Xiaoying saw a mechanism on the pumice stone, thinking it was an exit mechanism, and triggered it without thinking, but the mechanism was not as beautiful as she imagined, not only was it not an exit, but a deadly trap was activated.

As Xiaoying pressed the mechanism, the dull sound of the stone moving began to be heard in her ears, and as the sound became more and more obvious and louder, the entire sacrificial area began to shake slightly, and everyone immediately gathered together uneasily.

"Is it an earthquake?" Dachangtong said scaredly.

But at this moment, no one answered him, because everyone present didn't know what would happen next, they were just waiting for the unknown with fear and anxiety, and it didn't take long for the sacrificial area to shake, and the stone wall of the ceiling began to scatter some yellow sand piecemeal, and at first it still fell on our heads in pieces, and Professor Ouyang suddenly screamed, "Not good!" It is a quicksand anti-theft mechanism. As soon as his words fell, the yellow quicksand began to get bigger and bigger like a rain of sand, from all sides of the tomb, from all sides of the tomb, in the cracks of each kept flowing down, dozens of yellow sand like a column of water flowing out of the faucet, frantically filling the entire sacrificial area, within a minute, all of us were already yellow quicksand, and the yellow quicksand had even swallowed our entire soles.

Quicksand anti-theft mechanism! I once heard Shanzi say, this is a kind of anti-tomb thief mechanism commonly used by the ancients, the principle is to hollow out the upper part of the tomb, and then inject a large amount of quicksand, the layout of the quicksand is carefully designed, so if the mechanism is not triggered, the tomb can support the gravity generated by the quicksand, but if the mechanism is triggered, the quicksand will start to flow down from the tomb, as the quicksand flows, some of the surrounding gravel and mud will begin to collapse, and be carried to the tomb by the quicksand, In this way, the tomb slowly began to be unable to withstand the pressure generated by the mixing of quicksand and gravel and soil, and began to collapse from the top of the tomb, and finally the tomb robber will be buried alive, and the bones will be stored in the underground tomb, and the tomb owner will be buried together, although this kind of quicksand anti-theft is not as poisonous as poisonous arrows and poisonous snakes, and will not poison people to death, but it is a destructive mechanism, the purpose is to burn the jade, once triggered, it is basically powerless to return to the sky, only to wait for death, waiting to be buried alive by quicksand and gravel, who said that this is not a cruel punishment? Not an intruder's nightmare?.

The fat man and Professor Ouyang have studied the ancient tombs, so they naturally know that we will not be able to fly even if we have wings this time, and we will not be able to escape death.

With a large amount of quicksand flowing frantically, we are now below the knee position has been buried in the fine yellow sand, and the top of the tomb has cracked, everyone out of fear, all retreat to the side, until retreat to the corner, just when we just retreated to the corner of the wall, the whole tomb roof because it can not support gravity, only to hear a loud bang, when the whole tomb roof collapsed and collapsed, this collapse does not matter, the mud on the entire tomb roof began to pour a large amount into the sacrificial area, accidentally flew to the body of the gravel hit the people painful, Fortunately, the space in the sacrificial area is relatively large, so it didn't cause us to be buried alive by quicksand immediately, but I saw it quickly.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry for hurting everyone, I'm sorry ......!" Out of fear, Xiaoying cried and blamed herself.

"This is not the time to blame yourself, there is still hope, you be stronger," Lan Xin avoided the gravel that "flew into trouble", while comforting Xiaoying, who had been blaming herself, and said to me urgently, "Wu Nian, haven't you always been good at making wisdom in a hurry?" Let's figure it out. ”

"It's useless! Once this quicksand anti-theft mechanism is opened, it will be burned with jade, which means that the ancient tomb will be destroyed, and we will also die, not to mention Brother Wu Nian, even if the Daluo Immortal comes, it will not help, this is God's punishment for us. Professor Ouyang said knowingly, his tone as calm as if he had accepted the fact of death.

Although the fat man knows the harmfulness of the quicksand anti-theft mechanism, he is the same as me, he belongs to the Yellow River and does not give up, even if he knows that he wants to die, he has to fight, so the fat man retorted, "Ouyang is crazy!" Don't say sad words, you are old enough to live, but Lao Tzu's good youth has just begun, and I still don't believe that there is no outlet, and the matter is man-made. As he spoke, the fat man was about to look around to find the exit, only to find that the quicksand had been buried between our thighs, and it was difficult to move an inch.

"In my opinion, we are not certain to die." My sudden sentence made everyone instantly turn all their eyes to me, I knew that this was all the gaze of the desire to survive, I was not a lie, but a basis, just when everyone looked at me, I continued to say just now, "Have you forgotten those corpses just now?" That must have been the grave with Mayor Guo back then, so Mayor Guo and they must have an exit if they can get out alive, it's just that we may have the wrong way to activate the mechanism, but there must be an exit. ”

"So did you think about how to get out?" The ghost asked.

I said, "No! But there is still a little time, so everyone hurries up to brainstorm ideas, and everyone talks about the possibilities they think are related to the exit. ”

Suddenly boiling sheep, all kinds of promises came out, exaggerated, normal, everyone rushed to report the possibility that they thought it was related to the agency, and there was a saying "some kind of spell?" This is what Dachang Tong said, and there is a saying "Time and space tunnel? There is a saying "Relief figures?" All kinds of strange and bizarre speculations popped up, until the reasoning Lan Xin said, "Don't guess!" It should be inferred from the discovery we started from entering the ancient tomb, such as the bottomless ghost cave, the Xuanji Gate and the like. ”

Lan Xin's words, when he woke up the dreamer, I immediately said to everyone, "It's Xuanzhi Gate, the exit mechanism should be the same as Xuanji Gate, when Mayor Guo Zhen he must have pressed the right direction of the agency, so he escaped from this sacrificial area, the exit mechanism must still be the Nuwa stone mechanism carved with pumice just now, such a design can make people think that the trap is the exit." As I spoke, I asked Xiaoying, who was still panicking, "What direction did you just take?" ”

Xiaoying is still a student after all, so in the face of this life-and-death moment, there is no way to keep her in danger, she shook her head anxiously, and responded, "I don't know, I just pressed it casually." ”

"It doesn't matter, it's triggered anyway, and it won't be worse than now." Heizai said and glanced at the location of the Nuwa stone carved on the wall, "While the mechanism is not completely buried now, there is still a chance, hurry!" Chubby, pull me out. ”

Because the quicksand has now been buried in our waist, so the black boy needs someone to help him, the fat man next to him immediately waved the sapper shovel in his hand, shoveled a few shovels randomly, looked almost, he used all his brute strength, pulled the black boy out of the quicksand pile, the black boy who got out of the wild horse, without saying a word to the position of the machine, he was agile, like a monkey to avoid the quicksand and collapse and the boulder slab that fell, easily rushed to the organ, and then pressed a few times, Just as he was on time, a collapsed boulder suddenly fell directly on him, and everyone shouted in unison, "Be careful!" ”

Thanks to the swiftness of the monkey's hands and feet, he jumped to avoid the boulder, and just when he dodged, the quicksand in the entire sacrificial area suddenly kept flowing, like a mouth in the ground, and then all of us were carried by the quicksand and flowed, and no one knew where it would flow, only that it had been flowing downward.

When the chaos is passed, through a very deep and long, downward oblique dark pass, the speed of quicksand flow in the black pressure of the dark passage can't help but accelerate, in this case, I can't care about anyone, I can only hear everyone's screams echoing in the dark passage, and after the slide lasted for nearly thirty seconds, my whole person suddenly lost weightless, as if I had fallen somewhere.

After stopping, I immediately played a cold fire, and then one by one, after all the confirmation, only the black boy was missing, just when everyone was nervously shouting the name of the black boy, suddenly a person came out of the quicksand, it was the black boy, only to hear him excitedly shout "Exciting everyone?" Do you want to do it again? "As I said earlier, Black Boy is like this, he looks at the world with a wide heart, and when we used to joke, we always said that he was black, not only because he was black, but also because he had a hip-hop mentality like a black person in the United States.

But now no one is as optimistic as him, including me and the fat man, everyone just checks whether they are injured, and whether there is less equipment, I initially inspected the place I am, it is not difficult to see that this is a secret passage under the light pillar of the flashlight, when I checked, the officer got up, patted his clothes, and said to me while checking the DV, "I was here to investigate the case, but now it's good, the clues were not found, and I almost lost my life, this is the whole thing." ”

I don't agree with the said, "Health Bureau, I don't think so, on the contrary, I think it's getting closer and closer to the truth, from the corpses in the sacrificial area just now, it shows that Mayor Guo and they also passed through the sacrificial area when they entered the tomb, which shows that our direction is right, and if we continue like this, we will definitely be able to find the clues left by Mayor Guo and them back then." ”

Officer Wei said: "That is what I said, but we can't guarantee that our current direction is the same as that of Mayor Guo and their back then?" ”

"I can't be wrong," I said and motioned to the officer to look around, "Look at this secret passage, I just took a look and found that this secret passage is paved with reinforced concrete, obviously, the ancient Ba people could not have this kind of technology, that must have been built by Mayor Guo and them back then." ”

After hearing this, everyone turned on their flashlights to visit, and Dachangtong also knocked on the cement wall with his knuckles, and after thinking about it, he said, "Brother said that it is very likely, I remember that when the investors came, they came with three large cargo ships, and the three large cargo ships transported back and forth several times before all the materials were transported, I said, how can a small hydropower station use so many materials, it turned out to be used to build this underground secret passage." ”

The fat man directly used an ice axe to test the hardness of the secret passage wall, but only a little spark was detected when the pickaxe went down, and the wall cut was not damaged at all, almost no damage, and the ghost who was checking the secret passage said "Little fat!" Don't try, I've checked, this is not an ordinary secret passage, this secret passage is built according to the requirements of the bomb shelter and it is also the standard of the army, so this wall can't even explode a bomb. The ghost said as if he suddenly realized something, and hurriedly said to me, "Wang, is your secret room plan still there?" Take it out and take a look, I guess it has something to do with this secret passage. ”

I quickly pulled out the floor plan and placed it under the light pillar of the flashlight, so that the ghost could easily study it, and the ghost could see the reason at a glance, and he pointed to a place in the floor plan and said, "Looks like I guessed right!" We're here now, a little further in front of this passage, and then we'll turn a corner to a chamber. ”

The fat man said, "Don't you think it's strange, Mayor Guo, why did they make an explosion-proof air-raid shelter secret passage?" Could it be that what kind of big deal is the activity they are engaged in under the ancient tomb? Otherwise, why bother so much. ”

I continued the fat man's words and said, "The fat man is reasonable, if Mayor Guo and they are just engaged in ordinary secret activities, there is no need to go to such great lengths to build a bomb shelter secret passage as the fat man said, just dig a way and it will be over." After finishing speaking, he looked at the ghost in confusion, "Lao Wang!" What do you think? ”

The ghost pondered for a moment: "It's not good to say! In addition to the needs of the early war, there are two other possibilities for this kind of bomb shelter later, that is, they are engaged in military operations, or they are biochemical laboratories, so I can't say what they are doing. As he spoke, the ghost flashlight shone into the darkness in front of the bomb shelter, "Let's go!" Let's go see if it's over. ”

Everyone said to go, but Dachangtong stopped me in time and said nervously, "Brother...... Dude, you can't go, I'm afraid this will be a place for mutated creatures! This...... Isn't this how all American* movies are acted? ”

"Don't be suspicious and scare yourself all day long," I poked Dachangtong's head and said, "It's you who are arguing to go to the grave, and now you're afraid that it's you, why are you so much going on?" "As soon as I finished speaking, a shrill strange cry suddenly sounded in the secret passage, coming from the darkness at the end of the secret passage, the sound was too fast, and too fast, so I was not sure what it came from, I just felt that it sounded a little like the sound of a person in pain, but it felt like there were other sounds mixed in it, so I wasn't sure if it was a human voice, besides, how could there be anyone in this underground tomb, except us.

Just when everyone was frightened by the piercing strange sound, there was another sudden sound, still the same hurry, and it disappeared all of a sudden, and it was indeed strange and scary to hear this kind of sound that I don't know what it was in this dark environment of this deep ancient tomb.

After hearing the voice, I and the fat man, the ghost and Lan Xin heard the sound, and I wanted to immediately find the sound and go to the end of the darkness, but let Dachangtong try his best to stop it, with the two strange sounds, it was not only Dachangtong who was afraid, but also the students from the academy were scared enough, except for the calm named Ah Jian, the other three were scared enough, and approached Professor Ouyang with trembling all over their bodies, and the female student named Xiaoying pulled his clothes, "Professor, I'm afraid, let's go back, this place is too weird, it's different from what we talked about in previous classes." ”

Through the glasses of the gas mask, I saw that Professor Ouyang's eyes were also extremely confused, and even a little timid, but Jiang was still old and spicy, but despite this, he still comforted the student and said, "Don't be afraid!" Didn't I say it, fear is your biggest obstacle, you look at Ah Jian, he is braver than you, and we have no way back now, the road behind has been blocked by the landslide, we have to find another way, and now there is only one way. ”

Xiaoying asked, "Professor!" Can't you wait here for someone else to come to your rescue? ”

"Wait for someone to come to the rescue?" Professor Ouyang repeated in another tone, then shook his head and said, "Impossible! In my opinion, the people who speak in this area of the industry have been trapped here, who is waiting to save them? We still have to fend for ourselves. As he spoke, he said to me, "Brother Wu Nian, how sure are you that you can control the thing in front of you that makes a strange noise?" ”

I smiled wryly, "I'm not sure, I want to know what it is, but I still choose to take the risk, because what you just said is right, the masters in the industry are trapped here, so I can only save myself." With that, I called my men and went out into the darkness of the unknown......
