Chapter 501: First Come, First Come
I took a few steps forward with courage, and when I reached the edge of the gap, I shone it with a flashlight, and I saw that there were many white bones in this gap, just where my flashlight could shine, there were more than a dozen, and it was estimated that there should be a lot of places where my flashlight could not shine.
The posture of these bones varies, but judging by their movements when they died, they must have been in great pain, and many of the bones were dark black, and judging by my experience, these bones should have been soaked in mercury for a long time.
At this time, the seventh master and Huzi also came over, and after seeing the situation in this gap, Huzi also gasped and said, "Damn, so much?" Who are these people? ”
The Seventh Master opened his mouth and said, "Who else can it be?" Surely it won't be a relative of the emperor, it should be a worker who built the ancient tomb, I think this crack was dug by them, it should be to open a rat path to survive, but I don't know why the mechanism was triggered, causing the mercury to pour in, drowning alive in the mercury. ”
As he spoke, the Seventh Master clasped his hands together and made a bowing motion, which was a little consolation for these dead souls.
"What's the matter with the blood on the dragon pattern stone tablet?" Wang Chuyi asked.
This question is what I am most concerned about, since there are blood stains on the dragon pattern stone plaque, it proves that someone must have touched it!
I searched the whole chamber with a flashlight, and found no corpses, except for this gap, the whole chamber was almost clean, with no funerary goods or any superfluous decorations.
The Seventh Master couldn't help frowning, and said, "Who is the one who turned the dragon pattern stone plaque?" ”
Huzi glared and said, "Damn, it doesn't matter who he is, Seventh Master, you first turn this stone tablet, and then talk about breaking the mechanism." ”
The Seventh Master shook his head and said, "This dragon pattern stone plaque has been rotated by someone, and the mechanism has been lifted, the person who rotated the mechanism must be a master who is proficient in the mechanism, or it is a participant who has built this ancient tomb mechanism, and it is impossible for ordinary people to understand the layout of the dragon pattern stone tablet." ”
As soon as the seventh master's voice fell, I began to worry in my heart, the stone plaque was once turned by someone? And when we walked all the way, we didn't find any corpses at all, but judging from the blood stains on the stone plaque, the man must have been injured, and the injuries were not light.
Will a seriously injured person be able to get out of this much-armed tomb alive? If he hadn't walked out, where would the body be?
A series of questions flashed through my mind, and before I could figure it out, the seventh master waved his hand at me and motioned for me to hurry out.
After I went out of this ancient tomb, the seventh master checked the dragon pattern stone tablets in other tombs one after another, and found that the other stone tablets had also been turned, and there were blood stains on the stone tablets.
Huzi said with a gloomy face, "Seventh Master, do you think it will be another group of tomb robbers?" They also know how to crack the coffin of the corpse carried by Kowloon, so they turned the stone plaque, could it be that the coffin in the main tomb has been opened? The unicorn eye was also stolen out? ”
After listening to Huzi's words, I chuckled in my heart, and the face of the seventh master also changed, the unicorn eye is too important to me and the seventh master, whether the 'curse' we have suffered can be unraveled, it all depends on this unicorn eye, if it is really as Huzi said, the unicorn eye has been stolen, it is undoubtedly a heavy blow to us.
"No, no, there shouldn't have been stolen!" After thinking for a while, the seventh master said categorically.
"Why?" Huzi and I asked at the same time.
The seventh master opened his mouth and said, "The first unicorn eye is in our inverted fighting world, it is a top one treasure, no matter who gets it, they will be in a hurry to make a move, but such a priceless treasure, ordinary businessmen dare not accept it, at present, I know that only three large commercial houses are collecting this thing, and the highest price is Boss Jin, if someone really steals it, then Boss Jin will definitely receive some news." ”
"And the second?" Wang Chuyi asked.
"Second, when we came in, the two tombs we came across, the mechanism in the tomb was not cracked, and the dragon pattern stone tablet inside was not rotated, all of which shows that the mechanism of the Nine Dragons carrying the coffin has not been completely broken, so it is impossible to open the coffin."
After listening to the analysis of the seventh master, I breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that this Nine Dragons carrying the coffin is not an ordinary coffin, if you don't turn all the dragon pattern stone tablets in the nine tombs, you will definitely not be able to open the coffin.
I looked back at one of the burial chambers, according to the analysis of the blood stains on the dragon pattern stone tablet, the blood on the stone tablet had existed for at least ten years, if someone really entered here ten years ago, facing the delicate mercury mechanism under the tomb, how could they use to empty the entire tomb without causing any ripples in the mercury?
Although I don't understand, but the seventh master's mind doesn't seem to be here at this time, he has already walked towards the east side of the underground palace, Huzi and Wang Chuyi also followed, when I chased over, we have reached the easternmost wall of the underground palace.
According to the Bagua Ancient Compass in his hand, the Seventh Master had already deduced the activation mechanism of the hidden corridor when he entered the main tomb.
Just when the seventh master raised the flashlight and shone it towards the wall, he suddenly found that a bloody handprint with a very obvious outline appeared on the wall!
This bloody handprint was impartial, and it was slapped in the middle of a square brick on the wall, and the position was impartial, I don't know if it was deliberate or by mistake.
It's just that after seeing the bloody handprint, the seventh master's face became extremely ugly, and even his facial muscles began to twitch slightly.
"Seventh Master, what's wrong?" I asked hurriedly.
At this time, the seventh master said in a deep voice, "Be mentally prepared, it seems that Huzi's speculation is right, someone has already entered this main tomb!" ”
After listening to this, I was shocked, and looked up at the bloody handprint, if nothing else, the bloody handprint on this wall should be the same person who left the bloody handprint on the dragon pattern stone tablet we saw before, seeing this, I suddenly understood, the location where the bloody handprint appeared, should be the location of the mechanism that entered the main tomb to hide the passage, the owner of the bloody handprint obviously also knew the structure of this mechanism, only that place appeared on the front wall, and there was not a drop of blood in other places.
This means that the owner of the bloody handprint can see the location of the mechanism at a glance, and the technique is fast and accurate, and there is almost no hesitation, and he hits directly with one blow and opens the entrance.
At this time, Huzi stepped forward and said, "Even if someone has entered the main tomb, what can it do?" Seventh Master, didn't you say that if the dragon pattern stone tablets in the nine tombs were not all rotated, it would be absolutely impossible for the Nine Dragons to carry the corpse coffin to be opened? ”
The Seventh Master was silent for a while, then raised his head and said slowly, "If it's that person, you should be able to do it!" ”
"Who?" We all asked nervously.
"Zhang Wuxing's grandfather!"
"The guy with the tattoo on his arm?" Huzi asked
The seventh master nodded, did not speak, and was silent for about five or six minutes, and then said again, "He is an old-timer in the inverted fighting world, and his skills are so clever that only a few people can fully understand it until now, and this person's background has always been a mystery, even his closest people don't know, and even Zhang Wuxing can't understand where his grandfather came from, where he is from, and he doesn't even know his grandfather's true age." ”
After speaking, the seventh master paused, frowned, and said, "Do you know how old his grandfather is?" ”
I carefully recalled, although I had a relationship with this person, but I also met him in an extremely dimly lit room, and I could only vaguely see it, but judging from his speech and body shape, I estimated that he was only about forty years old.
But at this time, the Seventh Master slowly shook his head and said, "At least eighty years old." ”
As soon as the seventh master said this, the three of us exclaimed in surprise, and Wang Chuyi's eyes widened even more, with an expression of complete disbelief, and he said, "No!" I always thought it was just the man's seniority. ”
At this time, the seventh master looked at me and said: "Bai Yu, the matter of the unicorn eye, the two of us know best, the radioactive material on it will make people's skin mutate in some way, which is what outsiders call the 'curse', the unicorn eye in Boss Jin's hand will accelerate the aging of people's skin, so we need to find another unicorn eye, use the radioactive material on it to neutralize, and then return to a normal state." ”
I nodded, and suddenly understood something, so I said, "Seventh Master, you mean that Zhang Wuxing's master has seen another unicorn eye, or that he has stolen that unicorn eye!" He also fell under a curse, but the curse is the opposite of the curse on us, which slows down the aging of the skin! ”
The Seventh Master nodded, and said in a deep voice, "It's very possible, if someone can open the dragon pattern stone tablets in only six tombs and be able to open the Nine Dragons Coffin, I can't think of a second person besides him!" ”
After the seventh master finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the wall of the tomb, and then slapped heavily on the bloody handprint, only to see that the square bricks on the wall were easily slapped into by the seventh master.
At this time, the seventh master said, "No matter what, since we have arrived here, let's go first to have a look, and there are no other traces found along the way, which proves that he took a different path than ours, according to the experience of his inverted bucket back then, if he encounters great danger, he will definitely fight back in the ancient tomb!" ”
Hearing this, Wang Chuyi immediately spoke, "Seventh Master, what do you mean is that the external mechanism of this Nine Dragons Carrying the Coffin has not been completely broken, even if he has the ability to open the Nine Dragons to carry the Coffin, he will definitely encounter * trouble!" Maybe they'll fight back in the main burial chamber and get out? ”
The Seventh Master nodded.
At this moment, the entire dungeon began to tremble slightly, and there was a loud bang in the middle of the dungeon, and the smoke and dust instantly filled the entire dungeon.
