Chapter 204: Strange Black Mist
The black smoke was invisible. Mixed in with white smoke. Transfiguration into a human face. Put on a hideous and terrifying expression.
All three of us were visibly nervous. I don't know what to do with this black smoke.
But it was not what I expected. The faces of the people made of black smoke did not attack us. Just stared at us coldly.
Such an oppressive atmosphere. It's as if we're in a public court. The difference is. We don't hear any judgment.
I don't know how long it took. The faces of the people who had turned into black smoke slowly drifted away. Mixed in with white smoke. Turning everything around us pale gray.
Because we're used to taking on danger after a mutation has happened. So we're still in a nervous state. I didn't come back to my senses for a long time.
And in the process. The black smoke has been visible to the naked eye and is gradually dissipating into invisibility. It's like it never happened.
I was stunned for a moment. Gradually calm returned.
"Shen Dali. Is the incense brought? I asked in a whisper.
According to our habits. Before each fight. It is necessary to ask incense to ask for good luck and evil.
But when we first entered the cave of thieves. is controlled by Mr. Cui's people. And then there was a series of dangers. I almost ignored such an important link.
Shen Dali nodded stunned. He pulled out an iron box from his backpack.
The long tin box. It is a relic left to us by Zhao Ye. I don't know what it contains. And a legacy that we never want to forget.
Shen Dali opened the iron box. Take out three sticks of incense from it and hand them to me.
I flipped it all over my body. Only then did I remember that my lighter had been used by Leng Yue to deal with the monster-like wick.
Shen Dali was asked by me. Hurriedly took out the lighter and handed it to me.
I lit the three sticks of incense in my hand. Squatted down and looked around. I couldn't find a place to put it.
Leng Yue walked over silently. Lean down and use iron chopsticks to knock out three round holes in the ground. for me to place the three pillars of incense.
In fact. Ask for incense as a tradition. It's not really about asking the good guys. The main purpose is to appease the apology in our hearts for the owner of the tomb when we rob the tomb.
If every tomb contains the spirit of the tomb owner. When we ask incense, we can only ask the most ferocious incense noodles. After all, no one wants an uninvited guest to visit their house.
This time. The three sticks of incense burn very naturally. The ash did not fall.
I bowed my head and clasped my hands at the ship-shaped sarcophagus. He whispered, "Senior." I'm sorry. Disturb your peace too. We really had no choice but to do it. Thank you for your understanding. ”
Shen Dali also followed my example. He bowed three times to the ship-shaped sarcophagus not far away.
Leng Yue crossed her shoulders and watched our actions. Silent.
After getting up. I asked Leng Yue, "What should I do next?" ”
The cold moon pointed to the white mist. "Go around." Go to the upper level. ”
Listen to him. I was stunned.
There are three floors above the deck of this ship. We were now at the top of the finch room. What does it mean to go further up.
Shen Dali suddenly greeted me from the side. It seems that something has been discovered.
I hurried over. It was found that a long black stone slab appeared on the ground directly in front of Shen Dali. The stone slab is engraved with Chinese characters: The one who disturbs the peace of the Great Queen. Inherit the wrath of immortality from generation to generation.
It's a curse. Similar to the curse at the tomb of Timur, which shocked the whole world.
Throwing away this curse will work. Now that we're here. There is no room for retreat.
What we can do at this time. It is to fulfill the promise made to the grave keeper before. Don't touch anything here.
As for the ship-shaped sarcophagus. We are bound to bypass. I won't even touch it.
At my beckoning. The three of us moved sideways.
The ship-shaped sarcophagus was very large. But it really can't be compared to the huge space of the finch room on this floor.
Although we all try to be as careful as possible to walk to the side. But what I didn't expect was this. We didn't trigger any traps. But the black smoke reappeared.
This time. Those black fogs were noticeably different from before.
It has just been presented to us. It is a hideous and terrifying face. And at this time. Beneath the faces of those black mist. But half of the upper body has already appeared.
It is said that it is half of the upper body. Because they don't have arms.
We immediately got nervous. It is even ready for battle.
But to our surprise. Those half-human bodies made up of black mist. Suddenly, it disappeared again. It's like it never happened.
See this scenario. I hurriedly waved my hand to signal Leng Yue and Shen Dali to stop. Don't go any further. I pricked up my ears. Listen to your surroundings. I hope I can hear something strange.
Me at this time. How I wish all this black fog had come to us because we had touched the mechanism.
After all. If there is a mechanism. We can then have a way to avoid any danger that may arise next.
But. I didn't hear anything. The stone bricks under your feet are very hard. There was no loosening.
So. What might happen next. I couldn't have predicted it at all.
Now that we've come here. There is no reason to retreat.
So. Even if you don't want to. We can only bite the bullet and move on.
My bottom line is. Don't touch any of the treasures here. And I didn't touch the sarcophagus.
I just want to get through this level as quickly as possible right now. Go to the upper floor to unlock the secret of the copper box. Help Leng Yue finish what he has to do.
But. Even if my heart is so pure. But we still can't avoid the fact that we disturb the peace of the owner of the tomb.
It seems to be a punishment for us. After we walked more than 30 meters forward. Those black smoke reappeared.
This time. The black smoke has completely transformed into a full human form. And every Black Mist is armed with a weapon. Dressed in armor. It's like an ancient warrior.
Shen Dali looked at those weird black mist and was a little hairy. Whispered to me, "Fifth brother." This thing doesn't look like a rice dumpling. How to deal with it. ”
I don't have a way to answer that question. Because of what Shen Dali asked. It is also the doubt in my heart at this time.
Thereupon. I turned my head to look at the cold moon next to me.
Cold Moon's bright green eyes flickered slightly. After a brief silence. He whispered, "You two." Rush over. ”
This kind of time. I'm not in the mood. There is no need to ask the reason for the cold moon again.
We have experienced so many life and death dangers together. If there is not even such a tacit understanding. I'm a fool.
I gave Shen a hard look. Then they all nodded in unison. Don't pay attention to the Black Mist Warriors. Lowering his head and gritting his teeth, he rushed forward.
And at this time. Leng Yue had already waved her iron chopsticks to catch up. Escort by our side.
