Chapter 258: The Secret Door
"Huang Tian, fat man, where did you two die? Hurry up and come out to escort you, I'm scared! ”
I shouted a few times, but only my echo echoed in the entire tomb, and no one answered me at all, so I was really panicked, this underground palace is so big, there are no less than a hundred houses alone, and I am not familiar with it in the ancient tomb, how can I find them?
After waiting for a while, I didn't wait for the fat man and Huang Tian, and even the blind man and his land were gone, but I waited for an uninvited guest.
People are afraid in the dark, especially if there is no one to talk to, I smoked first, but my mouth was bitter from smoking, so I took out a bottle of water to moisten my throat, and I stopped screaming after just two calls, because in this suppressed environment, my cry is not only heard by fat people and Huang Tian, I am afraid that those dirty things can also be heard.
I touched the little gossip hanging around my neck, this was given to me by my father, saying that it can ward off evil spirits, I don't know what this thing has in common with the little black stone that Lao Wu gave me, but at this time I can only pray that this little gadget can really ward off evil spirits, otherwise if something dirty comes, I'm afraid I won't be enough to see it alone.
A large part of the reason why I had three months of high-intensity intensive training at the headquarters was because in the ghost hunting industry, physical strength is also very important.
After waiting for about half an hour, my mind was constantly thinking about whether there would be something like the ghost hand vine recorded in the tomb robbery notes in such a dark environment. The more I thought about it, the more scared I became.
Just when I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard a squirming sound, which scared me enough, I was suspicious myself, and suddenly there was an abnormal sound, and I couldn't stand it on anyone, so I hurriedly shone the flashlight in the direction where the sound came, and there was a crack about ten centimeters wide in the wall of the tomb wall. Out of the crack, a black snake with a cockscomb on its head was trying to get in, and it was the kind of soul-hooking and strange crested ink scale snake that I picked up when I was at the water's edge that could emit girlish laughter.
At this moment, my heart suddenly cooled to my asshole, I have deeply understood the toxicity of this thing, even the umbrella surface of the alloy vajra umbrella can corrode, if you bite me, even if I have a special physique, I will be reported by the king of Hades.
I know that there is really a netherworld in this world, and Lao Tzu has not lived enough, so he must not hang here, thinking of this. I don't care about anything else, I just raised the submachine gun in my hand and hit it, Lao Tzu doesn't care if this is a rare protected animal, first of all, Lao Tzu has to protect his own life, even if there is such a snake in this world, Lao Tzu has to kill it first.
The snake seemed to be stuck in the crack of the wall, unable to advance or retreat, and directly made me blindly strafe and beat my body into a sieve, and after squirming for a while, it died and stood up.
But I didn't dare walk over and look at it. In the past, I often saw in the report that some chefs cut off the head of a poisonous snake, and the head could jump up and bite the chef to death, the vitality of the snake is extremely tenacious, I can't be fooled by this.
Just thinking about it. The dead snake's body began to move again, and I was glad I hadn't stepped forward, otherwise I would have been bitten by now.
Waited a while. I heard only a soft pop, and I quickly looked at the snake, only to find a bloody hole in the snake's back. Followed by a pointed head out of it, before and after less than half a minute, this pointed head revealed its true face, it turned out to be a small mountain mouse, probably the size of our usual mouse, covered in blood, and I couldn't see the original color.
I was startled, and quickly raised my hand to shoot, but I didn't expect two clicks, my gun was actually out of bullets, and I brought a lot of bullets when I came, but after all, we still have a lot of luggage to carry, and it is impossible to carry too many bullets, and now my gun is actually out of bullets.
I cursed secretly, this folding submachine gun is only more than 30 centimeters long when deployed, and it is better to use a burning stick without bullets.
One threw away the gun in his hand, copied the King Kong umbrella, and said in his heart that the fat man and Huang Tian didn't know where to run, no matter what, Lao Tzu couldn't let you run away alive, otherwise once those rats were lured over, I am afraid that Lao Tzu would have to return to his place today.
Strode over, picked up the vajra umbrella and threw it at the mountain rat, because the vajra umbrella was actually quite heavy, and when it was closed, it was like carrying a mace.
I don't know if it's the mountain rat that the black snake has a long lack of oxygen in its stomach or what, anyway, the reaction is a little sluggish, different from the average mountain rat, which directly made me smash all at once, blood splashed, and a few drops were splashed on my clothes.
I was secretly rejoicing when I suddenly heard a squeaky sound, not only many, but also from all directions, followed by a lot of red dots around it, it was actually a mountain mouse, I really don't know how they got in, we didn't know at first.
When these mountain rats saw me and saw the little mountain mouse stoned to death, they suddenly screamed and rushed towards me like a tidal wave, and they scared me stupid.
I take the test, what is the rhythm of this? Could it be that the one I stoned to death was their leader? Why did you persuade me to rush to my side?
I didn't think much about it, so I ran to the empty tomb when I came, and there was a stone door there to block these things in the tomb, otherwise it would be difficult for Lao Tzu not to die today.
People often can fully burst out their potential at the most critical time, and my speed at this moment definitely surpassed Liu Xiang, and after running back, I closed the stone door with all my might, but even if I closed it fast, there were more than a dozen mountain rats as big as rabbits running in.
A dozen mountain rats can still deal with it, I stretched out the King Kong umbrella, spun and smashed at those mountain rats that pounced, those mountain rats are big, but the speed is not so fast, plus my King Kong umbrella is extremely sharp, I actually let me smash several to death, and the rest of the opponent is not the opponent actually ran along the butcher knife when we came in.
I didn't dare to chase after me, because the power of the miner's lamp above my head was running out, and at this time, I had to calm myself down and not mess around.
After a little rest, the door of my future tense was closed, lest the rats come in from here and think about themselves in this empty position.
If what Huang Tian said is true. Then there is actually no magic ancestral weapon in this tomb, I secretly complained to Liang Fatzi, why toss us this time if you have nothing to do, although the desireless is powerful, but if you really hit the gong and drum in front of you, he may not be able to take much advantage, as long as he doesn't let him get these ancestral weapons, I believe we can defeat this old monster.
Although the Fangshu ancestral weapon is powerful, it is an old object in the hands of an ignorant person, and it may be worth two dollars when it is sold as an antique. You can't exert that mysterious power, but if you don't place it correctly, you may bring disaster to yourself.
There are a lot of bottles and cans here, and we didn't study them carefully when we came, because they arrived here one step ahead of us, and even if there was anything valuable, they would have been swept away by them, and since they didn't touch these things, it means that they are definitely not valuable goods.
If there is nothing to do, I will study the things here one by one, so that time can pass quickly, otherwise in such an environment. I couldn't even talk to anyone, I could go crazy.
Now I finally understand why the fat man is a chatter, I guess when I used to fight alone, I didn't even have a person to talk to. I put all the words outside to say it.
Originally, I pulled something in my hand to sit down and rest, but I didn't dare to think that the altar of our first Henah was an altar of ashes, not that I was afraid, but there was nothing to fear from the dead. I'm afraid that this person will die unwillingly, and if he is trapped here by some kind of prohibition, he will be happy when I sit on someone's body.
Took a look. The stalls here are big and small, but most of them are not small, some have small mouths and big bellies, like an urn, and I don't know what is inside, but I don't dare to open it, because these altars and jars have so-called seals on them, and God knows what demons and monsters will be sealed inside!
It's like the fairy tale of the fisherman and the devil, when you open the bottle, a devil appears inside, and I don't believe that all devils are so low in intelligence that they can get into the bottle by themselves when they are provoked.
Carefully shine a flashlight, these bottles and cans are actually very ordinary, they are some incomprehensible patterns, maybe there is some special meaning, but this is not something I can know.
The only thing I know about these patterns is the pattern of the sun, which always feels familiar, but I can't remember where I've seen it, and I've definitely seen this pattern.
Sitting on the ground and meditating for a while, suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, isn't there such a pattern on the door of the underground palace under the small temple in the southern coastal city?
The more I think about it, the more sure I think it must be true, it must be so, although the carvings in the two places are far apart, one in the southeast and the other in the northwest, but I can still see that this pattern of the sun is not wrong at all, the difference is only the size.
Will there be any connection between here and there? I shook my head and smiled bitterly, now I Kunzi can't get out here at all, the mountain rats outside are terrible things, unless the fat people they will come, but at the moment I don't even know where they went, if they encounter any danger to hang up, I can only wait for death.
After sitting for a while, I used a flashlight to shine in the puddle in this empty place where there was no water, to see what was inside, because the pit was not deep, although the light of the flashlight was not strong, but it could still shine to the end, I picked up a backpack on the ground and took out a spare flashlight from it, which was the oldest first-generation flashlight, which was filled with dry batteries.
In fact, in the career of tomb robbing, this kind of flashlight is a must-have thing, dry batteries can continue to maintain brightness, unlike the current miner's lamp, must be charged, I carry two mobile power supplies, but the electricity of the miner's lamp is really quite power-consuming, these two power banks really don't know how long they can last.
After pulling out my flashlight, I turned it on and looked at what was under the pool.
It was only when I took a look at the photos that I realized that the pool was about a foot deeper than when we first saw it, which was absolutely abnormal, and the depth of one foot was obvious to everyone.
What's in it? Is it a mechanism? Countless question marks suddenly appeared in my mind, how could a dry pool of water fall so much?
Curious, I lay on the edge of the pit and poked the bottom of the pit with a vajra umbrella, and found that it was not any soft mud but a stone that was not likely to sink by itself in this case.
I couldn't help but sigh that the technology of the ancients was really not covered, and such a huge project could still move without any power, which has passed for more than 2,000 years, and it has not yet failed.
It is said that no building can withstand an earthquake of magnitude seven or eight, but it is unbelievable that this 2,000-year-old underground ancient building can withstand three such strong earthquakes.
The flashlight shone along the four walls, and suddenly I noticed that there was a gap in the wall in an inconspicuous place, like a small stone door, and there was still some secret here, so I walked over and stroked the gap in the wall with my hand, forcing myself to calm down.
If this is really a door, where does it lead? In front of this is the main burial chamber, what kind of treasure is not placed in the main burial chamber but in such a secret place?
I knocked on this stone door with a vajra umbrella, and sure enough, there was a hollow sound, which indicated that there must be a space behind this door, at least more than ten square meters.
But this door is only exposed a foot, and there must be one underneath, otherwise it is impossible for a person to climb in, right?
At this time, I suddenly felt a movement under my feet, and the bottom of the whole pit slowly sank down again, I was happy in my heart, I didn't expect the real mechanism to be here, even a master like the fat man was hidden, I didn't expect to be discovered.
I said in my heart, fat man, they went to chase the wild man and didn't know where to go, if they came back to the mountain rats outside, I am afraid it would be difficult for them to defeat those countless mountain rats, and time is running out, in case they come back to the bottom of the pit and come up again, wouldn't it be useless?
Thinking of this, I decided to take matters into my own hands, cracking the mechanism on this stone door and going inside to see what was inside. (To be continued......)
