Chapter 554: Breaking the Coffin and Taking Things
"Remember that seal gesture from the Red-Eyed King?" Xia Yanru walked on the round platform, her eyes were like torches, and her words seemed to be a little careless, but listening to Ji Wenlin's ears was the most important information.
"Yifeng, give me the monocular." Ji Wenlin only thought about it for a moment before he remembered the special seal gesture of the Red-Eyed King, but out of caution, he still asked Yifeng for a telescope to confirm.
Due to a series of previous changes, the Red Eye King also changed from a sitting position to a standing position, although everyone didn't know how to do it, after all, it was an ancient corpse that had been dead for thousands of years, but in ancient times, the mechanism was profound and profound, and it was not impossible to achieve this change from sitting to standing.
Of course, the abnormality of the Red-Eyed King's body is not the point, the key is whether his gestures with a pair of knots have changed, which is the key to Ji Wenlin's need for a monocular.
Fortunately, through the confirmation of the monocular, the gesture of the seal is still the same, so that Xia Yanru's conjecture is more accurate, and there must be a close relationship between the seal and the round table.
Xia Yanru's speculation is that the key to breaking the game lies in the hanging coffin, and the opening method of the hanging coffin is on the round platform, and the seal gesture of the red-eyed king is equivalent to a clue to break the game, a reminder to live to death.
There is no need to use any additional abilities, the round platform is limited by the area, so it didn't take long for Xia Yanru to find the key, and it was also because of this exploration that she accidentally discovered the mechanism that was inadvertently triggered, and this discovery immediately made everyone nervous.
"It must have been accidentally triggered in the previous panic, and it seems that it may be the mechanism that caused the hanging coffin to descend." Xia Yanru thought about it, the round platform was only brought up after the black water appeared, so this mechanism could only be triggered at that time.
This mechanism has been triggered silently, and instead of wasting time on the mechanism that has been opened, it is better to hurry up and explore the clues to break the game.
As the round platform was searched inch by inch, an anomaly was finally found in the center of the 'swastika' carving, and there was a lot of experience in cracking the mechanism, and this time it still didn't waste too much time.
In the center of the swastika, there is a small imperceptible square protrusion, which is easy to ignore because it is at the junction of the strokes of the swastika.
Xia Yanru didn't think about it, and directly pressed the square bulge, and then a collapsed groove appeared at the junction of the three round platforms, and the person who was far away from the two grooves subconsciously looked at it after a moment of tension, and saw the thick chain in the groove.
Knowing that it was two chains, Xia Yanru thought about it for a while, and then judged the key to it, and immediately ordered someone to pull the two chains outward.
Sure enough, as the two chains were pulled to the end, the hanging coffin not far away also fell to the ground, and the chains that were originally hanging from the hanging coffin were still tightly holding the coffin lid at this time, but the coffin lid at this time had been separated from the main body of the hanging coffin.
"It's done!" Yu Feng clapped his hands excitedly, and looked at Xia Yanru with a deep admiration and respect.
"Ahem, ahem, pass, let's go." Xia Yanru covered her mouth and coughed a few times, ignoring the adoring eyes of everyone, her tone was still indifferent.
Qi Juan was the closest person to the hanging coffin, and after the hanging coffin landed, he immediately took a look at the hanging coffin, and when he saw Xia Yanru coming over, he immediately informed him of the discovery one by one.
Seeing that there was an ebony coffin in the hanging coffin, Xia Yanru was not surprised, when she saw the hanging coffin, she guessed that there was more than one layer, and at this time, the outer coffin was opened, and there was another layer inside.
"Test it first and make sure it's okay before opening the coffin." For the sake of insurance, Xia Yanru did not immediately ask to open the coffin, even if the black water under the ground rose to a higher height, the necessary vigilance could not be forgotten.
The purpose of the test is very simple, that is, to see if there is any abnormality in the ebony coffin itself, and the things used for testing are also carried with you, which was taught by Tang Yulou a long time ago, a kind of Gu worm that can be raised with you, and it is the most suitable to detect poisons.
The Gu worm has always been carried by Tu Hongxing, not only because this Gu worm was passed on to him by Tang Yulou, but also because there is a blood relationship between Tu Hongxing and Tang Yulou, this Gu worm is relatively obedient in Tu Hongxing's hands.
After a series of tests are completed, Yu Feng couldn't wait to take out the candle, limited by the environment, the candle should have been placed in the southeast corner of the main hall, at this time it can only be reluctantly placed in the southeast corner of the round platform, after all, it is a form, although Yu Feng returned to the point, but after returning to light the candle, it did not necessarily have any effect, so it was just a comfort.
The others didn't have any opinions on this, this group of people was either inexperienced, or they didn't feel much about the custom of lighting wax in the southeast corner, so no matter how Yu Feng tossed, after it was determined that the coffin could be opened, Yifeng arranged for the four strong men to open the coffin.
There are no traps in the ebony coffin itself, as long as the crowbar is used correctly, the four strong men can lift the coffin lid with a little force.
Worried that there would be a hidden weapon such as a crossbow arrow in the coffin, the four of them obeyed the order to go around to the side and push the coffin lid, so that even if there was any hidden weapon in the coffin, it would not cause harm, of course, if other poisons were placed in the coffin, then it would only be left to fate.
Fortunately, there was no hidden weapon in this ebony coffin, and the poison was not found for the time being, but as the coffin lid was completely opened, a strange fragrance came out.
"It tastes so familiar." The fragrance spread too quickly, and everyone didn't react at the first time, but they felt that the smell was familiar.
"Cover your mouth and nose." Xia Yanru's face changed, this strange fragrance was clearly the same as the smell she had smelled when she was in the sea of flowers before, and a bad thought immediately flashed in her heart.
Vigilance was born, and before she could make any countermeasures, Xia Yanru found that her teammates, who were still elated, shrugged their heads one by one and fell into a fainting.
All these changes came so fast that Xia Yanru didn't have time to think too much, and in an instant, a sense of sleepiness hit her heart, no matter how she wanted to resist this sudden sleepiness, she still couldn't resist slowly closing her eyes.
And just before Xia Yanru fell into a coma, she vaguely saw Old Barth's smiling face with some gloom, and she was unconscious after scolding herself for being a fool.
"Come out!" Old Barth's voice was a little relieved, and the smile on his face was faint, not at all as bitter and bitter as before.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, and your skills have grown again." With the sound of speaking, a man with a long figure walked out from behind the throne, if Xia Yanru was awake, she would definitely recognize this person as Jinshang, who had crossed paths a few times.
"Each other, the next thing is left to you, my task has been completed, I hope you don't forget what you promised me." Old Bart said sarcastically, if it weren't for the fact that the other party was holding what he urgently needed, he would never have made a move easily.
"Nature." Jin Shang smiled slightly, raised his hand and waved, and the next moment a pair of people and horses appeared in the main hall, they wore special boots, they could ignore the corrosiveness of the black water and walk directly on the water, and after a while, they came to the round platform.
"Don't you regret it?" Watching Jin Shang's subordinates start to move, Old Bart suddenly asked a sentence without a beginning or an end.
"Nature." It's still these two words, but the meaning expressed is very different, Jin Shang put his eyes on Xia Yanru directly, and the cold two words make people unable to hear the slightest emotion.
