Chapter 181: The Man of the Four Corners
Zhang Wuxing nodded and said, "I'm sure." ”
Seeing Zhang Wuxing's very affirmative expression, Huzi and I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, among the ten coffins in the main tomb, this golden python burning coffin is the safest, because his organ is not located outside, but inside, and there will be no deadly organs such as shooting crossbow arrows.
But the most important thing about this golden python burning coffin is a burning word, which means that once there is a deviation in the way the coffin is opened, the inside of the coffin will instantly turn into a sea of fire, which will not only burn the body of the tomb owner, but also burn the burial goods in the coffin into ashes.
I took a closer look at this jade coffin, perhaps because the huge sarcophagus coffin in the underground palace just now was heavy and dangerous, and there were no traps in the furnishings in this tomb, and the jade coffin was in the style of a burning coffin, which should be the owner of the tomb who thought that no one could break through the outer layer of the giant sarcophagus.
In short, no matter what the reason, this jade coffin should not be dangerous, and the worst result is that we return empty-handed.
At this moment, Huzi suddenly said, "Lao Bai, look, there is a groove here!" ”
I hurriedly went around to the other side of the coffin, looked in the direction of Huzi's finger, and found that on the surface of the flat coffin, a fan-shaped groove suddenly appeared.
At this time, Zhang Wuxing coughed twice, and then said slowly, "Help me over and let me see." ”
Huzi and I came to the front of the coffin groove while carrying Zhang Wuxing, Zhang Wuxing looked at it carefully for a long time, and said, "This should be the mechanism to open the coffin, it seems that something is missing." ”
I stepped forward and touched it again, and said, "It looks like a key with a strange shape." ”
Huzi nodded and said, "I think, let's check this tomb again, maybe there are other discoveries." ”
Zhang Wuxing and I both nodded, although after nine deaths and a lifetime to come to this main tomb, according to Zhang Wuxing's speculation, there should be no more mechanisms here, but there are always accidents in everything, as the saying goes, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what if, in case you encounter any traps, Huzi and I are fine, Zhang Wuxing will be in trouble, and now he has almost lost his ability to move, and he can't dodge it at all when he encounters a hidden crossbow.
Huzi and I were holding torches and inspecting the entire tomb, when suddenly, Huzi shouted, "Lao Bai, there is something on the wall on my side!" Come and see. ”
I dared to rush over, and when I looked up with a torch, I saw a huge mural carved on the front wall with a very fine knife, which was too fine to be noticed, and because it was carved into the glass-like jade wall.
I looked at it carefully for a long time, I couldn't help but sigh, I didn't expect this Liao Wang is also an infatuated species, this wall is engraved with the story of him and a beauty, about the Liao King fell in love with a Central Plains beauty, this Liao Wang hereditary Yunnan, according to the customs of the ancient Dian Kingdom at that time, the Liao King could not marry a foreign woman, so the Liao King sent someone to secretly take the woman over, and secretly tied the knot, and finally he and the woman's affair was discovered, at this time the woman was pregnant, but was thrown to death by the sacrifice of the ancient Dian Kingdom.
Seeing this, I suddenly thought that the female corpse found in the tomb in the front hall before should be the woman described in this mural, according to the speculation on the mural, this woman should have died much earlier than King Liao, that is to say, this ancient tomb has already been built, and King Liao first placed the woman in the ancient tomb.
Thinking of this, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in my mind, and I hurriedly asked, "Huzi, is the jade piece found in the tomb in the front hall before?" ”
When Huzi heard me ask him for a spiritual weapon, he deliberately pretended to be confused and said, "What jade piece?" How did I not know? Where is it? ”
I snatched Huzi's backpack and scolded, "Damn, don't pretend to be with Lao Tzu, isn't the jade piece that the female corpse was holding in your hand before?" As I spoke, I took out the jade piece from Huzi's backpack, and the shape of the jade piece was almost the same as the depression in the jade coffin, and I was almost certain that this was the key to open the jade coffin.
At that moment, a faint cry was heard in the burial chamber, and it was very faint, and it sounded hollow, as if it was far away from us, and as if it was very close to us.
Huzi frowned and said, "Damn, it's this kind of crying again, I can hear it from time to time since we entered this tomb, and now when we get to the main tomb, his mother has started again." ”
I returned the backpack to Huzi and put the jade piece into my arms, not daring to be careless at all, listening carefully to the crying, for fear that something would suddenly happen at this critical time.
Huzi raised his flashlight and shone at the top of the tomb, and said, "This fucking doesn't have that kind of hollow iron ball that can make a crying sound, where did this sound come from?" ”
I made a silent gesture to Huzi, and then listened carefully, but the sound was so empty that there was an echo in the tomb, so it was impossible to determine the source of the sound.
Huzi turned on the flashlight, took a picture of it everywhere, and said, "I look at the tomb and it's evil enough, let's hurry up and open the coffin and leave." As soon as Huzi's words fell, the light of the flashlight just swept over the wall of a tomb.
At the moment when the flashlight swept to the wall, I seemed to see a child standing in the corner, and I was immediately shocked, so I raised the flashlight and shone it towards the corner.
The light of the flashlight passed through the refraction of the jade on the wall, illuminating the corner very brightly, and I saw a child dressed in white, standing there silently with his head down, his hair was very long, and he couldn't see his facial features, and he looked like he was only five or six years old.
Seeing this scene, Huzi and I were startled, and Huzi whispered, "Damn, shouldn't that be ......" Before he finished speaking, he saw the child's figure flash, and then disappeared.
My heart was shocked, and I quickly raised my flashlight to look around, trying to determine the location of this child, although we don't believe that there are ghosts in this world, but the environment we are in now, I still can't help but be afraid, in case he is a ghost, it is not a joke.
I was holding a flashlight to shine everywhere, and suddenly Huzi said, "Lao Bai, left!" Look to the left. ”
I looked in the direction of Huzi's flashlight, and saw a woman in red sitting on a stone bench, holding a wooden comb in her left hand, her long hair was like a waterfall, pouring down, and she was combing her hair in an elegant posture, and there was a person standing next to the woman in red, after seeing the person's face, Huzi and I couldn't help but be surprised, wasn't that person the Liao King lying in the coffin?
Huzi used a flashlight to shine on the men and women in the corner, I rushed to the coffin quickly, raised the flashlight and shone inside, only to see a male corpse lying quietly inside, the male corpse is very well preserved, and there is no decay, from the facial features of the male corpse, it can be seen that the man standing next to the woman combing her hair in the corner is the male corpse lying in the coffin, that is, King Liao!
Seeing this, I hurriedly turned my head to look at the corner again, but found that the person in the corner was gone, the woman who combed her hair, and the Liao Wang next to the woman, all disappeared, and only the faint crying sound still echoed in my ears.
