Chapter 183: False Tomb and Suspicious Coffin
As soon as the whistle sounded, Xia Yanru knew that Yu Feng and the others must be in danger, and she didn't have time to think about why the coffin was empty, so she had to go back and rush to save Yu Feng and the others.
"What kind of luck are we, where the hell did this lice beetle come from?" Yu Feng held a torch and kept waving it to repel the swarming lice beetles.
"I must have stepped on some mechanism when I came, Sister Xia had already reminded me that this dungeon must be more dangerous than above, and there must be a lot of traps." Tu Hongxing's torch had also been lost before, and he could only use his weapon to attack the lice beetles that jumped on the two of them.
"This tomb hasn't arrived yet, but it's been besieged by these bugs, can't we explain it here?" The power of those lice beetles, Yu Feng has seen it with his own eyes, and he really doesn't want to be gnawed by himself, and he doesn't even have a bone residue.
"Talk less nonsense, and you'll be able to hold out more." Tu Hongxing roared angrily.
By the time Xia Yanru rushed over, the two of them were already about to fall into the pile of insects, so they took out their tooth knives and cut their palms again, soaked in blood and soaked a few pieces of rags cut from their clothes, and threw them out in three positions.
The lice beetles didn't react at first, but after a while, a riot suddenly poured towards the three pieces of blood, and Xia Yanru also took the opportunity to throw out a long whip and roll the two to her side.
"Let's go first!" Xia Yanru looked serious, and seeing that the two of them could still hold on, she decisively took the two of them to the tomb.
Those lice beetles were only temporarily attracted by the blood cloth, and when they finished eating the blood cloth, it was estimated that they should continue to follow the breath of the living to catch up.
"Sister Yanru, we" The three of them finally entered the tomb, Yu Feng was not interested in paying attention to the coffin in the center, but looked at Xia Yanru's left hand with a gloomy face.
"If you were you, I would have made the same decision." Xia Yanru waved her hand to interrupt Yu Feng's words, knowing what the other party was going to say, she was glad that her blood was still a little bit left, otherwise even if she wanted to save people, she might not be able to do it in time.
Tu Hongxing felt ashamed, and he lowered his head and didn't know what to say, in fact, he had just encountered lice beetles, and he didn't plan to blow the whistle for help, but then there were more and more lice beetles, and neither he nor Yu Feng had the ability to resist, so he had no choice but to whistle.
"Okay, open the coffin as soon as possible and take a look at the situation, those lice beetles will fight back at any time, time is running out." Xia Yanru reminded, "I just found the same coffin over there, it's empty inside, you can find out if the mechanism is on the lower right side." ”
When Yu Feng and Tu Hongxing heard this, they tried to cheer up and not think about it, time is indeed running out, so it is better to hurry up and do the right thing at this time.
The two groped around on the coffin, and sure enough, they found the mechanism to open the coffin, Yu Feng pressed it hard, and the coffin was the same as what Xia Yanru had seen before, like a flower.
The first layer of coffins was opened, and there was also another layer inside, without letting Xia Yanru make a move, Yu Feng and the two of them worked together to push the lid of the second layer of coffins open, and the rest was the last coffin.
"Shall we light a candle or something?" Yu Feng looked at the last layer of coffins and asked with some uncertainty.
"What are you lighting candles for?" Tu Hongxing was speechless, it was enough to light it with his right hand, and the brightness of the candle did not play much role.
"What, I heard from the archaeological team that when the coffin is opened, a candle will be lit in the southeast corner, and if the candle is suddenly extinguished, it means that it is not suitable to continue to open the coffin." Yu Feng scratched his head and said.
Tu Hongxing rolled his eyes speechlessly, and studied how to open the coffin alone, he didn't want to deal with this idiot at all, the people in the archaeological team were talking about the style of the tomb robbery sect, and they were not tomb robbers, nor were they seeking money, so there was no such taboo.
"Am I not right?" Yu Feng saw that Tu Hongxing didn't answer him, so he asked again.
"Are you a grave robber?" Tu Hongxing asked angrily.
"Of course not, how can I be a tomb robber in my good young man in the new society." Yu Feng hurriedly shook his head.
"Since you are not a tomb robber, what kind of wax do you order, this style is handed down by tomb robbers in ancient times, and the person who told you this is probably not from an orthodox archaeological background, we neither seek wealth nor treasure, and we don't have to act according to the style of tomb robbers at all." Tu Hongxing explained helplessly.
"Oh, forget it, that's what I said, let's open the coffin quickly." Yu Feng also knew that he was stupid again, and the things he had experienced along the way were too weird, which made him can't help but think of the news he heard from the archaeological team before.
Suddenly, the three of them felt the entire tomb shake at the same time, and Xia Yanru was holding a tooth knife with a very serious expression on her face.
"Earthquake?" Yu Feng looked dazed.
"Not really." Tu Hongxing shook his head, how can there be an earthquake that only shakes once, it is estimated that there are other reasons.
"Open the coffin first, you get out of the way." Xia Yanru stepped forward in two steps, raised the tooth knife, and when the two of them walked away, they split the coffin lid with one knife, and as expected, the inside was also empty.
"It's empty." Yu Feng stepped forward, thinking that he could see the legendary two-headed and four-armed, but the coffin was empty, and there was nothing.
"There is nothing in the coffin on Sister Xia's side, and there is no one on our side, is it true that the main tomb is on Donglin's side?" Tu Hongxing said with a frown.
"Isn't it true that all three?" Yu Feng originally felt that the Red Eye King was just mentioned in the legend, although this underground palace did shock him, but he still had doubts about whether the Red Eye King really existed.
"If it's all empty, are we misjudged, maybe the real main burial chamber is behind the other passages?" Tu Hongxing has read through the chronicles, in fact, although he also has some doubts about the Red Eye King, he still believes that he exists.
Moreover, it is impossible for the ancestors to spend so much energy to build such an empty tomb, if this is not the tomb of the Red Eye King, then it is also the tomb of other ancestors, so you can't put an empty tomb here, right?
Before the three of them could figure out what was going on, the door of the tomb was suddenly pushed open, and an embarrassed figure ran in, Xia Yanru reacted quickly and was about to chop the tooth knife in her hand, the tooth knife was about to hit the other party's head, she suddenly saw the other party's appearance, the tooth knife temporarily changed direction, and it was able to cut off a piece of the other party's hair.
"How did you get here? Is there an empty coffin over there? Yu Feng also saw that this person was Donglin, and he didn't know what the other party had encountered, so he was embarrassed.
"All you found were empty coffins?" Dong Lin took a step back with palpitations, he didn't expect Xia Yanru's vigilance to be so heavy, and her shot was as fast as lightning, so he would become the soul of the other party's knife.
"It's all empty, how did you do this?" Yu Feng shook his head and did not hide it.
Sighing deeply, Donglin said weakly, "I encountered a trap, I got it when I was dodging, and I encountered that kind of lice beetle on the way to find you." ”
"Then let's go to the other passages?" Yu Feng proposed.
"No need to go, I looked at them one by one, there are only these three in the tomb, and the others are not." Donglin shook his head, he was efficient, and after finding that the tomb he went to was empty, he immediately went to other passages to check, but he found nothing.
"Could it be that we are mistaken, this dungeon is actually not the Red Eye King's." Yu Feng said.
"The underground palace is indeed the Red Eye King's, but this may not be his real mausoleum, or it may be a trick he has laid out." Donglin is very sure that this is the location marked on the map of the tomb of the Red Eye King, as for why there is no coffin for him, it is only possible that this is just a virtual tomb and a suspected coffin, not a real tomb underground palace.
