Chapter 551: The Hanging Coffin Throne
"Knock knock knock knock." It was like the sound of striking iron coming from under the abyss, and the sound of 'dong dong ding' seemed to smash through everyone's hearts.
"Is there a living person down here?" The person who spoke was Yifeng's deputy Li Yi, but after finishing speaking, he shook his head violently to overturn the speculation just now, "No, this seems to be more the sound of iron and rock colliding." ”
"No matter what it is, just go down and see if you know, there are definitely no living people, I just don't know if there will be any other surprises." said that it was a surprise, but in fact, everyone was clear in their hearts, and the so-called surprise should be an allusion to the trap.
Once again, Yifeng and Qi Juan took the lead, Xia Yanru followed closely behind with Ji Wenlin's support, under this circular entrance was a stone staircase that extended downward, and it was dark all around, and the torches and flashlights could only open up a small piece of light, just in case, everyone walked firmly in the middle of the stone steps.
The further down they went, the sound of 'dong dong ding' became almost inaudible, and although everyone's hearts were full of doubts, no one spoke their doubts in this quiet space.
As the sound of striking iron gradually disappeared, after turning a corner, the sound of water drops and rocks suddenly sounded in my ears, and the stone steps finally reached the end, a not too long road, and the candles on the rock walls on both sides spontaneously combusted with the arrival of everyone.
The sound of water droplets is much clearer than before, but there is not the slightest water stain in the entire corridor, and the regular sound of water droplets is still clear, obviously the origin of the sound is not too far away from everyone.
There were no traps and no traps in the corridor, which made everyone's nervous hearts relax a little, and the corridor of less than ten meters was quickly completed, and a palace with an open gate came into view.
Different from the luxury of the underworld temple above, the underground palace in front of you is full of strong simplicity and solemnity.
"This is the real main hall, and the upper floor is more like a funeral hall." As the vanguard, Qi Juan took the lead in holding a torch to light the candlestick near the gate, and after a cursory look around, he came to this conclusion.
As the two candlesticks at the door were lit one by one, the other candlesticks in the hall instantly ignited spontaneously, and the whole space was not as dim as before, and the air exuded a light fragrance similar to sandalwood.
The main hall is rectangular, there are three connected round platforms on the ground facing the door, the height is less than half a meter, you can clearly see that there is a pattern similar to the word "swastika" carved on it, and there is a row of stone platforms on both sides of the round platform, the lower stone platform is hollow, and you can see that there is a clear pool water inside.
Perhaps it was a little far away, but everyone could see that there were two huge stone walls erected in front of the main hall, and it was not clear whether there were any patterns on the stone walls.
But these are not the most surprising, the most eye-catching is the huge throne, on the throne is a pair of conjoined people, one with a golden mask, the other with a silver mask, I don't know why, the moment they saw this pair of conjoined people, the words 'red-eyed king' suddenly popped up in everyone's minds.
"Look at the top of your heads!" It was still Yu Feng's shout, this guy seemed to be on every roof, and when others looked around, he always unconsciously looked up to observe the roof.
No matter how much everyone slandered in their hearts, they all looked up with this shout, only to see a huge bronze coffin suspended in the air by four thick metal chains, and the sense of oppression for no reason made many people swallow their saliva unconsciously.
"This is probably the largest bronze coffin I've ever seen in my life, right?" Yu Feng spoke again, saying that he had seen a lot of the market with Xia Yanru, and he had also experienced a lot of scenes of opening the coffin, but it was undeniable that the coffins in the past were all younger brothers than the one in front of him.
"Tsk, it is said that this is probably the tomb of the Red-Eyed King, and the scale of this bronze coffin looks like a joint burial coffin, but how can this explain the throne? Could it be that the coffin above the head is empty, or that the throne is a dummy? Qi Juan said with some puzzlement.
After all, he had followed Xia Yanru alone for a while, and he had also handled some information, so when he saw the conjoined man on the throne, he immediately thought of the tomb of the red-eyed king.
"Let's see." Ji Wenlin's heart was also full of questions, but the key to their trip was the Xia clan burial group, and it was a complete accident that they would come to this suspected real Red Eye King's Tomb Palace.
Leaving two people to guard the door, the rest of the people walked towards the throne together, as for the bronze coffin hanging in the air, no one proposed to touch it for the time being, after all, they are not real tomb robbers, and they will not open the coffin at will unless necessary.
When passing by the 'swastika' round platform, Xia Yanru subconsciously wanted to use her ability, but she only had this idea, and decisively dispelled it, her current mental state is too poor, although she is also very curious, but after all, reason prevails, but what she doesn't know is that sometimes curiosity can also be some kind of foreknowledge.
Let's go back to the conjoined people on the throne, and when the group bypassed the 'swastika' round platform and arrived at the throne, they really saw the situation of the conjoined people, a special bronze battle armor, even the two heads were wearing bronze helmets, and the two faces were covered by masks and could not be glimpsed, probably in a closed space for a long time, whether it was a bronze battle armor or a bronze helmet, it was still shiny.
Getting closer, I saw that the leftmost hand of the conjoined man held a scepter several feet high, and the rightmost hand held a single-edged long mace, and the other two hands were held high in front of his chest as if they were sealed, with the armor, even if he was just sitting on the throne, there was a soaring battle intent that hit people's hearts.
Because of the armor, everyone could only analyze that only the waist part of the conjoined person should coincide, and the rest of the body parts were undoubtedly the same as ordinary people, four hands and four legs, and two heads with bronze masks, which were the same as those that have been handed down about the Red Eye King.
"It's worthy of the red-eyed king who has been living in the legend, this is the main master, right? Sister Yan is still amazing, when she was in the White Republic of China, she guessed that the so-called 'red-eyed king' was the handiwork of Nian Qiusheng to fool people. Yu Feng hid the shock in his heart, and he had to say that when he saw the red-eyed king on the throne just now, a trace of horror did flash in his heart.
"Since this is the main one, the hanging coffin should be empty." Bai Que had not participated in this kind of action before, although he had heard of the organization of "elixir" many times, but many insiders still didn't know enough, so when he heard about Yu Feng's life at this time, he would be the first to come to the conclusion that the coffin was empty.
In fact, when they saw the hanging coffin and the throne at the beginning, many people's first reaction was the same as Bai Que's thoughts at the moment, either the hanging coffin above his head was empty, or the throne was not the main one, but he was as experienced as Xia Yanru, and his thoughts were more complicated.
At first, Xia Yanru also considered the situation of the empty coffin, but when passing by the 'swastika' round platform, Mo Ming felt that the possibility of an empty coffin was unlikely, and then when she saw the posture of the red-eyed king's seal, she believed that there must be something in the hanging coffin.
As if in response to Bai Finch's words, the hanging coffin shook suddenly, like a stone hitting a thousand waves, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
