Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Sea of Sand
The sudden closure of the stone door directly blocked the only way to enter and exit the main tomb, which was not a good thing for the three of us, and for a moment nervousness and uneasiness shrouded my heart. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Suffered!" The sea reacted immediately, and the entire burial chamber began to tremble irregularly from the moment the stone door was closed, and from time to time the sand fell.
"Sea of sand!" Chuang Ye's pupils shrank suddenly, the scene ten years ago appeared in his eyes, the thorniness of this problem is far from being comparable to ten years ago, the speed that is almost visible to the naked eye, the entire tomb has been swallowed by nearly a quarter of the sand, and there is no intention of stopping.
Rushing!
Grains of sand poured from the four corners of the chamber, and the three of us looked at each other, and reacted quickly, stepping as fast as we could onto the high point of the chamber, the sarcophagus in the middle.
Before it was time, the three of us stood side by side on top of the sarcophagus, frowning. The scene in front of me was indescribable, and the sand particles were still falling and increasing, as if they were constantly flowing into the tomb, devouring all the creatures that disturbed the rest of the tomb owner.
Gradually, even the sarcophagus was swallowed up by the sand, leaving only the coffin lid exposed, Chuang Ye looked around the tomb, hesitated for a moment, took the rope gun from the sea, and shot towards the top of the tomb.
This is our last resort and opportunity, unfortunately, until the sand is no longer above our ankles, the hook on the rope gun, still failed to hook the hole above the tomb, the sea is a little anxious, like ants on a hot pot, I am not much better, but Chuang Ye still looks calm.
"The sea!" Chuang Ye shouted, and then the soles of his feet stepped violently, and the whole body took off with strength, and the sea suddenly understood the meaning of Chuang Ye, grabbed my collar and threw it at Chuang Ye, at that moment I knew that the arm strength of the sea was so amazing, and I was thrown out like a chicken.
Two rope guns with arrows slammed into the walls on both sides of the chamber, deeply embedded in the tomb walls, and almost at the same time, the sea grabbed one end of the rope and rose with the momentum of the rope guns.
Almost at the same time, the rope tightened, a life-saving rope, across both sides of the tomb, and the three of us stood tightly on it, I breathed a sigh of relief, but the danger was not over, how to maintain the balance and coordination of the body on the rope, became the key to our survival.
"Whew..."Rhubarb's whimper, made me suddenly think of something, my heart palpitations Rhubarb did not join me, but nervously stood on top of the sarcophagus, the speed of the sand surging has exceeded its hind legs, it is standing, passing a look of help to me.
"The sea, pull me. I'm going to get Rhubarb out! ”
"You're crazy, that dog is five meters away from you, saving it at this time is simply killing yourself!" The meaning of the sea is very clear, let me give up rhubarb, I can't bear it, in my heart rhubarb, has become my most important partner.
He has saved me many times in danger, "No, I'm going to save it, give me the rest of the rope!" "Without the slightest hesitation, I made a decision that I would not give up Rhubarb, a partner who has relied on life and death many times.
The sea sighed, couldn't resist me, and threw the rest of the rope at me, and I took it, but the movement was too large, and the rope began to shake violently.
I started to lose my balance. The body is falling downward, and the rest of the whole body is suspended except for the foot hooked on the rope, and I don't care about this, and the priority is to do it as fast as possible. Rescue the rhubarb from the sea of sand.
I endured the pain of blood backflow, and made the rope into a set, but my technique was not very accurate, and it took me a few times to put the rope on the rhubarb, and after pulling it out, I was exhausted, but at the critical moment, the sea stabilized the shaking rope and lightened my burden.
"You kid can!" The sea held out his thumb to me, and I smiled heartily, helplessly, because I didn't know if I would be alive or not to walk out of this ancient tomb.
"The sea of sand has stopped!" After a long time, Chuang Ye spoke, I looked at the slowly fading sand, and I was afraid for a while, the tomb gradually returned to its previous appearance, but the sarcophagus was gone.
Chuang Ye was the first to jump off the rope, and I also reached the limit, jumped down, gasping for breath on the ground, looking at the place where the sarcophagus used to be placed in the middle of the tomb, and now there was only a pit left, filled with sand.
"It's my carelessness, it's this sand coffin again!" Chuang Ye blamed himself a little, his expression was solemn, and the second time he almost folded in this sand coffin, for him, it was an unspeakable pain, even if there was no danger this time, but the first time had caused him the biggest pain in his life.
"This time, I must whip you!" Chuang Ye was angry, and hated Haikang Hou Guo Yuan to the extreme, and even his people with rich experience in fighting were deflated in his tomb, not only physically and mentally and physically, but also mentally.
"Master Chuang, your long-cherished wish has been fulfilled, or I see, let's leave, the tomb of Haikang Hou is full of evil nature, and it has the blessing of heaven and earth, sun, moon and essence, unless you use large equipment, it is impossible to shake it!" The sea retreated, not because it was dangerous, but because it had deeper considerations.
"Yes, Master Chuang, the tomb of the Marquis of Haikang is very dangerous, from the time he went down to the tomb to the present, he has almost died nine times!" I also proposed to retreat, firstly, this ancient tomb does not have what I need to find, and secondly, the reason why I came to Sanlihe is also to help Chuang Ye fulfill a wish, and now that the goal has been achieved, leaving has become a matter of course.
"The sea, God, you have the right to do me a favor, I owe you a personal favor, I won't leave if I don't see the real main tomb of Haikanghou!" Chuang Ye is very persistent, unwilling to give up easily, I don't have much to say to the sea, and now it is impossible to change Chuang Ye's mind, I can only accompany him on the adventure.
Chuang Ye patted me and the sea on the shoulders, walked to the closed stone door, searched for a while in a pile of sand, and pulled out the missing probe needle.
"This stuff is of great use! I can't lose it in this ancient tomb, otherwise I will be scolded to death by the ancestor of the Northern Sect! Chuang Ye smiled, this corpse probe needle is not a mortal thing, it should belong to the inheritance of the Northern School, look at the appearance of Chuang Ye. It seems that there is a different opinion on this probing needle, anyway, I don't see any difference, at most I think it is a different embroidery needle, or thicker and longer.
The sea put away the ropes on both sides of the wall, and when he pulled out the rope of his spear, it took him a lot of effort, and he could not pull it out completely, so he had to give up, just cut the rope with a dagger, and use it for other purposes.
