Chapter 31: The Chamber of Secrets
But Qing Ji didn't seem to feel the two sculptures in front of the door at all, and still hugged Li Shenghui with a smile and said.
If you go in, you don't know what danger is inside, but if you don't go in, you will freeze to death sooner or later.
After weighing the pros and cons, Li Shenghui found that he seemed to have to go in.
Looking at this pyramid, which seems to be thousands of years old, Li Shenghui always feels that it seems that it is not so simple.
Let's not talk about anything else, the pyramid is also a tomb, if you go to someone's grave, can they let you go in so easily?
However, now Li Shenghui has no choice, either let it go, or he will be frozen to death outside.
So Li Shenghui gritted his teeth, and then walked into this huge pyramid with Qing Ji.
But when Li Shenghui and Qing Ji just entered, before they could react, the torches around them suddenly "banged" and burned directly, and the originally dim pyramid was illuminated brightly in an instant.
"Not good. ”
Li Shenghui seemed to react, and hurriedly turned his head and ran outside, but it was too late.
I saw that the originally open door was suddenly closed when Li Shenghui just turned around, sealing Li Shenghui and Qingji in the pyramid.
"I knew ......"
Li Shenghui suddenly wanted to cry without tears.
Because the moment Li Shenghui walked into the pyramid, he suddenly heard a slight sound of gears turning, and then the fire inserted in the wall burned himself.
Taken together, these phenomena can only show one problem, Li Shenghui has already triggered the mechanism the moment he enters the pyramid.
But by the time Li Shenghui reacted and turned his head to leave, the door was already closed.
"No, I really can't get out now. ”
Li Shenghui walked to the front of the door and pushed it a few times, but the door did not move at all, Li Shenghui estimated that the door weighed at least a thousand pounds, and he would definitely not be able to push it open.
"The door is sealed, and you can't get out from here. ”
Li Shenghui looked around, and then said with a frown.
"There seems to be a path here, so let's go from here. ”
Qing Ji pointed to the passage leading to the depths of the pyramid, and then said to Li Shenghui.
"I have no choice but to go here. ”
Li Shenghui looked at it and found that there was no other way, so he had to take Qing Ji and slowly walk towards the depths of the pyramid.
From the outside, the pyramids look old, as if no one had been there for thousands of years, and it seems that when the wind blows, they all collapse.
But there is a hole in the inside of the pyramid, which can definitely be called the idiom of splendor.
However, just after Li Shenghui and Qing Ji slowly disappeared at the end of the corridor, the sand at the entrance of the pyramid slowly began to sink.
Along the way, Li Shenghui observed the structure and decoration inside the pyramid and couldn't help but be amazed.
I saw that the walls around were made of stones, and the stones were carved with patterns similar to paintings, you know, this was built in ancient times, and now after many years, there is still no sign of damage.
But when Li Shenghui took Qingji and walked for a while, he suddenly found that there seemed to be two forks in the road ahead.
"Hey, how did this become two roads?"
Kiyohime looked at the fork in the road ahead and asked suspiciously.
"You don't understand this, according to history, the pyramids are actually Western tombs, in order to protect the relics and corpses of the deceased, there will definitely be some labyrinth-like things. ”
Li Shenghui explained to Qing Ji while observing the two paths.
But Li Shenghui observed for a long time, and did not find any difference between the two roads, so in desperation, he had to choose a random road and continue walking.
However, it didn't take long for the two to come to a fork in the road again.
This time, Li Shenghui made up his mind and kept walking towards the left road, because Li Shenghui had also read some similar books, which were generally like this kind of maze, as long as he looked in one direction and maintained a sense of direction, he would basically not get lost.
Then, Li Shenghui took Qing Ji and walked around this pyramid for more than half an hour, but he still didn't come out.
Looking at the two forks in the road in front of him, Li Shenghui couldn't help but feel a headache in writing.
According to the previous view of this pyramid from the outside, it should not be so big, it took half an hour to walk, enough to circle the pyramid three times.
Suddenly, Li Shenghui had an idea, walked to the surrounding walls, and began to observe the patterns on the walls.
"Kiyohime, can you remember this pattern?"
Li Shenghui touched his chin and looked at it for a while, then asked Qingji.
"I'll try. ”
Kiyohime nodded obediently, and then stared intently at the painting on the wall.
After a while, I saw Qing Ji first slowly close her eyes, and then open them suddenly, and then nodded and said:
"Okay, I remember. ”
Li Shenghui took Qingji to continue walking, and sure enough, after walking for a while, a new fork in the road appeared.
"Come, Kiyohime, look at the painting on this wall again, how different it is from the one just now. ”
Li Shenghui waved his hand and called Qingji in front of him.
Kiyohime stepped forward and looked at it with wide eyes, and immediately showed a surprised expression.
"Wow, the painting is different. ”
Qing Ji looked at Li Shenghui and said with some surprise.
In the following process, Li Shenghui would ask Qing Ji to memorize the patterns on the wall every time he reached a fork in the road, and after several back and forth, when Qing Ji saw the patterns on the wall, he found that it was the same as the first time.
"Dad, this pattern is exactly the same as the first time we saw it. ”
Kiyohime pointed to the pattern on the wall, and then said in surprise.
Hearing Qing Ji say this, Li Shenghui immediately understood, and also verified a thought in his heart.
According to these phenomena, Li Shenghui and Qing Ji are just going around in circles, but no matter how Li Qing goes, there are a total of five forks in the road, and if he tries one by one, he may have starved to death here before he can get out.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Li Shenghui had an idea, as if he had thought of something, and hurriedly continued to observe this pattern.
Sure enough, under Li Shenghui's careful observation, he found that one of the patterns on the wall seemed to be different from other places.
Li Shenghui subconsciously reached out and touched the different place, however, before Li Shenghui could react, the place was directly concave, and then, Li Shenghui could clearly feel that the floor was vibrating.
Subsequently, Li Shenghui clearly saw that the originally closed wall slowly began to crack at this time, and finally formed a hole.
"So this is the real passage. ”
Li Shenghui looked at the hole in front of him, and couldn't help but think with some secret joy in his heart:
Thanks to the fact that I have read similar books before, I am afraid that I would not be able to walk out here for the rest of my life.
The inside of the cave was very dark, and there seemed to be no lighting, so Li Shenghui could only pull Qing Ji with one hand, and keep groping in front with the other hand, and just move forward like this.
"Dad, you don't have to pull me, I can see it clearly here. ”
And Qing Ji was still observing around, looking at the cautious Li Shenghui in front of her, and couldn't help but remind.
"Can you see that?"
Li Shenghui said with some disbelief.
"Yes, for example, if Dad takes three steps forward, he will kowtow. ”
As soon as Qing Ji's words fell, before Li Shenghui could react, he felt that his head suddenly touched something hard, which made Li Shenghui reach out and rub it in pain.
"I'll go, then why didn't you say it earlier?"
Li Shenghui rubbed his head and said with a look of resentment.
So, Li Shenghui had no choice but to let Qing Ji walk in front of him, and then slowly groped with himself.
Finally, after Li Shenghui's head was knocked out of the way, he finally walked out of the passage, and then came to a place similar to a secret room.
The walls of the chamber are still carved with stone walls, and there are torches in the four corners of the room, but there is a coffin in the middle.
Looking at this coffin, Li Shenghui only felt that his whole body was cold, as if there was someone behind him.
"You say there won't be any ghosts here, do you?"
Li Shenghui held the M16 in his hand and looked around cautiously.
And Qing Ji was very bold, walked forward directly, and with a sudden force, she actually pushed the coffin in the middle directly away.
"I'll go, what do you want to do, aren't you afraid of resurrecting a mummy or something?"
Qing Ji's action scared Li Shenghui out of his mind, so he hurriedly stepped forward, and then grabbed Qing Ji.
"No, there's a road down here. ”
Qing Ji pointed to the floor, and Li Shenghui was immediately pleasantly surprised.
It turned out that there was a hole under the coffin, and the egg was just covered by the coffin, so Li Shenghui didn't see it.
The entrance to the cave felt dark, and from the outside, it looked like a passage to the lower floor, which made Li Shenghui a little afraid to go down.
Because since the last incident in the crypt of Yihong Courtyard, Li Shenghui couldn't help but be cautious about this kind of cave, his eyes were staring at this hole, but at the same time, he was also very curious about how Qing Ji found this.
"How did you find this?"
Li Shenghui was very curious.
"Well, my body seems to be able to feel the air flow in this room, maybe this coffin is too old and a little damaged, I feel a slight wind blowing out from underneath. ”
Listening to Qing Ji's description, Li Shenghui suddenly felt that his snake egg had not hatched in vain.
However, at this moment, a dull "dongdong" sound suddenly came from inside this secret room.
When Li Shenghui heard this voice, he was directly excited, and then looked cautiously around the room.
"Daddy, that coffin ......"
And Qing Ji pointed to the coffin, then tugged at Li Shenghui's sleeve, and then prompted.
Sure enough, as soon as Qing Ji's words fell, I saw that the coffin that had been moved suddenly broke a small hole, and then the next scene made Li Shenghui's scalp tingle.
The scorpion, the dense scorpion, came out of the small hole in the coffin, and I saw that the body of each small shoe reflected a purple light, which was highly poisonous at first glance.
"Let's go, let's go!"
Li Shenghui directly picked up the M16 in his hand and fired directly at the many scorpion groups, the muzzle of the gun spewed tongues of fire, but even with such dense firepower, it could not play any role in the huge scorpion group at all.
The scorpion group is getting closer and closer to Li Shenghui, and Li Shenghui can even see the stingers behind the tail of the scorpion group at this moment, which are flashing with cold light at this time.
And at this critical moment, Qing Ji on the side suddenly shook her body, and then under Li Shenghui's gaze, the two tiger teeth in Qing Ji's mouth, which were originally sharp, actually sprayed out two venoms directly.
And after these venoms were sprayed on the ground, the scorpion swarm, which was still showing off its might, seemed to see some wild beast in an instant, and directly drilled back into the coffin, not daring to come out.
