Gu Aba said in a panic: "Okay, seems like I bumped into something unclean?"
"Dirty things!?" I said in surprise.
"No way, did Miss Huai just come out from there?" Fatty Yu asked doubtfully, "Don't you guys fool me?"
"Ah! Believe it or not!" Xue Gang gasped and said: "We were putting things in the ear room, and suddenly we saw a black shadow flashing outside, so we immediately chased it out to see, but it was already gone outside. Ying, when we went back, the black shadow flashed out again, do you think we encountered something unclean?"
"Don't jump to conclusions too quickly. Let's discuss with Miss Huai where she is going." I suggested.
"Okay!" Xue Gang nodded, "I have to tell the lady right away."
Just as they stood up to leave, I suddenly turned around. There was a trace of air on my cheek, my bangs were fluttering slightly, but I didn't see anything.
Fatty Yu shouted from the front: "Li Rui! Please hurry up and don't fall behind."
I responded and quickly followed. I had just caught up with Fatty Yu in front of me, and in the blink of an eye something seemed to be floating gently behind me. I was about to look back, when suddenly Xue Gang ran back from the front and said in panic: "It's flooded, run quickly!" "
"A flood of water?" I asked in surprise, "Speak slowly, what's wrong?"
"Oh, I don't care, you have to look at yourself." After saying that, Xue Gang left us and ran out.
"Tch, who are you? He's not a good bird at first glance." Fatty Yu mocked.
"How could there be floods in the tomb?" I asked puzzledly, "Did it touch some mechanism?"
"I'm sure that's what happened. Don't look at it. These people are all money-grubbers. They must be money-obsessed and have come across some kind of secret secret." Fatty Yu said sarcastically.
I hurried forward and saw a huge stone statue of nine pythons attacking a tiger located in the center of a spacious tomb. Under the stone statue was a circular reservoir with a wall of about one meter high and it was already overflowing. Come.
I looked up and saw water pouring out of the mouths of the nine giant pythons. Each snake's mouth was the size of three or five human heads. The water jets suddenly spurted out with great force.
"Isn't Xue Gang too timid? What's there to be afraid of?" Fatty Yu said disapprovingly, "After a long time, it turned out to be a fountain?"
"You kid, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand the fountain. This python was also a symbol of power in ancient times, just like our Central Plains Dynasty. The ministers had python embroidery on their court clothes, which is called a python robe. Look at the shape of the nine pythons attacking the tiger, which represents It turns out that the owner of this tomb is not only powerful, but he is also likely to be a military commander who fought on the battlefield."
"Really?" Fatty Yu said excitedly, "The relationship is great. It seems like we can make a lot of money this time."
I always felt that something was wrong. When I looked carefully, I discovered that each python's head was inlaid with a red gem as big as the mouth of a bowl, and the gem on one of the python's heads was missing.
"No!" I suddenly realized, "Damn it, they must have taken a fancy to the ruby on the python's head, which triggered the mechanism."
"Ruby?" Before Fatty Yu could react, I pushed him and said, "If I guessed correctly, the bottom of this pool should be empty. The two brothers from the Gu family must have been washed down by the current."
"Ah, what do you care about them?" Fatty Yu said indifferently, "They are seeking their own death, who can be blamed?"
I glanced at him sideways and sneered: "You thought there would be two less people to share the spoils with, right?"
"Hey, Li Rui, do you know how to chat?" Fatty Yu asked anxiously, "It sounds like I am a snobbery, Fatty. Let me tell you, I have a good heart. When I was in Panjiayuan, I often helped Grandma crosses the road.”
"Okay, okay, I don't have time to listen to your nonsense." With that, I went into the water to save people. Just as I was about to take off my coat, a figure suddenly rushed out from behind, jumped up to the wall of the pool with a vigorous step, and then lightly jumped onto the pool wall. After a vertical movement, he landed firmly on the stone tiger.
"Miss Huai?!" Fatty Yu said in surprise.
"This place will be flooded soon." Huai Rujin reminded, "If you don't want to become a drowned rat, go out quickly."
"Miss Huai, who do you think I am, Fatty Yu? Am I the kind of person who will abandon you?" Fatty Yu's eyes straightened up as soon as he saw Huai Rujin, and as he spoke, he spoke like a stroke of genius. He jumped up and jumped up steadily.
"Today, Fatty Master is going to clean up these bugs like you and make you scream!" Fatty Yu took out an engineering shovel from his backpack and slammed it on the python's head.
Huairu Jin rolled his eyes at him and said coldly: "Stop knocking. Even if you break the rock outside, there is still a ceramic tube made of kaolin clay inside. You can't break it if you knock like this."
Fatty Yu thought that he would be laughed at if he failed to show off. He was annoyed for a while, then he thought about it and said, "There is a way! Can't we just stop it's mouth?"
"Fat man, are you a pig?" I sneered, "Get down quickly, don't do anything wrong."
I said to Huai Rujin: "This water will probably flood the entire tomb soon. The two brothers from the Gu family have not been seen since they came in. They probably rushed into the pool. It is more important to save people first." .”
Huai Rujin nodded and said: "Your analysis just now was correct. I have already seen other tombs. This should not be the location of the real dragon. The real cave may be under this pool."
"In that case, what are you waiting for?" Fatty Yu asked anxiously.
I thought to myself, "This little girl is really good at thinking of everything in front of me." I immediately covered my mouth and nose and jumped into the water. At first, Fatty Yu saw the water surface bubbling, then it calmed down and there was no movement. I was afraid that something unknown would attack me under the water, which was no joke. I immediately shouted several times, but no one answered.
At this time, blood seeped out of the water, and then a body emerged. Fatty Yu took a closer look and shouted, "Isn't this Gu Ali!"
I popped my head out of the water and yelled, "Don't touch him!"
Huai Rujin quickly reached out and said: "Hold on to me, come up quickly!"
But I shook my head and said: "There are countless evil maggots dormant on the wall of this pool. The man below has been burrowed into his internal organs by the evil maggots. There is no way he can be saved. You'd better not touch him. Be careful of those The way of evil maggots.”
Huai Rujin hesitated and said, "Since the water is not clean, you'd better come up."
"What are you afraid of?" I said, "Look, this water will definitely flood the tomb. If you don't jump now, you will still have to jump then."
Fatty Yu said anxiously: "I'm not afraid of anything, but are you trying to harm me on purpose? There are clearly poisonous insects down there, so why should we go and die?"
He was cowering when Huai Rujin suddenly jumped into the water. Fatty Yu looked at the water in surprise, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and cursed: "Your mother, who are these people? Don't care, I will fight with you today!" After saying that, he closed his eyes and jumped. Go down.
I took out a handful of prepared paper bags underwater and opened them in the water. The paper bags contained some red powder that dissolved quickly in the water. This powder was passed down from my grandfather. He would always have it ready when fighting. It is said to be able to restrain hundreds of insects.
I swam around in the water to dissolve the powder evenly. After a while, I saw that the evil maggots on the wall of the pool were all writhing desperately. After a while, they all hardened and fell down. It won't move either.
There is a stone door deep in the pool wall, but it has been opened. We passed through it, and after passing through a long and short horizontal passage, we came to a pool similar to the one before, and then floated up.
As soon as they landed, Fatty Yu asked, "Li Rui, what kind of treasure did you use just now? Why did all those maggots belch?"
"Why do you ask so many questions?" I waved my hand indifferently, "Leave me alone."
Huai Rujin looked around the tomb in front of him and said: "The shape of this tomb is basically the same as the one outside. Except that there is no stone statue of nine pythons attacking tigers, it is almost an original copy."
"Look!"
Huai Rujin looked at me alertly. I raised my head and stared at the top of the tomb. She immediately looked along my line of sight and saw four long chains hanging from the top, and a sarcophagus hanging below the chains. . Huai Rujin said in surprise: "The iron rope hanging coffin."
"Iron chain hanging coffin? What do you mean?" Fatty Yu asked doubtfully, "Li Rui, why do I think it looks a bit like the coffin in the Yinshan Han Tomb. But that one was only tied with iron chains, and this one was just hung. .”
"This is a very rare burial method. I have only seen it once before in a zombie tomb in the late Qing Dynasty." Huai Rujin said.
"Zombie Tomb? You mean there are zombies in it?"
"This is not necessarily true. If the person lying inside has already become a stiff before entering, this method is probably used to isolate the uniformed zombies from moisture and prevent intrusion and accidents. If the person inside has not become a stiff , the purpose of doing this is probably because there is a problem with the feng shui of this place, the humidity is too high, and the coffin is hoisted to prevent future changes." I said.
Huai Rujin looked at me in surprise and said with admiration: "He is indeed a man who has seen the world, and what he said is absolutely right."
"Thank you, Miss Huai. I am not as knowledgeable as you. In fact, I have never seen this kind of burial method. It was just a mistake."
"Hey, you two, stop chatting here and talk about what to do next?" Fatty Yu asked anxiously.
"Why are you so anxious?" I looked at the walls around the tomb and said, "The chain should be raised with a mechanism. Let's look for it and we should find it soon."
Fatty Yu touched the wall up and down for a long time, but he didn't see even a special brick. He said in frustration: "Oh, I'm so angry. Is it possible that this coffin can fly up on its own?"
I also found nothing and wondered: "No way, there is no agency control to get the coffin up. How did people do it at that time?" I looked at Huai Rujin expectantly, and what was waiting for him was also helpless. Shake his head.
"What the hell." I took a breath and thought: "If the mechanism is not here, could it be underwater? If the real dragon is hidden here, it shouldn't be so easy to expose the mechanism, right?"
Thinking of this, I wanted to look into the pool. Just as I poked my head out, my eyes caught a glimpse of the water. The hanging coffin was located above the water, so I could see its reflection.
I took a step back suddenly, really shocked. I saw a human head sticking out of the reflection of the coffin, looking down. And this shocking glimpse made me even more surprised, and I thought to myself: "Lin Xiaoyu?"
I immediately looked up and saw no one on the hanging coffin, "Is it because I'm dazzled, but why do you look so much like Lin Xiaoyu?"
Huai Rujin seemed to see some clues and asked, "What's wrong? What did you see?"
I calmed down for a moment, then breathed out and said, "Um... I just wanted to see if the trap was in the pool. The ground was wet and slippery when I came up."
Huai Rujin glanced at me and didn't ask any more questions, but unexpectedly she also looked up. I was quite surprised by her move and thought to myself: "This Huai Rujin's observation is so sharp. How can she see it?"
