Jedi Bridge

"It's really stopped?" Hei Niu gave me a thumbs up and said, "Old Su, sometimes you speak really well!" We finally don't have to worry about being melted! ”

The entire tomb is a sea of blood, and the beam of the spotlight shines on the water, refracting a crimson light, decorating the atmosphere in the tomb even more weird.

Although there is no need to melt the bones and flesh of the red pulp for the time being, it is not a long-term solution to lie on the unicorn all the time. We always run out of energy and are in danger of falling.

I shook my head at the black bull and shouted, "Don't rejoice too soon, the real test has just begun." While we still have the energy, hurry up and find a way to get out! ”

The black bull looked at the scarlet tomb floor, laughed helplessly, and said, "What other way to get out?" I think what we can do now is to ask all the gods and pray that the magma will go back the way it came. The black bull yawned: "However, before that, I have to be confused for a while, and I can't bear it anymore." ”

With that, the black bull withdrew a piece of climbing rope and tied his waist around the neck of the unicorn, ready to sleep.

After the reminder of the black cow, I remembered that we have not eaten or rested for a long time, and we are exhausted all the way, and our physical strength has long been seriously overdrawn. At this time, looking at the calm scarlet water in front of me, an irresistible sleepiness hit, and I also wanted to close my eyes and sleep on the unicorn lantern for a while.

Gao Moli sat on the Qilin's shoulder, silent, he didn't seem to be tired, staring at the golden jade clothes floating quietly on the water with a silent face.

Close at hand, I seemed to be able to sense his inner torment and struggle. I wanted to enlighten a few words, but my mind was chaotic, and I couldn't figure out what to say for a while, so I had to casually advise: "Rest for a while, and other things will be talked about after you recuperate." ”

Like an ice sculpture, he didn't move.

The black bull's snoring echoed through the empty tomb. I was pulling the climbing rope and was about to tie myself around the Kirin's neck, when I suddenly caught a glimpse of something coming out of the calm water.

I quickly rubbed my eyes and looked carefully, only to see multiple objects floating on the surface of the water one after another. The objects are pitch black, bubbling and swirling on the surface of the water.

"What's that?" I asked Gao Moli in surprise.

Gao Moli also noticed the abnormality of the water surface, shone it with a wolf's eye flashlight, and replied lightly: "Golden figurines." ”

Judging from the form of their kneeling support, it is indeed the golden figurines that were wrapped around the jade coffin before. However, at this time, they were smaller than before, and their bodies were also pitch black. I was shocked: could it be that the blood-red solution in the burial chamber could also look down on metal? It's just a little slower?

As a result, our situation is very critical, and the entire bronze unicorn lantern presents a leaping momentum into the air, relying on two thick hind legs to hold it to the wall. If the fluid in the tomb is also corrosive to the metal, we will fall into a "pool of blood" with the copper lamp after a while.

Just as he was thinking about it, the golden jade clothes suddenly scattered in all directions, and pieces of dark green jade were like duckweed, floating on the scarlet water. I was horrified: it seemed that the gold thread had been melted awayβ€”the fluid was really corrosive to metal!

The sudden discovery made me sleepy, and I shouted to the black bull, "Black bull! Wake up the fuck! After shouting like this more than ten times, the black bull was still snoring, and it seemed that he had fallen asleep, and it was difficult to wake him up.

Gao Moli also realized the crisis we were about to face, and turned to me and said, "There is almost no time. ”

"Yes, but we now have no way to go to the sky and five gates to the ground, and it is difficult to fly even if we have wings." As I spoke, I still went to see the tomb with luck, hoping to find a skylight in a desperate situation and escape!

The roof of the tomb was uneven and endless, covering the tomb like a firmament, and I tried my best to find half of the exit. But I accidentally found that the entire tomb was a semi-artificial, semi-natural huge coffin. In this way, the king of Dian has a total of five coffins: tomb, large jade coffin, mercury, small jade coffin, and jade box.

Since the Zhou Dynasty, the coffin has been institutionalized, stipulating: the coffin of the Son of Heaven is fourfold, and the prince, Hou Bozinan, and the doctor are three, two, and one respectively with equal differences. The stone is not heavy, but with a large coffin. There are also: the coffin of the Son of Heaven is eight inches thick, the coffin of the doctor is six inches thick, and the coffin of the Shuren is only allowed to be four inches thick, and there is no coffin. Later emperors, nobles, and scholars basically followed this system.

The coffin of the king of Dian is fivefold, and the thickness of its outer coffin is difficult to measure, and it has the suspicion of surpassing the emperor in the setting of the underground palace and ranking in the immortal class. I don't know if this also contains the mystery of the reincarnation of the fifth world.

As I was thinking about it, I saw that the gold figurines swirling on the surface of the water were half smaller than before, and it seemed that the solution corroded the metal faster than I thought.

On the premise of knowing how to die, waiting for death is an extremely terrible thing, I was anxious, like sitting on pins and needles, and the Chinese and Western prayers such as "Amitabha", "God bless" and "Amen" were almost rotten, and the miracle still did not appear!

Gao Moli suddenly frowned slightly, listened attentively for a while, and said to me: "The sound of water? ”

I quickly calmed down from the panic and listened carefully, under the thunderous snoring of the black bull, there was really the sound of gurgling water, which was extremely subtle, and if I didn't listen deliberately, it would be easy to ignore.

My heart lit up, and suddenly a name came to mind: Water Lion Ghost!

According to legend, the water lion ghost can freely shuttle between the underground water system and the rivers, lakes and seas with a grudge, and the reason why it is in the tomb is not out of thin air, most likely it finds the vicinity of the tomb along the underground water system, and then digs a hole into the tomb. And the sound of the water just validated my inference.

The place where it first appeared was opposite the tomb gate, which should be near where we are now!

I excitedly said to Gao Moli: "There must be a hole in the depths of the tomb!" It was dug up by the water lion ghost when he came in, let's find it quickly! ”

After all, we combined the two beams of wolf eye and spotlight to make the range reach the maximum distance, and the illuminated places were bright and clear at a glance.

Eventually, Gao Moli searched for the sound of water and dropped the beam of light on the third bronze unicorn lamp, and on the tomb wall behind it, there was a faint irregular black hole, which was like a tiger's mouth, waiting to roar.

"! Finally found it! I shouted excitedly, but then I realized a serious problem: how do we cross the burial chamber with a lot of molten slurry several meters deep?

Gao Moli didn't say a word, picked up the climbing rope, tied a slipknot at one end, and threw it towards the third unicorn.

The rope flew away like a snake, and the knot was firmly attached to the neck of the unicorn. In an instant, a single-plank rope bridge spanned the Red Flame Molten Pulp!
