Chapter 42: The Upper Floor of the Cage

The bricks look old, but it takes a lot of skill to break them without damaging the surrounding bricks. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Su Lan looked left and right and didn't seem to be able to help, and was blasted aside by Mr. Zhao with Zhang Xuan. Finally, Mr. Zhao used a special shovel to shovel out the joints around the bricks, and then used a large pliers to pull out the bricks. Su Lan wanted to complain: I'll go, Mr. Zhao, what you have in this bag is simply against the laws of physics, it doesn't look like it's too big, how can you have everything, it's sure it's not Doraemon's storage bag.

After the air poured in through the gap, it seemed to touch some mechanism, and after hearing the hissing behind the wall for a long time, it slowly subsided, and then Xiao Ji opened his eyes and said, "It's okay." He got up from the ground and walked to the wall, kicked it up, and with a bang, he kicked a big hole in the wall. He walked directly through the entrance of the cave, followed by Mr. Zhao, leaving Su Lan and Zhang Xuan stunned.

"Do you see what's strange about this wall?" Zhang Xuan asked Su Lan in a low voice.

"I'm not particularly sure, but the brick is hollow and there are obvious signs of corrosion on the fault. It should be that there was some corrosive liquid or gas trapped in it before, and it would react violently when it encountered oxygen, and if we knocked on other bricks, it might just spray out and pour it on us. Su Lan speculated.

"The ancients were really ruthless." Zhang Xuan sighed.

"That is, what can be brought into the tomb must be the treasure of the tomb owner for a lifetime, and I don't want to let people take it away casually."

"You're also intelligent, and sometimes you're still online for a while."

"That's ...... Ahh ”

"That's what it sounds like."

"You...... Forget it, this kind of place is too lazy to bother with you. Hey, why did you stop again? I said that the owner of this tomb can die if he builds a road well, how can he walk two steps and be blocked, and two steps will be pitted. ”

Between the platform they were on and the wall in front of them was a pit about twenty meters wide, connected only by a wrist-thick iron cable on either side. Su Lan looked quite depressed, cheered herself up and said: "Isn't it just an iron chain, 'Dadu Bridge Crossing Iron Rope Cold', the Red Army's Long March Iron Chain Bridge was many meters wide and climbed over, this is not a matter." ”

Xiao Ji stood on the edge of the platform and looked down, his eyes slowly narrowing. Mr. Zhao sensed that something was wrong and asked, "Xiao Ji, what did you find?" ”

"The iron rope didn't work in the past," Xiao Ji said, "and the following things must be taken care of." ”

Following the direction of Xiao Ji's finger, Su Lan only saw darkness. Zhang Xuan lit up a cold firework and threw it down, the cold firework hit a pole and bounced off, illuminating several cage-like things hanging on it, and he recognized it at once, and said in a lost voice: "Fuck, isn't this the dark room where we used to take weapons before?" ”

When Su Lan saw the cage hanging on the pole, she immediately remembered that ghost place, but then found that the space of this place was much larger than the previous dark room, and there was no corpse on the ground that Xiao Ji had beaten with a butterfly knife. Zhang Xuan had a considerable psychological shadow on those cages, pointing to those cages and trembling in his voice: "This is ...... There's ...... in this."

"Why do you say we have to go down?" Su Lan asked Xiao Ji.

Xiao Ji didn't say anything, frowning and staring at the bottom without knowing what to think. Mr. Zhao explained: "Ancient people were not as technologically advanced as modern people, and the iron cables were used to lift these cages under the disc at the top of the pole, just like the tower crane at the construction site. The real way out should be below. ”

"So we have to climb down this pole and get out?" Su Lan asked, thinking of the dead corpse in the cage, goosebumps suddenly rose.

"Yes." Mr. Zhao said as he flipped out the tablet and browsed and explained, "According to the information I have collected before, this kind of corpse is very special, a bit similar to the ghost descending technique. The mage places a spell around the cage and then places the person in the cage. In this way, the soul of the dead person cannot leave the cage bondage due to the bondage of the spell, neither belongs to the yang world nor the underworld, and cannot enter the reincarnation, and the longer the soul is trapped, the stronger the resentment of the soul, the more difficult it is to deal with. ”

"In that case, wouldn't it be better to just climb down the pole without provoking those things?" Zhang Xuan proposed.

"The anger of the living can break the seal."

"Speak human words."

Mr. Zhao glanced at Xiao Ji, who was still standing aside, and continued to explain to Su Lan and Zhang Xuan: "Living people will have a yang qi or anger on their bodies, and the charm on the cage will automatically peel off and release the corpse inside when they encounter this kind of anger. Whether we touch the cage or not, as soon as we pass by, they will run out of the cage and attack us. ”

"What happens if we get caught by them?" Su Lan asked.

"Isn't this nonsense, what if you're dead?" Zhang Xuan said.

"Will be the replacement for those corpses, locked in a cage until the next replacement comes."

Su Lan thought that the people in the archaeological team she saw in the cage last time were probably caught as scapegoats by mistake. No wonder he is not very strong, Zhang Xuan can escape from under him with a few shots, it turns out that he has only been locked up for twenty years, and his grievances are not enough. Wait, in that case, wouldn't they have to be locked in a cage and stare dryly if they were caught? No, that broken cage looks so small, it must be uncomfortable to stay.

The last time Xiao Ji knew that if he was too close, he would get a corpse, but he actually knocked down the cage and pulled the equipment from the person, which was simply a personal insult to the 20-year-old Zongzi, and I was a deceitful corpse who was angry with the Zongzi. Since it was so awesome last time, why did you coax it this time, Su Lan looked at Xiao Ji, who had not expressed his position, and then looked at the pole and cage looming in the darkness below, and said in her heart, how powerful is the main master in the cage, Xiao Ji, you are stuffy like this, I have a good heart.

As soon as Xiao Ji looked up, he found that Su Lan, Zhang Xuan, and Mr. Zhao were all staring at him, and shook his head: "The cage is full of the original sacrifices, and I can't stop them." ”

Su Lan sighed in her heart, what should I do with this Nima?

"That's it, Mr. Ji, you tell us what the characteristics of these corpses are, we don't have to fight hard to outwit them." After a few seconds of silence, Zhang Xuan spoke, although her voice was still a little trembling, "You can't do them alone, isn't there still us, Mr. Zhao and I are not vegetarians." ”

I'm a vegetarian in a good relationship, right? Su Lan glanced at Zhang Xuan, but she couldn't refute it, she was quite unwilling.

Xiao Ji said: "The corpses whose souls are imprisoned are neither alive nor dead, and cannot be destroyed, and if you want to make them disappear completely, you can only find living beings to replace them." ”

Su Lan saw that after Xiao Ji finished saying this, everyone's eyes turned to herself, and she couldn't help but take a step back: "I, I, I don't want to be locked in a cage!" ”

"I have the most blood and am the most attractive to them." Xiao Ji said lightly, "I'll lead them away, you go first." ”

He untied the bandage around his arm. The wound was almost solidified, Xiao Ji took the butterfly knife and slashed it, and the blood flowed out again, and Su Languang felt that his arm twitched and hurt when he looked at it.

Xiao Ji frowned, twisted the knife back into his palm, and jumped over with the iron chain when he saw the footholdβ€”it really jumped over. His balance is amazing, even on shaky chains. When he was about to reach the top of the chain, he leaned over, and just as he was about to plant, he grabbed the chain with his hand and stood firmly above the disc with the help of a somersault.

All the cages shook the moment he stood up. Su Lan felt the yin wind blowing on her face, and subconsciously covered her face with her arm, and when she put it down again, she saw five or six people in inch clothes arching their bodies and standing in a circle, surrounding Xiao Ji in the center, and they were approaching him step by step.
