Chapter 19 Trading
The tide outside can no longer affect our state of mind, compared to the news we just heard, it is simply a drizzle. The elixir of life, I didn't expect that there would be such a thing in the world, and the living example is right in front of me.
This kind of subversion of common sense is really incredible, there is really such a panacea in the world? If Li Rat's words were true, then would Qin Shi Huang also take this medicine, but why did he die in the end, and could there be anything else going on? Or rather, there is a gap in the record of history.
Seeing that we didn't speak, Li Rat was also silent, as if waiting for us to digest the news we had just heard, and after a long time, he saw that I looked like I wanted to speak before he spoke: "Don't ask about superfluous things, I was just a small person at that time, and I didn't know more things, and it was impossible to know." ”
Indeed, through a few short words of Li Rat, I got a lot of information from it, and more questions surfaced in my mind, but he himself said other things that he didn't know, so even if I asked, I couldn't get the answer I wanted, and if I wanted to unravel the truth of history, it seemed that I could only continue to explore.
After a long while, Li Rat continued: "Don't talk nonsense, my time is almost up, how about making a deal with you?" ”
"Time is running out, won't it, look at you like this, you have lived for more than 2,000 years, don't say that we killed you when we came in, who will believe it." I thought to myself, looking at him with strange eyes, and a look on his face at the deal.
"Haha" but Li Rat laughed, "Although I am immortal, I am trapped here and can't move, so I have developed the habit of sleeping, and I only have half an hour of awake time every day, otherwise what do you think I rely on to survive, and you are lucky to come when I am awake." ”
"I see," I was relieved and intrigued by the deal he was talking about. "I don't know what the seniors have to order?"
"I can't tell you anything, just take what you need, I'll tell you a shortcut to go down, and you can find a way for us to survive." After speaking, he squinted his eyes, and seemed to be able to see the outside world through the bricks and stones, and he yearned for it indescribably.
I hesitated for a while, and turned my head to look at Jing Xiu and Xiang Ji behind me, but what I saw on their faces was firm, and I understood what they meant.
At first, we came in to save people, but as things developed, now we are for the purpose of decryption and exploration, and since there is a shortcut to the real grave, of course we will not miss the opportunity.
But then I thought about it and felt that it was a little inappropriate, it seems that except for the Li Rat, the other corpse blood rats are the masters who eat living creatures, we have reached an agreement with your ancestors, and they will kill them after going out, which is not very good. The other thing is what it means to let them survive, and now my head is so messed up that I don't know how to answer.
Seeing that I was hesitant, Li Rat was worthy of being an old monster who had lived for more than 2,000 years, and he immediately guessed my inner thoughts, not knowing whether he was clear or old.
"What are you thinking, I know, when you go out, pull some hair from my body, they will naturally not attack you when they smell me, as for the other point, you can just destroy the control hub of the entire ancient tomb, it is down there."
Although Li Rat said this, but I don't think it's weird, the yearning on his face just now is really real, but now how can he say that it is okay to destroy the control hub. Why can you go out and stay in this place where birds don't, I really wondered in my heart, and somehow it showed on my face.
Seeing that I still didn't understand, Li Rat sighed heavily and explained: "We have merged with the entire tomb, and now we can't get out, and there are things on the walls of the tomb that restrain us, and we will die if we touch it." So we can only survive here, and the only exit is the underground river, but you can't help us with this, do you understand? ”
Although Li Rat's words were vague, I still understood the general meaning, they wanted to enter and exit the ancient tomb normally, it was impossible, only by water. If the control hub is destroyed, then not only will they not have to be cleared regularly, but they will also be able to get food from it, and after they are familiar with the nature of the water, they can find a way to get out of this place in earnest.
No matter how you look at this deal, we take advantage of it, and after figuring everything out, the mood has become better, regardless of whether Li Rat has other plans or not, but for now, it is still quite beneficial to us.
"Okay, Senior Li, I promise you." I said without a hint of hesitation.
Li Rat yawned, as if he was about to fall asleep, and said listlessly: "The shortcut to go below is in the middle of the organ tomb, where there is a lifting platform, only when the water outside recedes, the mechanism will be activated, and the mechanism will only be activated at low tide during the day, and at other times~~"
Finally he fell asleep and snored like thunder, shaking the whole secret room, and I was speechless, thinking to myself, "Two thousand years of habits will indeed not be changed for a while." ”
Shook his head helplessly, and when he was completely asleep, he boldly walked over, plucked a handful of hair and returned to Jingxiu and them, sat down, we were all staring at each other, I didn't know what to say.
There was silence on the field, and it was only the sound of snoring and the faint light in my ears that it took a long time for me to break the silence. "What do you think about this?"
"Hehe" Xiang Ji laughed, pointed to his nose and said happily: "Of course I want to go down, for now, this tomb is not my goal, but even the elixir has appeared, I am very curious about who the owner of this tomb is." ”
I didn't pay attention to Xiang Ji, a madman, he is a master and bold, and he can do anything, my little arms and thin legs can't compare with him. Although the artifact of the real tomb below must be very attractive, but judging from the two places of the virtual tomb and the trap tomb, the real tomb below does not know how many times more dangerous it will be.
Now we don't have much equipment, it's not a wise choice to go down so rashly, the best way is to go back to the ground now, prepare the professional inverted bucket equipment and come down again, make up your mind in your heart, just wait for a person's decision.
I looked at Jingxiu, hoping that she could also talk about her thoughts, but unexpectedly Jingxiu was in a daze, which couldn't help but surprise me, patted her on the shoulder and asked, "Unlucky girl, what's wrong with you?" ”
Jingxiu seemed to be thinking about something just now, and suddenly came back to her senses when I slapped her like this. "Let's pack up and get ready."
I was speechless for a moment, and my feelings will become bigger with Xiang Ji's courage, and I won't be so reckless with the prospect show, so I opened my mouth to persuade: "I'm afraid there is no safety guarantee for us to go down now, the equipment is pitiful, and we have suffered a lot on the upper two floors, so if we go down rashly, I'm afraid there will be some danger." ”
I said this is a very euphemistic, what is a certain danger, the danger is simply great, but I found that Jingxiu was not listening to me at all, but lit a lighter and was reading a document, I took a closer look and found that this was the thing she showed me yesterday, and thought: "Did she find something on it?" ”
I was about to open my mouth to ask, when suddenly there was a sound of the mechanism activating at the door, and then the door opened, and all I saw were a pair of eyes shining with blue light, as if they were eating something, and when they heard a noise, they turned their heads to look this way.
