Chapter 314: Dragon Pattern Jade Pillow
After retracting my gaze from the ghost-faced clock, I had been scanning this burial chamber for a week. I found that the chamber was so well built, that there were no gaps in the walls around it, that it looked like a chamber, and that there was no way out of it except the door of the tomb when we entered.
The crowd tapped cautiously on the walls, listening carefully for the hollow echoes of the walls.
After a while, everyone gathered together, and they all shook their heads after ignoring it.
"I've checked just now, and the stone walls on all four sides of the tomb are solid, and I didn't find any holes." Li Huiyan said.
"I didn't find any mechanism or anything like that on the stone wall." Qin Gong then said. Although he had known this result for a long time, it was still a little difficult to accept it when he heard Li Huiyan and Qin Gong say it in person.
The stone walls of the burial chamber are solid, which means that the burial chamber is actually a secret chamber and there is no passage to leave.
If that's the case, it's going to be incredibly difficult for us to get out of here. Until now, we don't know if the other three tomb robbers except for the glasses man are dead or alive, and even if they want to go back, they don't have the courage to go back now.
If one of these three people is alive, then our lives will definitely be in danger, after all, the death like the glasses man just now is just a coincidence, and it is impossible to replicate it again.
"What about the ground? Perhaps the traps and passages are not on the stone walls, but below the ground. I frowned, looked back at the smooth and flat floor of the burial chamber, and thought for a moment.
"There may indeed be hidden tunnels on the ground, let's check it again." Li Huiyan nodded and said.
Later, we carefully inspected the ground again, but the end result was still nothing. At this point, everyone felt a little tricky.
If my previous guess with Li Huiyan was not wrong, there must be other ancient tombs hidden under this fourth ancient tomb, and there is no reason to cut off the tomb road here.
"I wonder if we are in the wrong place, and the real passage is actually hidden somewhere else." I guessed.
"It's not impossible, but if you want to say that there is a cemetery, I'm afraid the cave just now is the most likely." Li Huiyan said.
"Shall we go back and have a look?" Qin Gong asked.
"Wait, those tomb robbers don't know if they're dead, and we might be in danger if we go back now. If there's no movement outside after a while, we'll check back. I thought about it and said.
At this time, I was not only worried about whether the tomb robbers were still alive, but also some of the gargoyle traps in the cave.
Previously, at the request of the glasses man and others, Li Huiyan touched the gargoyle mechanism in the cave, and now we are afraid that we will encounter danger if we go back.
"Zhang Sansan, if we go back to the cave again, do you have a way to arrange another stone rune array?" Li Huiyan turned her head to look at me and asked softly.
"This is a bit difficult, the gargoyle mechanism has been activated now, and it is almost impossible to arrange another set of stone runes." I thought about it and said.
Ever since the gargoyle was touched by Li Huiyan, I hardly thought about this problem, because from the beginning I felt that it was impossible to complete.
The arrangement of the stone rune array requires a very careful calculation of the orientation, and the stone statue must be surrounded in the middle.
But now that the gargoyle trap has been activated, it is not so easy to arrange the stone rune array again, and it is possible to be injured by the stone statue during the arrangement, and even lose your life.
"Is it really impossible to arrange another stone rune array? Even if it's just a moment and a half, it's fine. Li Huiyan frowned, still a little unwilling to ask.
"I can't help it." I shook my head and said. Hearing this, Li Huiyan sighed and didn't say anything more.
The atmosphere in the tomb was heavy, and everyone was trying to figure out what to do, but in the end, nothing was found.
If there is no secret door in this tomb, then we will have to go back to the cave to find the secret door, and then the stone statue that will move and attack people will become our biggest threat except for the tomb robbers who may still be alive.
"Actually, you don't have to think about it so much, we'll go back and see the situation later. In case all the grave robbers are dead, there is no need for us to continue looking for other secret doors, and it would be better to go back to the surface from the labyrinth. After a moment, Qin Gong spoke.
"What Qin Gong said is not unreasonable, if those tomb robbers are all dead, there is really no need for us to find other secret doors." I said.
"I'm not good at using my brain, I'll go to the door of the tomb first, and I'll let you know if there's any movement outside the tomb." Dong Dan scratched his head and said, and walked towards the tomb gate after speaking.
"Sister Lizi, I think this big bell seems a little strange, and I don't know what it's used for here." Xiao Yue's voice sounded in the tomb.
I looked back and saw that Xiao Yue had walked in front of the Ghost Face Clock at some point, and was very curious to look around the Ghost Face Clock.
Attracted by Xiao Yue's words, all of us also walked towards the ghost clock, intending to take a serious look at what was so strange about this clock.
The height of the ghost clock is about one meter, and it is completely black, not at all like it is made of copper, but more like it is made of iron.
The surface of the Ghost Face Clock is carved with four grimace relief patterns, the same size, and there is no difference in appearance, exactly the same as the familiar grimace group.
The height of the clock seat where the Ghost Clock was placed was more than a zhang high, and two arm-thick bronze chains hung straight from the beam above the bell base, and the Ghost Face Clock was firmly hung in mid-air.
"Xiao Yan, this bell seems to be a little strange, I think it's better for us not to get close, even if we want to observe, it is absolutely impossible to touch the bell." I stared at the ghost face clock for a moment and said to Li Huiyan.
"Well, it does look like a weird game, and this bell shouldn't be simple." Li Huiyan nodded and said.
"Sister Xiaoyan, are you too careful, it's just a bell, where else can you be weird." Xiao Yue said disapprerovingly.
With Xiao Yue's arrogant personality, now that he has completely forgotten what happened just now, where is he still in awe of the things in the ancient tomb.
"We're in danger right now, so it's better to be careful." Li Huiyan said. Xiao Yue's big nerves don't mean that everyone will be the same as her.
The fact that this ghost-faced clock was passively placed alone in such a burial chamber was in itself very strange, and it must have some unknown use.
"Xiao Yan, you look at Xiao Yue and ask her not to mess with the things here, I'll go up and observe." I said to Li Huiyan.
"Hey, dead rice cake, why are you targeting me?" Xiao Yue was very dissatisfied. I ignored her, anyway, Li Huiyan knew what to do.
Xiao Yue likes to move around in the ancient tomb when he has nothing to do, in case this ghost face clock really sets up some powerful mechanism, then we will really be killed by her, so we must be careful.
When I got close to the bell base, I was surprised that there was a small copper hammer hanging on the bell base. I took a closer look, and the hammer was about the size of a fist, and it was also carved with a very beautiful grimace relief pattern on it, and it was obvious that this little hammer was used to strike the ghost-faced clock.
"Zhang Sansan, have you found anything?" After a while, Li Huiyan asked.
"I haven't found anything for the time being, the only thing I can see is that the color of this ghost-faced clock is a little strange, and it doesn't look like it's painted, I don't know what was mixed with this clock when it was cast." I replied.
"Cut, after reading it for a long time, I came to such a conclusion, and I can change it." Xiao Yue pursed her lips and said.
"Zhang Sansan, you squat down and see if there is anything in the clock." Li Huiyan said again.
I nodded, crouched down and tilted my head to look inside the Ghost Clock.
"Be careful, this seed has been around for more than a thousand years, and it is likely to have already decayed, but don't fall and hit you." Li Huiyan admonished again.
I hummed and continued to look inside the Ghost Clock. After observing it for a while, I saw that it was also pitch black inside, with no patterns or any words or anything like that, so I really couldn't see anything special.
"There's nothing special about it, it looks like a regular clock." After a moment I stood up, shook my head, and said.
"That's strange, could it be that we guessed wrong, in fact, this bell is very ordinary at all, just for burials?" Li Huiyan also frowned, and said very suspiciously.
"That's all that can be explained." I said. At this moment, I suddenly remembered the dragon drum I saw in Bai Qi's tomb.
Although on the surface, the dragon drum in Bai Qi's tomb has nothing in common with this ghost-faced clock, I always feel that there may be some kind of connection between the two.
The dragon drum was the snare drum used by Bai Qi to fight in all directions, so what is the use of this ghost face clock, it is worth pondering.
To say that this ghost face clock is only used for funerals, I can't believe it anyway. The next moment, my eyes fell on the small hammer hanging from the clock.
At this point, I had a very strong urge to hit the ghost clock hard to find out.
"Hey, rice cakes, what do you want. Just now you told me not to mess with anything here, and now you can't help it. Just as I was about to stretch out my hand to the small hammer, Xiao Yue asked.
"I think this bell must be weird, and I want to try it twice." I said.
"Did you think of something?" Li Huiyan asked.
"Well, you remember the dragon drum, I think this bell has the same effect as the dragon drum we saw at the beginning." I said.
"Okay then, you just knock it first, and remember not to push too hard." Li Huiyan said. I nodded, removed the hammer hanging from the bell seat, took a deep breath, and knocked down a grimace relief on the same surface.
After a pleasant buzzing sound, I felt my head swell and pain, and everything in front of me became a little spinning.
