Chapter 55: Another Way Out
"Well, it looks like I'm going to find another way out." Zhou Fan had already withdrawn his gaze from looking at a few coffins, and he had also recalled his understanding of the four evils, and now he could only take one step at a time.
"I'm going to get out of this place in one day, no matter what." Zhou Fan touched the backpack left by Feng Long and found that there was no food left in it.
Besides, God bless them before they went out, and let them call the police if they didn't see him come out a day later, if they let the police know that there is such a place under the ancient city, it will definitely make the city full of wind and rain, and maybe there will be some ancient tomb.
However, in his opinion, the probability that this is an ancient tomb is very low, but no one can guarantee whether this will be just a part of some underground palace, or even just a corner of some huge mausoleum.
Although this possibility is very low, even so low that it has no credibility, even he himself will not believe it, Zhou Fan grew up in the ancient city since he was a child, and he has inhuman research on some gods and ghosts, if there is a huge mausoleum under the ancient city that has been excavated by him, he doesn't have to wait until now to find out.
More importantly, in the 5,000-year history of China, there has never been an imperial capital of that dynasty, which is located in Guangxi, and the history (the ancient city of Longzhou) is a defense town, used to resist the existence of foreign enemies, and it has been baptized in the fire of war all the year round.
If it weren't for the princely generals, it would be impossible for ordinary dignitaries and nobles to afford such a huge burial pit, you must know that in the previous slave society, it was a special burial treatment that only people of the king level or above could enjoy, even in the ancient Yin Shang, it was obviously impossible for the dignitaries and nobles to build such a huge burial pit.
First of all, they don't have so much manpower, even if you have money, such as the ancient Yin Shang Dynasty will not use so many people for you, the most important thing is that the tombs that accompany the burial, whether it is the craftsman who built the tomb or the person who accompanied the burial, will all be buried one by one when the tomb is built.
For example, the population of the ancient Yin Shang Dynasty was not too large at that time, and now this burial pit is at least more than 100,000 people, and such a huge and labor-intensive project can only be completed by the kings of ancient times.
In other words, this burial pit is not the emperor's, at least the prince, and the like, if the government knows that it will definitely not let other people come into contact here, that is not what Zhou Fan wants.
He still doesn't know who this burial pit is for, what it is for, and more importantly, he hasn't figured out the role of the Four Evil Formations, and it would be a big problem for the government to send archaeologists to take over the place.
All some scientific archaeologists don't believe in ghosts and gods, and now the four coffins below must not be moved, will the archaeologists lined up by the government care about those?
If you don't understand the situation, move the coffin indiscriminately, or lift the coffin, the things inside will definitely break out of the coffin, and then it will not be a simple archaeology.
I am afraid that the army will not be able to suppress such ferocity, and the ancient city will definitely be implicated, and the contents of the four coffins will come out at one time, even Zhou Fan dare not imagine, but there is no doubt about one thing.
That is, half of the people in the ancient city will die because of this, or even as much as ninety percent, if this kind of thing really happens, then Zhou Fan will become a sinner for the ages.
The more I thought about it, the more I was afraid, and Zhou Fan couldn't help but shudder, "Why is it suddenly cold." "I was thinking about things, but I didn't notice that the underground space was getting colder and colder, and the cold Zhou Fan shivered, and only then did he feel the strange changes in the space.
At this time, the misty fog did not know that it had never come out, and it was spreading throughout the underground space little by little, and the originally very strange scene now looked even more uncomfortable, seeing that the visibility of the field of vision in front of him was getting lower and lower, Zhou Fan frowned, quietly waiting for the next change.
Now he can't do anything, he can't go out, and he can't move around, because the position he is standing on now is only a small bluestone platform, and he can only go to the same place.
Time passed little by little, the fog concentration in the underground space became heavier and heavier, Zhou Fan looked around more cautiously, in addition to the heavier and heavier fog, there was also a trace of cold air, and bursts of cold and biting air would float from time to time in the hazy fog. "I'm going, what's going on, it's getting colder? It's almost sub-zero. ”
The sword in Zhou Fan's hand was about to form a thin layer of ice, and he slashed it to the side with the ancient sword, but the thin ice on the ancient sword still did not fall from the sword.
Zhou Fan had no choice but to pick up the ancient sword and slash to the side again, but this time it was no longer to split the air, but to the stone on the side of the "bell" with a "bell" of lightning and flint, and the stone was cut to pieces by the sword in Zhou Fan's hand.
The ancient sword was not damaged at all, not even the blade was notched at all, and the gravity swung the ancient sword and touched the stone, and the layer of thin ice that shook also shattered.
Zhou Fan felt much more relaxed holding the ancient sword, the ancient sword was more than a hundred centimeters long, it was not light, and the thin layer of ice on the sword body made it even heavier to hold in his hand, if something suddenly attacked, it would definitely affect the speed and strength of the sword, Zhou Fan didn't want to do more work, but the scene in front of him had to make him cautious.
Just as Zhou Fan was cautiously inspecting the surrounding environment, he accidentally kicked the stone that the ancient sword had cut down before, and although it was not big, it was the size of a fist.
The place where it fell happened to be Zhou Fan's heel, and the hazy mist and strange atmosphere made Zhou Fan not pay more attention to those, and kicked the stone into the pool of blood.
I saw a dull sound of "dong", which frightened Zhou Fan all over, and only when he came back to his senses did he turn on the flashlight and shine under the blood pool, now he already knew that the sound was the sound made after he accidentally kicked the stone and fell into the blood pool, but this does not mean that the blood pool will not change, this ghost place can not be moved anywhere, and the blood pool is one of them.
Listening to the sound of the stone falling, it proved that the blood pool below was not shallow, and he had seen the power of the blood pool before, and the bronze coffin was also below, and now that there was such a big movement, he couldn't help but be afraid that it would arouse some ghost things underneath, and he stepped forward, and the flashlight in his hand vaguely saw something strange through the hazy fog.
Zhou Fan's pupils shrank and leaned forward, almost to the edge of the platform, and when he looked down, he really found something that shocked him even more, he originally thought that all the fog came out of the blood pool, but now it seems that it did not come out of the blood pool, but came out of a hole not far from the surface of the blood pool.
"Damn, you want me to drill the dog hole, when did this come out?" Zhou Fan was surprised and hesitated to go down, now there is obviously no way to retreat, and the opposite side will definitely not be able to pass, so he can only follow the steps to go up.
To explore the mechanism of the Shimen Cave, but even he didn't dare to have too many illusions, now the underground space has basically changed greatly, and it is even more difficult to find it now when Tianyou was looking for it.
After thinking about it, Zhou Fan decided to go down and take a look: "Drill the dog hole, just drill it" and whispered fiercely, the ancient sword in his hand was put back into the sword bag, and the backpack on his back was also buckled tightly.
Along the rope slid down the hole position, before the person went in, he was blown by a yin wind and the whole person swayed on the blood pool, Zhou Fan was holding the rope in one hand and the flashlight in the other, and his feet were holding the rope stiffly, no matter how the rope swayed, the person still held the rope steadily, although the swaying trajectory was not large, Zhou Fan did not dare to be distracted, if it fell, it would definitely become slag.
The rope was still swinging, and Zhou Fan's eyes suddenly lit up: "Now it's time to swing into the cave with the rope." "I thought of it, and I did it, but the rope hadn't swung too much.
Zhou Fan shook it vigorously with the momentum of the rope, and he was not worried that the rope would break, because he had already checked the rope before coming down, which was the thickened outdoor professional climbing rope they bought.
The position of Feng Long to tie the rope is also strong enough, so the rope will not break no matter how he swings, what he has to worry about is that he will fall down if he swings too much, Zhou Fan is holding the rope and shaking the rope while borrowing strength, and now Zhou Fan is like swinging just This swing is a rope, and his life is in danger at any time, as Zhou Fan's shaking rope gets closer and closer to the cave.
Just when the rope reverberated again and again to the position close to the cave, Zhou Fan decisively let go and jumped into the cave, rolling to reduce the buffer force of the jump.
didn't have time to notice whether he was injured or not, he pulled out the ancient sword behind him, and looked at the dark cave passage, and Zhou Fan felt something strange at the moment of jumping down.
He is very sensitive to abnormal things, and the moment he landed, Zhou Fan knew that there was something unusual or something on the other side of the cave, which made him have to be cautious, and his eyes looked at the other end of the cave, and only for a moment the feeling of danger and coldness disappeared.
This made Zhou Fan feel a little strange, and originally thought that there would be some murderous thing to attack him, "What's the matter, that feeling can't be wrong, what's the matter?" Zhou Fan felt that cold and violent aura, and he didn't dare to go any further, feeling that the thing with that kind of aura must be a creature, not a ghost.
But it also made Zhou Fan a little timid, after all, now he has no other weapons except the ancient sword in his hand, if there is a ghost, a fierce spirit or something like that, he will be easy to deal with.
If there is a monster on the other side of the cave or in the cave, then he is equivalent to a sheep in the mouth of a tiger, "No, you can't act so rashly, if I plant it in the hands of that thing, I will play with it." Zhou Fan looked at the cave according to the flashlight, and the beam of the flashlight failed to penetrate the cave, and could only shine a certain distance.
After thinking about it, he put away the flashlight, opened his backpack and lit the portable torch in it, with the current concentration of dense fog, the effect of the flashlight is not as good as the torch.
Besides, if the opposite side is really a beast or something like that, the fire can also have a deterrent effect on them, and after lighting the torch, Zhou Fan no longer cares about the cave behind him, and turns around to look at the place where he jumped down just now.
Zhou Fan took a closer look and found that the position he was in now should be the position of the bronze coffin just now, the bronze coffin was leaning against the wall, one end facing the black sarcophagus opposite, and the other end facing the wall.
No wonder he didn't find this cave just now, it turned out to be a bronze coffin that gradually revealed after sinking into the blood pool, and after getting on the platform, he couldn't imagine that there would be a cave here, if it weren't for the fog that suddenly came out of this hole, I am afraid that Zhou Fan would not have discovered the existence of this cave even if he was killed.
