"Chapter 19: The Giant Corpse"
With the fire fold in my hand, I slowly walked back and forth in this gloomy tomb. The tomb www.biquge.info not very large, but what I saw covered my mouth in surprise.
In the middle of the burial chamber, there was a small copper coffin, which seemed to be a child's coffin, and what shocked me was that around the small copper coffin, there were nine corpses that had decayed into skeletons, and the nine corpses, looking at that size, were all children's corpses.
I was so trembling that I couldn't speak, and the fire fold in my hand fell to the ground.
"Guosheng, what's wrong? Did you find anything?" Because we were facing away from the center of the tomb when we just fell, and Xia Ying didn't see me because she had to help the carpenter treat his wounds, when she heard the sound of the fire breaking on the ground, she thought something was wrong with me, and when she turned her head to look this way, the corpses of several children illuminated by the firelight completely entered her field of sight.
"Ahh Xia Ying screamed, and the sound echoing in the tomb pierced my ears.
When the carpenter heard Xia Ying's scream, he quickly turned his head to look this way, and when he saw this scene, he also gasped.
"It's... These are the children who were buried. The carpenter said with an ugly face.
I nodded with difficulty. "It's... That's too cruel, isn't it? Xia Ying calmed down and said.
"The owner of this coffin should be a child, and the person who built the tomb should have been afraid that no one would accompany the child after he died, so he found nine children to accompany the burial, and there were many such burials in ancient times." I said slowly.
"Is this the tomb owner we're looking for?" The carpenter hesitated.
I shook my head, "No way, the main chamber can't just be like this. I think this should be the master's heir. ”
The carpenter staggered to his feet, "I'll see what it's like inside." So saying, he walked towards the small bronze coffin.
I hurriedly grabbed him, "Forget it, Uncle Carpenter, we don't have anyone, we don't have tools, what if something happens." ”
He looked at me, thought for a moment, and then mumbled, "Then let's find the exit first, and meet them quickly." ”
I continued to look around the fire fold, and there was no exit to this tomb except the one we fell into, and there was no obvious mechanism around, which made me wonder how the man who built this tomb would have come in if there was no door. After searching for a long time, I didn't find any clues.
"How's it going, did you find it?" The carpenter looked at me and spoke in that hoarse voice.
I waved my hand, "No, I've seen everything around, even on the wall, I have touched the poop, there is no mechanism, the only thing that I haven't looked at carefully is the small copper coffin." With that, I pointed to the small bronze coffin behind me.
"There's no way, don't think about this opening on the top of your head, since there is no other place, let's take a look at the coffin." After speaking, he walked towards the bronze coffin.
I also followed behind, just now I should have been a little scared, so I didn't look carefully at the small copper coffin, and now I found that the lid of the copper coffin is also depicting the hideous beast face we have seen several times before.
I looked at the beast's face strangely, what does this mean? Reaching out and slowly reaching for the beast's face on the bronze coffin.
"Guosheng, what are you going to do?" Xia Ying hurriedly grabbed me, but just as he pulled me, my knee pushed forward, and it hit a particularly hard thing, "Oops" that hurts.
Xia Ying hurriedly let go, "What's the matter?" Seeing my look like that, she asked anxiously.
"No.. It's okay. Before I could finish my sentence, I heard a "click" sound. I hurriedly pulled Xia Ying and the carpenter away from the bronze coffin, but after a loud sound, I didn't find anything different, and at this time, a cold wind blew me and shivered, I turned to look at the place where the wind blew, the wall was originally intact, but now there is a two-meter-high door.
"Ah, the door is open." Xia Ying shouted excitedly.
But I looked down at what my knee had just hit, and on the body of the bronze coffin, there was a small protruding square piece, probably because my knee had just accidentally pushed up there and set off the mechanism.
Now that the exit has been found, we cautiously walk towards it. When we arrived at the door, a gust of wind blew in the graveyard, "It should be all right, be careful," the carpenter admonished, and then walked ahead. I thought about it, and took out the gun that Brother Dao gave me when I set off.
"Ah, Guosheng, how can you have a gun?" Xia Ying looked at me in surprise.
I scratched my head in embarrassment, "Uh... This was given to me by Brother Dao when he set off,"
The carpenter turned to look at the gun in my hand, "Will it work?" He asked lightly.
I smiled wryly and replied honestly, "Hehe, no." It's just to take the guts. ”
The carpenter reached out and lifted the gun from my hand, "Oh, this is insurance, you can use it after you open it." With that, a small button above the pistol grip was loaded and handed to me.
I held the pistol, feeling a little nervous, and pointed ahead with the pistol. The carpenter slapped me on the head, "Damn, don't point a gun at someone, it's easy to misfire." ”
Rubbing my head, I smiled embarrassedly. Then we continued our journey.
After walking for a while, I didn't see the entrances to other tombs, I was a little anxious, what happened to them, will something happen, but after thinking about it carefully, with the skills of Brother Dao and Zhang Huanqing, it is estimated that it will not be good, so I just thought about it and left, and I bumped into the carpenter's body. Just as he was about to speak, the wooden sword made a gesture not to speak.
"Shhhh
I paused for a moment, thinking to myself, could there be another carrion fly? I hurriedly held my breath and listened carefully, and then I heard the sound of "da-da-da", after carefully identifying the next direction, I had a bad feeling, because the sound came from the wall, I hurriedly shone the fire fold to the wall, I didn't look carefully before, and now I look at it, and I find that there is a basin-sized direction opening on the wall every few meters, and I don't know what it is.
The carpenter, who sensed something was wrong, called out to me. "Hurry up, something is wrong."
We hurriedly ran to the front. But we didn't get far before the noise got louder and louder, and we turned our heads to look behind us.
What I saw was that black insects the size of an adult's shoes crawled out of the square openings in the walls of the tombway, and they were black and pressing.
"Damn, is this a corpse? How much do you have to eat to grow so big. The carpenter scolded. He pulled us on.
I asked curiously, "Aren't the corpses afraid of the living, why are we running so fast?" ”
The carpenter didn't bother to reply, and scolded loudly as he ran, "Have you ever seen such a big corpse? The average corpse is a little bigger, at most the size of half a thumb, what you see is the size of a shoe, can grow so big, do you think he will be afraid of you, don't rub it, don't run if you don't want to die. ”
Hearing this, my scalp was numb for a while, and I didn't care about it, so I quickly sped up.
We have been running desperately, but we just can't get rid of the giant corpse behind us, I don't know how long, I saw a little light in front of us, and faintly saw the door that seemed to be a tomb. At this moment, Xia Ying, who was running side by side with me, tripped over something and fell, I immediately stopped and turned to run towards her, but the giant corpse was already getting closer and closer. The carpenter should have no weapon in his hand, so he could only do it there in a hurry, I held the gun in my hand tightly, and tried to help Xia Ying up, but she just couldn't get up, and sat there with a little pain on her expression.
"Guosheng, you go quickly, leave me alone, I twisted my foot," he said and was about to push me away.
"Don't say stupid things, we'll be fine, even if there is something, it's a big deal to die together." I looked at her steadfastly.
