Chapter 408: (Supplement) Seven hours

"Seventh Master, what now?" I had to turn my head and ask the seventh master, only to see that the seventh master's attention fell on the wall of the passage, while feeling the lines on the wall, he walked down cautiously, and did not hear what I said at all.

Seeing him like this, it seems that he can only follow him down, seeing that he observes the wall very carefully, I am also a little curious, so I also put my hand on the wall, carefully the lines on the coffin wall, I only feel that these lines seem to have seen somewhere, but I can't say, these lines are always irregularly bent downward, there are many stripes, but there is no crossing, they are in a relatively balanced state extending downward, I looked carefully for a long time, and did not find anything special about these lines, I don't know why the Seventh Master watched it so seriously.

In this way, we walked down thirty or forty steps, and only then did we reach the bottom of the passage, and I raised the flashlight to shine around, and I couldn't help but feel a heartbeat, it was the underground palace! This is the underground palace of the ancient tomb, and the main burial chamber must be near here, and it will definitely not be too far!

More excited than me is Huzi, when he realized that this was the underground palace, the whole person was about to jump, the excitement on his face could not be concealed at all, the whole person was in good spirits.

On the other hand, Wang Chuyi is also the seventh master, and the two of them are very calm, holding a flashlight to look around, while saying, "Be careful, there will be a lot of organs in the general underground palace!" ”

As soon as the seventh master said this, the excitement of Huzi and me disappeared at once, and the whole person was as if he had been sedated, and he quieted down for a moment, and began to search the entire underground palace with a flashlight.

After about twenty minutes, I suddenly heard Huzi shouting on the far left side of the dungeon, "Come on!" Brothers, come on! ”

Hearing the shouts of the tiger, we hurriedly gathered in the direction of the tiger, and when we arrived at the place, I saw the tiger raise a flashlight to shine a small square hole in the wall, and said, "This, this place has been moved!" ”

Huzi said this very panickedly, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva after speaking.

I'm confused, have I been touched? It is normal for people to be touched in the tomb, and some construction workers will take one or two dead weapons with them when they escape, which is a common thing, and it is not worth making a fuss, but why is Huzi so nervous?

"This ...... This...... This ......" Hu Zizhi pointed to the square hole in the wall, and said three times in a row, but he didn't say a complete sentence, I looked in the direction of his finger, and saw that the small hole in the square mouth was about the size of a fist, and the depth was more than 20 centimeters, it was a slender space, and it was obvious that there should have been something stored here, or something stuck in, and now it was taken away.

"It's... This... It's a trap! Someone has cracked it...... And...... And this mechanism has just been cracked! The traces of dismantling are still very new! ”

As soon as Huzi's words came out, it was like a bombshell, exploding directly in our minds. Cracked? And it's just cracked? Could it be that someone had already been here before we entered this underground palace? And the difference shouldn't be too long.

At this time, Huzi turned around, stared at me and the seventh master seriously, and said, "This organ... It shouldn't take more than seven hours for this mechanism to be cracked! The running water ash used to polish the wall of the machine is not completely dry! ”

Hearing Huzi's words, Wang Chuyi and I couldn't help but shout in surprise, "Seven hours? ”

Huzi nodded and said, "Well, that's right, it won't take more than seven hours, before we get here, someone must have already come, and successfully cracked the mechanism, found the exit and left!" This man must be a master, it took less than thirty seconds to dismantle this mechanism, and he is definitely an expert! ”

"Are you sure?" The Seventh Master asked very suspiciously.

Huzi nodded in affirmation.

Now everyone's hearts are starting to get hairy, I calculated the time, seven hours ago, wasn't it the time we entered the ancient tomb? Could it be that someone entered the dungeon directly during that time period? Recalling the previous scenes, huge warships, ghost towns, and cold and biting ice, this way has been very difficult, if it weren't for Wang Ying, an old guy who is good at mechanisms, I'm afraid we might not be able to get here, but now I found that someone had already been here, and quickly cracked the mechanism! The news was a blast.

The four of us looked at each other, and a person popped up directly in our minds - the wolf!

The news of this ancient tomb was provided by him, and if you want to say that whoever has the book to take a step ahead of us and come directly to the ancient tomb palace without us noticing it, I am afraid that he is the only one.

"Damn, we've all been fucked! This wolf wants to kill us, but also doesn't want to pull down any artifact, this guy is really vicious! The tiger stomped his feet angrily.

Wang Chuyi frowned and said, "Won't it be more terrifying than you think?" This wolf has actually been following us, looking for an opportunity to kill us, it is estimated that it depends on our tacit understanding, there is no way to start, seeing that the situation is not good, take the underworld weapon away first. ”

The Seventh Master nodded and said, "If this is really the case, it will be too terrifying, and this heavenly wolf's ability is too great!" ”

Just like that, the three of them are guessing who this person is, and I am raising a flashlight and starting to check the dungeon, anyway, the mechanism has been dismantled, I have no scruples, simply striding around in this dungeon, suddenly I found that not far in front of me, a wall, extended out a lot of black objects, hurriedly walked over, after getting closer, I found that it was a row of crossbow arrows, a row of crossbow arrows shot into the wall, the arrow has completely submerged into the wall, it seems that this crossbow arrow is extremely powerfulI took a flashlight and shone it in the direction of the tail of the arrow, and it seemed that the crossbow arrow should have been shot from the opposite direction, so I began to follow the crossbow arrow's flight trajectory in the opposite direction, and soon came to a stone pillar.

I saw that there were many circular holes arranged in a square up and down this stone pillar, and the diameter was the thickness of the thumb, and there were six horizontal and vertical arrows, and it was obvious that the crossbow arrows were shot from this stone pillar!

But the mechanism in this dungeon has been dismantled, how can the crossbow arrow be triggered? Could it be that the group of people who came in before came into contact with the mechanism first, and then went to dismantle the mechanism?

I took a closer look at the stone pillar, trying to find the place where the trigger mechanism was triggered, but after looking for a long time, there was no clue, so I had to give up for the time being, and now I am most curious about where these people have gone! Since they had already come to this dungeon seven hours ago, they would not have sat here to eat and drink for such a long time! Will definitely find a passage!

Earlier, when we came down the staircase overgrown with corpse mushrooms, we didn't meet anyone, and we didn't find footprints on the ground, which means that those people didn't take that passage, so there are only two speculations, first, they knew that the passage we came from was wrong and could not lead to the main burial chamber. Second, since they were no longer in this dungeon, they must have found their way to the main burial chamber.

But just now I have searched the entire underground palace, and I have not found any open tomb doors or passage entrances or other mechanisms, where did these people find the main tomb entrance, and how did they enter?

Just thinking about it, the seventh master and they also came over, and through their inference, the person who entered this tomb should not be the heavenly wolf, and Wang Chuyi's theory was completely overturned, the reason is that the heavenly wolf does not have the time to follow us and enter the underground palace!

"Did you find the entrance to the main burial chamber?" Huzi asked.

I shook my head and said, "I haven't found it, I've checked the entire dungeon, and there is no entrance to the tomb door and the corridor, the walls of the dungeon have been polished, very smooth, without the slightest gap, so there should be no secret door or anything like that, the dungeon has a total of eight stone pillars, two in a row, arranged longitudinally, very regular, and there is nothing abnormal, only on a wall on the left side of the dungeon, there are a lot of crossbow arrows, which should be shot from here." I pointed to the circular hole in the pillar in front of me.

Huzi and Qiye's eyes were instantly attracted, Huzi took advantage of his height, stretched out his hand and began to measure the distance between the round holes, and then actually stretched a finger along one of the holes.

"Haha, it's here!" As soon as the words fell, I watched Huzi's wrist shake violently, and then the whole finger was inserted into the hole, and then I heard a crisp click, and behind us, another stone pillar opposite the stone pillar with the hole flashed out a secret door about a meter wide, and a downward step was clearly visible.

Seeing this, I felt an inexplicable excitement in my heart, such a secret passage appeared in the underground palace again, and it must be the main tomb!

But at this time, the seventh master frowned, looked at the steps down in the passage, frowned and said, "It's another step down!" Now we have gone very deep, and ordinary tombs will never be so deep! ”

At this time, Huzi also nodded and said, "Yes, I also feel fucking puzzled." ”

At this time, I secretly asked Huzi how he found the hole in the stone pillar, which was the mechanism that opened the tomb tunnel.

Unexpectedly, Huzi looked at me mysteriously, laughed, and then said in front of the seventh master and Wang Chuyi, "What, we Lao Bai also don't understand, in this way, if you call me a teacher, I will tell you?" What do you think? ”

I was ridiculed by Huzi like this, and my face was a little unbearable: "I'm sorry, you don't talk about your fucking love, Lao Tzu is too lazy to pay attention to you!" ”

Although I scolded like this, I still wanted to know in my heart, and when Huzi saw that I lost my temper, he no longer held it up, and said, "Didn't you find that there are only thirty-five crossbow arrows on the walls of the underground palace?" And on this stone pillar, there are six circular hollows horizontally and vertically, and it is obvious that the crossbow arrows are shot from here, but why is there one missing? ”

Hearing Huzi say this, I suddenly realized that when I saw the crossbow arrows shot densely into the wall before, how could I have the heart to count how many ones, in this regard, Huzi was more careful.

At this time, Huzi spoke again: "Don't you think it's strange? Those people have the ability to crack the mechanism, but why do they need to trigger these crossbow arrows? There must be a mechanism! ”
