Chapter 272: Stone Bird
He didn't dare to move the mechanism, he felt that this should not be so simple, if it was really a custom, it was a burial cave for ordinary people, then there should be no mechanism, but there was a mechanism here, this tomb was comparable to the tomb of a prince, so he didn't dare to move the mechanism, he was afraid that something unexpected would happen when he moved the mechanism, the statue of the lion and tiger beast on the stone gate looked so fierce, which made him even more estimated, the outside is a burial cave, but this is not a burial cave.
The corpses and bats outside must have been artificially raised, in order to prevent people from coming in to rob the tombs, which makes people wonder if there is something terrible inside.
Just as he was thinking, the fat man suddenly patted him on the shoulder, and he was startled, and almost turned around and punched him.
The fat man said, "Why are you stunned? Is something going on? “
Long Mo said, "Yes, don't you think it's very strange here? This is the burial cave of the poor, how can there be a mechanism, I think we should be careful, if it is really so simple, why didn't Zhao Kailai come in by themselves? There must be some difficulty, they can't get in, and they are forcing us in this way. ”
The fat man nodded, expressing his agreement with Long Mo's opinion, Long Mo looked around with a flashlight, put his hand on the mechanism and pressed it hard, and with a click, the stone door slowly opened.
They didn't go inside, but shone a flashlight inside, and the space inside was much larger than they had imagined, and the tomb was comparable to the imperial tomb.
Finding that there was no situation, Long Mo walked in first, Nam Zhengji walked in the middle, and the fat man walked last, and the three of them all walked cautiously, they only had a flashlight, so a lot of vision was obstructed.
The inside of the cave is a very wide place, just come in and see a lot more than a football field, it's like a palace, the middle should be a red carpet, because it has been too long, there is no red carpet, there are a lot of lampposts on both sides of the red carpet, these lampposts are made of stone, different shapes, some are in the shape of a snake, some are in the shape of a tiger, and there are lampposts in the shape of various animals.
Each lamppost is not very high, about two meters high, and some are very short, only about one meter and five, these lampposts of different shapes have a stone basin on it, this kind of thing is called the lamp slave, all of them are carved with large stones at one time, and the lamp slave in some tombs is made of copper.
The flashlight shone on the outside of the lamp slave, and a face was like an eye, and Long Mo almost threw the flashlight away without being frightened.
"That's ......"
"Dry corpse, boy, shine the flashlight over, how can there be a dry corpse here?"
Long Mo shone the flashlight at the place where he saw the face just now, and the face reappeared, only to see that the face was red, as if it had been dried by the air, and the surface of the skin was still shining with oil, and there was basically no flesh on the face, but only a layer of skin wrapped around the skull, and the eyes were deeply sunken and very terrifying.
Long Mo shook the flashlight around again, and the empty venue was actually neatly filled with dried corpses, all of them sitting in the same posture.
"How can there be so many dried corpses here? This is like the early dynasty of civil and military officials, damn, there are at least more than 500 dried corpses here, is this the imperial tomb? ”
Nam Jeong-hee couldn't believe what he was seeing, this was the largest tomb he had ever seen, and the previous tomb was so big?
"Maybe this is really the Imperial Mausoleum, except for the sitting corpses, there are stone soldiers standing all around, and the weapons in their hands are also stone." Long Mo shone his flashlight into the distance and said.
The fat man said, "We have lit all the brazier lamps on the lamp slaves, and we can't see anything in the dark." ”
Long Mo nodded, took out a lighter from his body, and lit the nearest lamp slave, the lamp oil in the stone basin didn't know when, the lamp oil had already been waxed, and the fire was not as big as a soybean when it was just lit, and the lamp oil melted when the temperature rose.
The fat man and Nan Zhengji each lit a lamp slave, but in the middle of the empty field, the brightness of the three lamp slaves was not enough at all, and it was not clear from a distance.
Next, they lit more than a dozen dwarf lamp slaves, everything here barely looked at a rough idea, from where they were, the dried corpses here are all uniform red, some of the dried corpses don't know why their heads were gnawed by something very terrifying, and their eyes were gnawed into a black hole, as if they were eaten by rats.
Nan Zhengji shrugged his nose and said, "Have you smelled anything, this smell has made the Wan Gu Mother in my body commotion, is there a hundred worm incense in this lamp oil?" ”
Only then did Long Mo and the fat man notice that this fragrance was permeating the air, and I didn't know how to say it, it was like the fragrance of red sandalwood, but it was a bit like the fragrance of fennel.
Long Mo suddenly felt a very bad premonition, although he hadn't noticed anything yet, but he felt that the hairs on his back couldn't help but stand up, and there seemed to be something crawling on his back, tickling.
He used his hand to buckle the itchy place on his back, and under the button, he suddenly felt that something furry had fallen on his hand, and with a little force, he pinched the thing that fell in his hand to death, and the sticky liquid stuck to his hand.
When he took his hand to his eyes, he was startled, there was something crawling on the itchy place on his back, although the thing in his hand was pinched by him, but the shape of this thing was like a caterpillar, but the body was deflated, and there were black and white tentacles on the head.
"What is this, why is it so disgusting?"
Just when Long Mo just finished saying this, a ball of such things fell on the fat man's head at once, and these caterpillar-like things suddenly became scattered birds and beasts, crawling all over the fat man's body, burrowing into the fat man's clothes, and some directly crawled into the fat man's nose and ears.
The fat man is also covered in hair, his hands are constantly beating on his body, jumping around to shake off the insects on his body, and his hands are pulled out of the ears and pulling out a worm that has been drilled into the ears, this insect has a lot of feet like a centipede, but the body is very hairy and terrible.
"Oh my God, what are these things?"
As he was talking, there were a lot of insects that seemed to have fallen down from above, falling one by one, and crawling away immediately after falling to the ground, and after a while, the ground was crawling with such insects.
When the insects fell, they crawled on the body, and the three of them kept beating and slapping their bodies, so as not to get into their noses and ears.
"It's a stone bird, a centipede-like bug that likes to burrow into cracks, especially into animal brains, and it's poisonous."
