Chapter 289: Closing the Tomb

A second before I was completely unconscious, I watched as the blood-stained symbols on the stone plate seemed to float away in the water.

Immediately after that, he was completely sucked into the hole in the wall.

When I woke up again, there was silence around me, and in front of me was an empty stone room.

At the front of the stone chamber was built a half-meter-high platform, on which the black rumbling was blurred, but it seemed that something was standing on the stone platform.

And I was at the other half of the stone chamber, and the dark stone chamber in front of me, which was only a few dozen square meters, was half a high platform, and the other half was a pool.

I couldn't help but wipe the water droplets on my face with my hands, only to feel unbearable soreness, and the fat man didn't know where he was washed by the current.

Not to mention how Uncle Nine and Long Tsai are now.

It wasn't until I was on my stomach on the edge of the pool for a while that I gradually regained some strength and crawled a little bit to the dry part of the stone room.

The man-eating black fish is still fresh in my mind, and I don't know if it will be a threat to others.

The stone chamber in front of me doesn't seem to belong to the scope of the ancient tomb, to be precise.

The traces of excavation here appear to be very frustrating, and the marks of the ancients have left pits on the wall, which are full of irregular patterns.

And I gradually walked towards the high platform, and finally saw a huge black sarcophagus standing on the stone platform.

This coffin is quaint and unpretentious, just the periphery of the sarcophagus is two or three meters long and one and a half meters wide.

There was no lighting in the stone chamber, but the light was good, and I sat on the stone platform and thought about what might happen if the team found me and the fat man missing.

The map is in the hands of the little white face, and he may find another way to escape, or if he is lucky, the fat man may escape from the pool.

At the moment, he was left alone, and the oxygen tank behind him was completely knocked out underwater, and it seemed that there was no effect.

Before I knew it, I felt a chill sweep over my body, and I couldn't help but want to take off my rubber wetsuit and start a fire, but I was afraid that there would be a chance of life.

Doing so by yourself is undoubtedly cutting off all retreats.

Besides, the oxygen in the stone chamber is thin, and it is estimated that it will not be long before I feel suffocated and deprived of oxygen, so it is better to live a little longer by freezing than this.

I couldn't help but look down at the stone chamber, the masked wound on my face still aching inadvertently.

At this point, I suddenly remembered the corpse that looked exactly like my godfather, and became even more interested in this strange mask.

Vaguely, I seemed to remember that Wu Laogou had also worn such a similar patterned mask when he was 800 meters underground.

There are bursts of ghostly light under the simple and unpretentious patterns, and after wearing the mask, it seems that the messenger walking in the underworld is responsible for coming to the world to seduce the soul and ask for his life.

I remember saying that his mask was taken off from a high priest in a Xiangxi tomb, along with a red robe and drum.

Later, the corpse of the Xiangxi ancient tomb also became the corpse king of Xiangxi, and that time was also the most embarrassing one since Wu Wenju's downfall.

At the moment, this ancient tomb seems to be full of mysteries, and the jade statues in the sarcophagus can indeed have the effect of immortality, but the price to pay is extremely heavy.

Immediately afterwards, we actually found the corpses of Zhong Gu's troops in the tomb, all of them had died in the ancient tomb for more than ten decades, judging by the guns.

These people should have come from the warlord period,

In those chaotic times, a mysterious army had come to the island in disguise, as if looking for something.

My throat was a little ticklish, and I knew it was my addiction to cigarettes that was about to happen again.

I've been determined to quit smoking since my lung cancer miraculously recovered, but whenever I encounter confusion or frustration, I can't help but take a few puffs to relieve my tense nerves.

The scene of the little white face taking out the diagnosis notice in front of me still echoes clearly in my mind, and I don't seem to have heard the word schizophrenia for a long time.

I only remember that when I was with Xiaoyue, I went to the hospital for a review several times, and the results were all unexpectedly better.

I couldn't help but close my eyes and recall Xiao Yue's figure, at this time I finally stopped running away and faced it calmly.

Maybe it was really Xiao Yue's departure that stimulated me too much, but the memories of the scenes in the ancient tomb and the scars on my body seemed to have happened in real life.

If it's really a hallucination caused by my own mental disorder and a malfunction of the watch, how did the injuries on my body come about?

As I thought about it, my mind seemed to have reached a dead end again, and I held my breath to stop thinking about it, but suddenly I heard a crashing sound in my ears.

"Smack."

"Smack."

The voice was muffled and came from the high platform behind me, and I subconsciously looked at the sarcophagus.

With a vague inference from the senses, the sound really seemed to come from inside the sarcophagus, and it was accompanied by an inexplicable rhythm.

In an instant, I almost raised my heart to my throat, and I was the only one left in the empty stone room, and such a strange situation was happening in front of me.

Even if it is a fat man who is as bold as a fight, I am afraid that he will be frightened when he encounters this situation.

The sound of heavy pounding echoed in the stone chamber little by little, and even caused the black water on the pool to jump together.

I couldn't help but take a gentle step towards the sarcophagus on the high platform, only to feel the sound getting closer and closer to me.

This sarcophagus seems to be full of weirdness at this time, and the patterns on it are blurred, but it can be seen that there are many patterns similar to oracle bone inscriptions.

I can't help but recall some simple common sense about history, oracle bone inscriptions first appeared in the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Shang Dynasty, and were mostly used for sacrifices and divination.

The current appearance of oracle bone inscriptions in the tomb of Concubine Jin in the Qin Dynasty is indeed a bit unreasonable, but recall the bronze human faces found in the ancient tombs.

There seems to be some connection to all of this.

The sound of knocking from the sarcophagus gradually expanded, as if someone inside was constantly knocking on the inner wall with stones.

I gritted my teeth and tried to get out of this strange place, but I was afraid that I didn't have enough oxygen, and if I couldn't find an exit underwater, I would be suffocated to death.

The heavy sarcophagus looked extremely heavy, and I tentatively pushed it with my hand, but I didn't expect that the whole coffin seemed to be full of humanity.

The lid of the coffin was actually buckled diagonally, and with my sudden push, a gap suddenly opened in the sarcophagus.

The voice seemed to be amplified at this point, and it came out of the coffin unabashedly.

"Smack."

"Smack."

I couldn't help but take two steps back, and I felt my whole body tremble.

I suddenly couldn't help but hesitate in my heart, do I still want to open the coffin completely?

If something pops up that ordinary people can't imagine, can your tense nerves still be able to bear it?

I could vaguely see a withered yellow and old animal skin in the sarcophagus, and if I wanted to continue to observe, I had to push the coffin open completely.
