Chapter 11: The Corpse Cave Crisis

There was a "click" like the sound of ice cracking, the sound was subtle, but it was like thunder in the dead silence of the ice cave.

"Not good." An Yan spun sideways and threw me aside.

"Boom" impartially, I was thrown in the middle of the two ice coffins, An Yan swept down the fat man incredibly, and then kicked the icicle with his foot, and the figure who fell to the ground on the ice quickly retreated.

After Duanmu Qiankite heard the sound, he had already dodged behind the giant icicles.

"Whoosh" Countless sharp arrows flew out from the opposite cliff wall, leaving a small hole in the ice after a few moments.

Sharp arrows, arrows are triangular, with fine thorns, such as umbrella bones, and it is difficult to pull them out (out) after being shot into the human body, and when they are pulled out, the fine thorns will spread out like umbrellas.

The design is exquisite, the structure is complex, and the craftsmanship is a must.

"It's so ingenious." Duanmu Qianyuan looked at it for a long time and couldn't help but praise.

"Here I estimate that it should be the sixth layer, and there are three floors below, the area of each layer increases from top to bottom, forming a tower, the pagoda town demon, it is not that this is according to the design of the town demon tower." I suddenly thought of something, but I couldn't tell how I thought of it, as if it were ...... It was as if the amnesiac suddenly remembered something, and I couldn't say it clearly, because I had never had amnesia, let alone studied the design of the tower. And, at this time, a picture appeared in my mind, a structural diagram of the nine-story Demon Town Tower.

"Hey, those who say that adventure is like a tour of the mountains and rivers are liars, this is obviously playing with life." The fat man sighed for no reason and said to himself.

"I'll try, you guys stand back and hide." Duanmu Qiankite was a little anxious and eager to try. An Yan dragged her and shook his head at her.

"No, since you can trigger the mechanism, there must be a way to close it." An Yan's words were like an initiation, and everyone slowly calmed down, looking for all suspicious places.

The heyday of the mechanism can be traced back to more than 2,000 years ago, and everyone is even more familiar with the Three Kingdoms period Zhuge Liang built: Trojan Horse Niuliu, Zhuge (Lian) crossbow.

If the Wuhou Technique is an entry-level work for the public to understand the Technique, then the even more magical Mojia Technique is the official entry into the palace of the Technique.

"Han Feizi Waichu Says on the Left" contains: "Mozi is a wooden kite, which is made in three years and defeated in one day." And what everyone is familiar with is the Mojia organ: Moshou, which is used to defend the city.

For example, it is recorded in "Mozi Beicheng Gate" that the outside of the car is covered with iron, and part of it is buried in the ground, which is a machine that can project charcoal fire, which is used by many people (grass) to defend against the enemy's siege team, and is called an ancient tank in modern times. It is recorded in "Mozi Beicheng Gate" that the transfer machine is also a large transmitter placed on the city wall, six feet long, and is vertically composed of two people (grass), and the ballista is different in that the transfer machine is more (flexible), and can rotate the frame by another person while one person shoots arrows.

Scouting wooden kites, training puppets...... Wait a minute.

However, everything known outside is like child's play, and the real trick is in the Mojia Organ City......

I was just thinking about the story of the Mo family's organ city that the old man told me, when I was suddenly interrupted by An Yan's voice, "Look there, there's a pattern in the ice-covered place." ”

We looked in the direction of his light, and sure enough, we saw a strange pattern around the corner.

"I'll take a look." An Yan took out the wolf claw and put it on his hand, the wolf claw is made of stainless steel, with built-in hooks and claws, which can be attacked and defended.

An Yan tried it on the ice wall with the wolf's claws, and with a slight force, the "click" wolf claws hooked through the ice and firmly grasped the rock wall.

"I'll go, it's a good thing. Duanmu, if you have anything more, give me a pair! "I looked at Duanmu Qiankite with a pitiful look.

"After I go back, I'll find you a pair from the stall, just this pair of wolf claws is still my grandfather's face, and the Ou Ye family made it. Although Duanmu Qiankite was talking to me, her eyes were firmly fixed on An Yan.

An Yan's body is very light, more than ten meters high, more than ten zhang away from the strange figure soon arrived, "bell bell" he hammered the ice hard, an ancient pattern appeared in front of him, the rock wall was inlaid with bronze, and it was already glowing with faint green rust.

An Yan tried many times, but the bronze pattern did not move as if it were born on the rock wall. He wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, as if he had a lot of physical exertion.

"An Yan, you try a 45° angle." I shouted, when I was with the blind old man, I heard him say: The ancient cassette structure is generally at a 45° angle, and it must be opened with skill.

There was a sound of "click" inside the mechanism, and the countless small holes in the rock wall slowly closed, as if those arrow feathers had not been shot just now.

Just as a few of us breathed a long sigh of relief, there was a loud "boom", and the mountains shook in the ice cave, the ice cracked, and some small icicles fell like rain arrows.

"There's an earthquake, run." I yelled and led the way out of the next floor.

"It's not an earthquake, it's a TNT explosion." The fat man said as he ran.

As I ran through the U-shaped corner, the rare grains of sand landed on my head, and at that moment I didn't even think of shouting, "Quick, quicksand." As soon as he finished speaking, the sand and pebbles above his head poured down from the rock wall like a "waterfall".

"Damn, I was almost buried alive." The fat man who ran at the end spit out the sand from his mouth again and again, and washed the dust in his mouth while taking a sip of water.

The sand and pebbles actually covered half of the corpse cave, and in the humid air, a mountain of sand soon condensed, which was extremely hard.

"There is lime in the sand and pebbles, which solidifies when exposed to moisture or humid air." Duanmu Qianyu sighed and frowned slightly.

"The way out is blocked, are we really going to sleep here?" At this time, my heart was full of despair. Choose a place that seems relatively safe to sit down and chew on the dry food you carry with you – compressed biscuits.

When we quieted down, we found that this layer was a little different, the rock wall was full of ever-bright lanterns, and the entire corpse cave was emitting a faint light under the ever-bright lights, and the reflection of the ice was even more eerie.

The lantern has a double-layer structure, with a container filled with oil, the wick is made of vinegar, and the outer layer is filled with water to cool the oil. This device is a great (big) invention of the ancients, the consumption of lamp oil is not because of combustion, but because of heat volatilization, vinegar bubble wick can keep low temperature, and the outside of the oil jar can effectively prevent the oil temperature from rising.

"Why does the lantern last forever?" The fat man was a little curious, staring at the ever-bright lantern and seeming to discover a new world.

Duanmu Qianyu took a sip of water and said: "This is a scientific mystery, once a Greek scholar recorded that a lamp burning in the temple of the sun in Egypt was lit for centuries without any fuel. And 1,400 years ago, it was discovered that the tomb of Peles, the son of the ancient Roman king, also had an everlasting lamp, which continued to burn for more than 2,000 years, and the wind and water could not do anything about it, and the tomb of the father of Constance Dante burned for 1,200 years......"

"It's amazing...... I was suddenly full of curiosity about the lantern, in the eyes of my second cobbler, after the death of people, there needs to be a light to guide them to find the Huangquan Road, so after the death of people will light candles and so on.

"Fatty, can you be sure that the movement just now was a TNT explosion."

"Of course, when Lao Tzu was playing with explosives, such a rabbit cub was still urinating on the kang? If I can't hear this, how will I be fat in the rivers and lakes in the future. The fat man seemed to be very dissatisfied with Duanmu Qianyu's suspicions.

"If that's the case, it means that at least a group of people blew up the mountain and went into the ice cave." Duanmu Qianyu's tone was no longer as calm as when he first came in.

"It's all about how we get out." That's what I'm most concerned about right now.

"Is it good to have a little bit of luck, do you know what it means: there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain?" Duanmu Qiankite gave me another blank look. She got up and continued, "We're going to hurry, maybe someone will come later, and then we'll be more and more passive." ”

"It's strange, the corpses on this floor are all female corpses, and all of them are female corpses that are about to give birth." The fat man said, originally we thought that there was no difference between the corpses layer by layer, and the biggest difference was that the age was not one year, but when the fat man said this, we felt a chill in our hearts.

"Damn, who is this so hurtful, I'm not afraid of having a son without an asshole." Looking at this scene in front of me, people can't stand it, it's just a beast.

"Could it be that they are frozen for the resurrection?" Duanmu Qianyu pondered.

A few years ago, there was a news that a rich patient abroad could not be cured by the current technology, so he froze himself, waited for the scientific development to reach a certain level, and then thawed the treatment.

"It's impossible, everyone is young, not to mention, just enjoying life, who would choose to freeze themselves and wait for an unknown future? Besides, don't think about yourself, think about your children. Duanmu, will you freeze yourself when you're pregnant? I asked, turning my head.

This time, instead of getting angry, she nodded and said, "Yes, who would be so ruthless?" ”

We heard the sound of a clear chisel from the upper floor, and the lantern overhead began to shake slightly, making a slight "creaking" sound.

"So fast?" Duanmu Qiankite raised his hand and looked at the luminous watch, and said: "If it is a strong chisel for up to 2 hours, if it is a hole to plant explosives....... suddenly raised his head and said: "Run." ”

Maybe she thought that if it was explosives, then several of us would all be buried alive on this floor.

On the eighth floor, the ice gradually disappeared with the stairs, and when you walked down the last staircase, the ice magically disappeared......

There are no corpses on the eighth floor, and the temperature has risen a lot, and the four walls are carved lifelike according to the direction: Vermilion Bird, Xuanwu, Green Dragon, and White Tiger.

I frowned and said, "What does this mean?" ”

An Yan, who hadn't spoken for a long time, said: "There is a legend in the ancient tomb robbery books: the eye of the Vermilion Bird, the claw of Xuanwu, the Lin of the green dragon, and the tongue of the white tiger have become the four poles, and the legend can combine the power of the gods to turn things around. ”

"I'll go, this is just a strange corpse cave, although there are many secrets, but it has nothing to do with tomb robbery." There was disdain in my tone.

"Exploration is the same as tomb robbing, something mysterious and mysterious in the eyes of outsiders, it looks superstitious, but as long as you enter this industry, I advise you to believe it." This is the most he has said since I met An Yan.

"Whoa......" There was a terrifying roar from underground.
