Chapter 82: Outwitting the Key, the Sarcophagus Treasure
Han Xi looked at the line of text on the sarcophagus, still didn't know what it was implying about, it was better to leave it alone for now, and he would slowly understand it later, and see what secrets were hidden in it first.
Han Xi tried to push open the lid of the sarcophagus, but it seemed to be sewn together with the coffin, no matter how Han Xi pushed it, he couldn't push it, and Yuan Xiu came over to help pull it without moving, Han Xi tried several times without success, so he looked around the sarcophagus to see if there was any mystery like a mechanism.
Yuan Xiu lay on the sarcophagus and took the opportunity to sleep for a while, it smelled that familiar breath was inside, but now it could only wait, because this sarcophagus was so weird that it couldn't be pushed away, as if there was no lid itself.
Han Xi looked around at the sarcophagus, looking down from top to left, from left to right, but he didn't find any mechanism. Han Xi fell into contemplation again, he tried to recall the god of tomb robbery that he had watched on TV before, thinking about the storyline of the coffin opening inside, and wanted to find a clue from here, but it was useless, the structure of the sarcophagus this time was too complicated, and he didn't know which god made it, which was comparable to the coffin of the god against the sky.
Han Xi saw that many methods didn't work, so he fortunately leaned on the sarcophagus and wanted to take a break, but this one actually relied on the method of opening the coffin, Han Xi's elbow accidentally wiped a layer of plaster on the sarcophagus, when he raised his hand, he was pleasantly surprised to find that there was a key mouth on the sarcophagus, he took out a strip of cloth to wipe off the things around the key mouth, and this wipe wiped out the secret again, which really shocked Han Xi's eyes, and he tried his best to find a way, but he didn't expect to find it inadvertently, It's really unintentionally planted in the willows.
There is also a complex rune formation drawn around the key mouth, which looks very profound, it must be a taboo formation to prevent tomb robbers from opening the coffin, in addition, there is also a line of regular script on it: The opener, the deep coffin beast, Han Xi came to the spirit for a while, and finally found a way to open the sarcophagus, he was happy and secretly happy for himself, and Yuan Xiu had already fallen asleep at this time, completely unaware that Han Xi had discovered the method of opening the coffin.
"The Opener, the Deep Coffin Beast?" Han Xi meditated on this sentence, thinking to himself what it meant, if it was an ancient text, it would be translated as "The thing that opened the sarcophagus, in the depths of the sarcophagus beast?" Sarcophagus? Tomb Guardian Beast" The more Han Xi thought about it, the more mysterious he felt. If there is a guardian beast hidden in the depths of this cave, then there will be a battle to be fought, and only by defeating it can you get the key, or after snatching the key, you can take the opportunity to leave the mountain and lure it out and take the opportunity to open the coffin and take the treasure and run? Han Xi thought of many ways to deal with emergencies.
And now the first thing he has to do is to find this so-called sarcophagus beast, if he understands that sentence correctly, then there is a sarcophagus beast living in the depths of this cave, whether it is true or not, he has to try, so he woke Han Xi up and prepared to break in to see if there is really a sarcophagus guardian beast.
"Yuan Xiu, get up, a big guy has appeared, we have a task" Han Xi shook Yuan Xiu vigorously, Yuan Xiu was suddenly surprised, his eyes were in a trance, and then he put on a disgusted look at Han Xi.
"After the mission is completed, the grilled fish feast," Han Xi said tempting Yuan Xiu.
"Really?" Yuan Xiu immediately became energetic when he heard that there was a barbecued fish banquet, "What task, let's talk about it, finish the work and go back to grill the fish" Yuan Xiu couldn't wait, moving his hands and feet everywhere, ready to do a big job at any time.
"All we have to do is look for the sarcophagus beast inside, find the key, and then open the sarcophagus, I've found a way to open the sarcophagus, right there, there's a key opening" Han Xi pointed towards the sarcophagus, Yuan Xiu glanced in the direction that Han Xi pointed to, there was really a key opening.
"Then let's go," said Yuan Xiu and Han Xi and began to walk towards the cave inside, the structure of this tomb is basically based on the design concept of a cave in the road, a small passage is connected to a round hall, and then there is a passage from the round hall to another round hall.
Han Xi and they walked inside with torches, and after a while, they saw a bright light coming from the front, Han Xi and they hurriedly trotted over, and when they ran inside, they were stunned! What caught their eyes was a giant beast that was sleeping soundly, Han Xi and the others hurriedly extinguished the fire, for fear of alarming it, besides, the light here was very sufficient, and they didn't know that the light was reflected from it, although it was dark outside at this time, it was still very bright here, far from the previous round hall.
It is sleeping on the round platform in front of it at this time, its size is huge, its body is two meters long, and his face looks very terrifying, round head and big ears, sharp teeth and sharp teeth, the whole face looks fierce and vicious, like the gluttony of the four fierce beasts in the Book of Mountains and Seas, its feet are very distinctive, and the front left foot is tied with a confidential sleeve, presumably put on it by the designer, which is likely to be the key to open the sarcophagus.
Han Xi and Yuan Xiu talked cautiously in a whisper, for fear of waking it up, they planned to get the key in their hands without knowing it, and then sneak out to avoid a fight with it, this guy is a bit difficult to fight, covered in stone armor, and extremely defensive.
After discussing with Yuan Xiu, Han Xi decided to let Yuan Xiu go to get the key, because Yuan Xiu is now small and flexible, and it is not easy to be found, while Han Xi is relatively large and has a large shadow, coupled with the friction sound of shoes walking, it is easy to wake it up, so Yuan Xiu is still suitable for this plan to explore and retrieve things.
Yuan Xiu cautiously paced forward, because Yuan Xiu was too petite, so it could walk under the sight of the sarcophagus beast, so that no phantom would appear in front of its eyes, and it could sleep peacefully.
Yuan Xiu finally came to the back of the sarcophagus beast, Han Xi's nerves were tied tightly, more nervous than when he watched the league game, the sweat on his face was more than Yuan Xiu's, Yuan Xiu did not look afraid at all, and boldly made all kinds of grimaces in front of it, which made Han Xi's heart hang again and again.
Suddenly, the sarcophagus beast turned over, this time Yuan Xiu was stunned, the last second was still in the hurry, the next second it was lying on the ground, and whispered, Han Xi looked at it over there and his heart was about to jump out, thinking that the sarcophagus beast woke up, fortunately it was just a false alarm, it just turned over, and it was not a big problem.
Yuan Xiu saw that it didn't wake up and regained its previous domineering, it can really bend and stretch, Han Xi thought about the scene of Yuan Xiu just now, and suddenly laughed in his heart, Yuan Xiu saw that Han Xi was laughing at himself, and suddenly felt a little unhappy, and after throwing a black face at Han Xi, he began to act seriously again, after all, this is not a place to fight, if you are not careful, you may wake up this big guy, it is better to be safe.
Han Xi simply sat down with Wang Xuanjian on his hand, looked at Yuan Xiu intently, ready to defend at all times, and at this time Yuan Xiu had already turned to the front of it, but here it encountered a problem, that is, when the sarcophagus beast turned over just now, it happened to lie on the leg tied with the secret sleeve, which made Han Xi and them fall into passivity, and now they can't take it at all, they must let it turn over again, but it is not an easy task to make this giant beast turn over.
Yuan Xiu saw that he didn't have a chance to make a move, so he quietly slipped back to Han Xi's side.
"Han Xi can't do it, I'm suppressed by it, I can't do it" Yuan Xiu said in a low voice, looking helpless.
Han Xi fell into thought when he heard this, or he would directly knock it down, trap it while it was sleeping, and then take the opportunity to pick up the key and run out.
Han Xi came to the Spirit Sea again, at this time Fuzun was resting in the Sea of Stars, and when he saw Han Xi coming in, he knew that there was something to do.
"What's the matter, boy, I'm in trouble again," Fuzun asked nonchalantly.
"Master, do you have the kind of formation rune that can trap the demonic beast, we found the key to open the sarcophagus, but there is a sarcophagus beast guarding it, we can't get it, so we came to find the master to give some charms" Han Xi came up and explained the reason.
"Take it, this is the trapped beast rune, as long as it is attached to it, it can temporarily lose consciousness for a few minutes, remember that the effect of this rune is very short, you have to leave as soon as possible, otherwise you will be chased and killed by it, the sarcophagus beast has an additional 50% defense bonus in the tomb, so you must fight quickly" Fuzun said solemnly.
"Yes, Master, I'll go first, your old man will continue to sleep" Saying that, Han Xi took out a trapped beast rune out of thin air and put it on its body in person, while Yuan Xiu waited at the entrance of the hall.
Han Xi walked over cautiously, and every step was extremely careful, for fear of alarming it, and then it would be solved without even posting the charm. Han Xi walked in front of it, made a grimace at it, and was about to paste the charm on it, when a pair of eyes suddenly looked at Han Xi, Han Xi also looked at it, and then said hello and stuck it hard, and stunned the sarcophagus beast that wanted to get up.
"Oh, it's so dangerous, it's almost cold, just because I looked at it more in the crowd" Han Xi patted his little heart, breathed slowly, and then reached out and took off the bag on his left foot, sure enough, there was indeed a key inside, Han Xi was surprised, and quickly ran out and rushed to the sarcophagus, Yuan Xiu also followed, at this moment time is life, you must open the sarcophagus as soon as possible and then stow the treasure and run away, otherwise it will be difficult to walk out when the guy wakes up.
Han Xi inserted the key into the hole, waiting for it to really open, suddenly the sarcophagus shone with light, the coffin lid slowly opened, and a beam of light came out from inside, which made Han Xi and them feel very shocked, they couldn't wait to know what was hidden inside.
When the sarcophagus lid was opened halfway, the entire round hall was filled with the light of the stars, which was very charming, Han Xi and Yuan Xiu looked inside, and there were two things in the sarcophagus, a treasure box and a mirror, and the glow was emitted from the box. Therefore, Han Xi speculated that this should not be a burial coffin, but a sarcophagus where the relics were stored, because there was no body in it.
Han Xi reached in and took out these two things, and when he opened the box, a beam of light came into view, "This is the Star Soul Fragment" Han Xi called out in surprise, at this time, this Star Soul Fragment was still shining, almost exactly the same as the one last time, there was a book under the Star Soul Fragment, Han Xi put the Star Soul Fragment into the ring, and picked up the book, the title of the book was "Nine Heavens and Stars".
