Chapter 255: The Room Behind the Stone Gate
The coffin is shown in the fairy cave
The vanished reappears
"What's going on? Why did the skinny monkey suddenly run in front of the three of us? The bearded man asked, surprised. Brother Liu, don't you notice it at all? ”
Liu Junxiao did not answer the bearded question, he reached out and picked up the climbing rope tied to his waist, and the end of the rope was neatly cut.
Then he used a wolf's eye flashlight to shine around, and pressed his hand back and forth on the wall for a long time.
"I said, where are you looking for something?" The bearded man asked.
"It's impossible for someone to disappear out of thin air and suddenly appear in front of us, there must be some mechanism in this secret passage." Liu Junxiao said.
"I said, boss, what kind of mechanism are you looking for at this time? I feel like the skinny monkey is dying! Li Ergou at the front suddenly shouted.
"What? He ...... "Before Liu Junxiao's words were finished, suddenly the entire corridor shook violently, and then an extremely harsh metal friction sound followed, and the sound was like scraping the bottom of the bowl with a spoon, which made people's scalps tingle.
The sound lasted for about ten seconds, followed by a violent tremor of the stone walls on both sides of the corridor, and then began to move closer to the middle.
This corridor was not very wide in the first place, and coupled with the speed at which the stone walls closed quickly, in the blink of an eye, the three of them were already in a desperate situation.
"Run!" At the critical moment, Liu Junxiao shouted fiercely.
Under the reminder of Liu Junxiao, Li Ergou reacted, and he stumbled towards the room behind the stone door.
But just when he was about to run into the stone gate, Li Ergou didn't know what he tripped under his feet, and the whole person fell forward.
Since the three of them were tightly tied together, Li Ergou's fall didn't matter, and the bearded man and Liu Junxiao, who were closely behind, were also brought forward by that force.
The three of them were like stacking hamburgers, and they fell into a dog's.
But this is not the end, as soon as a few people want to get up, they hear a few "whoosh" sounds, followed by dozens of cold arrows from the top of their heads and nailed to the stone gate in front of them, and countless stone chips are suddenly scattered everywhere.
"! Who the fuck touched the mechanism? Liu Military Academy scolded.
"I don't know!" Li Ergou was pressed to the ground and gasped.
"Now is not the time to talk about this, let's talk about something going out!" As he spoke, the bearded man grabbed Li Ergou on the ground and kicked him hard in the ass.
Li Ergou was kicked by the beard like this, and the whole person took four or five steps forward, and planted his head into the room behind the stone door.
The bearded man and Liu Junxiao also followed the inertia and followed into the room behind the stone gate.
And just when Liu Junxiao's feet just left the corridor, there was a loud "bang" behind him, and the corridor that was not very wide was closed together at any time, if the three of them were a little later, even if it was only a second, or half a second, it was estimated that they would have already become human meat pies by now.
The three of them were in great distress, sitting on the ground panting, and after a long while, Liu Junxiao slowly raised the wolf-eyed flashlight in his hand to observe the room behind the stone door.
I saw that this room is not very large, and it is still a semi-natural and semi-artificial construction method. The surrounding walls have been carefully polished, carved with rows of strange patterns, like a pattern, and like some kind of mysterious text.
In addition, there are two doors in this room, in addition to the door where Liu Junxiao and a few of them entered, there is a stone door opposite them, but the stone door is not opened.
In addition to these two stone doors, there are also four pitch-black stone pillars standing in the room, the black on the stone pillars does not know what material is mapped, the flashlight shines on it without the slightest reflection, and the strong light of the wolf's eyes seems to be completely absorbed by them.
And in the middle of the stone pillar, that is, in the middle of the room, there is a king-sized sarcophagus.
Why is this sarcophagus king-sized?
That's mainly because its length and width are several times longer than the coffin that ordinary people have known in the past, and even the height is more than half a meter higher.
The shape of this coffin is extremely simple, so simple that it is almost made of a piece of rough stone.
It's just that around him are engraved with dense strange pictures and texts, which are very similar to those around the walls, and I don't know what they mean.
In addition, what is even more surprising is that this sarcophagus is not covered, the large and thick coffin lid stands aside, and on the inside of the coffin lid, there is an unusually carved shape of a beautiful woman.
This beauty carved is very surprising, and it can even be said to be lifelike, although the appearance is not amazing, but it is definitely a rare beauty in the world, thin eyebrows, red phoenix eyes, thin lips, melon seed face, anything alone is not particularly good-looking, but put them together, for some reason it always gives people an irresistible charm, and always makes people want to take a few looks.
In addition, what is even more surprising is that this woman is almost not wearing any clothes on her body, only wrapped in a layer of light yarn, which floats with the wind, and seems to move with the wind. The woman was half-bowed, her chin was slightly retracted, the corners of her mouth were lowered, and her eyes were looking at the same path as the one where several people had fallen in.
The expression seemed to be very unhappy, as if she was taking a shower and several big men suddenly broke into her boudoir.
Liu Junxiao couldn't help but look at the woman a few times, and finally removed his eyes from the sarcophagus lid.
Liu Junxiao took a wolf-eyed flashlight and looked around the room a few more times, but to his surprise, he didn't see the shadow of the thin monkey.
Or more accurately, apart from the three of them, he didn't even see a ghost.
"I said Ergouzi, you said you saw a thin monkey, but there isn't even a ghost shadow here, are you fucking mistaken?" After taking the flashlight and shining it around, Liu Junxiao asked with a frown.
"No! How could it be wrong! Li Ergou rubbed the painful place where he had just fallen, and said loudly: "I just saw that kid standing in front of that coffin and smirking!" ”
"What? He stood in front of the coffin and giggled? The bearded man asked in surprise.
"That's right! When is this going on, can I fool you? Li Ergou said loudly. Let me tell you, it's not that I'm cowardly, it's not that I'm hypocritical, I really think this place is weird! Let's not talk about whether I was mistaken, and the skinny monkey is not here. In this place alone, you can tell me how a good immortal cave suddenly has a coffin, and a good gathering place for dwarf mules suddenly has so many traps. I'm telling you that there are only two possibilities for this scenario. Li Ergou said and made a gesture that was commonly used when Conan said "There is only one truth", of course, there was no Conan in that era, it was just a description.
"Two possibilities? What is possible? The bearded man asked in surprise.
Li Ergou rubbed his chin and pondered for a while, and said, "Either this cave itself is a tomb, and it was later occupied by those dwarf mules, and that idiom is called ...... What's it called......
"The dove occupies the magpie's nest!" The bearded man reminded from the side.
"Yes, yes, yes! The dove occupies the magpie's nest, that is, the dove occupies the magpie's nest! I can't remember it for a while, ...... just now," Li Ergou patted his head and said: "These dwarf mules have found this tomb very good, so let's take this place as their home!" So, those guys moved into someone's mansion so generously. There is another possibility...... That's ......"
"What is it?" Liu Junxiao asked.
"That is, this tomb was built by those dwarf mules, and this coffin contains the earth fairy Gu that they have always worshipped as gods. I think ......" When Li Ergou said this, he suddenly paused, and the second half of his words were stuck in his throat.
"What do you think?" The bearded man and Liu Junxiao saw that Li Ergou suddenly stopped talking, so they asked.
Li Ergou swallowed his saliva, raised his right hand and pointed to the big sarcophagus tremblingly, and said tremblingly for a while: "I think...... I think it must be the Earth Fairy Gu in it, don't believe it...... Believe it or not! ”
Liu Junxiao and the bearded man looked in the direction of Li Ergou's finger, it didn't matter what they looked at, and both of them couldn't help but gasp.
Because, I don't know when it started, a person actually sat up from the coffin.
And what made the three of them feel very strange was that the person who got up from the coffin was none other than the thin monkey who disappeared before.
I saw that the thin monkey didn't know when he actually changed into a black shroud, the size of the clothes was extremely inappropriate, although the thin monkey was thin, but he was a seven-foot man after all, and the clothes were worn on his body, and his whole person was strangled out of an extremely weird posture.
And what's even more weird is the peony flower on this guy's chest, although the peony flower is embroidered on the clothes, but for some reason, at this moment, a little blood is flowing out of the gaps in the petals, like the dew between the flowers in the morning, slowly dripping onto the corners of the clothes.
In addition, the thin monkey's eyes turned up, the whites of the white flowers were full of bloodshots, the black eyeballs could not be seen at all, the skin on the face was faintly blue, the mouth was slightly open, the corners of the mouth slowly rose, and saliva unconsciously dripped down the corners of the mouth.
Slowly, the saliva at the corner of the thin monkey's mouth began to turn red, as red as blood, the red became deeper and deeper, and finally, there were streams of black blood flowing out of the corners of his mouth.
"Skinny monkey!" Liu Junxiao couldn't help but shout when he saw everything in front of him.
After saying that, he was about to rush over, but as soon as he moved, the bearded man next to him grabbed him.
"What are you doing?" Liu Junxiao glared at the bearded man and shouted.
"He's hopeless!" The bearded man said with a frown. "He is now soaked in corpse poison, if you go now, not only will you not be able to save him, but you will have to put your life into it."
"But ......," Liu said, looking at the thin monkey.
"Nothing! The most important thing we need to do now is to calm down, and then find out if there is any way to get out of here, or we will probably have to bury this kid. The bearded man said, "Anyway, he still has a coffin to sleep in, where are we?" ”
