"You're so optimistic. ()" Lei Zi said helplessly.

"You can't give up hope." Tang Sancheng said as he approached the brazier, the fire in the brazier had slowly become smaller, and if he didn't hurry up, it would be too late: "It's just such a little fire, I don't know if it can burn." “

Lei Zi struggled to find a small bottle of something from his pocket, it was a stainless steel kettle, and as soon as he raised his hand, he threw it into Tang Sancheng's hand: "It's a pity that I have this pot of good wine, I didn't expect this tree to be cheap." “

"It's useful." Tang Sancheng opened the lid of the pot, spilled the wine in the pot, just sprinkled on those branches, and then picked up the brazier and threw it at the branches, this tree doesn't rely on vines to absorb prey, it is equivalent to the hand of the same tree, burning its hand, that is, cutting off its energy, the brazier fell on the branch that poured the wine, the fire suddenly burned, the branch really seemed to be alive, struggling in the fire, swinging up and down left and right, seeing Tang Sancheng's heart twitch and twitch, he took two steps back: "This tree is really evil, Leizi, I seem to have heard the voice." “

"Voice? What was that? Leizi said: "I only smell the smell of burnt." “

"I can't tell it, it's like the tree is coming from, like a human scream. Tang Sancheng covered his ears: "I really can't listen to it anymore, how do I feel like someone is poking my heart with a knife." “

Tang Sancheng's words made Lei Zi creepy, and he shuddered: "Don't say it!" “

When the two of them spoke, the branches of the tree were almost burned, and the trunk of the tree was also blackened, Tang Sancheng picked up another stone and threw it over, right in the trunk, this round, the tree had no reaction, he was overjoyed: "I'll go over and see if there is an exit." “

Tang Sancheng stepped on the ashes of the branches, there was indeed a small hole on the other side of the tree, which could only be passed through by one person, the other side of the hole was dark and could not be seen, Tang Sancheng took off the lamp on his head and shone it into the cave, he was immediately shocked to take a step back, and at the same time that the light passed, he saw a pair of eyes!

Those eyes looked at him without blinking, and Tang Sancheng asked, "Who is it?" Is it Lao Fan? “

"Tang Sancheng, what's going on?" Lei Zi couldn't walk over, and when he heard Tang Sancheng's surprised voice, he was a little worried: "Are you okay?" “

Tang Sancheng quickly retreated to Lei Zi's side, and told what he had just seen, Lei Zi secretly complained, this Tang Sancheng is called evil, how to follow him wherever he goes, where strange things happen, Tang Sancheng comforted himself: "It may be Lao Fan, I'll go and see again." （）“

"Be careful." Lei Zi explained: "If there is anything wrong, retreat quickly." “

"Okay." Tang Sancheng agreed and walked to the entrance of the cave again, and first "heyed": "Old Fan! “

He really hoped that the person inside was Lao Fan, how good it was, but unfortunately he even screamed several times, and there was no response at all, those eyes were staring at him like that, Tang Sancheng's heart was horizontal, his hand reached over directly, and when he touched a hard thing, he pinched it and took it...... Just took it out so easily, Tang Sancheng saw that there was a silver mask in his hand, and there was a pair of holes in the eyes on the mask, looking at it in a dark place, was it just a pair of eyes? Tang Sancheng couldn't cry or laugh, wiping the sweat from his forehead, he was really scared into a cold sweat just now, what kind of person, putting a mask here is scary.

Tang Sancheng took the mask back, and Lei Zi said "Huh": "The sterling silver mask, but how can it be here." “

"I don't know, or else the people who used to fall down fell here?" Tang Sancheng helped Lei Zi over, planning to drill through the hole to see if he could get out. （）

Because Lei Zi was injured, so Tang Sancheng let him be in front, and he could boost him in the back, so that the efficiency could be faster, the two of them nested in a narrow hole, their hands and feet moved together, Lei Zi's whole body was weak, but Tang Sancheng was pushing him in the back, and the movement was not slow, the two of them didn't know how long they had climbed, and their eyes slowly opened up, and finally the two of them stood upright, Tang Sancheng helped Lei Zi to stand up: "Mom, where is this?" “

Five rooms and three tunnels, here is obviously different from the cave just now, the stone walls here are smooth, and the ground is also paved with patterned stone slabs, which is obviously carefully built, which of the five rooms is this? Tang Sancheng turned around, pressed his hand on a square stone block at the entrance of the cave, and a stone slab suddenly came out to cover the entrance of the cave, and Lei Zi's face changed: "I think I know." “

"What do you know?" Tang Sancheng asked.

"I know where this silver mask came from, I think before us, in addition to the student who strayed into here, there were also peers who came in, the silver mask was taken from here, touched the mechanism, and entered the cave, but accidentally left the silver mask, just out of the cave, I encountered the cannibal tree......"

Thinking that the peer who was upside down was also unlucky, he came here, thinking that he had succeeded, but he was lured to the cannibal tree, and ended up with no bones, the reason why Tang Sancheng thought of the word "lure" was because this organ was too eye-catching, and it was clearly to tell people that there was an organ here, and there was something strange here, what was this not tempting people to enter?

No wonder the handbook repeatedly mentions the illusion, the labyrinth, which is also part of it, Tang Sancheng looked here: "Bai Yi said that the specifications here are five rooms and three tunnels, I don't know which room is here." “

In this stone room, the ground is paved with stone slabs, with a divine seat, for one emperor and two queens, all like the throne used by the emperor and queen during his lifetime, especially the emperor's throne is very distinctive, the emperor's throne is carved with a dragon, there are four dragon heads carved on the backrest, and a whole dragon is carved behind it, and the dragon head stretches out to the front of the backrest to make a play bead.

The throne of the east and west is decorated with a phoenix, both of which are carved with white marble, on the throne of the east and west, the phoenix shape is slightly different, the phoenix shape on the throne of the east is wing-shaped, and the phoenix shape on the throne of the west is the shape of a probe head, which is slightly different.

At the front of the throne is an offering table, "There should be five offerings on it, this is the imperial tomb, there must be at least five offerings." "What are the five offerings?"

"Generally speaking, it is an incense burner, a pair of candlesticks, a pair of vases, there have been excavated imperial tombs before, and the five offerings are made of yellow glaze, and now the altar is empty, it seems that the things have been taken away like the silver mask, and it is possible that even the people and things have been contributed to the cannibal tree." Lei Zi's words were not without pity: "It's a pity." “

"It's okay, at least a silver mask has fallen." Tang Sancheng was quite optimistic, he saw the three porcelain jars in front of the divine seat, each facing a throne.

He took a closer look, and there was still something solid inside, in a condensed state, and ...... Wick, Lei Zi said: "This is the everlasting lamp." “

Tang Sancheng has heard of the ever-bright lamp, also known as the continuous lamp, or the endless lamp, that is, the lamp that is always bright day and night before the Buddha. Since ancient times, the lights lit by every household on Chinese New Year's Eve cannot be blown out until the oil is exhausted and the candle finally extinguishes itself, which is an ancient traditional custom. Legend has it that on Chinese New Year's Eve, because the gods went to heaven, the ghosts and gods came out to look for food, especially those who were not honored during the New Year's Festival. If the lights are blown out and the sky is not seen in the dark, it will catch people with a sound, especially when children cry in the middle of the night and the elderly cough, their lives will be difficult to protect.

Chinese kings will also be placed in the mausoleum of the ever-bright lamp, the meaning of which is naturally different from the ordinary people's homes, they hope that their imperial mausoleum can be as brilliant as the palace before death, the place where the person dies is the Yin House, but also the house, a lantern is always on, but also as a life of death.

Lei Zi reached out to the jar and touched it, and sniffed it: "This is waxy lamp oil, it's been so long, the lamp oil is still there, it seems that this everlasting lamp has been extinguished not long after it has been lit, if this emperor knows about it, he has to kill the person who lit the lamp." “
