Chapter 158: Goshawk Stone Statue
The snake in the snake nest discovered the existence of Li Hua and the four of them, and all their eyes looked at it, and the faint light, in the endless darkness, was terrifying. Standing on the edge of the snake's nest, the temperature drops sharply, perhaps because the snake itself is a cold-blooded animal, thousands of people gather together, and even the temperature drops. Another reason is that the aura of eerie fear pervades the air, which makes people feel a chill in the depths of their hearts.
Stayed next to the snake's nest for a while, and as guessed, the snake was motionless in the nest for some reason. On the only passage to Stone Mountain, Liu Shi led the way, and Li Hua supported Han Wei and Lin Xue at the same time, following closely behind. The speed was very slow, the flashlight had long been turned off, and he turned on his mobile phone and walked forward by the faint blue light, just for fear of stimulating the snakes.
Halfway to the passage, suddenly, a snake climbed up, very fast, right at Liu Shi's feet. Liu Shi instinctively dodged, only then did he raise his foot, the snake immediately stopped moving, the snake was raised high, leaning back slightly, it was an attack posture. Liu Shi didn't dare to make any more moves, a snake was not terrible, what he was afraid of was killing one, and immediately attracting his snake group to attack. Until now, I don't know what reason the snakes don't attack, maybe killing the snake in front of me won't be too much of a problem, but I don't dare to take the risk.
Snakes will hibernate in winter, in the season of April and May, it is still very cold in Inner Mongolia, and it is still underground, it is not impossible to be in the hibernation period, but the snake group has been dispatched, indicating that it is not hibernating. Things are strange, especially tens of thousands of snakes, only one in front of you is wandering outside, is the snake in front of you the most special?
Liu Shi held his breath and carefully observed the snake in front of him, the size of a fist, about two meters long, black throughout, a pointed head, and a bloody snow-white spot on it, like a snowflake imprinted on it in the blue light. Looking at the similar snowflake marks, I couldn't take my eyes off for a long time, as if there was the most beautiful woman scratching her head. When this feeling appeared in Liu Shi's mind, he immediately moved the trace and pinched himself, pain was the best way to dispel the hallucination.
As a scout, training in the field is an essential subject, one of the most important points is to study the natural environment and dangerous animals, so I have a deep understanding of snakes, and most of the snakes in the world have at least seen photos.
A person and a snake confronted each other for a moment, the snake suddenly turned away, it was swimming towards the location of the stone mountain, the snake's departure, the same as the situation before being forced in the corner of the room by the snakes, left without warning, what is the reason? Just by chance? Or is there something that is secretly guiding the snake?
Waiting for the snake to leave, Liu Shi immediately looked at the snake nest, the snakes in the snake group were all gray-brown, with white stripes on their bodies, and although their heads were pointed, they did not resemble snowflake marks at all. Did you meet the snake king, because you are the snake king, so it is special? Unable to find an answer, Liu Shi hesitated whether to continue walking, guessing that there was a passage to leave in the stone mountain, it was just a guess, thinking of the black snake just now, his heart was always uneasy.
"Keep walking, there's no going back." Li Hua saw Liu Shi's hesitation.
Yes, there is no way back, what are you hesitating about, there may be a glimmer of life ahead. Liu Shi nodded and continued to walk forward, walking more carefully. Seven or eight meters later, it has come to the end of the stone mountain passage, the end of the recess is fifty or sixty centimeters, the position of the recess, the right is empty, is a hole, no wonder the stone mountain is a whole from a distance, if you don't risk being swallowed by snakes to walk here, you will never find the existence of the hole.
Liu Shi first threw his wallet and went to the entrance of the cave, then his ears were close to the edge of the hole, and after waiting for a while, there was no movement inside, and then he walked in. As soon as he entered it, Liu Shi was stunned, or rather frightened, a pair of sharp eyes were staring at him, as majestic as an emperor, and everything had to be surrendered. One more glance, as if entering a black vortex, the body is dissipating. The legs trembled involuntarily and gradually bent, which was the tendency to prepare to kneel.
"Stone, what's wrong with you?" Li Hua slowed Liu Shi a few steps slower, the entrance of the cave was too small, and he could only bring one person in at a time. After bringing Han Wei and Lin Xue in, he found Liu Shi standing in place, his body trembling constantly, as if he had encountered something extremely terrifying.
The position where Liu Shi was standing just blocked Li Hua's vision, making him unable to see those mysterious eyes. When Li Hua's shout sounded, Liu Shi, who was struggling in the black whirlpool, seemed to have grabbed a life-saving rope, grabbed it tightly, and then crawled forward hard. The power of the whirlpool became greater and greater, and the rope suddenly broke, and in an instant it was swallowed into the depths of the whirlpool, and the eyes were blank, and in the endless darkness, there was not a trace of light in sight.
"Stones." Li Hua stepped forward and grabbed Liu Shi's arm and shook it vigorously.
I don't know if it was shouting or shaking that worked, Liu Shi woke up, gasping for breath, as if he was almost suffocating just now. After waking up, he finally saw the sharp eyes, four or five meters in front of him, there was a huge statue of a goshawk, seven or eight meters high, the eagle body looked down, as if looking down on the whole world, the eyes were staring at the location of the hole, as long as someone came in, the first sight could be seen.
"It's okay." Seeing that Liu Shi had already opened his eyes, but still did not respond, Li Hua followed his gaze as he spoke, a huge eagle statue, the first thing he saw was those eyes, dark eyes, not like stones at all, like real eyes. couldn't help but look at it a few more times, Li Hua felt that something was wrong, an indescribable feeling, and instinctively turned his gaze away. The whole statue, except for the eagle's head, is somewhat realistic, and the body carving is very rough, but it makes people's hearts palpitate.
In the totem of the Mongolian people, mainly the wolf and the white deer, as for the eagle is only one of the mascots, barely half a totem, in the imperial tomb, if you really want to leave the totem, why choose the eagle? Is it a personal hobby of the owner of the tomb, or is there a special secret that he doesn't know?
"I didn't ...... It's okay. Liu Shi finally woke up and quickly turned around, not daring to look at those eyes again. He is different from Li Hua, as long as he looks over, his eyes are naturally attracted by those eyes, and once he looks over, it is difficult to look away.
Li Hua looked at Liu Shi a little strangely, I don't know why, I always feel that he is normal, and he is sluggish again and again, it is rare that it is really an illusion? Li Hua remembered Han Wei's situation, Han Wei had often hallucinated in the past, but it was largely because of the existence of the white jade ring, so what was Liu Shi's reason? After Lao Zheng's death, Liu Shi went out alone and went crazy for a while, was there something special that happened during that time?
The doubts in his heart became deeper and deeper, Li Hua didn't dare to let Liu Shi continue to explore the way, let him stay where he was to take care of Han Wei and Lin Xue, and feed the two of them something by the way, as well as some biscuits and water, plus sugar cubes, which can replenish energy.
In the huge stone mountain, there is a huge space, and there is nothing to be seen except for a stone eagle statue. Li Hua walked along the eagle stone statue, and already knew that there was a stone mountain outside, and there would definitely be no mechanism on the stone wall, if there was a mechanism here, it could only be near the eagle stone statue, or on the stone statue.
Walking around the eagle statue, I found that on the ground under the tail of the eagle statue, there was a long drag mark, about 1.5 meters, and the end point of the drag mark was where the stone statue was. The situation in the field looks like the eagle statue has been moved, and the drag marks are covered with a thick layer of dust, which is not very obvious, indicating that it has been some time. Could it be vultures and others? Or did a tomb robber come in? No matter who it is, they will not move the eagle statue, because the stone statue is much larger than the entrance of the cave, and it cannot be moved out completely. If you want to take it out, you can only divide the stone statue into many parts, and the separable stone statue is not valuable.
Not to mention the traces of the eagle stone statue dragging it, the stone statue is completely a whole, carved from a huge stone, is it a stone from inside the stone mountain, or is it brought in from the outside? If you look closely, the stone material of the stone statue is different from the stone wall, the color of the stone wall is much lighter, and it is gray and yellow. The eagle stone statue is black in color, free of impurities, and is a complete black boulder. From this point of view, the stone statue should be brought in from the outside, so there must be a passage in the stone mountain space that can allow the eagle stone statue to pass.
Thinking of the drag marks, it is almost certain that the drag marks were left when the passage was opened, could it be that the passage was under the winning stone statue? Li Hua squatted down, checked the chassis under the stone statue, wiped off the dust with his hands, and sure enough, he found a small gap, and the gap circled around the stone statue.
I found the location of the passage, how do I open the mechanism? Walking around the stone statue, I didn't find the mechanism, and the last one may be on the stone statue. Li Hua put his left hand on the stone statue, just put it on, he felt that the stone statue moved, his hand instinctively quickly pulled away, and his body did not feel that the ground was shaking, is it an illusion? The hand slowly reached over and touched the stone statue, and the faint vibration came again, and it never stopped.
Did it touch the mechanism, so the stone statue started to vibrate? Li Hua didn't believe that luck would be so good, but he never moved his hand away, wanting to see what would happen. Soon five minutes passed, the stone statue had been trembling slightly, but there was no other change, Li Hua tried to push the stone statue, but he couldn't make it move at all. If it wasn't activated, why would the Eagle Stone Statue vibrate? Li Hua couldn't figure it out, so he walked around the stone statue again, keeping his hand on the stone statue, trying to find out where the mechanism was.
The mechanism was not found, the vibration of the stone statue was getting bigger and bigger, and Liu Shi on the side sensed it, and couldn't help but look back, and what he saw was still those eyes.
"Ahh Liu Shi screamed, kept retreating, and there was a stone wall behind him, and there was no way to retreat.
Li Hua heard the exclamation, turned his head to look at Liu Shi, and saw that his face was full of horror, his body was nervous and trembling, what terrifying thing did he see? Li Hua hurriedly ran forward and looked at the eagle's head, and Liu Shi's eyes were looking there. At a glance, Li Hua was so frightened that he took a few steps back, he was already mentally prepared, and his body still couldn't help but tremble.
