Guigu Wormhole Chapter 27 A glimmer of life
"Summer... Mr. Xia, did you hear that? Looks like there's movement at this gate. The scholar was the first to confirm the situation.
I looked at the door with a flashlight, there was no major change from before, the only difference was that there was a trace of blood on the door - it was the blood flowing from the wound on the back of the fourth master. Don't... Is there a biocipus in this door? Just like in modern science, fingerprints, retina, and sound are used as the password for opening and closing the door, could it be that this bronze gate was set up by Long Fengdu with the blood code of the Long family? Thinking of this, I hurriedly rubbed a little blood from the wound of the fourth master and smeared it on the carving of the bronze gate. Sure enough, there was another sound from the gate.
We all started to get excited, as if we saw a way out. The injuries on the fourth master's body were not light, and a lot of blood flowed out. Now I can't care too much, so I have to smear the blood from the wound on the bronze door, and the door makes a continuous sound, and then suddenly a small gap is automatically opened with a "dang" sound. I worked together with Lao Xu and scholars, and the door was finally opened!
The scholar and I hurriedly set up the weak fourth master and followed Lao Xu out to run out. Outside, it was still the scene when we came in, and facing us was the sacrificial road and the statues of the tomb beasts on both sides. When I first arrived here, I felt very strange and uncomfortable when I saw those tomb beasts. Now that I have finally escaped after all the hardships, I feel very kind when I see these tomb beast statues again. Therefore, human beings are very special, they are obviously the same thing, but when you look at it in a different mood, you get different cognitive feelings.
Before we could celebrate, we saw a loud noise from the bronze gate, and then we saw a strange python with five heads swimming out. However, this time, it did not look as majestic as it had when it first appeared, and now it was like a lost dog, with no good place on its body, and many scales and armor had fallen off, revealing its dark inner skin. The infant corpses did not chase out of the gate for some reason, and later we analyzed that it may be that Long Fengdu has made some ingenious design on this gate, similar to Taoist charms, which can shock the four infant corpses, so that they can not go out of the bronze gate, and can only stay in the upper dormitory to guard the courtyard.
The python came out and began to go berserk, as if it wanted to get back the face it had lost inside, and rushed at us in a frenzy. In an instant, several tomb-town beast statues were knocked down. Seeing that the situation was not good, we hurriedly set up the fourth master who had fallen into a coma and ran out. This is pitch black here, uneven, and the fourth master is injured, so he really can't run fast. In this way, everyone began to panic in their hearts, and when people panicked, they were easy to make mistakes, and we made a big mistake - we actually panicked and ran to a dead end. There were stone walls behind us, on the left and right, and if we tried to retreat, the python had already blocked the way. It feels like dirt under my feet, but now I don't have the tools, and even the tools don't have time to dig a hole...
The python was not lightly injured, but it was still easy to crush a few of us. Five monsters, with ten small bulb-like red eyes, stared at us viciously. I'm afraid I'm going to have to explain it here. The scholar said that the horizontal is also dead, and the vertical is also dead, so it is better to fight with it. After speaking, he took out two fuel canisters from his backpack, and tore off a few strips of cloth from his clothes and handed them to Lao Xu. Lao Xu quickly made two incendiary bombs. When he first came here, the scholar ridiculed the tomb owner for being stingy and reluctant to light the lamp. At that time, Lao Xu and the fourth master both discovered the secret hidden in the statue of the tomb beast - each statue had a poisonous insect called the black bee fly sleeping in the eyeballs of each statue - this small flying insect is not only very poisonous, but also wakes up when it encounters an open flame. Now we really have no way out, we can only take a risk, just like the scholar said, the big deal is to end up.
Lao Xu made the incendiary bomb, and the giant python also crawled to a distance of less than ten meters from us, and I could even smell the fishy smell on its body. didn't have time to think about it, the scholar and Lao Xu lit the gasoline bottle at the same time, and threw it over according to the python. The two gasoline bottles tumbled in the air, each in a beautiful arc, right in the python's neck and abdomen. Then the oil in the bottle spilled out and burned immediately when it caught fire. The five-headed python obviously didn't expect the fire to be severe, and it was in pain for a while, so it quickly shrank its head and turned around, rolling on the ground. This giant python is almost becoming sperm, its body is fat, and many of the scales and armor on its body have fallen off when fighting with the infant corpse, revealing its real skin. When it encountered an open flame, it suddenly caught fire, and in a few seconds it turned into a huge "fire snake". Those five heads writhed incessantly, even terrifyingly. A few of us didn't expect this giant python to be so flammable, and we were also stunned in the face of the monster in front of us that kept twisting its body.
The five-headed python rolled back and forth, but the fire did not go down but rose, and the huge flames lit up the entire cave. Through the firelight, I found that many tomb beast statues had black and green spots in their eyes, and flying insects the size of cicadas crawled out. As if they were adapting to the environment, the flying insects stopped and flew around the statue of the Tomb Beast. However, after a short time, like soldiers who had received orders, they soon formed a solemn queue and began to assemble in the air.
Since I reunited with the scholar, I felt that I had experienced a lot of unbelievable things, so when I faced these dangers again, my mind was already a little numb. In other words, I didn't know the danger of the black bee fly, so I didn't think it was so scary. And Lao Xu couldn't do it, and cold sweat broke out. The mouth kept repeating "It's over, it's over." "It seems that Lao Xu is very jealous of this black bee. I saw that the big python was lying on the ground, and the fire was still very strong, and it was estimated that he should have been burned to death. It's a pity that its cultivation is now buried in the fire. But I took pity on it, but no one took pity on me, and we had to find a way to get out of it before the black bee bee attacked.
I suddenly realized that in the corridor where the bronze statue of the giant eye was found, the stone walls on both sides moved and squeezed to the middle because we triggered the mechanism, and now the only way back is estimated to have been crushed to death by the stone walls on both sides. It would be good if the fourth master was sober, maybe he had a good way, now I, the scholar and Lao Xu all feel that it is almost impossible to return the same way, do you want to be trapped and die here?
The black bee fly does not allow us to think too much, it is getting denser and more excited, as if it is about to rush over after the pre-war mobilization. "It's a big deal, brothers, don't panic. Now that there is no way out, you must calm down. "I still cheer up the scholars and Lao Xu. The more you face danger, the more you need to be calm. Anyway, I don't know how to find a way out for a while, and I don't want this fourth master to be a wronged ghost, so I should find a way to say goodbye, so I took out the last bit of water from my bag and gave it to the fourth master to drink. Then try to lower your voice and call the name of the fourth master. The fourth master was quite face-saving, and he slowly woke up. The fourth master asked weakly, "Where is this?" Where's the python? ”
The scholar shook his head and replied: "Fourth master, I am thinking about revenge, there are two news, one good news and one bad news. The good news is that your enemy has been taken care of. The bad news is that we're going down to see your enemy soon..."
The fourth master didn't understand for a while, so I quickly said what had happened. The fourth master saw the black bees fluttering and gathering in the sky in the distance, and his originally pale face immediately darkened. Lao Xu reminded him that maybe the Huisheng Zhi in our body can resist the poison of these black bees. The fourth master shook his head: "These black bees are ancient poisons, they are not afraid of water and fire, and they are extremely toxic, and there is no antidote in the world." And once it goes crazy, it's like a school of piranhas to attack in groups. In ancient times, if tomb robbers encountered black bees in ancient tombs, most of them committed suicide to escape torture..."
After we heard what the fourth master said, our hearts were completely desperate. But it's not my character to sit still, and scholars won't give up. I suddenly thought of a question, when we came to this ancient tomb, Lao Xu once introduced that the ancient tomb is generally divided into the Ming Palace, the Sleeping Hall and the Matching Palace. Now we are in the Ming Palace, and the upper and lower two floors of the dormitory have also been, so what about the side hall? Why didn't I find the temple? I raised this question, and the scholar laughed at me, saying that I couldn't imagine that Xia Nan, who claimed to be a humble gentleman, was still thinking about the funeral treasure of his friend's ancestor before he died. I gave him a blank look and ignored the scholar. Lao Xu also looked confused, and the fourth master pondered for a moment and said, "Xia Nan is right, perhaps, we still have a glimmer of life....."
We all looked at each other for a while, and we all knew what the fourth master meant, only by finding the matching hall, could it be possible to escape from death. What's more, Lao Xu said that in ancient times, when the cemetery was built, the owner of the tomb would seal the craftsman in the ancient tomb in order to prevent the craftsman from leaking secrets. Closed in the envy, under the outside of the envy door, closed craftsmen hidden, no comeback", is to wait for the Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum to be built, all the craftsmen will be sealed in it. Although the ancient tomb of Old Man Long is built on the basis of a natural karst cave, it is also a large project, and it stands to reason that there should be many craftsmen who have been sealed in the tomb. However, in the process of exploration, we did not find a large number of bones of burial, indicating that the craftsmen at that time were either let go, or quietly left a secret retreat somewhere according to the secrets of the industry. In ancient times, especially in the Qin and Han dynasties, when the slave society had just changed from a feudal society, the lives of craftsmen were not valuable. If there are no large number of craftsmen's corpses here, it only means that they have left a secret retreat. After the burial chamber was sealed, they escaped through a secret retreat.
Lao Xu's words made us immediately excited, as if we saw a glimmer of light in the night. Lao Xu said: "The matching hall is generally behind the dormitory, it seems that we must get rid of the black bee bee, and pass through the upper dormitory of the infant corpse, and then go down to the lower dormitory, and then do the calculation." ”
