Chapter 234: Life hangs by a thread
I carefully observed the structure of the tomb gate, and found that this tomb gate should be a movable mechanism tomb door, which seems to be a passage for the workers who built the ancient tomb back and forth to work, and when I came here, it was basically not far from the main tomb.
At this time, Wang Chuyi and Huzi had also passed the suspension bridge, and came to the front of the tomb gate to take a look, Huzi was also happy, and said, "It seems that we are not far from the main tomb, it is estimated that if we open this door, we will be able to reach the side hall behind." As he spoke, he approached the tomb gate.
When I saw his obscene appearance, I hurriedly stopped him and said, "Be careful, this is a trap tomb door, a single-leaf structure, there must be an open mechanism, maybe there will be crossbow arrows, our current position is very dangerous, if there are really crossbow arrows shot, there is no way to hide!" After listening to me, Huzi instinctively looked down, this platform is only three or four square size, the three of us standing on this platform, already feel very crowded, if the tomb door is opened when there is a mechanism, one is not careful, you may fall down.
At this time, Wang Chuyi suddenly turned around, pointed to the canopy, and said, "That guy is coming up, Bai Yu, hurry up and find a way to open the door!" ”
As soon as Wang Chu's voice fell, Huzi and I both noticed that a vague black shadow appeared under the canopy, and it was climbing up, although the speed was not very fast, but it was not far from our current position.
Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but feel nervous, and without thinking too much, I began to study the mechanism of this tomb gate.
I used a flashlight along the gap of the tomb door, little by little, and found that the tomb door was close to the rock wall, and the edge of the rock wall was also polished, and the gap between the rock wall and the tomb door could hardly even be stuffed with an iron wire, so I looked towards the outer mountain rock wall that wrapped the tomb door, and saw that this layer of rock wall had also been finely polished, and the polishing technique was better than before, and the whole surface was very smooth to the touch, and I couldn't find anything unusual at all.
This can make me anxious, I know that it is a machine tomb door, but I can't find the location of the mechanism, seeing that the ghost mouse Lao Jiu's body is getting closer and closer to us, once he climbs up, it will definitely be a fierce battle, not to mention that we are now physically exhausted, just the environment here, has made us unbearable, such a big platform, once the fight starts, we can't take care of the feet!
The more anxious I was, the more I couldn't find the mechanism, the whole person's mind was chaotic, and I began to recall the scenes after entering the tomb, and it took more than ten seconds, the general outline of the tomb, like a movie, flashed in my mind, and suddenly I remembered a detail, in the previous tomb, it seems that I have seen a similar tomb door, after thinking about it carefully, I suddenly reacted, the similar object seen in the tomb is not the tomb door, but the stone tablet! Wordless stele!
I carefully recalled the order of the stele at that time, at first we saw a stone stele that fell horizontally, and the head of the ghost mouse Lao Jiu appeared on it, at that time I still wondered, there was no wind or rain in this tomb, how could the stele fall for no reason, now it seems that it should be deliberate, it should be some kind of five elements gossip organ hints.
Thinking of this, I tried to look for clues around the tomb gate in the order in which the stone tablets were placed, and sure enough, near the rock wall of the mountain on the outside of the tomb gate, I found a very small notch, which seemed to have been scratched by a person with a knife, because the scratch was so small that if I didn't look carefully, I couldn't find it at all.
I saw that there were six of these scratches, five of which were vertical, about one centimeter long, and only one of which was horizontal, which was slightly longer than those vertical scratches if you looked closely.
I looked closely, and saw that the scratches were arranged in the same order as the tombstones that appeared in the burial chamber! I couldn't help but feel overjoyed, and said, "I know where the mechanism is!" ”
At this moment, Huzi said in a deep voice, "It's late!" That guy has climbed up! As he spoke, he lit a homemade gasoline bottle and was about to throw it out, when he heard a loud bang, and Wang Chu, who was beside him, took out his flare gun and fired a flare at the ghost mouse Lao Jiu, who was about to rush over.
After the high-temperature signal flare drew a parabola in mid-air, it hit the ghost mouse Lao Jiu impartially, and ignited him instantly, but unfortunately this signal flare did not repel the ghost mouse Lao Jiu, only to see that his whole body was on fire, and he jumped on the platform where we were.
Because the platform was too narrow, we didn't have room to dodge at all, so we instinctively leaned back, letting our backs against the cliff wall, and distancing ourselves from the ghost and mouse Lao Jiu.
At this moment, I suddenly felt a click behind my back, and I couldn't help but scream that it was not good, because I had just found the mechanism that opened the tomb door, and was about to open it, this ghost mouse Lao Jiu rushed up, and before I could react, the person was standing in front of the mechanism, and this accidentally retreated backwards, and hit the mechanism, only to hear the tomb door click a crisp sound, and the whole fell backwards.
At this time, Huzi's back was sticking to the tomb door, and as the tomb door fell, Huzi's whole person staggered backwards, slipped under his feet, and fell to the ground.
When Wang Chu saw that the situation was not good, he took out a pistol and snapped at the body of the ghost mouse Lao Jiu, that is, three shots were fired in a row, only to see that all the bullets hit, and the body of the ghost mouse Lao Jiu was hit by three blood holes, and blood splashed everywhere, but the momentum of his pounce on the tiger did not decay.
Huzi screamed in fright, took out the saber, and stabbed it in the chest of the ghost mouse Lao Jiu, the blade of the saber instantly sank into the body of the ghost mouse Lao Jiu, and at the same time, the ghost mouse Lao Jiu also pounced on the tiger, and the burning fire burned the clothes on the tiger Zi's body.
Huzi yelled "Quick, help me!" While shouting, Huzi struggled and kept kicking the body of the ghost mouse Lao Jiu.
Wang Chu and I saw that the situation was not good, and was about to rush over to help Huzi, only to see that the prisoner who grew on the body of the ghost mouse Lao Jiu was looking up at us, a pair of slender eyes stared at people's straight hair, and Wang Chu and I rushed forward The body stopped at once, Wang Chu raised his pistol and wanted to shoot at the head of the prisoner, but he was afraid of hurting the tiger, and he fell into a dilemma for a while.
At this time, Huzi shouted, and his feet violently exerted force, and he kicked the body of the ghost mouse Lao Jiu, I was on the side of the tiger, closest to him, and flew up with a kick, and kicked the ghost mouse Lao Jiu's stomach.
This kick almost used all my strength, fortunately, the ghost mouse Lao Jiu's body was very short, this kick directly kicked him flying, the tiger turned over, and rolled out from under him, at this time I hurriedly went over to help him extinguish the fire on his body, and then turned his head to look at the ghost mouse Lao Jiu, only to see that the ghost mouse Lao Jiu's body had stopped aside, motionless, and couldn't help but wonder, is it because my feet are too heavy? Kicked him to death in one fell swoop? It's not right to think about it, this ghost rat Lao Jiu is already dead, and it is the prisoner head who grows on him who is doing the trick!
At this time, I raised my eyes to look, but found that the prisoner head on the corpse of the ghost mouse Lao Jiu was gone, and when I turned my head to look, I found that Wang Chuyi was standing in place, staring at me coldly, and that look was exactly the same as when the prisoner looked at me before!
