readx;
This is a man covered in thick black armor, lying motionless on the stone platform, and the strange thing is that this person's body is also locked with several thick chains, connected to the entire stone platform, from the head and neck to the ankles, there are a total of five chains, all of which are almost as thick as a child's arm.

I was amazed and moved the flashlight to see the man's face, but the black helmet covered the entire face, and the man's face was completely visible.
I turned around and called them, "Come and see, what's going on, there's a locked man up there." ”
When the two of them heard this, they immediately walked up, and when they looked at it, they couldn't help but show a surprised look, and Ansari changed color slightly: "What a ruthless method, not only using this method to guard the altar, but also locking him firmly with heavy armor chains, who is this person?" ”
"Heavy armor chains? You mean that this armor is also meant to lock this man? I opened my mouth to ask, and Lu Haikong said: "Yes, this heavy armor is estimated to weigh hundreds of catties, and such heavy armor is worn on the body purely to firmly suppress this person, plus those few chains, he can't run away at all." ”
I thought about it in my mind, if I pressed a few hundred pounds of something on my body, then I would definitely not be able to move, especially with a few thick chains, but who is this person, and why do you want to control him like this? Why don't you just kill him, wouldn't that be more painful?
"So, this person should have been alive when he was locked up?" I asked again, but this time Ansari shook his head and replied, "Not necessarily, if it is to prevent the living from escaping, it has to be pressed with hundreds of pounds of heavy armor, and it has to be chained, and so many people have to be guarded, then what kind of person must be this to have such terrible power?" ”
I exclaimed, "Isn't it terrible for this man to live, but terrible to die?" Who is this person, could it be the invincible champion Hou, Huo Quai, who is regarded as a demon by the Huns? ”
The three of us glanced at each other at the same time, and no one spoke, indeed, in this kind of place, the powerful person who can make me think of the first thing I can think of, can be so guarded against by the Huns, it is estimated that only Huo Qu is sick.
Lu Haikong's face also changed slightly, waved his hand, motioned for us to go down, and then pulled us out of a distance before looking at me and saying, "Do you really think this will be Huo Qu's disease?" ”
I don't understand why he reacted this way, so after thinking about it, he said: "According to the historical records, Huo Quzhi died at the age of 23, and his life and posthumous events are recorded very clearly, but the only thing that does not indicate the cause of Huo Qu's death, only summarizes it with a simple sentence of illness and death, and in the past dynasties, there is only speculation about the cause of Huo Qu's death, and there is no implementation of the statement, so could he be framed by someone and pretended to be dead, but in fact he was kidnapped to this northern desert?" ”
After I finished speaking, Ansari frowned and said: "From Chang'an, the capital of the Han Dynasty at that time, to the Saibei Desert, thousands of miles away, it seems unreasonable to kidnap a great general who is the great Sima of the dynasty and is known as the god of war to the desolate mountain of Saibei, who can have such ability?" ”
I said: "That's not necessarily, if someone really plots against him, they can drug him, and after knocking him out, bring him here, isn't the martial saint Guan Yu also defeated and killed, no matter how bad Huo Qu's illness is, isn't it also a person?" ”
"But why did the Huns bring him here and use this altar to lock him up in such a big formation? Could he still be used by the Huns? ”
"It's very possible, but our guesses are useless now, this altar is very weird, whether it is Huo Quai's disease or not, it doesn't matter, I pulled you down just now, but also to avoid accidents, after all, the purpose of our trip is to investigate the disappearance of gold, and other things can not be touched."
Lu Haikong said in a deep voice, and then waved his hand to signal us to leave here, but I was puzzled, frowned, and said: "Why do you want to leave, maybe this altar is related to the disappearance of gold, if you don't investigate, you missed the clue, wouldn't it be a pity?" ”
Lu Haikong seemed to hesitate for a moment, but shook his head and said: "No, before you have a certain certainty, you can't act rashly, this place is too weird, let's explore other places first, don't forget, there are golden guards all around here, if they are resurrected once they are alarmed, then we have great ability, and we have to explain here today." ”
I knew that he had a point, and that I was about to get up and walk down the altar together, but at that moment, I suddenly heard a strange sound from the stone platform behind me.
The sound was like someone pulling the iron chains that had not been touched for thousands of years, and the creaking sound was particularly harsh on this silent altar, and the three of us looked at each other, and at the same time showed surprise in our eyes, and at the same time looked back, we saw that the chains tied to the stone platform were slowly and continuously tightened, and even strangled into the stone platform, making a creepy sound.
"Let's go!" Lu Haikong let out a low shout, but we had just run to the steps of the altar and were about to go down, when we suddenly heard a rattle behind us, and I couldn't help but tremble, and subconsciously looked back, and saw that the "person" wearing thick black armor had broken the first chain and sat up from the stone platform.
I was taken aback, the whole person was stunned, Lu Haikong and the two were also quite surprised, we turned around and were about to run down, but the golden guards on both sides of the altar steps had already raised their scimitars in their hands and set them up on the passage of the steps, forming a barrier!
I whispered that it was not good, these golden guards actually woke up too, but we were very careful just now, and definitely did not let the light shine on them, looking at this posture, is it to stop us from going down?
But Lu Haikong turned his eyes and said in a low voice: "It's okay, it's not for us, it's mostly to stop the 'person' behind."
He said and pointed to the man on the stone platform, and at that moment the man suddenly let out a dull roar, raised his hands, and with a rattle, the second chain was broken!
My heart trembled again, this scene was simply terrifying, I couldn't help but have an urge to escape, Lu Haikong stretched out his hand and made a silent movement, signaling us not to make a sound, and then bent down and tiptoed from the gap in the scimitars of those golden guards to the altar.
I never expected that Lu Haikong would actually do this kind of escape, but his courage is really big, and it actually takes a lot of courage for me to walk under those scimitars, because as soon as the scimitars fall, they will be killed immediately.
But now there is no other way, I am still hesitating, Ansari glanced at me, nodded to me, and followed Lu Haikong down, this time the three people I became broken, just at the same time, there was a rattle behind me, and the third chain around the waist of the "person" was also broken!
I shuddered, bent down and ran down, at least these golden guards can be seen and touched, but the demon-like guy behind him, constantly breaking the chains, this is too much psychological pressure.
We didn't dare to run too fast, so we walked cautiously, and just halfway through, there was the sound of chains breaking from above the altar.
My heart sank, the chain as thick as a child's arm, this man actually broke four casually, and then he only needed to break one more, and he was about to get out of trouble!
But why is this happening? Was it because we had just stopped at the altar that he woke up? Or is this man already cursed with some evil to guard this place and kill any intruder unconditionally?
Thinking in my heart, I had already stepped on the ground under my feet, and finally got out of the formation with the scimitar above my head, and I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and I followed Lu Haikong and continued to run forward.
I know that we are not completely out of danger yet.
Looking at the golden guards around them, they all turned slightly sideways, their hands on the scimitar at their waists, and they all seemed to be resurrected, but they seemed to be blind to our escape, and all their attention seemed to be on the altar.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, we hurriedly accelerated to escape, but as soon as we rushed out of the altar twenty or thirty meters away, we suddenly heard an earth-shattering roar from the altar, and then, the last chain was broken!
