Chapter 34: Entering the Tomb
By the time Yuchen returned the phone to Anxia, the checkpoints inside had reached the three hundred levels.
An Xia was so shocked that her jaw almost fell to her leg, "Why did you clear the customs so quickly?" β
"Is this kind of game difficult?"
An Xia looked at him resentfully, obviously very difficult.
Get off the car and you're at the bottom of the mountain.
The professor stood in the crowd, "We are about to enter the mountain, it is late autumn, there will be a lot of snakes, insects, rats and ants, everyone take care of each other, and send out the medicine to avoid poisonous insects." β
The professor ordered to go down, and the staff around him gave everyone a small red bag, and An Xia put it in his nose and smelled it, and it was actually the smell of realgar.
Yu Chen walked over from the side at this time and gave An Xia a backpack.
Anxia was happy, thinking that it would be very heavy, but after putting it in her hand, she found that it was very light.
"Let's go.".
An Xia has been here once, and she is already a little familiar with this road, and she is not in a hurry to follow Yu Chen at the moment.
She deliberately wears hiking boots, and she walks quite lightly.
When I looked up, I had only walked for a few minutes, and I was still a long way from my destination.
The dense trees block the sunlight, and only a few rays of light leak through the cracks.
It seems to have just rained yesterday and the soil under my feet is a little slippery.
The hot sweat rolled into her eyes, she squinted and looked up, the sun was in full bloom, wiped the sweat on her forehead, but her feet accidentally slipped because of distraction, there was nothing around her, and her hand stretched out to grab a void.
In a whirlwind, she thought she was going to fall.
But no, she grabbed a hand.
Yu Chen stood above, grabbed her outstretched hand, and with a little strength, An Xia pounced directly.
An Xia's face was buried in the man's abdomen, she smelled the mint smell, her brain was a little dizzy, what is the situation now, she always feels very embarrassed.
"Are you alright?"
Just when she was flustered and didn't know what to do, Yu Chen's voice came faintly from above her head.
At the same time, she heard a gasp around her.
She straightened up and coughed lightly, "It's okay." β
Yu Chen's face was uncontrollably ugly, if he hadn't turned around suddenly just now, she would have been injured, when would this big grinning character be able to change?
"That's shameless, isn't it? actually pounced on it?! That An Xia really doesn't know how to look at people's faces, didn't she see that Professor Yu's face was so ugly? β
"That's right, this intention is too obvious, look at it, Professor Yu hates others approaching him the most, even Ye Han was deflated last time, this Anxia can't even compare to a finger of Ye Han, Professor Yu will definitely not tolerate it!"
The few people standing in the back saw it clearly, and while looking at An Xia, they bit their ears and talked about it.
Yu Chen turned a blind eye to the gaze of the people around him.
Just looked at Anxia intently.
"Hands."
An Xia was stunned, only then did she find that her hand was still in Yu Chen's hand, ten fingers intersected, the palm was close to the palm, the warm touch was soft, she suddenly felt nervous, oh subconsciously about to withdraw her hand.
Then, you can't pull it.
She looked up in confusion.
Yu Chen's face was cold, but his tone was quite gentle, "The other hand." β
Ansha handed her other hand up.
Yu Chen grabbed An Xia and went up a slope.
"Be careful next time."
He let go of his hand.
Anxia snorted, clenched her fists, sweating slightly, this was the first time they had held hands, she rubbed the palm of her hand, and the touch still lingered.
Yu Chen's behavior shocked the people behind him, looked at each other, and said that he hated women? Say that you don't like others to approach? The sentence of affection doesn't count when it comes to Anxia?
Xie Yan witnessed all this.
Others don't know what kind of person Yu Chen is, but she who has been secretly paying attention to Yu Chen since she was a child does.
Even colder than he appeared on the surface was his indifferent heart, which would never waver.
Han Xiaoxiao He can't even look down on him, will he take a fancy to An Xia who is nothing? No, she didn't believe it.
As time passed, the tomb of Emperor Zhou was also in sight.
The door to the tomb has been closed, this is to prevent others from entering by mistake.
Knee-high grass has grown around the area, and if you don't look closely, it's easy to skim by, also because the terrain is remote, there are few people passing by, and wild grass grows wildly.
"Yuchen, you go and open the door."
"Hmm."
The door was mechanical, and when they entered, they were almost wounded by the poisoned arrows inside.
Emperor Zhou has reigned for many years, how could he not know that his cemetery may be coveted by someone after his death, and there are many organs inside, if it is not for the development of modern civilization, it is impossible to enter at all.
This is also the cunning of Emperor Zhou.
"Be careful." Yu Chen lightly instructed everyone, but his eyes were looking at An Xia, and An Xia nodded to indicate that he knew.
After going deeper, An Xia found that the place where he and Yuchen went last time was only the entrance of the cemetery.
It's like an underground palace, so big that you can't find the north, and if someone shakes their minds, they might even be able to get lost.
Yuchen walked calmly and freely in the first place, leading the way for everyone.
Most of these deadly mechanisms have been removed, but a small number of them are simply impossible to destroy even by modern humans.
So you have to go carefully.
Someone rubbed his arms and looked around, "I always feel a little eerie here." β
"Well, I think so too, if you want to make a horror movie, it's definitely the first choice."
Anxia listened to the people behind her ears and sneered, these little children thought a lot.
This is the tomb of Emperor Zhou, do you think that the tomb of Emperor Zhou is really as simple as it seems?
Now it's just that Yuchen is leading the way, and it looks simple.
In fact, it's like a labyrinth inside, and it's impossible to tell where the real road is, let alone the mechanism inside or the Mojia mechanism, if you break in by mistake, you can only have no return.
So, these children are still too naΓ―ve.
"It's been so long, and it's not too early, so let's rest in place first." The professor discussed with Yu Chen, each of these children is the pride of the sky, and they have already been exhausted after walking for so long, and the few people behind them have gradually declined, so it is better to take a rest on the spot and walk.
"Are you alright?"
"Hmm. It's not heavy at all. β
Yu Chen came to An Xia's side.
"Give me the bag."
An Xia took off the backpack on her shoulder, unzipped it, and inside were two thermos cups, as well as some ordinary medicines that didn't account for much at all.
Yuchen twisted open the thermos cup, the water in it was still hot, "Have a drink." β
The ancient tomb was cold, and An Xia originally felt a little cold to the bone, but now that there is hot water, of course, he will not hesitate to take it.
An Xia was taken aback, she really didn't expect this person to prepare hot water carefully.
The others were even more shocked, when did they see Yuchen so considerate, and suddenly felt that the mineral water in their hands was not fragrant.
After a while, of course, we continued our journey.
It was eight o'clock in the morning, and now it's twelve o'clock in the afternoon.
If you delay any longer, you won't be able to go down the mountain today.
At the end of the day, there is basically no way.
The professor came to the stone platform, "Yuchen, the mechanism here is ingenious, if it weren't for the lack of time, I really want to stay and crack the mystery, you open the door now, let these children see what a mechanism is." β
Yu Chen's jaw is bowed.
There are two candles next to the stone platform, and the faint light of the fire seems to feel the movement for a moment, but it is still strong when it is about to be extinguished.
Anxia had noticed the two candles from the time she first came in.
The air is thin here, how could a candle have been burning inside for so long?
Besides, the candle will always burn dry one day, but looking at the candle, the flame can still be lit for a long time.
Sure enough, it was related to what An Xia thought, Yu Chen twisted the two candles, twisted his hands in different directions at the same time, and a few seconds later, the ground standing at his feet suddenly shook slightly, and the frightened students took two steps back, only to see that the place that was fine just now suddenly cracked, like sliding left and right.
After a moment of movement, a passage appeared underground.
The students were secretly amazed, it was the first time they had seen this kind of secret passage.
It's like seeing what happens in a TV series.
Yu Chen and the professors looked as usual, they didn't know how many of these institutions they had seen.
"I'll lead the way, and you follow."
No one has ever been in inside, of course you have to be careful, Yu Chen offered to lead the way, and the professor also felt that Yu Chen could take on the big responsibility, so he nodded, "Be careful." β
Xie Yan came behind Yu Chen intentionally or unintentionally, so that he could see himself when he turned around.
It's a pity that Yu Chen didn't even give her an afterglow, his eyes shuttled through the crowd, and found that An Xia was squeezed to the back, as if he wanted to isolate her intentionally or unintentionally.
Anxia didn't care, she stood aside and watched them look at them like a monkey, standing inside and watching the excitement.
"Anxia, come here."
Yu Chen's voice was not loud, but it was full of prestige, and the noisy crowd was so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard.
An Xia raised her eyebrows, and walked over under everyone's gaze as usual.
Everyone got out of the way, their expressions different.
"As my assistant, of course, you must always be by my side, and don't be so far away next time." How could Yu Chen not know the careful thinking of this group of people, he just didn't want to pay attention to it.
An Xia nodded, "Not next time." β
"Let's go."
The professor sighed, when did this Yuchen become so humane, and he was so attentive to his assistant.
It's really rare.
Yu Chen and An Xia held flashlights, and beams of lights shone in the dark passage, and the road inside didn't look easy to walk, but fortunately, there was no dangerous shelter.
So far, so far, their group has gone well.
The safe arrival, without even any mechanism, was a relief.
They came to an inner chamber.
