Chapter 120: The Prophet's Gamble
In fact, from the details of the stone gate, it can be seen that the rescue team must not have developed a good habit of closing the door casually.
Walking through the middle of the two stone doors, it must have been a pitch-black corridor according to custom.
With the development of human civilization, the tools that embody human wisdom will inevitably be updated. Portable kerosene lamps replace torches, and flashlights replace portable kerosene lamps, which can also be regarded as a kind of tool upgrading.
But... There's always something that only shows its hideiness in front of an old tool.
Don't ask why there is such a big nonsense above, Lei Chan said that he doesn't want to either.
If it weren't for the many "prophets", there was a Bichi who kept opening the handicap and gambling with his and Anne's lives, he might not have been so entangled.
With the opening of this Bichi, "the two found the Yongdao mechanism, but hit the street", "the two didn't find the Yongdao mechanism to hit the street" and "the two found the Yongdao mechanism and passed" after the three handicaps, Lei Chan said that he was very tired, at least he wanted to pretend that he didn't know that there was a mechanism in this place.
Grabbing Anne, who wanted to move on, motioning for the confused latter to stand behind a little before starting to search the wall at the entrance with a flashlight.
To be reasonable, the wit of the ancients is sometimes admirable, but more often in the eyes of modern people, it is not much different from the wonderful, this is the generation gap of the times.
On the walls on both sides of the entrance to the corridor, there are carved statues of two soldiers. Lei Chan was keenly aware that the armor worn by these two soldiers was the same as that of the previous fat man in the chariot. If there is a difference, it is probably the difference between X and XXL sizes.
Of course, this is not the point, if it were not for the soldier on the left stone carving, hanging a particularly obvious modern portable kerosene lamp, perhaps Lei Chan and Anne would not hesitate to walk into the corridor.
Lei Chan took off the kerosene lamp, and immediately heard the sound of the machine slowly sounding in the corridor. Lei Chan and Anne immediately retreated to the edge of the stone gate and looked at the Yongdao vigilantly, but nothing happened in the Yongdao. Lei Chan shook the kerosene lamp in his hand, and there was no fuel in it. He also shone a flashlight on the exterior of the kerosene lamp, and it looked jet black.
He thought about it carefully, and suddenly seemed to understand something, and turned around and walked out of the stone gate. When I came back, I already had a few more stones in my hand. Although the meaning of throwing stones to ask for directions is not the current situation, if it is taken literally, Lei Chan's behavior is also appropriate.
As a stone slammed into the ground, it flipped a few times. The ceiling of the corridor suddenly opened up a small hole like a hornet's nest, and some black powder fell with it.
In the midst of the ghost crying wolf howls of the "prophets", Lei Chan did not hesitate to grasp a certain word, grabbed Anne's hand and retreated to the outside of the stone gate.
That word is called... Fire!
As soon as the two of them withdrew from the corridor, the flames quickly licked the entire corridor, and they rushed out of the stone gate without pleasure, and only shrank back after raging for a while.
Anne didn't know why there was such a thing as fiery gunpowder in an ancient tomb that seemed to be at least hundreds of years old, and she was already immersed in the aura of Lei Chan at this time. Lei Chan instinctively held Anne in his arms, and under the light of the fire behind him, this wave of posture could give a hundred points, and he was not afraid of his pride.
When the flame disappeared unwillingly in the corridor, there was still a warm breath in the air, which made the two of them feel refreshed. Regarding this Anne's inner thoughts, please make up your own minds, but Lei Chan's heart is very happy.
Almost all of those prophets were wailing, it was obvious that the prophets who bought "two people can't find the mechanism" were out, and the other part of the people had no chance of winning, only the prophet who always believed in Lei Chan, called "Timmy", and the one who opened the market Bichi was laughing happily, and the two of them were the ultimate winners.
After trapping some people, the bad Lei Chan let go of Anne in his arms, and did not notice the latter's slightly drunk expression, thinking that he was roasted by fire. He walked into the corridor, and the flames inside at this time had already been extinguished, Lei Chan looked at the protrusion on the stone carving on the left, and hung up the kerosene lamp in his hand, and then there was another burst of machine sounds.
Similarly, Lei Chan did not hesitate, and ran out again, and sure enough, after a while, the flames once again raged the entire Yongdao. Anne just stupidly watched Lei Chan run in and out a few times, and finally exhausted the high explosives that seemed to be nonsense inside, and the mechanism became a waste, and then beckoned Anne to go in.
His thinking is very simple, the mechanism of the tomb is used to protect the tomb, how can it give the intruder a chance, so these mechanisms will inevitably leave no room for it. Even if the kerosene lamp hanging on the wall gave him a hint, he didn't think that by hanging the kerosene lamp, he would be able to pass through the corridor intact.
In fact, it was just as he had guessed, and it wasn't until Lei Chan confirmed that he had exhausted this ghostly hot gunpowder that he cautiously tried a few more times to confirm his safety. But there was one thing he was quite curious about, how did Lin Daochang and the rescue team cross here? Because judging from the oil lamp, it is obvious that it was left by one of these two groups of people.
Without further ado, Lei Chan and Anne continued to walk forward.
But even so, Lei Chan still feels that his life is full of nonsense, at least those invisible "prophets" are just a bunch of extra-large nonsense, and you can't be known by them yet.
In the next place, every time he goes to a place, a certain Bichi in the "Prophet" will open a handicap without hesitation, and then Lei Chan will find the mechanism of this ghost place according to the handicap given by this Bichi. Immediately after that, the prophet who lost the bet would cry wolf, and then wait for the blue pool to continue to open the next handicap.
Gradually, the odds of Lei Chan and Anne surviving have also changed from one to three, to one to two and five, and even to one to one in the end, and so on. There are more and more people standing behind Lei Chan, because those "prophets" who don't believe in Lei Chan have already lost all the big red pants.
And as Lei Chan and Anne advance in this strange tomb, more and more "prophets" are attracted to join in this gamble. Lei Chan was thinking that if he could see these "prophets", especially that Bichi, he would definitely not be able to control his impulse and arrest all these people to play little JJ.
When Lei Chan and Anne finally passed through the last corridor and came to the main tomb under the "guidance" of Na Bichi, at this time, that Bichi opened a handicap that surprised Thor.
Originally, the odds had become Lei Chan, who was 0.3 to 1, and the handicap opened in this place turned out to be 5 to 1!
