Chapter 391: Corpse Bell
"Actually, it's very simple, the mechanism leading to the ninth tomb is hidden in these flying murals, I only saw it for two minutes, and I already knew it, but I haven't bothered you since I saw you chatting." Xiao Yue said.
"We've all seen the flying mural just now, and we haven't seen anything valuable, what do you see from the mural?" Li Huiyan asked again.
"Eyes." Xiao Yue said.
"Eyes? Are you referring to the eyes of those figures on the mural, is there anything special about it? Li Huiyan asked.
Even a smart person like Li Huiyan has become a little confused at this moment, not to mention me, who is standing on the side, I already don't know what's going on.
I hadn't really paid much attention to the eyes of the figures on the mural, and although they were a bit expressive, I really didn't see any connection with the mechanism leading to the ninth tomb.
"yes, it's the eyes, don't you see anything special about the eyes of these characters?" Xiao Yue said.
"I really didn't have that, just now I focused most of my attention on the pattern of the character's clothes, and I didn't pay too much attention to the details of the eyes." Li Huiyan shook her head and said.
Not only Li Huiyan, but Qin Gong and I also shook our heads one after another, and it was true that we had not carefully observed the eyes of the characters in the murals.
So, I turned my head again to look at the flying mural in front of me, this time not looking anywhere else, but only the eyes of the people in the mural.
But after watching it for a long time, I didn't see any fame. The eyes of the characters on the mural are all painted with black lacquer, and there is nothing special to see, no matter how you look at it, it is impossible to be ordinary.
Not only me, but Li Huiyan and Qin Gong also raised their heads to look at the mural, obviously wanting to see what was so special about the eyes of the characters on the flying mural.
After a while, Li Huiyan and Qin Gong retracted their gazes one after another, and their brows were slightly furrowed, obviously they didn't gain anything like me.
"Xiao Yue, time is running out now, you better just tell me what's going on." Li Huiyan said.
"Okay then." Xiao Yue paused, and then said, "Haven't you noticed that the eyes of the characters on these murals are sunken. ”
"The character's eyes are sunken?" I was stunned for a moment, then looked at the mural again. Not to mention, this look is really rewarding.
As Xiao Yue said, the eyes of the characters on the Feitian mural are really sunken, to be precise, the eyes of the characters are really sunken, but because the eyeballs are turned black with black paint, I have never noticed this detail.
Then I walked around the chamber and looked at all the frescoes. As a result, without exception, the eyes of all the characters in the flying mural were sunken, as if someone had deliberately done it.
I can't help but blame myself a little, why didn't I notice these details after watching these murals for so long, but let Xiao Yue, who had only been looking at the murals for a short time, find out.
I have to say that Xiao Yue does have her own unique vision when observing things, and she can always think of and see some details that we haven't noticed, which is why I tried my best to persuade her to help see the flying mural.
The final result did not disappoint me, Xiao Yue did indeed find something unique on the mural that we had overlooked, and it was very likely that it was somehow related to the mechanism leading to the ninth tomb.
"Xiao Yan, I'm not very good at this kind of stuff, do you see something from the eyes of these characters?" I asked Li Huiyan.
"Not yet, but there must be a reason why the eyes of good characters can be sunken." Li Huiyan said.
"Well, I think so too, this must have something to do with the mechanism that leads to the ninth tomb, let's think about it together." I said.
If I can really find the mechanism leading to the ninth tomb with Xiao Yue's discovery, I promised to invite her to a big dinner before, and naturally I will not break my promise, even if I eat a few more meals, I will not feel heartache.
Judging from the footsteps we heard just now, those tomb robbers have obviously reached the seventh tomb, and I am afraid that they are now trying to find a way to enter the eighth tomb.
Although I don't know much about the people of the tomb robber group, since they can find the ancient tombs hidden underground, they must have their own skills, otherwise they would not have reached the seventh ancient tomb so quickly.
From the bottom of my heart, I don't want to meet those grave robbers. Even now that we have the two helpers of the Ghost Face Spider and the Yin Snake, and Yao Ling'er and the Ghost Boy, the two backhands who can be elusive, we are still unwilling to fight the tomb robbers.
The tomb is full of dangers, and there must be more people in the tomb robbers than we know, and there will certainly be various ways to deal with these dangers.
I have a hunch that Yao Ling'er and the ghost boy may not be able to help when facing those tomb robbers.
If the tomb robber had something on his body that specifically restrained the Yin Matter, not only Yao Ling'er and the Ghost Boy would be uncomfortable, but even the Yin Snake would most likely weaken its strength.
"Sister Lizi, I still have something to say." At this time, Xiao Yue said again.
"Xiao Yue, do you find anything else on the flying mural?" Li Huiyan asked.
"It's not a discovery, it's just that I just counted, and there are only twelve people on the mural." Xiao Yue said.
"Twelve, what is the meaning of this number, does it represent the twelve zodiac signs, or the month of December, or the twelve hours?" I said.
I couldn't help but wonder why there were no more and no fewer figures on the Flying Mural and exactly 12.
The number twelve has to be a little curious, after all, this number has so many meanings that it is easy to associate with something.
At the same time, the roars of corpses in the tomb began to become more frequent. I turned my head to look at the white jade lotus coffin, and found that the corpse was not as motionless as before, and began to struggle a little.
At this time, the corpse's eyes had been opened, and the upper body was constantly writhing while the corpse roar came out of its mouth, trying to break the ghost-faced spider silk wrapped around its body.
I can't help but be a little glad that I had the foresight to have the Ghost-faced Spider wrap the upper part of the corpse with spider silk just to be on the safe side, otherwise we would have had to deal with him now.
After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't figure out what the number twelve meant, could it be just a coincidence, in fact, the number of characters on the Flying Mural was only exactly twelve, and it was not the key to finding the ninth tomb mechanism.
"I just thought about it, but I didn't figure out what the number twelve meant, maybe it's really just a coincidence." Li Huiyan said.
"Well, I didn't think of anything either." I nodded.
"Why does it have to be twelve, can't it be twenty-four?" Qin Gong said.
"Why twenty-four, isn't the number of figures on the mural twelve?" I said.
"It's true that there are twelve figures on the mural, but don't forget what we just focused on." Qin Gong said.
"The focus we just now was, of course, on the eyes of the figures on the mural." At this point, it dawned on me, and then I continued: "I see, the number of characters is twelve, but each person has two eyes, so the number may be twenty-four. "That's true, but when I mention twenty-four, my whole body is still black-eyed, and I can't imagine what special meaning the number twenty-four has.
Is it twenty-four hours? Or the twenty-four solar terms? This is another headache.
"Twenty-four...... Twenty-four ......" Li Huiyan muttered softly, but her brows became tighter and tighter. At this moment, I suddenly noticed the golden scepter that Li Huiyan was holding in her hand.
At this point, the top of the golden scepter was facing my direction, and as soon as I looked down, I happened to see the top of the lotus canopy.
Although the lotus pod has become a golden scepter, it is still a lotus pod, so it will also have the characteristics of a lotus pod, and it is the lotus seeds on the lotus pod that I have noticed now.
"Xiao Yan, count the number of lotus seeds." I suddenly had a guess in my heart, and hurriedly said to Li Huiyan.
Li Huiyan raised her head and glanced at me with some confusion, but she didn't say anything, and quickly lowered her head and counted the number of lotus seeds.
Again, twice, three times, because the arrangement of lotus seeds is not orderly, Li Huiyan counted three times in a row to completely count the number of lotus seeds.
"No more, no less, exactly twenty-four lotus seeds." Li Huiyan said with some excitement.
"Sure enough, it seems that these lotus seeds are to be taken off and placed in the sunken eyes of the mural figures, and it is possible to open the mechanism." I said.
Then we all got busy. For some reason, the rest of the lotus pod became extremely hard, except for the tip of the lotus pod, which was still a little soft, but the color changed to golden yellow.
The number of lotus seeds is not too much, not too little, and twenty-four correspond to exactly twenty-four eyes. And when I put the lotus seeds into the sunken eyes of the characters, I found that the size of the lotus seeds was exactly the same as the sunken size of these eyes, and they almost didn't fall off if I put them in.
With this discovery, I am even more certain that these lotus seeds are likely to be the key to the ninth tomb.
A moment later, when all the lotus seeds had been placed, there was a sudden rumbling sound in the tomb, and then we saw that the white jade lotus coffin was slowly closing together.
When the white jade lotus coffin was completely closed, the middle of the burial chamber began to recess, and a hole about two meters in diameter slowly appeared.
At the same time, nine dragon-shaped stone sculptures of the same shape suddenly appeared around the hole, which looked as if they were guarding the area around the hole.
