Chapter 1: Tomb Adventures
Peaceful, absolutely quiet.
Except for the slightly rapid breathing of a few people, the entire burial chamber was almost silent.
At this time, Professor Nie was standing in place with the other four archaeological team members, all of them staring blankly at the front, no one was willing to say the first sentence, the scene was embarrassing and weird.
It's no wonder that among the five people, only Professor Nie and an archaeological team member surnamed Zhang have gone down to the ancient tombs, and the remaining three are relatively young, and the ancient tombs they have inspected are all over-opened, with a huge sun on their heads, even if they are children, there is no pressure.
At this time, they were in a tomb like this, although there was a strong flashlight illumination, but the cold breath could not be dispelled with a flashlight, which was not felt by those who had not been to the ancient tomb.
What's more, at this time, in front of them was a huge coffin with a strong yin qi.
Yes, the coffin was standing there, not lying, and its heavy lid faced five people like this, as if it could fall down at any moment, revealing a thousand-year-old corpse inside.
What kind of legendary ghosts, what kind of zongzi in tomb robbery novels, at this time, a rush of brains rushed to the heads of the three young people.
Although they had never actually seen those legendary ghosts, it was because of this that the fear was slowly amplified.
"It's okay! There is always a first time, and the next time is good. ”
Nie Yuan turned his head to the three young people and comforted, seeing that the three of them were still so sluggish, and even forgot to swallow a mouthful of saliva, he immediately laughed dryly twice and said, "Don't worry! Those legendary dirty things can't be touched, although I'm not a pure materialist, but I've also had a lot of ancient tombs in my life, it's a pity, I haven't touched it once, sometimes I really want to touch it once, it's also a long insight, haha! ”
After saying that, he burst into a dry laugh again, and although the laughter was relaxed, it was even more creepy when it reverberated throughout the tomb.
Xiao Zhang next to him also echoed and laughed twice, but I don't know if he is really relaxed, or if he is secretly emboldened for himself.
After all, even if you have been to the tomb a thousand times, then when you are in a dark and unfamiliar environment again, there will also be an inexplicable fear and pressure, which is human instinct.
Under the illumination of the strong flashlight, the outline of the huge coffin was very clear, and it stood in the center of the entire tomb, looking extremely lonely and desolate.
What puzzled Professor Nie was that there was nothing else in the entire tomb except for this coffin, not even a piece of porcelain to accompany the burial, which had never appeared in his archaeological career for more than 30 years, and it was even more unheard of to place the coffin upright.
When it comes to the size of his courage, no one dares to say that he is really fearless, and Professor Nie is the same.
However, he is the leader of this archaeological team after all, and it is necessary to lead by example.
After a few minutes, Professor Nie settled down and led the other four people to slowly approach the coffin, until they walked to the side of the coffin, as if nothing had happened, which made Professor Nie and everyone breathe a little relieved, but the nervousness still existed.
Professor Nie groped on the side of the coffin, this is a stone coffin, very ordinary, if it is flattened, it should be able to reach the position of his waist and eyes, the length, just enough to fit a corpse.
At this time, the coffin was standing, and Professor Nie carefully groped for the gap between the lid and the main body of the coffin under the illumination of the strong flashlight.
The gap was large, a finger's width and did not seem to be very well sealed, so he also asked several other people to come to the side of the coffin, so that the lid of the coffin would not fall and hurt people, or be injured by the crossbow arrows that could be fired from inside at any time.
Perhaps it was inconvenient to probe with a flashlight in his hand, Professor Nie turned around and handed the flashlight to Xiao Zhang, asking Xiao Zhang to shine on the position of the gap, he wanted to see if he could see the situation inside the coffin through this gap.
After all, it is unrealistic to open the coffin directly now, not to mention the degree of danger, that is, the coffin lid that looks very heavy is not something that a few of them can handle, in case it can't hold it and smash it on the ground, it will be worth the loss, and only if you bring in large equipment in the future can you further deal with it.
However, just as he was peeking inside, he could only hear a "gurgling" sound on the side of the coffin.
It really made Professor Nie suddenly startled, and he took two steps back in an instant.
The other four were even more frightened, their whole bodies trembled, their scalps were numb, and one of the young people even shouted out, and then sat on the ground with weak legs.
"Don't make a sound!"
Professor Nie scolded softly, and then continued to listen to the situation in the coffin with his head sideways, but after a while, the "gurgling" sound did not appear again.
However, just when Professor Nie wanted to take another step forward to find out, the "gurgling" sound rang out again, and at this time, even Professor Nie's face was full of whiteness, full of horror.
Before a few people could react from their fear, the lid of the coffin gradually began to tilt in front of everyone's eyes, although it was so slow, but everyone present could see that it was indeed tilting, of course, you could also say, it was slowly opening.
No! It should have been pushed open, and it could only be pushed open by the ...... inside the coffin
Thinking of this, everyone's eyes widened, their mouths opened uncontrollably, and they even forgot that they could still escape.
At this time, the wheezing sound of several people had already overshadowed the weird "gurgling" sound, and the young man who was so frightened that he was sitting on the ground before had already begun to foam at the mouth at this time, Xiao Zhang hurriedly stepped forward and pinched his person fiercely, and the scene was a little panicked.
At this moment, the lid of the coffin seemed to be tilted to a critical angle, and under the traction of gravity, it quickly fell, and after a muffled sound, it lay on the ground without even bounced.
Everyone's eyes invariably looked at the erected coffin, although they all tried their best to control their thoughts, but they all subconsciously thought that the next moment, there might be a dry corpse stepping out, and they could even think of the hideous face, or the creepy scream.
However, a moment passed, but those imaginary images did not appear, and there was silence in the coffin, and even the previous "gurgling" sound was gone, and this silence at this time was actually not as good as a trace of sound.
Because in many ghost movies, isn't it all silent at first, and then suddenly a miserable or bloody face emerges.
Because they were all on the side of the coffin, no one could see the situation inside the coffin at this time, and the imaginary fear continued to spread, as if waiting for a moment to erupt.
Perhaps the fear reached the extreme, or the responsibility overrode the fear, Professor Nie, as the captain, suddenly snatched the flashlight in Xiao Zhang's hand and took a few steps towards the direction where the coffin lid fell, but his eyes never left the coffin.
Finally, at a certain angle, he could finally see the situation inside, and at that moment, his expression was even more surprised, and even a little out of control.
It turned out that the coffin was empty.
No, that's not accurate, to be exact, it's just space.
For some reason, Professor Nie suddenly took a step and walked towards the coffin with a strong flashlight, he was so hurried that he walked into the coffin in a few breaths.
Yes, he walked in.
In front of him was an extremely strange sight, this coffin had no bottom, and what appeared in front of him was a sloping down staircase, that is, this coffin turned out to be just a door, leading to the lower door, and the whole passage was a sloping downward structure, just the height that a person could pass through.
Professor Nie took the flashlight and swung it twice towards the end of the passage, but he couldn't see anything clearly, just darkness, except for the walls and walls, and the stone steps and stone steps.
At this point, his fear had turned to excitement, he didn't expect that there was a floor below this ancient tomb, and of course there might be more.
Professor Nie's face instantly wrapped in a hint of relief, this will be his adventure to rewrite history, he will become the first scholar in the archaeological community to discover this ancient tomb structure.
However, after a moment his joy faded, and a feeling of fear intensified, as he seemed to realize that something was wrong.
The next moment, he rushed out of the coffin, and quickly came to the back of the coffin, and he kept groping at the bottom of the coffin, as if he was looking for something.
Yes, everything in front of him was beyond his comprehension, and the back of the coffin was a stone slab perpendicular to the ground, and there was no gentle downward slope at all.
And the part of the space on the ground that he saw in the coffin that should have existed did not exist.
Drops of sweat the size of beans seeped out of his forehead almost instantly.
"Could this be the legendary ghost hitting the wall?"
At this time, the only thing he could think of was to let the others take a look, and he wanted to know if he was wrong, so he subconsciously looked at the positions of the other four.
However, something even creepith happened to him, and that position, at this time, was empty.
"Ahh
Professor Nie was so frightened that he cried out.
At this moment, he suddenly heard a sound of footsteps behind him, and he hurriedly looked back, it turned out to be Xiao Zhang.
"Alas!"
Professor Nie breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly asked, "You scared me to death, I thought you had disappeared." By the way, what about the three? ”
As he spoke, he took a flashlight with a relaxed expression and shone it behind Xiao Zhang, but he didn't even see a shadow.
The fear struck again, and he hurriedly shone behind him, but he still didn't see the other three young people.
You know, this tomb is extremely empty, except for the coffin next to it, there is nothing else at all, so you can see the whole picture at a glance.
"Aren't they right here!"
That Xiao Zhang suddenly spoke, but his expression at this time was very weird, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, with a half-smiling expression, and the flashlight in his hand was hanging with his right hand like that, and he could only shine a point of light on the ground.
"Xiao Zhang! Stop it. ”
Professor Nie was a little angry, he was the leader of this archaeological team, and it was rude to tease the leader, let alone be in such an environment now.
"I didn't make a fuss! Aren't they right next to me? ”
Xiao Zhang's smile was still stiff on his face, he raised his hand slightly, grabbed it in the air, and then stretched it forward as if he was holding something in his hand, and said, "Look, isn't this his hand?" Can't you see it? ”
Looking at Xiao Zhang's performance, Professor Nie's hair stood on end, and after hesitating for a long time, he leaned on the bottom of the coffin and asked tremblingly, "You are not Xiao Zhang, who are you?" If you think I can see, why do you tell me that it's a ...... What about hands? ”
As soon as his words fell, the flashlight in his hand suddenly dimmed, and he could no longer see the other party's face, he could only hear the familiar and terrifying "gurgling" sound......
