Chapter 385: Confused
The raging flames continued to engulf the apse, mixed with the roars of some small insects.
But there is nothing strange about this, the strange thing is that the flames on the top of the apse have not yet spread around, and the girder above the gate leading to the apse suddenly falls, directly blocking the way in and out.
And when the girder fell, the flames on the roof of the apse burned faster.
It seems that King Xian thought that someone would come to rob the tomb at the beginning, and then he designed this kind of linkage mechanism.
Otherwise, after the flame burns, the exit will not be sealed.
It can't be said to be a coincidence, if it is a coincidence, why don't the girders in other places fall, but the girder of the exit falls, and after the exit is blocked, the flame burns more violently.
However, Lin Chen didn't panic at all, anyway, they wouldn't be okay in this situation.
It's a big deal to bring Hu Bayi and all of them into the storage ring, and then wait for the flames to go out before coming out.
Lin Chen didn't think that this level of flame would be able to burn his storage ring.
"Damn, the exit is blocked." The fat man wiped the sweat from the flames on his body. "Lin Chen, where is your fucking Italian cannon, take it out quickly and blast the exit open, otherwise we will all be burned here."
Hu Bayi also wiped a handful of sweat slightly, and then said, "Fatty, what are you talking about?" Do you know the power of that infantry cannon? If we had fired an artillery shot at such a close distance, we would have been killed by infantry artillery before we were burned to death. “
"Panic." Lin Chen came to the door of the sealed apse and looked at it carefully. "Don't worry, we're not going to die here."
Sure enough, there is no desperate situation of ten deaths, only those who lose hope in a desperate situation and wait for death.
Lin Chen found that the wall of the entrance to the apse had a large stone wall raised due to the fall of the girders.
Before he could make a move, he heard a popping tower, and a large hole was knocked out of the wall.
Then the dragon head on the throne broke in at the front.
"Bang la la la~~"
The faucet began to pour mercury on the ground continuously, but fortunately Lin Chen flashed quickly, otherwise he would have been sprayed with mercury.
Seeing the mercury, Lin Chen was also a little difficult to do, and he didn't know if the mercury could be stopped.
After all, mercury is a poison, but it's not just a poison.
Looking around, Lin Chen felt that the only way out now was the top of the cave.
Because the structure on the roof of the cave is a wooden structure, it means that it is very easy to explode, and then it will be a way out.
However, if you blow up the roof of the cave, you should pray that the outside of the roof is not black stones, but a clear blue sky.
Because the apse was obviously built in a cave, but it was still necessary to pray, after all, it was impossible to wait here forever.
Lin Chen was not afraid of the flames, but if this place was filled with mercury, it would be difficult for them to get out even if they entered the storage ring.
"Alright, join hands, climb up the stone monument, and we'll leave this hellish place from the top of the cave." After speaking, Lin Chen ran to the nearest stone tablet, and slowly climbed up on the top of the stone tablet as soon as he jumped for life.
However, Hu Bayi and they didn't have such a good hand, so they could only climb slowly with their hands.
And Lin Chen didn't waste time, he directly hooked a grappling hook to a beam on the top of the cave that had not yet been burned, and then slowly climbed up.
But on the way, he leaned against the edge of the big red dress they had seen at the beginning.
Especially the dead man's head wrapped in heavy makeup hanging from it looked very weird, Lin Chen was really afraid that the head couldn't think about it and opened his mouth to give him a mouthful.
Lin Chen shot the little insect man when he was in front, so the dead man's head was still there, and it didn't fall to the ground.
Climbing onto the wooden beam, Lin Chen used the rope to pull Hu Bayi and the three of them onto the wooden beam on the top of the cave.
As soon as he was about to make a move, a burst of sad laughter came from where he was dressed in red.
Lin Chen looked down. Under the imprint of the firelight, he could see clearly this time.
It turned out that there was something in the lower body of the red robe, as if the head of the corpse had been preserved intact and the lower body had shrunk due to the passage of thousands of years.
However, Lin Chen still didn't understand why this thing made that kind of laughter, what kind of mechanism it was or because she was a big dumpling.
Lin Chen looked at it, and he was not interested, no matter what he was, even if it was a big zongzi, as long as they didn't move, they were all good big zongzi, and there was no need to pay attention to it.
took out a grenade, Lin Chen pulled the bolt, he planned to throw the grenade three seconds before it was about to explode, so that the top could be blown open.
But he had barely pulled the bolt for two seconds when he heard the fat man next to him shout, "Wormman, wormman is fucking coming up again." “
Stunned by the fat man's voice, Lin Chen didn't have time to think about it, and directly threw the grenade towards the insect man lying on the wall.
"Boom~~~~"
In the already very hot environment, there was a heat wave again, which made the four of them feel very uncomfortable.
", fatty, what are you yelling about, you can't kill a worm." Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately his reaction was fast just now, otherwise the grenade would have exploded in his hand.
"Hey, there's something out there." Shirley Yang pulled Lin Chen, and then pointed to the place where Lin Chen threw the grenade just now.
Lin Chen looked over, and it turned out that the stone chips on the wall of the place where he threw the grenade just now had fallen off, and a hole appeared in the middle of the wall that was not very big.
There was something in the cave, and in the light of the fire, you could see a halo of light circulating on it.
Hidden things are generally important key props and cannot be given up.
So after thinking about it, Lin Chen gave Hu Bayi a grenade, "Old Hu, you go and get the roof of the cave, if you can't get it, blow it up with a grenade, I'll go get that thing." “
Taking the grenade, Hu Ba nodded, and then began to crawl towards the top of the cave.
Lin Chen followed the girder to the wall, estimated the distance, and then tied the rope to the girder and jumped down towards the wall.
It just so happened that the rope was tight, and Lin Chen was just in front of the hole.
Without thinking much about it, he reached out and put the contents into his storage ring, and then Lin Chen climbed back along the rope.
There was more and more mercury in the apse, and the stone tablet where they landed in front of them had been submerged.
At this time, a ray of sunlight shone in from above.
Lin Chen looked up and saw that it was Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang who had already opened a skylight on the top of the cave with a sapper shovel.
Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and then crawled upward.
In a moment, all four of them crawled out of this damn apse.
Lie down on the roof outside and take a break.
At this time, the sun on the horizon had already come out quite high, which meant that they had been entering the Heavenly Palace for a long time.
Looking inside the skylight, the flames inside had been extinguished, after all, the flames had been covered with so much mercury that there was no air to extinguish.
Moreover, the mercury has not increased since the girder, and it seems that the stored mercury is out of stock.
"Phew, I thought it was only fire, but then I don't have to be afraid." Lin Chen couldn't help but smile and said, "I didn't expect the king to be so yin, and he actually made so much mercury that he almost couldn't run out." ”
"yes, I didn't expect there to be this chain of mechanisms in the apse." Hu Bayi also smiled, "By the way, what's inside the last wall?" Hidden so tightly, there must be ghosts. “
Sitting up cross-legged, Lin Chen took out what he had gotten in the small hole.
It turned out to be a jade letter, the jade letter was wrapped with several turns of gold rope, the jade color was simple, a little bit of red spots, and it was an antiquity thousands of years ago at a glance.
Seeing Yuhan, the fat man suddenly said, "Wouldn't this be the dust bead we were looking for?" ”
"Impossible." Shirley Yang directly denied the fat man's idea, "According to the description, the dust bead is a round bead, and this box is flat, it is impossible to store the dust bead at all. ”
Lin Chen took the jade letter and observed it carefully, this jade letter was tightly closed, it seemed that there was no special means, and it really couldn't be opened.
Unless using legendary stunts ---- violently picking locks.
However, after thinking about it, Lin Chen still denied this idea, after all, who knows what is in it, if there is any self-destruction mechanism, it is difficult to say.
