Volume 1: Yinshan Ghost Eye Chapter 025 Trap
At this point, I remembered the map I found in the kid's bag, and I might be able to find some clues. What's more, I'm in a dilemma right now, and only here is the safest. So, I sat down on the floor, spread out the map, and flipped through it.
One of them is a blueprint of the cave before they robbed it, and there are a lot of ideas written below, especially about the mechanism setting of the medicine corpse tomb. However, his writing was very sloppy, and I could barely recognize the words "glass top" and so on. It seems that they have really put a lot of thought into breaking the mechanism of the medicine corpse tomb. And then there's another one with a tooth and claw on it.
"Ah, this guy can't be an abstract painter, it's all messy." I cursed and flipped the papers over, "Hey! ”
My eyes suddenly lit up, and it was actually an overlook of a tomb, and the main coffin room, the Seven Star Beidou and the like were all marked, and they could be seen at a glance. I also saw the thief hole I had just climbed, and even the fork was clearly marked.
So, I was anxious to find an opening to get out, but the passage was cut off in one place, and a word was written on the side: "Collapse".
The meaning is already clear, I want to go back to the ground through the robbery hole has been shattered, I look at it again, the most bizarre thing on this picture is that on the left side of the place where I am now standing, where there is no road to connect, there is actually a tomb drawing, and between this tomb road and the tomb is a dotted line, this tomb seems to be in another space.
I couldn't help but touch the wall behind me, "Is there a secret passage behind this wall?" ”
Generally speaking, if the mechanism is to be incorruptible for thousands of years, it must be fired with stone and mercury, and the trigger of the firing device must be a flat plate, and the walls are carved with inscriptions one by one, and if there is a secret door, one of them must be able to move, but this one must be located in a very difficult place to notice.
Following these lines, I bent down to look at the position of the stone wall and the floor, and sure enough, there was a very suspicious four-sided connecting stone slab. I pressed it, but it didn't respond, but it was loose, and when I pressed it again, it still didn't respond, so I was a little hairy, and I stood up and kicked it, and then I heard a "pop" sound.
"Oh no, it's a trap!" I secretly screamed badly,
At this moment, the floor under my feet suddenly emptied, and I was so defenseless that I didn't have time to react, and then I fell down.
It only took a second or two, and before I could figure out how to deal with the emergency, I sat down on the floor. At the same time, the miner's lamp in my hand also "snapped" and smashed on the ground, and the light went out, and I was suddenly plunged into darkness.
In this situation, this miner's lamp is as important as my life, if there is no light, in this dark ancient tomb, it is undoubtedly a dead end. I rushed over to get the miner's lamp.
The Dragon's Fist has the skill of listening to the sound and identifying the position, so even if the miner's lamp goes out the moment it hits the ground, I can still tell its position by the sound it makes. I acted quickly, and immediately touched the miner's lamp, but when I touched the fallen battery, it was a cold hand!
I screamed and pulled my hand back like an electric shock.
In an instant, I sensed that the owner of the hand must have died, for the cold and puffy skin did not feel a little life.
I suddenly remembered that I still had a windproof lighter on me, and I hurriedly opened a photo, only to see a corpse lying in that place, with a lot of holes in my stomach, and a lot of corpses came out of it.
Corpse cockroaches are common in ancient tombs, but these corpses are surprisingly large, one foot the size of my palm, glowing with cyan light, and from time to time a few small corpses crawl out of his mouth and eye holes.
I felt sick to the fact that this man had been dead for a week, and that he was probably a victim of the previous grave robbery procession. From where he died, he must have triggered the mechanism, which is why he died here. When I thought of this, I hurriedly found the battery with the lighter, and put it in the miner's lamp, but it turned on again.
I breathed a sigh of relief, and with the light, at least I wouldn't be half scared to death by the corpses that came out of the nooks. I looked around, and the place was a square cellar, surrounded by irregular stone walls, with many holes like exhaust holes, and I didn't know where it went, and from time to time some cool breeze blew from those holes.
I immediately examined the body, a middle-aged man, about 40 years old, who had been torn in the abdomen, apparently fatally wounded. I continued to touch again, and on his neck, I found a dog tag with his name and number engraved on it, presumably his number.
Generally, the people who wear this kind of dog tag are in the army. But there are rules in the army, and there is no possibility for a soldier to be a grave robber. Unless, like Wang Mian, he fell into the grass after being discharged from the army. In addition, there is also a possibility that these guys are from a secret unit and have a management system similar to that of the army. I immediately thought of the group of red-topped Tufuzi, and it seemed that they were the only ones who had the ability to come here.
I put his dog tags in my pocket and planned to study them myself when I went out.
The architectural style here is very similar to the ancient tombs of the Han Dynasty, and it is a bit like a temporary escape route, which I think may have been left by the craftsmen who built the tombs.
The Han Dynasty inherited the Qin system, and in many ways, there are traces of imitation of the Qin Dynasty. For example, Qin Shi Huang repaired the imperial mausoleum for himself, and it took 39 years to repair it until Qin II, and the construction of the imperial mausoleum cost a lot of manpower, material resources, and financial resources. It is said that more than 700,000 manpower was collected for the construction of the imperial tomb. And when the imperial tomb was in retreat, tens of thousands of people were buried alive at once. Fortunately, Qin II died, and later Liu Bang established the Han Dynasty, which was on par with his idol Qin Shi Huang in all aspects. Although Liu Bang realized that the construction of the imperial tomb was a huge cost to the country, he finally built a magnificent Changling Tomb for himself. At that time, if you participated in the construction of the nobles' tombs, it was basically equivalent to death, and in the end, you were either poisoned or buried alive for the sake of secrecy. But the wisdom of the working people cannot be ignored, and most craftsmen will leave themselves a secret passage so that they can escape.
I swept it with the lamp, and sure enough, there was a very narrow door on the wall on one side, but this door was still a little high from the ground, and there was a wooden ladder underneath, which was rotten, and I estimated the height, and I could not have jumped on it, and then I saw a face suddenly peeking out of the passage.
When I saw it, I couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Wang Mian! It's me! ”
The king was startled and saw me, but instead of showing joy, he almost fell out of the passage as if he had seen something terrible.
I was wondering, Wang Mian suddenly took out a gun, the muzzle of the gun pointed directly at me, I couldn't see it, and shouted: "It's me, Wang Mian!" What the are you doing? ”
But Wang Mian didn't seem to hear it, so he opened fire directly.
The shot rang out in the hole in the ground, the bullet almost touching my ear, and I don't know what hit behind me, and a foul of foul stuff splashed on the back of my head. I turned around sharply and saw several large corpses lying on the wall, a few of them lying on their backs with murderous vigour. Several of them had climbed to the ceiling above my head, only a dozen centimeters from my head.
I was just about to take a few steps back and move away from these big bugs, when suddenly, two wall bugs flew like springs and came to me almost all at once. At the same time, there were two loud bangs, and two bullets flew over my head, blasting the two bugs in the air.
I just wanted to praise Wang Mian, this guy's marksmanship is really much more powerful than Lao Xuan. At this time, I heard Wang Mian shouting: "I'm running out of bullets, what are you still standing stupidly for, run!" ”
"Hey, okay!" With Wang Mian as a backer, I am much more down-to-earth, and I will run when I turn around.
Wang Mian put another shot, it is estimated that another one was exploded, I have reached the root of the wall at this time, Wang Mian stretched out his hand, I jumped and grabbed his hand, fortunately this stone wall is very rough, my feet have a place to focus, Wang Mian only pulled me up. Before I could stand firmly, Wang Mian's short gun stretched out from under my crotch, and it was another shot, and the bullet case jumped out directly and hit my crotch, I screamed, almost fainted, and scolded: "Your grandfather's, want to castrate me!" ”
"Shut up, which is more important, egg or life? Of course, life matters! ”
I suddenly found that the miner's lamp was no longer in my hand, and I looked back and found that it had fallen underneath, and the light source was crawling all around the light source, large and small, a large and faint area, and I don't know where it crawled out.
"How many bullets do you have?"
Wang Mian touched his pocket, took out one, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, "There is also a glorious bullet." ”
Before the words could be finished, a corpse had already jumped onto the stone path and made a "creaking" sound at us.
Wang Mian is a person who has been a soldier in the end, and this adaptability has become muscle memory, so without saying a word, he directly used the wooden butt as a hammer, knocked the insect flat, and kicked it down. But this was not a long-term solution, and soon more insects crawled up, and we kicked and knocked, and a few of them crawled on top of us, and the barbed claws brought a piece of flesh at once.
"Let's run, there are so many that there is no way to stop it!"
"Run? Where to run? ”
I pointed to the back, "There must be an exit behind this, you see this tunnel, it is definitely used by tomb builders in ancient times to escape, as long as you run along this, you will definitely be able to get out." ”
", are you stupid to blow the lamp, let me tell you, I've walked all over this way, it's a maze at all!"
"Huh?" I was shocked.
But now in this situation, I can also think about it again, I saw that there were more and more insects, and shouted: "No matter, even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, it is better than feeding insects here!" ”
At this time, suddenly there was a "pop" on the ceiling, and another person fell from the secret door above, pressing on the insects.
The sudden impact made even the bugs retreat in fright.
The man scolded and stood up, "Damn, what kind of door is this, why is it still open?" ”
Then, he took a flashlight and suddenly shouted, "Damn! What the hell! How are there so many bugs! ”
"Who was I at the time, this wasn't the captain who touched gold, it was really a narrow road!" Wang Mian fell into the stone road of the well.
