb has been treated with moisture at the beginning of its design.
Looking at the well-preserved murals on both sides of the wall, Xiang Luyang had some doubts about the age of this tomb, according to Li Shan, this tomb should be an ancient tomb in the pre-Qin period, but looking at the craftsmanship of the murals on the wall, and the social status quo reflected, this should obviously be an ancient tomb of the Tang Dynasty.
After walking a little further, Xiang Luyang was even more sure of his thoughts, because in the murals, Tang Dynasty people with distinctive costumes had already appeared.
After turning another corner, Luo Tianwu came to Xiang Luyang's side, "Lu Yang, you be careful in front, this tomb is a bit weird, a Tang tomb of this scale should be at least a princely tomb, but as far as I know, near Beijing City, it seems that there are no decent Tang tombs." ”
Xiang Luyang nodded.
"I also find it strange that this tomb is a little too quiet, it stands to reason that a tomb of this size will have some mechanism to some extent, but so far, we haven't seen even a trace of it."
Just as the two were talking, a woman's scream suddenly came from the depths of the passage, and listening to the voice, it seemed to be the woman in white, Zhang Yuelian.
Hearing a voice, Wu Ran was about to rush forward, but Xiang Luyang grabbed him.
"Don't worry, the situation ahead is unknown, let's be cautious and beware of their trap."
After walking slowly for a distance, Xiang Luyang and the others finally saw Zhang Yuelian, Zhang Yuelian was unconscious at this time, her lower abdomen was pierced by a spear, and at this time, along the edge of the spear, blood was oozing out, and there was no trace of blood on her pale face, only a faintly undulating chest, proving that this person was still alive.
stepped forward to check Zhang Yuelian's injury, Luo Tianwu shook his head at Xiang Luyang, meaning, there is no help.
After carefully inspecting the spear that stabbed Zhang Yuelian, Xiang Luyang spoke: "This spear was not brought in by them, it should be something that was originally in this tomb, everyone be careful, from here on, there should be a mechanism." ”
Gao Biying pointed at Zhang Yuelian, "How to deal with this person?" ”
Jin Bao, stepped forward with a knife, and was about to take Zhang Yuelian's life, but Xiang Luyang grabbed him.
"Although she is full of evil, she is now deserved to be punished, don't kill her, let her fend for herself in this ancient tomb."
Jinbao put away the knife and didn't speak, in fact, he couldn't bear to attack a dying man.
After walking forward for a distance, Gao Biying rushed to the front of the group, the long sword in her hand kept waving, and with the continuous swinging of the long sword, Xiang Luyang and the others heard the sound of metal colliding.
Looking at the dozens of hidden weapons on the ground, Wu Ran spoke: "How did you do it, with a gas mask, you can hear the sound of the hidden weapon breaking the wind." ”
Gao Biying said: "This is just pediatrics, you can do it with a little training." ”
After walking some distance further, under the reminder of Gao Biying and Jinbao, everyone dodged a few more traps.
After dodging more than a dozen spears that shot side by side, Wu Ran said indignantly: "This Li Shan is really cunning, he didn't crack it even if he knew that there was a mechanism, so he left it for us." ”
Luo Tianwu kicked him in the ass and said, "Where is so much nonsense, you want this easy-to-break mechanism, you will crack it for your enemy?" ”
After turning two more corners, Jinbao spoke: "This is a typical tomb in the shape of "Hui", if I guess correctly, we are about to approach the tomb, everyone is smart, this is a tomb, the most dangerous place." ”
Sure enough, they didn't go far ahead, Xiang Luyang and the others saw a door, this door had been opened, and through the half-open door, they could already see the tomb wall inside.
Just as Xiang Luyang was about to walk towards the door, Jin Bao grabbed him.
"Strange, how can you see the tomb wall from this angle, there is something strange here, don't move it yet, I'll go over and take a look first."
Approaching the ajar tomb door, Jinbao took off his coat and threw it inside, seeing that the clothes were intact and fell to the ground, Jinbao looked inside.
I saw that in this door, there were tomb walls everywhere, and all the tomb walls went straight to the top of the tomb, like a load-bearing wall, separating the tomb.
Seeing that there was no danger inside, he opened the door and beckoned to Xiang Luyang and the others behind him.
Entering the door, after Wu Ran saw the situation clearly, he said with a dry mouth: "Nima, do you want to be so pitted, why do you have to make a labyrinth in every ancient tomb, don't these ancients have any other ideas?" ”
Luo Tianwu said: "You are creative, when I die, my tomb will be built by you, and I will see what flowers you can see." ”
Wu Ran smiled and said: "You are dead, even if I build flowers, you can't see it, you still live well, and then we will study the matter of building a tomb together." ”
Looking at the two people who didn't take this maze seriously, Gao Biying said, "You guys aren't worried about not being able to get out of this maze at all?" ”
Wu Ran said: "Why worry? Anyway, I won't go, it's useless to worry, it's better to relax, maybe I'm in a good mood, and maybe I'll be able to get through at once. ”
Gao Biying was silent for a while, he didn't expect Wu Ran's nerves to be so big, I really don't know whether to say that he is a master of art and bold, or that he is ignorant and fearless.
Xiang Luyang waved his hand, signaled Wu Ran to shut up, and then said to Jin Bao: "Have you ever seen this situation in the tomb before?" ”
Jinbao shook his head, "I've only seen similar maps, and I haven't actually walked through them. ”
Turning back and forth at these entrances for a while, Xiang Luyang tried to find Li Shan's traces of their entry into the labyrinth, but after looking for a while, Xiang Luyang gave up, I don't know how Li Shan and them did it, all the entrances here, no trace of anyone entering or exiting was found.
