Chapter 30 of Volume 6: The Hanging Stab of the Sword
The rock wall is quite steep, but not impossible to climb. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Li Xin followed out, and was immediately startled, leaning against the stone wall tightly and not daring to move.
This kid should be the first time to come to this kind of "Jedi"!
I swept the light of the flashlight upwards to see the shape clearly before acting.
The stone wall is made up of a single stone, and it is basically impossible to climb on it with only four limbs.
Aiming at one place, I put the flashlight in my mouth, kicked my feet on the spot, and jumped up with a seedling knife.
"Be careful!" Li Xin exclaimed.
I didn't dare to be distracted, and when my body was about to fall, I raised my knife and stabbed it into the hard stone wall.
Holding the handle of the knife tightly, his body was suspended in the air, and when he looked down, he really felt dizzy.
When he came back to his senses, he continued to hold a flashlight and stuck it on the cliff.
This place, there is just a place to stay.
Looking up further, the cliff actually slopes inward!
The cave is in the shape of a "round platform", so that the climb becomes more difficult again, and further on, people are almost suspended from the cliff.
Taking a deep breath, he aimed the laser gun at the next landing point and pulled the trigger.
Woohoo!
The blazing laser shone on the stone wall, quickly cutting a place to settle on it. This is where I will end up next time I take off.
Pull out the Miao knife, kick your feet on the ground again, the body is flying out, and when you pass the next foothold, the Miao knife stabs out again and inserts it into the stone wall.
Pick another foothold, and I'll be able to climb it. This feeling of walking on the tip of the knife is really thrilling, don't look at me quite calmly now, but I know in my heart that only one miss, I will end up in pieces, and there is no room for negotiation at all.
Taking another deep breath, I stepped on the last foothold.
At this moment, my body is completely suspended in the air!
The stone wall is tilted inward at 75 degrees, and it has become so far away to find a sense of security on the stone wall.
"Be careful!" Li Xin clung to the bottom and shouted at me.
I looked at her, nodded, took another breath, took a leap, and finally flipped over.
On the ground, there were cracked stone bricks. Still in that ancient tomb.
I don't know what these guys did to collapse this place.
Looking down, it was dark and there was no light in sight.
The lighting equipment of the two little ones was obscured by the black gas rising from below.
One of the worst things now is that I don't have a rope in my backpack.
Originally, I thought that with Xi'er Zhuo here, where would I still need a rope. But I never thought that this guy would break down in this place.
I rummaged through and turned over my backpack, but I just didn't find the right thing.
Li Xin and Li Xin don't have the skills of me, so they can't come up, not to mention that both of them have injuries on their bodies at this time.
Do you want me to tear my own clothes?
I visually measured the distance, and it wasn't enough.
It seems that there must be a trip to the ancient tomb, otherwise these two little guys will not be able to get up.
After thinking about it, I still identified the direction and walked in the direction of going out.
This hellish place is full of traps, so if you're not careful, you won't be able to.
Wait a minute!
Suddenly, it occurred to me that there seemed to be a way to do it.
Those mercenaries should have these tools on their bodies.
It's a pity that the man just fell down, otherwise he could have flipped through his backpack.
Sweep the flashlight around.
No one.
I never felt like I was so bad, and at that moment, I was expecting to see dead people here!
After walking back for five or six minutes, the air was once again filled with a thick smell of blood.
It is estimated that someone is hanging in this place again.
I've got to be careful.
The pace slowed down, one is to see if there is a mechanism under the feet by feeling, and the other is to listen to the sound. There is always some movement when these mechanisms are activated.
Step over an arch.
There was a bloody scene in front of me again. It's different from the person who was killed by the stalactite just now. Now on the ground, you can only see a few meatloafs, and you can't see anyone anywhere.
I don't know how many years this place has been polished.
The stone bricks around the tomb were broken, and from time to time water seeped in. The cold wind mixed with the smell of blood blew eeriely.
People die here, which means that 99% of this place has organs.
Looking carefully at the huge bluestone slab beneath his feet, trying to see where it was the clockwork of the mechanism.
However, this mechanism is significantly more sophisticated than the ones I've encountered before.
In order to prevent the clockwork of some of the mechanisms encountered in the tombs from getting stuck, lime was not placed around the stone slabs.
If you are a little more careful, it is easy to distinguish which slate can be walked on and which one cannot be walked.
At present, the stone slabs of these paving roads are quite huge, and if you put one piece horizontally in the tomb, you can cover the entire tomb. There is no filling between the stone bricks and the stone bricks, so it is impossible to tell which piece will be the mechanism underneath.
Sweat!
After so many things, it is the first time I have been so helpless.
There is not the slightest clue about it.
I could only look at the corpses. From the wounds of these people, it may be possible to analyze what kind of mechanism it is.
I couldn't get closer, so I could only stand and watch from a distance.
From my point of view, all the bodies were lying on the ground, and none of them were leaning against the wall.
Moreover, the upper part of each corpse ...... Whether the corpse was lying on its stomach or lying down, it was full of bloody holes, as if thousands of sharp swords were plunged from above, turning all the people below into honeycombs.
Could it be that this mechanism is attacking from above?
I threw my head and looked overhead, it was also a large bluestone slab, if the mechanism was really above, and it was also the mechanism that caused such many wounds, then why not a single cave?
I didn't have the courage to go there, and I was really afraid that I wouldn't be able to escape the mechanism.
If it's really hanging here, then it's really wronged.
It would be nice if you could get a corpse to come over and take a look.
This is naturally wishful thinking! Impossible.
If, as I guessed, the mechanism was attacked from above, then there should be something left for this ground use.
Squatted down and shone a flashlight at the slate beneath his feet.
I didn't pay attention to it at first, but when I squatted down at this time, I saw that there were many small white spots on this stone slab...... Think of an ordinary sword piercing a small white dot on a stone.
These small white dots are arranged in a net-like pattern, and there is a distance of 10 centimeters between each two small white dots.
I know it.
Exhaled, looked at a dead man with a backpack, and rushed straight over.
Click!
I don't know where I stepped on, but in the silent graveyard, there was the voice that the living people didn't want to hear.
Bang!
With this crisp sound, the stone slab above his head suddenly untied from the middle. From the crack that appeared in this instant, a guy with teeth and claws came out.
Underneath this thing, it's all densely packed with bronze daggers!
The tips of the short knives are all facing downward, and hundreds or thousands of bronze short knives are all fixed on an iron frame, and the back of the iron frame is pressed against the stone.
Every iron frame has to weigh thousands of catties. As soon as the stone slab above opened, these things quickly slammed into the intruder below under the effect of their own gravity.
The entire tomb is covered with bronze daggers in the sky, and there is nowhere to escape, no wonder these people will die here, and they are all talented people who can escape from this kind of mechanism.
Swish!
The Miao knife was instantly unsheathed, aimed at the dagger that fell above my head, and cut out horizontally!
Bite!
There was a long metal collision sound, and the two daggers above suddenly fell to the ground, but this still couldn't stop the iron frame from falling.
With a loud shout, he threw away the Miao knife, stretched out his hands, and grabbed the falling iron frame.
Woohoo! Although the tip of the bronze dagger has been shaved off, the blades on the sides remain.
A thousand pounds of force fell from the top of my head, how could I catch it without retreating?
The blade of the dagger immediately sliced through my forearm.
It's also that my current force value has risen sharply, and if I had encountered this kind of mechanism a year ago, I would have basically had to wait for death.
Bang!
There was a loud sound of the iron frame falling to the ground throughout the tomb. There were dozens of holes on the bodies of those corpses for no reason.
Sin! Sin! I didn't mean it, I really didn't mean it.
Crash!
After the iron frame fell to the ground, the sound of the chain turning followed, and I saw that the iron frame around it slowly rose up, and after passing the stone slab overhead, the stone slab closed again, and there was not a trace of it.
Oh yes!
Looking at the iron shelf in his hand that did not move at all. scolded in his heart: "Lao Tzu won't be so unlucky, right?" Happened to run into a guy who broke down? ”
And really!
This iron frame is the same width as the tomb road, so you can only throw it to the side!
Gritted his teeth, looked at the direction he came from, threw away the iron frame in his hand with all his might, and rolled on the spot and dodged.
Sonorous!
The dagger landed on the stone slab, and a few sparks emerged.
Hula!
There was another sound of chains sliding, and the iron shelf slowly left the ground and hid behind the stone slab above.
Your sister's! Originally, the iron chain on the top would only activate after the iron frame hit the ground, and the mechanism would be taken back.
Piggyback, this mechanism is really not very easy to break. But as soon as it starts, there will be a vulnerability.
That is, when the thousand-pound iron frame is taken back, this mechanism will not attack people.
Looks like I'm going to have to activate it again! Only this time I'm not going to risk my life again!
After thinking about it, I retreated to the edge of the hole, cut down a stone about the same weight as mine, and returned to the place where I had stood, and rumbled the heavy stone over it.
Click!
There was another crisp sound, and dozens of iron shelves fell from above, rumbling to the ground.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, I rushed out and quickly came to the iron shelf that had not fallen to the ground.
I knew I couldn't get it back, because it landed right on the stone I rolled over.
Next to this stone is a corpse with a backpack.
When I roll stones, I don't mess around.
Split the iron frame with a Miao knife and took out the backpack. Flip inside, no rope! Only tents!
Oh yes!
It seems that there is only one left.
At this time, the upper chain has begun to retract.
Although this iron frame is quite heavy, the time that can be recovered is only a dozen seconds. It's really not easy to find the rope in a dozen seconds.
If I can't find it, I'll have to activate it again.
He threw the backpack away and ran to the other one.
At this time, the iron frame was already three feet above the ground!
Three feet later, I'll be carried behind a stone slab by an iron frame, and crushed to death!
Although the Miao knife is sharp, it can cut through this thick chain in a short time.
Such a mechanism, except for the destruction of extremely violent means, is basically not a trick, and if the speed is slow, even if it passes over the mechanism, it will not survive.
Grab this backpack and take a look, still no!
Oh yes!
I'm starting to get anxious, and if I can't find the rope anymore, I'll literally be squeezed here by this damn mechanism.
Rushed to the third person, took out his backpack, this time he didn't have time to check it again, and rushed out directly with the backpack!
Kicking on the iron frame with his toes, he accelerated again, and rushed past the last iron frame. One rolled over and landed on the ground.
Bang!
At this point, the iron frame went behind the stone slab. The slate closed with a thud.
I breathed a sigh of relief, and I was playing with my life again.
Pinched the backpack in his hand, it seemed to have a rope.
I was overjoyed, and quickly pulled the zipper of my backpack. The flashlight shone inside, and there was indeed a bundle of climbing ropes and a few safety buckles.
Hehe! This time there is salvation!
Just throw the rest away, grab the rope and quickly return to the edge of the hole.
He tied the rope to one of the pillars and threw the other end down.
"Has the rope arrived?" I shouted softly from above.
"Where are you coming back?" Li Xin's tone was filled with joy.
I said, "You're all still down there, so how can I go?" Hold on to the rope or not? ”
"Got it!" Li Xin said with a smile.
I looked down. Only a faint light could be seen, like stars hidden behind dark clouds in the night sky.
How could there be such a thick black fog in this place?
I said, "The girl's Li Xin came up first, and then the boy's Li Xin!" Boys, you should let the girls order! ”
The pronunciation of these two people's names is basically inseparable, so I can only add gender.
"Let Xiao Xin go first!" Li Xin said below, "He was seriously injured!" ”
"What a sweet girl!" I couldn't help but think so.
"Alright then!" I laughed, "It's up to you to decide who comes up first, I'll just pull it!" ”
It was really Li Xin who came up first, but it was Li Xin!
She looked at my forearm and asked with concern, "You...... Also injured? How did it get hurt? ”
I shook my head and smiled, "It's okay, it's just a flesh wound!" ”
Li Xin bowed to me and said sincerely, "Thank you!" Just now...... I doubt you! I'm sorry! ”
I've been suspected more times, and I don't care about this time.
I looked at the young man and girl in front of me and said, "Don't go in with you, they will always come out." Just wait outside! ”
"No way!" Li Xin shook his head resolutely, "This is our mission!" It is the responsibility of every one of her descendants to protect the resting place of her ancestors. I can't let these people desecrate the bones of their ancestors. ”
I was stunned for a moment, I only thought that they wanted to protect the contents of this ancient tomb, and I did not think that they were the descendants of the owner of this tomb.
Even if there was nothing in this ancient tomb, they would not hesitate to rush in.
