Chapter 768: The Group Statue Falls
Leng Yue quickly descended to the ground and gathered with Xiaobai.
Normally, when we enter such a tomb, we have to leave someone on it to let off steam, otherwise if someone comes running up to us when we enter the tomb and unties our ropes, we will not find a place to cry.
But I don't feel sure when I think of the grave robbers who have scattered somewhere, and of the dreaded rolling lice, who put them on them.
After thinking about it, I felt that it was not practical to put anyone on it, so I decided to go crazy and bring everyone in. As for what will happen in the end, we will only have to talk about it then.
With the help of me and Shen Dali, Yang Qing and Zhao Zitong entered the thief cave one after another, and then Shen Dali and I entered.
For some reason, the moment I put my feet on the ground, I suddenly felt a little dazed.
Looking up at the upside-down statues above, I felt as if I was stepping on the ceiling, as if I could fall off my head and feet at any moment.
Not only me, but Shen Dali and them were also in this situation, they were all in a trance, their steps were also staggering, Yang Qing didn't even stand firmly, and had already fallen to the ground.
The huge feeling of dizziness made my stomach churn constantly, and I almost threw up.
"Could it be poisonous?" Zhao Zitong asked loudly with a blue face.
Except for Leng Yue, who had no feelings about it, Shen Dali was the first to return to normal.
Shen Dali told us that the reason for this dizziness should not be that the air in this ancient tomb is poisonous, but because our bodies are clearly stepping on the ground, but because of the scene in front of us, our brains have the illusion that we are hanging upside down in the air.
The illusion arises when there is a divergence between the consciousness and the actual sensations of the body, which causes the brain to respond to the body falling downward.
Shen Dali told us a trick to solve this situation, that is, to keep telling ourselves secretly that at this time, it is stepping on the ground to stimulate our brains from the subconscious aspect, so that our brains can realize the actual situation of the body as soon as possible.
What he said was quite simple, but in practice it was very difficult, after all, none of us had undergone all kinds of training like he had in the army, and it was difficult for us to have such a high quality all at once.
After surviving this for a while, the three of us gradually recovered.
I was wet, my clothes and pants were clinging to my body, I don't know if it was because I was sweating too much, or because I was wet from the rain.
When I turned my head to look around, I found that Xiaobai and Leng Yue had disappeared, so I hurriedly got up and held up a flashlight to look around, only to find that they had already walked to the nearest wall to us, and they were both looking up at the wall, as if there was something interesting on the wall.
I asked Shen Dali to take care of Yang Qing and Zhao Zitong, walked quickly to Leng Yue's side, and looked at the wall with a flashlight.
As I saw above the cave, the walls of this underground tomb were indeed made of bones with white flowers, but they were not human bones, but bones of various animals.
Just looking at the leg bones, there is a big difference in size. The size of a small matchstick, the big one is longer than my height, and the skull is even more shapely**, which looks shocking.
"Explain." Leng Yue turned her head to me and said.
I was stunned for a moment before I realized that he was asking me to explain the meaning of the bones on the wall.
However, I really don't know, this is the first time I've seen this kind of scene, how can I know the answer.
I replied to him angrily, "Guess", and then raised the flashlight away from the eerie-looking wall of bones, and returned to Shen Dali's side.
Yang Qing and Zhao Zitong also recovered at this time, they were sitting on the ground gasping for breath, their heads were full of beads of sweat, it seemed that they were even more uncomfortable than me just now.
Shen Dali was concerned about taking care of the two girls on the side, whether he handed over the water, showing the tender side of this iron man.
I smiled helplessly and began to observe the scene in this huge space.
It's about the same as I've seen before, there is nothing on the ground, and there are all sorts of statues hanging from it. The difference is that I noticed that in one corner of the space, there is a staircase that runs down from the ceiling, set in the opposite direction from what we are used to.
I took a deep breath and walked alone to the staircase, and was shocked to see that it was also made of all kinds of bones, and it looked as if it might fall apart at any moment.
It seems that at the beginning of the design of this ancient tomb, it was based on an upside-down tower, and it was completely made of various white bones.
In other words, this is a very large bone tower!
According to the information I learned from hearing thunder before, at the bottom of this bone tower is the main burial chamber that holds the coffin of the tomb owner. It is expected that all the valuable burial goods should be in the main burial chamber, and there is a great possibility that the dragon eggs are there.
So, our goal this time is to go down to the last floor, open the coffin, and find the dragon egg.
Thinking like this, I was about to beckon the others to come quickly, but I saw that Xiaobai had already run over first.
The little guy was very curious about everything, and when he saw the bone ladder, he seemed a little excited, and jumped to the top of the ladder at once.
The skeleton staircase was even more unstable than I had imagined, and after Xiaobai jumped on it, there was a violent shaking.
As the bone ladder shook, the sound of "bang-la-la" iron chains sounded one after another, and it sounded like this bone ladder should be connected to some iron chains.
In this huge space, there is only one place with iron chains, and that is the top, where those stone sculptures are tied.
As the bone staircase shook, the chains on top began to shake violently, and they shook more and more, causing the stone carvings to sway.
Seeing this, I knew that the situation was not good, so I hurriedly called out to everyone to come over, trying to rush to the next floor before the stone sculptures fell.
However, before Shen Dali and the others could react to my shouting, the stone carvings above had already fallen down one after another, as if there was a rain of stone carvings on them.
The stone sculptures fell upside down, accelerated in the air, fell heavily to the ground, and shattered into countless pieces.
Luckily, the stone carvings were very sparsely arranged, and although they fell down on such a large scale, they didn't hit anyone.
What frightened and disturbed me was that the stone sculptures were severely shattered after they landed, and countless strange creatures crawled out of the fragments of them, gathering towards Shen Dali and them, and making a "hissing" sound as they moved.
