Chapter 81: The End of the Seven Stars
At the end of this passage is a rockery made of seven boulders, the surface of the stone is slippery, and there are some unusual holes to the touch, these holes have no traces of artificial excavation, but seem to have been naturally corroded by something.
I counted forty-nine holes, seven of which were in each stone.
"Seven Star Pass." I said to myself.
Jiang Yuan stood behind me, keeping a certain distance, holding a flashlight and looking at the seven boulders, "The seven stars are closing the road, it's a dead end." ”
"Crow's beak!" I looked back at him, "It's just seven stones, just push it away." ”
I tried to push a few times, but there was some hope, because these seven stones seemed to have a gap between each other, I was very happy in my heart, and my heart said that this is okay, the two of us can't push it, then add Baiyun and Guan Yue, maybe it will be enough.
"Yuan'er, you wait for me here, I'll go back to Baiyun and them."
Jiang Yuan seemed to have something to say, but before he could open his mouth, the whole mountain began to shake violently, like an earthquake.
The miner's lamp and the flashlight were thrown out far away, and they were instantly washed away by the current, and Jiang Yuan struggled to rescue only one flashlight, he threw the flashlight to me, and at the same time there was still a climbing rope that came over.
"Tie it around your waist and follow me."
As soon as I tied the rope, I felt a huge current of water rushing behind me, and if it weren't for this rope, I think I would have been carried away by the current by now.
It was like a reservoir releasing floodwater, and when the water slowed down, Jiang Yuan and I emerged from the water one after another, and everything in front of me made me feel incredible.
The seven boulders are no longer stacked together as they were earlier, but are arranged vertically, forming a stone bridge paved with seven boulders.
The flashlight passed, and at the end of the seven stones, the extension of the white jade platform hung with various colored crystals, which shone faintly in the dark, and at a glance, they were full of brilliance.
On this white jade platform, a sarcophagus sleeps on it, because the distance is too far for me to see what the intricate patterns on the sarcophagus are.
"Yuan'er, let's go over and have a look."
Jiang Yuan was covered in snow-white, and when I looked back at him, it really startled me.
Now the water is up to the knees, and it's still on an upward trend.
Jiang Yuan turned over and went into the water, and when he swam past me, he looked like a white shark underwater, and he popped up a little in front of me and said, "Brother, you step on that big stone and go forward, don't move when you walk to the seven stones, wait for me." ”
I did as he was told, climbed out of the water, and stood on the first stone, which began to sink slowly because it was carrying my weight, and I immediately jumped on the second stone, and the second one was the same.
During this time, Jiang Yuan had been in the water, he was following me, and he seemed to be knocking something with his hands underwater.
As he stood on the seventh stone, while the stone sank, the sarcophagus on the opposite side and the stone platform that carried it began to rise slowly.
Jiang Yuan suddenly disappeared from the water, I panicked for a while, this feeling was lost in Wangfujing once when I was a child, this is the second time.
"Yuan'er!"
There was a splash on the surface of the water, and Jiang Yuan floated up with white clouds, and they were about thirty or forty meters away from me.
Jiang Yuan dragged Baiyun out of the water, because their location was relatively close to the sarcophagus, so the two of them directly climbed onto the stone platform, and I followed, after jumping up, I found that this stone platform was actually a floating platform, and as soon as I stepped on it, I could feel the slight shaking under my feet.
"How is he? What about Guan Yue? I said as I walked over.
Bai Yun spat a few mouthfuls of water, smiled when he saw me, and then was a little surprised when he saw Jiang Yuan, but he didn't have a too exaggerated expression.
"Why don't you go out directly, saving me will delay your time, and you may not be able to get out."
Bai Yun looked at the two of us with a complicated expression, I asked him what Guan Yue was, Jiang Yuan said that he didn't see Guan Yue's figure underwater, Bai Yun also said that Guan Yue was very likely to be washed out of the mountain by the water of the waterfall, if this is the case, then under the waterfall is Qianlong Pond, Guan Yue still has a glimmer of hope.
But if you don't get out, you're trapped here, dead and dead.
Although Guan Yue and I haven't known each other for a long time, and we haven't established much brotherhood, but now when I hear Bai Yun say this, my heart is still very sad, my nose is sour, and I feel like crying.
There was a loud bang, a huge splash of water stirred up in front of the left, and the rumbling sound of water fell from the sky, Bai Yun's leg was injured, and he barely stood up holding on to the sarcophagus, "The time is up, the waterfall is starting to pour in, you two go quickly, don't delay any longer." ”
I looked at the two of them as if my heart was on fire, and there was a constant rumbling sound above my head, like thunder.
The water level rose very quickly, and the floating platform shook very strongly under the action of the water waves.
There was another boom, and then an extremely strong light came in, but it was only for a moment, the water began to change direction, and the floating platform began to rotate and move due to the impact of the current.
Jiang Yuan asked me to take care of Bai Yun, and he turned over and went into the water by himself, such a flow rate, not to mention a person, even an elephant was washed away like an ant.
But even so, I could only watch him disappear from my sight, leaning against the sarcophagus with Baiyun in his arms, looking at the water with the same expectant eyes.
The floating platform flows with the water, and Jiang Yuan has been down for almost five minutes, I don't know if he has surfaced somewhere else to change his breath, but I haven't seen anything within the range of my flashlight.
When I got closer, I found that the water rushed out of a gap, but I was happy but found that Bai Yun was a little unconscious, I tried to call him a few times, but he didn't respond, at this moment, Jiang Yuan supported the edge of the stone platform with one hand and turned up, I saw that he didn't add any new injuries, and my heart was somewhat relaxed.
"How?"
"Didn't find it."
Sure enough, as I expected, he turned into the water to find Guan Yue.
Now the water level is already very high, not only that, but I also saw that there seemed to be a black shadow swimming in the water, and my eyes swept over this sarcophagus, and my heart said that it is a black python under this water, and this sarcophagus is the main coffin of the tomb owner.
The three of them fought close to the sarcophagus, the speed of the water was getting faster and faster, and it was very close to the gap, and the giant python had also begun to circle around the stone platform, as if it was in a hurry.
"Yuan'er, this python is a little strange?"
Jiang Yuan looked into the water, "He seems to be warning us." ”
"Warning?" I had some discrepancies, "Warn us not to touch this sarcophagus?" ”
"No, it's supposed to warn us not to stand here."
"Huh?" I looked at where I was standing, and suddenly I understood something, and I tried to push the lid of the coffin with my hand, and I found that the coffin was not sealed.
"Yuan'er, help!" (To be continued.) )
