Chapter 483: Tomb Horror
With the help of the illuminating effect of the cold light stick, I seemed to notice that there seemed to be a deep crack under the thick vine leaves on the far left, and the crack that I could observe from this distance must be two centimeters, at least!
I was a little excited by this discovery, the construction of ordinary burial chambers would never allow such a large crack in the burial chamber, if my guess is correct, the crack must have been artificially excavated, maybe it is a passage into the next burial chamber!
It's just that this tomb is too weird, and now none of us dare to rush in, frozen here for a while, the seventh master and Wang Chuyi are still discussing why the torch thrown in is quickly extinguished, and Huzi is bored and tinkering with his fingers, as if he is a child who can't grow up.
I walked over to Huzi, and when I had nothing to do, I wanted to tease him, so I asked, "I said Huzi, you said there should be no resentful spirits in this tomb, right?" ”
Huzi this guy, he is not afraid of things like zombie zongzi, what he is most afraid of is the kind of things that can't be seen or touched, such as ghosts and other unwarranted things, as soon as he heard me say resentful spirits, Huzi's whole body trembled obviously, and the movements in his hands stopped, so he looked at me directly, and asked, "Old... Lao Bai, you... Don't the fuck... Don't scare Lao Tzu, this... In this world, which... How can there be resentful spirits, pure nonsense. ”
Huzi stammered as soon as he was nervous, and he said one thing on his lips, and he was afraid that he would die of fear in his heart.
I saw that his nervous appearance was very funny, like saying a few more words, but before I could open my mouth, the seventh master and Wang Chuyi walked towards us.
"Okay, don't scare him, according to my inference and that of Chu Yi, there should be a lack of oxygen in this tomb, so the torch will be extinguished quickly."
Anoxia? Hearing these two words, Huzi and I both stood up, the explanation that the seventh master said, in my opinion, is the most reasonable, as for the light absorption theory that Huzi said, it is pure nonsense, but now I don't know why there is an extreme lack of oxygen in the tomb, could it be that the green vines are the ghosts?
"Everyone bring diving oxygen cylinders, go in first, be careful of the vine rhizomes on the ground, don't trip over, I guess this vine should be poisonous." As we spoke, we all carried small oxygen cylinders on our backs, which were used for a very limited time, and could last about fifteen minutes, which meant that we had to search the entire tomb and find our way to the front within fifteen minutes, otherwise we would be trapped in the tomb once the oxygen ran out.
When we were all ready, the seventh master nodded to us, and walked towards the tomb first, I followed him, just entered the tomb, stepped on the rhizomes of those vines, only felt as if there were thousands of ants crawling around under the feet, the rhizomes of these vines are not static, on the contrary, they are still very active, just like the arteries and blood vessels of the human body, beating rhythmically and regularly.
The Seventh Master was in front of me, walking straight towards the wall on the left side of the tomb, and it was obvious that he had also found the crack!
The seventh master and I quickly bypassed the Taishi chair, and soon arrived at the leftmost wall of the tomb, the seventh master put on gloves, brushed off the leaves of the vines on the wall, and sure enough, under the vine cover, there was a crack more than two meters high that was clearly visible, and looked along the crack, and found that there was a fork at the top of the crack, forming an irregular rectangle, the size was just about the same as the tomb door!
Seeing this, my heart became more and more excited, this must be a road, although it has been artificially built into a natural state, but traces of artificial excavation can still be found at the edge of this crack!
Just as I was excitedly looking for a way to open the tomb door, suddenly the seventh master patted me on the shoulder, and then pointed behind me.
I hurriedly turned around to look, only to see Huzi sitting on the Taishi chair, and the vines under his feet had begun to spread towards his legs, this time the kung fu had already climbed above his knees, Huzi kept twisting his body, trying to break free, Wang Chuyi was desperately pulling beside him, trying to pull Huzi out of the Taishi chair.
Seeing this, I didn't have the heart to find the opening and closing of the tomb door, so I hurriedly ran towards Huzi, grabbed his arm, and pulled out with Wang Chuyi.
Since we are now wearing oxygen masks, we can't communicate verbally, so I only found that Huzi was twisting his upper body desperately, and his arms were pulling back vigorously, as if he wanted to break free from my hand holding his arm.
I was stunned by his strange behavior, and subconsciously let go of my hand, and after the tiger freed his arm, he hurriedly pointed to his feet, and then shook his head desperately, nodded, as if he wanted to tell me something.
I looked at the place where he pointed and saw that the vines were desperately climbing up, and there was nothing else suspicious, so I took out my Miao knife and wanted to cut off the vines that were wrapped around the tiger's feet to see what was under the vines.
Just when I picked up the Miao knife and was about to cut down, Wang Chuyi hurriedly grabbed my hand, then shook his head vigorously, and then wrote the word "poison" in my palm.
I chuckled in my heart, and said that I almost killed the tiger, looking at Wang Chuyi's nervous appearance, the so-called 'poison' on this vine is definitely not ordinary, now we are all wearing oxygen masks, the effect is better than gas masks, we are not afraid of ordinary poisonous gas poisons, since Wang Chuyi is not allowed to cut it, then this poison is likely to be very corrosive, and the plant juice has some kind of strong acid!
I deliberately put away the Miao Knife, squatted down, and used my hands to remove the rhizomes of the vines that were climbing upward, and then a scene that frightened me happened, only to see that the bottom of the Taishi chair was actually connected to these vines! In other words, these vines all grew from this Taishi chair! Not only that, the four legs of this Taishi chair are deeply inserted into the ground, and if you look closely, the edges of these four legs still have traces of polishing, which is obviously artificially inserted!
Seeing this, I looked at Huzi again, and said that although Huzi was reckless, but in this dangerous situation, he would definitely not be idle to sit on this Taishi chair, it should be that he found something and couldn't communicate with us in time, so he sat on the Taishi chair.
At this time, I patted Wang Chuyi's arm and motioned for her to let go of the tiger and let him struggle on his own.
I saw Huzi twisting his body desperately upward, as if he wanted to break free from these vines, but just now I had used my hand to pluck the rhizomes of those vines, which were not very strong, with Huzi's strength, it should be easy to break free, if this is really the case, what is Huzi doing now?
Wang Chuyi and I stood next to Huzi and observed carefully for a while, Huzi kept twisting his body, and his hands kept waving at the two of us, as if to express something.
At this moment, I suddenly realized that Huzi was not twisting his body upward, but seemed to be downward! I saw him writhe and lift his ass a little from the chair, and then sit down violently, as if he was smashing the chair with his own body.
I suddenly understood what Huzi meant, there must be some mechanism under this Taishi chair, and if you want to trigger this mechanism, you must let the four legs under this Taishi chair penetrate deeper into the stone hole in the ground.
Thinking of this, I hurriedly turned around, and sat on Huzi's lap suddenly, the weight of the two of us added together, so that the Taishi chair instantly dropped a lot, I held the handle of the Taishi chair with both hands, and I could clearly feel that the bottom of the Taishi chair seemed to be vibrating, as if something was moving, before I could figure it out, the Taishi chair slowly rose again, obviously our weight was not enough!
So I hurriedly waved my hand to Wang Chuyi, she didn't seem to understand what I meant, and stood still and didn't move.
I was anxious, grabbed Wang Chuyi's arm, and then pulled back, and she sat in my arms at once, so the three of us sat on a Taishi chair, the weight added, just the entire Taishi chair sat down, this Taishi chair fell by ten centimeters.
At this moment, the seventh master suddenly ran over, patted me on the shoulder, and then raised his hand and pointed to the leftmost wall, I looked up, only to see that the wall that was originally full of vines turned out of a square opening at this time, and an irregular rectangular stone door was exposed, and there was a very long passage inside.
Seeing this, I hurriedly stood up, grabbed the tiger and rushed in the direction of the stone gate, after we got up from the Taishi chair, the Taishi chair began to rise slowly, and at the same time the stone gate was slowly closing!
Time was limited, so the four of us rushed to the stone gate as fast as we could, and before the stone gate could close, we rushed into the passage.
As soon as I entered, I heard a faint click from the stone door behind me, and the entire stone door was completely closed again.
After such a toss, our oxygen was about to run out, I quickly took out the lighter, and after the flint rubbed twice, the flames came out, and when I saw the flames coming out, I was relieved, so I took off the oxygen mask on my head.
"Damn, suffocate Lao Tzu, you two heads are like filling with water, you've been doing a lot of work there, if it weren't for ......" Huzi didn't finish speaking, and the seventh master hurriedly waved his hand.
"Don't talk! Here's something! ”
As soon as the seventh master's voice fell, all of us held our breath, only to hear a crisp snapping sound in this narrow passage, as if something was hitting the ground, this sound was very ethereal, echoing in the entire passage, and the listeners panicked.
I lit the torch, bold to go forward, the others followed closely behind me, walked about ten meters, I heard the sound of water droplets, pop, pop, very crisp, judging by the size of the sound, the place where the water dropped, should be very close to us, just when I was about to continue to walk forward, Wang Chuyi grabbed my hand suddenly.
