Chapter 165: Nine-toed human legs
It is precisely because the material of these seven transparent coffins is different from the refractive index of water that it creates an underwater visual effect that seems to be distorted and dreamy.
But what worries me more is that if these seven transparent things are really coffins, then we should be able to see the owner of the coffin lying in it directly through everything.
And not to see through at a glance as it is now, nothing.
Could it be that these coffins were empty from the beginning?
Or is it that the contents have already come out?
In fact, if you think about it carefully, it is obvious that the second kind of speech is more reasonable, if you don't plan to release people in the coffin in the first place, then why did you go to such great lengths to build them in the first place, and even equipped a so-called Hall of Eternal Life for this purpose.
"Sister Huang, it should be a few transparent coffins."
Huang Yuwen nodded but didn't show too much surprise, presumably he had seen this from his previous observations.
She first looked at the walls on the left and right sides with a flashlight, and after making sure that we had no other way but to go forward, she said with some discouragement: "There should be no road on either side, and if we want to find your brother, we must pass through these coffins." ”
"Are you scared?" I saw that her little face was a little pale and asked.
But Huang Yuwen was much more honest than I expected, she first shook her head, and then nodded calmly, "I'm afraid, but I'm not afraid of monsters or anything." I was afraid that someone would get hurt on this trip, and I was afraid that when we went out, we wouldn't be able to cure my aunt and sister. ”
Actually, that's exactly what I think.
"Wu Yan, what should I do next? I've never been in this situation before, and now I'm up to you, an experienced employee, to do the work. ”
I didn't want to be too serious when I heard her joke, so I immediately teased back, "Then light a candle in the northeast corner first, and you have to keep an eye on it when you open the coffin for a while, if the candle goes out, you have to stop and leave, and it is the iron law of our industry that the rooster cries and the lamp is not touched." ”
Huang Yuwen slapped me with a smile, "You rob the tomb!" ”
But jokes aside, the road still has to go, and our plans are as simple as they are, even a little idiotic.
That is to go all the way forward, straight through this Hall of Eternal Life, and then find the exit rescue tank.
After I finished talking about this extremely pure plan, Huang Yuwen said that it was too simple, and there was no backup arrangement at all, but I asked her to think that she couldn't come up with a rule, so we held our arms and held a flashlight and stepped on the cold water and went straight to the mountain gate.
As I walked along the road, I imagined that since this place was called the Hall of Eternal Life, it would make sense that there would be a palace inside.
So if we can pass through here smoothly, then there is a high probability that we will see a historical site left by the ancients, and I am really a little excited when I think about this.
After all, the funeral halls I had been to before, except for a very large gate and a dragon bridge, I had really not seen any particularly spectacular scenes.
If we think that under the ground, a tall and majestic palace stands in front of our eyes like a giant, which will be a precious memory that will be deeply imprinted in our minds for a lifetime.
But if we saw the crumbling corpse in the jar in front of the palace, it would be another angle that would be enough to imprint me in my mind for the rest of my life, and I couldn't help but speed up my pace when I thought about it.
Before I knew it, we were directly below the mountain gate, and this thing was not shocking from a distance, but once I was at its feet, I also felt an indescribable sense of oppression.
We didn't stop too long, we continued to walk, and after a few steps, we reached the area of the transparent coffin, and my heart began to beat uncontrollably faster.
As I got closer, I could see clearly that the lids of the coffins that were closer to us were all turned to the side without exception, and at first glance it really looked like the contents of the coffin pushed open the lid and ran out, which also invisibly flashed through my mind countless inexplicable and all kinds of terrifying plots.
"Look!" Just as I was thinking about it, Huang Yuwen called me.
Looking in the direction of her finger, I noticed that there seemed to be something in the first coffin, just four or five meters away from us on my right.
It wasn't a human, it wasn't a monster, it was black and round, but because it was under the water, and it was disturbed by the ripples of our walking, I really couldn't see its thickness, and I couldn't see what it was.
"Plates?" I muttered.
Huang Yuwen nodded slightly, "It's very similar, do you want to go and see it?" ”
I rushed into Huang Yuwen and rushed over, and quickly grabbed her, "Don't be impulsive, let's take a look at the other coffins first, in fact, these things are not very important, we can completely ignore them." ”
I convinced Huang Yuwen, and she pulled me on, not caring about the disc anymore.
After a dozen or so steps, we had already looked at the four coffins, and nothing of value appeared except for the disc in the first coffin on the right hand side at the beginning.
But what we saw at the beginning were seven coffins, three on the left and three on the right, and one was left alone.
The coffin was far away from us, and it was placed in the middle.
As I got closer and closer, I gradually realized that the coffin was not empty, but because of the distance and the dim light, it looked like an empty coffin from a distance.
We stopped about ten paces from the seventh coffin, shone our flashlight, and I saw a pale blue thing in the tube.
The blue color is very light and very light, and it's no wonder that we didn't even notice it in the water at first.
"What's that?" Huang Yuwen asked.
I didn't see it for a long time, I just thought it looked like a person wrapped in something, but it didn't look like a person, because it was so thin, and the mummies weren't that thin.
I was also annoyed after staring at it for a long time, so I shouted that Huang Yuwen can't do it, let's go around, no matter what kind of thing it is, as long as it doesn't get up and bite people, it's a good thing.
My suggestion was accepted, mainly because we were both a little scared, so we headed to the left front, but we didn't go too far, because we both wanted to see what it was.
Human curiosity is like that, and sometimes even life is not as important as it.
When we finally got to the side of it, I could see that it was actually a human leg.
The right leg of a pale blue man with nine toes.
