Chapter 24: The Cliff Arm

I shone my flashlight at the wall and squinted for a long time.

That's when you see it.

There was a living man nailed to the wall with iron nails, or rather, it was no longer a living man, but a living dead.

The man's body was already decomposing, and there were dense corpse spots on his body.

The man's chest and legs were hammered with soul-fixing nails, and he stared at the cliff wall.

And the person's head and arms can move at will.

His arms were positioned just right to reach the edge of the cliff and reach some distance upwards.

The reason why Cui Hao was almost pulled down before was because the arm at the edge grabbed his leg, which caused Cui Hao to have an accident.

Cui Hao had already crawled behind me, and he saw that I was staring blankly below, so he also followed my gaze.

After seeing the corpse staring at the cliff, Cui Hao couldn't help but be shocked and complained.

"God, how can the people under this earth be so cruel that they actually nail the corpse to the wall. There must be the living dead on this wall! ”

I nodded, withdrew my flashlight, and stopped looking.

These living dead are similar to zombies with no intelligence, and the only purpose of their existence is to scratch and bite.

Usually these things are made and used to suppress the tomb guards.

They were never interested in dead things.

But these things are very sensitive to light, and the same is true for people.

Whenever someone passes, they scratch and scratch, eager to bite on the person's body.

It was precisely because these living dead were nailed to the wall that the two of us were not hit just now.

If we had just taken it lightly, we would probably have been caught by them on the cliff wall and eaten clean.

I withdrew my gaze and quickly crawled up the edge of the slate.

It is not helpful to look too much.

I'll need to get inside the palace as soon as possible to check on the situation.

Cui Hao also followed behind me, crawling up quickly.

The two of us made it to the top at breakneck speed.

I came to the top of the flat top and quickly untied the rope, and Cui Hao followed closely behind and sat down on the ground with me.

I had just climbed on it so hard that I didn't feel scared.

Now back on the ground, my legs are shaking, soft like two noodles.

Cui Hao is not much better than me.

The two of us just lay limp on the flat roof, looking up at the stone wall above.

This underground space is extremely high, and I shined a flashlight upwards and saw a familiar view.

Above my head was the stone bridge.

At this time, there are still corpses wandering around the edge.

I reached out and pointed.

"Cui Hao, why didn't we see this building down there before? Above our heads is the scene in the door of death that we encountered when we went down to the tomb for the first time, and you can see if the Yin-Yang Bridge is on our heads. ”

Cui Hao looked up in the direction of my finger, and his eyes were also dark.

"No wonder I don't feel like there's a bottom in sight."

Cui Hao raised his feet and looked down.

"You say, let's go down further, will the bottom place be the dark river?"

My pupils shrank, and I thought it was not impossible to guess.

The two of us looked at each other, and neither of us spoke again.

After another half a moment's rest, the two of us got up and walked directly in the direction of the palace.

Enough rest, now we need to take a good look at what's in there.

I dragged Cui Hao to the front of the palace.

It is magnificent, and the palace is very much like the ancient emperor's bedroom.

Among them, there are countless carved beams and painted buildings, pavilions and pavilions.

The extravagant architectural decoration of the place shows the extravagance of the decoration.

Even I could clearly see that the two emerald green trees standing in front of the door were actually carved from jade.

The trunk of the tree is coiled with gold thread, which is wound with gold wire to form a bone, and bent to make the shape of a branch.

At the end edge of the branch, the leaves are made of emerald green jade, and they are wrapped around the top of the branch one by one.

These two trees alone are worth a fortune.

Seeing the two jade treasure trees in front of him, Cui Hao couldn't walk anymore.

He reached out and carefully played around with the tree, not knowing how the guy did it, and after a few moments he got a few leaves.

He held the emerald green leaves in front of his eyes, and after a long time, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Little Manye, why don't you go in by yourself, my goal is already there. Let me tell you, I will tear down all these two trees and take them out for a sum of money. ”

He stared at the tree with some regret.

"The key can be driven in under the ground to dig the excavator, and I will dig up the whole tree now and take it out, this is too magnificent, how can anyone live such a luxurious and luxurious life?"

"Fatty, you dream in broad daylight, right?"

If this thing actually plucks everything from the leaves, it won't be worth much.

When the time comes, he will go out with a jade leaf, and he will not sell much.

I stopped Cui Hao, grabbed his arm and walked in the direction of the palace.

"Eh, don't drag me, you let me tear the leaves here, don't move!"

Taking advantage of my lack of vigilance, Cui Hao reached out and plucked a few leaves at the top of the canopy.

I only felt ashamed and quickly dragged him towards the palace gates.

"Don't do it, it's useless. If you think about it, if you take this thing out, it's just some carved jade leaves, and you won't be able to sell it for much money. What are you doing with all that effort? There are such big treasures at the door, there must be finished products in them, isn't it better for you to go in with me than if you stay here? ”

Cui Hao was moved by what I said, hesitated for a moment and then stopped, silently chasing after me.

"It seems to make sense, then I'll go in with you."

As he spoke, he smiled and chased me through the gate of the palace.

The palace is towering, and there are even auspicious clouds on both sides.

The auspicious clouds are also carved out of stone and hover around the perimeter of the palace, and the whole palace seems to be in the clouds.

Cui Hao couldn't help but be shocked by the scale of this palace, and couldn't help but pull my arm tightly.

"It's amazing, I want to move the whole palace now."

I didn't bother to talk to him, so I dragged him to the palace gate as quickly as I could.

I took a breath and turned to look at Cui Hao.

"There can be danger inside, you step back and try to be careful."

Cui Hao moved out of the way of the distance of nearly a meter.

Once I had confirmed the way to retreat, I pushed the door open with a hard hand.

I ducked to the side, dodging the oncoming mechanism.

But I'm thinking too much.

When the door opened, it was pitch black and there was no sound.

Confused, I took out my flashlight and took a picture of the center of the hall.

The whole palace is gorgeous, with a variety of tables and chairs, and there are even huge banana fans carved in stone on both sides of the front.

A dragon chair is set up in the center of the main hall.

At this time, a pitch-black figure was sitting on the dragon chair.

Because the location was too far away, the range of light could not reach enough, so I couldn't see the face of this thing clearly. But I can clearly feel that this is a human form.

Cui Hao obviously saw the figure above the dragon chair as well.

He took a breath and silently leaned into my ear.

"What the hell is this? Is there an author and a living person in this? ”

As he spoke, he looked behind us unconfidently.

"Or is there a living dead sitting in here, exactly like the ones nailed to the walls outside?"

I shook my head and was noncommittal.

I don't know what's inside, so I can't speculate just yet.

But I know it's definitely extremely dangerous stuff.

After thinking about it, I tugged on Cui Hao's arm.

"Cui Hao, the two of us are one left and one right, I will step forward half a meter before you, and then I will go and see what is on this dragon chair."

I solemnly handed the dagger into his hand.

"You stand behind me with a weapon, and if something else attacks from behind, then you fight back in time. If I need support, you can come and help me out. ”

The soldiers will block, and the water will cover the earth.

It's all here, and I'm not going to retreat back.

Seeing my resolute attitude, Cui Hao could only nod and agree.

He silently followed me with his dagger in his hand.

I took the bridge in great stride and walked into the palace.

I held up my flashlight and looked around.

Above the main hall, the surrounding corners are all filled with colorful terracotta figurines.

These terracotta figurines and others are tall, and the expressions on their faces are carved so lifelike that they are exactly like living people.

They made all sorts of movements, bowing modestly to the figure on the dragon chair above, looking extremely reverent.

With their movements.

The man above this dragon chair......

I couldn't help but tug Cui Hao tightly and took a step back.

"Don't go any further, retreat."

Cui Hao was startled by me and hurried to my side.

"What's going on? What happened? ”

I raised my flashlight and pointed at the king above the dragon chair.

"See for yourself."

Cui Hao looked at the flashlight, and couldn't help but be clever.

"Didn't this thing just bow its head, or did we see it wrong? Why did he raise his head all of a sudden? ”

I stepped back half a meter and shook my head slightly.

"I don't know, I also lowered my head when I just looked at this guy, and I don't know when he raised his head."

I was terrified in my heart, and hurriedly grabbed Cui Hao's arm.

"Let's walk next to each other, and try not to confront this guy head-on."

I don't know why.

I had a vague premonition in my heart that I always felt like this guy in front of me was a living person.

And his eyes fell on the two of us, staring at us closely.

It seems to roll our eyes as we move.

I dragged Cui Hao to shine a flashlight at the king above, slowly moved to the right, walked to the side of the terracotta figurines carving, and stood behind the two ministers.

At this time, Cui Hao also noticed something unusual.

He pointed incredulously to the figure directly above him.

"Little Manye, are this guy's eyes moving?"
