Chapter 556: The Chamber
To be honest, my knowledge of these things is very limited, and I am quite good at it.
I beckoned to everyone, motioned for everyone to follow, and then entered the arched tomb, this way Liang Houzai did not engrave again, until there was a fork in the road ahead, I relied on the perception of the glass egg to choose a circular tomb road, Liang Houzai asked Liu Shangang about the time, and carved a "巳" character at the entrance of this tomb road.
After carving the words, Liang Houzai said to me, "Brother Dao, we have to hurry, we have to rush to the next tomb within an hour." ”
I nodded, asking everyone to speed up.
The time to see the tomb again was six o'clock and five minutes in the evening, Liang Houzai's speculation was correct, this time what appeared in front of us, it was indeed the tomb that we encountered for the first time, the coffin in the middle had traces of opening the coffin, and there were traces of the green steel sword hitting on the ground, and we also found the E character engraved before Liang Houzai.
Before leaving the tomb, Liang Houzai turned around and carved the word "Shen" in the tomb.
Liang Houzai walked out of the tomb and said to me: "Actually, when we entered the first tomb road, the direction was wrong, fortunately, Brother Dao brought glass eggs, otherwise, we really couldn't get out this time." ”
I raised my eyebrows and asked, "Do you know how to get out?" ”
Liang Houzai said: "If we want to go out from the tree hole, we estimate that we will have to walk for a whole day. No matter how the tomb chamber and the tomb road are moved, we should be able to get out as long as we return to Jiazi at twelve o'clock in the morning the day after tomorrow. Fortunately, the person who designed this tomb started the day with the 'Zhengzi time', otherwise I would not have been able to figure out its pattern. ”
I wondered, "You've figured out the structure of the tomb?" ”
Liang Houzai shook his head: "I can only find out the movement of the tomb road and the tomb chamber." ”
I breathed a sigh of relief, smiled, and didn't discuss it with him further.
Thanks to this time I went to the tomb with Liang Houzai, if Liang Houzai returned to Beijing as soon as the school started, I felt that I couldn't judge the right path with my IQ, and in addition, I was able to re-choose the right tomb road after going in the wrong direction, thanks to the glass egg.
At 6:24, there was a shock in the tomb, and the tomb road that had been engraved with the word "Shen" appeared in front of us.
Now I am more and more convinced that the assumption is correct.
But in this way, my heart also became more and more uneasy, according to Liang Houzai's inference, we will find "what we are looking for" at twelve o'clock tonight, but in fact, if we continue to go on like this, we can only find the source of the Yin Soup, we entered the tomb to find the Yin Jade, but no one is sure what will be encountered at the source of the Yin Soup, whether it is Yin Jade or something else.
What I'm most worried about now is that near the source of the Yin Soup, I may encounter the evil things suppressed in the tomb.
The aura in the graveyard was getting thicker and thicker, and I could already faintly feel something nearby, but I wasn't sure what it was, and I couldn't determine its exact location.
In such a place, my perception of the Qi field seems to be a little out of order, and I always feel that there is a faint force interfering with me.
Two hours later, we entered a new tomb, this tomb had only one coffin, the color of the coffin was very dark, it seemed to be made of smooth metal, the light of the fox fire on it, reflected a soft metallic sheen, but this coffin had no grease on it, and it was larger than the bronze coffins we had seen before.
Liang Houzai asked Liu Shangang: "Thin monkey, what time is it?" ”
Liu Shangang: "It's just past eight o'clock. ”
Liang Houzai carved a "ugly" character in the tomb behind him, and carved a "癸" character in the tomb.
I raised my chin at the words on the floor of the tomb and asked, "This is the chamber?" ”
Liang Houzai nodded: "Well, it is estimated that the things we are looking for will not appear until the Hai Dao is connected to the Gui Chamber." ”
I pursed my lips and walked straight to the coffin in the center of the chamber, placing my hand on the surface of the lid, and there was a very mixed touch from it, and a temperature similar to body temperature.
The materials used to create this coffin should be the same as the black sarcophagus in the tomb of the Dragon King and the underground palace of the old Huang family.
I pressed one end of the lid with both hands and tried to push it open, but the inside of the coffin seemed to be latched, and I added it several times, but the lid still didn't move.
At this time, David came over, he picked up his sniper rifle, pointed the muzzle at the coffin, and I pulled him aside: "What do you want to do?" ”
Dawei wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said a little anxiously, "Help you open the coffin." ”
I waved my hand at him: "No, you can't force the coffin open, that will definitely cause problems." ”
David put down his sniper rifle and sighed: "Alas, I've really had enough of staying in this place, it's too torturous." Those of us who are soldiers are not afraid of death, but you can at least let me know where the enemy is, we have been in this place for almost a day, and we have not touched anything so far. Really, I can't stand it anymore. ”
I held up the fox lantern and shone it on Dawei's face.
There was no tension on his face anymore, and instead of a heavy restlessness, he frowned, but his eyes stared viciously at the black sarcophagus beside me, and I felt as if he had a fire in his heart, eager to find a place to vent.
I glanced at Senior Brother Geng again, who was now standing at the entrance of the tomb, his eyes closed, and the words in his mouth. Listening carefully, he was reciting the Three Corpses.
"Senior Brother Geng?" I straightened my neck and called out to Senior Brother Geng.
Senior Brother Geng opened his eyes at this time, he loosened his neckline with his hand, and responded to me very irritably: "I don't know what's going on, I've been feeling very irritable since just now, and my whole body is not right." ”
I immediately opened my eyes and carefully perceived the Qi field in the tomb, but I couldn't perceive anything, not even the normal yin and yang qi, there was obviously a bad qi in the tomb just now, but I can't sense it now.
In this burial chamber, my celestial eye was out of order.
Then I condensed my mental power and wanted to borrow strength from the black water corpse coffin, but at this moment, the black water corpse coffin seemed to fall into a deep sleep, and I couldn't even perceive its Qi field, let alone borrow power from above.
I scattered my mental power, and took out the Fantian Seal and the Qinggang Sword again, now I can't perceive any Qi field from them, but when the fire silk cloth was unraveled, I immediately became irritable, it seems that the Qi field on the Fantian Seal is fine, the black water corpse coffin and the Qinggang Sword should be fine, only I have a problem.
Putting away the Fantian seal, I asked Liang Houzai: "Houzai, can you still perceive the Qi field now?" ”
Liang Houzai shook his head: "Since I entered this tomb, I can't sense the Qi field, what's wrong, you are also affected?" ”
I nodded, and asked Liu Shangang again: "Thin monkey, how are you?" ”
Liu Shangang looked at me suspiciously and said, "I don't have a way to act, so I can't perceive the Qi field in the first place." ”
I said, "I didn't ask you this, how do you feel now, aren't you irritable?" ”
"Annoying, why don't you annoy," Liu Shangang sighed and responded: "I forgot to call Xiao Renya before entering the mountain, Brother Dao, I guess I'm going to finish." ”
When has this been, he's still thinking about this kind of thing!
I ignored him and gave Liang Houzai a look, making him optimistic about Senior Brother Geng, while I stared at Dawei.
At 8:24, the ground shook again, and I immediately led everyone into the tomb engraved with the word "ugly", as soon as I entered the tomb, I could feel the evil qi again, and the emotions of Senior Brother Geng and Dawei gradually stabilized.
There must have been something in that tomb that affected us just now, but what happened to Liu Shangang, why was he the only one who was not affected?
We walked along the tomb road, passing through the three forks, the glazed egg chose an arched tomb road, and after another hour of trekking, we returned to the tomb engraved with the word "E".
When I entered the tomb, Liang Houzai advised me to stop, and he said that it was already 9:50, and in 10 minutes it would be Zhenghai, and if the anger had not yet appeared, we might have gone the wrong way.
Since there was no anger last night, it is not certain that Liang Houzai did not appear, whether it also means that there is no movement in the forest.
We waited in the tomb for ten minutes, while Liang Houzai stared at Liu Shangang's watch.
Just after ten o'clock, the ground shook again, and a tomb crossing appeared on the solid wall directly opposite us, and a tomb crossing behind us became a solid wall.
Just as I was using the glazed egg to probe the source of the Yin Soup, the ground shook violently, with amplitude and frequency stronger than any of the shocks we had experienced today.
A wave of anger poured out from the tomb in front of it, quickly spreading throughout the tomb.
I put away the glazed eggs, and glanced at Liang Houzai, who immediately leaned over to the bronze wall and carefully inspected the tomb entrance, and when he walked to the square tomb entrance on the far right, he quickly glanced inside, and then quickly turned around and nodded at me.
I immediately beckoned to everyone, and then rushed to the tomb.
Fortunately, the tomb road marked by Liang Houzai is not the middle one, otherwise, we may encounter evil things this time.
There were still two full hours before 12 o'clock in the morning, which was enough time for us to return to the tomb engraved with the word "癸", but I was about to slow down when I heard Liang Houzai shouting from behind: "Something is chasing after you?" ”
As I quickened my pace again, I said to Liu Shangang, "Look what's behind?" ”
Liu Shangang: "I can't see clearly, it's too dark!" ”
As I ran, I turned to look back, and the places that were out of the foxfire's light were completely black, and I couldn't see anything.
But I heard an unfamiliar footstep behind me, and the sound was deep and muffled, like a heavy pad of flesh colliding with the ground.
But after a while, the sound died down, and I stopped and looked behind me.
Liang Houzai and Liu Shangang also stopped, looking at the darkness behind them.
After a while, Liang Houzai turned around and said to me, "I think I have been transferred to another cemetery." ”
I didn't understand what Liang Houzai meant: "Transfer? ”
As I spoke, I turned around and continued to walk towards the depths of the tomb, and Liang Houzai explained behind me: "These tombs should also be segmented, and each section will move, Brother Dao, do you remember, there were monster footprints in one of the tombs we walked before, and it suddenly appeared in a certain section of the tomb, and then suddenly disappeared. ”
Indeed, at that time, I found that the footprints were gone, and I was still wondering, there were no holes in the tomb on both sides, where could that monster go?
But if the tomb road is segmented and each section can be moved, why have we walked for so long, and the dozen or so tomb roads along the way have not changed?
There are too many mysteries in this tomb that I can't explain, but Liang Houzai seems to have figured them all out. Seriously, it makes me a little unbalanced.
