Chapter 63: The Golden Mask
Wang Teng picked up a dead wood from the ground and wrapped it around the front end of the climbing rope, skillfully threw the climbing rope to the dead tree and wrapped it tightly, and then tightened the rope, which seemed to be firm and acceptable, and looked back at Ling Feng.
Ling Feng naturally understood what Wang Teng meant, took the mountaineering rope and tried to strengthen it, Chen Erwa was about to speak, Ling Feng had already swept through the pit without saying a word.
Subsequently, Chen Erwa and Wang Teng swept through the pit one after another, and the upright Chen Erwa looked at Wang Teng's eyes with more and more contempt, and it had reached the point of being completely undisguised.
The three of them cautiously followed the passage formed in the mountain all the way forward, although this passage completely seemed to be formed naturally in the mountain, but the three of them dared to be careless, and they were careful all the way.
After a moment of walking, a cave appeared on the left side of the passage in the shade of dense plants, Ling Feng was standing at the door of the cave to take a closer look, but Chen Erwa had already opened the vines at the door and broke in.
Ling Feng was stunned for a moment, but suddenly heard Chen Erwa's heart-rending cry from the cave, he quickly picked up the vines at the entrance of the cave, and flashed into the cave on guard, for fear that something would happen to Chen Erwa.
Chen Erwa squatted on the ground, looking at a corpse lying on the mountain wall, hugging her head and crying, seeing that this corpse was dressed in a hunter's costume, it was Chen Erwa's father, Chen Laogen.
Ling Feng breathed a sigh of relief and took a closer look at the cave. The cave is not big, about ten meters square, there are several dilapidated stone platforms faintly placed in it, it seems to be a place of sacrifice, a sloping narrow passage in the depths of the cave goes all the way up, and the black does not know where it leads. It is estimated that Chen Laogen should have come down from this passage, but he doesn't know why he lost his life here.
After a while, Chen Erwa's sad voice stopped for a while, and she took out an oilcloth bag from her backpack and began to collect Chen Laogen's corpse, Wang Teng was a little impatient, and was about to speak, but was glared at by Ling Feng, and was speechless.
Ling Feng was not a person who was good at words, so he could only stand aside and silently watch Chen Erwa collect his father's corpse, and Wang Teng pouted disapprovingly.
However, the three of them did not explore the cave carefully, since Chen Laogen died here, it is estimated that this cave is probably also full of dangers, especially the dark passage that leads to nowhere, maybe it is even denser with deadly mechanisms.
The three of them continued along the same path.
Suddenly, the eyes of the three of them lit up, and several dappled rays of sunlight actually spilled in through the cracks in the mountain, shining on the colored stones on the ground, forming a passage more than ten meters long, colorful, and scattered. The most exciting thing is that behind this colorful passage there is a small stone chamber, the floor is paved with gorgeous multicolored stones, and on a quaint stone table is a beautiful golden mask - the golden mask that one of the nine great warriors of King Gesar has fallen.
The golden mask has a high nose and deep eyes, a wide mouth and big ears, and prominent cheekbones, which looks extremely exquisite and unusual, but what makes Ling Feng a little strange is that this mask has a typical European shape, which reminds him of the stone carvings he saw in Jiuzhaigou Mountain, and there are several of them with this appearance.
Wang Teng was ecstatic in his heart, and strode forward, but was about to step into the colorful passage when he was grabbed by Ling Feng.
& Look for death! Ling Feng picked up a stone and threw it into the passage, smashing it on a multicolored stone illuminated by a ray of sunlight, only to hear a rapid swishing sound, and countless silver needles like cow hair shot out from the stone walls on both sides, and disappeared into the stone walls on the opposite side.
The silver needle is so thin and dense that it is extremely fast, if it weren't for the faint sound of breaking through the air, it would be impossible for ordinary people to find such an ingenious mechanism, especially since this mechanism is placed in front of the golden mask that falls, even the most cautious person may be blinded by the treasure in front of him and accidentally hit the mechanism.
The person who set up the mechanism is really a master at grasping people's hearts.
Picking up a life, Wang Teng asked curtly: "How do you know that there is a mechanism?" Do you have the ...... here? ”
Wang Teng's heart is not right, and his heart is cold, and he does not forget to sow discord at this time, suspecting that Ling Feng has a mechanism here.
Ling Feng didn't bother to explain, he just picked up a few stones from the ground, threw one in the east and one in the west into the passage, but for some reason, sometimes it would touch the mechanism, causing a rapid whooshing sound, and sometimes it would not trigger the mechanism.
&Do you want to trigger all the mechanisms? I'm afraid it's not realistic, right? Wang Teng was still chattering on the sidelines.
>> Mouth you! Chen Erwa slowly saw Ling Feng's intentions, and angrily interrupted Wang Teng's broken thoughts, and said, "You look carefully, is it sunlight that comes in?" ”
Ling Feng glanced back at Chen Erwa, this guy's observation was very good.
Obviously, the three of them went all the way down in the belly of the mountain, and the terrain did not show any signs of rising at all, even if there was no specific sense of orientation in the mountain, but after calming down, they could roughly judge the location, how could the sun shine through such a deep mountain here? Also, based on a rough estimate of time, it's probably not daylight outside.
People walk in the dark for several hours, do not distinguish things, do not know the direction, at first glance see the sun, there will inevitably be a little lax, coupled with the priceless gold mask in front of the eyes, I am afraid that the vast majority of people will lose their normal heart, lose basic judgment, at this time can adjust the mentality of people so quickly is not very human.
Sure enough, there are many heroes in the recklessness.
