Chapter 274: Secret Path

I looked at the compass that had fallen to the ground, and the pointer pointed firmly at the jade figurines in the coffin in front of me.

Now the priority is to find an exit and get out of this hellish place as soon as possible.

Long Tsai helped Uncle Nine up and took out the water bag from his backpack and fed him a little water.

Uncle Nine woke up little by little, but when he found that the jade hand hidden in his sleeve was gone, he was instantly speechless, and his head hung down and he was silent.

I said at this time, "There is no need to mention the old things, let's find a way to move the jade figurine first and see if there is an exit under her body." ”

The jade figurine in front of him was wearing a golden mask, revealing three points of demonic evil, and the little white face proposed to use a shroud to lift it out of the coffin, as long as the human skin did not touch the jade, it would not cause the strange woman in his mind.

This method sounds quite feasible, but what I didn't expect was that this jade figurine was so heavy.

The little white-faced fat man and I tried our best to lift it up a corner, and we could faintly see the black hole hidden under the jade figurines in the light shrouded in the torches.

What's even more weird is that at this time, a crisp cracking sound suddenly came from the hands of the little white face holding the feet of the jade figurines.

The entire jade figurine was instantly covered with tiny cracks, as if it was about to disintegrate.

I ordered it to be stopped, who knows if there would be any strange danger hidden in this jade figurine, and the three of them slowly put the jade figurines back into the coffin.

Suddenly, I felt a nudge from behind me, and when I turned around, I saw a woman in yellow who was flushed with anxiety and kept gesturing to me.

I couldn't figure out what she was trying to say, but suddenly I noticed that the high platform and even the darkness behind me were covered with dense dark green eyes.

The green light shone in the darkness, and the faint green scales and indistinct faces could be seen in the light of the torches.

These things are exactly the "Kui" recorded in the mural, but the fat man once said that these things do not actively attack people.

I don't know why, after the jade figurines were destroyed, they began to surge in the dark, and the most terrifying thing was.

I seemed to see several humanoid figures showing half of their heads in the firelight, exactly the same as the appearance of the little white face and the fat ninth uncle and others.

If it weren't for the hideous and distorted turquoise scales on my face, I would have even begun to suspect that the so-called time-folding theory was in effect again.

When I was separated from Uncle Nine with Little White Face, the strange memories I experienced rushed into my mind, and it seemed that someone had cast a spell in this ancient tomb.

It is completely different from the outside world, and even time passes very quickly, but after the death of all the "people" who look exactly like us in the ancient tombs, they have temporarily returned to normal.

The words of the little white face with a mole on his face still seem to echo in my ears, and if I don't escape quickly, I will probably be lost in this labyrinth of ancient tombs forever.

Seeing that the torches around me were about to burn out, I held the ancient sword in my hand and looked at the broken jade figurines in the coffin in front of me.

"Could it be that these are because they are afraid of the jade figurines in the coffin, so they don't dare to come forward, and now that the jade figurines are broken, there is no threat."

I don't know why those warlocks made these things by mistake and let them live forever in the tombs to breed.

Or rats, like the rats, these scaly monkeys are a means of protecting the tomb and killing intruders.

I watched the monsters huddle in the darkness, their green eyes staring at everyone like ghosts.

He then picked up a fragment of the jade figurines with his sword and threw it into the darkness, only to find that these monsters covered in scale armor began to snatch them frantically.

even bared his sharp teeth and kept biting his kind, the scene was both bloody and extremely weird and terrifying.

"Could these monkeys also know the secret of immortality, that's why they started to rob the jade figurines?"

The little white face stared at the almost crazy group of shadow monkeys in front of him, and the blood shed by Kui was almost the same as that of humans, and the bright red color almost dyed the high platform.

"There's movement inside the iron coffin."

At this moment, to everyone's surprise, the black iron coffin covered with rust next to it suddenly trembled.

As if something was about to come out of it, a stench of black water flowed faintly from the crack in the coffin.

This scene really scared Uncle Jiu a lot, he seemed to think of something, the cold sweat on his forehead flowed down and his lips trembled slightly.

"Fine... Boy, let's run for our lives. ”

"If you don't run, it's too late."

Seeing that the black iron coffin was trembling more and more, even the ropes bound to it were faintly showing signs of breaking.

I finally stopped hesitating when I held the ancient sword in my hand, and stabbed at the jade figurine in the coffin.

I didn't expect the whole crystal clear jade figurine to become more subtle as the crack became more subtle, and the sound of jade shattering echoed in my ears.

Streams of bright red blood poured out of the stone figurines, and these red liquids really looked like human blood.

An extremely unpleasant smell burst out, and then the monkeys below the high platform finally couldn't hold back anymore and began to climb desperately upward.

Beneath the coffin where the jade figurines lay flat was a square black hole, which was splashed everywhere with chalcedony residues.

These kui behind him all had humanoid faces, scrambling to lick and eat the scum of the jade figurines splashed everywhere.

"Smack."

The nylon rope tied to the black coffin finally broke under the tremendous pressure, and under the light of the torch that was about to be extinguished, I could faintly see a rotten palm poking out of the coffin.

The palm of the hand was covered with scales, but it had five fingers like a human, and at this time, the stench of black water faintly saw rotten bones peeking out of the flesh.

With this scene alone, it's hard for me to imagine what exactly was inside the coffin.

But as more and more people climbed the high platform in front of them, these broken jade slags didn't seem to be enough for them to eat.

The dark green light of many of the monkeys stared at us closely, and from time to time they bared their sharp teeth and wanted to bite at us.

"It's bad, these monkeys must think that we also drank the blood of Concubine Jin, and now we have become Tang Sanzang."

The fat man suddenly realized that this point in front of him seemed to him unexpected.

When he turned his head, he found that Uncle Nine had already gone through the secret passage hole in the coffin, and recalled the frightened expression on his face when he saw the black coffin trembling.

I suddenly felt my scalp tingle and felt a little uncomfortable.

"What are you doing? Come on. ”

The fat man snorted violently, pulled up the little white face and the dragon boy with inconvenient legs and feet and got into the coffin secret passage little by little.

I held the ancient sword in my hand across my chest, and forced Kui, who was eager to pounce, step by step, until the fat man closed the lid of the wooden coffin halfway.

Only a gap half a meter wide was left for me to pass.

I saw that everyone else had evacuated safely, but the group in front of me was lingering like a ghost, and I suddenly remembered that the jade hand stolen by Uncle Nine was still wrapped in a strip of cloth in my arms.

I took it out without hesitation, this hoodoo may cause some trouble around me, immortality is just a distant foolish dream of the ancients.

Rather than being able to live in this tomb for thousands of years, it is better to experience the ups and downs of life outside.

The moment I touched the jade hand, the strange woman with the golden mask poured into my mind again.

She lowered her head as if she wanted to whisper something to me, but the sound of my jade hand being smashed by me vanished in an instant.
