Chapter 21: The Quicksand Tomb
I opened my mouth to remind Xu Jinxiu to be ready for the accident at any time, and the two of us slowly retreated to the base of the wall, and I observed the situation on the hanging coffin.
"You see, the drawing paper around these four places is pasted all over the place."
Xu Jinxiu looked along the place where I went, and there was painting paper everywhere around the blue iron-colored hanging coffin, and after looking carefully, Xu Jinxiu frowned slightly.
"Chen Fan, do you think those will be the maids who were sacrificed?"
I don't dare to confirm this, after all, the identity of these sacrifices can be anyone, and once people have some kind of deep obsession, they will do things that ordinary people can't understand.
Just like the tomb in this place, there are sacrifices in the place where the body is buried, and only the people of the Shang Dynasty will have the habit of sacrificing ghosts and gods, but this kind of sacrifice method is obviously not used to sacrifice the heirs of the gods.
The weirdness must be full of weird clues, and I think that the secret of the hanging coffin can't be dissected rashly for the time being.
From the surrounding point of view, the biggest suspicion is the hanging corpse, and the coffin suspended in the sky, only by figuring out the order can we touch the final secret, otherwise once there is a problem, rely on temporary thinking to solve it, which is not realistic at all!
"Chen Fan, do you see anything?"
Seeing that I hadn't spoken for so long, Xu Jinxiu on the side took the initiative to ask.
I shook my head silently, looking a little solemn.
"Not yet, but I'm wondering something, look at the red clothes on it."
I pointed over, Xu Jinxiu looked up again in confusion, looked left and right, and didn't find any problems.
"Tell me what's wrong with seeing the hell? If you let me look at it that way, I probably won't be able to find a problem for a long time. ”
The corners of my mouth twitched, and I motioned for Xu Jinxiu to look at the top of the red clothes.
It doesn't matter, Xu Jinxiu's pupils suddenly constricted, I'm afraid I'm stupid, I can also find the clues!
"This! Is this floating? How? ”
Xu Jinxiu carefully circled around, and as far as the eye could see, the fluttering red clothes did not have any fulcrum to float at all.
In this world, there is absolutely no rope thinner than a hair, and even if there is, it can be observed under the action of strong light and reflection.
In the meantime, we even picked up broken bones on the ground and threw them at the top of the red coat, and there was no silk thread at the top at all!
"Chen Fan, have you ever thought about something?"
"What?"
Xu Jinxiu's eyes were a little uncalm, and she pointed to the red clothes at the top.
"Do you ever feel that no matter what direction we are heading, the neckline of the clothes, that is, the front, will always be facing our direction?"
I was slightly stunned, the windless automatic clothes just now seemed to be facing his direction, is this a coincidence?
To confirm this suspicion, I tried to move in other directions, and my eyes were fixed on the red robe.
As I moved to the far right side of the chamber, my throat couldn't help but squirm a little, as the red clothes slowly moved with me!
The front of the dress is facing me!
I quickly looked to the left and right, and thought to myself, if only I could activate the yin and yang eyes at this time, at least I could see clearly what was noble.
"I ...... I'm right, do you think we're going to bump into something evil? ”
I frowned and immediately vetoed it.
"Don't think about it! These people are very thieves, and the more thoughtful people are, the more easily they are deceived. ”
Xu Jinxiu subconsciously leaned close to me, and she was still a little hairy about this unknown and sensitive thing.
"I think the secret should be on this hanging coffin, if there is really a grievance, presumably the owner of this red coat is likely to be the maid next to the owner of the tomb, and the relationship is not ordinary."
In order to confirm my suspicion, I made up my mind and handed the flashlight to Xu Jinxiu.
She looked at me quizzically.
"What are you going to do here?"
"I'm going up to take a look at the physical situation, maybe the secret of this red coat is on the hanging coffin, maybe we can dig up more secrets!"
Listening to my decision, Xu Jinxiu suddenly changed dramatically.
"Chen Fan, are you crazy! Now I don't know what the situation is, you have to go up, and we don't have a lot of equipment, what if you run into some evil zongzi? ”
I grinned and thanked him, discovering secrets without exploring them would leave a pimple in my heart.
"Don't worry, I have a number, in case you run into something dangerous, you run first, and I'll give you some later."
Seeing my evil smile, Xu Jinxiu couldn't help but glance at his mouth.
"Shhhh Don't shout for help at Miss Ben when the time comes. ”
I laughed secretly, what if this little aunt and grandmother didn't make fun and shouted twice for help?
Thinking of the previous imbalance in order to protect her body temperature, that posture is really a little nostalgic.
To be honest, I regret it, what kind of wind did I have in my head at that time? It's cheap and doesn't take advantage of it, isn't this a turtle bastard?
I didn't think much about it, I was going to take a look to find a place to climb, but fortunately, the position of the hanging coffin was not too high, and there were extended sideburns on both sides, and the triangular shape of the place was just right to climb with the help of me.
I jumped and grabbed it with one hand, but the moment I grabbed it, the hanging coffin sank down like a scale!
"Click!!"
This crunch sound was exceptionally clear in such a quiet environment, and it was at this moment that my heart chuckled.
"It's over! I've hit a trap somewhere! ”
Immediately after that, the sound of "rustling ......" came, like quicksand in a funnel.
I hurriedly landed and looked in all directions, and there were a lot of fine sands flowing from the rectangular openings around me, and I could clearly feel that the ground where we were was sinking!
"Oops! You've hit a trap. ”
Xu Jinxiu shouted, and hurriedly looked for a way out when he came before, the situation was not right, so he had to withdraw first to avoid danger.
But just as we ran towards the exit, the vibration frequency under our feet deepened, the speed of the tomb sinking increased dramatically, and the exit when we came was completely blocked!
The only escape was sealed, and my heart thumped.
Looking at the water and sand left in all directions, I don't have to think about it to guess that this quicksand tomb is here! The owner of the tomb wanted to bury the intruder alive through the quicksand.
"Damn! I didn't expect to be put on the table! ”
I cursed and looked around for an exit to escape.
