Chapter VII: Tomb II
Chen Yunuo took a few steps back, and suddenly heard a click, and before anyone else could react to the sound of something, the person had already been pulled back to the ground by Yu Linghan, and in the looming light, he saw Yu Linghan constantly waving the things in her hand.
A few clangs flew past Chen Yunuo's ears, and he suddenly sobered up a lot, and when he came back to his senses, Yu Linghan was already standing in front of him and looking down at him.
At this time, he also saw clearly that the thing she was holding was a silver soft sword, and when she collected the sword, she realized that this soft sword was originally stored in the handle of an umbrella, no wonder she had always carried this black umbrella with her.
Chen Yunuo stood up and patted the dust on his body, and then picked up the arrow that was blocked by Yu Linghan on the ground just now, this arrow was cast in bronze and had been around for some years, and the entire arrow was full of patina. Fortunately, Yu Linghan reacted quickly, otherwise he would have become a target, but what triggered the mechanism just now? He looked at Yu Linghan and asked, "What happened just now?" ”
"You've stepped on the trap." Yu Linghan pointed to a brick dented on the ground with an umbrella, "This." ”
"Why, didn't we come from this side just now?" No, since they came down the stairs, Yu Linghan has been walking in front of him, and he has not stepped on the mechanism because he has been following her. Chen Yunuo suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, and he wanted to confirm it and asked, "Have you come down?" ”
"Hmm." Yu Linghan replied calmly.
I didn't expect Yu Linghan to admit it so simply, shouldn't he continue to hide it? Recalling that when he couldn't find a clue this morning, she took the opportunity to give a hint, but she didn't find it, Chen Yunuo, Chen Yunuo, you pride yourself on being smart, this time your vigilance is too poor, I don't know if this thing was secretly agreed by grandma, or if she stole it herself.
Chen Yunuo pinched his brows, then took out his envelope from his father and handed it to Yu Linghan: "Then what does this set of numbers mean?" ”
Yu Linghan shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”
"Haven't you been here already? How could it not be known? Chen Yunuo questioned.
"Last night, Grandma asked me to come down and help her find out if the revelation stone is in this tomb, and if there is a little, I will help her retrieve it for you, but I searched several times and didn't find it, and then I went back and waited for you to find the clue before looking for it." Yu Linghan explained.
The silent Yu Linghan said so many things at once, Chen Yunuo was a little unaccustomed to it, but it was better to explain clearly than to guess, but remembering that he had been deceived by her all the way just now, he still kept an eye on himself.
"We didn't expect that the clues you solved were still in this tomb, and the revelation should have been hidden in a very hidden place, and I must have overlooked a certain detail." Yu Linghan recalled the scene when he came down to look for the Revelation Stone last night.
"Perhaps, let's keep looking and see if there's anything missing." Chen Yunuo took a few steps forward and retreated in place, and asked Yu Linghan very reluctantly: "Is there still a mechanism here?" ”
"It's gone, it's still up ahead." Yu Linghan pointed to the darkness in front of him and said.
"Oh, let's go into this chamber and find out." After speaking, Chen Yunuo walked into a left ear chamber in the tomb road, this ear chamber is not very big, about a few flats, and there are not a few valuable bottles and cans in it, they carefully searched every place in it, and went to the ear chamber on the right without finding anything, and the ear chamber on the right is about the same as the left.
After coming out of the ear room, he continued to follow Yu Linghan's footsteps to the road in front of him, "The ancient tombs I watched on TV are all a lot of burial goods, why doesn't this tomb seem to have anything." ”
"This tomb is a virtual tomb, it is used to confuse tomb robbers, there are few burial goods in it, and there are several groups of tomb robbers who visited it a long time ago, so there is almost nothing to steal in it now." Yu Linghan said as he walked.
Chen Yunuo thought that this should be what his grandmother told Yu Linghan, for so many years, his grandmother had never mentioned this tomb to him, although he didn't know what grandma had to hide, but he still hoped that she could tell him in person, instead of letting him ask others. "Is the real tomb nearby?"
"Yes, it's deeper underground." Yu Linghan said.
"My dad wouldn't have put the Apocalypse Stone in the real tomb." Chen Yunuo boldly guessed.
Yu Linghan stopped, she found that the road she was walking now was a little wrong, last night she came out of the ear chamber and walked a short distance to the front tomb, she calculated the distance they had just walked, at this time it should have reached the front tomb, she used a flashlight to keep shining around the surrounding environment, she found that the bricks in the corridor had also undergone some changes.
Chen Yunuo saw Yu Linghan suddenly stop looking around and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"We're walking a different path now than I walked when I came down last night." Yu Linghan said with a slightly nervous expression.
"Are you sure?" Hearing her say this, Chen Yunuo's whole person also panicked, they had nothing to eat or drink, and they didn't have any equipment, and this was an ancient tomb, no one could say what they would encounter in front of them.
"Hmm."
"Then let's go back." After speaking, Chen Yunuo immediately turned around and walked back, but he didn't take a few steps, Yu Linghan ran quickly in front of him, he thought that Yu Linghan should be afraid that he would step on the mechanism again.
After they walked back for a while, they didn't see the two ear chambers when they came in just now, but there was an extra wall, Chen Yunuo touched the wall in front of him and said, "Why are there more walls, did I step on the mechanism again just now?" ”
"Probably not, I've been ahead of you, and I haven't found any mechanism along the way." Yu Linghan denied his idea.
Chen Yunuo frowned and thought for a moment and said, "Could it be that when I stepped on the mechanism before, I also touched other mechanisms, so we entered another corridor?" ”
Yu Linghan closed her eyes tightly and recalled the scene when Chen Yunuo touched the mechanism, and after a while of memory search, she found the key point, "I remember that when I blocked the last two bronze arrows, the arrows fell to the ground and seemed to hear the sound of stones rubbing, the sound was very small, I thought it was the echo of the mechanism you stepped on, so I ignored it." ”
"I think it was the arrow that happened to hit the mechanism that changed the direction of the corridor, so we came out of the ear chamber and entered the new corridor, until we walked a little way, and the mechanism returned to its original position, and the wall returned to its original place." Chen Yunuo knocked on the wall a few times with a flashlight, and there was a hollow sound inside, and he was even more sure that he had guessed correctly. "If you knock, it's a cavity inside, and it should be the way we came."
Yu Linghan also knocked on the wall a few times, and after confirming it, she touched the bricks around the wall with her hand, and after a while of searching, she still didn't find the mechanism that opened the wall here.
"So what do we do now? Is it to continue going down? After spending so long, Chen Yunuo was also a little tired, so he sat on the ground and rested for a while.
"Don't go down in the past, you can't walk around in the tomb without grandma's permission." Yu Linghan replied.
"Why? Is it dangerous? Chen Yunuo asked puzzled.
"This road may lead to the real tomb, and we can't go in without grandma's permission." Yu Linghan saw that Chen Yunuo was still puzzled and continued: "Grandma is the keeper of this tomb, and no one is allowed to enter the tomb she guards without her permission, this is one of the strict family rules of our clan, so your father will not put the revelation stone in the real tomb below, but only in the virtual tomb above." ”
"Grandma is a mausoleum keeper? Why haven't I ever heard her mention it? After saying this, Chen Yunuo felt that he was beating his mouth, in fact, since the day his father and brother received the gold post 6 years ago, he felt very unfamiliar with everything at home.
"What is the Tomb Keeper going to do? Grandma is a mausoleum keeper, so what about my father? Is he too? Chen Yunuo hoped to know some things about his family from Yu Linghan's mouth.
"I can't say this yet, since you have received the golden post, they will tell you everything you want to know when you return home." Yu Linghan replied refusively.
"Okay." Since she doesn't say it, he can't be strong.
After a while, they didn't speak, and Chen Yunuo felt a little embarrassed more and more in such a dark environment, so he had to speak first to relieve himself, "Well, hmph, why do you say that my father has to put the revelation stone in the tomb so troublesome, just put it in the bank safe, save me from being so embarrassed." ”
"The Revelation Stone is very precious, and when you don't wear it, you need to keep it with spring water." Yu Linghan gently touched the bead on her left hand, and subconsciously smiled and said.
Her subtle expression happened to be caught by Chen Yunuo, and she also had this expression when she touched this bead on the train before, he thought that this bead must not be simple, "Is that one in your hand a revelation stone?" ”
"Hmm." Yu Linghan's smile passed for a moment.
I've been hearing them talk about the Apocalypse Stone for a few days, Chen Yunuo is really curious about what the Apocalypse Stone looks like, he walked up to Yu Linghan and asked, "Can I take a look?" ”
"Hmm." Yu Linghan glanced at Chen Yunuo and stretched out his hand to show him.
Chen Yunuo shone the flashlight on the beads in her hand, the beads looked like a bunch of fire was constantly beating and burning, it was really beautiful, the flames inside seemed to beckon to him, he was fascinated, and his hand unconsciously reached out and touched it.
"Don't touch it." Yu Linghan suddenly shouted.
was shouted by her, and Chen Yunuo jumped up in fright.
"Are your hands alright? Does it hurt? Yu Linghan nervously picked up his hand and checked it again, but there was no burn at all. She stared at his hand with a slight frown, thinking, others would burn badly if they touched her revelation stone, and he was unscathed, how could this be?
Chen Yunuo looked at her nervous appearance and felt that she didn't seem to be joking, so he picked up the flashlight and shone it on his hand, looked at it carefully and said, "It's okay, what's wrong?" ”
Didn't he touch the Revelation Stone just now? Yu Linghan asked again uneasily: "Did you touch the Revelation Stone just now?" ”
Seeing her serious expression, Chen Yunuo didn't know if he changed his words to touch it, or if he didn't touch it? But the man's husband should admit it when he did it, so he had to smile at her awkwardly and say, "I touched it." ”
Yu Linghan was very puzzled and checked Chen Yunuo's hand again, and after making sure that he was really fine, he walked to a place a few meters away from him and sat with his back to him.
In this situation, Chen Yunuo felt as if he had done something wrong, and he didn't know if Yu Linghan was angry? He didn't dare to disturb her. If you really go back to before the liberation, it seems that they can only sit and wait like this, hoping that grandma will send some people down to find them when they see that they haven't gone up for so long.
