Chapter 21: Xianwei
In the world underneath that has been sealed for more than 2,000 years, there is a layer of obscurity floating in the air, which makes people's vision blurred. Everyone gathered in one place, and several searchlights illuminated this small space clearly. The dark stone wall is still a continuous relief, where there is the shadow of a child.
Everyone obviously thought of the girl's corpse just now, and Tofu moved closer to me, looking around with some fear. At this time, Tofu suddenly grabbed my arm, his fingers pinched tightly, I looked sideways, but saw him staring at the position in front of the left, his eyes were straight, and he looked frightened.
I chuckled inwardly, and followed his gaze, only to see that there was only a stone wall carved in relief, with a picture of famine carved on it, and the sky was covered with lightning, as if it was going through some kind of natural disaster. I had only skimmed the reliefs cursorely, but when I looked closely, I felt my scalp tingle and my back tightened, because of the humanoid reliefs. There was also a black child's figure mixed in.
Since the surrounding stone wall is also black, it almost blends in with the entire relief and stone wall, and it is difficult to spot at a glance. The black shadow on the stone wall seemed to sense the gaze of me and Tofu, and then slowly turned his head, revealing a white and blue face, with small pigtails, and a girl. As soon as the little white face turned around, the rest of the people found out, and they heard Ouyang Xuan exclaim, while Zhong Gong slammed a shot at the girl on the stone wall.
The shot seemed to break some illusion, and the girl disappeared in an instant. Everyone ran to the stone wall, where else could they see any girls. Tofu smashed his mouth and said, "I saw that the girl still had something hanging around her neck, and the ...... that was hanging from the corpse just now Same. β
Zhong Gong said: "It seems that you cremated, and instead of sending her to the Western Elysium, you got her ghost out." Speaking of ghosts, Tofu couldn't help but tug at the corpse fairy's braids, lowered his face, and said angrily: "It's really useless to raise you for nothing." β
I thought about it and found a phenomenon, that is, the corpse fairy was born, and he had eaten heavenly soldiers, poisonous Gu, poisonous snakes and devil insects, but he really had never eaten soft zongzi, according to Tofu, when it met the ghost market, although it was attracted by the ghost market, it did not appear to be devoured.
Could it be that this corpse fairy can only deal with hard zongzi and is helpless against soft zongzi?
I saw that the corpse fairy was dragged by tofu with braids, and had no power to resist, and I also felt that it was to blame, so I asked tofu not to toss it, and now the corpse fairy has just given birth to consciousness, and has not yet fully cultivated, and is uncertain in many aspects, rather than relying on it, it is better to rely on yourself more safely.
Everyone was back to back, observing the surroundings to prevent the small rice dumplings from coming out again. At this time, I heard Zhang Wen say: "There is no way out, and it looks like another dead place." In charge, let's go out first, so as not to cause accidents. As he said this, I looked at the place where the girl had disappeared and suddenly noticed something strange.
When Zhong Gong fired a shot at the girl, I was very confident in Zhong Gong's marksmanship, and the distance was not far, so it was impossible to miss. The girl was a soft dumpling, no body, after the bullet passed, it was supposed to hit the stone wall, and it should have left bullet marks, but now I found that the stone wall where the girl was lying before did not even leave a white spot.
What's going on?
Could it be that the girl was not a soft dumpling, but a hard dumpling, so the bullet hit her?
I couldn't help but lower my head and look around the ground, and soon found the bullet that Zhong Gong had shot, which had bounced off the right side and rolled down the corner. I picked up the bullet, handed it to the crowd, pointed to the black stone wall, and raised my question.
Now that the bullet has been found, it means that the girl is indeed a soft dumpling, and the bullet did not hit her, in this case, there will definitely be bullet marks on the stone wall, but now there are no bullet marks, which can only indicate one problem, that is, these black stones are very hard. To prove this idea, I pulled out my dagger and stabbed it at a point in the stone wall. I have a lot of strength, plus these daggers are military goods, extremely hard, very sharp, ordinary stones, these few blows, will definitely leave a mark.
I thrust it a few times, and then I looked closely, and there was still no trace on the stone wall.
Tofu was surprised: "What kind of stone is this, why is it so hard?" β
The rest of the people immediately understood, and then listened to Zhen Rui say: "The stone in the rest of the rooms is different from here, the stone in this place is relatively special, very hard, there must be some purpose." β
Zhang Wen pondered: "What is the purpose of using such a hard stone?" β
Tofu clapped his hands and said, "Needless to say, I must be worried about the destruction of the stone wall." This thing is harder than iron, you think, in those days, there was no explosives or anything like that, and if such a hard stone was used for defense, wouldn't it be invincible? β
Zhang Wen nodded and said, "I think it's the same, in this room, eighty percent of them have been placed with very important things." β
Ouyang Xuan said: "Since these stones are so hard, how did the ancient people cut them? How to carve them? β
This question really stumped us, these exquisite reliefs are extremely delicate, and the stone is very hard, and the bullets do not leave a trace, so how did the people of Yaofang cut it? What important things used to be placed in this stone room?
While thinking about it, Zhen Rui took out an iron pry and smashed it twice on the stone wall with his pry head, and then heard a thumping sound from behind, indicating that the back of the stone wall should be empty. Suddenly, everyone understood, it turned out that behind the stone wall, there was a secret room, and it seemed that these hard stones were eighty percent to prevent anyone from entering the secret room behind.
Zhen Rui narrowed his eyes and said, "There must be a mechanism, it should be around here, find out." Everyone immediately began to grope for the mechanism in this stone room, and I thought of the girl lying on the stone wall before, and I couldn't help but think: There are so many places where she doesn't lie down, but lies on top of the secret room, could it be that the little girl is deliberately guiding us?
In the following process, the girl disappeared completely, and we could no longer see it, and Yao Fang's ancient mechanism was obviously very different from the mechanism technique we knew later, so no matter how hard everyone tried, we didn't find a single clue.
Zhang Wen became anxious and said: "This secret room is so tight, and the things inside must still be preserved, which is of great significance to our operation, no matter what, we have to find a way to get in." β
Tofu came up with an idea and said, "Why don't you try it with explosives and see if you can blow it up." β
When I heard this, I almost vomited blood in anger, kicked him directly, and scolded: "Shut your crow's mouth, we are now under the sand layer of the desert, and these buildings have been under the sand layer for more than 2,000 years, and the ability to resist pressure is already very weak. β
Tofu covered his buttocks and said aggrievedly: "Didn't I come up with an idea, why are you so fierce." Then he looked at the corpse fairy, his eyes moved, and he said to the corpse fairy: "Wood, life is in the world, you have to make a difference, and the one who doesn't do anything is a pig." Shouldn't you contribute? How hard was the ice layer so thick at the beginning, as soon as your old man waved his hand, it exploded with a bang, it was too awesome. Why don't you wave your hand again and stab this stone wall apart? β
Tofu's words are still reliable, and I can't help but look at the corpse fairy, although the orders given to it are not effective, but I hope this time it will work. After Tofu finished speaking, the corpse fairy tilted his head, his long braid hung to the side, and his eyes rolled slightly on his face with a blank expression, as if he was analyzing Tofu's words. Everyone knew the terrifying ability of the corpse fairy, and they couldn't help but hold their breath and wait for its next move.
But after waiting for ten minutes, the corpse fairy always maintained this appearance, Tofu was deflated, shrugged his shoulders, and was about to speak, when suddenly, there was a clicking sound in everyone's ears, and everyone listened for a long time before they found that the sound came from the stone wall.
And the hard stone wall actually began to slowly appear like a spider web, and as the clicking sound became more and more similar, the cracks became bigger and bigger. Everyone was stunned, and at this moment, the corpse fairy suddenly moved, slowly walked to the stone wall, stretched out his hand and pushed gently, and then heard a bang, and the stone wall collapsed.
Tofu's mouth opened wide and he stammered, "ItβHow did it do it?" β
I don't want to mention how shocked I am at this moment, although I heard Lu Su say that a corpse immortal cannot be regarded as a corpse in the strict sense, but a kind of immortal, but I didn't expect that when this immortal really gradually showed its strength, it would make us ordinary people so shocked.
After the stone wall collapsed, a square entrance was revealed, and from our position, the entrance was sloping downward, and it was a black stone staircase, all the way down, and the light could not see the end, and we did not know where it led.
The corpse fairy stood on the side of the entrance, tilted his head, stared at the tofu tightly, and after a moment, seeing that the tofu didn't say anything, he looked at me again, although it had a blank face, but I instantly understood what it meant, as if it was asking for a reward. I thought about it, reminded Tofu, and said, "Didn't you have dichlorvos in your bag?" "In view of the fact that every time he fights, he will be attacked by insects, Tofu brought a bottle of dichlorvos alive and live, saying that it was just in case.
When I reminded him, Tofu immediately slapped his head, flipped out dichlorvos, unscrewed the cap, handed it to the corpse fairy, and said with a dry smile: "Reward." The corpse fairy blinked, looked up and took a breath, and drank only an empty bottle.
Tofu and I glanced at each other, not to mention the complicated energy in my heart, the terrifying Cheng dΓΉ of this corpse immortal had only been predicted by Lu Su and Chen Tiande before, but when its consciousness grew little by little and really showed its strength, a sense of crisis that made people feel terrifying arose.
