With the addition of people like Wang Meng, the pressure on our team has eased a bit. After all, more people are safer and more powerful.
I grabbed a few of them and asked them in detail what was going on here and why they were the only ones trapped here.
Wang Meng sighed softly, pointed to a place in the corner and said to us.
"We have killed all the monsters in this tomb, but when we passed through this tomb again, the Li family left a few of us here in order to survive."
As he spoke, he suddenly turned his head and stared at Li Ba beside me with angry eyes.
"It's all those old immortal things like your father and your grandfather who almost killed all of us here. Because we knew there were monsters here, but exposed a few of us in front of those monsters, just to Let us use a human life to fill the gap for them and find a way for them to survive."
Li Ba was startled by Wang Meng's eyes. He hid behind me with a shivering expression and cautiously stuck his head out.
"That's what my father and I did. It has nothing to do with me. Didn't I almost get killed by other monsters in front of me? Brother Meng, don't look at me like that. I'm really scared."
Seeing Li Ba's cowardly appearance, Wang Meng immediately lost all interest in him. He snorted coldly and turned his head away, no longer focusing on him.
I turned around and looked around the room. I didn't see any secret passages or mechanisms here just now. I don't know how the Li family members left this tomb.
After seeing my eyes, Wang Meng suddenly walked in front of me, tapped my shoulder and motioned for me to follow him.
The two of them came to the corner, and Wang Meng patted a wall and said to me.
"I heard that you are very good at cracking the traps in underground tombs, so look for it yourself. This is where they left."
Wang Meng stretched out his hand and drew an arc on the wall, encircling a large area for me. Then he pointed to the other end.
"At that time, we were dealing with a few monsters over there. I clearly saw the people from the Li family coming here, opening a door, and then getting in. After dealing with these monsters, we also came here to find the door. , but found nothing. Originally, we had planned to retreat and admit defeat, and left from here. Unexpectedly, there was a sound outside. We thought it was another monster, so we each lurked on the roof, preparing to launch a sneak attack."
Wang Meng turned back and looked at me with a hint of apology in his eyes.
"Sorry, we were all frightened in that situation, so no one took a closer look at who the person was and attacked you directly."
I shook my head and didn't take it to heart. The fact that they were able to save their lives in such a dark, damp and cold underground cave was enough to prove that these people were really capable.
Moreover, anything could happen in this dark underground. They chose to protect themselves immediately. Is there any problem?
After I briefly communicated the situation with them, I immediately focused my attention on the wall that Wang Meng pointed out for me.
The wall was calm, and there were no traces on it. I walked around the wall, but I never found any traces of artificial carvings or hidden mechanisms.
I kept rotating around the wall in confusion, carefully observing every corner. After a few of them saw my movements, they stayed silently on the other side, quietly no longer disturbing my observation work.
I wandered around the edge of the wall for nearly half an hour, but never found the so-called mechanism. In the end, I had no choice but to look up and see Wang Meng again.
"Are you sure? Did you read it correctly?"
As I said that, I started to circle around the wall and follow the rock wall in a counter-clockwise direction to the left, preparing to circle around the tomb to see if there were any traces on other parts of the wall.
I suspect in my heart that maybe under the circumstances at that time, they lost their composure for a moment when dealing with the monster, so they might have made a mistake in judging the direction.
I believe that the departure of the Li family they saw was not an illusion, but there was a problem with the location, so they had to look for traces elsewhere.
After hearing what I said, Wang Meng unconsciously rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought. Several of his men also began to scratch their heads, thinking about the memories of that time, trying to find clues to point the way for me.
And I walked around the edge of the wall in a counter-clockwise direction, carefully observing the marks on the wall, trying to find clues to the feasibility.
Suddenly, I couldn't help but stop. Because in the corner on the east side, I suddenly found a mark that had been cut with a knife. To be precise, there is a neat scratch on the top of the wall, about one meter high from the ground.
At first glance, this scratch was a scratch that had just been scratched on the wall. There was not even a trace of dust inside. The scratch was extremely straight at this time and was particularly conspicuous above the wall.
I immediately walked here and carefully groped around the wall, constantly observing the scratches about one meter long in confusion, trying to figure out why someone would tamper here at that time.
After seeing my actions, Wang Meng and the others also came to my side and followed me to observe the marks on the wall.
"We did not get this down. We were far away from the wall at the time, and no one hacked the wall with a sword."
Wang Meng looked at the wall and explained to me their whereabouts at that time.
"And if you look at the scratches on the wall, it took a lot of effort to carve them here one by one. You can see that the entire straight line is not consistent to the end, but there are some breaks in the middle. , even the straight line is not completely straight, someone should have used great efforts to carve it here."
Wang Meng said, pointing to the men behind him.
"But at that time, all our attention and energy were focused on those monsters. We were all fighting monsters. No one came close to the wall, and no one carved any marks on the wall, so this It should be the group of people from the Li family who stayed."
I nodded, thinking that the scratch on the wall must be a very important clue, but until now I haven't been able to find out what this thing was carved for.
In order to avoid omissions, I took a few of them around the tomb again, carefully searching every corner above the wall, trying to find other traces.
But this time, we found nothing. There were no traces around the edges of other walls here. All of our eyes were fixed on that long scratch.
"It seems like the problem lies here."
None of us moved, but we all crowded in front of the wall, carefully observing the scratches here.
At the same time, I also looked back at the location that Wang Meng pointed out to me just now, which was the wall where he said the Li family opened the door.
The two walls are opposite, or it can be said that the two walls are completely opposite. The walls are extremely smooth, and there are no other traces.
Their position happened to be directly opposite, which made me wonder why the position above the wall was so symmetrical.
I took a breath, quickly walked to the smooth wall that Wang Meng pointed out to me, and reached out my hand to explore it carefully.
At this time, I vaguely felt that something was not right, because the touch of this wall was too smooth, or it could be said that this wall was completely different from the other rough stone walls around it.
The wall here is flat, with traces of artificial carving and polishing on the surface, and it is self-contained and can be completely described as a huge flat stone brick.
I walked to the place where the knife mark was carved and carefully looked around. However, when I was looking carefully at the wall. Suddenly there was a cry of surprise from behind me, and then Wang Meng and the others quickly raised their daggers and placed them behind us.
"Be careful, we two will deal with those guys."
I was stunned and looked behind me. We saw clouds of white mist vaguely appearing in the air. These fogs obscured our sight, and vaguely, there seemed to be vague figures approaching in our direction in the mist.
I took a breath of doubt and immediately told them not to move. I watched the approaching figures carefully and shouted at them.
"Excuse me, who are you?"
However, these figures are still approaching us without making any sound, as if they are gradually approaching us quietly.
I couldn't help but raise my voice and continue to question these things, but still got no response from them.
At this time, these dark figures were almost approaching us. Wang Meng could no longer suppress it and shouted at the people under his hands.
The members of their entire group quickly mobilized and immediately rushed towards the black figures. However, the moment their blades struck these black figures, their eyes quickly condensed, and a few traces of light were revealed between their brows. Confuse.
However, the next second, one of them was suddenly pierced through the chest by a black claw from the fog. The person screamed, and the next second was dragged into the fog and disappeared.
"Come back quickly, don't go there."
The visibility here is really bad. If we continue to be enemies with these things, we will not get any benefits, and we may lose more people. The best way now is to observe and then think of ways to act.
