Chapter 162: Signs
In a hidden cave somewhere, Xu Chen stared at the front with frightened eyes, looking at the skeleton, the white skeleton, that is, the man in black who had taken him captive.
He was just a skeleton, without a trace of flesh and blood, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, would he have believed that there really would be such a frightening and surprising thing in this world?
"See you this time?"
The skeleton smiled slightly, it was so weird, but Xu Chen could really see that he was laughing, smiling proudly and contemptuously.
"You, who are you?"
Xu Chen's voice trembled, his heart beat so fast that he even forgot the pain on his body.
"Huh!"
The skeleton's mouth opens and closes, and you can't imagine the horrible picture, "Who am I?" haha, you don't have to know this, you just need to know that you're going to die." ”
After speaking, he burst into a smug laugh again, "After waiting for a long time, I can finally suck a person's bone marrow again, it seems that I am not far from the seventh realm." ”
This sentence really surprised Xu Chen, he didn't expect that this guy in front of him was not even in the seventh realm, if he said so, his cultivation should be on par with the old man outside.
But why was he able to dodge the old man's attack so easily?
I don't know why, the skeleton seems to be able to see through people's hearts, the disdainful expression of the clothes, and the smoke and dust in the color of the eyes are constantly overflowing, like a different kind of tears, "The path of cultivation is very different, and the so-called realm is just a last resort for people to determine the level of cultivation." So, there is no comparison. ”
"You know, even if there is really a master of the Seven Realms here at this time, I am not afraid. ”
Xu Chen looked at the other party's confident smile, and his heart sank subconsciously, but his mouth was not forgiving at all, "Cut!"
Although it was just one word, it was obvious that the skeleton was very angry in the face of Xu Chen's disdain, "You don't believe it? Haha, okay, then I'll let you see, let you see how fragile your companions are, you know? Don't say that I make a move, even if I don't make a move, they will definitely not be able to leave here, they will stay in this natural tomb forever, they will become my food, they will become the fertilizer of Tianlong." ”
......
At this time, in another burial chamber, watching the bright red arm slowly stretch out, Xiao Leng had already raised the Xuantie heavy sword, ready to fight hard.
However, the sword did not come out, because when the arm with blood staggered out, everyone was stupid.
It was a fat body, and although his face was half-obscured by the scorching brilliance of the Darkiron Heavy Sword, they recognized the man at the same time, Pan An.
At this time, Pan An was also extremely surprised, although he was covered with wounds, and the blood soaked almost all his clothes, he still staggered towards the three people excitedly, but he fell directly to the ground before he ran two steps.
Xiao Leng hurriedly stepped forward to help, and at this time, he only heard Pan An's extremely faint voice coming out of his throat, "Ghost! It's a ghost!"
As he spoke, he raised his hand desperately, pointing to the coffin where he had just stumbled out.
Leng Xue also came to Pan An's side at this time, she put her hand on Pan An's pulse, which was quite weak, and she was afraid that she would die.
"So, what about the old man?"
Pan An swallowed desperately, and squeezed out a few words from his throat again, "He, he's dead! It's a ghost, it's a ghost!"
After saying that, he tried to breathe hard, and could no longer say a word.
At the same time, Xiao Leng slowly walked towards the exit of the coffin with the Xuantie heavy sword, he didn't dare to get too close, but slowly walked around an arc to the front of the coffin, and when he really saw the situation inside the coffin, he was instantly stunned.
It wasn't a coffin at all, and there were no corpses in it, it was an entrance, a stone staircase that sloped downward, leading straight into the darkness, the stone steps were neat and even, but there was a lot of viscous blood dripping on it, which was probably Pan An's.
Xiao Leng approached slowly, and he took a careful look at it with a flashlight, but he couldn't see the specific situation below.
"Leng Xue, come and take a look. ”
Hearing Xiao Leng's shout, Leng Xue slowly put Pan An on the ground, and then rushed to Xiao Leng's side, when he saw everything in front of him, he was also stunned.
At this time, he suddenly looked at Xiao Leng, and Xiao Leng was also looking at him, without affection, nor looking at each other and smiling, some were just afraid, Leng Xue understood what Xiao Leng meant by calling him.
The next moment, they ran to the other side of the coffin at the same time, they all gently stroked the bottom of the coffin, no one spoke for a while, the space they saw in the coffin did not exist outside the coffin.
"Why is that?"
Leng Xue looked down at the ground, her eyes were confused, "Is it distorted space?" or is it ......?"
"Oh!"
Her eyes suddenly lit up, she looked up at Xiao Leng and said, "Have you ever seen juggling? ”
didn't expect Leng Xue to ask such a question, Xiao Leng shook his head slowly, saying that he hadn't seen it.
Leng Xue squinted her eyes and nodded, "It should be, it should be, this should be the trick used by that juggler, but I don't know how he did it yet, as long as we can get out alive, I will definitely be able to find the answer." ”
At this time, I only heard Xiao Leng suddenly say with a little disappointment: "He, he's dead!"
Xiao Leng and Leng Xue walked to Pan An's side, and everyone's faces were written with helplessness and anger.
Pan An had already closed his eyes, he didn't breathe at all, he should have died of blood loss, his hand was just grasping his clothes, it was a sign of fear, I don't know what he encountered below.
Leng Xue bit her lip and was a little flustered, she slowly stood up and said, "Then what should we do now?"
Xiao Leng didn't answer, but asked with a little meaning, "You just said that this coffin is just a juggling trick, then, can you explain why they came to our bottom? They obviously left through another door, why did they appear under us?"
Leng Xue didn't understand what they were saying for a while, "I don't know either, I just feel like a little street juggling." ”
This ancient tomb is so strange, there are so many places that they can't understand, there are so many strange things that happen, at this time, they can't take the risk, but first sort out their thoughts.
Xiao Leng walked around the ground irritably, wanting to get the following situation from Pan An's mouth, but now that Pan An is also dead, if he goes recklessly at this time, the result will definitely be unpredictable.
For a while, Xiao Leng's head was about to explode.
At this moment, Xiao Leng suddenly pointed to a stone brick on the wall and said, "Look, this seems to be someone who left something to remember." ”
As he spoke, he walked there quickly, and Leng Xue hurriedly followed, it turned out that there was a stone brick on the wall that had been circled by a bloodstained pen, flat and long, and there was no specific clue, but, obviously, it was someone who did it on purpose.
A moment later, they found a marker from under the wall not far away, and compared it with the note on the wall, and it was from this marker.
"What does this rectangle represent? Is there anything special about this turn?"
As she spoke, Leng Xue stretched out her hand to touch the stone brick that was taller than her, but no matter how she touched and pushed, she didn't seem to have any reaction at all, that is, like other stone bricks, she was just circled.
Maybe it was because he didn't want to give up, maybe it was a dead horse as a live horse doctor, Leng Xue pushed around the piece again, and pushed every stone brick down, but in the end, there was no reaction.
However, just as Leng Xue bent down to retreat a certain stone brick, Xiao Leng suddenly opened his mouth wide, and looked down from the stone brick that was circled, which should be a symbol. He said to the other two, "I know, I know, look!"
As he spoke, he pointed to the wall, not just a single brick, "Look, from top to bottom, the first layer is a complete stone brick, the second layer is made up of two smaller pieces of artwork, and the third layer is a complete piece. ”
"What does that mean?"
Leng Xue looked at Xiao Leng and said suspiciously, "Aren't all walls built like this?"
She thinks Xiao Leng is a little crazy now.
However, Xiao Leng didn't pay attention to it, but continued: "Yes! That's right, but why are the next three layers made of two small pieces of splicing?"
If this question is placed in normal times, even Nie Yu himself will give a very simple answer, either because the workers at that time were not serious, or because they happened to be unable to find the whole stone brick when they were built here. Or, to put it more simply, the tomb was not built with such rigor in the first place.
