The four of them ran all the way forward, and the one who ran in front was Xiao Ding, who had just run to the middle of the crossroads, when suddenly a pair of claws stretched out from his right side, and held him down, and before he could see what it was, he fell to the ground.

"Ah...... Yes...... Ah......h

Xiao Ding kept struggling on the ground, making a terrifying cry from his mouth, after the three of them heard Xiao Ding's voice, they immediately stopped, and a few seconds later, Xiao Ding's cry disappeared into the tomb, and they shone the flashlight at Xiao Ding's location.

Everywhere the flashlight aperture went, there was bright red blood flowing on the ground, Xiao Ding had stopped struggling, a thing more than two people tall was pressing on Xiao Ding's body, the thing was black, I couldn't see what it was, its hands covered Xiao Ding's head, and lowered its head to gnaw on Xiao Ding's head.

"Click...... Click...... Click......"

The sound of gnawing was endless, and it looked a little terrifying in this quiet tomb, the three of them saw this, their faces sank, the legs of the person on the left of the ninth master kept shaking, and the person on the right had weak legs and knelt on the ground.

"Cannibals......"

The man kneeling on the ground opened his mouth and shouted, and the Ninth Master immediately squatted, stretched out his right hand to cover his mouth, and said in a low voice: "Xiao Lu, don't scream, otherwise we will all die here." ”

The man listened to his words, his face gradually softened, the ninth master helped him up, and said softly: "You two calm down, that thing is eating Xiaoding's corpse, let's quietly cross it and walk to the opposite tomb, otherwise when he finishes eating, and the ghost behind catches up, the three of us will definitely die." ”

The three of them turned off the flashlight, and it was dark all of a sudden, and the three of them continued to walk forward quickly, the ninth master walked in the front, and the thing was still enjoying the food under him, and he had no time to take care of the three of them.

More than ten seconds later, the three of them came to the thing, and the ninth master was not afraid of danger, kicked the ground with both feet, jumped up, jumped to the other side, and walked quickly to the opposite tomb.

Seeing this, the two people behind him also jumped over the thing in his appearance, but the one named Xiao Lu was originally timid, his legs were weak at the critical moment, and he didn't exert his strength, and his feet hooked on the body of the thing, and he threw himself on the back of the thing at once.

Pressed by Xiao Lu, the thing suddenly turned its head, a pair of green eyes stared at him in the dark, he saw this, and he didn't care if he was scared or not, his hands were propped on the back of the thing, he stood up straight, the whole body just moved half a minute, and the giant hand pressed on his body with his backhand, and suddenly he was pressed on the back of the thing again.

Before he could lie on his stomach, the giant hand suddenly moved upward, pinching his neck in an instant, lifting him into the air at the same time, and then throwing him to the ground, Xiao Lu kept struggling on all fours, trying to escape.

"Ah...... Yes...... Ah......h

A scream came from the ground, and when the Ninth Master and the person who jumped over saw this, they didn't dare to turn on the flashlight, and the two of them ran towards the tomb with their legs drawn.

And the thing lifted Xiao Lu, who had fallen to the ground, into the air, and then fell to the ground, and so on a dozen times, until the cry disappeared from the tomb, and he did not stop.

Then the thing climbed down satisfied, and continued to eat Xiao Ding's corpse, and after a while, he ate the corpses of Xiao Ding and Xiao Lu, not even a single bone left, and then he got up from the ground, and after turning around in place, he found nothing, and turned to the left side of the tomb.

At this time, in the middle of the tomb, Zhang Ju's brows were tightly locked, his face was heavy, and his mind was full of questions about the nine-square grid, just when he was deep in thought, Su Ce suddenly spoke: "Since the cross in each nine-square grid is used to point out the direction, then on the entire floor, is the big cross also used to point out?" ”

Zhang Ju's eyes suddenly lit up, his thoughts were withdrawn from his contemplation, and he said with a smile on his face: "Su Ce is right, the entire floor is actually a large nine-square grid, so the five squares on the crossroads may be the key to opening the entrance. ”

Xu Yuling looked at the two of them and said a little puzzled: "Even if it is as you said, the key to the problem has not been solved, and among these five small nine-square grids, we still have no way to start." ”

Listening to Xu Yuling's words, Zhang Ju's originally smiling face sank again, and he continued to fall into contemplation, and Su Ce on the side was the same, his head was running at high speed, analyzing all this.

But Xu Yuling stared at the stones on the floor in front of her, without saying a word, as if she wanted to get something out of it, and after it lasted like this for nearly half a minute, Xu Yuling's eyes lit up, and her face was a little excited.

She immediately broke the silence in the tomb: "Have you noticed, the stone we triggered the mechanism before was stepped on by us, and it bounced back on its own, as if it hadn't been stepped on. However, the rocks that didn't trigger the mechanism were trampled on by us, and they never bounced back up. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Su Ce and Zhang Ju came back from their contemplation almost at the same time, looking at the eighty-one stones in front of them, Su Ce blurted out: "Indeed, as Yuling said, in this case, why don't we step on all those stones that can't trigger the mechanism?" ”

After hearing this, Zhang Ju nodded slightly and said, "This method can be tried, then we will act separately!" ”

Then the three of them followed Su Ce's instructions and returned to the area where the eighty-one stones were, and the three of them quickly stepped on the stones that would not trigger the mechanism, and they stepped on it like this for a few minutes.

Just as Su Ce stepped on the last stone, the entire burial chamber shook.

"Boom...... Bang...... Rumble......"

The floor under their feet cracked in the middle and slowly moved towards the two walls full of holes, Xu Yuling turned her head to look at Zhang Ju and said, "Zhang Ju! I'm smart! ”

"I've finally been smarter!" Zhang Ju smiled slightly.

"Humph! What is the final calculation? Xu Yuling said a little unhappily.

"It's just that I've been stupid before!" Su Ce said with a grinning expression.

While they were chatting, the floor area was getting smaller and smaller, and the three of them would have no place to focus on it.

"Let's all go down and have a look down there!" Zhang Ju suddenly said eagerly.

Before he could finish speaking, the three of them jumped down to the cracked place together, the three of them no longer paid attention to the situation in the tomb above, Su Ce held the candle, looked around, and a tunnel more than one person high appeared in front of them.

On both sides of the tunnel are smooth stone walls, which are the result of careful polishing, and behind them are also smooth stone walls, and on the floor under their feet, there are some different shades of chisel marks.

Su Ce said with a strange expression: "The floor here is so strange, it's like just fooling around." ”

Zhang Ju also looked strange, looking at the chisel marks under his feet, full of puzzlement, he said: "No matter, let's go in and have a look, we should go deep into the hinterland of the mountains at this time." ”

Xu Yuling said: "It's almost, we have been going inward, and at the same time we have been going down. ”

They continued to move forward, and after walking four or five hundred meters, there were steps in front of them, and they did not hesitate, and went up along the steps, and after they had walked about forty or fifty steps, there was a flat ground in front of them, and the flat ground was paved with square stones.

The stones were exactly the same as the ones they had seen in the burial chamber on the upper floor, and they looked up straight ahead along the stones on the ground, and directly opposite them, at the end of the flat ground, there was a stone door more than two meters high.

There are two statues on either side of the stone gate, the one on the left is a man with the head of a bull, holding a spear in his hand, and his eyes are fierce and his eyes are looking straight ahead.

The statue on the right is a snake head, holding a flute in its hand, the statue is tilted up, there is some disdain in the eyes, the corners of the mouth are raised, and there is some playfulness on the face.

Above the stone gate are written three words - Hades Palace.
