"Everyone, be careful, there is someone in front of you!" Chen Tao lowered his voice and stared straight ahead with squinted eyes.
His sight passed through the secret passage, and in the darkness ahead, there was an upright black shadow shaking.
"Where is there anyone? Why don't I see anything?" Ye Rong, the fake Uncle Long dressed up as a man, looked forward for a long time, but could not see anything.
"I don't know how to explain this to you. Anyway, my eyes can see farther than ordinary people. There is something standing in the secret passage in front of me. It looks like a person!"
The sudden appearance of a person in this dark secret passage is really weird. Several people in front raised their weapons.
The secret passage is ventilated, and the light from the torch is fairly clear here. After walking a few meters forward, everyone saw a black figure appear in the darkness ahead.
The black figure looked like a human being, somewhat strong, standing in the darkness in front of him with an extremely strange posture.
A gust of wind blew by, and the figure made a series of strange whining sounds, which sounded a bit scary.
"It seems like he's a dead man..." Chen Tao grabbed the torch in his hand, put his other hand on the submachine gun at his waist, and bravely walked towards the black figure.
When he finally saw the black figure clearly, he was stunned.
That was really a dead person, and a mummy that had been dead for who knows how many years.
The corpse was upright and wrapped in a wide cloth robe. Only a dry and black skull head was exposed. The skin and flesh had been dehydrated and shriveled, showing a strange yellow and purple color under the light of the torch.
What is horrifying is that the corpse's feet are standing on the ground in a very strange posture, two withered arms are hanging behind it, the face is extremely ferocious, and a rusty spear directly penetrates the chest cavity from its abdomen. , pierced from his mouth to the top of the stone.
This man seemed to have been directly nailed to death in the secret passage. He hung like dried bacon in the dark secret passage for who knows how many years. His body slowly slipped from the spear, and finally turned into what he is now. An extremely weird posture, shocking.
Facing a mummy with such a weird death state, everyone's expressions were a bit ugly.
"Is there any mechanism in here?" Haozi looked at the spear that penetrated the body and illuminated the surrounding area with a torch, as if he wanted to find out the origin of the spear.
Balohad shook his head, "As far as I know, there is no mechanism here. The reason for this man's death was not the mechanism, but that he was killed by someone!"
Balohad used the tip of the knife to open the clothes of the mummy, revealing a broken spear handle underneath.
Haozi knocked it with the butt of his gun, and the spear handle made a clanking sound of metal. The mummy stuck on it suddenly fell down and turned into a pile of broken bones on the ground. Only the broken spear that had been pierced into the top of the stone was still humming and vibrating.
"Holy crap, who can break such a thick metal spear handle?" Haozi exclaimed, and then pointed the torch at the top of the stone.
I saw that the broken spear was deeply pierced into the stone slab above the head, and the spearhead was more than half buried. The surrounding stone slabs were full of cracks, spreading radially around, as if the entire stone slab was broken.
"Is this... still a human?" Chen Tao couldn't help but say in surprise.
How much strength does it take to break such a thick metal spear shaft and stare a person alive on the top of a stone?
Looking at the broken spear that was still shaking slightly, a person suddenly appeared in Chen Tao's mind.
Yang Lixuan......
Growing up so big, among all the people Chen Tao has ever met, he is probably the only one who can do it.
Not only is he frighteningly strong, but the two short spears on his back are so sharp that there is almost nothing they can't cut.
Could it be possible that that weirdo Yang Lixuan has also been here?
Judging from the age of the mummy, I don't know how long it has been hanging here. It can be weathered to pieces and break when touched. It must have been hundreds or thousands of years at least.
Although Yang Lixuan is a weird person, he is very young. He cannot be over thirty years old no matter what, and there is no way it could be him.
No one knows how that person died here, or who was nailed to the wall with strange force.
Chen Tao tried to pull out the broken spear. Even though he exhausted all his strength, the broken spear still didn't move at all.
"I really don't know what kind of monster can do such a thing!" Ye Rong looked at the spear. Her voice once again changed to the same as Uncle Long's. Chen Tao was in a trance when he heard it, almost thinking that there was someone standing next to him. That’s the real Uncle Long.
"Why, little brother, when you see your sister like this, are you crying in her arms?" Ye Rong noticed Chen Tao's gaze and smiled strangely at him. She stood up and didn't know what she was doing. How to get airport breasts.
"Don't be disgusted with me!" Chen Tao rolled his eyes at Ye Rong. Compared with Ye Ling'er, Ye Rong was simply a monster. I really don’t know how the head of the Ye family was born. The personality gap between the two sisters is so different.
Ye Ling'er waved her fist on the side and glared at Chen Tao fiercely, her eyes full of warning.
He ignored the big-headed sisters, put away his short knife and stepped over the pile of broken bones on the ground.
Even now, Chen Tao still thinks about what they are about to face from the perspective of ordinary people.
But what if what they are facing is not a human being at all?
The strange dead body cast a shadow over everyone's hearts. Only Balohard led the way with complicated eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
They never encountered mummies with strange dead looks on the road after that. Under the leadership of Balohard, everyone quickly reached the end of the secret passage.
Unexpectedly, the exit of the secret passage was on an open stone platform.
Chen Tao stuck his head out and crawled out of the secret passage, holding a torch to look around.
It appears to be a large bedroom, surrounded by painted stone walls and even some decorative reliefs. There seemed to be several huge pillars embedded in the four corners of the wall. I didn't know what kind of material they were made of, and they were carved with exquisite patterns. There were lampstands protruding from every wall, with exquisite oil lamps placed on them. When the light from the torches shone through, the lampstands shone brightly and turned out to be gold.
The sun outside seemed to be rising soon, and a faint light and sandy air filtered in from the tall windows. There is a raised altar in the niche, there is a stone box for baptism, and there is even a bath and toilet.
Chen Tao jumped down from the stone platform. There was a layer of soft sand on the ground. There was a stone slab in the center of the stone platform behind him that was pushed out from the bottom by Balohad. Others were coming out from below one after another. climb.
Looking at the shape of the stone platform, Chen Tao realized that the so-called stone platform was actually a bed, which looked a bit similar to the kang in a northerner's home.
There are several exquisite stone tables placed on one side of the bedroom. The things on them have disappeared. There are also a few chairs on the other side. The legs of the chairs are carved into the shape of mutton legs. The armrests are golden, as if they are plated with a layer of gold skin. .
"Let me go, is this the rich man's bedroom?" Haozi poked his head out of the secret passage. Before he came out, his eyes were already straight.
Chen Tao extinguished the torch in his hand. He no longer needed this thing.
Everyone crawled out of the secret passage one after another, and Balohad resealed the exit. The group of people came out of the bedroom. As soon as they looked up, they saw a mummy lying on the ground in the corridor in front.
The clothes of the corpse were in tatters, but the patterns on them could still be made out.
"This should be the owner of this house..."
"When the big storm came, people had just finished their day's work. The disaster suddenly appeared, and no one could escape." Balohad explained: "Everyone was buried here, and even some people were buried here. The way they looked before they died."
Passing by another bedroom, Chen Tao saw a female mummy lying on the stone bed inside. Next to her were curled up two children. They had also been dried. The female corpse was holding the two children tightly in her hands. The child's head.
"Maybe he wanted to find his wife and children, but he was buried in the sand before he arrived..." Ye Rong said, looking at the mummy on the ground.
The group of people found the door of the house, but unfortunately the outside was blocked by collapsed boulders. In desperation, they had no choice but to return to the corridor and climb out from the window at the end.
Outside is a large garden, surrounded by remaining flower ponds and a pond. Many stone walls have collapsed, and boulders are scattered everywhere.
Chen Tao raised his eyes and looked around. Countless corpses appeared in his sight, all of which were people buried alive by the storm.
Some died by the pond, some were crushed under boulders, and more were lying on the ground, their bodies showing various weird postures. The sudden storm directly swallowed everyone's lives. Chen Tao looked at the mummies struggling to die, as if he could see the despair of the royal city in that sandstorm.
Everyone jumped out from the collapsed stone wall. The sky had turned white, and the clouds were stained with a layer of orange. Suddenly, a golden light penetrated the sea of clouds, and the sleeping Tatunaan King City was instantly covered with a layer of gold.
The sun shone through a huge stone statue in the distance. There were collapsed and dilapidated stone walls and houses everywhere. The street in front was empty. Corpses were lying in the middle of the road. The bones were shining in the sun. With a layer of milky white luster, everything looks particularly desolate and tragic. Only a few towering halls stand in the morning light, telling the story of the past glory of this ancient city.
"This is Tatunaan...a dead place."
The scene in front of him deeply stimulated Chen Tao's senses, and everyone fell silent at this moment.
Everyone carefully avoided the skeletons on the ground and used the cover of the remaining walls of the house to approach the highest of the halls.
"Ahead is the temple!"
