Volume 1 Wuling Qin Traces Chapter 7 A Skeleton
We jumped off the swaying boardwalk, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. No one should have been here for a long time, in front of the platform is a large stone table, corner by corner collapsed, and there is a small incense burner placed above, and Tuesday Mao said happily: "Look, Erwa, antique, antique!" ”
I'm happy too. There is no mention of this uncle's exploration notes, and I don't know where they crossed paths with us, so I guess we were the first to come here.
I took a flashlight and looked around, and there was a large stone door directly behind the platform, with two seals on it, and we didn't know each other. I rejoiced: "Ermao, we have estimated that we have arrived at the door of this ancient tomb!" ”
Looking back, on Tuesday, Mao had already put the incense burner into a woven bag. I was stunned for a moment and said, "Are you going to go in with such a heavy incense burner?" Haven't you seen it inside? ”
When Mao heard it on Tuesday, he put down the incense burner and said, "Then it's not too late to come out and get it." ”
We approached the stone door, the stone door was closed, we were worried that there was a mechanism inside, we didn't dare to push it directly, we checked at the door for a long time, and didn't find anything unusual, the two of them had the courage to push the stone door, I didn't want the door to be pushed open directly, not even the tombstone, although I felt a little strange, but we were still excited more than afraid.
When the stone door is pushed open, there is a tunnel carved out between the stones, a damp fishy smell comes to the face, the Xiangxi area is humid and rainy, walking in the cave has always been this indescribable smell, making people breathe extremely poorly.
The moment we walked through the road, I couldn't believe my eyes, a huge stone cave appeared in front of our eyes, in a huge karst cave, a large number of bronze columns carved with quaint Kui dragon ornaments are arranged in a certain direction, in the middle is a three-layer trapezoidal platform made of large stones, which is placed on a large bronze square tripod with a diameter of about 5 meters, and surrounded by bottomless cliffs, there is only a chain bridge around the stone cave leading to the platform.
We slowly explored along the cave, and suddenly Tuesday Mao grabbed me and whispered, "Get down, someone!" ”
Before I could react, on Tuesday Mao had already pushed me down, and I pulled out the pistol and looked nervously at the other side. On Tuesday, Mao said anxiously: "Flashlight, flashlight, turn it off quickly!" ”
I hurriedly turned off my flashlight. Suddenly I didn't think it was right, how could there be someone here? On Tuesday, Mao seemed to realize this and asked, "There shouldn't be people here, right!" ”
I asked, "What did you just see?" ”
On Tuesday, Mao said: "I see a figure moving on that stone wall. ”
I half-convinced, "No." Are your eyes spent?"
Tuesday Mao smiled embarrassedly: "I guess so." There's nothing wrong with being careful."
I turned on the flashlight and shone it towards the place where Mao said just now, and suddenly the shadow of a hand was imprinted on the stone wall, I was scared, quickly turned off the flashlight, and stammered: "Really... There's a figure. ”
Tuesday Mao's originally relaxed heart became nervous again, and said, "Are you sure it's not a statue or something?" ”
I said, "No, indeed... There was indeed a person who seemed to be still sitting. ”
Tuesday Mao said: "Who the hell is so Yaxing, sitting in this tomb and drinking tea?" ”
I also felt strange and asked, "If it were a human being, he should have found out about us earlier, why didn't he see a reaction for a long time?" Isn't it a dead man? ”
On Tuesday, Mao said: "Could it be that the owner of the tomb was not placed in the coffin, but... Sitting here can't be? ”
"That's too characterful, isn't it?" I wondered.
On Tuesday, Mao said: "I heard that the monk seems to be sitting when he sits. ”
"It doesn't matter, it's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided. Check it out! "I made up my mind that hiding was not an option. I turned on my flashlight, pointed my gun at the figure, and rushed over.
A strange scene appeared in front of us, in a small cave in the stone wall, a skeleton dressed in a black robe, with a long sword hanging from his waist, and his head full of long gray hair was half-kneeling on the ground, and the skeleton's hand bones were tightly clutched a metal cylinder inlaid with jewels.
I carefully took out the cylinder and looked at what looked like some kind of magic weapon, but I couldn't see anything for a while.
On Tuesday, Mao had already stared at the long sword, and before I could shout, on Tuesday, Mao pulled, and suddenly the skeleton spread out and collapsed, and we were startled, but fortunately there was nothing unusual. Tuesday Mao excitedly opened the wooden patent leather scabbard of the bronze sword, one or two thousand years have passed, the sword body is still intact, Tuesday Mao said happily: "This turtle knife must still be a good thing!" ”
I looked around and said, "Do you think this is an ancient tomb?" I don't think this place is like a tomb. It's like a place to do something French. ”
On Tuesday, Mao had already turned out the jade belt on the skeleton again. He smiled and said, "Why can't it be a tomb, isn't the owner of this tomb here?" ”
I shook my head and said, "I think it's a bit like a mysterious ritual in ancient times. ”
Tuesday Mao smiled: "You don't do archaeology, how many things do you dance, what kind of eggs do you do like a gentleman?" It doesn't matter what he sacrifices, it's an old generation anyway. ”
On Tuesday, Mao pointed to the platform in the middle with a flashlight and said, "It is estimated that there are still things on it, go over and take a look." ”
After saying that, he walked over to the chain bridge.
When we walked to the edge of the chain bridge, we saw that the wooden planks on the chain bridge had rotted a lot, and we grabbed the iron rope and walked tremblingly towards the platform in the middle.
On the platform, let alone the coffin, I can't even see some funeral goods, and on the empty platform, there is nothing but the big ding.
We walked along the platform a few times in disappointment, and Mao was really a little unwilling on Tuesday, but after weighing it, it was impossible to carry the possibility of carrying this big ding, I said: "It's almost there, let's withdraw." You have to find a place to get out, or you'll starve to death here. ”
Suddenly, Tuesday Mao shouted in horror: "Second baby, second baby!" Be careful, there are so many little bugs on the ground! ”
I took a flashlight to look at the ground, only to see a large number of small black beetles crawling up densely around the platform, and I couldn't see what kind of species, we hurriedly ran up the stone steps, the reptiles slowly surrounded us, we panicked, I remembered how to deal with bats, quickly took off my clothes, lit it and went to catch the insects. The insects were afraid of fire and did not continue to climb for the time being, but there were more and more insects around the stone platform, and the black pressure was terrifying.
At this time, I glanced at Da Ding in a panic, and suddenly saw that the black worm began to gush out of Da Ding, I was ruthless, tightened my trousers, pulled up Ermao and said: "Rush over, otherwise you will die here." ”
We squeezed a way out of the fire, and from time to time a small worm crawled up, and suddenly Tuesday Mao screamed and shouted: "On the back, on the back!" ”
I hurriedly went to drive away the worm on his back, only to see that the worm's teeth were extremely sharp, and they bit into Ermao's flesh raw.
On Tuesday, Mao screamed in pain. Finally, the two rushed to the chain bridge, and suddenly snapped, and the chain bridge was too old, and the wooden stakes on this side of the platform suddenly broke. The two of them fell from the platform facing the cliff.
We clung to the iron cable, suddenly a violent collision, hit the opposite stone wall, fell dizzy and almost did not carry the breath, was about to climb up along the iron cable, suddenly I found that there are a large number of beetles on the iron cable are climbing down the iron cable, suddenly Tuesday Mao screamed again, and was bitten on the hand again, I was below, busy asking: "Is there a problem, Ermao!" ”
On Tuesday, Mao shouted: "No more! What should I do? Second baby? ”
Suddenly there was another loud bang, and the stake on it broke, and before we could think about it, we fell into the cliff in the darkness.
