Eternal Sand Sea Chapter 47: Bright Light
Continuing to the topic, I asked Chen Laogou how he planned to deal with this cat, it was different from the monster that had cultivated to become like this, it was only after taking medicine that it became like this.
Chen Laogou said that whether it is a person or an animal, coming back from the dead is stiff, and to deal with this kind of thing is to use a corpse bag, he took out a black triangle from the bag, and I saw at a glance that this was originally used to deal with the cat-faced fox corpse in Panjialing.
"Why did you pull it out of the fox's mouth?" I subconsciously wiped my nose and felt a little nauseous.
"It's all rewarded, what are you going to do with it? Wouldn't it come in handy if you did it before you came. As he spoke, Old Dog Chen cut out a small piece of it and handed it to me, asking me to find a way to stuff it into the rotten cat's mouth.
Our group touched the fork in the road again, but when we reached the hanging coffin, the cat was gone.
"Did you run out?" I looked confused.
At that moment, a dark figure jumped down from the hanging coffin, pounced on me, and scratched a few more holes in my face.
I put my hand on the cat's belly and pushed it forward so hard that it hit the wall of the coffin.
If it is said that an ordinary cat is hit by this force, it either stumbles to the ground or runs away, but it quickly turns over, hooks the coffin with its sharp claws, kicks up a few steps, and jumps to the top of the coffin.
Without waiting for a moment to rest, it pounced again, and this time it saw through its movements, and the strong son directly stabbed the military knife into its body, and the tip of the knife pierced directly through the back.
The cat fell to the ground again and took a few steps back, and the blood in its body quickly reacted with the blade, and the handle of the knife fell down with a loud sound, and the blade had been melted by the blood.
"It is said that cats have nine lives, and this one is estimated to have nine hundred, so it's all right." Everyone was also shocked that this dead cat was more fierce than an invulnerable dung bird.
Just as it was about to move forward and continue its attack, I threw a small body refuge bag handed to me by Chen Lao Dog in the direction of the hanging coffin, and it slammed up like a spring, took the body refuge into its mouth and threw it to the ground.
The guy was tricked, and saw him put the body sac in his mouth and gnawed it, and after a while, his limbs gradually stiffened and he couldn't move, and he fell straight to the ground.
Perhaps it was the corpse sac that reacted in its body, and a puff of black smoke emanated from its body, and before it could be done, the rotten cat was melted by its own blood, and even the bones were left into a puddle of foam.
After I recovered, I felt a hot pain on my face, but fortunately, Tong Xiaowan brought some wound cream to help me wipe the wound, otherwise my handsome face would probably be wasted.
"Why is there nothing here?" Hadron kicked the lid of the coffin open with his foot, and it was indeed empty.
This situation was really beyond my expectations, I thought there would be some device hidden in it, but I didn't see it.
"Don't pretend if you don't understand, how much time has this delayed, Li Gou's remaining life is almost gone!" Zhao Xudong stood in front of me and mocked, at this time my mind was blank and I didn't bother to pay attention to him, I really couldn't figure out what the meaning of this rotten cat and the hanging coffin was here.
Qiangzi and I ran to the end of the fork in the road again and searched carefully, but still did not find any clues, this time it may have been really smashed, and it was a waste of time to be clever, and this precious time is likely to be the hope of mastering Li Gou's remaining life and death.
"Don't pay attention to that calf, we can't do this face-losing thing, even if we dig it, we have to dig a way out." Hadron patted me on the shoulder and said.
I walked back to the hanging coffin with some loss, everyone knew what the result was when they saw my expression, and they didn't ask more, I stared blankly at this strange coffin, what mystery did it hide?
"Huazi, look!" Then the strong son stretched out his finger and pointed at the iron chain and shouted, and I saw that the top of the chain was not dead to the top of the tomb, but through the four small holes in the top of the tomb.
I understood what Hadron meant, and I tried to pull the hanging coffin down with him, but as the hanging coffin sank down, the chain dragged out of the hole.
"Use your strength to slaughter pigs!" I shouted excitedly, and the two of us jumped up and slammed the coffin to the ground.
At this time, the roof of the tomb began to make some strange sounds, like the sound of red-hot iron tongs pouring into cold water, and then the color changed from yellow to dark, and the layers of walls began to peel off and fall, and finally a large piece fell with a bang, and the iron chain that locked the hanging coffin and a long ladder fell to the ground from the peeling wall.
After a piece of dust dissipated, it was found that the top of the chain was linked to each other, forming a square grid, and the reason why the top of the tomb collapsed a small piece was most likely that there were some drug devices on the upper layer of the tomb that could corrode the tomb roof, and once the chain was dragged and touched, the device would be activated, causing it to penetrate into the tomb roof and produce a corrosive reaction.
How bold and prolific people are, this hidden mechanism hidden on the top of the tomb is indeed beyond my fixed thinking, we are limited to longitudinal search but subjectively ignore other possibilities, such a wonderful mechanism design I probably didn't even think of Lao Tong.
"Boy, learn a little, this is called another village, let's teach you a vivid lesson!" Qiangzi sarcastically said to Zhao Xudong, and also dragged the words.
When the strong son threw the burning matchstick into it, a flame came out, and the flame rushed all the way down from the burning platform, like a fire dragon quickly burning into a circular fire belt, illuminating the place clearly, and under the firelight, a magnificent large burial hall immediately came into view.
Around the tomb stood eight sarcophagi connected by iron cables, on which the head of a lizard was painted, and in front of us there was a larger sarcophagus, the walls of the coffin were carved with the totem of the lizard-headed human body, and below the sarcophagus was a triple hexagonal grooved belt with flowing silver liquid, and behind the sarcophagus was a stone bridge, on both sides of the stone bridge stood majestic lion-shaped sculptures, and at the end of the stone bridge was a large closed stone door.
"Looks like this is the main burial chamber!" Lao Tong sighed, after a lot of hardships, it is finally worth the trip, and the few of us who survived are witnessing an unexplored tomb and an ununderstood civilization.
"Don't go over, this mercury is highly poisonous!" Zhao Xudong was just about to step his foot through a dark groove when Lao Tong called back.
"After such a long period of exposure, the toxicity of mercury has also evaporated, and the purpose of this design may not be to prevent tomb robbers, but rather a link, a link that is essential to achieve a certain purpose." Professor Yang didn't listen to Lao Tong's words, and walked directly over the mercury to the sarcophagus, and there was no special reaction.
In the Jin Dan chapter of "Seeking the Mountain and Fixing the Coffin", it is said that "gold and mercury are in the nine orifices, and the dead are immortal", this triple mercury belt is not only to disperse poison, but also to be used for embalming. "Old Dog Chen said that if this mercury is still poisonous, we will already be poisoned when we come up.
"Come here...... Come here! Tong Xiaowan looked at me and beckoned.
I don't know which one she was singing, so I could just walk up to her and see what she had to say.
"Is this hole in the top for your beads?" She pointed to the standing coffin in front of her.
There was a circular hole in the coffin, and I immediately pulled out the red beads for comparison, which were just the size to fit the beads in.
But at this time, I didn't dare to touch these antiquities for fear of touching some hidden weapons, so I walked to the other coffins to look, it was really strange, the other seven coffins were placed in the holes, only the place where Tong Xiaowan was standing was empty, could it be that my beads were really taken out of here? Did someone else enter before we arrived?
"Comrade Xiaowan, what are you studying? Let's discuss it together? Qiangzi walked up to Tong Xiaowan and said with a smile, before Xiaowan could speak, the tomb suddenly trembled violently, and the beads in my hand rolled down to Qiangzi's feet.
"It's okay! Maybe there's a track on it, and the train just passes by! Lao Tong comforted everyone and said.
"You say this old thing is just not reliable, and the beads are falling out." Qiangzi reached out and picked up the red bead on the ground, and was about to put it in the sarcophagus recess in front of him.
"Don't put it in!"
"What?"
As soon as I opened my mouth, he had already stuffed the whole bead into the hole, and this sarcophagus, along with the other seven, shot out of the beads at the same time, and shone on the large coffin in the middle, the large sarcophagus was like a refractor, and all the light gathered into a dazzling bright light, which shot straight into the sky.
