Chapter 14: Step In
Da Lei leaned against the stone beast statue and gasped for breath. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Cold sweat slid down his forehead, and his eyes stared at the coffin.
That's right! The coffin is open! Definitely not by yourself! It's certainly not the coffin that opens automatically! Don't......
Sizzle...... The back of his neck was cold.
For a long, long time, there was no movement. Da Lei's violently beating heart gradually stabilized. He wiped his forehead, sat down on the floor, and told himself to be calm and conserve his strength.
The "hole" on the wall more than ten meters above, the door he had entered by mistake, the light had completely dimmed. It looked like it was already dark outside.
Xiaohai ......
Thinking of this, Da Lei's heart tightened, and he didn't know how this child was doing now.
Damn it! He cursed himself! The fists clenched subconsciously. What the hell is this place of runway!! Da Lei, Da Lei! Forget about your own crimes, why do you have to pull Xiaohai!
He clutched his hair, and the mood that had just calmed down boiled again, and he looked even more restless in the light of the torches.
The air here is not circulated, and it is 100 feet deep, and it is unusually cold. A strange smell permeated.
Mixed with gore, rotten, and with a hint of sweetness.
Da Lei smelled a headache. He closed his eyes tiredly, the blood from the wound on his leg had coagulated, and although he bandaged it, the limited conditions were undoubtedly a drop in the bucket. The pain only increased, and it came in waves, as if all the blood vessels were rapidly inflated, and then countless small knives kept cutting inside......
He leaned his head back against the statue of the stone beast.
His clothes were already soaked, and the stone beast seemed to be smooth and cool, so he felt a little better against him. After a pause, Da Lei opened his eyes, he looked at the coffin with some hesitation, the dark gap was like an invisible hand, seducing him over. After thinking about it, although he was still a little afraid, he still held the stone statue up and walked over with a hard head.
All this, step by step, to this day, is definitely not accidental!
Everything happens inevitablely, they are like bombs lurking at the feet of him and Xiaohai, and if you accidentally step on them, they will explode a strange illusion in the sky. It's a veiled labyrinth, door after door, trap after trap. If he doesn't stand up and lift this layer of mystery, he will never know.
This tomb hole is one meter above his head, although it is an earthen inner wall, but it is very hard, Da Lei wants to use his hand to buckle out a few fulcrums that can stand on his feet, tried several times, his fingertips have been worn out blood, but this wall has not even dropped a grain of soil.
Odd......
It's made of sand, but how can it be so strong? Even if it's a brick, he can drop a few scum if he tosses it so much! Da Lei looked around, hoping to find other auxiliary tools, he was still hesitating just now, not knowing whether to look at the coffin, but at the moment he was anxious, eager to have a wing to fly up. Just as he was looking for tools, Da Lei seemed to notice something, he stared at the tail of the stone beast statue, and then looked at the tomb, thoughtful.
The tip of the tail is facing the lower center of the two tombs, and the distance is a little far, and Da Lei can't estimate the specific location. He spread out his hand and pressed hard against the nearby wall, the hard particles of earth rubbing against his palm, and after a few times, nothing changed. He paused to continue thinking.
The stone beast statue hundreds of meters high made him unable to see his face and did not know what was carved. He remembered the pattern of the wolf's head and human surname carved on both sides of the tower when he came in, could it be that the stone statue here was also a wolf? Da Lei looked at the claws of the stone beast statue, the front five claws, and the back four claws. There are wolf claws. But he still couldn't tell that Uncle Xiang had raised a soil dog before, and he also had wolf claws.
The stone beast sat with its tail raised, unlike dogs, and did not wag its tail in order to please people. They are arrogant and ferocious by nature, and their tails are their symbols, and their severed tails, no matter how noble they are, how brave and brutal, they will not be the king of wolves, nor will they be favored by she-wolves. Even when they walk, most of their wolf tails remain upright to maintain balance.......
Wait, erect?
Da Lei walked quickly, and made a small half circle, this stone beast statue is really too big, he walked out of breath, staring at the tail. Although the tail is straight, the tip of the tail is slightly upturned, and it is impossible to see it at all if you don't look closely. He stared in the direction of the point, groping his way along the wall, his broad palms rubbing against him hard as he received the baptism of rough sand. Suddenly, Da Lei stopped, stepped back again, slowed down, explored extremely slowly, and pressed a little bit. Over here? No, he held the torch and looked at the tip of the tail of the stone statue, and leaned towards the **** again.
It's almost ... He picked up his speed and felt an extremely soft area!
It was only half the size of his palm, and with a little exertion, half of his wrist sank into it.
"Click" "Click" "Click"
The huge stone beast statue in the center began to turn, and at the same time, the walls also changed, and the round inner wall with many holes and holes actually rotated in a staggered manner! Da Lei held the torch and watched the sky fall, only to hear a loud "boom", accompanied by a violent shaking that made him stumble under his feet, his center of gravity was unstable and fell to the ground, the torch fell to the ground and was extinguished, and it was dark in an instant. But the earth shook violently! He only felt that although he had fallen to the ground, he was about to float! In a panic, he touched the front paws of the stone beast, and clung to it, he only felt that the entire building of hundreds of feet was falling down! In the darkness, smoke rises and loud noises erupt! The coffins seemed to collide with something, and there was a crashing sound!
Resounding shocks!
Da Lei closed his eyes, his whole body was shaken apart, his hand slipped away from the stone beast statue, and with this sudden collapse shook in mid-air, his head hit the stone beast statue with a bang and slammed into the wall again! The head buzzed and exploded! There was a strange noise that continued intermittently in my ears, first faintly caught in the shock and shaking, but then surging more and more violently, and finally the sound of the building sinking had been masked!
The abrupt voice wailed incessantly, pouring in from the left and then to the right, back and forth between the ears. Da Lei was confused, he couldn't tell whether the sound was transmitted to his head from the outside world, or the auditory hallucinations in his head after being hit!
Ten thousand souls! Hundreds of people cried together! Screaming and miserable! Deter Danger!
It's like a sudden disaster, and the people cry for help!
Da Lei heard it so clearly, his heart sank at that moment, this voice may be the living master of these coffins!
That's right...... The black coffin, died violently and cursed malice. Thousands of coffins, thousands of shouts! It's like it's about to tear in his ears!
Da Lei only felt that he was about to faint in this sea of weeping.
After a long time, the voice dissipated, and Da Lei woke up in a daze, his vision blurred. He had a headache and a loud "ding" in his ears. Da Lei couldn't hold back the soft shout of "Ah...", covering his head and looking unbearable.
The pain slowly faded. He slowly opened his eyes again.
amazed
- As before, there was no imaginary mess, the statue of the stone beast stood in the center, he fell behind the statue of the stone beast, but the torch was broken in two, and the backpack was at his feet.
But......
He raised his head, and the tens of thousands of tombs were all lit!!
Each of the tombs emitted a faint yellow light, gathering together to envelop the hundred-foot-tall building, which was not as high as the ceiling.
He seemed to have touched the mechanism, which caused the building to plummet to the ground.
Da Lei estimated the time and speed, his brows tightened, and it seemed that he was trapped a hundred meters deep.......
Xiaohai ......
Da Lei sighed......
Don't be surprised.
Then Da Lei shook his head and smiled bitterly, you can't take care of it yourself, and you still worry about him!
Looking around, where he touched the mechanism before, there was a collapse of a hole about two meters wide and three meters long, and there were stairs inside! It looks like a secret passage leading inside. The candlelight on both sides was extremely faint and still flickering, making it all even more strange and mysterious.
Da Lei walked along the inner wall. As he expected, the coffin with the lid open and he wanted to find out was gone.
Unexpectedly, these sorts changed.
Da Lei circled back to the original point, he picked up his backpack, stroked the wall, and walked inside little by little.
It was not as depressing and mildew as expected, but the flickering and faint candlelight made him a little uncomfortable, and it took a while to get used to it, Da Lei came to the first floor, and he was stunned when he came up.
When he was outside, he thought that only the outermost layer of the inner wall was a burial chamber. When I came in, I found that there were countless holes lined up inside!
The criss-crossing corridors emitted faint light, showing that tens of thousands of coffins were silent. Da Lei smacked his tongue and shook his head, what kind of place is this!
Da Lei walked in too slowly, on the one hand, his leg was injured and he couldn't move freely. On the one hand, he was afraid that if he walked too fast, he would lose his way. After walking for a while, there was nothing unusual here, a coffin was placed in each grave cave, a turnip and a pit. He had been observing the outermost layer, which was transparent inside and out, and the stone statues on the outside were turning in circles in front of him. Yes, I am still unwilling, where did the coffin with the lid open go? This is not to mention that there are nearly 100,000 caves, how to find them!
To no avail, he walked down the corridor towards the inside.
The good news is that the light inside is a little brighter than the outside, but there is a very strange smell, which is the aroma.
It's very light, and it can almost be ignored, but Da Lei's nerves have always been tense at the moment, so he is extremely sensitive.
He had smelled it when he was outside, but it was more bloody than that, presumably covered up by his own leg injury. He stopped, leaned against the wall, squinted his eyes and looked closely, curtain, widening.
The wall turned out to be densely packed with small white flowers!
The reason why it is described as dense is because there are really too many of them. Da Lei looked at several walls one after another, and the results were all the same. He closed his eyes and sniffed carefully, and sure enough, the fragrance came from there. seemed to react, Da Lei immediately covered his nose and secretly scolded himself for being too reckless, this strange flower still has a fragrance, what if it is poisonous?
After thinking about it, he was helpless again, what about being poisonous? There are white flowers everywhere in this confined environment, could it be that I still don't breathe? With that in mind, he leaned in a little closer. The flowers are extremely small, even smaller than a grain of sand! In such a dimly lit environment, it's no wonder he can't see it!
He stretched out his hand and clasped it, the wall was slightly softer than the outside, he plucked a white flower, put it on his fingertips, and pointed it at the light of the candlestick...... His eyes hurt when he saw it, and he always felt as if he had seen this flower somewhere, but he couldn't remember it at all.
"How can this place bloom?" Da Lei shook his head and muttered to himself.
The road is like a sheep's intestine twists and turns, and finally it came to a dead end, a closed stone door stands in front of him, it is covered with dust, uneven, Da Lei guessed that there should be carvings on the door. He walked over and helped him, and the carved pattern gradually became clear, two grinning imps, opposite each other on the left and right.
Little ghosts, most often refer to children who died young. It's not bad by nature, it's fun and mischievous. Da Lei remembers that it was said in the commentary that it was rumored that in the Ming Dynasty, there were Taoist priests who collected stillborns, premature children who died, and used spells to make them live on tokens, such as puppets, combs, jewelry, and so on. Then sell it to the rich and noble, which can help them accomplish some purpose. However, the price is to feed, to feed juice when you are alive, and to be bloodthirsty when you die. After drinking the blood of the master, he will recognize him as a parent and fulfill his wishes. But in the end, the keeper died violently, and his blood was deflated.
He pushed it twice with his hand, the door did not move, Da Lei took two steps back, the door was divided into two halves, it was an arc arch, the little ghosts on it squinted and laughed at each other, and the one on the left was a girl, two dimples, but the smile was particularly weird. On the right is a boy with two small tiger teeth. Wrong... More like fangs.
At first glance, there was nothing wrong with it, but on closer inspection, the girl was holding a sachet in her hand, but the port was ripped open, and the rope tied was across the two doors, and the other end was in the boy's hand.
Da Lei suddenly realized that the girl was not laughing, but crying, blaming the boy for mischievous and unpacking her sachet. He pondered for a moment, took out the knife given by the sixth child from his backpack, and lightly scratched it on the rope that the boy was pulling in the middle of the two doors.
"Squeak......" The door opened.
At this time, he was a little hesitant, even if he stood at the door, he could feel the deep and strange aura inside. He subconsciously rolled down his throat, paused, still clenched the knife in his hand, and stepped in.
As soon as he stepped in, the stone door closed automatically with a "clang".
Da Lei's heart also trembled.
When I first entered, the partition inside was very low, and Da Lei had to bend over. After walking for a while, it gradually became more spacious.
The two grinning imps outside the door, the moment they closed them, their eyes suddenly widened with anger, and they were fierce and terrifying.
