Chapter Seventy-Four: Teammates
It's just that I don't know who it is, if it's a master like Baitang Pear or Hidden Dragon Crouching Tiger, then the certainty of opening the coffin will become much greater.
I slowly stood up and moved my joints gently, and although I didn't know if the person who had fallen would make it here, I still had to move early.
In the course of the activity, I yawned a long time, to be honest, it has been a long time since I went to the grave, I am now sleepy and tired, if it were not for the current surrounding environment, I am afraid that I would have found a place to sleep.
After a brief movement, I took out a bottle of mineral water from the package, poured some less water on the palm of my hand, and rubbed it on my face.
The cold feeling in the tomb and the occasional wind that could not touch the droplets on my face constantly stimulated my facial nerves.
Suddenly, I felt that my sleepiness had dissipated a lot, and my whole body was much more energetic.
When I had done this, I stood there and stretched, and after a few moments, the corners of my mouth hooked slightly, for in the distance I faintly heard footsteps coming towards me.
It seemed that the man who had fallen had solved his trouble, and the sound was getting closer, and I could clearly hear the footsteps of this person coming from behind.
As I passed through the tombway, I noticed that some of the walls seemed to be hollow, and it was possible that they were connected to some of the passages, and it was very likely that this person had stepped on other mechanisms and fell on the same path as me.
Within a moment, I saw a staggering figure break out of the tomb.
This person looked very embarrassed, his clothes were in tatters, and his face was full of dust, but through the light of the bright flashlight, I could vaguely distinguish that this person was a crouching tiger.
To be honest, I was a little surprised, Crouching Tiger was the first to be targeted by that zongzi, but I didn't expect to come here alive.
And although Crouching Tiger looks more embarrassed, there are almost no injuries on his body, and he can barely be regarded as uninjured.
After Crouching Tiger saw me, his eyes lit up visibly, and then he looked at the two coffins behind me, and his eyes lit up even more terrifyingly.
"Little brother, I didn't expect to meet you here, it's really fate." Crouching Tiger let out a long sigh of relief and half-sat on the ground, apparently exhausted enough from the time the group had been separated.
This is not surprising, both the speed and strength of the zongzi far exceed the group of ghouls we saw last time and the zongzi in the bronze coffin.
After performing that hand of drumming, he consumed a lot of physical strength, not to mention that he was chased by Zongzi later and fell off the trap.
It is estimated that if I had encountered such a thing, I would have lost my life a long time ago, and Crouching Tiger can still come here, which is indeed admirable.
"Senior Crouching Tiger, you also stepped on the mechanism and fell?"
I smiled slightly and asked, at this time my heart is in a much better mood, the person who came down is a master like Crouching Tiger, so that I can be sure of opening the coffin.
"That's right, I got separated from the Hidden Dragon, and when I stepped on the mechanism while dodging the zongzi, I fell into a stone room, and fortunately, if I guessed correctly, this should be the tomb area, but I didn't expect it to be hidden under the tomb road where we were before, if it wasn't for stepping on the mechanism, I really couldn't find here."
Crouching Tiger breathed over and over again, and while speaking, Crouching Tiger's eyes kept scanning the coffins in front of him.
After looking at it for more than ten minutes, Crouching Tiger's body was almost adjusted, and he slowly stood up from the ground.
"The material of these coffins is not ordinary, it should be some kind of rare wood, which can be preserved for thousands of years without rotting wood, not only because the material is good, but the treatment process is estimated to be the peak at that time."
"Such coffins are not cheaper than metal coffins, and even more precious."
"It seems that the person hiding in these two coffins must also be a high-ranking figure."
Crouching Tiger walked a few steps quickly, and when he arrived in front of the coffin, he stroked the lid of the coffin with one hand, obviously planning to open the coffin.
However, he planned to return to the plan, but Wolong did not open the coffin immediately, but a little inexplicable surprise flashed in his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.
I turned my eyes slightly, and the memory flowed quickly in my mind, and I looked at the two coffins in front of me with a somewhat familiar feeling, whether it was the coffin or the layout.
"This is a meridian coffin, it looks like two coffins, but in fact only one person is buried."
Crouching Tiger thought for a moment, then spoke.
When I heard Crouching Tiger's words, I immediately became stunned, no wonder Crouching Tiger did not open the coffin immediately.
After Crouching Tiger said this, I found information about this part in my memory, the meridian coffin is a kind of organ coffin.
One of these two coffins is a sub-coffin and the other is a noon coffin, in which the noon coffin is buried with people and burial goods, while the sub-coffin is empty.
Once the empty coffin is opened, the mechanism will activate instantly, and the coffin containing the actual burial goods will sink into the ground due to the movement of the mechanism.
This is only the best result, in the layout of the vast majority of meridian coffins, there are also other deadly mechanisms, and the moment the mechanism of the meridian coffin is touched, other truly deadly mechanisms will follow.
It can be said that the meridian coffin is like a time bomb, and the meridian coffin is the line of fire and the zero line of the time bomb.
"Senior Crouching Tiger, do you have a way to contact other people? The risk of opening the coffin is too great, and if you are not completely sure, it is likely to be carried. ”
"To be honest, if I was lucky, I didn't think I was lucky."
I stared at the coffin in front of me, my face was a little solemn, and I turned my head to ask Crouching Tiger.
It stands to reason that Crouching Tiger's status in the group is not ordinarily high, and it is not impossible for him to hold the intercom.
Crouching Tiger shook his head helplessly, withdrew the hand that was holding on to the coffin, took out a black walkie-talkie from his bag, and put it in my hand.
"Qian Sen did send me a walkie-talkie for easy contact, but it was hard to knock when I was dodging the zongzi chasing."
I took the walkie-talkie, my face was not very good-looking, the two indicators on the walkie-talkie were not lit at all, and the buttons did not respond, it seemed that it was really broken.
"It's going to be difficult now, the walkie-talkie is not good, so you can only rely on the two of us?" I muttered and handed the walkie-talkie back to Crouching Tiger, and then I pulled the compass out of my pocket.
There is no such thing as in the stone chamber before, where the compass needle fails, and the pointer points to the hexagrams of the various parties at this moment quite smoothly.
