Chapter 552: Black Water Seals the Road
The sudden shaking of the hanging coffin made everyone frightened. At this moment, they were not only worried about the hanging coffin, but also worried about what terrifying movements the red-eyed king on the throne would make.
There is a way to come to whatever you are afraid of, although you are fully vigilant from the moment you come in, but the accident is not something you can avoid if you are prepared, just like the black water that swarms out from the cracks in the floor tiles in front of you.
They were wary of the throne because of the hanging coffin, but they didn't expect that the red-eyed king in battle armor didn't happen unexpectedly, but it was the black water under their feet that caught them off guard.
This black water has a foul smell, not to mention that it is also corrosive, except for the stone objects that are not affected, once the soles of the shoes are stained with black water, they can instantly corrode a black hole.
"Quick, hide on the round platform first, this black water is too corrosive, put on the mask to prevent poisoning." As soon as the black water came out, Ji Linlin helped Xia Yanru to find a safe point, and when he saw that the black water had no effect on stone objects, he took a good look at a few dodge points, and after a quick analysis, he determined the three 'swastika' round platforms.
The speed under everyone's feet is fast, and occasionally in order to avoid the black water, they will jump and jump funny, but at this time, no one is in the mood to care whether the movements are funny or not, the black water bubbled out, and soon soaked most of the ground.
Fortunately, this accident did not cause heavy casualties, the most serious thing is that there are a few people's shoes basically scrapped, the shoes are gone, it's okay, it's a big deal to use clothes to replace the role of shoes, but if the skin is stuck with black water, I want to know what will happen.
The swastika round platform is not high from the ground, so everyone climbed up quickly without much effort, and the area of the three round platforms is not small, but it still seems a little crowded when so many people come up at one time.
Once there is congestion, they naturally can't be very thoughtful, and they can't avoid stepping on each other, but they are more concerned about successfully getting out of the Blackwater crisis than a few small accidents.
And it is these small accidents that are not taken seriously that will happen one after another, and because they originally chose to directly explore the throne, they didn't know much about this 'swastika' round platform, so whatever happened next was actually not an accident.
There was a faint 'click', drowned out in a slightly noisy conversation, and no one noticed that a mechanism on the swastika was triggered, until the hanging coffin shook again, and this time it continued to shake, accompanied by the sound of chains rattling.
"The hanging coffin is falling!" I don't know who found out about the situation first, and an exclamation came from the team.
In fact, even if this person didn't remind him, everyone's attention would have been attracted by the constantly shaking hanging coffin and the rattling chains, but at this time the ground was full of black water, and they had nowhere to go.
Seeing that the hanging coffin stopped less than half a meter away from the 'swastika' round platform, everyone's hearts seemed to stop beating, and then the hanging coffin, which was still shaking just now, suddenly quieted down again, including the chains that were still rumbling at the last moment.
"You, look, has the red-eyed king on the throne grown taller?" Another exclamation was heard, with a trilling voice in his voice.
"Fart, that's not getting taller, that's standing up!" Qi Juan immediately followed a burst of drinks, and then without thinking about it, he took a weapon in front of Li Ji Wenlin and Xia Yanru.
"Stand, stand, stand up?" Although one of Qi Ju's subordinates was terrified, he still clenched his weapon and came to Qi Juan's side.
At this moment, there were more than one people who were full of questions and panic, except for those who had followed Xia Yanru on an adventure, those who had come into contact with the expedition for the first time, even if they had experienced a lot of crises before, they could not compare to everything that happened in front of them.
Thinking that just now they were still standing in front of the throne and commenting on the red-eyed king, but they didn't think that in a blink of an eye, they had been determined to be dead, and the ancient corpse that had been dead for thousands of years suddenly stood up, who was not afraid of this unbelievable situation?
"It's okay, everyone stand up and hold their weapons firmly, don't panic, it's easy to make mistakes if you panic." Yifeng calmed down, and began to loudly comfort his companions, he, like Qi Juan, was the protector for the first time after the accident.
Yifeng's reassurance was quite useful, the emotions of the team members slowly eased, in fact, they also knew that no matter how scared they were, it was useless, the red-eyed king would not sit back because they were afraid, and the hanging coffin would not return to its original position.
And Xia Yanru, who did not panic at all in the face of all these changes, was reflecting on how she touched the Blackwater Mechanism, as for the descent of the hanging coffin, she was not sure if it was because of the Blackwater Mechanism, but the situation that the Red-Eyed King suddenly stood up must be related to the hanging coffin.
Thinking back to the short time in front of the throne just now, Xia Yanru firmly believed that something must have been missed, the layout of the entire hall was very simple, everything could be seen, if there was anything weird, it would not be ignored.
Because of thinking and unconsciously drooping eyes, as soon as she touched the word "swastika" on the round platform, she instantly blessed her heart, before she felt that the shape of the seal of the red eye king's hands was somewhat familiar, combined with the "swastika" word round platform, the previous uncertainties have the final answer.
"It looks like the coffin is going to be opened again." Originally, she really didn't have the idea of opening the coffin, Xia Yanru thought that she was not here to rob the tomb, even if every time she went to the tomb to explore before, she would always open the coffin for many unavoidable reasons.
"Then let's go!" Ji Wenlin didn't have any idea about this, whether or not to open the coffin was a trivial matter for him to do or not, but as long as Xia Yanru opened her mouth to be sure, then everything was based on Xia Yanru's decision.
As the two bigwigs made a decision, the rest of the team members didn't say a word, it was Old Bart, who had been standing silently in the corner, and his lowered eyes were also shining with joy at the moment.
It's just that the ground is covered with black water, judging by the naked eye, the black water has at least reached the height of the ankle, and although the hanging coffin has dropped to the level of the 'swastika' round platform, there is still a distance of half a meter between them.
Those with long legs can also cross the hanging coffin with a big stride, but no one knows the load-bearing capacity of the four chains, even if the chains are strong enough, then people are standing on the hanging coffin, how to open the lid?
Obviously, something that can be done in front of him, but because of many concerns, no one took the initiative to say what to do for a while, until Qi Juan took the initiative to ask for a first visit to the hanging coffin, and maybe he could find a way to do it once and for all.
