Chapter Ninety-Five: Horror in the Tomb
The featherless arrow circled around and returned, and there was no movement in the direction of the tomb door.
I waved for the poplar to wait in place, and quietly touched it myself.
The fat toad was gone, and I looked inside the tomb door, but it was pitch black and there was no movement.
I didn't rush in, but turned around and touched the stains on the ground, it looked like something that a person vomited out after drinking too much, and ten drunks in a huge puddle couldn't spit out so much, and the smell was fishy, but the python beads were intact.
I pulled it out, wiped it clean and carefully put it in my backpack. This thing, but Lao Tzu picked up Lu Jun's capital, if I can digest it, I will be able to break through the middle stage of the Holy Realm in one fell swoop, at least on par with Lu Jun's realm!
Turning back to the poplar tree, Yang Qi empowerment suppressed his injury, and after taking some medicine, he was finally able to walk.
I told him about the situation.
While he was surprised, he also wondered: "Could it be that the python beads are poisonous?" Poisoned that horned toad? ”
I couldn't help but roll my eyes: "And then?" Turned into a puddle of vomit? ”
He scratched his head: "Won't you know if you go in and see?" ”
"Okay, you give me a little care, don't drag Lao Tzu back."
"Well, I'll try."
The two of us touched the tomb door one after the other, but there was no fluorite lighting in the door, and our mobile phones were also scrapped by water, but fortunately, there was a waterproof flashlight that could be used, with this light source, the situation inside was in full view.
Behind the tomb door is a straight tomb road, less than thirty meters long, but tall and wide, there are terracotta warrior statues every five steps on the left and right sides, showing the posture of armed guards, but the weapons in their hands have been melted. The walls on both sides are intricately painted with murals, but most of them have peeled off because of their age and dampness underground.
There is a portal with a hole open at the bottom, and it is said to be a portal because there is a frame and no door!
I could see very clearly that it was not that the door was collapsed or open, but that it was not at all.
I looked at Poplar and I both felt weird.
The Spring and Autumn burial system, especially the Qin Dynasty burial system after the great unification, the large tombs are mostly bucket-shaped, like this kind of straight tombs are rare, and there are tomb doors outside, but there are no inside, which is really not in line with the customs of funerals, just like a yang house has a courtyard door but no house door is as weird.
What really made me hesitate was that there was a gust of wind howling in the portal, and I could faintly hear the wind at the foot of our feet.
But we were only thirty meters away from it, and there was not a single wind blowing out, which was a bit surprising.
What binds the howling wind to the portal?
Being in the land of the slanting moon and the lone star, and in the deep underground water, I have already stepped into the Hades Hall with one foot, and at this time I am facing such a strange situation, I am afraid that even if my master father comes, he will have to frown.
"This tomb is too weird, you take the bag, I'll go for a trip first."
I whispered as I pulled out the few remaining Yin Wind Beans and Soul Attracting Incense from my bag, Yin Wind Beans can warn you, and the Soul Attracting Incense can make the resentful spirits hidden in the dark involuntarily reveal their figures, although using these things here is not respectful enough for Zou Yan, but in order to survive, I can't care about that much.
After lighting the incense, I watched my feet and slowly moved forward against the right side of the tomb.
During the Qin Dynasty, our country respected the left, and the carriages, horses and pedestrians also passed on the left, so if there was an ambush, it would usually be set up on the left, and the right side could avoid some trouble.
But I soon realized that I was overthinking, and there were no mechanisms in this tomb.
Approaching the door, I slowly moved my flashlight to shine it, and the situation inside made me tense up at once, and the soul-attracting incense was also thrown away, and I subconsciously felt out the three-edged thorns, and took a few steps back in a row to stabilize my footing.
In the portal, is a large hall that is hundreds of steps deep, the shape is somewhat similar to the court hall of the princes and kings in the Spring and Autumn Period, there are dozens of huge pillars supporting the top in the hall, there are terracotta figurines on both sides, taller than ordinary people, do a hundred officials and courtiers like solemn standing.
A "patio" in the center was filled with an unknown liquid, and it sparkled under the reflection of the flashlight, and behind the patio was the throne perched high on the jade steps, and this throne was where I gasped.
The place where the Kowloon chair should have been placed, but with dozens of black chains thicker than a person's thigh, a huge white copper coffin was hung, hanging at a height three feet from the ground, and the yin wind roared all around, forming a whirlwind visible to the naked eye around the coffin, and the chain and coffin were swaying slightly in the wind, and there was a slight uproar.
The bronze coffin and iron coffin will only be used when the person who enters the mortar has a tendency to be corpsed!
And the yin wind howling gathers, that is the omen that will only have when the fierce god of the Mao roar level is about to raise the corpse!
Some people may ask what level of zombie Mao Roar is, presumably Han Tianfu's drooping eyebrow zombie that was fueled by seedlings, do you remember? Mao Roar is three grades higher than it, and he has already touched the edge of the drought fish thousands of miles away!
With the strength of my entry to the Holy Realm, when I encounter Mao Roar, I won't even have time to escape, and I will be sucked dry by it every few dozen meters, and even my soul will become nourishment for it to restore its youthful appearance.
What's even worse is that this is Zou Yan's tomb!
If the person buried in the coffin is really Zou Yan, the founder of the Five Elements Doctrine, a thousand years ago, then once the corpse is raised, I am afraid that the power of the Xuanmen may not be able to subdue it.
A series of horrified thoughts crossed my mind, and I instinctively wanted to withdraw and close the tomb to suppress it.
But when I came back to my senses, I felt that my mouth was bitter, my face was hard, and I couldn't even smile bitterly.
There is only one way in this realm, and it is also the only way for us to live.
The only way to do this is to quickly pass through the hall and find a way out of the apse before it can sit up from the coffin.
Although I can't figure out why Zou Yan became like this, thinking about the fact that Qin Shi Huang's body was hidden in stinky salted fish for more than a month after his death, there is nothing unacceptable.
I replied to beckon Poplar to come over immediately, and then took the lead in turning off the flashlight, closing the pores of my whole body to prevent a trace of breath from leaking out.
Even though I was hundreds of paces away from the coffin, I felt like I was in the abyss.
When the poplar touched it, the first thing I did was to step on the soul-attracting incense I had lost.
I realized that I was a little out of order, and while the poplar was observing the inside, I took two deep breaths in a row to stabilize my emotions, and then used gestures to tell the poplar my plan simply.
Neither of us dared to risk waking up the thing inside the coffin to communicate verbally.
Fortunately, we have a tacit understanding, and his thoughts coincide with mine.
The two of us were almost attached to the wall to the right of the main hall, and moved in little by little.
The yin wind in the hall was biting, and the hands and feet were stiff and the skin and flesh were numb, but we didn't dare to resist with yang energy, so we had to grit our teeth and endure it.
To be honest, there has never been a distance that has made me so scared as I am now!
Two hundred and thirty-one steps, I counted the steps and walked for about ten minutes.
But fortunately, we were cautious, and there was no abnormality in the coffin in the hall.
Seeing that I was getting closer and closer to the coffin, my heart was in my throat.
The most common reason for the corpse is the stimulation of popularity, and the person in the coffin already has signs of the corpse, when we pass by the coffin, we must not let any trace of popularity be swept away by the wind, otherwise we will have to stay here for burial today.
But just as we reached the position parallel to the coffin, the faint footsteps behind me suddenly stopped.
I was shocked, what is the poplar going to do?
How can this terrible stall stop?
When he looked back, he saw that the poplar tree was pale, his eyes were straight, and he was staring at the coffin.
"Soul sucking?"
I was horrified, not knowing if I would make a noise, so I grabbed it and blocked it.
High-level zombies have an instinct, even when they are asleep, they can suck the soul of people, and people can't help but make mistakes that are usually impossible to make, otherwise there would not be so many tomb robbers buried in the same tomb.
When encountering a soul-sucking person, as long as there is something blocking his vision, he can regain consciousness in a moment.
But what I didn't expect was that I blocked in front of the poplar, and he not only didn't wake up, but also reached out to pull me aside.
In desperation, I had to press him against the wall.
Fortunately, he didn't struggle, just waved his hand again and again to signal that he was okay.
I frowned and stared at him for a moment, only to notice that he looked as usual, and then let go of him.
But he raised his hand to the coffin, and gestured to say something.
Seeing that I didn't understand, he actually snatched the flashlight from my hand and shone it directly on the ground under the coffin.
I couldn't help but be frightened, although the light of the flashlight contained no heat, but a direct shot at the coffin might also alarm the person inside.
But after two or three seconds, nothing unusual happened, and the white copper coffin was still shaking in the wind.
I was in the mood to look at the flashlight, and saw that directly below the coffin was a huge bronze "manhole cover", exactly like the one we saw under the statue of the cave god above.
Seal?
What is sealed under the coffin?
This strange hall tomb, the white copper hanging coffin with evil aura has completely subverted my perception of the Qin Dynasty burial system, and the appearance of this seal is completely beyond the scope of any kind of yin house feng shui in all dynasties.
Just like no one will put a cat cage under their bed and raise a wild cat that howls every day, who will seal some evil things on their coffin bed, could it be that this Zou Yan just wants to make himself unpeaceful after death, and cheat the corpse to rise?
Before I could figure out the mystery of the seal, a terrible voice suddenly came from the center of the hall!
"Quack...... Croak! ”
Fat toad!
I was struck by lightning, and my heart said that this time I was dead, and I was so nervous just now that I forgot that there was still such a thing as it.
Not to mention whether it will alarm anyone in the coffin, even if it is only this fat man, it is not something we can handle!
I turned my head to follow the voice.
Sure enough, in the center of the dark hall, a pair of blood-red eyes were staring at us!
But wait......
Is this really a fat toad?
Although this is also a pair of red eyes, it is a little smaller, right?
How big?
It's a little indescribable, maybe a little bigger than a soybean?
But if it's not the fat toad, what can it be?
The grandson of the fat toad?
Could it be that Zou Yan still has a strange habit of raising toads in the tomb?
