Chapter 33: The Coffin Mechanism
"I've never seen a coffin like this, and one that opens on its side?" Lao Jiang looked inside curiously, only to see a faint blue-green light like fireflies in the coffin, Lao Jiang rubbed his eyes vigorously, "What is that?" ”
Yu Yue was obviously a little scared, there had never been a fire in the coffin, "That's ...... Ghost fire? ”
"Well, don't you know that fire can't burn where there's air? This coffin is so sealed that the fire has long been extinguished. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Yu Yue thought for a while, looked at Lao Jiang and then looked at the poker face, and then asked, "Could it be because the moment we opened the coffin, the air entered, so we lit up the phosphorus fire inside." The fire is blue-green. ”
As Yu Yue was talking, his poker face burrowed into the coffin in front of him, and half of his body disappeared into the darkness of the coffin. A hand on the other side waved at them, signaling them to stay still.
Poker Face borrowed the searchlight on his head, little by little along the coffin wall, the coffin was very large, enough for Poker Face to walk in half-bold. It is a simple bronze coffin, which is shaped like a coffin on the outside, but on the inside it is like a square passage. The searchlight hit the bronze wall inside the bronze coffin, and the dark green bronze wall swallowed the light into it little by little, forming a faint halo of reflection. The poker face walked for a while, and saw that the little firefly in front of him slowly grew larger and brighter, forming a chassis like a bowl-sized flame in front of his eyes, burning quietly.
At this time, Poker Face had already reached the bottom of the flame, and he looked up at the flame quietly, then slowly moved his gaze down, and finally quickly saw the bronze lampstand supporting the flame. This lampstand is exactly the same as the one in the former burial chamber.
"What's going on?" At the same time, Poker Face heard Lao Jiang's voice behind him, "Why is it a fire table again?" Then Lao Jiang looked at the faint blue light without a little temperature, and said clearly, "This must be the lamp oil made of mermaid fat." ”
"How did you put a lamp in there?" Lao Jiang was puzzled, this tomb was originally different from other tombs, plus this huge but empty coffin, "I'm about to refresh my three views because of this tomb, where is this box of a hundred ghosts, there is nothing at all." ”
Pokerface hadn't spoken since the moment, he was pondering something else, he couldn't remember what he had done when he saw this identical lampstick in the former burial chamber. He stood there, frowning at the lampstand that looked a little tall in front of him, and suddenly turned his head to look at Lao Jiang with confused eyes, "Lao Jiang, this, what should I do?" ”
There has always been only Lao Jiang who asked Poker Face what to do, but now that he has changed, Lao Jiang feels very wrong, and he doesn't know how to answer Poker Face for a while.
Compared with Lao Jiang, Yu Yue's surprise was no less than that of Lao Jiang, and this suspicion made Yu Yue feel a little disappointed in the poker face in front of him. At the same time, the contradiction in my heart deepened. Shen, you should know what to do, right? Yu Yue couldn't help but think in her heart.
"Well, I don't know." Lao Jiang smiled apologetically, "Although I am with ...... Ah Shen ...... I have been down to this tomb together, but the bronze lampstand in the front tomb was done by Ah Shen. As for how to do it, I don't know wow. Lao Jiang touched the back of his head, looked at Yu Yue's expression, and said carefully.
Of course, Poker Face remembered the situation at that time, and he struggled to recall the events before and after turning on the bronze lampstand, and what puzzled him was that he could almost remember all the other details, except for this one, as if a crack had appeared in his memory for no reason, cutting off this small and important memory. He couldn't remember.
Poker Face churned, he knew that the missing part of his memory was the crux of the matter. Inside the bronze coffin, the air was unusually cold and dry.
"You say, 'Who built this coffin?' Lao Jiang took advantage of the light of the searchlight to grope the inner wall of the bronze coffin, "Come and see, there is a relief on the inner wall of this coffin." ”
Poker Face couldn't remember how to open this fire platform, and saw that Yu Yue had already come to Lao Jiang. I want to get a little clue, too. So they leaned over to see it. The light from the heads of the three of them shone on the wall together, and what appeared on the wall turned out to be a landscape map.
"What is this, Shanshui?"
"Ahh Hearing Yu Yue scream, she hurriedly covered her eyes, "This way, this way." ”
Old Jiang Chong Yu Yue looked in front of him, and in the huge landscape picture, a huge human face was carved. The sound of "wow" provoked Lao Jiang to be frightened. The poker face was not frightened, and looked there in the exclamation of Lao Jiang, the face was a full meter in diameter, the bruises on the face were exposed, and the face was hideous.
"Is this Tinghu Yu?" Poker Face said, raised his hand to remove the searchlight on Lao Jiang's head, and walked to the side. Sure enough, on the left ear of the human face, there were two green snakes that were the thickness of a bowl, and on his feet, there were two red snakes.
Poker face ran back and forth along the coffin, and his heart became more and more puzzled, if this was a coffin, then why did he carve Buting Huyu on the inside of the coffin. Buting Hu Yu is a monster in the Book of Mountains and Seas. It is recorded in the Book of Mountains and Seas that in the South China Sea, there are gods, human faces, two green snakes, two red snakes, and Hu Yu. Buting Hu Yu is the god of the South China Sea, so those heads ...... Poker Face has a plan in his heart. Ran back to the side of the fire platform, glanced up and down, only to find that there were many pieces arranged on the copper pillar of the fire platform, at first glance there were no rules, and when you look closely, these pieces have soft lines and seem to have their own rules. There seems to be a place where the bumps can be spliced. Poker Face stroked the pieces with his hands, and his fingertips felt a slightly cold softness, but the sensation was unusually familiar. He stopped what he was doing, his fingertips stuck in the tips of the broken fingers, his fingers straining slightly. Little by little, the fragments of the fingertips slowly rotated along the inner pillars of the copper platform. Pokerface found the trick, but he still couldn't remember what the result of the movement of his fingertips was. He slowly relaxed and moved down. Turn again.
Poker's face turned very slowly, because as soon as he turned, there was a clicking sound throughout the coffin, which looked extremely terrifying and terrifying.
"What's going on?" Yu Yue had recovered from the shock just now, and she vaguely remembered that Ah Shen had described the bronze fire platform of this submarine tomb, and she remembered. "It's supposed to be a couple of animals."
Ah Shen? Poker face faintly thought in his heart, what he didn't remember, why did Ah Shen know. "Are those animals?" Pokerface asked.
Yu Yue seemed to be thinking, put her hand on her chin, and raised her face slightly. "It seems to be...... White rabbits, toads and ......"
"Three-legged bird." Poker Face said calmly, and the finger movements stopped abruptly. On the huge cylindrical bronze fire platform, from top to bottom appear the white rabbit toad and the three-legged bird.
The clicking stopped, and silence returned to the coffin.
"What is it?" Lao Jiang leaned over and asked. He couldn't wait to come over to see the results, and just approached, before he could take a look, he saw the blue-green flames on the fire platform jump, and then, when he heard a boom, Lao Jiang stood unsteadily, and grabbed the arm of the poker face. Poker Face grabbed the bronze fire platform closest to him, and at the same time did not forget to hold Yu Yue's hand.
"What's going on?" Yu Yue held the hand that was a little cold on the poker face, and asked nervously in the strong airflow.
"It's a trap." Poker Face said calmly, quietly waiting for the movement caused by the mechanism to disappear. After a long time, calm finally returned, and the whole coffin was a little tilted, and they did not slip to the side because they had grasped the fire platform.
"Poker Face lets go." Lao Jiang shouted. As he spoke, he let go of Poker Face's hand and slid to the side that was slanting downward.
"What's going on with this coffin?" Yu Yue looked up at the poker face, and through the light above his head, he faintly saw the gentle eyes of the poker face under the pale light, and somewhere in his heart was touched, and the moment he lowered his head, his face was slightly red.
"Come out and see." I don't know when, Lao Jiang had already run to the outside of the coffin and shouted loudly inside.
"Let's go." Poker Face said quietly, the voice was small enough for Yu Yue to hear.
Yu Yue obediently let go of Poker Face's hand and slid down from the bronze table. Slid to the bottom and glanced back at the poker face, then ran to the exit of the coffin.
Poker Face turned to look at the flames above the bronze table, still burning quietly, radiating a faint blue-green glow in the darkness.
When Poker Face went outside, he was also stunned by the sight in front of him. I saw that the whole huge coffin had tilted over, and in the gap between it and the ground, a huge crack was opened, and the crack went down, and it turned out to be an endless staircase.
"How?" Lao Jiang was proud of his discovery, "It seems that the person who built this coffin is also a person." ”
Poker Face looked at the stairs under his feet, faintly worried.
