Chapter 554: Moving the Labyrinth
In fact, there is another sentence I didn't say, the most evil thing about the fetal corpse is that it can make people immortal to some extent. The host parasitized by the fetal corpse will not die completely unless it is burned to ashes, but when the host is extremely lacking in nutrients, it will fall into a long dormant state.
Such sleep may last for thousands or even tens of thousands of years, during which time the host will continue to wither, but will never decay.
Senior Brother Geng wiped the cold sweat on his head and smiled awkwardly at me: "I haven't been to the grave for many years, and it was indeed my negligence just now." ”
I sighed, then crouched down and struck the ground with the hilt of my steeled sword.
I suspected that there might be a secret passage underneath the coffin, but when the green steel sword hit the ground, there was only a very dull sound, and the bronze coffin was solid underneath.
When I was about to get up, there was a "click, click, click" sound from the depths of the tomb behind me, and I didn't pay much attention to it at first, but it didn't take long for the tomb to suddenly shake, and then there was a click in the tomb, the sound was not very low, and when it sounded, it was accompanied by a slight buzzing sound.
I turned around and looked towards the side of the tomb, and saw that they had entered the tomb, and there was nothing unusual in the tomb.
After a few seconds, there was a crisp "click" sound in the tomb, like the sound made when the porcelain piece was stepped on, and at the same time, the tomb also trembled violently a few times, and a large cloud of dust splashed down from the top of the tomb entrance, completely covering the entire tomb entrance.
In order to avoid the dust, they leaned towards me one after another, and Xian'er complained: "Why did it suddenly earthquake, cough cough...... Choked to death. ”
I waved at her and motioned for her to be silent.
When I made this move, I never looked away from the entrance to the tomb. When I walked in the tomb before, I could clearly feel that there was wind circulating in the tomb road, and those winds were enough to blow away this large cloud of dust, but the dust was very calm now, and there was almost no external force affecting them, and they could only slowly dissipate on their own.
I had a faint feeling that the moment the dust appeared, the tomb seemed to disappear, and even the wind in the tomb disappeared.
After a while, the dust gradually dissipated, and what appeared in front of me was a bronze wall covered with erosion, and the entrance to the tomb was indeed gone.
Xian'er glanced back behind her, and when she found that the entrance to the tomb had become a solid wall, she also had an incredible expression.
I asked Xian'er, "Xian'er, can you still pass through the wall now?" ”
It took Xian'er a long time to come back to her senses and shake her head at me.
Actually, I asked her such a question completely superfluous, she is now a real entity, and it is strange that she can pass through walls.
Brother Geng patted me on the shoulder and gestured around the tomb.
When I looked back, I saw that there was a tomb entrance on each of the other three solid walls in the burial chamber, and the shape of the three tomb openings was completely different, one arched, one square, and one was a regular circle. There is a large amount of dust floating around each tomb crossing.
What's going on, the ground only shook a few times quickly just now, not only making the original tomb road disappear, but also instantly creating three new tomb passages on the three copper walls?
I sank my heart and asked Senior Brother Geng, "Is this also the means of the First Ancestor?" ”
Senior Brother Geng shook his head: "I don't know." This tomb should be active, and the current tomb is still the same as before, but the environment around the tomb has been replaced. ”
This time he was very deliberately calm, but I could tell that he was even more nervous than before.
In terms of character, Senior Brother Geng is still a big step behind Senior Brother Zhuang and Senior Brother Feng.
I took out the glass egg and held it in the palm of my hand, and the glass egg didn't move. The little boar seemed to be frightened, and hid at Luo Fei's heels, only half of his head to look at me.
I asked Senior Brother Geng, "Can the feng shui plate be used now?" ”
Senior Brother Geng said to me, "The magnetic field here is very strong", and then I took out the feng shui compass, and I saw that the pointer on the compass was shaking irregularly, and in this place, Senior Brother Geng's compass also failed.
Now it's a problem!
I stood in the middle of the burial chamber and frowned as I looked at the three burial entrances. I have a vague feeling that if I continue to stay in this tomb, everyone will be in danger. But among the three graves in front of me, which one should I choose?
After a moment of contemplation, I took the fox fire lantern from Xian'er's hand and walked towards the archway.
The others followed me in as soon as they saw me enter the tunnel.
The vaults and walls of this tomb are greased, and it seems that they were also made of bronze, and it is not known where the people who built the tomb got this bronze from there.
Senior Brother Geng came over to me and asked, "Where can this tomb road lead?" ”
I said, "I don't know." Senior Brother Geng, you can't ask me about this kind of thing, you are the doorman of Yuxian's lineage. ”
Senior Brother Geng showed a hint of nervousness: "You don't know where it leads...... That is to say, the evil spirit in this tomb is heavier than the other two? ”
I held the lantern higher and replied, "There is no evil aura in the three grave passages. I chose this cemetery because I think it looks better than the other two. ”
After speaking, I stuffed a piece of Shouyang candy to Senior Brother Geng and said to him: "Senior Brother Geng, whenever you go to the tomb, no matter what happens, you must stabilize your mind, you are a little messed up now." ”
Hearing me say this, Senior Brother Geng's expression became very embarrassed.
I glanced back at Dawei again, and he looked even more nervous than Senior Brother Geng.
Alas, it seems that even if Senior Brother Geng and Dawei are not going to the tomb for the first time, at least they rarely have the experience of going to the tomb, and before coming here, I thought the two of them were experts.
Not long after walking along this archway, three more forks appeared in front of me.
On the opposite side of this fork, there are still circular crossings, square crossings and an arched crossing.
I stood where I was, looking at the three forks in the road directly opposite and lost my thoughts.
From the perspective of the five elements, the circle and arch are all gold, the square is earth, two gold and one soil, but it corresponds to the characteristics of this tomb, whether it is the tomb road or the tomb just now, most places are covered with bronze, only the top and the ground can see the slate and soil, although the stone is born from the soil, but the five elements are also gold.
The structure of the five elements of this tomb is dominated by heavy gold and weak soil, and the yin soup that seeps out of the soil belongs to water. Although the structure of the tomb is a gold-soil structure, this design responds to the wateriness of the yin soup everywhere.
I remember that the "Examination of the Walking Dead" left to me by Master said that although the yin soup is evil, it can block the evil spirit, and the grave builder put so much effort into the yin soup, it should be to suppress the evil qi on the evil thing.
Thinking of this, I beckoned to Dawei at the back of the line: "Dawei, shoot at the ground." ”
David was stunned for a moment, then picked up his sniper rifle and fired a shot at the ground behind him.
The old stone slab on the ground could not withstand the impact of the sniper rifle at all, and it was suddenly pierced through a hole, and the rubble flew sideways for a while.
Dawei was still more particular when he shot, and the impact point was far away from the crowd, otherwise these sharp flying stones alone would be enough for us to drink a pot.
I came to the hole where the bullet had been hit, and shone it with a fox fire lantern, and I saw that the hole was slowly oozing out of the soup, and when there was more soup, I sank the glass egg in it.
After the glazed egg was submerged in the Yin Soup, it could no longer perceive the evil qi in the tomb, and it stood still for a moment, and then moved a small distance straight ahead.
I put away the glass eggs and walked towards the square grave road directly opposite.
If you follow this direction, you should be able to find the source of the yin soup.
This time, Senior Brother Geng didn't ask me again why he chose such a tomb path, but just walked sullenly beside me.
This positive direction of the cemetery is very long, we walked for a long time, and we still couldn't see the end of the cemetery, during which there was a crisp "click" sound behind us.
The voices made me feel a little uneasy, and maybe the structure of the tomb changed again as we walked through the grave.
After walking some distance, I took out my flashlight and shone into the darkness ahead, this tomb seems to have no end, since entering the tomb, we have been walking for nearly two hours, but the searchlight beam still cannot penetrate the darkness ahead.
I stopped, let David make a hole in the ground, and then used the glazed egg to test whether the source master of the Yin Soup had changed direction, but fortunately, the direction had not changed, and the path we chose was still right.
At that moment, the voice that had been seen behind the burial chamber reappeared, but this time, it appeared in front of us, and it was louder than the previous times.
The ground shook a few times, and I could clearly see that a copper wall in the tomb also shook twice, and then there was a splash of dust, and when the dust cleared, a burial chamber appeared in front of us.
There was no exit to the tomb where we were, but now the exit was right in front of us, and on the other side of the exit was a burial chamber.
The same is only a few square meters of area, and there are three bronze coffins.
Senior Brother Geng frowned and said to me, "The structure of the tomb is really changing, let's go back to the tomb just now." ”
I shook my head, "No, it's not the same burial chamber. In the previous burial chamber, I opened the coffin, and there should be no grease on the lid of the middle coffin, but the three coffins in this burial chamber have obviously not been touched. ”
As I spoke, I walked into the burial chamber. In fact, it's not just that the coffin hasn't been touched by me, but the Qi field here is also different from the previous tomb, in this tomb, there is a trace of evil qi, but the evil qi is very weak, and if you don't pay special attention, you can hardly sense it.
As I stood in the tomb, I noticed that the earth was falling from time to time overhead, and I held up a fox fire lantern to shine it, only to find a large group of ghost-eyed shovels crawling along the top of the tomb.
Senior Brother Geng looked up and said to me, "Is it a ghost-eyed spade?" ”
I nodded: "This thing is the natural enemy of all fetal corpses, and there are many of them in the tombs over there in Erlong Bay." ”
The appearance of the fetal corpse and the ghost-eyed spade at the same time also seems to confirm that the designer of the Dragon King's Tomb and the bronze tomb in front of him is the same person.
I knocked on the bronze coffin next to me with a green steel sword, and the sound of feedback was muffled, and there was a "squeak" friction sound in the coffin. Like the coffin in the previous burial chamber, this coffin also contained a large number of fetal corpses, which were solid underneath.
On the bronze wall behind me, there are three tomb entrances of different shapes, and we just walked in through the square tomb entrance.
Senior Brother Geng's gaze kept wandering between the three tomb crossings, and he hesitated for a long time before saying to me, "Try that round crossing, right?" ”
