Chapter 40: The Confucius Chamber
It's not too clear if it's far away, and I'm not sure if it's the legendary sarcophagus of Canghai Jun, but I only know that it's just over there. Perhaps the towering shadow was the builder of the Crystal Palace. The cloaked monster stood there and knew what it was for, and I immediately told the others to raise their muzzles and be ready to fire.
Liu Xiancheng said that the person wanted to move the dragon vein, could it be that the dragon vein was the thing in the sarcophagus? Or is it actually the dragon's eye in the place where the towering black sarcophagus-like thing is located?
After walking closer, there is a waterhole in the middle, the high platform stands behind the waterhole, there are two stone steps winding down from the left and right, we go around the waterhole from the left, Dabao looked into the waterhole, it is dark and can't see the bottom, and I don't know if there will be anything hidden inside.
I was reminded by his actions, it is impossible for this place to have an extra waterhole for no reason, even if this is a natural cave, there shouldn't be an extra waterhole in the sea, right?
The man above seemed to have spotted us, but instead of immediately turning away, the movement of his arm became louder and louder, as if he was operating something. I secretly said in my heart that this guy was probably looking for a mechanism to open the sarcophagus, and he couldn't let it succeed like this.
In a hurry, the speed of our rush over couldn't help but increase, and raising our hands to the black shadow was a shot, whether he hit it or not, it was okay to scare him.
Stepping on the stone steps, we didn't think about whether there would be any traps here, judging from the structure of this natural cave, if you want to set up a trap, the conditions here are too simple, the stone steps are not very long, there is only a place to turn the corner, everyone gritted their teeth and didn't care about the problem of physical strength, and rushed up in one breath, and a few muzzles stretched out.
Dabao shone the headlights, and everyone was immediately stunned.
And what about the guy in the cloak? On this high stone platform, there was not a single living creature on this high stone platform, let alone a human being, except for a towering giant black stone. And it's not particularly big on it, it's really not easy to hide someone, is this guy still invisible?
I told the group to search around cautiously.
Still not finding the man, I walked over to the rectangular black stone, which had no carvings, no traces of carvings, and looked like an ordinary underwater stone, but with a more square shape. I didn't think that the sarcophagus had a joint gap, in other words, it was not a coffin at all.
"Brother Xia, come here and find out!" Dabao shouted with the monkey on the side of the black square stone.
We walked over quickly, only to see where he was standing from the side, the square stone was moving forward about half a meter, cracking a hole that could pass through, I took the flashlight and shone it inside, sweeping away the darkness, and a black hole appeared in the light.
The width of the hole is just right for the square stone.
I said, "That guy probably went in, and we're going to follow!" ”
With that, he put the flashlight in his mouth and moved in with his rifle in both hands, and the others followed behind him. Entering the inside is a long and narrow tunnel, the body of the cave is smooth and flat, and it should be carved out by hand.
Fortunately, the cave is not long, and halfway through, I faintly heard a sound of swishing, like the sound of water, but it didn't feel like it, and there was no sense of impact like water.
"Huh!" Lei Hong whispered in surprise: "What's the end?" ”
I squeezed to the front, and with the help of the flashlight, there was no road outside the hole, and it was as dark as night ahead, only a broken rock, and it seemed that there was originally a road.
Lei Hong took out the rope and said, "I'll go down and have a look!" ”
I grabbed him and said, "It's not good to go down rashly like this, I don't know what happens next." "It's a pity that we didn't bring a glow stick this time, after all, who knew that we would encounter such a situation, so we had to count the flashlights, and asked the Z9 people to take out a flashlight with a similar charge, turn it on and throw it down.
The light of the flashlight flickered and fell.
We saw the liquid flowing slowly at the bottom, a viscous jade-white liquid, like a living thing, slowly 'crawling', it seemed that there was no danger, Lei Hong tied the rope and tied it to a broken rock, and then carefully leaned out a foot and slowly climbed down.
After estimating that he had put it for more than ten meters, he shook the end of the rope vigorously and gave him a signal. Then the feeling of the rope shaking came from below, and immediately I no longer hesitated, hanging on the rope and slowly climbing down, fortunately the cliff is not the kind of flat, otherwise there would be no place to borrow.
When I was about to go down to the bottom, I looked down at Lei Hong and found that there was no one on the other end of the rope, and I was shocked: Could it be that he was in danger? Subconsciously pulled the rope tightly and didn't dare to climb down again.
"What are you hesitating about?" At this time, Lei Hong's voice came up below, and the sound was a little empty, which may be a problem with the structure below.
I looked in the direction of the sound, it was this guy with a gun hiding in a dark place on guard, Made, I almost forgot what his identity was, no wonder I didn't see him just now, it turned out to be hidden.
By the time everyone had come down, the slowly wriggling liquid felt more real, and I didn't know what they were or where they were going to 'crawl'.
Dabao said softly: "Brother Xia, what do you think of those walls in front of you?" ”
Everyone moved the light source to the front of him, only to see a stone bridge with a diameter on the opposite side, crossing the Jade River, facing a cliff, the cliff wall was full of dense holes of the same size, like a termite hole on a piece of wood, which made people feel goosebumps when they saw it.
"There's no bugs crawling out of it, is it?" Dabao muttered.
Dong Bing's face was still a little pale, but his spirit was much better, and when he heard Dabao's words, he said: "Those holes are one meter in diameter, where did such a big insect come from, even if there is a deep sea here, I will starve to death." ”
After crossing the bridge, I suspiciously shone towards each cave, but unfortunately it was too deep to know what was going on inside, and suddenly, just as I shook my flashlight, there was a cave at the edge.
Shaking to the sunken eyes in one or two, the wrinkled face was like the dry old bark, and the whole cheek was bony as wood. He also seemed to see me, his shriveled lips cracked, and the inexplicable smile made my heart suffocate, and my breathing was a little miserable.
It's him! Sure enough, here it is.
