King Zhuang's Curse Chapter 19: Huang Cong's Soul Terrace (2)
The atmosphere suddenly froze, and I felt that the surroundings were terrifyingly quiet, and Captain Li, who had always been assertive, was also blank in his heart, and all the previous ominous premonitions poured into his mind. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Song Ming fell to his knees with a thud and shouted at the ancient corpse: "The junior has no intention of offending, please forgive the sins, forgive the sins......"
Captain Li pulled Song Ming up and said indignantly: "Your kid's head is in the water, come with me to take a look!" ”
Song Ming said that he would not go over anything, he didn't want to stay for a moment. Everything here seems so quiet, but there is also a strange secret, and the simpler it is, the more unsettling it becomes.
This dungeon is like an open embrace, deliberately throwing people into it, and then slowly devouring people.
Captain Li also sensed the existence of danger, and the two of them ran out quickly along the corridor, and the footsteps of "popping and clicking" echoed in the silent underground palace, and the two of them did not dare to breathe, holding their breath, running faster and faster.
I don't know how long I ran, but I was so tired that I was out of breath and slowed down. According to the distance they had come, they were about to reach the exit of the tomb, and after a little relief, the two of them accelerated to run again.
Running and running, a half-open copper door came into view, and the two of them stopped suddenly, and looked behind them at the same time, a straight road, long and long.
Song Ming's facial muscles twitched, his hand kept pointing at the bronze door, looking at Captain Li, and the words were stuck in his throat and couldn't speak.
Captain Li's heartbeat was also accelerating, but out of awe of his profession, he forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart, stepped forward and pushed open the other half of the bronze door, his own figure swayed in the mirror, and the ancient corpse sat quietly on the stool, staring straight out of the door, as if welcoming their arrival.
"Team Li, we won't have encountered the Soul Hanging Ladder......" Song Ming came to his senses and said in a low voice.
Captain Li shook his head: "This road is flat, there is no step at all, how can there be a soul ladder!" ”
Captain Li thought to himself, maybe he ran too fast just now and didn't pay attention to the fork in the road, but there was obviously only one road on this road, and he couldn't remember where he went wrong.
"Go in and see if it's the burial chamber just now!" Team Li walked in as he spoke, and Song Ming followed.
In the lobby, a sitting ancient corpse, a beautiful jade coffin, and even the carvings on the wall are exactly the same as before, it seems that it has really gone through a fork in the road and is back.
The two left in a hurry, not forgetting to look back at the bronze door, and their figures disappeared into the mirror again, having had such an experience once, they were also used to it.
Captain Li said to Song Ming: "It seems that there is no danger here, it's just a labyrinth, let's go slower this time." ”
The two of them held hands side by side, with their front heels on their back toes, and walked out step by step, for fear that something would go wrong.
On both sides of the road are towering stone pillars, each with the pillar is hung with an ever-bright lamp, behind the stone pillar is a rockery made of loess, on which there are unknown plants, in a trance I thought it was walking on the path of the night tourist attraction.
After walking for a long time, they actually came to the bronze gate again, and this time it is certain that there is absolutely no fork in the road.
Captain Li calmed down and said to Song Ming: "Every time we enter the bronze gate, we are no longer in the mirror, maybe there is a mechanism in this tomb, this time we don't go in, just turn back." ”
The two turned around and walked back, and soon after, they came to the bronze gate again.
Fear and depression struck, and the two of them stood in front of the bronze door, too tired to stand on their feet, or frightened.
Song Ming gasped and said, "Team Li, we're going to be trapped here!" ”
"Don't be so superstitious, everything in the world has cause and effect, and fear will make you lose your mind!"
Captain Li pondered, since this infinite loop of Yongdao has nothing to do with the copper gate, the problem must be in a certain link on the road. How to judge where the turning point is, Captain Li thought for a long time and finally came up with a solution.
He took out a roll of thin rope for exploration from his backpack and handed it to Song Ming, holding the end of the rope himself, and said to Song Ming: "You stand still, hold it tightly, put it little by little, let the rope always be tight, I go forward, if the rope suddenly loosens, it means that the place where I am standing is the turning point." ”
Song Ming admired Captain Li's mind, and the two acted according to the plan.
Standing in front of the bronze gate, Song Ming held the coil in his hand, looking at the figure of Team Li's long run, and his heart was uneasy. Time passed minute by minute, and the rope was always tight, and it was pulled forward little by little by Captain Li.
This rope is used by the archaeological team to measure the area of the underground palace, the length is enough to go around the corridor a few times, Song Ming is not worried that Captain Li will not be able to go to the end, but the ancient corpse in the bronze door behind him makes him feel panicked, standing here alone, it is inevitable that he is a little scared.
Song Ming subconsciously turned his head to look at the bronze gate behind him, but the scene in front of him surprised him, a slowly flowing underground river, an arched stone bridge, and a bright entrance on the opposite side of the bridge, and he could also see the construction sign that "idlers are not allowed to enter" placed before they came in.
The bronze door is gone!
The rope was still tight, and Song Ming didn't have time to think about it, so he ran towards Captain Li quickly. At this time, Captain Li was standing in front of the bronze gate and pondering, he knew that Song Ming was on the other side of the road, but the bronze door appeared in front of him, and it was still the same.
"Captain Lee...... Captain Lee! Song Ming shouted and ran over.
Captain Li's thoughts were disrupted, he looked back at Song Ming and said, "Didn't you say that I would let you wait over there!" ”
"It's not...... I saw the exit just now! Song Ming said breathlessly.
"Where?"
"After you leave, the copper gate where I am standing disappears, and the exit is where the copper door is!"
Captain Li frowned, just now he had already thought of this possibility, so he said to Song Ming: "As long as you enter this underground palace, you must leave one person behind." ”
"What time is this, you still want to scare me!"
"I'm not kidding you this time!"
