Chapter 498: Musty Rotting Corpse
After about half a minute, the seventh master quickly put away the tools in his hand, and then turned his head and said, "Wrong, we're all wrong!" ”
"What's wrong?" Huzi at the back asked loudly.
"The way this tomb door opens is not in this small secret door at all, and the ghost lock in this secret door is a trap! It's a lie! The real tomb door is above, diagonally above! ”
As soon as the seventh master's words fell, I couldn't help but want to lean out and look, but the rotating blade on the butt was too fast, and a few times I raised my head, before I could see the appearance of it clearly, the rotating blade slashed over, and I could only retract my head, otherwise I would be beheaded.
At this time, Huzi behind me muttered to himself and said in a deep voice: "Isn't that right? Why didn't I see it? ”
At this time, the seventh master began to climb forward, Wang Chuyi followed him, and began to slowly climb forward, when we climbed two or three meters, I looked up again, sure enough, above the top of our heads, there was an inconspicuous circular protrusion, this thing is a little higher than the wall, if we didn't lie on the ground, obliquely looking up, really can't find it.
I kicked Huzi behind me with my foot and asked, "Huzi, did you see that?" Topmost! Diagonally upward. ”
Huzi said, "See, it's a press mechanism!" I guess if you press this mechanism, three things will happen. ”
"Which three?"
"Either the spinning blade here will stop, or an extremely secret tomb door will be opened, or a deadly mechanism will be released, everyone will be finished, there are only three possibilities." As he spoke, Huzi kept staring at the bulge, and his eyes didn't move.
"What to do? To press or not to press? I asked.
At this time, the seventh master, Wang Chuyi and Huzi, the three of them all fell into silence, the atmosphere was a little awkward, and I said, "We have a two-thirds chance of winning, it's better to gamble!" ”
For my proposal, the seventh master did not express any opinion, Huzi agreed, Wang Chuyi objected, he said that I should not have a gambler mentality, in the ancient tomb all the possibilities are fatal, and said that if you really encounter the one-third possibility, everyone will have to die here.
I asked her if there was a better way, but she shook her head and said she hadn't thought of anything else.
"It's not a matter to spend here, I agree with Lao Bai's statement, go fucking and get a gamble, otherwise when will you have to lie here?" As the seventh master spoke, he pushed my thigh.
Now my position is completely out of reach of the bulge, and the only one among us who has a chance to touch the bulge is the Seventh Master, who is closest to the bulge, and with his skills, it is not a problem to jump on the rotating blade and climb the wall to press the bulge.
But at this time, the Seventh Master didn't know what he was thinking about, and he was reluctant to do it, I thought that the Seventh Master was the same as Wang Chuyi thought, and he was afraid of encountering the one-third probability, so he was reluctant to do it.
"Seventh Master, what's wrong? Is there any other way to do it? I asked.
The seventh master didn't speak, nor did he make any movements, we just lay on the ground and waited, about ten minutes of waiting, the seventh master suddenly said, "It's changed, it's different." ”
I hurriedly asked, "What has changed?" ”
The Seventh Master opened his mouth and said, "This place is different from the mechanism in the Loulan Ancient Tomb that I went to before!" ”
Huzi opened his mouth and said, "Nonsense, of course it's different, different tombs must be different." ”
The Seventh Master said in a deep voice, "The mechanism can be different, but there is only one way to design the coffin of the Nine Dragons, that is, it is built on the basis of nine tombs that are independent in the underground palace, but now in this passage where we are, there is no tomb at all!" ”
"What?"
"No burial chamber?"
"How is that possible?"
The three of us asked in surprise.
The Seventh Master said: "This place is very well closed, except for the short secret door we saw before, there are no other gaps, even if the tomb door is well hidden, there will definitely be flaws, and we crawled all the way over, the speed is very slow, and we look very carefully, there should be no missing places, but have you found the gaps?" ”
After listening to the seventh master, I hurriedly asked, "Then you mean that the secret door is a fake mechanism that deliberately lured us to be fooled, and now even the bulge is fake?" In other words, all the traps in this passage that we can see are bait, luring us to crack the traps, and then the traps are connected to other traps to kill us? ”
The Seventh Master's voice became deeper and lower, and he said, "Think about it, those who can reach this place are naturally experts in dismantling the number of mechanisms, and the builders of the ancient tombs know this very well, so they will be suspicious in this passage!" There must be other exits here, but it definitely won't be a burial chamber! ”
As he spoke, the Seventh Master began to climb forward again, this time the Seventh Master climbed very slowly, and while climbing, he smashed the bricks on the ground with his hands.
We immediately understood what the Seventh Master meant, since there were no gaps found in the walls on both sides, there was only one possibility for the passage, and that was to hide under these bricks!
Since there are gaps in the bricks on the ground, we will not easily find the path to the tomb hidden under any of the bricks.
The Seventh Master tapped the square bricks with his hands, trying to hear which square brick was empty underneath! If you can really touch a hollow brick, there is no doubt that the passage is hidden underneath.
We climbed like this for a long time, and suddenly the seventh master stopped, the atmosphere suddenly stiffened, we all held our breath, only to hear the seventh master's fist on the square brick "Bang... Bang... Bang bang bang..."
When I heard this, I felt a burst of excitement in my heart, yes, it was empty! The seventh master deduced well, there should be space under this brick!
At this time, the seventh master seemed to be very excited, and he had already taken out his saber and began to pry, wanting to pry up the brick.
After about two minutes, I smelled a strong musty smell, mixed with a lot of rancid smell, which made me want to vomit.
After smelling this smell, I immediately understood that there must be a lot of funerary goods in the corridor below, otherwise there would never be this smell, although this smell is very bad, but we are all willing to smell it, because only close to the main burial chamber can we smell this musty smell, and once this musty smell appears, it means that there are a large number of funerary goods in the tomb.
Huzi was the last person to smell this smell, but the moment he smelled it, he opened his throat and howled, "Hahaha, that's right, that's right!" If you want to get rich, go to the tomb robbery and become a 10,000-dollar household overnight! ”
Huzi looked very excited, and the seventh master had already carefully begun to climb down the passage.
When he got into the passage, Wang Chuyi climbed forward two or three steps, lying on the entrance of the passage and shouting, "Seventh Master, what's going down there?" ”
The voice of the seventh master came from the passage below, "Safety, I haven't found any mechanism at present, you must be careful when you come down, slow down, don't step on anything!" ”
As soon as the seventh master's voice fell, Wang Chuyi had already begun to climb into the passage, and the tiger behind me kept urging me, making me a little annoyed, "Damn, that artifact is your father?" What to urge! ”
Huzi had a wicked smile on his face and said, "I know that if I can take it out, it will be closer than my own father." ”
I kicked him in the head with my foot and said, "Fortunately, I'm not your father, otherwise I would definitely break your leg, even if this artifact is your father, it won't run, why are you in a hurry?" It's a thousand-year-old tomb, and you're still short of it? ”
Huzi still had a wicked smile on his face, and said, "Isn't this a father and son who have recognized each other for thousands of years?" You can't understand this impatience. ”
As I spoke, Wang Chuyi had already crawled into the passage, and I began to crawl slowly towards the passage, and when I was directly above the passage, I shone it down with a flashlight, only to see that below was a square corridor, and our location should be directly above the corridor.
I carefully drilled into this brick opening, as soon as the upper body got in, I felt that someone was holding my shoulder, I turned my head to see, it turned out to be the seventh master, at this time the seventh master's face was green, and it looked very scary.
"I'm rubbing, Seventh Master, what's going on? Poisoned? I asked nervously.
When the seventh master was asked by me, he was also stunned for a moment, and said, "What is poisoned?" ”
As he spoke, the seventh master held my shoulders and helped me adjust my balance, and soon I arrived safely in the corridor.
"Your face, green!" I pointed to the Seventh Master's face.
The seventh master stretched out his hand and wiped it on his face, looked at his green palm, and said, "Oh, this is the paint, when I opened the square brick just now, the air poured in, and the thousands of years of paint suddenly volatilized, and I had no place to hide, so I could only be blown on my face, and it was not in the way." ”
While we were talking, I suddenly heard a crisp pop behind me, which made me shudder, and I quickly turned to look.
Only then did I find out that it was Huzi, the seventh master only cared about chatting with me, and forgot about Huzi, this Huzi was also anxious, and when he saw that no one helped, he drilled down and fell a dog to eat.
"Damn, when you see the artifact, you only care about making a fortune for yourself, and you don't say that you come to help Lao Tzu." After speaking, Huzi patted the dust on his body and stood up.
But at the moment when Huzi stood up, I clearly saw that behind Huzi, there was a woman in white with a cloak of hair, the upper half of the woman's body was white, the lower half of her body was a bright red skirt, her calves were also red, and she didn't wear shoes on her feet, so she stood silently behind Huzi without any movement.
Seeing that we were all staring at him, Huzi thought that he had just said the wrong thing, so he quickly scratched the back of his head and said, "Oh, brothers, I'm a big boss, and sometimes I don't pay much attention when I speak. ”
