Chapter 146: Entering the Underground Palace The sarcophagus hides secrets
Chapter 146: Enter the dungeon sarcophagus to hide secrets
Xiao Xiong looked at everyone's disappointed and sad looks, and couldn't help laughing. He jokingly said:
"What's the matter, brethren? Is it that if you don't get rich, you can't be a rich man, so you're unhappy? ”
Li Minghua said depressedly: "Commander, you said that those people died in the poisonous smoke, but we searched all the places and found no devices?" Has Old Man Jin taken care of him for thousands of years in vain? There is no treasure in this cave! ”
肖雄 says:
"If we look at the gold and silver treasures alone, we don't seem to find anything. But the ancestors of the Jin family have been committed to the family for generations, and they have persisted to this day. Their spirit is worth emulating. Moreover, from the coffins of the four ancestors of the Shu family, didn't we see their writings? That in itself is priceless. Take 10,000 steps back, if it weren't for Old Man Jin who brought us into this cave, I don't know what the situation would have been. It doesn't matter to us whether there is treasure or not. ”
He paused, looked at his watch, and the hour hand was already pointing to 9 o'clock in the evening, and then he said to everyone:
"We escaped a danger here, and the devil somehow grasped our whereabouts so clearly and in a timely manner, and it is possible that Abe's trick is repeating again, and the enemy has begun to track us again."
He said to Wang Xiaofei, Li Minghua, and Liu Junshan:
"The three of you will take someone to help Jin Biao carry in the body of Old Man Jin and bury it in the sarcophagus prepared by their Shu ancestors. Let his old man rest in peace and be with his fathers forever. ”
Everyone walked in slowly carrying the body of Old Man Jin, and Jin Biao cried all the way and followed behind everyone. Everyone came to the second stone room, Li Minghua and Liu Junshan walked to the sarcophagus with a few people, and everyone pushed the heavy coffin lid to the side together. And then. In Jin Biao's heartbroken cry, he gently put the body of Old Man Jin into the sarcophagus.
Xiao Xiong ordered loudly:
"All kneel! Do three bows and nine prostrations! ”
Everyone knelt in front of the sarcophagus in three rows.
"Cover-coffin! Daddy Kim goes all the way! Good way! ”
"Wow-" Jin Biao got up from the ground crying and rushed to the sarcophagus like crazy. Everyone hurriedly hugged him tightly.
Several team members stepped forward and prepared to push the lid of the coffin, and they slowly pushed the lid up with Jin Biao's howl.
Suddenly, only a sound of "quack" was heard, and everyone was stunned by the scene in front of them, and they were shocked to see that the sarcophagus was slowly sinking to the ground.
Jin Biao, who was crying, also suddenly felt that the sarcophagus was sinking, and he shook off everyone and threw himself on the sarcophagus desperately. The sarcophagus that was slowly sinking, because Jin Biao suddenly pounced on it, suddenly accelerated and sank down, and Jin Biao suddenly sank into the ground.
Immediately afterwards, with a "quack" from the ground, a stone slab was turned up, which just made up the position of the sarcophagus, and even the texture was almost closed, it was simply seamless, and if you didn't look carefully, you really couldn't see the gaps in it.
Everyone was momentarily flustered by this sudden change, and some of the team members lay on the ground trying to find an exit to the underground. And more to look at Xiao Xiong, Xiao Xiong also looked at this change in surprise.
Before everyone could come to their senses, there was a sudden "quack" sound from another sarcophagus next to them, and it stopped after a while. Everyone looked at the sarcophagus in amazement, and didn't know what to do for a while.
Xiao Xiong asked everyone to open the sarcophagus, but they didn't find anything abnormal, and it was still empty. Xiao Xiong walked around the sarcophagus a few times, but found nothing.
It was still Li Minghua's boldness, and he suddenly jumped into the sarcophagus. Suddenly, the lid of the sarcophagus slipped down and covered the sarcophagus. Before everyone could figure out what was going on, the sarcophagus sank like the one in front of it, and a stone slab flipped up.
Everyone was feeling incredible, and suddenly the sound of "quack" sounded from behind them, and everyone looked back to see that the sarcophagus that had just sunk had risen again.
This is simply unbelievable, appalling, without any movement, the two sarcophagi have inexplicably risen and fallen.
Everyone rushed to the sarcophagus that rose up, opened the lid of the coffin, and the old man Jin who was lying in it just now and Jin Biao who was lying on the coffin disappeared together.
Xiao Xiong thought about it for a while, and also felt that it was too unusual. So, he walked over and prepared to sit himself in the sarcophagus.
Jiang Donghai took the lead and climbed into the sarcophagus. Said:
"Let me go and sit on it first, I'm going to look for Brother Minghua and them. Let's close the lid of the coffin. ”
Xiao Xiong had no choice but to nod, and everyone pushed the coffin lid up. Sure enough, after the sarcophagus made a "rattling" sound, it slowly sank into the ground carrying Jiang Donghai.
Then, Xiao Xiong turned to look at the place where the sarcophagus was parked on the other side to see what would happen.
Soon, the stone slab on the other side shook slightly, and a "quack" sound came from the ground, and the stone slab turned over, and the sarcophagus rose again.
When everyone was still stunned, suddenly, the lid of the sarcophagus suddenly slid and opened automatically, only to see a person turn over from it and sit up.
Liu Junshan pounced: "Li Minghua! It's Li Minghua! Why did you come out again? ”
Li Minghua smiled and took Liu Junshan's hand, jumped out of the sarcophagus, he punched Liu Junshan, and said with a smile: "Why, you still curse me that I can't come back." ”
Then, Li Minghua hurriedly came to Xiao Xiong, who looked puzzled, and reported the situation to him just now.
It turned out that as soon as Li Minghua jumped into the sarcophagus and lay down, the lid of the sarcophagus suddenly slipped over, and he felt that it was dark in front of him, and he couldn't see anything. Then, with a "quack" sound, he felt the sarcophagus suddenly fall down.
Although the time for the fall was not long, Li Minghua, who was lying in the sarcophagus, felt extremely nervous, as if he had stepped through a space of life and death. With a "click", the sarcophagus stopped falling and seemed to stop.
Li Minghua pushed the lid of the coffin hard, and found that a dazzling light appeared in front of him, and he saw a person standing in front of the sarcophagus with a torch in front of him, which startled him.
"Brother Minghua, don't be afraid, it's me." A familiar voice came, and Li Minghua looked at it intently, it turned out that the person with the torch turned out to be Jin Biao, who had fallen earlier, and he didn't expect him to be alive.
Li Minghua jumped out happily, hugged Jin Biao at once, and slammed it a few times. After letting go of Jin Biao, Li Minghua asked anxiously:
"Brother Jin Biao, are you okay?"
"It's okay, you see, isn't that good?"
"How did you get down? What about Daddy? ”
Jin Biao sighed and briefly explained how he came down.
Jin Biao lay on top of the sarcophagus at the moment it fell, his hands tightly grasped the edge of the coffin lid, and his body was tightly attached to the coffin lid. The sarcophagus began to fall more slowly, then faster and faster, and all I could hear was the whirring wind.
Fortunately, the time of falling was not too long, and when it was almost to the ground, the sarcophagus trembled a little, and then slowly and steadily fell to the ground.
Jin Biao fell from the sarcophagus, and there was only a very faint light in front of him. He quickly took out a match and struck several times in a row before striking. By the light of the matches, he spotted some firewood next to the sarcophagus. He hurriedly lit one with a match, only to find that it was a pine oil torch. He lit several more in quick succession and stuck them in the ground.
It was only then that he looked around and realized that the sarcophagus had fallen into a deeper underground cavern. The sound of running water can be heard not far away. He estimated that there must be an underground river nearby.
The cave was very large, and there were several openings in it, and I don't know where they lead. At first, Jin Biao was still a little scared, but when he saw that his father was still lying in the sarcophagus, he quickly opened the sarcophagus and hugged his father out.
However, I never thought that as soon as I took my father out and put it on a relatively flat ground, the sarcophagus rose again, and after a while, not far away, another sarcophagus fell.
Jin Biao then ran to the sarcophagus with a torch, only to see that the lid of the sarcophagus slipped open, and a person sat up inside, holding the torch and seeing, it turned out to be Li Minghua.
The two were figuring out the secrets of the sarcophagus, and the sarcophagus made another "quack" sound and began to slowly leave the ground.
Li Minghua didn't think about it, he jumped directly into the sarcophagus, and after a while, he returned to the ground.
After Xiao Xiong heard about it, he couldn't believe his ears, Li Minghua's experience was like a fantasy, too legendary. It was only at this time that he finally figured out the secret of the sarcophagus.
But now he didn't bother to talk about it first. So, he ordered everyone to take turns to sit in the sarcophagus, and the two sarcophagi carried everyone, and in this way, the whole special combat team went down to the cave.
Jiang Donghai took the first step down, and he and Jin Biao lit more torches and inserted them on the stone walls and ground of the cave around the sarcophagus, illuminating the cave very brightly. This cave is even grander and more magnificent than the one above. The strange stalactites, under the light of the torch, are crystal clear and beautiful, and the forms are different, some are like dragons soaring, some are like peacocks opening the screen, and some are like roosters crowing...... It's simply beautiful.
After everyone came down, Xiao Xiong explained the principle of the sarcophagus up and down to everyone.
The cave above and the cave below are both formed from lava. In addition to the infiltration of the springs, the main contributor to the formation is the underground river that is still flowing not far away. A long, long time ago, due to the infiltration of rainwater and the action of underground rivers, a strange two-story karst cave was formed here, and there should be many caves in the caves below.
When the craftsmen of the Shu family were building the cave above, they accidentally discovered the secret that there was a hole under the cave. However, this secret is known only to a very small number of core figures. So, with the help of the terrain, they opened up these two layers of caves. Because the entrance to the cave is not large, they set up two sarcophagi according to the terrain, and installed a lifting equipment similar to a wheel, as long as one of the sarcophagi landed, you can start this peculiar lifting form up and down, making it very convenient to go up and down.
"Wow! The ancients were so clever! All the people could not help but marvel at the wisdom of the ancients.
"If my guess is correct, this is the real treasure of the Shu family." Xiao Xiong said categorically.
"The Shu family placed two empty sarcophagi in the cave above, and according to common sense, ordinary people would not lie in the sarcophagus at all, and then put the lid of the sarcophagus on. In this way, it is impossible to touch the mechanism of its lifting, and it is impossible to discover the secrets under the sarcophagus. We put Daddy Jin into the sarcophagus, and after the coffin lid was closed, the mechanism had actually been touched, and Jin Biao lay on top of the sarcophagus, so that the mechanism that had been slow to start due to the age was activated all of a sudden, and the sarcophagus quickly landed. If Li Minghua no longer sat in another sarcophagus, he would not have found this strangeness. In addition, Jiang Donghai lay down in the sarcophagus again, and the smart Li Minghua rose up again, so that I completely understood the secret of the sarcophagus. ”
Xiao Xiong's words completely dispelled everyone's doubts about the sarcophagus. When everyone took a closer look at the sarcophagus with torches, they admired Xiao Xiong's analysis again.
Everyone was looking around for the Shu family's treasures.
Suddenly, Jiang Donghai shouted in surprise not far away:
"Commander Xiao, come and see!" (To be continued.) )
