Chapter 53: The Crossroads
At the same time as the coffin lid opened, a figure quickly came out of it!
When Gao Ying saw this figure, he almost couldn't believe his eyes!
Ji Yixuan!
He's alive!
Gao Ying was also very surprised when he saw that he was still alive!
He immediately ran up and grabbed Ji Yixuan, and then they also ran to the door in the back!
He naturally doesn't have time to ask Ji Yixuan how he survived now, in short, it's good to be alive!
When Gao Ying pushed through the door again...... Finally, the door can be opened!
Gao Ying, Ji Yixuan, and Jiao Chaoming immediately passed through this door, and then closed the door deadly!
Behind this door, there is a long and narrow corridor that is the same as before. The three of them continued to move forward along the narrow corridor, but it didn't take long for them to see a fork in the road ahead!
They couldn't help but look at the door behind them, the three of them were trembling at this time, who knew if the evil ghost inside the coffin would chase after them! But who knows where to run at the moment? If you accidentally trigger the trap of the tomb, the consequences are unimaginable. It's just that they don't seem to have much time to make a choice right now!
Crossroads...... There are three directions to choose from. Keep forward, left, or right?
Gao Ying glanced back behind him again, and suddenly saw a terrifying scene, the door behind was pushed open again!
But after opening the door, there is no figure!
There is no choice but to choose one!
Gao Ying chose the left!
Ji Yixuan and Jiao Chaoming didn't know why Gao Ying chose the left, but now they only chose to follow Gao Ying.
It's just that Gao Ying didn't notice it at this time, and in the passage on the right, there was a word "Ming" left on the wall.
Gao Ying and Zhu Sunling made ...... Diametrically opposite choices.
The three of them didn't know how long they had been running on the dark corridor, and when their physical strength gradually decreased, Gao Ying looked back, and there was no trace of anything chasing after them.
The three of them stopped to rest for a while, and at this time, Ji Yixuan just wanted to say something, but Gao Ying shook his head. He felt that in this ancient tomb, it was better not to speak as much as possible. As for how Ji Yixuan survived, it doesn't matter anymore, as long as he is still alive. Other things, when the exam is over, he can ask about it properly.
As for the reason why Ji Yixuan survived...... It's actually quite simple. He was awake when he was pushed into the coffin, and before the coffin was closed, he saw the fluorescent watch. And inside the coffin, in addition to him, there was also a corpse, and he immediately lit a match at this time to illuminate the exam paper, and filled in the answer on the exam paper!
Frankly speaking, Gao Ying also doesn't know if the path he has chosen now is correct, whether it will trigger the mechanism, or attract more terrifying evil spirits. But to be honest, what Gao Ying is most afraid of now is to fall into a place where there is no relevant answer on the exam paper, which means that there is no hope of survival. This is the most terrifying thing for Gao Ying.
After resting for a while, the three looked at each other, knowing that they couldn't drag it any longer. Oxygen is not endless, and the candle does not know how long it can continue to hold on. Now, they just have to move on and find a way to solve the final argument. In any case, it must be unraveled...... This is the most critical argument question, otherwise, when the time comes, what awaits them will still be doomed.
They can only move forward, even if they know that death awaits them in front of them!
At this time, on the top of the tomb, the remaining three people waiting, Shen Junhao, Cheng Ge and Lin Jia, were also anxiously waiting. But as time went on, the three of them began to become uneasy. After all, no one knows how long the three of them will stay down there, and they don't even know if they might even come up alive. In this way, Cheng Ge and Lin Jia gradually began to have other thoughts, after all, time is running out, and there are still very few exam questions they make, and if this continues, even if all the questions they do are correct, they will still not fail the exam.
Shen Junhao is actually quite guilty in his heart, at the critical moment, he, the person who survived by copying Gao Ying's answers last time, was at this last moment, not as good as Jiao Chaoming and Ji Yixuan, the two new candidates, who could not advance and retreat with Gao Ying. He has loved martial arts since he was a child, and he especially yearns for "the great man of chivalry, for the country and the people", if it were not for this, he would not choose to go to Shaolin Temple in Shaolin Mountain to learn martial arts. But now, in the face of death, the chivalrous spirit he longed for in the past could not be manifested in himself at all. This made him feel remorseful.
Shen Junhao looked at the unfathomable tomb, as well as the gloomy sky, and ...... That exam paper. He was suddenly a little worried, he just thought about waiting for Gao Ying to come up and sit back and copy his answers, would Gao Ying agree? You know, cheating is risking his life, and he wants to copy the answer without putting in the effort, is that really good? But now Shen Junhao is somewhat in a dilemma.
At this moment, Cheng Ge suddenly walked up to Shen Junhao and asked in a low voice, "I said...... Shen Junhao, Gao Ying, can they come up alive? ”
Shen Junhao was full of regret for Gao Ying in his heart, and Cheng Ge spoke so directly, which immediately annoyed him, glared at Cheng Ge coldly, and replied: "Gao Ying won't die so easily!" ”
After all, Cheng Ge is still too young and has shallow experience, and Shen Junhao is a straight-hearted person, so the topic can't go on. However, Cheng Ge also knew that time was running out, so he could only bite the bullet and cheekily persuade: "Okay, what I said just now is not appropriate, but you also know that it is definitely not a way for us to wait like this." So...... I mean, why don't we get ready and go out into the village and find a way to explore? ”
"No...... We have to wait here, and we have to pull them up! ”
"You...... Don't give up, we've been waiting here, it's useless? Besides, even if they come up, because they can't cheat, they can't tell us the answer, right? ”
After all, Cheng Ge didn't know the rule of skulls closing their eyes, so now, his first consideration was how to make this exam paper. Although he knew that the truth was likely to lie beneath the tomb, he still couldn't make up his mind. After all, if you really look at it, it will be a life of nine deaths. He felt that by exploring the village, there might be a way to find the truth. To put it bluntly, he doesn't care about Gao Ying's life or death at all. Calling Shen Junhao is nothing more than hoping that one more person will be by his side to strengthen his courage together, not to mention that Shen Junhao is tall and big, and staying by his side can also have a sense of security.
Lin Jia also came up at this time, she was timid, and she had no opinions, she didn't have the courage to go to the tomb. However, she now knows that the exam is coming to an end, and now her thoughts are similar to Cheng Ge's. As for Gao Ying's life and death...... She also feels that Gao Ying is afraid that she will not be able to come up alive from below. I don't dare to go down anyway, so let's go to the village and explore it again. So, she also echoed Cheng Ge's words: "I...... I also think Cheng Ge has a point, it's better for you to ...... Come with us to the village and look for clues. Now we can't do the final argument question, only when we get those 20 points, we can probably pass the test......"
Shen Junhao shook his head coldly and said, "I will wait here for Gao Ying and them to come back!" Definitely! ”
He knew that staying here and waiting to pull Gao Ying and them up was the only bargaining chip he could beg Gao Ying to copy the answer for him. He asked himself to change places, and if he changed him, he would never risk his life to let himself copy the answers. Ji Yixuan has saved Gao Ying many times, and what has he, Shen Junhao, done for Gao Ying? At most, he was taught a little boxing, but what was the use of it in this horrific exam scene?
"If you want to go, go away...... I don't send it! ”
……
Gao Ying, Ji Yixuan, and Jiao Chaoming once again saw a door appear at the end of the corridor.
This time, this time...... What will be inside?
Gao Ying stepped forward and pushed the door open, and lit the candle.
Then he saw ...... A white skeleton stood at the door like this!
