Chapter 42 Stone Gate Monster Corpse
Late at night.
Outside the underwater stone gate.
I put the key into the hole in front of the stone door, twisted it hard, and didn't respond.
Not yet?
I pulled out the key, picked up the small iron file, and polished it against the key marks on the plaster.
Try again.
It was repeated more than a dozen times before I heard a rattle and the stone door rumbled away.
A stone staircase ascends in front of you.
After all, I shrank my head and looked around before tiptoeing up the stairs.
After not taking a few steps, the stone door behind him slammed shut.
It was pitch black.
Click...... Click......
Fortunately, I had been prepared and lit the torch I had brought with me with a flint.
As soon as the lights were restored, I went to find the mechanism that opened the door.
I searched for a long time but didn't find it.
Well, it seems that we can only move forward.
Going up the stone steps, the torches burned the layers of cobwebs, and the smell of dust was always in the air, and I don't know how long no one had been here.
At the end of the stone steps was a wooden door with copper nails, the wood had rotted, and powder fell when it was pushed.
There is a lot of space behind the door, and the torches can only illuminate a short distance, and there are many shadows inside, and there seems to be a lot of things.
I dangled the torch from side to side and noticed a groove in the left wall, and I knew what it was for, so I leaned over it.
Laugh at......
A flame spread along the groove, and twenty-four pine torches lit up on the wall one after another, and the last spark fell in mid-air, and with a bang, an iron-framed fire cage burst into flames, illuminating the whole place.
It turned out to be a rectangular hall with twelve pillars on both sides, and a stone throne protruding from the top.
I saw those shadowy things before, and they were all corpses!
The corpses have turned into skeletons.
In addition, there are four passages on the left and right sides of the palace hall, and there is a shadow wall behind the throne, which seems to have a way to go.
I took a closer look at the corpses and found that they had all died fighting each other, and that the weapons they used had long since been rusted.
Heck, it seems like a place with a story.
I have no intention of studying the deeds of these ancients hundreds of years ago, but the key is those passages.
Will there be a way out of this Tianzhu Peak?
I decided to explore one by one.
Start with the left side first.
Light up the wall lamps in the passage, and under the flickering firelight, I can see that there are a large number of skeletons lying here and the hall as well, and because of the narrowness of the passage, almost every step has to step over the corpses, and I am terrified all the way.
At the end of the passage, there was another wooden door with copper nails, and two spears poked at it.
With a slight push, the wooden door crashed to the ground, raising a large amount of dust.
I quickly covered my mouth and retreated, but something caught my heel, and my center of gravity suddenly lost and I fell backwards.
With a snap, a skeleton was crushed.
Phew, phew.
I jumped up and shuddered, feeling goosebumps crawling all over my body.
People with slightly fragile nerves may have gone crazy at this time......
Belch?
I jerked my head back.
The passage was quiet, and the copper-covered wall lamps on the wall flickered on and off, dragging strange shadows.
A broken spider's web slowly drifted down the corner.
Was it blown up by the wind?
After waiting for a while, there was no other abnormality.
I patted my chest and comforted myself: it will be fine, it must be psychological.
Turn your heart to the side and keep going.
Passing through the doorway, there is also a wide space in front of you, in which there are many shadows, needless to say, many dead people.
It's just that the number and density of these dead people make my scalp tingle.
That's too much, isn't it?
What's even more strange is that most of these corpses are standing, with their faces facing the doorway, as if they are looking at me in unison.
I swallowed a mouthful of saliva and wanted to turn around and leave.
No way!
How can you be scared away by a corpse, so you can see what is going on inside, right?
I took the plunge and lit the ignition groove in the wall.
There are no campfire cages like the halls, but the torches are still well lit.
As the fire lit up, I couldn't stop laughing or crying.
Although there were a few skeletons inside, the 'corpses' that stood densely packed turned out to be just a pair of armor, erected on wooden shelves.
These are iron armor, as well as countless leather armor, wooden armor, and cloth armor, layered on top of each other, piled up, and capable of equipping at least tens of thousands of people.
It's a big armory.
If this weren't some antiques from hundreds of years ago, I'd suspect that the forces behind Sister Longhair were plotting a rebellion.
I was a little surprised and a little disappointed.
Check it out somewhere else!
Walk through seven passages in one go, each of which is connected to an armory, which stores swords, guns, swords, crossbows and arrows, as well as shields, saddles, tents, grease, and gunpowder...... There were even a couple of siege ballistae in the corner.
Of course, after a long time, it is basically scrapped.
Eighth Channel......
As soon as I stepped inside, I noticed that there was something unusual about this passage.
First of all, there were a lot of dead people on this road, and there were several more iron gates, which were open, but they were obviously pryed open.
This place is particularly well defended, why?
At the end, a heavy iron gate blocked the way.
I saw a skeleton slump on the door, with a rusted blade stuck in its back, the handle of which had long been rusted and fell to the side.
My palms were covered with sweat.
So many people desperately wanted to enter this warehouse, and the contents hidden in it must be amazing.
Holding back the nausea, he pulled the skeleton apart.
My eyes lit up.
The iron door was locked, but the black iron key was inserted into the keyhole.
I thought that this skeleton brother should have taken out the key and was about to open the door, but before he could twist it, he was stabbed in the back and died of anger.
Hey, it's cheaper for me now.
The lock was jammed tightly, and I turned the black iron key vigorously, and there was a crunch and the lock pin jumped slightly.
Fortunately, I'm really afraid that the inside of the lock will rust, or the key will be twisted directly.
Slowly pushed open the iron door, and a golden light shone in front of him.
My eyes widened.
I don't need lighting, I already know what's hidden inside.
Gold and silver!
There were a large number of wooden boxes stacked in the storeroom, and several of them had their lids open, revealing the colors of white flowers and golden flowers, and no matter how heavy the dust was, it could not hide the dazzling light.
Got rich.
My saliva flowed: With this treasure house, what else to go to Qizhou? Looking for an eagle talon door?
Since then, there have been groups of wives and concubines......
Ka!
Ka! Ka! Ka!
A series of strange noises behind me pulled me out of my fantasy.
Who?
My neck suddenly felt cold, and I felt someone staring at me.
When I turned my head to look at it, I almost scared my pee.
I saw that on the wall of the passage, a skeleton was swimming quickly, and the bones all over the body clicked!
