Chapter 102: The Bronze Coffin (Updating the Crown of Twilight Nuanyang)
This mute man behaved in a different way, and I suddenly saw him coming, and I couldn't help but be vigilant. The mute approached step by step, I thought he was going to play some bad idea, but who knew that he passed me and walked not far behind me, where the half of the body of the skinless corpse was placed.
I chuckled in my heart and said, "No, this dumb is too heavy?" Do you want to eat this thousand-year-old corpse?
Immediately afterwards, I reacted that it was impossible, but whenever it is a corpse, there is corpse poison in the flesh and bones, not to mention this old corpse, I am afraid that it is even more poisonous, eating its meat, not to mention how disgusting, I am afraid that I will be killed on the spot after eating, the dumb man is not such a stupid person, what does he want to do?
I was curious, so I staggered up and walked over, but I saw the dumb man kneeling on the ground, his ears pressed to the ground, as if listening to something, although his expression was still indifferent, but a gleam gradually rose in his dark eyes. As soon as my heart moved, I immediately learned to be dumb and my ears were close to the ground, I didn't feel anything at first, but after listening to it for a long time, I faintly felt a hint of roar, the sound was extremely weak, and it was really difficult to find if I was not careful.
How can there be sound underground? I listened to it for a long time, and gradually realized that the sound was very similar to the sound of water, could it be that under our feet, it was an underground river? Just thinking about it, the dumb man's expression suddenly froze, and his mouth hissed, and he said, "I see." "Seems to understand something.
Before I could ask, I heard a series of clicking sounds in my ears, as if there were countless moments of activation, this sound came so suddenly, before I understood what was going on, I felt the ground under my feet tremble slightly, as if the whole ground was suddenly pushed by something?
Earthquake? Of course it can't be, I know in my heart, there must be some mechanism activated, but what puzzles me is that the activation of the mechanism is generally triggered by external forces, and the dumb man and I have done nothing, what is the mechanism that is suddenly activated by itself? I had a faint feeling in my heart, and at that moment, the mute said, "It's already begun." ”
He suddenly stared at the corner of the wall, I didn't know what he was looking at, I followed my gaze, turned up the light to the maximum, and suddenly found that the ground we were on was sinking! The walls of the burial chamber did not move, except that the ground began to sink, and the crevices at the junctions began to gush out of the water, and I finally understood why the whole circular tomb was so damp, and that every once in a while, it would sink into the water.
I can't figure it out, what's the purpose of doing this? It is not an easy task to create such a mechanism, is there any mystery in it?
The ground was still sinking, and more and more water was pouring in, and Tofu was stimulated to wake up, and when he saw the scene of the water filling the golden mountain, he was shocked and said, "What's the matter?" Is this burial chamber still leaking? ”
In fact, the most important thing is not water, several of us are thirsty, if there is urine can be drunk, at this moment suddenly a puddle of water, where is still holding on, nothing can be cared about, bury the head and drink, fill yourself full, this is how to feel alive. At this time, the water in the tomb and the tomb passage were already more than one meter high, but because the ground of the tomb was sinking, the speed of the water could not keep up with the speed of sinking, so the whole space became larger.
I immediately understood what was going on.
The real mechanism of this tomb is actually at the bottom, and after the dumb man and I were wrapped in human skin, we sank all the way, the mechanism opened, and naturally fell on the tomb, and when the tomb was closed, the previous path naturally disappeared. The whole tomb is supposed to run automatically, so when the time is up, it opens automatically.
I told the two of them about my analysis, and Tofu said happily: "So we can go out?" ”
I nodded and said, "As expected, when the mechanism of the tomb is fully opened, we will be able to swim out along the waterway." "As we spoke, the water was getting higher and higher, but the walls were still dry due to the subsidence of the tomb floor, which is why we hadn't been able to find the mechanism before.
In an instant, the water had become very deep, and we estimated that it was about the same, so we decided to seize the opportunity to escape. People in critical moments, often burst out of amazing potential, before I thought it was difficult to walk, at this time about the hope of escape, and replenished the water source, so the spirit is greatly boosted, the strength is also restored, the dumb look is also energetic, only tofu is more tricky.
The mute also had half a rope behind him, and he threw it to the tofu and said, "Tie it." In an instant, the tofu was bolted, and I and the dumb man tied a rope and dragged it away, and when we were ready, the three of us took a breath together, dived into the deepest part of the water, and swam forward in a random direction. In this case, you can get out no matter how you swim, but the direction of the exit may be different, but this has nothing to do with us, after all, we can't locate it underwater.
Thinking about it carefully, when Xu Fu was buried, like all the monks, he had a heart of corpse dismemberment and ascension, but who knew that something went wrong in the middle, the true god did not go out of the body, but the body came out of the skin, becoming a thousand-year-old corpse with a little wisdom, trapped in the underground palace.
There is also a circular tomb road above our heads, presumably it is also a kind of mechanism, the white bones inside, the eight achievements are the people who were harmed by the thousand-year-old corpse, as for the identity of those people, you don't have to think about it, the eight achievements are these people who come to the island to explore, this underground river is bound to connect to the outside world, once someone goes into the water, bad luck, when the mechanism is opened, the water flow is chaotic, it is easy to be sucked into this circular tomb, so that the old corpse is used as a snack.
Fortunately, the flashlight was waterproof, and the mute and I had tofu tied to our waists, holding the flashlight in our hands, and swam forward with a breath, and after a while, we saw half of the stairs suddenly exposed in front of us. At this time, the breath was almost choked, and the mute and I looked at each other in the water, and the two of us immediately headed towards the stone steps in the water, and went upstream along the stone steps, and in a short time they came out of the water.
Tofu wiped the water on his face, and he was curious, so he didn't forget to look around at this time, and after reading it, he said, "What kind of place is this?" Hey, there's a pit there. ”
At the top of the stone steps, there was a platform, surrounded by groundwater, and we could not see the shape, and we were sitting on the edge of the platform, and in the center of the platform, there was a rectangular depression.
I was curious, and when Tofu said this, when he shook the water droplets on his head and looked into the depression, he couldn't help but be shocked, and said, "It's a bronze coffin!" ”
The so-called coffin, refers to the protective layer set on the outside of the coffin, the common stone coffin, the wooden coffin, in the high-level some, there are jade coffin, gold coffin, bronze coffin, and the bronze coffin is mostly seen before the pre-Qin period, non-marquis will not be available. I saw that there was a bronze coffin in front of me, and the specifications were very high, and my heart moved, and I immediately understood.
It seems that the mahogany lacquered Fusang golden black coffin was originally set in this coffin, but for some reason, it would float out with the water. I saw that this coffin is about eight meters long, about six meters wide, about four meters deep, and a rectangular pit is exposed in the middle, which is the place where the coffin is placed, and there are many lattices of different specifications around it, the lattice is full of water, and there are exquisite antiquities soaked in the water, which is the most precious burial goods of the tomb owner buried with the coffin!
Under the illumination of the light, the dark grid sunk in the water, each grid is placed with exquisite utensils, the first thing that catches the eye is two white and transparent jade, after two thousand years, it is still transparent and flawless, and there is a sword buried in the coffin, this sword I have seen in the previous mural, it is the sword used by Xu Fu when killing the beast, the sword body is clumsy, because it has been soaked in the water for too long, it has been rotten for a long time.
The next thing that attracted our attention was a wooden box placed on the top of the coffin, which was square and square, and it was also a bronze box.
I was happy and said: "There is nowhere to find the iron shoes, it takes no effort to get it, I opened the red lacquer Fusang golden black coffin before, it was empty, I thought that the ** seal was just a legend, but I didn't expect it to be placed in the coffin." "This life and death, of course, can't come in vain, I quickly took the box out of the water, glanced at the dumb man, but saw that he had no intention of fighting.
Strange, if this kid is doing things for the Japanese, how can he allow me to get the ** seal?
Tofu was still dead and alive before, but now he looked at the baby, his eyes lit up, and he said to me, "Don't just take a box, take more." As he spoke, he swept around the coffin, and he had good eyesight, and he didn't touch the rotten things, and chose a few things that were better preserved.
These are all pre-Qin antiquities, just put one out, they are all depth charges, and the tofu is waiting to be taken more, so I hurriedly stopped him and said, "Don't take the big one, pick the small one, only take two." ”
Tofu didn't know why, and said, "Two pieces? If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't take it, I was going to take it all, Xu Fu was cut in half by us, and he wouldn't come to us to settle accounts, and he wouldn't take it for nothing. ”
I said: "You know a fart, these are national treasures, with our current connections, we can't sell them out, how much ability we have, how big a deal we do, it's too early to dump these artifacts now, and wait for the strength to accumulate in the future, the road is wide, and there is an opportunity, now pour it out, if you don't make a good scene, it will lead to death." ”
The dumb man listened beside him, nodded slightly, and said, "You're not too stupid. ”
When Tofu heard this, he picked two small objects, one is a delicately shaped cave wandering fairy, and the other is a blood-red figurine hanging jade, small and light, exquisite shape, rare to see. After putting away the things, we looked around, there was no other way to go, and the three of us were about to continue into the water, when we saw a huge black shadow suddenly appear under the water, as if some big fish was about to come up.
Tofu was startled and said, "Look at this shadow, it seems to be a ......" He didn't say it, but my heart sank, because the shadow was vaguely rectangular, could it be the Fusang Jinwu human skin coffin?
In a moment, the thing surfaced, not a coffin and something.
PS: The update is complete, thank you for the support of Dusk Nuanyang, haha, originally she meant to let me rest, I don't need to add more, but it seems that everyone is staring at the crown and waiting for the change, and I can't be lazy~~~~
