The descent was extremely short, and I hit the bottom in less than a second, but the ensuing feeling of relief made me feel like I had arrived in a fairyland, and I breathed the air greedily, and it took a while to come to my senses. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The fire above the head is unscrupulously fluttering, I can clearly see that this is a man-made tunnel, it should be driven by the mechanism, just now I probably accidentally touched the mechanism, this is really a matter of luck, I am a person who has never won playing cards, I am so lucky in this kind of thing, I really have to thank God.

But I can't be too happy too soon, if this tunnel is dug halfway and it's a dead end, I'll end up suffocating inside.

Without further ado, I have to hurry inside, and finding my way out is the real relief. I picked up the flashlight, step by step very slowly crawled deep into the tunnel, because the body is still relatively weak, I gasp very much, plus the air here is relatively hot, so I am dizzy, I don't know how long I can last, I just hope this tunnel is not too long, if there are so many kilometers, I am really finished.

The tunnel was fairly smooth, with no very big turns and very narrow gaps, so it was relatively smooth to climb, but I still felt a little struggling.

"Hey, people are old, and they are useless!" I quipped to myself.

The process after that was quite long, and I don't know how I persevered, anyway, my brain was always in a state of emptiness, unconsciously crawling forward, and it took about half an hour before the tunnel showed an upward trend.

I came to my senses, and after a few steps up, I saw a long baffle overhead, longitudinally placed, with two wooden pins on one side and a few improvised wooden axles on the other.

I pushed it hard, and found that the board was very heavy, and I was afraid that it would be difficult to push it away with my current strength, so I took a few steps back, carefully took out the box cannon, and shot a few points at the place where the wooden pin was connected, but the power of the box cannon was not so great after all, with a muffled sound, the board only had a few more holes, and the two wooden pins were still firmly embedded in the middle, not moving at all.

I shook my head in annoyance, stepped down, and sat on the ground with a wistful sigh. What now? This was supposed to be the exit, but I didn't know how to get it open, so I calmed down and analyzed it carefully.

First of all, judging from the width and height of this tunnel, it should be for people to pass, then it must be two-way, because the one-way secret passage has no meaning, unless it is the kind of sound transmission channel required by the royal family to spy on military intelligence, but this kind of passage is not for people to go, so this possibility can basically be ruled out. Since it's a two-way street, there must be a way to open the mechanism from the inside, otherwise people will be trapped inside, so now all I have to do is find the mechanism somewhere.

Remembering my previous experience in the Tomb of the Heavenly Maiden, those mechanisms are quite secretive and I can't see any flaws, so I think the design of the mechanisms in this place should not be easy to find.

So I groped around the walls inch by inch, not to mention, the stone walls here were very smooth to the touch, and there was no obvious roughness, and it could be seen that the craftsmanship of the excavation craftsmen was very high.

But I really don't understand how to put a mechanism in the wall, isn't it to chisel through the wall and seal it up after it is installed?

Thinking of this, it occurred to me that maybe the mechanism was not on the wall at all, so I hurriedly climbed up the ramp and fumbled on the baffle. As I expected, after a while, I felt a small screw-like wooden tooth at the edge of the axle, and a small hole was drilled at the top of the tooth, and a piece of steel wire was tied to the hole, and the other end of the wire stretched out from the gap on one side of the plate to the top, which should be the button to activate the mechanism!

I pinched my teeth with anticipation, pushed it and found that it couldn't be pushed, and then pulled down hard, with a crisp "click", the machine was activated, and the wooden pin at one end of the baffle was quickly pulled out from between the boards, and there was a "creak" sound overhead, as if a heavy door was bounced open.

I waited cautiously for a while, fearing that there might be some dangerous mechanism, and after a long time, I heard no more movement outside, so I boldly pushed the roof away.

At that moment, billowing dust fell from the opening of the board, choking on a cough, and in a trance, I smelled a rancid smell, which was not a good sign. I waited quietly for a moment for the dust to settle before I pushed the baffle completely open.

At first, the aperture of the flashlight hit the board, and I couldn't see anything, so I took the flashlight and shone it around, and for a moment I froze: this is not another place, but the burial chamber I met at the mouse's house!

I looked blankly at my feet, only to see that the lid of the coffin was wide open, and inside was the baffle I saw in the tunnel, and a triangular space was formed between the baffle and the coffin wall, and it seemed that there was something inside.

Frightened, I pulled the baffle open a crack and shone it in with a flashlight, only to see a huge shriveled centipede corpse lying inside.

I shuddered with fright, hurriedly spread my hand, the baffle re-blocked the dried corpse, I quickly jumped out of the coffin, and ran out without thinking.

This is so scary, why is Daddy Mouse holding these things at home, this is a hundred times more terrifying than the zongzi in the ancient tomb!

When I came to the smaller side room, the furnishings were the same as before, at least I couldn't see any changes. Ran to the hall, the main entrance was hidden, which I forgot to close before leaving. Through the crack in the door, I saw that the ghost-like passers-by outside were still walking unhurriedly, and the whole road was filled with an eerie atmosphere.

I glanced back with palpitations, there was nothing in the room to chase out, although I knew that the centipede was dead, but when I thought of that disgusting picture, I couldn't help but tremble, the centipede was already terrifying, let alone a coffin as big!

I opened the door and quickly ran out, walked to the dirt road and looked back, only to see that the lights of the wooden house were on, and he had indeed gone back first. Thinking about the series of experiences just now, I vaguely feel that this village is different, and it is definitely not as simple as Mu Tou thought.

After careful consideration, I am now on my own, and if I continue to explore aimlessly, there will be accidents sooner or later, and although Wood is not worthy of my trust, he at least knows something I don't know, and I should find out with him.

With this in mind, I knocked on the door of the wooden house, knocked twice and there was no response, I waited a moment for another knock, this time I knocked a little harder, but the room was still silent.

"Wood, it's me, I'm a mouse!" I leaned against the crack in the door and shouted.

At this moment, the door opened, and a wooden kerosene lamp appeared in front of me, and I saw him looking at me with a grim face and a strange expression.

He looked at me for a moment before he slowly spoke, "Who are you looking for?" ”
