268. Ice pools in the burial chamber
This time, with the guidance of the map, the group walked very smoothly.
I was also nervous.
Acting in the cramped and dark tombs, the environment itself will feel very depressing, and on the other hand, they will inevitably think about a fatal question - whether the male snake man was blown up.
If you are killed by those detonators, of course it is good. If they hadn't been killed, they would have to face the deadly danger. At this time, whether they can leave before being found by the male snake people is a very, very important question.
Lu Qing personally thinks that the detonator may not be able to kill the male snake man.
After all, bullets are useless.
But it should still be seriously injured.
Although the four of them consciously accelerated their speed, Lu Qing, Yue Qingyi and Jian Fuyu were injured and couldn't keep walking, so they needed to stop and rest after walking for a while, and then continue.
Mu Qi was the only one who was safe and sound, but he was also really carrying Qin Jiu on his back, and he also stopped and stopped.
Finally, when they were about to be exhausted, they finally found their destination without danger.
"That's it."
Lu Qing compared the copied map, and then held a flashlight to shine it forward, confirming that it was correct.
The others breathed a sigh of relief and hurried over.
At the end of the corridor, there was a closed stone door, and there were stone statues on each side of the door, not a lion and a tiger guarding the door, but the image of a human face and a snake body.
Yue Qingyi couldn't help but complain: "What's the matter? Is the tomb owner so fond of snake people? I've never seen anyone use a snake man to guard the door. ”
"Then you see it now."
Lu Qing stepped forward as he spoke, and saw that there was a pattern carved on the Shimen Gate, and groped a little bit to look at it.
Later, Jian Fuyu helped Mu Qi put down Qin Jiu, let people lean against the wall, and then came over to help Lu Qing illuminate.
Jian Fuyu said: "The door can only be opened if there is a mechanism, right?" ”
"Organs? Where is the mechanism in this place? ”
Yue Qingyi looked left and right, groping around to check.
Lu Qing finished reading all the contents on the stone gate and found that this was a complete worship map, and the general content was that many people below were worshipping in the same direction, and the snake man at the top was also facing that direction.
It looked like snake people were showing them the direction of worship.
Snake people?
Instructions?
Lu Qing immediately looked at the snake figures on both sides, and it happened that Yue Qingyi couldn't find them everywhere, so he had already set his eyes on the snake figures.
At a glance, Yue Qingyi was surprised: "This snake man is still a squint." ”
"So is the snake man."
Mu Qi, who was sitting on the ground and relieved, pointed to the other side and said.
But on closer inspection, there are differences. The snake man on the left squints to the right, and the snake man on the right squints to the left.
Lu Qing and Jian Fuyu glanced at each other, Jian Fuyu nodded, and walked to the other one.
Lu Qingdao: "You try, can you push the stone statues, or turn them, move in the direction of their squint." ”
"Such a large stone statue...... Let's move it?? ”
Yue Qingyi compared the height of the stone statue, which was nearly two meters.
She: "...... Are you kidding, or are you overestimating our current strength? ”
After all, Yue Qingyi is still obedient.
Just listen to the boom, don't say it, the stone statue can be turned, but the stone statue is too heavy, Yue Qingyi only moved a little.
"Sister Yue, I'll help you."
Mu Qi got up from the ground and went over with Yue Qingyi to push the stone statue hard, using all the strength of his body to push it up.
Lu Qing went to help Jian Fuyu.
They worked even harder, and finally pushed more than half of it, and they had to come over to help after Mu Qi pushed it all away.
When the two stone statues were removed, they were revealed, and both were concave square holes, with an iron ring inside, and the attached iron chains went deep into the ground.
The four of them pulled out the chain together, and the stone door finally opened with a bang.
"Great, finally able to get in!"
Mu Qi's eyes lit up, and he ran to the stone gate without thinking, staring at the slowly opening stone gate.
Lu Qing shook off the dust on his hands and said, "Get ready, be careful when you go in......"
The next moment, Lu Qing's ears moved slightly.
There was a sound of breaking through the door, like something sharp coming out.
At the same time, Yue Tsing Yi was also discovered.
"Dangerous!"
Between the lightning and flint, Lu Qing directly kicked Mu Qi towards the wall with a horizontal kick, and he pushed Jian Fuyu violently and retreated.
The farther away Tsing Yi is, the more timely it is to avoid.
"Whoosh!"
The four of them suddenly looked up, and saw dozens of cold arrows sinking into the place where they were standing.
The force is so strong that the tail of the arrow is still shaking due to inertia.
Mu Qi's face turned pale.
If it weren't for Lu Qing's time, he would have been stabbed into a hedgehog!
"Sister Lu, thank you...... Thank you......" Mu Qi stammered.
Lu Qing stood up with his eyebrows twisted, rummaged through his bag, and finally simply tore off a piece of clothing with a dagger and wrapped the flashlight that had been scrapped before.
Then he asked Yue Tsing Yi to use a lighter to light his clothes, and threw them hard into the door.
By the temporary light of the fire, the four of them only vaguely saw that the space inside was huge, and the place illuminated from the door was empty.
After waiting for a few seconds, Jian Fuyu said, "There is no other danger, you can go in." ”
When Mu Qi heard this, he immediately got up and went over to carry Qin Jiu.
Yue Qingyi looked at him suspiciously: "Why do you mention it, you are more excited than us?" ”
Mu Qi blinked and said, "I can finally leave here, can I not be excited?" Besides, Sister Yue, didn't you say that it might have something to do with my ancestors? I'm finally able to get closer to the truth of the mystery! ”
Yue Qingyi looked at him again, and couldn't tell whether he believed it or not.
Seeing that Lu Qing and Jian Fuyu opened the way and walked inside, they also followed.
After entering, the flashlight shone around the perimeter, and when they saw the scene in the tomb, the four of them couldn't help but sigh in unison.
Their first thought was: spectacular.
The burial chamber was five or six times larger than the previous ones, and the walls were full of reliefs and frescoes, supported by five huge columns on each side. Moreover, there was no open space between the columns on both sides and the wall, but a pool about three or four meters wide and about ten meters long, and the water in the pool was already frozen, and a faint mist lingered on the ice surface, making it even more difficult for them to see the pool.
Probably because of the ice pools on both sides, the temperature in the burial chamber was extremely low.
Even if the four of them were dressed thickly, they were a little shivering from the cold.
"Hey, what's there?"
Mu Qi glanced at it and suddenly saw something by the pool. There seems to be a pool on both sides.
The open space in the middle is a few steps higher than the sides.
Lu Qing walked to the left, and Jian Fuyu went to the right.
Yue Qingyi was just about to go over, but was stopped by Mu Qi pitifully; "Sister Yue, I'm carrying Qin Jiu on my back, it's inconvenient to put it down, don't leave me alone, I'm afraid."
"Look at your guts." Yue Qingyi stopped speechlessly, and had to raise his voice to ask, "What is the pool side?" ”
Lu Qing walked down the steps, shining a flashlight with a flashlight, and his expression became solemn.
Her voice rang out at the same time as Jian Fuyu's.
"It's people."
"Dead people, to be exact."
