Chapter Seventy-Four: Dark Shadow
ο»Ώ
When I think about it, the more I think about it, the more it is possible. The first is the structure of this burial chamber, which is so magnificent, if this is not the main burial chamber, then what would the real main burial chamber become?
Moreover, the hanging corpse guards here are a kind of high-standard burial, Xiaohua said before that these corpses are used to monitor the entire tomb, so when we see these hanging corpses now, it means that this tomb has come to an end.
Although there are many unearthed cultural relics to prove that the ancients were able to make bronzes at a very early age, but at that time the technology was backward, bronze was a very precious thing, and this bronze coffin and this bronze door, I am afraid that even if the national strength is poured out it will take decades or even hundreds of years, then the people lying in the bronze coffin must be noble, is it ...... Is it the Songdara people lying here? Or is it Kurazhije?
Will there be a clue about the ultimate in this coffin?
The shape of the bronze coffin is very peculiar, very different from the ordinary coffin, the corners are rounded, the shape is huge, and the ornamentation on it is obviously poured as a whole, such a process, even today, is a difficult thing.
Why was this coffin hung on it? The structure of this Tianyuan coffin completely subverted my understanding of the ancient tomb.
Then, Xiaohua said: "This coffin can't be opened." β
I was shocked and said, "Could it be that the molten iron is sealed?" Without waiting for Xiaohua to answer, she approached to look at the coffin, and saw a thin slit at the junction. There was no sign of molten iron being watered.
Xiaohua said: "This coffin has a mechanism, and it can only be opened by relying on the mechanism, we have just tried it." β
Organ? I couldn't help but carefully observe the surface of the bronze coffin, the ornamentation on it was clumsy, but they were all very abstract things, I couldn't see the specific meaning, I went around the bronze coffin, from different directions to observe, still can't see the clue.
The meaning of the mechanism is to open the lid of the coffin, so it must be in a place that we can reach, so where will this place be? I can't judge with the naked eye, so I stretched out my hand to touch it, and in an instant, a cold breath came down the coffin, the feeling is difficult to describe, it is only a matter of moments, but when you feel it again, the cold has disappeared without a trace.
A bad premonition rose in my heart, and I vaguely felt that the things lying in this coffin might not be good stubble.
Just when I was groping for the coffin, I suddenly saw a familiar ornament on the side of the coffin, if this ornament was seen by ordinary people, it would inevitably ignore the past, but I recognized it at a glance, it was the shape of a bell, a simple hexagonal bell.
My brain thumped, and I froze, staring at the bell ornament protruding from the bronze coffin. How did it end up here? This bell has appeared in the Qixing Lu Palace, the bronze tree in Qinling, and the ancient building of Zhangjia, what is the significance of it? There is such a big age gap between these places, why do the same hexagonal bells appear? Could it be that this is the birthplace of this bell?
I thought of the strange function of this bell, and I couldn't help but feel palpitations, and I subconsciously listened to it, but I didn't hear any strange sounds, is it a coincidence? The uneasiness in my heart gradually expanded, and I reached out and pressed the pattern of the bell, which was very stable, not like a mechanism, but at this moment, I suddenly noticed that the shape of this bell was somewhat different from the other decorations, although this difference was very subtle, but because of my special attention to the bell, I could see it.
It is different from other ornaments that are poured in one piece, and at the joints, you can see very tiny seams, as small as hair, is the mechanism here?
At this time, passer-by A obviously sensed that something was wrong with me, squatted next to me, followed my gaze, and then sighed, and seemed to have found something, and immediately, his hand with a black gold set buckled the protruding bell ornament, and then rotated extremely slowly from side to side, I couldn't see how much force he used, but after a while, the green meridian in his hand exploded, and the corners of his mouth were tight, at this moment, I found that the bell actually moved, at the same time. An extremely subtle 'click' sounded.
It's as if something has been triggered.
The three of us suddenly stared nervously at the bronze coffin, it was a click, and there was no other sound, at this time, passerby A got up, raised his chin at Xiaohua, and then made a gesture, signaling Xiaohua to step forward, I know, they are trying to open the coffin.
I caught a glimpse of Xiaohua put the small charge in the corner of the wall, so I held it in my hand, pointed the gun at the bronze coffin, passerby A saw my movements, sneered in his mouth, as if to laugh at my timidity, I said in my heart: Lao Tzu's physique of opening the coffin must meet brown, it is better to take precautions earlier. Now that I was covered in wounds and had a gunshot wound on my shoulder, even if I went to help, I couldn't use much force, but would break the wound, so I simply stood on the wall and watched the two people put their hands against the bronze coffin, pushing hard.
Due to the proximity of the fire dragon, it didn't take long for me to feel hot, and I couldn't help but move forward a little distance, and suddenly, I felt that there was something strange about my surroundings, but I couldn't tell what was strange.
The fire dragon was not extinguished again, it was still beating on the tomb wall, and there was no strange sound around, so where did the uneasiness in my heart come from? Human feeling is a kind of indescribable thing, sometimes strangely accurate, sometimes it is a false alarm, British psychologists, the feeling is classified as the human subconscious, that is, when the human brain has not yet reacted, the subconscious has already made an analysis of the situation, so, my current feeling is not that the subconscious has found any danger, but I have not yet perceived it?
Where does that danger come from?
I felt that my heart was getting weaker and weaker, as if something extremely frightening was about to happen, but when I looked around, it was all safe, Xiaohua and Passerby A were still pushing the bronze coffin hard, and there was nothing abnormal at all.
Am I being too careful? Could it be the sequelae of my long-term fighting? Nervous as soon as the coffin is opened?
At this moment, I suddenly heard a harsh sound in my ears, a little heavy, as if a huge stone door was opening, and at the same time, Xiaohua snorted: "Move, work harder, heyββ! β
The sound came from the bronze coffin, maybe the mechanism just now was right, the coffin lid has been displaced, revealing a very small slit, seeing this situation, I couldn't help but step forward to help, as a result, as soon as I exerted my strength, there was a sharp pain on my shoulder, and I broke out in a cold sweat.
Xiaohua smiled helplessly: "Wu Xie, I don't need you." "I know that it's not the time to be reckless, anyway, I have done a lot of embarrassing things, and it's not bad for this, so I immediately straightened up from the bronze coffin, and when I looked up, my heart suddenly chuckled.
I saw the stone sculpture on the other side and finally knew what was wrong.
Because I found that the faces of those stone carvings, one by one at the moment, were all looking at us.
The wolf faces, or crying or laughing, at this moment, they are facing us, or level, or down, or obliquely staring, the narrow wolf eyes, as if they are alive, revealing an evil energy.
My voice was a little hoarse, and I hurriedly called Xiaohua and the two: "Xie Xiaojiu......" Xiaohua was probably dissatisfied with the nickname I gave him, frowned and looked at me, it was about my face that was ugly at the moment, his frowning expression turned to shock, and then he looked at me in the past, and in an instant, his expression changed dramatically.
W-What the fuck is going on?
I was feeling panicked, and a dull sound suddenly sounded in the dead tomb, as if the friction of some heavy object, I subconsciously looked at the source of the sound, and suddenly my heart jumped, the lid of the bronze coffin was moving on its own.
What's inside?
With such a heavy bronze cover, it is Xiaohua and Passerby A, and it is extremely difficult to move, damn it, what is lying inside? Looking at the posture, this is about to raise the corpse, and the small charge in my hand suddenly faced the exposed slit, and I didn't care about those weird wolf head stone carvings.
The lid of the coffin was only halfway open and stopped, I looked inside nervously, the black hole was hollow, and the light of the fire dragon didn't seem to be able to penetrate into it, what was inside? At this time, Xiaohua glanced at me and motioned for me to get out of the way, I took two steps back, and then, passerby A and Xiaohua arrived at the end of the coffin, holding the coffin lid with both hands, it seemed that they were about to look at the coffin lid.
At this time, Xiaohua looked at the small charge in my hand and made a lip shape: "Attention." I nodded, staring at the coffin without blinking, waiting for the contents to come out, and the next moment, Xiaohua and the passerby suddenly exerted force, as if they were being put on by the mighty King Kong, and with their loud shouts in unison, the huge bronze cover slammed to the ground.
At this moment, I heard an extremely sharp cry in my ears, the sound was indescribable, listening to the ear, the whole eardrum was aching, as if there were countless embroidery needles piercing your eardrum, and at the same time, a black shadow the size of a monkey suddenly rushed up from the coffin, and swooped into the darkness above.
What's that?
The muzzle of my gun was pointed upwards in an instant, and there were only countless hanging corpses on it, as if they were also disturbed by the black shadow, and began to shake, and the black hair that hung down fluttered and fluttered, forming a strange black shadow.
Xiaohua was panting very quickly and asked passer-by, "What is it?" β
Passerby A looked up at the top and said after a while, "I didn't see it clearly." The three of us watched cautiously upward, expecting the shadow to jump down, but there was a quiet ensuing, perhaps the unknown thing was gone.
Wait, is there a passage up there?
I suddenly thought of this floor, and I couldn't help but turn on the flashlight as well, but the light still couldn't reach the top, and I could only see the swaying figure of the hanging corpse and the two hanging chains.
At this time, passer-by A retracted his gaze and looked into the bronze coffin, although I didn't know what the black shadow was, but looking at the situation, it probably wouldn't come back, so I also went up to check, but I couldn't help but be stunned at a glance, because the bronze coffin was empty.
