Chapter 31: Opening the Coffin
Chapter 31: The coffin is opened
Zhang Hefang's words undoubtedly reminded us that we had been worried about the monster that appeared in the crack of the door of the stone chamber, but after entering this closed stone chamber, we ignored this problem. From the time we came to this place to the time we entered this stone chamber, we never saw that huge monster, so where did he go?
Zhang Hefang asked Bao Ye this question again, but Bao Ye's reply was the same, and they didn't find any trace of the monster.
For a moment, everyone was very confused. What the hell is going on? Before entering the stone gate, we saw that the monster's eyes were the size of a small lantern, which showed that its size was large enough, but how could he disappear in this underground palace for no reason.
I don't know why, I remembered Zhang Hefang's illusion, and couldn't help but say, "Could that be our hallucination?" ”
Zhang Hefang shook his head firmly and said, "Impossible, to say that it was our illusion, but who is the caster?" Besides, it can't be that the experience of thirty-one years ago was also an illusion, and those people were literally dead. ”
Everyone was very nervous, and hurriedly checked the stone room. Said to be checked, in fact, there is no need for this at all, because the stone room is so big, whether there is a monster in it, we can see it at a glance, but whether it is on our side or on the side of Bao Ye, we can't find any trace of that monster.
In this case, there is a second possibility, that is, this is not the end of the burial pit, there must be some secret passage here, otherwise, the monster will not disappear for no reason.
However, we had been fumbling around the walls for a long time without finding any mechanism or anything like that, and only near the top of the wall near the ceiling we saw a dense circle of wrist-sized black holes, which looked like pores to keep the air circulating, and besides, they were so high that we couldn't touch them.
At this time, Bin Zi said: "Could it be that these coffins themselves are organs?" I've been to many burial chambers before, and I've experienced many times like this stone chamber like a secret room, and I remember one time when the trap was triggered by a coffin. On the one hand, those coffins contain some inconsequential burial personnel, and on the other hand, the bottom of the coffin is connected to the mechanism in the stone chamber, and with a slight movement, the mechanism will be triggered, and the secret passage will be revealed. ”
Zhang Hefang looked at Bin Zi and said, "There is indeed such a possibility. ”
I said, "Anyway, it's already like this now, so let's try it as a dead horse doctor." ”
Bin Zi and Zhang Hefang nodded and said, "That's the only way." ”
So, everyone, including Bu Jin and Xiao Xia, began to try to move those hexagonal coffins. Although I advocated this, I still felt a little frightened when I saw those strange green coffins, and I thought that as soon as I touched those coffins, a hand would suddenly burst out and choke my neck?
I tried to turn and move the coffins in a panic, but luckily what I feared didn't happen. However, what makes me unforgettable is the weight of those coffins, according to Binzi's words, ordinary coffins will not have coffins, but these coffins are still sinking to death. When I went to see the material of these coffins, they were not sarcophagi or bronze coffins, and they felt the same as wooden coffins, but the weight was surprising.
After a while, a few of us were tired and sweaty, which is also good, when we are very tired, we don't have the time to think about things that don't exist and scare ourselves.
But when all the coffins have been moved, there is still no secret door, and the situation we are in has not changed in the slightest. This somewhat discouraged us, Zhang Hefang used the walkie-talkie to contact the people on Bao Ye's side, and Bao Ye also said that they were also at a loss.
Everyone was very tired, so they sat on the floor, ate two compressed biscuits, drank a few sips of water, and continued to think of a way.
Xiao Xia said unceremoniously while eating: "Is there no mechanism at all, I think we should check these coffins first, maybe the magic weapon we are looking for is in these coffins." ”
Speaking of this, I couldn't help asking, "What have you been talking about, seriously, do you know what that magic weapon looks like, are you so sure it's a golden scepter?" ”
Zhang Hefang shook his head and said, "We are not sure if it will be a golden scepter, but one thing is certain, that is, it must be something similar to a walking stick, which we Nanwu people have a consensus on." ”
"Oh?" I said, "Why do you say that?" ”
"Among our Southern Wu, there is such a description of the magic weapons of the ancient Shu Kingdom: 'The magic weapons are hidden in the hands of sinners, and they must be taken by the life of the waiter'." While chewing on the compressed biscuits, Zhang Hefang took out a piece of brown paper from his arms and said: "Moreover, this is a copied picture, in our Southern Wu, it is said that it will be like this when the Wuzong is resurrected. I haven't shown it to you before, and it's because I don't think it's necessary. ”
I took the brown paper, spread it out and looked at it, only to see a man and a woman painted on it, he has the strength of a male body, but his facial features are like a weak woman, the person is wearing a jade plate on his chest, and a mask on his face, even so, the female facial features can still be seen clearly, holding a scepter in his right hand, this scepter looks a little strange, it is not long, if you look at the proportion between the figures, the visual inspection is less than a meter, and because it is a painting, Therefore, it is difficult to tell what material the thing is, but it can only be known that the scepter does not look straight, and the scepter seems to be composed of sections.
I looked at it for a while and said, "Wait, I don't think it's right, the six royal attendants work together to help the Wu Sect resurrect, but there are only three magic weapons in total." ”
Zhang Hefang dotted his finger on the brown paper and said: "You see, this humanoid man and woman, this represents the heavenly imperial attendant and the earth imperial attendant respectively, the jade plaque represents the magic weapon of the eastern imperial attendant, the gold mask represents the magic weapon of the southern imperial attendant, and the scepter in his hand represents the magic weapon of the western imperial attendant." ”
"Yes, but in this way, isn't there a lack of magic weapons for the waiters in the Northern Regions?" I remembered that before coming to Sichuan, Zhang Hefang had contacted Qin Ye to investigate the Red Mountain Civilization in the north after Ryazan's disappearance, and I couldn't help but say: "You sent Qin Ye to the Red Mountain in the north to find the last magic weapon." ”
Unexpectedly, Qin Ye shook his head and said: "It's not that the so-called magic weapons of the waiters in the Northern Regions must be in the north, because in the strict sense, the Guyong Kingdom is not the south, there is also the Guyue Kingdom in the south of the Guyong Kingdom, and the Gushu Kingdom where we are now is not strictly in the west, although the six imperial waiters are nominally divided into southeast, northwest, and north, they are not necessarily in a specific direction." ”
I nodded, understood what Zhang Hefang meant, and said, "I understand, it's like saying that I am a heavenly imperial attendant, but I didn't fall from the sky." So, what did you send Qin Ye to the Red Mountain in the north for? ”
Zhang Hefang stared straight at me and said: "In order to find Fan Jiyun, and to determine where you came from, in fact, among the six imperial attendants, your appearance has always been a mystery, after several analogies of ancient civilizations, I suspect that you should be found by Fan Jiyun in the Red Mountain Civilization." ”
I nodded silently, folded the cowhide, and returned it to Zhang Hefang.
After everyone was full, they didn't dare to rest more, so Zhang Hefang said: "I think what Xiao Xia said also makes sense, although we haven't discovered the secret passage yet, but we must not miss any opportunity, even if it is a little disrespectful, but we still have to do it - open the coffin!" ”
With that, everyone began to prepare to walk towards the coffins placed in the corner, but just as we were about to get up, out of the corner of my eye, I suddenly noticed a figure squatting at the entrance of the stone room. I exclaimed, everyone went to see, and suddenly shuddered, only to see that the figure was naked, the skin was blue-gray, and there were some rotten wounds on the body, everyone didn't know when this thing started squatting there, but when they saw that thing's reaction to see us, they suddenly tilted their heads, and actually grinned.
