Chapter 115: The Mural
I dragged my legs, which were almost numb, and the green tendons on my forehead burst out, and I desperately pulled Xiaoyue to flee around.
However, the light source around him was really limited, except for the huge stone sword pillar in the center of the tomb, the surrounding area was already shrouded in darkness shrouded in fear.
Until something suddenly stepped under his feet, a crisp sound was heard, and a gap in the blue brick wall faintly moved from the oncoming stone brick wall, revealing an arrow like a spear.
"Not good."
I screamed and pressed Xiao Yue beside me to the ground, only to feel the terrible sound of breaking the air above my head.
More than a dozen spears with sharp steel tips pierced straight into the "big zongzi" who was chasing after him.
The corpse was already wearing armor, and its skin became harder when it was covered with fine hair, but even so, it was difficult to compete with the power of the most dangerous giant crossbow in the ancient tomb.
The two "big zongzi" wearing battle armor were shot in pairs by sharp spears, and the incomparably foul black water gushed out along the punctured wounds, flowing everywhere on the ground.
And the only one left seems to be not lightly injured, and half of the head with the iron helmet has been shaved off by long hair, revealing a black ** like paste.
"Don't cry, don't cry... It's all gone.... ”
I stretched out my hand to comfort Xiao Yue, who was crying in my arms, and the crisis in front of me passed like this, but I never thought that the sound of the gear machine hidden in the wall would be clear in my ears.
The huge stone pillar in front of me seemed to be shaking faintly, as if the tomb was about to collapse.
I desperately took her hand and hid in the southeast corner of the tomb, after all, even if there was a collapse here, there was no way to escape, but it was safest to stay in the corner.
Until the huge light accompanied by the smell of the mermaid candle burning shook my eyes, and the scene in front of me completely turned my perception upside down.
Xiao Yue, who was trembling in her arms beside her, also seemed to be completely stunned by this scene, it turned out that this tomb was actually so big that we couldn't imagine it at all.
Next to the stone pillar that I had just climbed stood a huge stone statue of the general that was dozens of meters high.
He turned his back with one hand behind his back, and with the other hand, he held the quaint sword-like stone pillar like a giant in the sky.
The carefully carved lines on the eyes make it look less intimidating and more lifelike.
And the high walls of the tomb are full of grooves with merfolk flowing everywhere, as long as the five soul lamps on the stone pillars warm the air to a certain temperature.
It will be lit along with all the mermaid candles, and the entire huge tomb will be illuminated.
"TM's... It's spectacular. ”
I took a sip on the ground and didn't care about the blood that was faintly visible in the black phlegm, and then I suddenly realized that the size and grandeur of this ancient tomb seemed to be second only to the Japanese fortification at a depth of 800 meters more than ten years ago.
The scenes of the past are vivid, and the deep abyss seems to hide the end that humanity can never reach...
I slowed down and took Xiao Yue's hand and walked to the other side, only then did I suddenly see that there were four medium statues in armor hidden behind this huge statue of the general.
They held the long knives at their waists and faced in all directions, and although they were a few meters shorter than the stone statue of the general at the head of the group, there was an aura of intimidating anger between their eyebrows.
“… It's shocking. ”
Xiao Yue beside her finally came to her senses this time, looking at the long stone carvings in front of her that seemed to be able to subvert history, and gradually ignored the fear in her heart.
Touching the delicate patterns on the details of the stone statue, this pair of handicrafts is like a carving from heaven.
It's really hard for me to imagine who could have carved such a spectacular sculpture at that time, and even today it would take more than ten years to do so.
What's more, the era when a civilized country had just been established was terrifying.
The mermaid candle burned in such a wide range that it illuminated almost the entire corner of the tomb, but I seemed to ignore the emptiness in the middle of the four stone statues of the retinue behind the general.
It's just that I vaguely found that the back of the stone statue was inlaid with huge rusty chains, each of which was half a meter thick, and if it was estimated, it would probably weigh more than a ton.
The four chains converged in the middle, and as I followed the direction of the chains, I climbed a little bit over the stone steps at my feet to the center of the four stone statues.
In front of me was the back of the huge stone statue of the general, and above the head was a piece of black pressing, I don't know what was hanging.
"It's... It's a coffin! ”
I vaguely discerned the outline from the angle, and finally came up with such a result.
The silhouette in the darkness was square, tightly suspended in mid-air by four chains converging from the south, east, west, and north, and it seemed that the length of the giant coffin alone exceeded five meters and the width was more than three meters.
I'm afraid that there is a goblin living in this TM, otherwise how could he be buried in such a huge coffin after death.
Looking at the huge sarcophagus in front of me, I couldn't help but feel a sense of timidity in my heart, but I still had to look for the exit.
There are many terrible mechanisms here, and if you stay a little longer, you may definitely die innocently because of a certain detail.
The air in physics was originally a little damp and gloomy, but as the merfolk rose, the temperature seemed to gradually reach its peak.
After only a while, even the air was mixed with a heat wave, and with the sudden discovery of Xiao Yue beside me, I almost thought that something terrible was happening again.
"Nerd... You see. ”
She took my hand with some horror and excitement, and stared at the huge wall in front of her, which was originally empty of blue bricks.
But with the constantly warming air, a mural was refracted little by little, and Xiao Yue and I next to me looked at the scene in front of us dumbfounded.
When I turned around again, I found that the entire burial chamber was faintly infiltrated with murals created thousands of years ago, and I couldn't help but look at it for a long time, and carefully distinguish that it should be six neat murals.
The six pictures have different meanings, and it seems that each one has its own profound meaning, even Xiao Yue next to him was stunned.
I didn't dare to disturb her, so I had to look at the closest picture in front of me and speculate to myself.
"This first one looks very simple, a general in battle armor."
He was described as a man of great courage, and at this moment he stood in front of a magnificent city gate and raised his arms and shouted, although he was only a simple person, but he was full of momentum, as if he had already surpassed the magnificent ancient city.
I looked at the scene in the mural and looked up at the huge stone carving, and I couldn't help but be amazed.
This is more than the person in the painting, maybe it is the huge stone statue in front of you, not only is it imposing, but even the heroic spirit emanating from the eyebrows is very similar.
The second and third pictures are not much different from the old man found on the lid of the coffin.
It's just that this time the fairyland depicted in the painting is more magnificent, and there is a birthday star holding a fairy peach in his hand stepping on the auspicious clouds.
He held Shou Tao in one hand, but with a smile on his face, he gently stroked a sarcophagus in the picture, the giant coffin was simple and unpretentious, and the delicate and complex lines were carved on it.
The most conspicuous thing is the huge chains, which bind the coffin tightly, revealing full of evil and weirdness, as if they were afraid that the contents of the coffin would jump out.
"Shhhhh
When I saw this, I couldn't help but look back at the huge sarcophagus suspended in the air by four chains, and I couldn't help but chuckle in my heart.
If it is calculated in this way, then the mural and the scene in the stone chamber can be combined, but I don't know who the owner of this coffin is.
Looking at the burly stone statue before his death, it seems that he should also be a general of the Yuan Dynasty, who was buried in the mountains of Xiangxi together with the four most loyal subordinates after dying on the battlefield.
I watched Xiao Yue next to me staring at the fourth picture and frowning all the time, but suddenly remembered the three "big zongzi" that were shot through by a giant crossbow.
Then, with cautious steps, I approached the black pool of blood little by little, and I forced my inner heartbeat to get so close to this evil thing for the first time.
The pungent smell evaporated in the air, and I was afraid that the smell was hiding toxins, so I tore off a large strip of cloth from my torn clothes to cover my mouth and nose.
Until my feet stepped on the black viscous juice, I seemed to faintly see the three unlucky "dudes" through the dim light, not completely dead.
Just fell in a pool of blood and shivered, and the eyes in the black hole hole were quietly staring at him.
"Ren Er and the others were rich and prosperous all their lives, but after their deaths, they are just harmful demons and a pile of rotten bones."
"Don't be a lonely ghost that reverberates in the tomb, find a good person to reincarnate in the next life."
I looked at the three corpses and couldn't help but feel a feeling in my heart, and then took out the lighter from my arms, wanting to set the three corpses on fire to help them overtake them earlier.
"You... Whatever you're doing, the toxins in the dead body are all over the air. ”
Xiao Yue's shouting behind me hurriedly stopped me, and I thought to myself that what the big doctor said must be very reasonable, so I immediately dispelled such a stupid idea.
But just when he wanted to turn away, he vaguely found that the nearest corpse had a shining gold medal hanging from his waist.
With my intuition, I seem to be able to feel that it is made of pure gold, according to Wu Laogou's words, I am destined to be gold, and I was born to fight inverted.
Secretly thinking that since he entered the ancient tomb for so long, he has not even found half of the so-called antique artifact, although he has no intention of coveting it.
But it was a little unreasonable for him to come out empty-handed, so he bent down little by little with slow steps.
The gold medal felt a cold chill in his hand, followed by a delicate sensation that the ancients were able to dig gold but did not have the technology to purify it.
Although in the later Ming and Qing dynasties, some clumsy methods were also used to remove other metal impurities hidden in the gold nuggets.
However, the piece of gold in my hand seemed to be full of weight, and in the dim light I could see the Yuan Dynasty characters carved on the back of the gold medal.
It's just that the front of the brand is polished to an incomparably smooth like a bronze mirror, faintly reflecting golden light in the light.
