Chapter 51: Enter
The thief cave is bottomless, and it is narrow and cramped, and the four of them can only bend down to barely enter, because the slope is very steep, Mu Lan has to pace forward carefully so as not to fall.
Mu Lan was the last to enter, glancing back at the cave that was gradually moving away, and as the visible light weakened, she would enter an environment completely cut off from the surface world.
This is the afterlife world carefully designed by the tomb owner, where the living have a good status and wealth in the world, and want to continue to have it after death, which is a bridge between life and death.
After walking for about fifteen minutes, only a small point of light could be seen at the entrance of the cave behind, Zhao Ziyu was a little afraid of the dark environment, his hand holding the strong flashlight was trembling, and he whispered: "It's so deep down there." ”
"At least 30 meters underground!" Mu Lan said that she had read the information of the underground palace several times, this was a huge tomb, and the depth would naturally be very exaggerated.
"I don't know how long I want to stay down, to be honest, I'm a little claustrophobic......" Zhao Ziyu said and stopped, and Lin Yiyi in the back patted him impatiently.
"Hurry up! Big men are still afraid of the dark, you look at your captain. ”
"The key is not that it's black or not...... Zhao Ziyu said: "When I think of that kind of thing below, I am a little stunned, this is not as good as the last copy, at least I know how I died." ”
"The human-faced ghost can't break through my spiritual power shield, you can get closer to me in a while." Mu Lan comforted.
Zhao Ziyu nodded, holding back his fear and continued to move down.
Speaking of fear, Mu Lan is not not afraid, but the habit she has developed since childhood makes her not expose this emotion, in the past, even if it was hard and difficult, she always pretended to be indifferent with a straight face, after all, she has no family to rely on and no object of emotional catharsis, for example, now as a person in the palace, she naturally thinks of some scenes in horror movies, such as "Don't Look Back", when you turn around, you will see the long-haired female ghost, and all kinds of weird possibilities flashed in her heart, such as what if someone suddenly put her hand on her back, What should I do if someone shoots myself......
Just thinking about it, a gust of wind suddenly blew from the ground, Mu Lan felt a chill, and at the same time became strange, it stands to reason that the air flows into the ground from the entrance of the cave, how can this blow up from the ground for no reason?
"Giggles!"
Thinking about something, Mu Lan felt a strange laugh of a woman not far behind her, and her hair immediately stood on end, and she immediately looked back, but behind her was a pitch-black hole that stretched upward, and there was nothing.
"What's wrong?" Lin Yiyi, who was in front, saw that Mu Lan stopped, and the wind element gathered in his hand was an attack posture, so he asked out loud.
"Did you hear that...... Laughter? Mu Lan said slowly.
"I rely on you not to scare me!" Zhao Ziyu cried with a sad face, "Is it so exciting just after going to the tomb?" ”
Lin Yiyi shook her head and said, "I didn't hear it." ”
asked Shi Zhengyang at the front, but he didn't hear it, Mu Lan frowned, could it be his own delusion?
After repeatedly confirming that there was no abnormality, the team continued to go down, but the more Mu Lan thought about it, the more wrong it became, and she always felt that she had missed something, and there was obviously a detail in the picture just now that was wrong.
What is it? Mu Lan thought about it and turned back again, and now she finally understood that something was wrong, and she immediately stopped the team.
"What's wrong?" Shi Zhengyang asked.
"Look at the back!" Mu Lan moved half of her body so that her teammates could see the scene behind.
When they looked back, they saw that the hole where there was still a point of light was gone, and only a narrow cavern sloped upwards until it was submerged in the endless darkness.
Originally, the light outside was getting weaker and weaker, and it almost disappeared at this location, and everyone didn't notice it because they were flashlights, but Mu Lan was thinking about the laughter just now, which caused this detail to almost be ignored.
Lin Yiyi's flashlight swept to the back, and the light hit the soil layer in the distance, and said strangely: "It doesn't look like it's been sealed, it doesn't seem like there is no hole in the first place." ”
Now the situation is extremely strange, the thief hole they entered is gone, and the four of them seem to enter the tunnel out of thin air, there is no entrance, only the front that leads to the endless darkness.
"What to do? Do you want to go back? Zhao Ziyu whispered.
Everyone was silent, the current situation was that the arrow had to be sent, and it would be difficult to escape the ghost shadow when he returned to the ground, and the source of the curse was likely to be below, Mu Lan would not give up this opportunity.
"Go ahead, I said that this kind of copy is illogical, and I'm not surprised that anything happens." Shi Zhengyang said: "Keep going down, let's see the move, don't forget that we still have excavation equipment." ”
Zhao Ziyu didn't say more, the atmosphere was dull, and he walked with difficulty for about thirty minutes, the hole in front of him expanded a lot, and the road disappeared.
Shi Zhengyang shone a flashlight downward, and through the hole hole, he could already see the internal structure of the dungeon, faintly visible the walls and some bronzes inside, and the team finally arrived at the inside of the dungeon.
Shi Zhengyang took out a cold fireworks stick and lit it and threw it down, the hole was about eight meters from the ground, he observed that there was no danger, and then took out the rope ladder in the carry-on space, fixed one end in the tunnel, and threw the other end down.
However, he himself did not climb down the rope ladder, but jumped directly, and the height of eight meters was nothing to this physically strong man.
Eight meters of height can also be tried for Mu Lan, who has been strengthened by musculature, but she still honestly climbs down the rope ladder, and if she jumps down, it will be worth the loss.
The strong flashlights of the four people are all turned on, coupled with the cold fireworks sticks that were dropped before, although the whole picture of the underground palace is not clear, but you can also get a glimpse of a corner, this is a wide underground palace, according to Wang Chuan's information, this is the main hall, the length and width are 50 meters, it is a regular square space.
Mu Lan's flashlight swept away, and suddenly found a row of figures in front of her, everyone was startled, and they took out their weapons one after another, and Lin Yiyi shot an explosive arrow directly at the row of figures.
The explosion sounded, and under the burst of fire, Mu Lan saw clearly that it was a row of warrior figures, and this arrow directly exploded the stone statue into broken stones and flew around.
"A false alarm, a false alarm!" Lin Yiyi put down her bow and arrow, held her chest and sighed.
Mu Lan felt that the atmosphere in the dungeon had changed, the light of the flashlight flashed, and a cold and malicious feeling invaded her, and she immediately pulled Lin Yiyi over and released the spell [Sal's Shield] at the same time.
A shrill laugh suddenly sounded in the dark and empty dungeon, as if mocking the intruder, and then the entire space was instantly filled with a terrible wail.
Countless black ghosts hovered in the sky, and for a moment the ghosts cried wolf like hell.
