Chapter 19: The Rain of Arrows in the Tomb

At this time, Shangguan Yaxiong and Yang Gang ran into the tomb one after another and hid in a safe place. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Lao Hu, you have been shot." Yang Gang was taken aback, and now when he looked outside, he understood, fortunately, he was lucky and ran fast, otherwise he would have become a hedgehog.

Nor did anyone stay in the chamber for a moment.

"Old Hu, I'll pull out the arrow for you and bandage the wound." I said as I reached for the arrow in the bearded man's left arm.

However, at this time, Yang Gang suddenly shouted at me: "Slow, this arrow is poisonous." ”

"Ahh ”

"Aren't you talking nonsense, can the arrows fired by the anti-tomb mechanism kill you? What is wanted is for the tomb robbers to stay and be buried. Old K said quickly and replied to the bearded man without thinking.

"It's over, it's over, it's over!" The bearded man was so frightened that his face turned green.

Yang Gang glared at Lao K and scolded: "Don't talk nonsense, let me take a look first." ”

"Yang liar, is this poisonous?" I also glared at Lao K and asked Yang Gang.

Yang Gang looked at the arrow that was still inserted in the bearded man's left arm and frowned, and then said with a smile: "It is highly poisonous, but now the toxicity has weakened, if you are hit by this arrow when you just put it in, you will definitely die, and now the toxicity has decreased a lot, it should be fine for the time being, and it is not a big problem to seek medical attention in time." ”

After listening to Yang Gang's words, the bearded man breathed a sigh of relief, and I also breathed a sigh of relief for him, as long as he doesn't die now, everything still has a chance, let's go out in time and get to the hospital in time.

"What now, is this arrow still on my arm?" The bearded man said with a sigh.

Yang Gang shook his head and said, "It's not necessary, you can pull it out, it shouldn't be inserted deeply." ”

My retracted hand lifted again, ready to pluck the arrow from my arm for the bearded man.

At this time, Yang Gang said to me again: "It's best not to touch it directly and wear gloves." ”

Well, in that case, I had to put on my gloves, hold the bearded arm in one hand, and reach for the arrow with the other, and hold the arrow tightly, and in the process, the bearded man's expression told me that it hurt.

"Bear with me, I'll be inserted quickly, instantly." I comforted the bearded man and thought to myself, it was better not to hurt the femoral head.

The bearded man nodded at me and motioned for me to pull out the arrow, and I pulled it out of his arm at once, and the bearded man snorted softly, of course, gritting his teeth and not screaming.

The arrow did not hurt the bones, but only stuck in the flesh of the bearded arm, and after being pulled out in an instant, blood gushed out, and a rope was found, tied to his arm, and then bandaged to stop the bleeding.

The arrow is in my hand, I hold it to watch, the size and length are about the same as the chopsticks we eat, except for the larger arrow, the arrow shaft is straight and smooth, it is made of copper, judging from the patina on the surface, it is well preserved, almost rust-free.

It's just that there is a layer of black on the copper arrow, which has been dyed by itself for a long time.

In the huge coffin in the hexagonal tomb, arrows were still being shot, a few of which were shot directly at the dome, and most of them turned around in the air, instantly turning into a rain of arrows and falling down.

The bronze arrows clanged on the ground.

"How could there be so many arrows in the coffin?" In the tomb, Lao K looked into the tomb with a flashlight, wondering how so many arrows were hidden in the coffin and had to be fired.

"That's not a coffin, it should be called a 'coffin', and the coffin is still inside." Yang Gang denied and corrected Lao K's words.

I frowned and stared at the huge coffin illuminated by the flashlight in my hand, it stands to reason that even if there were so many arrows in this large coffin, there should be no room for a crossbow machine to be fired.

Everyone stood at the entrance of the tomb and watched the rain of arrows in the burial chamber, and I looked back at the bearded arrow wound, if we were not lucky this time, but once we were shot by an arrow in the huge coffin, I guess we would have died a long time ago.

"It's gone, it's over." Shangguan Yaxiong told us at the entrance of the tomb.

I squeezed outside and shone my flashlight on the coffin, and sure enough, there were no more arrows in the coffin.

"It should be safe now, we can go out, but we have to be careful, there may be any remaining arrows that have not been fired." Yang Gang acted more cautiously, he spoke to us cautiously, and was the first to enter the tomb.

A group of five people slowly approached the huge coffin, and the copper arrows under their feet rubbed against each other to make a crisp sound.

"If copper is still valuable, you can sell these copper arrows for a lot of money." The bearded man flicked the brass arrows on the ground with his feet.

I made a visual inspection and roughly calculated, and the arrows shot out of the coffin were probably as many as a thousand catties.

"If only it were gold." Old K sighed, which reminded me of the golden arrow in the Qin Tomb.

We walked to the huge coffin, and slowly stretched our heads towards the coffin, and in the center of it was a black coffin, also of Nanmu, and the empty space around the coffin was also empty, the space where the arrows were fired.

"These spaces were originally placed with bright vessels, and it seems that this coffin is not filled with bright vessels, but arrows, and the arrows that have just been fired are placed in the coffin." Yang Gang looked at the bottom.

"Why can't I find a crossbow?" I frowned and looked inside the coffin.

Yang Gang nodded and smiled: "Let's see if there is something strange in this coffin." ”

I put my hand in, Yang Gang was startled, but it didn't stop me, this kind of thing has to be done by someone, since I took the initiative to reach out, that's it.

Yes, I found this anomaly, the black coffin was inlaid inside, only part of it was exposed, there was an anomaly at the bottom of the coffin, there was a hole in the middle of the partition, and there was another hole under the partition.

"Why is this black coffin so short?" Old K looked sideways at me and asked.

I shook my head and said to Old K, "Look again, it's not that the coffin is short, but that there is a partition in the coffin." ”

"Oh, yes, yes, I said how it looks so awkward, it looks like the crossbow machine that fired the arrow is under the partition." Old K suddenly understood and told me.

My hand stroked the partition, a cold feeling, the partition was also painted black, I thought it was the same material as the coffin, made of nanmu, but I didn't expect that it was actually made of copper. The holes in the partitions were unconventionally punched, and the paint in the holes had been worn off, perhaps from the time the arrow was fired.

"Remove this partition and we'll see what's going down there." The bearded man looked at the wound on his arm and said to us.

I immediately shook my head: "Don't be impulsive, I don't know what is going on below, but once I touch the mechanism again, it will be troublesome." ”

Yang Gang replied to me: "Even if you want to take it out, it is not easy. ”
