Chapter 176: Heartbeat

For me, if I encounter zongzi or other evil things, the gluttonous pattern on my hand will send a warning, but in the face of witchcraft, the gluttonous pattern on my hand is not so sensitive.

I stared vigilantly at the jar in front of me, and then glanced at Qian Lao in front of me, and swallowed my saliva involuntarily.

"Old Qian, what do you think will be in this jar?"

"Will it be the finished sorcery skull that was placed in the box like before, or the materials used to perform the sorcery?"

I asked, confused, that although both were related to witchcraft, they were very different.

If it's just a material for witchcraft, even if it's a little evil, it's far less terrifying than the finished witchcraft skeleton before.

"It's not clear, and the only way to know what's in it is to open this jar and take a look."

Qian Lao shook his head as he spoke, listening to me with a creepy twist.

Still open it to see? I wish I could stay away from these jars, and if I did open them and something weird appeared, I really wouldn't even have time to cry.

I don't want to experience how scary these things are.

It seems that the danger in this tomb is stronger than that of Xia Shang's tomb.

If it weren't for the fact that I was forced to break into such a tomb in search of a solution to witchcraft, I really wouldn't want to come to this tomb.

I don't think I'll ever want to visit these wizards' graves again in my lifetime!

But fortunately, Qian Lao just talked about it, and there was no sign of opening, which made me breathe a sigh of relief.

"It's a dead end, but this isn't the end of the tomb, and there must be some mechanism hidden on the walls around it."

"Hopefully we'll find the mechanism that opens the way to the next one from the walls and floors around us, or I'll eventually have to open the jars and see if we can find any clues inside."

Before I could let go of this breath, Qian Lao immediately spoke, which suddenly made my heart rise again.

I sighed helplessly, and now I could only hope that I could find a mechanism to open the passage on the nearby wall, so that we didn't have to open the jars in front of us.

Qian Lao and I scattered around, quickly looking for places around that might be hiding.

I, in particular, was so energetic that my eyes scanned every inch of the tomb like a scanner.

What Qian Lao said is not wrong, the polishing process on the walls of this tomb is indeed amazing, but it is precisely because of this that it seems that the entire wall has been connected into one, and on such a smooth wall, if there is any mechanism left, it will be very obvious.

This greatly sped up our search, and while searching, my hands kept tapping on the wall, whether it was the hidden mechanism behind the stone wall or the hidden passage, the sound of tapping would be slightly different from normal bricks.

After careful searching, more than an hour passed, and this more than an hour can almost be said to have no gain, which immediately made me shake my head in disappointment.

Throughout the day, there was no sign of any mechanism in the tomb, including the roof, which we carefully explored.

All the percussions were the same stone rattling sounds, not like there were any trap passages hidden.

I sighed faintly, stared helplessly at the center of the burial chamber in front of me, and took a few steps in this direction.

Now it seems that I can only find the answer in these jars that I am unwilling to open.

At this time, Qian Lao's eyes were also focused on the jars in front of him, and he took out the claw hammer in the bag, staring closely at the jars in front of him.

Even if Qian Lao didn't speak, I could feel the solemnity all over Qian Lao's body, and it was obvious that Qian Lao was also full of jealousy about these jars.

"Old Qian, do you want to open these jars?" I hesitated for a moment and slowly spoke, and the moment I approached the jar, I already had a vague feeling of unease.

"Knock ....."

Before Qian Lao could speak, I vaguely heard a strange sound.

The sound came from far and near, I don't know where it came from, it was a bit like the sound of a human heartbeat, but in terms of the frequency of beating, it seemed to be different.

At this moment, I made a silent gesture and stared at Qian Lao with a very solemn face.

Qian Lao was already an old man, and he was immediately silent in an instant, and he didn't even move a little on his body, and he also made a listening gesture.

At this time, the surroundings were so quiet that even the sound of a needle falling could be heard clearly, and in such a very quiet situation, the sound that resembled the heartbeat of a human became clearer and clearer.

At this time, I can also discern the direction in which the sound is coming from, and when I look in the direction, my heart can't help but rise to my throat.

The sound of a human heartbeat came from the jar in front of him!

It was as if I had been hit in the head with a sledgehammer, and my head buzzed with disbelief.

This, how is this possible!

The sound of a heartbeat should be a vital sign of the living organism, so why is it made in a jar?

Judging from the degree of decay of the previous skull, I am afraid that this tomb has a history of ** hundred years or even longer.

What is it that can live so long?

In fact, I have vaguely guessed that after the last time I went to the tomb of Xia Yan, I have realized my own shortcomings, so I have also read some books about witchcraft.

Most of the carriers of witchcraft are people, and there are very few animals as carriers, so if the things in this jar are also witchcrafted people, then it is too weird.

Even a person like Xia Yan, who can be said to be the task of the wizard king, and can build such a huge underground palace, is not capable of doing this.

Although the Xia Tomb also has a resemblance figure with vital signs, it is also the effect caused by the help of the Outer Heaven Divine Stone.

Could it be that the owner of the tomb here has reached such a level of skill? Just using witchcraft can save a person's heartbeat!

The more I thought of this, the more I shuddered, I am afraid that this trip is more dangerous than the Xia Tomb of Xia Di, I have a convulsion in my heart, it is because of the things brought out of the Xia Di Tomb that I have fallen into this kind of petrified witchcraft, maybe in this tomb, before the petrified witchcraft is lifted, there will be a new kind of witchcraft.
