Chapter 18: The Open Coffin
We immediately moved and retreated that way.
There was a lot of space in this place, and a few of us quickly spread out behind those sarcophagi.
These sarcophagi are very strong, I'm afraid that the other party can't blow them up, and looking in the direction of the door from here, the door is slowly closing.
It's starting to get dark.
From here, we're pretty good because first I have to push the door open to get in.
And then, we were in the dark, they were in the light, and as long as we shot on time, it was really one shot.
No one can come, and it's still some distance from the door, so it's not easy to throw it in.
As soon as the door closed, it immediately went dark, and I heard Brother Hong gasping for breath, and a bright light appeared, which was the light of a flashlight.
"Just open one, and your eyes will adjust to the light." Brother Hong's voice said.
This is also right, otherwise when we push the door over there and suddenly see the light, our eyes will not be able to adapt to it, and this flashlight was pushed aside by Brother Hong, only shining on the giant coffin, even if we shoot in the direction of the flashlight, it will not hit us.
After preparing like this for a long time, those people probably guessed that we had an arrangement inside, so they didn't take action. They are also waiting for their chance.
We slowly relaxed, because now we have fewer people, but the terrain is favorable, so we are not too worried.
Brother Hong hid behind a coffin and asked, "Brother, what should we do now, we can't just hold on to it." In that case, we don't know what they do. ”
I looked around, and the light of the flashlight was very faint, and it was impossible to illuminate the whole space, and this kind of place was quite weird, which made people a little creepy.
Luckily, there was no sound, otherwise it would be really hard to get used to.
I took a few deep breaths, the air here was terrible and had a faint stench.
But it's hard to describe, because the smell is not like the one you normally smell.
Those little brothers also slowly relaxed.
Brother Hong immediately shouted: "Pay attention, don't relax, they are also waiting for us to relax." ”
Sure enough, as soon as the words fell, the stone gate was pushed.
Brother Hong didn't look at it, and immediately raised his hand to shoot it, it should have missed anyone.
But the stone door slowly closed again, and it seemed that the people outside were also a kind of test, mainly to see if we were on guard.
Brother Hong shouted: "Don't let up, they will test us at any time." ”
Those little brothers immediately became nervous again, I looked at Brother Hong, and said, "This is not a way, are we just going to face them like this?" ”
Brother Hong gritted his teeth and said, "What can I do then?" Is it still possible to negotiate? ”
That's a really good idea, and I think it's good if we can negotiate and reach a consensus, because we all have weapons in our hands now, and we can check each other.
But when I turn my head and think about it, it's still a little wrong, who knows what the other party thinks, in case we get mixed up and suddenly turn our faces, I'm afraid we'll be in trouble.
Because judging from their actions just now, they are all trained personnel, and we, the little brothers, are usually used to call people okay, and if we really move, we are really not opponents of others.
Of course, this also includes me and Brother Hong, if people really want to get us, I guess we won't even have a chance to fight back.
After waiting for a long time without movement, our mental state is also tired, people can't be in a state of tension for a long time, it's very tiring, unless it's really through rigorous training, such as being a soldier.
Brother Hong was obviously tired, and then said, "No, it's time to score." ”
As he spoke, he assigned a younger brother to keep an eye on the front, and the younger brother immediately took a few steps forward, came to the coffin closest to the door, and hid, staring at the door.
The rest of us hid behind the big coffin and rested.
The stone gate outside us would sometimes open a little, but as soon as we fired, they would leave immediately.
It seems that they are planning to rush up with us, and now it will be up to whose endurance can reach the end.
I rested for a while, and felt that my strength had recovered a lot, and when I was idle, I immediately became curious about this gossip yin and yang coffin.
This burial method is still available in some ancient books. But the one we see now is clearly much older.
If you look at it according to the current burial method, then in fact, all the gossip yin and yang coffins in later generations are wrong.
Because of the burial method of the Bagua Yin and Yang coffins in the back, two coffins are set up in the center, representing the male of the yang and the female representing the yin.
In the surrounding gossip position, those coffins generally do not bury people, but symbolically bury some hair or something.
And the biggest difference is that the coffin in the Bagua position is also buried horizontally, and it will not stand up like this.
Of course, these are all things that I have seen in some books, and I have never actually seen the content at all, but this is the case, which makes me more curious.
Thinking of this, I took out my flashlight and shone it around, intending to see the situation here, Brother Hong said, "What's the matter, brother, what did you find?" ”
I shook my head, I don't know if Brother Hong can see it in this darkness.
So he said, "No, I just feel fun, take a look." ”
The flashlight shone and it was a sarcophagus, the lid of which was facing us, and a symbol was engraved on it.
I slowly approached it, and there was a connection of six dots, which was actually the Gen in the river map.
I'll go, it's really interesting this time, is this coffin actually designed according to the river map?
In this way, in that period, gossip was not even mainstream?
It shouldn't be, it stands to reason that the Fuxi clan created gossip according to the river map, no matter how old this city is, it looks like it is a thousand years old, that is to say, this thing, no matter how far it goes, it can't catch up with the Tang Dynasty.
Artificially, I have a spectrum in my heart, sometimes, people will use some ancient technology, but it can achieve the role of protection.
I remember watching a TV series in which the Skynet system can intercept all wired and wireless signals, but it can't intercept the shortwave radio stations that have long been eliminated, which is probably what it means.
Then I looked at the coffin next to it, where there were four points of exchange.
I still have a good impression of this position, it was because of this position just now that we were able to escape, if it weren't for the stone bridge on the throne, I'm afraid we would have died in the mouth of that transparent monster by now.
Looking back, there is nothing here, strange, probably not.
I feel that it may be the result of the flashlight light, and the flashlight in my hand now is the kind of press-charging type, so the light is not very strong. I took a few steps closer, and there were no dots shining from the flashlight.
No, it's obviously set up in the way of Hetu gossip, how to say that there should be a dot here, but I missed it, maybe it's a dot of Kun.
Thinking of this, I looked up and down again, and there was still nothing.
I scratched my head strangely, this must be wrong, Brother Hong came over at this time, patted me and said, "What's the matter?" ”
I scratched my head, it's really hard to talk to him about this kind of thing. I had to say: "Strange, why is there no dot on this coffin?" ”
"What polka dots?" Brother Hong didn't understand.
I explained to him what I saw, and Brother Hong patted me and said, "Brother, you are a little too stressful of your river map gossip, maybe people don't set up river map gossip here, right?" ”
I thought about it for a moment and nodded, this is also possible, in case those dots in front of the ancients were just engraved for fun, and when it comes to this, it is not engraved, and the result makes me want to break my head now.
I smiled and said, "That makes sense, okay, I'll look at something else." ”
I circled around these coffins, and the other seven had dots on them, but this one didn't, which was hell.
Could it be that the ancients were really so boring?
The other seven just form the seven dot lattices of the river map, but only one is not engraved, which shouldn't be.
I recalled all the dot matrix of the river map I had just seen, and this place was missing exactly nine points.
That's a coincidence, isn't it? The most points are not engraved, is it impossible to engrave?
I can't figure it out, this situation is incredible, I believe that the ancients would not be so boring to carve and play, this place does not carve things, there must be his intentions, but what is the intention? It's puzzling.
Brother Hong arranged for another junior brother to change shifts at this time, and then came back, probably to find that I was still studying this broken coffin, and came over and said: "Brother, don't think about it, let's still think about it, how to deal with those talents outside is true, we have been here for an hour now, but depending on the situation, they haven't left yet." ”
"What a fucking obsession." I cursed, and indeed the most important thing for us now is to face those people outside.
I had no choice but to shake my head and prepare to follow Brother Hong out of here.
When I turned to go back, I looked back and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed through my mind.
Turning around, turning around, the movement seemed to be connected to the coffin, but the connection was just a feeling, and I tried this pose again, and I always felt as if I had forgotten something.
"What's wrong, bro?" Brother Hong asked at this time.
When he asked me this, my mind suddenly cleared up, patted my thigh, and said, "I figured it out, I said why there are no dots, this is a coffin back." ”
I only think about this one now, entirely because these coffins are all cuboids, and they all feel the same when viewed from any side.
If it were those coffins in the future, they would have figured it out a long time ago.
If this kind of rectangular coffin is not engraved with patterns, it is really impossible to distinguish which is positive and which is negative for a while.
And just now I was thinking about why I didn't engrave a dot on the cover, but I didn't expect at all that what I saw was a back.
Brother Hong also glanced back, and then said with a smile: "Don't say it, it's really that interesting." Go and look at the front to go. ”
The two of us immediately took the flashlight, turned the coffin, and shone it into the coffin.
I went, and this moment, almost didn't scare the hell out of me.
It turned out that the coffin had no lid, and in this sarcophagus, there stood a turquoise corpse.
